Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate - Chapter 412 - 408: Sealing Grand Array, Sacrifice to the Ancient God

The news of the demon’s mutation continued to ferment.

In just two days, the Holy Sanctuary was filled with discussions about this event.

Regarding this change, naturally, some were happy while others were worried.

Those who were worried were concerned about the uncertainty and dangers brought by the demon’s mutation.

Those who were happy were excited about the increase in demon resources.

The rise in demon level, along with the appearance of Leaders or Lord Demons, had many benefits for territories scarce in resources.

It could be said that opinions varied.

Originally, Lin You was a bit worried that something might happen, but thinking about how he was an Tier Eight Lord, even if something did happen, it seemed like he couldn’t change much.

So eventually, he went on with his usual routine, venturing to the Nightmare Forest daily to seize Origin Fruits.

However, unfortunately.

In the past two days, he’d only managed to snatch one Origin Fruit.

And that too was obtained unexpectedly.

Due to his limited strength, there was nothing he could do.

Though he now had confidence that he could escape unscathed from a Tier Nine Lord, reaching a level where he could contend with them would require advancing to Tier Nine.

But even so.

Lin You wasn’t going to give up the chance to accumulate the Power of Faith quickly.

Indeed.

Early in the morning, he had already arrived at the center of the Nightmare Forest, waiting around the Ancient Origin Tree.

“Lin You, my brother, you came early today.”

From afar, Shen Chunfeng and his group approached slowly.

“Yes, I came early to secure a good spot.”

Upon seeing Shen Chunfeng and his companions, Lin You nodded at them.

These days, they often ran into each other here, becoming quite familiar.

Moreover, unlike other Tier Nines, they didn’t put on airs around him, remaining approachable.

“Are you guys planning to go after the Tier Nine Lord Demons later?” Lin You asked.

“Of course, although there’s intense competition at Tier Nine, with a bit of luck, it’s possible to snatch two or three fruits at once,” Shen Chunfeng smiled and said.

This was a matter of limits.

Tier Eight Lord Demons were easier to snatch fruits from, but the limit was only one.

However, Tier Nine Lord Demons were different.

On a lucky day, if several fruits happened to fall at one’s feet, one could instantly become wealthy.

Moreover, Shen Chunfeng moved with a team, having people to cover them.

Even if besieged, they still had the strength to escape with the fruits.

This was the difference between cooperation and going solo.

“By the way.”

Suddenly, Shen Chunfeng changed the topic.

“On our way over, we ran into several teams from the Realm Alliance, so be careful on your way back.”

“Realm Alliance?”

Lin You was startled.

He knew there were Realm Alliance members near here.

But now, at this crucial time when the Origin Fruits were about to bear, why were there so many from the Realm Alliance lingering on the forest’s outskirts?

For some reason.

He felt uneasy.

However, before he could think more about it, there was a sudden murmur from the crowd in the distance, and a large amount of light began to rapidly converge towards the Ancient Origin Tree.

“It’s about to bear, let’s talk later if there’s a chance.”

Shen Chunfeng and his group turned serious and immediately rushed deeper with their species team.

Lin You also summoned all his species, focusing solely on seizing the fruits.

“It’s here!”

At that moment, someone shouted.

The Origin Fruit at the crown of the Ancient Origin Tree began to detach, transforming in mid-air into several Tier Eight and Nine Lord Demons, which fell with a crash to the ground.

Suddenly, the place erupted with shouts.

All the Lords led their species in swarming, launching fierce attacks.

Lin You did not hesitate, immediately targeting an Tier Eight Origin Entangler just a hundred meters away.

“Big Cannon!”

At his command, the cannon’s barrel roared, firing a blazing streak of flames towards the Origin Entangler.

Planning to finish it off before other Lords could react.

However.

This usually flawless move failed today.

Apparently sensing the threat of death, the newly landed Origin Entangler twisted its body, diving directly underground to evade the cannon’s fatal blow.

Then, the ground burst with a roar as the Origin Entangler reappeared, its vines piercing into the ground and spreading rapidly in all directions.

“Go! Finish it off!”

“Ha-ha, this Origin Fruit is mine.”

“Dream on, stop him for me!”

In no time, the surrounding Tier Eight Lords sprang into action, leading their species to encircle the Origin Entangler, launching fierce assaults.

The Lords that appeared here were no weaklings.

In moments, the Origin Entangler’s vine defenses shattered, and the relentless attacks landed on its main body in explosions.

Even Lin You’s Shadowless couldn’t get close.

The Lords continually shouted, diligently commanding their species to attack.

Under such an intense barrage, even powerful Tier Eight Lord Demons like the Origin Entangler could only roar in anger, gradually falling back.

Finally.

After another round of concentrated fire, the Origin Entangler was successfully slain.

Its massive body quickly shrank, reverting to its original Origin Fruit form, gently floating down from the sky.

The Lords’ spirits lifted as they immediately issued orders to their species nearby.

“Hurry! Grab it!”

“The Origin Fruit is mine!”

“Dream on, quickly stop him!”

“Ring of Resistance!”

The moment the Origin Fruit appeared, the entire scene turned chaotic in an instant.

Countless lord species attempted to rush forward to seize the fruit but were immediately forced back by a barrage of attacks.

The fruit, gleaming with a life aura, changed hands several times in mere moments, its location shifting constantly.

“Peaceful Domain!”

At that moment, a low shout suddenly echoed from the crowd.

With a buzzing thud, a green light screen spread out, enveloping all the species and lords around the Origin Fruit.

The previously dense attacks vanished instantly, plunging into an eerie calm.

“What…?”

“What’s happening? Why have all attacks failed!?”

“My attack is also ineffective! I can’t even use skills!”

“Oh no, the fruit has been snatched away!”

A startled cry rang out across the ears of all the lords, causing their expressions to change abruptly.

But it was too late.

Because Lin You had already seized the moment during the Peaceful Domain and quickly snatched the Origin Fruit, storing it in his personal space.

Then, without a second thought, he activated Void Skills and vanished from the scene.

By the time everyone reacted, where was the shadow of the Origin Fruit?

“Damn! Someone snatched the fruit!”

“What happened? How did that person suddenly disappear?”

“It seems to be a stealth-type skill!”

Many lords were unclear about the specific role of Divine Fragments, so they attributed everything to Species Skills.

Yet, even so.

Lin You’s series of actions had greatly shocked them.

To think someone could possess such an eerie ability.

If it was used for assassination, who could withstand it?

Meanwhile.

Having successfully seized the Origin Fruit, Lin You utilized the 30-second stealth time to swiftly flee the scene.

Giving the pursuing lords no chance.

Especially since this time he had deliberately used the Peaceful Domain, coupled with Void Skills, implying even the Tier Nine Lords wouldn’t target him.

The whole operation was a perfect success.

And so, as he ran, observing the surroundings while.

He quickly escaped to the edge area, far from the lord’s conflict zone.

Yet what Lin You could never have expected was.

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the distance.

“Take action!”

With the shout, the ground rumbled loudly, shaking violently.

On the border of the Origin Ancient Tree’s coverage area, an enormous white light screen began to rise gradually, isolating them from the surrounding forest.

Then.

The screen swiftly expanded upward, constructing a semicircular dome in the sky, trapping all the lords inside.

Even the trunk of the Origin Ancient Tree was slowly encased.

The sudden change shocked the lords in the midst of seizing the fruit, causing them to stop and look around.

Several experienced Tier Nine veteran lords, upon seeing the screen, had their expressions abruptly change.

“Not good! It’s a blockade array, leave here quickly!”

With an exclamation, they abandoned the fruit-seizing, mounted flying mounts, and rushed to the sky, attempting to escape through the still not completely closed gap.

But unfortunately.

They were still a step too late.

When they reached the top of the dome, the gap had already closed completely.

Simultaneously, a message rang in all the lords’ minds.

[Attention all lords, current space is under lockdown, all teleportation skills are ineffective.]

Space Lock!

Upon hearing the message, Lin You’s heart trembled.

Just who could be so bold and expend so much to construct such a massive array to lock the entire Origin Ancient Tree area?

This probably couldn’t even be achieved by Tier Nine Lords, could it?

Wait a moment.

Tier Nine Lords?

Suddenly, Lin You was stunned.

He recalled what Shen Chunfeng had said before the battle, mentioning encountering several teams from the Realm Alliance this morning.

Could it be their doing!?

This is troublesome.

Such a large-scale move was clearly long-panned, aiming specifically at Tier Nine Lords from various realms.

Unexpectedly, even he was caught in it.

Not daring to think further, seeing the screen only a few hundred meters away, he rushed forward and struck forcefully with a blade.

“Clang!!”

The violent collision sound exploded beside his ears.

Lin You only felt a tremor in his hand as a strong rebound force swept through, blasting him away, his internal energies surging chaotically.

What a formidable array!

Lin You was utterly astounded, thrusting his blade into the ground with difficulty to stabilize himself.

Meanwhile.

From other directions.

Reacting lords also brought their species closely to the edge, launching frenzied attacks against the array, but only managed to stir up large ripples.

The array couldn’t be damaged substantially.

“It’s useless, this was constructed consuming countless resources from us, you will obediently meet your end, becoming sacrifices offered to the Ancient God.”

Suddenly, a laughter echoed throughout the array.

From the distant forest, numerous figures rushed out, with squads of Tier Nine Lords mounted on flying mounts surrounding the array.

It was clearly the Realm Alliance’s people!
