Giant Dragon Lord: Starting from Daily Intelligence

Chapter 737: Chapter 510: The Truth of the World-Ending War

He floated silently above the city being devoured by flames and death. His face, shrouded in light and impossible to see clearly, seemed to wear a detached smile.

Admiring the magnificent... destruction he had personally orchestrated.

HUMMM!

The vision from the Time Travel shattered once more.

The sight before everyone returned to normal.

If the sight of hundreds of Angels of Death had driven them to despair before,

then after personally witnessing that single, world-destroying strike from the golden Divine Spirit who descended like a blazing sun,

all that remained in their minds was... a complete blank.

It was a shudder that came from the very depths of the soul... the most primal kind, born from having one’s very level of being utterly crushed.

”Wh-what... what was that thing?”

After a long moment, Master Wendel finally managed to force the words through his teeth.

His voice was trembling.

”W-was... was that... the true form of the Light Deity?”

”No.”

Mage Morpheus’s voice sounded.

”That... was not the Light Deity’s true form.”

At Mage Morpheus’s words, all eyes instantly focused on him.

”How do you know?”

Master Wendel pressed urgently.

”When I was leaving the Puppet Divine Kingdom, I caught a fleeting glimpse of the Divine Spirit named ’Child of Light.’ Aside from his face, his appearance was virtually identical to the Divine Spirit that just descended in the vision.”

”If I’m not mistaken...”

”The golden Divine Spirit we just saw, the one wielding World Destruction Level Power...”

”His identity is perhaps another...”

”Child of Light!”

As Morpheus finished speaking,

it felt as if all the air in the underground library had been sucked out in that instant.

Raylo felt his heart stop for a beat, then immediately begin to pound wildly, like a drum.

His mind was reeling.

’That terrifying being, who possessed World Destruction Level Power and annihilated the entire city’s Defense Array with a single finger, was actually... not the Light Deity’s true form?’

’But merely... one of his avatars?’

’An agent, known as a ”Child of Light”?’

This conclusion was even more... despairing than being told that it *was* the Light Deity’s true form!

A single avatar possessed such world-destroying Power.

’Then... just how... terrifying must the true form of the Light Deity be, the one hidden behind the scenes who has never truly revealed himself?’

It was impossible to imagine.

”Morpheus... are... are you sure?”

Master Wendel was unwilling to believe it.

”I’m sure.”

A bitter smile appeared on Mage Nancy’s face.

”What kind of terrifying existence... are we truly making an enemy of...?”

The room fell into a long silence once again.

”The Light Deity may be powerful, but everyone, the foundations of our world far surpass that of the Heart of Arcane...”

Mage Delin said.

”Our Mage City has three Great Sages, and several Empires are protected by forces of World Destruction Level. If war breaks out, our world is more than capable of putting up a fight!”

Everyone nodded.

”Let’s go.”

After a long while, Mage Morpheus finally spoke slowly.

”There’s nothing left for us here.”

”We... should head back.”

No one objected.

Everyone knew that it was time for this exploration to end.

They had already found what they were looking for—and even the cruel truth they hadn’t wanted to know.

There was no longer any point in staying here.

At that moment, Coal Ball, having collected all the books in the library, hopped onto Raylo’s shoulder.

Without a word, Mage Morpheus once again waved his Magic Staff.

A seven-colored Rainbow Bridge materialized from thin air, extending back in the direction they had come from.

With heavy steps, they walked onto the Rainbow Bridge one by one.
