Chapter 552: Goddess
In less than a thirtieth of a second, Li Mochen, who had turned into light, had already passed through the holes that he had pierced and arrived at the twentieth floor of the 'Scepter of Destruction' magic tower.
With a stab from his long knife, he pierced through the last wall of magical energy in front of Robespierre, placing the Sakura Blood knife on the magician's neck and suppressing the latter's last struggle.
"Lay down your staff, OK, you've lost, Monsieur Robespierre!"
Li Mochen's eyes were arrogant, looking down at Robespierre - he was not fully developed yet, but he was already a head taller than this guy.
Height is the weakness of this magician, and Jennifer next to her is not wearing high heels, this is really a considerate woman.
"Shit!"
Lafat de Robespierre threw the ruby staff on the ground with a pale face, his eyes full of unwillingness: "I confess that I have despised you, and if I do it again, it will not be like this." β
"You brought it on yourself. If it had been a real battle, you would have been dead by now, Monsieur Robespierre!"
Li Mochen shrugged his shoulders and put away the Sakura Blood Knife with an indifferent look: "If you fight again, I can accompany you." But I have to warn you, your Scepter of Destruction magic tower will be even more damaged. I've left my hand, Your Excellency the Magician!"
So the real saboteur is actually the one opposite him. Li Mochen just slashed with a knife a few times, how serious can the damage be? That is very easy to repair. As for the vines and trees in the outside world, it is only the outer layer that is destroyed.
But he had just estimated that this magic envoy should have lost at least four and a half billion gold shields!
Robespierre was stunned for a moment, and then scolded again: "You don't need to worry about this, bastard! β
His tone was a little weak, Li Mochen's melee combat and breakthrough ability were so strong that he had no friends. As long as this guy can't be kept out of the magic tower, then huge losses cannot be avoided.
So before that, he must master more powerful defenses to keep the enemy out.
At this time, Li Mochen had already turned his head to look at Jennifer Wildenstein: "Jenny, I know that my parents have always regretted and grieved for your affairs, and they hated that they couldn't shelter you from the wind and rain. You don't want to see it more than a year ago, do you? I've heard your butler say that you couldn't sleep during that time. He even found you secretly crying at night holding a picture of your father. β
Jennifer at this time, although she didn't say a word. But her face was already full of tears.
Li Mochen smiled and stretched out his hand towards her: "And now your younger brother has been able to become your most solid backing, and he has enough ability to seek justice for you." So Jenny, do you want to be together? Go back to this home, and we'll get everything back that belongs to you!"
Jennifer bit her lip with her teeth, and a wisp of blood spilled from the corner of her lip.
"Amo, I confess that the moment I heard the news of my father's death with Elena, I was already remorseful. I'm also glad you came to me, it makes me so happy. But I also know that I am a sinner, and that I will never be able to atone for my sins for the rest of my life, and that I will never be able to forgive myself. I don't have the face to come back to you, be cheeky, and be your sister as if nothing happened. β
There was indescribable sadness in Jennifer's voice. Then she looked sideways at Rafat de Robespierre: "Rafat is instructing me in my magic practice, and he is still helping me in swordsmanship, and he is really good to me." I will avenge myself and my parents, and I will never be a bystander. β
Li Mochen raised his eyebrows, and then sighed, he was not surprised at all by Jennifer's answer.
β»β»β»β»
At the same time, at Bethel Estine's Tower of Supreme Truth, the magical image had dispersed.
The reason why Estantine's observation magic was able to penetrate deep into another magic tower was because of the strongest magician's advanced attainments in spells, and on the other hand, the magic marker marked on Li Mochen's body.
But at the moment Robespierre put down his staff and surrendered, Li Mochen had already erased this Dao mark in the form of a spiritual imprint.
"It's over! Looks like he doesn't want us to watch his soap opera any longer. β
The young mage was still unsatisfied, and looked at the soul gold coins on the table with reluctance: "Goodbye, my property." β
"It's just a little bit of money for you, isn't it?"
Christy Brad smiled and received the two hundred gold coins into his space bag.
- This thing is very valuable, and it only circulates among the top powerhouses in the Bright World. Each of them was forged by the gods, or the Lords of Hell, the Abyssal Demon Kings, extracting the purest part of thousands of souls.
Each of them can extend a person's life by a year. So it is a real hard currency, which circulates not only in hell and heaven, but also in the outer lands.
In the Bright World, the current price on the black market is 30 million pieces. Two hundred pieces is six billion gold shields.
INTERVIEWER At present, there are about 100 million drugs that can prolong people's life by 10 years. But the preciousness of the Soul Gold Coin lies in the fact that it can be used even for demigods and gods.
However, Christy Brad also knew that these gold coins were actually nothing to his two seniors. Both of them were alchemists who had been mixed up decades ago, one with the expertise of utensils and the other with the expertise of medicine. Although she has not yet become a magician, her net worth is more than ten times that of her.
"Little money, I've spent an unknown number of days and nights in the lab for them. β
The young mage smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, there are still some gains this time, after consulting the teacher this time, I am ready to go back to retreat, and come out again in three or five years, maybe I can condense a divine power." β
At this time, he suddenly realized that something was wrong: "What about the teacher?"
Near them, Bethel Estadin at the small round table, was nowhere to be seenβhe had no idea when he had left.
"There's a guest coming, on the top floor of this magic tower, the one the teacher he must go to see whenever he wants. β
The middle-aged mage was wielding his mana at this time, replaying the battle footage from the beginning of the moment - he had recorded it completely from beginning to end.
"Whenever, you have to go to the audience?"
The young mage's eyes narrowed slightly: "Is it the goddess of magic?"
At this time, the person who appeared on the top floor of the 'Supreme Truth' magic tower was indeed the goddess of magicβto be precise, an incarnation of the goddess of magic.
She is in the form of a human girl, with long waterfall-like hair, curved eyebrows, plump cheeks, full lips, and snow-white skin that seems to be transparent under the light, looking extremely delicate and beautiful.
When confronted by Bethel Estadine, he did not have any pride or self-esteem as a god, but was similar to the deference of a student to a teacher.
"Estadine, what's going on over here? I feel like there's a powerful wave of magic energy around San Francisco. But when I tried to find out, I found nothing, is it you Estantine?"
"It was something that had happened, and it had something to do with Rafat de Robespierre. β
Estadine said very calmly: "Please forgive me, Your Highness, I have an agreement with someone and cannot disclose the details to you. β
"Robespierre? β
The girl shook her head, as if suppressing her curiosity.
"Let's get down to business, just now Thomas Milan, the god of alchemy, machines and craftsmen, has asked me for help. Limited to the Covenant, I must put in a certain amount of strength on my side. β
"I will not stop you, Your Highness the Goddess. β
Estadine replied calmly: "But I suggest that you have reservations, and it is best to have a record that can ensure the safety of our personnel." β
"Reserved?"
The girl blinked, and asked tentatively, "Are you not optimistic about Thomas's side?" or for your disciple Anthony?"
"I think my loyalty has been tested. β
Estine's voice still did not fluctuate without any fluctuations: "Even if it is Anthony, I will not have any reservations." β
"I see. β
The girl couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and it took a long time for her to write down the names of three people on the small table in front of her: "Although I don't know the reason for your judgment in this way, I believe you. As you can see, their combat effectiveness is okay, and the key is that their ability to escape for their lives is also very good. β
"Three demigods?"
Estadine was a little surprised: "That's it?"
"Do you want the professor to be dispatched? My covenant with Thomas Milan is nothing more than that, and he has only made me two pieces of mythical equipment, and he is still generous to his followers. β
The girl shook her head: "You know my attitude, Estantine. Compared to Thomas Milan, I hope that there will be a more powerful god of machinery and craftsmen in the bright world, which will help us deal with possible disasters in the future. However, Thomas is not a man to be messed with, and he is also prepared with very strong power, and there are already two true gods standing with him. I'm actually the exact opposite of you, thinking that Thomas is more dominant. So, you get the idea, right?"
Estadine smiled bitterly, and then leaned over with gratitude: "Thank you for your grace, Your Highness the Goddess, I will tell Anthony about this." β
"I'm not going to make him grateful. β
The goddess of magic smiled, "Estantine, if you think I'm good to you, then please use your wisdom and strength to help me." The next few years will be crucial for me. β
"I'll help you, but it's not a good time. β
At this time, Estadine actually frowned: "Your idea is good, but it will also usher in a huge backlash." β
"I know, but I've been doing it so long just to prepare. But this is the only way I can think of to keep the Divine War out of the world of light, and it is also the foundation of my future existence. Just let me tryβ"
The goddess of magic clasped her hands together and made a gesture of please: "Time is running out, and those god kings in the outer lands are ready to come to this world again." So I'll have to rely on you on America's side, Professor Estantine!"
At this time, in the outer space of San Francisco, in a ruined magic tower, Rafat de Robespierre put down a book in his hand called "The Great Law of the Divine Heart Ding Furnace". At this time, there were already a bunch of books in front of him, including "Blood Refining Technique", "Magic Bonding Technique", "Dao Heart Cultivation Demon" and so on.
- Although the names are different, the content is roughly the same, and the details are different.
"I kind of get what you're thinking. β
Robespierre looked at the other side thoughtfully: "Theoretically, those who use this way to rob other people's talents and bloodlines, and even magic power, also have the possibility of being counterattacked. But are you sure you want to do it? According to my calculations, I shouldn't be very sure? At most, it's just over 10 percent. And it's dangerous, and the recipient will face great pain, and I don't recommend Jennifer do that. β
"But I think the best way to take revenge on some people is to treat them the way they do. After that, I will let him suffer eternal pain and suffering. Of course, this must depend on Jenny's personal opinion. β
Li Mochen looked at Jennifer, and then withdrew his gaze.
There is no need to ask, after hearing the conversation between the two of them, Jennifer, who had already guessed the truth, changed her breath drastically, the source power around her body was expanding, and her eyes were like flames 'burning'.
"Since Jennifer has decided to stay with you, then you are responsible for the preparation in advance. Considering that my war with Philip I was not long before that, it is likely that Edmund will be forced out of the game by me. Give you a month, okay?"
As for the 'success rate', he naturally has a way to guarantee it.
"Enough, not a very difficult thing. After all, in the past six months, I have also studied how to remove the spell on Jennifer. β
Robespierre snorted: "Edmund, he may not have the ability to play. β
"Then after killing Philip, I'll take the initiative to find him, the same. That's all for today, bother, Monsieur Robespierre. β
After Li Mochen stood up, he glanced at Jennifer again. He thought about it for a while, and finally could only smile bitterly: "Take care, Jenny, and we'll see you in a month." β
"I will. β
Jennifer gritted her teeth: "I heard that you have bought our mansion back, haven't you? Their daughter, who has no face to see them. β
"Yes, although I don't approve of your idea myself. β
Li Mochen had already let the little dragon vein that had returned to his side once again scratch a trace of emptiness: "Mr. Robespierre, please take care of her too." Whatever the case, remember that she has a brother like me. Also, if you've been short of money lately, you can apply for a loan of two billion from Intercontinental Bank of the Atlantic. β
As a result of defeating the vampires of the Bloodwing Grand Duchy head-on in Rochelle Canyon, the Rising Sun Mining Company is also about to have a large amount of revenue in its accounts. Therefore, the financial pressure he is facing now has been greatly reduced.
Now, not only is Atlantic Intercontinental Bank able to get lower interest rates on peer-to-peer lending, but those bankers are also waving cheques in anticipation of Rising Sun's external financing.
Li Mochen has agreed to sell a long-term bond worth 15 billion gold dong to the outside world for the purchase of equipment for the Rising Sun Mining Company, the recruitment of staff and the formation of a mine protection force.
The response from the outside world was very good, and the Rising Sun Group had just released its intentions, and it had already been claimed by major financial institutions. Almost all appraisal agencies have given this bond a high-quality, low-risk rating.
So now he has money again, and his financial burden has been greatly reduced.
And after Li Mochen left, Robespierre twitched the corners of his lips: "Don't forget him? Hehe, is this threatening me?"
He then turned to look at Jennifer, "Jenny, I'd love to see Edmund's fate as miserable as possible, but that's not a wise thing to do. The risk is significant, less than 10 percent according to my calculations. β
"I know!"
Jennifer clenched her fists: "But I still want to try, the lowest is the lowest, it's nothing more than death, which can also affect him, right?"
If it weren't for the obsession with revenge, she wouldn't have planned to live a long time ago.
"Whatever you want!"
Robespierre was suddenly unhappy, and he rolled up all the books provided by Li Mochen: "Give me training now! If you want to counter Edmund, the stronger your physical fitness, the better." Thankfully, that guy didn't destroy your training ground. β
β»β»β»β»
Leaving the 'Scepter of Destruction' magic tower, Li Mochen did not return to Atlanta, he harnessed his 'Land of Destiny' and continued to sail westward into the waters of the Pacific Ocean.
Now that they have arrived on the West Coast, some things happen to be done together, such as Angela's Waidan raw materials, and the Scarlet Dragon Armor's 'Gladiatorial Fighting Theocracy'.
The great battle with Philip I was imminent, and Li Mochen decided to fill up the three parts of the 'gladiatorial theocracy' right now, so that the power of this mythical weapon could reach the maximum.
Li Mochen is no longer ready to pick again, recently he has an in-depth analysis of the 'gladiatorial theocracy', and found that the three powers deprived of this theocracy cannot be replaced and cleaned.
- Although the process is a bit troublesome and requires a lot of materials, it can indeed replace the original one with the power of a higher level of power.
So Li Mochen is no longer scrupulous, and now there is nothing more important than instant combat power. And the 'Scarlet Dragon Armor' in its full state can ensure that even if he faces the gods, he has the power to resist.
In the dark world that happens to correspond to the Pacific Ocean, there are several powerful 'god-like' creatures that can satisfy Li Mochen.
The so-called 'god-like' is equivalent to the 'Blue Marsh Demon Vine', whose strength is above the demigods, close to the gods, but they have not yet condensed the godhead and truly reached this realm.
During the voyage of the Magic Tower, Li Mochen's body stayed on the top floor of the Magic Tower, holding the Sakura Blood Knife in both hands to meditate and participate in the study.
- He is condensing the 'sword intent', that is, the so-called 'piercing', 'must break' and other concepts in the Western world.
Of course, there are also differences, the 'sword intent' is born from rhyme, it is the condensation of spiritual will, and it is vast and encompassing, and it is not as limited and focused as the concept of theocracy in the Western cultivation world.
Li Mochen's previous practice of sword intent included concepts such as 'piercing', 'must break', 'must hit', 'must kill', 'sharp', 'extremely fast', 'extremely cold', 'extremely hot' and so on, which can be regarded as a synthesis of more than a dozen concepts of theocracy.
And his current plan is to try to pick up all the sword intent of his previous life cultivation before he attacks the ancient gods. He doesn't want to improve on the original basis, but at least he has to return to the previous realm!
Li Mochen's current strength is enough, the nineteenth-level Titan Holy Warrior and Dragon Vein Warlock professions, this is equivalent to the 'Return to the Void' realm, and it can return to the void, which is enough to carry the profound sword intent, and push many of the legal powers he has to the ultimate realm.
It's just that the speed at which his cultivation has improved is too fast, and he doesn't have time to cultivate these for a while.
And it is expected that when his "Duality Xuanhua Dafa" is completed, the time period when he enters the ancient god realm, he will be able to contact the 'root' of this world.
Li Mochen naturally would not miss this opportunity, which could allow his ultimate law domain and sword intent to sublimate with it, and naturally enter a higher realm, condensing a stable divine power. Instead of temporarily touching the divine power in the ultimate jurisdiction when fighting, as is the case now.
Li Mochen's spirit is powerful, and he can withstand the refinement of five or six ultimate law domains at the same time, but this is really difficult. It can also be at a disadvantage when it comes to fighting those who truly hold the divine right.
Another day and a half later, the Magic Tower of the 'Land of Destiny' reached the center of the Pacific Ocean. Li Mochen forcibly broke through the spatial barrier here and entered the dark world.
In the Dark World, this is also an endless sea - called the Lightless Sea.
Strangely enough, the terrain of the dark world and the light world are not the same, but the positions of several oceans are almost overlapping, and they are not much different from each other.
The first god-like creature Li Mochen was a 'mirage' that had been active in the vicinity for hundreds of years and had caused more than a dozen shipwrecks.
The dark world and the light world have many spatial gaps, and they are not like the land that can be sealed or used. Therefore, the sea giants in the dark world often enter the light world to spread wild.
Therefore, the existence of trade 'ship groups' is not so much for the merchant shipowners to deal with pirates, but for these large sea creatures.
Among the several god-like creatures that Li Mochen is targeting, the 'mirage' is relatively easy to solve. This huge, island-like creature does not have the bloodline of any great creatures, and its talents and abilities are very simple, with only two types: water and illusion.
However, the Mirage's days in the dark world are far more relaxed than those of other creatures.
It can use illusion to keep dangerous beings away from it, and it can also use illusion to make its prey spontaneously reach its mouth.
And what Li Mochen values is the theocratic ability of the 'Mirage' and its magic energy crystal, which is particularly suitable for Angela.
This time, he not only wants to refine the outer pill for Angela, but also strengthens the 'Loki's deceptive hand' by the way, and it is best to be able to completely retain the 'mirage' divine power and reach the level of mythical armament, or quasi-mythological armament.
The difficulty of hunting the Mirage is also low, as long as its illusion abilities can be ignored. Then the combat power of this god-like creature is far inferior to that blue swamp demon vine, and at this time, he is not what it used to be.
However, although Li Mochen had already mastered the accurate information of the 'mirage' before setting off, he also had a wishing technique to lock the location of this giant sea creature. But above the sea of light, he still searched for a day and a night before he found the whereabouts of the 'mirage'.
The latter's illusion ability is too good. Even if Li Mochen had opened the 'Eye of Titan' and the 'True Dragon Gaze' the whole time, he had missed it several times.
One of them, the 'mirage' was three thousand meters under Li Mochen's feet, but he still passed by without realizing it. It was completely relied on the 'Zhou Tian Divine Machine Xuanshu Locking Star Secret Method' and the qi of merit to determine its location little by little.
And the process of fighting is lackluster. When Li Mochen's mind locked the 'mirage', the latter had no possibility of escaping.
Its illusion ability is indeed very powerful, but Li Mochen has a secret method of breaking illusions. Before he arrived, he had already made enough preparations, and had acquired several potions that could protect his mind from being affected by bad effects, and the 'Eye of Titans' and the 'True Dragon Gaze' themselves also had certain powers to destroy illusions.
In addition, there is also the wishing technique - Li Mochen used more than a thousand wisps of merit to make a wish that he would not be affected by any harm within two hours. Then it took him only fifty minutes to kill the 'mirage' on the surface of the lightless sea.
