93: Chapter 93 The Death Knell Tolls!
In a medium-sized city-state five hundred miles away from Star Glory City, over a hundred Students gathered inside the temple.
"Now is the best opportunity. If we don't fight now, that guy named Chen Mo will have already conquered Sun Wheel City."} one person said indignantly.
Hearing these words, many people showed resentment, but even more felt a sense of powerlessness.
Why were so many Students gathered here at Star Glory City? Was it because they wanted to be here? No, they were forced here by Chen Mo.
"That bastard, it's not enough for him to eat the meat; he won't even leave us a drop of soup."} another person complained.
However, there was nothing wrong with those words. Almost the entire Sun Wheel Clan territory had now become Chen Mo's domain, including the native city-states that the Students had already occupied.
"No, you guys are too useless. Dozens of people were driven over here by just one person."
A 'local' Student couldn't help but speak up.
As soon as this was said, many people looked at Wei Qin with teasing glances.
"Actually, it's not like we didn't think about resisting."
A Student who had followed Wei Qin to seek refuge couldn't help but retort.
"You didn't see it—tens of millions of threads of faith! I could freaking see that sea of faith from hundreds of miles away. If it were you, would you dare to go?"
"Setting aside Chen Mo's personal strength, if someone pulls out ten thousand Divine Power to condense a shield, you wouldn't even be able to break it."
Silence, a long silence.
"Alright."
Seeing that the atmosphere wasn't right, Yan Mingxuan quickly interrupted the discussion about Chen Mo.
"Regardless, Star Glory City must be attacked," Yan Mingxuan said decisively.
"That's right. Now is the best time, and it's our last chance to 'harvest' points," Wei Qin echoed.
With the two leaders speaking up, the other Students quickly responded in agreement.
But in a corner of the crowd, four people were whispering something, their expressions quite strange.
"No, Zhou Tong, you've already met Chen Mo, so why did you run over here too? He wouldn't even leave you a bit of soup?"
"Uh... not exactly. That guy did leave me a few native city-states."
"Then why did you run here?" Bai Yuanyu said, feeling a bit frustrated at his lack of ambition.
If he hadn't been reluctant to leave the foundation he had built 'together' with Wu Feng, he would have defected to Chen Mo long ago.
"I didn't want to either, but except for those few city-states, even the tree roots within a thousand-mile radius have been gnawed clean by those 'living corpses.'"
"The natives need to eat too. I can't possibly use Divine Power to supply them, can I?"
Zhou Tong's teeth were tightly clenched; even as an 'ally,' he was disgusted by Chen Mo's perverted plague system.
...
"Run! No matter where you go, just don't look back."
On the endless grassland, a young Sun Wheel Clan boy was running desperately, tears shimmering in his eyes.
Three hours ago, Sun Wheel City fell.
The First Knight of the Sun Wheel, Baron, died in battle; the new Great Priest, Kuka, died in battle; and his grandfather, Kane, most likely died at the hands of The Third Star God.
The three demigods of the Sun Wheel Clan died just like that. The Sun Wheel Clan... no, perhaps from today onwards, there is no more Sun Wheel Clan.
"Sigh!"
A sigh suddenly sounded.
Kailuo, who was frantically fleeing toward the edge of the continent, trembled all over and looked in disbelief at the 'young' figure that appeared before him.
The other party was clearly of the same generation as his grandfather, but now he looked almost the same age as him.
"As 'kindred,' even if you run to the ends of the earth, I can still sense your existence. You... cannot escape."
Katos looked at Kailuo with a smile. With a gentle hook of his right hand, the boy was already in front of him.
"Ninth-tier Extraordinary, you really grow fast!"
Katos stroked the boy's cheek as if he were stroking a precious artifact, his outstretched right hand trembling slightly.
"Don't look at me like that." Katos's voice was very gentle, but Kailuo couldn't say a word, and his originally youthful face was aging at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Everything is for the clan. Believe me, your sacrifice is meaningful. I will lead..."
"Swish!"
Before he could finish his 'acceptance speech,' a spear covered in blood-colored dragon scales shot toward him.
"alien god!"
Golden light erupted in Katos's eyes as majestic Power Of Faith and magic power burst forth simultaneously, dispersing this second-tier fusion divine art with a single strike.
"This guy..."
Chen Mo, who had finally arrived in a hurry, stared solemnly at Katos. But before he could continue his attack, a notification sound suddenly rang out.
"Special Achievement [Strangle] has been changed."
"New Achievement: [Son of the Plane · Katos] {30,000 Points}"
Description: The Pseudo-Son of the Plane 'Katos' has met the promotion conditions. Please prevent him from completing the subsequent promotion ritual.
"30,000 points!"
Chen Mo looked at Katos in astonishment.
Katos was also looking at him, a flash of realization suddenly crossing his eyes.
"A voice has been telling me to go east..." Katos tossed aside the young man who had already turned into a mummified corpse and walked slowly toward Chen Mo.
"I ignored it, because compared to dealing with you..."
Boom!
A thunderclap exploded in the sky.
Bathed in the lightning, Katos looked at Chen Mo with a cruel smile, looking at this ant that he felt he could crush with one hand.
"Do you see? This is my current power. This world is cheering for me!"
"Are you finished?"
Under the curtain of rain and lightning, Chen Mo looked at Katos as if he were looking at an idiot, slowly raising his right hand.
In the sky, from a perspective invisible to a 'wild god' like Katos, over a hundred million threads of faith had completely enveloped this world.
And in Chen Mo's hand, a blood-colored magic-patterned pistol appeared.
Click!
A divine art bullet was ejected and caught in Chen Mo's palm, while the empty chamber in the gun body had already manifested a new bullet.
The next second!
The death knell 'tolled'!
