371: Chapter 74 Fallen Heaven_3 371: Chapter 74 Fallen Heaven_3 Gongsun Ce raised both hands in surrender.
“I was wrong, my bad.
The newspaper was put away, revealing Dawn Knight’s silver hair.
She sipped her coffee and gently set the cup down.
“We were talking about the party at 7 p.m.”
Wait a sec…” Gongsun Ce rubbed his temples forcefully, and for some reason, he felt the frames of his glasses getting hot.
“Two Dragon Disasters,” Alandia added.
Right, now he remembered it all.
The Dim Abyss Disaster and the Colored Glaze Disaster, two Dragon Disasters that had arrived on the same day, had left them all exhausted but, thankfully, they had all succeeded in the end.
Gongsun Ce couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth in a smile.
“I can go back and boast about this for a lifetime, right?
Who’s going to the party tonight?
Of course, Big Brother and Orianna will be there, Rakael, who loves a crowd, will probably show up first, and Mr.
Gafri is likely going, too?”
“And Knight Yuliy and Knight Sara.”
“Oh God, not that!” Gongsun Ce said annoyed, “I hate Yuliy’s smug face.
It’s like he thinks I owe him a million.”
“Mind your language.”
“It’s not that I hold a grudge against him, it’s just…
I don’t jive with him, you get what I mean?”
Maybe the sunlight was too intense; his glasses’ frames were burning hot like fire.
He’d have to change them when he had the chance.
Gongsun Ce downed half the coffee in one gulp and unsurprisingly found that it hadn’t been sweetened.
He had a pessimistic view of the evening party and quickly changed the subject.
There’s still some time until the party, right?”
Alandia cut a slice of cake.
“It seems you have another suggestion.”
“After all this is over, I have to return to the Sky Capital, and who knows when we’ll see each other again,” he said, adjusting his collar and straightening his expression, trying not to look like a frivolous man.
Miss Alandia, would you be willing to go on a date with me before we part?”
Alandia set down her knife and fork and chuckled lightly.
“A gentleman would have chosen a more subtle way of saying it, like having dinner together or seeing a play.”
“What gentlemanly ways are there for a man raised in the Empire of the Sky Capital to learn?
Okay, I know you’re rejecting me, I’m heartbroken!”
“In fact,” the silver-haired lady quietly watched him, “I’d be delighted.”
Gongsun Ce shouted with excitement.
They had defeated the Dragon Disaster, Alandia had finally responded to him, and there was a party tonight – God, it was a perfectly explosive day!
Even the thought of arguing with that idiot Yuliy seemed worthwhile!
The only flaw was that his glasses’ frame, devilishly, grew hotter and hotter.
Perhaps he should adjust the angle of his glasses…
Gongsun Ce touched his glasses.
The heat from the metal frame traveled through his skin to his brain, casting a flaw in his pleasant mood.
It felt like he had forgotten something – what was it, exactly…
“How could Yuliy be at the party?” Gongsun Ce’s fingers trembled.
“And Miss Sara couldn’t possibly…
This store has been ruined for a long time, I remember…
you never accepted my invitation…
True memory drained the color from his face; Alandia’s features abstracted like oil paint, everything in his vision turned red, and his brain throbbed with agony.
“How could there be a party, Supibia was…
destroyed on that day!!”
He clutched his head in pain, forcing himself to open his eyes.
The heat from the frames awakened the truth in his mind, causing everything before his eyes to crack and shatter like a mirror.
His consciousness shuttled through endless darkness, moving forward toward a glint of gold…
Gongsun Ce jolted awake, his eyes snapping open.
Zero Island, Weiyuan City, Red Mage, Fallen Heaven…
His memory rushed back like a tidal wave, and he remembered everything in reality.
The Red Mage’s Creation Realm had trapped him in an Illusion Realm, the power of which was so strong that not even An Xin’s Heart Phase Weapon could fully shield it.
He reached into his pocket and took out Yidou Nengmai’s bean.
The golden bean radiated warmth like fire, and it was this power that steered him back to reality in the end.
He hurriedly looked around, the chaotic scene rendering him momentarily speechless.
“This is f*cking crazy?!”
Weiyuan City had turned into a red hell.
The power of Fallen Heaven had corrupted everything; rivers of blood surged through the city streets, sweeping away vehicles and shops.
Twisted buildings rose like demons, climbing to the sky along the red light’s flow.
He saw two Evil Spirit Ninjas kneeling on the ground, their clothing and skin rapidly turning red, just like those red spirits that appeared before Fallen Heaven had descended.
Yet, the two didn’t show a hint of terror; they didn’t even make a sound, wearing an eerily serene smile on their faces like they had achieved their greatest wish…
It was an Illusion Realm!
The power of the Red Mage had trapped them in the same delusion as he, and if this continued, they would be assimilated by the red, becoming part of Fallen Heaven!
Gongsun Ce’s hair stood on end.
He urgently looked toward his companions.
His guess was confirmed – all three had that strange expression of bliss.
The red had reached Rina’s neck, crawled to Shiyu Ling’s waist…
and half of Shiyu Lianyi’s face was already crimson red!
He swung his Telekinesis-powered hand without hesitation to slap their faces and forcefully pressed the bean against the face of Shiyu Lianyi, who was in the worst condition.
“Wake up!” The Superpower User screamed hoarsely, “If you don’t wake up now, you’re done for!”
