[CH598+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Bri's voice echoes throughout a local sector of the massive mountain above the divine flames.

Rodrigo questions all of the top officers within the headquarters they've taken over in mere seconds and finds city maps pinpointing the other control centers that manage security and a link to wire into the transmission coverage across the other nine districts.

Bri's words of the big three that lived in the floating black boxes high in the sky and the fact that the creator of those yellow flames surrounding the tower is being defeated right now is heard by tens of millions of system awakened men and women.

Her words about the Great War get many of the older crowd interested, especially when Bri gives instructions on how to help in the Second Great War, to help finish it once and for all.

Even if they don't know or care what she's talking about, the permanent stat buff bonus that she mentions next brings in the younger crowd's attention.

As her voice echoes through all ten districts of the Central Association's Mountain Civilization, Bri repeats this message over and over again, and small amounts of people begin to give it a try, reciting their sworn loyalty to a mysterious Flame Emperor figure to get a few extra stat points or give in to the fleeting hope that this woman's words of the Great War are true.

It starts off as a slow trickle, but with the expansive scene that is instantly transmitted into their minds of a demonic statue swinging silver swords at a 250m tall flaming figure that can only be called the Flame Emperor, the word spreads like wildfire that it's real...

Echoing transmissions fill every major city, but at the same time, over a dozen red cores and an orange core circle the building that Bri and Rodrigo have infiltrated with angry looks on their faces.

The orange core gives the order for all of the red core Central Association scouts to eliminate the threat.

Meanwhile, a battle begins in the center of the Dark Continent.

Raven's blades clashing against the black-horned demon's spear sends a shockwave through the entire silver dome, notifying everyone that the strongest forces here have begun their battle.

The hazel-eyed sword wielder doesn't want to reveal her divine stealth trump card, as an eerie aura comes off this demon that makes her feel extremely on edge about getting too close.

While the 7-meter-tall demon's appearance is menacing enough, it has a True Core strength slightly less powerful than Raven.

Even its level is just below ten thousand, but the monster has incredible natural strength and Demonic Soul Energy that can easily rival Raven's pure mana.

Their speed and reflexes are very similar as well; there is just a confidence behind the demonic white eyes and an invisible aura that makes her hesitant at first to use all of her tricks.

"Is that all you've got?" the demon laughs while their exchanges begin, and Raven's mind flashes back to the battle she had not too far away from here with the Flame Emperor; going all out with no fear of dying at all, and enjoying the fight itself.

She doesn't yell back, only grins an unnoticeable amount, and disappears before the demon's eyes.

Closer to the tower, the front lines of the Crimson Army's forces collide with one of the demonic forces.

Fisher and Lydia send waves that look like an icy tiger and a water serpent into their main forces, imbued with orange and yellow divine light, killing a dozen red demonic knights instantly, and a single orange-cored general, while the Crimson Army's elemental elites team up to face the red cores left behind injured from the initial strike.
