143: Reality, job transfer successful
time outside, Moon Shadow Royal Capital.
On the city wall.
Maggus looked at the void battlefield in the distance with disbelief.
"Hell Army, gone?"
"Terrifying Demon King, dead?"
"The Queen and Time Knight, both perished with the demons?"
Smack!
The Old Sword Saint’s beard trembled with anger, and he slapped himself hard.
"You old useless fool, why didn’t you protect the Queen in the end! Why?!"
On the city wall.
All the surviving soldiers should have cheered, but without the Queen, who were they to cheer for?
Lost?
Astonished!
At a loss.
Everyone stood there blankly, as if they were wooden stakes.
"Damn it!"
Maggus looked at the Mirror of Truth in his hand and couldn't help but laugh: "I passed the trial and obtained the Supreme Divine Artifact, thinking I could change everything. Now... now everything is gone, what use is this divine artifact to me?"
His Holiness, Magic Master Kahn sighed inwardly upon hearing this: "Child, this is not your fault. I should have given it to you earlier. Now everything is too late. This Mirror of Truth..."
At this point, Kahn paused slightly, his expression gradually becoming firm: "The Mirror of Truth is an absolute taboo. Only my Mage Tower can suppress the evil within it. Give it to me. You have no use for it now."
Give?
Maggus's pupils trembled, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on the divine artifact, saying:
"The Mirror of Truth, it shouldn't be some evil demonic artifact, right?"
"I think... there's no need to continue sealing and suppressing it."
"Besides."
"Although the Hell Army has retreated, it's only limited to the area around the Royal Capital. There are still more Demon Kings outside. Now that we don't have a Demon King, how can we resist if something happens again?"
Kahn listened to his explanation, and his expression not only did not soften, but instead became as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Child, you don't understand the evil and danger of the Mirror of Truth. Never listen to any whispers in your heart, because none of that is your true thought, but rather something the Mirror forces upon you, understand?"
"Now, giving the Mirror to me is the safest option. If there are still battles in the future, I will take it out and give it to you in advance!"
Maggus fell silent.
He looked at the two Saints in front of him, but a whisper sounded in his heart.
"This old man no longer trusts you... Next time? Will he still give you the Mirror next time? Hehehe... You are truly too naive..."
"Are you afraid?"
"No..."
"They should be afraid of you!"
"Almost all of the Saints of the Kingdom have fallen. The last two old geezers who don't have much life left, what do you have to be afraid of?"
"Although the Queen is gone, there is still the princess..."
"Defeat the Hell Army, marry the nine princesses, and you will naturally become the King of Moon Shadow... The eternal King!!"
"What are you still hesitating for?"
"You know, you are now only one step away from becoming the King of Moon Shadow... just one last step!"
Maggus's eyes gradually calmed down, a smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out to hand over the Mirror.
"Yes, His Holiness is right. The Mirror is useless to me now..."
Kahn breathed a sigh of relief at the sight and reached out to take it.
Just as his hand was about to touch the Mirror...
A flash of sword light instantly streaked past.
It went straight for Kahn's brow.
Clang~
Another sword shadow was even faster, arriving later but reaching first, actually blocking the sword that was meant to take Kahn's life.
"Damn old man!"
Maggus couldn't help but curse inwardly at the sight.
Just now, the Old Sword Saint had been wallowing in self-pity, and he hadn't paid attention, thinking he could finish him off with a casual sword strike later.
Who knew...
Even His Holiness Kahn had believed him, but the Old Sword Saint didn't, and had been prepared on the side early on.
Heh~
The Old Sword Saint couldn't help but sneer coldly when he saw Maggus's deflated expression:
"Silly child, I'm just old, not dead!"
Then.
The Old Sword Saint said to the side: "My old partner, now I admit your judgment about the Mirror. Such a thing should not exist in this world. Even if used temporarily, it's just destroying one demon while creating another, even more terrifying demon!"
"Kill!"
Kahn knew the Mirror too well.
"This young man cannot be allowed to live. Anyone who cannot suppress the evil of the Mirror must die, otherwise there will be endless trouble!"
The Old Sword Saint naturally knew, and with a shake of the sword light in his hand, he charged towards Maggus.
"Hahahaha, kill me?"
Maggus laughed loudly as he retreated.
"Do you two old geezers deserve to kill me?"
"I, who wield the Mirror of Truth, will soon become the eternal King, and you... don't even have the right to submit at my feet!"
As he spoke.
A thousand sword lights bloomed on the city wall, each capable of instantly killing a legendary professional.
Maggus was within them, his entire body was cut into pieces, but not a single drop of blood was left. On his shattered face, he was still smiling.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Just wait..."
"I hope you can live a little longer, live to witness the day I ascend to become the eternal King, hahahaha~"
Maggus's voice echoed from all directions.
In every reflective mirror, there was Maggus's unrestrained face.
A moment later.
All the reflections of Maggus disappeared from the mirrors.
Pfft!
The Old Sword Saint finally couldn't hold back, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, laughing bitterly:
"Heh, when a person reaches the age to die, there's no stopping it..."
"However... this child mastered the Mirror too quickly."
"If only I still had a third of my strength from back then, I would surely have cut off this brat's head!!"
Kahn sighed in his heart.
"The Queen has fallen, and now, besides the Hell Army, there's another true demon coveting the Kingdom..."
"It's over... It's all over..."
Maggus was hidden in the shadows nearby, he hadn't left, especially seeing the Old Sword Saint in this state, he felt a bit of an urge to act.
But.
He wasn't sure if this old man was just putting on an act again. What if he went up and the old man gave him another sword strike to awaken him?
"Forget it..."
"Why do you need to kill these two old geezers? They'll probably die on their own in a few days..."
"Yes, I should quickly master the Sword Saint inheritance, break through to the Saint Domain, and become a Demigod!" After Maggus made up his mind, he no longer hesitated. Using all the surrounding mirrored light and shadows, he vanished from the Royal Capital in a few flashes.
......
On the other side.
Lin Ye, however, was squeezed into a void by the Space-Time Singularity.
Looking around.
He could vaguely see some extremely faint lights, which seemed to be twinkling stars.
"Space-time fragments?"
Lin Ye was indeed familiar with this place, because this was the Forgotten Land with no foothold.
No~
It should be said there were no star rivers.
The number of stars around was too few, but the space-time storm was more violent.
At the same time.
The Moon Shadow Arrow in Lin Ye's hand vibrated slightly.
Shadow Moon Yao, defying all objections, transformed back into her true form and directly threw herself into Lin Ye's embrace, holding him tightly...
"This King will never allow you to leave! Never!"
Lin Ye's lips showed a hint of helpless bitter smile.
"The key is that this isn't up to you, nor is it up to me, but rather..."
"But rather what?" Shadow Moon Yao asked back, raising her head: "Even if I am eternally exiled in this void of space and time, this King is not afraid!"
Lin Ye found it difficult to explain for a moment, and as he was thinking...
"Ding~"
"You have completed the Class Change Trial!"
The moment the prompt sounded.
The Time Wheel Star Key on Lin Ye's chest radiated dazzling light, and a light from the distant void, no one knew how far away, also responded.
Whoosh!
A beam of starlight directly enveloped Lin Ye and Shadow Moon Yao.
Teleportation!
The next second.
The two appeared in the ruins.
"We're back so soon?" Shadow Moon Yao was a little surprised, but then she remembered it was the supreme treasure of the Eternal Empire, and she felt relieved.
Hiss!!!
Lin Ye, however, suddenly gasped, taking a sharp breath.
Holy crap!
Could he really come back from there?
