Chapter 385: Darkness in the Shadows
"The sun god is above, please save us!"
"Great Sun God, your people are asking for your help!"
The first place you pass when approaching the palace is the Temple of the Sun.
Even in the dark, there are still many people who come to worship, and it feels like there are more than usual.
With the help of a little fire in the darkness, hundreds of people ...... Even thousands of people knelt beneath the Temple of the Sun and prayed, praying that their gods would hear and bless them!
"My lord, the carriage is blocked. ”
At this time, the driver who pulled the cart turned his head helplessly and said to Griffin.
There were so many people that almost the entire road to the palace was blocked.
"What shall we do? ”
"What else can I do...... Run back. At this moment, Sean is of course in a hurry, and he has to kill this thing before Ketugea arrives, maybe he can avoid the risk of being destroyed.
"But ......"
"No, come with me. ”
Jumping straight out of the carriage, Sean chose to run to the palace.
The road was full of worshippers......
In the face of such a natural disaster without warning, the power of all human beings seems too small.
It's even so weak that it can't touch one or two at all, and so far there may be no way for many people except themselves, but even if they can find their origin with the help of these years of experience in contact with the ancient gods, they can't even think of a good way to deal with this terrifying creature.
"Hurry up, we're going to get ahead of it. ”
"Ahead of whom?" asked Mierke and Griffin.
In just this short period of time, Mi'er Ke discovered that the young master in front of her had a wisdom and courage that the old master had never had back then, and his research direction had crossed to a point beyond his reach.
"Before the end comes. Sean looked back.
Countless people throughout the street bowed down in the direction of the temple, hoping that their devotion would move the sun god.
The only thing this man can do in the face of disaster is to pray!
..................
When he returned to the palace, the nobles and ministers in the main hall were already tired and resting.
Nowadays, the hall has become more casual than before, and many ministers are sleepy and sleep directly on the benches, waiting for news for several days to no avail.
And the current situation makes it impossible for them to go home and wait, so they can only insist on waiting for news in the main hall.
Even the Sun King was still resting with his eyes closed when Sean ran in.
"Uncle!"
One sound, woke up most of the people around.
The gloomy hall was lit up again.
"Sean, you're back. ”
He had asked him to come back two days before, after all, it was safest in the palace, but Sean insisted on staying in the wizard's clock tower to continue looking for clues.
At present, the entire nation is waiting for his reply, and there are a bunch of headaches, so he will let Sean do it for the time being......
"I've found where the enemy is. ”
Sean's words made many ministers suddenly sleepy.
"Does His Royal Highness know the reason why it's dark?"
Whether it was the Imperial Minister or other nobles, or even his own brothers and sisters, they all looked at him at this moment.
"Yes. Sean said firmly.
"Where are they?"
"Right above our heads!"
Everyone looked at the ceiling in bewilderment.
"Follow me......"
Bringing a kind of ministers and royalty to the outside of the main hall, countless guards followed.
This place is very spacious, which is the area where the Wyvern stopped on the first day he came to the capital of Jagon.
"The enemy is on the black cloud above us, and it is perched in the sky...... It was also it that obscured the sun and made everything dark. Sean said, pointing to the sky.
Everyone also looked up at the dark sky at this time.
In fact, I couldn't see anything outside the pterodactyl dragon knight flying not far away.
The Wyvern Knights still had at least a little bit of illumination, but there was nothing in the sky higher up, just darkness.
"There...... What will be there?"
It sounds weird, but it feels incredible.
There is an enemy in the sky, but why didn't it appear...... And now there are so many pterosaurus riders flying in the sky.
"I have indeed seen that, Your Highness the High King, His Royal Highness has used a special method to find one before. Griffin said.
At this time, the court wizard's awe of Sean is now more than his status!
"And how do we find it?" asked the Sun King.
How to find it.
That's a problem.
What compressed air is a bit ridiculous in the air.
No one has that much ability, at least not themselves...... It is estimated that even among the court wizards, there will not be such a powerful person who can compress the entire air above, and it is difficult for you to compress such a large density change range of a substance to the critical point, and you can't depict any alchemy circle in the sky.
Let them show up unless you do it another way.
Fire!
Flames are the nemesis!
"With fire magic, I need all the powerful court wizards to stand above the pterodactyl and cast spells together, attacking a large area with flames, even if they don't have it, with the aim of making the air burn and ignite the entire surrounding area. ”
Feeling that it wasn't enough, Sean simply offered to let Claude and them help.
Shoot high into the sky with artillery and fire only incendiary bombs!
It doesn't matter if it's not far away, at this moment, the surroundings may be full of monsters in the different planes, and the most important thing is to burn the air and combine it with the magic of so many wizards to make the other party appear.
Judging from the fact that his low-level magic just now can summon a part of the opponent's body, that thing should be able to pass through the barrier of the plane on its own, and the reason why it doesn't come out is just to dodge.
And what it dodges, only Sean understands what!
"No, in that case, the sparks will burn some of the houses of the capital. Mu Dan suddenly said behind him.
"If we don't, we'll be destroyed in a greater burn. Sean's determined eyes made the other party feel a little weak.
"That ......"
Mu Dan was a little afraid to refute, because he didn't seem to be able to find a topic.
As for the ministers, although they wanted to oppose it, seeing Sean's serious and extremely positive expression, they also wanted to try it. Otherwise, you don't know when you will have the news.
"Do as Sean says. ”
The Sun King finally commanded.
Soon, Claude arranged the artillery on the towers of the highest peaks of the capital according to his own plan.
As for the court mages, almost all of them chose people above level 13, and almost one or two hundred of them stood in different positions and prepared......
As a signal rose outside the main hall of the Royal Palace.
First, the sound of artillery commensurate the whole city......
Many residents looked up.
It was so deafening that even those who were still worshipping stopped at this time.
This was followed by the court wizards unleashing fire magic into a central area at the same time.
Boom boom boom ~~
The dark night sky is as bright as day.
Sean clenched his fists, hoping that this method would be had.
The roar lasted for about a minute......
When the wizards finished the first round of magic and waited for the second round to be released, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared in the dark sky.
Without thunder, it is pure lightning.
And in the sky illuminated by lightning......
A colossal creature large enough to cover the entire capital appears in the shadows......
Roar~
Like a four-legged beast, it stands upright in the air, its whole body is like a turtle's back, and its huge belly is bulging like a spider.
Countless wriggling unknown tentacles on the body......
It even has a third pair of hands.
It's like a huge human nature, clasping his hands together and tearing open the gaps in the space.
Roar~
That's louder.
However, at this moment, a ray of light suddenly appeared in the sky.
There is a gap in the darkness, and the light will follow.
However, what appeared in the gap of light made the citizens of the entire capital feel creepy.
It was a head, or something that looked like a head.
The hair on the top of the head is a wriggling tentacle, and the entire face is flat.
There are countless large and small, dense eyes.
