Aaron and Glenn were about to step forward to finish off the two struggling "Secrets Supplicants" and then deal with the researchers writhing in pain on the ground.
Suddenly, Aaron had a strange feeling, but it flashed away. The red moon mark on his wrist also heated up slightly at that instant. Aaron looked solemnly into the depths of the basement.
Aaron gestured to Glenn with his eyes, telling him to deal with the two "Secrets Supplicants."
Smelling the scent of blood wafting from the depths of the basement and feeling the increasingly dense malice, Aaron reached into his Pregnant and took out the "Sun Chaser Scepter."
Ever since he learned from that Aurora Order member that the ultimate goal of this underground experiment was to receive the True Creator's divinity, even though he knew the experiment was far from successful, and even the results were minimal,
considering the risks involved and the restraining relationship with the Sun Pathway, Aaron prayed to himself and bestowed the "Sun Chaser Scepter" from the Nation of Disorder.
Holding the staff, which was comparable to a Sealed Artifact in a semi-sealed state, Aaron felt the burning sensation in his palm and his body's rejection. He exhaled, and his spirituality began to pour frantically into the staff.
The staff, which seemed to be made entirely of gold, flickered with light, condensing into a scorching white sphere at its tip. Aaron felt the consumption of his spirituality, his eyes still fixed on the depths of the basement.
Suddenly, two masses of shadow were thrown from the depths of the Darkness. Aaron raised a finger and did not easily use the staff. Two beams of light from the depths of the sun ring struck the two masses of shadow, sending them flying against the wall.
Aaron looked closely and saw that they were two charred lumps of flesh. Even though they were somewhat burnt, he could still vaguely make out that they were made of two arms, with protruding finger bones visible.
A distorted, massive figure, accompanied by an indescribable roar and emanating shadows, slowly wriggled out from the depths of the basement.
Two heads, one male and one female, were strangely distorted and joined together. Both mouths emitted eerie, painful roars.
Internal organs were exposed, and bloody tendrils of flesh adhered to the surface like Fluff. The Monster's lower body was shrouded in shadow, turning into a dark gray, sticky, unknown liquid-covered carpet of flesh.
If Barry Gezar were standing here, he would surely recognize that these two heads belonged to Experiment Subjects 1 and 4.
Looking at the Monster before him, and the distorted, evil thoughts emanating from the black patterns covering its entire body, Aaron immediately abandoned the idea of having Astolfo's ghost possess him. In this situation, he would only be directly corrupted.
The surrounding researchers, who had been writhing in pain on the ground due to "Psychic Piercing," rose with blank expressions after hearing the eerie, painful roars and walked towards the Monster.
Even the two "Secrets Supplicants" who were about to be subdued seemed to have their potential ignited. Their eyes turned blood red, shadows gathered at their feet, and various strange abilities were forcibly unleashed. Glenn was temporarily unable to take them down.
Aaron activated his spiritual vision and saw even more clearly: a layer of shadowy curtain emerged from the black patterns on the Monster's body, spreading outwards.
And at the center of all the black patterns was a mottled, incomplete seed located on the Monster's chest. This was a product of the failed assimilation of the True Creator's divinity, and it seemed to want to envelop the entire basement.
Without hesitation, Aaron risked spiritual corruption and used his remaining spirituality to fully unleash "Psychic Piercing," striking the Monster along with the "Holy Light" from the sun ring.
The shadows were temporarily dispelled, and the Monster's distorted, wriggling forward movement was noticeably paused for a moment due to "Psychic Piercing." The mottled, incomplete seed on its chest glowed faintly.
Seizing the opportunity, Aaron raised the Sun Chaser Scepter in his hand, activating his spirituality and pointing it from afar at the mottled, incomplete seed on the Monster's chest.
The scorching white sphere condensed at the tip of the "Sun Chaser Scepter" suddenly solidified and contracted into a pure, scorching white spear of extreme purity, emitting waves of pressure as it shot straight out.
The Unshadowed Spear struck the Monster's chest and expanded into a miniature Sun bright enough to illuminate the entire basement. The pure, scorching light dispelled the filth and gloom.
Waves of hot air, carrying a burnt smell, swept over, causing Aaron's weakened body to stumble slightly.
The researchers, who had originally been expressionless, fainted directly to the ground, blown against the wall by the heatwave. Without the Monster's buff, the "Secrets Supplicants" were quickly dealt with by Glenn.
Aaron, pale-faced, condensed brilliant light in his palm and picked up the crystalline skull on the ground, which was covered in dark patterns and exuded a strong ominous aura. With a sizzling sound, he placed it into a specially prepared iron box.
Aaron felt that his spirituality was almost depleted, and when he used "Psychic Piercing" to attack the Monster, his spirituality inevitably came into contact with those black patterns, also getting corrupted quite a bit.
Without explaining anything to Glenn, Aaron simply gave a few instructions, reminding him to bring the two black-robed individuals from Iron Gate Street back to MI9.
He quickly exited the basement and went to the corner. Aaron cut his wrist, and a large amount of fresh blood flowed into the "Sun Chaser Scepter," calming its side effects. He then did not linger, activated Spirit World Travel, and returned directly to his bedroom.
Ignoring Evelyn's coquettishness, Aaron held his aching forehead and entered the partition. After a series of practiced operations, Aaron appeared on the throne within the magnificent palace.
He put the "Sun Chaser Scepter" back into the clutter pile. With the surging dark gold mist, a pure black mist emerged from Aaron's body, turning into tiny particles, which were stirred and disintegrated by the dark gold mist.
After quickly clearing the corruption, Aaron, whose spirituality was on the verge of exhaustion, immediately returned to reality, exited the partition, and instantly collapsed onto the bed.
-----------------
Just as the Monster's chest was struck by the Unshadowed Spear, in the East Borough of Backlund, in a dark alley about 8 kilometers away from 112 Torso Street,
a dense, pitch-black shadow suddenly expanded and transformed into Lanevus, who had a full forehead, black hair, brown eyes, and almost circular glasses.
He suddenly stopped, no longer heading to another Aurora Order stronghold guarded by Mr. A, and turned his head to look in the direction of 112 Torso Street.
At this time, Lanevus's eyes were not as pitch-black as when he had just awakened in the basement. Only his left eye was completely dark without a visible white, while his right eye gradually returned to normal, revealing cunning and treachery.
The black patterns on Lanevus's body also receded and disappeared, and the full black seed that had been integrated into his chest also shriveled.
The moment Aaron stepped into the basement, the True Creator's divinity residing in Lanevus keenly sensed the aura of depravity.
It actively stripped off part of its power and integrated it into other carriers in the basement to attract the attention of the person related to Dark, forcibly using shadow teleportation to leave that basement.
It was also because of the excessive loss of power, and after the part of the divinity integrated into the Monster's body was destroyed, it suffered a backlash as a result.
It was even about to fall into slumber, no longer having the strength to suppress Lanevus's consciousness.
