Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 501 The sky collapses

"But shouldn't you pay attention to that initial barrier?" Truman blinked at Saslir's words and looked towards the Astral Plane.

"I've noticed you've become really lazy. You always make me handle everything, no matter how important," Truman complained.

"If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. Right now, you're the tallest." Sasriel's expression remained unchanged.

As the gods were shocked by the death of the God of War and the name of Lilith, and vaguely glimpsed the dark hand that had shrouded the world for thousands of years, the starry sky outside the original barrier, that is, outside Earth, began to become lively.

click!

The God of War died, and his divine kingdom withered instantly due to the death of the true god; even the frozen twilight crumbled and collapsed.

The God of War's Kingdom happens to be located at one of the weakest points of the initial barrier.

The moon is twinkling, Venus is twinkling, Jupiter is twinkling, Mars is twinkling...

Soon the entire starry sky began to twinkle.

Such an anomaly could not be concealed at all. All the true gods felt a chill run down their spines immediately, as some terrifying threat was targeting them!

Clang... After the stars twinkled, the entire starry sky trembled.

The moon suddenly lost its crimson hue and became bright and clear.

The fire ignited, like a real torch in the dark starry sky.

……

At this moment, all the Outer Gods put aside all their fighting and cooperated to a certain extent.

A crimson tide surged from the vacuum, along with blood trees blooming with roses, self-encircling black thorns, and a lightless black hole that devoured everything...

The appearance of these things brought the true gods, who were still in shock, to their senses instantly.

In the first instance, all the true gods used their respective powers to seal off the God of War's kingdom.

However, it was ultimately too slow.

Given the status and authority of the Outer Gods, this flaw is almost impossible to plug. Even if it were plugged, many Outer Gods possess abilities such as "rebooting" and "time reversal."

Crimson seawater, rose-red blood trees, fateful thorns, and a lightless black hole... all these strongest attacks from the Outer Gods were concentrated on the barrier's weak points.

Rumble!

Not only did the initial barrier tremble violently, but the entire Earth shook, and the amplitude of the tremors grew stronger and stronger!

"Damn it! Where's the dream?!" The hot-tempered "Lord of the Storm" roared out.

The primordial barrier vibrated at an unprecedented frequency, a vibration so intense that even the true god was terrified, fearing that the primordial barrier would shatter and the end times would arrive prematurely.

In that case, no one but a dreamlike character would be able to leave alive!

"What a dream!?" The other true gods couldn't help but look at the "Eternal Sun" divine kingdom.

However, the "Eternal Sun" divine kingdom remained peaceful, and the "Eternal Sun" within it did not use the power of authority to seal off the God of War's divine kingdom like these true gods.

Crack... The sound of shattering, conveyed even at the conceptual level, made even the true god tremble; it seemed that it was already too late.

"Hmph, so you only think of me now?" Truman watched everything that was happening in the Astral Plane with a calm and collected demeanor, showing no intention of making a move.

"You really aren't going?" Sasriel looked at the trembling initial barrier with a serious expression.

"You don't need to go either." Truman reached out and pressed down, and the "Gensokyo" in the land of the forsaken gods suddenly burst forth with brilliant light. This light fixed the continental shelf like nails, and the trembling Earth gradually stabilized.

"You shouldn't go either, because..." Truman looked up at the astral plane, "...the sky has collapsed."

Sasriel suddenly looked at the original barrier, which had been invisible but had now manifested under the combined attack of many Outer Gods.

The collapse of the heavens is an exaggeration. Although the end of the world is near, there is still some time to go. The barrier was left by the original creator and it is not so easy to forcibly break through.

Otherwise, those Outer Gods wouldn't have lived until now.

The collapse of the heavens here refers to the God of War's Kingdom, which is located in the middle of the struggle between the true gods and the outer gods. The God of War's Kingdom is almost easily destroyed!

The shattered divine kingdom transformed into clusters of orange-red twilight, piercing through the astral plane and falling back into the real world.

They fell into many places in the real world; some collapsed mountains, some created lakes that could age all living things, and some combined with certain creatures to form terrifying monsters...

"These fragments..." Sasriel looked cautiously at the fragments of the divine kingdom.

"You did this on purpose?" He looked at Truman.

"Yes, after all, it's better to guide than to block." There must still be many dark schemes by the Outer Gods in some corners of this world, and it's time to clean them up.

Rather than waiting for all the Outer God-related conspiracies to erupt simultaneously at the end of the world, it's better to create an opportunity for them and then wipe them out all at once...

Truman is already very skilled at this method.

"...Whatever you want." Sasriel nodded slightly, but still asked, "What about this?"

Sasriel pointed to the place where the God of War's kingdom had collapsed. Without the suppression of the true god's kingdom, and with the attack of the outer gods, that weak point had become the weakest point on the original barrier.

Specifically, this manifests as countless external divine contaminants entering the barrier in various forms, beginning to pollute everything that can be polluted.

If left unchecked, it will inevitably bring about the end of the world.

"I had already made arrangements." Truman took out the "Book of Dreams," tapped the cover lightly, and sent something out.

"He has been waiting for a long time too."

……

About a few hours ago, Russell returned to the present Gustav family in his true form, a rare occurrence.

The Gustav family is now one of the most powerful ducal families in the Solomon Empire.

The current head of the Gustav family is Russell's youngest son, Bonova Gustav.

This was a tall, handsome young man with long chestnut hair. He wore the robes of the Church of Steam and Machinery and was dealing with the various problems his family was facing because of the war that had swept the continent.

He was already an angel of the god of steam and machinery, and took over the family's power after the death of Roselle's eldest son.

After all, the Gustav family was too eccentric. Rosell hadn't returned home for hundreds of years, and Bernadette spent most of her time in the Dream Duke's Mansion and at sea. The responsibility of carrying on the family fell on Bonois' shoulders.

"Father?" Bonova Gustav suddenly looked up and saw Rosell standing in the room.

"Why are you back?"

"I've come back to take a look." Rosell looked at the Rosell family mansion with a calm expression, but his gaze softened considerably when it fell on Bonova.

"You..." Bonova's spiritual subconscious gave a signal, sensing something unusual.

"Are you looking to learn about the war?"

"No, you did very well, much better than me." Russell sat down on the sofa, looking approvingly at his second son.

Before the father and son could say anything, they both looked towards the door and saw that someone else had returned.
