"Round three...begin!" Nemus's voice seemed to overlap three times.
It could be a normal human voice, a demonic voice filled with dark allure, or a mysterious and ethereal angelic pronouncement.
Rhine turned around, erasing the shock and panic that had been lingering in his heart.
"That prayer angel is not normal; its numbers are far from sufficient, and its body is also incomplete."
"They cannot be regarded as true prayer angels, and may not even be of the gold level."
With this in mind, Rhine resolutely launched the first attack.
A new flaming longsword appeared in his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, a circle appeared, from which a pair of lion's eyes emerged.
Then a lion's head burning with flames emerged from it, followed by its robust body and three pairs of wings on its back.
"Gold-level? As expected, summoners are the most difficult to deal with." Nemus sighed as he watched the Gold-level Fire Angel appear, marveling at the popularity of summoners.
Although Rhine is not a traditional summoner, he can be considered a summoner because of his skill in creating divine life.
Fighting against this type of summoner is often equivalent to fighting against several individuals of the same level.
Of course, the summoning system also has a heavy burden, so the multiplier of its skills is mostly reflected by the summoned creatures.
Rhine's actions also alerted the others, who were still in the midst of a life-or-death battle.
At this point, even if they are angels, as long as they want to survive, they must fight against Nemus and his men.
"Then I'll make you the first Golden Seed I kill."
Suddenly, the sword in his hand also blazed with dark golden flames, and intense holy attributes danced on it.
As the fire angel lunged at him, Nemus's blade flashed and disappeared.
It almost turned into a beam of white light.
Sword of Fortune: Whirlwind Swallow!
The white light sword shot out, spinning nimbly in mid-air before accurately striking the Fire Angel.
In just a few breaths, it had pierced through the fire angel several times.
After being upgraded to the Sword of Fortune version, the Whirlwind Swallow is no longer a straight spiral attack, but has become a controllable rotating flying sword.
After a few probing attacks, Nemus found the Fire Angel's structural weakness.
These elemental angels are all composed of an element within their bodies; only by severing that element can they be killed.
Otherwise, they could use the corresponding elements to replenish their bodies and repair injuries at any time.
Nemus's Sword of Fortune has a natural advantage in finding weaknesses.
Previously, we had to rely on 'good luck' to passively find weaknesses, but now we can directly observe the changing patterns of luck and then actively welcome our own 'good luck'.
As the sword flew out, Rhine immediately sensed the danger. He truly hadn't expected that the Gold-level Fire Angel would be so weak.
Although he was a gold-level expert, he was like a target in front of Nemus.
With a flap of its wings, Rhine's speed increased to the limit, while the air angels and etheric angels beside it dissipated and transformed back into a ball of light.
With a slight thought, Rhine caused the orbs of light to change once again, as if they were about to coalesce into new life forms.
However, Nems was even faster than him.
The value of 300 is only reduced when it hits the target; however, under this value, Nemus's speed will not decrease.
Previously, relying on the mechanism, several people ganged up on Naimus together, gradually restricting him, and didn't realize how terrifying this speed was.
However, at this moment, Nemus's skills were unsealed, and without the restraints on his power, the domineering power of his numbers was also revealed.
With a wave of his hand, Nemes summoned a burst of energy beneath Rhine, which then erupted with a soaring sword aura, threatening to cleave Rhine in two.
Sword of Fortune: Crossing the Dark Raven!
The aura of death rushed towards him, causing Rhine's mental energy to fluctuate wildly. In an instant, the ball of light beside him transformed into a magnificent shield standing in front of him.
Shaping Divine Spell: Sacred Item Shaping: Shield of All Heavens!
According to legend, these are tools used by the gods.
A flash of sword light appeared, leaving a white mark on the replica of the Heavenly Shield.
The next moment, Nemus was already in front of him.
The newly formed ice sword accurately struck the white mark on the Heavenly Shield.
The sword tip pierced in a split second, leaving only an arm's length between it and Rhine behind the shield.
The next moment, Rhine saw the ice sword in Nemus's hand vaporize, changing from a solid state of ice to a gaseous state.
"What?!"
Rhine's mental energy had just been unleashed, so he couldn't immediately cast spells to complete his defense.
Chapter 277 Hate
However, the next moment, Zovin appeared.
His demonized body flashed to the side, and he thrust his sword at Nemus's arm.
The numerous spatial fluctuations and changes nearly locked Naim in place.
Nemus glanced around, his eyes meeting Zovin's, and his vaporized ice sword paused slightly.
Rhine seized the opportunity, and the Shield of All Heavens in front of him suddenly exploded, the intense light obscuring everything.
When the light subsided, only Nemus remained standing there, his ice sword broken.
Rhine floated away in the distance, her mental energy quickly calming down, while the Fire Angel took the opportunity to break free from the uncontrolled Whirlwind Swallow.
He returned to Rhine's side and protected her.
Only one body, which did not appear particularly large, was falling.
Zuowen fell to the ground with a bloody hole the size of a finger on his head.
Blood flowed from the back of his head, and the boy's eyes gradually dimmed.
His outstretched hand fell limply to the ground, and he didn't even know what the last thing on his mind was.
Lillian, who was floating beside him, was also inexplicably quiet at this moment.
From the moment Nemes displayed his audacity, she knew that this extraction of the historical number was no simple matter, and that it was very likely to create a legendary species.
And Zuowen...
“Listen to me, leave Baiwei Town, go to other places to develop for more than ten years, and then come back. You will become a true hero, and your soul will be immortalized in history.”
Why...play the hero?
Lillian looked at her deceased descendant. She should have abandoned him, since he had not become a hero in the true sense of the word. But for some reason, she felt a pang of sadness.
However, Lillian then shook her head violently. These things about humans had nothing to do with her; she was just a little fairy who was still a few years away from reaching adulthood.
Lillian looked up and saw Nemus's gaze.
Those eyes, which seemed to hold the sparks of starlight, appeared devoid of emotion, as lonely and cold as the starry sky.
Beneath the inhuman, monstrous aura lies a warning—don't spread rumors.
What follows is a mysterious connection of fate.
Lillian immediately realized that if she said something inappropriate, Nemus might come looking for her through some kind of fateful connection.
Nemus doesn't have a good way to deal with fairies right now. This guy is weak, but he has an amazing ability to survive.
Once you delve into the cracks of history, it becomes very difficult to find her; it takes a great deal of effort.
Nems doesn't have the energy to do that right now, so he can only leave a constraint and a warning.
Fortunately, it is quite difficult for fairies to interact with ordinary people.
It is difficult for ordinary individuals to even see fairies.
Even if Lillian wanted to spread the message, it would be difficult for her to do so in a short time.
Lillian glanced at Nemus, said nothing, and immediately darted into the cracks of history in fright.
The material plane is too dangerous; she needs to go home!
Watching Lillian leave, Nemus paid no attention, focusing his attention on the remaining enemies.
Rhine's condition has stabilized; as a Gold-tier character, his recovery ability is very strong.
The aura emanating from the Holy Son continued to increase, and he seemed to be growing stronger and stronger.
Clearly, his awakening saintly nature is constantly increasing his strength.
Isabella was looking at him, and her aura seemed to become ethereal.
Nemus vaguely sensed the existence of the Holy Wish Ritual, and that the inevitable success of the future was still at work.
Since it's not enough for Rhine to become a Goldborn, then let's push for the growth of Nemus's enemies.
Of course, this also requires that enemies like Nems have the corresponding potential.
Then, Nems looked toward the empty space on the other side.
"Since you're already here, are you planning to leave?" As Nemus spoke, a man with golden eyes stepped out from the empty space.
He looked at Nems with a serious expression, not expecting that he had still been discovered.
“I should call you White, right?” Nems’s gaze swept over White and Rhine, as if he had found something interesting.
"I never expected to stumble at this time," Bai Te sighed helplessly.
Rhine also looked at White. After reaching the Gold level, White's various abilities improved, such as his calculation ability.
In this situation, he quickly remembered everything about White.
"So it was you. So you're Baitt." Rhine finally understood where the familiar feeling he had about the name Baitt came from.
White was the very experiment he was with back then, and also a failed Holy Son.
However, the difference is that White did not survive until Guilliman transformed them from 'tools' into people. He took an opportunity to escape and then disappeared.
As for White, he also recalled the origin of that name.
Before Rhine was sent to the lab at the Nitton family home, he had a cat named Bitt, which sounds very similar to the name Bitt.
During the experimental period, Rhine and the other experimental subjects were occasionally able to get together for testing, and they could talk briefly during the limited time they had.
Rhein then told this story.
He said he didn't consider Byte to be a pet or a toy, but rather his companion. Unfortunately, Byte was killed by his family members as soon as he was brought to the family.
At that time, it seemed that Bai Te was thinking about something nearby.
“Yes, it’s a pity that you’ve now become a lackey of the church.” White looked at Rhine with obvious hatred in his eyes.
They were all experimental subjects with the church's tacit approval, and they all suffered inhuman torture in the process, losing their right to be human afterward.
Why? When he finally escaped and was about to go back to rescue Rhine and the others, he discovered that they had been pardoned by Guilliman, regained their human status, and began to serve the church.
From that moment on, White would never forgive Rhine and the others.
However, he was clearly saying one thing and meaning another.
With just a few words and the connection between them, Nemes roughly understood the relationship between them.
White had been well hidden in the spatial interlayer, and even when Rhine broke through to the Gold level, they didn't discover White.
Nems discovered him just as he was about to be killed by Nems.
Besides Zovin jumping through space to rescue them, White also planned to intervene.
Although he hid after noticing Zovin's actions.
However, judging from his caring attitude towards Rhine, his hatred was probably only superficial.
It's no wonder that in one possible future scenario, after killing White, Rhine exploded and destroyed Nemus's body.
"Rhine, I will drink your blood and step on you to ascend the golden throne!"
"But before that, let's kill this guy first. I don't want to be silenced."
