Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 216 The Feast Begins!

The pure white light carried a reassuring power, shining warmly on the body.

Even the injuries and lost mana are slowly recovering.

The apostles, however, looked around warily, even with a hint of fear in their eyes.

In a team of five people at most, there is no way that a class like Barrier Master could exist.

Just like Li Xia obtained the Sealed Forbidden Technique, he never used it in the entire second stage.

Teleportation is an extremely rare skill for second-tier beings. None of these dozens of apostles had ever seen it, let alone reacted with the lightning speed of Li Xia.

"Damn it! What is Gug trying to do?!"

Violet's pretty face was contorted with anger.

"I don't know, but I have a bad feeling. I suggest we work together to break the shield! Let's get out of here quickly."

The elderly man in formal attire stood to one side, his face equally grim, stroking his beard.

"Do you need to tell me? Is it that I don't want to?"

Violet sneered. Her first reaction upon being teleported in was to break through the protective barrier and escape.

But just as he drew energy from his blue pack, a notification from the Temple of Light popped up.

[Prompt: Do you intend to violate the team agreement? Confirmation will result in the deduction of 100 million Hall Points and 2 points from all attributes.]

Where the hell am I supposed to get a million Hall of Fame Points?
Violet then realized that the Light Barrier that teleported her there was a positive buff and would not violate the team agreement.

Along with her anger, fear also rose in her heart.

Gug seemed to see through what he was thinking, and just as he was about to leave the team, he launched the plan.

"Disband! Quickly, disband the team!"

One of the apostles could not suppress his fear and almost screamed out.

The elderly man in formal attire turned around and glared at the apostle, growling as he shouted:

"Are you an idiot??? Gug might be waiting for us to disband the team!"

The apostle, stunned by the shout, stared at him, listening to the old man spitting out insults.

"The sheer number of us gathered together constitutes our greatest strength, understand? Over thirty advanced apostles!"
Even that ascended being came here, he was just delivering food to us!
With the team agreement in place, no matter how many schemes Guge has, they can only use other forces to deal with us.

So now all we have to do is find a way to get out of this damn shield!

The old man in the tuxedo looked up, his bloodshot eyes scanning the room before asking:

"Does anyone have any teleportation items? Does anyone have any?"

He was met with silence. Teleportation was extremely rare at the second tier, much like the very popular random teleportation scrolls, which were only seen in small numbers at the third tier.

"I have it, but it can only teleport one person."

One of the apostles shrugged and calmly patted his pocket.

The teammates around him immediately rushed over, their mouths agape, but they didn't know what to say.

Sorry guys, it was a lot of fun with you, but you know, life is only once—so…

He decisively crushed the scroll, and under the watchful eyes of a group of apostles whose eyes were practically blazing with fury, his figure slowly disappeared.

"Out?"

That's pretty simple.
The escaping apostle shook his head, trying to shake off the dizziness from the teleportation.

The world before him had barely come into focus when his smile froze on his face, the color draining away and turning him pale.

He found himself amidst a horde of corrupted tree golems!
"Roar!"

A strange roar rang out, and the corrupted tree golem swung its arms and pounced on him, engulfing him like a tidal wave.

In his last moments, he peeked through the gaps in the monster's body and discovered it.

The original protective shield
Right in the center of the square!
Shuangdao listened groggily to the other apostles' heated argument.

I felt a wave of annoyance, as if the world before me was shrouded in a thin mist.

I kept hearing indistinct murmurs in my ears, as if my head was filled with water.

He didn't know what had happened, nor did he want to know.

All he wanted now was peace and quiet; an urgent longing burned within him like a raging fire. It was the desire to hear the whispers in his ear; he wanted to hear what that beautiful voice was saying.

Shuangdao raised his head, his eyes flashing with an eerie light unlike anything he had ever seen before.

These people are so noisy, why not just kill them all?

He grinned and chuckled; the voice seemed to be praising and encouraging him.
He gripped the hilts of the swords behind his back, and mold spots resembling bruises appeared on his body.

Kill them. Slaughter them all.
"kill!"

He roared, unaware that his voice had become hoarse and terrifying, like that of a monster.

Those annoying things seemed to be frightened by themselves, staring at them with terrified eyes.

A feeling of pleasure surfaced in Shuangdao's dazed mind.

Hehe, they're all starting to be afraid of me now.
So this is what I'm like. I'll become the most powerful apostle.
No, I am the strongest apostle?

Apostle
Who am I again?

I'm
'offspring'

The voice was clearer than ever before, whispering softly in my ear.

'You are my offspring. Go, go and help your mother kill all these outsiders. Kill them all.'
Together with your brothers and your father, kill them all!

The twin swords raised their heads, their faces now covered in black tentacles, their eyes like deep, dark pools.

He revealed an extremely terrifying smile, his arms now transformed into limbs covered in slime and scales.

But the twin swords still gleamed.

'Yes, Mother!' *2
Violet stared wide-eyed, trembling as she watched the two lone wolves suddenly transform into monsters even more repulsive than the corrupted tree golems, and begin attacking the remaining apostles.

Her beloved blue bag had fallen into her arms unexpectedly.

"no no."

Violet clung to him tightly, her eyes emitting a captivating purple light.

The old man in formal attire was directing the remaining apostles in their defense, and this monster was still being considered a member of the team.

Due to the team's agreement, they were not even allowed to launch an attack.

"Damn it, is the temple blind? It's attacking us!"

An apostle roared angrily, calling out repeatedly to the temple.

No matter how you call out, you only get a cold response.

[Apostles No. 855325 and No. 281767 are currently undergoing transformation. Once the transformation is complete, their apostle marks will be removed!]

But things are far worse than that.

Just as the tank in the team had finally managed to restrain the two monsters, a dark figure suddenly appeared in the crowd.

The menacing hammer in his hand slammed down with a whooshing sound.

Ascended Amodrich!

"withstand!"

Despair flashed in the old man's eyes, but he gritted his teeth and also took out a disposable prop that shone with purple light.

Now that things have come to this, we have to fight!
Guge tilted his head and wiped the red liquid from the corner of his mouth with a snow-white handkerchief.

He gazed with satisfaction at the distant Barrier of Light.

Want to fight to the death?
No, no, no, you are all my profits!

[Interim team leader Gulagg requests to leave the team!]

[Please vote during the judgment process]

The number of people who have selected 'disagree' is currently less than ten.

The temporary team has been disbanded.
