Gate of Apocalypse

"You don't seem to be as strong as before, Tian Lie." The man known as Dimitri glanced at Tian Lie and slowly descended from the upper floor, as if an invisible palm was holding him up.

"Deacon ...... Deacon ......"

Shamash turned his head to look at Dimitri, his eyes revealed a deeper fear than when he saw Chen Xiaolian.

"I don't seem to have granted you the power to surrender, do I, Shamash? What do you have to tell me about this that is worth telling me?"

"Yes ...... sorry, Deacon, I ......"

Even though Shamash was still being carried in Chen Xiaolian's hand, he was still busy apologizing to Dimitri.

"So Ming Ming is here, before also hiding his head with cannon fodder to top things off." Chen Xiaolian casually threw away Shamash and looked at Dimitri: "I have to say sorry to Tian Lie, I shouldn't have said that about him before. It seems that it's not that he's not intimidating enough, but that you're too intimidating, isn't it? Hey, this guy is quite powerful?"

His last words were asked to Tian Lie.

"It's quite powerful." Tian Lie coldly hummed and nodded, "This guy ...... used to be a patroller of the Thorn Blossom Regiment as well."

"Also?" Chen Xiaolian was stunned: "Aren't you the only one of the Patrollers ......?"

"Didn't I tell you that? Except for the leader, all other members, regardless of their original positions, whether they are Awakened or players, will be promoted to Patroller once they have risen to the S-rank level." Tian Lie rolled his eyes, "How else do you think that the Thorn Blossom Regiment became the largest team among the players and was able to counteract so many resident teams in Zero City by itself?"

"I hadn't thought about this question before." Chen Xiaolian smiled: "But indeed, it is reasonable to say that there are seven resident teams in Zero City, each resident team has an S-class sitting, then the Thorn Blossom group, how there must be another three or five S-class right. So this guy, how does he compare to you?"

Tian Lie coldly snorted and didn't say anything.

"Alright, I get it." Chen Xiaolian shrugged, "No wonder the European zone is so strong, so there's a guy in there who's even stronger than you."

He took another glance at the other Awakened around him. Immediately after Dimitri appeared, they took a few steps back and stood with their hands hanging in awe.

It was obvious that this guy named Dimitri was usually very strict in his royalty.

He remembered what Adric had said to himself earlier, that one of the seven regions of the Starfall Battle Team was an S-ranked expert.

Then it seemed obvious that it was this Dimitri.

"You want the ...... Phoenix, don't you?" Dimitri held his hands behind his back, his gaze piercing Chen Xiaolian as sharply as a sword from under his large brimmed hat, "I can give it to you, if you are willing to join us. Not only that, I can also exempt you from being held accountable for the actions you have done to my team members."

"You're really ...... quite good at talking." Chen Xiaolian laughed: "Just now we two but killed several of your team members, this can be not pursued?"

"The strength is weak, who can be blamed? Besides, after joining, you are teammates." Dimitri's expression remained cold: "You see, I'm lenient, right?"

After saying that, Dimitri raised his hand backwards, and a wave of light flew out from his palm and blasted at a window on the third floor behind him.

An entire wall was blasted away, revealing the room behind it.

Inside the wall that was blown away was a dense row of bars, like a prison cell.

The phoenix, with shackles on all her limbs, sat on a bed of hard stone slabs. Surprised, he looked at Chen Xiaolian.

"With my status and strength, I'm not so much as to lie to you." Dimitri saw Chen Xiaolian's move to confirm his target and coldly said, "Hurry up and tell me your answer."

"It's better to be safe. Who knows what kind of person you are." Chen Xiaolian smiled and landed back on the ground: "Tian Lie, tell me how this guy's nature is."

"I can only say this -" Tian Lie stifled a grunt: "I may be the one who beats up the other members of the Thorn Blossom group the most, but this guy ...... is the one who kills teammates the most. Whether it is when leading the team, or after the promotion to inspector. I well, look at people disagreeable, usually the most is to break a few bones even, but he ...... as long as the hand, basically no one can still survive. The whole team can suppress him, only a tatsu. But by the way - he does seem to not like to lie. It should indeed be the Phoenix up there right."

"So, he can't use it?" Chen Xiaolian nodded and suddenly turned his head to look at Tian Lie again and said with a straight face, "Hey, you wouldn't be deliberately trying to take him out by my hand because you don't like him, right?"

"Put your ass on the line!" Tian Lie fiercely glared at Chen Xiaolian.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! Just kidding!" Chen Xiaolian laughed and turned his head back again, spreading his hands to Dimitri: "Look, Tian Lie has already said that you're not good at it. Then, I can only say I'm sorry."

"Do you have the qualifications to be sorry?"

Dimitri looked at Chen Xiaolian, his originally cold as ice face suddenly twisted and dyed with a full killing evil aura: "The one who should be sorry, is me!"

As his words fell, his right hand waved forward, throwing out a thick oil barrel wave of light, trailing a long tail, flying towards Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian did not dodge, allowing the light wave to hit his body, erupting into a huge ball of light.

And at the same time Dimitri flung the light wave, he also a dodge, appeared behind Chen Xiaolian.

He certainly did not expect a single light wave to be able to finish Chen Xiaolian.

While Shamash and the others were fighting, Dimitri had been secretly observing. The conclusion was obvious that this enemy was also S-ranked, even stronger than Tian Lie.

But - Dimitri did not believe that he would be stronger than himself!

Dodging behind Chen Xiaolian, a huge scythe had appeared in Dimitri's palm.

S-rank divine weapon, Kronos' Abyssal Scythe!

In Greek mythology, it was crafted by Gaia, the mother of the earth, and used by Kronos, the king of the Titans, to castrate his father, Uranus, as a divine weapon!

That light wave was just to pull out an opening for himself. The Abyssal Scythe, is Kronos' strongest killer weapon.

Purely in terms of personal strength, Dimitri may not be much stronger than Tian Lie. But with this scythe, let him sit in the thorny flower group, the second person below Tatsu!

The scythe swung out, exactly at the same moment as the light wave burst out. In the space where the scythe's blade crossed, all the energy from the explosion seemed to be attracted towards the blade.

At the same time disappeared, there is the blade crossed part of the space.

As long as the knife crossed, everything in the path, whether it is matter or energy, will completely disappear.

Time seems to be frozen, only the pure black scythe in a continuous wave, a moment will be swung at the same time dozens of knives, and the direction of each knife are different angles.

When Dimitri retracted the scythe, the exploding ball of light also just disappeared.

What remained in space was only a dense, spider web-like spatial rift.

"Shatter it!"

Dimitri lowered his scythe and looked coldly at Chen Xiaolian in front of him.

Those spatial rifts had completely covered his body.

Next, the shattered space would recover again, while Chen Xiaolian's flesh would not recover along with it.

This was an attack that exempted all defenses!

Closing!

The spider web-like spatial rift disappeared without a trace. However, Chen Xiaolian did not fall to the ground in pieces, as Dimitri had seen countless times before.

He still stood, and stood firmly, as if nothing had just happened.

In his body, I do not know when has been enveloped in a set of metal armor covering the whole body. Behind the armor, there was also a pair of long feathered wings stretched out.

"Quite powerful. But this move, you must use that scythe in your hand to be able to use it, right?"

Chen Xiaolian turned around and gazed at the Abyssal Scythe in Dimitri's hand: "A prop produced by the system can actually have such strong abilities, I didn't expect that."

Dimitri's eyes flinched, and he fiercely stepped backwards, not bothering to listen to what Chen Xiaolian had to say, his hands once again gripped the scythe hilt.

Damn, this guy ...... shouldn't be as strong as Chief Chen!

Must - out full force!

A black light emerged from the scythe hilt, forming a huge black ball of light, enveloping Dimitri all in it.

Chen Xiaolian did not pursue, just remained standing in place and shook his head: "You know what? I have seen a guy, her moves and you are very similar. But - she doesn't need to use any system props."

After the black ball of light was generated, it began to rotate, and it continued to speed up.

"You guys--"

Chen Xiaolian stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, drawing the attention of all the Awakened who were still watching around: "See clearly how your leader was killed, then get ready to join the new team.

Because from tomorrow, the reborn Zero City will once again become a holy place for all Awakened Ones!"

Zero City?!

These two words from Chen Xiaolian exploded in everyone's heart.

It also included Dimitri.

The rotation of the light ball finally reached its limit, and it seemed to leave Dimitri's body slowly but fast, flying towards Chen Xiaolian.

The release of this black ball of light, Dimitri also nearly deflated and sat down on the ground. The full force of this blow had exhausted all his strength.

But this blow as long as it is completed, it will ...... definitely be able to kill this guy!

With the help of the Abyssal Scythe, the ball of light has locked the relative position and distance between and Chen Xiaolian. From the moment it was shot, no matter how the enemy escaped and dodged, it was absolutely impossible to escape the range of the ball of light.

And this time the space devouring will completely annihilate the opponent to the point where not even a single hair remains!

"As I said, I'm sorry." Looking at the flying black ball of light, but Chen Xiaolian only had a faint smile on his face, "But having you around is a big problem for New Zero City. So I decided - I can't have you."

As he spoke, there was already an additional longbow in his hand.

The bowstring was drawn and a chakra appeared above the bowstring, which then quickly began to coalesce until it became a volumeless mass.

Then - let go!

Unlike Dimitri, Chen Xiaolian just lightly shot this arrow.

But when the plasmoid hit the black ball of light, it seemed like a black hole, absorbing the entire ball of light into itself without leaving the slightest trace.

Swallowed the black ball of light, the speed of flight of the mass is still not half slowed down, the direction did not change in the slightest, straight into the Dimitri's body.

Dimitri at this point, only just propped up on the ground trying to stand up.

"You ......"

Dimitri's eyes widened, but only uttered one word, and the whole person suddenly froze.

His expression was one of utter disbelief.

In the next second, he turned into a streak of dust and scattered all over the ground.
