Chapter 2437: Chapter 2438: The Arrival of Polo Ye
"Itâs here?" Kanter and Sanders were both taken aback: "Whoâs here?"
Angel hesitated: "Phantom Spirit City?"
The Observer nodded: "A Second-class Citizen."
The Observer still didnât specify a name, even though Polo Ye, unlike the Deep Space, did not have a powerful ancestor. Nevertheless, the matters of Phantom Spirit City were far beyond Angelâs level, and knowing too much wasnât necessarily a good thing.
Angel: Second-class Citizen, seemingly only one tier higher than Mist Shadow. But judging by the Observerâs grave expression, it seemed its strength was not to be underestimated?
As Angel pondered, a vertical rift suddenly appeared in the clear night sky.
This rift didnât seem to be formed by some spell technique, but rather as if... torn open directly by some being from the outside.
The moment this thought emerged, initially just a fleeting notion, in the next second, Angel saw a pink tentacle reaching out from within the rift.
The instant the pink tentacle appeared, a massive pressure descended upon most of the sea area within the Mist Belt.
Where the pressure reached, everyone was immobilized, even Sanders and Kanter felt a profound sense of danger under this pressure once they left the range of their domain field.
Was this an unconscious pressure? Or a deliberately created one?
Sanders didnât know. If it were the latter, the newcomerâs strength was at least on par with Lord Monty or Lord Rhein. But if it were the former, then it was immeasurable, perhaps even beyond Legend!
Soon, a second pink tentacle also extended from the rift.
The two glossy pink tentacles appeared somewhat soft and showy at first glance, but soon, all who witnessed this scene had their impressions completely overturned.
The seemingly incredibly soft pink tentacles forcibly tore open the vertical space rift with sheer force.
This terrifying scene shocked everyone to the core.
Such power, even Sanders couldnât achieve; he had to be extremely cautious when dealing with space rifts, fearing to be pulled in and become dust under the Law.
Yet, the owner of those pink tentacles in mid-air actually extended them into the rift directly and tore it open! What terrifying might!
"Is this... Legend?" Nis muttered in a daze.
After a moment of silence, the Observer spoke:
"In some aspects, including combat strength, it indeed is comparable to Legend. But it hasnât reached that level; its ability to tear space is due to its trait."
Angel: "Trait? Is it some space characteristic?"
The Observer: "You could say that."
Everyone was enlightened, but even if it were due to space traits, the ability to tear space rifts was still terrifying. Moreover, the Observer personally admitted that the newcomerâs combat strength was on par with Legend, meaning that everyone present, except for the Observer, was no match for it.
Nis: "Is Phantom Spirit City this terrifying? A random one seems capable of annihilating the world..."
The Observer snorted, not responding.
Annihilating the world? Only a Wizard with little knowledge would say such things. To annihilate the world is not so simple; it requires contending with the will of the universe, something few can withstand.
However, if it were about destroying the primitive civilization of a Primordial World, there might be a chance. Not long ago, a Second-class Citizen from Phantom Spirit City accomplished this. Nonetheless, it also became a wanted target by the Orderly Guild, making it hard to leave Phantom Spirit City again.
As the Observerâs thoughts flowed, the rift in the sky was completely torn open, and a small, delicate pink figure leisurely stepped out from it.
The moment it stepped out, the pressure reached an unprecedented level.
In the areas covered by the pressure, almost all forms of life experienced moments of stillness. Only Angelâs side, due to the distorted Domain Field around the Observer and Angelâs domain field, was not significantly affected.
In the distance, near the laboratory.
Standing on Shizâs corpse, 01, wearing a half-face mask, trembled under the pressure. But he bravely endured, raised his head, and stared directly at the rift in the sky.
He knew the pursuers from Phantom Spirit City had arrived.
This dreadful pressure clearly told him that with his abilities, he absolutely couldnât contend against it.
But it no longer mattered.
He had killed Shiz, and that was enough.
He was already at the end of his road, and to play a mocking elegy of Phantom Spirit City at his end, heâd done his utmost.
To him, death no longer mattered. Moreover, death wasnât necessarily the end... That moment was approaching fast.
displayed a somewhat manic expression, looking at the small figure in the sky that was hard to discern, laughing loudly, as if taunting.
In the sky, Polo Ye also spotted 01 and the corpse of Shiz at his feet.
Its sapphire-like eyes flashed with a hint of shadow.
But not long after, it seemed to realize something, and the gemstone pupils regained their bright luster. Then, it slowly shifted its gaze to 01.
"A self-conceited performance, shyo ro shyo ro, foolish human." Polo Ye sneered with a soft voice.
Withdrawing its gaze, Polo Ye no longer paid attention to the immobilized, pressure-shocked 01 below. Instead, it stretched its form, stepping through the air with its eight tentacles, generating bubbles as it flew in another direction.
was stunned. Wasnât the pursuer from Phantom Spirit City supposed to kill him? Why was it leaving?
Soon, 01 realized that the newcomer wasnât leaving; the pressure still remained. Instead, it seemed to be heading to another place.
In that direction... was where 03 was located!
...
Angel and the others hadnât expected that the Second-class Citizen from Phantom Spirit City would come to them instead of going to the laboratory side.
Observing up close, they finally saw the newcomerâs appearance clearly.
Unlike the ferocious magical creature Angel imagined, this Second-class Citizen was a fairy-tale-styled pink octopus.
Its delicate appearance, dreamy color scheme, and sapphire-esque, angular eyes not only didnât exude much of a threat but seemed quite adorable.
Of course, Angel also understood that the cuteness might just be one of its disguises.
The immense pressure, coupled with the Observersâ solemn expressions, all indicate its terrifying nature.
"Observer, we meet again, Shula~" A baby-like soft voice emerged from the mouth of a pink octopus.
The Observer snorted coldly, unwilling to speak.
Yet it insisted, "Are you ignoring me because you look down on me, Shula?"
"Polo Ye, whether youâre pretending to be ignorant or just being difficult, Iâve made it clear before. Since youâve come to the Southern Domain, youâd better follow the rules, or else..." The Observer sneered and stopped speaking.
"Shula shula, not only do you look down on me, but you also threaten me! Iâll inform the Lord of the City, and then heâll surely make your skull into a wine glass!" Polo Yeâs malicious words sounded almost playful.
"Do as you please; if you overstep, I donât care who you are, I will fulfill my duty."
"How will you fulfill it, Shula? Record my actions, send them to the Orderly Guild, have everyone condemn me? Or do you plan to fight me?"
The Observer glanced at Polo Ye with curiosity, feeling something amiss, sensing Polo Ye appeared more lucid than before in the Void.
Perhaps it was just his illusion?
"What I do depends on how far you go. If you merely target your mission objective, I wonât interfere, but if you cross the line, Iâll assess based on your actions."
Polo Ye smiled slyly, "What constitutes crossing the line? To what extent must I go for you to act against me?"
The Observer remained silent.
At this moment, Polo Ye turned to Sanders and the others: "If I kill them, will you intervene?"
Everyoneâs expressions changed, while the Observer frowned but still said nothing.
Polo Ye was merely probing, naturally not intending to kill Sanders; he had no interest in these minor figures... However, just as he was about to shift his gaze, the City Lord suddenly spoke in his mind: "That little guy seems interesting."
Little guy? Polo Ye paused, following the City Lordâs guidance to look at someone.
It was a Wizard who had used a Shapeshifting Technique; despite the technique making him appear worn, Polo Ye immediately saw through the core as merely a child under twenty.
For beings with long lifespans, twenty truly is just a "child."
"The green Pattern surrounding him, and the Domain Field constructed by it, are quite fascinating. It seems to be the power originating from that world," the City Lord said softly in Polo Yeâs mind.
That world! A flash of fear crossed Polo Yeâs eyes but was quickly concealed: "Is he related to that world? Should we capture him?"
City Lord: "No need. I received some information from the Orderly Guild previously; the Southern Domain has been touched by that world in many places, so the appearance of a Power System here is normal. Perhaps heâs just a lucky one who encountered some opportunity."
Polo Ye thought: "In that case, after finishing the target, itâs worth investigating."
"Wait until you complete your mission," the City Lord smiled, saying no more.
The dialogue between Polo Ye and the City Lord remained unbeknownst to outsiders, including the Observer. Had the Observer known Gluz Deward sent a Divine Thought here, he wouldnât remain calmly.
Polo Ye stared intently at Angel for several seconds, making others feel something was amiss, even Angel felt a bit fearful... concerned Toby might be exposed?
Sanders and Nis exchanged glances; if Polo Ye truly became interested in Angel, theyâd have to prepare to take Angel and escape.
Angel was crucial for the Illusion Demon Island and Barbarian Cave, absolutely unable to encounter any mishaps here.
Fortunately, Polo Ye ultimately said nothing further, shifting his gaze away from Angel.
"Shula, killing these people seems not to move you. But what about it?" Polo Ye turned his gaze to 03 in the distance.
Upon arriving in the Southern Domain, he detected a chaotic fluctuation, hence he left 01 and came to the Observer. His purpose wasnât chitchat, but merely a desire for the Mysterious Object.
This is also Gluz Dewardâs intention.
For beings like them who possess Extraordinary Life, no one despises Mysterious Objects, even if some arenât suitable for living creatures and might hold great fear, they canât stop their yearning for Mysterious Objects. Unable to use them, they become subjects for study; once they encounter a compatible one, the impact is extraordinary, instantly enhancing their foundation. Gluz Dewardâs rise is attributed to a Mysterious Objectâthe Growth Ray on the Isle of Crystal Night.
Therefore, Polo Ye couldnât ignore the Mysterious Fruit atop 03.
The Observer took a deep look at Polo Ye, seemingly understanding his intent: "Youâve come over, and your target isnât me, itâs it, isnât it?"
"Shula."
The Observer contemplated before speaking: "Before it completely goes chaotic, if you can obtain it without violating the Southern Domainâs rules, I wonât stop you."
"What if it becomes chaotic?"
The Observer answered calmly: "If youâre still alive, you can still take it away."
Polo Ye was momentarily stunned, then two seconds later burst into laughter: "How could I die?"
The Observer didnât reply, simply observing Polo Ye in silence. Regarding the Mysterious Objectâs ownership, he had no strong opinions. If Polo Ye could truly take it away, let him have it.
However, Mysterious Objects arenât easily obtained.
Upon discovering a chaotic Mysterious Object, Mystic Hunters often spend months, years, or even decades observing, summarizing the objectâs patterns before daring to act.
Polo Ye lacked preparation, his chances of obtaining a chaotic Mysterious Object were slim.
Of course, if youâre highly compatible, it might be possible to quickly obtain it, but itâs rare. Typically, regular Mysterious Objects are few, half-chaotic and truly chaotic ones are rarer.
"If you want to get it, now you may proceed; I wonât stop you," the Observer remarked.
Polo Ye didnât move; he came to confirm whether the Observer would intervene, and since he wouldnât, Polo Ye would naturally strategize to obtain it.
Additionally, heâs not impulsive, with the City Lordâs Divine Thought within him, heâs keenly aware of the dangers of chaotic Mysterious Objects. Before acquiring one, understanding its effects is crucial.
Though difficult for him to estimate, the City Lord can. Acquiring a Mysterious Object isnât instantaneous and requires some time.
Thereâs no rush, so settle 01 first.
After all, 01 is his true objective this time.
Furthermore, aware of 01âs schemes thanks to the City Lordâs hint, he surely wonât let time slip by, providing 01 a chance for survival.
After resolving 01âs issue, acquiring the Mysterious Object wonât be late.
Upon this consideration, Polo Ye said no more to the Observer, uttering "Shula shula," he then departed, heading toward the laboratory.
