Simultaneous travel: City, infinite evolution

While Chen Hong was researching and developing the power of the Godslayer, and learning various spells to enrich his own knowledge,

Erica also handled various paperwork and affairs for the Seven Sisters' Society in the Heavenly Realm, devoting herself wholeheartedly to the new king's cause.

Occasionally, I would look up and see Chen Hong engrossed in his studies, listening to the rustling sound of the pages turning rapidly. For a moment, I was captivated.

"This kind of demon king is so special," Erica couldn't help but think.

Compared to other god-slayers, Chen Hong is undoubtedly extremely special.

He possessed an intellectual quality, unlike other god-slayers who were crude and brutal.

Soon, Chen Hong finished learning and waved goodbye to the Heavenly Kingdom Secret Realm.

Back to reality, less than a second had passed.

"Your Majesty, I have received an important message concerning the gods," Erica respectfully reported, highlighting the key points of her work.

"Speak." Chen Hong picked up a cup of tea, lay down on the sofa, and leisurely drank it.

Erica dared not delay and quickly reported: "We at the Copper Black Cross have received news that an ancient circular serpent-carved plaque, which seems to be a divine artifact, has flowed from Rome to Yingzhou Island in the Far East."

Marquis Voban seems to be searching for it, presumably hoping to use it to summon the disobedient god and thus kill it to gain power.

Marquis Voban had carried out such actions many times in the past, and had even plundered witches with spiritual vision on a large scale to use as consumables for rituals to summon disobedient gods, resulting in the deaths of many witches.

Just today, Knight Liliana, who works for Marquis Voban, went to Yingzhou Island.

Poor Liliana was unaware that the information she left behind while using the power of the Bronze Black Cross to investigate the whereabouts of the divine artifact had already been discovered by Erica, who then sold her out without hesitation.

"Well, I see."

Chen Hong instructed, "Go to Yingzhou Island immediately and find the divine artifact."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange a private jet immediately." Erica crossed her arms at her hips, displaying the proper etiquette of a secretary, and did her best.

"No need," Chen Hong shook his head. "Taking a private jet is too much trouble. We can just teleport there."

Erica was somewhat surprised that the King could teleport such a long distance. Coming from a noble family of magicians, Erica naturally knew the significance of this feat, which was truly rare in the world.

But Erica quickly recovered and gracefully bowed to Chen Hong: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Chen Hong extended his hand, and Erica grasped it gracefully. Her heart pounded, and her face flushed slightly.

Swish~——

The two disappeared.

They teleported instantly to the other side of the continent, to Yingzhou Island.

Meanwhile, on Yingzhou Island, a silver-haired little girl dressed in a primary school sailor uniform, wearing a cute little hood, stands atop a tall building.

“What I seek is the stone of Gorgon.”

O ancient serpent, heed my will and guide the disobedient queen on her journey.

Grant me once more the wisdom of darkness, earth, and sky!

The silver-haired little girl uttered a spell of pursuit.

They flew toward the approximate location of the Gorgon Stone they sensed.

Shichio Shrine.

Chen Hong and Erica's sudden appearance startled the shrine maiden who was sweeping the floor.

"who are you?"

The shrine maiden gripped the broom tightly, somewhat nervous, her eyes filled with vigilance.

Chen Hong merely glanced at her and noticed a stone-carved artifact hidden on her person.

"The Stone of Gorgon?"

Upon hearing this name, the priestess's expression changed drastically, and she became completely wary. Holding a broom, she pointed it at Chen Hong and his companion, saying, "As expected, you came here for this reason. You have ill intentions!"

Erica was only slightly surprised, but she quickly understood everything.

“Witch, there’s no need to be nervous.”

This is the newly born king, Lord Chen Hong.

"And I am the King's First Knight—Erica Brantri." "The King?" The witch became even more nervous, or rather, fearful.

Her petite body trembled slightly, her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with fear.

"He is a god-slayer, a tyrannical king!"

At this moment, the witch recalled being summoned by Marquis Voban and witnessing countless witches like herself die in the ritual of summoning the disobedient god. One by one, they fell to the ground bleeding before her eyes. That tragic scene has never been forgotten.

The shrine maiden, Yuri Mariya, trembled with fear and instinctively gripped the most important Gorgon Stone at her waist.

“Witch, take out the Stone of Rigorgon from your belt. Such a divine artifact is nothing but a source of trouble for you.”

Leave it to me, and I'll ensure your safety.

Chen Hong remained calm and reached out to ask for it.

Yuri Mariya clutched her belt and shook her head vigorously.

"No, no, we can't hand over something so important to a tyrant."

"If we summon a disobedient god here, the entire Yingzhou Island and even the entire world will perish."

There was once such a prophecy.

"When the true form is not retrieved from the goddess, a starless night will cover the entire sky, and the world will be lured to the underworld."

"This is Princess Alice's prophecy. It is said that she, who is well-versed in the position of 'Heaven,' has never made a wrong prophecy."

"And the key to this prophecy is the Gorgon Stone."

“I will not allow you to summon disobedient gods here.”

Looking at the stubborn priestess, Chen Hong shook his head: "If you don't hand her over to me, the disobedient god will still come after you."

The Gorgon Stone is a necessary condition for her to regain her true form, and she will not give up on it.

If you put it here, it's practically the same as giving it to her for free.

On the contrary, if you entrust it to me for safekeeping, you'll be safe.

“That seems to make sense.” Yuri Mariya said hesitantly.

Just then, she heard the voice of Touma Amakasu, the representative of the official history compilation committee, through her earpiece.

"Yuri, say yes."

“But…” Yuri Mariya was about to say something when she was interrupted.

"The Queen has already caught up with us on the island and will find the Gorgon Stone sooner or later."

Rather than that, it would be better to entrust it to the new king for safekeeping.

The new king must promise not to wage war against the disobedient gods on the island.

Our Yingzhou Island cannot afford to become the next Sardinia.

"I understand." Yuri Mariya gritted her teeth, looked up, and gazed firmly at Chen Hong.

"Your Majesty, the Gorgon Stone can be given to you, but you must promise not to start a war on Yingzhou Island and affect the people."

Chen Hong's face darkened, radiating the madness and murderous aura of a god-slayer.

"Am I being too accommodating to you?"

"Your Majesty!"

A terrifying aura spread out, pressing down on Yuri Mariya.

She was immediately forced to her knees, drenched in cold sweat, her face filled with terror, her body trembling violently, beads of sweat dripping down her face.

At this moment, she recalled the nightmare memories that Marquis Voban had given her, and fear surged like a tide.

She spoke with trembling hands:
"My king, I beg you to forgive this lowly witch's overstepping of bounds."

"Please have mercy and spare me and Yingzhou Island."

"This is the Gorgon Stone you requested. I offer it here, and beg Your Majesty's forgiveness." (End of Chapter)
