Chapter 404: Thunder Spear Tucker
Remiel transformed into a white dove, like a wisp of a ghost wandering between the heavens and earth of this continent.
As a former messenger of a deity, she possessed the fastest speed on this continent ‘theoretically’.
No one could be faster than her.
This was a rule she had mastered after becoming a deity, and her domain was her limit speed.
Not only fast,
she could also see things that others could not.
Including,
the gazes cast by the gods from the outer realms and the astral plane, and all kinds of divine punishments attempting to break through the barrier.
“Whoosh!”
With a gentle flap of her wings, Remiel manifested her human form.
“Old friend.”
She turned her head to look at the void, lowering her head and speaking:
“It must have been four hundred years since we last met, you’ve finally deigned to come out of that place.”
“The aura of death is unprecedentedly dense, of course I’m curious.” A black figure holding a huge scythe appeared in mid-air, his cold eyes staring directly at Remiel:
“Have you found it?”
“No.”
Remiel shook her head helplessly:
“Not even a clue.”
“Child of Destruction…” the black figure murmured:
“It’s inextricably linked to the Blood Clan.”
“Yes.”
Remiel nodded:
“The first Night Watchman went to the Blood Clan’s Holy Sanctuary, and the Blood Clan’s elders are also unaware of it.”
“You should know, they couldn’t possibly hide it from that Night Watchman.”
The Night Watchmen organization was able to become a transcendent power on par with the Pantheon of Gods and the Blood League, and even slightly above them. Although it had the backing of the government and the military, it also had a deep foundation.
Just like.
The first Night Watchman.
That mysterious fifth-order powerhouse, nicknamed Eye of Insight, possessed the special ability to distinguish between truth and illusion.
“Unaware doesn’t mean unrelated.” The black figure continued:
“The Blood Clan needs to pay the price for this.”
?
Remiel raised an eyebrow.
“You plan to take advantage of this opportunity to attack the Blood Clan?”
“Hell, the Blood Clan has the Godslayer and Thunder Spear, and I’m not a fifth-order powerhouse specialized in combat.”
“This is an opportunity.” ‘God of Death’ Hell, one of the three powerhouses of the Pantheon of Gods, said coldly:
“The Night Watchmen will help us.”
“After all, it was the people of the Blood Clan who attracted the divine punishment, and the means left behind by the gods protect this continent, they know which side they should choose.”
Remiel was thoughtful.
She knew the hatred between ‘God of Death’ Hell and the Blood League’s God Devourer, the two sides were already locked in an endless feud.
This was indeed an opportunity to annihilate the Blood Clan.
However,
with divine punishment descending, all living beings would be plunged into ruin, at this time they should unite all forces that could be united.
“Hell.”
Remiel sighed:
“Does it really have to be this way?”
“You can choose not to act.” Hell took a step back, his body merging into the darkness, only his faint voice came:
“Just like when all living beings fell, you also chose to retreat, after all, no one can catch up to you.”
“…Alright.” Remiel’s face showed helplessness:
“But before we act, perhaps we should give each other a chance.”
“A chance?”
Hell said:
“Unless they hand over the Child of Destruction.”

A book was placed in front of Karl, and he was turning page after page, while Rui Li sat opposite him, slowly sipping her coffee.
“This world is changing so fast, it’s only been less than two months, and it’s already become so unfamiliar.”
They were on the fourth floor of the academy library, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the students passing by below.
It was different from a few months ago.
Many students had changed their majors, and the previously unpopular archeology and theology had become popular.
“Two months ago, ancient fossils were discovered in the Kesi Mountains, including several ancient giant corpses over ten meters tall.”
“A month ago, a mirage appeared over Diluocui City, with hundreds of terrifying creatures appearing, and one of the creatures, a demonic wolf with eight heads, actually existed, and slaughtered thousands of people.”
“A few days ago, underground cave ruins…”
“Sigh!”
She sighed softly:
“How did it become like this?”
Various existences and phenomena that could not be explained by science were revealed by the Night Watchmen one by one, which also caused a nationwide craze.
◈◈◈
Mysticism, theology, and supernatural powers were gradually becoming known.
As the university that was the first to accept advanced knowledge, it was the first to make changes, and even opened supernatural courses.
The changes were indeed great.
“Have you ever thought, maybe the world was always like this, we just didn’t know it before?” Karl raised his head:
“Don’t worry, just live your life as you should?”
“I’m afraid that’s impossible.” Rui Li shook her head:
“During this period, too many people have gone missing or died. It’s said that there are three streets in the city that devour people. As long as you walk in at a specific time, you will disappear, but no one knows which street or what time.”
“Maybe…”
“I will also disappear one day like Blaze and Monica.”
“You’re under a lot of pressure.” Karl said:
“That’s not good.”
“I understand.” Rui Li sighed:
“But there’s no way around it.”
“By the way.”
She glanced at the book in Karl’s hand and said:
“I heard that the library has a strange book, all those who read the book will become characters in the book, and others will not know that anyone has disappeared, so it’s best not to read any books during this time.”
“If the people who disappear are unknown, then how does anyone know about such a book?” Karl closed the book:
“You’re overthinking it.”
“Maybe.”
Rui Li shrugged.
She was not overthinking it, that book really existed, it was a divine punishment that pulled living beings into another dimension.
Originally, the book would be scattered in various places, and all those who read it would fall into the stories within.
Until.
This world had no one who could read, and wisdom could not be passed down.
And that book was now in Karl’s hands, analyzing divine punishment would also be of great benefit to him.
He could use this to understand the methods of the deities.
“Professor Karl.”
At this time.
A student ran upstairs and said:
“Someone is looking for you downstairs.”
“Oh!”
Karl raised an eyebrow:
“Looking for me?”
How could that be?
He was a fifth-order deity, an ancient knight, not to mention that someone called his name, even if they thought of him in their hearts, he could sense it.
Now someone had actually come to his door.
He adjusted his clothes, and leaning on his cane, he came to the first floor, and saw the figure waiting in front of the library door.
This was a handsome man, his features like a perfect stone sculpture carved with a knife and axe.
His figure was even perfect to the extreme.
Even,
his temperament was so flawless that no one could find any fault.
The women passing by all subconsciously stopped, unwilling to take their eyes away for a long time, and before long, a crowd had gathered.
“Professor Karl.”
Seeing Karl come out, the man placed one hand on his chest, his upper body slightly forward, and performed an ancient salute:
“We meet again.”
“It’s you!”
Karl sighed softly:
“Thunder Spear Tucker.”
“I don’t remember us ever meeting.”
“Signo City.” Tucker said:
“At that time, I had just come into contact with war, and you were just an insignificant wizard apprentice.”
They had glanced at each other from afar, and at that time neither had paid any attention to it, never expecting that they would meet again after so many years.
Their identities,
were also completely different now.
