Chapter 812: Chapter 481: Rain of Light (Part 2)
"You’ve advanced to the Fourth Rank?!" Johnson murmured in disbelief.
Colin said nothing more, merely looking at him with indifferent eyes.
Johnson shivered suddenly, "You want to kill me?"
"I am a Supreme Council Member, from the esteemed Carmen Family of the Yista School... Have you thought about the consequences of killing me?!"
Colin raised an eyebrow slightly, and said coldly, "What, you can kill me, but I can’t kill you?"
On the front line, he had seen countless wizards who fought against the Divine for the destiny of the Wizard Clan, all of them admirable.
Yet in the rear, some wizards were still engaging in petty machinations... Truly infuriating!
Whoosh!
Before Johnson could say more, a crimson light shot out like a dragon, completely dissolving Johnson!
Everything happened so quickly.
Whether it was Jennifer’s group or Lillian and Atbolde, they were all still wrapped up in the impending crisis.
Johnson’s group of five wizards was a power they fundamentally could not contend with.
But in the face of Colin, this mighty force melted away like snow before a blazing fire!
"On this outing, I made some discoveries and have already broken through to the Fourth Rank."
Colin turned to explain to the astonished crowd.
Then, as if realizing something, he suddenly looked ahead of Jennifer.
An invisible spiritual light flew out from the ashes of Johnson’s corpse there.
It was not a soul; it looked more like some means of communication.
Colin watched calmly as the spiritual light quickly fled into the distance, not intervening.
Just as he was about to head to the Extreme North, he would settle everything.
"Lord Colin, this is for you."
As if remembering something, Jennifer was startled for a moment, then suddenly pulled out a memory crystal and handed it to Colin.
Colin was slightly stunned, taking the crystal, which contained a complete recording from Johnson’s arrival up until he launched an attack on Colin, where it abruptly ended.
Although it didn’t capture the entire process, in some ways it was better than a full record.
"Well done," Colin praised.
If he didn’t have enough strength, this memory crystal wouldn’t be very useful.
Although Johnson was at fault first, if the Carmen Family behind him wanted to pursue it, they wouldn’t need any reason.
But now that he was powerful enough, this crystal could at least help him stand on the moral high ground.
"I didn’t expect so many ill-intentioned people to appear in Tilamei after I left..." Colin said softly, putting away the crystal, "Thank you all for your hard work."
"But after today, there’s no need to worry about this matter anymore."
Colin’s voice was calm and serene, yet extraordinarily powerful.
Having spoken, he strode toward the palace door, then soared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
Under World Perception, the entirety of Tilamei was still covered in blight.
Colin looked over all of Tilamei with his crimson-gold eyes and gently extended his right hand.
Swoosh!
Crimson light surged from him, these flames of flowing light suddenly transforming into a crimson rain of light, dropping like arrows onto the "blights" across all of Tilamei!
Simultaneously, Colin willed it.
A circle of golden-red light suddenly appeared at his feet.
This circle was complex and exquisite in design, incredibly solid, as if forged from red-gold, with no hint of illusion.
’Knight Aura, to reach the Fourth Rank and become such a unique existence...’
Colin’s heart moved slightly, divine will surged, reaching the circle at his feet.
Swoosh!
The Knight Aura began to expand around him, seemingly slow but actually incredibly fast.
Moments later, it caught up with the crimson rain, first transmitting Colin’s constructed message to every human on the Tilamei Plain.
Thoughts like dew and lightning, the Knight Aura driven by divine will evidently inherited this characteristic!
And so, in that instant,
everyone on the Tilamei Plain had the same image and the same voice appear in their minds.
Colin, with crimson-gold eyes standing high above, surrounded by mighty light flames, was coolly saying:
"Dark currents stir in Tilamei, many ill-intentioned individuals lurk on the plain, today I will rain light upon them, eradicating them completely!"
Just as the image in the minds of the citizens faded.
Whoosh!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
They saw the endless red rain of light falling down, and before they could fully react, they were in a panic. But the next moment, they realized those red raindrops weren’t targeting them.
Screams came from the nearby alleys or hidden houses.
The figures they had seen often or rarely, under the attack of the light rain, were as insignificant as ants. No matter how they resisted, they could only welcome death.
Only those with less malicious intentions barely escaped the disaster but were still bound in place by ropes formed from the rain, unable to move.
At this moment, scenes from just now suddenly flashed through the minds of the citizens.
They finally understood.
"No wonder that family didn’t leave the house after moving in a few days ago, turns out they were spies sneaking into the Tilaimei Plain with ill intentions!"
"Luckily, the Lord of Tilamei discovered it early, otherwise living next to such people would truly be..." Someone said with lingering fear.
"The Lord of Tilamei is indeed invincible!" More people praised.
Such a magnificent scene is truly awe-inspiring!
Among the lower citizens, almost no one doubted Colin’s words, especially the serfs.
Although they didn’t know the full story,
they knew that it was the Lord of Tilamei who saved all the farmlands, and it was the Lord of Tilamei who reformed many industries so they wouldn’t starve.
Even the school they set up a while ago gave everyone an opportunity to rise up!
In terms of reputation, Colin is the first among all previous Lords of Tilamei!
...
High above the sky.
Colin gently exhaled a breath of turbid air.
Causing such a big commotion, even now, makes him feel somewhat strained.
But this also gave him a clearer understanding of the power he currently possessed.
He indeed had broken through to the Fourth Rank, and not just any Fourth Rank.
However, he didn’t have a clear understanding of the specific strength of a Fourth Rank Wizard, so he wasn’t sure of his exact level.
Yet, given his current strength, he estimated that it was at least equivalent to a Fourth Rank Advanced Wizard!
Even if he dared to be a bit confident, he might already be able to wrestle with Neustadt!
The latter was one of Neustadt’s strongest, and he had broken through less than half a month ago!
This was the qualitative change brought by the fusion of spirit and body, the integration of blood energy and magic power into one day!
Whether it’s Divine Will or the red energy formed by the fusion of blood energy and magic power, they are far superior to pure spiritual power and magic power!
And this is what Colin relied on to dare to overturn the table.
From Blackstone Island to here, he faced difficulties, faced desperate situations, and encountered life-and-death crises more than once...
But no matter what, he always tried his best to improve his strength, not wasting a single moment or opportunity.
And now, he finally possessed considerable power.
In this world where strength is revered, he no longer needed to swallow his anger, no longer needed to force himself to ignore the injustices and filth!
Colin quietly hovered in the air.
He didn’t know how much time had passed.
On the distant horizon.
A powerful presence gradually emerged.
That figure flew at an extremely fast speed. After Colin’s gaze captured it, it soon reached in front of him.
It was a middle-aged wizard in a gray robe, with a stern and serious expression.
"Who are you?"
At this moment, he looked at the imposing Colin, a flicker of apprehension in his eyes, and asked in a deep voice.
Colin slightly narrowed his eyes; the wizard’s reaction after arriving was not quite what he expected.
He paused and took out his Councilman Badge and Lord of Tilamei credential, and calmly replied:
"Colin Leonard, the administrator of this plain."
"So it’s Councilman Colin." The wizard was slightly taken aback and asked, "Have you advanced to a Fourth Rank Wizard?"
Colin nodded.
The surprise in the middle-aged wizard’s eyes deepened. He didn’t know much about Colin and was not present when Colin assumed the role of Councilman.
But he had heard of the name of this extraordinary wizard from a humble origin.
At that time, he was only at the Second Rank, although he advanced to Third Rank shortly after becoming a Councilman.
But how long ago was that?! And this wizard had already broken through to Fourth Rank!
After a good while of surprise, the middle-aged wizard remembered his purpose here, paused, and asked:
"I am Chris. I just received the... death information of Councilman Johnson, and the location is right here. May I ask if you know anything about it?"
"I killed him," Colin calmly replied.
