Pantheon Intervention Recalculating a shift is occurring within your Nether Core

Space and time around Randidly began to distort

FIERO Elhume bellowed out the words his body covered in Nether wounds For once in your life put forth some effort

Fuck you Fiero snarled back but at the same time Mind Randidly felt a renewed assault of the mines an endless tide of demand that scratched and clawed and frothed and seemed to eat itself in order to fuel the assault From concentrating on Sulfur Fiero spread back out and began to assault the whole of him In that desperate image Randidly saw the corruption of Devick the twisted heart of Mae Myrna the self righteousness of so many of the NexusÆs monsters As a foil his own truths found their own pure notes

Randidly and Sulfur gave up small stretches of ground against that Ninth fist which caused cracks to form across the arms surface Parts of RandidlyÆs skin flaked away But they were superficial wounds and Body Randidly continued to act as a grey wreathed avatar of vengeance slamming spear and fist again and again into an Elhume who couldnÆt quite catch up despite the power of his body Those strange ripples blasted out from ElhumeÆs form as his truth dimmed

Through the haze of energies PineÆs horrible grinding and the assault of FieroÆs image Mind Randidly felt a strange tinkling in his Nether Core His attention immediately shifted worrying that this new plateau of significance would come with some drawbacks But he just felt the small pupilÆ of the eye opening Meaning flowed out and settled into the dense network of connections within PanguÆs Asymptote working double time to maintain all these Nether flows

Randidly felt his skin crawling as that meaning formed into a familiar figure within the reflected area a shadowy woman her face shrouded in darkness Nyx from which he had obtained quite a bit of value The female figure spoke to him

or at least tried to Her mouth moved so so slowly The syllables took so long to form

Well just gonna need to pinch off a bit of attention for now Mind Randidly spared a bit of itself and then focused back on the million other changes happening within him The Alchemist moved more purposefully drawing on different elements He funneled Nether in complex patterns He resisted the presence of Pine

Body Randidly drove Acri all the way into ElhumeÆs chest

With the notes of Truth within him turning triumphant in his chest Randidly twisted the spear Blood dribbled out and he forced waves of destructive silky smooth Nether into the opponentÆs body Like a match being tossed into a lake the note of truth sputtered out Solomon Rex snarled Randidly Ghosthound

Your truth of selfish predation we donÆt need it in the Nexus Randidly ripped the spear out of ElhumeÆs chest He was pivoting toward Fiero who still grappled valiantly against Mind Randidly when a new change came over him The strange unbalancing of his inner world was enough to dampen the notes of his truth His Nether Core wavered

RandidlyÆs face warped in bewilderment as he examined the sensation What the hell

Abruptly Randidly felt a tug against his significance Whereas he had been owed before he now somehow owed Don Beigon

And the other party demanded immediate repayment

RandidlyÆs eyes blazed for a moment torn between several vindictive moves You dumb piece of shit Well sorry to those who might suffer from this but

Randidly made a gift of all those gathered Grand Fates he had been hiding Devick snakes of madness and all Along with a generous wave of significance an amount that was a pittance to the current him Randidly repaidÆ his debt to Don Beigon

Balance restored Randidly looked around him Pine filled the sky Elhume crouched on the ground clutching the wound in his chest black veins of poisoned Nether worming its way out from the gash FieroÆs eyes bulged so wide they seemed about to pop

Randidly smiled Alright where were we Solomon Fiero I think itÆs time the two of you reveal your last trump card Otherwise we are done here

Chapter 2403

For a while the trio Nether Ritual stared at the glistening Nether Core they had assembled all in awe of the heights which Randidly Ghosthound had reached Waves of warm energy swirled around them the air had become warm and invigorating You could practically feel the significance in the environment deepening and those benefits spreading out across to the rest of the Alpha Cosmos

But as significant a milestone as this was after a few minutes

What next Devick couldnÆt help but ask Her foot tapped the ground impatiently Definitely she much preferred a little bit of violence to keep her on task

Lowanna had a dreamy smile on her face perfectly content in basking in the warm glow of their accomplishment for the next thousand years or so Now we wait

Devick nodded seriously and kept her eyes forward trying to absorb some of that attitude Enmya kept making shocked noises as he moved back and forth testing the energy thrown off by the translucent Nether Core For twelve seconds Devick managed to keep her expression focused She didnÆt look away from the Nether Core

On the thirteenth second she collapsed under the weight of her own exasperation

IÆm going to train a bit This is just so inspiring I canÆt help but be motivated Devick said as she hopped to her feet She neednÆt have even bothered with the lie both of the other two were too genuinely enthralled with the Nether Core to even examine her statements

Fucking children Devick grumbled to herself as she wandered away to find something to do For a while it was cool to see the environment changing at a visible pace to a thriving ecosystem Beyond the small valley they had used as the base for the Nether Ritual (still filled with the corpses of zombie Randidlys) the ground had exploded into a thick jungle Devick already heard growls and hoots as monsters were drawn to the dense significance of the location

Devick might not be as strong as the monsters determining the fate of the Nexus but these Alpha Cosmos pests intelligently avoided the bored and prowling young woman

As she was bending forward to smell a beautiful tangerine colored and definitely flesh eating flower Devick heard a whisper that sent a shiver down her spine She straightened abruptly just as the flower snapped ineffectually shut The flesh eating plant monster roared and pulled itself out of the ground to lunge at her

Devick absently reached out and stroked the flower with the hand warped and shriveled by a godslaying weapon The flower fell to rotting pieces in front of her its petals already bubbling She closed her eyes and listened The voices bobbed and drifted to her ears quiet but clear

Come to uss

We offer you

We offer you power

Us and youu

DevickÆs eyes snapped open Already she began walking She grimaced picturing what Randidly would say She argued to the air as though she could convince I mean sure their messaging was super shady But thatÆs why I had to investigate A liar would have been more convincing right Th e? most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n( )co/m

As I said The skull of the first guardian rumbled The Path to the Pinnacle can only be walked by the worthy If you do not deserve success

We will make it The Don forced the words out through gritted teeth He raised a placating hand toward the hawk humanoid You can feel the debt between us and I always pay my debts I still have a few more cards to play I have no doubt in my mind that we can overcome one more guardian with our current capability

The final guardian is the most powerful The skull remarked very unhelpfully Then to DonÆs relief it added However most of that strength stems from subterfuge and deceit that being is not without weaknesses It is a statue of pure alabaster with eight arms each with a different weapon Despite their superior reach the glaive and the ax are the weakest of the weapons It is the palm and the needle that you must avoid at all costs They will quell any thoughts of further climbing with just a touch
