Chapter 1507 - Backstabbing

Chapter 1507: Backstabbing

The outside was complete darkness.

Nothing could be seen.

This was the scene being displayed by the Sacred Gate.

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Are there really nothing outside?”

? There is water ?the Sacred Gate replied: ? This room we’re currently in had most likely been submerged in water, there is water all around us ?

“Then, we’re probably in the underwater portion of the Pantheon ruins” Scarlet commented.

“Or even deeper” Little Dusk added.

“——How deep are we?” Boss asked.

? Fortunately, I can’t sense any pressure, it’s probably not very deep ?the Sacred Gate answered.

Boss then reminded Gu Qing Shan: “No need to try diving too deep underwater, make sure to stay in shallow regions—– from what I remember, those things were all submerged in extremely deep water”

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Weren’t they all in slumber?”

Boss replied: “Even while in slumber they were dangerous, definitely do not approach any deep water regions”

“Alright, I got it—— I’ll head up to the Isle of Protection first, then try and see if I can return”

As Gu Qing Shan said that, he filled the room with gems again just in case the Lord of Infinite Origins suddenly ambushed them again.

“Go head, try and stay safe. If you can, check up on Reneedol for me” Boss told him.

“No problem”

Gu Qing Shan turned into an orange cat and lightly leapt into the air.

“Meow”

The sound of a cat could be heard.

The orange cat swiftly disappeared in front of everyone.

...

The Isle of Protection.

As a mass of white fog scattered, the orange cat climbed out of the shallow river bank and quickly hid into a bush.

He cautiously observed his surroundings.

———a large number of elves were patrolling along the riverbanks, the giants were responsible for keeping watch for anything that occurred outside of the Isle, while the pixies and other species in the Isle were keeping order in the Isle itself.

Everything was in order.

From the looks of it, they seem to haven’t noticed that the secret room had disappeared.

Strange.

The orange cat was a bit puzzled, so he used [Fog Realm Descent] to directly arrive at the original location of the secret room.

——–the secret room was still here.

This place appeared exactly the same as the secret room they were taking refuge in, down to the tiniest details.

Several elves stood outside of the secret room as guards.

A giant came stumbling, but was chased away by the elves.

“Go away, the Combatants who had saved everyone are resting in the secret room, what did you come here for?” one of the elves said with irritation.

The giant tried to smile in a friendly manner and said: ? I’m not here for anything, I just wanted to know how the Guardian and sir Death God is doing ?

“They’re both resting in the secret room, don’t come and bother them” another elf replied.

Receiving this answer, the giant was satisfied and left.

The orange cat shivered a bit, then released his inner sight to examine the inside of the secret room.

——this wasn’t the secret room at all, even inner sight was easily able to penetrate it.

There’s no one inside.

It seems that these elves and giants hadn’t realized that we’ve been taken away together with the secret room itself.

This was very well done on the Lord of Infinite Origins’ part.

The orange cat thought briefly while wagging his tail.

I can’t tell these beings about what just happened, otherwise, it would only cause unnecessary fear and panic.

——it’s best to maintain this façade for now.

The orange cat lightly flew away.

He had left the Isle, heading downstream of the underground river.

Not too long ago, he ran into Boss, who was heading after Reneedol, right here.

If Boss was led here by the Lord of Infinite Origins——–

Why did the Lord of Infinite Origins have to do such a thing?

The orange cat gradually became cautious.

While maintaining gentle flight, he slowly moved forward.

After a few dozen minutes of flight, he heard some talking from ahead.

The orange cat silently approached while concealing himself.

This was a divine palace that had been submerged in water, leaving only half of the roof portion still above water, which contained the statue of a female pixie.

Reneedol and the female elf from before were both here.

“There’s still no commotion even after so long, could that Lord of Infinite Origins have passed?” Reneedol asked.

“Don’t hold such wishful thinking” the female elf refuted: “That was a Five Element Calamity, capable of continuously evolving. Once you approached, it would suck you in and kill you before you can even think of retaliating”

Reneedol appeared hesitant.

“Thanks to you, I’ve recalled my past in the Age of Myriad Deities, but I still can’t remember what happened that night” she suddenly said.

The orange cat’s expression froze.

—–Reneedol had remembered her past memories?

This isn’t good news.

The orange cat flew lower, cautiously approaching them from the other side of the roof.

Lachesis hurriedly called out: “Atropos, more and more Apocalypses keep showing up by the day, you have to take me with you so I can survive!”

“My sister, why do you insist on saying that I’d be able to survive?” Reneedol asked with a strange expression.

Lachesis loudly shouted: “Because you have the Wing of Fate, it is the proof of survival into the future. During the overpowering waves of Apocalypses, it will ensure that you survive until the very end!”

Reneedol’s expression appeared cold and said: “Among us three sisters, you were the psychotic, the one they all fear. Who would have thought you’d openly beg me right now just to hope for survival?”

“You—–” Lachesis opened her eyes wide and spoke.

“Lachesis” Reneedol lightly cut her off, “Tell me the real situation. If you don’t tell me, how would I know what’s truly going on? And if I don’t know, I would definitely not help you with anything”

Lachesis hung her head, hesitated for a bit, then finally said: “The Pantheon we’ve hidden at the edge of the Dusty World had been destroyed”

“Who destroyed it?” Reneedol asked

Lachesis sorrowfully replied: “Who else could it be? The one who created us using the Laws, the Lord of Infinite Origins, Godfather of all Deities, the King of everything”

Reneedol took a step back and cautiously observed her.

Lachesis shook her head: “We fled into the Realm of Life because the Myriad Deities in the Realm of Death had all become his puppets. We have no choice but to run away”

Reneedol said: “But from what I can see, you aren’t under his control at all”

Lachesis abruptly looked up at her and raised her voice: “That’s because when he created me, he used the pixie’s bloodline to make up half of me! You know just how unreasonable of a species the pixies are, he can’t project his thoughts onto a pixie’s body!”

Reneedol nodded.

“My sister, you are correct. The Myriad Deities had now become a part of the past, and to survive while trapped between the Apocalypses and the Lord of Infinite Origins, you truly have no other option but to rely on me”

She took a step forward and said: “But sister, I cannot trust you. You must make a Deific Vow to guarantee that you would never harm me, only then would I accept you”

Lachesis took a step back.

Reneedol followed with another step forward and continued: “You would be able to follow me and survive, heeding the new era together. I can already see the resurrection of the Myriad Deities as well as our glorious future, however—–”

She stared straight into Lachesis’s eyes and doubtfully asked: “How can I be assured leaving my back to you?”

Lachesis sighed, then said: “Similarly, I cannot trust you”

Reneedol immediately knelt on one knee, lowered her head, closed her eyes, and made a vow: “I, one of three Deities of Fate, Atropos, hereby make a vow to the disciplinary net of the Myriad Deities. As long as Lachesis make a similar Deific Vow as guarantee, I vow to never harm her and heed the new era together”

From the void of space, numerous tiny whispers was suddenly heard.

A flower crown appeared from thin air, which was caught by Reneedol and put over her head.

“Take a look, my sister, I’ve been recognized by the Deific Vow, now it is your turn”

Lachesis had been holding her breath, it was only now that she finally sighed in relief.

She also knelt on one knee in front of Reneedol, lowered her head, closed her eyes, and also began to make a Deific Vow:

“I, Lachesis, hereby make a vow...”

As she continued to chant, Reneedol silently observed her while listening to her vow.

Suddenly, Reneedol reached out her hand and quickly tapped the void of space several times.

Behind Lachesis, from the nearby rushing river, a mass of dark fog suddenly manifested.

This fog quickly approached Lachesis and formed a dark net behind Lachesis.

Lachesis didn’t notice this at all.

Reneedol’s expression still hadn’t changed, seemingly listening to her vow.

Right as Lachesis was about to finish her vow, the net abruptly turned into a giant featureless humanoid face that opened its mouth and chomped down.

“AH——–”

Lachesis uttered a curt scream.

The featureless face tilted backwards and completely swallowed her!

Reneedol collapsed on the ground and continuously trembled.

However, while she trembled, she abruptly broke into laughter:

“A vow? Did you really think I’d let you finish that vow? One of you was too psychotic, the other too snobbish, I knew neither of you would be able to amount to anything, my sisters!”

The giant featureless humanoid face carefully chewed for a while, then calmed down and turned to Reneedol.

? Prepare ?

It spoke with a resounding voice:

? The power of the three Deities of Fate shall belong to you alone! ?

Endless black fog rushed forward from the underground river and fully enveloped Reneedol.
