Chapter 179 The Illusionary Throne of Thorns
Chapter 179 The Illusionary Throne of Thorns
"Saint Germain, we have just experienced a disaster. If you have any questions, I can answer them for you." Di Qi said considerately.
"Forget it, it's all old stuff, who cares?"
St. Germain said angrily, "All I want to do is put an end to everything that has happened over the past four hundred years!"
Then St. Germain began a long speech, telling of his own schemes.
……
It turns out that Yuguka is not a descendant of the Layton family, but a descendant of the Sharna family. The relationship between Yuguka and Tiki is just like that between Dino Sharna and Carter Layton many years ago.
Over four hundred years ago, in the ancient kingdom of Langsheng, a dark behemoth devoured the entire city. With the help of Carter Layton and several foreigners he knew, the beast was finally repelled. However, the price was enormous: Langsheng was completely destroyed, and only a few people survived.
Lucas Sharna became the adopted son of the Layton family and was carefully cared for by Carter Layton.
However, Lucas was weak by nature and could not establish a spiritual connection with the contracted monster, Phantom Fox. In fact, it was because Lucas was frightened by his childhood memories and unconsciously sealed away those horrific memories.
Lucas never managed to piece together the true story throughout his life, and had to pass it on to his descendants with endless regrets.
After Lucas's death, his descendants hid their identities and surrounded themselves with the Layton family, preparing to investigate. However, the Layton family had already become famous, even earning the title of "Bounty King." The Sharna family, on the other hand, had almost disappeared into the depths of history, becoming virtually unknown.
By the time of Saint Germain's generation, he relied on his intelligence and talent to get the position of steward of the Leighton family. Taking advantage of his position, he quickly learned the truth of the past and decided to take revenge.
He learned that the dark forest was actually the hair of a mirage, which was born from the alchemy array of the Sharna family and could only be awakened by the blood of the Sharna family.
So, Saint Germain abandoned Yuguka to the Dark Forest and had the Leighton family adopt him. Yuguka lived up to everyone's expectations and was excellent in every aspect. If he had not been adopted, he would have been the heir to the Leighton family.
But it doesn't matter, as long as Saint Germain uses some tricks, the throne will still belong to Yuguka.
Time passed, and Diqi's parents were away for many years due to important matters, and Diqi went to the Cross Base to study. Saint Germain knew that the time had come, so he revealed everything to Yuguka.
Under the covert guidance of Saint Germain, Yuguka began recruiting soldiers and expanding his power. He also used the berries of the Dark Forest to seduce wealthy businessmen and secretly discredit the Layton family...
Next, as long as they got rid of Diqi, everything would be fine. But Saint Germain never expected that Diqi would be so lucky.
……
"My goal is to use the mirage to make the sinners of the Leighton family receive the punishment they deserve! The Leighton family can't do anything to me, hehe..."
Diqi has already realized that Yuguka has been kept in the dark all along, and he must tell Yuguka the truth as soon as possible.
"It's too late."
As if he had read Diqi's mind, Saint Germain mocked him, "Although I failed to eliminate you, at least I stopped you in your tracks. Now that Yuguka's hunting order has been completed and he has become the new head of the Layton family, you have no chance. Moreover..."
St. Germain paused, as if about to say something very terrible.
"[Ding! Mission triggered - Defeat or assist in defeating the Mirage. Success reward: 1 random consumable; Failure penalty: Obliterate.]"
It's rare that the system has revived, but this is not a good thing. Without attribute improvement, how can Yiyin win?
"Mirage!"
Yi Yin shouted, "You want to use the mirage to achieve your ambitions!"
As he spoke, the ground began to shake, and many screams came from all directions.
"Yes, the Mirage is about to wake up! It can destroy everything. By using it, I can sit on a more powerful throne." Saint Germain had a good idea.
Everyone had already witnessed the horror of the mirage once before in Langsheng. If it awakened again, and Selina's strength hadn't fully recovered, and she couldn't use Water Fang again, what would she do?
"damn it."
With the sharp blade in hand, Yi Yin quickly slashed at Saint Germain, "Stop that monster now, or I will bury you with it!"
But before Yiyin's basalt blade touched Saint Germain, a firebird flew to Saint Germain and protected him.
A certain phantom fox sensed that its master was in danger and automatically came to protect it.
"Hahahaha. Next, there's only one last step..."
Saint Germain walked away as he spoke, and no one could catch up with him at all, because with the awakening of the mirage, everything was shaking unnaturally, and everyone was jumping up and down like on a seesaw.
.
Dark forest.
At this moment, the "Dark Forest" had revealed its true form and was about to expand. But after a while, it stopped because something restrained it.
Golden swirl.
At this moment, Yuguka was in the middle of the alchemy circle, and his brothers and sisters were beside him, and they seemed to be working on suppressing the mirage.
"Yuguka Shanna."
Saint Germain arrived here at some point, and when he saw Yuguka's actions, he actually laughed out of anger.
"Well, you scoundrel, you're such a traitor! You wag your tail just by being given a bone. Have you forgotten whose blood is flowing in your veins?"
Facing Saint Germain's rebuke, Yuguka seemed unconcerned. "Don't preach. I'm responsible for the mistakes I made before."
"field"
The only thing that can end a "field" is a "field" in the opposite direction. It seems that Yuguka wants to use this to restore peace to everything.
But Saint Germain had been preparing for many years, how could he not have expected this situation?
"My years of hard work will not be wasted..."
Saint Germain knew that since Yuguka was focused on suppressing the mirage, he would have no time to defend himself. If he was eliminated at this point, no one would be able to stop the mirage.
Just as Saint Germain was about to move forward, a five-star dart landed squarely on the black ground beneath his feet.
"Stop hurting my brother!"
Di Qi came with hidden weapons, and it was obvious that he had replenished resources early. Behind him were Bubulu and his men and Instructor Heilu.
It seems that a great battle is about to begin in the former residence of the Sharna family, now the Dark Forest.
"Brother! Just focus on dealing with the mirage, I'll stop Saint Germain!"
"Prevent?"
St. Germain sneered, "Titch Layton, heir of the Layton family. Over four hundred years ago, it was your Layton family's inaction that caused the Sharna family to suffer heavy losses. Now, you want to stop me again! I've been lying at your Layton family's doorstep like an old dog for so many years, not just to let you laugh at me!"
Then, Saint Germain seemed to show great determination. He knew that if he wanted to achieve extraordinary things, he had to show extraordinary courage.
The Phantom Fox also felt the master's determination and quietly waited for the moment when its final fate would come.
"Phantom Dark Fox, dark upgrade!"
Saint Germain casually picked up a stone. After being baptized by it, the Phantom Fox screamed in pain as if it was being burned by the flames of hell.
Saint Germain seemed to have suffered the same degree of damage as Phantom Fox, but he was still standing strong, wanting to witness the end of the Leighton family with his own eyes.
"what is this?"
Selina exclaimed in shock, "Except for Yiyin, I've never seen anyone who can manually control monsters to upgrade!"
"Disgusting taste..."
Bubulu said with disgust, as if there was a kind of decayed smell about Saint Germain.
The Sibu Xiang was even more sensitive to this kind of aura, and it went straight into Bubulu's coffin and refused to come out.
Through his divine eyes, Jiaozi sensed that the Phantom Fox was now just like his own Ivy Yaoyao, having transformed into a darker and more powerful being. However, he had only gained this power through Ilibu, while Saint Germain had to rely on some kind of medium to obtain this power out of thin air...
Thinking of this, Jiaozi felt a little worried.
Could it be the stone in Saint Germain's hand?
No, compared to this, can the blackened and upgraded Phantom Fox interfere with the formation of the alchemy array?
