Chapter 114: When the Lamp God Begins to act like a demon

"Truly impressive."

With a sigh of admiration, Hastur greeted the butler Neil, who was still by his side, and then returned to his bedroom.

He went to bed and entered the Hall of Stars.

The events of last night were too terrifying; he didn't dare to ponder them in the real world.

Only in the sanctuary of the Hall of Stars did he feel safe.

Despite knowing the answer in advance, he was still overwhelmed by the wisdom of the Overstar Sovereign.

In both strength and wisdom, the Overstar Sovereign firmly held the upper hand.

Especially when it appeared suddenly, it did not choose to ambush the Eternal Blazing Sun first but took the initiative during the critical moment of night turning to day, spreading its radiance across the land ahead of time.

The symbolism here was terrifying! It wasn't about contaminating the Eternal Blazing Sun but about directly replacing it! Even though the Eternal Blazing Sun managed to dispel the influence of the Overstar Sovereign and secure its position, still holding the solar authority.

But even for that brief moment, the Eternal Blazing Sun would pay a terrible price!

Moreover, it might have been that the Overstar Sovereign had already achieved its goal and chose to leave on its own, rather than being dispelled by the Eternal Blazing Sun .

During this process, although the everNight Goddess and the Earth Mother Goddess kept intervening, the first star that appeared probably did explode.

Using the powerful force generated by the explosion, they forcibly blocked the combined efforts of the everNight Goddess and the Earth Mother Goddess.

Even the War God, who maintained the initial barrier, and the Gods of Steam and Machinery had to divert some of their power to help.

The Overstar Sovereign, by merely manipulating a single star, could briefly suppress deities like the everNight Goddess, showing terrifying strength.

Without the initial barrier, even if the Seven Gods joined forces, they probably wouldn't stand a chance against the Overstar Sovereign.

This was a gap in their very essence, and the authority wielded by the Overstar Sovereign was too horrifying.

To hold the stars and detonate them at a critical moment.

That must be one of the Overstar Sovereign's authorities.

No wonder the Overstar Sovereign initially showed little interest in Earth because once the initial barrier disappeared, it could detonate the entire planet at any time!

Hastur began to worry that one day, he might wake up in the morning to find that the sun in the sky had suddenly changed.

Such a thought was absolutely terrifying! Besides the Overstar Sovereign, the movements of the Mother Tree of Desire last night were also questionable.

It never showed up, which was unexpected.

In the previous gathering of stars, the Overstar Sovereign had clearly formed an alliance with the Mother Tree of Desire.

"Perhaps what happened last night wasn't the main objective."

Hastur murmured, harboring an even more terrifying suspicion.

The battle last night must have weakened the Seven Gods' power to guard the initial barrier, and the connection between the Mother Tree of Desire and Earth was deep, with a significant impact.

Perhaps the Overstar Sovereign's real plan had already secretly reached Earth last night, deceiving many beings.

Thinking this, Hastur looked towards the star where the Overstar Sovereign resided.

The white light was dazzling, making it hard for him to see the specific situation inside the star.

After staring intently for a while, Hastur gradually adapted to the intense light.

The Overstar Sovereign still appeared to be a white dwarf star, seemingly still in slumber.

But now, Hastur wouldn't believe that the Overstar Sovereign was asleep; this Outer God seemed slow and deliberate, but its actions were as swift as thunder.

Very terrifying! Very dangerous!

Hastur saw no other anomalies and thus withdrew his prying gaze.

Prying for too long would alert the Overstar Sovereign.

Perhaps the Overstar Sovereign had simply channeled part of its power through the channel built by the Mother Tree of Desire into Earth.

It didn't manifest its own avatar.

Perhaps because manifesting an avatar was too difficult, it abandoned this approach.

Hastur thought for a while, then his gaze swept over the Fallen Mother Goddess, the Mother Tree of Desire, the High-Dimensional Overseer, and the Lamp God.

When his gaze fell on the star where the Lamp God resided, he was shocked to find that the Lamp God was currently causing mischief.

…

"Bernadette, no matter how you seal it, today I will break through the seal and return to the stars!"

The voice of the Lamp God was full of authority and grandeur.

At this moment, it completely occupied the Wishing Lamp, emitting golden light all around.

Within the golden light, rules and order were reorganizing! An uncontrollable power was erupting, continuously assaulting the seal of the Wishing Lamp! Beside it, Bernadette remained calm, methodically casting seals with her hands, using the Wishing Lamp to suppress the power of the Lamp God.

"You must have noticed what happened in the starry sky last night, right?"

The Lamp God expended a great deal of power to manifest its shadow above the Wishing Lamp.

"The Overstar Sovereign has awakened, and last night it joined forces with the Fallen Mother Goddess and other beings to strike at the initial barrier!"

"I was naturally one of them!"

"If you are willing to unlock the seal now and help me return to the stars, I will surely protect your life when the end comes."

The tone of the Lamp God was full of condescension, as if it was bestowing Bernadette with one last chance.

"Hah, do you think I would believe you?"

Bernadette calmly responded, then focused on maintaining the seal of the Wishing Lamp.

Although she knew the Lamp God was bluffing, the immense pressure emanating from the Wishing Lamp was undeniably real.

"Do you think you still have a choice?"

"If it weren't for the relatively harmonious time we've spent together, I wouldn't grant you such a favor."

"Let me tell you, the Eternal Blazing Sun has been influenced by the Overstar Sovereign, and next, its power will spread through the solar pathway, and the end will come sooner!"

The Lamp God threw out another bombshell to try to shake Bernadette's resolve.

Heh, keep bluffing.

Let's see how long your accumulated power can support your wastefulness! Bernadette wiped the sweat from her forehead, continuing to maintain the seal of the Wishing Lamp.

If it had been before, facing the sudden difficulty posed by the Lamp God, she indeed would have sought help from other powers, just in case.

But now she knew that the divine scourge Sia was waiting for her near Beckland, and once she left Beckland, she would surely attract an attack from the divine scourge Sia.

So, she would never leave Beckland at this time.

"I don't believe I can't bluff you!"

Seeing that Bernadette was not seeking help from others, the Lamp God grew fierce.

Golden rules and order transformed into chains, lashing out at Bernadette!

This was a malicious pleasure it learned from the Star Sovereign.

Bernadette threw out a sealing object, the Triangular Space-Time! A small square iron cage transformed into an inverted pyramid structure, forming a golden barrier, blocking the Lamp God's attack.

Each time the golden chains lashed out, Bernadette's body trembled slightly, clearly affected by the Lamp God's power even through the Triangular Space-Time.

The Lamp God lashed out several times before stopping, disdainfully saying, "Bernadette, with your power alone, you cannot stop me from breaking the seal!"

"You're welcome to try."

"Heh, how many more lashes can you endure?"

"Heh, and how many more lashes can you lash out?"

Bernadette unceremoniously retorted, adopting a defiant attitude as if ready for a do-or-die struggle.

This made the Lamp God inwardly grumble, "Has Bernadette eaten weights? Why would she rather fight to the death with me than leave Beckland to seek help from others?"

"Does she know that I have the divine scourge Sia guarding outside Beckland?"

"Or is the pressure I'm putting on her not enough?"

At this moment, the Lamp God realized it was caught in a dilemma.

Should it continue the standoff with Bernadette or temporarily back off to reduce the loss of power?

With the lord of the mysterious seal placed on the Wishing Lamp, it couldn't pose a real threat to Bernadette.

Otherwise, Roselle wouldn't have dared to entrust the Wishing Lamp to Bernadette.

It just wanted to use the momentum of last night's starry sky battle to force Bernadette, whose mind was shaken, into the trap it had set with the Mother Tree of Desire.

In the end, the Lamp God decided to continue the standoff with Bernadette.

After all, such a good opportunity might be hard to come by a second time!

"Ah, if only the foolish son of the Mother Tree of Desire would suddenly appear here, that would be wonderful."

The Lamp God sighed.

After continuing the standoff for a while, its expression suddenly changed, very confidently saying, "Bernadette, this is the last chance I'm giving you!"

It had already sensed the aura of the divine scourge Sia approaching!

If it moved quickly enough, the divine scourge Sia could completely defeat Bernadette and take the Wishing Lamp before the descent of the divine! Its opportunity had come!

Bernadette also felt the aura of the divine scourge Sia approaching, but she did not panic.

A mocking smile appeared on her lips, "Is it only allowed for you to hunt me, and not for me to hunt you in return?"
