Act II: The Eye of Death Chapter 70: Darktide (Mystery Nest)
Icarus's strength was once again witnessed by everyone, and even several Psychic were looking at each other, because some of the methods used by Icarus were beyond the realm of Adepts, and they belonged to a realm that they could not understand.
Ressa shook his head, he opened the personal terminal, only a few seconds had passed, and the location of Icarus displayed on the personal terminal was already a few hundred meters away, faintly, Resa could hear that there was a rumbling sound coming from the direction of Icarus, the sound was not loud, but with the rumbling sound, there was a slight sense of vibration, thinking that it should be the vibration caused by the action of the sandworm.
Resa removed a thick armor plate from one side of the wall and blocked the dissolved human form of Icarus, he didn't know what the smell of the sandworms was, and if they smelled everyone, it would probably be a big trouble.
Lightly blocking the armor plate in the gap, Resa and the others fell into silence, they needed to wait, wait for the storm outside to calm down.
On the other hand, Icarus began to let himself go, no one else was present, he could finally use his ability without scruples, one by one sand worms passed under the sand, intermittently spraying sand pillars to attack Icarus, but these were like a child's tricks for Icarus, and the heavy sniper in his hand was not aimed, and between a few shots, the first sandworm was torn apart by his bullets.
"It's been too long since the name of the Pupil of Death has sounded on this continent, Ikaria, I've finally, done it, I've finally accompanied you to Philhaiz." A crystal energy began to spread around his body, and faintly, a translucent woman like a crystal could be seen appearing beside Icarus and flying with him.
The woman's eyes were closed, but a faint smile appeared on her face when she heard Icarus's words.
"Ikaria........." Icarus' voice trembled slightly, and his eyes as he looked at the woman showed deep love.
However, just as he turned his head......
............Dozens of sand pillars burst out around him, these sand pillars were not as single sand worms as before, and it was roughly estimated that there were nearly 100 sand worms around him.
"The remnants of the Tsar?"
Icarus's eyes suddenly emitted a strange dark green light, making him look hideous and terrifying, and the dark green light drifted away, and the rising sandworms began to dry up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It's been a long time since I added it, and I should really thank you. Hahaha! Be a part of my power! Icarus smiled wantonly, the corners of his mouth curled up with contempt, and a faint black mist emanated from his body, making him look weird.
Those shriveled sandworm corpses disintegrated in the air, turning into pieces of sand and falling downward, all of this was done in a very short period of time, if Ressa and the others were here, they would definitely drop their jaws, such combat power, even Ressa, I am afraid it would be easily wiped out.
Icarus ignored the faint black mist on his body, but the translucent woman beside him reacted to this, she gently let go of Icarus's hand and gently hugged him from behind, and with the woman's movements, the faint black mist began to dissipate.
With a happy smile on the woman's face, she turned to Icarus, took his palm and put it on her cheek, gently rubbing her cheek against his palm, as if coveting the temperature above.
Icarus's eyes suddenly moistened, and he tried to step forward and hug the woman, but unfortunately, the woman's body began to become more and more transparent, and finally turned into a pale green point of light and flew into the pendant on his chest.
At this time, the madness in Icarus's eyes had been replaced by love, and the girl's disappearance made him a little stunned, and he understood that Icaria's state at this time was not suitable for appearing in the present world.
However, with the Soul Eater, combined with the fragments of the Heart of Magical Energy, the time for Ikaria to fully awaken can be greatly advanced, right? Maybe it won't be long before Ikaria can be by her side!
Icarus looked at the marker on his terminal, and the coordinate point of light was already a little dim.
"Well! Just wait for them here! Icarus landed on top of a watchtower leaning into the sand, and looked deep into the main city, where a fate awaited him that needed to be settled.
On the other side, Resa and the others had already started to act according to the light point on the personal terminal.
Compared to the sea of sand, the mysterious nest in the underground is much quieter, but the roads that extend in all directions make everyone dizzy for a while, even with the general direction left by Icarus, everyone is almost lost in the twists and turns, not to mention that they also need to be on guard against the attack of sandworms at all times, yes, their travel speed is very slow, after all, the underground environment is much more complicated than the ground.
"It's a detour here!" Lis's face fell, and she felt that she had walked more in more than a day than she usually walked in a week.
"No way, you can't expect bugs to come as you wish. Besides, this situation is already very good now, at least after coming out for so long, we haven't encountered a single sandworm. Resa smiled bitterly, the road here is indeed too winding, and the distance traveled by the group is really limited.
"Okay!" Liz pouted, and it could be seen that she didn't like such a scene.
"Captain, there is a fork in the road ahead, how do we go?" Feige's voice came from the front.
Resa looked at the personal terminal, Icarus's signal should be far away, and sure enough, the speed of the direct flight and the detour are completely different.
"Let's go this way!" Ressa looked closely, pointing to one of the passages.
The passage in the underground was like a labyrinth, and after a while, the group returned to this place again, looking at the drawn arrows, and the group looked at each other.
"Looks like we have to try. Let's go this way this time! Ressa sighed, I don't know how many times she had been going around in circles. Fortunately, looking at the signal of the personal terminal, Icarus did not move forward, he should have seen that the signal was about to be disconnected, waiting for everyone.
On Icarus's side, as Resa thought, he was bored now, since the last time he killed more than a hundred sandworms infected by red sandworms at once, no matter how much he tossed, there were no sandworms to attack him, obviously these bugs are not completely unintelligent, at least they know that the person in front of them is not easy to mess with.
"Ressa, they're so slow." Icarus was lying on top of the sloping tower, looking at the central city with blazing eyes, and now he was desperate to get there, through the remnants of the chronicle that Resa gave him, plus the documents he had read in the node, he had basically understood what that encounter was going on, no wonder, the old guy would be a killer, Ikaria's state would be very abnormal, now it seems that she should have been chosen as a tribute, and herself, is a shackle between her and the tribute.
I don't know if I can show my full strength with my current body.
Icarus gently picked up the pendant on his chest and placed it in front of his eyes, the six-winged angel wings wrapped a small heart-shaped gem, and Icarus's eyes emitted a faint green light, which was slowly injected into the gem.
After doing all this, Icarus took out a gray-black crystal the size of a jelly bean from the storage compartment, which was the Soul Eater that Resa had given him.
If you can incorporate it into the Heart of Magic fragment, it should work well!
Icarus thought, he gently put the soul swallowing stone on the glowing green gem, weirdly, the soul swallowing stone was swallowed by the green gem, until the soul swallowing stone was completely integrated, the light of the heart-shaped gem gradually dimmed, compared to before, the heart-shaped gem was obviously larger, the original pale green seemed to be more pure.
"It worked." A smile appeared on the corner of Icarus's mouth, and in this way, with the nourishment of the Soul Eater, the day when Icaria would wake up was not far off.
Icarus smiled at the corners of his mouth, carefully placing the pendant back on his chest, and he looked at the signal on his personal terminal.
"Ressa's guys are so slow!"
With a yawn, he shrunk his neck and continued to lean against the wall of the tower and gaze into the center in the distance.
Compared to Icarus's boredom, Ressa's side finally began to have big troubles.
