Chapter 558: Rain
With a roar, a loud bang, the earth shook and dust flew up.
"Phew!"
In the disgusting twilight sunset, Augustine hid behind cover, bent down and spat out the dust in his mouth, and looked up at his companion carrying the huge communication equipment: "Aren't you alright?"
In the roar, the scholar in charge of communications lay on the ground, put his ear to the horn, and after a long time, he raised his head and shouted: "The chief of affairs said that it was almost time." β
"How fast is it!!Fooling you, you believe it!" August's eyes widened, "I suspect he's been Parkinson's since I was eight years old, and he likes to fool people!"
"He said he was already on his way!"
"That's at least a fucking hourβ"
August gasped twice, wiped the sweat from his face, raised his head and said, "Can the undead come into play?"
"The Faceless One needs another quarter of an hour to recuperate. β
"Then I'll rush first!"
The elder raised his hand, and the snake people resting behind the bunker silently drew their scimitars, turned over and climbed onto the giant war lizard.
Some of them were still wearing bandages, and some had broken eyes and arms. As if they didn't feel any pain, under the orders of the elder, the snake army ran like a machine.
Just after the makeshift war fortifications, the awe-inspiring killing intent had spread.
When the Colonel's fire from the Colonel had halted for a moment, August had seized the opportunity, roared, rolled over the bunker, and the awe-inspiring frost spread from under his feet, freezing a layer of ice on top of the loess and broken stone slabs.
As he ran forward, he grew larger.
A layer of sharp ice and iron armor had already spread from his burly shell, two long sinuous horns had spread out from the armor, and in his hand, the originally ordinary walking stick was also quickly covered with a layer of frost, and a sharp blade grew.
Taking the lead in attracting the vast majority of firepower, he pounced on the center of the battlefield where the fire was most ferocious, as if he had killed himself.
But then, the body flickered out of thin air.
Unexpectedly, it swept past the staggered firepower, crossed a distance of hundreds of meters, and appeared in the colonel's legion, and swept across the sword blade with a strange style.
In the rain of blood, several of the soldiers at the front were the first to be beheaded.
The frost giants of the third order of the Dusk Path combined with the Traveler's Staff, which can make people jump in space, caused huge casualties in a single shot.
But after the riot, Auguste did not dare to stay long, and after throwing behind a wave of spreading cold with all his might, he withdrew and reappeared in the distance.
The essentia is depleted and nearly collapsed.
Behind him, the Icecrown Star left behind by the Frost Giant slowly spread, and even the air was completely frozen in its pass. But the terrible cold quickly dissipated under the high temperature.
Hundreds of salamandas rose into the sky.
After extracting a large amount of fuel for temporary reinforcement, the flames of this group of Shalamanda were twice the size of ordinary people, and the figures among them had faintly condensed into entities, leaving burning flames in their wake.
The Ivy League spared no expense, and all the four Sharamanda settlements attached to the Nightmare Eye had already been hired, and now there were only two settlements on the field.
As the main force of the attack, they have caused great damage to the Ivory Tower from the beginning to the present, and many of the outer defenses have been breached under their onslaught.
After catalyzing with a large amount of fuel and xenoflames, all of the salamandas have entered a rare period of incineration, and even the more they are present, the more alarming the temperature of the incineration.
Now, two settlements of Salamaanda have turned the entire battlefield into a furnace.
The long-planned counterattack charge of the snake undead army was also in vain before they could defend to the death, and the gargoyles who rose into the air only had time to detect the situation, and before they could disrupt it in the rear, they had to be forced to retreat back to the ruined temple where the sub-control center was located.
Even if a person with a good temper is pressed and beaten for two hours, he will start to get angry.
Especially as time slowly passes, and soon it will be night.
If you can walk away with the sub-control center, it will definitely not make the situation so troublesome, but the problem is...... With their current capabilities, they simply can't move.
Don't talk about them, they can't move when the Iron Crystal Seat comes.
Because the sub-control center is the dilapidated temple itself, which looks like a temple.
Including the pedestal wall and the altar, everything is an extension of the sub-control center!
All the way down to the foundation of tens of meters underground!
This led to August, even if they occupied the sub-control center first, they still couldn't gain any advantage, but fell into passivity.
Have you already eaten the meat in your mouth and then spit it out?
That's too embarrassing.
August leaned against the bunker at the door, raised his hand, and let the others help him bandage, "Urge the Iron Crystal Seat, isn't it okay over there?!"
Although he knew in his heart that even if he was already preparing, he would not be able to get better so quickly, but he always had to make sure that the old bastard who contacted the chief of affairs would not release his own pigeons.
He's been delaying long enough.
I just hope that the other side will not be aware of the abnormal reaction of the Ivory Tower.
.
.
"It doesn't feel right. β
In the makeshift fortress, the colonel put down the telescope in his hand and frowned: "The Ivory Tower's reaction is also a little too slow, too simple. β
"Isn't that bad?" asked the 'old man' Pan Delong, "I don't see anything, is there anything wrong?"
"No, it's just weird, it's too negative. β
The colonel frowned, looked at the image on the surveillance screen, and his expression became more and more serious: "Although I don't know what moths they are doing, I think ...... They're probably stalling for time?"
"Are you sure?"
"It's hard to say. The colonel shook his head: "Just a guess." β
"Then it's a quick fix. β
Pan Delong took the lead in making a decision: "Since the other party is passively responding, then we don't have to wait for the night time, and now we can win it in one go, and we will save a lot of dreams at night." β
After a moment of silence, the old man, who didn't know anything about war, made a decision: "Didn't Synth No. 7 be sent to the front line?
The colonel was stunned.
"Are you sure? Isn't that thing unbugged yet?"
"Always try. β
Pan Delong said: "If you always have scruples, you won't be able to show your skills after all." Besides, if we don't use it, won't the Ivory Tower be on our guard? β
The colonel gave the long-time partner and boss a deep look, bowed his head, said nothing, and turned away.
It didn't take long for the observers to see behind the Ivy defensive positions that the massive airship had risen again, clinging to the ground...... But then, under the jaw-dropping gaze of everyone, the huge building-like airbag above the empty courtyard slowly opened.
Countless concentric circles are revealed, nested in one place.
With the rotation of the frame, a howling hurricane set off out of thin air and roared from the roar. It was as if a rift had been ripped open in the entire space.
An elongated leg protrudes from it......
"Giant Synth !!"
August put down his binoculars and turned pale: "Our Dome Giants haven't been seen yet! Can those bastards breed war behemoths so quickly? Can you tell what models?"
"It's not an adult, it's just a juvenile!"
The observer's eyes widened: "The Annihilator Heavy Armor is probably specialized in mobility, but it is still in the range of our coping ......"
Before the words could be spoken, another roar erupted from above the sky.
They were stunned.
When I looked up, I saw a layer of dark clouds sweeping in from afar, covering the entire canopyβthe dusk time, which was supposed to last for three hours, ended early.
Instead, there were layers of black clouds that didn't want to be thundered.
In the sudden cold wind, the scholar who was squatting next to the communication station raised his head and shouted to August in ecstasy:
"βThe storm is coming!"
Yes, the rainstorm is coming.
In addition, there is another meaning in the cipher code of the iron crystal seat.
[Disaster Warning - 4T].
"It's coming!"
After a brief moment of stunnedness, August took a deep breath, sniffed the rapidly thickening tidal breath in the air, and smiled more and more excitedly: "This time it's really a big deal...... Everyone, dress up quickly and get ready for battle!"
As the hurricane swept amidst the increasingly high-pitched roar, the colonel looked up in astonishment to catch a glimpse of the rapidly jumping flash of light in the clouds.
"What the hell is that?"
He couldn't believe it.
β...... It's going to rain?"
β......β
After a brief silence, a sigh from the communication was heard: "Colonel, we may be preparing to retreat...... Everyone retreated backwards to guard against each other's counterattacks. β
Beneath the mask, the old man raised his eyes and stared at the dark clouds above the sky.
My heart is full of regret.
was still too cautious, and as a result, he didn't even have a chance to play the trump card.
Even if we haven't figured out what it is, it's still clear that its existence is inseparable from the Ivory Tower.
"Stop the Wind Tunnel Teleportation!"
He gave the wisest order.
At that moment, with the roar of the explosion above the heavenly dome, a viscous torrential rain poured down, evenly sprinkled everywhere in the Dusk Country.
Color: Scarlet.
That's blood......
Endless blood fell from the heavens, forming a torrent that seemed to engulf the entire world, filling every inch of the land.
What is even more suffocating is the hideous meaning that permeates every drop of rain, the almost endless malice that engulfs every figure who dares to trek through the rain.
Just under the wheels, the grass seeds that fell into the soil began to grow rapidly, germinate, unbelievably blossom and bear fruit, and then spread the seeds and multiply rapidly.
In an instant, clumps of greenery and verdant grew into the barren hell, and flowers bloomed from it.
But in this beautiful scene as precious as an oasis, there were screams one after another.
Unlike Shalamanda, who naturally doesn't like rain and hides in fortifications at the moment of rain, there are still a large number of Hell tribes who are close to water vapor.
But now, in the midst of this rain of blood...... All creatures who dared to expose themselves to the rain were devastated by the tragedy.
If the skin is contaminated with rain, the skin will quickly sagge and wrinkles will develop.
If your hair gets wet with rain, it will quickly lose its color and fall from the top of your head, revealing a devastated scalp.
Even if a scaly claw is touched by the rain, then aging will follow.
Under the rain splashing down, every moment ushered in unimaginable aging and weakening, and in a matter of seconds, a sturdy warrior would fall to the ground, struggling to breathe in the pain of rapid decay of his internal organs.
Once the breath is cut off, it begins to expand, decay, and even decompose at a terrifying rate.
After just half a minute, not even the bones remained in the world, only clusters of lush flowers, weeds, thorns or shrubs and other plants grew and decayed rapidly in the blood rain, returning to the natural cycle.
It's a curse!
A curse clinging to the rain of blood!
After being concocted by the Grand Master, Huai Shi's blood showed no signs of toxin, but was all integrated into the generous blessings.
Grow.
If it's a curse, you might be able to hope that your own resistance can be resisted. But in the face of such generosity, no life instinct will choose to refuse.
Feel the vitality of the rain.
A thousandfold growth, and then, a thousandfold decline.
In the blink of an eye, after spending his short life, everything left behind will become the nutrition of countless flowers and plants sprouting.
Under the shroud of blood rain, a new ecosystem has arrived in the realm of the Land of Dusk, forming a cycle of nothingness.
It's like an invisible millstone, consuming all the life in it little by little.
Originally used as a sub-control center in the Land of Dusk, all that remained of the giant cube was an interface, a connection to the center.
Now, under the stimulation and correction of the secret ritual, it has formed a terrifying weapon that does not distinguish between friend and foe.
It's just like what the Great Master once said.
There is only day and night, which is too lonely.
With its connection to the Hell here, the Grand Master infused a third Calamity Miracle into the Land of Dusk.
- Rain of Aging.
Under the heavy raincoat, August slowly raised his hand, revealing the Ring of the Nibelungen inherited from the leader of the exploration team.
When the stigma of the same origin is called, a terrifying chill quickly rises into the sky.
Accompanied by the roar of the horn.
Shake the rain, the earth, and the sky.
Blinding lightning emerged from the void, intertwining into spears.
The Frost Giants, sleeping in the Nibelungen, opened their eyes, and from here hell slowly emerged.
An endless rain of blood fell on their shoulders, and in the spreading chill it froze into scarlet, like a blood-colored cloak...... In the blood rain of dusk, the excitement was already unbearable.
As the light of the Pillar of Lun rose from the rain, Pendron slowly closed his eyes.
The tide is over.
