Child of Destiny-Chapter 882 The Spark That Will Start The New Era

...…

As the battle progressed David couldn't help but raised his eyebrows as he finally sensed that there was something wrong.

The opponent was definitely buying time for something. And they brought as many followers of the Corrupted Cult as possible to make sure that the opposing side had no choice but to deal with them.

Because of this, David would be forced to stay in this place even if he realized their true goal.

Of course, they also prepared a contingency plan if ever their numbers couldn't stop David. After all, the guy already slaughtered one of their armies and a monster horde all by himself even if those forces were led by powerful messengers of the cult.

A few moments later, David suddenly made a couple of hand signs, seemingly activating a skill. The movements of his hands were so fast that he was able to finish the series within a couple of seconds.

"Ha!"

With a shout, a magic circle suddenly shone from the ground beneath him and illuminated the whole area.

His actions attracted the people fighting in a distance, making them stop what they were doing for a moment and looked in his direction.

But it was only for a moment. The rest of the Empyrean Talons alongside Morgan, Hayden, Ringgo, and Raven immediately resumed taking down their enemies one after another.

David seemed to not care about them as he continued what he was doing. And when the light of the magic circle finally subdued, a small trance was left behind and pointed towards a certain direction.

If Immortal saw this, then he would be surprised that this light was accurately pointing in their direction.

David looked where that light was pointing as his eyes shone brightly. His body was also emitting a similar brilliance, making his appearance look like a deity.

His sight was able to pierce through the thick fog enfolding the whole Sky Deceiving Valley. The trees blocking his line of sight were also unable to obstruct him.

Swoosh!

His view seemed to zoom in as he spotted a group of players approaching the wall of ice from a different location.

The three people leading the group seemed to sense something. They felt that a gaze completely locked on them.

"Found you!" muttered David with a smirking smile.

...

In that location, Justin and Flouree couldn't help but frown deeply because of the uncomfortable feeling of being spied on.

They could sense that someone was watching them but they couldn't find the location where it was coming from.

"What a terrifying spying ability," muttered Flouree as a shiver ran through her back.

Justin squinted his eyes but didn't say anything. He felt that this gaze was somewhat familiar but he couldn't recall where and when he experienced it before.

Immortal was also knitting his brow. He opened a special chat channel and contacted someone. And after talking to the person on the other side of the line, he turned to the others. "Let's continue."

Justin and Flouree raised their eyebrow when they heard that but still nodded their head. They then resumed their steps and followed Immortal.

Demon God Justin only had a single thing on his mind right now and that was to get his revenge on Shin and the other members of the Empyrean Talon. That was the only way left for Arielle to look in his direction and come back to them.

He needed to prove that their group was inferior to Silent Night. This was his final chance and there was no room for mistake.

But it was a little different for Flouree. She might be a mercenary who needed to strictly follow the contract set by their contractor, but it didn't mean that she had to ignore some variables that could risk the safety of her members.

She looked at Immortal and asked. "Did you know who is it?"

Immortal slightly slowed down his steps and turned his head, looking over his shoulder to give her a sidelong glance. "It must be Khing. The guys keeping him in check saw that the was using a special technique."

"He must have a method to lock on our location and see what we are doing," he added.

Hearing those words, the frown that the two had turned deeper. They couldn't imagine how scary Khing was right now.

That guy shouldn't be that strong yet since he just joined the game. But with just a short period of time, not only did he manage to catch up with the leading players, he even surpassed most of them and gained an overwhelming ability.

These two were confident about their strengths as they were Godlike Players and held their titles for such a long time. But both of them knew that they would not be a match for such a crazily powerful player.

Learning that Khing had set his eyes on them, the two couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

What if he suddenly attacked them out of nowhere?

They were not confident enough to fight him despite their advantage of numbers.

After all, that person was also previously known as someone who had unrivaled prestige.

There was a time when he fought against a large number of experts that made a mark in the history of virtual games.

It was a plot set by a powerful force to get their revenge on him.

They gathered all of the top players who had a grudge against him. Each of the players who participated in that plan was an absolute expert among the experts, so their battle strength was definitely terrifying.

He didn't only survive that battle, but he also slaughtered all of them without missing a single person.

It didn't matter if he was outnumbered or if those opponents were powerful, all of them were the same in his eyes, an obstacle that he needed to overcome to continue moving forward.

It was a hard battle, but he still emerged victorious!

That incident was known as the Blood Trail on a Snowfield. It was also a mark of the emergence of the King!

A lot of legendary players had a similar incident and also managed to overcome it, but they still couldn't surpass his prestige because of how historical it was.

Aside from the unrivaled players of that time, no one would dare to fight such a terrifying player.

Immortal knew what the two were thinking, so he immediately reassured them that they already had a plan. "Don't worry. He will not have time to deal with us because he is going to be busy taking care of himself."

The two instantly understood his words and couldn't help but gave him a strange look.

Justin clenched his fists while Flouree knitted her brow. Then they asked at the same time.

"You manage to find someone who can deal with him?"

"You have such a person on your ranks?"

Immortal smirked when he heard their questions. He then his head back in front of them and spoke. "If there is a light, then there is always been a shadow."

"He may have a powerful strength and prestige of a King, but there are still people who also possessed a similar might and reputation."

"And such a person happened to be one of us," he added with a mystifying tone.

They two wanted to know who it was but Immortal refused to disclose such information to them. They could only wear a solemn looks on their face while trying to figure out the answer themselves.

****************

Going back to the place where the portal was located.

The light surrounding David and his glowing eyes finally subdued. He picked up the umbrella placed on his lap and started to stand up.

He was preparing to kill all of these Cult Followers and get over everything. He already had a suspicion that these guys were just a distraction to mislead him. But he couldn't immediately leave since the skill that he just used needed some time before he could cast it.

Now that he knew the plan of the opposing side, it was better to clear this place before heading to the location of his main target.

But before he could even make his move, he suddenly sensed a dangerous presence coming from a certain direction.

He cast his cast towards a certain tree and did not move. He just locked his eyes on it as if he was waiting for someone to reveal himself.

Not long after, a laugh suddenly sounded from behind the tree as a hooded person revealed himself. "You still haven't changed after all these years, cautious yet also fearless at the same time."

The appearance of that player was hidden by his cloak but David seemed to recognize that person. "I don't expect you to be making your move this early."

That person laughed once more and responded. "Hah! You revealed yourself in such a high-profile manner, so you should expect the others will also start making an entrance."

"The Frost Goddess and the Goddess of the Drifting Moon already make their appearance, then the God Slayer and Death God are steadily making their comeback."

"With such incidents, how can we continue staying in the dark? The era may have changed but you still can't count us out with our strengths," he added with a serious tone.

Then he slightly raised his head, revealing his face at David. "This fight is going to remind everyone of our existence."

"Tsk! Stop with the cringe talk and come at me already. Let's see if you improved after my 'little' vacation," said David with a provoking tone.

That player took out a pair of chained sickles and started charging at David. "Hah! More like me checking if your skills did not get rusty!"

And just like what he said, this battle was going to be the signal for the change that was about to come.

The re-emergence of the forgotten Myths.

And…

The birth of the new Legends.
