Chapter 486 Disconnection and Reconnection
If it is said that Enyo was promoted to an apostle by the Most High because of the war.
Akpolis simply because of his talent.
Lizardmen have a longer history than elves. In the age of dragons, they were the short-lived species.
It was a time before the sun was born, when the world was utterly dark, with only a single moon. The world was awash in swamps, seas, and wastelands. In this humid, murky world, only three major races existed: the Scaled, the Winged, and the Breasted. These creatures, in all their strange forms, gathered together, communicating without words or language.
Snake people, lizard people, and harpy people were all ancient races that existed at that time.
Dragons were the darlings of the era, as they all inherited the bloodline of the Lord of Scales and Feathers, the "God of Scale and Feather Stealers." Therefore, dragons could transform into any species at will, and they had extremely long, almost infinite lifespans.
Acropolis was the first to discover that if the blood of a snakeman was "jumping blood", it could heal wounds; but if the blood was "calm blood", it would be a deadly poison that would kill instantly upon contact with blood.
He realized that everything in the world has a dual nature, that poison and medicine can be transformed into each other. Thus, he was blessed by the power of balance and embarked on the path of creating potions... In this sense, he can be said to be the oldest alchemist. This is also the reason why both alchemists and physicians can create potions.
But when he made potions, he didn't pursue "why", but was more concerned with "how to achieve it". As a result, he gradually deviated from the path of balance to the path of adaptation, and attracted the attention of the Lord of Scales and Feathers.
When Akpolis was about to reach the end of his life, the Lord of Scales and Feathers gave him three drops of his own blood, wanting to see what kind of medicine he could make.
Acropolis used all his knowledge and strength to create three unique potions, intending to leave them as a legacy for his daughter. When all the potions were created, he died, unable to withstand the miraculous power. His daughter hugged him and cried for a long time, but ultimately decided not to keep the three magical potions left by her father, and instead fed them to her father's body.
After taking the first pill, the dead came back to life; after taking the second pill, Acropolis regained his youth.
After taking the third pill, the Lizard Man, whose lifespan was no more than thirty years old, reversed his fate of being a short-lived species and transformed into an immortal and extremely powerful dragon!
He lived on in the human world as a dragon for a long time before departing for the Dream World. But few knew that the long-dead Acropolis had already become a dragon. He had harnessed the dragon's power of transformation to transform himself back into the withered old lizard man.
Akpolis didn't know any fighting skills.
His body is simply strong, reaching the limit of the concept of "health"!
Acropolis transformed into a giant dark green dragon and flapped his wings, stirring up a poisonous emerald green wind.
The two storms collided violently, and the cracks in the artificial little world became increasingly clear.
Akpolis flapped his wings and clenched his fists.
In the storm, his body suddenly disappeared and appeared before Enyo in an instant.
The sharp claws swung down without any rhyme or reason.
Enyo raised his invisible hammer and slammed it fiercely against the enormous dragon!
After a brief delay, the ground began to shake more violently.
The whistling force blew in all directions, and the scarlet storm was like a split tree, revealing a straight, azure line in the middle - that was the original color of the sky.
Just like the creation of heaven and earth, the azure line suddenly expanded and turned into a blue block.
The scarlet storm instantly dissipated to both sides!
The constantly shaking earth turned into powder, and the space finally couldn't bear it anymore, making a constant crunching sound of stepping on the snow, and cracks appeared.
The warm "amniotic fluid" around it flowed in from the space full of cracks.
After being hit hard, Enyo just shook his body.
She coughed suddenly, her right hand instantly weakened. The poison, too much for even an apostle's body to bear, was accumulating within her.
But even so, she grinned and was ready to fight back fiercely.
He suddenly swung the invisible heavy hammer in his hand, and with one hammer, countless black cracks like hedgehogs were created in the space!
A typhoon as sharp as a blade condensed out again from the broken part of the world!
Akpolis exhaled a breath of dragon's breath, shattering the newly generated typhoon. Enyo's body was corroded by Akpolis's poisonous breath, becoming increasingly weak.
As the two apostles fought fiercely in the small temporary world.
Aiwass just felt himself falling into a deep sleep.
The moment before, Isabelle was still teaching him the details of the Shadow of Avalon ritual. Then his consciousness suddenly became blurry... as if he had accidentally fallen asleep.
When I woke up again, the whole world around me was on fire.
...What happened?
Ai Hua was suddenly shocked.
He was still inside Moriarty Manor, even in his own bed. But Moriarty Manor was already a sea of fire. Outside, there were shouts and screams—Evans looked out the window and saw the giant statue looming in the distance.
The colossus fired a whistling beam of light, plowing a burning trail across the ground.
Under the night sky, the gargoyles flying all over the sky covered the sun like bats.
Aiwass opened his eyes wide and was stunned for a moment.
...Oh my god, how did Xingti reach the Glass Island in an instant?
How long did I sleep?
Or was it that someone erased my memory for a few days?
"Dad, are you back?"
Leah made a sound of surprise.
"Liya," Aiwass immediately asked the flying Flame Butterfly, "What happened? Is my memory lost?"
"No, Dad."
Flame Butterfly answered without hesitation: "Your memory is fine. It was just during the promotion ceremony that it suddenly became unstable."
"……ceremony?"
Aiwass was a little surprised.
How could something go wrong with the promotion ceremony?
"Well, the dream has become unstable. It's still functioning, but you Ascendants seem to have lost control."
The Flame-Defying Butterfly, Leah, gave a clear answer: "Two or three days have passed. It's the early morning of the fourth day..."
After hearing this, Aiwass understood.
The promotion ceremony is based on some kind of shock, causing these promoted people to lose all control over the "roles" they play.
——It’s like being “disconnected”.
Fortunately, after they were disconnected, the characters were able to act independently and did not turn into puppets one after another and be discovered...
Fortunately, I took the Drunken Dream Tincture and was not thrown out directly when the dream fluctuated - there is still a chance to "disconnect and reconnect".
Fortunately, there is the phantom demon, the Flame Butterfly, who can transcend their controllers and exist independently during the promotion ceremony.
As a result, as soon as I got back online, the copy time jumped directly to the early morning of the fourth day.
What happened in between, Aiwass had no idea.
Damn, this doesn't match the original plan at all...
Aiwass pounded his thigh to ease his anxiety.
——He had just told Isabel that he would arrive in the Theocracy at dusk the next day.
Isabel must have left by now... but she obviously didn't arrive in the Theocracy the next day, otherwise the ascension ceremony would have been over. So she is somewhere before she arrived in the Theocracy.
And on the fourth day, Avalon was finally defeated by Xingti.
...Damn it, there's no way to contact Isabel now. I don't know how she's doing over there, or if she's followed my previous arrangements.
This time we really can only rely on tacit understanding.
I hope she doesn't enter the Theocracy until dusk on the fourth day...
Aiwass resisted the urge to shout "Is anyone there?" and calmly opened the door and walked out.
Soon, as if hearing the sound of his door opening, the door of the next room was also opened.
The person who came out was Sherlock, who was wearing pajamas and looked shocked.
Without giving him time to think or organize his thoughts, Aiwass said with a stern face, as if he were just an NPC, "It seems something has happened, Mr. Hermes."
"……What?"
"Look," Aiwass pointed out the window, "the aliens are breaking in."
"……ah?"
Sherlock uttered an unbelievable sound: "How could this be...what am I..."
He obviously hadn't figured out what was happening, and he instantly fell into self-doubt.
On the other side, when Stranger woke up, he found himself in a village.
As soon as he opened his eyes, an alchemical bomb fell in front of him.
An old man's body was blown to pieces, and half of his calf flew up and hit his face.
Stranger's eyes suddenly widened, and his brain stopped functioning for a moment.
Update completed!
The cat went to lunch——
