Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 157 Medici's Ambition

A terrifying torrent of information swept across the entire space, threatening the very foundation of this world's existence and causing signs of its shattering.

—After being swept away by the information deluge, the various types of information that make up this space have become unstable and show signs of being assimilated by the information deluge.

The second sequence of "Secret Seekers," the "Sage," has already achieved self-informationalization, becoming a "Knowledge Demon" or "Information Being."

Having achieved the uniqueness of the "Hermit," Truman can go a step further, enabling him to digitize the material world and draw all his enemies into his battlefield.

In his numerous battles with the Source, both overt and covert, Truman has become quite adept at dealing with these "smugglers." As long as the coordinates they inhabit are destroyed, they will be greatly weakened.

Back then, "Knowledge Wilderness" had the uniqueness of "Hermit," but now "City of Calamity" is even worse. It didn't even get the uniqueness of "Red Priest" from Medici, and it's still "Hanging Gardens."

Such a "city of calamity" cannot even be used by the true god; Medici could resolve it given enough time.

"Explode!" Truman reached out and pressed down, borrowing the power of the "Door" authority from his main body, intending to further shatter this space.

"kill!"

In a daze, Truman heard the shouts of an army, and the heads on the bone tower flew up one by one, marching in formation like an army.

These heads all bore some kind of calamity, disease, frost, black flames, and so on.

These terrifying heads crashed into Truman, and about ten paces away, they hissed and transformed into a stream of information, where they were assimilated.

But these heads are not the key; the key is the aura they carry—a power that information technology cannot assimilate, a power of extremely high status!

"City of Calamity!"

Perhaps due to preconceived notions, Truman saw an ancient city built of deep black stone, with boundless calamities surging outward from its walls, causing the earth to crumble and flames to rise everywhere.

An ominous aura emanated from the city, manifested as a dark, disease-laden gas and crimson lava flowing across the land.

In the dim light, Truman could see the rusty banners planted in the center of the city, exuding an aura of doomsday calamity.

In the realm of the source, the Creator's feminine and masculine aspects have merged, leaving only extreme symbols such as destruction and collapse.

hum!

A kind of hidden contamination was transmitted to Truman as his gaze fell upon him, and at that moment, the information that constituted his body seemed to be undergoing some kind of mysterious change.

The symbols representing information underwent a fundamental transformation, twisting into symbols of natural disasters and war, and began to attack Truman.

Truman's body exploded, returning to the state of information flow light, but even so, the contamination was still there, threatening to corrupt the information flow.

"The Sea of ​​Dreams".

It was as if a phantom ocean of starlight descended, instantly cleansing away all the aura of iron and darkness, allowing Truman to recover.

The substance that constitutes the "Hidden Sage" contains a large amount of dreamlike phosphorescence. The uniqueness of this "Hidden Sage" has long been marinated in dreamlike phosphorescence, and even the "Wilderness of Knowledge" cannot take it back.

"Watch this!" Medici seized the opportunity, his eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty light, and a terrifying power burst forth from his body, exploding with a roar as the Iron Blood Sword fell.

laugh!

With a soft, strange sound, a small hole appeared in this world, the "weak point" of the entire world, which Medici had breached.

He knew what Truman wanted to do, so He cooperated and created an excellent opportunity for Truman.

Truman's near-complete disregard for the "City of Calamity's" contamination rendered almost all of the City of Calamity's most powerful attacks ineffective.

laugh!

Truman placed his hands on the space and slowly tore it apart.

The aura of the "City of Calamity" was eroding Truman's body, which was made up of information flow, but it was completely ineffective.

If Medici were to receive these auras, the pollution would undoubtedly become even more severe.

Medici swung his sword again, and the power of "Slaughter" acted on space, helping Truman completely tear open this space.

Truman looked once more toward the source of the aura of the "City of Calamity" and saw the fluttering banners.

Truman waved, then gave a heavy shove.

Clang.

The door slammed shut, and Truman and Medici appeared in the room, the illusory world now completely shattered.

"Thanks!" Medici said quickly, his body disappearing to deal with the effects of the leaked source energy.

Truman paced around the room, and soon after, Medici returned.

"Tell me about it."

Truman took the seat of honor and looked at Medici as if he were the guest in charge.

Medici probably knew that the thing was indeed not to be trifled with, and unusually refrained from making any sarcastic or provocative remarks.

“He came to me,” Medici said, stroking his chin. “At first, it was just some strange feeling; I sensed something watching me.”

"So I set a trap."

Truman paused, his hand stilling as he poured himself a cup of sweet tea. He looked at Medici and said, "You're really something!"

Setting traps is probably Medici's instinct, but this time the prey was too fierce and almost devoured him, the hunter.

Moreover, to some extent, this "City of Calamity" is the ultimate form of the "Hunter," so isn't this trap also a trap set by the "City of Calamity" for Medici?

"So what are you going to do?" Truman asked, looking at the flag mark that hadn't faded from Medici's forehead.

"I don't need your help." Medici curled the corners of his mouth, refusing any assistance from Truman.

"My struggle with Him, my war with Him, has only just begun!" Medici was full of fighting spirit and had no intention of washing away the banner mark between his eyebrows.

"Once I become the 'Red Priest,' I will use this mark to access the 'City of Calamity' until I completely control it!"

After becoming a god, if one wishes to take the next step and become an ancient being, this step is also indispensable.

"Heh, those true gods haven't even touched the edge of the source matter yet, and I've already taken the lead," Medici said sarcastically.

That's not entirely wrong. Judging from the results alone, the only true god who came into contact with the source matter was probably "Death" Salinger.

In addition, even Amanisis is plotting to contact the "River of Eternal Darkness," and Medici now has a weak connection with the Source.

"You have almost no chance of succeeding," Truman said bluntly, without any subtlety.

"You!" Medici glared at Truman. How dare you look down on me?

"To be honest," Truman shook his head, "you underestimate the Source Matter. It's almost equivalent to the 'Old Ones' themselves. Even if you become a god, it will be extremely difficult."

Moreover, you may not become a true god.

One more chapter will be a little late.
