"Look, what is that?" Olina pointed to the horizon with wide eyes.
“O-God—is it cracked?!”
"This is a sign of disaster!"
"Run away, something is going to happen here!"
The dragon girl was obviously not the only one to discover this strange scene - a pillar of light appeared in the depths of Baiyao Mountain that reached into the sky. There were billowing fire around it, and the sky was illuminated red! The sky that was clear just a moment ago seemed to be burning, and what ignited it was this soaring flame.
But what's even more incredible is that, the light pillar actually tore a circular hole above the zenith. The hole was pitch black, which was in sharp contrast with the surrounding sky!
That's not an illusion.
Because of the appearance of the black void, the sun's light was dimmed a bit. The afternoon sky suddenly turned to dusk, and long shadows were cast under the feet of the houses and people.
Anyone who sees this celestial phenomenon will scream bad, especially for the residents of Baili Town at the foot of the mountains. Shock and fear quickly spread among the crowd, and some people even knelt on the ground and looked towards Baiyaoshan kept kowtowing, as if he would be blessed by the gods in this way.
Qian Ye was extremely surprised. Although he had seen the Nine Heavens Thunder and knew that Xia Fan had the ability to induce celestial phenomena, opening a hole in the sky was too much. "That guy... is getting more and more beyond imagination..."
"This is not necessarily what Xia Fan did!" Olina said anxiously, "What if something happens to the ruins itself, or a strange phenomenon caused by the Black Sect? It's better for us to go back to the patio area as soon as possible. .”
"Indeed, you are right." Qian recovered from his surprise, "I will go find the person in charge of the Jinxia Army right away."
Even so, he always felt that this matter had something to do with Xia Fan.
It was after this guy came into the Privy Council's sight that the number of strange things he experienced suddenly increased.
—I thought that after being promoted to Hagoromo, there would be few surprises in this world that could move him. But now it seems that he thinks of people in the world too simply.
However, since this level of abnormality has occurred, the Jinxia Army cannot mobilize the whole army. At least a thousand people must be left to maintain order to prevent the people of Baili Town from taking excessive actions in panic.
"By the way, bring the princess from Natadine with you." Olina added, "Even if the worst happens, if she is here, there will at least be a chance to remedy the situation."
Although the dragon girl didn't have much favorable impressions of the vampires, she didn't care so much at this time.
…
This is how an escape tower is launched.
Xia Fan looked at the evil spirits being thrown into space and couldn't help but whistle.
In an emergency, a gravity launch can be carried out here every three minutes, projecting all the spacecraft in the patio in one go. At the moment of launch, the gravity in the well will be completely reversed, as if a separate and controllable gravitational body is created above the wellhead, dragging all objects including air, accelerating to dozens of times the speed of sound in a short period of time. , sending the projectile into the predetermined orbit in one go.
He finally knew now that the scene the Pope had foreseen was not the noise caused by Heaven itself when it took off, but the escape tower launching a full-power launch. The flames spouting out do not come from the spacecraft, but from the accelerated gases in the well. When they rush out of the well mouth, the temperature can reach over a thousand degrees, which is no different from the flames ejected from the muzzle.
As for the sound of shattering mountains... Can a "geocentric cannon" with a diameter of several kilometers be silent when it fires
The moment he gained access to the bottom floor of the escape tower, Xia Fan also learned about most of its functions, so he came up with this method to break the situation.
Facts have proved that in the face of gravity launch, evil spirits are not much different from spaceships and cargo. Even the group of winged charms cannot resist the high-speed air waves of dozens of Mach.
However, the dome above the launch silo was actually controlled by the escape tower. Xia Fan thought to himself that he was originally worried about whether launching Xiehui would damage the outer protective shield, but it seemed that he was worried blindly.
"The threat of the chaotic entity is eliminated, and the cleaning process is suspended." Along with the electronic sound of the system, the red countdown flashed twice and disappeared completely. "The damage rate of the charging system is 12%, and no second emergency launch can be carried out in a short period of time."
"I don't have any targets to launch anymore. Let's reopen all the closed doors." Xia Fan turned his gaze to his companions, "Luo Qingqing, Li, go ahead—the rest of the enemies will be left to you!"
In fact, he doesn't need to explain it alone.
Although it was unclear what Xia Fan had done, both of them saw everything that happened in the well through stereoscopic projection. The magic brake that threatened them was completely torn apart, and most of the bodies lying outside the wall were thrown into the sky. Only a small section remains in the passage. Even if the evil spirit does not have the same obvious dangers as other creatures, serious injuries to the body will also lead to a significant decrease in recovery ability and difficulty in maintaining the breath. This is a good time to completely eliminate it.
As soon as the shaking subsided, Li and Luo Qingqing ran out of the control room and rushed towards the passage they came from.
The torn flame Ravana has completely lost its original appearance. It looks like gray mercury. Even if it can still flow slowly, it can no longer continue to create high heat.
The next thing they have to do is to eradicate the root cause.
Xia Fan did not continue to pay attention to the situation at the bottom. He believed that the two of them could handle it. What really needs attention is the upper level of the patio -
He raised his head, and countless images flashed through his eyes. After a moment, his eyes rested on a figure in a remote corridor, "I found you."
…
Yao Wu opened the glass bottle, then took out an ancient book from her arms and opened it to the last page.
The characters on it seemed to be pulsing, tempting her to read them out. It was said that if one could not fully understand the meaning of the spell, just looking at the characters would cause one to go insane and either become an idiot or completely crazy.
This is the chaos spell of Xiji. Although it was greatly influenced by Yongwang's research in the past, they still found a new path. In terms of creating evil spirits, this kind of soul spell that can directly communicate with the world of the dead is more convenient.
The characteristic of this technique is that the stronger the soul, the stronger the evil spirits it can attract.
In the patio area, there are as many high-quality souls as there are.
Yao Wu closed her eyes and began to recite the incantation -
"Hey, what a coincidence. Isn't this Lord Pingtian?"
At this moment, a sudden voice suddenly sounded, causing her to almost break the bottle containing the soul in her hand. But even if she clenched her fingers tightly at the last moment, the interrupted spell reversed the breath that had gathered in her, and she opened her mouth to spit out a cloud of blood mist.
"Cough, cough..." Yao Wu covered the blood dripping from the corner of her mouth and turned her head to look behind her.
The person talking to him was none other than Xia Fan.
