Chapter 186 Where Does the Light Shine?
"Light Magic Stone experiment recording initiated, combat data transmission in progress..."
The instrument emitted a cold, metallic sound as it scanned, the electric drive system operated, and the screen above displayed and analyzed all the captured images.
With a powerful, scorching punch, Red King charged forward, his body steaming. His arms outstretched, his aura intensified, and each step he took left a hot crater. Red King's offensive was unstoppable once he entered battle mode.
"The light energy response test shows that the light energy index continues to rise, increasing by 40% compared to yesterday..."
Even the wall, which had been enhanced by superpowers, was dented by Red King's powerful punch, and the scanner above it shook. The impact was beyond the system's calculations.
Red King, having missed with his punch, was not about to give up. He swung his arm to cool down while his eyes fiercely scanned his opponent's location.
In the blind spot where steam billowed out, obscuring Red King's vision, Yi Xuan had been waiting for this opportunity. He gathered power in his hands, conjuring chains of light energy that wrapped around Red King's legs and arms. The beatings Yi Xuan had endured these past few days hadn't been for nothing.
Red King's thermal energy, used for speed and power enhancement, can indeed greatly improve its combat power. However, after a period of use, there will be a short cooldown period during which Red King's mobility will be at a low point, which is the opportunity for Yi Xuan to discover.
Using the steam generated by the heat as cover, he launched a surprise attack in Red King's blind spot, binding its limbs and disrupting its center of gravity. Then, he used the power of the Titan to drag it forcefully, and Ichiro completed his first knockdown of Red King.
"In the data analysis, the compatibility of the Light Magic Stone has reached a record high, and the light energy reaction is abnormal. It is speculated that it is possible and is in the process of advancement."
"Should we lift the Red King's restriction order and destroy the Light Magic Stone?"
"Do not."
"Command accepted. Experiment complete. Red King's exit order has been issued."
Grandi looked at the giant on the screen, who was giving it his all, and chuckled to himself, wondering how much cleverness that human had used to achieve this.
Unfortunately, this victory that made him complacent was nothing more than a farce controlled by Grandi.
Red King received a message from his master and voluntarily withdrew into his card form to return to the Battle Device. Seeing this result, Ichiro was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. His efforts had paid off, and he had a chance to lead everyone to escape from Monster Island.
Every battle with Red King filled Yi Xuan with fear; its violence and swiftness were more terrifying than any nightmare.
But in order to bring everyone back home, Yi-hyun must overcome this nightmare; only he has a slim chance of defeating it.
Each fall and each failure was etched in Yixuan's mind. As long as there was hope of seeing the light of day again, Yixuan would definitely fight for it.
After Red King disappeared, King Goldras appeared, his eyes shining as he deactivated Ikki's transformation. He retrieved the Light Magic Stone and sent the humans back to his cell, where he was merely an experimental animal.
Humans have no power, no superpowers, and use their weakest bodies to indulge in the most unrealistic fantasies. The monsters on Monster Island look down on humans.
"This situation won't last long, just you wait and see."
Once again stepping onto the corridor leading back to his cell, Yixuan followed the worker ants' guidance as usual until they lowered their guard.
Seeing that the worker ants had lost interest in him, Yixuan turned his gaze to the window next to the corridor, where there was a checkpoint guarded by monsters and where sunlight could shine in.
In this territory dominated by ant-beasts, the doors of normal walking beasts would only restrict the crawling and working of six-legged worker ants. Therefore, many windows and doors on the ground and walls were modified for the use of the ant colony, which served as the hub for the monsters to transport supplies from the outside world.
Even with swarms of crawling monsters gathered at the windows, all Yixuan noticed was that beam of sunlight.
Even if his body is only briefly exposed to sunlight, Yixuan can still muster the courage to live on in this violent place.
For myself, and even more so for everyone's hopes.
"Yixuan, you're back! How did it go? Did they do anything to you?!"
"Are you alright? How did you get so badly injured again... Is that otherworldly person forcing you again...?"
Back in the dimly lit cell where he was imprisoned, Yixuan was greeted with a series of caring greetings.
A female mage took the initiative to approach Yixuan and hugged him tightly, unwilling to let go for a long time, wanting to hold on to this brief but precious warmth, even though she was also badly injured.
"I'm fine, Zimiao, we'll all be fine, I promise you."
Yixuan embraced his lover and made his promise with unwavering determination. Yixuan had promised Zimiao that he would take care of her for the rest of her life, just as Zimiao had promised him before.
"You two have really suffered. You've only been married a short time, yet you've encountered such a terrible thing..."
"It's alright, Captain, we still have a chance to escape. I've found an opportunity."
The dark space, the sealed prison cell, the only thing that allowed the prisoner to see his surroundings was an electric light, and all he could see were the four walls of the cell.
Though one's vision may be obstructed and one's body imprisoned, how can the depth of one's heart and the breadth of one's thoughts be bound by four walls?
The legendary miracle has occurred; the giant who wields light is between heaven and earth. Yixuan firmly believes in that elusive hope.
His indomitable gaze reveals his spirit and fortitude, exuding a heroic air whether in a dimly lit setting or on an electronic screen.
Looking at today's experimental data, Grandi had a new idea. The legendary Warrior of Light was indeed extraordinary, with top-notch abilities and willpower.
"Why isn't it someone with connections this time? That's strange. What kind of scheme is that old fox up to now?"
Grandi couldn't understand why a seemingly ordinary human could have such unpredictable growth potential. It had only been three days since he first came into contact with the Light Magic Stone, and now he was able to deal with Red King. So why did Grandi feel satisfied with this result?
"It's rare to see a true powerhouse emerge, but I never expected him to be buried in obscurity. If I don't push him a bit, he'll probably spend the rest of his life as a marginal figure in the Mage Guild."
"It turns out I was right. Three days have passed since these people went missing, and the guild still hasn't shown any intention of investigating. It seems these people were just pawns being used by the guild."
"It's pathetic, it disgusts me... We need to speed things up."
Shifting his focus from combat data, Grandi began his anti-magic experiments. Combining resources and data left over from the previous alien alliance with his own technological modifications, Grandi has developed new anti-magic materials.
Equip the ant beasts with anti-magic materials, train the ant warrior angels to cooperate with the ant swarm, and wait for the right time to overthrow the guild's arrogance in one fell swoop.
Let them see clearly who truly rules this world.
