Chapter 264 Aloof
Chapter 264 Aloof
Fast forward to the present, and the Starry Sky Fantasy finally meets the child it has chosen.
Fate is unfair, and life is unpredictable. When Luo Yi saw Mu Ban's arrogant demeanor, he felt nothing but resentment.
“You’re awake, aren’t you? That’s good. You’ve arrived just in time for me to achieve my life’s goal. Your teacher will finally be able to liberate the world from suffering.”
Dressed in magnificent attire, Muban ascended the high platform amidst the support of the cosmic beings, each step he took shimmering with light.
When Luo Yi woke up from his serious injuries, the scene before him was completely unfamiliar; it didn't even feel like his original world.
But there was a heartbeat that Luo Yi could clearly hear, incredibly weak, yet unwilling to give up.
"Get out of here! People like you don't deserve to live! You should have been the one who died ten years ago!"
"You can fool everyone else, but you can't fool me. Your ruthlessness deserves to die a thousand times over!"
Mu Ban heard Luo Yi's roar, but he remained unmoved, continuing to maintain his noble state of mind.
The Baltan alien guarding Luo Yi swung his pincers, slamming half of Luo Yi's face into the ground and rubbing it against the ground. Muban was very satisfied with the Baltan alien's performance.
Telepathy has reached its pinnacle, allowing commands to be issued without speaking.
Muban can now command the actions of all the otherworldly beings present at will, without lifting a finger or uttering a word. He only needs to sit in his high position, and dealing with the scoundrels and traitors is superfluous, even if he gets angry.
Luo Yi's anger was rising. He used his fist to support himself as he stood up, which shook the ground. Now, Luo Yi looked at Mu Ban with more hatred than he looked at the otherworldly beast.
As soon as Luo Yi raised his head, all the otherworldly beings present stared at him simultaneously, each raising their own weapons—guns, palm cannons, laser pointers, and so on.
Dozens of attack methods that Luo Yi had never seen before were all aimed at him at this moment, opening fire instantly without saying a word, and smoke and explosions completely engulfed Luo Yi.
"This is your lifeline. Watch your attitude, lucky one."
“You were saved by me right here. You wouldn’t be alive today without me.”
"I tacitly approved of everything you did before. Did you really think the Mage Guild didn't have the strength to capture you, you fool?"
Muban then moved with a surge of light and agility, and high palaces rose from the ground layer by layer, becoming kings and emperors in the blink of an eye.
He took this place as the starting point for establishing his new era. The historical texts were nothing but scraps of paper. Now, Muban could even shape the world's orthodoxy according to his own preferences.
All those who listen to him will enjoy a life of glory and prosperity. Under his protection, they will live a life of absolute peace. Muban will create a new society for mankind based on his own ideal of happiness.
As for those who oppose him, Muban has ways to make them "repent and reform".
"I know I can't persuade you; I've never been able to get you to listen."
“But that was before. Now, I have the ability to change the world. You will never be a burden to me again, Luo Yi. You are just a test subject for me to test my abilities.”
"If you cooperate obediently, you will suffer less pain. This is the last piece of advice I can give you, Luo Yi."
Sitting high above, Mu Ban looked at Luo Yi, waiting for his resistance. He was sure Luo Yi would resist; Luo Yi had never listened to him when Mu Ban tried to persuade him.
But Muban was waiting for that moment to bring the stubborn Luo Yi to his emotional peak. The more Luo Yi resisted his anger, the easier it was for Muban to control him.
Muban has plenty of ways to make Law vent his anger, and once Law's emotions have subsided, that's when he can infuse him with illusion magic.
The aliens gradually moved closer to Luo Yi, and the magic given to them by Mu Ban gathered in their hands—a magic that only Mu Ban could control.
"Impossible, you can't do it."
"Oh, you still believe in Zeta? Do you think Zeta can stand against the whole world?"
"What does this have to do with Zeta? You're destined to fail; you've always failed. I've seen all your failures!"
"What do you know! You've never understood anything from beginning to end!"
Supreme and all-powerful, Muban, having attained the greatest power in the world, is virtually omnipotent.
But Luo Yi's words struck Mu Ban's inner demons with a single blow, shattering all the pretense Mu Ban had cultivated for so long.
He ripped off the magnificent clothes and threw them to the ground, the noble throne receded, and Mu Ban stepped forward, summoning a gun used by otherworldly beings with one hand, pointing the gun, capable of killing with a single shot, at Luo Yi's head.
"I can kill you right now, so don't expect me to have any feelings for you anymore."
"Then go ahead and kill, just like you 'killed' Ariel."
"What right do you have to say that name!"
Enraged to the extreme, Muban crushed the gun in his hand, then covered his entire fist with armor and smashed it into Luo Yi's face until blood flowed from his mouth and nose to the ground. Muban's anger did not lessen at all.
"Ariel's death was all the fault of those lowly monsters! Ariel was killed by those bastard monsters, and I even thought of protecting them when they invaded from another world... All monsters are lowly, damned vermin! A million of them wouldn't be enough to atone for their crimes!"
The resentment that had been suppressed for many years was finally spoken out. Mu Ban's pretense of being the chairman for so many years disgusted him to the extreme, and every time he heard a monster roar, Mu Ban would have the urge to kill.
Muban wanted to kill all the monsters to avenge Ariel.
"Cough... You started the interdimensional war, you betrayed the world and begged for the power of the otherworldly beings. In order to deceive yourself, you dragged all the humans and monsters in the world into the war."
“Ariel died because she didn’t see your true ugliness. You never cared about others; you only cared about your own desires.”
"You were the one who deserved to die in that war, not Ariel, not those hundreds of innocent lives!"
With blood and foam spitting from his mouth, Luo Yi used his last breath to smash Mu Ban's self-righteous mask of deception.
Luo Yi's heart and magic were racing, both wanting to save a life, but after speaking, Luo Yi lowered his head; he had given up on his own life.
Luo Yi would rather die like Ariel than live to watch Muban commit evil deeds.
"You want to die? I'll make sure you don't!"
"I will let you live, so you can see with your own eyes that everything you've ever longed for will kneel at my feet!"
"Whether it's Ultraman or the entire world, I want them to live, only then do they deserve to live under my command! I want them to die, not even for a second is too much for them."
Muban was unconvinced and refused to accept anything Luo Yi said.
Mubanrang Luo Yi must live. Only by living to the end will he realize just how powerful he truly is, powerful enough to control the entire world at will.
With a powerful punch, the rock pillar erupted as Muban connected his consciousness to the surface of the world, broadcasting events happening all over the globe in his mind.
The island explodes, a mechanical dragon descends, Delta Claw separates from Zeta, and Haruki no longer travels with Zeta. The opportunity lies here.
The interdimensional fleet is stationed at a camp, and all the surrounding interdimensional ruins have been occupied by interdimensional people. They are expanding their territory, but they cannot succeed against me who has obtained the power of the phantom beast.
The underground veins transmitted elemental energy, and Muban's entire body flashed with white light, breaking through human limits. The energy of the magical beasts continued to supply Muban from the magic array, and the monsters were powerless to resist and were on the verge of death.
"Found you, Haruki. I've wanted to destroy Belial Twilight in your hands for a long time. This time is perfect. The punishment that Grandi didn't receive will now fall on your shoulders."
"It would be very interesting to have Zeta hunt you down."
After finding Yaohui's trail, Muban's consciousness transformed into a burst of light, shooting from the ruins into the sky, forming a beam of signal that spread throughout the world, altering the perceptions of all living beings.
"Listen up, all of humanity! Haruki has been possessed by Belial Twilight. Find him at all costs and destroy Belial Twilight."
"All monsters, heed my command! The world is facing a dimensional attack. Haruki and Belial Twilight will threaten the entire world. Assist humanity, and the Magicians' Guild will be your leader."
"Fellow beings from another world, you are sinners of the universe. I am your judge representing the world. I will grant you a chance to atone for your sins. Capture Haruki and Belial Twilight, and protect the world from their hateful attacks. Humanity is something you must protect with your lives."
