Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 1021 - 476: The Ultimate Secret_2

The voice of the gods fell silent.

——The communication ended.

Did something unexpected happen?

Or perhaps, was the assassination on the Parasitic Empress already completed?

A commotion erupted outside.

Shen Ye pushed open the bathroom door.

There was no one outside anymore.

What happened?

Shen Ye quickly stepped out of the bathroom and saw Professionals continuously appearing outside, flying upward.

He leaped out through an open glass window, following the crowd as they ascended.

Higher and higher.

They flew to the rooftop of the skyscraper.

The entire roof had been completely removed.

A hidden chamber was now exposed before their eyes.

Inside the chamber, a young girl had been impaled through the head by a sharp, glowing black spear, hanging lifelessly on the wall.

Su Su!

She was killed here!

So——

The assassination was successful?

"It’s done."

Jubilant voices resounded from the Heart of the Swarm.

Did they really kill the Parasitic Empress?

A wave of disbelief surged in Shen Ye’s heart, followed by a sense of relief washing over him.

Although——

The monsters of the Cosmic Council hailed from another Ultimate Creation.

They were hunters targeting the multi-universe.

But——

They were always solitary entities, and each of them was merely a part of the collective.

The pressure they exerted was limited.

In this case, the situation had completely shifted.

He needed to devise a plan——

"Heh."

The sound carried an air of mockery.

Shen Ye froze in place.

In the deafening silence.

The voice churned the crowd into chaos.

"Quick! Think of a way to save her!"

"There’s no way—she’s still alive! Who among us is a healer? Try saving her!"

"But how can we save her? That spear is lodged through her head!"

The voices around grew louder and more frantic.

Shen Ye’s heart slowly sank, and he instinctively looked at the girl.

She, who should have been dead, opened her eyes.

The spear that pierced through her skull seemed to sense something, quivering violently. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

The girl.

Extended her hand.

Gripped the spear tightly.

She stared at the weapon embedded in her forehead, her gaze filled with hysterical madness, yet her tone remained eerily calm:

"A creation meant for the destruction of the multi-universe, used against me, of all things."

"What an——"

"Unprecedented honor."

Swish.

The black spear was yanked free by her, shattered inch by inch under her crushing grip.

The spear disintegrated into boundless shadows and dispersed!

The bloody hole in the girl’s head slowly began to heal.

At this moment——

"She didn’t die, but she must be gravely injured—this is our chance!"

The gods’ voice rang decisively.

The voice echoed in Shen Ye’s mind.

Suddenly, he understood.

Yes.

He was merely a vessel for Weapons.

So.

It was the gods who wielded them.

Where were they?

They were about to strike!

Shen Ye felt the black dot on his hand tremble slightly, as if responding to something.

Then, in the next instant——

The girl raised her hand and clawed at the void.

A humanoid monster was dragged out, shaking uncontrollably, unable to resist.

It was one of the gods!

Shen Ye felt his hand suddenly lighten.

In the hand of the god appeared a shadowy black spear!

"Die!"

"Die!"

The girl and the god shouted simultaneously.

A beam of purple light erupted from her hand, transforming into a razor-sharp pillar that tore through the sky.

Within that column of light, countless slicing black shadows surged forward, instantly piercing the girl’s body.

The light and shadow both dissolved into nothingness.

Yet the destructive rift they carved into the void lingered for a long time without mending.

A sorrowful lament suddenly rang in Shen Ye’s ears.

The king species were mourning the god.

In that strike, the god was utterly obliterated—leaving no remains behind!

As for the Parasitic Empress——

Shen Ye looked toward the girl and saw her chest pierced by a black spear.

The spear emitted waves of distorted black shadows, like mutated lightning, continuously ravaging her body.

"Aaahhhhh—"

The girl let out anguished groans, her body covered in dense runes of the Laws, appearing to resist the spear with all her might.

"Watch out!" someone shouted.

Several Professionals who were closer to the girl were touched by those black shadows, turning to ash in an instant.

The rest quickly retreated.

Shen Ye squinted at the radiating black shadows, clenched his fists, then loosened them again.

——He had a Truth 12th Rank battle armor.

But he lacked an Attack Skill of such a high Level!

Against this kind of battle, charging forward would yield no decisive harm to the girl!

So retreat was the only option.

Just as he began to retreat with the crowd, a cold voice suddenly echoed in his ears:

"Do it again."

"Hurry! She’s about to die——"

"I permit you to summon my shadow and strike her again!"

Shen Ye paused, lowering his gaze to his palm, where the black dot had once again converged.

A line of small glowing text appeared:

"It permits you to use its Strength, one time only!"

The spear permitted him to use it!

Should he do it?

Do it!

If they could kill the Parasitic Empress, all of humanity here would be safe.

The multi-universe as well.

Attack—kill her!

Shen Ye gritted his teeth, about to summon the Truth 12th Rank Battle Armor, but the scene shifted again.

The girl grabbed tightly onto the spear in her chest, took a few breaths, then suddenly shouted:

"My servants, it’s time to break free of those monsters!"

"——I need your protection!"

The void split open.

A woman clad in a full suit of crimson battle armor and a man holding a black book appeared simultaneously beside the girl.

As the two emerged, many Professionals in mid-air swiftly retreated, some flying away to the distant void.
