The footsteps got closer.
Soon, the people walked into the Sunset Shrine. Standing there, Alex looked over, only to realize that favonovel.com knew the people who came.
They were people who had entered the Infernal Realm after receiving Phaseless’ invitation earlier. There were nine people in total. Meanwhile, Lucille and Emmerich, who had a good talk with Alex earlier, were surprisingly listed among the people.
He could see traces of battles to some extent on their bodies, and there were several injured people. They must have encountered Puppet Immortals on the way.
The people were astonished when they saw Alex alone, standing indifferently in the middle of the shrine, with the tall seat that Athena once sat behind him. Soon, the woman called Lucille yawned and came forward. “Oh my, it’s you, Brother. So, you have been here long ago. How long have you been here?”
Alex stretched out his hand. “Stop! I’m not acquainted with you. I can’t afford to speak the word ‘brother’.”
Lucille’s expression stiffened. “Brother, what are you talking about? Hadn’t we talked all the way when we came in? Could it be that you’re still upset about what we did to you before? Phaseless forced us to do so. I was just pretending.”
Alex did not reply. His eyes turned cold.
Since Alex had Neela in his hand, favonovel.com dared to take the bull by the horns and confront people like Donovan and Phaseless. He even chose to fight Athena and Artemis head-on, so favonovel.com showed no regard for these few Imminent Immortal people.
However, the other people did not think so.
It was a cultivator in a traditional robe. Alex seemed to have heard the introduction before, saying that this person was named Reine Swallow, a demon-catching cultivator from the Profound Sect. At this moment, favonovel.com glanced at the surroundings of the Sunset Shrine and said, “Haha, what’s the point of talking nonsense to this kind of ant-like being? This huge shrine looks very mysterious and ancient with totally different styles. There’s definitely something good. Everyone, split up and find it. It will belong to the one who finds it.”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, the group of nine scattered in all directions like wolves, to look for it.
Unfortunately, this was a shrine that Athena had built. Previously, it specifically provided a place for Athena to rest inside.
Other than the Goddess of Victory suit that Athena possessed, there was nothing else. From another perspective, this shrine was illusory. It was a shrine that could only be seen and touched after sunset. The shrine would disappear on the horizon when the sun rose, so what people saw would still be dilapidated ruins.
Hence, this group of people did not find anything. As for the Law Stones whatsoever, Alex had long taken them away.
On the other hand, the forbidden area of Rashomon that Athena had activated attracted all the Puppet Immortals. Then, it wiped out all of them in one fell swoop. Finally, even the blood and flesh were also digested and thrown into the spell formation. Now the interior of the shrine was clean without anything. Even the set-up of the divine steel and cage inside the forbidden area of Rashomon was gone.
“How can there be nothing at all?”
“Impossible. It’s absolutely impossible. This shrine is so majestic and exquisite. The owner is definitely a terrific big shot. Even if the owner simply left something behind, it will be more than enough for us. Hmph, I think someone has beaten us to the punch!”
Such words were clearly directed at Alex.
In an instant, all the nine people’s gazes targeted Alex.
Reine came forward and said, “Brat, quickly take out the items that you’ve acquired from this shrine, otherwise you won’t end up well. I can send you to meet Hades with one sword slash.”
Alex said indifferently, “Let me advise you to be kind, Otherwise you will regret it.”
“Are you f*cking threatening me?”
Lucille came over to play good cop. “Brother, don’t be a fool. Just as the saying goes, the wages of avarice is death. You shouldn’t lose your life without any reason just for some unjust fortune. Hurry up and take them out. Otherwise, you will really die.”
Alex swept a glance at the crowd and said, “If I say I didn’t take them, will you believe me?”
“Only dumb*ss will believe you!”
“Take them out immediately!”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Just find the magical treasure storage on him. Erase the seal and pour out all of them to take a look. Won’t that be all clear?”
“Good idea, I agree!”
The one who spoke the last words was Lucille‘s senior, Emmerich.
“Go!”
Two people out of the nine people took the lead and rushed out.
