---- Chapter 3020 Originally, the assembled powerhouses could have reinforced and stabilized the passage together. However, Christopher could not wait any longer because his mind was set on joining forces to eliminate Reginald, the biggest variable, before entering. In the end, Reginald''s true strengthpletely exceeded Christopher''s expectations. Reginald was a demigod, on the same level as Christopher himself! Christopher unleashed a massive spherical construct, within which something like a divine dragon seemed to coil and swim.
It then collided violently with Andrew''s suddenly erupting sword light. The collision sent a violent shockwave outward, and even the passage itself swayed several times, as if it were on the verge of copsing. Christopher''s face turned pale as he felt his body nearly torn apart by the unstable passage. His figure was fully pulled into the passage. Even then, he did not forget to turn back and re at Andrew ---- with undisguised hatred. "You little bastard.
When Ie out, I''le for you." Andrew gripped his sword and leaped down from the cliff face, studying the vortex with a calm expression. He had already used his full strength in that sword strike just now. Christopher appeared unharmed, but Andrew had caught sight of his trembling arm. Clearly, even though the old bastard was incredibly powerful, the blow had not been easy to take. The vortex began to shake and copse inward toward its center. Reginald said quickly, "Andy, take Nyx and leave.
Don''t follow me." Without waiting for Andrew to respond, he threw himself directly into the vortex. In that final nce, Andrew clearly saw the resolve in his father''s eyes. The Veiled Paradise was very likely and of death. Without any extra words, Andrew understood his father''s intentions. However, driven by the need to learn whether Eleanor was still alive, he still plunged in without hesitation. Several more figures shed past and followed into the passage. Then, the vortex rapidly contracted, vanished into nothingness, and disappearedpletely.
---- Andrew took a deep breath and turned to find Nyx. Just moments ago, he had an impulse to follow Reginald inside. Nheless, he could not leave Nyx here alone. More importantly, a bold n had already taken shape in Andrew''s mind. The Veiled Paradise, as the world''s final transcendent power, remainedpletely unknown. Perhaps it truly held heaven- defying opportunities, or even chances to achieve enlightenment and immortality. No one could say for sure, but Christopher, Marcato, Waylon, and the others were all gambling on it.
At their level of martial power, gambling was the only path left. Maybe an entirely new world was truly waiting just beyond that door. On the other hand, Christopher and the others were bold precisely because of their strength. The Veiled Paradise, the legendary final sanctuary of the world, might hold immense danger. Yet, they all believed they would not be the ones to fall Andrew, however, had his own ns. He wanted to find his mother, but at this critical moment, he had to remain calm. Hence, letting Reginald enter alone was the best possible choice.
What Andrew needed to do now was something else entirely. He ---- needed to infinitely increase his own strength. Ideally, he would dominate the entire Ounds and establish an invincible army. At that point, he couldpletely dictate the entire world''s power structure once again. By then, even if he wanted to open The Veiled Paradise''s entrance again, it would not be difficult. After experiencing so much, Andrew was no longer that hot- blooded youth from years ago.
His heart had not grown cold, but his responsibilities had grown heavier, and his approach to confronting the world had gradually changed. Only power, absolute power that ruled over all, could resolve every obstacle. Andrew returned to Nyx''s side. The two of them hovered in the air, looking down below. There, pairs of eyes had already turned bloodshot. The leader was Kaelen, the werewolf king. His massive, powerful frame was draped in a billowing cloak. His cold, vertical pupils locked onto Andrew as he hissed.
"I couldn''t kill Reginald, but you will die." Nyx said, "Kaelen didn''t enter the vortex. Right now, the vampires, werewolves, and sirens here all seem to be under hismand. What should we do?" ---- Andrew replied calmly, *Kill them."
