"Hmph!"

Feixiao fired another piercing shot from her bow, attacking Phantylia with all her might, who has managed to get her hands onto another body provided by the tree of Abundance, this one, however, is inferior compared to the one she harnessed on Luofu before, mostly due to the poor handling of power, especially when Phantylia isn't used to this newfound power.

The healing capabilities which the body possesses is truly indomitable, comparable to that of a vessel with the grace of the Abundance, yet, when coming face to face to an Emanator of the Hunt, all things seemed to be heavily restricted as the Lacking General refuses to give her even a second of regenerating.

"Foul foxian. Let's see how you take this...!" - Phantylia raises her hand, channeling the power of the Destruction, creating spheres of firestorm seemingly out of nowhere around Feixiao, circling around her and then quickly closed in onto her position, yet the general didn't even have to use much effort to escape these attacks that would have been lethal had it been Jing Yuan fighting her instead.

The impact of the two Emanators' clash was enough to shake the entire Luofu to its core, the water in the Scalegorge Waterscape even started to evaporate thanks to Phantylia's heat and flame based attacks.

And as such, all the available hands the Luofu has at its disposal now are all gearing up, preparing to join the battle against the Lord Ravager. The Ten-Lords, the Cloud Knights, the Vidyadhara, even the one who left it all behind (his leisure time), Jing Yuan was observing the situation from afar, the only thing stopping him from joining the battle directly, was because the he still yet to receive the prediction from Fu Xuan, about the Lord Ravager's goal right now, was it simply to retrieve a vessel... Or...?

"General!" - Fu Xuan's voice was transferred through a tablet held by a Cloud Knight standing nearby, it carries a hint of urgency and terror. "Call off the attack now! Get Feixiao back now!"

Feixiao swung her waraxe, which literally threw a swirling tornado towards her opponent, which was enough to knock the colossal figure out of their balance briefly, which was enough for her to close in for a clean kill, yet she failed to do so, for she was stopped by an unexpected force.

An incarnation.

The manifestation of a literal concept.

An Aeon.

"The Ruin Author? No-"

Feixiao was knocked back, miles away from the battlefield in an instant, it was a miracle that she had not instantly evaporated from being within the presence of an Aeon, but it was not only her to be lucky, but the entire Luofu is seemingly lucky as of now, yet everyone who witnessed it are in for a shock right now.

"Wait... That's not the Ruin Author." - One of the Cloud Knights from afar said.

"That's the douchebag who helped an Annihilation Gang to assassinate IX!" - One of the Judges said.

Feixiao, who was just barely covered from the crash, tried her best to stand up, yet she could feel some of her bones fractured from the impact... And then, she suddenly smiled, then it turned into a laugh, out of her own control, even everyone who saw the sight of the Aeon started to burst into laughter as well, with some already on their knees, hurting their stomach from the laughter.

Not even Phantylia was spared from the laughter, yet she tried her best to utter the words.

"Hahaha... Y- you... Why... hahahaha... why....hahahahah"

"Hohohohoh..." - Aha picked Phantylia up with no efforts. "I find this funny~"

Then the Aeon pressed Phantylia with both of THEIR hands, shrinking her size to barely bigger than a Howling Casket, then stuffed the Lord Ravager into a cannon that seemingly appeared out of nowhere, and then lit it up, sending Phantylia away with a bang.

Then Aha looked at everyone else, almost everyone had collapsed due to laughing, except for Qingque, for she was sleeping the entire time far away.

"Okay you guys see nothing~ see ya~"

Aha then vanished, as sudden as THEY appeared, leaving everyone else in confusion. Overall, barely any collateral damage was made, just that everyone had a tummy ache and back pain due to laughing too much, as well as some buildings that Feixiao came crashing through.

But since the word from Luofu reached the Marshal first, the entire Xianzhou Alliances were put on high alert, for a Lord Ravager could potentially still be roaming out there with a vessel directly harvested from Ambrosial Arbor, and wields the immortality for the Abundance now, the Alliance shall not rest until they verify the death of Phantylia - Who earlier appeared as a fraud, now has posed a significant threat to their cause.

"We are not going to ever do this again." - Akivili said to Rubert. "Hmm... It's been an entire chapter without Stelle, where did she go, I wonder..."

"Shall I send out a distress call?" - Rubert beeped.

"No." - Akivili stopped him. "We cannot risk anyone finding out my existence here."

"You always talk about how others discovering your presence here is a bad thing, but how come can Stelle be fine with it? You know she can't keep it a secret to herself, even if she wishes to." - Rubert beeped.

Akivili stayed quiet for a moment.

"Heh, you'll see. It's something that's so Nameless that someone else wouldn't understand."

"Never thought you'll also be the Aeon of friendship."

"Shut it you, now boot up some of Xipe's le-"

"Intriguing... Those events are yet to be included in Herta's database, I guess it really proves that you are who you claim to be." - Ruan Mei tapped on the monitor, it has been a few days ever since she rescued a strange girl from the brink of death, and they have exchanged several pieces of information to each other so far... Some of which were unbelievable, even to the #81 of the Society. "I guess the fall of the market really did bring out more things than we could have ever expected..."

"There are still more out there. Thousands. I do not know how much more has been found ever since I was captured." - The girl said, her tone betraying her anxiety and a hint of responsibility. "You are one of the Geniuses, you surely must know anything right?"

"... Unfortunately, I do not. Being attentive in such matters is... Not my expertise." - Ruan Mei's words saddened the hopeful girl, but then she added. "However, some of my other colleagues might be able to help you, if possible, we might be able to pinpoint the exact location for some."

"Ah... That's delightful then." - The girl thanked the Genius. "Ah... I have one more favor to ask... If you don't mind."

"Sure, anything I can help you with." - Ruan Mei accepted helping her, not doing it out of goodwill, but because this relationship with the girl does benefit her greatly as a Genius, and will also play a crucial role in her research of special lifeforms...

"Is the Astral Express still... Active? I... I want to contact them."
