Chapter 125: Chapter 95: Ancient God’s Favored

The mechanical giant dragon flapped its wings, and its immense speed erupted instantly, rapidly closing in on the mound.

The dragon breath was ready, and the undead breath was unhesitatingly sprayed towards the mound.

The opponent seemed slightly surprised, a wave of dark, oppressive aura flickered past, blocking the dragon’s breath.

Buzz~

Boom!

The next moment, both Baiyi and the young man retreated simultaneously, Baiyi reappeared on the dragon’s head, with extreme malice and curse on his body constantly clashing, slowly restoring his body to its original state.

They stared at each other, that young man’s eyes returned to a polite yet distant look again, smiling, he said: ”Not bad, I’m called Charles, a follower of the Dark Monarch, pleased to meet you, Baiyi.”

Baiyi’s eyes flashed with understanding, and then with some concern, indeed, everything happened earlier than expected, the arrival of players marks the beginning of restoration for the Xiya Continent.

The current world’s upper limit is still legendary, but every bit of recovery brings ancient gods and abyss, undead, hell closer.

Now in the internal testing phase, first, the 3.0 version’s Black Night Rose collided with the Federation ahead of time, followed by the 2.0 Divine Walkers appearing.

The kingdom of the ancient gods might arrive much earlier than he anticipated.

As the pinnacle beings of this world, the ancient gods regard all beings as... playthings and soul resources.

In the kingdoms ruled by them, there is no difference among all beings, their need for faith is negligible, and their followers, apart from sacrifices, are like shepherd dogs in their view.

Only those who reach legendary or demigod levels are considered true subordinates by the ancient gods.

So the young man in front is also a shepherd dog, their only task is to wage wars, ceaselessly waging wars, colliding those living in chaos with the three federations, death, slaughter.

And the souls fallen in battle will be extracted, those resources sacrificed, so that the ancient gods can restore the wounds sealed and suppressed by the new gods before descending to Xia.

Baiyi didn’t speak for a while, the Dark Monarch is a proud ancient god, enjoying seeing the terror on enemies’ faces when aware of His arrival.

And His followers inherit His arrogance, so this Charles came directly.

”Alchemist.... Tch, do you think if I fear your poison, I would still come?” Charles smiled, extending a hand, around which the alchemical toxins frantically gathered, condensing into a dark green bead in his hand.

He looked at Baiyi, seemingly not caring if Baiyi responds, just talking to himself: ”This time I came looking for you after hearing your reputation, wanting to see this once-in-a-century genius. Turns out, not that impressive?”

He yawned, turning to walk down the slope: ”Well then, I plan to establish a kingdom not far from here, prepare for war, Alchemist.”

”Are you really not afraid?” Baiyi suddenly spoke, causing Charles to pause mid-step.

He turned around with interest, the toxin in his hand turning to nothingness, spreading his hands: ”You see, clearly your poison is useless, and your malicious body seems to be....”

Buzz~

A terrifying sonic boom descended, Charles’s face changed, bursting forth with terrifying speed toward the bottom of the slope.

Boom!

Endless fire soared into the sky, the small mound instantly flattened, missile launch sounds from the city were incessant, the second and third arrived, ice and thunder subsequently engulfed the ten-kilometer area ahead, spraying terrifying energy waves, turning the mound into a deep valley.

Charles, now several tens of thousands of meters away, bore marks of flame burns on his body, his composure gone, his eyes turned pure black, seemingly both shamed and angry.

Yet, he swiftly restrained his emotions, revealing that composed smile: ”Very well, Baiyi, I look forward to our war.”

Magic power accompanied his words, and then his figure slowly faded, completely disappearing from space.

Baiyi returned to a state of light, somewhat worriedly flying back with Bodun.

A spatial ripple passed, Diane appeared on the bone dragon’s head, exceptionally excited: ”Quick, give me the address of that secret realm, I need to hunt down that red dragon now.”

Baiyi looked towards the original direction of the red dragon, now empty. He took out a metal sphere from his space ring, handing it over, trying to persuade: ”There’s a map inside, it will guide you to the destination, but for dragon hunting, you’d better call....”

”Relax, relax, do you think I only have scrolls? If she resists, I don’t mind killing her. Bye, see you next time.” Diane cut Baiyi off.

Snatching the metal sphere, she opened a scroll, a strong spatial ripple flickered, her body rapidly fading.

Just before disappearing, as if remembering something, she tossed a scroll into his arms: ”Don’t die, wait for me to come back.”

[You obtained a Golden High-Rank Magic Scroll: Sun Furnace ×1.]

[Name: Sun Furnace.

Attributes: One-time Mage Scroll.

Effect: Drag enemy into a space seal, emitting high temperatures akin to the sun’s core, melting the enemy.

Duration: 60 seconds.

Introduction: Observe the sun, praise the sun, imitate the sun---Metheus Di Feng.]

Baiyi: ....

Metheus seems to be the current patriarch of the Di Feng family, a Level 75 Mage, Diane’s grandfather.

Alright, he doesn’t quite understand the world of the young miss, but being powerful is what matters.

He looked toward the West City Gate, where the hellish aura was slowly diminishing; the old City Lord hovered, landing gentle eyes on him before strolling into the city.

The event swiftly concluded under Diane’s lavish combat technique, now the Black Night Rose in Dongwu City was leaderless, the Ancient God’s Favored emerging early, intending to wear them down as before...

Fortunately, the ancient gods aren’t able to summon demigods now as they could thirty years later, as long as no divine descent occurs, problems are manageable.

Even if thirty years later they can summon demigods, they focus primarily on the other two federations, not much interested in Dawn.

The legendary final battle is always magnificent. Knowing just one could end Dawn’s false peace, but no one wants to be the sacrifice.

Returning to the city, Baiyi exhaled deeply, letting the bone dragon return to the Inner City Wall.

He headed towards the Knowledge Hall; he needed more combat techniques, and Baiyi had his own ideas.

”Respected Mr. Baiyi, good day. Are you here to purchase or sell knowledge?”

An electronic voice sounded, that familiar mechanical life form quickly gliding over, unmistakable admiration in its tone.

”Purchase, search for, high-tier knowledge on Alchemy Machinery AI intelligence.”

”Okay, please wait a moment.”

The screen on the mechanical life form’s face showed garbled text, then a series of data formed several options.

Baiyi slid up and down, selecting one he could currently create and purchase.

[Name: Growth Artificial Intelligence.

Effect: Will never disobey fundamental instructions, can learn all knowledge without disobeying directives.

Introduction: The prototype of a digital life form, possessing high computational power, yet not considered life.

Baiyi can now obtain any knowledge available at the Knowledge Hall for free, as deducted points ultimately contribute to the city’s income.

So, Baiyi no longer needs to check prices when purchasing knowledge.

”Search, tiny mechanical group.”

Baiyi continued issuing commands.

”Okay, please wait.”

The mechanical voice remained respectful, as data streams passed by, swiftly filtering options, leaving three selections on the panel at last.

[Mechanical Mosquitoes, priced at 100,000 Contribution Points (50% off).]
