Chapter 978: The Remnant Moon (Third Watch)

This subtle moonlight reminded Jeno of the infrared line of Catherine's sniper rifle, and Jeno followed the moonlight to find that on a floating island, a man with short black hair with a purple crescent tattoo on his right eye, was aiming at Leona with a magic weapon in his hand.

The weapon was elongated, resembling a sniper rifle, and the moonlight was shot from the muzzle.

"Surprisingly fast...... Ephelius! Jeno's eyes lit up, and the person he was waiting for had come to Diana.

Not only that, but he also lurked in the shadows and waited for the opportunity, and hit Leona hard in one fell swoop!

The celestial magic of the Giant God Peak made the boulder an island floating in the air, and seeing that Leona paid the price for her carelessness, she fell to the ground, and the rifle in Ephelius' hand was lost.

The moment he let go, Tumbi gradually dissipated, turning into a flash of moonlight and returning to the other end of the veil, hidden in the ancient temple in the spiritual realm. At the same time, another weapon quietly appeared in Ephelius's hand, the Falling Ming.

Falling Ming is different from other blades. In training, he uses slashing, thrusting and twisting moves. To use Falling Ming, his moves don't need to be changed - but the range of his attacks is greatly increased. A simple stab would unleash its power, and his martial arts and her magic overlapped like the moon.

The black orb that erupted attached to the floating island at its feet, against its four corners. The other black orbs fell into the battlefield beneath the black orbs, and landed in the middle of the battlefield, the Incinerator's weapons burning brighter in the darkness emanating from the falling light.

The black orb spewed out by Falling Light was not the same as Sindra's dark orb, the former was another manifestation of the moon's energy, while the latter was pure negative energy, and if the two collided, they would annihilate each other.

The samurai, who were rescued by Leona, raised their alarm and turned to meet them, only to find that they were all restrained in place by the black orb.

The force of the falling light dragged the floating island down, but Ephelius was not satisfied with the speed of the fall, he spewed several dark orbs in succession, and then he jumped up and stepped on the floating island, speeding up the fall, causing it to crash into the Lahorak team.

Terrified, they watched as the massive rocks smashed into their line, flattening their armor and crushing the flesh inside.

There is only one sun in the Land of Runeerrae, but there is more than one moon, one of which is in the physical realm and the other in the spiritual realm. Born in the rare spectacle of a moon conjunction (double moon overlapping), Ephelius' body was inherently as strong as the rock of the moon, and he jumped the moment the boulder fell to the ground, unloading the impact by tumbling.

Ephelius, who was blessed with the destiny of heaven, naturally could not live up to expectations. He worked tirelessly on the mystical Moonstone weapon, sweating and blood in his training in order to make others pay the same price in blood as he defended his faith. In terms of the intensity of training, Leona, who is strict with herself, and Diana, who is often subjected to corporal punishment, combine to train less than him.

After landing, he switched the heavy cannon in his hand into another weapon, the short scythe.

The survivors quickly dispersed across the clearing, slamming Ephelius with their lava spears.

The crescent-shaped pistol emitted a beam, and the power of the crescent moon instantly cut off the spears of the warriors, allowing Ephelius to dodge the mortal flank. As he weaved between the gaps in his attacks, Ephelius continued to slash with his broken spirits, harvesting the fragile necks of the veins until the danger was saved.

Two of the warriors did not attack Ephelius, but had already come to Leona's side when he cut into battle. They lifted the mortally wounded Leona from both sides and fled the battlefield with their Navigator Light.

The Ephelius don't talk much, and they do the same thing as the Sun Cult did to kill the Bright Moon Sect. He will not allow any heretic to escape, and mercy to his enemies is cruelty to himself.

His eyes were unusually cold, and he reached out and grabbed another weapon that had just emerged, the Ring Blade Folding Mirror. It was as if someone had told him that the weapon would appear there out of thin air through the veil.

The pitch-black leather gloves clinged to his fingers, and the folding mirror was pinched tightly between his thumb and forefinger. He flicked his right hand slightly, and the ring blade instantly split into four paths, leaving Ephelius with a ring blade between each of his fingers.

He flicked his right hand again, and the folding mirror came out of his hand. The four ringblades shot only one arc, and they soared through the air, slicing the last two Rahorac open necks with ease. Without support, Leona fell again, and then the Moonstone Ring Blade twisted and swirled towards Ephelius, where he caught it with one hand and threw it back into the spiritual realm.

In a matter of seconds, the battle was over.

After purging all of Lahorlac, Ephelius glanced coldly at Jeno's side, and seeing that they still didn't move, he walked alone to Leona, who had fallen to the ground.

"Are we waiting for such a terrible person? He killed many of his kind. Nami was frightened by Ephelius' roughness, and she came to shore without any intention of killing.

She came to get acquainted with humans with a friendly attitude, just like the mermaids who encountered humans falling into the water, not only would they not harm them, but they would also enthusiastically find the tide to push the people who fell into the water to the shore, as long as they did not expose their existence.

"Don't be surprised, the human world is full of struggle, not as harmonious as you mermen. We were indeed waiting for him, but you were wrong, he was not alone, but two. ”

"Two people?" Nami blinked her big eyes in confusion, but at first glance, Ephelius was a lone ranger.

Just as she was about to ask Jeno for clarification, Jeno turned to Ephelius.

"Don't kill her, Diana won't allow you to do this." He saw Ephelius come to Leona's side, pulled out a dagger and tried to wipe his throat, and immediately went up to stop him.

Ephelius turned his head to look at Jeno with a cold and confused gaze, as if he was thinking about whose name Diana was.

"Diana is the person your brother and sister are looking for, she is the Bright Moon Star Spirit." Jeno walked up to Diana without fear of the sun's fire, and the flames were extinguished by his approach, and the pale shield on her body had dissipated at this moment.

He gently lifted Diana's head and fed her the fountain of life. Ephelius watched all this thoughtfully, but his men did not stop, and the dagger in his hand pierced Leona's chest decisively, and the latter immediately let out a muffled snort of pain.

"Be careful!"

An ethereal female voice that only he could hear rang in his ears, and when he came to his senses, Jeno's fist slammed into his face.

It was a fist of speed that no skill could dodge, and in the moment of flying upside down, Ephelius's head buzzed, and Jeno's roar echoed in his ears:

"You bastard, did the Night Bloom not only poison you dumb, but also make you deaf?!"
