Mysterious Side, often also have polymaths, philosophers pondering questions like "What is the essence of humanity?", the answer is complex. Yet there is one notion that most people agree upon. One of human nature's traits is being very gossip-prone.
At this moment, the words spewed from the "Second Rotten Head," though tainted, contained a wealth of information directly related to three "Saints," Saint Confessor Martin Sims, Holy Warrior William Hid, and Holy Elf Frita.
"Sims and Frita in love, William Hid unrequited?"
Those who are quick-witted had already swiftly summarized the scope of this "love triangle." The rest of the people also became excited, as celebrity gossip is always thrilling, especially concerning three beings who exist in myths and legends.
In this process, the only unaffected one remained Ludwig.
This lucky yet unlucky youth, seemed like a true "Ascetic," devout and immersed, climbing those black steps only giants could tread, unbothered by the pain the Second Rotten Head brought, nor caring about the "Pla Field" enveloping the mountain.
As for the gossip about his teacher, he didn't care, or perhaps didn't believe it at all.
Despite technically, Ludwig had never met the real "Martin Sims" from beginning to end, and they had a significant generation gap, the fact that Ludwig was taken as a disciple by Sims across generations proves his talent.
This youth might well be like the first disciple of the Saint Confessor, "York Sims," a true ascetic.
At this moment, looking down from the sky, one could see a towering black mountain that emits a suppressing aura, on steps seemingly built for giants, an "ant" vigorously climbing, its burning, intense Life Flame rapidly depleting.
Yet, during this time, no other "Legendary" made a move.
Behind Ludwig, including the three Undying Pioneers among them, all Legendary-level strong beings tacitly stopped, silently following, probably pondering how to deal with the difficult situation ahead.
The first to strike at Ludwig, a Legendary from the "Dark God" organization, was killed by a collective attack from the other Legends.
Then, Legendary strong beings respectively from the "Ancient Mystical Vault" and "Mam Sanatorium" were slain by the Holy Axe Bearer Justice Lincoln.
The most recent attacker, a member of the Dream God Palace, a Legend-Level Dream Maker trying to steal the Thorny Suit, was effortlessly killed by the "Holy Elf."
No one could guarantee that if someone else made a move.
Whether its against Ludwig, or trying to bypass him to snatch the Thorny Suit, wouldn't provoke the projection of a third "Saint."
Thus, the scene fell into a stalemate.
Pairs of eyes could only watch as Ludwig continued his climb.
For the audience at the foot of the mountain, each Legend-Level Transcendent is a terrifying strong being they couldn't confront.
And those possible "Saints" projections, though only shadows, posed the same disparity.
Demigod-Level!
This term, within the Extraordinary World, represents the strongest beings below the Divine.
And the Twelve Saints who led the people and Transcendents of the New Continent to gradually repel the greedy nobles and raiders of the Old Continent, and even slay or expel the monsters ravaging the land back to the Exotic Realm, each was a Demigod-level being.
A few of them, infinitely close to the Divine.
Under the premise of four Legends falling, it is normal for other Legends to be wary.
The only exception was still the "Second Rotten Head."
This rotting skull, with just half of its swollen tongue left, the insides of its abnormally swollen mouth, and clenched dry yellow teeth, mocked the Legends from all major organizations again, even including its own organization, the "Rotten Head."
"Tsk tsk, my foolish juniors, you are really too timid."
"It's just a few of that old undying Sims' friends, are they so frightening?"
"Moreover, as far as I know, Sims doesn't really have many remarkable friends, except Lincoln the cunning chap, Frita that little bitch, and Piers who likes to spin tales. This guy, except for his Truth Telling Skill, poses no threat."
"Ah, there's also the Holy Witch Penelope Vitara, she's a bit stronger, once again proving that old undying Sims is no good."
"Wait, Sam Negrello seems to have a good relationship with Sims too; he likes blacksmithing and making toys."
"Anyone else, Morgan? No, wrong, this guy had an argument with Sims because Sims shamelessly always snatches the monsters Morgan is about to kill on the battlefield, his character can be said to be the worst. If Morgan can still tolerate it, then he's truly an honest person."
"Holy Nun? Hmm, this woman definitely won't help Sims, I heard, these two fought in the stinky Holy Hall of the Church, right in front of the statue of the Lord of Light, arguing for three days and nights. Sims, that shameless man, even called Teresa an unwanted old woman."
...
At this moment, the atmosphere atop the Black Mountain was extremely abnormal.
All the Legends temporarily lost the desire to strike.
And for the spectators at the foot of the mountain, from the beginning, they knew that this level of battlefield wouldn't present a chance for "looting," their best outcome would be to keep their lives after watching the excitement.
