Chapter 120 Invitations Answered
Ten minutes passed like a flash, and a massive cluster of humans now surrounded the Origin Lust Sword Temple like ants.
This was the moment when all the people, no matter the age or status, were gathered together with high anticipation for their futures while some of them were here to see the Dimension Ruler in person and also know more about the Dimension Tower.
Wilder, with Cayson and their entire entourage, was at the very front. Like their large group, there were also some very powerful dimension-diver teams in the front rows.
They were all here with high ambitions. They would not let this opportunity slip by, and it didn't matter whether Cyrus's words held true or not. Just the possibility of this new power system and getting first hands on it was something to fight over for.
Yet, the Dimension Ruler seemed to have the intention of giving it for free.
"Step aside. Let us pass!" A melodious yet cold voice rang within the masses, drawing much attention.
When people saw who its owner was, they found it was a veiled woman in a black dress. There was another woman in a silver mask standing shoulder to shoulder with her, and there was another woman behind them who had this complicated yet equally cold look in her eyes.
They were naturally Rita and Hilda, while the woman behind was none other than Carla, who bumped into them when they exited the pagoda. Carla's mind instantly changed after seeing Cyrus appear as the Dimension Ruler.
So, she literally implored the two to let her go with them since it would be much easier for her to meet Cyrus with Rita and Hilda.
Rita was naturally against it, and only after hearing Cyrus had invited her into the cult did she agree reluctantly since she didn't want to incur his displeasure.
However, right now, their way was blocked by some armor dimension divers who were blocking normal or weak people from getting closer to the dimension temple.
If Rita and Hilda didn't want to make a mess in this place, since Cyrus clearly stated his intention not to fight, Rita would've already slapped off the guy's face who was blocking her way.
Right now, she was at the high stage of the foundation-building realm and probably as powerful as Carla despite their difference in rank.
"Just let me see some ID, and you can go ahead if you're an experienced rank diver. If you're not, then this is no place for you. Just stay behind. We don't want to appear uncouth and weak in the presence of the Dimension Ruler." A burly man coldly stated with unyielding eyes.
The surrounding others couldn't agree more with him as they were all powerful figures, and in their eyes, they deserved to be the first to enjoy the blessing of the new dimension temple and even enter it.
Furthermore, they were still thinking that if they could gain more by entering the temple first or being part of such a group.
"Heh, if you don't want to displease the Ruler, then fuck off before it's too late." Rita coldly uttered as she was getting impatience now.
Even Hilda's eyes were narrowed coldly while Carla was about to reveal just who these two were. Although she had made up her mind to submit to Cyrus fully, this didn't mean she had lost her touch and arrogance of an epic class.
"Let me see if you have the skill to pass me then." The burly man didn't clear the way as the people behind him sneered since they also didn't though much of Rita's empty threat.
Furthermore, they knew what the Dimension Ruler's intentions were when he invited everything here, even ordering goblins not to obstruct the human way. He clearly didn't want any problem here.
So, if these women attack, they will be the one who suffers if the Ruler gets annoyed.
"You…" Rita's eyes shimmered in purple mist at this moment.
But before she could attack, an ethereal voice rang in everyone's ears.
"I never articulated to obstruct my women's way now, did I?"
When close to 1.9 million humans heard this voice, they all felt their hearts tremble because they knew who was the owner of this voice.
They all looked up and saw a tall figure standing in the sky with his hands behind his back while looking down on everyone with his impassive two-color eyes. It was naturally Cyrus who had appeared outside the Temple.
However, what they were all astonished about were the words he just spoke.
'Who are his women?!' This thought rose in almost every human's mind.
At this moment, where Cyrus stood, golden lotuses started to materialize, they were a total of five, and the next moment those golden lotuses suddenly descended in the masses.
Everyone looked at those golden lotuses while holding their breaths and followed just where they were going.
Three of them were directly descended at the front where the commotion was coming from a moment ago.
When those people blocking Rita and Hilda's way saw those golden lotuses coming right in their direction, the colors on their faces started to change when they remembered what Rita had just said, and they were as white as ghosts when they saw those three lotuses stopped right in front of three ladies' steps.
Rita couldn't help but sneer coldly with clear ecstasy in her eyes, "I told you he would not be happy."
With that remark, she stepped over the golden lotus, and Hilda didn't even bother to look at those ashen-face idiots and stand over her own lotus.
While Carla felt her heart beat wildly when she saw the golden lotus in front of her, and she looked at Cyrus standing over the sky with a complex yet worshiped look, 'So he didn't forget about me…'
She then stepped over the lotus without hesitation, as it was her answer to Cyrus's invitation.
Those golden lotuses then enveloped them in a golden barrier before they started to float toward Cyrus like beautiful holy rides. Those three instantly became the target of envy of millions of eyes.
Not only that, but there were still two golden lotuses left, and when everyone saw who they had stopped in front of, they were all quite surprised when they saw those two golden lotuses were affixed in front of abnormally tall women.
They were naturally the twin giants Leo and Leona.
When these two sisters first saw Cyrus in the temple, they were given the shock of their life before they finally understood what kind of invitation Cyrus had given them, and he wasn't messing around.
Furthermore, when they found just how alluring and valuable Cyrus was to virtually everyone present in this place, their heart was filled with regret when they thought about how they didn't accept when they had the chance.
Then they thought Cyrus was probably messing with them.
However, when they heard Cyrus's words just now, they felt their heart race for some reason with great anticipation. And when they finally saw the golden lotuses heading their way, their hearts almost burst out of their chest.
Now, they were looking at those lotuses with disbelief and bewilderment, as if they were dreaming.
"You two idiots, what are you doing dozing off for? Go step on it before Brother-in-law changes his mind!" It was Paul's hastened voice as he nudged his sisters to step on those lotuses quickly.
Paul could be said to have the most complicated emotions since he had seen Cyrus inviting his sisters to his cult, and then he found just what kind of terrifying existence Cyrus was, a Dimension Ruler!
Even right now, he felt like he was dreaming, but he knew it was as real as it could get. Furthermore, Cyrus also seemed to be really interested in his sisters since he clearly gave them a chance to stand alongside him.
Although Cyrus clearly ignored his existence both times, he didn't mind as long as his two sisters could find a place beside Cyrus. As a brother who holds his sisters dear, he naturally wants them to find someone they can love and who can also keep them safe and happy.
Cyrus could be said to have all these traits, and not only that, but he will naturally get some sunshine once his sisters get close to Cyrus, so it wasn't like he was getting nothing out of it.
Most importantly, his miserable life as his sisters' test subject would finally be over, which almost made the man cry with pure bliss as he even called Cyrus Brother-in-law!
Both Leo and Leona were snapped out of their stupor when they heard Paul's embarrassing words, and for the first time, they blushed before giving him a fierce glance.
"Don't spout nonsense, little scoundrel!"
"I'll deal with you, brat, after I greet Lord Lust!"
Both sisters shyly chided him before they stepped over those lotuses as they didn't have time to deal with their foolish brother since the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was waiting for them; they would naturally not forget about him.
The next moment, they both started to fly off under Paul's gentle smile. He was truly happy while he glanced at Cyrus standing at the top of the sky majestically before mirth shone in his eyes,
'I want to be like him!'
