Chapter 367 The War of the Gods!
When Qin Nan saw Tang Zijun daring to confront him alone, he was completely dumbfounded.
Although she already knew that Tang Zijun possessed divine power to some extent, and even had her own divine realm, subconsciously she still regarded Tang Zijun as an ordinary person.
The last time we saw Tang Zijun transform into her ultimate greed form was when the two of them were first pulled into the "dream world." At that time, Tang Zijun used this form to instantly kill a strange stone statue monster.
Now, Tang Zijun directly used this form to rush in front of Scáthach, and for Qin Nan, who had the best view, the visual impact was immense.
"The wolf riders' battle is beyond our reach. Let's take care of ourselves first." Just as Qin Nan was still in shock, Chang Lei's voice reached her ears precisely. "That's a contest between gods, something mortals can't possibly get involved in, and..."
"And what?" Qin Nan was taken aback.
"And you flew too close!" Chang Lei's voice was anxious. "Stabilize yourself, don't get caught in the aftershocks, watch out! The shockwave is coming!!"
As if to prove Chang Lei's warning, Qin Nan hadn't even reacted when he felt an even more intense repulsive force coming towards him, and destructive energy suddenly erupted from behind the Shadow Clan.
Some deformed monsters didn't even have time to react before they were instantly blasted into black mist by the energy, which then swept out in all directions with mournful cries and roars. Even those that were farther away were thrown off balance by the sudden fluctuations.
Tan Zhixin and the others could only vaguely see that at Scáthach's location, two dazzling lights, one black and one white, were colliding with each other, and as the divine power intertwined, wave after wave of energy ripples began to pour out.
Clang clang clang clang clang!
The clash between the knight's sword and the scarlet spear sparked streaks of black fire. Compared to Scáthach's nearly three-meter-tall figure, Tang Zijun, at 1.8 meters tall, appeared somewhat short. However, her powerful lustful energy showed no signs of being suppressed; on the contrary, it seemed to be gaining the upper hand.
"So you attacked first to avoid affecting others...?" Scáthach coldly looked down at the being covered in crystals beneath her. "Where is the demeanor of a fallen god in doing this?"
"Ha... So destroying modern civilization is what a god like you should do?" Tang Zijun forced a smile. "Don't forget, you are the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, the guardian of ancient Ireland. You have a duty to protect this world!"
"Ancient Ireland vanished long ago with the collapse of the Emerald Dream!"
With a roar from Scáthach, countless black spikes suddenly emerged from the black armor around her body, stabbing towards Tang Zijun like sharp blades. The latter paused, using the rebound force to escape, and then forcibly twisted her body in mid-air, unleashing another crescent slash.
Scáthach kicked the end of her spear, holding it upright in front of her, easily blocking the white slash. Then, she turned the spear and unleashed a black beam of energy.
Wherever the beam of light passed, even the light and shadow were distorted. Countless shadow energies were absorbed by the beam, making it even thicker.
Tang Zijun flipped and landed, narrowly avoiding the energy beam attack. Then she saw the beam spread into hundreds of beams in mid-air and reverse its direction, heading straight for her again.
Without time to think, Tang Zijun quickly dodged to the side, and at the same time drew her knight's lance from her waist and pulled the trigger at the energy beam that was right in front of her.
boom!!
A thunderous roar erupted, and a massive shockwave swept outwards. At point-blank range, Tang Zijun's body was sent flying, smashing a deformed monster that couldn't dodge in time into pieces.
Before he could even regain his footing, a sudden rift appeared in the thick fog before him, and in the center of the rift, Scáthach, spear in hand, charged straight at him with unstoppable momentum, like a rainbow piercing the sun.
Tang Zijun's expression changed, and she slammed her palm down on the ground.
Two crystal ribbons fluttered behind Tang Zijun and quickly transformed into a crystal-clear oval mirror. At the same time, a black shadow, no weaker than Scáthach, flashed out from the shadow like lightning.
Two figures wielding scarlet spears clashed together with the same posture, the same speed, and the same destructive energy!
The moment the spears clashed, a deafening metallic roar erupted, and terrifying energy waves spread outwards like a tsunami.
In the midst of the fierce collision, cracks began to appear in the dimensions of the entire shadow world, as if it were about to collapse at any moment. The two enormous black figures were locked in a stalemate.
Little Gray flapped its wings in mid-air, constantly lowering its flight altitude in an attempt to avoid the aftershocks coming from afar, but the next moment it was still directly swept into the black mist.
"Mommy—"
Little Gray's screams didn't last long before he felt his body, which had been flying backwards, suddenly stop. When he looked up, he found that Tan Zhixin had caught him.
In her combined form, Tan Zhixin has a human body and a snake tail, which brings her a far greater boost than the combination of an ordinary magical girl and a spirit beast.
However, her brows were furrowed, and her face was grim as she stared at the deformed monsters that kept crawling out of the black lake. "This won't do; we can't possibly kill all these monsters."
The number of Shadow Clan members was already difficult to estimate, and monsters were still emerging from the unknown depths of the Black Lake. In addition, the surrounding shadows suppressed their magic, causing their magic to be consumed very quickly.
"We can't keep fighting here forever; if this continues, we'll be dragged down and killed—Deputy Director Chang!!"
"I heard you!" Chang Lei's voice came from afar. "We must end the battle between the Wolf Riders and the God of Shadows as soon as possible. Once they've decided who's victor, this war will be over!"
"Easier said than done, the key question is, how do we actually do it!"
Little Grey couldn't help but shout loudly.
"That's a battle between gods. We can't even get close, how could we possibly help Tang Zijun?"
Upon hearing Xiao Hui's voice, Chang Lei frowned beneath his mask.
He never doubted that Tang Zijun could defeat Scáthach, but this was, after all, her divine realm. Tang Zijun was able to directly kill the God of Mirror Devouring back then because the Mirror World was also Tang Zijun's home turf. If this dragged on, Scáthach's divine power would recover, and even Tang Zijun would likely have to expend considerable effort...
Wait, the Divine Realm?
Suddenly realizing something, Chang Lei shouted, "I've got an idea!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the enormous island floating in the sky. "See that? The legendary Sky Island, the Land of Shadows, and also the source of Scáthach's power! Destroy it!!"
"Curled ears!"
"Okay—" Curly Ears replied quickly upon hearing Katie's voice. "I'm off right now!"
The golden steam train, like a dragon in flight, roared as it turned around in the sky and sped straight toward the floating island of the Shadow Kingdom.
However, Chang Lei still frowned, and he suddenly turned to look at Qin Nan beside him. "Not enough! Qin Nan, you and Consultant Tan go too!"
"Then, what about these deformed monsters?!" Qin Nan's lips were dry as he looked at the shadowy monsters rushing towards them one after another.
"Leave it to me and Katie." Chang Lei gritted his teeth, then slapped Qin Nan on the head.
Startled by Chang Lei's sudden action, Qin Nan had no time to react. Her mind went blank for a moment, and an indescribable, strange feeling filled her senses, as if a piece of her memory had been forcibly torn out.
To everyone's astonishment, Chang Lei forcefully grabbed something from inside Qin Nan's head, and then forcefully...
The next moment, an enormous bull-headed monster was pulled straight out of Qin Nan's head.
The massive body landed on the ground, causing the surrounding ground to tremble violently. Then, a deafening roar erupted, forcing Qin Nan to stagger back several steps.
Staring blankly at the enormous bull-headed monster, Qin Nan's mouth dropped open.
...Qiongqiongqiong cattle! ?
"It's just a fragment from your memory; it's not over yet!"
Chang Lei grinned maliciously, then waved his hand, and two more terrifying figures flew out of Qin Nan's head.
Beer! Beer! Beer!
The black giant wolf lowered its body, its fur standing on end like steel needles, while on its body, a white-furred beast-like creature's eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty and cunning light.
"This is... a fox!?"
Tan Zhixin looked at the extremely familiar-looking being, then slowly turned her head and shifted her gaze to another enormous being.
"besides.."
Clack clack clack...
A series of bone-grinding sounds rang out, long and muffled, as if muscles and bones were gradually separating, bursting out with a teeth-grinding sound.
With that somber voice, an enormous skeletal giant slowly rose from the ground.
"Holy crap! Skull, Sir Skull!?" Little Grey froze and fell to the ground.
Qin Nan and Tan Zhixin stared at Chang Lei in shock, their thoughts seemingly frozen.
"Stop standing there like an idiot, hurry up and go!"
Chang Lei shouted loudly, then clutched his chest and gasped for breath.
"The methods we finally managed to recover have been completely wasted this time... After this is over, I'll have to make sure the Wolf Riders give me some extra benefits."
Meanwhile, the battle between Tang Zijun and Scáthach had already reached a fever pitch!
