Chapter 516: Chapter 461: The Price (4K)

Darker than dusk, redder than blood, time flows endlessly, your strength remains eternal,

In your name, I swear in the darkness, all foolish things blocking my way shall inevitably perish by our power.

The spell just surfaced in my heart, and the immense magic power gathered spontaneously.

The Light Saber in Mobius’s hand burst forth with blinding red light, illuminating half the night sky, and then the light shot out like a beam across the city skyline.

The intense heat of the aftermath melted the metal components of the London Eye. River water boiled and churned, and raindrops evaporated mid-air.

Ancient trees by the embankment, along with their roots, were uprooted and charred.

The vector nozzles at the back of the mechanical entities struggled to change direction, paying the price of having half their body scorched to basic particles, barely dodging the range of the Dragon Breaking Slash.

Its ruined body sprayed oil mixed with blood all the way as it staggered down, crashing into the water tower of a high-rise hotel.

The water tower toppled, rolled off the rooftop, and crashed heavily to the ground, crushing a new car.

Ssshh——

The intense noise from the beams burning the air shattered numerous glass panes along the way, and the residents of London City reacted belatedly, covering their ears and screaming shrilly.

Most people, in a panic, scurried under beds, trembling,

A few clever ones noticed the power outage in the city and all vehicles stalled on the roads. Without time to put on shoes, they hurriedly called their families, grabbed gas masks, flashlights, and insulated space blankets, and rushed downstairs as fast as they could to hide in underground parking lots, subway tunnels, and other human protection facilities.

They were correct, the two eyeballs in Mobius’s sockets were drowned and replaced by pure energy.

His eyes shot out light, veins bulging on his face, arms “dried” from carrying the immense energy, he strained to lift the sword of Britannia again, pointing it at the mechanical entities.

The Eight Rings Shaping Magic spell created by Hornheim, [Breath of Annihilation].

An ominous breeze crossed the Thames River, blowing towards the high-rise buildings.

The remaining limbs of the mechanical entities pushed the rooftop ground hard, using the reaction force to propel themselves off the rooftop, while a thick long tail hooked the hotel’s outer wall, swinging it downward, narrowly avoiding the seemingly harmless breeze.

Shhh——

Without any sign or warning, the top floor of the hotel high-rise, ceiling, walls along with the floor were directly erased.

Leaving a pair of middle-aged men and women caught in the act, clothes half-worn, staring blankly at the open rooftop and the rainy night sky.

“Is this the foundation of a top guild…”

On the other side of the Earth, Zhangsun Yao was intently staring at the screen showing near-Earth orbit satellite footage broadcast by the Whale Song Guild, nervously biting her nails.

From sheer destructive power, Mobius wielding the Light Sword had reached a natural disaster level, essentially a one-man army in the literal sense.

If it were swapped with their group of players…

Zhangsun Yao pondered for a moment, apart from the specially skilled White Horse Tombstone, no one else could last a single round.

The live stream was flooded with bullet comments, many expressing regret for Pifu.

Under the hierarchical killing field system, challenging across levels and winning the strong with weak is still too difficult.

Some comments even petitioned that they belonged to GS Biotechnology, paying the Bell Tower Guild to preserve parts of the monster’s body fragments for research.

Amidst the lamentations, an anonymous user sent a nose-picking emoji, [It’s not over yet]

Immediately a comment doubted, [Not over yet? Brother, are you blind or just stubborn?]

Other comments echoed, [Classic argumentative personality. I have a buddy who games with me, and I asked if I’m always wrong, he replied, “Wrong! This statement is correct.”]

Facing numerous mocking comments, the anonymous user remained unperturbed, calmly stating,

[If you all go back and watch Flynet’s long-ago “Death Curse” mission recordings you would know, since becoming a player, this Pifu reached Level 21 in less than a year total, achieving S or S+ ratings on average for each mission. With such talent, if he became a player when the killing field opened, he could already be Level 40]

[With such temperament, will, and mind, do you really think he’d take such high risks without a contingency?]

[Just watch and see]

Zhangsun Yao thoughtfully watched that comment float by, disappearing on the far left of the screen,

Meanwhile, a new change appeared in the visuals.

The mass dexterously shuttled between high-rises, using buildings to block and evade the spells Mobius hurled from afar.

The self-healing genes of the Insect Lord Demon continued to take effect, cells rapidly divided, mending wounds, and regenerating flesh.

The cat-and-mouse game couldn’t last long, allowing the mass to run rampant in London City would result in destruction comparable to the Light Speed Elbow Strike.

Standing on the London Eye, Mobius’s expression was fierce, leaning against the Ferris wheel’s metal beam, his left hand took a large piece of black onyx from a space item and placed it on the blade of the Light Sword.

Using onyx as casting material, he unleashed the Eight Rings Plastic Gravity Magic——[Dark Star].

Crackle!

Intense electrical noises cracked in the air, and in front of the flight-operating mass, a black sphere about 13 meters in diameter appeared out of nowhere.

Composed entirely of Dark Magic, it continuously released terrifying gravity and destructive energy.

Surrounding buildings collapsed like tofu, cars parked on the street were attracted by the gravity, slowly floated up, flying towards the black sphere, and were torn to shreds by destructive energy halfway there.
