I'm the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization

Chapter 404

The blue light in his hand gradually transformed, becoming thin trails of light that Bai Yan gathered in the palm of his hand.

Using the mighty power of the "Sword of Demons", he gradually absorbed the soul of Ming, feeling very clearly that his own power was expanding.

That swelling feeling was like being stuffed into an almost full wardrobe, and yet somehow, more things were crammed in... White Yan was taken by surprise at the unexpected gaps that appeared.

He was growing stronger.

But there was still some distance to the Apocalypse.

Originally, Bai Yan thought he was about to reach the Apocalypse.

Sure enough, the Sword of Demons possessed the ability to devour souls and become stronger. So... by harnessing the Power Possession, one could also grow stronger by devouring souls.

"Is this how I will reach the Apocalypse in the future?"

Bai Yan murmured to himself, thinking that if he could reach the level of the Apocalypse, it would undoubtedly provide great help in saving World.

Most importantly, every time I enhance my strength, it seems that "Babel Tower" will unlock new abilities.

To be honest, if the dual abilities of "game" and "connection" were to reach the Apocalypse, what kind of new abilities would appear?

He was even a little bit surprised.

"Hmm, for now let's not think too much about this... Finding the truth is currently very important."

Although they had already defeated and absorbed the BOSS, they still needed to search for the truth.

Because Bai Yan knew that this matter involved not only Ming and the Doomsday Race.

More importantly... it involved the Leaf King... who is currently the leader of the Air Alliance, the person with the highest authority according to the laws.

Bai Yan closed his eyes and immersed his mind into the ocean of consciousness. He began to use his own power to unravel numerous memories, focusing on the parts he currently needed the most.

In the depths of Ming's memories, there was indeed a part concerning Tatsumi City.

Or, to be more precise, it was about that part concerning Noah.

In reality, Ming was not the true mastermind behind this.

She was merely carrying out the commands of her master, the Hundred-Armed Giant named Nullify, and didn't belong to the group of decision-makers.

"Nullify" is a terrifying giant with a hundred arms that has existed for an unknown amount of time. It possesses immense power, almost god-like, and worships the great Outer God, "Black Abyss Deep Sea."

Its dream was singular, to become a true deity, and therefore it sought the bestowal of the Black Abyss Deep Sea.

Nullify instructed his strongest subordinate, Ming, to send someone to infiltrate Tatsumi City in Noah's world. Their mission was to search for and unravel the seal of the Black Abyss Deep Sea.

"The seal of Black Abyss Deep Sea... is it in Tatsumi City?"

Bai Yan "saw" this and couldn't help but feel astonished. Such a thing, he had never even considered before. Could this be the greatest peculiarity of Tatsumi City?

"In fact, I have always been guessing that the beginning of 'Babel Tower' in Tatsumi City has many reasons, but I didn't expect there to be this reason."

(Translated by Gravity Tales ????)

He thought that the special thing about Tatsumi City was its weak spatial barrier, which made it vulnerable to intrusions from external beings, along with that powerful Ruin-level Relic.

"The Overflowing in the World, Recording Everything" that had already been taken away by the witch.

Now, he realized that Tatsumi City was actually sealing an incredibly terrifying existence, the true form of the Black Abyss Deep Sea!

A part of the Black Abyss Deep Sea resided within the abyss, and its main body was unexpectedly sealed in the Noah's World, even sealed within the location of Tatsumi City.

Once the Black Abyss Deep Sea, as the Outer God, is unsealed, the entire Noah's World will crumble and disintegrate in an instant, and the universe will vanish in the blink of an eye.

"What kind of being could possibly seal the essence of the Black Abyss Deep Sea?"

He thought that the one who sealed the Black Abyss Deep Sea should be an Outer God.

But, the information that followed... amazed Bai Yan beyond measure!

"What a surprise!"

In the depths of Ming's memory, the being that sealed the Black Abyss Deep Sea countless years ago was actually not an Outer God of the same level, nor even a deity.

But merely a being who has not yet reached the realm of gods.

This left Bai Yan feeling astonished.

Could a non-deity really seal an Outer God?

How could this be possible?

"Completely unreasonable!"

Bai Yan felt that this was somewhat unbelievable. Compared to the mighty Outer God, non-deity mortals were truly like ants in comparison to humans.

Even the demigods were no exception.

No matter how large and exaggerated an ant may be, even if it tried its best to bite a human's finger, at most it would only make the human recoil their hand... It is impossible for an ant to forcefully lock a human in a small dark room.

Although many extraordinary individuals could banish the projections of the Outer Gods or, save World by disrupting the rituals before their arrival.

"That means, the Leaf King had planned everything from the very beginning. He orchestrated the attack by Aliin himself, and used the power of the Imperial Guards to forcefully imprison Ms. Peggie... And in the end, he successfully became the leader of the Air Alliance."

Bai Yan had played through the first playthrough of "Babel Tower" and discovered that the Leaf King was always successfully chosen as the leader of the Air Alliance. However, it was now his first time learning the truth of the matter.

Because the secret behind this matter was too shocking, the Leaf King didn't allow the direct involvement of the Demon Hunt General Agency after several Night Watchers encountered trouble one after another.

Instead, they chose Babel Tower.

"Why choose the Babel Tower? Aren't they afraid that the Babel Tower might hold something against them? Since they want us to investigate the truth."

After pondering for a while, Bai Yan suddenly realized.

In fact, the Leaf King wasn't afraid of the truth being revealed at all!

Otherwise, he would have already eliminated all the Night Watchers, whether they were aware of the truth or not.

His true supporters were the Imperial Guards of the Eyes of the Empire. This was the real reason why the Leaf King became the leader of the alliance, and not for any other reasons.

Now that the outcome was settled, what difference would it make even if the conspiracy were to be revealed again?

Could there really be someone who wants to reason with the 'world'?

World and the Leaf King schemed against Ms. Peggie, as they didn't want any turmoil within the Air Alliance and desired a smooth power transition... but it doesn't mean they couldn't resort to even more violent methods.

The Leaf King asked the Babel Tower to handle this matter, just to see what choice the Babel Tower would make... If the Babel Tower conceals this matter, then it means that the Babel Tower and him share a secret, and from then on they would be trustworthy allies.

Otherwise, the Babel Tower would become the enemy of the Leaf King, no, the entire empire, including the Imperial Guards.

"In a world where great power converges, strong individual strength is indeed the best authority," Bai Yan muttered.

"How are you? Senior Profligate, what did you see in the end?"

Mu Ling walked over to him, looking at him with confusion.

She noticed that Profligate senior stood still in the same spot for a long time.

Mu Ling could see clearly as the soul was absorbed, but she wasn't sure what exactly Profligate senior gained from the soul.

To be honest, Mu Ling has always admired this a little.

That is because Mr. Profligate possesses an abundance of power!

In her impression, she had never encountered an extraordinary being so incredibly strong and filled with such immense power!

But the senior Profligate was undoubtedly an exception.

"Hmm... I think I've already figured out the truth."

Bai Yan pondered for a moment and decided not to tell Mu Ling about the reasons and consequences of the matter.

To save World of Noah, he needed the power of the Imperial Guards instead of confronting them.

And if Mu Ling knew the true facts, with her sense of justice... it was inevitable that she would develop strong enmity towards the Leaf King and the "world."

When the Aliin people attacked Highest City, although none of the scared kings died, there were a small number of casualties among the people living in the city.

Mu Ling would definitely care about this... In fact, Bai Yan cared a lot too.

But reason told him that it wasn't the time to punish the two of them yet.

When the time comes, only when the "Savior" gives the order, can she resist her impulsiveness.

For some reason, Bai Yan just didn't want the "Savior" to lose favor in Mu Ling's heart, but rather hoped to maintain a perfect image.

So, he simply chose not to disclose the true facts to Mu Ling.

"But this true fact, I cannot say."

Bai Yan took a deep breath and gazed into Mu Ling's eyes, hoping that she would understand him.

"Since that's the case, let's deal with the Doomsday Race inside this fortress."

Mu Ling nodded without asking further questions, instead, she eagerly desired to liberate Ironcore Fortress.

Tens of thousands of enslaved slaves lived here, constantly displaying their suffering, which made her feel extremely angry.

"No, our battle is not over yet."

Bai Yan gently shook his head, his expression gradually growing serious.

The battle here has not yet come to an end... Inside the Babel Tower, the true form of Bai Yan has long been aware of this fact through the Babel Tower game.

Mu Ling's eyes widened slightly, and then she saw the enormous Black Abyss Deep Sea sculpture ahead start to glow.

A beam of dark light.

"Black Abyss Deep Sea!" cried Mu Ling uncontrollably.

Her gaze was captivated by the intense beam of dark light.

The pitch-black light had undulating waves resembling a dark ocean. At this moment, she felt as if she was submerged in the deepest depths of the sea, with the brightness growing more distant. Deep within her heart, only the most intense fear remained!

Mu Ling could feel a sense of drowning overwhelming her mind. She wanted to struggle, but she was completely powerless!
