Chapter 676 The Beginning of a New Era!
On that day in the year 888 of the Magicians Age, the entire north of the continent faced the first blood moon in the continent's history.
On that day, the entire sky north of the Polaris Realm turned red, while stormy winds brought the terror of a new era of uncertainty to the rest of these lands.
No one had been able to stop Demonix's vampires in time. Now that the sacrifice planned for the start of The Purification had been carried out without a hitch, there was no stopping what was about to happen!
And the entire continent felt it!
...
Somewhere in the Vinia Empire, in the far north of the continent...
In this place, there was a great city known as the City of Angels, which only members of the Congregation of Revelation could enter.
That was the majestic headquarters of the largest magical organization on the continent!
However, even in this place where the strongest of the greatest religions of the Polaris Empire was located, 5th-stage individuals could be seen on the city's outskirts looking pessimistically at the sky at that moment.
In particular, on top of the tallest building in the city, an elderly-looking man, who was dressed in simple clothes but had an extremely powerful cultivation, stood in front of a balcony and watched the red light that made the entire sky in that area glow the same color.
"Sigh!"
A sigh left the mouth of this old man, whom everyone on the continent could easily recognize by his voice, as he was the current Temple Master, the Archmage behind this great organization.
"We are in trouble." He muttered as he clenched his fists, and six pentagrams formed.
The configuration of these pentagrams was as follows: yellow, yellow, green, green, green, and cyan!
As soon as he let his pentagrams appear, three cultivators of the same stage, but one level weaker than this old man, appeared on the outskirts of the place where he was standing.
"Temple Master." The three murmured, knowing that this was a call to war.
The Temple Master came straight to the point. "Our Sacred Devotees may have failed to stop the vampires. The worst has happened. Prepare the temple for war!"
...
Vicente and his people had entered this state four days ago, having begun to face the problems of the Seven Day Tsunami soon after.
Hordes of magical creatures tried to attack them, even considering their powers. For beings in a berserk state, stronger and weaker creatures were considered equal: threats.
Even if there were a big difference in cultivation, these beings affected by the phenomenon would attack indiscriminately.
As a result, groups like Vicente's would suffer even if they were powerful!
In the days since they entered the Chutha Dynasty, they had already experienced two major battles and killed more than 300 magical creatures on their way here.
But this afternoon, as they finished cleaning the blood of their enemies from their clothes and weapons on the battlefield, the group had felt a sudden change in the continent.
They all felt a chill run down their spines from one hour to the next as a faint red glow appeared in the sky.
At the same time, some elements in the environment scattered and became weaker, and others, especially negative ones, became more noticeable.
"That..." Lina looked around the area where many corpses of her group's enemies lay, not understanding what it was.
But Torne was very sensitive to changes. The moment this change appeared, he alerted Vicente. 'Master, this is because of The Purification. I think the vampires have succeeded in their plans.'
Gulp!
Vicente swallowed his saliva before muttering to his group. "The Purification has been implemented." He clenched his fists, feeling the urge to become stronger.
Everyone in his group looked at him as he remained silent momentarily, realizing this had to be the case.
They just hadn't expected that The Purification would cause even beings so far away from the Vampire homeland to feel such a phenomenon initiated by the Vampire sacrifice.
"This is worse than I thought," Rory muttered after a moment of silence from the group. "What are we going to do?"
Vicente said firmly. "There is no need to change our plans. In three more days, we'll reach the secret outpost of the place we're looking for. We'll continue with our plans and head for that place.
Once we've gathered what's there, we'll move on to the next state. In a little over two months, we can start searching for Casey's pentagram."
With that, the group soon moved on to the place they had already planned to go after they finished what they were doing in this area.
