Ancient Egypt, Underground Palace of the Great Pyramid of Giza.
A man with a snake crown on his head was sitting quietly on a stone bed with his eyes closed. He was cultivating in silence. His naked upper body was covered with all kinds of ancient Egyptian symbols. No one knew that the symbols on his body were actually a method to communicate with the Egyptian gods.
A pitch-black gemstone that looked like an eye hung on the man’s neck. At this moment, it suddenly shook, as if it was trembling in excitement.
The man opened his eyes, revealing only the whites of his eyes. He had no pupils! He used his right hand to soothe the gemstone on his chest.
“Eye of Horus, as expected, you also felt it.”
This eye-shaped gemstone looked like a black hole. It felt like anyone who looked at it would be sucked in. The surface of the gemstone was emitting an intense aura that made it difficult for anyone to approach it.
The Eye of Horus was trembling faster and faster.
“There’s no need for us to be anxious. The master of the Divine Sword in the Stone will not remain silent forever. If he is a true monarch, I believe that he will appear before us in the near future. The most important thing now is to not forget our mission.”
Although the man said this, his entire body was trembling.
He forcefully suppressed his monstrous battle intent.
After saying that, he closed his eyes again.
He knew that the Eye of Horus understood what he meant.
As expected, the Eye of Horus stopped trembling.
The two were looking forward to meeting this new monarch in the future.
Meanwhile, in a deep uncharted area of the ocean lied the city of Atlantis.
The people who were working in the outskirts of the city suddenly noticed that there were huge waves dozens of meters high on the surface of the sea. Among the huge waves, there was a faint silhouette of a huge tentacle. It was an incomparably huge octopus.
On top of the octopus’s head, there was something shining with sacred golden light.
The residents of Atlantis screamed. They recognized that it was the ruler of the oceans’ holy relic that their people had protected for generations! It was a divine artifact that was passed down in ancient legends. One that could command the sea — the Trident!
At the same time, in South America, Babylon, Ancient Greece, northern Europe, Shangri-la…
The holy relics from legends or ancient civilizations were seemingly not wanting to back down. They appeared all over the world, once again impressing themselves in the eyes of the world.
…
“You will be the only monarch of this world. You will descend to the Earth once again. Wherever your eyes reach, there will be the monarch’s domain. As the monarch of the fairies and humans, you will lead the world into a new era!
“Under your throne is the earth, and beside your feet is the sky. No one in this world is nobler than you, no one is more glorious than you. You are the monarch who rules over this world. Go, let this rotten world see the true meaning of fate!”
This was the blessing from the sword spirit of the Divine Sword in the Stone. It was also the fate that every master had to meet. However, what surprised the Divine Sword in the Stone was that she could not see through the person in front of her at all. The Mirror of Fate was a blur.
Hearing the sound of the Sword Spirit’s blessing, Robert also woke up.
[ Ding! Congratulations to the user for awakening the Sword of the Fairies bloodline. Current bloodline awakening completion rate is 10% ]
Then, he heard the system’s mechanical notification sound.
Robert once again felt the real touch of reality with his feet and realized that everything was just an illusion. He smiled. It seemed that he had succeeded!
“System, did I experience an illusion just now?”
[ It was not an illusion. The user was brought into the sword spirit domain by the sword spirit of the Divine Sword in the Stone. Moreover, the user’s soul has completely fused with the sword spirit of the Divine Sword in the Stone! ]
“It must have been a long time, right?”
[ Time elapsed was less than 40 seconds. ]
Robert quickly accepted this fact and was about to ask the system for more information.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
A series of explosions rang out throughout the holy city of Rome. It sounded like they had exploded at the same time. Robert quickly covered his ears. The explosions were so loud that they nearly pierced his eardrums.
On the streets of the holy city of Rome, a bird’s eye view would show that the entire city was covered in a thick layer of smoke. Within just a few minutes, more than a dozen locations had been attacked!
At this time, Robert heard a loud sound coming from the back of the church. Apparently, there had been an explosion.
The holy city had never been attacked so severely. The streets were in a mess. Everyone was running for their lives.
The place where the explosions happened was in chaos. Buildings had already collapsed. Under a piece of the roof that was now on the ground, a red liquid started to pour out.
Based on the density of the population in the holy city, an explosion like this could affect at least hundreds of people or even more.
“Mom, wake up! Didn’t you promise to take me to find dad tonight?”
A little girl who was only four or five years old knelt beside a long-haired woman in a dress and kept crying. However, no matter how hard she screamed, her mother could not wake up.
“Save me! Someone save me! I don’t want to die here!”
An old man whose head was covered in blood was pressed under a collapsed building. His lower body was already badly mutilated, but his strong desire to survive gave him enough strength to cry out for help.
Similar scenes were playing out everywhere in the holy city of Rome.
The knights of the church who were responsible for the rescue quickly rushed over and immediately started to rescue the trapped residents.
The priests and nuns in the church started to cast light healing spells on the injured people.
Although the church had already reacted quickly when the entire city was attacked, there were still many people who died due to the severity of their injuries.
“How could this be?!”
Robert stood on the street and looked at the tragic scene in front of him. He gritted his teeth. Some people were born human, but they were nothing more than animalistic brutes within. Whether it was terrorists or cultists, they should all go to hell!
Although Robert wanted to personally send those cultists to be tortured in the depths of hell, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Thinking back to the explosions, there seemed to be only around a dozen explosions.
Something was wrong!
Robert clearly saw tens of thousands of cultists in the area. If their goal was to attack the holy city of Rome and destroy the peace that the church had always maintained, then there was no need to send tens of thousands of cultists just to set up these explosions!
Robert felt that he had discovered something suspicious about the cultists’ actions.
He thought about it briefly.
“That’s right.
“These explosions were actually just a diversion!”
Thinking about it, the true purpose of the cultists was much simpler. They had created many explosions in the city to distract the church, making it impossible for them to consolidate their strength. They had to send their men to rescue the injured.
These explosions were just a prequel to the cultists’ real plan!
