Retired God King becomes Witch Idol Manager

Vivian sighed softly and tightened her pale little hand.

Just as rumored, he was an invincible commander; such a man was simply not someone that Emperor Wilhelm or Governor Perrin could defeat.

"kill!"

Sion raised his bone spear high, and the soldiers of the Evil Slaughter Army roared as they charged towards the enemy with even greater ferocity, sweeping across the battlefield with colorful arcane energy waves as if they were free.

So many Abyss citizens and several powerful figures perished, yet the Evil Lord Commander still considered it worthwhile. Vivian's biggest mistake was not escaping to regroup!

Once the Holy Archmage dies, the Federation will be vulnerable without the protection of the stars, and the entire foundation of the Wings of Freedom will belong to His Majesty the Demon King.

Aggression never needs a reason. The resources and wealth occupied by the Free Federation can make all forces envious. However, no one would have thought that the Galactic Lord would take the initiative to open the gates and hand over his homeland to others.

Sion was determined to wipe out the Eternal Apostles here before advancing on the City of Freedom, and Vivian was unwilling to sit idly by any longer.

The academy dean snorted coldly, raised his hands high, and quickly outlined eight spacetime runes. The star mark on his forehead suddenly burst out with dazzling light.

One rune soared into the Milky Way to communicate with the stars, another protected her companions behind her, and the remaining runes all merged into her delicate body.

Vivian's slender, delicate body instantly transformed into a pure energy body, shining like stars!

"You asked for this!"

Suddenly, the night sky brightened, and countless stars burst forth with dazzling light, as if all the stars had opened their eyes and were looking down upon all living beings.

The powerful and mysterious spirit instantly enveloped hundreds of thousands of Evil Slayers, making them enemies of the starry sky, leaving them nowhere to escape.

Vivian interlaced her fingers and said in a cold voice, "Stars fall!"

Countless powerful energies descended from the sky, and the twinkling stars drew ever closer, answering the call to the enemy that would destroy the stars!

Sion's pupils constricted, his purple eyes gleaming with an eerie light as he roared, "It's a forbidden spell! Activate the barrier!"

The entire arcanist force simultaneously wove a magical shield defensive barrier, pouring astonishing arcane energy above their heads to form a giant black net, attempting to capture the stars.

Boom!

Boom!

Bang bang bang!

However, it was all in vain. Even hundreds of thousands of troops could not withstand the Starry Sky Curse of the Eternal Apostle. The giant net was woven for less than three seconds before it crumbled and shattered.

An earth-shattering tremor erupted in the outer city, the power of the stars illuminating the night sky as bright as day. The shockwave knocked down city walls and watchtowers, destroyed residential buildings, and blasted craters tens of meters deep into the ground, almost leveling the northern part of the city.

Once everything had settled down, the disheveled and grime-covered saints huddled behind Vivian, trembling, staring in disbelief at the countless craters before them.

If it weren't for that rune protecting everyone, they wouldn't have been able to escape the devastating forbidden curse.

This... this is how we won?

As expected of the Saint Magus of the Stars...

No, at least the wormhole is still there, but it's trembling violently, sometimes large and sometimes small, sometimes contracting and sometimes expanding, affected by the intense spatial fluctuations of the Milky Way plane, making it extremely unstable.

Amidst the smoke and dust, the man carrying the bone spear was still there, riding a skeletal winged horse, circling the sky.

Xi Weng spat out a mouthful of blood. His injuries were not serious, but when he looked back, he saw that the Evil Slaughter Army had been killed or wounded more than half of its original number in the blink of an eye, leaving less than one-fifth of its original force. Even fewer of them were still able to fight. The large army that had gathered in the north of the city had been almost completely wiped out!

Xi Weng gritted his teeth and said, "So this is the Law of Resonance? It lives up to its name!"

Every saint has their own laws, and Grant's unstoppable breakthrough law caused Invincible to suffer a bit.

Vivian's Star Resonance, however, only exists in legends, and no one has ever witnessed it firsthand, because no one has ever forced the headmaster to take action.

Today, I finally saw it and discovered that every planet that fell from the sky was in the hands of the academy headmaster, influencing each other and amplifying their resonance.

A single rune may not seem like much, but with the Law of Resonance, one plus one no longer equals two!

This is the most monstrous law for the Star Sorcerers, who excel at wide-area attacks. One person alone is enough to destroy an entire plane, let alone an army.

If it weren't for the giant net spread out by the Evil Army to buffer the situation, the main plane of the Milky Way would probably have been mostly smashed through by stars.

143. His saintly demeanor transcends the world.

"Ha... Hoo..."

Vivian's chest heaved, her breathing rapid, indicating she had expended considerable energy; the star-shaped mark on her forehead glowed faintly.

The stars in the sky have dimmed considerably, and such a forbidden spell will not be used again in its current state.

The academy headmaster's eyes burned, his fingers trembled slightly as he gathered star power once more. It was still too much of a stretch for such a small number of people to fight against the elite of the Evil Lord's army. At this point in the battle, only two runes remained.

All she could see was the collapsing, unstable wormhole; getting any closer would destroy all the spatial passages in the North City.

The Rhine Holy Warrior, who is closest to the galactic plane, should have already received the news that the Legionary Mages are reconnecting the city hall portal. As long as she can hold out until the army arrives, she can die in peace.

Chi!

Air explosions were frequent in the sky, drawing ever closer, when a sinister force suddenly appeared, traversing space and reaching the Night Elf's side.

Vivian sensed danger, her eyes suddenly lit up, and at this moment she didn't care about anything else.

She gritted her teeth, raised her left fist to form a magical shield, and raised her right hand, her index and middle fingers each drawing spacetime runes to trigger the law of resonance.

"Full moon!"

All remaining power was poured into this one strike. The two aurora beams of light from his two fingers converged into a powerful pulse, buzzing and vibrating, and struck the dark wormhole directly!

At that moment, a gleaming white bone spear shattered the fragile shield, and a devastating dark spirit pierced through the arcane shell and the magical robes, penetrating the slender waist of the Star Saint Sorcerer.

"Well!"

Vivian's face turned deathly pale, her arms trembled, and the aurora instantly veered off course, leaving terrifying streaks across the earth and sky.

What hindered her was not only the excruciating pain, but also some mysterious force that distorted the trajectory of the aurora.

That is the law of the old man.

Vivian collapsed to the ground, clutching her bleeding abdomen, a mixture of bewilderment and relief flashing in her eyes.

The black-haired man with a broken horn on his forehead stood behind Vivian, looking down expressionlessly at the abyss, the greatest obstacle to conquering the galaxy.

Sion's bone spear and body were stained red with the blood of the Holy Archmage. Vivian's fall signaled the defeat of the Sanctuary. The obstacle of the North Wall had been completely removed, laying the foundation for the victory to come.

But there was no joy on his face; instead, his expression was unusually somber.

The annihilation of hundreds of thousands of Abyss citizens was undoubtedly a dereliction of duty by the commander.

It is a disgrace for a demon warrior to exploit the virtues and unwavering faith of a powerful figure instead of engaging in a fair and square challenge.

None of these things made Mr. Xi happy at all.

"Get out of here! You vile demon, stay away from Lady Vivian!"

A Saint-ranked Temple Guardian charged fearlessly, wielding a magnificent greatsword. The powerful Wind Whisper Spirit tore through the air, and the turquoise storm moved at an astonishing speed.

Sion merely glanced at him, and the storm immediately ceased, shattered into pieces by a streak of dark light.

"Uh... Huh!?"

The palace guard was momentarily stunned; a bone spear had pierced his throat, and he was vomiting blood.

Almost instantly, Sion appeared before him. His speed was beyond description, and he effortlessly took the life of a saint.

The faces of the surviving saints on the battlefield were filled with disbelief.

"Law... Shrinking the Earth!?"

The Golden Guardian's rough voice boomed.

Hearing about it is one thing, but seeing it with your own eyes is quite another.

Shrinking Earth makes Sion an omnipresent, teleporting demon on the battlefield. When a warrior obtains a teleportation technique that requires no chanting, it becomes a nightmare for all magic-based classes.

Toy with the laws of space before the apostles of the Time Guardians, and then to destroy the entire galaxy by stepping over their corpses...

How ironic?

The horned demon closed the guard's eyes, cradled his dying, trembling body on the ground, and showed no mockery on his face, only muttering to himself.

"Give up. The saintly demeanor of the transcendent realm is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Although I have only stepped halfway in, you cannot even imagine what I can do with runes. Vivian could have defeated me, but she no longer has the chance. Wings of Freedom has no chance of winning."

Everyone's hearts sank.

The extraordinary realm is an unknown domain that exists only in legends and cannot be defined using human wisdom and energy units.

The commander of the Evil Army, the Unforgiven King, is also a quasi-transcendent saint.

"I do not deny my despicable actions. There is no fairness on the battlefield, only the victor and the vanquished. As I said before, I am the commander of the Evil Slaughter Army, and my loyalty to the Demon King has long surpassed honor and dignity."

Sion sighed, his cold gaze fixed on the white city-state engulfed in flames, and he raised his spear and shouted.

"Form ranks!"

The surviving members of the evil army responded with fierce shouts, their roars echoing across the mountains and fields, still deafening and sending chills down one's spine.

The remaining forces of the Evil Slaughter Army began to advance over the city walls into the inner city, and nothing could stop them anymore.

In a direct battle where both sides are evenly matched, the academy headmaster's forbidden spell would be enough to change the situation, and no matter how strong Sion is, he can only assassinate one person at a time.

But at this moment, the Wings of Liberty are defending their homeland from the jaws of countless demons. All the renowned powerhouses of the galactic plane are fighting bloody battles here until they fall, and they have no more reinforcements.

Vivian struggled to her feet, blood gushing from her abdomen. The wound was deep, and the blood was gradually turning black as the corrosive power was eroding her body.

Her eyes were clear and bright, undeterred by despair and sorrow.

Mr. Xi sighed, lowered his proud head to Vivian, and showed the highest respect to the strong.

"The Demon King said I was no match for you, and I never believed it. It's a pity that I'm destined to never be able to challenge you openly on the battlefield."

"There's something I've never understood: how did you manage to get Governor Pei Lun to betray the Federation?"

Vivian asked softly.

Mr. Xi nodded and answered readily.

“Pei Lun was not a traitor. He never bowed his head until his death and killed many of my trusted officers. The black lich turned his body into a flesh puppet, and inside the skin was a shapeshifter. Now that its mission has failed, it has most likely died at the hands of your people.”

Sion frowned slightly, clearly disliking the Black Lich's vicious methods, but had to admit that her scheme was very effective. "Pei Lun... is a respectable warrior. He did not lose to me, but only to the Holy Alliance."

"I see. I'm certain the Black Lich is dead. Then it must have been his disciple who plotted against the Federation."

Mr. Xi remained noncommittal.
