Chapter 720: Authority! Curse Riot

The God of All Machines’ furious voice resounded across the heavens.

“Your origin—I will have it no matter what!”

A sky-shrouding dragon’s roar.

Countless death beams erupted and surged toward their direction like a torrent, each beam transforming into a rift in space as if it could drag anyone into the abyss of annihilation.

The silver-haired girl narrowed her eyes and said, “Hold me tight.”

In an instant, chains clattered wildly around her, making her look like a silver butterfly dancing amid death. Her petite frame moved unwaveringly through the beams, showcasing an incredibly rich wealth of combat experience and skill. Not a single one of those countless death beams struck her body.

But then, the next moment.

The ground beneath them bulged violently, and dense vines burst through the earth almost instantly, coiling around Little One’s head from behind in the blink of an eye.

Lynn sensed trouble immediately and whipped his head around, his eyes vicious as he snarled, “Desire Mother Tree!! Have you forgotten what happened inside your trunk with us?”

Instantly.

Lynn could clearly see those surging vines tremble.

And seizing that opportunity, Little One viciously opened her bloody maw and snapped off the vines wrapped around her with a crunch, swiftly breaking free from the Desire Mother Tree’s grasp.

Obviously.

This was definitely a highly effective mental attack!

But at the same time, he immediately felt the terrifying, murderous rage and fury radiating from those vines. Clearly, the negative effects of that line were also absolutely maxed out.

But Lynn didn’t care.

“Run!” he roared.

Because he understood that they were still within the range of the God of All Machines and the Flesh and Blood Dominator’s descent.

But as long as they could escape that range, the curse on them would inevitably stop their pursuers in their tracks. If they wanted to chase, they’d have to descend a second time—and by then, they’d already be long gone!

So this was actually the best choice they could make!

And he had already sent a telepathic message to Miss Puppet and the others, telling them to take this chance—while all the Roots’ attention was focused on them—to get as far away from this dangerous place as possible.

Lynn’s eyes were fixed dead ahead.

At this point, as long as nothing unexpected happened.

They would most likely be able to escape the danger. It was just a matter of time.

Hurry!

But right then, an exceptionally cold voice echoed across the entire sky.

“Do you think you can escape? Or do you believe I only have this much strength?”

In an instant.

Lynn spun his head around sharply.

In the distant high sky, he saw the massive rift widening, saw the colossal eyeball slowly emerging from within it. Torrents of blood flowed out from the rift like a river of gore, and the rift kept expanding until he could even clearly see more terrifying eyeballs surfacing inside it.

A wave of unease flooded through his body like a deluge.

The Flesh and Blood Dominator!

And almost in the very next instant, waves upon waves of screeching fluctuations erupted from that enormous eyeball.

Shoosh-shoosh-shoosh-shoosh—

Like the noise of countless crows flapping their wings all at once.

Lynn’s pupils immediately began to waver.

A gray-white hue spread like a stain, instantly covering every corner of his line of sight. A powerful fluctuation rippled out, and in a flash, it swept over them.

Curse?!

No!

Not a curse... but... but—

“Ahhhh!!!”

A piercing cry of agony tore through the sky.

The silver-haired girl was struck as if severely wounded, plummeting from the high sky and crashing heavily to the ground. The blood-red chains on her body stabbed explosively into the earth with cracking sounds. Crimson fissures flickered across her entire form, and the pain, like being dismembered, instantly burrowed deep into her bones.

Lynn turned his head, trembling.

Up ahead, Sir Aiwen had also stopped in his tracks like a statue, standing still with his head lowered, black threads continuously surfacing all over his body. When he turned his head to look at Lynn, Lynn saw the deep confusion and chaos in his eyes.

In that moment.

Lynn’s entire heart plummeted into an icy abyss.

He turned his head blankly. In the distance, Little One looked around in panic and bewilderment, her writhing tentacles pressing hard against her head, her eyes flickering back and forth between frenzy and clarity, and a hint of murderous glee suddenly crept across her innocent expression.

“Big—Doctor Brother—I feel like—I’m going—mad—!”

And right then.

Lynn understood the true effect of that raucous crow-like noise.

He took a step back, murmuring as he stared into the distant sky at the huge eyeball watching him from within the gray-white expanse.

“Curse... deepening...”

[Warning! Warning! You are being interfered with by an unknown authority! The Clown Curse is fully reviving!]

“Huh?”

Lynn muttered.

And in that moment, the flickering black within his eyes twisted and climbed out from the deepest recesses of his pupils in a frenzy.

In an instant, the corners of his mouth tore into a maniacal grin. His eyes dilated morbidly, and his entire face twisted into a sick, deranged expression.

“Heheheheheheheehehe!!”

A burst of frenzied, sick laughter.

Lynn’s ten fingers clawed at his own cheeks, ripping out deep bloody gashes one after another. His entire body contorted as he craned his neck back, laughing wildly at the sky.

“Hahahahaha!”

In a flash.

Everything shrouded in that gray-white haze was plunged into the abyss of the curse.

And even the God of All Machines’ body within the rift was instantly constricted by tightening chains. The chains groaned as they cinched around his dragon head, trying to drag him back to his prison. He struggled fiercely, his bloodshot eyes glaring in the direction of the Flesh and Blood Dominator as he snarled, “What have you... done?!”

Clearly.

This was an indiscriminate effect!

It was an authority of curse-deepening that affected all beings present simultaneously!

The Flesh and Blood Dominator’s massive eyeball gradually became riddled with bloodshot veins, while his other eyes burst one after another with wet pops. This terrifying authority was undoubtedly also placing an immense burden on him.

But still, he steadily extended his tentacles in their direction.

His hoarse voice rumbled across the sky.

“I’ve done many things for the Jailers, so of course I’ve received the rewards this hell has given me.”

“Of course, if they hadn’t tried to run, I wouldn’t have resorted to this method. But since I’ve already used it, it saves me a lot of trouble. I’ve run out of patience.”

The massive tentacles surged like a torrent of snakes, crawling across the wasteland toward them with a gurgling motion.

His voice grew even hoarser.

“Mother Tree, make your move. I’ll help you kill that human who ruined your plans. As for Cyber, you don’t need to worry. After the curse deepens, he’ll just become a dazed wandering spirit.”

“Now begin. Do what you’ve yet to finish.”

“Devour the Colossus’s Brain. Haven’t you been waiting for this moment all along?”
