Chapter 237: Chapter 236: Accompanying You to See the Meteor Shower Fall on This Earth

Blood splattered everywhere.

Accompanied by the howling wind, Wilhelmina was sent flying out of the flames and heavily slammed onto the ground. At this moment, there was almost no part of her body that was intact, as scars and seeping blood were visible everywhere. Wilhelmina was now in an extreme state of disarray; she had wrapped herself like a mummy, but even so, blood still seeped from her wounds.

“Retreat immediately!”

By now, even Tiamat’s voice, which was usually as cold as a robot’s, revealed a touch of impatience, clearly aware that this was a road leading only to death!

“I understand…”

Panting, Wilhelmina forced herself to her feet. But at this moment, she felt utterly weak, as if just standing up had drained all her strength. Yet, despite this, the enemy clearly did not intend to let her go. Almost the moment Wilhelmina stood up, the ground in front of her cracked open again, and numerous blades flew out, targeting her once more.

This couldn’t go on; she had to find a chance to counterattack!

As Wilhelmina faced the oncoming attack, she made up her mind. Throwing up her hands, countless ribbons burst forth from behind her. But this time, rather than choosing to defend as before, Wilhelmina decided to attack. The enemy’s offensive seemed endless, and passive defense would only let the enemy lead by the nose. With no other choice, she had to go all-in!

“Clang clang clang clang clang!!”

Under Wilhelmina’s control, the ribbons suddenly rolled up, transforming into drill-like weapons that met the blades and longswords head-on. The clash of metal rang out, sounding like thousands of troops battling each other, as the swords created by the ribbons clashed and collided with the blades born from the flames.

This time, the previously unstoppable onslaught of the flames was finally blocked and even started to retreat!

She succeeded!

Seeing this, Wilhelmina couldn’t help but feel a surge of relief in her heart, having for the first time halted what seemed to be an unstoppable attack. Although her situation was still dire, Wilhelmina had never chosen to give up. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would fight to the end!

But just then, suddenly, a deep voice sounded from behind Wilhelmina.

“This is the end.”

Before the words even faded, a figure shrouded in a black cloak leaped out, and without hesitation, he thrust his blade toward Wilhelmina’s back, with such ferocious momentum that he sought to end her life with a single strike!

“Now!”

But what Sabrac had not expected was that, just as he leaped forward, Wilhelmina, who seemed barely able to hold on, suddenly turned and swung her hand at him. Then, a ribbon, like a venomous snake hidden in the shadows, shot up from the ground and tightly wound around his arm.

“What is this…?”

Surprised by Wilhelmina’s sudden counterattack, Sabrac was somewhat taken aback, but Wilhelmina certainly didn’t give him time to react. Raising her right hand, she quickly formed several ribbons into a sharp blade and swiftly slashed at Sabrac’s body.

This was a strike driven by desperation!

Wilhelmina was certain that if this blow landed, even Sabrac would be seriously injured—she held no illusions of killing him, as this King of the Crimson Realm was too bizarre; ordinary people couldn’t possibly kill him. At this moment, Wilhelmina only hoped to inflict a heavy wound on him and then take the chance to escape.

However, to Wilhelmina’s surprise, Sabrac merely halted in his tracks, glanced at his entangled arm, and then, without the slightest hesitation, raised his other hand. Sword in hand, he severed his right arm at the elbow!

What kind of move was this?

Seeing this, Wilhelmina was also stunned. She had fought Sabrac several times, and this was the first time she’d seen him resort to self-mutilation! What was he intending to do?

But soon, she no longer needed to ponder this question.

For as Sabrac cut off his own right hand, his severed hand suddenly burst into a blinding light, like an “Invincible Rocket Fist,” shooting out from where it had been cut. Gripping the longsword, the amputated limb hurtled towards Wilhelmina!

“What?”

Seeing this, Wilhelmina was taken by surprise, having not anticipated that Sabrac had this trick up his sleeve. But at that moment, when she tried to dodge, it was already too late. The dazzling, sharp, and cold-gleaming longsword sped before her and pierced straight into her chest without faltering.

“Gurk.”

In the next moment, Wilhelmina felt a chill in her chest, and then her world started to blur, darkness began to rise, engulfing her vision.

How could this have happened?

Intense pain surged from her chest as Wilhelmina’s eyes widened in shock, her face etched with reluctance. As a Fire Mist Warrior, she had contemplated death, even the possibility of dying on the battlefield against the Followers of the Crimson Realm. But why now? Why did things turn out this way?

Wilhelmina wanted to do something, but now she was powerless, the strike not only piercing her heart but also severing her lifeline. Her Power of Existence began to dissipate, and she could distinctly feel the contract she had with the Demon King of the Crimson Realm for many years starting to detach.

No, it shouldn’t be like this! There are still things I haven’t done. Not now, at least let me see that child one more time…

Unfortunately, no one could hear Wilhelmina’s inner cry.

Then, Sabrac’s voice emerged once again by her ear.

“Farewell, ‘Ten Thousand Skilled Hands’.”

A dazzling silver light tore through the darkness.

“Ah, Mr. Fang Zheng, look, a meteor!”

Standing beside the campfire, Nanoka called out excitedly as she watched the meteor streak across the sky. With her call, more meteors crossed the horizon, falling like rain across the heavens, leaving only trails of silver in their wake.

Upon hearing her shout, Fang Zheng smiled gently. Then he glanced at Tilia leaning against him and raised his canned beer.

“Make a wish, it might just come true, you know?”

“Okay, I’ll make a wish right now. Sanya, what should we wish for?”

“Full gold achievement unlocked?”

“That’s the one!”

Gazing at the night sky, and the girl with her hands together in front of her chest making a wish, Fang Zheng took a sip of his beer, then he looked up at the starry sky again.

“To watch the meteor shower fall on this Earth with you…”

“—————!!”

As Fang Zheng hummed, suddenly, the starry sky before everyone began to distort. Then, out of nowhere, a pitch-black shadow surfaced, enveloping Fang Zheng and the others. It was an island suspended in the sky; from its silhouette, one could see tall towers and castles.

“Mr. Fang Zheng, what is this…?”

Facing the fortress that had materialized out of nowhere, Nanoka grew nervous, while Fang Zheng yawned, casually tossing the beer can into the nearby trash and standing up. His choice to camp here wasn’t a whim; as a Prophet Mage, he had many ways to foresee the future to a certain extent.

Of course, this foresight was not as clear and precise as “Future Sight,” but more like the exclamation marks that appear in many computer games for “random events.” Players knew where to go to trigger a certain event, but whether the outcome was good or bad, only the heavens knew. Fang Zheng’s Prophecy Spell essentially amounted to knowing where “trigger events” might occur.

“Ding-ding!”

Just then, along with a crisp sound, the originally pitch-black night sky was suddenly enveloped by an Azure hue. Following that, Fang Zheng, Tilia, and Nanoka saw a petite figure descending from the heavens.

It was a young girl dressed in a white robe and a large hat, holding a Golden Scepter as if she were a Shrine Maiden serving a deity. Seeing the girl, Tilia’s expression darkened subtly, and she moved closer to Fang Zheng’s side without reaching out to hold his arm as before.

Nanoka’s eyes widened with curiosity at the sight of the white-robed girl descending from the sky, clearly having no recollection of this uninvited guest. On the other hand, Sanya, housed within her bracelet, showed signs of surprise and unease.

“The Seat, the Seat of Apex…”

While the others watched, the girl in the white robe slowly landed on the ground. Then she approached Fang Zheng and respectfully knelt before him.

“Alliance Hierarch… at last, I’ve found you…”

At the same time, the system notification Fang Zheng had been waiting for rang in his ear.

The second condition for unsealing the Soulstone, completed.
