      Chapter 59: The Mystery of the Boiling Sword Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 When the first ray of sunlight pierced through the gray mist, Heer City finally welcomed the end of the Tidal Night. The wilderness outside the high walls was a mess; under the Devouring Worm's consumption, huge pits appeared out of nowhere, and even the high walls themselves suffered some damage. A large number of injured were sent to hospitals, and many others completely vanished during the Tidal Night; no one knew if they were devoured by demons or fell into the Spirit…
    • Chapter 58 Stable Anchor Bolts

      Chapter 58 Stable Anchor Bolts Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The Spirit Artisans of Mech-Corpse Destiny have distinctive combat styles, varying by their affiliated Forging Court. Some Spirit Artisans highly modify their bodies with prosthetics, turning themselves into terrifying killing machines, while others store vast design blueprints in their minds, crafting various weapons and even wearable mechanical armor on the fly to face enemies, adapting to changes in the battlefield. Then there are Spirit Artisans like Rolf, who…
    • Chapter 57: The Beast of Chaos City

      Chapter 57: The Beast of Chaos City Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 Dense, blood-red tendrils swept over, boiling sword slashed horizontally, and soul marrow burned. Sirian conjured a circle of flames that wrapped around him, incinerating the flesh into ash. But even as the ash dispersed, it was still flesh. Though Sirian was giving his all, he could at most prevent the Mountain of Decay from healing; he couldn't kill it completely. "This chaotic creature... is at least close…
    • Chapter 56: Bloody Rain

      Chapter 56: Bloody Rain Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The City Guard Bureau staff had all heard more or less about Sirian's rumors; he dared to traverse the wilderness alone at a young age, even having enough energy to bring a dog along, and what was more critical, he would chat endlessly with this dog. The staff also learned that in his personal life, Sirian was an extremely boring person: he would go on duty if there was work, attend gatherings if there were any, and wander around Heer City during his holidays. He…
    • Chapter 55: Demons Dance

      Chapter 55: Demons Dance Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 Sirian ascended the high wall, his gaze sweeping across the distant wilderness. This was his first time witnessing the entire process of an Origin Energy Tide’s arrival. At the edge of his vision, a thick blackness appeared, indiscriminately staining both sky and earth, like a silent sandstorm completely engulfing Heer City. Starlight faded, the twin moons vanished without a trace, only the Beacon Lighthouse still stood, burning, supporting a dust-free…
    • Chapter 54: The Tide Rises

      Chapter 54: The Tide Rises Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 Not long after Sirian left, Anya pushed open the office door. “It seems you had a good chat with Sirian. Did you find any clues?” “A little,” Dailin said slowly, stretching lazily. “Anya, the past few times we raided the dark alleys, we came up empty-handed, not even touching the shadows of those Chaos Followers. Yet, Sirian, on his first night patrol in the City-state, swaggered right into their lair.” Anya listened…
    • Chapter 53: Evil Claws

      Chapter 53: Evil Claws Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 After entrusting Bruce with the work, Sirian sat properly at his desk. Only then did Sirian have time to carefully feel the changes in his body. After slaying his Chaos enemies, Blessing: Wrathful Devourer once again increased Sirian's power, and his soul marrow concentration reached approximately 6.2%. Killing just one Tier 1 Chaos Follower resulted in a 0.2% increase, but Sirian wasn't happy about it; on the contrary, he…
    • Chapter 52: Falcon

      Chapter 52: Falcon Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 When Sirian walked out of the archives, Dailin was still quietly guarding the door. "Did you figure it out?" "More or less, I only looked at some key points." Sirian replied, a hint of weariness in his tone. The case files for Reverse Falcon were piled high, and Sirian could only quickly browse through them, finding clues and some—inspiration. Dailin noticed Sirian's unusual demeanor and asked tentatively, "Do you have any…
    • Chapter 51 Urban Legend

      Chapter 51 Urban Legend Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 “Last night was my first time patrolling the city. I acted according to regulations…” Sirian slowly recounted the events of last night, while cautiously observing the other person. Dekar Quake, the current Director Dekar of the City Guard Bureau. Before meeting him, Sirian had heard countless stories about Dekar from the staff. Director Dekar's gaze was sharp, always unsmiling, and full of mystery; so mysterious that no one in the City…
    • Chapter 50: The Path of Compassion and Healing

      Chapter 50: The Path of Compassion and Healing Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The giant god, Our Lady of Pity, is the master of the Path of Compassionate Healing, and one of the Six Titans currently in existence. Sirian had read about the existence of this giant god in the public library, but the book did not mention any deeper information about her. Monks of Pain is the collective term for Transcendent on the Path of Compassionate Healing; they are also the most devout followers and servants of Our Lady of Pity. After…
