Volume 6 Agate Chapter 564: Death
Outside the city at sunset, the earth shook.
The scarlet blood rained down, corroding a large area. The stone main road, decorative stone pillars, and even the fields and hills on both sides were all turned into muddy pools of blood.
The dazzling light containing terrifying high temperature dried up the blood left behind pieces of scorched earth.
A pungent smell rose up from the outskirts of the city along with the billowing smoke.
The Lantern Guardian Squad and the Red Rose Squad were fighting in a group. Every participant in the battle was at least an elite transcendent of the middle sequence. Their every move caused indelible damage .
It is foreseeable that all life will be extinct in this area, and even within tens of kilometers, and the intense high-level pollution will linger for several years or even longer.
Sunset City will either become a dead city or turn into ruins.
The ignorant and pitiful ordinary people in the city are still immersed in the supreme joy of reproduction, and are completely unaware of all this.
Their fate seemed to have been decided as early as when Dolomite arrived.
when--
when--
It's like the sound of a huge bell, echoing throughout the world.
The flickering light is still dazzling even in the daytime.
Both sides have already become angry.
The five Archbishops of the Fiery Sun revealed the forms of mythical creatures one after another, transforming into goat-headed monsters of various shapes, covered with thick white hair and burning with flames at all times.
The leader, Terrence, is eight meters tall, with a sheep's head and a human body. The goat horns on his head look like two giant scimitars, and his face has two pairs of square horizontal pupils, with a fierce look in his eyes.
With his muscular right arm, he held high an equally huge hammer, and kept smashing a "meat mountain" that was much larger than him. Every blow would splash out countless blood and flesh, and the flames on the hammer would burn it into ashes.
when--
when--
The white light of the hammering covered an area of several kilometers in radius, and even the temperature rose to over fifty degrees. Heavy snow fell from the sky, which melted into water and then evaporated into fog.
Looking down, a white foggy area appeared on the right side of Sunset City which was shrouded in red fog.
In the fog.
Terrence was covered in blood, and the white wool was stained and filthy.
On the "mountain of flesh" in front of him, countless red eyes opened, and beneath the red eyes, countless mouths opened. They all screamed, cursed, and swore in Louisa's voice:
“Terrence, you are a piece of trash. Do you think you can kill me with the Aries Hammer? You are just a Sequence 4, and you think you can suppress a demigod? How ridiculous!!”
The meat mountain suddenly bulged up, and a pair of bright red butterfly wings bloomed behind it. Only a closer look could reveal that this pair of wings was actually bloody muscle tissue, with an irregular skeleton pattern underneath.
"die!!"
The meat mountain suddenly rose up, taking advantage of the gap between the sheep-headed monster's hammering and smashing, it split open the cavity and swallowed it with countless sawtooth "mouths"...

…
Snap!
The black queen piece captured the white bishop in an unrivaled manner, and the piece tilted and rolled, falling onto the black and white chessboard.
After a chuckle, Conrad's deep voice came:
"Chaos brews, but it won't last long."
The King of Slaughter crossed his fingers in white gloves, rested his elbows elegantly on the table, and looked at the other side through two strands of black hair with a pair of smiling eyes.
"Even if the power of the Rose Royal Family is being controlled by the Natural Cult, Terrence's influence on the situation is quite limited. Dolomi's ceremony is still going on, and He will complete the restoration of authority tonight..."
Chen Lun looked at the chessboard silently.
Immediately, under Conrad's puzzled gaze, he picked up his own White Queen, passed through the layers of black chess pieces and landed next to the Black King, then smiled and said:
“Checkmate.”
The gentleman in the black hat raised his head and looked at the King of Slaughter.
"You lose, Your Majesty."
Conrad looked at him quietly, with a slight smile on his face, and said jokingly:
"Jack, although I am not proficient in chess, you can't bully me because I don't know the rules... There are four chess pieces blocking your white queen. This is cheating."
"The White Queen has always been a rule-breaker. If she wants to win, what does the rule matter?"
Chen Lun also laughed.
Conrad looked at the White Queen beside his Black King with interest, then picked up the Black King chess piece and played with it in his palm.
"But, Jack, your white queen may not be able to checkmate this game, because the black king will not stay there stupidly."
Chen Lun shrugged and said meaningfully:
"But you can choose to leave the Black King to die."
Conrad raised his brow.
He chuckled and put the Black King back to his original place.
"interesting."
…
…
…
On an inconspicuous landscape tree in the sunset city.
The caterpillar nests between the branches are already filled with eggs and densely packed white dots, which are actually crystals, and they have already corroded the core of the entire tree.
The caterpillars hanging upside down on the branches are turning into cocoons, like sparkling diamonds growing from the trees.
The cocoons suddenly trembled, as if in pain, their bodies swelled and squirmed, as if something was trying to break out.
Not long.
A large number of cocoons cracked open, and soon gorgeous red butterflies broke out of the cocoons, flapping their wings and flying excitedly.
Soon, the number of butterflies increased, hundreds and thousands gathered together, and as if receiving some guidance, they flew towards the west of the city...
West side of sunset city.
A red fog wall at the other end of the chaotic battle.
Dozens of Wandering Knights hid in the dark. The leader, Captain of Sequence Five, frowned and looked frequently at a low building not far away.
"Captain Mahat, is it really okay to let the Chrysalis of the End do whatever it wants at a time like this?"
A knight asked worriedly.
Another knight beside him was somewhat indignant and complained quietly:
"The high-ranking officials of the royal family actually accepted them. Those people don't believe in Madam Rose at all. They are just a bunch of pseudo-believers!"
"Shut up, everyone. This is the order of His Majesty Mansfield. There is no need to question it. Just obey it."
Captain Mahat said in a deep voice.
He adjusted his armor and sighed inwardly.
The leader of the Chrysalis of the End, Elsi, was a Saint, so he could not speak out. The war had already started on the east side of Sunset City, and they wanted to help, but they did not dare to disobey orders and leave without permission.
However, Elsie's group held secret prayer ceremonies in the low building all day long during this period, as if praying for the favor of the Dark Lady.
But almost everyone knows that the god has never responded to his believers, and only the Chrysalis of the End is still trying tirelessly, again and again.
Mahat once heard Elsie angrily scolding her subordinates, saying that their faith was not devout enough, so they could not listen to the gospel of the Dark Lady...
The degree of their fanaticism even far exceeded everyone's belief in Lady Rose. The Wandering Knights privately felt that they were pitiful and funny.
But Mahat knew that it was precisely because Lady Dusk could not respond that the Chrysalis of the End was able to be recruited by the Rose Royal Family.
After all, it was rumored that the two gods were not on good terms with each other.
Suddenly, Mahat heard his men exclaiming:
"Look, there are a lot of butterflies flying over from Sunset City!"
The knight captain turned his head and was stunned.
All they saw were dense swarms of red butterflies, gathering into a cloud and swarming over… This divine sign, which seemed like a divine being of high rank in the flesh and blood, immediately made all the Wandering Knights solemn and afraid to move.
I watched the butterfly fly into the low building.
In the dark hall of the low-rise building, the red-robed members of the Chrysalis of the End formed a circle. A ritual array was carved on the ground with blood, and their faces were also covered with mysterious and bizarre patterns painted in blood.
He was still mumbling:
"Blind Lady of Pain, Fairy of the Stagnant Cup, Manipulator under the Apple Tree... Noble and Spiritual Lady of Dusk, Judelia, our humble servants ask for your response."
The short-haired woman in the lead, Elsie, suddenly shuddered all over.
Because He saw countless red butterflies flying in from the gaps in the doors and windows and gathering above the ritual formation.
"The Lord we believe in has sent down a divine oracle! Salute quickly!"
Elsie was so excited that she knelt on the ground and performed a very standard prayer ceremony.
The members of the End Chrysalis around also revealed fanatical expressions, kneeling down and crawling around the magic circle.
Elsie's voice trembled uncontrollably:
"Great Lady of the Darkness! Your Majesty Judelia! We, your humble servants, have finally heard your response! Elsie is extremely grateful, please give us guidance and mercy to help us solve the puzzle!!"
The red butterflies are dancing.
Immediately, under the shocked gazes of the believers and Elsie, the red butterflies formed pairs and began to mate.
Elsie's eyes first flashed with confusion, and then she seemed to understand something, and her expression gradually became ecstatic.
He immediately tore off his clothes and shouted:
"My God has sent down an oracle, welcoming the multiplication of joy!"
After saying that, he picked up a female member who was kneeling beside the magic circle and rushed out of the low building. The remaining members of the End Chrysalis around him also followed the leader. In the process, they all understood and followed the leader's example of taking off their clothes while shouting the name of the Dark Lady.
Amid the puzzled, bewildered, and shocked eyes of the Wandering Knights, it gradually went farther away until it disappeared into the high walls of red fog...
After a moment of silence, a knight finally came forward and asked:
" Captain, what is going on?"
Mahat opened his mouth, and after a long while, he answered in a deep voice:
"I don't know... But I guess, most likely Lady Dusk really responded to them, otherwise Her Majesty Elsie wouldn't be so excited."
"But the Chrysalis of the End left without permission. Shouldn't we stop him?"
Another knight said.
Mahat just felt a headache, and finally said angrily:
"Stop it? What can we do to stop it? Your Majesty Elsi is a high-ranking saint. Who can resist him when he is furious? Quickly report the situation to the royal family and see how to deal with it next!"
"Yes, Captain."
The wandering knights looked at each other in bewilderment and finally had to agree.
