If you observe from a height overlooking the earth, you will see that war is breaking out throughout the entire Western Continent.
As the 'first phase' was completed, the black fog in the sky began to settle downwards.
This caused "dark particles" to begin floating across the earth. Although the concentration was far lower than that in the reverse world, it still had a significant impact on ordinary people.
Initially, the immune system is attacked. If not treated promptly and over time, organ failure will begin to occur.
Inferred based on the model of Skyfort.
This process can take from one year to half a year.
But if the environment continues to deteriorate, the concentration of 'dark particles' will continue to increase.
Then, this process will be shortened.
In the worst cases, an average healthy person may die of organ failure within three to five days.
Or be contaminated by "dark particles" and become a member of the dark people.
Now.
As for the pollution of "dark particles", humans currently have limited means.
The fortress that is still resisting the black people can only let the soldiers wear full-body protective clothing and build underground isolation rooms for soldiers to rest and rotate.
For a fortress of this size, such as the 'Fortress of War', a large amount of asterism crystals are used to create an isolation barrier generator against the 'dark particles'.
These barrier generators are distributed around the fortress, forming a closed astral force field, preventing "dark particles" from penetrating into the city.
Even so, protective clothing is still needed when fighting outside the city.
At this time, outside the Castle of War.
The war was raging.
Dense black waves continuously impacted the fortress's defenses.
Beams, shells, missiles, flamethrowers, and various abilities interweave to create dazzling colorful lights.
Cleaning the earth over and over again, shoveling away the black turbid current spreading across the earth.
The impact of explosions continued to appear on the battlefield.
Every second, one could see those twisted and strange figures flying into the air in the flames.
Then, the figures became even more distorted.
The battle was so fierce.
Even in the city, one could feel the buildings shaking and the ground vibrating.
The same is true for the headquarters of the Church of the Lord of War.
In a corridor, Guan Feng was walking quickly, and the black-robed cardinal had an extremely gloomy look on his face.
The priests following behind kept exchanging glances.
"Did Castle of Glory really issue a statement in conjunction with the Church of the Goddess of Glory?" Guan Feng said as he walked.
A priest behind him said quickly, "That's right, respected Archbishop. We received this statement not long ago."
"At the same time, other churches and strongholds that are still resisting the black people also received the voice."
"Glorious Castle and the Glorious Church announced that City Lord Lin Jianping is the Ultimate. In addition, the head of the Glorious Church, Ms. Tang Xin, called on other churches to put aside their prejudices and work together to support City Lord Lin to fight against the descending gods."
Guan Feng snorted heavily.
"What the hell is wrong with that old lady Tang Xin? Didn't she agree to join forces to put pressure on the person and implement the 'Ultimate Containment Strategy'?"
"This action hasn't even started yet, but she's already changed her mind and is openly supporting Lin Jianping!"
Another priest coughed dryly and said, "We received news that before this message was published, City Lord Lin seemed to have had a conflict with the Glorious Church."
Guan Feng paused: "A conflict broke out?"
The old man frowned: "Could it be that Lin Jianping knows the 'containment strategy'?"
This is the only explanation.
Otherwise, Lin Jianping would have no reason to have a conflict with the church at this time.
If so, it would explain why Lin
Jian Ping will take the initiative to announce his identity as the Ultimate.
Why did the Glorious Church change its mind and support Lin Jianping
I'm afraid that Lin Jianping has discovered some weakness of the Glorious Church.
In addition, once Lin Jianping announced his identity as the Ultimate, he would immediately become the biggest bargaining chip against the gods and would inevitably attract attention from all parties.
If the church were to forcibly assimilate him now, I'm afraid that even if it could save the world, it would not be able to save the church's plummeting reputation.
When Guan Feng thought of this, his chest heaved.
He walked into a room.
At this time, several windows had appeared on the screen in the room.
Saint Su Yun of the Church of Light, Saint Shang Yao of the Emerald Crown, and Mentor Gao Xinghu of the Wilderness of Wisdom are all online.
Guan Feng then made himself appear in front of the screen, sat down, looked at Su Yun and asked loudly: "Saint Su Yun, your church should owe us all an explanation, right?"
Su Yun's expression did not change, as if he had expected Guan Feng to be furious, and he said calmly: "What is there to explain?"
"Our church believes that implementing the 'Ultimate Containment Plan' at this time is not conducive to resisting the black people."
"Now is not the time to engage in internal friction, so we decided to fully support City Lord Lin."
"We have provided the 'Night Crystal' to City Lord Lin, and promised that if there are other Ultimates who need it, we will provide it free of charge."
Guan Feng sneered and said, "Okay, I'll let you be the good guy and you'll get all the benefits."
"This infamy will probably fall on our church, right?"
The Emerald Saint Shang Yao in another window coughed and said, "Bishop Guan Feng, now is not the time to blame the Glorious Church."
"In fact, our long-lost Ultimate Adi has returned recently."
"She also asked us to provide the 'Night Crystal'. From her tone, she seems to be planning to leave the Reverse Realm and prepare to hunt gods."
"If City Lord Lin joins forces with her, the two Ultimates may be able to kill the God Devourer."
Shang Yao smiled and said, "So, our Natural Church also intends to support the statement of Glory Castle."
"Saint Su Yun is right. Now is not the time for internal conflicts."
"As for your concern that the power of the Ultimate is too great and out of control."
"I think that the current situation is so dire that you 'Ultimates' should know what to do first."
"As for other matters, let's consider them after the gods disappear and the world returns to normal."
Guan Feng was shocked.
The Church of Nature has actually found their long-lost 'Ultimate'.
That 'Adi' was the second 'Ultimate One' born in the world after Gawain.
She disappeared shortly after receiving the revelation.
The Natural Church searched for many years but to no avail.
But now it has emerged.
The influence and heritage of the Natural Church have always been overshadowed by the War Church and the Glorious Church.
Now with the help of the 'Ultimate' Adi, Shang Yao feels more confident when speaking.
Thinking of this, Guan Feng sighed inwardly.
The most fundamental reason why the War Church is vigorously promoting the "containment strategy" is that there is no "ultimate person" in the church.
In contrast, the Glorious Church and the Natural Church.
Now one of them has an Ultimate of the War God class, and the other has an Ultimate of the Hunter class.
With two Ultimates, their influence extends beyond the Church of War.
Guan Feng looked at Gao Xinghu of the Wilderness of Wisdom and said, "Elder Gao, what do you think?"
Now, the White Ivory Tower is the last straw for the Church of War.
If the White Ivory Tower supports the "containment measures", we can also join forces
Against the other two churches.
Unexpectedly, Gao Xinghu said in a deep voice: "We did not support the 'containment strategy' from the beginning. It was you, the War Church, who insisted on doing it your own way."
"I will not support you now, Bishop Guan Feng. If we cannot work together to fight against the gods now, I am afraid we will have no chance in the future!"
Guan Feng was silent for a few seconds and then said in a deep voice.
"Okay, I will convey your wishes to the Pope."
"I will give you a reply by this afternoon at the latest."
The online meeting is over.
Guan Feng closed his eyes for a long time before he let out a breath.
... ... ..
Castle of Glory.
The war outside the city continued.
The flames on the battlefield illuminated the dark sky shrouded in black fog.
Xun and Qianhong stood on the balcony, looking at the war outside the city.
Qian Hong suddenly said, "I'm worried about Tian Yang."
Xun's gaze moved and fell on her.
Reaching out his hand and holding Qianhong's palm, Xun smiled and said, "You have to believe him."
"Gods, Ultimate Beings...these are not something we can interfere with."
"Protecting ourselves is the greatest support for Tianyang."
Qianhong raised her head, looked at Xun, and nodded.
Then she looked around: "Where's the bird?"
"She went to see Xitong and said she was worried that the little one was scared and couldn't sleep." Xun said softly.
A passage in the house.
The bird came to Xitong's room and knocked on the door: "Xitong, are you asleep?"
There was no movement in the room.
Xiaoniao opened the door and saw Xitong sleeping on the bed with his back to the door.
"Good boy, you can actually sleep. I was worried about you. It seems that I was worried for nothing."
The bird smiled, then closed the door and left.
After she left, Xitong on the bed sat up and turned around.
Even though they look exactly the same.
But this Xitong had dull eyes and didn't look very smart or spiritual.
She glanced toward the door and then lay back down on the bed.
After a moment.
The shadow in the corner of the room squirmed, and then a figure wrapped in a black aura walked out.
The real Xitong is back.
She seemed very tired, her hair was wet with sweat, and her breathing was slightly rapid.
The dummy on the bed that was transformed from her elemental glands immediately climbed up, its body shrank, its facial features deformed, and finally turned into a gland as thin as a hair and returned to Xitong's body.
Xitong staggered to the bedside and reached out to scratch the back of her neck out of habit.
"What's wrong with me?"
"are you sick?"
"Can I get sick, too?"
“It’s so hard.”
She suddenly lost consciousness.
Fell on the edge of the bed.
Her hair fell down, and the thin slit at the back of her neck suddenly opened up and down.
An eyeball popped out.
A vertical snake pupil!
In a daze.
Xitong regained consciousness.
She looked around blankly.
It is night now.
She was on a street surrounded by dark, gorgeous but twisted buildings, and the road was full of gods and monsters dressed in human clothes.
All the gods and evil spirits looked towards the sky.
I don't know what I'm looking at.
Xitong also raised her head and saw the moon hanging in the sky above the City of Heart.
At this time, the moon turned around.
On the other side of the moon is a golden snake eye!
