Chapter 1751: Chapter 677 Dark Power_2

Before finishing her words, the pitiful woman who had been searching for her daughter for four hundred years died on the spot.

Contrelas, having eliminated the Lightning Controller, was a bit complacent. He laughed loudly as he approached Lu Pingping. In his view, after killing the Lightning Controller who could swiftly take Lu Pingping away from here, there was no longer anyone on Earth who could stop his soul sacrifice. As long as the space channel was closed, he could reclaim all of his strength. At that point, the world would become his personal domain.

Contrelas’ devil body continually absorbed the strange energy from the spatial rift, not only making him stronger but also causing his devil transformation to become more complete. At this moment, Contrelas was enveloped in black fog all over his body, truly resembling a devil that had crawled out from the abyss. If it was still barely possible to discern Contrelas as a human earlier, now he had completely lost human characteristics and had turned into a dark creature.

Although Lu Pingping did not consider the Lightning Controller to be her mother, her heart was still filled with sorrow when she saw the Lightning Controller die to save her. Unfortunately, her body had already lost the ability to move; she couldn’t even reach out to touch the Lightning Controller’s body to close her eyes, which hadn’t shut. She could only watch helplessly as the now devil-transformed Contrelas approached her...

Just as Lu Pingping was about to be killed by Contrelas, Contrelas suddenly halted his advance and turned around to look in the direction of the altar. A soul ghost suddenly appeared from the dead Lightning Controller’s body on the ground, floating aimlessly towards the altar and being absorbed by it. After absorbing that soul, the altar underwent an amazing change; half of the runes on it transformed, their color becoming like human flesh, and the heartbeat coming from the stone became clearer, as if the entire altar was about to come alive.

Faced with this situation, Contrelas was a bit perplexed, but he quickly realized that this was the altar autonomously absorbing the soul power of those who died nearby. Originally, the altar could only passively accept the soul sacrifice of the lock opener, but once activated, since the soul sacrifice of the lock opener was delayed, the altar became impatient and started actively absorbing souls.

However, the soul of the Lightning Controller absorbed by the altar would not awaken it; it merely added to its soul reserve, allowing it to extend the time it could stay activated. Only by Contrelas killing Lu Pingping and completing the soul sacrifice process could the altar truly be revived.

Understanding the situation, Contrelas hesitated no more; he turned around and rushed towards Lu Pingping on the ground, swinging the Sword in the Stone with the intent to kill her. At this moment, an invisible ultrasonic wave suddenly emerged, striking Contrelas fiercely. The ultrasonic wave caused a violent explosion on Contrelas, sending him flying backward. Meanwhile, Lu Pingping, who was also at the center of the explosion, was protected by these ultrasonic waves and suffered no harm.

Then came the rapid flapping of wings, and suddenly a large group of bloodsucking bats flew in from outside the door. The flock of bats gathered and quickly transformed in front of Lu Pingping into a young Caucasian man wearing an ancient suit, who is exactly ’Who Am I.’

After regaining his memory, ’Who Am I’ realized he had urgent matters to handle, which is why he immediately left Dream Island, traveling as fast as possible to the Western Church Headquarters. After more than ten hours of continuous flight, he finally crossed half the Earth, arriving at the underground room of the Holy See Headquarters, appearing at the most critical moment to save Lu Pingping.

Once ’Who Am I’ glanced at the situation in the room, he immediately understood what had occurred. For Contrelas, who had transformed into a devilish form, there was no surprise, as if he believed Contrelas should precisely look like this. However, he was rather astonished when he saw the fallen body of the Lightning Controller on the ground.

To ’Who Am I,’ among God-Level experts, the most unlikely to die would be this Lightning Controller. The Lightning Controller already had a very long lifespan, having lived for over four hundred years and still with much longer to live; crucially, the Lightning Controller possessed lightning abilities, enabling her to escape instantaneously with her lightning even if she wasn’t a match for someone, and no one could kill her. Her death here implied only one possibility: that there was something here she cared about, preventing her from leaving, which is why Contrelas was able to kill her.

The strangest thing to ’Who Am I’ was that Lu Pingping was also at the Holy See Headquarters. When ’Who Am I’ left Dream Island, Lu Pingping was still there. When The United States of America and two other countries declared war on Dream Island, Lu Pingping even gave a speech and recently commanded a space counterattack operation from Dream Island. How long has it been since then? Yet Lu Pingping left Dream Island and arrived on the other side of Earth, even though the world’s fastest airplane could not have brought Lu Pingping across such a distance of over ten thousand kilometers in such a short time...

’Who Am I’ stood in front of Lu Pingping, separating her from Contrelas, and then he spoke: "Miss Lu Pingping, why are you here?"
