Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist!-Chapter 256 - 255: The Overall Situation is Settled

Chapter 256: Chapter 255: The Overall Situation is Settled

The Power of Existence surged into a towering wave, charging directly from one end of the stone bridge back to the mountain. As the flood of light struck the hill, everyone felt the ground beneath their feet violently tremble, followed by…

“Rumble, rumble, rumble…”

Deep, shocking roars sounded, and that very hill, under Fang Zheng’s single blow, collapsed by half! And the stone bridge that the flood of light passed through also “crack” at that moment, completely fracturing and turning into dust that scattered across the ground.

“MMP!”

Setting aside the giant sword, Fang Zheng coldly glared at the distant hill he collapsed, cursing softly. To be honest, at that time, Fang Zheng was really helpless. Although he had “foreseen” that someone would attack him after he released the seal, the issue was that he had to release the seal at that time, or it would automatically release itself. The moment the seal was released, Fang Zheng inevitably had no ability to resist, just as if you were speeding in a car and then suddenly hit the brakes, the car would still slide forward due to inertia. It was an inevitable process, regardless of whether you could foresee the future or not.

No wonder Prophecy Mages often disliked close combat; this feeling was really unbearable. Even if you could feel it coming, you couldn’t change it…

However…

Thinking of his teacher’s six-pack abs, Fang Zheng felt that some people indeed existed beyond all understanding.

“Are you okay, Tilia?”

Setting down the giant sword, Fang Zheng looked towards the girl in his arms. Tilia was completely limp at that moment, collapsing weakly into Fang Zheng’s embrace. Her pale face even looked somewhat transparent, an indicator that the Power of Existence had been greatly depleted. On hearing Fang Zheng’s question, Tilia managed a faint smile.

“No… problem… Elder Brother… just… a bit… exhausted…”

“Alright, don’t talk.”

Hearing Tilia’s voice falter, Fang Zheng’s heart ached, fully aware that it was because of a tremendous depletion of the Power of Existence. Their bodily forms, after all, were just that—forms, unlike humans and Fire Mist Warriors who possessed internal organs. Hence, the weakness in Tilia’s voice was naturally not because her lungs were injured from the attack, but because the depletion of the Power of Existence was making her voice increasingly frail. Although he knew that as his summon, she wouldn’t easily die, seeing how Tilia rushed forward without hesitation to shield him deeply moved Fang Zheng.

Although Fang Zheng currently wielded Arthas’s Soulstone, meaning he held an invincible stand, even if that menopausal fat woman really attacked, he was confident enough to nullify the damage. Nonetheless, Tilia’s willingness to unhesitatingly shield him was enough to prove her feelings for him.

At that moment, Fang Zheng also didn’t hesitate to lower his head and block Tilia’s mouth.

“Mmm…”

Feeling the heat that came from her mouth, Tilia’s eyes instinctively widened, but the next moment, she closed her eyes, revealing a sweet smile, grasping Fang Zheng’s back tightly with both hands, and began to enjoy the moment.

After a short while, the two separated again. Fang Zheng had to admit, kissing Tilia was purely delightful. Whenever they kissed, the girl would present herself in such an obedient and cooperative manner, allowing him to “harvest” freely. Fortunately, Fang Zheng could still control himself; otherwise… cough, cough, it would have been just a matter of time.

“How do you feel now? A bit better?”

The Power of Existence from Zero Hour Resurgence had been mostly used by Fang Zheng; the normal sustaining outer layer of energy was all supplied to “Icecrown Citadel,” and when attacked, Fang Zheng had taken half of the reserve energy to strengthen Tilia’s protection, the rest he blasted out combined with Holy Light. Now, only the minimal core energy remained in Zero Hour Resurgence. Hence, Fang Zheng used his own Power of Existence; although he was human, his body, having been modified by the Zerg, contained an amount of the Power of the Stars not much less than the Power of Existence of the Fire Mist Warriors, which was at least sufficient for combat and recovery.

At that moment, Fang Zheng transferred a third of his Power of Existence to Tilia, allowing her to recover somewhat.

“I’m alright, Elder Brother. I just can’t fight for now.”

Tilia was much better at the moment; her initially translucent body had returned to normal. Then the girl stuck out her tongue, gently licking her lips, before smiling at Fang Zheng. Hearing Tilia’s response, Fang Zheng let out a sigh of relief, finally releasing his right hand that was wrapped around Tilia’s delicate waist.

“Master Hierarch, are you alright?”

At that moment, Feckoru also appeared beside Fang Zheng. That strike had really scared him to death; not even Feckoru had expected that Sophie Sabelishu would choose that moment to attack Fang Zheng, nearly causing Feckoru’s heart to chill. If anything had happened to Fang Zheng, would the great efforts for the Masquerade Ball be all doomed?

Looking at Fang Zheng’s clean clothes, not even tarnished by dust, Feckoru was secretly amazed. He knew that Fang Zheng hadn’t used the Fire of Purification to clean and heal himself, which meant that the Alliance Hierarch had faced Sophie Sabelishu’s full-force blow without a scratch!

This is the power of the Hierarch I wait upon!

“How’s the reinforcement?”

“Yes, Master, they have arrived.”

“Good, then I’ll leave the next part to you, I’m taking Tilia back to watch the show.”

Hearing Feckoru’s response, Fang Zheng nodded in satisfaction. He and Tilia had little combat ability left; the most troublesome among the Fire Mist Warriors were either eliminated or severely injured by him. Having done what was required of him as the boss, it was time for his subordinates to make their moves.

At this thought, Fang Zheng gave a slight smile, then he and Tilia took to the skies, looking towards the battlefield before loudly proclaiming.

“Listen, my Angel Envoys, ‘Formal Rider’ Kamsin and ‘Sparkling Master’ Rebecca have been personally slain by Tilia and me! Fire Mist Warriors, you have nowhere to retreat. Since you dared to disrupt the Holy Command, prepare to atone with your deaths! Followers of the Crimson Realm…”

At this point, Fang Zheng raised his hand and swung it forward fiercely.

“Kill!!”

“Ohhhhhhhhh!!!”

“Alliance Hierarch Master!!!”

“Long live the Ritual Snake!!!”

Upon hearing Fang Zheng’s words, the morale of the Followers of the Crimson Realm soared once again, while, at the same time, the Fire Mist Warriors were dumbstruck.

“How can this be? Not only the ‘Formal Rider,’ but even the ‘Sparkling Master’ too… It must be a lie!”

“But, didn’t our frontline troops get crushed as well?”

No one doubted that Fang Zheng was lying, because lying in such a manner on the battlefield made no sense. It had always been this way throughout history, especially in battles where the strength of elite fighters like the Fire Mist Warriors was crucial. The deaths of these powerful warriors would have a significant impact. As the Ritual Snake, Fang Zheng had no reason to tell such an easily pierced lie. It was common sense that if he spread such news now, others could come forth the next moment, bumbling the situation and thereby lowering the morale at the Masquerade Ball.

Now that Fang Zheng had spoken, and those two Fire Mist Warriors had still not shown up, there was only one explanation.

What he said was true!!

Realizing this, the morale of the Fire Mist Warriors plummeted even more, not to mention that just moments before, they had witnessed their commander being thrown off a mountain by Fang Zheng’s sword, leaving his fate uncertain. The news had already shaken them, and now hearing this only deepened their unrest.

However, they soon realized that they had to face more bad news.

“Commander Sophie!!”

When the Fire Mist Warriors hurriedly rushed to the collapsed part of the hill, Sophie Sabelishu had already crawled out of the rubble. However, at this moment, this “Bold Mama” was nowhere near as composed as before. Although Fang Zheng had not hit her directly, which would have triggered the vampire effect, the explosive burst of Holy Light and Power of Existence alone was enough to severely challenge Sophie. Her clothes were tattered, and blood streamed down from her forehead, making her look as though she was on the brink of death. Seeing her in this state shocked everyone.

“Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

In response to her subordinate’s question, Sophie managed a faint smile, then glanced at her tattered clothes and slightly furrowed her brow. Immediately after, the Fire of Purification erupted, healing her injuries and cleaning the filth from her body, making her look much better.

“What’s the situation now?”

“The situation isn’t good, everyone…”

“Commander, Commander!!”

Just then, a Fire Mist Warrior ran over in a panic. Seeing his state, Sophie frowned and sharply asked.

“Don’t panic. What exactly happened?”

“It’s bad, the enemy’s reinforcements… the reinforcements have arrived!”

“What?”

Upon hearing this, Sophie’s expression changed drastically.

“This is impossible! How can this be!?”

Although she had anticipated that issuing an attack on the Hall of the Star Dawn would prompt a counter-reaction, at the start of the attack she had specifically spoken with leaders on the eastern and western fronts, learning that the battle there was in a stalemate; the Followers of the Crimson Realm couldn’t possibly have pulled back so soon, and even if they had received the message, it would take a day to return.

But now, how could this happen?!
