In front of the "Blue Gate", the "Lord of Hell" Maldimos held a golden trident in his right hand, and his left hand reached into the void.
Circles of illusory ripples surrounded this dark arm burning with sulfur flames, and the closer it got to the palm position, the more hazy it became, like a lake with violent ripples.
The front of the palm was completely blurred, as if the core of the ripple was leading to another world.
The soft light of the golden trident held by Maldimos in his right hand caused the "Azure Gate" to shake unattainably, spilling out empty blue, trying to envelop the entire hollow.
"Elf Queen" Aglaia took a step back, and the phantom of the elf tree behind her suddenly solidified, and the blurred roots grew out one after another brownish-green strange limbs, which grew in groups of three or five, entangled with each other, knotted like monsters, and "pierced" deep into the blue and empty light.
As a result, the ripples of light became soothing, like the sea surface where a hurricane had subsided.
The space near Aglaia seemed to be a torrent, but the "soil" firmly held by the roots of the tree did not disappear, but remained frozen in place.
As a result, she calmly withdrew from the scope of the Blue Gate, not being blocked.
However, after exerting the effect of semi-fusion with the elf tree, her face was also quite pale at this time, which was obviously a big price.
As soon as she exited the range of the "Blue Gate", Aglaia raised her "Natural Punishment" longbow and aimed this legendary fourth-order item at the "Lord of Hell".
Escape in a hurry is easiest to be attacked from behind, so she plans to attack instead of defend, so that Maldimos' attention will shift to defense first, so that she can get out safely.
A little green light lit up at Aglaia's fingertips, and the "Heart of Nature" behind it glowed, creating a natural beauty that encompassed the entire cycle, and the golden trident in Maldimos' right hand was also aimed at her, as if ready to use one of the five most powerful spell abilities in this body.
At this moment, Maldimos' left hand deep into the void suddenly lit up, like a small sun erupting directly in his hand.
Boom!
The illusory ripples shattered, and the left hand was directly annihilated, while the energy storm that swept everything did not stop and continued to rush towards Maldimos.
Maldimos' body suddenly blurred, as if he had entered another time and space, and seemed to permeate the whole world, living in the heart of every intelligent life with negative emotions.
The most essential breath of the gods is very similar to the "Blue Gate", "Elf Tree", divine brilliance, etc., but they are missing some crucial things from the "Soul Hearth".
The energy storm flooded Maldimus, but there was an extremely evil "voice" from inside, like blasphemous words:
"Sin is reborn!"
Seeing that Maldimos was in the energy storm and his "Natural Punishment Arrow" could not shoot him directly, Aglaia put down the longbow, her body blurred, and then twisted and disappeared in place.
If you don't run away at this time, how long will you wait?
The afterimage of the "Elf Tree" slowly faded in the deep black water, the "Energy Storm" finally subsided, and the illusory figure solidified again, the right hand still held the golden trident, and the left hand was still intact, covered with black scales, burning with blazing flames.
"What kind of magic is this?" Maldimos, who seemed to be unharmed, stared at the void in front of him.
A legendary third-order magician could injure himself without relying on the help of others, and had to use extraordinary power to recover, which was really not something that even in the mythical era! If he had extracted a little more material from the "void" and had a stronger power, he might not be able to be so easy.
The "Lord of Hell" stood quietly in front of the "Blue Gate", neither chasing after the "Elf Queen" Aglaia, nor continuing to probe into the void and invade Lucian's "Atomic Universe".
His body transformed, regaining the appearance of Herkes' fish-man, covered in sapphire-like scales and wearing a blue crown.
However, those crimson eyes turned bright red, and indifference was replaced by sarcasm.
He seemed to be looking at the deep black water that was gently fluctuating above, with the same mocking smile hanging from the corner of his mouth.
On the sea, the afterglow of the setting sun shone down, creating layers of golden waves, which was beautiful.
In a reef, the golden tail of the "Mermaid Princess" Doris gently slapped the water, stirring up waves.
She suddenly felt a bit of extreme evil aura rushing out of the seabed tens of thousands of meters deep, and then saw the scales of normal fish under the water turning black, their eyes turning red, and stained with the smell of sulfur.
Such a mutation did not surprise her, but said to herself, "Why not prevent Him from coming to the physical world of the Lord? It's not good for anyone."
As she spoke, her expression twisted slightly, and her voice became old and hoarse: "Silver Moon would be happy to see that He can steadily descend on the Lord's physical world to share the pressure of dealing with me, and in fact, Maldimus' plan will never forget His true adversary. Anyway, they will never have imagined how great my gains have been during this time, and when I succeed, even if they join forces, they will be just clowns in the circus."
The owner of this voice seems to be Pope "Benedict III" and "King of Calamity" Viken!
"Mermaid Princess" Doris's voice was beautiful and moving again: "Is the 'Silver Moon' nearby?"
"It's very likely, my main star of fate has a hunch, anyway, Lucian Evans already knows the location of the 'Blue Gate', and there will be opportunities to explore it in the future, and Maldimos can't stay here all the time. If I don't figure out this weirdness about the world, I'm always uneasy." The old and hoarse voice came out of her mouth, as if she was willing to let Viken project into herself.
As a cruel but absolutely outstanding magician, the pursuit of the essence of the world still flows in Viken's "blood", and he firmly believes that the individual and the world are inseparable, especially the god-like beings who are currently the top beings in the entire world.
This can be seen from the fact that the gods must rely on things such as hell, abyss, silver moon or heaven mountain to not really fall, so it is really a risky thing to improve oneself without understanding the mysteries of the world, just like when Thanos and himself changed states, suffered a lot of losses and buried serious hidden dangers.
And the weirdest thing about the whole world at the moment is also the point that makes all the legendary powerhouses feel that it must contain a huge secret, that is, the planet cannot be discovered, that is, the fact that it can only go back and forth in the depths of the endless ocean, so even if he is the number one enemy of Lucian and the Magic Council, he is very happy to see them explore and study this issue.
Doris's soft voice sounded: "Silver Moon may be waiting for you to make a move......"
She stared blankly at the undulating "Ten Thousand Golden Lights" in the distance, her voice drifting, like a dream.
On the other side of the sea, a handsome man wearing a red jacket and a black turtleneck jacket was walking slowly on the sea, but there was always a thin blank space between his shiny leather shoes and the blue water.
He lowered his head slightly, his silver eyes looking at the reflection of the sea and the afterglow of the setting sun.
The afterglow undulated with the waves, seemingly draping his reflection in a golden cloak.
Behind his reflection, in the afterglow, a round of silver moon that was not in the sky exuded a cool brilliance, it seemed to have been here all the time, unchanged forever.

The city in the sky, the Magic Tower of Alinge.
"Aglaia has returned to the Elven Court, and the 'Lord of Hell' has not been hunted down." In Hathaway's study, Douglas, who had come to put down his research work, first informed him of the results of his contact with the Elf Queen.
Helen has been guarding Arlinger for five years, so the person who is currently staying in Sky City is Hathaway, the "Elemental Ruler".
"I'm relieved about this." Although the "Elf Queen" Aglaia has her own ambitions and does not completely stand with the Council, when the "Lord of Hell" descends, one more ally at the peak of legend is definitely better than one less, so Lucian is sincerely relieved.
Hathaway methodically manipulated the magic circle and said simply: "All legendary magicians have been notified to be careful of the 'Lord of Hell' raid."
If they are raided by the "Lord of Hell" and are unprepared, they are likely to fall directly, so after Lucian and Natasha submitted the information to Hathaway, the first decision she made was to notify the legendary magicians who did not go out as soon as possible, and activated the emergency contact device left by the legendary magicians who went out.
Although the emergency contact device still cannot contact magicians in special places such as Xenospace, after they return to the main material world or leave the dark mountains, ruins, etc., they will immediately know that the main material world has "more" a hostile god-like god, so they will come back cautiously.
"I thought this situation would continue to stabilize, but I didn't expect such a big change." Oliver, who had just returned, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Revenant Lord" Vicente looked at the half-open lock outside and said coldly: "It's not necessarily a bad thing, Mardimos has always been profit-oriented, and his biggest enemies are Viken and his Southern Church, maybe we still have a chance to cooperate."
Fernando is concentrating on studying the details of neutrons and fission, so he has half-closed "Thunder Hell" and has not yet received any news.
"But the devil has no limit, and if the benefits are sufficient, he will not hesitate to betray us and cooperate with Viken, so it is better to expel him from the main material world." Lucian said in a firm tone.
"By us? Unless all the legendary magicians join forces, there is only one percent hope, but what about other enemies?" The voice of "Master of Shapeshifting" Erika came from the surrounding half-plane projection, and she was guarding the Calais branch to prevent the "Lord of Hell" from raiding.
Lucian nodded lightly and said, "We definitely can't do it alone, I plan to go to the 'Dark Night Plateau' to visit Count Silvereye and seek help from the 'God of the Silver Moon'."
His relationship with Rhine and Aetna was well known to the Supreme Council, so no one thought there was a problem with the proposal, but Douglas shook his head and sighed: "It's unlikely, for the 'Silver Moon', it is a very good thing for Maldimos to descend to the main material plane."
Lucian was in a state of emergency when the "Lord of Hell" suddenly arrived, and he didn't have time to think about the overall situation, but after hearing His Excellency the Speaker's words, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and then understood that this was indeed the case.
"Although it's unlikely, I still have to give it a try." Never give up or back down lightly is Lucian's motto.
Douglas nodded slightly: "Let Fernando do this, you are seriously injured, and the 'Great Arcanist's Robe' and 'Shield of Truth' must be repaired quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to repair, and it is not suitable to go out at this time."
"Okay, I'll write a letter for the teacher to take with him." Lucian thought of the teacher's relationship with the "Nightmare King" and the relationship between the "Nightmare King" and the Dark Council, so he didn't insist.
After returning to the "Atomic Universe", Lucian sighed softly, and sure enough, there was no eternal ally.
After calming down for a while, Lucian did not immediately repair the two legendary items, but took out paper and pen and sorted out the data recorded in this exploration.
"Is it useful to not explore the 'Blue Gate'?" Natasha, who was recuperating at home, looked at Lucian's actions curiously.
Lucian laughed: "Others may not be useful, but I have guessed before, so data is a verification process, and the secrets may not be found."
"Is there such a model in mathematics that keeps moving forward and eventually returns to the starting point?" Natasha knew that Lucian had always emphasized the need to analyze and study problems based on mathematics, so she asked casually.
Lucian nodded solemnly: "Yes, but the question is why this is happening."
