It seemed that the force gathered from the surrounding air firmly controlled it, making it hover in the air and unable to move.
[Second-Tier Magic: Chaotic Binding]
Immediately afterwards, a crimson flame transformed into a fierce, giant firebird.
After circling once in the air, it swooped down from high altitude and violently crashed into the mass of black flesh.
boom!
In an instant, the blazing flames erupted with a powerful shockwave that swept rapidly across the surrounding streets.
The dazzling red flames spread outwards, illuminating the surrounding ruined buildings.
[Tier 3 Magic: Falling Phoenix]
The sudden magic stunned many of the residents present, their eyes filled with obvious confusion.
What's going on?
Where does this magic come from?
Just as they were wondering what was going on, several mages dressed in heavy robes descended slowly on the wind and surrounded the twisted monster.
It turns out they were the monks from the Dharma Council!
Upon realizing this, the residents present breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing a sense of relief and relaxation.
Amidst the shocked and reverent gazes of the many passersby, a monk turned his head and swiftly issued commands to the surrounding crowd:
"Please clear the streets and leave this area immediately."
"And tell everyone else immediately! The Mage Council has come to purge evil!"
...
Ever since the moment the goddess of justice appeared in the skies above Shulburn, strange phenomena have been occurring throughout the city.
Some humans were the first to suffer unspeakable pain, and then their bodies gradually disintegrated.
From it emerged a monster made of black flesh.
Fortunately, the monks dispatched by the Dharma Council arrived in time, successfully preventing civilian casualties.
Those who had just escaped by sheer luck, guided by the mage, quickly moved away from the area where the monsters roamed.
Such incidents occur in almost every corner of Shulburn, and even the peaceful guesthouse residential areas have not been spared.
Some residents were awakened by the urgent knocking and thought it was a beggar or a homeless person knocking on their door.
When they opened the door, it was their familiar neighbor.
Stripped of their human skin, they transformed into hideous and grotesque monsters.
In their panic, many people didn't even have time to take their most valuable possessions and scrambled out onto the streets.
But to their despair, they discovered that the streets were filled with terrifying monsters.
Who would have thought that so many monsters were lurking in this city?
What's even more terrifying is that these monsters are all disguised as humans.
They use their human appearance to move around the city, infiltrating almost every level of Shrewburn.
The recent spate of crimes in Shulburn is chilling.
No wonder the city's crime rate suddenly surged; it turns out it was all the work of these monsters in disguise.
And now, the appearance of the goddess of justice in the sky seems to have found an explanation.
It is precisely because of these unbridled criminal acts that the goddess representing justice and punishment descends upon this place.
Especially after the Mage Council and the Goddess of Justice joined forces, people's confidence and hope became even stronger.
In their homes or in safe corners of the streets, many residents expressed their feelings of reflection.
They clasped their hands together and bowed their heads in prayer.
"May God protect Shulbon, and this city will eventually be saved."
As these tiny prayers gradually gathered, the phantom of the goddess in the sky seemed to gain some kind of immense power.
...
Above Shulburn, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the clouds a brilliant crimson, like blood.
A pointed-eared elf is sitting quietly on a cloud.
She lowered her head slightly, watching as the surrounding space gradually sank into deep darkness.
Meanwhile, the phantom of the goddess above Shulburn grew increasingly dazzling.
At the same time, the space around her body became ethereal and indistinct.
A series of patterns, like digital fragments, unfolded around her, as if opening a mysterious door to another end.
Through this large door, a mage with a blurred figure slowly emerged—
Haim Horn.
Time seems to have left no trace on him; after all, no one can accurately describe his face.
Everyone has a different image of Heim Horn in their mind when they meet him.
He took a step forward and slowly began to speak, a melodious yet complex voice echoing in the surrounding air:
Am I too late?
Kokot heard the voice but did not turn around.
He simply gazed at Shulbon ahead, especially at the illusory image of the goddess in the air, and softly replied:
"Perfect, perfect."
"However, I did not expect you to be so supportive of this operation."
In fact, Kokot had sent a message to Haim Horn a week earlier.
At that time, Victor had just told her that the project could be launched in Shulbon.
She immediately reported this news to the Council of Mages.
Upon receiving the news, Haim Horn expressed his firm support almost without hesitation.
The Mage Council has gone all out to provide assistance to Shulbong this time.
Even the mages who were not originally in the council were recalled by Heim Horn to ensure that they gathered near Shulbon within a week.
Now, every corner of Shulbon is under the close surveillance of the Mage Council.
"If I'm the only one who supports it, someone will always raise objections."
Heim Horn's gaze also fell upon the enormous, majestic phantom of the goddess, and he then said:
"However, many people came spontaneously."
Unlike those fanatical believers in the goddess of justice, the members of the Mage Council possess a higher sense of justice and moral standards.
They cannot tolerate the existence of evil and injustice in this world.
Therefore, when the Mage Council conveyed information to its members about the potential criminal activities in Shulbon and their connection to the followers of the Goddess of Justice.
Most members volunteered for this fight.
This battle was enough to reveal who the true righteous cult was, and it was the most promising opportunity to completely eliminate all its followers.
"Moreover, we should take this opportunity,"
At this point, a glimmer of excitement and anticipation flickered in the hazy, phantom image of Heim Horn:
"Officially announcing the return of our strongest councilor."
