Chapter 3646 The Star That Will Eventually Fall
As it saw its position getting lower and lower, and its limbs about to get wet with seawater, the evil beast suddenly let out a piercing cry like an insect chirping.
Then it abandoned its shield, withstanding the attack of thousands of falling meteors, its body collapsed and spun inward, turning itself into a spinning black and red vortex and disappearing.
People immediately searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the evil beast, and in the night sky directly above Shad's head, a brand new, thin crack sloping down. As the crack opened, a strange starry world filled with black and red stars was revealed once again.
Miss Asperger suddenly understood:
"The starry world we were just in was a fragment of the astral plane!"
The enormous monster flew out of the crack, its six walking legs reaching directly for Shad below. But when the bony claws at the ends of its legs, resembling human hands, closed, it realized it had only grasped a reflection of the moonlight in the water.
Realizing the danger, it tried to escape into the Astral Fragment again, but the rift closed immediately after it opened. This was Dorothy casting a spell on the Radiant Messenger, with Grace and Helen standing with her at that moment.
In front of the huge silver moon where the sea meets the sky, Ellie bounced and carried Shad upwards, and the moon behind them also came into the night sky with Shad.
The moonlight bathed Ellie's fur; she loved its cool and gentle power. Realizing that Shad had finished charging up his power and wanted to help him, the immense power of time, the gentleness of the moonlight, and the brilliance of the stars, all felt that night, converged on the little unicorn's horn in a bewildered mixture.
Then the cat on Shad's shoulder, its entire body glowing, saw the light emanating from that single horn and the starlight Shad pushed forward pierce through space, penetrating the body of the giant evil beast in one strike.
Amidst the increasingly piercing chirping of insects, it plummeted towards the sea, falling into the reflection of the silver moon in the water.
The moon in the water seemed to imprison it. The phantom of the moon then slowly rose from the water, carrying the evil beast amidst its violent struggles, to the opposite side of Shad and Ellie under the starry sky.
The moon faced the moon, starlight faced starlight. The stars twinkled in the night sky, the most brilliant moment in tens of thousands of years for the material world's starry heavens. The ring sorcerers on the sea, the priests of Fatumunst Island, and the visiting elves—all were watching them.
The evil beast in the moon's reflection in the water continued to struggle violently, but the black and red energy and terrifying power could not help it break free from the suppression of the entire starry sky.
Shad clenched his fists before the moon, recalling the pose that Daniste had shown him that morning to represent the phases of the moon. Facing the giant beast opposite the sea of stars, he raised his right hand high and lowered his left.
She smiled gently:
[Present World, Sixth Era, Winter of 1855 in the Universal Calendar, a moon with few stars. The twinkling of stars is the turning of fate, the boundless sea of stars is the myriad manifestations of fate. Fallen stars have transformed into beasts of fate, awakening from their long slumber; and the heroes who shattered the stars are born now, coming to answer their destiny in this long night. You, blessed by the moon, know the secrets of the stars and the moon under tonight's starry sky. It is a light fainter than the moon, yet warmer than the moon.]
Out-of-towner, your story is nearing its end. Do you already know what awaits you at the finish line?
People looked up at the scene and saw that as the caller's arms turned, the Milky Way really did rotate along with them.
The left arm moves counter-clockwise to the left, and the right arm moves counter-clockwise to the right, thus completing the "half-moon" pose. Then, both arms are raised together, and both fists point upwards towards the top of the head, completing the lunar cycle; this is the "dark moon" pose.
"The stars and the moon are in perfect harmony!"
The moon, which imprisoned the evil beast, changed its phases with the rotation of the Milky Way, and the "stars" within the moon also shrank in size with each phase. As the starry sky shifted, when the moon finally disappeared completely, the evil beast transformed into a black dot of light, vanishing like an extinguished star.
The starry sky was unusually bright at this moment, and the brilliance of the stars was converging on the life ring behind Shad, which was shrouded in thick steam mist, but the power of the "Hundred Phases of Stars and Moon" had already faded.
Ellie looked a little tired, but just as Shad was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he looked ahead again.
Because the dark spot of light in the starry sky reappeared and kept rotating and getting bigger, the power of the fallen star beast that was killed did not dissipate, but was gathered together in a rather brutal way by some more terrifying force.
The black light eventually transformed into a terrifying, entirely black figure. It resembled a simple shadow, but the blackness of its body seemed capable of distorting the light of the entire world. Even the starry sky above it appeared abnormally dim. Having witnessed a similar power in the doctor's dream, Shad knew what this was:
"The remains of the Fallen Star Beast were transformed into a demon by the blood of the Demon King?"
On the demon's chest was a perfectly round, star-blue ring. The ring beast's death had almost seamlessly transformed it into the demon wielding the Ring of Destiny; even Shad sensed the problem's difficulty at this moment.
But there was no other way; since the enemy was still there, the fight had to continue. He was only mentally exhausted; his spiritual and physical strength were still quite abundant. Therefore, he forced himself to use the [Sword Pact] to summon the Night Watch, and knowing that Ellie was already very tired, he stroked her fur with his left hand and whispered:
"I'm sorry, but the battle isn't over yet. I know you're exhausted, but can you continue to help me? We can't let it go to the sea. This power shouldn't be known to more people, in case the prophets discover something."
The doctor said that making everyone forget the "King of Demons" was also part of the seal.
"Ellie, you're the only one I can rely on now."
The cat, already in a bad mood tonight, was angry because Shad was riding Ellie, and its furry whiskers were trembling.
“You are my only helper right now. I know it’s a big request, but it’s just the two of us here.”
The small flame on the cat's tail suddenly ignited, and all the orange fur on the orange and white cat lit up.
"Come to my house to play after this is all over."
"Meow!"
A sudden meow rang out in the night sky. The witches vaguely guessed that it was Xiaomia's meow, but they didn't know why the meow sounded angry.
They were worrying about why the enemy didn't seem to have been eliminated when they saw Shad's location being engulfed by a huge fireball.
"No, it's not a fireball, it's the sun."
As Iluna supported the somewhat exhausted Emilia on the sea, she said, "It looked as if the Summoner had suddenly transformed from the 'moon' into the 'sun,' and then they saw the 'sun's' light in the starry sky shrink inward until it turned into a majestic golden lion beside the unicorn."
"It's not a lion, it's a big cat. Mia has turned into this again. But this time she's not wearing armor."
"How did it evolve incorrectly again?"
Xia De was no less surprised than the others. He hadn't expected such a turn of events. He vaguely guessed that it was the result of the power of the star that the god had taken out earlier being integrated into Xiaomia's body.
The cat was now engulfed in flames, its size even larger than Ellie's. Seemingly displeased, it flicked its tail at Shad on the unicorn's back. As the dark demon under the starry sky raised its hand towards them, its amber eyes, which had been fixed on Shad, finally turned casually towards the figure:
"Roar!"
Night turned into day in that instant, and no one saw what happened in that brief moment. Only when the starry sky reappeared did the burning demon plummet like a fireball towards Mount Fatumunster.
No one would doubt that it was still alive. Even those who weren't users of the power of the sun, like Iluna and Miss Camille Eden with the "Sun Emblem," could clearly sense how terrifying the "fire" enveloping the demon was; it was truly not much different from the sun.
And then, two seconds later—
Boom!
The fireball crashed onto the northwest side of Mount Fatumunster, causing the entire island to tremble. The good news, however, was that the local city hall didn't need to explain to the islanders what it was; given the beautiful meteor shower, a meteor landing on a snow-capped mountain was perfectly normal.
And so, after the cat's angry attack, Falling Star Bay finally fell silent. The people on the sea looked at the starry sky in confusion, not quite understanding what had happened after the Summoner manipulated the stars. Under the starry sky, two figures, one white and one gold, were already chasing and "playing" with each other, rushing towards the direction of the falling fireball.
The ring mages of the Church and the Society of Prophets did not pursue them; they still needed to deal with the traces of the battle at sea and the entrance crack of the slowly disappearing astral fragment.
At this moment, everyone in the astral fragment emerged. The cultists had scattered and fled during the battle, and the Church needed to track them down to determine the truth of tonight's events.
Now that we know we can contact the "Caller of Gods" through the Fatu people, we can ask the Caller of Gods about other matters tomorrow.
But the girls certainly wouldn't stay on the sea; they quickly flew towards the snow-capped mountains to catch up with Shad. Finding Shad's location wasn't difficult at all, because the spot where the "fireball" had crashed was still billowing black smoke.
Sylvie, who had transformed into light, and Vanessa, who was of the highest rank, were the first to arrive at their destination, where they saw a huge crater in the snow-capped mountain.
The giant crater is located on the snow slope on the side of the third peak of the snow mountain. All the surrounding snow has melted, and the charred black soil inside the crater is still radiating an astonishing heat. Meanwhile, the scattered silver-blue lights in the black soil seem to blend into the giant crater.
Shad was standing next to the giant black pit, with a tired Ellie behind him and Mia standing on Ellie's back.
"Where are the enemies?"
Sevier and Vanessa asked the question first, and Shad, staring at the giant crater hundreds of feet in diameter, said with certainty:
"He's definitely dead, don't worry about that."
