Chapter 587 - 587 452 Success Doesnt Have to Be Me_1

Chapter 587: 452 Chapter Success Doesn’t Have to Be Me!_1 Chapter 587: 452 Chapter Success Doesn’t Have to Be Me!_1 Having confirmed the direction, Colin was about to move when his body suddenly sank…

He was locked in from all sides.

At the same time, within the dense grey-black fog above his head.

A dark shadow plummeted with a whistling sound tearing through the air.

The arrival of it caused the air across the entire area to tremble.

And just as Colin’s gaze fell upon it, a grey foot at least three hundred square meters in size descended.

It seemed poised to squash him into a pulp.

“What a stinky foot,” Colin frowned, unfazed by his immobilized body.

As the giant foot descended within a few dozen meters of him, he activated the “Force – Repulsive Force” effect…

A horrific blast erupted immediately.

The entire large foot was struck by a strong force, crumbling into the Magic Fog like a sandcastle hit by a wave, then evaporated under the flash of firelight.

“Ugh!”

A strange, mournful cry came from the gloom, but no subsequent attack arrived.

“With the strength of a Level 2 Containment Subject and the boost from the ‘Plague of Magic Fog,’ it’s quite hard to kill. If you dare, wait until I’ve finished my business, then try chasing me onto my territory…”

Colin glanced at a corner of the dense fog, vaguely perceiving something without a definite shape.

Knowing it’d be a waste of time to try and kill this thing, he didn’t look further.

He turned, confirmed the direction once again, and quickly left the area, speeding towards his intended target.

After all, finding Shana was crucial, not wasting time on a monster in this thick and heavy drama.

…

At this time, in the path ahead of where Colin was heading, a terrible creature as massive as a mountain suddenly emitted countless rays of light. Then, in the next second, a shadow flitted by in a flash and disappeared into the distance…

The beast that had just swallowed her was rapidly disintegrated, turning into a sky full of shattered, incomplete bodies.

“Damn it, she got away again.”

Six figures holding lanterns and dressed in black cloaks arrived to find nothing but fragmented pieces on the ground that could no longer be put together…

“Who could have imagined that she would hide an important piece of her body inside the stomach of an ‘Ancient God Type’ creature?”

Another member of the Heretic Church, also carrying a lantern but with numerous dark, mysterious patterns on his face, sighed in resignation.

Half an hour earlier, they had successfully assassinated another of the Saintess’ bodies and had locked down all of her avatars. They thought that this time they had her, almost assuredly captured.

But what they hadn’t expected was to witness a sky filled with fragmented brilliance after the killing strike…

The adversary still had a hidden avatar capable of replacing the original!

After divination, they arrived here only to realize that she had hidden an “original body” within the body of an ‘Ancient God Type’ Magic Fog creature…

This effectively shielded their God-level divination. Who the hell would have guessed that this Saint would be so bold?

After all, such a feat was very likely to accidentally lead to her own demise…

But this generation’s Saint didn’t just dare to do it, she actually succeeded, thereby escaping a situation that was intended to be a surefire deathtrap for her.

Even more so, she managed to counter-kill numerous beings that could be termed ‘Servants of God’ in an instant!

“Could this shadow also be a ruse? Could there be other avatars hidden in the ‘Plague of Magic Fog’?”

Some began to doubt as the chase over time had really started to make them question themselves.

This generation’s Saint possessed an incredibly powerful ability unlike any before.

Her avatars, if they reached a certain threshold, would almost become identical to the original, with the ability to switch places at any time, and memories and experiences were fully shared among them…

That is to say, her “original body” could be transferred at any time, making it extremely difficult to kill.

These pieces of information had been obtained through trial and error during their encirclement, at the cost of a great number of lives…

“It’s impossible now. Earlier, in order to forcibly rescue people under the wrath of God, she recalled most of her strength. To have such a transferable avatar, this one is already at its limit,” said a tall Heretic Believer with tree branch-like black tattoos on his body.

“How can you be so sure of this?” someone asked, puzzled.

“On the way here, I sought counsel from the Revelation Tree. The Revelation it gave…” the tall Heretic Believer spoke with devout sincerity.

And upon mentioning that name, everyone showed reverence on their faces.

“So… do we continue to pursue her immediately? If we corner her this time, might it lead to a situation where our own powerful individuals are dragged into a mutual downfall, thereby allowing others to take advantage of the chaos?”

This time, it wasn’t just them; many other forces were involved.

Given the character of the Saint, it was foreseeable that if she were pushed into a corner, she would definitely sacrifice herself, taking many others with her.

Just as she had done several times before…

And crucially, no one had been able to wipe her out directly, disrupting her fatal abilities before they were unleashed.

Even the mightiest of beings found it almost impossible to do so.

Unless several powerful wills embodied in person…

However, if they could do that, they wouldn’t need to move against the Saintess to begin with.

After all, their objective was to obtain a certain permission to bypass the restrictions of God from her!

Hearing this, everyone fell into a moment of silence.

But in the end, the leader of the Heretic believers said, “What we seek is not much, just her eyes. Our demand is not great, the rest belongs to them. If anyone intends to usurp it, ‘Revelation Tree’ will make sure they understand the consequences…

“As for sacrifices, someone always has to be sacrificed. Without initiative, everyone else just watches, and that will only allow her to escape.”
