You are all my wings...

A graceful figure dressed in a magnificent long robe plummeted at high speed, but just before hitting the lava lake, it suddenly stopped, stabilized in mid-air, and then slowly rose up.

Moriper looked up and surveyed her surroundings, using detection magic to quickly probe the area within a radius of several hundred kilometers. Her expression then changed slightly.

So many powerful legendary monsters at their peak roam around here?

Is this really the 65th floor of the dungeon?

She wasn't afraid of encountering too many monsters; as long as she was careful, she could always avoid them. What she feared was that the mysterious powerful figure had suppressed her instantly and then suddenly sent her here for other purposes.

As she was wandering and exploring, a thought suddenly struck her.

"That kid is actually there?"

She flashed and flew towards the direction she had detected.

Halfway there, the heavens and earth seemed to shake violently, and the entire lava lake surged wildly, like hell.

Boundless divine power poured forth with a thunderous roar, filling the void.

Originally, not much divine power flowed here, but at this moment, with the tremendous tremor of heaven and earth, boundless divine power gathered, and the entire magma area was immediately filled with pressure.

To Moripe’s surprise, the divine power here was even stronger than what she had felt on the lake.

What happened here?

She sped up.

……

At the same moment.

Macchiato climbed up from the scorching ground and couldn't help but rub her little bottom.

She was somewhat startled, not knowing what had just happened. Suddenly, she was pulled by a tremendous force, and her consciousness seemed to be clouded, causing her to fall uncontrollably to this place.

Just as she was about to check on the others, she suddenly heard Elizabeth's surprised voice:

"Lyon!"

Macchiato quickly turned her head and saw Leon standing in a corner of the island in front of her, holding a dark elf with black hair and a black dress, whose clothes were tattered, and looking at her with a helpless expression.

Not far in front of him, a colossal beast, hundreds of meters tall, lay prostrate, like a mountain, yet made no sound.

Above the giant beast's head stood a six-winged angel who looked like a god.

Macchiato immediately ran over.

"Don't come any closer, it's dangerous!"

"Lyon shouted."

He now understood what the forest apostle meant by asking, "Are you Leon?"

Most likely, it was Iris and her companions who entered this divine ruin in search of her, and she discovered them. From their conversation, she learned that they had come for 'Leon,' and that their relationship was not unrelated.

Originally, the forest apostles could only roam around the lake, and even if they could find them, they couldn't pull them over.

However, with the removal of one of the restrictions, even though she was locked up by the other three locks, the amount of magic she could unleash increased significantly, allowing her to easily capture Iris and the others.

It is clear that the forest apostles intend to take more people hostage.

This guy is so powerful and meticulous in his actions; it's hard to imagine that he's a divine species.

On the other side, upon hearing Leon's shout, Iris, Macchiato, Burelita, Kekeqi, and Mshifisu all stopped and became alert.

As you can see, apart from Macchiato and Mushifiesu, their strength has improved, they have completed their upgrades, and their auras have greatly increased.

However, Lyon knew that this would still be of no help until Helvie was hailed as the forest apostle of the strongest demigod.

However, to his relief, Ophie Marceau and Camille were not there, so they wouldn't really be caught in one fell swoop.

The Forest Apostle smiled leisurely: "It seems these people are all your favorites. Then let them all stay and be hostages."

As soon as the words were spoken, Iris and the others shuddered and were lifted into the air as if out of control.

Even though Britta had advanced to the sixth level and could mobilize more divine authority, and could unleash power comparable to an epic in a short time, she was still powerless against the Forest Apostle and was passively levitated.

She was naturally unwilling to admit defeat and gritted her teeth to activate even more of her authority.

At this moment, Leon used magic to control his power and transmitted his voice: "This is a peak demigod, and a divine species at that. Don't reveal your true strength in front of her. Save the power of your divine authority as a trump card. Leave everything to me!"

Hearing this, Brierita finally gave up struggling.

After Kekeqi advanced to the true sixth rank, the enhancement of her mechanical magic allowed her to unleash a small portion of power comparable to a legend. Although she could see that her opponent was formidable, she did not want to surrender easily and was about to activate the core skill of the Ranger.

Suddenly, Leon's voice came to her ear:

"Sister, don't reveal any more details about your new magic in front of this powerful person. Stay still and don't do anything rash."

Leon quickly sent a telepathic message to everyone, telling them to be quiet.

The reason is simple: the difference in strength is too great, and excessive resistance is likely to cause unnecessary damage.

The Forest Apostle clearly noticed Leon's telepathic communication, but remained unperturbed, saying calmly:

"She is a considerate person, though."

As they spoke, the five women were forced to levitate and rise, about to approach the resurrected dragon-eagle.

suddenly--

A magnificent holy light suddenly appeared and landed on the head of the forest apostle. The infinite pure white light engulfed her body and the hundred-meter-long dragon eagle beneath her feet.

Boom!

Lyon was pushed backward by the immense shockwave generated by the Holy Light squeezing outwards, and the unparalleled force caused the surrounding magma to explode, as if the sky and earth were collapsing.

This move is Moripe's epic-level holy magic, Divine Pillar of the Vault, hailed as the strongest offensive magic on the continent, a powerful technique capable of even injuring demigods.

Lyon, who was attacking the outer perimeter, was also hurt by the residual force of the shockwave, and kept rolling backward to use magic to remove the damage.

As the terrifying aftershocks subsided, he looked back and saw a graceful figure dressed in a gorgeous colorful brocade flying towards him at high speed. It was indeed Moripe!

Lyon inwardly cried out in alarm that even she had gotten caught up in this mess. No matter how strong Morley was, she was only about the same as Helvie, with only a slight advantage in elemental resistance.

Given Herwiz's fate, one can imagine how badly Morley will lose.

Sure enough, the holy light flashed, and the forest apostle was unharmed.

Only the dragon eagle beneath her feet had cracked skin and a ferocious appearance.

However, he was suppressed by the forest apostles and never made a move.

Instead, the Forest Apostle's gaze turned cold as it looked at Moripert, who was flying at high speed seven or eight kilometers away. It reached out and made a fist, then tapped downwards.

BOOM!!!

A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth.

The location where Moriper stood was irrigated by boundless divine power, forming an incomparably powerful invisible cone that struck her.

Surprisingly, Moripert's figure vanished like a phantom, leaving a trail of shockwaves that blasted through the lava, instantly obliterating tens of thousands of meters of surrounding lava.

The next moment, Britta, who had been imprisoned by the forest apostle, also disappeared.

The forest apostle's expression shifted slightly, but he remained silent and reached out to grab the dome.

As she moved, a spatial passage opened up in the dome, and Morleype carrying Berylita at high speed came into view.

The Forest Apostle flexed and extended his five fingers, giving a subtle tug.

At the same time, Moripert, who was more than ten kilometers away, seemed to have been hit by an irresistible blow. Her body suddenly shuddered and she fell straight down.

However, in the instant of her fall, Berylita was thrown far away by her, activating the power of her divine authority, which transformed into a pure white light and carried her far away.

Lyon knew that move; it was a secret holy teleportation magic passed down by the Vatican, which only God's Agents could use at the legendary level.

It can invoke the power of authority at critical moments, transforming the proxy into holy light and instantly escaping danger.

Clearly, although Moripert was not the agent, she had mastered this magic and helped Brierita escape successfully.

The price was that Moripert's body fell straight down, turning into a shooting star.

Lyon could tell at a glance that her face was ashen and her breath was weak, clearly indicating that she had also been defeated by the Forest Apostle, and her vitality had dropped significantly.

His heart sank. Although he had anticipated Moripert's defeat, the fact that she lost so thoroughly was truly cruel.

Above the Legendary level, the gap between each level becomes even greater.

Fortunately, at least she managed to replace Berylita. It seems that Moripert also realized the Forest Apostle's immense power and knew that she had no chance of defeating it. Berylita, even if she only became a Legendary, could potentially fight the Forest Apostle, so she resolutely replaced her.

Of course, it's possible that Moripert noticed what was happening here and judged that she wouldn't be doing well in the future, so she took a risky move.

The advantage of doing this is that the forest apostles will be hesitant to kill Moripert indiscriminately.

At this moment, the Forest Apostle looked at Leon expressionlessly:

"Was the woman who was sent away a representative of the gods?"

Lyon said calmly:

"Your Excellency, although my relationship with her is not very close, if you are worried that she will attract the attention of the gods, I will find her after I leave and explain the seriousness of the situation to her, so that she will not report this matter to the gods for the time being. When she was sent away, she mobilized a large amount of divine authority, so her magic power must have been greatly depleted. She certainly does not have the strength to activate the Holy Prayer spell to connect with the gods now, so Your Excellency does not need to worry for the time being."

"Even if a true god were to descend, he could not harm me."

The Forest Apostle said calmly:

"However, we should still avoid trouble where possible. Here's what we'll do: I'll order you to go and trick her into coming back."

“Your Excellency, my relationship with her is so-so, I might not be able to fool her.”

"You're confident you can fool even a demigod, but you're not confident you can fool a little girl?"

The forest apostle's eyes turned slightly cold.

"Your Excellency, the Divine Agent holds a position even more revered than a demigod in this era. I doubt you would easily trust me. Moreover, the reason I can summon a demigod is because I can lure him with divine relics. The Divine Agent has already witnessed your existence, so it will be extremely difficult to deceive him into coming here... However, Your Excellency can spare this epic friend's life. She is hesitant to act rashly, so I imagine she will not make any rash moves."

Lyon advised:

“My life and death are now in your hands. If you die, I will surely not live either. At this moment, I am on your side. As you have seen, this epic friend and that divine messenger look so alike. What do you think their relationship is?”

"Mother and daughter?"

The Forest Apostle seemed lost in thought.

“That’s right. If it were an ordinary mother and daughter, it wouldn’t be a big deal. But look at the power she wields. Can you tell? It’s the power of justice. Anyone who can wield such power would not disregard their mother’s life. Otherwise, they would be devoured by that power, wouldn’t they?”

This is naturally a lie.

However, he didn't think he was lying; he was just listing facts.

Faced with such a master, a peak demigod who wielded a portion of the power of choice, he did not hesitate for a moment. He immediately activated the purification mode, using only his thoughts and instinct to give an answer.

Lyon continued:

“Your Excellency, I have another request. Although I can bring three demigods over for you, the life alchemy technique needs a few capable assistants to help that scholar outside complete it as soon as possible.”

The Forest Apostle understood Leon's meaning and frowned, saying:

"You want those women?"

“That’s right, they are all geniuses in their respective fields. If we take them over to help, they can learn by analogy. With my miracle divination method for selecting research methods, I think we can complete the theoretical system you requested very quickly.”

Leon didn't explicitly ask for Macchiato, fearing that if he did, the Forest Apostle might refuse to give it to him.

"You can only take one with you, so let's make her the one."

The Forest Apostle pointed to someone at random, and it turned out to be Kekeqi.

Kekeqi clearly understood the situation and immediately called out, "Brother, let Miss Iris go with you. I can wait for you to come back."

In her mind, the one who would become a demigod the fastest in the future was Iris. With Iris there, her group of people would have a chance to survive.

Iris said, "Let Macchiato go; she has the strongest research ability."

She thought to herself that it was because of her departure that things had gotten so out of control.

Not only did Lyon find himself in danger multiple times as a result, but he also took the initiative to draw the enemy away last time.

If the situation improved, it would be fine, but now that the situation is so difficult, her guilt is endless.

The forest apostle glanced at the women:

"You have no say in this."

As soon as the words were spoken, it was as if Iris and the others had their mouths sealed shut, unable to utter a single word, their mouths open but speechless.

Then, Macchiato's body was propelled by an invisible force, and she floated up and flew toward Leon.
