Our Family Has Fallen

At this moment, she suddenly seemed to realize something, the scene that made her lose control back then!

But before she could react further, the tentacles in the middle of the black sphere started to wriggle and spread, and it wasn’t until the scene enlarged in front of her that she realized it was attacking her, trying to drag her into that terrifying despair.

The horrifying scene instantly made her lose control and fall into madness, her face twisted in reality, clutching tightly onto those two Sacred Objects, and the spiritual fluctuations bursting from her seemed unnaturally restless.

Even more terrifying was that the spirit seemed to be contaminated, carrying an indescribable eerie aura.

Peering into things far beyond her own power is a major taboo for a Transcendent, and this was what she warned Lance about; only, she didn’t expect it to come true for her, being dragged into that force...

At this point, her consciousness was already heavily damaged, shrouded by countless negative emotions, and she almost lost control of her body, as if something was trying to tear out from her flesh, fortunately suppressed by a ritual.

But do not forget where this place is, the Elders knew what problem she had in the past and still dared to give her two Sacred Objects, precisely because they could stand in the void rift; there were countless rituals and tools in the Observatory.

If Tamara hadn’t voluntarily reached out just now, she absolutely wouldn’t have been so easily affected, even though now that anomaly also activated those rituals.

Moreover, Tamara’s strength was not the same as in the past; the experience after escaping, although twisted her personality, also cultivated greater resilience, not to mention the two Sacred Objects were in her hands.

So, a very bizarre state occurred. Although Tamara was in madness, she still sat cross-legged in place, her grim face seemingly fighting against something.

Meanwhile, the aura on her became increasingly eerie, the clash of various forces even stirred turbulence in the room, a precursor to losing control for any Transcendent.

Until suddenly she opened her eyes, and the chaotic aura calmed down in an instant.

However, the state Tamara displayed now looks nothing like spiritual contamination, nor like being severely damaged. Instead, she had leveled up, stepping into the true Champion Rank.

One could only say she truly was a gambler, daring to use that unknown eerie power to break through in such a situation, but it also planted a hidden danger. Although nothing seemed wrong on the surface, the contamination wasn’t cleared, it even lingered around her.

Feeling her current situation, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

But in that situation, she didn’t have much choice. This is already the best result now.

The Champion had broken through, so there was no need to stay here, a way must be found to handle her problem.

Tamara didn’t rush to set out, instead, she adjusted her state to recover as much as possible, otherwise, those watching her wouldn’t be this simple.

Simultaneously, she frowned and pondered for a moment, just thinking about that anomaly made her terrified, what on earth happened in the real world?

Activating the ritual, she stepped out of the Observatory and was instantly transported back to the organization.

As expected, the situation where the ritual was triggered had already alarmed her teacher, a seemingly peaceful middle-aged woman, just her actual age was entirely unknown.

Honestly, there are too many methods in the Extraordinary World to slow aging, and her teacher was equally mysterious.

But upon seeing Tamara, she was somewhat surprised as well.

"You’ve already been promoted?"

"Yes, teacher." Tamara answered casually, but she was more concerned about what had happened, and asked, "What happened in the real world that interrupted my cultivation?"

Concerning this question, the Elder pondered for a moment, knowing that this matter was already widely known and there was no need to hide it, and thus spoke.

"The explosion of that power was in Hamlet."

"Hamlet?"

Upon hearing this, Tamara fell into a strange state, hard to say what it meant.

𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"That’s right, just like you thought. A large area of sky has now been covered with darkness, surpassing human abilities..."

The Elder wanted to say more, but Tamara suddenly spoke, very directly expressing her meaning.

"Do you still think he’s lying now?"

Tamara threw out a sentence that silenced the teacher. Of course, she knew what it meant; after all, during the negotiation back then, that Lord had already mentioned that this world was facing an apocalypse.

But similar rhetoric didn’t really matter to these Romani, because there were too many, every kind of odd evil cult said such things, all just to earn some capital.

But now, this phenomenon didn’t seem like anything human-made...

"I need to go to Hamlet."

Tamara didn’t waste words, directly stating her stance.

"We haven’t confirmed the situation in Hamlet yet, and it doesn’t look optimistic, it might even be the second great destruction of Hamlet."

"I returned back then precisely for this matter, and now it’s just fulfilling the agreement." Tamara appeared indifferent, yet brought up one matter, "Besides, no matter what happened over there, someone needs to confirm the situation in Hamlet, I suspect not many dare to go."

Back then, Lance’s reason for supporting Tamara was her talent; this was known to the Elders, moreover, who dares to go to such a dangerous place now?

"I need to discuss with the other Elders."

The Elder didn’t say much, leaving this sentence before departing.

Honestly speaking, their teacher-student relationship was quite delicate. Tamara stole the Sacred Object back then and she took the blame, now returning it can’t go back to the past.

After the teacher left, the state Tamara forcefully held together quickly declined, but she couldn’t care about these, her expression grew even more peculiar.

She was so eager to return, certainly not for those reasons, the real reason is she understood if Lance fell, those competitors or Elders knowing her problem absolutely wouldn’t waste resources on her, there might even be a repeat of the past.

The incident in Hamlet instead gave her a reason to leave here, only by going out could she control her own destiny.

This is self-rescue, and precisely the reason for her urgent drive.

As for the situation in Hamlet... she believed the man she fancied wouldn’t die so easily.

Even the Romani sensed the anomaly in Hamlet, and as long as the other supernatural organizations weren’t too foolish, they researched this.

The various factions would adjust their strategy toward Hamlet based on the current situation, but the benefit was that this shocked those guys into inaction, most were watching, not as proactively as Tamara.

Elsewhere, the Lord of Hamlet, who Tamara kept thinking of, also finally walked out from the dungeon.

Once born, twice familiar, anyway, Lance didn’t feel any difference, but for others, it was a problem.

It’s like suddenly returning to Earth from space, the strong difference impacted their rationality, and at the same time, caused various reactions in everyone’s body.

Baldwin was fine, with strong physique and will, for him, these circumstances at most changed his expression under the mask, but he could bear it.

But it was hard to say for others; anomalies began to appear, Junia also used the power of a saint to break through to Champion, but as soon as she came out, she showed signs of discomfort.

As for those trusted aides, it was even worse, their strength was pulled into the dungeon by Lance putting them in deep water completely, the intense environmental difference directly made them feel suffocated, breathing heavily without relief.

Lance couldn’t just watch them like this, so he extended a Bless to help alleviate their anomaly.

However, the will of these trusted aides was truly strong, only physical problems appeared, but their spirits showed no signs of collapse.

Regarding this, Lance was quite intrigued, Amanda was unsure, but Boudica was definitely loyal, her strength was higher than the trusted aides, yet upon exiting, she slacked off.

Loyalty doesn’t equal fanaticism; is this the power of faith?

But there was no time for much research, as one sentence from Baldwin brought him back.

"It’s getting dark."
