Miss Luo Yan’s Feet Are Buried With Corpses v3c98

Witch’s Night: Chapter 98 You Shouldn’t Have Come Back

Humans didn’t understand the Gods.

Even the Gods who had fallen and become Primordial Demons.

Even the Witch of Absolute Death, the only one to descend upon the present world in her true form.

The War of the Witch of Absolute Death hundreds of years ago was humanity’s only experience directly facing a God, but because of the Gods, everyone was forced to erase all memories of the Witch of Absolute Death.

Marytis was no exception. Only the Absolute Death mark on her chest reminded her that the Witch of Absolute Death had once made a contract with her.

In other words, no one truly knew the Witch of Absolute Death’s personality.

But the Witch of Absolute Death’s record was terrifying. Even excluding the Church of the End Gods, who participated in the War of the Witch of Absolute Death, she alone caused the fall of more than half of humanity’s top experts.

Only three of the Twelve Saints survived, only the City Lord’s lineage remained among Dragon City’s higher-ups, and countless “Peril” level ability users were buried in Old Noah, becoming one with the ever-present contamination.

Therefore, everyone naturally assumed that the Witch of Absolute Death should be tyrannical, cruel, fitting humanity’s inherent impression of a Primordial Demon.

However…

If that were truly the case, how could the Witch of Absolute Death confine Herself in the white temple for hundreds of years?

Marytis stared blankly at the Witch of Absolute Death before her, a hint of gentleness in her appearance, identical to Miss Luo Yan’s.

Although there was still a big difference from Miss Luo Yan, the current Witch of Absolute Death did look like Miss Luo Yan’s twin sister.

Indeed, the War of the Witch of Absolute Death was started by the Witch of Absolute Death, and she did personally kill countless human experts, almost single-handedly destroying the most glorious era of humanity’s New Era.

But all this was because they stood in the Witch of Absolute Death’s way.

The current Witch of Absolute Death was in a mortal body, but she wasn’t human. To her, humans were no different from ants.

During her long search before, she hadn’t deliberately killed any ants, until the ants blocked her path to finding the white flower.

…Then she acted, eliminating these ants blocking her way.

That was all.

All along, the only thing the Witch of Absolute Death cared about was the white flower. Everything else… in the Witch of Absolute Death’s eyes, was no different from inanimate objects.

“Thump… thump… thump…”

She could already feel it.

Their heartbeats resonated.

The Witch of Absolute Death looked up towards the window of the white temple, at the towering, snow-covered Holy Mountain, and a silver-white figure seemed to be reflected in her deep eyes.

“How… could this be?” The Witch of Sorrow’s shocked voice sounded in Marytis’s ear. “The Witch of Absolute Death… how could she use our powers?!”

“What?”

Marytis finally came back to her senses. She saw the Witch of Absolute Death holding the guide cane, gradually mastering the powers of the Gods.

The “Sands of Time,” “Never Parting from Dreams,” the “Eyes of Fear and Envy,” “Return to the Past”… and so on. The offerings of the Gods appeared one by one on the dark-haired girl, but all these should have appeared on Miss Luo Yan.

The powers of the Gods weren’t compatible, let alone able to coexist; this was a well-known fact.

Although Luo Yan’s appearance broke this fact, she herself had even more outrageous abilities, such as personally traversing the Void, so this special characteristic wasn’t that surprising.

But… how could the Witch of Absolute Death, like Miss Luo Yan, control the powers of other Gods?

The answer was simple, and the Witch of Absolute Death herself had said it.

“Because I and the white flower are one,” the Witch of Absolute Death said softly, “She gave birth to me, and I also gave birth to her.”

“The Artificial Witch Project… it’s the Artificial Witch Project… The Saint back then, what kind of terrifying and mad plan did she create…”

The Witch of Sorrow cried out in a near scream. She suddenly realized that the power she controlled was being taken away. Although it didn’t weaken her much, it was happening.

Once the Gods’ power weakened, it was very likely that they wouldn’t be able to maintain the false starry sky.

At that time, forget about saving the world, even the chance to maintain the next cycle would be completely lost, and this world would be exposed to the real starry sky without any protection, the terrifying truth revealed to all of humanity.

At this point, it was too late to say anything, and Marytis was distraught.

She hadn’t expected her plan to fail at the last moment, no… or rather, it was unknown.

No one knew what would happen if the Witch of Absolute Death truly became the God of Gods.

Although the Witch of Absolute Death hadn’t shown even a hint of anger towards Marytis’s deception, even seemingly ignoring it, Marytis still felt an unprecedented sense of defeat, stronger than if she had died on the spot.

Hundreds of years of effort, countless days and nights of lurking, and at the final moment…

It was all taken away so easily.

Was this the power of the Gods? Even a traitor…

After taking the guide cane, the Witch of Absolute Death ignored Marytis.

She quietly looked into the distance, then started walking.

One step, two steps.

Countless chains slowly appeared, binding her limbs, trying to slow her down.

But… it was useless.

These chains were as fragile as paper. The Witch of Absolute Death walked unhurriedly, and all the chains shattered.

At the same time, the slumbering Saints all spat out a mouthful of blood, because these chains were connected to their lives.

When the Witch of Absolute Death broke free from her restraints, the shattering of the chains also backlashed against them.

The Saint’s former residence, the white temple that had stood for countless years, was collapsing bit by bit.

“…Marytis.”

The Witch of Sorrow whispered, seemingly calming down a bit, a purple figure appearing beside Marytis.

Looking closely, the purple figure was somewhat similar to Marytis.

“…”

But now, Marytis’s eyes were ashen.

The purple figure remained silent, gently embracing Marytis.

Their figures slowly dissipated, as if they had never existed.

Just then, the white temple finally completely collapsed, burying everything that once existed here.

Then, from the collapsed ruins, came an alarm that hadn’t sounded for hundreds of years. The alarm reached the Noah Church headquarters, echoing throughout Old Noah and New Noah, then spreading to all human mega-cities.

This alarm sounded somewhat unfamiliar, because it hadn’t been activated for hundreds of years.

Countless human leaders were awakened upon hearing the alarm, repeatedly confirming it.

But in the end, they discovered with despair that there was no mistake.

This meant that the Witch of Absolute Death had broken free, and the shadow from hundreds of years ago would return, like a haze covering the entire sky.

…….

The Church of the End Gods’ last base, within the cellar.

The battle between Shadow and Hamid was nearing its end. Spatial debris and shadow fragments were everywhere, filling the entire massive underground base.

If an ordinary ability user walked in, they would probably be instantly devoured by the shadows and space, not even leaving a complete corpse.

Only those who reached “Peril” level could barely survive in this environment.

“…You win, Lin Qingying.”

Hamid said weakly. Although he was still standing, he couldn’t move, the Shadow Realm enveloping his entire body.

At their level, the slightest difference in strength was an insurmountable gap.

The demonic avatar descending upon Hamid was almost completely exhausted, and Shadow was also seriously injured.

The two were the best classmates and rivals back then, and even after hundreds of years, the nature of their abilities hadn’t changed.

Shadow could hunt down Hamid back then, and naturally, she could do it now.

Hamid, the strongest in the Church of the End Gods on paper, even summoning the Sovereign’s power couldn’t defeat Shadow, and since he no longer had the will to fight, this seemingly ordinary old man was already on the verge of death.

“Hamid, you… didn’t go all out.” Shadow said seriously, “You haven’t been corrupted by ‘malice’ yet, you can still sacrifice your soul and flesh, you could have disregarded everything to defeat me.”

What Shadow said was true. Without other special means, just relying on the tricks of a Devil’s Apostle, Hamid was no match for Shadow.

But with those means, Shadow would be the one in danger.

“…But what’s the point?” Hamid said with an indifferent expression, although he was covered in wounds and constantly coughing up blood, “Lin Qingying, killing you here, what would it change?”

His plan was complete, and the Church of the End Gods’ final struggle had ended.

Whether he lived or died, regardless of what the Twelve Saints did, it wouldn’t change the outcome… success or failure was no longer affected by these factors.

So, life or death, to Hamid, there was no difference.

At the same time, Hamid could feel a strange power resonating with him through his senses. This was the new God.

A God possessing all the powers of the Gods.

His final gamble, the final “Recreating the Gods”… had succeeded.

Could the world be changed because of the birth of the new God?

Would the erroneous civilization finally end, ushering in a new, hopeful civilization?

Hamid didn’t know, and he wouldn’t have the chance to know.

“Indeed… it should have ended long ago.”

Hamid originally wanted to look up at the sky, to take one last look at the beautiful, dazzling starry sky, but he only saw the ceiling, blocking everything.

This was the underground base of the Church of the End Gods; there was no sky here.

As his life neared its end, Hamid couldn’t see the Gods’ final miracle.

He chuckled self-deprecatingly, it was unclear whether he was laughing at himself, or at something else.

Shadow wasn’t indecisive. She didn’t understand why Hamid gave up struggling, but she wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

Whether Hamid felt guilt or remorse for what he did back then wouldn’t change Shadow’s actions.

She wanted Hamid dead, even if death, for Hamid, was actually an irresponsible escape.

“…It’s time to go, Hamid.”

Shadow, with black hair and black eyes, used the last of her strength and surged towards Hamid.

A seemingly endless shadow swallowed Hamid’s body, devouring his last bit of life.

The spatial barrier completely shattered, the engulfing shadow eroding this aged body filled with demonic aura, burying him at the end of his existence.

……

“It’s the Gods! The brand new Gods! Hahahaha… Hamid didn’t lie to me! That little bitch Marytis actually did it!”

Feeling the surging power within him, an ecstatic expression appeared on Wen Hua’s face—if his face could still be recognized.

All the coffins had been opened, and the “malice”-corrupted coffin monsters indiscriminately slaughtered all living beings who dared to approach. The first to be devoured by their maws were the followers of the Church of the End Gods.

After all the followers were consumed, the monsters, following the aura of living beings, began to attack Dragon City.

Wen Hua had completely transformed into its demonic form, and because it recklessly embraced the “malice” from the coffins, its already ugly body became even more twisted, its power infinitely expanding.

When the Witch of Absolute Death took the Gods’ powers, Wen Hua’s connection with the Gods suddenly intensified, its transformation becoming even more complete, madness almost completely consuming its consciousness.

Dragon City’s defense system had already killed many coffin monsters, but their re-dead bodies were also eroding Dragon City’s defenses with contamination. Coupled with the fact that Wen Hua knew the weaknesses of Dragon City’s defenses very well, the external defenses were about to collapse completely.

Madness didn’t mean losing memory; all memories were turned into instincts by Wen Hua in its madness.

A monstrous being, five meters tall, composed of purplish-black tumors and abnormally bulging black muscles, covered in thick, dark red blood vessels, began to charge towards Dragon City, and this was precisely when Dragon City’s external defenses completely collapsed.

“I… am… back… “

“Dragon City…”

“Ha… hiss… ha…”

A low, raspy growl sounded, in perfect Eastern language.

The Dragon City guards had never seen such a force. At least “Destruction” level and above Calamity monsters were a disaster that almost all mega-cities had never faced. Several “Destruction” level generals guarding Dragon City were mobilized, but they were at a loss.

There were differences even among “Destruction” level beings. Wen Hua, who had previously only been able to deal with “Peril” level opponents, after this series of monsterizations, had become an existence that ordinary “Destruction” level ability users couldn’t handle.

Immortal, rapidly healing, almost infinite stamina, and most importantly, uncontrollable contamination, the land it stepped on might take hundreds of years to purify.

The rampaging monster was approaching Dragon City’s walls, and an atmosphere of panic filled every inch of the city.

But at this critical moment, the leader of Dragon City, the current City Lord, Wen Su, wasn’t in the City Lord’s mansion deep within the city.

He stood alone on the tall city wall, looking up into the distance, watching the twisted, ugly monster approaching him.

He remained silent.

Slowly closing his eyes.

“…You shouldn’t have come back.”
