A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

However, his eyes, which should have been full of wisdom and spirit, were now completely covered by a violent blood red, surging with pure, destructive madness!

It was as if with just one command, this legendary hero would instantly transform into the most ferocious berserker, launching a deadly attack on Wang Chong and the others!

The blond man, Jason, the leader of this group of heroes, seemed to be witnessing the most exciting opening act of a drama. With his signature, slightly flamboyant smile, he clapped vigorously, the sound carrying clearly through the wind and waves:

"Welcome, welcome~ Enemy of the gods from the future, destroyer of the world!"

Chapter 503 Sacred Protective Array

"The destroyer of the world? Ha..."

Upon hearing the address given, Wang Chong's lips curled into a cold smile, and he let out a disdainful sneer, not even bothering to make any extra gestures.

He had no interest in explaining to a clown who was being manipulated by a witch like a puppet.

Wang Chong's sharp gaze slowly swept across the layers of figures on the deck, taking in all the figures starting with Jason.

A rough count revealed that there were over fifty members. It seemed that not only were all fifty of the original heroes of the Agor present, but several more heroes famous in Greek mythology had been added as powerful allies.

Wang Chong's gaze swept past Jason's exaggerated smile and went straight to the true mastermind behind this singularity—Medea, who had not yet experienced betrayal and still retained the innocence of a young girl.

Then, Wang Chong's voice pierced through the roar of the raging wind and waves, ringing out clearly:

"To be able to summon so many Servants at once... it seems that the Demon King really went all out for this place."

The voice of the young girl Medea, clear and melodious like a nightingale's song, reached the ears of Wang Chong and his companions unaffected by the surrounding environment.

"After all, Your Excellency is a powerful figure whom even that great man had to treat with utmost respect. In your presence, we should give our all to express our reverence."

Jason, seemingly finding a sense of purpose, arrogantly raised the corners of his mouth, adopting a disdainful expression, and said, "As an enemy of the gods, to perish under the siege of us heroes, you have every reason to be proud!"

Wang Chong ignored Jason's clamorous declaration, his gaze remaining fixed on Medea, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable power:

"Now that you know my strength, you should understand... you are not qualified to keep me here."

Before he finished speaking, a thick, inky black mist suddenly rose from Wang Chong's body, instantly enveloping him. The terrifying pressure emanating from it surged and spread like a tangible tide, instantly drowning out the roar of the waves crashing against the ship and the deafening thunder.

In an instant, the entire raging stormy sea seemed to be frozen in time! The surging waves were suspended in mid-air, the splashing water was like crystal sculptures, and even the deafening thunder stopped abruptly.

No, not just seemingly! A towering golden figure suddenly appeared behind Wang Chong—Stand World! The golden halo instantly filled the entire field of vision, freezing everything around, including time itself!

Wang Chong had no interest in getting entangled with these self-proclaimed "heroes" any longer. Even if the legendary Hercules stood behind Jason, such power was still insignificant to Wang Chong, who was now capable of defeating Romulus, the chief god of Rome.

What he really needed to be wary of was the devastating attack from the quantum record belt that had already locked onto him! The most urgent task was to immediately eliminate these troublesome ants, take Atalanta and Euryale away from the ship, find an open space, and focus on dealing with the deadly attack that was about to descend from the sky.

"Ok?"

Just as Wang Chong was about to act, his keen [Spell Sensing] passive ability suddenly detected an anomaly! An extremely subtle yet undeniable fluctuation of magical energy was quietly operating in this absolutely still spacetime.

The ether particles, which should have solidified together, disregarded the constraints of time and continued to flow along a certain trajectory.

Immediately afterward, the deck beneath his feet suddenly lit up! A complex and enormous bright white magic circle, like a giant beast that had been lying in wait, clearly appeared in the still darkness!

Wang Chong's expression changed slightly. This was the third time he had encountered an entity that could disregard his time-stopping ability. The first two were Arcueid and Goetia, who relied on their extraordinary strength and fundamental authority.

But what gives these people the right to do this? And if we're talking about a magic array of this level, the only person present qualified to cast it is...

Wang Chong's gaze was like lightning, instantly locking onto the girl Medea. However, she was clearly also enveloped in the golden time-stopping aura, completely motionless.

"In other words... it wasn't Medea herself who ignored the time stop, but the magic circle itself!"

Wang Chong's mind raced, and he instantly grasped the key point: "It seems that this formation was not activated after I activated Time Stop, but was quietly activated and ready to go from the moment I stepped onto the Agor!"

The thought flashed through his mind in the blink of an eye. Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Chong's right hand swiftly grasped the Broken King's Sword, which he had extracted from the system space.

With a sudden flick of his wrist, a dark sword light imbued with an aura of annihilation swept out in a fan shape, covering all the Greek heroes on the deck except for Medea and the other two!

"The Broken King's Sword! A Thousand Years of Lament!"

As the sword light flashed, Wang Chong grabbed at the air with his left hand, and a condensed black mist shot out, precisely binding Medea, the girl whose time had been stopped, and forcibly dragging her to his side.

Immediately afterward, Wang Chong waved his left hand outward. Thick black mist silently surged from the deck beneath Euryale and Atalanta's feet, instantly condensing into a solid platform that lifted the two female companions, propelling them like arrows off a bow from the side of the Agor.

The moment Wang Chong sensed the magic circle, he clearly felt that, under the powerful pull of this strange magic circle, the speed at which the destructive attack from beyond the sky descended suddenly increased!

He didn't have time to get the three of them off the ship to fight!

Therefore, before even drawing his sword, Wang Chong immediately devised a crystal-clear tactic:

First, use swift and decisive methods to eliminate most of the "minions," capture the core spellcaster Medea to take control of the situation, and then safely escort your companions away from danger to prevent them from being affected by the impending terrifying impact.

"Time begins to flow..."

Maintaining time stop was pointless. Wang Chong clearly felt that the destructive force had torn apart the world barrier of the singularity and was crashing down on his location!

"Om-"

Boom!!!

"Ughh ...

The deafening explosion and several shrill screams rang out almost simultaneously!

On the deck, the Greek heroes, ranked among the strongest, lay writhing in agony, their bodies bearing horrific, deep, bone-revealing cuts, teetering on the brink of death.

If it weren't for their honed combat instincts and strong premonition of death, which allowed them to barely activate their Noble Phantasms to defend themselves the moment the sword struck, they would probably have perished long ago.

Otherwise, they would inevitably suffer the same tragic fate as their comrades, being cut in half at the waist by the dark sword light before they could even scream, their souls completely devoured by the power of decay.

"Evil... demon! Monster!!!"

The bloody, hellish scene before him terrified Jason so much that his legs gave way and he collapsed onto the floor.

From his perspective, as soon as Wang Chong finished speaking, his massive hero lineup was slaughtered in an instant by some incomprehensible and bizarre means!

Faced with this overwhelming power and terror, boundless fear instantly gripped his heart, leaving him utterly powerless to even stand.

"Hercules! Hercules! Quick! Help me!!"

Jason, as if grasping at a last straw, screamed hoarsely, placing all his hopes on the legendary hero who remained as silent as a mountain. You...you didn't...you didn't...you didn't...you didn't...

His response was a deafening roar from Hercules! The massive body of the Hercules instantly shifted to Jason's side, his rough yet heavy stone sword slamming heavily onto the deck, sending up a cloud of wood chips.

He stood like an impregnable fortress, his wild gaze fixed intently ahead.

Seeing Hercules' broad back, which seemed to shield him from all danger, Jason's violently heaving chest calmed down slightly, and he looked ahead again, still shaken.

"It's done! It's done!! It's here!!"

When Jason saw the enormous pillar of light piercing the heavens and earth suddenly appear on the deck ahead, his eyes blazed with ecstatic joy. He sprang up from the ground as if he had been injected with adrenaline, as if the fear he had felt earlier had never existed. His face was now filled with twisted triumph and inflated confidence.

"Hahahaha! No matter how powerful and heaven-defying you are, you've still been struck squarely by the divine punishment of the gods!!!"

Jason excitedly walked forward, grabbed the railing in front of the helm, looked down and burst into wild laughter, spitting as he spoke.

In the center of the Agor's deck, the enormous, bright white magic circle shone brightly! A beam of light, surrounded by countless undecipherable mysterious runes and radiating a sacred yet destructive aura, pierced straight down from the sky and precisely enveloped the center of the array.

There, Wang Chong's body sank slightly due to the immense pressure... Also enveloped was Medea, the girl he had captured beside him, whose face was now contorted in extreme pain!

"Wait! Medea! How did you get inside the formation?!" Jason caught sight of Medea in the pillar of light, was startled at first, and then shouted urgently.

"It's...it's alright, Lord Jason..."

Medea's voice was broken and trembling, filled with suppressed pain:

"This...this is all in accordance with the will of the gods...using myself as the core and anchor of the magic power...only then can...only then can the power of the seal be strengthened to the greatest extent!"

Runes and light spots, identical to those of the magic circle beneath her feet and the pillar of light around her, lit up her body, forming a complete sealing system.

"Hahaha! Well done! You truly are my most virtuous and intelligent wife, Medea!"

Jason's surprise was instantly replaced by ecstatic joy, and he showered her with praise without reservation. However, all he saw was the result of the enemy being suppressed at the center of the formation, and he was oblivious to the immense pain Medea was enduring and the heavy price she might pay.

Medea, seemingly oblivious to this, simply forced a sweet yet fragile smile towards Jason and softly replied, "Mmm~"

"What... kind of magic circle is this?" Wang Chong asked in a deep voice, standing at the core of the pillar of light and enduring immense pressure.

He sensed that, apart from the black mist platform that had been sent out to escort his companions, the vast, destructive power within his body was now being frantically suppressed and sealed by an extremely powerful sealing force, as if he were being shackled by layers of chains.

"This is the seal that sir painstakingly crafted specifically for you..."

Although Medea was enduring immense pain and her voice was labored, she did not hide anything from Wang Chong's questions:

"It originated from the ancient times... a forbidden divine art used by saints to seal demons in hell... which was improved by that great man... and became the Holy Protective Seal Array, which is specifically designed to target negative and evil forces."

Medea continued with difficulty, her eyes flashing with awe for Goetia:

"To set up this deadly trap... that lord used almost one-fifth of his accumulated human resources... his sole purpose... was to completely seal away your... evil power that does not belong to this world!"

Medea's gaze swept over the remaining Hercules and his men, who were still watching her menacingly, and she said:

"Once we successfully seal your power... we, the surviving heroes of Greece... will have the right to... utterly annihilate you here!"

Chapter 504 I'll Turn You Back into a Witch

"One-fifth of humanity's foundation has been burned away... That guy Goetia really knows how to spare no expense."

Wang Chong clearly felt the destructive power within his body being suppressed and bound layer by layer by an inexplicable divine power.

The originally surging and powerful destructive energy now seemed to be bound by heavy shackles, its flow becoming difficult and almost compressed to its limit.

Initially, Wang Chong thought that Goetia would prepare some kind of devastating attack to try to eliminate him on the spot. For this reason, Wang Chong even cautiously planned to use the [Blessing of the Astral Wanderer Bard] once to activate his invincible golden body and withstand this unknown attack.

However, Wang Chong never expected that what he would receive was not a one-time energy bombardment, but a precise sealing technique targeting the source of his power—the power of ruin! This was completely unexpected.

Fortunately, the system notification rang in his mind in time, informing him that the [Purify] skill could remove this type of powerful seal.

However, the problem is that although [Purification] can instantly dismantle the sealing technique, the vast sacred energy that forms the foundation of this seal will not dissipate with it.

Like a stubborn, persistent carbuncle, they remained within him, continuously suppressing his destructive power.

Furthermore, as long as their power can still suppress the power of destruction, they can automatically construct new seals soon after the sealing spell is broken, relying on their own divine energy!

This means that if Wang Chong wants to completely get rid of this damned seal, he must repeatedly use [Purification] while driving his suppressed destructive power to gradually erode and devour that sacred energy... This process is tedious, consumes a lot of energy, and is extremely disgusting.

The only good news is that if he can successfully absorb and convert all this pure divine energy into his own, Wang Chong's strength will double.

"Master!!"

Outside the ship, Atalanta and Euryale, who were steadily held in mid-air by the black mist platform, were only now fully aware of the dramatic changes that had taken place on the deck.

Upon witnessing Wang Chong being enveloped by the pillar of light, the two female followers instantly lost all color in their faces, their eyes filled with panic and deep worry.

Atalanta, in particular, had a resolute glint in her emerald eyes. Power surged within her as she bent her legs to prepare for a running start, determined to leap back into the perilous Agor at all costs!

"Don't come any closer!" Wang Chong's voice was like thunder, piercing through the hum of the pillar of light, carrying an undeniable command, "The power of this seal will indiscriminately corrupt anyone who enters it!"

His mind raced, and the black mist platform binding his two companions tightened instantly, forming a more stable defense. At the same time, he carried them away from the giant ship that had become a cage at an even faster speed.

"I'm fine! With their meager skills, they can't kill me!" Wang Chong's voice was filled with strong confidence as he tried to calm his companion's panic.

"Proceed according to plan! Proceed to your respective islands immediately to carry out your missions and await Chaldea's support! Make sure to deliver to them everything that has happened here, especially the information about this seal, completely!"

He gathered the last of his available black mist power and precisely instilled the command into the minds of the two men. Immediately, the two black mist platforms shot off like arrows, rapidly heading towards the distant island along their predetermined trajectories.

"Damn it! They actually got away! That traitor Atalanta, how dare she side with the destroyer of the world! We'll settle this score with her sooner or later!"

Jason watched helplessly as the two disappeared into the horizon, and in his anger, he slammed his fist hard against the ship's railing, making a dull thud.

"Atalanta's escape is no big deal! But the real key is Euryale! That goddess! Only by capturing her and offering her to the Ark of the Covenant can I gain the divine power to rule this world!"

Jason roared in frustration, his features contorted with greed and despair.

In fact, the moment Euryale was sent away, he could have easily ordered Hercules to pursue her. However, although Wang Chong was suppressed by the pillar of light, he was not completely sealed away, and his very existence was like a sword hanging over his head.

Jason's fear ultimately prevailed over his greed. He dared not risk even the slightest loss of Hercules from his side, and could only watch helplessly as the "supreme power" that rightfully belonged to him slipped through his fingers.

"Rule the world? You think you can just cower in someone else's shadow like a piece of trash?"

A chilling, piercing laugh, like a poisoned steel needle, precisely pierced Jason's eardrums and deeply penetrated his fragile pride.

"You...you prisoner, what right do you have to insult me!?" Jason, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly flew into a rage, turning sharply towards the pillar of light and roaring, "You're about to become a cripple..."

His roar abruptly stopped.

Within the pillar of light, Wang Chong's icy gaze pierced through the radiance of divine energy, like two invisible blades thrusting straight at him.

The look in his eyes contained a chilling killing intent honed through countless battles.

At that moment, Jason felt as if he were facing a god-slaying beast that dared to dethrone even the gods!

"thump!"

Jason felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head. His legs went weak, and he collapsed once again onto the damp, cold deck, his teeth chattering. Fear gripped his throat, and he could no longer utter a single word.

"Hahahaha! The clown!"

Wang Chong burst into laughter, the sound echoing amidst the hum of the beam of light, filled with utter contempt for Jason.
