Act XXVII: The Catastrophe I

At this moment, all the people on the Atlas continent had a throbbing in their hearts.

Grantia hurriedly opened the curtains and looked out the window.

I saw that the light of the originally dazzling sun immediately dimmed, as if there had been a solar eclipse, and the passage of the people of chaos did not expand, but the darkness seemed deeper and deeper.

Grandia saw the shadow of the moon in the sky, the three moons were long gone, leaving only a large bleak shadow, and more conspicuous were the countless crimson trails falling from the sky.

The meteorite fragments emitted high heat and fell towards the earth.

In a trance, Grandia thought that she had seen the end of the god generation, the era when the gods withered, and the stars falling from the sky were one god after another.

"Oops......"

Grantia could clearly see that several meteorites were coming in the direction of the school.

"Isn't it......"

She didn't even bother to change her clothes, so she hurriedly ran out of the room, and used her mobile terminal to contact her colleagues in charge of school security.

"Hey, I'm Grantia, have you seen those meteorites, open the school's defenses, or I'm afraid we'll have to rebuild the school." ”

Grandia yelled, and it wasn't long before she saw the lights of several towers on the edge of the school, and a pale blue barrier gradually lit up, illuminating the dim sky.

Almost as soon as the barrier was properly arranged, a whistling was heard, and the meteorite hit the sky head-on at Christine Royal Academy.

Bang –

These meteorite fragments from the moon thousands of miles away are not ordinary rocks, but the corpses of gods that have been weathered over many years and become crystallized, with high hardness and strong resistance to magic.

The first meteorite landed on the barrier, and all the kinetic energy brought by its own high speed poured onto the barrier, and it disintegrated because it could not withstand the huge force, and scattered into smaller fragments.

Then, second, third, more meteorites fell, bursting into clusters of fireworks on the pale blue barrier.

Grantia saw that several other meteorites did not hit the barrier of the Academy, but fell into the nearby mountains, and with a flash of light, she saw a shockwave sweep across the mountains, causing a burst of flying sand and rocks.

If you look down from the sky, you can see that the originally flat earth has now had many large pits, and the center of the pit is burning with blazing flames.

And on the outside of the barrier of Christine Royal Academy, the high temperature has already surrounded the entire academy, and it is like the core of the fire elemental realm, burning with unquenchable flames, which are inaccessible.

Grantia had arrived at the council hall, where the teachers, including the principal, had gathered.

"Even if the flames don't spread to the surface, the air consumption is too great, and it won't be long before we suffocate to death. ”

The heat would be blocked by the magic barrier, but the flames consumed a lot of oxygen, which would make the air in the house thin and even if the teachers were able to hold on, the students would not be able to survive in this harsh environment.

Since the meteorite from the moon already has a certain level of disrupting magic effect, it is difficult for the academy's teleportation circle to be effectively activated for a while, and I don't know what accidents will happen during the teleportation.

And even if the interference can be eliminated, the teleportation circle will not be able to send all the hundreds of students out in a short period of time, which can only be a drop in the bucket for the current situation.

"The flames outside are not ordinary flames, but magical flames with magical power, which disrupt the flow of the elements, and it will be quite difficult to cast spells. ”

"Are you just sitting here and waiting to die, at least get the students together first. ”

"How about the contact of the Rainbow Tower, there should be at least a few mid-level mages sent over there to save the scene. ”

"I watched the live broadcast, this time it's not so simple as a small disaster, the three moons have been annihilated, and the meteorites that fell to the mainland are by no means the only one, and the Rainbow Tower itself may not have time to take care of anything else. ”

"I've contacted the Rainbow Tower, but since the entire continent has been attacked by meteorites, they are severely understaffed and don't know when they will be able to get here. ”

"What should I do, Headmaster?"

Everyone looked at Principal Trastan, the old headmaster, who had a solemn face and a plan in his heart.

"Headmaster, I have a proposal. ”

It was then that Grandia spoke, causing everyone to turn to the young teacher again.

"We can move all the students to that place. ”

She meant something and didn't say it explicitly, but Principal Trastein immediately understood what Grantia meant.

She was referring to the Sage Ruins located deep beneath the Christian Royal Academy, which had been used as a preparation room for finalists in magic competitions, but had been transformed into a sanctuary four years ago for fear of the invasion of the Chaos People.

There are very few people who know this place, except for the headmaster and the vice principal, who are the participants in the previous magic competitions, and Grandia is the winner of that year.

"It can hold all the students, and it's so sturdy that we can wait until the flames go away. ”

Grantia said, baffling some unsuspecting teachers.

"But ......"

Principal Trastan hesitated, the Sage Ruins have special laws, as long as you leave from there, then you can't mention the relevant location, it is very good as a shelter, but if you enter too many people at once, then the secrecy of the place will disappear, and when the Chaos people invade in the future, it may not be able to play its due role.

"There's no time to hesitate, Headmaster Trastan, if we can't survive this catastrophe, how can we survive the clutches of the people of Chaos?"

Grantia's words were very certain, rather than waiting for help that did not know when it would come, it was better to save herself first, as someone had said to her.

"Okay, make an announcement and let the students gather here. ”

Principal Trestan was finally moved, and he nodded and sighed.

Grantia glanced at him helplessly, but she quickly turned her gaze beyond the hall, outside the flaming barrier of magic.

Countless meteors were still falling, heading towards all corners of the Atlas continent, and the three moons that had turned into star chips in the background were dim and deadly.

"Alyssa, I hope you're okay too......"

Thinking of her friend, Grantia prayed secretly.
