Chapter 188 The Second Coming of the Gods

At the same moment, above Beidao Island.

"Hmm?" Feng Bujue, who was still rising in the air, sensed something and his expression immediately changed.

"What's wrong?" Honghu noticed something was off with Jue-ge's expression and asked.

"I don't know why… the energy of that guy who came out of the light column suddenly disappeared again," Feng Bujue replied.

"Could it be… it returned to another universe through the light column?" Snow immediately speculated.

"That's possible," Feng Bujue pondered. "Of course… it could also be…"

"It could also be…" Honghu took over his words, "that the one who came was like Weston… instantly killed by some more powerful existence."

Just as the three of them were talking, Nesru, who was at the highest point, said, "Everyone… get ready to go down." As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Mad-eye.

Almost at the same time he grabbed Mad-eye firmly, the "weightless" feeling on everyone disappeared abruptly, and then the eight people in the air stopped rising and instead plummeted toward the ground.

"Hey, hey… are we supposed to figure out how to land ourselves?" Everyone else was fine, but Snow had no way to fall from this height of hundreds of meters without getting hurt.

Fortunately, Feng Bujue had foreseen this. The moment the fall began, he had already taken a Moon Step and moved behind Snow.

Before Snow could finish that sentence, Jue-ge had grabbed his arm.

With Feng Bujue's help, Snow naturally wouldn't fall to his death… And so, after a dozen seconds, Blackbeard's four subordinates, three players, and Mad-eye landed safely one after another using their own methods.

When they landed, the once-empty open space was now filled with the corpses of Wyrms.

At this moment, Blackbeard stood on a "corpse hill" piled up by the dragon corpses. The Triton Sword in his hand was stained with the turbid blood of the evil dragons, but there wasn't a single drop of blood on his body or clothes…

This alone showed that he, like most super-high-level NPCs, had some kind of passive, very powerful, and reliable "protective aura."

"Heh… Captain, you've worked hard," Feng Bujue said with a smile to Blackbeard as soon as he landed.

"This level… is just a warm-up at most," Blackbeard replied casually, and immediately asked, "By the way, what happened to the south just now?"

"I'm not too sure," Feng Bujue replied. "It seems like another 'Nine Gods' was summoned from another dimension, and then suddenly disappeared again."

"Seems?" Blackbeard repeated the word with a suspicious look, and then said, "Can't you scout the specific situation over there?"

"Yeah…" Feng Bujue said, "My perception range doesn't cover that far."

"Wait…" Snow said suspiciously, "Then how do you know that 'a certain Nine Gods' appeared and disappeared over at the light column?"

"Although the light column is not within my 'perception range,' it has entered my 'field of vision,'" Feng Bujue said. "What you 'see' directly, you can naturally say something about."

This was the truth, not a bluff.

Because the purple light column was summoned by the "Sacrifice Ritual," its energy source had a very close connection with Yvorl, so when Feng Bujue observed the light column through the data perspective, he could capture Yvorl's data stream from it.

However, at the moment Yvorl was killed in twenty-three seconds, his part of the data suddenly disappeared from the light column, which was also the reason why Jue-ge felt puzzled before.

"Hmm… another Nine Gods…" Blackbeard thought for a while, then looked at the collapsed altar nearby and muttered, "Judging from the current situation, these Illusion Demon Cult's fishmongers have undoubtedly mastered the method of recalling the Nine Gods from another dimension, and… have already put it into action."

"In that case…" Mr. Wogg continued, "Besides Weston, among the five Nine Gods who fled to another dimension, there are four… who may have already arrived on this Chumo Island."

"Uh…" In that second, Feng Bujue said in a rather strange but confident tone, "Let me correct that, it can't be four, at most only three now."

"Hmm?" Blackbeard heard something from his tone and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"I don't know about the other gods…" Feng Bujue said, "Anyway, that 'Wandering God沃科尔 (Wo Ke'er)'… was already dead when I last came to Chumo Island."

"Oh?" Blackbeard raised an eyebrow and asked, "You killed him?"

"Hmm…" Feng Bujue thought for a second, "It was a joint effort with me and a few others…" As he spoke, he pointed to Honghu, "This Minister Tezuka also participated."

"If you have to play the joke, just call me Yulong." Honghu was too lazy to complain about Jue-ge's address to him.

"Are you sure he's dead?" At this moment, Mad-eye, who was standing behind them, interjected, "Wo Ke'er is a master-level ranger… disguise, stealth, and feigned death are his signature skills."

"We roasted him and ate him." A second later, Feng Bujue added such a sentence.

"Hmm…" Mad-eye nodded. "Never mind that I asked."

"In other words…" Blackbeard said, summarizing, "We still have to face at most three Nine Gods-level opponents."

"Perhaps," Feng Bujue responded, then smiled, "Heh… but, judging from how Captain you killed Weston, even taking on three at once is a piece of cake, right?"

"That was just an exception," Blackbeard replied in a deep voice. "In the years Weston was under house arrest in Clock City, the Time Lord must have been quietly stealing his 'time,' and Weston himself didn't realize this at all, so… it wasn't until I chopped off his head that he realized his power had already approached 'exhaustion.'"

"But… the other Nine Gods aren't so easy to deal with, are they?" Snow asked, following his meaning.

Blackbeard didn't answer immediately, but slowly raised his head and looked at the sky.

As he was silent, a strange whistling sound faintly came from the distant night sky.

"We… will soon know," As the sound got closer and closer, Blackbeard finally spoke, muttering to himself.

At this moment, the expressions of the players, Mr. Wogg, Nesru, the Marx brothers, and Mad-eye all changed.

Because they had also noticed… three figures had flown directly from the southern sky.
