Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

That is the entire world, revolving around him, just like the mist vortex gathered around him.

At this moment, Xavier seemed to have become the center of the plane.

Even though Wu Chang had never seen a Plane Son, looking at Xavier now, he could understand what a Plane Son is.

Xavier looked down on everyone, just like a god looking down on mortals.

A large amount of mist infused with steam rules flowed into his black robe, causing it to bulge out.

Rip~

Along with the sound of fabric tearing, a pair of giant black wings burst out from Xavier’s robe, appearing behind him.

Xavier’s wings, unlike Erin’s Angel Wings, were entirely made of steel, rough in appearance and sharp-edged.

The pitch-black steel wings had densely clustered holes that would overwhelm someone with trypophobia—each hole, a gun barrel.

Xavier flapped his wings, and dense steam spewed from the barrels, instantly swallowing Bai She Avenue in dense steam rules.

The Divine Tongue was horrified to discover that, within the steam spewed by Xavier, not to mention skills, even his Power of Root was harshly suppressed inside him, unable to be externalized as skills.

Not just the Divine Tongue, even Randy, the pinnacle of native combat strength, was equally restricted.

Among the present, only the few with Mechanical System abilities were not affected.

Wu Chang sniffed, sensing the mist permeating the air.

Xavier’s steam rules were so domineering, capable of even sealing a player’s Power of Root; the reason was singular, which was that Xavier’s Power of Rules had already evolved to contain divinity.

Feeling the divinity in the mist, Wu Chang found that even the nauseating air of Grimland smelled sweet now.

He really loved divinity.

Hovering above everyone, Xavier did not notice the change in Wu Chang’s demeanor, savoring the panic on the faces of the Transcendents below.

Still, Bai She Avenue is better. Here are all ant-like ordinary Transcendents, unlike the Gray Church Slums, hiding some bizarre presence inside.

The presence in there possessed power even he found inconceivable, seemingly segmenting the slum’s space from the world, becoming independent as a whole.

No matter how he fully mobilized the steam rules, he couldn’t invade there at all.

Facing the existence in the slums, he had no confidence in victory; the white flames they unleashed instilled fear in him, even when he gathered divinity.

If he entered the slum rashly and was isolated from the plane, he might die.

But as long as he didn’t enter the slums, as a Plane Son, supported by near-endless Power of Rules, he wasn’t necessarily afraid of them either.

Nonetheless, unless necessary, he didn’t want to provoke such a terrifying existence.

If he couldn’t defeat the slum monster, could he not handle ordinary Transcendents?

With this in mind, Xavier shifted his gaze from the slums back to Bai She Avenue, looking at Sean and Randy, and not far away, the Queen and Julie.

Rather than risking his life with the guys in the slums, he might as well take down these big shots first, seize Stilan, and then slowly deal with them.

Thinking this, he positioned himself above Bai She Avenue, ready to act.

Fear, tremble, this is his ability, and it is his mission.

The steel wings behind him slowly flapped as he opened his mouth, speaking in a cold mechanical voice:

"The future of the world belongs to industry, belongs to technology. You old-era Transcendents can exit now."

"Not only you, but the decayed institutions on this street should also be destroyed, and I will build a true Stilan Empire on their ruins, worthy of the world’s admiration."

As he spoke, countless holes within his steel wings began to flicker with dangerous light.

Being the one with the strongest Power of Root present, and barely able to withstand Xavier’s divinity, Randy could sense the terrifying power that Xavier was accumulating.

He grabbed the startled Raventon, and with another hand, gripped Wu Chang’s wrist, sprinting towards the Police Hall, shouting as he went:

"Find cover!"

In the next moment, countless beams of light erupted from Xavier’s wings, shooting towards the people below.

This move by Xavier was far trickier than the bullet rain used by theExecutioner; each attack he launched transformed into a crossbow arrow made of light, carrying the aura of steam explosive.

When the light arrows struck a building, they triggered huge explosions, and under the dense light arrows, Bai She Avenue seemed as if it had been bombarded by artillery.

The Parliament Building, Prime Minister’s Residence, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Internal Affairs, including the Police Hall where Wu Chang and others resided, all turned to ruins under the fierce bombardment.

Luckily it was late at night, and there were no casualties. Had it been daytime, the entire governmental framework of Stilan could have been rebuilt directly.

The light arrows Xavier shot out simulated Demon-Breaking Crossbow Arrows using steam rules and extraordinary energy. Besides the explosion of steam explosives, they contained the attack essence of Demon-Breaking Bullets and a divinity attack that was irresistible.

A few light arrows shattered doors and windows, shooting towards the crowd. Randy, relying on the robust physique of the Secret Magic Knight, tried to intercept, swinging his sword at the light arrows.

But just as the great sword in his hand made contact with the light arrow, it was shattered by the power within the light arrow. Moreover, the Demon-Breaking power, along with the divine power within the light arrow, traveled along the great sword into him before Randy could release it.
