Chapter 691: The Dark Omen that Destroys the Sun and Stars

After defeating three six-winged Burning Angels, Link quickly left the scene. Half a minute later, he arrived at the new intersection between the Yan Empire and Aragu Empire: Raging Dragon River.

Crash, whoosh. The river’s crashing waves were thunderous like thousands of galloping horses. Standing on the riverbank, he could feel the ground trembling.

Upriver and downriver of the Raging Dragon River were vastly different. There were many cliffs and water was abundant, thus creating this scene as it tumbled down.

The river wasn’t just fast, but it was also very wide. From what Link could see, the surface was at least half a mile wide. Steam rose up from the surface, hiding the river.

Link sensed carefully and got a basic idea of the Raging Dragon River’s secret. He couldn’t help but sigh. There are signs of Mana operation. This is a perfect fusion of magic and natural principles. What a great representation of man and nature as one.

As soon as he thought this, he felt a slight energy surge from the near distance. It wasn’t malevolent though. He had an idea of the comer’s identity.

Link stood by the river and waited.

A few seconds later, dark blue light pierced through the heavy mist and landed by the river. It was a Warrior in dark blue crystal armor. Seeing Link, he saluted in the Araguan way and smiled. “Master, you have great vision.”

His smile wasn’t submissive. His crystal-blue eyes sparkled with confidence.

Seeing the man’s appearance, Link already knew his identity. Since the man called him “Master,” he guessed that the man also knew him. They hadn’t met before, so the Snow Mountain Archmage must have told him.

This meant that the Archmage already knew of his arrival. Similarly, the Inferno Archmage must know too. Neither had appeared yet, so this could only mean that the Snow Mountain Archmage was fighting the Inferno Archmage so he couldn’t come.

Thinking of this, Link knew that he should be safe now.

With his current power, other than people above the Archmage level, he didn’t fear any Aragu Warriors. Even if many people surrounded him and he couldn’t beat them all, he could use spatial magic and escape easily.

He returned the Frost Warrior’s salute. “I heard that there are six powerful Frost Warriors in the Aragu Empire. Each one has top skills in the realm. May I know your name?”

The Aragu Empire and Yan Empire were opposites. The Yan Empire had Lava Knights while Aragu had Frost Knights. They were at the same level.

Hearing Link’s words, the Frost Warrior puffed up his chest even more and said seriously, “I am Therodeau Heather, the Absolute Zero. The Snow Mountain Archmage, Grandmaster Iyr told me about your arrival and guided me here. You came much sooner than I’d expected.”

“Grandmaster” was another name for Archmages because once someone reached Level-19, they would start a clan and have many students.

“Oh, you’re Therodeau. I brought the thing. Do I give it to you or hand it to the Archmage?” Link asked. The Divine Fragment was difficult. If he could, he would definitely toss it to the Frost Knight and get out of there.

But reality disappointed him. Therodeau shook his head. “The Grandmaster told me that you must give it to him personally. Our responsibility is to escort you there safely.”

This made Link furrow his brows. “Is the journey dangerous?”

If they were regular people, the Yan Empire might send someone powerful into the Aragu Empire to attack them. However, they were at the top level, and the Aragu Realm was their turf. How could anything happen?

Therodeau shook his head. “I don’t see any danger, but Grandmaster said that he feels a surge of darkness is corroding the realm. This darkness will cover the sky and earth, destroying the sun and stars. Unfortunately, he’s caught up with the Inferno Archmage. Otherwise, he would definitely come welcome you personally.”

This deepened Link’s brows. “Surge of darkness? Cover the sky and earth, destroying the sun and stars? Is there more information?”

Therodeau didn’t reply immediately. Looking at the Slanda Plains behind Link, he said, “Master, it’s not safe here. How about we cross the river first? I will explain to you on the road.”

“Sure.”

Therodeau whistled. The Raging Dragon River instantly calmed a lot. The mist that had covered the surface now showed a clear passageway.
