The slime filled with the power of the abyss is overwhelmingly crushing.

The protective rituals at the Legals Branch's premises had been completely breached, but the preset magical rituals had not worked - after accepting Justina's proposal, Shuge took the initiative to sever the connection between the protective ritual field and the preset magic, and with his own abilities, he re-established a temporary new line of defense inside the halls of the Legalist Branch.

Although the protective rituals set up by Xiuge could not be compared with the large-scale protective ceremonies or permanent ceremonies in terms of strength, relying on the architectural structure of the Dharma's residence and the relatively small area of the enemy, Xiuge was still confident that he could hold out through this line of defense for a long time.

His judgment was correct, with the illusion of fate established indoors, and the large number of Abyssal Mists and Calron's Touches laid on the edge of the defensive line, the children of the Abyss who swarmed up were not only unable to break through the obstacles in a very short time, but were even disturbed by the deranged illusions that were applied to the perceptual level, and scurried around the buildings in vain.

This created the terrifying scene that the crew of the magical airship saw in the air - countless viscous black shadows were attracted by the aura released by Shug and Justina, and they gathered under the command of the subject's will, and walked around the breached Legion Residence, wrapping the main building where Shug and Justina were hiding.

At this time, Justina, who was in the middle of this hellish scene, had already entered a different state.

She calmly made her way to the edge of the protective ritual ground, and stretched out her limbs made of the fog of the Abyss outward, officially beginning contact with her "kindred".

As a "father" closely related to Justina, Shuge directly felt a violent mental impact as soon as Justina made this action, and the metal disc as the carrier of his power began to rotate at high speed, and the sound of those precision metal gears continued to echo in his spiritual world.

And on this metal disk, the "grooves" most closely related to the Abyss Court have now begun to violently turbulent.

The Mirror Emissary and the Court Hound were now forced to leave their habitats, they could no longer stay in their own territory, and were forced to come to the cave of the Running Rat, and although Snicky did not deal much with them, it was clearly not the time for a conflict, so it magnanimously allowed them to stay for a while.

As Justina's own strength and will began to come into contact with and merge with the Descendants of the Abyss in the outside world, Shuge saw that the abyssal mist inside the metal grooves began to swell and tremble, and then they began to overflow from the inside of the groove space and flow freely on the surface of the metal discs.

Cold and voluminous messages gradually emerged along the way, and Shuge was all too familiar with this feeling.

He remembered feeling something similar the last time he had fled Seren, and was attacked by the Sons of the Abyss—a sign of the Heirs of the Abyss trying to deprive him of his will.

He was completely different from the past, and this level of influence could only further accelerate his metal disc, but it could not interfere with or damage his thoughts and actions at all.

However, Xiuge also knew that this kind of shock was actually only a part of the impact that Justina was currently experiencing, and that her contact with the Descendants of the Abyss was tantamount to opening up a new battlefield.

It will be an invisible war based on spirit and will.

Justina proved what she had said with her actions, and Shug noticed that as soon as she came into contact with the Descendants of the Abyss, there were already "traitors" among the surrounding Heirs.

They immediately ceased their original attacks and pounced on their own kind, and after tearing their targets apart, they immediately began to draw on their opponent's power and make them nourish their "new subjects".

In the process, Justina's face and body began to change, and as spirit and consciousness collided and collided with each other, she could no longer maintain her human form as before.

Shug saw that her body began to rapidly transform in the direction of black gum, and the faint green light and shadow characteristic of the children of the Abyss began to emerge, and the clothes that had been put on her body fell through the fluid body.

Soon, after the initial confusion, the main consciousness of the Descendants of the Abyss finally realized what was wrong, so it quickly stabilized its "front" and began a meat grinder against Justina.

As the intensity of the battle increased, Justina was unable to even maintain her human form, but it was at this moment that Shoge began to act.

Naturally, he couldn't let Justina be devoured by the heirs, so a large number of black tentacles that had alienated arthropods and blades began to stir along the defense line, strangling all the Descendants of the Abyss who tried to expand the results of the battle or exert pressure, and the Essence of the Abyss that was snatched from them was "fed" to Justina, who had turned into a blurred shadow, without hesitation.

A long and tragic tug-of-war began.

Hug found that his decisions based on the illusion of fate seemed to be working, and Justina had now dragged the dangerous Descendants of the Abyss into a new sprawling quagmire.

As she said, this magical creation is extremely powerful and dangerous due to the peculiarities of its spiritual structure, but it is precisely because of this that once their consciousness level is threatened, they must call upon all available forces to remove the threat, otherwise they do not have to wait for the black sun to rise, and these consciousnesses, which are completely contrary to the instincts and goals of the species, are enough to completely wipe them out.

With the unleashing of Justina's power and the contamination of those special consciousnesses, the children of the abyss have no way back, for once they retreat, those forces that they seem to have been assimilated by the human will will immediately surge forward and multiply their gains.

Faced with the difficulties suffered by the Race in the city of Seren, the will, fed by countless knowledge and wisdom, also made its own decision, and they began to shrink their power, and were ready to exert maximum pressure on the two "key targets" within the Dharma's residence, knowing full well that once they seized the opportunity to deal with these two important and dangerous prey, they would naturally be able to meet the challenges of the future.

In the midst of the fierce conflict, Justina had completely dissolved into a black mist of indecipherable shapes, seemingly indistinguishable from the children of the outside world, and the rate at which Shogo's own mana was consumed was constantly increasing.

The "Walking Forest", which is the heart of his magic power, has already operated to the extreme, on the huge metal disc, in addition to the overflowing abyss mist, the dark green magic light and shadow are also constantly flowing, and the green crystal heart embedded in the center of the disc is constantly flashing at an alarming frequency, and every time it flashes, it will complete a cycle of magic for Xiuge.

It seems that the battle between Justina and the Descendants of the Abyss has entered the "stalemate" that she had hoped for, in which Justina's influence over the large race will continue to grow, and in turn, the power of the Descendants of the Abyss will be rapidly depleted, in which case their defeat seems to be only a matter of time.

However, Xiuge was not optimistic at all.

Because he could always hear a dull roar now, it was obviously not the sound that the survivors' crystallized cannons and alchemy bombs could create, and he judged that it was most likely a "terrifying bombardment" launched by the magic airship, which meant that the Emergency Committee was carrying out the "Jiaocheng Strategy".

Not only that, but Shuge was also able to perceive the increasingly irritable and unstable magic in the environment.

A terrifying line is closing in on Vann at a steady rate, and judging by its speed, I am afraid that the hour of dawn is when it arrives.

"Justina, can you still speed up?"

After feeling the unprecedented pressure, Xiuge immediately asked Justina, who had turned into a fog, but the other party had no way to answer himself at this time, and Xiuge could only reluctantly feel the "no" answer transmitted by Justina through the magical connection between himself and the other party.

The strangulation between the invisibles is still going on.

The evacuation of the survivors continues.

And the bombing of the airships did not stop.

Everybody's hoping to be able to complete their mission before that point in time comes.

Each of the empty ships that carried out the "Jiaocheng Strategy" was equipped with three special high bombs, which could be called "masterpieces" of this era from the perspective of magical alchemy.

According to prior testing, these special bombs, named "Mel's Fire", will be able to create flames capable of crushing ordinary lake-level or river-level magic while causing an astonishing magical explosion.

They are the key to the creation of "Jiaocheng".

And now, the three airships have come to the top of the headquarters of the Judicial Committee, and through the bright giant crystal lamp, the crew can see the strange scene below more clearly-the pitch-black shadows that should have been gathered together are now divided into two very obvious parts.

Taking the central area of the Legislative Commission's premises as the dividing line, some of them are constantly trying to push inward, while others are trying to push back from the inside out.

In addition, the crew of the airship can also see some other magical lights and shadows, and these magic seems to be working with the "monsters" in the central area to carry out extremely efficient killings of their kind.

The soldiers aboard the airship were so shocked by this discovery that they immediately informed their commander of the discovery.

After hearing that there were still people in the Judicial Council Residence, which he had regarded as a "dead place", was still engaged in fierce confrontation with those monsters, the commander of the Second Airship Regiment of the Kingdom of Deland almost thought that there was something wrong with his ears.

He repeatedly confirmed the responses given by the three airships, and the expression on his face changed.

At this time, the third round of bombardment of the airboat regiment in the city of Serun had officially begun, and in order to ensure that the "Jiaocheng strategy" did not go wrong, all the airships needed to drop bombs over specific locations during the corresponding time period.

Only when the magic explodes and the flames burn together can the monsters in the city be truly effective, as calculated by the mages and scholars.

After a few moments, the officer finally made a decision.

"The original central bombing point was withdrawn, and each boat used the edge of the Judicial Commission station as a reference to drop bombs, and it was necessary to ensure that the flames after the explosion could cover the station......"

This is the maximum concession he can make as a soldier.

He had no idea of the identity or status of the mysterious rebel in the Dharma's residence, and in such a situation, he was really unwilling to drop a high bomb directly on the other party, and he would rather fight for the other party's 1% chance of survival than let the "brave and powerful mage" die directly in the magic explosion.

"May the Goddess Mel protect you, may the Goddess Mel protect you......"

The officer stood at the observation port, praying silently in his heart as he looked at the Dharma's residence where the children of the Abyss lived.

After about five minutes, the three magical airships that had arrived above the bomb drop point had finished adjusting their positions, and as the soldiers turned the metal handwheels vigorously, the dark bomb bays opened, and after filling them with crystals and triggering the secret ritual preset on the "Mel Fire", these heavy and deadly expensive alchemy bombs left the airship and fell straight down.

At the moment when the bomb was dropped, Shug, who was in the middle of the Dharma's residence, was busy manipulating the two magical rituals to help Justina gain a foothold in the encirclement of the Descendants of the Abyss, but before he could finish the ritual in his hand, a terrifying shiver rushed up from under his feet.

The metal disc suddenly accelerated, and the Destiny Root Clan, which was active nearby, also began to continuously send warnings to Xiuge, in the face of such a situation, where did Xiuge dare to delay, he immediately stopped the work in his hands, and withdrew the Touch of Calon that had been expanding outwards on the spot.

He lunged to the side of Justina's body, and then, just as he had done when he faced the explosion and impact head-on, Shug began to shrink all his magic, and the touch of Calon revealed itself without limit, they intertwined, overlapped, and generated layers of hard skin under the nourishment of the magic of the Abyss.

“？”

At this time, Justina was a little sluggish, and she was very puzzled by Xiuge's actions, so she sent a signal of confusion to Xiuge in a daze.

However, Shug didn't have time to respond to her, because in the next instant, as the terrifying roar fell, violent tremors and waves of fiery magical flames erupted at the edge of the Dharma's residence, and three incomparably brilliant arcs of flame spread out from the center of the explosion.

In front of that blazing flame, even the blood-red sky was somewhat eclipsed.
