Chapter 175: The Blood Cloud Retreats
The tide of battle in King's Harbor was reversed in an instant, and the followers of the True God Cult and the remnants of the snake demon demons in the city quickly turned into street rats shouted and beaten by everyone, and the previous arrogance and unstoppable brutality could no longer be seen.
Dehaka led a small group of insects and began to clear out the strongholds where cultists or demons gathered on a large scale according to the reconnaissance targets given by the Inspector King Worm, while Zagala led a large army and the elite of the Shining SHIELD LED BY MARCY to clear out the sub-sacrificial sites under the blood-colored pillar of light one by one.
These sub-sacrifices will become difficult to approach after activation, and once a unit below the legendary level enters within a hundred meters of that giant blood-colored pillar of light, it will immediately melt into a pool of blood.
But fortunately, the swarm has the help of the air force, and the Governor of Heavy Artillery's plasma cannon is not something that a fragile stone altar can handle.
Zagala led the ground forces to clear the remnants of the enemy guarding the altar and pinpoint the position of the altar, and then the small fleet that had been sent by Stokoff to assist them in the battle immediately fired a salvo and quickly knocked out the sub-altar.
After two successive operations, the sky over the entire Port of Kings suddenly brightened, and the huge blood-red dome like a pot lid finally began to slowly dissipate.
At the same time, the pillars of light of the other four sub-altars also dimmed rapidly, apparently because the number of altars was insufficient to support the huge amount of energy required for the ritual ceremony.
It was only at this moment that the crisis in King's Harbor was completely resolved, and by this time the sky outside the Blood Dome had already darkened, and the first day of this bountiful festival in King's Harbor had come to an end in great pain and sorrow
When the entire palace was completely reduced to ruins by Magda's original prototype self-explosion, Xue Hua also felt the end of the aftermath of the explosion, and he activated the ghost cell skill again, piercing out from under the ground not far from the palace.
Looking at the ruins of the huge palace that was still smoking in front of him and the chaotic royal area of King's Port around him, Xue Hua couldn't help but sigh softly.
Alas, if Wood VI had listened to Kane's advice, this matter would not have had to develop to such a point!
He shook his head helplessly, looking left and right to see if Jairo had escaped the explosion, but as soon as he turned his head, he found a very familiar-looking wooden staff in a flower bed not far from him, leaning against a small tree that had been scorched by the fire.
Xue Hua walked over and took the staff, carefully brushed off the dust on it, and found that this wooden staff was the one that Kane had been carrying with him before, it was not only Kane's spell-casting instrument, but also Kane's ceremonial staff and crutch, in short, since Xue Hua knew Kane, he had never seen him use other weapons other than this wooden staff.
Seeing that this staff was safe and sound, Xue Hua couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, at least Kane still left something tangible and qualitative for people to miss him.
He carefully wiped down the staff again, then carefully put the last relic of Kane into the inventory, ready to return it to the Council for them to dispose of.
This staff was not a professional equipment, but Xue Hua could clearly feel a condensed and vast power from it, and if he wanted to use this power, he obviously needed some kind of special method
Just as he put away Kane's staff and was about to check the current battle situation in the mind of the main nest, a familiar voice suddenly came from the sky.
"Mr. Xue!"
“?” Xue Hua was stunned for a moment, looked up, but saw Jairo taking Wood VI's arm and slowly landing towards him from mid-air
Wood VI looked a little distraught, and it was clear that the present scene at King's Harbor was painful and confused.
However, Jairo's face was very indifferent, and in his opinion, it was a fluke that King's Harbor could be preserved in a relatively complete manner under this catastrophe.
Moreover, this disaster has not brought all the harm, and I believe that the people of King's Harbor will be more aware of the fact that a kingdom with strong economic power is not enough after this catastrophe.
In this way, the reform of the kingdom system that His Majesty will carry out will be very smooth, and a new King's Port will soon be reborn from the ruins of the old order.
"It's good to see that you and His Majesty the King are safe and sound, but what about Mr. Anthony?"
Xue Hua nodded with relief, but he didn't see the figure of another legendary druid, so he couldn't help but ask a little strangely.
"Hey, when that guy exploded, His Majesty and I didn't have time to escape from the core area of the explosion, it was Anthony who desperately protected His Majesty, so we could get out of the explosion safely, but he himself"
Jairo shook his head in embarrassment, and glanced again in the direction of the Joshua family's manor not far away, with a deep sadness on his face.
Although the Joshua family can be said to be one of the main culprits in the devastation of King's Harbor, in the end, the entire Joshua family also paid a heavy price for it.
Anthony obviously couldn't accept the fact that he was the only survivor in the entire clan, so he chose to use his life to make one last amend for the sins he had created
But from then on, only the Frank family was left among the three aristocratic families of King's Port, and the Margery family's estate was also within one of the six red pillars of light that had erupted before.
"I see." Xue Hua nodded silently, and then looked at Wood VI, who was still looking at the messy streets and was speechless, and comforted: "Your Majesty, now that the crisis in the city has been basically resolved, although thanks to the True God Cult, the Shining SHIELD LEGION AND THE PEOPLE IN THE CITY HAVE SUFFERED HEAVY CASUALTIES, BUT AT LEAST THE FOUNDATION HAS NOT BEEN DAMAGED, AS LONG AS IT IS GOOD TO OPERATE AND DEVELOP, IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO REPEAT THE OLD VIEW SOON." ”
"Hey, all of this is the result of the selfishness of us damned politicians, if I could have listened more to Mr. Kane's opinion"
Wood VI's voice was full of self-reproach, he really regretted that he should not have taken Kane's advice as rumor, otherwise King's Harbor would not be like this at this moment.
Unfortunately, it was useless to regret it, and all he could do was to do his best to gather the hearts of the people, and immediately begin the restoration of King's Port.
While the three of them were talking, a dull thunderclap suddenly sounded from the dark sky, and a moist breath came from the direction of the Twin Seas.
Then, less than half a minute later, a torrential downpour fell from the sky, enveloping the entire southern cape of the Canduras region in a continuous curtain of rain.
The people of King's Harbour looked up at the sky, believing that the rain was a mourning for those who had died in the disaster, and the surviving families offered simple tributes to pay tribute to those who had recently died
