Chapter 790: Chapter 407: Stripping the Great Sin · Wrath, Completed Louis_2

As the first monster burst out of the dense forest, the knights at the forefront didn’t hesitate to raise their heavy swords and charge, engaging in fierce combat with them.

Louis’s lips curved up slightly.

Finally... we’ve caught your trail.

In the next moment, shadows rose into forms of dark purple life.

The Curse Binding Legion made its grand entrance.

...

[Location: The corner of the dense forest outside the Thousand Islands Fortress]

Among the four key figures of the Demon King Army, the Crimson Queen sat upon a giant flower bud, her expression cold as she spoke:

"Someone has caught up, and it’s that troublesome group of priests."

Beside her, a mysterious figure wrapped in bone spikes remained silent.

The Crimson Queen sighed and said, "What a load of crap about the great sin of envy, just a dog tamed by Helmer, without even the ability to offer advice."

Envy stood there quietly, eyes full of resentment flashing, yet not a word could come out.

The Crimson Queen was right.

Ever since he was unwittingly killed by Helmer, he indeed was forced into being a dog.

But even as Helmer’s dog, how dare one of the four key figures speak of him this way?

Yet the Crimson Queen truly dared.

When the king handed over the control of Envy to her, he ceased to be any threat to her.

"A troublesome opponent, and a mad dog of Glory at that."

The Crimson Queen’s eyes flickered with an uncertain light.

If one were to rank the most hated enemies of the Demon King Army, below the emperor’s Iron Guard would undoubtedly be the Glory Priests.

Those priests possess unwavering beliefs not their own and courage that defies death.

Once engaged, neither side rests until death.

And the power of Glory is particularly effective against the Demon King Army.

Even Lord Helmer would face significant limitations.

And the Crimson Queen was no exception.

Though they generally developed alone in the Underground City, they knew that the hero’s team to subjugate the Demon King Army had always been the extension of the God of Glory and Justice’s own power.

It’s just unknown what cooperation the Will of the Stars reached with that mighty deity, allowing the deity’s power to be projected massively onto the Continent, concentrating into the heroes’ blessings at specific times and places.

The power of the Master of Glory directly extends to His followers, causing them to deal higher damage to the Demon King Army at the same tier.

It must be known that in the encounters of the strong, for every 10% stronger than the opponent, the pressure the opponent endures increases exponentially.

And now in front of her was a group.

A large group of priests.

Damn it!

This group truly is decisive.

The Crimson Queen shook her head, fortunately, Lord Helmer had anticipated this and made the necessary preparations.

Even Glory’s followers, when facing the deepest filth of the abyss, would surely...

Hmm?

The Crimson Queen suddenly felt a horrifying dread spreading within her body.

A warm spot touched her red lips, a handsome youth placing a finger against them.

"Shh, listen carefully..."

Drip.

Drip.

Crimson blood spread, faster even than the pain that surged.

Then the roar of monsters reached the Crimson Queen’s ears.

She was horrified to find her viewpoint abruptly lowered.

"The body is speaking."

Louis teasingly grasped the Crimson Queen’s long hair.

Her head fell along her hair to the ground, the decay poison spreading from her wound withering nearby flowers and trees instantly.

Only belatedly realizing her head had been severed, her eyes were filled with disbelief.

"How... how could this be?"

"What do you mean? How you died?" Louis said with a cheerful smile, "It’s very simple, I stopped time in this area."

But the Crimson Queen could no longer hear him.

Louis’s face was calm.

Was the Crimson Queen strong?

Very strong.

But compared to Louis, still far too weak.

The Soldier Realm was not the Divine Kingdom, but resembled one.

The world force it produced greatly amplified the abilities Louis’s various systems could exert.

The strength of the Cosmic Serpent lay in its peerless physique and brutally simple destruction.

It was powerful with overwhelming dominance within the same tier.

What some might call an "unbeatable stat monster."

That’s pure strength.

But Louis was different.

Most of his methods were not known for "overwhelming opponents with overpowering stats," but rather "winning against opponents with unmanageable mechanisms."

Perhaps not that powerful, but only more deadly.

The soul of a Demigod has already undergone a qualitative change, able to transcend the limitations of three-dimensional space and precisely perceive changes in space.

It is rumored that the Star Continent once had a type of Mage specializing in space magic.

Below the legendary level, they could freely wreak havoc, and ordinary professionals did not even have the qualification to stop them.

But if such beings were to encounter a Saint Realm legend or a Demigod, even if they elevated their professional level to the Demigod tier, they would be easily killed.

The knowledge, understanding, observation, and use of space are privileges of powerful Demigods.

Space Mage?

In front of a Demigod, not only would they lose their greatest advantage, but they might even suffer instead.

Yet Demigods also have weaknesses.

Sensing the flow of time is a privilege of life, but it is only a sense.

Methods to utilize it are few and far between.

The time stop of ninth-level martial skills compares poorly to a true time stop.

It resembles more a cessation of thought on the mental level.

The Isle of Time of the Eternal Blade is an advancement of time stop, but it still is not time stop in the narrow sense, rather the cessation of movement.

But now, the Crimson Queen was honored to witness firsthand a forbidden technique that should never have appeared on the Star Continent—

By the mighty force of the world, a localized domain of true "time freeze" was forcibly catalyzed.

No delay in casting.

Duration of two seconds.

For ordinary people, these two seconds would accomplish nothing.

But, the person she faced was Louis!

Just 2 seconds, and it was enough for Louis to kill her 10 times.

In fact, Louis even casually chopped Envy into pieces.

Gazing at the blood dripping from the Hero’s Sword in his hand, Louis shook his head and said:

"I knew you weren’t that easy to deal with."

Just as the words fell, black flames ignited on the bodies of the Crimson Queen and Envy.

In the firelight, the flesh and blood of the two Demigods dissipated instantly.

From the space channel opened by the sacrifice of Demigod flesh and blood, a black hand stretched forth, directly snatching at the bodies of the two Demigods.

"You dare!"

A furious shout rang out as the cardinal of Glory spurted blood silently, the war hammer in his hand flickering with light.

A terrifying aura spread, Glory’s Divine Power upon him, and a heavy strike crashed directly towards that black hand.

Louis reacted even faster.

With the support of World Power, the Soldier Realm expanded, layer upon layer sealing the surrounding space.

The Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Pill entered his hand, and a light of the sword shot out.

In an instant, the shockwave split the forest in two.

A muffled groan came from the other side of the space channel, an arm was directly severed, but the invisible suction still dragged the two bodies towards the space channel.

Louis said nothing.

Just unleashed sword light one after another.

The filthy world emanating from the other side of the space channel collided momentarily with the Soldier Realm. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Then, a voice, both shocked and angry, cried out again: "How is your world even dirtier than mine!"

"Who’s dirty!"

Louis was furious.

Lies.

His Soldier Realm is so pure, how could it be dirty.

You deserve to die!

Without another word, he stabbed with a force of rules.

In an instant, something within the minced flesh of Envy was separated out.

The black hand tried to reclaim that intangible thing, but in the next moment, a blinding light exploded at the other end of the channel.

"Eat little boys, bastard!"

The space channel shattered instantly.

With a wave of his hand, that ball of light merged into his body.

A terrifying force spread throughout him.

A kind of fulfilling joy stimulated every part of his soul.

A cruel smile emerged at the corners of his mouth.

Envy was in trouble.

Because earlier, Louis had stripped away the remaining half of the authority of Wrath from his body with a single sword.

Even a portion of Envy’s authority was torn away.

Soul immortal?

First deal with your body, then handle your soul.

In those brief seconds, he turned Envy from a monster possessed by a great sin into a pathetic figure little stronger than the soul of an ordinary Demigod.

"Finally... all your last tricks are gone."

Without the support of Wrath’s authority, Envy was not as invincible as imagined.

And in the realm of the soul, the Glory Priest and Monet the Necromancer would show him what cruelty means.
