The brave and fearless Artanis marched towards the depths of the Phantom City with several elite subordinates.
In the beginning, he didn't notice anything, didn't find any danger, but the instinctive vigilance in his heart kept reminding him that he should leave as soon as possible.
Artanis' sense of vigilance has always been very accurate, and he was able to sit in the position of archbishop thanks to this keen intuition. If he hadn't taken into account his identity and responsibility, as well as the missing team, he might have followed his instinct and turned around and ran away. .
As they continued to go deeper, Artanis felt that the vigilance in his heart was gradually fading. It seemed that this strange city became safer and more comfortable, and he was slowly integrating into it.
But at this moment, his heart skipped a beat, he came to his senses instantly, and quickly cast two healing spells to help him stabilize his mind.
Those elite subordinates who followed him, at this moment, could no longer see their usual toughness and ability, their eyes were mixed and blurred, and they continued to walk forward in dismay...
And the armor and decorations on their bodies also began to become lighter and lighter, more and more like the clothes of those phantoms.
Artanis understood something in an instant, quickly took out the scepter in his hand, and sang loudly:
"My lord, may you grant light and blessings..."
As he sang, a gentle light began to emanate from his body, and the subordinates around him also came back to their senses. They tried their best to get rid of the bubble-like illusion on their bodies, and became Back to normal.
Not only them, but many people who were close to Artanis also woke up one after another, and began to rush towards the shining Artanis subconsciously, trying to seek shelter.
"Don't be afraid, everyone! Stay sane and sober!"
Artanis reminded loudly, and at the same time grabbed another subordinate, first blessed him with a magic technique to maintain sanity, and then ordered:
"Go out immediately, find Yeke, ask him to ask for help from the holy city, and send people from the holy church..."
The subordinate nodded again and again, and was about to turn around and leave when Artanis stopped him again:
"Remember, by the way, inform the Miya Sect and tell them that this is a huge enchantment, which is very dangerous! It will assimilate all intruders!"
The subordinate couldn't help being stunned. When encountering such a big event, why didn't he go to the big shots of the other two sects, but what kind of Miya sect
But he didn't dare to ask too much, instead the other companions next to him asked:
"What about you, Archbishop?"
"Try to stop this..."
Artanis said in a deep voice, and pushed the subordinate hard to let him leave quickly, then he called the remaining staff, gathered the surrounding adventurers, and tried to unite them.
But at this moment, the phantom residents around who were still heading towards the city center suddenly stopped, adjusted their directions one after another, and rushed towards him...
"Oops... this is not good... I'm not a fighter"
Artanis muttered in a low voice, frowning slightly.
At this time, Jia Luo, who was far outside the city, suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed:
"Not good! Something powerful is about to emerge in this city, let the people inside come out!"
The old bishop and young bishop Mitheran on the side were taken aback immediately. Before they could speak, they were attracted by the changes in the city.
The phantoms of various buildings in the city began to disappear quickly, allowing the field of vision to broaden instantly, revealing the city center that was originally surrounded by layers of buildings—
There is a huge square where countless phantom residents have gathered. They are kneeling on the square densely and worshiping towards the middle of the square.
There stood a group of pitch-black shadows, although the surroundings were very bright, but this group of shadows seemed to be able to swallow the light, and still maintained the abyss-like blackness.
The originally extremely complicated roads in the city, like mazes and blood vessels, were preserved. They spread wildly around the square with the square as the center. Without the cover of those buildings, these roads looked like The lines of a huge painting are common, together they outline a strange and indescribable pattern.
The old bishop and the young bishop just glanced at the pattern, and felt their scalps go numb, and there were bursts of low-pitched whispers in their ears, which began to lure their consciousness into the black bottomless abyss...
But just when the two were about to faint, they suddenly felt a gentle warmth descending from their heads, allowing them to recover instantly.
"Are you all right?"
Gallo asked nervously:
"I see that you seem to be falling asleep, so I'll quickly write you a frenzy, how is it? Are you awake? Now is not the time to sleep!"
Fanaticism is a magical technique, can it still be used like this
An idea popped up in the old bishop's mind, but he didn't delve into it, and quickly asked:
"You look directly at the pattern, are you okay?"
"What the hell is that?"
"It's a god. It once fell, but there is no dead evil god!"
"And right now, he's trying to recover..."
Gallo said with an incomparably dignified expression.
At this time, Lilian Luo, who was still sleeping, suddenly sat up straight and woke up. Regardless of some messy clothes, she crawled out of the tent and plunged into Jia Luo's arms. His hands were tightly grasping the hem of his clothes, his body was trembling slightly, and pitiful wailing came out from his throat...
"Woo... so scared..."
As if awakened from a nightmare, she kept rubbing against Jia Luo's body, and even the invisible armor on her body was so frightened that it fell off.
So Misseran also saw this cute little loli with blond hair and white silk, and her expression was a little dazed for a while...
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, what's the matter?"
Jia Luo quickly comforted, rubbing Lilian Luo's head with one hand, pinching her feet with the other, her hands were cold, it seemed that she was really frightened, her hands and feet were cold.
"Woo, there is a terrifying evil god sleeping there. Back then, our Dragon Clan spent a lot of effort to defeat him, and sacrificed an ancestor to barely seal him..."
"But now the seal is loose, the evil god is about to come, woo woo woo, I'm going to be eaten by him..."
Lilian Luo said in a crying voice, and then added:
"As soon as I approached here, I resonated with the consciousness of that ancestor and fell into a deep sleep. These things he told me in a dream..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the deep darkness in the middle of the square in the distance finally revealed its true face bit by bit...
It looks like a black egg, and it also looks like a huge stone tablet, engraved with dense spells and runes, it is slowly wriggling, as if something is about to break out of the cocoon.
If you count the time, it is very close to the time when the god lowered the beam of light and announced 'three days later'...
And on the outside of this egg, it was tightly surrounded by a huge skeleton.
The skeleton was huge, with wings on its back, and its entire body was pitch black. Only the skull was still dazzling golden. The posture it held looked like it was embracing the pitch-black egg, or imprisoning this huge stone tablet.
The old bishop just glanced at the stele, and felt a sharp pain in his head, and bloody tears welled up in his eyes...
The many religious people and adventurers who had gathered nearby, about two to three thousand people, had either entered the city at this time, were assimilated into one of them, and were worshiping the stele; I fell into a coma because I stared at something I shouldn't have seen...
There are probably only a few dozens of people who can still move today, and they are surrounding a few strong men, struggling to resist the phantoms that want to assimilate them too.
And the evil god didn't even come, just showing the true face of this ceremony, let the human side throw away their helmets and armor, and they were defeated...
At this time, Bishop Yeke also rushed to the camp of the Miya sect with a few crusaders and paladins in a panic. When he saw the old bishop, he quickly said:
"Master Artanis asked me to come to you!"
"What about others?"
The old bishop asked quickly.
"Fighting inside, trying to interrupt the ritual."
"Why is he so reckless? Have you contacted the Holy City?"
"The homing pigeons have been released..."
"What's the use of releasing pigeons at this time?! Pray to your god!"
The old bishop said eagerly.
"I have prayed, but the Lord has not answered me!"
Bishop Yeke said, and quickly asked:
"What should we do now? To support Master Artanis?"
The old bishop didn't speak, but turned to look at Gallo who was aside.
"Don't panic, stay calm, the situation is not that bad yet!"
Gallo said calmly, and then explained:
"I have carefully checked this enchantment before, and it is still missing a few key nodes, which should require a lot of troublesome materials to complete, and it should be considered concealed before, and these nodes have not been completed yet.. .”
"So this enchantment has not been fully activated, we still have a chance to..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly heard a low roar coming from a distance—the sound of the enchantment being activated.
Gallo quickly looked up, only to see a few airships in the sky emitting a strong green light...
In the previous chaos, no one could notice that these unassimilated airships were slowly drifting towards several areas of the city. They could only be spotted from the perspective of looking down from the sky The hovered area happens to be the few 'missing nodes'
"this... "
Gallo also seemed a little nervous for a while, and quickly pointed to the huge keel, and said:
"The seal of the giant dragon still remains. It is the core and strongest area of the seal. Let's kill it as soon as possible. There is still a chance to make up for it..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw that the only remaining golden skull was also dyed black in an instant...
As for the black stele surrounded by dragon bones, the spells and runes on it were also rapidly dissipating, and soon disappeared completely, leaving only the deep darkness...
The deep darkness began to squirm and twist, like a drop of ink splashed on the paper, spreading to the surroundings, wrapping the surrounding keels in it.
Then, I saw that the whole keel moved, and the bones were covered with a layer of black mucus, which looked like a thin film, as if someone had splashed a bucket of sticky paint on the whole bone.
The whole keel stood upright like a human being, and the wing bones on the back spread out, and the black mucus quickly covered it, stretching it into a pair of dark membranous wings, floating in the air, looking like a bird spreading plague and death. bat.
A strong coercion that seemed to be real spread to the surroundings. The old bishop and others were almost pressed to worship, and they dared not look up...
The little milk cats were also frightened and ran around, and finally Amiya caught them one by one and stuffed them into her apron.
"Why the hell?"
Gallo couldn't help but swear, and quickly grabbed Lilian Luo's twin ponytails, and asked:
"Did your ancestors tell you what we should do now?"
"Woo... run... run..."
Lilian Luo squeaked and said, Lai was in Jia Luo's arms and refused to come out, as if she had forgotten that she was a dragon and could fly, and escaped much faster than Jia Luo.
"No, you can't run... this ritual barrier must be destroyed!"
Gallo quickly explained with the knowledge he had just gained:
"The enchantment here was originally to seal him, but it was eroded and destroyed by someone. Instead, it became the foundation to maintain his existence. As long as he destroys this place before he finds a new foundation..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the huge bat-like monster flying high and drifting towards the direction of the city of innocence, as if ignoring the humans below.
And on the airships in the sky, people with green flames emerged one after another. They landed on the ground with the help of ropes, merged with the phantoms, and rushed towards the people who were still fighting.
One of the group noticed Gallo and the others, and rushed towards them aggressively.
"So I'm really not suitable for technical analysis and narration..."
Gallo said in a very unhappy way, took out two grips from his sleeves, and put them together.
But the old bishop grabbed him by the shoulder.
"Leave this to us, you return to the city of innocence..."
"If no one stops him, it's all over..."
Jia Luo was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized that the evil god had just recovered, and he rushed towards the city of innocence without hesitation. Obviously, that place was more important than this side.
"But... I can resist him? He is an ancient evil god! Although he has just recovered, I just glanced at him, and I feel goosebumps all over my body..."
"Can I really, stop him?"
"Trust me, believe in yourself, believe in our goddess!"
"And your blood, courage, friendship, fetters, love, hope and possibility!"
The old bishop said very seriously.
"But, I can't fly..."
As Gallo said, he looked down at Lilian Luo who was still in his arms...
"Change for me!"
