BXBX NOVEL Chapter 817 496: The Big Move Of The Crimson Moon
A figure stood on the city wall of Twilight City.
Richard wore a black and red crown on his head, and his cape with dark patterns fluttered behind him.
He held the city wall with one hand and looked straight at the sky at this moment. The Crimson Moon that crushed the void appeared so riveting in the afterglow of Twilight City.
Richard stared at it for a moment and felt palpitations in his heart.
The Crimson Moon in the sky seemed to have transformed into an eyeball that emitted endless divine might.
It crossed the river of time.
Richard looked down at the earth. He stared at everyone.
It wasn\'t the primary plane alone, but the bottomless abyss, the nine hells, the death plane, and countless planes. Richard couldn\'t know about that.
Even those planes dark as ink and hadn\'t seen daylight since birth could see the Crimson Moon that floated in the air.
The world fell into a strange silence.
Everyone stared blankly at this scene that made their hearts tremble.
"What was that?"
The ignorant residents looked up at the sky, and confusion filled their minds.
Eyes couldn\'t decipher the moment.
Ripples suddenly appeared on the Crimson Moon.
Then, translucent souls appeared one after another.
Those souls emitted an endless divine might.
It made people tremble.
In the human city-states, many believers cried out in alarm.
"That\'s… My god! How? How is this possible?"
"The one in the middle is the river god? I once sensed his miracle. I couldn\'t be wrong with that aura. But why was such a great existence on that Crimson Moon?"
That bewildered, terrified, and caused anxiety to countless people.
The ten souls of the gods began to dissipate under the watchful eyes of countless beings from the various planes.
The souls turned into the purest energy and fused into the Crimson Moon.
The believers of the gods looked at this scene in a daze. It was like the moon sucked the souls away.
The gods they believed in. They had fallen.
Countless intelligent beings rose the emotions of fear, horror, and disbelief to their peak.
For millions of years, gods had never held an indelible glory in the hearts of everyone.
They were the rulers of this world, the rulers of the rules, the immortals, the eternal!
Even those who hated the gods had to admit they were powerful and majestic.
But at that moment, a total of ten gods were executed! Their souls dissipated before the eyes of everyone.
The believers\' miserable cries could tell this was not an illusion.
"An ancient existence… It had returned."
"New Era… The system has activated it."
Countless ancient lifeforms that existed in the unexplored lands murmured at this moment.
The Crimson Moon, which appeared like the eye of a demon god, gradually stabilized after the souls of the ten gods dissipated. The pressure it emitted retracted slowly.
Peace returned.
At this moment, the light in the sky disappeared. The bright moon on the other side of the sky that belonged to the New Era appeared.
One side of the moon emitted silver light, and the other was the Crimson Moon.
Each occupied a part of the sky.
They were incompatible with each other, yet they complemented each other.
Richard\'s mind wavered as he looked at the mythical scene.
Ten gods. That was even more than the number he had seen in the month of the Crimson Moon.
However, what puzzled him was that the figure at the edge was the kobold god.
The other party did not escape this calamity.
However, Dark Valkyrie and Xina had sent news that they had met the kobold god.
A crafty rabbit has three burrows.
One could not underestimate these existences who wielded the power of laws.
Fortunately, the two had discovered it in advance. Otherwise, Richard would not know the kobold god had a secret resurrection technique.
Richard didn\'t dwell on the matter. This brutal slaughter could have injured the kobold god even if it truthfully survived.
It couldn\'t pose such a mighty threat.
In comparison, he was more worried about the movements of the abyss after the Crimson Moon rose. The King of Decay and spider goddess Lolita had irreconcilable conflicts with Twilight City.
The rotten authority was still on the god\'s ancient tree.
Richard took a deep breath, and his gaze gradually became firm.
Twilight City would fight to the last moment, no matter who the enemy was.
Richard retracted his focus and looked at the sky again.
The Crimson Moon he had waited for a long time rose into the sky.
His heart finally felt a little more at ease. The unknown was the most unsettling.
Now that the turmoil was a foregone conclusion. It was more of a confirmation.
It was whether the target of the Crimson Moon was the gods of the heavens.
No one could predict what would happen next, but one thing was for sure, Twilight City would protect itself.
"Lord, there are no traces of the enemy in the surroundings. The space is also very stable, and there are no signs of another plane fusion."
A voice behind interrupted Richard\'s thoughts. He turned around and saw the bandaged mummy hero, Gray. The mummy reported respectfully.
Gray and Gunter had returned from the Kingdom of Ell the other day.
Tackling a plane was too complicated and vast, so it was not in a hurry.
"Have the troop maintain the highest level of vigilance. Report back immediately if you spot and sense any unusual movements!"
"Yes, Lord!"
Richard had organized the flying troops into small teams to patrol the surrounding
hundred miles since the day before today.
They could quickly discover enemies whenever they appeared.
Obviously, the worst situation that the world had predicted did not happen.
Richard glanced around the city wall, and Gray turned to leave.
He looked at the guards while they waited gravely and nodded slightly. Then, Richard turned around and planned to leave.
The defense of Twilight City had already reached the highest level, so he did not need to keep an eye on the city wall.
He had just taken a few steps and had yet to walk down the city wall.
Suddenly, a commotion came from behind.
Richard felt a sense of foreboding. He turned around abruptly, and his pupils constricted.
The highly-hung Crimson Moon in the sky erupted with light.
It was like something exploded inside.
The blood-red light lit up the earth and entered the night sky. Richard looked over, and the entire sky turned crimson.
"What was this?"
A question arose in his mind.
The moon was like the eye of a demon god and had dense crimson dots.
A crimson dot fell. That gradually became clear after a dozen of breaths.
"That was… Raindrops?
"Blood rain?"
Richard suddenly had a bad feeling.
But before he could react.
\'Whoosh!\'
The blood rain that covered the entire world fell on the ground.
As expected, the blood rain convexed Twilight City.
However, the blood rain landed in the city.
\'Shua!\'
A transparent shield suddenly rose from the center of the city.
[Ice Elf Statue, 5-stars treasure]
Rebecca, the eldest daughter of the Frostwolf Grand Duke, had used the treasure to buy the fire dragon rabbit\'s fur the last time she came to Twilight City.
It could create a magic shield to block damage.
The ruby-like blood raindrops fell on the shield as they landed on the glass.
The translucent shield drew the blood raindrops.
Richard looked up, and thousands of marks appeared on the bowl-like shield.
The marks had dyed red.
Richard could clearly sense that the crimson raindrops contained energy. The ancient god statue!
That power was shockingly similar to the aura the ancient god statue emitted.
The only difference was that the energy contained in the raindrops was weak. Even if they gathered in a river, it would not be comparable to the ancient god statue.
The sudden incident interrupted Gray, and the mummy hero returned. It signaled Richard to go to the outside wall just as the human overlord was about to feel bewildered.
"Lord, look…Those dark treants!"
Richard pulled himself together, stepped forward, and pressed against the battlements. He looked down.
Blood rain utterly immersed the dark treants outside the city.
At this moment, god\'s ancient tree created evil troops that all stretched their withered branches without leaves and shook their vast trunks. It was like they enjoyed being drenched by the blood rain.
They could clearly sense that the blood raindrops would immediately fuse into their bodies as the leaks landed on their branches.
A layer of snow red dyed on the grayish-brown tree bark.
The blood-dyed threads started from the roots and continued to extend up through the cracks in the bark after they devoured tons of blood rain. That was even more shocking.
That made the already ferocious and terrifying dark tree man even more soul-tormenting.
The aura of these troops also gradually climbed up.
Its twenty-meter-tall body grew more.
"Lord…Those blood raindrops seemed to have some unfathomable energy. They allowed the dark treants to transform."
The flickering soul fire became bright in Gray\'s hollow pupils.
The empty voice was vividly low at this moment.
"I don\'t know…The bloody rain only fell on the Twilight City and the desert of death, but it still doused the entire world."
Richard\'s eyes narrowed.
\'It doused… The entire world?\'
These words made his thoughts run wild.
So this was the true meaning of the rise of the Crimson Moon?
\'It infected the entire world!
\'What a nerve!
\'In other words, the ten slaughtered gods were just appetizers.
\'What does Windsor plan?
The graceful and elegant figure appeared in Richard\'s mind. The fog on his body was so thick and irremovable.
He calmed down and immediately opened the player forum.
The information on it made his expression sparingly odd.
[F*ck! Blood rain poured from the sky down!]
[This is a new expansion pack! The blood rain can increase the strength of the troops. Brothers, don\'t miss it!!]
[What happened? Drenching blood rain could also make one obtain new skills. I just earned an F-rank skill–Eye of the Ancient God. Anyone who glares at me will reduce their attributes by 10%.]
[The Ice Empire had also fallen… Wasn\'t this new expansion too spectacular? Brothers, is there a place where it doesn\'t rain?]
[The blood rain wasn\'t just in one place but the entire world.]
[The ancient gods had returned. They had returned! He did not expect the other party to announce his return in such a way.]
It was no surprise that the aura of an ancient god contaminated those who absorbed the blood rain.
Next, these creatures would naturally become members of the Crimson Moon camp.
There was no solution to this plan!
Only the city-states with fortifications could avoid being drenched by the blood rain.
They were usually the human nobles and various sects.
The Crimson Moon separated enemies and allies through blood rain.
This method was indeed extraordinary.
Richard understood the key points. He couldn\'t help but think even more highly of Windsor.
He took a deep breath and looked at the dark treants again below the city wall.
At this moment, those tiny blood-dyed lines had already crawled all over their trunks. A crimson flowed under each cracked old bark.
The dark treants emitted an aura that rose several levels compared to before.
[Ding~ Your subordinate god\'s ancient tree, Treebeard, had devoured tons of primitive god energy and comprehended a new skill–Ancient God Body.]
[Ancient God Body]
[E-rank]
[Damage received from divine spells reduced by 15%.]
[Note: This skill can continue to devour the power of ancient gods to level up.]
Richard\'s expression changed a bit when he heard the sudden notification.
"Good heavens! It was just as those idiots on the forum had said. One drenched in blood could obtain skills!
"This time, those players would probably go crazy, right?"
Admiration for Windsor immersed his heart.
He had previously given Her Highness Windsor the information that players could influence the world\'s will by choosing between the new and the ancient gods.
Now, it was like, at least 70% of the players would stand on Crimson Moon\'s side.
A few players would refuse just because they could get a skill to strengthen their troops in the blood rain.
It wasn\'t the players\' style to lose advantage of the situation. Not many people could resist the temptation of such a tremendous advantage.
