AnalogHorror: Rule Kaidan 4016

Chapter 1545 - 734: Old Friends Gradually Withering Away (Part 2)

"Deep transition?" Kuai Hongji’s face changed slightly, but after a brief consideration, he understood, "You want to reverse-utilize the fluctuation of the ’Angel’ and use its path to break through the dimensional shackles?"

The Astrologer gently pushed the gold-rimmed glasses up his nose.

This action made Kuai Hongji instinctively squint his eyes, but he said nothing.

The Astrologer continued, "Entering the ’Root’ will inevitably trigger the ’Angel’. The future is predetermined, so it’s fine if we bypass some ’processes’."

"You don’t seem very keen on entering the ’Returning Ruins’ territory?" Kuai Hongji pondered aloud.

The Astrologer’s gaze unintentionally swept past the captain’s cabin: "I always feel like something’s not right."

Kuai Hongji seemed to understand a little, nodding slightly: "You spread out the Star Map, you make the decision. However... some things are already destined. If you know, it might be better."

The Astrologer glared at him angrily and kicked at him in frustration, "What do you mean? Are you still playing dumb with me?"

Facing the deadly high heels, Kuai Hongji couldn’t dodge in time, so he had to grab them.

"You...!" Just as the gold-haired glasses-wearer was about to flare up, suddenly—

"Boom—!"

The Secret Pattern Matrix started vibrating violently, and the entire Layer Boat began to tremble.

"First, handle the urgent matter!" Kuai Hongji hurriedly discarded the high heels and quickly took hold of the Star Map Scroll, swiftly marking the coordinates.

The Astrologer, seeing this, bit her lip, put away her bare foot, and her fingers glided rapidly over the surface of the "Star Dream Crystal," as if playing a silent symphony.

Within the Star Dream Crystal, nebula patterns emerged, and at the edges of those patterns, strands of golden brilliance began to appear.

At this moment, Amon’s Secret Pattern Cannon was also ready, and an enormous Secret Pattern Totem seemed to be magnified in the void. Immediately, a concentrated light beam appeared fiercely, but as it fired, its tip split like a rainstorm of pear blossom needles, all rushing towards the crack at the ’Angel’ fluctuation.

The originally twisting world became even more terrifying, the swelling Gray Mist Sea became more turbulent, and it seemed that this shot did nothing to change things—instead, it exponentially increased the world’s danger.

Yet no one questioned Amon’s methods.

The Astrologer’s nimble fingers moved swiftly, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"There!"

She suddenly exclaimed, and within the Star Map, the twisted star marks crisscrossed like the veins of leaves, suddenly indicating a path.

Lin Yi, Tian Bufan, and the others exerted their strength together again, causing the Layer Boat to roar to life once more, stretching infinitely and rushing towards the path indicated by the Astrologer.

Around them, the world kept collapsing—what was visible to the naked eye, and what was seen through perception, all were being destroyed in an incomprehensible manner. The entire Gray Mist Sea was like being crumpled and torn apart, edging toward destruction!

Under this force of annihilation, the Layer Boat clumsily traversed, like a person desperately trying to escape from a collapsing glacier gorge.

"Damn it, the destruction of this world is faster than us!" the Astrologer shouted anxiously.

"My cannon can’t wield such power!" Amon shouted, his music box body clanking, "It must be because the ’Angel’ truly sensed our threat, so it descends at this critical moment, intending to destroy us!"

Tian Bufan said loudly, "Isn’t this great news?! It means—we must be succeeding this time, which is why it wants to kill us! And it chooses the first moment we arrive at the Gray Mist Sea!"

"Here! This moment! Is the optimal point for it to snuff us out!!"

"Then we mustn’t let it succeed," the Boss’s cold voice echoed around the ship, "Keep moving forward, I’ll stop it!"

"Why must you act?!" Just as the Boss was about to make a move, a gigantic, blood-red "Kill" character broke through the stillness, and the Butcher’s maniacal laughter filled the night sky, "Save your strength. Let us handle a threat of this magnitude!"

"Hohohohoho... Ten Directions Blood Butcher—’Kill’!!"

The "Kill" character pierced the sky, yet the aura of destruction lingering in the world still existed; countless pale golden mist tendril-like appendages emerging from the fractured space, destroying the entire world from within.

In a bizarre turn of events, after the "Kill" character broke through the sky, it remarkably seemed to reach the same level as the destructive wave, forcibly tearing open a breach in this almost torn-apart Gray Mist Sea world!

Even though it was merely a wave from the ’Angel’s’ true body, and though the ’Angel’s’ true body still lay in an unknown dimension and void, at this moment, the Butcher had evidently elevated his power to the level of an ’Angel’s’ wave!

This was the Butcher at his peak!

Comparable to the Honorary Title Level "Original Apostles" Butcher!

At this moment, the Butcher had reached the ship’s edge, where the blood-colored "Kill" character gradually transformed from traditional to seal script, then into a more abstract and ancient symbolic form.

Around him, the space began to distort, with countless terrifying and twisted powers clinging like evil sigils, rendering the "Kill" character even more horrific.

He looked at Wei Shan beside him, grinning, "If I die, carry on my will, and continue forward."
