The evil spirits of the reset number gathered in one place, and the negative energy that was intertwined and emanated flowed violently in the sky and the earth, causing wind, rain and cold, and changing the entire environment.

With Pushu Town as the center, the surface of the land in a radius of dozens of miles is covered by a circle of black thick fog, forming a huge hollow cloud mountain around the mountain range, the bottom of which is directly attached to the surface, but the top is straight into the stratosphere. The whole town seemed to be wrapped in a shroud, and the rain clouds swirled around it, with only a faint light shining from behind the thick clouds.

The Temple of Atum is located on the edge of the town on high ground near the mountains, and is the first part to be eroded by the black mist. After the black smoke rolled away, the temple, which was completely made of rocks, was completely weathered and decayed, and the originally sacred and solemn temple became a cold and empty ruin in the blink of an eye.

“......”

Tuze stood on the winding mountain road, looked back at the top of the mountain, and watched the black fog flood the temple like a mudslide, covering the sky and the sun, his facial features were twisted and extremely hideous for a moment, and his mouth was a scream that was close to breaking the sound:

"Run!"

His voice was like some kind of switch, reactivating the brains of the priests, and everyone let out a cry of terror, ripped off the hem of their robes, and ran wildly down the hill.

"Run, run!"

"Help, ahhh

"Go to the center of town, there's our army there!"

Before the catastrophe was imminent, the priests' desire to survive overpowered, and they took off their masks of calm and indifference, revealing their truest side, crying and shouting and running to the densely lit town center, as if it was the Pure Land of Bliss that they longed for on weekdays.

Rumble——!

Suddenly, there was a dull sound in the dark abyss that spread down from the top of the mountain, and the earth seemed to be forcibly torn apart by a force, and the cracks spread in a staggered manner, crumbling in all directions like cracks in the ice......

The cracks in the ground cracked quickly, like a long, narrow black centipede, swaying along the hillside, where trees staggered and broken, and earth and gravel burst in all directions.

"Demons, demons are chasing us!"

"Cracks! It's the earth that cracks!"

"Don't look back, look straight ahead, don't stop!"

On the shaking hillside, the priests screamed and sped up to speed, their bodies being stretched to their limits, and everyone's gallop was close to that of chocobos—and the cracks zigzagged and spread right behind them.

"Whew, whew!"

Tuze Sacrifice plucked up his courage and kept running at a wild speed and glanced back, and his almost collapsed spirit was suddenly shocked.

He noticed that the cracks were spreading rapidly, but they were still some distance away, and they were slowing down as the slabs of the ground near the foot of the mountain hardened.

"No problem, just keep up the pace and run to the center of town, and the Inquisitor will be able to solve the problem...... It must be possible!" With a hint of luck for the rest of his life, he kept telling himself this in his heart.

However, the methods of evil things are not limited to the physical level.

The priests are about to face an even more dangerous test!

Hideous shadows surged in the depths of the black mist, the boundaries of the world began to dissolve, and the blood-colored eyes flashed with fluorescence. In the roar of the cracked earth, bursts of deplorable sounds gradually oozed, like a woman singing softly and tactfully. It seems to be a siren who wanders in the depths of the ocean to confuse sailors, and his singing voice is like nothing, but with an inexplicable strong allure, it continues to drill into everyone's ears like a silk thread.

"Who...... Who's calling me!?"

A priest running at the end of the line couldn't resist the temptation, and subconsciously turned his head, his eyes instantly turning from dark brown to bright red like jewels. As if he had forgotten everything he had experienced before, a silly smile appeared on his face, and he slowly stopped, turned behind him in a sluggish movement like a marionette, and trotted towards the spreading black mist.

"What did you say!?"

When the priest in front of him heard the voice, he looked back worriedly, and met a pair of dark red eyes in the black mist, and his eyes immediately became red and shiny, and he turned around stupidly, and followed in the footsteps of the former......

At the front of the group, the temptation felt by Tuze was just as strong, a dizzy psychedelic sensation constantly hitting his mind, and his neck seemed to be entangled in invisible silk threads, and he twisted himself to look back.

"It's the song of the devil! can't turn back!" he yelled as hard as he could.

"Can't turn back!"

"Can't turn back!"

It was as if the priests were drawing strength from the words, and one by one, they passed on his words.

However, even so, people continued to break away from the group, their eyes turning bright red like jewels, and they stupidly turned and ran towards the black mist, and then they were eaten by the evil things that lurked in the depths of the mist.

......

The wind swirled in the surrounding sea of clouds, making a swift and strange noise, and the black mist rolling from the top of the mountain formed a shocking scene like a moving desert, setting off the cold 'night' - as if it were a grotesque and bizarre dream.

Ivan took the lead, galloping through the mountains and forests like a phantom, and the afterimages flickered along the mountain road in a line.

"Oh no!

After seeing the black mist pouring down from the top of the mountain, his pupils locked into thin lines, and he gritted his teeth violently, running the Holy Book of Hades with all his might, and his bones and muscles suddenly gurgled, like a sports car that accelerated to the limit and was still overloaded.

In the darkness, the muscles of Ivan swelled, the muscles and ligaments stretched and lengthened, and the skin revealed the tough texture of the alloy plate, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a giant form more than two meters tall. Neck, back, arms, thighs...... All over the body, including the face, there are clear metal pits on all skin.

Streams of silvery light flowed rapidly along the lines of the metal pits, converging into the spiral hollow in the heart of the chest. It seems to be a sophisticated machine, with intricate lines, distributed throughout Ivan's body. The flame nucleus was like a powerful heart, bubbling and beating, and the flowing silver flashes of light throughout the body continued to circulate through it.

"Ahh

He let out a roar of rage, and the sound wave instantly shattered the surrounding leaves, like a war horn ringing through the sky.

Bang——!

During the gallop, Ivan lowered his upper body suddenly, leaned forward and leaned against the ground, stomped on the ground with his legs, and the ground touched by the soles of his feet suddenly exploded in circles, forming a circular hole with a diameter of ten meters.

Whoosh——!

His burly and thick body suddenly flew out, accelerating to the point of disappearing into shape, like a black meteor with silver flashing, rushing the air flow in its path out of the ripple-like folds, and slamming into the overwhelming black mist from the bottom up.
