Looking back now, after old James left the Goblin Kingdom, he probably went to The Theocracy.
Because the loyal old butler Oswald was always with James Sr. at that time.
Even before and after the Loki incident, Aiwass's sister Freya had contact with Oswald. At that time, Oswald gave Freya some tips from James, indicating that at that time Oswald
We have been able to get in touch with James. So after James leaves the Goblin Kingdom, he should first meet up with Oswald.
Originally, Aiwass always felt that his adoptive father was inscrutable and always had a sense of awe towards him. One of the reasons was because Aiwass knew that he would become a world-class BOSS in the future and lacked understanding of him.
Fear is born from the unknown.
But now Aiwass knows why his adoptive father embarked on the path of BOSS in the first place - he originally thought that he could see into the future, but when the ceremony of the linking ring was completed, he suddenly realized... the development direction of this world has nothing to do with the development direction of the world.
What he knew was completely different!
It was probably from that time that James lost the calm demeanor that always seemed to have everything in hand. It was also from that time that James realized that he had to seek change - so he started to arrange crazy plots.
, seize power by any means necessary.
Old James's initial understanding of the world did not include the possibility of energy levels above the sixth level!
Therefore, he must not be strong enough at this time! Because in his knowledge, there has never been the possibility of "fighting against Tiansi"!
This also made Aiwass admire his adoptive father a little more:
Aiwass is now fully aware of what "knowledge is poisonous"... Once some mistakes and outdated information are known, the harm is even greater than not knowing anything. That is not only to find the right path, but also
You must be keen to find out the unreliable ones from the countless information, common sense, intelligence, and secrets you know.
For Aiwass, who didn't know that many secrets, this was already extremely difficult.
Not to mention old James, who has memories of past lives and has mastered the stargazing tantra.
——Under the interference of a lot of wrong information, James relied on his own ability to find the power to overtake in corners. As a result, his strength increased by leaps and bounds when the version was updated, and he became the world BOSS!
...But even such a powerful old James is still under the control of Huan Tiansi.
Unlike his grandfather Jacob, who was an apostle of Huantiansi, old James was not a subordinate or believer of Huantiansi, but an important chess piece of Huantiansi like Aiwas. From this perspective, he can also
He is considered one of the victims of Huan Tiansi.
After young James mastered the stargazing tantra as a human in the past, Anna, a loyal apostle of Huantiansi, came to him. For an innocent young man, Anna's charm ability was irresistible... so he
Freya came naturally.
And the soul "from the survivors of the end of the world" was also recruited by Anna and implanted into James. But as a night demon, she should not have such an ability at all... This kind of power involving reincarnation must be related to Huantian
Si is related to it. So the birth of James was planned by Huantian Si from at least a week ago, and his soul should have been brought back by the power of reincarnation!
Aiwass didn’t know what Huantiansi’s specific arrangements were for James Lao, but he could clearly realize one thing:
——This is the time to break the situation!
Now that Tiansi has just landed, the upper limit of the world level has not yet been opened, and old James has not yet started to become stronger by leaps and bounds... He is only a fifth-level astrologer at most.
And Aiwass has reached a peak of strength, and ordinary fifth-level players can no longer stand in front of him for more than a few rounds.
Their relationship of strength, at least at this moment, has quietly changed.
Who would have thought that Aiwass would suddenly run to find old James on the eve of the duel with the Fallen Division?
——At least Huan Tiansi would never guess it! Because even Aiwass himself two days ago had no such idea at all!
Now that Anna is dead, her soul has not been sent to Huantiansi's kingdom, but she doesn't know when Huantiansi will react. The window period left for Aiwass is very short - so this attack must be carried out no matter what.
Get results!
But when Aiwass prayed to the Lord of Scale Feathers for advanced divine magic, he got good news.
Aiwass no longer needs to go to The Theocracy to find someone...because old James is now in Star Antimony, and is not far from him.
He had indeed heard before that Old James seemed to be going to Star Antimony to attend a party or some other activity. But Aiwass did not expect that after Fallen Sky Division had controlled Star Antimony for half a month, Old James
But he still stayed in Star Antimony.
Aiwass asked the Lord of Scale Feathers for a spell to obscure the stars, put on his cloak and moved forward at high speed in a state of invisibility, following the locked position in his consciousness, traveling at high speed and silently!
But the further Aiwas walked, the more he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
——This is not a residential area, but a blocked ruins area.
Because of Xing Antimony's special archaeological system, they will delineate ancient ruins with archaeological value and usually not allow anyone to develop them. They will wait for archaeologists from other countries to come in at their own expense and help them fish out the things - if the army is allowed to directly
If you go in for "archeology", the things inside will be too easily damaged or misappropriated. It is better to put them here to attract talents.
Once all the valuable items are dug out, the site can be transformed into a tourist attraction.
Now that the Star Antimony Army has been paralyzed, the cordons here have also become dilapidated. You can still see the roadblocks and iron walls blocking the cars, as well as the wires wrapped around the iron walls, and the barbed wires above the iron walls.
, and the wires were coated with poisonous ointment. Not only were they not allowed to enter, they were not even allowed to take a look from afar - even taking a look required money.
But precisely because of this, this ruins area can still preserve the appearance of the Herasl Empire as much as possible.
This gradually gave Aiwass a sense of familiarity.
——He seems to have been here.
Thinking of this, Aiwass' pace gradually slowed down.
He looked around, feeling more and more familiar.
When Aiwass continued to move forward according to the position, he was suddenly stunned.
Everything in front of me overlapped with the scenes in Selene's memory in the past.
"Theresa's Abbey..."
Aiwass murmured in a low voice, frowning slightly.
Why...does your adoptive father come here?
The only thing here seems to be Sister Sasha... which means Wu Tiansi's hands are somewhat valuable now.
Does he want to use this to obtain the fragments of Tiansi?
Thinking of this, Aiwass called on the power of the Lord of Scale Feathers to make himself invisible.
Because there was a faint sound of fighting coming from the front.
Aiwass remained invisible and approached the monastery.
In the courtyard inside the monastery, there was suddenly an almost crazy roar.
His messy and dry blood-colored hair hangs down to his thighs, and he also has a dark red beard. The beard spreads to the temples and is connected to the hair on the temples, while the beard on his chin hangs down to his chest.
The guy's body was so dry that he looked like a patient who had been ill for a long time, but some muscles could be seen - those dark brown muscles were directly covering the bones and wrapped in skin, which looked reminiscent of dehydrated beef jerky.
.
His expression was extremely ferocious, he was drooling, and his eyes were staring with a large proportion of whites. The whites of those eyes had turned dark brown, and only bright red vertical pupils as slender as a cat could be seen.
——Aiwass knows it.
This crazy beast is the BOSS of this dungeon. A fifth-level son of the moon, the Bloodmane Beast, who lost his heart because he had not sucked blood for a long time.
He had another decent name hundreds of years ago.
Director Cornelius, the external person in charge of Arc Moon Manor. He was very rude to Aiwass when Aiwass played "No. 14" in a certain promotion ceremony. But now he seems to have completely lost it.
As a rational child of the moon, Aiwass felt gloating about his misfortune, but also felt a little sad.
He and other children of the Moon in Arc Moon Manor were fixed near Teresa Monastery due to blood contracts, so they could not leave here. And because of Star Antimony’s restrictions on archeology—the ghosts and the Heartless Children of the Moon here occasionally
It also makes crazy howls, so it scares people away from entering.
Except for some "adventurers" who think they are good enough to secretly bypass Star Antimony's cordon by digging tunnels, jumping, etc., no one has dared to enter it for hundreds of years. And those who have been hungry for too long have lost their minds here.
The Son of the Moon has already gone crazy, and will tear a person into pieces and eat them if he sees one.
As long as they drink enough blood, they can recover from this state of mindlessness.
However, there were too many hungry Moon Children, and there were not enough unlucky ones at one time. As a result, they wandered more and more crazily, and their aggression gradually increased, but no one could regain their sanity.
——But what if we gain sanity?
In the past, when they were sensible, they could not escape the shackles of the blood contract.
Even though Huyue Manor has been destroyed, these Sons of the Moon who once served Huyue Manor but were not destroyed together with Huyue Manor but escaped early can never think of escaping their own fate - they were all signed by the founder of Huyue Manor.
The blood contract is locked here. It's like a watchdog chained in front of an unoccupied house when the building is empty.
It’s just that these dogs cannot starve to death, they will only go crazy from hunger.
Now fighting this mad dog is another person Aiwass feels familiar with——
——The guardian elf of the Moriarty family, Oswald.
Surrounding him were children of the moon that had turned into white stone statues.
That is the "paleness" that occurs when the child of the moon is completely drained of blood and vitality is completely exhausted when he lacks the ability to purify and can only kill the child of the moon again and again.
Without his companions and without the armor of the Pope's Guards, Oswald had to struggle against Director Cornelius, now known as the "Blood-Maned Beast."
Oswald waved the sword with his right hand and pulled the thin transparent string with his left hand.
Just the aftermath of the swing of the dagger in his right hand was enough to shatter a stone wall dozens of meters away. However, when the blade hit Director Cornelis, it only made a crisp knocking sound like metal collision.
——Aiwass has seen the power of that thin line.
When it is swung, it can instantly cut through the palace wall of the Palace of Silver and Tin that is reinforced by the preservation technique!
Even the war machine that Star Antimony is proud of, a war fortress that is thicker than a tank, can be cut into pieces by just raising your hand.
But they could only cut bloody marks on Director Cornelius's body - they couldn't even touch the bones.
After the thin thread was pulled out and thin blood splashed like a willow leaf, the hideous wound entangled with each other like a living creature and healed itself. However, due to lack of vitality, Director Cornelis could only heal it hastily into a scar.
, and cannot completely smooth it out.
The more hurt he gets, the crazier he becomes.
It can easily step on broken stone slabs with one step, and jump up to more than twenty meters high. It can even walk freely on the surrounding buildings and jump back and forth as if it were walking on flat ground.
He was like a bright red shadow, running repeatedly at extremely fast speeds. Just by jumping back and forth, you could see the surrounding buildings constantly emitting clouds of dust, making unpleasant creaking sounds.
——Those buildings couldn’t even withstand the reaction force when he jumped!
"Ouch, ow, ow...meat——! Or...kill me...!"
Director Cornelius roared with a muffled throat.
Although I don't understand it at all, the meaning is very clear and I can understand it.
——Either give me flesh and blood or kill me.
When Aiwass heard its roar and rushed over, Oswald had already suffered some trauma. The blood flowing out made Director Cornelius even more crazy...
...so that he didn't notice the other person at all.
Old James stood about fifty or sixty meters away with a solemn expression.
He pointed to the center of the battlefield and chanted in a low voice.
Astrological images flow around him - these astrological images surround him like a shield, with new stars appearing every time they circle around, gradually forming new constellations.
His left eye burned with azure fire, while his right eye was turquoise.
His left hand holds his crutch, and his right hand points forward.
And as he chanted, an inexplicable gravity suddenly pressed on Director Cornelis.
——Time and Space Bound·Five Times Gravity!
A stagger caused him to directly insert his hands into the ground - the solid stone slab was like tofu in front of his withered clawed hands, and he easily turned out two stone flowers.
Oswald took the opportunity to make a surprise attack.
High-level magic came to his body, and his speed suddenly tripled.
The long sword in his hand struck at the red-haired beast's neck like a guillotine——
——Bang!
Only a crisp shattering sound was heard, but the scarred sword in his hand shattered out of thin air!
At this moment, old James raised the crutch on his left hand.
A ray of light as hot as the scorching sun suddenly shot out!
This attack is extremely familiar to Aiwass.
This is the fourth level of magical scorching ray, which is the shot fired by the Cruel Preacher!
——Simulation·Scorching Ray!
If you want to use the ability of a mage to simulate the spells of other paths, the difficulty must be one level higher. Therefore, the real level of old James should be at least the fifth energy level of the path of wisdom and the path of adaptability!
He was suddenly pressed down by five times the gravity. Before he had time to adapt, he was engulfed by scorching light - this attack was a sure hit.
This is a very advanced spell-casting technique, with double-shot spells!
Chant two spells of different energy levels, different occupations or even different paths at the same time, synchronizing them to activate "at the same time".
This attack immediately caused an almost fatal attack on the red-haired beast - it was only a fourth-level spell, but its effect exceeded the sum of all the previous spells. Director Cornelis suddenly screamed, as if in pain
, and as if relieved, it gradually turned into a pale stone statue, and the facial features of the stone statue were gradually becoming blurred...
but……
This should have been something that Oswald could easily do with magic, and there was no need for a mage to simulate it...
"...Mr. Oswald."
Suddenly, Aiwass's voice rang out from the void. He did not make a sneak attack, but lifted his invisibility openly and appeared in front of the two of them.
