Wu Xin smiled and waved his hand, quickly explaining, "It's just that I feel a little regretful that I'll never see a master musician like you again!"
Hearing the praise, Orpheus, who was in a fairly good mood, replied with a smile, "That's hard to say!"
"No one knows what the future holds."
"Perhaps, right now, a musician even stronger than me has already been born!"
"Maybe!"
Wu Xin smiled but didn't respond.
Orpheus's lyre skills were so great that even the gods were amazed. How difficult it would be to surpass such a hero!
Perhaps such a thing will actually be born in the future, but the possibility is very small in the short term.
After giving his instructions, Sasha turned to look at the Saints and said seriously, "Hypnos and his four dream gods have been successfully sealed away."
"The Underworld will likely make new moves soon. For safety's sake, everyone should return to the Sanctuary as soon as possible!"
Although they successfully achieved their planned objectives after this battle, they were all exhausted, injured, and in extremely poor condition.
If we were to encounter an enemy at this moment, the outcome would certainly be disastrous.
Just then, Sasha suddenly noticed that someone seemed to be missing from the crowd.
“Mr. Bai Li, where is Defteros?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly.
Upon hearing this, all the Saints who participated in the battle in the Dream Realm lowered their heads, and the atmosphere immediately became solemn.
Meanwhile, Yaphic and Shion, who were guarding outside, finally realized that one of their companions was missing.
The man with a fierce face but a kind heart has disappeared.
"I'm so sorry, Lord Sasha!"
Bai Li paused for a moment, then said with a heavy heart, "In order to prevent the Dream Gods from merging, Defteros chose to seal himself and Oneilos, the leader of the Dream Gods, in another dimension, completely isolating them from the battlefield."
"In the end, Oneiros returned to the dream world only as a soul, but Defteros never returned."
"I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."
Bai Li didn't say anything more, but Sasha had already understood what he meant.
She bit her lip, forcing herself not to shed tears.
She knew this was not the place to cry.
After a moment of silence, she instructed everyone in a slightly hoarse voice, "This is not a place to rest. Everyone should hurry back to the Holy Land!"
After saying that, her soul transformed into a golden light and re-integrated into the divine spear. Then, she controlled the divine spear and shot it into the void ahead, disappearing without a trace.
Chapter 159 Bloodstained Evacuation
"In that case, everyone, let's retreat!" Hakurei gestured to the other Saints after Sasha left.
Immediately, everyone bid farewell to Orpheus, who was playing the harp, and then headed towards the exit of the secret realm.
As for Orpheus, he continued to sit in place and play, guarding the last shift for everyone.
Once all the Saints have left the Forest of War, his mission will be completely complete, and he will no longer need to hypnotize the dragon.
"Eurydick, the time when we meet again won't be long!"
He was in a good mood, and the music he played became much more cheerful.
Before long, the group arrived near the exit of the secret realm, and the Saints entered one by one.
Because of his status, Wuxin consciously placed himself last, without vying for the order with the many Gold Saints.
After all, almost all of the Silver and Bronze Saints he brought with him had been wiped out, leaving only him. There was no Saint of lower rank than him.
As Bai Li and the others passed through the secret realm exit one by one, only Wu Xin, Manigoldo, and El Cid remained in place.
“Please go first!” Manigold said graciously to El Cid.
He wasn't in a hurry even though his junior brother was still at the very end.
El Cid nodded, said nothing more, and immediately prepared to step into the exit of the secret realm.
But at that moment, two powerful and unfamiliar microcosms suddenly shot out from the dense forest, heading straight towards the three of them.
"careful!"
Manigoldo hurriedly issued a warning and quickly gathered his cosmic power to prepare for the attack.
But the people who arrived were very fast and had been prepared in advance, giving them no time to react.
"Paradise"
One of them launched an attack, and immediately countless beautiful children appeared, swaying their graceful figures and laughing as they pounced on Wuxin and Manigoldo.
In just a moment, their blood boiled and an unnamed fire burned fiercely in their lower abdomens.
"Oh no, it's that guy!!"
Wu Xin immediately recognized that this was the same trick used by the so-called blasphemer who appeared when he was investigating the murder of the priestess in Tehran.
Manigoldo recognized him as well and stood in front of Wuxin without hesitation.
He knew very well that the blasphemer was not weak; he was a powerful figure among those with the Seventh Sense, and Wu Xin was simply not someone he could withstand.
Unable to use his ultimate move to counter, he could only barely muster some of his inner cosmic power to cover his hands, preparing to withstand this strange attack.
However, the Blasphemer's move is very strange. It does not have strong direct killing power, but focuses more on destroying the opponent's mental will.
When faced with someone of weak will, it can completely immerse them in this dreamlike paradise, making them unable to extricate themselves, until they eventually exhaust their spirit and die.
Wu Xin and the other two were already exhausted from the great battle in the dream world. Now, they were ambushed and their minds went blank for a moment before they were surrounded by those stunning beauties.
He knew something was wrong and instinctively wanted to resist, preparing to push away the several stunningly beautiful women surrounding him. But at that moment, he was horrified to find that he was losing control of his body.
He even embraced two of them with great joy, as if another force was controlling his body.
He immediately realized that his instinctive desires were being amplified by his opponent's tactics, gradually consuming his reason.
If he hadn't experienced the impact of the internet on modern society and witnessed all sorts of things online, he probably would have already fallen into such a beautiful dream.
"No, this isn't me!"
He was startled and quickly bit his tongue hard.
Using the stinging sensation from biting his tongue, he suppressed his desires again, regained control of his body, and the beautiful women surrounding him vanished completely.
"Oh? I didn't expect that a Silver Saint like you could actually withstand my 'Paradise'!" came the Blasphemer's surprised voice from the side.
Wu Xin looked closely and saw that one of the other's hands had pierced through Manigault's chest, and bright red blood was dripping from the other's fingers.
"Senior brother—"
Wu Xin cried out in surprise and immediately threw a punch and charged forward.
Unfortunately, he was too tired and his speed was far from his peak.
Adding to the opponent's already formidable strength, before he could even get close, the blasphemer casually waved his left hand, releasing a black light that knocked him to the ground.
"what--"
Wu Xin suddenly felt a sharp pain in his internal organs, as if they were about to be shattered, and there was more blood at the corner of his mouth.
With just a casual strike, his already exhausted body was instantly severely injured.
At that moment, he noticed that El Cid, not far away, was also bleeding from the mouth, kneeling on the ground, and his golden armor was mostly shattered.
Clearly, El Cid, who was in poor condition, also suffered a great loss in the face of the sneak attack.
"Cough cough cough-"
El Cid coughed twice, then stood up shakily and said sternly, "If you're not Specters, then who are you?"
Although the opponent was wearing black battle armor, he did not have the unique aura of death that the underworld possessed.
"Who we are is not important. What is important is that you must die here today!" The Grief-stricken One said coldly, subtly blocking the exit of the secret realm.
Like the Blasphemer, he also concealed his face with a black mist, making it impossible to see his features.
"That's right, you must die today! Especially the two of you!"
The Blasphemer glanced at Wu Xin and the other person meaningfully, and said coldly, "I should have killed you last time, but the timing was not right, so I had no choice but to let you go."
"Now that you've run into each other again, you won't have the same good luck as last time!"
"But then again, you really didn't call him the wrong senior brother, he was actually willing to risk his life to take a knife for you!"
As he spoke, he slowly pulled his right hand, which had pierced Manigault's chest, out.
Without his support, Manigoldo collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud.
"It wasn't for nothing that I feinted and used you as a decoy; otherwise, killing him in one blow wouldn't have been so easy!" the Blasphemer added smugly.
Wu Xin's strength was too weak, he was just a small fry, not even enough to fill a tooth gap, so his main goal was to keep Cancer Manigoldo.
Therefore, he first used 'Paradise of Elysium' to launch a sneak attack, weakening the mental will of the two, and then used a feint to launch a full-scale attack on Wuxin.
The goal was to lull Manigold into a false sense of security so that he could execute a decisive strike.
However, he never expected that they had such a deep bond as brothers that Manigoldo was willing to risk his life to save him.
Because there was no time to stop him, Manigoldo even chose to use his own body to shield himself.
Although this action was somewhat unexpected by the blasphemer, he still chose to accept it gladly and delivered a full-force blow that pierced through Manigoldo's chest.
Upon hearing this, Wuxin was completely stunned.
He never imagined that Manigoldo had been killed by the enemy while trying to save him.
"Senior brother—"
He scrambled forward and picked up Manigoldo, who was covered in blood.
This time, the blasphemer unexpectedly did not stop them. Instead, he 'generously' took two steps back, giving the two space to give their last words.
