Greater Prophecy

Let's go back three years, to the day the Battle of the Pantheon took place.

At this moment, facing the stunned expressions of everyone, Medivh, or rather Mu Gaohan, spoke his first words since his memories returned, with a complex expression.

"Sorry, I'm the GM."

This apology came from Medivh's heart. Although he had regained his memories of Mu Gaohan, he had not lost his memories as Medivh. Medivh's memories also included the series of events that happened with Shen Yuan and others over the past three years, and their influence on him still existed.

It can be said that what he is doing now is a betrayal of a partner and friend he has worked with for three years. When Shen Yuan approached him and tried to win him over, although their relationship was one of mutual exploitation, they were actually quite good friends.

Not to mention, he actually agrees with Shen Yuan's philosophy. As someone who is destined to live in a box for the rest of his life, isolating the box from the outside world seems like a good suggestion.

However, Mu Gaohan could not do that. The reason was that he still maintained the moral sense that a human being should have. He felt that he could not do something like keeping millions of players in the game to keep him company. Even though he himself could never return to reality, it did not mean that he wanted others to experience the same pain as him. In addition, there was the promise he had made to Li Mingfei. Therefore, he decisively took action at this moment.

This move was extraordinary; he directly trapped Shen Yuan with a Void Imprisonment.

Shen Yuan found it hard to believe when he heard Medivh say, "I am the GM."

"Impossible! How could you possibly be a GM? I investigated your network activity; you never logged out of the game, and you weren't even connected to the outside world. You're clearly an NPC!"

Shen Yuan roared incredulously, "Unless—unless you and your consciousness have been separated from the outside world!" But then Shen Yuan suddenly realized that only possibility.

He was greatly alarmed, never expecting that Li Mingfei had made such a far-reaching and profound plan.

Seeing Medivh make his move, Li Mingfei finally showed a glimmer of hope. "Stop Shen Yuan's conspiracy! Use the power I left you!" At this moment, after saying this, Li Mingfei's pause finally ended. A dazzling flash erupted from his body—the final burst of Holy Light. Although this Holy Light eruption wouldn't explode, it still caused damage, and its power was astonishing. Naturally, no one approached immediately. Moreover, the light was exceptionally blinding, and everyone instinctively covered their eyes. When the light faded, everyone noticed that the corpse of the God of Holy Light rapidly dimmed, appearing to be truly dead.

However, although Li Mingfei died, he did not disappear immediately. Instead, a semi-transparent figure floated up from his corpse and rose from the body of the God of Holy Light.

The spirit is the spiritual entity that a deity transforms into after death. This spirit is immortal and indestructible, but of course, it cannot do anything and can only act as an observer. It is somewhat similar to a ghost, but it is the ghost of a deity, and naturally, it is not an ordinary ghost.

After defeating Elune, and Odin, God of War, similar spirits appeared. At first, everyone attacked them a few times, but later they found that the spirits were completely untouchable and did not cause any damage. It was just background information in the game, so no one paid any attention to it.

At this moment, everyone completely ignored the divine soul of the God of Holy Light and instead focused their attention on the staff in the corpse's hand.

"Quick, kill him! Grab the Scepter of All Gods!" Shen Yuan roared at the others.

In fact, without him saying a word, the instant Li Mingfei died, everyone rushed towards Li Mingfei body.

The Scepter of All Gods is undoubtedly something everyone desires, not just the sages, but also all the bosses and heroes present.

Some of them learned of the existence of the Scepter of All Gods through various documents and ancient texts, while others simply followed the crowd or acted instinctively out of a pursuit of power. The bosses and heroes under the command of the God of Holy Light had either died or fled and had long since disappeared, making it a perfect opportunity for them to make their move.

However, a few people rushed towards Medivh, trying to rescue Shen Yuan.

Merlin, the Sage of Fate; Lilith, the Sage of Holy Light; and Ner'zhul, the Sage of Death.

The three people attacked almost simultaneously.

Shackles of Fate!

Divine Judgment!

Finger of Death!

Three powerful spells were simultaneously unleashed upon Medivh.

Medivh waved his hand, Anti-Magic Barrier vanished without a trace, as if the three spells had disappeared into thin air.

The three of them were taken aback at the same time.

The Anti-Magic Barrier can theoretically negate any magical attack. The only problem is that this Anti-Magic Barrier consumes mana. The greater the power of the spell it negates, the more mana is required. Moreover, if the received magic reaches a certain power, the Anti-Magic Barrier may become overloaded.

At this moment, the three sages unleashed their full power simultaneously. The force of three powerful spells would be impossible for an ordinary person to withstand, yet Medivh and the others withstood them with ease. This indicates that their magical power might even surpass that of the three of them combined, which is quite frightening.

These three are no ordinary people; one is a traitorous six-winged seraph, another is the former Lich King, and the third can even control the game code to some extent.

But Medivh seemed unsurprised, casually breaking the combined attack of the three. Then, Medivh calmly looked at the three and said softly, "Your weapons are shattered!"

With a series of cracking sounds, Merlin's Prophet's Staff, Lilith's Holy Angel Longsword, and Ner'zhul's Scepter of Dominion over the Dead all exploded instantly. Keep in mind that all three of their weapons were of orange quality, and even Xiao Yu's Greater Disintegration couldn't destroy them.

"This is... the Greater Prophecy!?" Merlin was the first to react; as a mage, he knew this spell all too well.

The Greater Prophecy is one of the forbidden spells, and it is the most difficult forbidden spell. In theory, only gods can use this powerful magic. Of course, in addition to gods, if mortals possess enough magical power to rival that of gods, they can also use it, such as— Guardian.

The Greater Prophecy requires an extremely powerful magical force to support it. Even Medivh, after losing the power of the Guardian, would not be able to use such powerful magic.

Unless— Medivh's Guardian powers were never lost.

This thought instantly filled Shen Yuan's mind. Recalling Li Mingfei's earlier words, "The power I left you," if Medivh was a pawn Li Mingfei had placed there from the beginning, then the fact that Medivh died after being possessed by Sargeras and thus lost the power of the Guardian became highly suspicious. Perhaps, like Ner'zhul's feigned death and escape, Medivh hadn't actually died, and he still retained the power of the Guardian within him. If that were the case, then things would be very serious.

Trapped, Shen Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of horror.

You have to understand, the Guardian were once incredibly powerful beings who could fight Sargeras, the Demon King, one-on-one. Now they possess Sargeras's memories, so how can they possibly fight them?

No, there are two others who might be able to fight him. Shen Yuan looked at Naiser and Xiao Yu, but when he saw them, he was so angry that his nose almost twisted.

While the sages were trying to rescue Shen Yuan, Xiao Yu, along with the three sages Kairoz and Naiser, and the other BOSS heroes, rushed towards the Scepter of All Gods, completely ignoring Shen Yuan.
