Chapter 436—A Message Spanning 65 Million Years (Part I)
Hearing Little Bubble Gum's words, everyone raised their heads and looked at Little Bubble Gum's eyes. Sure enough, they saw a vague black shadow in the middle of the icicle. It was so far away that even Thomas couldn't see clearly with a telescope. However, this was naturally not a problem for Rhodes and the others, and soon, they saw clearly the figure frozen in it.
It was a young girl.
She folded her hands over her chest, closed her eyes, and looked as if she was falling asleep. A long pale blue supple hair fell out, enveloping the girl like wings. The luxurious and elegant black robe wrapped around the girl's body. If you look closely, you can also see a faint blue light flashing faintly and regularly, as if the heart is beating in front of the girl. And if you look closely, you can see a magic staff floating in front of the girl's body, but it is more of a magic wand than a magic staff. It didn't look like a regular staff, but instead it looked like it was only as long as a forearm, and it was pitch black and inconspicuous. Only Rhodes and the others could barely see it, but even so, they could still feel the powerful power that erupted from above.
"What a strong force."
At this moment, even Irene and Lydia were slightly pale, because they also keenly felt the powerful power fluctuations from that girl that were not weaker than them at all. Not only that, the moment they saw the girl, a sense of danger suddenly appeared in the hearts of the two people. It's as if it's not an ordinary girl there, but a monster with a bloody mouth that can swallow them with just one bite!
Who is she?!
"Your Majesty Rhodes, please be careful, this man's strength is very strong! Quite dangerous! ”
"I know."
Hearing Lydia's slightly hurried reminder, Rod nodded. At the same time, he glanced at Lydia and Irene, who looked solemn, and to be honest, their reaction was so radical that Rhodes did not expect. Although before this, Rhodes also knew from his sister that Maribel was very, very powerful. But in his opinion, no matter how strong Maribel is, it is basically similar to Lydia and Irene uniting. As a result, the two of them are so nervous now. It seems that a woman's intuition is really accurate. Although Lydia and Irene didn't know where Maribel's power was, they were obviously instinctively aware that the other party was not something they could match, which is why they were so careful. However, even though the true identity of the other party had been deduced, Rod still asked carefully in his heart.
"Is that her?"
"Yes............ Brother............... She was......... Marybell. ”
My sister's voice trembled a little, and it could be seen that her mood was also complicated, and Rhodes couldn't understand her feelings, Maribel had been away from the Void Dragon for at least sixty-five million years, and this time was not a long time, and that was one of her most important subordinates. Not to mention. The relationship between the Void Dragon and Maribel is far deeper than that of ordinary superiors and subordinates. She is the creator of the demon gods, their guardian, and their leader. Although Rod couldn't understand his sister's mood 100%, at that moment, the complex emotions revealed in the trembling voice still made him really feel it.
However, with emotion and emotion, Rod still looked at everything in front of him with a cautious gaze. Although it looked like the girl was frozen in ice, it was as if she was asleep. You can wake up anytime and anywhere. But it was hard for Rhodes to imagine that she would ever be resurrected again. That's 65 million years, not 650 years or 6,500 years. Of course. Rhodes is not without a similar existence to Maribel in his hands, that is, Kalian. As one of the subordinates who once followed the Void Dragon, Karen also hid in the rescue pod in the face of the catastrophe of the chaos invasion. It's just that I don't know if it's her bad luck or Rod's black hand aura played a role in the dark, and the rescue pod used to maintain it was damaged, and Kalian naturally died. In the end, Rhodes was able to reawaken her with his ability to summon swordsmen.
Another example is Alice, but Alice was already prepared. Separates the body from the soul. But Maribel is different, she's frozen here now, what exactly is the reason? No one knows. But Rhodes knew very well that it had to be for some rather bizarre reason, otherwise. Judging from the Earth's ecosphere during the Cretaceous period, even the dinosaurs of the entire Earth combined are not as good as Maribel's fingers. But the frozen battlefield before was very cruel, showing fierce battle scenes in front of Rhodes. It shows that Marybell and the others not only fought at that time, but were also beaten very badly, and they were all beaten to the central square!
So either the earth at that time and the existence of the same plane in Rhodes's mind were not at all, or something happened to make it what it is now. And now it seems that Rhodes prefers the latter, because if it were the former, it would be too unscientific -- although it is already very unscientific in itself, but sometimes, after all, we still have to take care of the power of science, don't we?
Thinking of this, Rhodes also restrained his mind, and then walked up the steps of the pyramid in front of him.
"Whew............!!"
However, at the same time as Rhodes and the others walked up the steps of the pyramid, suddenly, a powerful force appeared out of thin air, turning into a violent hurricane, and the cold wind pressed on Rhodes and the others like an invisible hand, forcing them to retreat.
What's going on?
Rod frowned and looked to the sides, while Irene and Lydia were also slightly gloomy. They clenched the swords in their hands, and watched vigilantly ahead, for fear that something would suddenly rush out to trouble them. But the gust of wind only stopped them from advancing, and when they left the pyramid, they disappeared completely.
"One more time."
As he spoke, Rhodes gestured to Irene and Lydia, and then a dazzling soul light erupted from his body. The dazzling aura completely covered Rod's body, and at the same time, the bodies of Irene and Lydia also appeared with silver and golden brilliance respectively, and then the three of them flickered like this. With three rays of light and shadow, it flew up like a meteor.
"Whew............!!"
And at the moment when the three of them entered the pyramid, a violent hurricane broke out again. It swirls around the perimeter of the pyramid, like a loyal gatekeeper keeping everything out. But in the face of a hurricane of this magnitude, the Rhodes trio obviously didn't care. They glanced at each other, and then the sword light in their hands flashed, and they saw that the explosive sword blade air flow had just split the hurricane that had enveloped the entire pyramid!!
And just one step further. They can pass through the barrier.
But...............
"Woooooooo..................oo
At the moment when the hurricane barrier was split, I saw an even more powerful tide suddenly erupt in front of everyone. Rod and the others only felt the air around them squeeze and deform in an instant, and then they felt their bodies fly backwards as if they had been hit by an invisible giant hammer. Fortunately, the three of them were experienced and calm and composed, and hurriedly turned over to remove the powerful force and stood firmly on the ground again. Only this time the three of them looked at each other again, and they all saw the horror in each other's eyes!!
Even if you don't talk about Rod, the power of Irene and Lydia is definitely not something that the wind element can fight. It can even be said that even if the Wind Elemental Lord came in person, Irene and Lydia would not fight back and stand there and let it fight. Being able to cut off one of their hair is considered to be the Wind Elemental Lord's ability. But just now, that blow almost hurt them!
That's not to say that the Moon Princess and the Archangel were so squeamish that they couldn't stand even a little injury. There are so few people who can hurt them. Not to mention that Irene, Lydia and Rhodes were all in the way just now. In the outside world, the blow of the three of them was enough to tear through three bottomless abysses that ran through the entire city in an international metropolis. But here, their blow finally made a gap, and they were almost injured by the opponent's counterattack?
"Looks like we're going to have to figure out something else."
Compared to Irene and Lydia's doubts, Rhodes seemed much calmer. After all, he had learned about Maribel's abilities from his own sister. Since the other party was able to create an ice crystal that even Lydia couldn't hurt in the slightest, it wasn't uncommon to create a barrier that wouldn't allow anyone to pass through. Marybell's ability is so rebellious. What can he do?
"Is there any way?"
After waving his hand and signaling everyone to wait for a while, Rod frowned and asked in a low voice deep in his heart. Hearing Rod's inquiry, my sister also hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
"I don't know. Brother. If Maribel really wants to reject anyone, then I'm afraid there's really nothing we can do here. But I don't think it's completely out of the ordinary, because Maribel is a very cautious person, and she takes care to arrange everything before she does anything. Definitely not betting anything on a possibility. So I don't think it's very likely that she will make this decision to 'refuse all contact', so ........." Speaking of this, the younger sister paused slightly, and then continued with some embarrassment: "Therefore, brother, you can try to communicate with your soul power, because you and I are fused, your soul power is now with the breath of the Void Dragon, I think if there is no problem, then Maribel should be able to sense your breath, so ............ It's not like we're out of the woods. ”
“…………………”
Hearing his sister's answer, Rod thought for a moment, but in fact, he really couldn't do better. After all, Maribel's strength has been seen by Rhodes before. A few of them fought the crystal spider on the ice for 300 rounds, but those ice layers did not even have a single scar, which can be seen. Unless Rhodes returns to the Dragon Soul Continent to get back the Dragon Soul Essence, it is estimated that there will be no good end for choosing to go toe-to-toe with Maribel here. Not only that, but Rhodes was actually very worried about what would happen if he contacted this girl without permission, after all, it seemed that the reason why she chose to freeze here was probably related to those monsters. If you accidentally alarm her......... Then only God knows what will happen.
Thinking of this, Rod reached out and pressed forward. Sure enough, with his movements. The same violent hurricane resurfaced, blocking his path. However, this time Rhodes did not break through, on the contrary, his body once again exuded a dazzling soul brilliance, and then the soul brilliance condensed in his hands to form an illusory dragon-shaped symbol -- that was the symbol of the Void Dragon.
"Whoosh--!!"
And at the same time as this sign was condensed, I saw the area around the pyramid where the hurricane was originally roaring. Suddenly, a thick white mist filled the air, and this thick fog enveloped the entire pyramid and the crystal pillars on it. For a moment, there was only a cloud of fog in front of everyone's eyes. This sudden change also made the others immediately alarmed, and they raised the mist in their hands and looked uneasily ahead, for fear that something would come out there. But what everyone didn't expect was that almost at the same time, an opening suddenly opened in the thick fog over there, and then a slight sound of breaking the air was heard, and Rhodes was actually sucked into it. Immediately after that, the entire fog barrier merged again, enveloping the entire pyramid again.
This scene surprised everyone, with Lydia and Irene being the quickest to react, and Canary and Little Bubblegum not being slow to respond. Almost as soon as Rod's figure disappeared, the long swords in the hands of Lydia and Irene stabbed out with all their might, and the canary also raised his hand violently, and the raging fire turned into a ball of fiery snakes and roared into the thick fog. Even the little bubble gum was blasted down with a punch, and the dazzling brilliance in his hand couldn't stop flickering and blasting into the fog in front of him.
But none of their attacks worked. Even if the four of them had completely attacked with all their might, they disappeared into the fog without even a splash. And when Lydia wanted to rush up again. The hurricane pushed her back again, and there was no sign of accommodation at all, and it was clear that there was no way out.
And just as Ireen was about to try again, the canary suddenly stepped forward and blocked her way.
"No need. Your Highness Irene, Rhodes has contacted us just now, and he is not in any danger. I guess we'll have to wait here for a while. ”
"Okay."
Hearing the canary's words, Irene didn't think it was strange. So she nodded, then put away her sword and walked to the side to close her eyes. I didn't notice that at this moment, another canary was looking at the scene in front of him with a complicated expression.
For the canary "Body", she is actually not as adventurous as little bubblegum, and to be honest, the heavy blow of losing her child has put her into an unprecedented low. When she lost her child, she also seemed to have lost her courage. In fact, the canary didn't plan to leave with little bubblegum, especially after seeing his own projection. She felt that she had no need to follow Rhodes anymore. Although it was only a projection, in Canary's opinion, he had very successfully left the most perfect side of himself in Rod's memory, and that was enough. She wasn't expecting any adventures, nor was she as competitive as Bubbles, she felt that the projection would be a better place for herself to be by Rhodes' side. Then, there is no need to do anything for yourself, you just need to leave here, go far away to find a place that no one knows, live your life alone, and then it is enough until you are old.
But just now, after hearing the projection's words, a little unwillingness suddenly appeared in the heart of the canary. Because when Rod suddenly disappeared, she was also very worried in her heart. But she didn't have that kind of power, and she couldn't communicate with Rod. And now, obviously they are all here, why don't they have this ability? For the first time, the canary began to think about an answer she had always thought had been decided: was she really going to get out of here?
But at the moment, Rod didn't know what the canary was thinking, because he was walking through the thick mist.
Before, his sister had been saying that Maribel was a cautious person, but it was only now that Rhodes realized how cautious she was. Rhodes could even feel that the powerful wind pressure was hovering beyond the dense fog, only parting under the light of the Void Dragon Mark in his hand, and then quickly closing. It was as if he was watching and observing himself. Although Rhodes has also been in contact with several demon gods, he has to admit that this existing demon god is indeed cautious. But it's no wonder, if you think about Maribel's ability carefully, if she was a Madahar, then I'm afraid the entire Dragon Soul Continent would have been in chaos a long time ago. Without precise thoughts, it is absolutely impossible to determine what should exist and what should not exist.
But Rod wasn't worried, he just strolled forward, he knew that since the other party had attracted him, he must have been prepared in all directions. Sure enough, not long after, the fog in front of Rhodes suddenly began to roll and retreat, and then a fairly wide space was formed, and then, an illusory figure walked out of it.
She is none other than the demon god of existence, Maribel. (To be continued......)
