Chapter 973: Chapter 29: A Favorite Sight

"The Domain of Dark Night... This must be the power of the Night God!"

In this dark, lightless world, Erica grew more and more anxious as she walked.

Because this space seemed to be transformed by some rule, completely immersed in the aura of night, turning into a world of darkness.

Is this the effect of some particularly advanced holy relic or magic artifact, or... is it the divine power of Authority itself at work? She didn’t know and didn’t want to know, only focusing all her energy and spirit on the task at hand, to face this sudden disaster.

There was only the cold glow of the silver moon, besides which, everything in sight was devoid of artificial light.

Even the electronic devices on her body inexplicably completely failed, as if all modern electricity and fire had vanished into silence in this world of darkness.

Under normal circumstances, with Erica’s abilities, she naturally wouldn’t worry about not being able to see in the dark, as long as there were stars and moonlight above, the environment around her would be as bright as day, everything visible... But now, it’s different.

Being new to this place, unfamiliar with the land, she was now trapped in this true darkness where it seemed she couldn’t see the road a few meters ahead—

She could no longer accurately determine where she was.

The number of owls was growing ever larger, in this dark night world, it was faintly visible as if a great storm was forming, touching the ground and the sky, the storm clouds were actually composed of an endless number of owls, such a torrent that had surpassed the imagination of humans.

Then there were the snakes...

With bright colorful patterns and scales, yet simultaneously enormous giant snakes, also converged into a sea of snakes, although lagging behind the flying owls, were also relentlessly pursuing. Their bodies slithered across the ground, bypassing streets, roads, railings...

Nothing could stop this massive sea of snakes from moving forward, they seemed like a dark tide, advancing bit by bit, devouring everything in their path.

Even though Erica and Amilia were not ordinary girls.

They still felt more or less discomfort when facing this scene. Miss Brave wished she could transform into a map cannon and aoe blast everything indiscriminately... But unfortunately, her power was almost drained, and the Evolutionary Holy Sword could no longer maintain its form, disappearing from her hands.

With the Holy Sword unavailable, naturally there was no spare energy to indiscriminately perform full-screen insta-kills.

Recollecting the days when she single-handedly crushed entire Demon Realm armies, driving demons off continent after continent, seemed like something from a past life...

"Ahead... it seems there’s light ahead!!"

Erica gritted her teeth tightly, her eyes suddenly flashing with a glimmer, sharply detecting a faint light appearing up ahead.

It seemed to be a street, and finally there was light at the end...

They seemed like they were trapped in deep darkness, only now barely approaching the edge, peeking at the light from outside faintly shining through. The moment her words fell, they sprinted forward for a bit, and more light streamed in!

They could even vaguely see numerous streetlights illuminating the road, with the neon signs of shops flickering, outlining the outlines of a nighttime shopping street!

At this moment, the flocks of birds and snakes behind them became completely frantic.

However, it was too late—

"Fly, Hermes’ Boots!"

Erica decisively chanted the spell loudly, sparing no magic power, to activate this magic beyond its limit, the extreme flow of magic nearly tore apart her internal circuits with pain, but the feedback was immediate!

Miss Brave suddenly felt herself rising, her entire being soaring into the air!

Her body became almost weightless in an instant, as if unburdened by weight, and at her original speed, she launched like a bullet, the wind howling past her ears, her vision dazzled by blinding light!!

"Ah!!"

"Oof—!!"

"Ow ow ow—!!"

It was as if she had just been jolted awake from a nightmare, vivid and vigorous reality crashing into them head-on!

Nearby pedestrians, coming and going, stared in astonishment at the scene, where two beautiful girls, bearing different styles, clashed inelegantly, tangled messily together, either rubbing their eyes and gasping in pain or clutching their heads and crying out.

Gu Mo calmly stood up.

He dusted off imaginary dust from his clothes, glanced down at the mesmerizing scene briefly, then retracted his gaze.

He turned to look back, the darkness in the alley slowly receding, as though furious and unwilling... Even though it was a sudden attack, Athena failed to capture him. Although it seemed that his presence had reinforced it somewhat, without her true body present, attempting to control it from half the Earth away was barely viable.

This was quite a pity, Gu Mo thought with a sense of regret.
