I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

After the top-ranking gods of the royal court intervened and assisted the Divine Punishment Army in their retreat, Anno immediately arranged for shadows to go to the forbidden area to provide support.

When the shadow reappeared on the battlefield, Alec had already been banished by So.

Veranika used the Mirror World to trap a Time Apostle.

After removing the two spacetime apostles who were initially killed, only four of the eight spacetime apostles who came to the forbidden area to carry out the mission remain!

Fura was also a spy.

Right now, the brave York is fighting against Roger.

Leona has restrained a Time Apostle.

Pamela and several summoned creatures are dealing with Fura, Yvette, and Fork Woman.

As for the gods on the side of the Time-Space Apostles, they engaged in a fierce battle with the Summoning Squadron that had arrived with Leona using the spatial portal.

The Fork Woman's blessing was not restored after Alec was banished, so theoretically Alec is still alive.

Furthermore, even if Alexander dies, [Plunder] will not return the blessing to the original protector.

Being plundered means losing something, unless you find the [Origin] to restore it.

But Tifa clearly cannot restore the enemy.

"I'll kill you first!"

After seeing the Fork Woman not far away through the shadow that had swapped positions with the summoned creature, she instantly rushed towards her.

The woman's face beneath the mask was deathly pale.

She and the circle man were originally invincible when they teamed up, but now she is nothing more than an ant in front of the second-generation shadow.

They were completely powerless to resist.

"Retreat immediately!"

Yvette used [Eternity] to seal the Fork Woman, thus protecting her.

The moment Yvette saw the shadow, she knew that she was now completely at a disadvantage.

More than half of the Time-Space Apostles have been lost, and there is a high probability that one of them was a spy.

Although the spy's target area has been narrowed, it's useless now if they can't evacuate.

If the Time-Space Apostles are determined to leave, it's practically impossible to stop them.

Even if Anno himself came, he couldn't stop her.

But there is still a group of Divine Punishment Army.

If these people are not brought back, the Time Apostles will certainly be antagonized by the Court of Gods.

Roger gritted his teeth, glaring at the ordinary-looking Blessed One before him, and roared, "So close! So close! You're lucky to be alive!"

"Pfft~!"

York coughed up a mouthful of blood, but his battered body remained in a fighting stance.

Such a severe injury, if not treated in time, may leave a lifelong hidden injury.

York was like an unkillable cockroach; when he saw Roger retreating, he actually chased after him.

Leona created a solid cube to trap herself, so that even if she was hit by [Time Stop], she would not be killed by the Time Apostle in her 'absolute defense' stance.

Outside the cube, there are rows of magic crystal cannons, which are used as a means of attack.

Neither side can do anything about the other.

Upon hearing Yvette's command, Leona's opponent also abandoned Leona, instantly creating numerous spacetime clones. A small portion of these clones were used to block the shadows, while the majority attacked the summoned creatures fighting against the Divine Punishment Army.

The Time-Space Apostle needs to give the Divine Punishment Army time to truly retreat.

"Trying to run away? You have to leave something behind."

After casually slaying several spacetime clones, the shadow appeared in his palm and tossed it into the air.

Thunderclouds rolled, and the thunder elemental spirits within the forbidden area seemed to have received some kind of command, quickly rushing towards this direction.

Knowing that the Time-Space Apostles were difficult to kill, Shadow simply rushed towards the direction of the Divine Punishment Army.

To improve kill efficiency, Shadow decisively activated [Secondary Berserk].

The powerful attack of the soul instantly crushed a large number of the Divine Punishment Army.

Yvette remained completely unfazed by what she saw.

It would be better for the Time Apostles if the Shadow killed all the Divine Punishment Army.

Without any burdens, they could leave whenever they wanted.

On the contrary, the situation of these divine punishment soldiers or time-space apostles is more dangerous.

After all, there's still Pamela.

"My lord, why don't we just ignore those Divine Punishment Army soldiers?"

The Fork Woman, released from [Eternity] by Yvette, said with some fear, "The second generation is too powerful. Even if we stay here, we can't save those gods!"

"This isn't a question of whether they can be saved, it's a question of attitude."

Yvette shook her head.

When the shadow of the second generation reappeared on the battlefield, she thought of the war in World City, and that Rudolf had likely failed again.

The Divine Punishment Army may suffer heavy losses in the feint attack, and Rudolf will surely be condemned by the royal court.

If, at this time, an incident also occurs on their side where someone abandons the Divine Punishment Army and flees alone, then the position of the Time-Space Apostles in the Royal Court will be extremely awkward.

From now on, it will be virtually impossible for Rudolf to use the royal court for anything.

"Sigh~!"

Seeing that Yvette remained unmoved, Fork Woman could only watch helplessly.

With her current strength, if she dares to leave Yvette's side, she will immediately die on the battlefield.

"I don't know when my condition will recover." At this moment, the Fork Woman was unaware that her blessing had been permanently stolen. She still thought that as long as she left the battlefield and waited for a while, the [Unclaimed Throne] would return.

......

"I thought the journey to the forbidden area would be fraught with danger, but I didn't expect to encounter so few powerful and troublesome thunderous beasts along the way."

Hicks looked at the storage ring on her finger, her heart filled with joy.

It contains the Ash Thunderflowers she collected from the forbidden area.

Moreover, she made an unexpected discovery within the forbidden area.

Hicks looked at the dragon beneath his feet and asked, "Tiamat, have you been trapped in this forbidden area all along?"

The giant red dragon rolled its eyes upwards and replied, "It's been almost ten years. I couldn't defeat the guardian beast of the Ash Lightning Flower, so I've been hiding in the safe zone you discovered."

"If it weren't for that place, I might have died long ago."

Hicks nodded.

The Thunder Beast that guards the Ashes of Lightning is a high-level god, and since it is located in a forbidden area, it is rumored to be invincible.

Her original plan was simply to find a way to secretly steal an Ash Lightning Flower, but she didn't expect to be discovered by the Guardian.

Hicks initially thought he was doomed, but after the fight began, he discovered that the latter's strength was not as great as rumored—in fact, most of the Guardian's power was affected by the [Spirit Dispatch Law] and was diverted to support the battlefield, leaving only a small portion of its power behind.

But to her surprise, there was a small space beneath that huge, empty valley, where a red dragon of mid-level god-like status was hiding.

This place is unaffected by the Thunder Beast, but it also cannot be used to teleport away from the forbidden area.

This area is referred to as the safe zone by the red dragon Tiamat.

Upon discovering Hicks' arrival, Tiamat realized this was her chance to escape.

So the two joined forces, killed the guardian who had lost most of his power, took the Thunderflower, and left the valley.

"I never imagined that such a big change would happen in just ten years."

Tiamat sighed.

After ten years of arduous cultivation, her strength had actually broken through to the level of a high god after killing the guardian.

Tiamat's cultivation method mainly focused on the physical body. She became a high god not by comprehending the four laws, but simply by breaking through the limitations of her physical body to reach the level of a high god.

But who could have imagined that the world's current situation would turn into a war between the divine royal court and the world city of Angomulos?

Even a high-ranking god like her might not be able to save her life in a large-scale war.

"Wait a moment!"

Tiamat suddenly stopped advancing, flapping her wings and hovering in mid-air. She turned her head to the side and said, "Battle fluctuations, extremely powerful battle fluctuations!"
