The overwhelming, superior light on the seventh floor of Mountain Paradise broke out, and the purest and most flawless light swept out, transforming the sky into a glowing ocean and removing all sounds, colors, and feelings.

The extraordinarily bright moon surged toward the spherical magic circle down below overwhelmingly. At this moment, space and time did not seem to exist anymore, and the light of God’s Arrival was simply flowing unstoppably. The spherical circle and Lucien in it seemed to have been frozen in the decayed page of a history book.

Even Fernando, who was outside of the range of God’s Arrival, could only sense the things within one meter from him. Beyond it, there was nothing but the magnificent and divine brilliance in his eyes and the field of his spiritual power.

Right then, a silver moon rose in the vast holy light that purged everything in the world, dreamy and freezing.

After the silver moon appeared, God’s Arrival seemed to have been delayed briefly, and the spherical magic circle, as well as Lucien inside, were enlivened.

Pope Viken was not surprised at Alterna’s blockage. She was not the target of this “God’s Arrival”, which had been focused on the spherical magic circle, and she was only slightly affected. So, it was only reasonable that she helped to delay it briefly so that Lucien Evans would have an opportunity to escape.

It was a pity that she was a little bit late. Lucien Evans had reached the most critical moment to break into the demigod level, and he was inseparable from the spherical magic circle. He was destined to be killed by God’s Arrival.

Pope Viken was quite sorry about that too. He had never intended to kill Lucien Evans so easily. The road ahead was too perilous, and such an excellent explorer was inestimably valuable. If only the guy had been not so ambitious and adept at planning that he had to kill him.

The silver moon quickly dimmed, and even though the light of God’s Arrival was slightly delayed, it was about to reach above the spherical magic circle.

Suddenly, Lucien, who had been refreshed inside the spherical magic circle, raised his head and looked at the holy light thoughtfully.

Then, his lips curled into a gentle smile.

This is… Pope Viken could perceive what was inside the spherical magic circle through God’s Arrival. He was rather stunned that Lucien was neither frustrated nor desperate but was smiling at him as if he was bidding farewell. He suddenly had an ominous feeling.

Boom!

Lucien’s body that was in the white shirt and yellow waistcoat exploded entirely, like a watermelon that was thrown to the ground from ten thousand meters high!

Flesh and blood splashed out, and the light of God’s Arrival completely drowned the place!

Inside a secret chamber in Babel in the Atomic Universe…

A weirdly-shaped silver amulet, which looked like part of twisted intestines, released bright but not dazzling light in a long box that was fully embedded with gems. The feeling of exuberance and vitality immediately filled the room.

Natasha, who was guarding the place with her longsword in her hands, became solemn after seeing that. She grasped the Sword of Truth tightly, ready to chop any attack that followed!

The energy of the magic gems flowed into the silver amulet, and the other materials in the long box were dismembered and melted. The silver amulet lost its beautiful appearance and was reduced to a messy, bloody cluster that dissected and grew.

The internal organs grew out, the bones grew out, the muscles grew out, and so did the skin and the hair.

Natasha’s solemness was gone. She looked at the scene with a smile, not disgusted at all but scratching her chin with great interest. “So, the body that hasn’t taken shape is so hideous…”

Lucien’s naked body was finally full. His skin was clean, his muscles were tough and smooth, and he looked like a statue.

Then, he slowly opened his eyes. The glittering holy light seemed to be still lingering in his deep and dark eyes.

“God’s Arrival?” Natasha observed him up and down like a naughty boy and asked curiously.

The residues in Lucien’s eyes were gone, and he nodded softly. “Thankfully, my appendix was waiting for me at home. Otherwise, I couldn’t have avoided God’s Arrival even though the Silver Moon delayed it.”

Since the very beginning, Lucien had planned to dodge Pope Viken’s critical strike with self-explosion!

He was proud that he had an appendix!

“What does it feel to confront ‘God’s Arrival’? How terrible was it?” Natasha asked quickly. She was always interested and curious about battles.

Lucien’s lips twitched. “Do you want me to talk to you naked?”

“It’s not like you’ve never talked to me naked,” Natasha said, not fearing that her eyes would be blinded by the nudity at all. Of course, she also tossed the clothes that she prepared in advance to Lucien.

Then, she asked intentionally, “Where are your gears? They were not destroyed in the self-explosion or God’s Arrival, were they?”

She made fun of him because she knew very well that her husband was a miser in nature, and that his heart would’ve been broken if the few legendary items were lost.

Lucien put on his clothes and chuckled. “They’re kept by my teacher, of course!”

……

In the ocean of holy light, the spherical magic circle disassembled and melted quickly.

Fernando, who had been intentionally keeping away from God’s Arrival, simply cast a spell and opened a space-time gate, jumping toward his demiplane. The Will of Abyss, who was right next to the spherical magic circle, had no time to dodge it. Due to the influence of God’s Arrival, his eyes were broken and his arms were falling. Black and chaotic water was springing from the ground under his cries.

“He was not melted with the demigod circle?” Pope Viken was not surprised that Lucien blew himself up at all. As a legendary sorcerer in the past, he knew very well about the escape and resurrection methods of sorcerers. What was beyond his expectation was that Lucien Evans could’ve detonated himself so easily at the last moment without being affected by the spherical magic circle at all.

Had he avoided the blast and replaced his body with an alchemical item before that?

That would have suggested that he was not trying to break into the demigod level at all. Then, why was he doing all this?

Thinking about that, Pope Viken squinted. Not bothering the Will of Abyss and the Lord of Hell down below, he simply tore apart the space and returned to the corresponding location in the main material world.

The Lord of Hell realized the anomaly too. He burst out all his strength and drove the Will of Abyss, who hadn’t recovered from his wounds and was hit by God’s Arrival again, back into the abyss. Then, he also tore apart the space and returned.

The dim silver moon was long gone, and the sky of the World of Souls was gray again. However, a silver-haired man in a red shirt and a black coat slowly paced out of the woods and chuckled. “I didn’t even have a chance to make an entrance. How sad.”

……

Outside of Allyn, the white mist grew dense, covering the “natural views” that were no different from the real landscape as well as the cognitive world that looked like a vast cosmos. The only thing that could be clearly seen was the brilliant starlight from the sky.

It took Melmax twenty minutes to reach Allyn before he saw the thickening mist. Taking a deep breath, he raised his longsword and charged toward the City in the Sky. Douglas had to be stopped from reaching the demigod level!

Although he knew very well that it was barely possible for him to break the defense of Allyn without the help of a demigod, he had no choice except to charge at such a moment as a knight!

The longsword of the Holy Avenger passed the sky and hit the ivory mist. On the other side, Belkovsky, the brawny pontiff of the North Church, had flown over too. He was surrounded by holy light, with a pair of glorious wings that were purely made of godhood on his back. It was obvious that he had performed “God’s Grace”.

However, the moment he showed up, a green arrow that carried the air of the natural cycle traveled through space and reached before him, forcing him to drop the plan of attacking Allyn and focus his attention on dealing with this “Nature’s Punishment”.

In the high sky, the elven queen, who was wearing a refreshing, green dress, had decided to help her ally.

Dracula, the Night Dominator, and Danisos, the Dragon of Time and Luminosity, were both hiding in the dark without taking any action because they were in a dilemma. On one hand, they were happy to see Douglas’ advancement, but on the other hand, they were fearful about the future. Also, since the few legends of the Congress of Magic hadn’t taken action, they had to consider carefully whether or not they had advantages.

At this moment, the “starry sky” suddenly constricted toward Allyn, and all the stars fell like rain, presenting a brilliant and dreamy view.

Then, the dark night fell again. Not the slightest light could be perceived. Even the senses of top legends could only cover a dozen square kilometers around them.

In the pitch darkness, Melmax suddenly had a terrible feeling and retreated toward the Holy City without thinking. Belkovsky did the same.

In the meantime, Viken, who was still in the depths of the Dark Mountain Range with his pope robe and his holy crown, was staring at the inky sky gloomily.

At such a moment, how could he not realize what had happened?

Right when he was about to raise the platinum staff, on the horizon of the dark sky, a scorching sun suddenly leaped out, dyeing half of the sky vermilion!

……

“You stalled them for twenty minutes and wasted a ‘God’s Arrival’?” Natasha became rather confident after hearing Lucien’s unhurried introduction. “It seems that Viken and the Lord of Hell will miss the end of the show.”

Lucien chuckled. “The corresponding location after they leave the World of Souls is the Dark Mountain Range. It will take a lot of time for them to reach Allyn from there, unless they have deployed teleportation circles in advance. Otherwise, even a demigod will have to spend at least twenty minutes on the way. Also, Allyn is not as easy to locate as the artificial planets in the high sky. It will be barely possible for Viken to lock onto the City in the Sky from somewhere far away.”

“Hehe. Are you not scared that Viken and the Lord of Hell did set up teleportation circles in advance?” Natasha intentionally argued with him.

Lucien put on his waistcoat and smiled. “Why do you think Mr. Rhine never showed up?”

“Well…” Natasha thought of something else and suddenly asked, “If the Congress were faced with such a situation, what would you do?”

“Orbit strikes from the artificial planets, of course.” Lucien warmed his body. “However, the current orbit attacks cannot break through the defense of Allyn.”
