At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier.

Chapter 109 The Vatican, Britain, and the World's Extraordinary Organizations Are About to Gather
"What is that thing! Why can it talk!" The captain, clutching his phone whose communication had been disconnected, stared in despair at the monster that seemed to defy gravity and stood on the black mud.

His ship had sailed through more than a dozen countries and encountered monsters no less than fifty times, but he had never encountered a talking monster.

"Everyone, get your guns out and equip yourselves! We can only save ourselves now!" the captain shouted after a brief period of despair. After despair reached its end, anger over the monster that threatened his life came.

"Yes! We have to save ourselves! Everyone, arm yourselves!" the first mate shouted. Even though his crotch was already soaked with fear, the will to survive overcame all his terror.

"Doing nothing means only waiting to die!"

"Understood, Captain Jaden, First Mate Jackson!"

"I'll go open the warehouse right now!" Second Officer Leoz rushed towards the warehouse in a flurry of activity: "Follow me and move the weapons!"

US ocean-going freighters are legally equipped with some light weapons, which are used to defend against piracy. Although pirates are less common now, they are still present. Sometimes, illegal armed groups in war-torn regions will target ocean-going freighters.

Therefore, the sailors on the ship were basically armed militiamen, or even veterans.

Crates of weapons were taken out of the warehouse and tossed to the sailors, whose eyes were bloodshot. Even the cooks and cleaners were equipped with rifles, and the captain and first mate were even armed with machine guns.

"Shit! We're short-handed! I should have brought those bastards back to work on vacation!" Captain Jaden cursed.

The number of people on the cargo ship is currently the lowest in a year. This is mainly because the previous ship's route crossed two oceans, causing many crew members to want to take leave. Currently, the entire ship, including the cooks and cleaners, has only about forty people.

But thankfully, those bastards took leave, thus escaping a disaster.

"Hahahaha! New humans, we are new humans!"

"We're going to wipe out all the old humans here before Mom arrives, hahaha."

"Old humans, there are many old humans over there!"

"I hate anything the old humans made, hahaha, kill them all, hahaha."

"No! Let them kill each other, hahaha, that's how we prove we're intelligent new humans loved by Mom, hahaha."

One after another, the Rahmu emerged from the dark sea and stood on the surface. Some of the Rahmu even grew wings similar to those of bats. They were laughing and communicating with each other, as if celebrating their birth.

They are different individuals, but they do not have an independent self. They are like an ant colony, with Tiamat as the queen. Their only purpose in existence is to obey the will of humans and Tiamat.

Their interactions with each other are merely instinctive imitations of humans and do not represent that they truly possess self-awareness and intelligence.

After leaping out of the dark sea, they sensed the nearest human presence and rushed towards the ocean cargo ship like water spiders. Their numbers were more than ten times the number of humans on the ship.

Others flapped their wings and flew over, laughing loudly.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Rahmu surged towards the ocean freighter from the water and the sky like a swarm of locusts, the magic of the Sea of ​​Life making the dark water glow red.

The magic of the entire sea rose, turning the sky black and red. Sunlight shone through the black and red sky, making the whole scene look like being in hell.

"Aaaaaah! Demons! They're demons! We can't possibly win!" The chef had already broken down before even firing the first shot, seeing the monsters swarming in like locusts. He dropped his pistol and scrambled toward the cabin.

Upon seeing this, Captain Jaden burst into curses: "Coward! You're a damn coward! Trapped at sea and unable to move, you're going to die sooner or later! You might as well bravely kill a few monsters! Maybe you can even go to heaven after you die!"

If everyone were to collapse in this situation, then certain death would be inevitable.

He violently ripped the cross off his neck and held it high.

"The gods are watching us! The gods only favor the brave! No matter what wrong things you have done in the past! At least now, your courage to fight the monsters will definitely make the gods take notice!"

Making mistakes isn't scary! What's scary is not daring to face them and not daring to make amends!

"Show me your courage as men!" Jaden roared at the trembling crew.

The method to gain the favor of the gods has long been known everywhere. He had even achieved 'source awakening' in South America. Unfortunately, he was once a U.S. Marine and unknowingly made a mistake with his unit in the Middle East.

After realizing that what he had done was not just, he left the navy and used his demobilization pay to rent a cargo ship to start a long-distance cargo business. Later, his business grew bigger and bigger, and that's how he got his current cargo ship.

Most of the sailors on his ship were retired marines. Many of them had to leave the service because of injuries, while others, like him, could not accept that the army they had joined was an unjust army.

Perhaps it is because he participated in an unjust war that he is not favored by the gods, but he can choose to become a righteous person from now on.

Past mistakes need to be made up for tenfold. The path is right under our feet, and the gods will never deny everything because of the mistakes of ordinary people.

First Mate Jackson roared, "I've heard it! Whenever a great disaster occurs, the gods are watching! Don't be a coward!" Even now, his hands were trembling so much that he could barely hold the gun handle.

"Yes! God is watching over us! I am a devout Protestant!"

"We can't let the demons look down on us!"

"If you die fighting a demon, you'll definitely go to heaven!"

"What's there to be afraid of in death! The Bible says that if you die fighting the devil, you can go to heaven!"

"Fight these monsters! We must kill at least one!"

When faced with a desperate situation and having no other choice, coupled with the inspirational speeches from the captain and first mate, faith became the only thing that helped everyone fight against their fear. Even though everyone was still afraid, there was a hint of madness in their eyes.

Just then, a piercing clanging sound came from the water; it was the sound of Rahmu climbing on the side of the ship.

The piercing sound of the wind grew closer and closer; it was Rahmu, flying in the sky, who was the first to arrive above the ocean freighter.

"Hahaha, old humans, old humans! Hahaha." Rahmu didn't attack immediately, but instead landed on the container with a crack and laughed eerily.

"Let them kill each other, let them kill each other. We'll let you go as long as you kill one of the old humans."

After saying that, he rushed towards the fully armed men at great speed. They couldn't react at all. They only heard a few cracking sounds of bones breaking, and several people were knocked down and rolled on the ground.

"Ahhhhhh—" Some of the people who were knocked to the ground had collapsed shoulders, some had twisted thighs, and some had collapsed chests. They were unable to scream and their mouths were open in a ferocious manner, with blood gushing out of their mouths.

"If you don't obey, I'll kill you all, hahaha." Rahmu was already on another container, one of its forelimbs piercing a sailor's chest and lifting him up.

"Gulp..." The sailor stared in horror at the red and black spikes piercing his chest from behind. His lungs had been punctured, and he could not make a sound.

"Hahaha, kill them all if they don't obey."

"Kill them all, kill them all."

"To kill each other."

"They'll kill each other if they don't obey, hahaha."

One after another, the Rahmu fell from mid-air onto the containers, their heads, with only mouths, twisting and turning, some even sticking out their tongues and laughing.

Clang clang clang clang... At this moment, a sound came from the guardrail on the edge of the cargo ship, and the entire edge of the hull was covered with Rahmu's sharp limbs.

The entire ship was surrounded by Rahmu.

"Gulp..." Jaden's teeth were already bleeding from biting them. He swallowed the blood in his mouth and used the flesh on both sides of his mouth to stimulate the pain so that it outweighed the fear.

"Will killing each other spare us?" First Mate Jackson asked in a trembling voice.

"Jaxson! What are you saying?" Jaden stared at him in disbelief.

The other sailors also swallowed nervously, seemingly tempted.

“That’s right, hahaha, old humans, those who survive killing each other will be spared.” A Rahmu laughed, twisting its head which had only a vertical mouth.

"Hahahaha." Rahmu's collective laughter was like countless bees flapping their wings, making everyone on the ship want to kneel down and vomit.

"Fuck!" First mate Jacson roared, holding a machine gun and pulling the trigger at Rahmu on the container, and flames instantly burst from the muzzle.

Da da da da da da da—

"You think you can fool us with the lies of mere demons! Old humans, I'll teach you all to die!"

Golden bullets kept hitting the Rahmu, sparks flying as the bullets collided with their casings.

However, firearms were not entirely useless against them, still leaving bullet holes in their exoskeletons. But the holes were shallow, barely allowing the bullets to penetrate the skin and not enough to cause fatal damage.

"Fire!" Captain Jaden shouted as he reacted, pulling the trigger of his machine gun, which spewed fire continuously.

Da da da da da da——

Da da da da da da——

As the first shot rang out, the sailors instinctively pulled the triggers, and rifle bullets continued to fire at Rahmu.

There are just too many Rahmu; they can hit him no matter which direction they shoot from.

Although Rahmu have no sense of pain, they can still be knocked back by the kinetic energy of bullets, and bullets that hit Rahmu in the mouth can even penetrate their heads.

However, their heads are not their weakness, or rather, they have no fatal weakness at all. They have no heart, no brain, and not even a core. They can only be killed by breaking them.

"You...you old humans, since you won't obey, then kill you all!" Rahmu, whose head had been pierced, spoke, and then lunged at a sailor.

"Thud!" The sailor's chest was pierced by a sharp forelimb, then another forelimb pierced his thigh, hissing—

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

Red paint splattered in all directions, even splashing onto the neighbor's wall.
"Gosen!" The sailor, whose face was splashed with water, was so frightened that he wet himself.

"Help me! Help me! Help me!" Gosen writhed and twisted as he was impaled in mid-air.

"Aaaaaahhhhh..." The sailors, terrified and out of their minds, fired wildly. They didn't know what to do anymore and could only pull the triggers.

*Thud!* Another sailor was slammed against a container by a Rahmu, its sharp forelimbs piercing his body repeatedly. Before he could even take a breath, the sailor was riddled with over a dozen holes.

"Aaaaah! Damn it, damn it, damn it! You demons! At least I'll kill one of you before I die!" Jaden roared, his eyes blazing with fury. He threw his empty machine gun to the ground, picked up his axe, and charged forward.

"Even killing just one will surely save many more lives from the hands of you demons!"

"God! I don't expect to go to heaven, I just hope you think I'm right now!" Jaden roared as he rushed toward Rahmu, who was about to tear Gosen in half, and chopped down on the limbs strung together by Gosen.

Click!

The axe struck Rahmu's forelimb with tremendous force, sending him flying backward, but a crack appeared on his forelimb.

A winged Rahmu swooped down at him, but Jaden instinctively rolled on the ground to dodge it. He roared again and charged at the somewhat confused Rahmu, who had been slashed by him.

"Aaaaaaah! We have to kill at least one!"

Jaden's eyes were bloodshot, and the webs between his hands were bleeding from his first swing of the axe.

At that moment, he felt an even greater surge of power within his body, and he even felt as if he could sense his own soul. All the noise around him disappeared.

thump! thump!
At this moment, he could only hear his own heartbeat and breathing, and his eyes could only see the demon he wanted to kill.

He rushed to the demon, raised the axe high, and swung it down with all his might. The axe vibrated like a shockwave blade.

He could actually feel the sound of metal vibrating.

The axe blade sliced ​​across Rahmu's forelimb, and this time, instead of being knocked away, it easily chopped him down.

Jaden, his eyes bloodshot, swung his axe down again, aiming for the head. The blade pierced through easily and struck the deck without hindrance.

when--

A steel plate, three centimeters thick, was chopped into with an axe, the deafening sound of metal colliding echoing throughout.

Rahmu was split in two with a "plop," and the grayish-green liquid burst out, soaking Jason.

"Haaah, haaah..." Jaden gasped for breath, staring in disbelief at his masterpiece. He had actually killed a demon with just two axe blows.

It felt as if something was flowing through his body, giving him immense power.

Furthermore, he can feel the vibration of the metal in his hand, and he can control the frequency of this vibration.

"Source Awakening?" Jaden's eyes welled up with tears. "Have I been acknowledged by God?"

Before he could think any further, he picked up his axe and charged at the next Rahmu: "Aaaaah—"

But before he could rush forward, more Rahmu pounced on him, *splat*—

His thighs, chest, and arms were pierced and he was nailed to the deck.

"Hoo... At least I killed one." Jaden was covered in red, with a pool of blood beneath him. He grinned ferociously. To him, receiving the gaze of the gods before his death was enough.

It's just a pity that I couldn't atone for my past mistakes.

Jaden closed his eyes and awaited his next moment of death.

But death did not come; instead, warmth came, and even the penetrating wounds on his body seemed to stop hurting. Light shone through his eyelids into his pupils.

The shrill, cacophony of monster sounds vanished, as if the world had fallen silent, only to be followed by the voices of the crew.

"Ahhhh...a miracle!"

"Waaaaah! God has come!"

"Waaah, great god, please save me!"

Jaden suddenly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Rahmu, who had been nailed to the deck, being enveloped in a huge blue bubble and floating up.

The forelimb that had pierced his body was also pulled out, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Pfft!" Jaden felt his heart pounding, relieved that his heart hadn't been pierced, and shakily got up.

At this moment, the monsters on the container deck were either enveloped in blue bubbles or bound in place by emerald green vines growing from their bodies.

Looking out at the dark sea tinged with red light, emerald green vines appeared rapidly like duckweed, binding the writhing demons.

Looking out, the emerald green color spread rapidly, covering the entire dark red sea surface.

However, some of the emerald green duckweed was also withering rapidly, and the bound demons regained their activity and flew into the sky.

At the same time, a narrow waterway appeared in front of the cargo ship, and the propeller, which had stopped spinning, started turning again. "It's working! Oh my god!" Jaden knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face. "Great God, I will definitely follow the Bible and become an exorcist to protect people!"

"There's no time for anything else! Set sail! Set sail!" First mate Jackson shouted, limping as he clutched his fractured shoulder.

"Get the ship out of here quickly! Don't waste the opportunity the gods have given us." Jaden picked up his axe and glared angrily at the demons bound by the gods: "I'll kill them all!"

Something suddenly occurred to me.

"Has anyone awakened their source potential? Has anyone awakened their source potential?"

"I...I've awakened my willpower, Captain! But I'm sorry, I can't help you," Gosen said weakly, lying pale and in a pool of blood with one leg torn off.

"I have awakened." The cleaner stepped forward, but one of his hands was gone.

"I."

"I have awakened as well."

Five more people stepped forward.

Those who had not yet awakened looked at them with envy, but they knew their own situation. They had done wrong things, and if they wanted to gain the approval of the gods, it was not enough to simply have the courage to stand up and fight against the demons.

"Push all these monsters sealed by the gods overboard!"

After Jaden finished speaking, he grabbed his axe and charged at the immobilized demons. He was able to kill one or two demons with a single swing of his axe. This made everyone realize that the captain had also awakened his abilities, possibly even awakening them all at once.

For people like them who travel all over the world, 'Source Awakening' is no secret, it's just that they can't learn it.

Aside from the boatmen, everyone else had applied some medication to themselves, taken a few painkillers, and then used ropes to get Rahmu off the boat.

It wasn't that they didn't want to kill them, but killing them would take a lot of time, and they needed to escape this dark, muddy ocean first.

Tokyo Bay is quite large, covering an area of ​​1320 square kilometers, and is one of the world's ten busiest shipping lanes, with countless ships.

These ships were all experiencing similar scenes at this time.

The Japanese Coast Guard, Self-Defense Forces, embassies of various countries, US bases, and the Vatican's priesthood all received countless distress calls at this time.

It instantly attracted worldwide attention, with satellites from various countries pointing their lenses at the Tokyo Bay area.

Images were transmitted to countries all over the world.

From a satellite perspective, a dark area with a reddish glow is rapidly spreading outwards from the outer edge of Tokyo Bay, accompanied by light in shades of light in shades of blue and emerald green.

However, the light blue and emerald green light did not seem to stop the spread of the black and red area. Instead, it was weakened and then bloomed again, seemingly forming a tug-of-war.

High-precision satellites can see countless monsters surging within the black and red area, their density and astonishing numbers sending chills down the spines of anyone watching.

They even saw countless black dots leaping up from the dark red sea surface, gathering into swarms of pitch-black 'locusts' and surging towards the inner side of Tokyo Bay.

……

Europe, Italy, Vatican City, the Holy See.

At this moment, Pope Francis was listening to the confessions of bishops from various regions who had come to St. Peter's Basilica.

Although the Vatican has become the world's largest charitable organization after decades of management by the Pope, this does not mean it is free from corruption.

The Lord appointed him as Pope and bestowed upon him the Crown of Thorns and the Papal Scepter. The Crown of Thorns granted him the ability to distinguish between good and evil lies, and also gave him the divine power to unleash great healing light.

The scepter in his hand can summon thunder, representing divine punishment, and bring destruction to evil things.

Therefore, he wanted to ensure that there was absolutely no place in the entire Roman Catholic Church that could be defiled.

During this period, he dismissed a third of the bishops, priests, and nuns, and then appointed those who believed in the Lord, had awakened their will, and voluntarily joined the Vatican to serve in Catholic churches around the world.

Moreover, he quickly gathered awakened individuals and extraordinary beings within the Catholic Church to form the 'Order of Vatican Priests', using violent means to purify evil.

The priests will have two chief priests and two deputy chief priests, and twelve judges, all of whom have obtained holy marks and are extremely powerful in combat.

Besides them, there are seventy-seven high priests with holy marks, each of whom leads a priesthood of five hundred extraordinary individuals.

Whenever they receive a plea for help from the public, the pastors scattered around the world will act swiftly to purify evil.

Organizations that believe in God are certainly not limited to the Roman Catholic Church. There are also the 'Jihad Legions' in South America, the 'Knights of the Round Table' in Britain, the two major sects of Muslims in the Middle East, and numerous smaller sects all over the world.

Although they did not listen to his authority as the pope, everyone acknowledged him as God's agent on earth.

The only thing that frustrated the Pope was that Lord Cherubim was unwilling to come to the Vatican, but instead became one of the two leaders of the 'Knights of the Round Table'.

“O Lord, make us your instruments of peace.”

Inside the church, peaceful prayers to God resounded in unison. Bishops, priests, and nuns held crosses in their hands, gazing up at Pope Francis, the representative of God on earth.

"Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is cruelty, let me sow forgiveness; where there is suspicion, let me sow trust."

“O Lord! Make us your instruments of peace. Let us sow hope where there is despair, let us sow light where there is darkness, let us sow joy where there is sorrow…”

The hurried footsteps broke the sacred atmosphere as a cardinal in red robes burst in and headed straight for the Pope.

The Pope sighed as he looked at the impatient cardinal: "Bishop Walter, you still can't shake your impatience."

"It's terrible, Your Majesty! Something terribly wrong!" Walter whispered, sweating profusely. "A supernatural event comparable to the British incident has occurred."

"What?" The Pope's expression changed drastically. How long had it been since the events in Britain?

"The location is Tokyo in East Asia. The priests' appeals for help are almost overwhelmed. And this time it's demons, lots and lots of demons. It seems like demons have rushed out of hell." Huawater handed the phone to the Pope.

The Pope looked grim as he watched the video playing: "A demon, it truly is a demon. The entire sea has turned into hell."

"With so many demons, this is probably not just the British incident; it's far more terrifying than the British incident."

The events in Britain were more of a natural disaster; the deaths caused by the Mana spores were few, and a few saints with stigmata were enough to protect a city.

But this ocean that breeds demons is different. These overwhelming demons will slaughter humans like locusts, and they must be killed to stop them.

The difficulty level is on a completely different level.

And who knows how many demons this ocean of demons can spawn?

Moreover, it seems that gods from foreign mythology have already intervened, but they have failed to stop them, only managing to slow the demons' flight out of the sea.

"I must pray to the Lord and seek His revelation." The Pope hurriedly walked towards the prayer hall, and as he walked, he began to jog, the Water Elemental Eye at his waist radiating elemental power.

Although he is over seventy years old, he has the strength given by God and his physical condition is in its prime.

Upon entering the prayer room, I gazed up at the murals depicting the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the Virgin Mary, and the twelve apostles of God, held the Eye of God in my hands, and prayed silently.

"Great and Most High Lord, please give me revelation."

The Eye of God held in his hand began to pulsate slowly, and strands of information appeared in his mind.

The information is limited, but it can be understood instantly.

"The original sin of mankind, the beast of original sin, the womb of return, the beast of return that mankind must overcome, the evil Beast of mankind... Tiamat, the creator goddess of Mesopotamia." The Pope suddenly opened his eyes, his clothes soaked with cold sweat.

"The Beast of Original Sin, the original sin that humanity must overcome! This is humanity's trial, a trial that must be overcome!"

This is not a disaster, nor is it a trial given to mankind by God, but rather the original sin created by mankind itself.

"Tiamat, the creator goddess in Mesopotamian mythology!"

As the Pope, he knew that in its early days, Catholicism would belittle local myths and legends wherever it went in order to spread the faith.

In Mesopotamian mythology, the creator goddess Tiamat was reduced to the five-headed dragon, the source of the five-colored dragons that guarded the sea of ​​original sin in hell.

"This is humanity's original sin. If humanity waits for God's salvation, it will never be able to overcome it! We must call upon the elite high priests of the priesthood to go there."

The Pope stepped out of the prayer room, looked at the waiting Walter, and tapped him on the head with his scepter, conveying the message without explanation—this was one of the scepter's powers.

"Ouch!" Huawater winced in pain, then turned pale: "Humans, humans are evil!"

"Quickly gather all the elite members of the priesthood and head to Japan!"

"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope," Huawot replied hastily, then ran towards the direction of the priesthood, communicating as he ran, with a grass elemental holy mark slowly appearing on his forehead.

After the events in Britain, Walter returned to the Vatican with stigmata and was appointed a cardinal by the Pope, while also serving as one of the seventy-seven archpriests of the Order of the Priests.

I never expected to face such a huge test right after taking office!

……

the other side.

Cardiff, in British Wales.

Thanks to the efforts of heroes from all over the country, most of the ruins have been restored into streets, though they are far less magnificent than before, and most of the buildings are temporary structures.

However, the city hall in the very center of Cardiff has been replaced by a cathedral made of white marble. Next to the cathedral is another large, square building made of white marble, which is the headquarters of the Knights of the Round Table.

The entire Wales region is currently governed by the Knights of the Round Table. The original political system has not changed, but the officials and police are completely different.

The Knights of the Round Table are only responsible for eliminating crises that threaten the public. They are a supernatural organization with the power to oversee officials.

After all, most of them don't know how to govern a country. It's better to give the governance to someone who has the ability. They only need to exercise the power of supervision.

Moreover, those who serve as rulers are all awakened to their willpower, and both they and the people feel very reassured.

As for the former powerful and wealthy businessmen? Most of them have become ordinary people, either fleeing the country or living honest, ordinary lives.

As for the military factories that produce weapons, as well as armed aircraft, they were naturally taken over by the Knights.

Next to the Knights of the Round Table building is a training field the size of a football field.

"Unqualified! Unqualified! You can't even use basic sword techniques. Do you want to fight monsters with your bare hands?" Gavin said sternly, sending one of the awakened superhumans flying with a casual sword strike.

"stand up!"

"Yes, Lord Gavin!" The superhuman stood up, gripping his greatsword with both hands, his eyes sharp.

The extraordinary individuals around them also stood tall and proud, exuding an aura of iron and blood. Each of them had killed at least one Devouring Beast, not to mention countless others like the Spine and Eye Tumor.

Their strength comes entirely from their leader.

Lord Gavin was given a holy sword by the gods, taught swordsmanship by King Arthur, and granted the thirteenth seat of the Knights of the Round Table.

They don't need to worry about getting injured during training because the Archangel Chrysalis is Gavin's older sister. They can train as hard as they can, as long as they don't die. They also want to become paladins who have obtained the Stigmata.

Currently, the entire Knights Order has only nine paladins, including the two knights-in-chief, Saint Allen and Quentin, who have displayed great prowess in London.

Just then, a beam of blue light appeared in the sky above the training ground. Everyone looked up and saw three angels with blue wings descending behind them.

"Lady Irene." Everyone bowed slightly in reverence.

"Sister." Gavin sheathed his sword.

“Gavin, I have received a divine revelation from the Lord. A great calamity has befallen Japan, an East Asian country. It is a calamity far more terrifying than that of Britain. We must lead the Knights there.”

……

Along the Tokyo coastline, screams and shouts filled the air as chaotic crowds rushed into the city.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--"

"The end of the world has come!"

"Run!"

"My child! My child, don't push me!"

"Oh my god! Run!"

Some terrified people looked back as the dark red sky and dark red seawater on the Tokyo Bay skyline stretched towards them.

They were incredibly fast, swarming like locusts in the air between the dark red clouds and the sea.

While people screamed and ran away, three girls dressed as shrine maidens were going against the flow. The beach was deserted, but behind it was a chaotic crowd.

Rumble, rumble——

Thunder roared across the coastline, and dark thunderclouds spread rapidly, with countless purple lightning bolts churning within them.

“How terrifying… even more terrifying than the abyss…” Yae no Miko looked at the black and red world advancing at an extremely fast speed, and images of the abyss invading Inazuma five hundred years ago flashed through her mind. At that time, the abyss invasion of Inazuma was far less terrifying than what she saw now.

Although I knew from the beginning that a major disaster would strike soon, I didn’t expect it to happen so quickly. Didn’t the information I gave her say that there were still at least ten days left?

"Master Yashinari, what should we do?" Inaba Chitose asked fearfully, swallowing hard.

"I, my sister and I will not back down." Inaba Touka clenched her hands.

"You guys just need to catch the few who slipped through the net." Yae no Miko shook her head, took a deep breath, raised her hand, and the 'Wheel of a Hundred Wishes' behind her head instantly shone brightly.

Rumble, rumble——

The thunderclouds in the sky began to swirl, forming a funnel-shaped structure, and the lightning within them intensified.

"As long as Zhen is behind me, there is nothing to fear." Yae no Miko thought to herself, manipulating the thunderclouds in the sky to unleash lightning on the approaching Kuroshio.

Rumble, rumble, rumble——

Countless bolts of lightning, as thick as buckets, burst forth from the funnel-shaped, swirling thunderclouds and blasted towards the Kuroshio.
