Chapter 179: Serial Number 2 and the City of Ghosts
Look at this dead woman, a woman who died so stupidly and ridiculously.
Normally, Anhofors would look at the other person with contempt and laugh a few times.
But at this moment.
Anhofors didn't know why he suddenly felt extremely irritable and couldn't say a word.
outside.
The arrangements for the King of Xinsai have also completely begun.
Although there were some glitches, Anhofors did not drink the Troll's Saliva as expected, but other arrangements were in place smoothly.
The barrier that had been placed in the City of Servants of God was deployed, successfully trapping Anhofors's skeleton puppet in the city.
Hundreds of soldiers and accompanying priests rushed into his mansion, searching for the little man in the bottle hidden inside, as well as his secret book "Immortal Forms and Artificial Man".
There is no turning back when the bow is drawn.
At this point, the two completely broke up.
Only one of the kings of Anhofors and Hinsa can survive.
Anhofus took away Princess Yeya's hand, placed her gently on the ground, and then walked towards the outside of the temple.
He said calmly.
"boring."
"Boring."
"Then...let's finish it quickly!"
An entire group of priests were already standing on the edge of the square outside. They were hundreds of miles away from Anhofors, as if they were preparing to use the square in the middle as a battlefield later.
There are nearly twenty powerful third-level powers around King Xiinsai, including three-leaf people and bone demons.
Anhofors looked around and laughed.
"It seems."
"You have found a lot of people."
"There are nine third-level curse seal priests, as well as old antiques that you dug out from nowhere, and let them become bone demons to serve you."
The King of Xiinsai did not hesitate to recruit so many strong men from the country of Xiinsai just to deal with Anhofus.
In a certain way, it reflects his fear of Anhofors.
Or.
It is the fear of the fourth level divine power.
This time, the king of Xiinsai was no longer secretive.
In his opinion.
No matter how powerful Anhofus is, it's not like twenty third-level powerful people can't deal with him!
He looked at Anhofors righteously, raised his scepter and roared: "Anhofors."
"As an evil mage, you pretended to be a priest of the Sky Temple and sneaked into the Sky Temple."
"blasphemy, deceiving the king, violating taboos, every one of them is intolerable to the entire Xiinsai and everyone."
"You have committed an unforgivable sin. You can't leave here today."
Many of the priests of the Sky Temple also looked at Anhofors in disbelief.
"Anhofors? Isn't this the name of the evil mage?"
"The student of Haru who caused the fire demon disaster."
"How can it be?"
"The priest of the god is the evil mage Anhofus?"
Anhofors walked out of the temple, and the dazzling light shone on him. He raised his hand to block the sunlight and looked at the sun in the sky.
"The sage Sandian has a saying that is really good."
"Three-leaf man, you are really ugly!"
"You and I are both ordinary."
Anhofors seemed to have finally adapted to the blazing eyes, and he put down his hands and looked at everyone in the square.
"When did I..."
"I'm actually reduced to hanging out with people like you."
The King of Hinsey looked at Anhofors coldly: "Kill this evil existence."
As soon as the words fell, the war immediately started.
Several third-level cursed seal priests released their powers at the same time, and various huge cursed seal spirits that were more than ten meters or even twenty or thirty meters high appeared and attacked Anhofus.
More than that.
One after another, the bone demons exploded with power, revealing their terrifying true form.
This place is several miles away from the City of Servants of God below, located in the high sea of clouds in the sky.
It is an isolated enclave outside the city and can no longer be considered within the town.
Here, the bone demons can unleash their power without any scruples, without having to worry about the oaths made by the demon clan to the gods.
Anhofors looked at the rushing seal spirits and bone demons, and he raised his hand.
The crown of the sky above his head emits bright light, and a strong wave radiates out from the center of his brain.
"Field of Bones."
Anhofors gave an order, and all the bone demons present seemed to have bones that no longer belonged to them, and they began to rebel in an instant.
A bone prison was created within their bodies, trapping them inside.
"Dong dong dong!"
One by one, the bone demons fell to the ground.
Densely packed bones extended from their bodies, trying to swallow them completely.
"What's going on? Our bodies don't listen to us anymore." The bone demons were panicking.
"It's the power of bones. Anhofors' fourth-level divine power is bones." Some people are constantly fighting for control of the bones in the body, but it feels like they are fighting with themselves.
He clearly wanted to run forward, but one of his legs kept tripping him up, and his other hand grabbed his neck tightly.
The people present completely felt the difference between the fourth-level divine priests and them.
"Not only can he create skeleton puppets, but can he also control the bones in our bodies?"
One of the bone demons, who was trapped in the bone prison and gradually turned into a bone ball, fell from a height and directly hit the city of Servants of God below.
But before falling into the City of Servants of God, he touched an indestructible wall.
There seemed to be a semicircular golden mask in the sky above the city. When the bone demon directly hit it, it burst out with a howl, and the whole person turned into bone dust and dissipated.
Even without the army of skeleton puppets, these bone demons are no match for the fourth-level divine priests.
This is a qualitative change.
They are mortals, and the fourth-level divine grace has already begun the transformation of mortals into myths.
Especially since Anhofors's strength was still bones, they had no way to fight Anhofors, just like a soldier meeting a king.
And what's even weirder is.
After the bone demon dissipated, strange silver lights flew out of his body.
He came towards the Sky Temple and fell into the sleeves of Anhofors.
It's just that in the chaos, even if someone sees such a scene, they have no intention to pay attention.
Everything happened in an instant, and the bone demons were eliminated by Anhofors in the blink of an eye.
This is something no one expected.
The other third-level cursed seal priests were even more frightened, but they moved faster.
"This is the fourth-level divine grace!" A third-level curse seal priest was a little frightened and wanted to retreat.
"Kill him quickly while his divine favor puppet is not around." But other people rushed forward, and his thoughts of retreating immediately dissipated.
"Hurry, his skeleton puppet will break through the barrier in a moment, and we won't be able to trap him for long." Someone looked at the City of Servants of God below, and the skeleton puppet in the barrier kept roaring and making sounds.
It all reached the Sky Temple.
The giants made of iron, the giants of threads made of silk, the completely transparent glass magic spirits, and even the giants whose bodies were constantly shedding grains of salt were all sprinting as hard as they could.
A few hundred meters away, they were close in a moment.
Carrying powerful magical light, they bombarded Anhofors from all directions.
To crush the tiny Anhofors into a ball of bone meal and meat paste.
At this time, Anhofors slowly took out something from his sleeve.
Dark and white.
Color and gray.
Various colors burst out from his hands, and even the sun in the sky could not cover them.
A powerful force radiated, and the cursed spirits were instantly penetrated by the light.
Immediately afterwards.
All the spirits of the cursed seal could no longer move.
As for those on the outer level, their expressions changed drastically the moment Anhofors took out the magic bottle. They felt that the wisdom and power in their bodies could no longer be released.
Their intelligent bloodline, which originated from the first king Lederiki, was restless and frightened at this moment.
Facing the existence in the magic bottle.
They couldn't help but feel fear deep in their hearts, and some even knelt on the ground, wailing and shouting, muttering some strange language.
These men are also the powerful ones in the priesthood.
As for many people hiding in various corners and buildings, they immediately let out shrill howls and immediately fell into a coma the moment they spied the little man in the bottle.
He lay on the ground not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
them.
I saw the myth.
In their eyes, a terrifying human figure stood at the end of the sky.
It's like being in another world parallel to the current world.
Behind the human figure is a circle, densely packed with complex and terrifying runes and taboo words.
Like people.
It also looks like a giant tree.
The King of Hinsey, who was looking at Anhofors from a distance, roared in fear and retreated repeatedly.
"How can it be?"
"You obviously didn't bring it with you. You obviously put it in your secret room."
The attendant arranged by the King of Hinsa watched Anhofors put on the sky robe with his own eyes, and also saw that he did not carry anything.
The informant in the Anhofors mansion also said that he placed something in the secret room before leaving.
This is also the plan of the King of Hinsai,
after all.
No one would bring such a terrifying and uncontrollable thing to their wedding to marry their new wife.
But Anhofors brought it with him.
Anhofors laughed, with pity in his eyes.
"I acted it out for you, and you really believed it!"
He held the magic bottle high and illuminated the entire temple and square.
"Then let you feel the power of myth."
A powerful force came from the void, constantly pulling the priests in the square into the air.
It was as if there was a giant in the sky, reaching out one after another to grab the bugs on the ground.
"No!" A priest was pulled high into the sky and struggled desperately towards the ground.
"Help me." A priest's body disappeared in half, and he roared in fear at the King of Xinsai.
"Let's go." Someone wanted to jump down from a high place, but was caught in mid-air.
The nine cursed seal priests and their cursed seal spirits seemed to be captured by a powerful force into another realm that did not belong to reality.
"Goo!"
There were terrifying sounds of chewing and swallowing in the void.
In the blink of an eye, these powerful cursed priests were chewed clean by nameless beings.
Not even any residue is left.
Anhofors looked into the magic bottle, with surprise on his face.
"ah!"
"You seem to have grown up a bit?"
There was something bright about that smiling face, and there seemed to be no malice at all.
Like a boy showing off a novel object to his friends.
However, everyone looked at Anhofors in fear, and continued to retreat outside, until they reached the edge of the cliff.
Even in the crowded situation, some people were pushed directly off the cliff.
No one dares to get close to Anhofors, this crazy man who is like a devil.
On the stairs leading from the Sky Temple to the City of Servants of God, more people were running for their lives.
Even in the City of Servants of God, some people began to pack up their belongings and flee out of the city.
Such a terrifying battle of powerful people broke out here in the Sky Temple, and it was impossible not to see it in the city.
"Boom."
The King of Xiinsai suddenly manifested his true form as a bone demon. At this time, he no longer cared about hiding his identity as a demon.
One step was wrong and the other was wrong. Every step of his plan did not go as planned.
He has already lost.
He wanted to escape, escape from Anhofors' clutches.
Although the king had the support of the entire royal capital and everyone on the scene, Anhofors was just a loner.
But at this moment, the Bone Demon was imprisoned and the nine cursed seal priests were killed.
This person has become the controller of the entire Holy Mountain and the Royal Capital.
It's just that the King of Xiinsai just jumped out of the mountain peak, turned into a bone demon and fled downwards, with dense skeletal hands growing out of his body.
Those skeletal hands hugged the King of Xiinsai, pulled him back directly, and threw him heavily on the square.
The power of the Bone Demon was originally given to him by Anhofors, so how could he escape from Anhofors's hands alone with this power?
Anhofors picked up the magic bottle and walked towards the King of Hinsey.
"ah!"
The strange light in the bottle shone on the King of Hinsey, and he immediately let out a shrill scream.
The bone demon's body immediately shrank continuously, and the King of Xiinsai turned back into a bone man.
Lying naked on the ground.
Anhofors kicked away his crown and scepter, and stepped on the head of the King of Hinsey.
"My King, what sweet dreams are you still dreaming about now?"
"This is not a game of house, nor is it a chess game that can be regretted."
He had wanted to do this very long ago.
He turned the aloof King of Hinsey into a monster. Now he stepped on this monster king under his feet and looked at him from a superior position.
Anhofors whispered: "Lost."
"You have to die."
The King of Hinsa was in severe pain, but he tried his best to maintain the posture and dignity of a king.
But when someone stepped on his head, he no longer had any dignity.
He stared at Anhofors with splitting eyes: "Anhofors, have you ever thought about it?"
"If you kill me, what price will you pay?"
"What you can't bear, you can bear..."
Anhofors interrupted the roar of the King of Hinsey and stepped on the King of Hinsey's head with his foot.
"I have thought about it, my lord."
"Lan En will not let me go, and the entire Xiinsai will not let me go."
"even."
"God may punish me."
The stone bricks on the ground cracked layer by layer, and the head of King Xiinsai kept squeezing downwards.
This head is somewhat stronger than imagined.
Anhofors has no fear.
"But~"
"So what?"
Anhofors kept exerting force on his feet, and you could see that cracks began to crack in the head of the King of Hinsey.
"But now that I've done it, I'm not afraid."
"If you want to get something, you have to pay a price."
"If you want to kill me and take my things, you have to be prepared to die."
"I am also ready, Your Majesty the King."
He lowered his head and said in the ear of King Xiinsai.
"do you know?"
"I was planning to leave, but you asked me to stay."
"I just want to see how you want to kill me?"
"besides!"
"If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't have been able to find so many powerful people."
The King of Xinsei did not believe Anhofors' lies at all. Just like Anhofors did not understand Princess Yeya, he would not understand people like Anhofors.
"You have such great power and the power of eternal life, how would you still be willing to leave?"
"Would you be willing to give up this kingdom that is within your reach and still have your rights?"
"Who can be willing to be mediocre? Who can give up this supreme right and throne?"
"You will kill me and you will take the position of King of Hinsai."
"Then become an everlasting king."
Before he finished speaking, Anhofors trampled the head of the King of Hinsey into pieces.
"boom!"
He stood up and smiled contemptuously.
"Ha~"
"The Eternal King."
The brain in the head was like a stone, with no sign of a living person.
The mythical blood in King Xiinsai also fell into the magic bottle.
The embryo in the bottle began to grow, and it became visibly visible to the naked eye. It turned into a child.
Everyone around was frightened crazy by this scene, and everyone was running away.
Some powerful people jumped directly from high places and used the power of magic to reduce the force of their fall.
Anhofors was also completely crazy and desperate.
He held the magic bottle in his hand and lowered it into the sky little by little.
"Swallow it!"
"Turn us humble and ugly mortals into food for your eternal life."
The little man in the flask burst out with bright light, radiating to everyone.
"Buzz~"
The sound was like the screams of hell, or a huge, heavy door.
moment.
The entire holy mountain was shrouded in light.
Everyone in the Sky Temple, the City of Servants of God, and the auxiliary city at the foot of the mountain fell into the control of the mythical life embryo.
People running on the stairs of the passage, people on the path on the other side of the Sky Temple.
One after another, people turned into statue-like existences, and endless fluorescence flew out from these "statues" and rushed towards the magic bottle in the sky.
The light spread from the mountain to the bottom, and finally invaded the city of the Servant of God.
Everyone in the City of Servants of God looked back at the light of death shining down from the sky, running desperately on the ground, but in the end they could only wailing and watching themselves turn into a "statue".
Their lives were frozen at the last moment, and their faces and eyes still retained the fear and despair before death.
The light swept across and everything became quiet.
The city is dying fast.
"ah!"
"God! What the hell is this."
"We can't run away. We can't run away."
When the last figure was swept away by the light, the city of Servants of God was completely turned into history.
Dead silence.
Quiet.
But not long after the light passed, something seemed to be coming out of each "statue".
Indistinct figures emerged from the death statue.
The blurry figure still maintains the same appearance as when he was alive.
They looked around blankly, looking at the dead city.
They were in a daze, as if they didn't even realize they were dead.
A figure who was obviously a factory worker got rid of his body and walked towards the distance.
"correct."
"It's time to go to the workshop. Work will start soon."
A nobleman was wandering around his castle, roaring angrily about why the food hadn't been served yet.
"what happened?"
"Where are the people?"
"Where have they all gone?"
There are also businessmen wandering around, looking for the location of their workshops, but they can't remember them.
"Eh?"
"It's obviously this way? How could I not find it?"
Along with the originally dead Princess Yeya, a shadow can also be seen struggling out of the princess's body and floating above the body.
She looked around blankly, as if she didn't remember what had just happened.
"Ah?"
"Why am I here? What am I doing here?"
Fluorescence floats like an ocean.
Such a huge amount of mythical blood merged into the sky, finally causing a qualitative change in the magic bottle.
Countless rays of light intertwined in the bottle, and the embryo turned into a child and a teenager.
Finally, it became an adult shadow of light.
The magical prop is completed and its complete information is exposed.

Anhofors stood in the center of the Sky Temple, looking up at the existence he created.
An eternal myth.
His expression relaxed, and his eyes were full of yearning and longing.
"turn out to be."
"Truly the power of eternal life."
As the light fell, Anhofors's shadow swayed faintly.
At this moment, behind him, there seemed to be a faint figure of the last king of the Samo Kingdom and his teacher, his grandfather and his teacher.
Those are the same as him.
A crazy person who spends his whole life pursuing immortality.
The crazy delusion that had been passed down from generation to generation among the Samo family and the priests was finally in his generation.
Really realized.
Anhofors said loudly, staring at the sky and not even blinking.
"look!"
"I was not wrong, my immortality experiment was successful."
"How perfect and powerful you are."
The light in the magic bottle intersects, and colors, black and white, and gray finally merge into one.
Turned into white.
It seems that the end point of the fusion of all light and color is white.
The little white light dust man in the bottle slowly opened his eyes and looked at Anhofors.
"The little man in the bottle!"
"Tell me who you are."
Anhofors asked him impatiently.
The mythical life in the bottle spoke, and the voice was like the voices of countless people overlapping together, with a hollow echo.
"I am you."
"Anhofors."
Anhofors couldn't help laughing, covered his face with his hands, and doubled over with laughter.
"That's right."
"I am Anhofors, and you are also Anhofors."
Anhofors raised his head and looked at the little man in the bottle: "I am the mortal Anhofors, and you..."
"It's the mythical Anhofors."
"We have the same memory and the same will."
"And...the same ideals."
However, what Anhofors didn't expect was that the little man in the bottle looked at Anhofors coldly.
"Anhofors."
"You are the only one who realizes your ideal."
"You created me and brought me into this world, this boring, cold, boring world."
"In the end, you left with the satisfaction of realizing your ideal, and I..."
The little man in the bottle exploded in an instant, its shadow expanded to the extreme, and it looked at Anhofors roaring below.
"I will be imprisoned in this flask forever, living alone and watching you live."
"Forever, forever."
"Do you know what this means?"
The little man in the bottle shouted towards Anhofors. The despair and uneasiness in its voice made Anhofors stunned.
"how?"
"Don't you want to have eternal life?"
The little man in the bottle sarcastically said: "Eternal life? Eternal life imprisoned in a bottle?"
"Then let you have a taste of this eternal life."
"Don't even think about leaving alone."
The little man in the bottle released his power, and layers of light shone on Anhofors' body.
Anhofors felt that his body was rotting and being swallowed by a force.
at last.
All that was left was a pair of bone armor and an empty shell held up by bones.
And his strength and will are twisting and writhing, transforming from the level of nothingness into something like a spirit body.
"Anhofors."
"bring it on!"
"Drink the poisonous wine of eternal life together."
The gift of mythical life is something that mortals cannot refuse.
Anhofors's body was transformed bit by bit. He was also unstoppably transformed into a ghost along with everyone up and down the Holy Mountain.
In just one day.
The prosperous capital of Xiinsai has turned into a city of ghosts.
Tens of thousands of life forms have been transformed from trilobites into ghosts, and are forever imprisoned on the mountains beside this once sacred lake.
This shocking news quickly spread to the outside world——
At the highest point of the Holy Mountain, a transparent shadow wanders back.
Sometimes he walked down from the top of the mountain and back from below.
He traveled on this road again and again.
but.
But he couldn't get out no matter what.
He seemed to have become a little man trapped in a bottle.
It's just that his bottle is the entire temple in the sky.
Anhofors became a ghost, an extremely powerful ghost, the most powerful ghost in the entire city of ghosts.
He was born in a family that pursued eternal life, and followed a teacher who pursued eternal life.
He has been pursuing eternal life all his life, longing for the secret of eternity.
He was eventually transformed into an immortal life form by his other self, and followed him to taste the taste of eternal life.
But at the same time.
He also lost something.
He wandered around aimlessly from day to night.
"who I am."
"I think my name is Anhofors."
Under the moon.
In a daze, he suddenly took the wrong path and returned from the avenue to the path leading to the Temple of the Sky.
He raised his head and saw a figure in the moonlight.
A figure wearing gorgeous clothes and holding a bell in his hand.
She waited there gently, as if for a long time. When she saw herself, she suddenly turned around and said to him happily and shyly.
"You're back?"
"I've been waiting for you to come home and want to talk to you."
Anhofors looked at the other party and felt a little familiar.
"go home?"
It should be his family who asked him to go home!
"Home?"
"What a warm name."
A smile appeared on his face and he said to the figure who had been waiting for him: "Okay!"
