You are all my wings!

A graceful figure dressed in a magnificent long robe plummeted at high speed, but just before it hit the lava lake, it suddenly stopped, stabilized in mid-air, and then slowly rose up.

Moorlipe looked up to observe her surroundings, using her detection magic to quickly survey the area within a few hundred kilometers. Her expression then changed slightly.

Are so many powerful legendary monsters at their peak roaming around here?

Is this really the 65th floor of the underground city?

She wasn't afraid of encountering too many demons; as long as she was careful, she could always avoid them. What she feared was that the mysterious powerhouse had suppressed her instantly and then suddenly sent her here for some other purpose.

As she wandered and explored, a thought suddenly struck her.

"That kid was actually there?"

She flashed and flew towards the direction she had detected.

Midway through, the heavens and earth seemed to shake violently, and the entire lava lake surged wildly, resembling hell.

Boundless divine power poured down with a thunderous roar, filling the void.

Originally, not much divine power flowed from here, but at this moment, with the tremendous tremor of heaven and earth, boundless divine power gathered, and the entire magma zone was immediately filled with immense pressure.

Even to Mouripe’s surprise, the divine power here was even stronger than what she had felt on the lake.

What happened here?

She sped up.

……

At the same time.

Machiru got up from the scorching ground and couldn't help but rub her little bottom.

She was somewhat surprised. She didn't know what had just happened. Suddenly, she was pulled by a tremendous force, and her consciousness seemed to be clouded. She fell here uncontrollably.

Just as she was about to check on the others, she suddenly heard Iris's delighted voice:

"Lyon!"

Machiru quickly turned her head and saw Leon standing in a corner of the island in front of her, holding a dark elf with black hair and a black dress, whose clothes were tattered, and looking at her with a helpless expression.

Not far in front of him, a colossal beast, hundreds of meters tall, lay prostrate, like a mountain, yet made no sound.

Above the giant beast stood a six-winged angel who looked like a saint.

Maggie Lu immediately ran over.

"Don't come any closer, it's dangerous!"

"Lyon shouted."

He now understood what the Forest Apostle meant by asking, "Are you Leon?"

Most likely, it was Iris and her companions who entered this divine ruin in search of her, and she discovered them. From their conversation, she learned that they had come for 'Leon' and that they had a close relationship.

Originally, the forest apostles could only roam around the lakes, and even if they could find them, they couldn't pull them over.

However, with the removal of one of the restrictions, even though she was locked by the other three locks, the magic she could unleash still increased significantly, allowing her to easily capture Iris and the others.

It's clear that the forest apostles intend to take more people hostage.

This guy is so powerful and acts so meticulously; it's hard to imagine that he's a divine being.

On the other side, upon hearing Leon's shout, Iris, Magiru, Britta, Kekeqi, and Msifisu all stopped and became alert.

As you can see, apart from Machiru and Mushifisu, their strength has improved, they have advanced to the next level, and their aura has greatly increased.

However, Lyon knew that this would still be of no help to the Forest Apostle, whom Helvie had hailed as the strongest demigod.

However, he was relieved to find that neither Ophimasso nor Camille were there, so they wouldn't actually be wiped out.

The Forest Apostle smiled leisurely: "It seems these people are all your favorites. Then let them stay and be your hostages."

As soon as the words were spoken, Iris and the others shuddered and were lifted into the air as if out of control.

Even Britta, despite advancing to the sixth rank and being able to mobilize more divine authority, and unleash power comparable to an epic in a short time, was still powerless against the Forest Apostle and was passively levitated.

She was naturally unwilling to admit defeat, and gritted her teeth to activate even more of her authority.

At this moment, Leon used magic to control the spell and transmitted his voice: "This is a peak demigod, or even a divine species. Don't reveal your true strength in front of her. Save the power of your divine authority as your trump card. Leave everything to me!"

Hearing this, Britta finally gave up struggling.

After Kekeqi advanced to the true sixth rank, the enhancement of her mechanical magic allowed her to unleash a small portion of power comparable to a legendary figure. Although she could see that her opponent was formidable, she did not want to surrender easily and was about to activate the core skill of the Wanderer.

Suddenly, Leon's voice came to her ear:

"Sister, don't reveal any more details about your new magic in front of this powerful person. Stay still and don't do anything rash."

Lyon quickly sent a telepathic message to everyone, telling them to be quiet.

There's no other reason than that the difference in strength is too great, and excessive resistance would only result in unnecessary damage.

The Forest Apostle clearly noticed Leon's telepathic communication, but didn't seem to care, saying calmly:

"She's quite considerate."

As they spoke, the five women were forced to levitate and rise, about to approach the resurrected dragon eagle.

suddenly--

A magnificent holy light suddenly appeared and fell on the head of the forest apostle. The infinite pure white light engulfed her body and the hundred-meter-long dragon eagle beneath her feet.

boom!!!!!

Lyon was pushed backward by the immense shockwave generated by the Holy Light squeezing outwards, and the unparalleled force caused the surrounding magma to explode, as if the sky and earth were collapsing.

This move was none other than Moripe's epic holy magic, Divine Pillar of the Sky, hailed as the strongest offensive magic on the continent, a powerful technique capable of even injuring demigods.

Lyon, who was attacking the outer perimeter, was also hurt by the residual force of the shockwave, and kept rolling backward to use magic to dissipate the damage.

As the terrifying aftershocks slowly subsided, he looked back and saw a graceful figure dressed in a gorgeous colorful brocade flying towards him at high speed. It was indeed Moripe!

Lyon cursed inwardly. Even she had gotten herself into trouble here. No matter how strong Mouripe was, she was only about the same as Helvie, with only a slight advantage in attribute restraint.

Given Helwidow's fate, one can imagine how badly Moriarty will lose.

Sure enough, the holy light flashed, and the forest apostle was unharmed.

Only the dragon eagle beneath her feet had cracked skin and a ferocious appearance.

However, suppressed by the forest apostles, he never made a move.

Instead, the Forest Apostle's gaze turned cold as it looked at Moripe, who was flying at high speed from seven or eight kilometers away. It reached out and made a fist, then tapped downwards.

BOOM!!!

A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth.

The location where Moriper stood was irrigated by boundless divine power, forming an incomparably powerful invisible spike that struck her.

Surprisingly, however, Moorlipe's figure vanished like a phantom, leaving a trail of shockwaves that bombarded the lava, instantly annihilating tens of thousands of meters of lava in the surrounding area.

The next moment, Britta, who had been imprisoned by the forest apostle, also disappeared.

The forest apostle's expression shifted slightly, but he remained silent and reached out to grab the dome.

As she moved, a spatial passage opened up in the dome, and the figure of Moriper carrying Britta flying at high speed came into view.

The Forest Apostle flexed and extended his five fingers, giving a slight tug.

At the same time, More than ten kilometers away, Mouripet seemed to have been hit by an irresistible blow, her body suddenly jolted and she fell straight down.

However, in the instant of her fall, Britta was thrown far away, activating the divine authority within her, which transformed into a pure white light and carried her far away.

Lyon knew that move; it was a secret holy teleportation magic passed down by the Vatican, usable only by Divine Agents at the Legendary level.

It can invoke the power of authority at critical moments, transforming the proxy into holy light and instantly escaping danger.

Clearly, although Moripert was not the agent, she had mastered this magic trick and helped Britta escape successfully.

The price was that Moripert's body fell straight down, turning into a shooting star as she plummeted to the ground.

Lyon could tell at a glance that her face was ashen and her breath was weak, clearly indicating that her body had also been defeated by the Forest Apostle, and her vitality had dropped significantly.

His heart sank. Although he had anticipated that Moripert would lose, the fact that she lost so thoroughly was truly cruel.

Above the legendary level, the gap between each subsequent tier is even greater.

Fortunately, at least Britta was traded away. It seems that Moripert also realized the Forest Apostle's immense strength and knew that she had no chance of defeating it. Britta, even if she had only advanced to Legendary level, could potentially fight the Forest Apostle, so she resolutely traded her away.

Of course, it's possible that Moripert sensed what was happening here and judged that she herself wouldn't fare well in the future, so she took a risky move.

The advantage of doing so is that the forest apostles will be hesitant to kill Moripert indiscriminately.

At this moment, the Forest Apostle looked at Leon expressionlessly:

"Was the woman who was sent away a representative of the gods?"

Lyon said calmly:

"Your Excellency, although my relationship with her is not very good, if you are worried that she will attract the attention of the gods, I will find her after I leave and explain the consequences to her, so that she will not report this matter to the gods for the time being. When she was sent away, she mobilized a lot of divine authority, so her magic power must have been greatly depleted. She certainly does not have the spare power to activate the Holy Prayer spell to link with the gods now, so Your Excellency does not need to worry for the time being."

"Even if a true god were to descend, he could not do anything to me."

The Forest Apostle said calmly:

"However, we should still avoid trouble where possible. Here's what I'll do: I'll order you to go and trick her into coming back."

"Sir, my relationship with her is so-so, I might not be able to deceive her."

"You're confident you can fool even a demigod, but you're not confident you can fool a little girl?"

The forest apostle's eyes turned slightly cold.

"Your Excellency, the God's Agent holds a position even more revered than a demigod in this era. I doubt they would easily trust me. Moreover, the reason I can summon a demigod is because I can lure them with divine relics. The God's Agent has already witnessed your presence, so it will be extremely difficult to deceive them... However, Your Excellency could spare this epic friend's life. She is hesitant to act rashly, so she will likely refrain from making any rash moves."

Lyon advised:

“My life and death are now in your hands. If you die, I can't live either. I'm on your side now. You've seen it for yourself, this epic friend and that divine messenger look so alike. What do you think their relationship is?”

"Mother and daughter?"

The Forest Apostle seemed lost in thought.

“That’s right. If it were just an ordinary mother and daughter, it wouldn’t be a big deal. But look at the power in her hand. Can you tell? It’s a just power. Anyone who can wield such power would not disregard their mother’s life. Otherwise, they would surely be devoured by that power, wouldn’t they?”

This is, of course, a lie.

However, he didn't feel like he was lying; he was just listing the facts.

Faced with such a master, a peak demigod who wielded a portion of the power of choice, he did not hesitate for a moment. He immediately activated the purification mode, using only his thoughts and instinct to give an answer.

Lyon continued:

"Your Excellency, I have another request. Although I can help you bring three demigods over, the life alchemy technique needs a few capable assistants so that the scholar outside can perfect it as soon as possible."

The Forest Apostle understood Leon's meaning and frowned, saying:

"Which women do you want?"

“That’s right. They are all geniuses in their respective fields. If we take them with us to help, they can learn by analogy. In addition, with my miracle divination technique to select research methods, I think we can quickly complete the theoretical system you requested.”

Leon didn't explicitly ask for Maggie, fearing that if he did, the Forest Apostle would refuse to give it to him.

"You can only take one person with you, so choose her."

The Forest Apostle pointed to someone at random, and it turned out to be Kekeqi.

Kekeqi clearly understood the situation and immediately called out, "Brother, let Miss Iris go with you. I can wait for you to come back."

In her mind, the one who would become a demigod the fastest in the future was Iris. With Iris there, her group of people would have a chance to survive.

Iris said, "Let Maggie go; she has the strongest research ability."

She thought to herself that it was all because of her departure that the situation had become so out of control.

Not only did Lyon find himself in danger multiple times as a result, but he also volunteered to draw the enemy away last time.

If the situation improved, it would be fine, but now that the situation is so difficult, her guilt is endless.

The Forest Apostle glanced at the women:

"You have no say in this."

As soon as the words were spoken, it was as if Iris and the others had their mouths sealed shut, unable to utter a single word, their mouths agape in silence.

Then, Machiru's body was propelled by an invisible force, floated up, and flew towards Lyon.
