Inside the Seabed Spaceship, in the Silver-White hall.

Lumian, Burning in Reddish White Flames, transformed into a Fireball and soared toward "Ultraman" Lato Giaro.

The Core Member of That One "April Fool's Day" team remained completely calm, holding his breath as he pushed his left palm forward.

Lumian suddenly felt an invisible force pushing him in the opposite direction, causing the incredibly fast Reddish-White Fireball to slow down instantly, like a worm struggling inside transparent amber.

Seizing the opportunity, Lato Giaro raised his right hand again, making a loose fist.

A ball of Blazing White Sunlight condensed and compressed there, quickly transforming into a Great Terror laser beam that shot towards Lumian was now merged into Reddish-White Fireball.

This is an ability born from the combination of the "Sun" Pathway and the "Sea" Gift. It is equivalent to using the power of the "Sun" Pathway to propel the "Weakening Ray" of the "Sea" Gift. This no longer has the effect of changing the target's physical structure, causing him to gradually Weakening to death and exhibiting various negative symptoms. However, both the penetrating effect and the melting effect are significantly enhanced, making it more effective and direct in severely injuring or even killing the target.

For Lato Giaro, being in a confined environment filled with Poison Gas and with the constant threat of other malicious attacks, a swift victory was essential, rather than dragging things out and waiting for Lumian Lee to slowly Weakening. Therefore, he chose the "Sun Ray" instead of the "Weakening Ray."

The "Sun Ray," traveling at laser speed and with unavoidable force, struck the Reddish-White Fireball, piercing it and "melting" a large hole in it.

The Fireball could no longer maintain its structure and exploded with a thunderous roar, scattering like rain in all directions.

But Lumian wasn't there; he seemed to have vanished into thin air.

At the same time, Lumian's figure, wearing "Lie" earrings, was quickly outlined behind "Ultraman" Lato Giaro.

He initially chose to transform into Fireball and fly towards Lato Giaro, his only purpose being to force the opponent to use his Beyond Ability to retaliate, thus "fixing" him in his original position and preventing him from moving ahead. This would create an opportunity for him to "Teleportation" behind the target while still in Fireball form to launch a surprise attack.

He had fought against the "Gifted of the Sea" before, so how could he not know that Lato Giaro could use the power of the earth and Stars to make an object heavy or light, slowing it down or increasing its speed?

In order to successfully use "Spirit World Traversal" while in the Fireball state, Lumian also borrowed the ability of "Lie" to manipulate Flames.

The moment his figure appeared, he immediately opened his mouth and made a short sound aimed at "Ultraman" Lato Giaro, who was less than two meters away:

"Ha!"

A pale yellow light, resembling gas, shot towards the Core Member of That One "April Fool's Day" prank.

Lato Giaro didn't even have time to turn around; he only sensed the impending danger based on his Beyond Ability to decipher the "Words of the Stars" and his perception of Destiny.

In his eyes, a glimmer of starlight appeared, and he saw several "passages" that were invisible to normal humans in the silvery-white hall filled with light blue-green gas. He hurriedly chose one of them and rushed out.

These are the "Navigation" abilities and Library Gift upon us by the Sea.

Meanwhile, unsure if he could dodge the attack from behind, Lato Giaro caused the surroundings to glow Golden, spreading outwards in layers.

This is the "Purification Halo" of the "Light Priest," Sequence 5 the "Sun" Pathway.

With a "Ha," a pale yellow light swept across the back of Lato Giaro, who was hiding somewhere in the void.

The Core Member codenamed "Ultraman April Fool's Day Past, but his forward momentum did not diminish, and he still managed to enter the illusory passage that normal people could not see, which involved space and Dimension.

Lumian, who was less than two meters away from him, was also unable to "Teleportation" away in time and was covered by the "Purification Halo".

His heart suddenly ached terribly, as if something wanted to tear his body apart and crawl out from the inside.

He faintly heard again that thing in his ear, whether it came from the being called Fate, the delirious ramblings of Mr. The Fool, or both.

They weren't clear, but they still made Lumian's brain feel as if an invisible hand was pulling at it, trying to rip out his skull.

Even with the endurance of an "Ascetic," Lumian couldn't help but let out a Pain groan, bent over, collapsed to the ground, and curled up.

He had a similar experience before, which was the reaction he had after being doused with Holy Water made by Valentine in the Dream of Cordou Village. The "Purification Halo" that Lato Giaro is now using is an advanced version of the "Sun Halo". It has changed from being harmless to having some of the effects of the Sun Holy Water, which can expel Evil Spirit and purify the Evil or incompatible forces in the target's body.

Because of Lato Giaro's coma, the "Purification Halo" vanished in an instant, only initially dissolving the Toxic Gas in the area.

Similarly, the unconscious Lato Giaro was unable to move forward in the illusory passage and quickly broke free, falling three or four meters away from Lumian with a thud. He felt a sharp pain upon impact and slowly regained consciousness.

At this moment, Lumian slowly recovered from the intense pain caused by the "Purification Halo".

Having just awakened and unaware of the specific situation, Lato Giaro's instinctive reaction was to re-enter the illusory passage, creating distance between himself and Lumian Lee to avoid being hit again by that "Mental Piercing" ability, or encountering other attacks.

By the time he crawled back into the hall from the exit of the illusory passage, Lumian had also raised his head, having mostly recovered, though his forehead was covered in a dense layer of cold sweat.

Seeing this, Lato Giaro felt no regret, disappointment, or remorse; instead, he was overjoyed.

It works!

The "Purification Halo" works on Lumian Lee!

After confirming that the Great Adventurer Louis Berri was indeed Lumian Lee, Lato Giaro began to ponder how he should deal with the situation if he were to fight this guy:

With the authority of "Governor of the Sea," it's easy; just keep throwing the opponent into the "Void Starry Sky" and make him lose his way time and time again. Without the authority of "Governor of the Sea," you must consider how to target Lumian Lee's weaknesses.

What makes Lumian Lee truly unique is that he possesses a sealing power originating from the same source as the Celestial Worthy Venerable, and a being of High Sequence is sealed within him.

Those in this Beyonder usually possess a false High Sequence and enjoy many conveniences, but are greatly restrained by the abilities of the "Sun" Pathway.

Without knowing whether the High Sequence creature sealed within Lumian Lee was evil, corrupt, or dark, Lato Giaro was unsure whether abilities like "Sun Halo" and "Purification Slash" would work, or how much power "Purification Halo" could exert. The only thing he was certain of was that the "Sun Holy Water" he created would have an effect.

Therefore, if the "Purification Halo" doesn't work well on Lumian Lee, he will quickly create "Sun Holy Water" and continuously spray it on the other party.

Looking at Lumian, Lato Giaro smiled, once again bathing the surroundings in Golden, which spread outwards in layers.

This sealed environment is perfect for using the "Purification Halo," giving Lumian Lee no chance to create distance and then "Teleportation" closer. The entire hall is basically within the coverage area of the "Purification Halo"!

Moreover, inside the Spaceship, he wouldn't have to worry about Lumian Lee Loss of Control and turning into Monster, releasing that High Sequence creature within him—this kind of Outsider "invasion" would inevitably trigger the Spaceship's automatic defenses, making the other party the primary target. At that time, he might even be able to take control of the Spaceship!

Didn't your Older Sister tell you a quote from Emperor Roselle?

Whatever you rely on to gain special status and become powerful, you will inevitably be punished for it!

Seeing the layers of Golden surging in, Lumian raised his right hand, and his figure vanished instantly.

Where will this "Teleportation" take us? As long as we're still in the hall, we can't escape the "Purification Halo"! Lato Giaro watched the other person struggle with absolute certainty and a smile on his face.

Unless Lumian Lee chooses to leave this hall, it is impossible for him to escape the "Purification Halo". With the Spaceship having lowered the Barrier, closed the door, and sealed this place, given the special nature of similar Sea Power, to "Teleportation" out, he would have to first destroy the surrounding walls or metal doors and create an exit himself.

This is also good news for Lato Giaro.

Nobody knows what the Spaceship will release next in this hall!

The spreading "Purification Halo" quickly "engulfed" the spot where Lumian had been standing, but nothing happened, and Lumian's figure was not outlined in the entire Silver-White hall.

This... Lato Giaro's eyes narrowed slightly.

Where did Lumian Lee go?

Is his "Teleportation" ability unaffected by the sealed interior of the Spaceship?

Or did he go into hiding?

Lato Giaro had a sudden thought, stretched out his right hand, and pulled sharply.

The void within the hall, like an invisible curtain, was slightly ripped open, revealing an unusual area.

That area was right at the angle between two walls, next to a dark hole that emitted a pale blue-green gas.

He created an unstable space, hiding inside to avoid the "Purification Halo"? Well, the "Purification Halo" mainly functions to exorcise evil, purify, warm, and give Courage; it has no real offensive power and cannot destroy the structure of that space... Lumian Lee actually has this ability... Lato Giaro quickly saw through Lumian's trick, calmly raised his right hand, and condensed a highly penetrating eerie green ray.

At the same time, he also used his initial manipulation of Gravity to pull up that imaginary space.

The eerie green ray struck the area that had been stretched, instantly penetrating it and destroying the structure.

In the silent shattering, the eerie green ray continued forward, striking a suit of Silver-White Full-Body Armor that was turned away from Lato Giaro.

The pale green rays, which had decayed to a certain extent, then disappeared.

The Silver-White Full-Body Armor suddenly turned around, and it seemed as if two gazes were fixed on Lato Giaro from inside the empty helmet.

The next second, it sprinted toward this Core Member the "April Fool's Day" prank, a Giant Sword of Light materializing in its hand.

As Lumian charged out in his full Silver-White Full-Body Armor, his figure appeared in the corner.

He had just used the terrain to set up a simple "Fictional Bottle"—using the large hole spewing Poison Gas as a symbol of a "window"—with the aim of avoiding the influence of the "Purification Halo" and taking this opportunity to take out the "Pride Armor," posing it with its back to Lato Giaro.

Yes, this Curse armor only has a chance of attacking someone standing a certain distance behind it, not a certainty. But what if that person is not only standing within ten meters of it, but also stabs it in the back and attacks it?

The answer is self-evident!

Now, Lumian has a helpful ally who isn't afraid of the "Purification Halo".
