699 Chapter 699: Ruthless
Since Ryder was the wealthiest and most influential person on earth, his words carried a lot of weight. A single sentence from him was enough for people to control all the news as he wants.
Even truths were subverted, and this incident was covered as a prank. However, there was still a lot for Ryder to finish. He disconnected the call, and put the phone in his pocket.
From high in the sky, he looked at the cops around the Barrier Dome, trying to gain an entry inside to save people.
Some cops were even shooting at the barrier and using explosives, but nothing worked. The barrier was impossible to break using mortal means
Ryder rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache. He didn’t want to manipulate people, but he had no choice. He didn’t have the social fabric of the society on earth he destroyed so easily.
The people of this world weren’t supposed to know of the supernatural. If they did, then he couldn’t even imagine the outcome and he fear it could cause. Fortunately, the inciden was only limited to this area for now.
Ryder’s eyes turned darker. An ancient divine energy surrounded his body. The energy spread out, shrouding all the cops and the people in the area.
Within seconds, the entire city was covered under his abilities. All the cops, citizens or even the higher ups in this city that knew about this incident were controlled by Ryder.
The people who were here were controlled and commanded to go back to their homes or work and forget everything that happened. On the other hand, the people who weren’t here simply had their memories erased.
Ryder knew that manipulating people’s minds like this was a dangerous game, but he believed it was the only way to protect the fragile balance between the divine world and ordinary human society.
He had seen the chaos that ensued when these two realms collided, and he feared what might happen if the truth got out. He liked earth for what it was, and didn’t want it to change.
Once he was sure that everyone’s memories had been altered or erased, he descended from the sky and landed gracefully on the ground.
All the people turned around like puppets, and walked away from this area. On the other hand, the cops kept their weapons and Explosives back. They got back in their cars and went back as well.
The Air Force planes that were on the route to this place also turned around, returning to their bases.
Ryder took a deep breath, his heart heavy with the burden of the choices he had just made.
He knew he had tampered with the natural order of things, and that always came with consequences. But he believed that it was necessary to prevent chaos.
The city that was once bustling with life and energy now seemed eerily quiet, as if the very essence of its existence had been suppressed.
The actions he was forced to take was nothing compared to the mess that Caen had caused. Ryder’s anger still hadn’t subsided.
The small cube still remained in his hand. He casually tossed the cube high in the sky, after covering it with his Divinity to break the barrier before him.
The Cube kept flying higher and higher, before it finally stopped and started the descent.
Ζ₯andasnovel.com As the cube came down, the Divine Energy around it only intensified, making it fierce to be reckoned with. However, strangely enough, that force was contained around the cube.
The cube that was made from ordinary metal being compressed had become something Divine.
Soon, the Cube crashed on the barrier.
The barrier that appeared unbreakable shattered like it was made from a fragile piece of glass. The impact caused a shockwave that rippled through the surrounding environment.
The shockwave was so powerful that it caused buildings to tremble and windows to shatter, but as quickly as the force had erupted, it subsided. The barrier was gone.

Inside the Barrier Dome, Ryder found a scene of devastation. The aftermath of Caen’s reckless actions was evident. Streets were littered with debris and overturned vehicles.
Blood could be seen everywhere, as if bearing the witness of the tragic event that had taken place here.
On regular intervals, limbs of ordinary mortals could be seen, severed and scattered, as a haunting reminder of the chaos that unfolded.
The once bustling area of the city now lay in ruins, its spirit crushed under the weight of destruction.
Even though Ryder had expected something bad to happen, this sight was even beyond what he thought. As his heart sank, he couldn’t help but wonder how Caen could inflict such destruction upon mortals who couldn’t even protect themselves.
How could a person enjoy this massacre?! How could someone who killed innocent Mortals be called a God?!
He was angry when he came here, but now a trace of terrifying killing intent could be felt from him as he maneuvered through the wreckage, careful not to stumble upon any more remnants of the humans.
The sky that used to be clear until recently had turned dark, shrouding in the dark clouds. Lightning cracked through the sky, illuminating the devastation below.
The once vibrant streets lay in ruins, the echoes of screams and cries still haunting the air. He clenched his fists, pondering the sickening pleasure someone could derive from such destruction.
The air turned freezing cold, having a trace of something inexplicable.
…..
Caen had just finished playing with the mortals. The sight was interesting, but he didn’t feel like it was enough.
He stood up, preparing to leave, now that there was nothing fun left here. However, as soon as he stood up, he felt something strange.
He suddenly looked up. The barrier broke right before his eyes, which stunned him. There was someone in the lower world who could break the barrier?
An object fell right at his feet, causing the ground to tremble. Even Caen momentarily lost his balance, finding himself in the middle of the crater with a metal cube before his feet.
