#490 - Chapter 479 Chaos
Roars echoed through the heavens and earth as the most intense clash occurred in the Land of Divinefall. Blood and fire became the underlying hues of this place. Mountains collapsed, and trees were utterly destroyed.
The Azure Sky Dragon danced wildly, each strike reaping the life of a BOSS.
The Undying Divine Phoenix soared in the sky, its boundless divine fire painting the surroundings into a golden world.
The entire Land of Divinefall was now like an erupting volcano. All the surrounding creatures were fleeing in terror, afraid that the Beast Army might suddenly turn around and harvest them all.
Not far from the Land of Divinefall, atop a mountain that wasn't particularly tall,
two figures stood, overlooking the distance from their high vantage point, their gazes ultimately fixed on the Land of Divinefall.
As the most dangerous forbidden area on the Lost Continent, the Land of Divinefall was not only home to a large number of BOSS creatures but also haunted by eerie entities.
Such a special place naturally had human powerhouses guarding it.
Although the eerie presence in the Land of Divinefall was not as active as in the Border Battlefield, as long as one didn't actively provoke them, they would hardly awaken.
But after all, they were eerie entities, and the two people responsible for guarding this place were naturally also pinnacle human experts.
One of them was Raymond, an Elementalist wearing a gray robe and holding a blue staff. He appeared calm and experienced, his white beard fluttering slightly in the wind.
The other was Garcia, a tall, muscular middle-aged man.
Both of them were Sequences, equally skilled in defense.
Raymond possessed astonishing magical power, capable of manipulating the elements between heaven and earth for his own use.
Garcia, on the other hand, was a meat shield-type class. As a Sky-Shield Warrior, his defense was naturally unquestionable. Even existences a stage higher than him might not be able to break through his defenses.
These two had always been stationed here.
After all, the defensive fortifications of the Land of Divinefall were far inferior to those of the Border Battlefield. In case of any emergencies, the two could immediately deploy defenses and delay until reinforcements arrived.
And over the years, the Land of Divinefall had been very peaceful, with very few people entering it.
Even if there were any real troubles, the two of them could handle it with their strength and quickly quell them.
Their professional qualities could be described as excellent, true workhorses.
Therefore, when they met other Sequences, they could boast a bit, saying that among so many chaotic places, the Land of Divinefall was the most peaceful, wasn't it?
But now, Raymond and Garcia, looking at the world-shaking Land of Divinefall, were a little flustered.
"This… he's just forcing his way through?!"
Garcia's eyes were about to pop out, his voice filled with disbelief.
They naturally knew about Jiang Han's invasion of the Land of Divinefall. Such a huge dragon entering so ostentatiously, if they hadn't noticed, they wouldn't deserve to be Sequences.
At first, they were quite puzzled about what Night Wanderer was trying to do by suddenly barging in like this.
Was he looking for something or some materials?
Or was he here to kill some special BOSS?
In short, they guessed all the possibilities they could think of.
The reason they didn't show up was partly due to their recognition of Jiang Han's strength. After all, someone who could kill a god, regardless of the method used, must have excellent personal qualities.
For others, the Land of Divinefall was an absolute forbidden area, but not for him.
Besides, even if there were any accidents, the two of them could join forces, which meant that three Sequences would be working together. There shouldn't be any existence in the current Lost Continent that could threaten them so much.
But Raymond and Garcia never expected such a situation!
"This kid…"
Even Raymond, known for his composure, couldn't help but twitch his lips. "Could it be that he wants to turn the entire Land of Divinefall upside down?"
"Looks like it," Garcia sighed. "I even think he's here today to flatten this place."
"That's probably not possible," Raymond frowned. "The Land of Divinefall is not that simple."
"Of course I know," Garcia said. "According to common sense, it's indeed impossible, but the problem is that this kid never plays by the rules!"
"Have you forgotten how the Border Battlefield was broken down to just one Supreme Battlefield?"
"This…"
Hearing this, Raymond couldn't help but fall into deep thought. That was so damn true!
"Damn it, everyone says that wherever this kid goes, things fall apart. Seeing it today, I've really learned something," Garcia exclaimed from the bottom of his heart. "Daring to push the Land of Divinefall, now that's a real hero."
"The problem now is… should we step forward to stop him?"
Raymond looked deeply at the Land of Divinefall, which was engulfed in divine fire, and worriedly said, "After all, we can still suppress the creatures on the periphery, but once those ghostly things in the core area revive, the situation will become serious."
"Furthermore, the Divine Tree is about to start the Ascension Plan. It's probably not appropriate for something to happen at this juncture."
"It's not appropriate," Garcia took a deep breath and then said, "But the problem now is, can this situation end simply?"
"How to end it? Even if we let him retreat now, I'm sure the core area will still be affected."
A hint of madness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice, "Instead of that, why not do something big!"
"What do you mean?" Raymond frowned.
"Just what it sounds like," Garcia licked his lips. "This Land of Divinefall is always a threat. You just said that the Divine Tree is about to start the Ascension Plan."
"When that happens, we'll definitely have to leave."
"Once the Land of Divinefall is in turmoil, the consequences are unimaginable."
"This place is different from the Borderlands. There are no natural barriers. Even if the Divine Tree wants to intervene, the effect will be greatly reduced."
"Don't you think now is a good opportunity? To eliminate future troubles."
"That way, we can leave without any worries."
"What if we fail?" Raymond still had concerns. "The human situation is already precarious now."
"It's precisely because it's precarious that we need to do something!" Garcia was very determined. "If things could continue smoothly, ghosts would take the initiative to provoke these things, but Raymond, have you ever thought about why the eerie entities suffer so much wherever this kid goes?"
Before Raymond could speak, Garcia continued, "Because he has the courage!"
"In addition to his own strength being indeed strong, this is also an important factor. He dares to take the initiative every time, which is why he has created one miracle after another that even we dare not imagine."
"I think, maybe when he killed the False God, he couldn't have been sitting still waiting for death."
"Indeed, that makes sense," Raymond couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Raymond, we've been stable for too long. We've been maintaining this precarious human world, but now, times have changed."
Garcia looked at the figure on the pure white Beast in the distance, his eyes flashing with brilliance: "At least, False Gods are not untouchable to humans."
"Then we should do something too."
"You're right," Raymond suddenly raised his head, and a hint of madness flashed in his originally calm pupils.
Rumble!
Around him, the elements were rioting, with electric light flashing, turning the surrounding rubble into dust.
Water vapor rose, quickly condensing into arrows.
Various elements gathered, collided, and then exploded.
The wind blew Raymond's beard and hair, and he stood on the mountain, like the master of this place.
Which of those who can reach the pinnacle of humanity are ordinary people, afraid of death?
When he was young, Raymond was also an unparalleled genius, overcoming obstacles all the way and quelling one riot after another.
"We have indeed been silent for too long."
"It's time to do something."
Raymond took a step and instantly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a trace of electric arc flickering.
"It seems that after being steady for so many years, you can't hold back anymore…"
Looking at Raymond's disappearing figure, Garcia chuckled dumbly.
However, it was understandable.
Because Garcia had the same mentality. Once influential figures disappeared from the continent, and very few people knew their identities.
For them, who were proud and arrogant, wasn't this a kind of torture?
And today, it was time to let loose.
As for the consequences of failure?
Garcia didn't think about it, and didn't want to think about it so much.
Someone had already sounded the horn of attack, so he would just follow along.
If the Lost Land really fell because of this, then it could only be said that it was destined.
They had had enough of guarding for so many years!
"Come!"
Garcia shouted loudly, and a huge shield quickly condensed in front of him, with patterns engraved on the shield surface.
And each of these patterns meant that he had killed an eerie creature whose strength had reached the Divine level.
Rumble!
At this time, Raymond had already charged into the Land of Divinefall.
He stood in mid-air, his beard and hair fluttering in the wind, and mysterious incantations were recited from his mouth.
Thunderbolts fell from the sky, each one extremely thick, and its destructive power was comparable to Little Luo's divine fire.
Although he was not good at attacking, a Sequence was a Sequence after all. Raymond showed extraordinary strength as soon as he made a move, bringing great threat to the creatures of the Land of Divinefall.
"Kill!"
Immediately afterwards, Garcia also charged into the battlefield.
Before he arrived, the shield in his hand had already been thrown out, turning into a stream of light, instantly passing through the battlefield.
Wherever it passed, all living beings were smashed into blood mist and exploded directly, until it was embedded in a huge, eerie BOSS, and then it stopped.
"Oh?"
Jiang Han was originally picking up things with great enthusiasm, and when he saw the two charging into the battlefield, he greeted them unhurriedly, "Are you two here to stock up too?"
Stock up?!
Hearing this, Raymond and Garcia almost twisted their noses in anger.
Look, was this the kind of thing a human would say?
Such a dangerous place, and you're here to stock up?
"Little friend's thinking is really… extraordinary!" Raymond didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only sigh.
As for Garcia, he didn't say a word, carrying his shield and rushing in headlong.
Damn it…
He knew that this kid's motives weren't that complicated.
Never mind, let's fight first!
Seeing this, Raymond didn't talk nonsense anymore, controlling various elements and bombarding wildly.
Boom boom boom!
With the addition of two Sequence-level powerhouses, the already one-sided battle became even easier.
Making the natives of the Land of Divinefall, who were already at a disadvantage, feel even more like it was adding insult to injury.
In a very short period of time, the Land of Divinefall was barren, and almost completely flattened.
……
And such a big commotion was naturally noticed by all forces.
"Isn't it… such a big commotion, what exactly happened to the Land of Divinefall?"
"Eerie riot? Did the creatures of the forbidden area rush out?"
"Could it be that even the two seniors didn't hold on?"
"Is the sky falling?"
The personnel of the agencies responsible for monitoring the Land of Divinefall were all panicked.
It had been many years since the Land of Divinefall had any movement, but this did not mean that it was completely safe there.
Anyone with a little strength knew that this was simply an inviolable forbidden area, and now, the largest forbidden area was suspected of rioting, how could people not be panicked.
Dragon Phoenix Empire.
In the imperial capital's council hall, Charles XXI sat in the main seat, and although he didn't say a word, judging from his fingers constantly tapping on the table, this emperor's mood was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.
Looking at the others, their expressions were solemn and somewhat anxious.
Because they were all waiting for news from the scouts.
Tap tap tap!
Sudden rapid footsteps sounded outside the hall.
Everyone immediately sat up straight and looked expectantly at the person who came.
"Speak, what is the situation in the Land of Divinefall now?" Charles XXI said in a deep voice.
"Reporting to Your Majesty."
The person who came was the commander-in-chief of the Royal Knights, also a Divine-level powerhouse, but even such a strong man was full of excitement at this moment, "It's Night Wanderer… Night Wanderer led the Beast Army and directly entered the Land of Divinefall, and a fierce battle broke out."
"Ah?"
"Night Wanderer, he just rushed in? Isn't this too rash?"
"A forbidden area!"
The hall was instantly in an uproar, and everyone's faces were filled with disbelief.
Even Charles XXI was dumbfounded. Night Wanderer hadn't been in the Royal Cemetery for long, how could he have rushed into the Land of Divinefall in the blink of an eye.
What efficiency!
"And then?"
But after all, he was the leader of an empire. Charles XXI suppressed his emotions and continued to ask, "What about the specific battle situation? What is the scale? Have you found out? Is it just a simple battle, or a massacre of BOSSes?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty."
The commander-in-chief of the Royal Knights said loudly, "Night Wanderer's move this time can be described as earth-shattering. It is already… a full-scale war. In my opinion, he wants to flatten the Land of Divinefall."
"Ah?!"
Charles XXI was shocked again, thinking that this was too rash?
Such a dangerous place as the Land of Divinefall, if not handled properly, could be a disaster for the entire human race!
Especially the Dragon Phoenix Empire, which would inevitably be the first to be affected, and it might be the beginning of the country's demise.
Charles XXI couldn't sit still and quickly asked, "What about the two Sequence adults? Are they not there?"
"Present," the Captain-President of the Royal Knights nodded.
"Then it shouldn't be that serious, that's good, that's good."
Charles XXI breathed a slight sigh of relief, "As long as they intervene, the disturbance should be quelled, we just need to…"
"Um…"
Before Charles XXI could finish speaking, he heard the Captain-President of the Royal Knights interrupt, "The two lords… they also charged in…"
"Ah?!!!!!!"
