Extraordinary Voyage
Chapter 1061 - 931: Their Own Moves and the "Captain of the Moon
Eastern Source Continent, at the foot of the "World Wall" mountains, a small inconspicuous place.
Crackle...
In the evening, in a small town ablaze with a raging fire, the sounds of wild laughter, screams of agony, pleas for mercy, women shrieking, and children crying filled the air.
A group of robust men, dressed like other townsfolk, wielding shotguns, axes, and ropes, broke into houses one by one, violently seizing all valuable items like food, money, and furs from the residents.
And they cruelly subjected them to every imaginable atrocity within the human imagination.
Although "plunder" happens almost everywhere in this world, and even plundering residents in the same community is not too unheard of.
But eerily enough, all the faces of these marauders bore the exact same excited expression, even the curves of their lips were uncannily identical.
Beyond the strangeness, it sent chills down one’s spine.
"Aren’t you the ones who love to show off in front of others? Hand it all over! Hahaha..."
"James, I’ve disliked you for a long time, go to hell and repent..."
"No, no, please spare me..."
In this dire situation, a "knight" riding a tall, majestic warhorse leisurely strolled through the burning streets.
This was not a human!
A lion-faced figure in golden armor, with scarlet skin, glowing with golden light all around, riding a gigantic flaming warhorse, breathing with the sound of thunder.
He rode slowly to the center of the town, spreading out his hands as large as shields.
He seemed to be extracting some kind of benefit from the air, and as the violence continued, the golden light around the knight shone ever brighter.
"Power, power, indeed, humans, such intelligent creatures, are the most delicious nourishment, oh~"
A few minutes later, the lion-faced knight immersed in his rapidly growing strength suddenly sensed something.
Looking up, he saw amid the flames of the town, two mysterious figures draped in wizard robes had appeared before him without him knowing when.
An oppressive voice suddenly echoed in his heart:
"Allocen? This time we’ve finally not come in vain, please come with us. I advise you not to resist; dying in vain now would be such a waste."
Allocen, ranked 52nd among the 72 Pillar Demon Gods.
Legends say that any human who meets the eyes of this demon god will see their own death in those flame-filled eyes, resulting in such a shock they go blind or even mad.
Moreover, this demon god has a "plunder" addiction and automatically influences those with weak wills around him to become accomplices.
This ability was fundamentally the cause of the disaster in the town.
Upon seeing the two, the lion-faced knight Allocen’s blood-red pupils slightly contracted.
Once he confirmed their identities, he showed no demon god’s pride, instantly turning into a streak of flame shooting up to the sky.
"Tch, wasting time!"
With a disdainful snort, the two wizards behind also shot up into the air, their speed surpassing Allocen, the demon god.
In fact.
The moment Allocen couldn’t resist revealing his strength and exposed his whereabouts, his fate was already sealed.
A mere demon god with the strength of a [Divine Creature] could never escape the grasps of the two "Crowned Wizards," [Deep Dark Living Flame] and [Cassimov’s Skull].
Previously.
Besides seizing the opportunity when the "Spiritual Origin" of the New Continent overflowed, capturing 25 demon gods who couldn’t regain their original strengths in one go.
In recent years, their progress in capturing "sacrifices" had been very slow.
The demon gods of the Lower Realm were all experts at concealing themselves.
Moreover, after Aiven broke the barrier of the "Mist Sea," exposing the Evil God Group’s operation to capture Lower Realm demon gods.
The remaining demon gods had all become like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow; even if their recovery rate was a bit slower, they wouldn’t risk exposure lightly.
Up to now, they were still far from reaching the minimum target of 42 set by the "Violence Angels."
Today, by leveraging the [Violence Authority] of "Violence Angels," they finally detected the activities of the path-related demon gods.
The two [Truth Embodiments], stronger than ordinary demigods, could not hold back from acting together; they had to complete their KPI before the second impact arrived!
Thus, this world started becoming somewhat incomprehensible.
Demon gods fleeing into the Material World were causing havoc everywhere to quickly regain strength, while the Evil God Group at the root of turmoil seemed to become the vanguard of maintaining world peace.
It’s simply bizarre...
But none of them noticed.
As the sun set, on the hillside outside this small town covered in golden wheat.
A farmer in overalls, with his beautiful wife with chestnut long hair, was enjoying a simple yet warm dinner sitting on the ridge of the field.
The gentle breeze made waves in the wheat, forming a picturesque pastoral scene starkly contrasting the hellish town.
However.
As the three "gods" departed, a vague human figure behind the farmer flickered and vanished suddenly.
He was a majestic giant holding a giant hammer in his right hand and a thunderball in his left, crowned with a conical diadem.
Anyone who has done even slight research on the Lower Realm would undoubtedly recognize him as "Milibali," the first-ranked and most powerful of the 72 Pillar Demon Gods, the ruler of the East.
Without much thought, it was obvious that accompanying him could only be "Astaroth," who held the dual identities of wife and sister, and ruled the South of the Lower Realm.
"Alas, just wanting to find a place to farm peacefully proves impossible; after dinner, we’ll have to move again."
Milibali stood up and clapped his hands.
"If I had my powers, I’d twist their heads off."
Astaroth, despite her gentle and virtuous appearance, was more violent than her husband.
In reality.
In the Lower Realm, Milibali governed the sun and thunder, while Astaroth managed revival, pleasure, and the birth of new life.
Even more unimaginable to normal people, their shared authority included something seemingly unrelated to demon gods—agriculture.
Just ten years ago, Angie and her team were the first to bring back seeds of high-yield crops from the "Broken Star Sea," such as breadfruit, rice, barley, and berries...
The subsequent large-scale development of the "Broken Star Sea" directly facilitated an unprecedented agricultural boom throughout the Material World.
This prosperity allowed these two "Supreme Four Pillars" to receive enormous power feedback without wreaking havoc like other demon gods. Perhaps in ten or twenty years, they could regain their Demigod-level strength.
As they were preparing to relocate, Astaroth suddenly paused and looked at the sky.
"Look quickly, what’s happening to the moon?"
In the twilight sky, the newly risen white moon seemed to tremble slightly.
...
Rumble rumble rumble...
In fact, it was not the illusion of the two demon gods. Inside the massive satellite hanging in space, a high-intensity war had reached its climax.
Beneath the vast silver-white alloy dome, in the subterranean spaces leading deeper into this planet, hordes of energy-devouring beasts poured out like a flood.
Groan—!
With heads like jellyfish, topped with translucent umbrella caps, their bodies were stitched together by what seemed like tattered human veins and organs, or like jellyfish tentacles and the emaciated limbs of reptiles.
They surged forward toward the intruders with overwhelming spiritual power.
However, as bombs akin to the "Father of Bombs" fell, not only did these grotesque flesh creatures get shaken, but even the entire moon seemed to tremble violently.
Gathered here were not only the Great Wizards of the "Life Tree School."
The "Treasure Maidens" led by Three-no Girl Baihe, and the demons under Angie’s command...
Also adept in "Psychic Ability," the "Gem Spirit" and "Invisible Son" were brought by Apollo and Artemis to this place.
Alongside them, two "Octopus Girls" moved freely through the air.
Electromagnetic cannons, lasers, plasma cannons... Despite battling a swarm of runaway bizarre entities, they managed to create an atmosphere reminiscent of an interstellar war.
Indeed, it was the two identical-looking "Octopus Girls."
After years of effort, "Gem River" finally succeeded in splitting the first of its kind.
Named "Agate" by Olivia, it was foreseeable that more and more biowarships named after various gemstones would emerge.
"Midorra, bring us another wave of fire support! Today is the day we become the ’ruler’ of the moon."
Aiven stood at the center of the battle circle, commanding with ease.
The purpose of being here was because neither Aiven’s personal next steps in advancement nor the interception of the Evil God’s peeping at the "Möbius Ring" were the primary concerns at present.
Ensuring the future opening of the "Interstellar Immigration Plan" was.
As interstellar migration vehicles, "Gem River" and the "Mythical Battleship: Phantom City," which were intended for large-scale population migration, were certainly focal points.
But what supported this grand feat was the "Moon" and the "Civilization Relic: Catrio’s Wheel," with the latter being irreplaceable.
Of course, Aiven first had to ensure his own escape route.
Having obtained corresponding powers, the immediate task was to resolve the lingering issues from the last exploration, securing this Herag star’s satellite, the "stepping stone" for interstellar migration, firmly in his grasp.
BOOM——!!!
With another concentrated fire from the "Wizard Secret Realm: Central Courtyard," the stratified lands within the moon broke open.
A mighty terrifying force, far surpassing that of the former "Moon God," gradually awakened deep underground.
"Here it comes."
Aiven stared deeply into a giant silver-gray eye larger than a plaza through a fissure several kilometers long in the ground.
Countless gaping mouths full of fangs and dripping saliva surrounded this eye, constantly emitting piercing roars.
Not only in terms of power, but this leftover "guardian" from the "Primordial Civilization," which had at least existed for 2.5 million years, was far more bizarre than the "Moon God."
However.
If most of humanity’s fear stems from lack of firepower, then Aiven now... fears nothing!
