Chapter 584: A City's Tragedy (Part II)
Naris was startled when she heard the voice from Salin's soul, and she couldn't help but rejoice that she had only released more than 3,000 demons and had not fully pursued the enemy's soldiers.
She was afraid that the demon's destruction would be too violent, and Saleen would be unhappy.
More than 3,000 soldiers were summoned back to the Demon God Purgatory, and Neris grabbed Isabella's belt, turned into a Demon God, and flew into the air. The sky suddenly became overcast, and huge clouds enveloped the entire city.
Naris flew towards the serpent where Jason was, but Jason urged the serpent to rush to the east of the city.
Seeing that it was going to rain, there was thunder and lightning brewing at an altitude of 5,000 meters.
This thunder and lightning did not form naturally, but caused energy fluctuations before the collapse of the magic tower, causing a huge thunderstorm.
Shika summoned her soul beast, which was now about 100 meters long, and she said to Jason, "Teacher, I'm not afraid of thunder and lightning. ”
Jason was also curious, sent the serpent back to the summoning space, and followed Salin to jump on the soul beast of Sika. At this time, Nellis also arrived. Salin concentrated on recording this moment with crystals, the altitude of five thousand meters was full of clouds and mist, and huge energy was pregnant, but this energy was not aimed at anyone, and the soul beast flew in the clouds and mist, and it would not attract thunder and lightning.
In the city of Pompeii, the soldiers and inhabitants fell into a great panic, the magicians fled, the aristocratic bureaucracy under the Grand Duke of Pompey also lost its function, and the minor nobles did not know that disaster was coming, but just cowered at home, not daring to come out.
The ten-story magic tower in the center of the city, each floor released countless energy streams, winding around the magic tower, completely sealing the magic tower. In the magic tower, in the teleportation array on the ninth floor, a fiery red bead appeared. The fiery red bead floated above the teleportation array, spinning endlessly.
In the teleportation array below, another elemental creature that was only more than a meter in size appeared-Wind Swallow.
This wind swallow burrowed headlong into the fiery red beads, which rapidly expanded, filling the nine layers of the entire magic tower, and still increasing in size.
The foundation of the ten-story magic tower is deep underground, and the magic tower built by this alchemy city has a metal pillar, more than a thousand meters long, reaching the shallowest leyline, the temperature here is already slightly higher, and it is still far away from the magma, but after the red beads expanded, a white fire element burst out of the metal pillar downward.
The white elemental current pulsed the earth open, the earthquake trembled, the rocks cracked, the temperature became higher and higher, the elemental current broke through the earth, and the earth fire erupted several miles deep underground, melting the metal pillars. The magic patterns on the metal pillars that defend against the heat are useless.
Pompeii, however, was built on a shallow lava lake.
Because the geological structure is very stable and the rock layer is thick enough, there would not be any danger, but the mage of Alchemy City did it in advance to break through the rock layer, which can cause the earth fire to come up at any time.
"Around Sika's soul beast, thunder and lightning began to form, falling to the ground. Most of the lightning vanished before it fell to the ground, and for the first time, Salin's elemental eye looked directly at the thunder and lightning of nature. He watched with fascination, the thunder and lightning formed in the clouds were more powerful than those of his family crest, but they escaped a thousand times faster.
If this energy can be harnessed, the energy of a thunderstorm is enough to destroy any city, including Holy Rock City.
Jason looked at the changes in the ten-story magic tower below and sighed, "The people of the Elemental Hand are still so ruthless, they leave no room for things. If this were not the case, the mages of Devil's Horn and Shreig Island would not have been in trouble with the people of the Elemental Hand to this point, and Alchemy City would not have faced a crisis. ”
"Facing a crisis?" Salin didn't understand, Alchemy City was still indestructible in his eyes.
"Well, what the iron-blooded Grand Duke has to deal with is Alchemy City, the one he hired because of Persia, constantly invading southward, and now the power of Lianyun City has expanded for more than a thousand miles, all of which are small cities attached to the coast. The news from my men is that the Persians have a large number of Predators, and the number is probably more than five thousand. ”
Although the "Five Thousand Predators" Salin has more than 90,000 ancient warriors, he can control less than 1,000. And in the future, the number he controls will definitely not exceed 10,000.
These ninth-level ancient warriors, if they are well commanded, are definitely the supreme military force on the Myers Continent. With his current strength, three or five hundred ninth-level warriors can't do anything to themselves, but five thousand ninth-level warriors can fly, and they have only one way to escape.
Because of Persia, I'm afraid it's a tenth-level powerhouse, right?
Salin was very uncomfortable thinking about this mage who had transformed his body into half alchemy machinery. In order to gain power, even the human body can be sacrificed. This person goes to extremes and will not cause very serious problems.
The tenth-level magic tower shook violently, and it began to rain in the sky, dense raindrops, wrapped in the wind element, washed the entire Pompeii City, and the people in the city did not know that the end was coming.
The magic tower exploded with a loud bang, and the fire element inside expanded into a huge fireball with a diameter of one mile. Salin saw the furious energy rushing towards the sky, forming layers of ring-like energy circles, constantly spreading outward. The energy of this fire elemental spreads out, and everywhere it passes, all living beings turn to dust. Buildings made of metal and rock are scorched by the heat, some melted, and some blown away by the wind element.
"Really vicious" Salin was terrified, if he tried to stop it, at the core of the explosion, I am afraid that the fate puppet would be destroyed directly, and whether he could survive or not would depend entirely on luck.
At the core of the explosion, within a radius of 500 meters, everything no longer exists, and even if you use ordinary magic skills to save the image, you will be affected.
I'm afraid that the Elemental Hand will publicize it to the outside world, and this Pompeii City was destroyed by itself, right?
"What the Elemental Hand does not get, it will not be left to others. Jason explained to Saleen.
"Teacher, this alchemy city ......"
"You wonder why the mages of Alchemy City usually protect civilians and do such a thing. ”
"No, I can understand that protecting civilians is a strategy in Alchemy City, which is used by other professionals and forces. It's just that destroying Pompeii can bring them something? I did what happened to the Iron Wall City, and I don't care about such a false accusation. ”
"The first reason is that it can kill you. The second reason is that if you don't die, you will also be afraid of such a force, and when you do things in the future, you will shrink back, which is a demonstration. ”
"Hmph" Salin snorted heavily, most of the cities below have been turned into ruins, Pompeii City is huge, with a diameter of nearly eight miles, but the explosion of the ten-story magic tower, the power caused by it is probably only formed by magic above the thirteenth pole. And where the magic tower disappeared, the magma was already rising to a high altitude **, spewing up to a height of thousands of meters.
Torrential rains, fires, intertwined, turned Pompeii into a living purgatory.
The rain was broken down by the power of the elements, which instead fueled the fire, and even if there was no such consequence, the place where the lava fell would be a mess of casualties.
Pompeii City is on high ground, which is conducive to defense, and now the magma is spilling down from the heights, flowing, so that all the people of Pompeii have nowhere to hide.
Saleen felt a little sad, how much he loved the city when he and Rex came here.
Rich sense of life, beautiful architecture, ancient history. But now, under the influence of magic, everything will disappear and become a part of history.
The stone tablets with the names of the heroes, the murals that held the ancient battle scenes in place, are now all destroyed. The earth still trembled, centriving on the ruins of the Magic Tower, splitting on both sides.
The entire city of Pompeii cracked, and the temperature of the earth fire caused the clouds in the sky to evaporate, forming a more intense elemental convection.
Thunder and lightning roared, and Saleen saw humans running wild in the city, escaping, but they couldn't escape the burning of the earth's fire.
"Would love to change that, wouldn't you?" Jason looked at his student, and saw the expression of unbearability in Saleen's eyes.
"Yes, I'm thinking, am I studying magic just for myself? ”
"Didn't you say you didn't care?"
"No, I care, I destroyed the Iron Wall City and gave those people time to escape, but the Elemental Hand doesn't make it possible for people to survive at all. I only kill enemies, not the Elemental Hand"
"Salin, it's fine that you don't like to kill at will, but sooner or later you'll understand that killing an enemy is about the same as killing someone who has nothing to do with it. Jason said calmly. He's seen a lot of magical images, handed down from time immemorial.
Sometimes, after a battle, the entire plane is destroyed. What is destroyed in front of you is nothing more than a city.
"How so?"
"Life has its own destiny. The fate of these people of the Grand Duke of Pompey is tied to the Grand Duke of Pompey. Although they did not have a choice, they were innocent. But who isn't innocent? Salen, let me tell you a true story. ”
Jason stood on the back of the soul beast, watching the lightning strike in the distance, and those who did not approach the soul beast were no longer worried. He took advantage of this time to tell Saleen about something he knew.
"In a cold plane, there are many living beings struggling to survive, in this plane, there is a strong man, vowing to change the state of this plane, he spent 128,000 years, ignited the divine fire, and then spent another 300,000 years, became a plane god, the path he chose was to use his life to protect this plane, but when he became a god, this plane was transformed into his divine kingdom. ”
"Finally this plane collapsed?"
"No, the gods are immortal, the kingdom of God is immortal, but he has become the god of the sun, and every day he has to drive the chariot of the sun and fly over the kingdom of God to provide enough energy for the kingdom of God, so that farmers can plant, so that living beings can multiply. ”
"The gods are also selfless?"
Yes, there is, just as there are many selfish people in human beings. ”
