Chapter 582 Return to Shadow City

[Note: Because the previous chapter was overhauled and the plot that was missed yesterday was supplemented, some of the content in this chapter is repeated. I'm sorry for affecting the reading experience of the readers.]

In front of God's gate.

On top of the spiral tower, there will never be night, and the sun will always shine on the Gate of God.

Dragon wings appeared behind Li You, floating in the air. He looked carefully at the Gate of God, which was obviously made of piled corpses but had no hostility and was even full of holiness.

He observed carefully for a moment before falling back to the ground. Kara and V immediately surrounded him: "How is it?"

"Just like Anpahe said, the Gate of God is a little out of control. Its power seems to be leaking out continuously, and... it exudes an indescribable attraction."

Kara and V were thoughtful: "This gate of God is indeed attracting us to come closer, but the attraction is very weak. It seems to be useless, right?"

"It's very weak for you, but it's different for ordinary people." Li You looked at the Gate of God again, "Also, I feel that there may be a specific 'receiving object'... Wait, the abnormal movement is coming again!"

At this moment, a bright light suddenly appeared from the opening of God's Gate!
Dazzling golden light shot up into the sky, and the entire Gate of God seemed to have transformed into a dazzling sun, radiating endless brilliance.

"Well……!!"

An invisible pressure also spread out, and the attraction also surged!
The three of them couldn't help but raise their hands to resist and steady their steps. Li You even shouted in a shocking voice: "Keep your spirits stable!"

Then, he suddenly jumped up, stood in front of the Gate of God, and pressed one hand on the stone door. After that, the abnormal movement of the Gate of God finally eased and returned to its previous appearance.

"... Tsk, now I almost understand it." Li You put down his arm. "The so-called abnormal movement can basically be understood as the Gate of God broadcasting a message. Its fluctuations will carry that kind of attraction and transmit it to distant places."

"For us, this attraction is just like hearing a faint call. But if it is... someone with divinity, then it is different. The stronger the divinity, the more obvious the induction.

"In the end, I had to stand here to suppress the movement. Is it because of the Sakura Dragon Crystal? It doesn't make sense."

Li You raised his hand and pressed his chest. Although the Sakura Dragon Divine Crystal was not lodged in the body, it was roughly in this position. Through the Divine Crystal, he also sensed the attraction.

"Besides, why did the Gate of God send out this message?"

After hearing this, Kara was thoughtful: "Specially attractive to people with divine qualities? It seems very interesting... Hmm, I still can't figure it out. Do you understand, Meimei?"

As if in response to her call, Melina immediately showed up: "I've seen the unusual movements, and I roughly know what's going on."

"Li You's guess is correct, but it's a little off. To be precise, the Gate of God is calling for... someone with divine power."

Li You didn't quite understand: "Does this mean that it is calling for a demigod who can bear the law... a god-man?"

Melina shook her head slightly. "On the contrary. I think the call of the Gate of God will reach all those who meet the requirements. I'm afraid it's not just demigods and gods, but other beings as well."

Li You was also shocked: "Does that mean... the Outer Gods can hear it too!?"

"I'm not sure, I can only say it's very likely." Melina said, "My understanding of the Gate of God is also very limited. However, I am sure why you were able to quell the disturbance when you stood on it."

She looked at Li You: "Did you feel that the attraction was particularly strong when you stood in front of the door?"

Li You communicated with the Sakura Dragon Divine Crystal and nodded, "Indeed, it is many times stronger than before."

Melina said: "Michaela activated the Gate of God and became a god through it. The Gate of God should have been silent. But it happened that he was defeated by you before he left. The most important thing is that you still have the power of the Outer God."

Li You: "!"

"The Gate of Gods was built to allow gods to be born. I think the struggle between gods and humans was also taken into consideration by the builders. In order to avoid situations like newborn gods being killed by humans, I'm afraid that all divine powers that come here will be recorded by the Gate of Gods."

Li You understood now: "Because I used Sakura... the power of the Outer God when I was fighting Ratan, the Gate of Gods marked me? It kept broadcasting to urge me if I didn't enter the gate?"

Melina nodded: "The Gate of God has no intelligence, it only operates according to the will of its builder, and only wishes for the birth of a god. If you defeat Michaela here, you will be the next user."

Li You: "…what's going on?"

It was fine before, but now he didn't want to enter the Gate of God at all! But if he didn't enter, this thing would keep broadcasting?
Although he couldn't hear it because it was too far away, and it wouldn't affect him even if he heard it, after all, the call was directed to the Sakura Dragon Divine Crystal. But if it attracted some outer gods or something like that, it would be a big problem.

"Is there no other way to stop this thing?"

Melina thought for a moment and said, "…It's not impossible, but it's just a guess. Like I said, the Gate of God has no intelligence. Even if it refuses to close, it's just calling out. It doesn't necessarily require you. As long as you meet the conditions, you can use it."

"So, if we find someone who meets the requirements and keeps guarding the door, we should be able to stop it from moving."

"Find someone who meets the requirements of the God's Gate to guard the gate? This..." Li You thought about it for a moment, and immediately his eyes lit up.

Kara below also thought of something, and the two looked at each other and said in unison: "Messermo!"

But Li You frowned again: "...He does meet the requirements, but how do we convince him to come over and guard the door?"

When saying that name, Li You did not notice the slight unnaturalness in Melina's eyes, but Kara saw it.

She suddenly remembered something, her mind moved slightly, and she looked at Melina: "Meimei, do you have any solution?"

Li You's expression changed when he heard this, and he also looked at Melina.

Although Melina did not say who her "mother" was, there was no doubt that that person was Marika. In other words, she should be considered a sibling of the same generation as the demigods.

So if it was her, maybe there really was a way.

Seeing the two people looking at her, Melina was silent for a moment, and then nodded as Li You expected: "...I do have an idea, you go find him."

"Okay!" Li You clapped his hands immediately. "The disturbance has just subsided. The next one will take at least an hour. Let's set off now!"

V, who had been at a loss for words, raised his head and said, "Finally, there is a solution?"

……

After everything was arranged here, Li You took Kara and V to Shadow City to meet the owner of Shadow City, "The Piercer" Messemo.

The title of Messermo comes from what he did to the Horned People. If he didn't know about it, Li You would be disgusted by it, but now that he knows the nature of the Horned People, Li You just thinks that Messermo is too kind.

You must be ruthless when dealing with the hornmen.

When the group walked out of the teleportation array, they had already arrived at the upper level of the species storage. They walked along the road towards the dark room of Messermo, and then saw an "old friend" on the bridge connecting the two buildings.

The Horned Avenger, who had been in Reda's team before and had been controlled by hatred and stayed alone in the species repository, was now "waiting" for them.

However, this Horned Avenger was now impaled on a huge spear, and his entire body was propped up in the middle of the bridge.

He was still alive and conscious. Even though a spear with a flaming wave blade pierced his chest and stuck into the ground, the Horned Avenger was still obsessed with past hatred and was holding on to his last breath.

Strands of blood flowed down the spear, forming a pool of blood on the ground. Under the "flag" of the Horned Avengers, there stood a knight in dark blue armor, none other than Mulitir.

"Stop...it turns out it's you."

When they met for the second time, Mulitier's attitude was much better than the last time. He said to the three people politely: "The master and Mr. Messermo once said that if you come, there is no need to stop you. Come with me."

She then made a gesture to lead the way, and Li You naturally would not refuse and followed her.

When passing by the flag of the Horned Man Avengers, he knocked on the "flagpole" and the vibration force made the Horned Man's body tremble.

Li Youze smiled and said, "This flagpole is of good quality."

Then, under the guidance of the Kalia knight Mulitiel, the three came to the dark room where Messermo was.

Mulitier said, "I can only lead you so far. Please go in on your own."

Although there were two demigod-level fighters, Messermo and Twin Moon Knight Lailana, in the dark room, Li You did not hesitate to walk forward and push the door open.

But at this moment, Multier suddenly came close to him and whispered something in his ear.

Li You paused for a moment before pushing the door open.

The light in the room was dim, but Li You could still tell at a glance that the person standing at the other end of the dark room was Lailana.

She also saw Li You and the other two, but she had no intention of taking action, and even hung her two swords on her waist. She nodded slightly to Li You and stepped aside.

Li You nodded slightly in return and looked ahead, where stood a statue of Queen Marika hidden by a curtain.

Under the statue is a high-backed chair with a red-haired man sitting on it.

Even when he was sitting, one could tell that the man was tall and broad-boned, but his hands and feet seemed a little slender. In addition, the dark red robes covered by the black armor made his figure look a little unnatural.

The man wore a black helmet decorated with winged snakes, but it couldn't hide his red hair and fairly handsome face.

In his left hand he held a heavy black spear with a flaming wavy tip, but it was larger and more elaborately decorated than the one Li You had seen before that pierced the Horned Man, and it looked very powerful.

But the most eye-catching thing was the two red winged snakes wrapped around his body. They were spitting out their tongues and staring at Li You and the other two from different angles.

Messermo was full of vigor, but Li You just paused and said, "Mr. Messermo, nice to meet you. We are here this time to discuss the matter of the Gate of God..."

But Messermo suddenly stood up from his high-backed chair and interrupted him: "No need to say more. I already know about what happened before. Michaela abandoned her bloodline and destiny from the golden tree and tried to pass through the Gate of God to become a new god."

Messermo slowly walked to the edge of the platform, then released his aura, locking onto Li You and the other two.

The three of them noticed this and immediately became alert, but Messemo just continued:
"Micaela deceived me, thinking of using me to break the seal. They didn't succeed, but somehow the Sealing Tree was still ignited, and his plan should have succeeded... but you stopped him."

He looked at Li You and Kara: "You two, one used an unknown force to ignite the Sealed Tree, and the other helped Michaela complete his arrangement. You should have been my enemies, but it was you who defeated Michaela. So, Michaela's matter is over, and you have nothing to do with me anymore. However..."

"And yet, you are here now, and you have shown me things I didn't know before."

Messermo paused for a moment before asking, as if to himself, "Mother, have you really handed over the responsibility of being king to the Lightless One?"

"…It doesn't matter. No matter what, I will fulfill the mission my mother entrusted to me."

Li You and the other two: “?”

Messermo said, pointing his spear: "I will purge the unblessed Lightless Ones! Now that you have come here, don't even think about leaving!"

Three people: "???"

Even Li You, who had been warned in advance, was confused: What is this? If you want to fight, you should find a good excuse, right?
Where's Melina? Save her!

But for some reason, Melina did not show up.

On the other hand, although Messemo was very aggressive and locked onto Li You and the other two in one breath, it was strange that Lailana didn't seem to intend to intervene and even stood aside.

Li You also felt that although Messermo was talking about purge, his attention was actually focused on Kara, and he and V were just incidental.

Melina still didn't show up, but Messemo had already raised the black spear and locked onto Kara.

"He's targeting Kara... No, the 'Protagonist Fader'!"

Li You reacted immediately and realized that Messermo must be the main boss of the DLC. His target was Kara who took the position of the protagonist!
Combined with the reminder he just received, Li You had already made a judgment, and hurriedly said to Kara and V: "In this case, you two listen carefully..."

"boom--!!"

Li You had just finished his instructions when the next moment, Messermo dropped from the sky with a crimson fireball!

The fireball hit the ground and exploded violently. The erupting flames swept across and almost engulfed Li You and the other two.

However, even with such a violent explosion, the floor of the dark room remained intact, which was somewhat surprising.

Li You and the other two quickly separated and went to the other side of the dark room, but Messermo chased them closely with a gun, sprinting at high speed, pointing at Kara!

His speed was so fast that others could hardly see his figure, and the black spear in his hand stabbed down mercilessly!

But Kara immediately waved his staff and disappeared in a flash. Li You had already rushed up from the side, with a spiral gun in his hand, and counterattacked!
"clang--!!"

With a loud bang, Messermo drew back his flaming spear and blocked Li You's attack. The two bounced away and distanced themselves again.

"...What an outstanding warrior." Messermo turned to Li You, "But you are not the one I'm looking for."

"Is it really not me?" Li You suddenly grinned, "What about this?"

He suddenly activated the power of the Sakura Dragon, and a majestic aura rose into the sky!

Messermo: “!!”

Li You said with a smile: "The one you are targeting is my apprentice. Unless you beat me as your master, don't even think about touching her!"

"Outer God's power... Is that so? That's fine."

Masemo then stared at Li You, then raised his right hand, and a huge fireball wrapped with wisps of black air like snakes gradually took shape in his hand.

"...For those who are not blessed by gold, death will come. Be consumed by the fire of Messermos."

The next moment, the fireball fell with a loud bang!
