I'm the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization-Chapter 497:
Chapter 497:
Howling, screeching, despairing!
The mutation of the Giant Hive plunged countless beings into despair!
Because of the power of the "Realm of Infinity, Ever-changing Facade," over one hundred million people in this city were transported to various dimensions.
There were a total of twenty-seven dimensions.
Among them, over millions of people died instantly due to unfortunate luck upon entering other dimensions!
The adaptability of ordinary people, compared to those with extraordinary abilities, was still far inferior.
Once ordinary people were transported to dimensions with extreme temperatures, extreme cold, or other similar dangers, most of them were unable to survive.
As long as this condition continues for a sufficient duration, it is feared that the ordinary people in the Giant Hive will not survive for much longer. The rate of decrease per minute is exaggerated.
"Is the Babel Tower really home to bad people?"
After "Justice" North gathered the survivors she had rescued together, she couldn’t help but express her confusion and really wanted to get a reasonable explanation.
At this moment, because the space inside and outside the barrier was influenced by the Ruin-level Relic, the Realm of Infinity, Ever-changing Facade, all the power that Mr. Xia could gather had already submerged into various dimensions of the Giant Hive.
All the members of the Air Alliance’s Imperial Guards also responded to Mr. Xia’s call and everyone embarked on the Giant Hive.
Of course, in order to avoid being hindered by the magical barrier in the real world, the city they arrived at wouldn’t naturally be the Giant Hive in the material world.
As Mr. Xia couldn’t fully control the immense power of the Realm of Infinity, Ever-changing Facade at this time, the Imperial Guards automatically dispersed into different dimensions of the Giant Hive after arriving.
The Imperial Guards, this time, came out in full force, but currently, the only person who is standing with "justice" is "Death".
The two of them found themselves in a world filled with crimson blood-colored structures of the Giant Hive. The ground beneath their feet was made of blood, which even seemed to wriggle, as if some kind of creature lurked in the darkness.
In this dimension, the magic barrier of the Giant Hive had no effect.
Justice felt very uncomfortable just staying in this place. She discovered that some ordinary people from the Giant Hive had also fallen into this dimension, so she immediately saved them.
Thinking about how the situation of the ordinary people in this city won’t be good and having to fight against the people from Babel Tower, "Justice," North’s heart feels even more uncomfortable.
She always felt that the people from Babel Tower didn’t seem like bad people.
But, Mr. "World’s" commands were always absolute.
The "Death" in the black robe remained emotionless, shaking his head and saying, "I don’t know."
"Justice" felt a little choked up, knowing that the character of the Death was actually like this, hardly speaking and rarely discussing matters with others.
But he would complete the task.
Especially the tasks assigned by Mr. Xia, "Death" has never disobeyed. Though it hasn’t been confirmed, "Justice" always felt that they might have a relationship similar to that of a mentor and apprentice, or maybe even something closer.
"Justice" paused for a moment:
"I still think the people of Babel Tower are good people. They, along with the Savior, were helping Noah. If Babel Tower didn’t exist, Noah’s people would have been destroyed long ago. Besides, the magician Alan is our new friend. How could we be like this? I always feel like we are the ones betraying."
Even though she knew it would be pointless to speak, Miss North "Justice" continued speaking. She couldn’t bear to let the situation keep progressing.
And the people in this city shouldn’t have to die either, she pondered with a lowered head.
The people who were saved hid in the crimson tower, crying, praying, and also expressing gratitude to the young girl.
Justice clenched her lips, they had no idea that the reason they suddenly found themselves in a completely chaotic situation was entirely due to their own actions.
In reality, "Justice" didn’t expect "Death" to respond to her.
But there were some words she had to speak out.
"Let’s go find Mr. Xia," said the character, "and persuade him to turn back, to not continue being enemies with Babel Tower. I believe there must be some sort of huge misunderstanding!"
"Hmm."
What surprised her was that, to her disbelief, "Death" actually nodded gently and said calmly, "You’re right."
"Ah?"
Now it was "Justice’s" turn to be surprised. It seemed things didn’t go as expected. Unexpectedly, even "Death" didn’t agree with Mr. Xia’s command this time.
"He had changed, becoming different."
The Death silently gazed into the distance. There was a certain special meaning in his words, but "Justice" couldn’t quite understand what he was saying.
She thought that "Death" was planning to betray Mr. Xia.
However, in reality, it was not so.

At the same time, the White Lion "Power," and Ms. Shi Nianyu "Tower," were in a Giant Hive in another dimension.
This dimension was composed of water and fire, resembling the black and white colors in a comic book. All the buildings and living creatures in this dimension were transformed into entities made of water and flames.
The two people who had crossed over from different worlds appeared to be completely out of place.
Shi Nianyu remained as usual, wearing an evening gown, high heels, exuding the allure of a mature woman.
And there stood a majestic White Lion, dressed in a white suit, with three large cigars held in its mouth.
During the journey, the two of them also encountered many ordinary people from the Giant Hive, but they chose to ignore them.
"This dimension is filled with the scent of danger. Hey, I never expected him to leave you like this, without any fear for your safety," said the White Lion, shaking its head along with its words.
Shi Nianyu shook her head and smiled, saying, "That man, he knew I wasn’t weak, I didn’t need his protection at all."
In the middle-ranked Apocalypse "Tower", where the Air Alliance’s Crown-level prisoners were held captive, Shi Nianyu was no ordinary person. Being naturally strong, the White Lion was well aware of this. freēwēbnovel.com
In her presence, he was nothing more than a big, friendly cat.
Being able to be with Shi Nianyu was his good fortune. She could take care of herself, instead of him needing to protect her.
"Be careful, the people at Babel Tower are very strong," he said once again.
"I know."
Shi Nianyu furrowed her brow uneasily and said, "I’m actually quite puzzled and confused. Why did Mr. ‘World’ suddenly decide to attack the Giant Hive, breaking the alliance established with Babel Tower?"
A strong inspiration made Shi Nianyu feel that something was amiss, but she couldn’t pinpoint the exact reason.
Betrayal was something that Xia rarely did, at least that’s what Shi Nianyu had never seen before.
Because the man who believed that "he ruled over both heaven and earth" was extremely proud, he would never engage in treacherous behavior that would hinder his path to becoming stronger.
"I think it’s best to let go of these distractions and thoughts."
The White Lion shook its head and spoke in a deep voice, "He is the decision-maker, viewing things from a higher perspective. And we, as the pawns of the ‘World’ gentleman, only need to obey… Abandoning contemplation and hesitation is what will help achieve that man’s goal."
"Your idea is wrong."
Just then, the sudden voice made the White Lion crush its cigar, squinting its eyes.
"Dark Light," said the holy ones in a soft voice, "Why have you come to this place?"
Two individuals emerged from the shadows, dressed in black cloaks.
Among them was a tall and slender woman in her thirties, dressed in a black veil. She wore a tall hat and glasses, and held a black leather book in her hands.
The other person was an elderly man, his face wrinkled and his hair snowy white. He was thin and frail, with his eyes tightly shut. He appeared extremely aged, as if he could pass away in the next moment.
They were the saints of Dark Light.
They were the Book of Dark Light and the Head of Dark Night, respectively.
The Book of Dark Light adjusted his glasses and calmly said, "We, who follow the will of Dark Light, have come here to eradicate the demons… The Imperial Guards of the Air Alliance, the ‘Power’ and the ‘Tower’, your leader ‘World’ has been possessed by a demon from hell, which is why you were sent to attack Babel Tower."
"Now surrender right away, don’t struggle anymore, and of course, it would be best if you could help us together to eliminate the demons."
Shi Nianyu furrowed her brow and remained silent.
"Hahaha!"
The White Lion laughed uproariously and scoffed, "We have long known that it is your god who has been corrupted by the Outer God! And now, you dare to turn the tables on us?"
Suddenly, the withered and aged Head of Dark Night erupted with a terrifying presence. This presence was as mighty as a mountain. The White Lion, in an instant, ceased its laughter and instead stared at the old man in astonishment.
The Head of Dark Night spoke with a displeased tone, "Disrespecting the gods, your demise is inevitable."
The White Lion huffed, "Ms. Shi, the Babel Tower has already joined forces with that corrupted god, which means even the so-called Savior with the lollipop has been tainted by the Outer God. We need not worry any longer! At this point, we can only eliminate all of them!"
Shi Nianyu continued to remain silent, nodding her head with no other choice.
She could sense the old man’s overwhelming intention to harm, making peaceful conversation impossible.
However, there was something very strange about this old man.

Maryse sat perplexedly on top of an upside-down building.
The unknown dimension was peculiar. All the structures of the Giant Hive were shattered into pieces, floating in the sky like a mosaic of puzzle fragments.
She sat at the edge of the building, feeling bored. This place used to be the bottom of the building, but now the floating structure was upside down, so the bottom became the top.
As Maryse gazed at the numerous floating structures nearby, she felt a sense of loneliness.
Am I the only one here…?
How boring it is!
However, the benefit is… a sense of tranquility.
In a world without people, there are no inner voices either. Maryse rarely has the opportunity to experience such tranquility.
Maryse took a deep breath and lay down.
These past few days, Senior Profligate couldn’t be seen, and it made me feel uneasy. Oh dear, what on earth could be the matter?
Even though she continuously encouraged herself to be proactive, why couldn’t she actually take the initiative? As a nearly thirty-year-old woman, was she incapable of saying even a kind word?
"But thinking about it makes me feel ashamed… The current situation seems pretty good…"
Of course, she had never expected that while she was getting entangled in how to be proactive day by day, someone had already taken the initiative and successfully stolen her home!
Such a proactive decision was something the half-elf girl wouldn’t even consider.
"Maryse!"
Familiar voice!
She immediately sat up and found the Senior Profligate, who had appeared out of nowhere beside her, filling her heart with delight.
"Profligate…"
Suddenly, Maryse heard a whisper in her heart.
All this time, she clearly couldn’t hear it… It wasn’t him!
What she encountered was…
A tremendous fear arose deep within her heart.
Maryse trembled all over, barely able to move, not even able to muster the will to resist.
She was well aware that she had no chance of winning.
Perhaps, she thought, she was about to die right here.
"Senior Profligate, save me…" she pleaded desperately.
"What are you thinking about?"
Smiling, Profligate suddenly leaned closer. The familiar face underwent a transformation, revealing the visage of Mr. Xia, belonging to the "World," devoid of sorrow or joy.
