"Bam—"
The red factor shield shattered, and Akkaya was knocked away by Edward and somersaulted on the ground.
Before he could stand up, he felt a red light teleport in front of him.
"rest in peace."
Edward swung the butterfly knife downward fiercely, slashing at Akkaya's head.
"Shhh-"
Akkaya's body, which was slumped on the ground, turned into countless red fragments and scattered all over the ground the moment Edward's blade touched it.
As if reacting instinctively, at the moment when the red fragments burst out, Edward swung his sword backwards without hesitation, hitting the spear that Akkaya stabbed from behind -
"clang--"
"Wha...what?"
His red-gold eyes widened in shock, and Akaya looked in disbelief as Edward instantly turned around to block the golden spear in his hand, the corners of his twisted mouth trembling unsightly.
"How can this be..."
Using the power of [Redstone] to create a false all-encompassing fragment, and then stabbing out his golden spear from behind, Akkaya has killed countless powerful enemies in this way without missing a single one.
This is the unique skill of [Red Gold Dragon] Akaya Aziz, [Imaginary Fear].
But right before his eyes, Edward easily saw through his little trick and cracked his attack.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Akkaya quickly took two steps back, but before that, Edward had caught up with him with a flash of red light.
"Shhh-"
The blade of the butterfly knife slashed across the golden breastplate, leaving a deep blood-red mark on it. Akkaya felt a sharp pain in her chest and dodged quickly.
"hateful..."
Edward did not give Akkaya any chance to breathe. The sword with strong factor energy stabbed out like a torrential rain, creating scars on the golden armor one after another.
When Edward completely grasped the initiative of the attack, his speed advantage was fully demonstrated - Akkaya had no chance to launch another active attack and could only allow Edward to continue to force him into a desperate situation.
Finally, after Akkaya had used up the last bit of his strength, Edward fiercely raised his sword upwards.
"clang--"
The tip of the spear that Aloi had used to block was cut off and flew into the sky, emitting a faint golden light in the strong air currents at high altitudes. It then fell to the ground in the distance, making the unique crisp falling sound of metal.
Unable to dodge, and without the slightest chance to activate [Imaginary Fear] again, Akkaya could only watch helplessly as the sharp blade with a red glow came through the wind and pierced into his chest.
"Ah... cough cough..."
High up on the top of the Tower of Babel, Edward pressed down hard on Akkaya's shoulders. The sharp blade that had penetrated his heart was violently twisted by him, and even the golden armor was left with blazing burn marks.
With just one mistake, the chief warrior of the Wilkin Guards, the Prince of Wilkin, the [Red Gold Dragon] Akaya Aziz was hunted like prey without any chance to fight back.
There is not even a chance for a head-on confrontation.
The red-gold eyes gradually lost their luster, and Akkaya fell to his knees tremblingly. He looked up at Edward and a miserable smile appeared on his pale face.
Then, under the gaze of Edward's silver eyes, he opened his mouth for the last time:
"Ashes to ashes...dust to dust..." (Wilkin)
After saying this, Akkaya died. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, streaking across his golden armor.
Edward pulled out his butterfly knife, spun it a few times, and shook off the blood, then let Akkaya's body fall to the ground in the arena.
It's finally over, isn't it?
Thinking of this, Edward looked towards the sky in the northeast, which was the direction of Wilkin.
[The Blood Pact] has been completely broken, and this farce known as [Blade of Babel] has finally come to an end.
Edward put the butterfly knife back to his waist and sighed deeply.
Okay, he shouldn't waste any more time and should go back.
I have made an appointment with Pearlis this time, and I will definitely not be late again.
Yes, it's all over, it's time to fulfill the promise.
In the strong wind at the top of the Tower of Babel, Edward raised his head and looked at the sky.
Right above this death arena, a huge core was slowly rotating with the support of more than a dozen pointed pillars, with a hint of red light lingering around it.
That is the [Core] of the Tower of Babel, and also the weapon that the Tower of Babel uses to launch attacks.
The dozen or so pointed pillars are inlaid with [Redstone], which is used to charge the core. Once charged, the core will emit factor energy and direct the powerful factor annihilation beam to any corner of the continent through the directional prism.
Edward shouted loudly to the huge [Core]:
"Laplace, I am the winner, it's time to fulfill my promise."
"..."
The wind was howling, and the core was still spinning slowly in the strong air currents at high altitudes. However, no one responded at all.
Edward became alert. Normally, when a winner is chosen, the old guys in the Academy will announce the result personally. They look forward to the moment when the winner is chosen in every competition, which means they can get brand new lackeys.
However, at this moment, at the top of the Tower of Babel, no other sounds were heard except the whistling sound of the wind.
"Laplace?" Edward called out again, but there was still no response.
In a trance, a sense of foreboding suddenly rushed into Edward's mind. He wanted to turn around as a nervous reaction, but suddenly there was a loud noise above his head -
"Rumble--"
The [core] of the Tower of Babel suddenly trembled, and a shock wave spread out, causing Edward's eyes to go dark. He used all his strength to barely stand on his feet and not be knocked down by the sudden shock wave.
“W..what..?”
Edward covered his ears as the violent shock wave continued. The shock wave made his internal organs tremble and almost blocked all his senses, leaving no room for thinking.
When the violent shock wave ended, Edward staggered to his feet, his vision still a little dark.
Before he could come to his senses, a gunshot was heard in the distance.
"boom--"
The factor shield was shattered in an instant. Edward felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder and spat out a stream of blood.
"Um..what..?"
Edward covered his shoulder in pain and staggered around. At the other end of the arena, he saw the faintly flickering green light.
Green...green light? Could it be...
Before he could think, the second gunshot resounded throughout the top of the Tower of Babel. The bullet that broke through the air hit his abdomen, creating a huge hole in it.

[Element Setting ] Factor Energy Technology Tree (Destruction Factor, Factor Technology)
Doom Factor
Mysterious particles that have been filling the air of the Admir continent since a certain period of time cannot be seen by the naked eye, and there is no physical collision volume at all. Rather than some real particles, the destructive factor is more like some kind of particles attached to this layer of space.
At a certain time, the [College] of the Academi Federation used Vo1d crystal/redstone as a medium to gradually develop these destructive factors attached to space into a kind of usable energy, and created a series of technologies based on factor energy. From various cold weapons and factor shields attached with factor energy, to vehicles driven by factor energy, [Star Track] suspension trains, and even large-scale lethal weapons [The Babel].
Today, the Destruction Factor has become an indispensable part of the technology tree of the Ademir Continent. Most of the technologies of the Akademi Federation rely on the Destruction Factor, which makes its technological development far higher than any other region. However, regions like Thebite and La Watino have very little civilian use of the Factor, which has also caused huge differences in civilization and life between countries.
......
【Vo1d Crystal】
The crystal ore mainly produced in the vicinity of the coast of Thebite, Wilkin, and Deira. According to the research of the Academian Academy of Sciences, it is not the original ore from this land. It is estimated that it is an alien mineral brought by meteorites at a certain time.
The composition of the Vo1d crystal cannot be accurately analyzed using existing technology. Its composition has a strange compatibility with the destruction factors floating around in the air. When in contact with the air, the Vo1d crystal will continue to slowly absorb the destruction factors in the air and store them in the crystal. Then, as long as a certain amount of energy form is used to catalyze the Vo1d crystal (electric catalysis, fire catalysis, physical catalysis), the factors can be converted into energy inside it and output.
Generally, the Vo1d crystal will become part of the factor trap, acting as an absorption source to capture the factor and import it into the energy container. However, because the Vo1d crystal itself can accommodate the destructive factor, it is also used as a battery in some uses. At the same time, the Vo1d crystal will
When the Vo1d crystal is shattered, a small-scale energy burst will be generated. Although it is not enough to cause huge damage, it will basically destroy the basic structure of the factor trap, thus causing the factor device to be scrapped.
Vo1d crystals are generally blue, and a small number of red crystals are called [redstone], which are extremely rare.
The factor capture ability and conversion rate of redstone are much higher than ordinary Vo1d crystals, and it is also extremely rare. The main holders are represented by the thirteen seats of [Blade of Babel Tower].
......
【Factor Technology Tree】
After gaining partial monopoly over Vo1d crystals and most of the top scientific research talents on the continent of Admir, Akademi used the characteristics of Vo1d crystals to develop the [Factor Technology Tree].
Simply put, factor technology generally includes a circulation system that can convert destructive factors in the air into usable energy. The system includes at least one Vo1d crystal and an energy catalyst, which can convert energy according to the properties and size of the Vo1d crystal.
Representative products include [Factor Shield] [Factor Blade] [Factor Engine] [Tower of Babel]
......
【Factor Shield】
The Stand Shield, made with the Factor Technology using Vo1d Crystal as the core, is an Active Defense System (ADS) that will be deployed intelligently when the shield is attacked. It has extremely high sensitivity and can intercept almost all damage from bullets, artillery and other equipment. However, its defense against weapons driven by Factor Energy is extremely limited.
The reaction area of the factor shield almost covers the area very close to the body surface, so it can also play an extremely excellent defensive role in close combat. And because its mechanism is an ADS, the factor shield will basically only lose its defensive effect when the energy is exhausted, and will not be partially broken (except in special circumstances).
The color and strength of the Factor Shield depends on the Void Crystal at its core. Normal Factor Shields are blue, while Redstone-driven Factor Shields are scarlet.
The deployment mode of the Factor Shield is not limited to ADS, and its uses are not limited to resisting damage. In high-intensity environments (high altitude, rapids, rolling down a hillside...), the Factor Shield's stance can be fully deployed to protect the main body from the harsh environment as a layer of stance shield.
At present, as the most applicable single soldier/vehicle equipment, factor shields have become the mainstream equipment for war and special operations. Most qualified armies will equip their senior personnel/commanders with factor shields to reduce energy loss. Currently, the only army that uses factor shields as a standard military configuration is the [Academi Federation. ]

Got Your Six (Part 2)
It's easier than I thought...
Keep it simple. Keep it simple. Keep it simple. Keep it simple.
"Hehehe...it's simple..."
Ivar pulled the bolt hard, and a shell flew out along with red steam and fell to the ground.
This is a special bullet [Thorn] made from redstone fragments. It is not only more powerful, but also has a faster bullet speed.
It was so fast that even [Crimson Shadow] Edward von Valantia couldn't react.
Impossible! Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!
Ivar slowly stood up, put the sniper rifle behind his back, and then walked towards the kneeling figure in the center of the arena.
The strong wind still swept the top of the Tower of Babel. With the cold wind and cold bullets, Ivar walked in front of Edward and stared at his gradually cold face:
"They say that the [Red Shadow] is insurmountable... is that true?"
"..Ivar.."
Edward raised his head weakly, and something flickered in his silver eyes that were gradually losing their luster:
"..Is this what you want...loyal dog?"
"Oh! No! No no no!"
Ivar stretched out a finger and shook it crazily. He took out the scimitar from his waist, slowly lifted Edward's chin with the tip of the knife, and looked at him:
"You are the loyal dog, Edward von Valantia," Ivar slowly slashed the tip of the knife on Edward's cheek, leaving a bloody mark, "You are all loyal dogs...what qualifications do you have to complain about these..."
Loyal dog! Loyal dog! Loyal dog! Loyal dog!
Edward didn't say anything else. His hands hung limply on both sides of his body. Blood continued to flow out of the hole in his stomach, all over the floor.
Ivar stared at Edward for a while, as if he was looking at his trophy. He laughed again, then he stood up and looked down at Edward with his dark green eyes:
"Tell me, Edward von Valantia, besides the loyal dog identity of [Blade of Babel], do you have any other decent titles? Hehehe..."
Ivar quickly spun the blade in his hand, and then pointed it at Edward's throat.
"No, right? No, right? Really, there isn't anything, right? Hehehehe..."
The sharp blade flashed with a cold light and was held high by the dark traitor.
Before the sharp blade came down, Ivar looked directly into the distracted silver eyes and murmured in a low voice:
"I've already told you that I've been watching your back..."
