Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 397 Even that person can’t do it!

On the evening of October 1578, 10, the Twilight Cult attacked Alexei Island...

[You are favored by the "Long River of Fate" and receive a prophecy of the future. Comment: I take back what I said before, you are truly "favored by fate"!
Special rewards: survival points +1000, origin +10, spiritual level +10, toughness level +10. 】

Wei En didn't pay attention to the evaluation on the panel, but looked at the prophecy given by the "destiny guidance" with a complicated expression.

He was sure that before seeing this prophecy, the two original sub-bodies, Swift and Swift No. 2, had been staying in the space between the eyebrows without any unusual movements.

but,

"How can the 'River of Destiny' give a prophecy without using the [Mark of Destiny]?"

Wei En didn’t quite understand. He was not sure if he was the only one like this, or if other “favored ones of destiny” were the same as him?
"It seems necessary to contact the Spiritual Mystic School... and that hammer girl Lotilia can also..."

Then his thoughts returned to the content of the prophecy.

The Twilight Cult will attack Alexei Island tonight...

Wayne did not doubt the authenticity of the prophecy. Given the strangeness of the monsters from the Twilight Cult and the fact that he had previously killed several mystics and gravediggers, it was indeed possible that they would attack the island.

But what he didn't understand was——

The three major wizarding schools have clearly determined that they are the target of the expedition, so why would the Twilight Cult come here first?
Is it because of the Salvatore legend that they are about to arrive at Alexei Island?
Wei En had a strange look on his face. "Could it be that they are considering my island as a means of getting rid of me?"

He didn't quite understand what those monsters from the Twilight Cult were thinking, but that didn't stop him from looking ugly.

If it was really as he guessed...

"court death!"

Thinking of this, Wayne did not hesitate. He stopped for a while to check the progress of Zero and Sharapova, and then directly returned to Alexei Island through the teleportation spell.

The moment he appeared, he cast Shadow Step and entered the realm of death.

This time, he did not dare to look directly at the ancient god, but looked towards Alexei Island outside.

Want to find the monsters of the Twilight Sect.

"No?"

Wayne looked around the entire island inch by inch, but didn't see any monsters from the Twilight Cult.

He thought for a few seconds.

"Tonight... so they haven't gotten here yet?"

Wayne frowned and stepped out of the kingdom of death.

The next second, red-haired Marco appeared in the castle again.

He used the illusion technique very carefully to change his body shape and appearance, and even made slight adjustments to his original characteristics.

[Master, are you back?]
[It doesn't seem like it, who is there?]
[I misperceived it again. It seems that I missed my master too much...]
Wayne listened to Mitra's thoughts and smiled in his heart.

The hidden effect of Illusion is sometimes more powerful than Shadow Step.

If it weren't for the situation like Marco saw his true self before, there would be only a handful of people who could have spotted him.

After doing all this, Wayne's spiritual power covered the entire island and he flashed to the west of Alexei Island, far away from the storm and the Cathedral of Dawn.

He speculated that when the Twilight Cult came to attack, they would not choose the location of the church, but would come from the other three directions.

The most likely location is on the western coast, where there are cliffs as a defensive barrier.

Wei En walked calmly on the tavern street outside the high wall. His spiritual power and original power explored out together, carefully observing the movements around him.

"I'm afraid all the pirates in the Cordo Sea will give the Black Pearl a try in this recruitment."

"It doesn't matter if I give it a try. If I pass the selection, at least I won't have to worry about anything for the next twenty years!"

"It's very difficult. Fortunately, the Black Pearl is recruiting a lot of people this time. In addition to the big pirates, we need nearly two thousand extraordinary people at the executive level, director level, minister level, and captain level..."

"Are the wizards coming? Why do the guards look more serious? And they have changed into neat and clean clothes."

"You just realized it? Not only the guards, but also the knights of the Dawn and Storm Churches. Didn't you see that they all stood straight?"

"Are you planning to let those wizards see the elegance of their Orthodox Church?"

"who knows……"

Wei En listened to the discussions of the pirates around him and randomly found a tavern to sit down.

"I don't know you, Mr. Pirate. Would you like a drink?"

The waitress in the tavern, a scantily clad girl, swayed her slender waist, leaned in front of him, and smiled seductively.

Wayne glanced at her and said, "Dark beer."

Speaking of which, he hasn't drunk for a long time.

The last time...well, it was when I was in the city-state of Caster.

"Ok."

The sexy waitress left with a giggle, muttering something like "gentleman pirate" and "weirdo".

Wei En laughed in silence, but didn't care about it. He focused more on the island and the deep sea outside the island.

I have to say, those monsters from the Twilight Cult arrived at the perfect time.

He had just transformed his gains from Wojciech Island into strength, and as soon as his survival points were used up, he received a reward.

Moreover, this time is different from the previous Ales and the saints of the Church of the Dawn. With his current strength, even if he cannot defeat the "heroic" saint Xizi Sepulda, I think he is not far behind.

Well, that's on condition that she doesn't use her authority to make the projection of the Lord of Dawn descend.

While drinking beer, Wayne paid attention to the situation inside and outside Alexei Island and listened to the pirates' conversation.

Come to think of it, he hadn't seen Triangle Eyes Ronan for a while.

The last time I saw him was after the attack of the Saints of the Church of Dawn.

After that, Ronan and other pirates from the Red Hair were assigned to Ubli's leadership by Mitra and became ordinary guards on the island.

Although Ronan's position is not high, his salary is not low.

Ten gold pounds a month was almost one-fifth of Ubley's income, which was pretty good.

At least it is much better than Wayne's predicament in the city-state of Caster.

"Have you heard? Something happened on Red Moon Island."

"How could that be? The Red Moon Church is running the island very well. I heard someone mention it a few days ago. They offer very high conditions to those who come to the island.

Not only is food and lodging provided, but gold pounds are also given, and there are even resources such as potions and equipment to improve your strength..."

"I've heard that too. Many people who are tired of life on the sea have headed to Red Moon Island."

Wayne noticed the conversation of several drunken pirates nearby and watched silently.

Red Moon Island is the island that is immune to the Red Moon pollution...

"Something really happened!"

"Yesterday, a brother on the same ship as me sent me a message saying that something very strange happened on Red Moon Island!"

"The people from the Red Moon Church are recruiting all the people who come to the island to become Red Moon believers..."

"Uncle Manuel, this doesn't seem unusual, right? The Red Moon Church did the same thing when it was in the Western Continent."

"Listen to me!" The pirate named Manuel said mysteriously:

"But the weird thing is, those who became Red Moon believers no longer had Red Moon faith, and their appearance and body shape did not change."

"What's this... huh!?" "Have you noticed? The biggest feature of the Red Moon Church's followers is that after embarking on the path of faith, their physical appearance and body shape will change, and they will all become handsome men and beautiful women."

"But now nothing has changed. Do you know what this means?"

"Does this mean that Lady Red Moon... um, that god, has a problem?"

"No!"

Manuel shook his head and said, "My brother said that he suspected that the people on Red Moon Island now are not from the Red Moon Church!"

"what?!"

"impossible!"

"The Red Moon Church Archbishop Edlas Korda led the Saintess and the Knights to occupy Red Moon Island. The whole continent knows about it. How could there not be people from the Red Moon Church there?"

"This is the strange part. How else can you explain the changes in the believers?"

"This……"

Hearing this, Wei En raised his eyebrows and a hint of doubt emerged in his heart.

As early as when he was in the city-state of Caster, he had seen the changes in the believers of the Red Moon Church.

That Red Moon Church's follower introduced the poor people of Laos Street to the Red Moon Origin in just one night. Not only did their skinny bodies become stronger, but their appearance also became much more handsome...

Then something must have happened on Red Moon Island now!
However, Red Moon Island was too far away, so he didn't have to worry about the changes there affecting him.

Don't worry about it for now.

"Uncle Manuel, how did your brother escape? If something really happened on Red Moon Island, how come he was not hurt?"

"I'm not sure about that. It seems to be related to his origin. His Straw Sandals bloodline can sense danger."

"Ah... There are dangers everywhere in this world. I originally planned to live on Red Moon Island after retirement. Now it seems that it is better to stay on Alexei Island..."

"That's true. Although the Black Pearl is no longer in control of this island, given the tyranny of the Ghost School wizards, not many people dare to attack here."

"Hehe, not much, but not nothing!"

"Have you forgotten the projection of the Lord of the Abyss? I almost died that time!"

"That time was indeed dangerous. More than one-third of the people on the island died. If it weren't for the 'First Wizard Under Demigod' Salvatore Samuel Capo from the Ghost School, I'm afraid everyone would have died."

"I don't know whether I should thank the 'Disaster Wizard' or blame him... He is really a troublemaker..."

"..."

Wei En laughed inwardly.

He was indeed surprised by Alais' attack.

It was originally thought that after leaving the city-state of Caster, it would take more than half a year or a year for the two to meet again.

Who would have thought that only a month later, Director Ales would be so impatient to come here and die... just like the people from the Twilight Sect who are coming tonight!
"Forget it, just stay on the island for a while."

"Now that the war between the Alaniga and the Black Pearl is over, the Cordo Sea is still in a period of chaos. It would be better to wait until things stabilize before going out to sea."

"Yeah, don't forget the wizards' expedition. The Twilight Cult's bastards are also very powerful!"

"Well, the taboo of Nightmare at Sea is the door of the house..."

"'The Dream of Gamentia', that's what the ghost wizards called it, it should be true."

"Yes, that's the name. They have been preparing this thing since the end of the Third Era. It is indeed terrifying."

"Speaking of which, at the end of the Third Era, many major events occurred, such as the transformation of the Silver Moon into a Red Moon, which has always been a secret..."

……

It was not until nightfall, when the sun was setting and a corner of the red moon could be vaguely seen in the sky, that Wei En noticed something unusual.

"Oh?"

"come yet……"

Wayne noticed some strange, phantom figures appearing on the western coast of Alexei Island.

……

At this time, on Alexei Island, outside the high walls of the city-state.

Dozens of phantoms gathered at the cliffs on the west side of the island, silently carving strange patterns and marks.

As the node engraving was completed, the phantom began to place palm-sized pyramids at the node positions.

Spots of light flickered, emitting a hint of murderous intent.

"The red moon has appeared!"

"Are we about to start?"

"Wait a little longer, they haven't arrived yet, and there are still those deep-sea species."

Several phantoms lifted up their robes, revealing their withered bodies. The several tombstones connected under their arms shook slightly, making clanging sounds.

"The alchemy array is ready. We can activate the city-state erosion array at any time to pull those people on the island into the 'Dream of Gamentia'!"

"it is good."

"But the 'Disaster Wizard' hasn't appeared yet..."

A gravedigger swept his cold and dead eyes across Alexei Island, and his hidden murderous intent was slowly released.

"As long as those people enter the dream, he will appear!"

"Don't forget that even though he's not here, there are still the two saints, Freedom and Valor, and their knights."

"The two cathedrals over there are also troublesome. The effect of the dream can hardly surpass the high wall castle..."

"Don't worry... This battle is only for the coming of the great existence!"

As they spoke, the phantoms lowered their heads slightly and made prayer gestures, as if they were asking for blessings from the great being.

"Great Being? Is McAllister coming?"

At this moment, a calm voice came from not far away, causing all the phantoms to pause.

"You, the 'Disaster Wizard'?!"

"He showed up!"

[You are targeted by Madeline... Sepulveda's murderous intent. Comment: A false nightmare, still not real. The false god who wants to change is coming. Reward: Survival points +200. ]

【…】

[You are being scanned by Eric Stella...Winsky's mental perception. Evaluation: ...Reward: Survival points +100. ]

Wei En lifted the illusion spell and appeared beside these phantoms, his eyes falling on the alchemy circle.

"It seems like you have prepared a lot of things. Are you planning to destroy this island? That won't do!"

“Don’t even mention you. Even if the ‘Lord of Truth and Killing’ McAllister comes here in person, I will make him pay the price!”

When these gravediggers and secret monks saw the appearance of the person coming, they reacted quickly and activated the alchemy array without any hesitation.

"Waugh, Rice, McQueen..."

(Between reality and illusion, dreams and the will to kill exist forever, great)
"Those who blaspheme against the great being will die!"
