All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home
Chapter 18 Golden Light Splits the City
The footsteps grew more frequent in the depths of the dark tunnel, and roars surged in like a tide.
The ground trembled more and more violently, and the faint glow of the fluorescent moss flickered on and off.
The surrounding shadows were stretched even more eerily, and the hero team instantly went into battle mode.
Lia drew her longbow taut, her azure eyes fixed on the depths of darkness, pale green energy gathering at the tip of the arrow.
Doron gripped the giant axe tightly with both hands, the clanking of his armor producing a dull thud, his muscles taut.
He was ready for a head-on charge, exuding an aura of fearlessness.
The young mage held his staff horizontally in front of his chest, and the blue gemstone shone brightly.
Several small ice shards hovered in front of him, ready to launch a deadly attack at any moment.
The nun stood at the back of the group, her hands tightly gripping the cross, exuding an aura of holiness.
A faint protective aura enveloped everyone, providing a solid shield for their teammates.
The middle-aged knight stood at the forefront, his silver armor gleaming with a cold light.
His knight's sword was slightly drawn from its sheath, and his sharp gaze pierced through the darkness, locking onto the source of the sound.
Wei Yu's remnant soul clung to the core of the divine spear, causing his nerves to tense up.
The power of his soul quietly spread out, carefully probing the movements in the darkness.
He could sense that there were a great many of them, and their auras were chaotic and violent.
It contained a powerful pressure far exceeding that of ordinary monsters.
The chilling aura emanating from it carried a strong sense of gluttony, clearly indicating that it was a demon leader whose strength should not be underestimated.
"Hehehe..." A strange and arrogant laugh came from the darkness.
Accompanied by heavy footsteps, a massive figure slowly emerged.
The figure was extremely bulky, about two zhang tall, and covered in dark purple scales.
His skin was wrinkled and sagging, like piled-up fat, and his limbs were thick as pillars.
Its palms were large, with sharp black claws at the tips of its fingers, and dried blood and bits of flesh remained under its nails.
Its head resembled an enlarged wild boar's head, with protruding tusks and bloodshot eyes.
Greed and violence surged in his eyes, and his head was bald except for a few wisps of messy black hair at the back.
A necklace of monster skulls hung around his neck, making a dull clanging sound with every step he took.
An ominous aura swept over them, sending chills down their spines.
"Glutton!" The middle-aged knight's eyes narrowed, and he shouted in a deep voice.
His tone was full of vigilance, and he recognized the monster at a glance.
Sarah Uchi, one of the four generals under the Demon King.
He was known for his insatiable gluttony and cruelty, leaving ruins in his wake.
Whether it is living beings or objects, they will be devoured by him without leaving a trace.
Sarahoj grinned, revealing sharp fangs, and let out a wild laugh.
"Hahaha! I didn't expect it to be the Hero Squad! Saves me the trouble of searching everywhere!"
His gaze swept over the five men, his crimson eyes filled with greed, as if he were sizing up prey.
"Rumor has it that you have repeatedly thwarted the Demon King's army's plans and even dared to resist His Highness the Demon King's rule. You certainly have some guts."
Before she finished speaking, Sarah Uchi slowly raised her right hand and waved it towards the depths of darkness.
"Charge! Tear them to pieces and bring them back to the castle for my snacks!"
His voice was hoarse and violent, carrying an unquestionable command.
A deafening roar suddenly erupted from the darkness, and countless demons surged forth like a tidal wave.
Besides the fleeing crypt goblins, there were also crypt trolls, shadow bats, and giant worms.
There were hundreds of different kinds of monsters, a dark mass that blocked the narrow passage.
The stench was overwhelming and nauseating.
Lia's eyes sharpened, and she released the bowstring without hesitation.
The green arrow, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, instantly pierced the head of the goblin at the front.
"Attack!" she shouted, nimbly retreating backward.
At the same time, they quickly nocked and fired arrows, raining down on the monster horde.
Each arrow struck a vital spot with pinpoint accuracy, and the fallen monsters quickly piled up into a small mountain.
With a roar, Doron charged towards the horde of monsters, wielding his giant axe.
The axe blade, accompanied by a fierce gust of wind, cleaved savagely into the chest of a crypt troll.
The immense force cleaved the troll's body in two, splattering it with blood and entrails.
"Come on! Come and die!"
He was like a battlefield madman, rampaging through the monster horde.
With each swing of the giant axe, monsters were decapitated, and none could stop them.
The young mage silently chanted a spell and waved his staff.
The ice spikes in front of him shot towards the horde of monsters, and at the same time, a large number of ice spikes surged up from the ground.
A whole swarm of goblins was pierced by ice spikes and died instantly.
"Flame Impact!" he shouted.
The blue gem at the tip of the staff instantly turned red, and a torrent of flames erupted from it.
Flames engulfed large numbers of monsters, burning them to ashes.
The air was filled with the smell of burnt barbecue.
The nun stood at the back the whole time, constantly chanting prayers.
Holy light, like sweet rain, showered upon the team members.
Quickly repair the minor wounds they sustained in battle.
At the same time, it purifies the cold aura emanating from the demons and provides a continuous source of spiritual support.
The middle-aged knight, wielding his sword, nimbly weaved through the horde of monsters.
The sword blade was precise and sharp, each swing taking the life of a monster.
His movements were steady and skillful, avoiding attacks while finding the right opportunity to counterattack.
They quickly carved out a clearing in the monster horde.
But there were just too many monsters; as soon as one batch fell, another surged up.
The squad was gradually surrounded, and the situation became increasingly critical.
Sarah Uchi did not join the battle, hovering in mid-air with her arms crossed.
He watched the battle below with great interest, his crimson eyes full of mockery.
He is by no means a simple-minded fool.
The hero squad's ability to repeatedly escape from the Demon King's army's encirclement must be due to some special means.
After observing for a moment, he noticed something was amiss.
Each member of the team possesses a mysterious power originating from the depths of the starry sky.
Humans call it a "miracle," which is key to defeating the Demon King's army.
"Hmph, you think you can beat me with such tricks? You're too naive," Sarah Uchi sneered.
He slowly raised his hands, and dense dark energy gathered at his fingertips.
He quickly drew magic arrays in the air, his fingertips tracing the void and leaving behind streaks of black runes.
The runes intertwined, forming a huge circular magic circle.
An eerie red light flickered within the magic circle, and a dense aura of a demon king permeated the area.
The void trembled slightly under the influence of this aura.
Leah caught a glimpse of the magic circle in the air out of the corner of her eye, and her expression changed drastically.
He shouted a warning to everyone: "Watch out! That's a summoning circle! He's going to summon the other officers!"
She has an extremely keen sense of magical runes and can immediately discern the purpose of a magic circle.
This is a magic circle that can cross spatial barriers and summon companions.
Once other officers arrive, the team will be doomed.
Upon hearing the reminder, the team members' expressions turned serious.
The pace of the attack quickened involuntarily, as they wanted to eliminate the monsters as soon as possible to stop the summoning.
But Sara Uchi was prepared.
While inscribing the magic circle, they continuously activated dark energy to enhance the monster's combat power.
Make the monsters even more ferocious, keep them tightly entangled with the team, and buy yourself some time.
Sarah Ulrich smiled smugly.
The magic circle was being drawn faster and faster, and the red light became increasingly intense.
The summoning is clearly about to be completed.
He had already made up his mind that all he needed to do was summon two companions.
Even with the "miracle" power, the three working together can completely wipe out the team.
But just then, a majestic shout resounded throughout the entire underground city.
"Sarawak, you glutton! Die!"
The voice came from the middle-aged knight, who suddenly broke free from the monster's grasp.
He leaped into the air and raised his knight's sword high in the air.
In an instant, dazzling golden light burst forth from his body.
Like a second sun descending, it illuminated the dark underground city as if it were daytime.
The silver armor was enveloped in golden light, transforming into dazzling golden armor.
The knight's sword in his hand also gleamed with golden light, and the patterns on the blade were activated, flowing with mysterious runes.
A sacred and powerful force surged forth, sweeping across the entire battlefield.
The demon was enveloped in golden light and let out a shrill scream.
The body is dissolving at a rate visible to the naked eye.
The dark energy in the air was also suppressed and forced to retreat by the golden light.
The squad members all stopped attacking and looked up at the aerial knight.
His eyes were filled with astonishment and awe.
They had never seen their captain unleash such formidable power.
This power transcends the realm of "miracle," being both sacred and domineering.
Wei Yu, whose remnant soul resided within the core of the divine spear, trembled violently.
He blurted out instinctively (without a audible voice, but full of shock): "I KO! Iks! Curry Stick!"
The golden sword held high shone with dazzling light.
It also has a sacred and domineering aura, just like the curry stick in the anime!
As a time traveler, he was all too familiar with this scene.
The appearance of a real-life "Curry Stick" shocked him.
This further confirms that the middle-aged knight is definitely a time traveler.
Only time travelers could possess the power of such iconic anime scenes.
That thin membrane of world will is merely concealing his original power.
Sarah Uchi, suspended in mid-air, widened her crimson eyes instantly.
The smugness and mockery on his face were instantly replaced by astonishment and panic.
He hovered in place, his hands still in the motion of inscribing the magic circle.
My mind went blank, and countless thoughts flashed through my mind.
What are you doing? What is this all about? What did I do wrong?
He had just noticed their "miracle" qualities, and before he could even summon his companions, he unleashed a powerful attack.
Sarah Uchi became increasingly panicked and even felt somewhat aggrieved.
I'm not the Demon King! I'm just an officer!
Did you really have to unleash such a powerful move right from the start? That's so unreasonable!
I just wanted to call my companions to join the fight, not to kill you outright.
Why did you suddenly resort to such deadly tactics?
In her panic, Saraucci didn't even bother to call for her companions; saving her own life was the priority!
His hands moved swiftly, leaving a trail of afterimages at his fingertips.
The summoning circle, which was about to be completed, suddenly became disordered, with black runes and red light colliding with each other.
He exerted all his strength to activate all the dark energy and forcibly altered the patterns of the magic array.
Transform the summoning circle into a reverse teleportation circle.
"Damn it! You're ruthless!" he roared, filled with resentment and fear.
The reverse magic circle formed instantly, and a huge black vortex appeared beneath Sarah Uchi.
The powerful suction force enveloped him tightly.
He gave the air knight one last venomous look.
His body was swallowed by the vortex and instantly teleported back to the Demon King's castle.
He didn't want to take this terrifying attack head-on; as long as he was alive, he could always find a way to fight another day.
I'll find another opportunity to take revenge later.
As soon as Sarah Uchi teleported away, a cold glint flashed in the middle-aged knight's eyes.
The knight's sword, held high, suddenly slashed downwards!
"cut!"
A dazzling golden light, almost tangible, burst forth from the sword.
It transformed into a golden sword aura several meters wide, carrying a power capable of tearing apart heaven and earth.
He slashed fiercely at the horde of monsters below.
Wherever the sword energy passed, faint cracks were torn in the void.
The air howled shrilly, and the ground trembled violently, as if it were about to collapse.
The horde of demons below had no time to dodge before being swept away by the sword energy.
Screams echoed through the passageway.
All the demons turned to ashes in the golden light, leaving not a trace.
The densely packed horde of monsters was instantly wiped out.
All that remained in the passage were rubble and dust that had been affected by the sword energy.
The power of the golden sword energy did not dissipate and continued to slash downwards.
It forcefully cut into the underground city's rock layer, producing a deafening roar.
The entire underground city shook violently, and rocks kept falling from the ceiling.
The rubble fell to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.
The sword energy flowed downwards, cleaving through thick layers of rock as easily as cutting tofu.
It only slowly dissipated when it reached the bottom of the underground city.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the team members slowly stood up.
His face was filled with disbelief.
They looked up and saw that the ceiling of the underground city had been cleaved open by sword energy, leaving a huge gap.
Beyond the gap, there was a clear blue sky.
Sunlight streamed through the gap, dispelling the darkness and chill.
The warm light fell on me, bringing a sense of comfort.
All that remained on the ground was a huge ravine.
It extends from the entrance of the passage all the way down to the bottom of the gap.
The rocks on both sides of the ravine were scorched black by the sword energy, emitting a faint burnt smell.
The black and red divine spear was swept away by the airflow and landed at the edge of the ravine.
The gun trembled slightly, its surface shimmering with a mixture of golden light and black mist.
It was as if it were echoing the divine power from before.
The middle-aged knight landed slowly on the ground, and the golden light around him gradually dissipated.
His silver armor returned to normal, but his face was somewhat pale.
His breathing was slightly rapid; the powerful attack he had just used had taken a huge toll on his health.
His hand holding the knight's sword trembled slightly, and his eyes showed a hint of weariness.
Yet his gaze remained sharp, sweeping across the gap in the sky before settling on the divine spear.
A complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
Lia walked over to the middle-aged knight and looked at his pale face.
His voice was full of worry: "Captain, how are you? Are you hurt?"
Duolong put away his giant axe, scratched his head, and walked over.
His face was full of admiration: "Captain, you were amazing just now!"
"That golden greatsword attack wiped out all the monsters in one fell swoop and even cleaved open the dungeon!"
The young monk and the nun also gathered around, their eyes filled with concern and awe.
The middle-aged knight shook his head, his tone calm: "I'm fine, just overexerted."
"A short rest will do."
He paused, then turned his gaze back to the sharpshooter.
"Strange, the sword energy was extremely powerful just now, yet this spear is completely undamaged."
"This is by no means an ordinary weapon."
Wei Yu's remnant soul, inside the core of the divine spear, gazed at the sky beyond the gap.
He then looked at the middle-aged knight, his heart filled with doubt and anticipation.
The "Curry Stick" ultimate move confirms the knight's identity as a time traveler.
But that membrane of world will still exist.
Who exactly is he? Why is he trapped in this world?
What secrets does the sky beyond the gap hold?
After Sarah's escape, will the Demon King's army launch another attack?
Sunlight streamed through the gap, illuminating the ravine and the sharpshooter.
It also illuminated the complex expressions on the team members' faces.
The dungeon was cleaved open, and the monsters were eliminated.
But new questions and crises have already quietly arrived.
Like dark clouds, it hung over everyone's heads.
Seeing this, Sabella (the nun) nodded slightly, signaling everyone to calm down.
Then, with gentle steps, he walked toward the edge of the ravine.
The white nun's habit shimmered softly in the sunlight.
When she bent over, the hem of her clothes brushed lightly against the scorched black pebbles, yet not a speck of dust remained.
She stretched out her slender, steady hand and carefully grasped the handle of the musket.
It feels slightly cool to the touch, and you can vaguely feel a slight vibration coming from the gun.
A hidden, pure power quietly spread from my fingertips.
A knowing glint flashed in her eyes.
Sabella slowly raised the divine spear, its black and red shaft gleaming with a calm luster in the sunlight.
The interwoven glimmers of light on the surface are faintly visible.
She turned around to face the team members who had gathered around her.
His tone was gentle yet firm: "I think this spear must be very special."
"It possesses a gentle yet resilient power that is far beyond that of ordinary weapons."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Lia stared at the divine spear, her eyes full of inquiry.
Duolong nodded in agreement, "It's truly extraordinary. The golden sword energy was so fierce just now, yet it was unharmed!"
Allen (the young wizard) was eager to try and go forward to investigate further.
But the middle-aged knight raised his hand to signal them to stop.
