Plunder the Heavens from American Comics

Chapter 190 Observer

Holding Leila in his arms, Jonathan stroked her right hand, hooked her fingers, and gently pulled the trigger.

A UV bullet was fired from the barrel at extremely high speed.

Because it is an electromagnetic rifle, it doesn't make much noise.

A wanderer in front of him was hit by a UV bullet, and a light blue spot appeared on his body.

Then Jonathan saw the entire body of the wanderer being swallowed by the light, leaving no ashes behind, and it disappeared between heaven and earth.

"This effect is amazing." Leila said in shock when she saw the effect of the UV bullet.

Rhea and Clea were not much better, only Elena seemed a little heartless.

But it is true that compared to her explosive magic, UV bullets really seem to be nothing.

Afterwards, Elena showed no interest in the electromagnetic rifle.

Leia doesn't like ranged weapons.

Under Jonathan's careful teaching, Leila and Claire quickly learned how to use the electromagnetic rifle.

Then they kept experimenting on those wanderers on the road.

"lalalalalalalala" a light chanting sound came from a distance.

After a while, a chandelier flashed bright yellow light, which was very obvious in the fog of the night.

Jonathan, Rhea and others became alert.

Because of the fog, several people stood almost side by side, and did not dare to leave the team too far.

After all, in the thick fog, no one knows what kind of monster will emerge from the fog.

Now that they have left the city, no one knows what emergencies may occur on this country road.

The singing of the girl in front of them confirmed their thoughts.

Soon, the five people formed a circle and stood back to back.

Although the singing came from only one direction, no one knew whether they would be suddenly attacked by monsters from behind.

Lalala's singing became louder and louder.

The dim light from the chandelier became brighter and brighter.

At this moment, Jonathan felt that the voice seemed a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

After a while, the outline of the chandelier went from blurry to clearly visible.

The familiar detective hat and the familiar chandelier. The person who came was Ivy whom Jonathan had met a while ago.

"Oh, what a coincidence. Mr. Traveler~"

After seeing Jonathan, Ivy's eyes lit up with joy, and then she said with a smile.

"I feel like it's not a coincidence at all, Miss Ivy." Jonathan looked at Ivy. It seemed like she was coming straight towards him.

"Alala, people who are too smart will be disliked~" Ivy threw a coquettish glance at Jonathan.

"Then go to hell and hate me!" After saying that, Jonathan directly picked up the electromagnetic rifle in his hand.

The UV bullet hit Ivy directly.

Looking at the slowly expanding light spot on her chest, Ivy didn't understand why the person who had no way to deal with her a while ago could kill her with just one bullet when they met again.

Of course, she didn't have any time to think, and she disappeared between heaven and earth.

"Do you know her?" Leila asked curiously, nudging Jonathan with her elbow.

Jonathan nodded and said, "She is the Soul Eater I mentioned earlier."

Leila was also a little surprised when she heard this.

"It seems that you have been marked by her, otherwise she would not be able to find you through the thick fog." Leila put down the electromagnetic rifle in her hand and said.

"Mark?" Jonathan thought he didn't see what Ivy did to him.

"Yes, soul marking. There are no symptoms, but your soul aura will be locked by the Soul Eater. No matter where you are, as long as you appear in the dark outside, the Soul Eater will be able to find you."

Hearing this, Jonathan could only say that the monsters in this world were indeed quite strange.

After dealing with Ivy, everything went smoothly.

The five people have now arrived at the entrance of Dusk Forest.

Looking at the woods ahead.

The large number of dead trees without leaves make the forest look gloomy, and the occasional crows' calls make the forest look spooky.

Jonathan suddenly understood why no adventurer was willing to take on his mission.

At this time, even Leia and the others were trembling a little.

Of course, Elena and Clea are exceptions.

"Let's go." Jonathan looked at the forest and said to the few people.

Although their legs were trembling a little, they thought that after Elena became Jonathan's magic consultant, they would have a life of plenty to eat and drink.

Suddenly, I mustered up my courage again.

He swallowed, took a deep breath, and took the first step.

The Dusk Forest was not as Jonathan had imagined. He encountered many terrifying monsters as soon as he entered.

It was very peaceful along the way.

Not to mention monsters, not even a single living creature could be seen.

Jonathan took out the map Terra gave him and looked at the marked location, which was not far ahead.

Although it went very smoothly, he always felt that it was a bit too smooth.

Generally, in such situations, a big boss will appear.

With this feeling, a while passed.

The five people walked for a while and came to the place marked on the map.

There was no small box as Terra had mentioned, but there was no big boss as Jonathan had expected either.

Instead, there was only a dried corpse covered with rags appearing at this coordinate.

Jonathan: “???”

Is this awkward?
Helplessly, Jonathan had to squat down and study the body in front of him.

"Hmm? Why do you look familiar?"

The robe of the corpse on the ground was tattered, but it was still possible to see that it was the same robe as Terra's.

"What's going on?" Jonathan thought to himself.

At the same time, he used his severely suppressed telekinesis to gently lift up the corpse's hood, revealing its face.

I saw that he had the same silver-white hair as Terra, and his eyes were also covered with a black cloth.

"Isn't this Terra?" Looking at the corpse, even though its face was haggard, its facial features were still very similar to Terra's.

Jonathan felt that he was probably tricked by the woman named Terra. "I'm sorry, although it was wrong of me to deceive you, please forgive me, I have to do this."

Suddenly, a sweet female voice sounded.

Jonathan looked back and saw another Terra appear behind him.

As for Leia and the other girls, they stood there motionless, as if time had stopped.

"Jonathan, I have frozen time here. Please forgive me for bringing you here in this way."

"As you can see, my body is on the ground."

"Wait a minute!" Jonathan suddenly interrupted Terra.

"How did you do it!? Time stopped? What on earth do you want from me with this ability?" Jonathan was now full of questions.

Seeing that Jonathan was full of questions, Terra just shook her head gently.

He continued, "This is my last bit of strength. In order to save this world, please bring Athena back to the dimensional world."

"Do you know the dimensional world?" Jonathan asked with a frown.

"As the god of this world, I can see some fragments of the space-time continuum. Of course, due to uncertainty, this may not be accurate."

"But I also saw your dimensional world clearly."

"If possible, let Athena enter your world. Only by entering your world can you change the fate of this world."

"Otherwise, it won't take long for this world to disappear completely. And Athena will also disappear completely."

Hearing this, Jonathan felt overwhelmed.

"No, what's going on? Even if I wanted to bring the Athena of this world back, I can't!"

Jonathan asked, looking at Terra with a confused look on his face.

"What exactly are you thinking?" Jonathan suddenly asked in a harsh voice.

Jonathan was unwilling to trust this woman, or goddess, who had deceived him once again.

When Terra heard Jonathan's question, she was silent for a long time before she spoke.

"If you really can't accept it, I can use the last bit of my divine power to set up a barrier to restore your telepathic ability and let you feel my true thoughts."

"But please listen to my voice and do what I say, otherwise everything will be in vain."

After Terra finished speaking, she looked at Jonathan quietly, waiting for his answer.

Unlike the Terra on the ground, the Terra in front of him not only had the voice of a girl, but his eyes were not blind either.

So there was no cloth covering her eyes.

So at this moment, the light red pupils in her eyes were looking at him intently.

After being looked at by the girl like this, Jonathan felt a little soft-hearted. Although Terra had deceived him, she had indeed not done anything to harm him.

But one must always be on guard against others. Since the other party can let me hear her inner thoughts, that's the best.

Thinking of this, Jonathan nodded to Terra.

Terra was delighted when she heard this, and then she used the last of her divine power to build a barrier to temporarily block the suppression of the void.

Instantly, Jonathan felt the force pressing on him disappear, and his telepathic ability was restored.

"Jonathan, I am the creator god of this world, and the master of this world. I believe you should have learned Athena's identity from Athena in the dimensional world."

"She is indeed the world consciousness of this world, but she did not lose her memory just because the world was about to enter the countdown of life."

"Her memory was sealed by me. It was for the sake of a glimmer of hope for this world."

Up to this point, Terra had not lied.

Jonathan nodded, motioning for her to continue.

"Thousands of years ago, I predicted the invasion of the void, so I have been preparing for this day."

"And the corpse under your feet is also my real corpse, but the divine power on it has been completely sucked away by the void."

"Now, only some matter remains in this world, and the rules have been destroyed by the void and are in ruins."

"If you want to save this world, you need to go back a thousand years. As long as you see me back then, everything will be solved."

"So when time reverses, please take Athena with you. If the world consciousness also reverses with time, then all my efforts will be in vain."

Hearing this, Jonathan was a little confused, so he asked, "Now the world is destroyed. Even if you are the God of Creation, are you sure you still have the ability to send me back a thousand years?"

Then Jonathan pointed to the body on the ground and said, "You are all dead."

Jonathan's question made Tailai smile slightly, and then he said, "You are right, but I am not prepared to use up all my own divine power to send you back."

"I have been preparing for a thousand years to break time."

"So you don't need to do anything, all you need to do is wait."

"If I'm not mistaken, one day the past will call you back again, Jonathan."

Terra said cheerfully.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Jonathan didn't quite understand.

"Have you forgotten what I told you? It's not you who chose this world, but this world that chose you. One day, you will come back."

"Before that, please take Athena away and protect her well."

"If you would like, please place your left hand on this crystal."

After saying that, Terra took out a crystal from her arms and threw it in front of Jonathan.

Originally, Jonathan wanted to reach out and catch the crystal, but he found that the crystal did not seem to be restricted by gravity and just floated in the air.

Looking at the crystal, although Jonathan used telepathy to confirm that Terra in front of him was not lying, the other party was a god after all.

How can I be sure that the voice I feel is true?

What if the other party cheats on you?
Jonathan was reluctant to gamble.

Seeing Jonathan's hesitation, Terra knew that he still didn't believe in her.

So he sighed and said, "Jonathan, I know you are wary of and don't trust me. After all, you are still very weak now."

"So I won't force you. But please keep this crystal."

“In the future, it will determine the fate of this world.”

Terra said, beginning to seem a little weaker.

Seeing this, Jonathan quickly asked, "What will happen to Athena in your world if I refuse?"

Hearing this, Terra shook her head and said, "I don't know. Soon, this world will go back in time, and everything will be reversed."

"But the erosion of the Void cannot be reversed, and Athena, the consciousness of the world, has been eroded by the Void."

"Perhaps, in the end, Athena will collapse in the process and become a consciousness that simply manages this world. She will no longer be the Athena of today, right?"

After saying that, Terra felt as if she had said something wrong, and shook her head again, "Perhaps, Athena can't go back to the past at all."

"Time is continuous. Even if we go back to the past, without you as an observer, for us, it is just a replay of the script that should have been played out."
