Chapter 82: Chapter82-Escape? Pursuit?
When Owen’s gaze fell upon Ymir, her eyelids couldn’t help but twitch slightly, giving her an eerie feeling of being seen through completely.
Instantly alert, her body transformed into mist and hurriedly vanished from the spot.
Although Ymir reacted swiftly and disappeared almost instantly, Owen’s transformed eyes still caught her movements.
Even if it was just a fleeting glimpse, Owen saw things he had never noticed before.
First, he saw the flow of Ymir’s spirit, which was clearly visible in his eyes, including the entire process of her mobilizing mind power to leave.
Additionally, he noticed small red dots, varying in size, faintly appearing on her spiritual form.
These were Ymir’s weak points and flaws!
The moment Owen saw those red dots, the thought popped into his mind!
As Owen thought carefully, he realized that these were indeed the spots where Ymir’s mind power was weak or places she subconsciously overlooked.
If he were to suddenly attack these red-dot-marked locations, it could likely achieve unexpected results.
Additionally, Owen vaguely saw fragments of a divine spark faintly appearing and disappearing deep within Ymir’s soul.
Ymir was indeed extraordinary, Owen marveled. If it weren’t for his current eyes, which could discern weaknesses and truths, he wouldn’t have discovered these things even with Ymir always by his side.
The Spear of Longinus truly lived up to its reputation as a divine artifact!
Owen rubbed his eyes more satisfied than ever.
With the augmentation of these eyes, dealing with the Fallen Angel would undoubtedly be much easier.
In future confrontations, he now had a powerful new tool.
It could even be said that his combat ability had undergone a qualitative leap!
After all, being able to see an opponent’s weaknesses was incredibly advantageous, allowing for the possibility of achieving great results with minimal effort.
Afterward, Owen quickly opened his system panel to check it.

After looking at the system panel, Owen felt even more satisfied.
If he were to wear the fully defensive Fallen Angel set, he couldn’t even imagine the extent of his combat power.
“Master Owen!”
As Owen was checking the system panel, he suddenly heard a familiar voice calling from afar.
Benedict was leading some elite Wolf Guards, hurrying over.
Each of them was fully armed, exuding strong magical fluctuations, almost all of them being gold-tier mages.
“Master Owen, where is the Fallen Angel?”
Seeing Owen’s back but not the Fallen Angel, Benedict and the others were puzzled and couldn’t help but ask.
Just moments ago, when Owen was fighting the Fallen Angel, Benedict and the others received orders from Leslie to assist Owen in the battle against the Fallen Angel.
But judging by the current situation, it seemed the Fallen Angel had already been slain by Owen.
After all, a pure white halo had appeared above Owen’s head.
“The Fallen Angel has been killed by me,” Owen said, putting away the system panel and turning to look at Benedict and the others who had hurried over.
“The Fallen Angel is dead?”
Even though Benedict and the others had already guessed this from the halo above Owen’s head, hearing the confirmation from Owen himself finally made them relax.
However, this relaxation lasted only a moment.
When Owen’s gaze swept over them, they felt their scalps tingle, and they staggered backward in a daze, unable to stand steadily.
In a trance, they saw an endless sea of blood and sharp edges rushing towards their eyes from Owen’s gaze.
Their pupils contracted, blood trickled from the corners of their eyes, and their bodies and spirits felt as if they were pierced through in an instant.
As Benedict and the others’ eyes and spirits were on the verge of collapse, Owen immediately realized what was happening and quickly restrained the sharpness in his eyes, calming his gaze swiftly.
Benedict felt a moment of disorientation, as the sea of blood that was about to engulf him and suffocate him suddenly vanished as if waking from a dream.
A gentle breeze brushed over his body, and the bright golden light brought a touch of warmth.
The cold, sharp sense of danger seemed nonexistent.
Benedict rubbed his aching temples and glanced at the others behind him.
Their foreheads were already covered in cold sweat, and their chests were almost soaked with it.
When Benedict looked at them, they belatedly regained their composure.
Benedict was startled, realizing that the previous sensation was not an illusion…
“Why are you here? How is the situation on Leslie’s side?” Owen, having reined in the sharpness in his eyes and becoming more gentle, glanced at Benedict and the others and asked.
The group quickly bowed to Owen, not daring to meet his eyes, and respectfully said, “Miss Leslie just sent us to assist you. We rushed over as soon as we received the order. As for Miss Leslie’s current situation, we are not sure. There has been no disturbance at the palace for the time being.”
“No disturbance?!” A hint of caution flashed in Owen’s eyes.
With Leslie being platinum-tier, facing those two elders from the Council of Elders, it was impossible for there to be no commotion at all.
Immediately, Owen quickly looked towards the depths of the palace.
From his current location, the palace was dozens of miles away.
However, when Owen gathered mana into his eyes, the distant distance was instantly shortened.
The scene of the palace came into view. The dozens of miles were completely covered.
But just as Owen was about to further probe with his eyes, he suddenly noticed that the palace seemed to be shrouded by a special black barrier!
His gaze fell upon it, like hitting an impenetrable iron wall, making it difficult to advance further.
Dark Tower! The first thought that emerged in Owen’s mind was Leslie’s hidden skill!
Owen didn’t know much about the Dark Tower.
Although he was the designer of the anime characters, his understanding of the Dark Tower only extended to the end of the first season of the anime.
However, based on the information he knew, the Dark Tower consisted of nine levels. For Leslie, it was both a burden and a weapon!
She could use the Dark Tower for training, and it contained many lost spells.
She could directly upgrade within the Dark Tower and even harness the power of the powerful beings imprisoned inside it!
Additionally, the Dark Tower itself was a barrier, and when Leslie activated the Dark Tower, her combat power within its confines would greatly increase.
As Owen was lost in thought, a figure covered in the scent of blood approached quickly and appeared beside him.
Charlotte wiped the blood off her face and reported in a low voice, “Master Owen, as per your and Miss Leslie’s plan, King Aldric is leading the royal family members towards the border mountains, likely to retrieve the treasure. However…”
At this point, Charlotte seemed to remember something and paused.
“However, what?” Owen asked with a frown.
Charlotte glanced in the direction of the Thousand Peaks and continued, “There is more than just the royal family heading towards the border mountains.”
“Oh? Who else?” Owen pursued.
Charlotte replied, “Carlos and Kyrik’s Penal Minister, they are both secretly following as well.”
Hearing this, Owen’s expression turned more serious.
The royal family heading to the treasure-laden mountains, with Carlos and Kyrik’s Penal Minister following them, indicated they had noticed something!
If Carlos and Kyrik’s Penal Minister indeed followed them, their strength could jeopardize Owen’s plan to blow the Council of Elders!
King Aldric and his group were not important; the Council of Elders was the key!
If the Council of Elders could not be eradicated, truly controlling the Azure Kingdom would be impossible, leaving endless troubles behind.
Thus, Owen gave Charlotte a few simple instructions to stabilize the capital’s situation as quickly as possible.
Then, he spread his angel wings and transformed into a streak of light, rushing toward the border mountains.
…
Meanwhile, in the palace.
Whether they were citizens in the city or the various prodigies and guards gathered from different regions, everyone looked up at the sky above the palace.
Originally a clear blue sky, it suddenly held a massive black object, endless in sight, like a mountain descending from the heavens, covering the sprawling palace.
