The goddesses attempted to gain my salvation.

The Blood-Eyed Greatsword amplified Ars's abilities once again, making him more than twice as fast as before!

At this speed, even time seems to stretch out infinitely.

Finally, Ars passed through the third stone gate!

Everything around stretched out into the distance again, as if it extended all the way to the horizon.

Lydia, whose figure was still blurry at first, has now become a tiny dot.

What kind of magic is this?!

Ars drew out all the blood stored in the Blood-Eyed Greatsword. At this moment, he was like a war god among men, and the pressure emanating from him was enough to make any living being feel fear.

Speed ​​has been improved once again.

However, as he accelerated several times and passed through the fourth stone gate, everything around him stretched outwards once again, and Ars could no longer see Lydia.

Moreover, even the fifth stone gate extends to the distant horizon.

Arslan also completely lost his ability to think.

Staring blankly at the distant fifth stone gate.

He realized something was wrong and wanted to retreat.

But when he looked back, the stone gate he had passed through had completely vanished...

The entire world was empty, except for the fifth stone gate, which appeared as small as a black dot on the distant horizon.

------

"Capture successful!"

Lydia was panting heavily, her face covered in sweat.

Lydia's unique magic, [Eighteen Gates of Rashomon], exhausted all of her magic power.

However, the results are significant.

At this moment, Ars was still chasing the fifth stone door. But in the real world, the magic circuits within his body had been completely blocked by earth-attribute magic.

If it cannot function, it naturally cannot unleash magic.

At the same time, the person was petrified and turned into a sculpture.

Sugar walked over and gently tapped Ars's sculpture.

The sound was very crisp.

"As expected of the leader of the Moonlit Knights, his capture ability is as strong as ever."

"That idiot, of all people to pick, he had to go after you."

Lydia pressed her hand on the sculpture's head, and ripples spread across the ground.

The sculpture began to slowly sink, eventually disappearing completely, and then hovering a thousand meters below the ground level.

Subsequently, the ground began to harden, becoming even harder than reinforced concrete.

Even if Ars broke free from the seal and escaped from the sculpture, it would be impossible for him to break through the hardened soil and reach over a thousand meters above the ground on his own.

He will face trial by the Vatican.

The only outcome of the trial was death.

A grand death.

"Priest Shug, my magic is exhausted, and I cannot continue fighting."

Lydia gazed weakly into the distance, at the place illuminated by that dazzling light, her expression solemn.

"The rest is up to you."

"The guy in there... isn't dead yet."

Sugar nodded, clenched his fists, and lightning reappeared!

At the same time, Orina's magic was also running out.

The magic circle gradually dissipated, and the dazzling light turned into specks of light.

Bane, affected by the light of divine punishment, vanished without a trace, still regretting not having tasted the fruit wine.

This poor older brother protected his younger brother until his death.

Unfortunately, her younger brother was no longer the Dunn who would snuggle in her arms and dream about a wonderful life.

But...

Disaster striker.

Outland creatures that sow corruption and despair among humankind.

Dunn looked around at the hostile knights, felt the surging magic within him, and a smile crept onto his face.

Admittedly, he is still a little short of a full recovery.

However, Bane is already dead, and Ars has been sealed a thousand meters underground.

These people in front of me won't patiently wait for me to recover.

So he grabbed the rotten flesh on his face with both hands.

Pull outwards forcefully!

With a nauseating sound of flesh being torn apart, the rotten flesh was brutally ripped off!

His face was a bloody mess!

However, the blood is black blood, and the flesh is black flesh!

At this moment, he could no longer be addressed as Dunn; his goat-like eyes swept over the knights before him.

Then, a silent, annihilating aura spread outwards from his body.

Along with it spread, countless black particles filled the sky.

As the wind and snow dissipated, life withered away in this atmosphere.

One of the knights, who was in a forward position, didn't realize what was happening until his arm was corroded down to bone.

Before I could even scream, the corrosive effect swept over my entire body.

In the blink of an eye, only stark white bones and the rusty armor remained.

Disaster struck.

Chapter 242 Desperate Situation

The disaster spread outwards silently.

At the center, the Calamity Walker had long, glossy black hair flowing behind him, and his well-defined muscles revealed the power hidden within him.

His skin, as hard as steel, gleamed with a chilling luster in the sunlight outside the snowstorm.

Those goat-like eyes foreshadowed the impending misfortune.

Having absorbed the magic of the knights, the Calamity Walker squinted its eyes in enjoyment, opened its arms, and felt the cold wind.

For some reason, he seemed to emanate a kind of almost divine radiance.

It wasn't until yet another member of the Knights had been completely corrupted that people realized what was happening.

Olena and Sugar shouted at almost the same time.

“Stand back!”

"hurry up!"

Get away from him!

Centered on the Calamity Walker, the circle of corruption rapidly spread outwards. This spread was so silent that even the perception of magic could not detect it.

The only things you can tell are the melting snow under your feet and the rotting, blackened ground.

The Moon Knights, who had never retreated before, had no choice but to compromise in the face of the Calamity Walker's near-invincible destructive power.

Sugar dragged the exhausted Lydia away from the area at high speed.

The remaining members of the Knights also escaped the scene under Orina's Radiant Leap, leaving no one behind.

The circle of corrosion covered the frozen stream, swallowing the fish and causing life to disappear.

In the blink of an eye, the clear stream turned into rotten, smelly mud.

The circle of corrosion continued to spread, crossing the ice field.

The wolves that once roosted here turned to bones in silence. A massive polar bear collapsed, its eyes filled with bewilderment before it vanished. Passing merchants and villagers, even in their dying moments, were still dreaming of a brighter tomorrow.

Unfortunately, the beautiful and hopeful tomorrow they spoke of will never come.

Their lives were frozen at this moment.

Despair is spreading outwards.

Within the affected area, no life was spared.

Finally, the circle of corrosion stopped spreading.

Within the territory of Magadan, five villages and towns, covering hundreds of square kilometers of land, have been transformed into a land of decay, becoming a forbidden zone for life.

The black particles roamed freely within, tumbling and fluttering.

The knights sat on the edge of the now-stagnant circle of corruption, panting heavily.

Since the founding of the Knights of the Moonlit Night, they have never suffered such a crushing defeat.

There was no other option but to run away.

"Lady Olena..."

"What should we do?"

Sugar looked very unwell.

On one hand, the Moon Knights suffered heavy losses, and their leader, Lydia, also lost her fighting ability.
