Deep Sea Hunter, but Deep Sea Titan

"Oh dear, what's that Caucasus doing here?"

Amiya's Originium Arts, which allowed her to read memories, caught the attention of Black Serpent.

"And the brass ghost..."

"It seems you are more agile than your physique suggests."

A terrifying ball of flame, driven by Talulah, roared and swept toward Amiya.

This disgusting black snake actually attacked the form presented by the brass diving suit!

This was the first time Lotin had been offended like this, and he vowed not to let the Black Serpent disappear or die so easily, even though the Black Serpent's style of dress was the only thing he had ever acknowledged about this "evil god".

Now, he even finds Kosiché's fashion sense repulsive.

The brass hatch spun, deflecting the flames that could easily melt modern armor; the shield provided by [Titan's Wrath] was being rapidly depleted.

Lotin had to admit that the temperature was terrifying, and as a spellcaster, Talulah was far more dangerous than Mandra; the red dragon was a spear sharp enough to be reckoned with.

"Don't even think about touching her!"

Chen Huijie had heard about the strength of the Brass Ghost, but she still warned Talulah.

“Huijie, I am very disappointed. Not only did you protect those two executioners who slaughtered the infected, but you also turned against your sister.”

"I'm really disappointed."

Kosiché's performance may have seemed flawless to outsiders, but to the other three people present, it was a clumsy act.

One is Amiya, who has just glimpsed Talulah's memories.

One is Talulah's younger sister, who is related to her by blood.

One is an otherworldly visitor who knows the "plot".

Black Snake's performance can only be described as that of a clown.

“She is no longer the little girl who was abducted from Longmen 20 years ago.”

"She is the heir to the Duke of Kosiché."

Chen Huijie had no intention of giving up on Chixiao, even though the person in front of her was her real sister.

“She is not just Koschei’s ‘successor,’ Koschei has taken over her mind.”

“I’ll expose his disguise.”

Amiya saw the truth and made a choice: a warrior was corrupted into a tyrant, which filled Amiya with immense resentment.

The brass ghost raised the anchor; the true traitor was hiding inside the red dragon's body.

From Kosich's perspective, their ability to reach this point could only mean that Bozokasti had been defeated.

"Even for you, Brass Ghost, killing that Wendigo must have taken a lot of your effort."

"Passing over his sharp halberd will surely leave you exhausted, both physically and mentally."

Koschl's guess was both right and wrong. Fighting Bozokasti did deplete Lotin's mana, but he had replenished it during his spare time by using Laurentina's Originium Arts.

"Tell me, what kind of death did he accept? A great warrior. I want to know his fate."

Kosichrie tried his best to manipulate Talulah's face, making her appear respectful and regretful, but the sarcasm in his words could not be concealed.

"Black Snake, your long period of dormancy has blinded you."

"You can't even tell if there are any scratches on my wetsuit."

“I have defeated Bozokasti, but he is still alive. He did not leave any permanent scars on me, yet you still believe he can deplete my power?”

The sudden hammering of the giant anchor gave Amiya and Chen Huijie no chance to act, and the giant anchor was swung down.

The combined forces of [Heart Steel] and [Deep Sea Titan] converged within it, and Lotin's first strike was always the most lethal. The red dragon raised its sword to block, but the force transmitted through it tore the dress apart, and the sash of the Reunion leader turned into fragments.

Even Draco's body couldn't truly withstand the first hammer blow from the Brass Giant at the start of the battle.

But this was clearly not enough to immediately render the Red Dragon powerless. Her body was not as tough as Borocasti's, but it was still not fragile.

Kosiché confirmed a despairing fact: Bozocasti's obstruction had not truly weakened the bronze giant's power; his massive anchor remained deadly.

Amiya was even able to fire the black light bullets she had gathered in her hand.

The black magic, drawing upon memories rather than consciousness, was not a one-way process of dissemination but a two-way process of sowing and reaping. This reminded Koschke, who had lived for countless years, of a certain existence.

The Demon King, the Demon King of Sarkaz. This Originium Arts belongs only to the "Demon King" of Sarkaz.

He found it laughable; he couldn't comprehend just how insane the Sarkaz of Kazdel must have been to choose a Caster as their "Demon King."

"Where are your deputy? Where are the kings and subjects of your court?"

"Ah, I see."

The Black Serpent, having regained its composure, erupted in mockery. For the Black Serpent, an immortal being, to allow a Caster to become the Demon Lord of the Sarkaz was utterly impossible.

“You can’t, you young, fake demon lord. You can’t do it. You can’t control them and their court. You’re not a real demon lord. You’re not even a Sarkaz. You’re just a Katas.”

"The bronze ghost beside you is the best proof. The last time the Sarkaz gathered the offerings for him, he didn't look like this at all!"

The flames collided with the anchor that churned the tides, and Lotin swung the anchor again. The flames injured Lotin, but also severed the tendons in the red dragon's arm.

"The clown's show should end."

"If I can extinguish a backfire in Tara, I can extinguish your flames here too."

The leader of Deeppool was also a red dragon, a member of Talulah's clan. Deeppool's plans in Hillshire ended in complete failure, the same flame ignited by Drak, which he had already extinguished once.

Lotin continued to press her advantage. In the original storyline, Talulah mentioned that "in Chernobog, Bodrokast is the only one who can kill her."

Bozokasti was a formidable enemy who could rival Lotin, but he has already been defeated by Lotin.

"Black Serpent, using the body of a red dragon to face me is your biggest mistake."

"Before the boundless ocean, your proud flames are but sparks."

Chapter Sixty-Three: Weaving a Cage

"Mr. Nautilus, what exactly did Kosiché mean by that?"

Amiya confirmed that she hadn't misheard; Kosichek had just said that the "Bronze Ghost" had shared his power with the Sarkaz because they had collected enough tribute.

He said the Brass Ghost had another form, neither a Brass Giant nor a colossus of gold and silver, and from his tone it seemed that only an offering led by the Demon King could transform Nautilus into the form Kosichrie had seen.

"Don't believe his delirium."

The fact that the toothpaste-squeezing system didn't respond to Koschei's words suggests that there was very little real information in his words, but this likely corresponds to historical information from one of his skins.

They are not afraid to rule out the possibility that he is misleading Amiya with false information.

"Demon King, you don't even know the true face of the Brass Ghost, so why do you still trust his power?"

Kosichrie began to tell lies that were meant to seduce Amiya.

"This time, Rhodes Island collected all the tributes first, it's that simple."

Lotin never concealed his motives, which ironically allowed Amiya to trust him.

"that's enough."

Amiya nodded, ignoring Kosiché's incessant chatter.

If Amiya didn't need to distract herself from replicating the power of the Crimson Sky as in the original story, and didn't have to face Koschei threatening suicide with Talulah's body, would she have a chance to capture Koschei who was trying to escape?

After all, Lotin didn't know what other tricks Koschei had up his sleeve. If Koschei's backup Originium Arts were activated and his consciousness transferred into that female university teacher's body, then Lotin would really have a lot to deal with.

Even with the most conservative estimate, Kosicé could not have had only three backup plans.

He had pre-arranged Originium Arts in different corners of Ursus that could transfer his consciousness.

All three could sense that Koschei, who was inside Talulah's body, was afraid. That's why he abandoned his previous reserve and instead chose to launch a personal attack on Amiya.

Chen Huijie threw the oxygen supply device out. Whether fighting in the oxygen-deficient environment after a fire or carrying a time bomb, one always has to face one of these challenges. Now, it has been destroyed by the aftershocks of the high temperature.

Lotin, on the other hand, was not affected by the lack of oxygen from the beginning. The diving suit, which became part of the template, still retained its basic function as a diving suit - to provide oxygen to the diver.

Kosiché planned to burn off the surrounding oxygen with a continuously burning flame, not for too long, just enough to suffocate Chen Huijie and Amiya.

"Little rabbit, I'll deal with the red dragon. Use all your Originium Arts to capture that cunning black serpent!"

This is another reason why Lotin still wants Amiya to participate in this battle: the legacy left by the Sarkaz Demon King Theresia makes it theoretically possible for her Originium Arts to prevent Koschl's consciousness from being transferred.

This young alien demon lord possesses the legacy of the Tower of Babel, the predecessor of Rhodes Island, from its collapse.

At that time, the Demon King Theresia handed over the authority of the Sarkaz Demon King to Amiya.

The giant anchor roared away again, and this time, the red dragon did not stiffen at all due to the pain after parrying.

Koschl's consciousness relinquished its sensation of pain from Talulah's body; now, he manipulated the red dragon's body, transforming into a monster incapable of feeling pain.

"You are still searching for Talulah's consciousness, trying to convince yourself that there is a being called Koschei who is controlling her actions."

“Emotions and memories are not impossible to fake; perhaps Koschke never existed in the first place.”

"It's just a fantasy I made up to convince myself."

Kosichek was still trying to get Amiya to think according to his wishes, which meant that in his mind, the Originium Arts passed down by the Sarkaz Demon King were enough to pose a threat to him.

Draco reached for the longsword, his fingers sliding down the blade, blood flowing throughout the sword.

She laughed. Chen wanted to speak, but the temperature around her lips suddenly and strangely increased, as if heat was seeping into her vocal organs.

Amiya was also silenced at this moment. She could only warn Chen Huijie with gestures. This was an Originium Arts technique that used scorching air to seal her and Chen Huijie's words.

Prolonged exposure to the scorching air caused Lotin immense pain. Although his blood loss was slow, the physical torment persisted. The heat penetrated the brass wetsuit, and even the thermostat inside the suit couldn't withstand it.

Compared to diving suits, there is something else with even stronger heat insulation properties.

The brass rust gradually faded, and pure white synthetic fibers climbed onto Loting's body.

This is a form that the black snake has never been observed before.

Of course, he didn't know that no matter how long the black snake's lifespan was, it was impossible for it to have seen the creations of the previous civilization.

[Spacesuit]. Lotin was also surprised that he had discovered the wonderful use of this skin.

Red Dragon is adept at using Originium Arts to transfer heat, but the basic physics panel of the [Spacesuit] has achieved the ability to maintain a constant temperature for activities in outer space.

If Koschei tries to generate enough heat to penetrate the spacesuit, he'll be the first one to be roasted.

Luo Ting could face the scorching air around him, but Chen Huijie and Amiya could not.

"What you are trying to save are only the infected, these cramped and abandoned people. You have not seen me. What I want to save is all living beings on this earth."

"I love everyone who lives on this land of Ursus."

Even now, Kosichrie still fantasizes about relying on a war that should never have happened to make Ursus rise again. In his eyes, only war can make Ursus and its people grow, and only war can stop Ursus's current decay and internal strife.

"If that emperor had reigned a little longer, his benevolence would have extended to all those infected."

He missed the previous emperor, the previous emperor of Ursus, who had no desires, yet led Ursus to victory after victory. He believed that under that emperor's leadership, the infected and the uninfected could also stand united against a common enemy.

“Give them a quarter of theirs, and Ursus will mercifully regard them as harmless livestock.”

Kosiché's contradictory statements have shown that he has completely turned red and is no longer hiding his true colors.

This is why he meticulously planned to turn the Reunion Movement into the catalyst for the war between Yan and Ursus. A bizarre and obsessive conspiracy of betrayal.

Loting had never seen such a shameless person.

"I am the embodiment of Ursus, and you cannot defeat me."

His clever words and sophistry only prove that he has reached a dead end. It's as if he truly became a villain for the sake of the people of Ursus.

He was never qualified to call himself the incarnation of Ursus.

“You are indeed the ruler of the Sarkaz... an enemy of humanity.”

Kosichrie sensed that Amiya's Originium Arts were like dark tentacles, squeezing and searching for his consciousness.

She was the Sarkaz Demon Lord. Kosicheal acknowledged this even more. The Sarkaz Demon Lord who enslaved the land stood before him, accusing him of being an executioner and a schemer.

"And what about you, Ghost? Do these Oripathic outcasts remind you of your tragic past?"

Loting really didn't understand why this black snake could dance so precisely in his minefield.

"I didn't come here to save the infected, Koschche, you've got a premise wrong."

"I want to punish you forever, simply because you are a traitor I despise."
