The wind was howling, the rain with magic was continuous, and the shallow sea desert that was originally dry turned into an ocean at this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The gravel was eroded into loose rocks by the rain, and the rising tides rippled, but the monsters in the shallow sea looked elated.

Countless sand worms weave through the rocks, swaying through the raging waves, biting and devouring fallen men and horses, and Golem stands above the water, crushing scattered caravans with a single punch.

Some of the more fortunate caravans climbed the towering rocks, but a slow death awaited them.

And in this plague-stricken desert, only a giant beast is slowly moving in the shallow sea.

The city buildings on Isthal's back no longer have lost their original majestic appearance, and under the corrosion of the magic rain, it has become a ruined wall, and the rock scales on Istar have lost their bright appearance, melting into a mass and ugly.

But the city remained undestroyed.

The Rainbow Tower and the Templar had long since responded to the storm, and Isttar's own materials and nearby magic were enough to sustain it through the storm for a week, but only when Ishtar was soaring through the sky.

Now, the landed Istar has to deal with not only the attacks of the rainstorm with the magic of chaos, but also the attacks of monsters on the ground.

The Golems were already moving towards the obvious target, their eyes glowing red and standing out in the dim world, and swarms of sand worms swam towards Isttar, their sharp teeth like drills that could gradually wear away the outer walls of Istar and allow rain to seep in.

Inside Isttal, the crowd had already begun to evacuate, and they were forced to leave the house where they had lived for many years, and gather together with valuable belongings, where the Iron Wolf Guards would maintain law and order.

Although the interior of Ishtar is a broken half-plane, and it is not completely impossible to get out of the current danger, only need to directly cut off the connection between here and the Ishar Behemoth, but Jerome knows very well that this method cannot be used unless absolutely necessary.

Not to mention whether cutting the connection without a professional mage will cause the entire half-plane to be displaced from the endless void, just separating this half-plane from Ishtar is enough to destroy the entire city by more than seventy percent, and the people who are taking refuge now may not be able to survive much.

Therefore, this method will not be taken into account until the last moment.

And just when people were looking at the lightning and thunder in the sky with anxiety, in the underground of Istal, Lawson and the others were quickly shuttling through the tunnel.

As Davos said, the roads here are indeed winding and repetitive, and even with a map, you can't always find the right way, and it's easy to get lost.

But Davos was not at all confused by the intricacies of the road, and knew which side to take at every fork in the road, and although Rosen and Tia used their senses to constantly explore the place and roughly grasped a certain structure, they were still too slow compared to Davos.

The three of them walked through the complex underground labyrinth, which was completely beyond Rosen's expectations, and according to Davos, this was the road connecting Ishtar to the outer periphery of the capital of sin, so it was likely that they were no longer inside Ishtar, but were shuttling between the indescribable void passages.

According to Davos, these places are inhabited by void creatures that have infiltrated through the rifts of the Endless Void, which are extremely dangerous, but these creatures do not move as much as possible in order to reduce consumption, so as long as they don't provoke them, there is no danger.

"It's here. ”

As Davos said, in a quarter of an hour, they saw the end.

The dim path revealed a light, and as Rosen stepped out of the passage, he finally saw the fabled capital of sin.

Even after being destroyed and abandoned for another 700 years, the city shrouded in red magic can still give a glimpse of its grandeur.

The first thing I saw was the towering city wall, the mottled broken wall left the mark of time, the original lacquer decoration has long been weathered, revealing the original dark yellow of the bricks and stones, you can vaguely see the exotic spires behind the city wall, under a dilapidated scene, Rosen and others know that there is an immeasurable crisis lurking.

What is even more noteworthy is that the originally raging storm stopped abruptly near the capital of sinful karma, as if it was cut off by an invisible barrier, and there were only a few clouds over the entire city, and the most terrifying thing was the sun hanging above the capital of sinful karma.

It was a black sun.

The sun, which did not reveal a single light, was pitch black, like a black hole, as if it could swallow everything around it, and from the sun oozed a little black fluid, which was so thick that it condensed into a physical power, and the whole city exuded an ominous aura, making all living beings instinctively want to escape.

"This red barrier of magic seems to be the seal set by the Rainbow Tower and the Sanctuary. ”

Tia understood the nature of the red barrier at a glance.

"This black sun must be the product of the advent ritual at that time. ”

Rosen looked back at the passage they had walked out of, a stone door that stood above the desert, a dark and deep passage from one side and a simple stone wall from the other.

The top of the door is carved with some ancient script, but it has long been blurred by the wind and sand, and there are several such doors around, some of which are broken and some are well preserved, and it seems that this was once a convenient passage to Ishbar, and the back of these doors may have been connected to other commercial cities.

As you can imagine how glorious the city was back then, and now Ishtar boasts of being the city of gold and wine, and Ishbal is worthy of its reputation as the capital of commerce.

It's a pity that everything was wiped out because of the disaster 700 years ago, and only these dilapidated buildings remain, which can vaguely remind people of the glory of the past.

The wind had become rather faint here, and the whole city seemed to be in a stagnant barrier, and Lawson saw a few footprints on the desert that seemed to have been concealed, which should have been left by the members of the Hot Wind Mercenary Regiment.

They probably dealt with it casually, but they didn't expect that anyone else would know about this secret passage, so they were caught by Lawson.

"So how can we pass through this barrier and enter the capital of sin?"

Rosen asked, they were now in front of the red magic barrier, he casually threw a stone dug from the wall, only to hear a "pop", the stone was broken into the most basic elements and escaped into the air the moment it hit the barrier, to Rosen's slight surprise.

"Tsk, this magic is terrifying. ”

"Of course, you can't do it in the normal way, but as long as you get the hang of it, it's not a hindrance. ”

Davos said, gesturing to the side.

There's a sleeping beast there.
