Transcendent Dawn

ꨡ[6Ba~oAs0: Chapter 0790: Challenge (Please Subscribe) Chapter 790: Chapter 0790: Challenge (Please Subscribe) Moriqui Empire, Imperial Capital.

Once a City of Mercenaries, City of Fairness, after more than two hundred years of empire construction, it has undoubtedly become the political and economic heart of the entire continent.

Prosperous towering marble buildings are seen everywhere, merchants and nobles from all over the country fill the streets, humans and beastmen coexist peacefully, bringing an unusual prosperity to the city.

A carriage from the north, mixed with a merchant convoy, easily passed the city gate guards and entered the city.

The carriage window opened, revealing a young and handsome face.

“Tacro, Ilya…

I will prove to you…

the Empire’s legend…

haha…”

Phil murmured and closed the window.

…

Nighttime.

Deep within the lavish palace.

Jupiter sat quietly in a rocking chair, his gaze unfocused, lost in thought.

The constitution of a legendary warrior allowed him to retain his youthful appearance until his death.

Even so, his eyes were no longer young and filled with a sense of vicissitude.

A man who had sat on the emperor’s throne for two hundred years had seen all kinds of plots and schemes and was mature enough for his position.

Even to the point of reaching a state of indifference.

Even now, some of his descendants have begun to vie for power, displaying their ambitions in front of him like peacocks flaunting their feathers.

Jupiter knew exactly what they wanted.

But he was already tired.

So tired that he didn’t want to deal with these matters anymore.

Now, the only thing that he paid attention to was one thing.

“The second Acute Angle Monument…

has it finally emerged?”

Jupiter sighed deeply: “Magicians… a group of people wielding mysterious power, healing, fire, flying…”

He threw the intelligence report onto the table next to him, shaking his head, “This nation, it is about to change again!

No… I will not allow it!

The existence of transcendent powers is a mistake!

Human greed is limitless, once they gain transcendence, they want more…

magicians should not exist!”

As an emperor, as a legend, his restriction of transcendental powers and limitation of the Acute Angle Monument’s circulation, was not out of fear of someone surpassing him, but out of fear that his empire might plunge into turmoil again.

Gazing into the void, Jupiter’s eyes were somewhat unfocused: “Tavia, Dimon, Vanda…

wait a little longer, and I will join you after my last campaign…”

“Ha ha… who would’ve thought that our Emperor is such a sentimental person…”

Just then, a mocking voice suddenly sounded from midair.

“Who?”

“There is an assassin!”

“Protect His Majesty!”

Around, a large number of Superstring warriors emerged.

Many people looked up to see a mysterious man shrouded in a black cloak.

He hovered in mid-air, like a deity, casually looking down on everyone else.

“A magician?”

Jupiter raised his head, the corners of his mouth revealing a slight smile, “You’re very audacious…

to dare to appear before me.”

“I once killed a hero, now I want to see, the power of a legend!”

Phil’s voice was low and a ring of fire appeared around him.

He raised his magic wand, a phoenix-like fire bird materialized and dived down with a thunderous screech.

A wave of fire swept through, the plants in the garden withered instantly, engulfing Jupiter at the very center.

He seemed to make no move to dodge, directly taking the full brunt of the spell’s power.

Seeing this, a smirk appeared on Phil’s face.

This was his newly developed fourth-level spell – “Phoenix Flame”!

Based on the Firebird skill, it was several times more powerful, capable of melting gold and rocks, even a hero who was hit would surely die.

But the next moment.

Puff!

Phil’s eyes hardened, he saw a shadow charging through the flames and moving at a speed beyond his imagination, stopping right in front of him.

The flames burned on the figure, but they couldn’t harm him at all!

A legendary-level Superstring Warrior, completely different from any form he had seen before.

Its immunity and resistance had undergone a qualitative leap!

This was a realm Phil had never imagined until now.

Jupiter’s face was expressionless as he threw a punch.

It was a simple punch, but Phil’s numerous ‘Atmospheric Barriers’ were crudely broken, ‘Shift Field’ was useless, and the ‘Ring of Fire Resistance’ around him was directly blown away.

Phil tried to fly backwards, but it felt as if his chest had been hit by a battering ram, the crisp sound of bones breaking echoed.

He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell onto the ground like a decapitated kite, in the palace courtyard.

Jupiter descended, ignoring the looks of those who saw him as a god, as if he had done something insignificant.

“He’s not completely dead…

Find him, capture him!”

The emperor coldly gave his orders.

A large number of guards, as if awoken from a dream, rushed out.

“Flight huh?

It is indeed a troublesome ability…

The second Acute Angle Monument must be recovered as soon as possible!

I don’t have much time…”

Jupiter muttered to himself.

…

Mage Tower within Jack’s domain.

Ilya, who was meditating, felt a magical object on her body glow.

She opened it to find a husky breath sounded:

“Ilya…

I’m sorry…

It looks like I’m going to die…”

“Phil, where on earth did you go?”

Ilya quickly asked.

“I went to find the Mercenary Emperor…

Koff koff…

Legendary power, it’s terrible…

You must never fight him head-on, unless you can reach the Level 5 Magic Instructor’s Realm mentioned by our tutor…”

“But…

you don’t have to be afraid…

I can feel that his life force…

is near its end…”

Phil’s voice was intermittent, as if he was running at high speed.

“Phil…”

Ilya’s eyes reddened.

“The Flight Spell can’t effectively protect me, the burst of power from the Legend is simply astonishing…

Even though I made a mistake, I have no regrets…

Ilya, there’s something I’ve always wanted to…”

Snap!

The glow on the communication device faded, leaving Ilya’s expression even more wistful.

…

Imperial Capital, outskirts.

The pursuers stopped at the sight of the man in a black robe standing defiantly on the edge of a cliff.

“I…

Even in death…

must do it as a hero!”

Phil laughed heartily, ignoring the draining magic power and wounds on his body, he jumped straight off the cliff into the abyss.

Seeing this, the pursuers looked at each other.

“What now?”

“From here, it’s a definite death.”

“After all, he is capable of flight, even though it seems that he is severely injured, perhaps he can’t manage it.”

“Hurry down and search the body, this is the emperor’s orders…”

…

History records.

Empire’s history, 215.

One of the three Magic Inheritresses, ‘Fire Lover’ Phil, challenged the Mercenary Emperor and suffered a terrible defeat!

He fell into an abyss thousands of feet deep, subsequent searches did not find the body, his life and death remain uncertain, whereabouts unknown.
