Lord Shadow

Chapter 1032: Precious treasure



In the skies of Pandemonium, someone is approaching toward the forest with the speed of lightning.

The sky trembles and the wind roars.

At the same time, in that safe house, Riana no longer hesitates.

‘Father’ she shouted and then she made the first move. Power bursted out from her as a shockwave exploded all around her. 

Flames comes out from her eyes and her entire being is burning with life force. She burns her life force to increase her energy.

Air pulsates around her like she is some kind of tornado. The green mist that is about to wash over her was forced to split apart by that potent life force.

She is resisting. 

The table and the chair around them were instantly vaporized into atom particles.

All the other furniture on the first floor and the second floor also exploded as the force coming out from Loki body sweeps the entire house. 

But Riana had managed to resist it and she also extend the same repelling force to Nathan. If not both of them would be flung backward by now.

In the basement, is the precious treasure that belongs to both Nathan and Riana. 

It is also the most protected place in the entire house. Loki immediately frowned. Now he understood why he could not seal the entire house completely.

As he was thinking this, Riana shot a punch towards him. 

The punch is heading straight toward his face. But Loki seems to not care as his eyes seem to see through the ground and look at the basement.

He saw runes in the basement walls. There is a force attacking his mind the moment he tries to see at the basement

But that force was instantly broken the moment it tries to attack his mind. Loki specialties lies in his deep knowledge of the study of runes.

He daresay that on the Earth right now, there is no one more adept in the study of runes than him. hence, to him it is easy for him to break that force from entering his mind

But for anyone other than Loki, that rune would have made the person confounded and confused. 

He also saw that the runes were quite exquisite and unique. 

Runes combination and array formation ranging from protection formation to Confounding and Diffusing Array formation were carved onto the walls and even on the tiles of the floor.

There is even an Anti-Divine Sense devices and Psionic Coating over the crystal like door in the basement.

Loki was surprised that Riana was able to create such a place that even he did not notice until right now.

The moment he was thinking of this, the punch finally hit Loki face. 

But the moment that the punch hit his face, Riana face immediately frowned. 

Because the moment that the punch hit Loki face, she felt like she was punching air. 

And she was right. 

Loki face morph the moment that punch connected as it exploded into a mist of green.

It fuses with the already thick green mist that covers the area around them as Loki appears behind Nathan. 

Nathan did not want to drag Riana with him but that did not mean when he is face to face with his own mortality that he would not flinch.

He flinched.

And by flinching, it means he wanted to escape from Loki.

He wanted to buy time for Riana. After all, he was the target and not her

His foot kicks the ground and he glided forward. Loki. Loki only smiles as he makes a spiral motion with his hand. 

A powerful force gathers around his hands. The air cracks and the ground seems to be pushed downward by some gravity force.

The entire house appears like it is going to collapse. The roof gave out and turns to dust the moment it falls down. 

The pillars all cracked and the tiles dissipated into atom particles.

But Loki controls it so it did not destroy the entire house. He seems to have some other reason to make sure that the house did not get destroyed. 

the green mist seems to take the place of the walls and the pillars and so it was reconstructed with the green mist as the foundation. 

In that moment, not only did Loki reconstructed the house with the green mist, he is also trying to capture Nathan. 

When he makes that spiral motion with his hand, a powerful pulling force also appears from his hand. And the target of this pulling force is none other than Nathan

Nathan eyes widened as he could feel his body is pulled backwards. 

He tries to mobilize his energy but the pulling force was so strong that he felt like his bones will be dislocated if he tries to run forward.

Riana was still on the other side of the room. She had just punched Loki incarnation before realizing that Loki was trying to capture Nathan

‘No!’ Riana said as she uses her super speed to appear almost in an instant in front of Loki. She quickly throws a punch at that instant

This time Loki did not turn into a green mist.

Instead, he deflects the punch and then capture her wrist.

‘What were you hiding in the basement, Ana?’ Loki said. The moment he said this, Nathan who had almost wanted to give up and accept his fate suddenly burst out with energy.

He might not have that powerful attack power. But what is under the basement is not something that Loki should touch. He would not allow it.

Riana on the other hand was pale in the face. Loki still did not use any killing methods toward Riana. 

He did not like taking unnecessary life. 

The target had always been Nathan. 

Not this woman that he had raised since she was young. 

At time he might sound cold but the fact that Loki did not immediately blast Riana into pieces with his power shows how much he cares about her

Loki then flung her away. 

BOOM1

A powerful shockwave fills the area as she was flung to the other end of the living room. Loki did not use his full power 

If he did she would not be simply flung to the end of the corner of the living room. And the green mist seems to cushion her crash

Riana immediately wanted to get up but the green mist suddenly morphs into the shape of a rope.

It then flew with the speed of lightning toward Riana and bind her to the wall. Loki narrowed his eyes as he looks toward Nathan

‘Now, it’s your turn’

At the same time this was happening in the safe house, his ravens a few thousands of kilometers away look toward the sky and saw something flying in the sky. 

The ravens then flew away from the branches. But before it could run far away a sword will descend upon these ravens and split all of them apart.

Loki who was in the house, clicked his tongue.

‘She is near’ he muttered to himself. The scene that the ravens saw was also transmitted to him. 

The ravens are like his surveillance camera.  And now they have fulfilled their task. He knew that the time is near.

He is now at the right place at the right time.

He clicks his fingers and his body exploded into a mist of green. Riana had managed to release herself from the rope that binds her with a powerful burning of life force

And Nathan no longer felt that pulling sensation. Loki had disappeared from the living room. He seems to have suddenly left them alone.

But they both did not feel at ease. Instead both Nathan and Riana look at each other and with one look they both understand each other

The basement, they thought at the same time. Nathan runs toward the basement with his own super speed and the same for Riana.

As they were running toward the basement, Loki was already there. 

The formations and the arrays were broken almost immediately the moment it touches even one part of Loki body.

Like a sharp knife tearing over paper.

He appears in front of that crystal door. And his eyes narrowed. Inside that eyes of his, permutation of all kinds of runes formation seems to flash by inside his eyes.

His eyes seem to analyzing the runes on the door. 

He smiles as the runes on the door glows menacingly. But Loki did not seem to care as slam his palm upon the door.

In his palm, a runic formation materialized floating in front of his palm. 

His palm strikes the door. In that split second, that runic formation on his hand slam the door, it seems to solve all the arrays of the door.

So, in that split second the runes on the door was neutralized and the only thing that remains was the powerful force of his energy slamming down on a normal crystal door after being stripped of its array protection.

The crystal door cracks in a thousand direction and then it exploded downwards.

‘Hmm. It seems they put a lot of thought in this’

The door after being destroyed did not burst into fragments but instead it was a programmed reaction after being destroyed.

‘They were protecting something’ he thought to himself.

‘What treasure is here that they need to protects it this much?’
