The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 647 Observer

Rena roared, regaining her spirits. Her silver-blue sword, cracked yet still as hard as steel, swung down fiercely, and together with Sophia, severed the tentacles with absolute will.

However, the enemy's numbers are enormous and they keep replicating, and the relentless attacks are constantly draining the soldiers' stamina and mana.

Cynthia sat in the command center, her eyes glued to the holographic display: "The data stream in the 'Observer Protocol' is accelerating its transmission into unknown dimensions. We must stop this information leak, or the entire universe will face unpredictable new threats!"

She raised her staff and activated the protective barrier with the power of starlight, while coordinating with the mechanics to deploy the latest equipment to strengthen signal interception.

"Amy, Water Lily, you two prepare to provide support! Use elemental power to stabilize the surrounding environment as soon as possible!"

Amy gazed at the sky, where the aura of water element surged and formed giant waves;

Water Lily guides the ice to condense into a more solid crystal wall. The two forces of nature's fury converge to form an important barrier against the expansion of corrosion, buying the guardian team precious time to catch their breath and regroup.

David's eyes shone brightly as he focused all his remaining energy on the dagger, the blade inlaid with ancient holy runes, bearing the intertwined power of crimson gold flames of faith and dark blue shadows.

A hint of determination spread from the corner of his mouth:
"No matter how many conspiracies are hidden, and no matter where the enemy comes from, we will not back down an inch! The will of order will end all corruption here!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than he resolutely leaped into the depths of the battle to engage in a final duel alongside Sophia.

The soldiers around them were already exhausted, but they still gritted their teeth and persevered in the darkness.

Sylvia stood in the center of the broken array, her blood-stained priestess robes fluttering in the wind, her eyes firm and resolute.

She felt the priest's mark burning rapidly within her body, the most extreme and dangerous power from the depths of the Eternal Night Secret Technique, like a raging flame leaping in the darkness, surging out along her meridians.

Although this power is destructive, it is also her only way to counter the corrosive erosion of the spore core.

“There is no way out at this moment…” Sylvia gripped her staff tightly, sweat dripping down her face from the intense spellcasting.

She looked up at the writhing, violent, enormous, decaying divine body that resembled the embodiment of the apocalypse.

Its body was covered in deep black-purple shark scales, which emitted a dark glow on the ground stained with broken ice crystals and blood.

Each furious roar brought with it an overwhelming sense of oppression, like an earthquake.

"Priests, step back! I will detonate the brand! I will burn away this corruption with the secret art of eternal night!" Sylvia's voice was firm and resolute.

Lena and Sophia exchanged a glance, each channeling their last bit of magic and willpower to protect Sylvia.

Lena's silver-blue sword slashed through the air with a piercing clang. Her face showed exhaustion, yet her resolve remained unwavering. "Don't give up easily, we are with you!"

Sofia's eyes shone with a deep blue starlight as she whispered, "Sylvia, you are our lighthouse. No matter how dark it is, we will follow you."

Sylvia closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and merged her entire being with the divine imprint.

This mark is the power of an ancient priest, one of the most core taboos of the Eternal Night Secret Technique. Once detonated, it devours all life's radiance like a black hole, but it can also instantly and severely damage the spore-embryonic evil body.

As the incantation was slowly chanted, dark runes rose from her palms, burning like dark flames and devouring the light in the surrounding space.

A powerful pulse faintly erupted from the center of the brand, and the suppressive force almost tore through the void.

The battlefield fell into a deathly silence in an instant, with only the howling sound of wind sweeping away clouds and the continuous roar of spores in the distance.

"Eternal Night returns! Prepare to die!" Sylvia suddenly spread her arms wide, unleashing all of her sacred will to its limit.

A large energy sphere, interwoven with pure darkness and starlight, rapidly condensed, forming a dazzling yet chilling sea of ​​fire around her, like the inextinguishable burning of a demon's heart.

The flames spread outwards, engulfing the entire area where the spore core was located, like a boundless, thirsty sea.

This powerful energy of the Eternal Night arcane burned the corrupting evil thoughts, causing them to scream in agony. Countless malicious runes were torn apart and dissipated, and the fallen star flames were suppressed to ashes.

Amidst the earth-shaking tremors, the colossal spore-like body seemed to have suffered a fatal blow, and the contradictory energies throughout its body began to violently vibrate and backfire, teetering on the brink of collapse.

However, at this critical moment, a phantom image suddenly emerged from the depths of the spore center.

It was a "Law Star Core" that emitted a cold, eerie light and was surrounded by a complex ring of runes. Within it, a shadowy figure with a cunning yet chilling face was vaguely hidden—the leader of the Eclipse Moon!
"Heh heh heh... You think you can end me with such a paltry trick?" The illusory figure's sneer echoed, and holographic projections pierced the battlefield like sharp blades. "You are nothing but pawns on a multiverse chessboard, while I am the one who truly controls the balance of the laws..."

Sylvia's expression changed drastically, but she still did not retreat an inch.

"You hid within the 'Law Star Core,' yet you could not escape the Final Judgment!"

David strode over from the command post, his gaze sharp: "We will not allow you to manipulate order through evil!"

This is the moment to end all this chaos and depravity!

David gripped the phase dagger tightly, his eyes as resolute as ice.

Standing atop the shattered formation, he felt the residual divine energy within his body surging like a tide. At that moment, he decided to introduce the Chaos Fire into the battle, using extreme methods to completely purify the spore embryo.

Amidst the wind and snow, he murmured, "Chaos... burn."

A burst of scorching crimson-gold energy erupted from his palm. It was a flame woven from order and chaos, as intense as a star exploding, yet carrying endless purifying power.

Flames surged and spread around the dagger, perfectly merging with Sophia's recently restored Shadow Aurora power.

His body's crimson-gold holy runes ignited with an even more dazzling brilliance, and for a moment the space seemed to be distorted and twisted by the intense heat.

But the invisible shackles still entangled every inch of his skin, causing him waves of tearing pain, yet they did not shake his resolve in the slightest.

"For order, for the future of the multiverse..." David gritted his teeth and merged his entire being into the blazing storm.

This energy sphere, ignited by chaotic flames and possessing both destructive and regenerative properties, rapidly expanded, blooming with dazzling light like a red lotus in full bloom, enveloping the corrupted spore embryo within.

Accompanied by a high-pitched, earth-shattering roar that seemed to resonate with the heavens and earth, the scorching fire surged toward the core of the spore.

The corrupt and malicious roar shattered the heavens and earth, countless tentacles thrashed wildly, only to shatter and melt into ashes under the tempering of the flames. The furnace-like heat scorched the blackish-purple shark scales until they cracked and peeled away, and layers of fallen star energy began to be reshaped into a pure rhythm of order.

A strong wind whipped up dust, and the earth seemed to tremble from this destructive purifying power. However, the laws within the magical flow gradually stabilized, suppressing the previously spreading and corrupting miasma, and restoring clarity and tranquility to the edge of the battlefield.

This is destruction, but also rebirth.

"Commander!" Sophia flew swiftly to David's side, her face filled with astonishment. "Your Chaos Fire... it can actually transform and purify such a thick layer of corruption..."

“This is our gamble,” David murmured. “To ignite the purest rebirth with the darkness of the deepest abyss.”

At the same time, after the chaotic burning, he keenly sensed a faint vein emerging from the collapsed part of the spore embryo.

It was a fragment that exuded a cold, dark aura and contained complex runes—according to ancient records, this was the last fragment left behind in the mortal world by the "God of Darkness"!
David's gaze narrowed slightly as he carefully stored it inside the phase dagger.

This fragment reveals countless secrets, pointing to more than just the current abyss.

Rather, it is a hidden passage leading to a deeper, more unknown, and more dangerous realm...

Sylvia staggered to her feet, her face pale but her gaze resolute:
"The priesthood has done its best to ensure the continued stable expansion of the 'Root Cage.' As long as the blockade does not collapse, we can prevent the corruption from spreading further."

Lena and Sophia followed closely behind, looking at the traces of the earth's anomaly in the distance, which were still writhing but had clearly weakened considerably.

"The situation has calmed down for now, but the other side certainly won't give up so easily," Lena analyzed calmly. "We need to reorganize our forces and prepare for a possible new battle."

Cynthia remained in the command center, her brow furrowed in front of the holographic screen.

"The abnormal entries in the Codex of Chaos have been temporarily suppressed, but the entire multiverse law is still in a state of high disorder, and this instability may trigger a wider ripple effect."

She waved her hand to retrieve more cross-border monitoring data. "We must repair the damaged protection grid as soon as possible and strengthen monitoring of unknown abnormal nodes!"

As time passed, the outskirts of New Rainbow Bridge finally enjoyed a brief period of tranquility.

But beneath the gray sky, some ancient and cold gaze seemed to be quietly watching all of this from among the vast starry sky.

Unbeknownst to the guardians, further afield, a colossal being, far more sinister and terrifying, lurking at the edge of the universe, awaits awakening and devouring the will of all things, is quietly stirring...

David stood on the highest platform of the command center, his gaze piercing through the layers of fog, looking towards the distant New Rainbow Bridge City, which had been ravaged by war but still stood firm.

He gripped the Phase Dagger tightly; the blade, imbued with the power of order and chaos, gleamed with a ghostly blue light in the dawn.

Although his divine power had not fully recovered, he remained as resolute as ever.

“Law Star Core…” he murmured to himself, the name weighing heavily on the hearts of all the guardians like a heavy shackle.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away from New Rainbow Bridge City, inside an ancient magic tower, the Wizard Alliance representative, Elwin, stood before a holographic projection.

The projection displayed the enormous star core located at the heart of the divine realm, known as the "Source of Laws," a radiant, massive crystal containing boundless energy and rhythmic order.

However, this once stable "Law Star Core" that exudes a powerful and righteous rhythm is now exhibiting unprecedented irregular pulsations.

The surface of the brilliant crystal shimmered with unusual dark red patterns, which were unstable ripples caused by the erosion of chaotic energy and the conflict with the laws of order, like the surging undercurrents lurking in the deep sea.

Alvin frowned and waved his hand to retrieve more data streams. The screen continuously displayed information bands captured by the magical tide sensor.

"This abnormal pulsation is rapidly intensifying and is closely related to the significant weakening of the magical tides we have been monitoring in recent months."

His voice was low and serious, “We must determine as soon as possible whether this anomaly will cause a wider collapse!”

The assistant beside him anxiously handed over several analysis reports, which showed that multiple spacetime nodes were experiencing a chain reaction due to the anomaly of the "Law Star Core": the rate of magic power loss had increased dramatically, the fluctuations in the multidimensional space had increased significantly, and some sealing arrays showed signs of local failure.

Irwin took a deep breath and focused his attention on the data center.

A calm and resolute glint flashed in his eyes. "This is not just a small-scale anomaly caused by the 'Observer Agreement,' but a large-scale crisis that is far more profound and dangerous than we anticipated."

Meanwhile, an emergency meeting was underway at the New Hongqiao City Command Center.

Cynthia sat at the control panel, staring at the constantly jumping data stream, the holographic screen displaying nodes of different dimensions and their state graphs.

"Although the work of stripping illegal entries from the 'Civil Code' has made some progress, the instability of the 'Law Star Core' is causing cracks to appear in the entire multiverse structure."

Her voice was steady, but it carried an undisguised worry: "If the core collapses, it will cause an unprecedented impact on the borders of the divine kingdom and even the entire multi-realm defense line."

Lena sat upright to the side, her silver-blue armor, though damaged, still gleaming with a cold light. She raised her wrist and lightly touched the remaining holy runes on her chest: "Our sealing array must be strengthened as soon as possible, and more knight squads should be dispatched to patrol, in order to prevent any hostile forces from taking advantage of the situation."

Sophia stood at the window, her eyes gleaming with a deep blue light, as blue and cold as the abyss. "I will continue to use the Shadow Aurora Form to cleanse the remaining corrupt evil thoughts, while assisting the priesthood in strengthening the spiritual purification barrier."

David walked slowly into the conference room, his gaze sweeping over everyone. "Regarding the 'Observer Protocol,' Annie has discovered that it hides a complex cross-dimensional monitoring mechanism. This 'Law Star Core' pulsation may be related to the existence of a higher dimension."

Cynthia nodded. "That's right. Currently, multiple parties are working together to find a way to contain it."

The atmosphere in the meeting room was somber, yet filled with determination and hope; everyone understood the importance of what lay before them to their future.

As night falls, the New Rainbow Bridge City is once again shrouded in a deep blue twilight.

On the edge of the city, a shallow crack slowly spread out, like an invisible spike piercing through a solid defense.

This is a sign that although the "roots cage" is strong, it is still showing signs of fatigue in the face of the ever-growing forces of corruption.

David stood alone atop the city tower, gazing up at the night sky, where countless twinkling stars seemed to see through all the suffering and mysteries.

He said softly, "Though the darkness is deep, as long as our will remains, we can illuminate the future."
