Chapter 1397 - 446: Outer God · Lord of Concealment
Wen Xishu has indeed awakened.
Just as the old headmaster Albert left, he woke up.
Upon seeing the doctor, he smiled and said:
"Thank you all for your concern, how long was I in a coma? What happened during this time?"
Doctor Yang Yue quickly replied.
Only then did Wen Xishu realize that this was actually a sanatorium.
He was also surprised that the legendary female hunter could actually leave the Destruction God’s power within him.
During his journey within the entity named "001," Wen Xishu came to know of an Outer God called Destruction God.
Currently, he knows of two Outer Gods, one is the Destruction God, possessing a terrifying destructive power, perhaps comparable to Leo Leon.
The second Outer God is the "Merchant."
Wen Xishu is unsure of what this being’s abilities are, but he is certain that the forces behind Hunter City are Outer Gods.
The Power of Destruction from the Destruction God even destroys rules; Wen Xishu nearly died from it, leaving him somewhat fearful.
"I wonder if Tower Power Value could launch a bullet screen, shouting ’Don’t die’... Can it counteract this power?"
He could not verify it at this moment.
After learning that the old headmaster transferred the Power of Destruction to save him, his heart warmed.
"Where is Almi?" Wen Xishu asked.
"Almi? Who is he?" Yang Yue was puzzled.
Wen Xishu said:
"Now that the Destruction God’s power within me has been removed, please, doctor, gather everyone at Deceit Tower Academy, at my private residence."
Yang Yue inquired:
"When you say everyone, you mean..."
Wen Xishu decisively replied, "The top hundred from the Celestial Ladder List in Desire Tower."
...
...
Time is pressing.
Wen Xishu knows that the timeline he is in is the past...
But Sagittarius’s timeline is the future.
The Heart of Fusion bonds Wen Xishu’s destiny with that of Sagittarius. The Power of Destiny is not to be underestimated.
As the leading entity, the "trend" of the destiny trajectory Wen Xishu encounters will affect Sagittarius.
There are many life and death tribulations during the climb of Deceit Tower, but once the climb is finished, they are dispelled. Moreover, in some sense, he has quite some assurance within Deceit Tower.
Yet not long ago, the life and death tribulation he encountered happened in the bunker.
So Wen Xishu speculated that Sagittarius might encounter similar tribulations.
The fact turned out to be true.
During his coma, Wen Xishu dreamt of it.
He saw a mysterious guy, in the same frequency space as Sagittarius.
The two had an unfair showdown.
Lack of intelligence led to Sagittarius having combat power but unable to deploy it.
Sagittarius is strong, yet could not defeat the shadow.
In the dream, Wen Xishu spied on the array shot from the shadow.
He also heard some dialogue.
Combining the array’s pattern, Wen Xishu speculated that this shadow is the third Outer God.
He decided to call him the Concealment Lord.
The outer area of the array pattern is the covered eyes, which implies unobservability.
The center of the array is a labyrinth, with chaotic footsteps, which implies untraceability.
The eye position of the array is a swirl, symbolizing mystery and obscurity.
Sagittarius’s arrow can shatter space. Even if hidden in the Other Dimension, it can shoot through with one arrow.
With an arrow of the Power of Cause and Effect, it would chase you to the ends of the earth.
But he cannot hit the target, hence Wen Xishu speculated—
This person evades by relying on rules.
Combining the words from the shadow, Wen Xishu boldly speculated: As long as the Concealment Lord’s name is unknown, as long as its identity remains a mystery, as long as its information remains undisclosed to its enemies...
Then it is invincible.
So it must kill Sagittarius; thus it says, Sagittarius has breached its first layer of defense.
Because Sagittarius saw it. Even if it was just a shadow.
But that makes it from completely unknown, possibly nonexistent, to "existing, but very mysterious."
It’s very likely this Concealment Lord is someone orchestrating from the shadows.
As long as it’s not known by anyone, it remains invincible.
Only by being "known" can it be truly hit.
With this kind of power, its natural course is... to hide behind the scenes, laying low, ensuring no one digs up its past.
Revealing nothing of its existence.
In this way, no one in the world can attack it.
This ability is indeed heaven-defying, Wen Xishu really wants to tell Sagittarius.
But suffers from the lack of means.
After all—
At this moment, Sagittarius is still striving to break free from the predicament.
"I have been saved... Hope you escape danger as well."
Wen Xishu prayed.
He has been moved to his residence.
His injuries began to heal swiftly, yet the weakness after releasing the Profound Meaning couldn’t be instantly erased.
However, Wen Xishu is confident that, after resting for a few days, he will return to his peak condition, just unable to unleash the Profound Meaning.
But he is not in a hurry.
Soon, one after another, the elites from the Celestial Ladder List of Desire Tower gathered at Wen Xishu’s residence.
There are more than fifty people in Wen Xishu’s residence now, extremely bustling.
Wen Xishu created furniture on-site, writing rows of sofas and seats with a pen, leaving everyone astounded.
But remembering that this is Wen Xishu, the legend of the bunkers, remembering he climbs Deceit Tower, yet stronger than the strongest batch in Slaughter Tower...
They feel that there’s nothing strange, this person is akin to cheating, any miracle can manifest.
Once everyone is seated, William Hawker from the William Family surprisingly is present, and he said:
"Go ahead, what do you want to say to us?"
