A small country in Europe.
The summit of Mount Wandagg.
Inside the Dark Temple.
A young woman with long golden hair, dressed in a dark green witch's robe, was sitting on a stone chair, using magic to browse a black magic book floating in mid-air.
This magic book was clearly incomplete, as many of its pages were missing.
Even so, it still emitted boundless dark energy at all times.
That's right, this magic book is the Darkhold!
And this young woman who is browsing the Darkhold... no, to be precise, she only looks young, but in fact she has lived for about 1500 years.
Her name is Morgan le Fay, and she is a servant and worshiper of the dark god Chthon.
Most of the pages in this Darkhold were painstakingly collected by her over thousands of years, dispatching members of the Dark Followers Cult from all over the world.
However.
In addition to this little-known secret identity.
She actually has another very glamorous identity, even a famous one in the magic world.
That is... the proud disciple of the legendary wizard Merlin, and together with Merlin, she is known as one of the greatest legendary wizards in the history of Earth!
Originally, according to the normal trajectory, Morgan le Fay should have become a sacred guardian like the Ancient One, protecting the Earth from attacks by magical creatures!
But the problem lies in the fact that this ambitious woman is not satisfied with the status quo... she does not want to be 'one of', she only wants to be 'the only one'!
Later, in a battle against the Dark Followers Cult who believed in the dark god Chthon, she accidentally came into contact with a fragment of the Darkhold.
She was immediately attracted by the powerful dark magic and boundless dark energy recorded on it.
So from that day on, she secretly betrayed her faith and teacher, joined the Dark Followers Cult, and gradually became the leader of this mysterious organization!
"Master Morgan, Clea is back."
At this time, a middle-aged witch in a dark blue cloak reported softly.
Morgan le Fay said without raising her head, "Let her in."
"Yes."
Soon, Clea was brought in.
"I'm sorry, Master Morgan, the mission to retrieve the Darkhold fragment... failed!"
Clea placed her hands on her lower abdomen, bowed slightly, and reported with great respect:
"Due to the sudden incident, as soon as that fragment appeared, it was snatched away by a Ghost Rider who had been lying in ambush for a long time..."
"Moreover, during the subsequent pursuit, the other party even summoned the Ancient One and a large number of mages from Kamar-Taj..."
Then Clea recounted in detail the scene that happened on Belle Isle a few hours ago.
At the end, she asked with a slightly uneasy expression:
"Master Morgan, has the Ancient One noticed anything?"
Morgan le Fay frowned slightly and said with some emotion: "It's really hard to imagine that the Sorcerer Supreme would be summoned by Mephisto's agent?"
"There must be some hidden secrets that we don't know... but compared to this, I'm actually more concerned about the female mage you just mentioned who used chaos magic in the battle against the demon army!"
"Are you sure she was using chaos magic?"
"Absolutely."
Although Clea didn't know why the other party cared so much about Wanda, who used chaos magic, she still nodded with an extremely firm expression:
"Your subordinate is willing to swear on her soul that she was definitely using chaos magic."
"You did a good job."
Morgan le Fay saw this, and a touch of greed suddenly appeared in her eyes, and she immediately praised:
"Although this time we failed to bring back the fragment of the Darkhold, we accidentally discovered the real whereabouts of the Red Slayer!"
"Master Morgan, do you mean..."
Clea's eyes widened suddenly, and she exclaimed, "This female mage is the Red Slayer we are looking for, who can awaken the sleeping dark god?"
"It's her, there's absolutely no mistake."
Morgan le Fay said noncommittally: "Chaos magic is a unique and magical power that exists outside of all white magic and black magic. Only lucky people who have been blessed by the dark god can master this extraordinary power on their own without the help of the Darkhold."
As she spoke, her fingers danced in the air, and the Darkhold floating in mid-air suddenly turned automatically, finally stopping on a specific page.
Morgan le Fay looked at the magic words on it and read in a voice that was slightly trembling because of excessive excitement:
"When the blood of the Red Slayer is splashed on the sacred stone, the sleeper will awaken, and the gods will descend on earth again!!"
"I've been looking for her for over a thousand years, and I've finally found her today..."
After a moment of contemplation, Morgan le Fay looked at Clea and instructed: "Next, the follow-up matters regarding the Red Slayer will be handled by Agatha."
"With your current level, you can't deal with the Ancient One very well."
"Since you are the only one who has seen that Ghost Rider, then you can continue to track down the whereabouts of that Darkhold fragment."
Clea responded without hesitation, "Yes!"
After Clea retreated, Morgan le Fay came to an altar with the Darkhold, and whispered with extremely fanatical eyes:
"Great God, I have already found the whereabouts of the Red Slayer... Next, only the last few fragments are needed to unlock the part of your consciousness that is sealed in the Dark Temple."
"Very good."
In the void, an extremely evil and powerful voice directly echoed in Morgan le Fay's mind.
"My loyal follower, when that day comes, I will keep my promise and bestow upon you my original power, making you the most powerful Chaos Witch in the multiverse!!"
"Thank you for the dark god's grace."
Morgan le Fay trembled slightly with excitement.
It wasn't until the voice in her mind completely subsided that she couldn't help but mutter to herself:
"Merlin, do you see that? I am about to become more powerful than you... no, it should be said that I am the most powerful wizard in the entire multiverse!!"
"One day, I will become a magic god like the Vishanti."
…………
……
The next day.
When the sun rose again, the warm sunlight shone unhindered on every street and every inch of land in the seven cities of Green Bay, Chicago, and others.
The dark energy that had originally enveloped the sky had long since dissipated with the killing of the seven Night Demons.
A large number of soldiers with live ammunition followed the armored vehicles responsible for opening the way, advancing towards the interior of the city in an orderly manner.
Many vampires who did not have time to escape were either instantly killed by the sunlight or died under the special weapons in the hands of these soldiers.
Since almost all of the main force of the vampire army was killed by Homelander alone last night.
In addition, they have now lost the cover of darkness.
Therefore, the remaining scattered vampires simply cannot form an effective counterattack in the face of the human army that far outnumbers them.
Before long, a large number of living forces were cleared out.
At the same time, a large number of firefighters, medical staff, and municipal and volunteers also invested in the busy work of rescue and elimination under the cover of soldiers.
They began to continuously search for survivors who had fortunately escaped from the buildings and ruins.
And when those survivors who were frightened and huddled in corners like frightened birds, not daring to make a sound even when discovered by rescuers, were successfully rescued.
Looking at the sun that had "risen" again above their heads, the extremely tense emotions that had been suppressed in these people's hearts were finally released at this moment.
"Waaaaaa..."
"Waaaaaa..."
Even the bravest people would hug the rescuers at this time and cry as helplessly and pitifully as a frightened child.
Yesterday was definitely the darkest moment in life for all the survivors in the seven cities!
Many of them lost their families, relatives, friends, classmates, and even their happy lives.
And General Ross, who was the temporary commander-in-chief of this operation, lost the path to promotion to a higher level of power.
Looking at the gradually calming battle in the monitor, and the streets and alleys full of human limbs and broken arms that looked like a hell of Shura, General Ross felt both regret and self-blame in his heart!
Without a doubt.
He failed to grasp the opportunity that Karl had bestowed upon him!
Now, the personnel and property of the seven cities have all suffered serious losses.
Afterwards, let alone credit, he would be thankful if his political enemies didn't take the opportunity to jump out and hold him accountable.
He might very well retire to the second line ahead of schedule.
You must know.
Within the Department of Defense, there are many people who are jealous of his successful climb onto Karl's thick leg, and even secretly want to replace him.
It's just that these people couldn't find a suitable reason to bring Ross down.
This time, the opportunity not only came, but General Ross himself offered it with both hands.
But this is not the most depressing and irritating thing for him.
What really made General Ross feel crazy was that he had worked for Homelander for nothing this time.
He even made this bastard earn a lot of money and become a "people's hero" with unparalleled support...
Damn it, it's really a sin!
Originally, all of this should have belonged to me!!
"Fu*k, Fu*k, Fu*k!!"
General Ross, whose heart was broken, let out a series of roars at the big screen, which immediately frightened the others in the combat command room into silence.
But at this moment, a soldier suddenly walked in and reported: "General, there is a woman named Selene outside the camp who wants to see you, saying that she has important matters to discuss."
"Don't see her, can't you see that I'm busy directing the battle?"
General Ross, who was in a rage, refused without even thinking about it.
However.
Just as the soldier turned to leave, General Ross, as if suddenly remembering something, suddenly grabbed his shoulder.
Then he slammed his face to a position less than 5 centimeters away from the other party and asked anxiously:
"Wait a minute, what did you say her name was just now?"
"Ah?"
The soldier was obviously startled and responded stutteringly, "It seems to be... Selene?"
"Quickly invite her in."
General Ross's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he knew that this was likely the last chance for him to "turn defeat into victory".
Because... this female vampire represents Karl Mara!!
And right now, the only one who can save his precarious career is probably this man.
"Forget it, I'll go and greet her in person."
As he spoke, General Ross, unable to restrain himself, had already strode out of the combat command room.
This scene made the other staff members in the room look confused.
What is the origin of that woman?
She can actually make a dignified three-star army general go out to greet her in person?
……
"Miss Selene, what instructions does Mr. Karl have this time?"
As soon as the two met, General Ross skipped the pleasantries and couldn't wait to take the lead in asking.
"Boss guessed that General might have encountered some uncontrollable factors..."
Selene saw that the other party took the initiative to lower his posture, a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes, and she immediately stopped being coy and said bluntly:
"Considering that although our cooperation time is not long, General has been trying his best to safeguard the interests of Sokovia and the Aspace Group during this process.
Then, as a partner, we will naturally not let such a loyal ally return empty-handed."
"So... Boss specifically sent me here this time to discuss a win-win cooperation with you."
General Ross's eyes lit up when he heard this, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Win! I want to win!
See, at the critical moment, I still have to rely on Mr. Karl to help me!
"As long as it can help me save the situation... ah, I mean, no matter what Mr. Karl asks, as long as I can do it, I will fully cooperate."
"So please Miss Selene explain!"
Selene nodded slightly, then said something amazing: "In fact, this crisis has not completely passed."
"The remaining vampire clans under the vampire lord who launched this attack will launch a new round of attacks on other cities across the United States starting tonight."
General Ross's eyes widened suddenly: (^^●)
Yes, yes, continue, elaborate, love to hear!!
"Although the intensity may be far less than this 'Seven Cities Crisis', the scale is unprecedented."
"If there is no early intervention, I am afraid that the entire United States will fall into endless panic at that time..."
