Chapter 3016: Chapter 616: Joy of the Harvest
With the fall of the Lost Monarch.
A gigantic maze illusion emerged in the sky.
It was like a mirage, not existing in conventional dimensions.
Within the maze, there were countless illusory worlds, bizarrely abstract and fantastical.
Numerous powerful figures were wandering aimlessly in the illusory worlds.
A black shadow in a king’s robe exuded a level-10 aura, as the Monarch perished, the maze couldn’t sustain itself; it tore open the maze barrier and emerged into the real world.
It was precisely the Shadow Fall Master trapped inside.
"What’s happening? Has the Lost Monarch fallen?"
Charactus laughed and said:
"That’s right, we achieved a great victory, the Lost Monarch has been executed, destroyed in both body and soul, with no chance of resurrection... Welcome back, my old friend."
Listening to this, Shadow Fall Master felt as if in a dream.
He was a veteran who had experienced the great shattering of the Shadow World.
He had a deep understanding of the terror of the Lost Monarch.
The Emperors’ expedition would leave not a blade of grass, causing all worlds to fall.
This was no exaggeration.
Now, that great mountain had actually been overthrown.
This feeling was beyond words.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Thank you all."
Thus, the Shadow World restored its lineup to 11 Monarchs.
Edmund waved his hand, and a long snake of red flames split the sky.
Rumble! Deep in space trembled, the maze collapsed, countless figures returned to their senses from their confusion, and fled the maze in a hurry.
Among them were three Grand Wizards, dressed similarly to Gargamel as in ancient times. Their eyes were filled with fear, looking around in confusion.
"What... what happened here?"
"What year is it today?"
Edmund said loudly:
"You were trapped by the Lost Monarch, one of the Nightmare Four Emperors, for tens of thousands, even a hundred thousand years.
I am the leader of the Nora Council, your liberator.
To prevent the Lost Monarch from resurrecting through you, no one is allowed to leave until Nora completes the inspection to decide your fate."
His words carried an indubitable supreme authority.
Even the level-10s present felt a bit inclined to submit.
The many level-9s dared not disobey and answered in a daze.
Excluding those just imprisoned by the Lost Monarch, most had been disconnected from the era for too long and, in a way, were lucky to survive until now.
Edmund naturally wanted to bring this group over to Nora’s side.
Nora now had just over 500 level-9s.
While among these lost reincarnators, there were more than 80 level-9s.
Over ten thousand were level-6 and above, with countless ordinary forces.
As for the reincarnators below level-6, most had completely lost their will and self-awareness, turning into zombies, beyond salvation even by the gods.
Edmund sighed, lamenting the cruelty of the Four Emperors’ methods.
...
Land of Darkness.
The Master of Horror’s eyes narrowed, a storm brewing within.
Even the collective fall of the Four Great Demon Lords didn’t cause such a stir, but the Four Emperors were different; each was a proxy successor of the Supreme Will.
They were the first powerful lifeforms nurtured by the Red and Black Mother.
Each had the potential to ascend to the supreme.
Its blood-red eyes of hatred swept over the strong of Nora, instilling an inexplicable chill in everyone present.
The Master of Horror left under the watchful eyes of the Netherworld Ancestor.
"The war is far from over."
Its voice echoed in the Land of Darkness.
Edmund remained calm, murmuring internally:
"Indeed, it’s not over; after being passively beaten for so long... it’s time for us to take the offensive. The real war is just beginning!"
On the Golden Throne, Levi surveyed his surroundings.
For a billion miles around, there was no intact space, everywhere was filled with space turbulence and even chaotic time vortices that only level-10 strongmen could enter.
He said:
"Everyone, after we clear the battlefield, let’s join forces to seal this place for ten thousand years... Once the space here returns to normal, we’ll reopen it."
Edmund said:
"I think the same."
Subsequently, the battlefield cleanup began.
This battle involved not only Nora but also the Underworld and the Void Holy Temple, so the distribution of war spoils had to consider these allies to not hinder future cooperation.
Levi had already detained a bunch of level-10s in the White Emperor Palace.
Be it the Four Great Demon Lords or the Lost Monarch, he didn’t participate in the distribution of other spoils; he had already gained enough from this battle, and shouldn’t be greedy.
The Dark Battlefield came to an end.
More and more level-10 strongmen returned to Nora, quickly sweeping clean the demon and Nightmare forces within the borders, with the Shadow Army and Blood Battle Spirit gaining much. The remnants below level-9 were left for All Clans to slowly consume and digest.
Three days later.
The Three-party Alliance of Nora, the Underworld, and the Temple deployed 100 level-10 strongmen, with Edmund, Hera, Charactus, and Heaven’s Will standing in the four polar positions.
Hosted by the Supreme Council, an invisible giant web completely sealed the battlefield for billions of miles, making it temporarily disappear in deep space.
The universe has its self-healing ability. Once this piece of deep space is restored to its original state, it can be released again, otherwise, it would cause unnecessary casualties.
After these aftermath works were completed.
Numerous high-ranking members gathered to discuss post-war matters.
Edmund first thanked the Underworld and Void Holy Temple for their watchful assistance, then said: "The issue of spoils distribution needs to be discussed among all parties."
Representing the Underworld in the negotiations was the Nine Death Swordsman: It said: "We only want the Lost Monarch’s crystals and war spoils. We won’t participate in the distribution of the rest."
Edmund and Hera exchanged glances, nodding in agreement.
Among all the spoils, the Four Emperors’ were certainly the most valuable, but for Nora, one Four Emperor was not as worthwhile as ten ordinary Monarchs.
