Chapter 912: Chapter 687: Perform Well, the Organization Has High Hopes for You

The situation was on the verge of eruption, but Roger slowly retreated. At this moment, he was too close to the center of the battlefield, and leaving rashly would undoubtedly attract the attention of both sides.

This dragon named Jora referred to Heyman as her brother, and her appearance was almost identical to Dora’s. It seemed that the conflicts between the three siblings ran deep. Heyman imprisoning Dora on Serlon Peak was likely not an act of mercy.

Rather, it was a tactic or a threat.

"Everything I’ve done has always been for the right reasons, for us and for this world."

Heyman declared loudly.

"Is that so, my dear brother?"

"If you love me so much, then why not release your sister from that mountain, and hand her over to me?"

"Don’t worry, I promise I won’t kill you!"

Flames surged around Jora, heat waves radiating wildly. Even without intentionally unleashing her power, many homes in Sky City began to burn under the intense heat.

The hidden dragons within the city emerged one by one, forming a standoff with Jora’s followers.

On the surface, Heyman’s side appeared to hold the clear advantage.

"Let’s put an end to this once and for all. I’m sure Dora is already exhausted."

"Must it end this way?" Heyman asked, his face grim. Roger couldn’t help but feel that Heyman seemed somewhat lacking in confidence.

Perhaps Jora’s strength still surpassed his.

"You should know you’re no match for me."

Jora sneered coldly, "Joining that so-called Dragon Court has turned you into nothing but a neutered dog. While you’ve stagnated, I’ve broken through again and again, gaining greater power."

She slowly clenched her fists, an invisible pressure sweeping through the surroundings. "For the sake of the bond between our bloodline, hand Dora over to me, and I promise to spare your life."

Hearing Jora’s threat, Heyman snorted coldly. Without visibly making any moves, the void behind him grew increasingly turbulent. At the same time, Jora’s expression suddenly shifted.

"What are you doing?"

"You’re twins. If Dora..."

"Don’t push me, brother."

"Don’t force me to kill you with my own hands!" Her face hardened with resolve. "You can try, but if Dora dies, I’ll make sure you go to the grave with her!"

As soon as her words fell, her body transformed into flames. Receiving her signal, the surrounding Transcendents joined the battle as well.

Like celestial bodies colliding, Heyman and Jora’s figures clashed violently.

The entire street crumbled from the impact. Seeing the two of them fighting further and further away, Roger quietly continued his retreat.

He adjusted his own energy, searching for the "hidden gate" he had left behind.

Before leaving, a fleeting thought arose in his mind, subtly penetrating into Heyman’s consciousness.

"Show me what you’re made of. The Dragon Court has no place for the weak."

"I expect you to use the results of this battle to account for your earlier secrecy."

Upon hearing Roger’s words, Heyman’s figure trembled slightly before unleashing his full power. Taking advantage of the moment when both combatants were fully engrossed, Roger successfully slipped across the barrier.

The scenery before him shifted dramatically. Gone were the violent clashes and widespread destruction. Stone pillars stood tall, and Roger had returned once again to Serlon Peak.

Sonia was running frantically around a circular platform, carefully examining the hidden prohibitions nearby.

"How’s it going?"

Roger asked urgently.

The surrounding chains rattled loudly. Amanda, wracked by agonizing torment, had already passed out. It was obvious that Heyman had recently employed some method to manipulate the prohibitions on Serlon Peak, inflicting harm upon Amanda.

As twins, Dora’s physical body was undoubtedly connected to Jora in some way. When Dora suffered a certain degree of harm, the other side would also be affected.

If Heyman were to disregard everything and use death as the price, he could certainly inflict devastating damage upon Jora.

But clearly, such actions would inevitably push the situation completely into the Abyss.

At that point, the two of them would be locked in an unending grudge.

"I can’t get too close. If I forcibly destroy these prohibitions, Heyman will definitely notice," Sonia said anxiously.

"Will breaking these prohibitions hurt her?" Roger asked.

"If we’re fast enough, we can minimize the harm. And you can use the Eye of Truth, which will let you break the prohibitions at the smallest cost," Sonia replied.

"But the issue is still Heyman."

Removing the prohibitions was only the first step. Next, Sonia would need to examine Amanda’s physical condition. Even during a battle, if anything unexpected happened near Serlon Peak, Heyman would surely return immediately.

And then there was Jora.

Her obsession with Dora’s body meant she wouldn’t stand idly by.

Just as Roger hesitated, the stone pillars around them began to tremble, eerily expanding outward. Simultaneously, the chains piercing Amanda’s body yanked forcefully.

Blood sprayed everywhere, and Amanda jolted awake from her unconscious state. Blood blurred her vision, and she cried out, "Roger, is it really you?"

"Is this not an illusion?"

"You’ve come to save me... Ah!"

Anger flared in Roger’s heart. In that moment, he no longer hesitated. The patterns of the Eye of Truth appeared out of thin air, emitting a faint glow that scanned the entire space.

Under the dense layering of arrays and rituals, Roger precisely identified the flaws within the space. Black Moon leapt into his hand as the power within him erupted. With a single strike, he pierced forward!

The barrier shattered like paper, layer by layer.

The entire space trembled violently. In the next moment, the stone pillars crumbled, and the chains piercing Amanda’s body dissolved into nothingness.

"Boom!"

The massive form that fell could no longer maintain its dragon shape. By the time it hit the ground, it had already reverted to Dora’s human form.
