Chapter 489: Ambush the True Word Demon (Part 1)
Standing in the void, he first used Butterfly Effect Stabilization to repair some unnecessary ripple events.
Then Yan Junze temporarily left the space-time rift, crouched behind the trash can, and took out his phone to check the message sent by Lin Yishan.
Sure enough, he quickly found the latest message from Lin Yishan. Upon opening it, it revealed that after the True Word Barrier was placed on the Reapers of the USA, Japan Great Capital, and Huaying Great Capital, Olay Great Capital was preparing to target the Gods of Death across various capitals.
Of course, this message was sent seven days ago; otherwise, Wu Mayun wouldn't have been in trouble now, and Yan Junze wouldn't be standing behind the trash can in this alley.
Just one minute ago, Lin Yishan had sent another message, telling Yan Junze that he seemed close to being exposed and asking how much longer until he could be retrieved to Huaying Great Capital.
Yan Junze did not reply to him because he was about to initiate the most critical Great Rewind. If he replied now, once the Great Rewind succeeded and the timeline returned to the current space-time, all history would be changed, making any replies unnecessary.
The message stated that the first God of Death Olay Great Capital planned to deal with was Wu Mayun from Huaying, followed by Akira Kamiya from Japan, and third was Landon Walker from the USA.
Moreover, to prevent the other Gods of Death from becoming vigilant and preparing after dealing with the first one, they intended to move immediately against the other two, with almost no time interval in between.
Checking the time, Yan Junze prepared to implement the final plan. He looked up at the sky, and at this moment, there wasn't a single cloud visible above this area.
Originally, he thought about grinding a few more waves of Enchanted Beings to gather more energy, but Yan Junze simply walked to the alley entrance and peeked outside.
The black clouds in the nearby sky had indeed decreased significantly, likely due to the earlier energy-gathering with Yao Long and Ku Zai. The nearest black cloud was approximately two kilometers to the north, and reaching it would require another round of effort.
Yan Junze decided not to pursue it.
"Nothing's wrong, right?" His gaze fell on Yao Long and Ku Zai, who were sitting on the ground. He casually asked.
Yao Long and Ku Zai looked at him as if they were looking at an idiot, unable to comprehend why this guy, who had just gone behind the large trash can for mere seconds, came out asking "Is everything fine." Was he worried about them, or was Yan Junze himself lacking a sense of security?
Yan Junze had just casually asked. He didn't intend for Yao Long or Ku Zai to respond. Turning around, he walked back behind the trash can and re-entered the space-time rift.
The void.
He calculated the time. Olay Great Capital's move against the Gods of Death was scheduled precisely on the fourth day after Reaper Han Yu had been attacked.
Previously, he had sent the mission plan and timeline to everyone, asking them to prepare. He also informed the Exorcists of Huaying and Japan that he would meet them in Olay Great Capital.
"I'll describe it, and the Atlas will conduct space-time positioning based on my description. The time is five hours before Olay Great Capital's Claudia IX, Jeffrey, and True Word Demon Sylvanus join forces to attack the Gods of Death from other capitals under the True Word Barrier. The space positioning is at Olay Great Capital's Litecar City, Palace District, Noble Avenue, No. 67 Red Maple Leaf Hotel." Yan Junze said slowly.
This Red Maple Leaf Hotel was the secretly agreed meeting spot between him and the others.
[Positioning in progress, please wait...]
[Analyzing...]
[Analysis complete, positioning underway...]
[Positioning complete. This space-time fixed point insertion will consume 4800 units of Dimensional Energy. Enter now?]
"Enter."
...
Above Litecar City, massive skyships flew across the sky.
The city hall was currently hosting a large-scale skyship exhibition, and the square near Morning Star Central Park was crowded with people.
The weather today was relatively good. While not bright and sunny, it was cool and breezy, suitable for skyships to ascend and for tourists to enjoy their outings.
By evening, some of these large skyships would descend into the park for workers to dismantle, while others, meticulously prepared, would gather above the palace. These skyships had been specially decorated with fluorescent patterns that shifted under different spotlight angles, creating a fantastic display at night.
To ensure the best visual effect at night, technicians inside the palace were already adjusting the angles of the spotlights using computers.
Since most of the crowd had gathered near Morning Star Central Park, Noble Avenue had become much less populated, with only scattered pedestrians passing by.
Yan Junze stood at the entrance of the Red Maple Leaf Hotel on No. 67 Noble Avenue, glanced at the occasional pedestrians, and then walked into the hotel.
Due to its proximity to the palace, the Red Maple Leaf Hotel was part of this area's upscale architecture, ranking among the finest star-rated hotels in Litecar City.
Through the automatic revolving doors, Yan Junze stepped into the hotel lobby and turned his head. On the sofa at the left side of the lobby, Daisuke Kitahara was sitting and drinking tea.
Upon seeing Yan Junze, Daisuke Kitahara did not greet him but instead glanced in the direction of the elevator, got up, and walked over there first.
Yan Junze followed roughly ten meters behind Daisuke Kitahara, heading toward the elevator.
They did not use the same elevator. After noticing that Daisuke Kitahara's elevator had stopped on the 12th floor, Yan Junze then took another elevator to the same floor.
Exiting the elevator, he surveyed the surroundings. The hallway was empty.
