As long as they attack the other person, those two will realize that their previous attacks on them were not out of malice, but were pure mistakes. "call--" The purple-black fireball flew straight out, crossed a distance of several hundred meters in an instant, and hit the man in black armor. "Boom!" The black-armored man was immediately engulfed by the blooming deep purple flames, but the next second, a bright red light suddenly burst out and instantly tore the purple flames apart. "what?!" The "Secret Saint" Fasti was shocked. He couldn't believe that a mere psychic warrior could survive his attack. While he was astonished, a man in black armor walked out step by step from a bright and dazzling red light. His whole body armor, which was tightly fitted and simple in shape, had no damage at all. Orange-red flames surrounded the man, and a layer of crimson faintly appeared on the surface of the armor. The man in black armor slowly turned his neck and faced the "Secret Saint" Fasti with his airtight mask that had no observation holes.
The latter felt for no reason that he was being stared at. Fasti reacted immediately. Without waiting for the man in black armor to make any move, he raised his hand and threw a heavy punch in the air. "Crack!" A crack suddenly appeared in the space, and the inside was dark, twisted, weird, and blurred, as if countless horrible and deformed creatures were lurking in it. Without thinking, he turned around and went in, disappearing in the terrifying and strange distorted colors. Then the abrupt crack healed quickly and disappeared. Seeing the other party fleeing, the man in black armor withdrew his gaze and seemed to have no intention of pursuing him. "Who are you?" The emerald green vines growing all over the black island suddenly uttered an old male voice: "What's your purpose for appearing here?" After the "Secret Saint" Fasti left, "Punisher" Victor started fighting with the gray-black monsters again. The aftermath of the battle made the entire island shaky. In response to Victor's questioning, the man in black armor did not say a word, but continued to walk towards the island on the boiling and rolling water. "boom!" When he was only ten meters away from the island, the flames surrounding the black-armored man suddenly grew stronger and completely enveloped him. The whole person seemed to have turned into flames and rushed towards the island at an extremely fast speed! The target is the gray-black monster that is tearing and crushing the vines on its body! "Oh!" One gray and one orange, one big and one small, the two collided violently, and the scattered flames and red light almost covered the entire island, causing a big hole in the clouds floating in the sky. The emerald green vines quickly retracted and condensed into Victor's human form in the air outside the island. "Who is this person?" Seeing that the other party's target was not him but his enemy, he eased his hostility towards that guy a little, but he couldn't help feeling confused in his heart.
To him, everything that happened today was too weird! He did not withdraw his maintenance of the black island on the sea, but he did not help the man in black armor either. Instead, he floated not far away and watched the fight between the two sides. "...A magic fighter? A magic fighter that is a psychic warrior and a magician?!" After observing the black-armored man's fighting style for a while, Victor's expression froze: "Yes, is it that guy from Moon Watching Valley? Does he really exist?" Orange-red flames and scarlet light raged on the not-so-big black island, burning the deformed body composed of countless gray-black tentacles. "… Never mind. I'll just help you out." After watching for a while, Victor decided to join forces with the man in black armor to deal with the out-of-control monster first. His robe fluttered, and his body was about to disintegrate into vines. Suddenly I noticed that there was something strange about the sea level in the north. "Who is it again?!" The eyelids of this highly respected, powerful and knowledgeable metallurgist from the "Earth" realm twitched slightly and the corners of his mouth twitched. As he watched, three crimson spots of light gradually emerged on the northern sea level. Getting closer and brighter. Soon, the three crimson spots of light came into his field of vision. There were three figures. A figure with flawless fair skin, a slender and tall figure, and cold and arrogant eyes. A figure wearing a black double-breasted coat, a half-high silk hat, a stiff-collared white shirt and a dark patterned vest, straight-leg trousers, and shiny black hard leather shoes. They were surrounded by a strange crimson glow, and they were moving at an extremely fast speed across the sea surface that was gradually sinking into darkness, approaching silently. No words, no speech, no expression on his face. But it reveals a sense of oppression that has become extremely solid and condensed. "This is……!" The moment the other person's figure came into view, Victor's pupils suddenly shrank, as if he thought of something, and fell into great shock. "The Spirit Race..." In a state of near-stupor of horror, this "number one person below the Godhead", "one of the strongest in Sunset Harbor", "the agent", and "the punisher" moved his lips and trembled, uttering a series of words in disbelief: "The Moon Spirit Republic... "The ruler of the old days... “One of the three pillars…
“The Holy Relic Asylum… "Moonlight Goddess... "Red Moon..." [End of Volume 2: The Melting Sea at Dusk] ========================= I forgot to mention that there are three updates today, and there will be another chapter later. The second volume has come to an end. Before the official update, there will be a free single chapter, which is a summary, reflection and partial planning for the next volume. If you are interested, you can take a look. Summary and reflections on Volume 2 After about a month and a half of serialization, the second volume "The Melting Sea at Dusk" finally ended normally. How should I put it? The overall outline of this volume is still basically based on the original outline. Although there are some deviations, they are basically harmless improvisations. I still feel somewhat conflicted about the quality of this volume. First, let me talk about the part that I am personally satisfied with, which is the "structure". Compared with the first volume, the structure of this volume is relatively complete. By the end, the main contradiction that permeates the entire volume is released, the core conflict is resolved, and the more important foreshadowing and suspense are basically recovered. With the experience of the first volume, I shamelessly believe that this volume has made some progress in structure. Next, here’s what I’m not satisfied with. That's "rhythm". Regarding this point, I believe that the readers who have been following the book all the way have some understanding of it. In early October, due to writer's block and poor condition, for quite a long period of time, not only were the updates very unstable, the pace of plot development was also extremely slow, and the amount of water injection was huge. I have read all your complaints and feedback. I will not make any excuses for this because this is the fact and there is nothing to explain. What you see is the real situation. The precipitous decline in subscriptions, royalties, and collections in October also proves your judgment. If the pace were normal and reasonable, the second volume should be cut by about ten chapters. In short, since the mistake has already happened, all we can do is correct and make up for it. In the following sections, I will put more attention on plot advancement and character creation rather than dry setting explanations. After all, in my creative concept, novels are essentially stories. All settings, creativity, ideas, and thoughts are for the purpose of "carving out a story that is attractive enough and interesting enough", which is the cornerstone of the novel. We also welcome you to continue to provide feedback and suggestions during this period. No matter what your ideas are, I will accept them all and make improvements if necessary. There is nothing much to say. Improving quality and stabilizing updates are more effective than thousands of arguments. The first chapter of the third volume will be updated before ten o'clock. The main stage of this volume is the academy map, but compared to the conventional academy flow, I thought of another narrative method. On the premise that the main background is the academy, the protagonist can also take into account other, extremely distant, and new story developments. It is an alternative dual-line narrative. This writing style, which I have never practiced before, is not only a challenge to my personal abilities, but also an attempt and experiment to some extent. Moreover, the protagonist is neither a student nor a tutor, nor a school leader... Well, you can guess what it is. In the third volume, the structure, setting, history of this world, as well as the life experience, origin, and past of the protagonist will be explained and revealed to a certain extent.
I have basically thought of the overall plot of this volume and the plot hook at the end of the volume that will lead into the plot of the fourth volume. It can be said that this is the volume with the most complete outline so far. I don’t know if I can write it well, and I don’t know if you readers will be satisfied after I finish writing it. After all, I am just a newcomer who is trying to write online articles for the first time. I have considerable deficiencies in writing skills, awareness and vision. Apart from relying on personal intuition and investigation, and then exploring and correcting little by little, there should be no more effective way, right? Maybe, but given my mediocre talent and qualifications, perhaps the stupid method will be more effective. Well, without further ado, here are the closing remarks for this volume. Thank you all readers for your company and support over the past four months! In about an hour, we’ll see you in the third volume, “The Darkness When Clouds Cover the Sun”! The sky is dark with clouds covering the sun Chapter 229: Open a new map~~ In the simple hotel room, Qi Ji sat on the edge of the bed, one hand on the bed, and the other hand with five fingers spread out, suspended in front of his eyes. She lowered her head slightly, and stared at her delicate white palms with deep and unfathomable eyes. The clear and tranquil light blue moonlight of the "Azure Moon" shone in through the narrow window and sprinkled in the unlit private room. Together with that absolutely beautiful and flawless girl, they formed a perfect picture. The silence and tranquility lasted for who knows how long. Even the angle of the moonlight has changed significantly... Qi Ji suddenly had an idea. The small and delicate palm quickly emerged with brilliant colors, condensing into a "aggregate of light balls behind the stars." Qi Ji stared at this "map of stars" and slowly uttered a word: "The Ninth Authority: Panacea." As she finished her words, the pattern on her palm suddenly changed dramatically, with the color and outline changing drastically. It was transformed into the holy emblem of the "Setting Sun Spiritual Society", the "Attendant of the Dusk" with a profound and timeless artistic conception. Qi Ji whispered the second word: "The Third Authority: Wandering Mist." The pattern on the palm changed again, this time it was a huge golden ship breaking through the waves on the ocean of books: the holy emblem of the "Enterprise Chamber of Commerce", "The Ship of Progress". The girl stared down and uttered the third word: "The fourth authority: the distant star." The next pattern that appears is "a raised left hand with a bright sun in the palm" - the holy emblem of the "Church of Grace" "The Left Hand of the Law". Bathed in the quiet, cool, blue moonlight, the air was filled with the dreamy whispers of a beautiful black-haired girl:
"The eleventh authority: Dawn." Next, there is the holy emblem of the "Harvest Church", "The Tree of All Things", which depicts "a huge, lush tree growing on a rocky mountain, surrounded by ears of wheat." "The Twelfth Authority: The Ideal Country." Finally, the color in Qi Ji's palm suddenly darkened and turned into a velvety black.
