Chapter 614: Family (1)

Translator: _Leo_ Editor: Kurisu

Two groups of merfolk, whose bodies’ bottom halves looked like fish tails, was moving to them from left and right. They were holding weapons in their hands.

The guards noticed the presence of the two strangers and charged toward them right away with their weapons.

“This is a restricted area! Die!”

“Inform the Avis Council, now!”

The tips of their weapons were coated with green glow. The spears they threw at Angele and the man looked like arrows.

The man’s body twisted and suddenly disappeared into the air. He teleported away and dodged all the spears without any problem.

He charged to the dimension tunnel without looking back.

*CHI*

He entered the dimension tunnel without any problem. He was relieved, and quickly checked the situation.

Angele used his dark-red hair to block the spears from the merfolk. The hair went around the spears and threw them back to the merfolk.

Several merfolk were pierced through by the spears and fell to the ground.

Angele was stopped by the spears for a second; his expression changed after he noticed that the man was already in the dimension tunnel.

The man entered the tunnel, and Angele followed right after him.

*CHI*

Angele fell into darkness several seconds later. He could feel that there was a terrifying power ahead.

*Crack*

It almost sounded like his bones were cracking.

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

On the other side of the dimension tunnel.

Under the clean water, groups of sea monsters gathered around a gray stone altar. The blue energy waves they released were connected to the dark hole in the sky. The dark hole was surrounded by sparking electric pulses.

There were two sea monsters with the heads of snakes standing behind the other ones. Their bodies were chubby and their skin covered with wrinkles. Also, there were some golden marks on their foreheads. The marks looked like a certain type of symbols.

“How long can our energy support the tunnel?” one of the sea monsters asked in the ancient universal language.

“Around 20 days. The dimension tunnel is stable and we have enough energy to support. If the situation allows, we can hold it for around 30 days. Also, based on the information Stan provided, the exit was safe, but we haven’t received any new updates.”

“I think he’s having fun there. The creatures in the weak realms are like insects to him but they are—”

*CHI CHI*

Some strange noise came from the tunnel when they were still chatting.

“What’s that?”

“Maybe there’s a problem with the tunnel.”

The sea monsters looked at the dark hole.

*CHI*

A ray of blue light charged out of the dark hole and turned to the right. It seemed like the ray wanted to leave the water; it was releasing the energy waves of the merfolk.

The sea monsters did not realize what just happened. They thought it was their own people.

“Who’s that?”

“Is that a new sea monster that passed the lord’s test?”

A ray of red light appeared in the dark hole when the sea monsters were still guessing. It was a man surrounded by red light; the man also left the dark hole.

*BAM*

The dark hole made some loud voice, and the sea monsters’ bodies trembled. There was blood spurting out of their eyes and ears. The strange smell of their blood permeated the whole area.

The area under the water started shaking. The land was cracking and shaking as countless vortexes that varied in size appeared in the water. It almost felt like the place turned into a wholy different area.

The two leaders were surprised by the man in red light and were still trying to figure out what happened.

*BAM*

The man hit the black hole again; it felt like there was an invisible barrier stopping him from entering this realm.

The situation finally woke up all the sea monsters.

“The tunnel! The tunnel is about to collapse! Something is off, the tunnel is not strong enough for him to pass through! What the hell is this creature?!” One of the leaders was surprised.

“There are only two possibilities…” the other leader responded in a deep tone. “It could be that the tunnel is damaged. However, there’s a chance that the creature is too strong for the tunnel, and the realm power is trying to push it back…”

“We’re in big trouble no matter what the truth is! Fast! We need to gather all our power and make sure that he can’t enter our realm!”

The sea monsters heard the voice and hesitated for a second.

“Wait! The tunnel is about to collapse!”

“We need to stop this thing now !”

“We can’t let this thing enter our realm!”

The sea monsters released intense blue light, which flew into the tunnel. The light slowly stabilized the dark hole, and the realm power started pushing Angele back again.

“Again? Do you really think you can stop me?”

A deep voice came from the dark hole.

“Arrogant fools…”

After finishing these words, he released some eye-blinding red light. The red light was so strong that it almost looked like it came from the sun. The two leaders could barely keep their eyes open as they watched a black claw reaching out of the dark hole. However, the realm power was still trying to push it back.

Suddenly, a hint of blue light flashed in the red light and moved toward the water.

Angele was not concerned. / update by

He changed the direction of the claw and tried to grab the blue light. A terrifying wave was released by the claw and the wave turned the water into a humongous water claw. The water claw was moving to the blue light at full speed.

*CHI*

The blue light groaned as a human arm was cut off by the claw.

“Do you really think you can run?!” the red light roared and the whole dark hole started shaking again.

“Who?! Who said that we should invade a weak realm?! Tell me, where did this guy come from! This is not a weak being from a weak realm! I think he’s much stronger than the beings in the strongest realms! Sea King, you must explain this to me!”

A deep but loud voice came from the water.

“Close the tunnel! Close the tunnel now! He’s so strong that our realm is trying to push him out! If he enters our realm, it’ll be a big problem!”

The water started boiling like crazy; its temperature was increased to over 1000 degrees Celsius within seconds. Some of the sea monsters were having trouble handling the heat but they were still sending energy into the tunnel.

*WOO*

An invisible force appeared in the sky and landed on the black claw. The black claw trembled under the force.

The black claw started moving back into the hole slowly under the pressure.

Angele was getting anxious and he shouted, “You’ll not escape from me! I’ve already recorded the coordinates of this realm! You have nowhere to go!”

*BOOM*

The dark hole exploded and the red light splashed everywhere. The sea monsters exploded into blood balls. The two leaders were also eliminated.

The surface of the sea was covered with flesh and blood.

A merfolk with three tails appeared on the sea, looking at the terrifying scene. The muscles on his face were twitching.

“Damn it, Sea King! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! It’s a big problem now. He said that he had our coordinates. I should inform our priest now!” His body trembled as he thought of the man’s voice. The man almost broke through the tunnel under the realm power. The merfolk knew that he could not handle a problem like that.

“Collins, don’t worry too much about. We still have a chance.” A female merfolk with three tails walked to him and spoke in a deep tone, “That man was going after the merfolk that was releasing blue light. If we can capture that merfolk and send it to the man, he might let us live. We can even establish a relationship with that strong being—he might be able to help the empire.”

“Are you sure about this?”

“Yeah. The priest already informed us.” The female merfolk nodded.

“Send the orders, then. Retrieve the recorded information and share the information with our Kings. We need to make sure that we can find that blue light!” Collins nodded and made the decision.

“Understood!” the female merfolk agreed. “Also, the priest said that the blue light had a stealth ability and we need to make sure that he’s not hiding in our team.”

“Vincent can handle the problem. We need to utilize our resources in this situation.”

Collins calmed down after he found a solution to the issue.

“You’re correct. If we can establish a relationship with the strong being, it might be a chance for our empire…”

He was trying to figure out if they made the correct decision or not.

“Shadow Hunter Vincent, right? I’ll send the orders now!”

The female merfolk nodded.

“Also, we needed to select a different dimension channel. I heard that there might be a strong ancient being in the wizard world. The strong being that visited our realm is an example, so we should stay away from the wizard world.”

“You’re right. We should find a different dimension channel.”

“Sure.”

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

On the other side of the sea.

There was an invisible shadow on the surface of the water. He just lost a right arm, and was looking at the broken limbs that were floating in the water.

“You failed… Traitor… Even with the key, you still failed…”

A face of an old man appeared on his face.

“No, I didn’t fail. Time will prove everything… Even if I’m eliminated…” the man was muttering.

“Are you trying to find an inheritor? We’ll all die if you can’t find the inheritor in 21 hours and we’ll be forgotten…” The old man’s brow furrowed.

“I respect the guidance of time and I’ve seen the future… I don’t care if it’s my destiny or not. I’ll change my fate!” Blue light appeared in the man’s eyes. He glanced at the sea for one last time and disappeared into the air. It almost felt like he had never been here.
