Chapter 439 - 202: Cain Empress (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_4
However, Bailuo would not take the initiative to strike; he had no such idle thoughts.
Bailuo had come to the Ancient City to initiate a flood-like cleansing. Who would die and who would survive would depend on the sins they had committed and how great they were.
"It’s about time."
Bailuo, accompanied by the Lu Wei Family, arrived at the Church Summit.
There was a huge bell tower here, with a section that could open up to reveal a platform in the sky.
From here, Bailuo could easily overlook the entire city from a high vantage point and enjoy the upcoming view.
"The Cain Empress is the only one who might have affected our plan; her choice to retreat means we no longer have to worry about any repercussions."
At this moment, the sun was setting.
Boundless darkness and shadows were approaching the city from the distant horizon over the sea. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Dong~~ Dong~~ Dong~~~"
The bell was struck for the second time, its deep and melodious sound echoing through the sky of Ancient City Xilu’en, traveling through the streets and alleys, meandering in the bustling markets, reaching the ears of every noble and every petty person.
The sky had darkened...
"Here it is, the signal His Majesty spoke of."
Sheila remained in the Skelot Family’s estate and did not leave.
"Can we begin now?"
At this moment, Lyon was in the Ancient Capital Cemetery.
The young man clad in a trench coat leaned against a tombstone, lifting the hat that had obscured his face to reveal a smile: "I’m also pretty much prepared."
"Snap."
Lyon snapped his fingers, and then a mist began to envelop the area, growing thicker and thicker: "Sleep in my dreamscape, mortals..."
At sea, the darkness was accompanied by a fog so thick one could not see their hand before their face.
This was a phenomenon the people of the Ancient City, who had lived there all their lives, had never seen before.
"What’s happening?"
"Is it foggy?"
It was not that they had never seen fog before, but this fog was too dense and came in a manner too strange.
Just a minute ago it had been a normal evening, and in the blink of an eye, it had become this, inexplicable.
"Miracle Power!"
Common people naturally had no clue where this change was coming from, but a portion of those who had encountered the Miracle guessed the fog was related to it.
"This must be the power of a Miracle."
"To change the environment in an instant, how immense must the Miracle Power be to achieve this?"
Within the Venomous Snake Gang, a silver-haired woman hidden beneath a cloak looked around in surprise; she was a Shadow Guard sent here by the Dark Elf Matron to investigate, a Miracle Citizen of the Transcendent level.
"We must leave this place!"
Realizing the danger, the Dark Elf girl Yin Sha immediately prepared to retreat.
However...
"The shadow dimension can’t be opened?!"
"How is that possible!"
Yin Sha had never encountered such a situation before, having been a Miracle Troop Type for ten years.
She was not a particularly powerful combatant, but when it came to dealing with ordinary mortals, even if there were hundreds or thousands, they would be no match for her.
Thus, Yin Sha’s work had always been straightforward, which was occasionally to be assigned to oversee different areas, preventing the mortals below from becoming lax due to their prolonged lack of contact with the Miracle, and to keep them in check from time to time.
Her arrival in the Ancient City this time was for the same reason; the local gangs were too arrogant.
"If I can’t use my abilities, is there a higher-tiered presence here?"
Yin Sha usually dealt with mortals who had little knowledge.
All it took for her to subdue them was to release a bit of energy, create some light, and they would quickly bow before her.
"Stronger than me, heroic, Heroic level?!"
Confronted by heroes stronger than herself, Yin Sha didn’t know what to do.
She tried to contact her superiors but couldn’t do so due to the fog, thereby falling into a vicious cycle.

"This level of Miracle Power is much faster than expected."
On the snowy mountains outside the Ancient City, General Winter sat high above, gazing at the city shrouded in darkness and fog.
Lights were completely obscured, shrouded in total darkness.
What was strange was that the fog only covered the bounds of the Ancient City; from General Winter’s position, there was no fog over the forests, plains, or the distant sea, not even in the sky filled with stars and the shining moon.
"Some sort of Domain?"
General Winter felt somewhat uncertain: "Such a large area, what level of Miracle Troop Type could unleash such an extensive Domain?"
One person?
If relying solely on one’s power, then at least it would have to be King level.
"It’s impossible for it to be a King; with the Holy Covenant in place, the Holy would not ignore the use of King level forces against the Ancient City."
To put it bluntly, a city conquered with King level might is likely to be claimed directly by the Holy, or they might even order you to return it to its original owner.
This is clearly stated in the Holy Covenant; even if conquered, it’s useless.
Unless you are an adversary of the Holy Empire and dare to openly oppose it, you should not think of engaging in underhanded actions.
"General!"
A woman appeared beside General Winter; her name was Mei Xiang, and she was General Winter’s student: "Something’s happened."
"I can see it."
General Winter appeared very calm, as if not particularly concerned about the Miracle invasion before him: "With such thick fog, I’m not blind."
"Then you’re still..."
Mei Xiang had followed her teacher for many years and was very aware of General Winter’s character.
He was someone very concerned about the nation and territory; it was not just the whole Ancient City but even a single piece of land that the old man would fight for with reason and never retreat from.
However, this time, it seemed that General Winter did not intend to take immediate action.
"Don’t you plan to intervene?"
"What good would intervening do?"
Xilu’en was merely a city; albeit with a large population, it had not been transformed by Count Thorn using Miracle Power and was a domain of mortals.
What do you think?
