Chapter 466:
People were summoned and arrived at the scene.
A black mist appeared above the seat.
In World of Noah, where heroes were both revered and feared by people, at this very moment, they finally gathered together once again.
Evie was visiting the inside of the Babel Tower for the first time.
She saw a magnificent white long table in front of her, with meticulously carved white marble seats lined up beside it. Classical murals and sculptures surrounded the area, depicting various heroic and divine deeds.
In the sparkling night sky, shining brilliantly, at the end of the white long table, sat a mysterious figure hidden deep within a black cloak.
Just at the moment when Evie saw that mysterious figure, she instinctively lowered her head.
That kind of aura was frightening.
Evie knew why she had lowered her head.
God.Don’t look directly!
As the black mist dissipated from the numerous seats, the members of Babel Tower emerged. They were men, women, and even non-human beings, each one possessing an extraordinary uniqueness.
"I am also a member here now."
Evie gently touched the mask on her face.
That was a white bird mask.
Evie’s first encounter with a member of the Babel Tower was her sister, Kaluoer. She sat across from Evie, wearing a black mask on her face that resembled the shape of a falcon.
Just then, she heard it.
[The members of the Babel Tower]
[The crisis of World is about to come.]
[Once again…]
[Your world will become wildly chaotic, everything will crumble, and all living beings will plunge into the deepest despair…]
[Can you save it once more?]
The voice of the "Savior" had no trace of human emotion, reaching into the minds of each individual.
Was that mysterious person really the Savior?
Evie remained extremely astonished. The Savior of Babel Tower, a legendary figure akin to a divine being, and perhaps not much weaker than the Savior worshipped in the Kingdom of Dark Light faith!
Such a magnificent presence, unexpectedly being so close to oneself!
She felt a little anxious and somewhat incredulous.
Finally, there was a deep sense of worry.
"Is it true that the previous Doomsday Crisis was not the final one, but just the first?" Evie swallowed hard and slowly asked, "What do we need to do to prevent the next Doomsday Crisis?"
She was very motivated to stop the Doomsday Crisis.
Because if Noah’s world were to be destroyed, both he and Kaluoer would likely have no way out but death.
For some reason, Evie didn’t feel that her foster father, Incarnation of Dark Light, would allow her and Kaluoer to leave Noah.
The old man was unexpectedly stubborn in certain ways, even though the Incarnation of Dark Light had the ability to travel to other worlds, he had never left Noah in hundreds of years.
Evie said worriedly, "The Doomsday Crisis was brought by the Outer Gods, how can we possibly defeat them?"
A deep, magnetic voice resounded.
"The Doomsday Crisis has certain signs before it appears."
The one speaking is none other than the enigmatic and inscrutable elder member of Babel Tower, the "Keeper of Secrets".
Only Kaluoer knew that the middle-aged gentleman wearing a white lion mask was actually Viscount Edmond, the owner of the Tulip Manor.
And except for the witch who had not yet entered the Babel Tower, no one knew, neither the Keeper of Secrets nor Profligate, that they were actually the long-lost Bai Yan.
The Keeper of Secrets, Bai Yan, spoke with an unwaveringly calm voice:
"The end of World refers to the moment when the bomb explodes. Our goal is not to stop the bomb that has already exploded, but to find a way to dismantle it before it explodes… What we need to deal with is not the explosion, but the person who planted the bomb, the extremists."
"We understand what you mean, as long as we can prevent the summoning ritual of the Outer God," Alan spoke.
He was a member of the Demon Hunt Agency, specializing in his field. He also possessed extensive knowledge of the occult.
"Yes," he replied.
The Keeper of Secrets nodded and continued, "The summoning ritual of the Outer God, no matter how secretive, would undoubtedly have omens. Even if it could deceive the consciousness of World of Noah, it would not deceive the great Savior of Babel Tower."
Bai Yan never forgot in his heart, in the eyes of everyone, it was the Savior of Babel Tower who was impressive, not Babel Tower itself.
Only he knew it deep down in his heart.
If it weren’t for the mysterious Babel Tower, he would never have had a chance to save World.
"Just us few trying to save World? My suggestion is to disband early and escape this world, it would be much wiser." Old Mike’s tone was full of disdain, showing no interest in collaboration.
Evie paused for a moment and turned to look at the man wearing a black lone wolf mask.
Why do everyone’s masks have black and white?
Evie was lost in thought, realizing that it was not a simple distinction between good and evil.
After all, her little sister had no basic sense of morality and always acted only upon orders, making it difficult to say whether she was a good person or a bad person.
In reality, Bai Yan had a guess about the colors of the masks.
He felt that his guess was most likely correct.
Only the members of the Babel Tower who have killed someone they were not supposed to kill would have their masks turn black.
This is different from indiscriminate killing, and not all members of the Babel Tower with black masks are necessarily murderers or evil individuals.
For Scarlet Moon, Kaluoer, and Old Mike, if certain hooligans or criminals dare to provoke them, they may have to pay the ultimate price with their lives.
However, Mu Ling and Alan would never kill someone because of it.
Their moral values were fundamentally different.
Mu Ling spoke slowly, her voice firm, "We will surely save World again, under the watchful gaze of the great Savior, exposing the cultists with nowhere to hide."
Evie sensed a familiar scent of devotion in the tone of that sentence.
Aurora gazed calmly at Mu Ling and said, "Babel Tower saved my homeland, and I will also save your world."
Compared to them, the Scarlet Moon was a bit more straightforward.
She chuckled coldly, glancing in the direction of Old Mike.
"Someone without belief, no matter how many years they have lived, is as good as having never lived. If you want to surrender before the fight, then I might as well take care of you first."
"Hehe." Old Mike faced the threat, simply smiled and said nothing.
Meanwhile, Maryse furrowed her brow, gazing at the new member Evie and the previous member Red Moon, feeling puzzled.
What did they grow up eating?
Is this reasonable?
Only when Maryse saw Nian wearing a white rabbit mask, a smile appeared on her face.
That seemed reasonable now.
In the Babel Tower meeting, some people remained silent.
For example, there was the silent observer Magic Sword, the somewhat socially anxious Red Moon, the talkative Red Moon, the reluctant talker Kaluoer, the one who hadn’t figured out the situation yet, Nian, and Ganis, who had been burdened with worries lately.
Profligate, Bai Yan, smiled and clapped his hands.
"Don’t argue everyone, we are already on the Babel Tower ship no matter what. It’s impossible to quit, so let’s think together how to solve the Doomsday Crisis… Last time, we didn’t really solve the crisis well. It would be great if we could stop the Doomsday Legion from coming in advance."
Scarlet Moon stared coldly at the profligate and said, "I see that you are no good person."
For some reason, she became angry when she realized that the profligate didn’t speak up for her. Her body grew restless and uncomfortable due to a thirst for blood.
"This has been said before, it’s a bit unreasonable," Maryse murmured, frowning, upon hearing Mr. Profligate being scolded.
The Scarlet Moon remained unmoved, her expression icy as she continued, "Are you his little dog? Why do you get so worked up whenever I mention him?"
"…"
Maryse furrowed her brows deeply, her emotions also slightly fluctuating.
Although the Scarlet Moon was stronger than her, Maryse had always been an emotional being with a quick temper.
"Please don’t insult Maryse," Mu Ling said calmly but with a threatening warning to the Scarlet Moon.
Amy, who was sitting in a wheelchair instead of a regular seat, felt that something was amiss. She quickly smiled and tried to diffuse the tension.
"Please, let’s not argue anymore. If we continue like this, we won’t be able to continue our journey."
Amy sighed and said, "Everyone at the Babel Tower has such unique personalities and ideas. In a way, it’s fortunate that we can’t meet often, because that’s what brings us together in ‘unity’."
Even though it was her first time entering the Babel Tower, Evie, who was observing from the sidelines, was starting to understand a little.
Unfortunately, most of the members of the Babel Tower, just like herself, were forced to join.
And…
Wow, the relationships among these people are truly intricate and complex!
"Stop talking anymore, our mighty Scarlet Moon Majesty."
The Profligate, Bai Yan, gazed into Scarlet Moon’s eyes with a relaxed tone.
But Scarlet Moon didn’t know why, she couldn’t resist the wicked man’s commands, and she couldn’t speak again.
This is because in reality, the Scarlet Moon is already Bai Yan’s Spawn. When faced with her own master’s commands, the Spawn naturally cannot resist.
What had he done to himself?
The Scarlet Moon felt a sudden shock in her heart, followed by a growing anger.
How dare he treat me like this!
Tonight, when I suck his/her blood, I will make sure he/she understands what pain feels like!
"In fact, besides the upcoming Doomsday Crisis in less than a month, we can also discuss something else first, something not so heavy."
The seemingly unconnected "Keeper of Secrets" spoke up once again.
"That is, the detailed information about Giant Hive, which is one of the three major cities in Night Union."
"This city is now ours."
"The Babel Tower of today will have a greater influence on Noah’s world, whether it be through admiration or fear, it is inevitable."
Evie was slightly taken aback, as both she and Kaluoer recalled a scene they had witnessed not long ago.
That was happening within the borders of the Kingdom of Dark Light, where numerous people were surprisingly engaging in conflicts due to their beliefs in the Babel Tower and followers of Dark Light.
The influence of the Babel Tower was so strong that it was no longer just a powerful and mysterious organization, but so much more than that.
"Profligate" Bai Yan still maintained a gentle smile under the mask, and continued speaking on his own topic.
"The great Savior hoped… to completely transform the Giant Hive into a perfect home and refuge, providing us with the utmost assistance for our cause."
