Chapter 381: Avalanche and Earth Crack
The whole diocese of Beinz was so devastated that no one who came here could see it as it was: the earth was cracked everywhere, the wilderness was full of bottomless cracks and holes, the remains of huge tentacles covered the avenues and rocky beaches, eighty percent of the strongholds on the defensive line had been reduced to ruins, and watchtowers and watchtowers had either collapsed or been eroded into strange assemblages by the roots of huge plants, which was formidable to look at. Outside of these strongholds, the land is littered with the wreckage of twisted and terrifying dinosaurs, and the blood and poisonous gas have turned these places into forbidden areas for life.
And on the other side of this broken line, the whole forest is gradually rising!
There was a thunderous and furious roar in the twisted woodland, as if ten thousand abyssal beasts were rushing out of the open nightmare door of the earth, the sound of cracking rock formations and the collapse of the underground world even shattered the clouds in the sky, the sky of the entire Beinz parish began to be covered with trivial scaly clouds, the earth was shaking violently, the remaining buildings in the town creaked and creaked under the last bit of magical light, and stood high in the town and looked out in the direction of the twisted woodland, You can see that the middle part of the forest is rising rapidly, as if a mountain range was rising from the ground, which is as incredible and terrifying as it is to rise.
The maelstrom in the center of the Beinz Blood Lake paused for a moment, and then in an unprecedented loud noise, the entire Blood Lake level dropped sharply, and the crimson blood water set off the last monstrous waves, and then settled at a speed visible to the naked eye: the collapse of the underground world led to the entire rock formation at the bottom of the Blood Lake.
Countless huge tendrils burst forth from the descending lake, far more distorted than the ones that had plagued humanity outside for a day and night, frantically absorbing the waters of the lake of blood. If Hao Ren could see this, they would definitely understand what was going on: the Twisted Woodland was squeezing the last bit of energy from the "Blood Tide"!
In the midst of the shaking of the mountains, the giant wolves at the entrance of the town stood up. A roar of rage in the direction of the twisted woodland, but the warcry that would normally shatter the rocks only caused the forest to drop a few leaves. The lookout where Ophra was standing began to crumble. She and Hao Ren jumped to the ground quickly: "It's earlier than expected!" Evacuate! β
At the last moment, there was an accident: the awakening of the "eldest son" was a full twelve hours ahead of the calculation of the number jΓΉ terminal!
But no one cared about the miscalculation anymore, and the elite soldiers who finally pressed the formation regained order after a moment of panic, knowing that at such times they could only escape by following the order to retreat in an orderly manner. Led by their respective commanders, groups of knights rushed out of the town and along a pre-planned route towards the Dragonspine Mountains, while Ophra personally led a group of men and horses to break through with Hao Ren.
"Immediately inform the Dictor of Gelton! Give up this place! Ophra rode up and gave a loud order to an adjutant, and the fatigue of the continuous battle of the day and night seemed to be forcibly dispelled at this moment, and she did her best to show her usual strength.
However, the adjutant brought back only a group of ordinary bishops and assistant bishops: "Your Excellency, the rector is reluctant to retreat!" β
"What does he mean?" Ophora frowned.
The surrounding buildings are crumbling, and the ground is shaking more and more violently. But she was on a horse, and her whole person was as steady as a mountain, and this momentum also calmed down the adjutant who was in a nervous panic: "His Excellency the Rector wants to live and die with the church, and he has decided to be martyred. β
"Is this something that can be solved by martyrdom?" Hao Ren was anxious when he heard this, in the face of a monster like the "eldest son", the heroism of just one person is useless! However, just as he was about to rush into the church and drag the stubborn old man out, a pillar of light suddenly lit up in the direction of the church, which was even more magnificent than before, and then he saw that the entire church was wrapped in holy flames at that moment, turning into a translucent phantom building. The power of the magic radiance even shrugged off the tentacles that were surging outside the town. Seeing this situation, the bearded man grabbed Hao Ren: "I can't save it, the prefect has already fused with the Divine Array." β
The illusory building of the church gradually expands into a magnificent gate of light, which is the image of the "Gate of the Goddess" that countless followers of the Radiant Sect have painted with faith for thousands of years. In the Gate of Radiance, the figure of an old man in a white robe gradually emerged, old. Rickets, wrinkled face. The old man seemed to be summoned by the goddess at any moment, and his eyes were unfocused. Slightly raised his finger in the direction of the Dragonspine Mountains.
A ray of light burst out from the top of the Gate of Radiance, connecting to the gap in the middle of the Dragonspine Mountains in the direction of the Knights' retreat, and the tentacles and dinosaurs around the avenue burned to ashes in patches.
Hao Ren suddenly remembered what Gerton said before jumping down on the maelstrom of the Blood Lake: "I'm already very old......"
Ophra turned his horse's head and swung his sword: "Evacuate!" β
The last team rushed out of Leighton Town, and they were greeted by a violently surging wilderness that looked like a twisted purgatory!
The earth rippled like a softened gel, everything in sight was shaking, the rocks were collapsing, the walls were being destroyed, and the town of Leighton behind him was in ruins in the blink of an eye, leaving only the divine brilliance that had transcended the boundaries of matter to guide everyone's path. Countless huge tentacles continued to rush out from both sides of the avenue and even from the feet of everyone, and the black and oppressed hordes of dinosaurs poured out of the twisted woodland like a tide, but most of them were burned to ashes under the light of the divine light: this is the power accumulated by countless believers in the entire Beinz diocese for three thousand years, if not enough to fight against the body of the "eldest son", at least these things can be swept away!
"If it weren't for the severance of the outside world...... "Ofrah looked at the dinosaurs that had rushed out of the twisted woodland, "Three thousand years is at least enough time for us to destroy these dinosaurs!" It's a pity that the world has always thought that they are just ordinary mutant monsters...... No one knew that they were descendants of the third son. β
The giant wolves opened the way in front, the knights followed, Ovra and Hao Ren and their party pressed the formation at the end, the team advanced in a landslide and the ground cracked, and the knights and mages flying low in the sky were attacked by tentacles and fell behind, and the rest of the people could only do their best to abandon a qiΔ distraction, trying to ignore the loud noise in their ears, and desperately advance towards the Dragon's Back Mountains.
The brilliance of magic can't wipe out all the tentacles, and those who are extraordinarily powerful can always hold on to the light flame for a while longer.
Just as the team was about to reach the foot of the mountain, another thunderous roar suddenly came from the other side!
Elson, who was running at the front of the line, shouted, "Golem! Golem is coming! β
Countless Golems tumbled down the trail, even jumping straight off the nearest cliff, and were shattered to pieces when they landed, but in the blink of an eye they recovered and got up and continued on their way, far from being comparable in size to the stragglers they had seen before. Thinking that these stone monsters had no ability to distinguish between friend and foe at all, and would only frantically attack a qiΔ moving object within the sensing range, the remaining soldiers of the knights were suddenly enveloped in a wave of despair.
But in the end, the stone monsters ignored the humans, and without hesitation, they rushed towards the twisted woodland that was slowly turning into a huge "mountain"!
It seems that there is still some kind of identification mechanism in these stone monsters, which allows them to figure out where the most threatening enemy is.
Ovra breathed a sigh of relief, and her voice pierced the roar around her: "Keep going, don't look back!" β
When the team finally reached the Dragon's Back Mountain Pass, a narrow mountain path that Golem would not pass by, and only a few moments of progress on this path would break away from the roots of the twisted woodland, Vivien glanced back and quietly activated the magic circles she had left behind in the underground cavern.
The "core" organs of the twisted woodland seem to have a special function, and despite the uplift of the entire forest, they have not yet left the caverns that serve as heart vessels.
Bursts of red mist seemed to rise from the edge of the twisted woodland, and at this moment, Hao Ren and the others finally rushed into the depths of the mountain range.
A roar like rolling thunder came from behind him, almost causing the mountain rock to collapse, this time it was a real roar, Hao Ren could almost sense the unprecedented anger and hatred of some ancient creature from that "muffled thunder".
Suddenly, he suddenly remembered the vicious words he had heard from the giant brain before:
"You scum!" (To be continued......)
