?Chapter 608: Chapter 607: Dark Allies and the Skull of Dreams Chapter 608: Chapter 607: Dark Allies and the Skull of Dreams A surge of heat suddenly swept through the hall, as though a powerful sunbeam had penetrated the roof, moving above the crowd. Accompanying the appearance of this intangible heat, all the gas lamps and candelabra in the hall seemed to be subjected to some inexplicable disturbance and suppression, swiftly dimming, as if sinking into shadow.

However, the Believers of Annihilation present in the hall showed scant reaction to the onslaught of heat, merely looking up at the dome above after a brief rustle of motion.

Richard also looked up. His gaze swept over the opulent draperies, chandeliers, and painted ceiling of the assembly hall—each seemed to be bathed in an invisible sunlight, with a slow play of light and shadow moving across the surface of the dome. In time, the “sunlight” finally converged at the center of the dome, revealing its presence—
There it was, a sphere resembling a fiercely burning sun, its surface aglow with undulating flames, radiating intense light and heat, yet displaying an ethereal, transparent texture. It seemed merely a projection, and then the miniature sun projection gently descended, lowering down to the high platform at the center of the hall, in front of The Saint.

Richard heard whispered conversations and muttering nearby, with some Cultists quietly expressing their discontent—the envoy of the otherworldly creature had become more brazen, forgoing the notification process upon arrival at this sacred gathering place. Other Cultists remarked that the assembly hall should never have been open to the envoys of otherworldly creatures to begin with, their mere presence signifying a defilement of this sacred site.

But The Saint’s voice suddenly rose in everyone’s minds and ears, cutting through the low hum in the hall, “Ah, our ‘ally’ has arrived.”

As his words faded away, the sphere that had descended in front of the platform began to lose its glowing, heating shell. With the light-cast “shell” becoming dim and transparent, its true form thus emerged before everyone’s eyes.

It was a sphere made of grotesquely shaped flesh and numerous coiling tentacles, the surface of which was interspersed with countless eye-like structures—the Scions of the Sun.

This projection slowly stretched its tentacles in space, its myriad eyes swiveling around, and almost simultaneously, an ethereal figure appeared below the Scions of the Sun.

It was a human, clad in the golden-trimmed black robe that represented the rank of a priest among the Sun Cultists, his face adorned with a golden mask fashioned in the style of the sun—the projection of this Sun Priest landed on the central platform of the hall, standing before The Saint, as if a spokesperson.
