Chapter 561: The Witch’s Tricks
Her long-awaited wish was on the verge of coming true.
Merete Chambers, along with the essence inside her, Bai Yan, remained still, awaiting the infusion of the Origin Power.
In a short time, the Ultimate Ritual would be fully restored.
At that moment, a new deity, belonging to the Babel Tower, would be born.
Merete Chambers thought back on her past.
Once, the Ultimate Witch, reincarnated through countless lifetimes, had continuously faced a tragic fate.
To defy that fate and fulfill her long-held wish, she tried every possible method.
Finally, the one who had long been pursuing the Babel Tower received an answer.
Now, the great Savior of Babel Tower would see their long-awaited dream realized.
A dream, perhaps?
She inhaled deeply and gazed up at the sky.
“He has arrived.”
From the heavens, a somewhat untamed voice rang out.
“Finally, I can wipe you all out! Hahaha! Even though countless years have passed, and I can’t recall exactly how long, I can always remember the disgust you bring—like the slimy saliva of a disgusting bug stuck to the wall!”
With that voice came an evil presence, an overwhelming aura of intimidation.
Even the plants and trees on the island began to wither.
The witch raised her head, showing no surprise at the sudden appearance of the enemy, but instead smiled.
“Just as you said, it showed up, huh?”
It must be the cruelty of the Tower organization. Bai Yan felt no surprise at the appearance of one of their members.
During his long slumber, they disappeared without a trace. But now, it seemed highly likely that, upon his awakening, members of the Tower organization would “come running” as well.
The coordinates they sought, or perhaps the bound anchor, or something similar… it resides within my own soul.
That was cruelty.
Standing over two meters tall, entirely shrouded in a black robe, thin and fragile like a stick insect, its upper neck adorned with three golden heads resembling locusts.
From within its cloak sprouted three pairs of insect-like legs, gripping a long, dark staff. At the pinnacle of the magical circle rested a flawless deep blue crystal, shimmering as if it contained the vast depths of the universe.
“Hahaha, this time I have truly descended upon you, you bugs of the Babel Tower! Perish, perish!”
It laughed cruelly.
Merete Chambers gently shook her head and smiled, saying, “Clearly, you’re the bug, aren’t you? And a strange one at that.”
[Be careful, the Tower organization never operates alone.]
Bai Yan, refusing to be distracted, gave a reminder.
He could sense the immense cruelty of the imminent arrival, the upper-ranked Apocalypse.
But she was still no match for the aspiring god, Merete Chambers.
However, if other members of the Tower organization were here, things might be different… I suppose.
“You, said I, am a bug!”
The cruel three-headed creature trembled, clearly provoked by Merete Chambers, or perhaps it simply enjoyed being angry very much.
“Yes, you really do resemble a bug. Would you like me to let you look at yourself in the mirror?”
Merete Chambers had an innocent, naive expression on her face as she curiously asked, “You don’t know, do you? Are you truly that foolish?”
“I just appear to be a bug, but I am not one,” Cruelty explained.
Merete Chambers chuckled and said, “No need for explanations, I understand. So, you’re truly foolish… The Ruin-level Relic told me you’re ‘Cruelty,’ why not ‘Ignorance’?”
Cruelty became enraged.
“I will kill you! No! Just killing you won’t be enough. I want to use you as a breeding ground for bloodthirsty monsters, so you will beg for mercy from me in eternal pain and despair—thousands of times, tens of thousands of times, and it still won’t be enough!”
Merete Chambers blinked and said, “Are you angry? Becoming defensive actually highlights a person’s weakness.”
Cruelty was truly beside itself with rage!
It stopped talking, and all three heads began cursing nonstop.
But the angrier the creature became, the more delighted the witch seemed.
One could say that the witch was its ultimate nemesis.
Cruelty raised its dark wand, the power within the deep blue crystal began to accumulate, and a terrible ripple spread outward.
“He was really furious!”
Merete Chambers clapped her hands and squinted her eyes. In the next instant, page after page of silver-white books swirled around her, composing a grand symphony in the sky.
Three thousand three hundred and seventy-five…
This is the number of “summons” or “pets” she could summon up until now.
Three thousand three hundred and seventy-five, all of them had reached at least the highest level. Among the many silver-white pages, there were also shimmering golden pages.
The witch kept smiling.
Cruelty suddenly felt an overpowering aura surround him. The seemingly ordinary human woman turned out to be as terrifying as a demonic god from the depths of hell.
What’s happening?
What kind of being was she, after all?
“Hehe, it’s been a while since I had a fight. Let me test your strength, you silly little bug.”
The witch continued to smile.
In a fluttering golden page, a story about the legendary dragon knight Quinn was recorded.
She was an extremely legendary dragon knight, raised by a powerful red dragon. Her appearance was that of a woman with short black hair. Under the guidance of the Great Sage, she learned to grow stronger through training.
Suddenly, one day, Quinn and the red dragon, whom she considered her father, appeared on the battlefield.
The mighty red dragon knight unleashed dragon breath, sweeping through the enemy forces. Countless soldiers and horses perished, while the remaining ones trembled and crumbled. In an instant, the tide of the entire war shifted from certain defeat to an overwhelming victory.
And thus, the fame of the dragon knight, Quinn, was solidified.
What she demanded in return was a city of her own in this kingdom.
The king sought negotiation, but in the end, the entire royal family—young and old—became food for the mighty red dragon.
Over the next three hundred years, the dragon knight Quinn repeatedly turned the tide of battle, achieving victory after victory. She slayed countless enemies and earned endless rewards.
She became the most feared and legendary warrior in the stories of war.
Just as she failed to seize the coveted treasure and laid waste to another village, the legendary dragon knight Quinn, the fierce war queen with short black hair, crossed paths with the wise sage who had once bestowed upon her the very essence of her power.
The wise sage’s form changed… and in its place appeared a white-haired enchantress with an enchanting smile.
“You should honor the contract that was once signed.”
“Quinn, oh Quinn.”
“I told you before, if you had never done anything wrong in your life, I would never appear again.”
“Sadly… you played right into my hands.”
Cruelty was taken aback when a gigantic red dragon, a thousand meters long, appeared seemingly out of nowhere.
On the head of the massive red dragon stood a woman clad in pitch-black armor that resembled a small mountain. She had short black hair, a commanding presence, and exuded an aura of cold determination, marking her bloodthirsty nature.
“What is this dragon all about? A powerful red dragon of demi-god level?”
With a roar, the enormous red dragon unleashed its fury.
The earth shook violently!
The dragon took a deep breath, filling its lungs with air.
The scorching breath rushed toward Cruelty, and the world around him seemed to heat up and boil.
Cruelty felt his body almost melting, so he quickly cast the prepared magic.
This was the relic power of Cruelty, capable of temporarily altering the nature of its magic. Attack spells could be transformed into defense spells, defense spells into attack spells, or even into entirely different effects.
Thanks to this extraordinary relic power, it could adapt to almost any situation in battle.
The dark mist turned into endless black crystal, rapidly forming a huge mountain of black crystals that completely encased Cruelty.
A surge of crimson flames rushed toward them like a flood. The mountain of black crystals gradually dissolved, and everything around was consumed by the searing heat of the fire.
“Hmph, just like that!”
Just as Cruelty started to feel a little dismissive, it suddenly became greatly alarmed.
Because the other four golden pages also exuded a terrifying aura.
Even Cruelty, a calamitous villain, now felt a powerful tremor of fear.
The witch…
She was far too terrifying!
It gasped in disbelief, “You actually, can command five Apocalypse-level beings at once?”
