"Buzz"

The figure of the Aurora-sama, dressed in magnificent armor, flickered in the phantom and appeared high in the sky, stomping on its hooves and spreading its colorful wings to hover high in the air.

Riding in the saddle, Lord Pa Ying looked down with the holy spear in his hand, and the entire brass fortress and the surrounding ground in his eyes sank in an instant, like an invisible fist hitting the ground heavily, crushing the dust and causing an entire section of the mountain to collapse downward.

The burning gold ignited by Lord Hadlan at the last moment to break the subspace rift directly destroyed the underground structure of this area, but this was not the end, the old Edward behind the aurora narrowed his eyes, and he could clearly feel a destructive force converging under the ground.

It's like the first shock just now was just the trigger for igniting the bomb, and the really big one is coming.

"The subspace rift is collapsing, and it is about to release a huge amount of destructive energy, just like the scene that happened in Ice Bay two hundred years ago, and the Brass Fortress is about to end."

Lord Pa Ying whispered.

Old Edward frowned, he really didn't expect that he would have the luck to witness everything that was about to happen for the second time in his life, and he didn't even need Edward to think about it, he could easily understand what the collapse of the Brass Fortress meant at this moment for the already chaotic continental situation.

"I'm more concerned about the djinn we saw than this long-corrupted fortress."

Old Edward asked in a low voice:

"That's a god, right?

I've never seen a god born before, but how can I say that? His pomp and circumstance was a little smaller than I had imagined, and I thought that the movements of the ascension would be more solemn, such as the cracking of the sky, the rolling of the tides, and so on. ”

"Because of the symbolism, Edward."

Lord Pa Ying was patiently waiting for the release of the power of the underground, as if waiting for a fateful moment to come.

He explained softly:

"The kind of mutation of the world that you are talking about comes from the gods who symbolize the natural laws of the world, and the symbolism they hold is superficial laws and powers, but the symbolism of the god of wealth is not visible to the naked eye.

It is a concrete image hidden in the development of civilization, and it is certainly not as clearly visible as the sky, the sea, the tides, and the sun, moon and stars.

But rules are rules!

From now on, there will be an invisible force watching and witnessing every transaction, every process of currency transfer, and every commercial advance in this world, and in that field, He is the supreme symbol.

He could easily shape the big scenes you can imagine, but that doesn't make sense to Him.

For the gods do not need to prove their existence to any mortal, and their power is already vested in themselves.

Subspace is really generous, and such a terrible and forbidden knowledge is thrown out at will, like the bone that lures the vicious dogs to bite each other. Alas, this muddy world is going to be filthy again. ”

"Huh?"

Old Edward blinked.

He wanted to ask something but chose to remain silent, and this time when he saw the Lord, Grand Duke Wolf Venom could sense some subtle changes in the body of the Lord Pa Ying, which he guessed should be related to that bygone era.

With just these few words, the energy accumulated under the sinking brass fortress finally reached the point of eruption, like a nuclear bomb exploding in front of his eyes, and the lilac light obscured the sky and the earth in an instant, expelling the originally shining light sources from their respective fields, and even Edward raised his hand to cover his eyes.

There is no sound of violent explosions, no cool collision of light and shadow, and no continuous crushing light waves.

The energy release when a subspace rift is broken is instantaneous.

Its energy level far surpassed that of mortals at the moment, and in an indescribable way, it began to tear reality apart in the moment of its outburst and tear everything that existed in its vicinity apart, and then reunited in an incomprehensible way.

That is the situation that will be caused when the rules of the subspace and the material world collide with each other, just like the moment a world without light and a world without darkness come into contact with each other, it will lead to the annihilation of both sides, and the collision of two energy that cannot harmonize with each other will result in destruction and razing.

By the time Edward removed the hand covering his eyes, the land in front of him was no longer in the same form as it had been.

The entire Gorgon Pass, where the Brass Fortress stood, had been razed and reshaped like a child's sandcastle, the towering mountains had been reduced to rifts, the flat earth had been forced to rise, and the solid rocks had been reduced to powder.

All man-made landscapes are gone.

The only thing that remained in the black earth, which seemed to have been reshaped from the earth, was the Brass Fortress itself, which had been blessed by Mother Earth everywhere it was built, and even though Gaia's attention to the Brass Dwarves had shifted, his remnants of divine power still protected the city made from an entire mountain.

But Rao is so, and the brass fortress is already crumbling after the explosion.

As Edward's eyes widened, cracks erupted from the rock of the fortress that was constantly exploding, and it was a continuous impact of detonation of one piece after another of gold-burning ore, like a heavy blow of glass, and the magnificent fortress cracked down the top of the fortress at an incomparably swift speed.

A creepy tearing sound came from it, and in the final moment of disintegration, it began to break from the mountainside and collapse in all directions.

The view of the Grand Duke of Wolf Venom was excellent, and he could even clearly see some of the desperate dwarves in the building leaping from the crumbling walls in a violent tremor.

"There are nearly two million brass dwarves in this city"

Old Edward snorted, and said rather coldly:

"Now, they're done."

"No, the god of wealth is protecting them, every coin and wealth used brings a hint of protection, the casualties here are not as great as you think, and the brass dwarves will survive today's calamity.

But they probably have to re-examine their position on the mainland. ”

Lord Pa Ying raised his head.

His eyes under the griffon's helmet locked onto something high in the air, pulling the reins of Aurora to send the feathered unicorn flying with him.

Old Edward stayed where he was, and although he didn't have wings to soar into the sky, his stubby blood wings were enough for him to glide down from the sky without being harmed, and he even had the leisure to take out his notebook in the air.

Like the best recorder, record everything you just see.

This is first-hand information!

Old Edward believed that there would not be many people who would have the same privilege of watching such a catastrophe at such a close distance in the front row, but in the process of descending, the Grand Duke of Wolf Venom soon discovered that something that should not belong here was moving in the smoke and dust that reached into the sky.

In addition to the Burners who were still slaughtering the poor dwarves, tens of thousands of black nezumi were rapidly approaching the dwarves' ruins by digging underground, and in their current state, the brass dwarves were under attack by so many nezumi head-on

"Heh, I take back what I just said."

Old Edward grinned, made a note in his diary rather coldly, and said casually:

"Now, the brass dwarves are really finished."

The precise flickering of Lord Aurora in the sky brought Lord Pa Ying to the position in front of him, and at the moment of appearance, something wrapped in strange power whistled and grazed the body of the Lord and leaped upward.

It was a war hammer.

A quaint, stone dwarven-style two-handed warhammer was carved with goats and bears on either side of the hammer by skilled craftsmen, and its gray hammer was covered with runes in praise of Mother Earth, and the dwarves had carefully woven red straps for it, and a golden cross-shaped spear tip with a chain embedded in the tail of the hammer.

This is Gaia's power!

The earth relics held by the brass dwarves are also the evidence of the lordship of the brass dwarves.

Lord Pa Ying had seen this warhammer up close many times in the past thousand years, and he would never admit that it was wrong, and now this warhammer was exerted by the burst of subspace energy just now, and it continued to sprint towards the sky, but its speed was getting slower and slower, and it was obvious that the applied force was dissipating.

The Lord raised his head and watched as the warhammer drained the last of its kinetic energy more than a dozen meters above his head.

It was in a very strange pause for a moment, and then it was as if an invisible force had applied a forward momentum to it, causing the warhammer to spin in the air and smash downward.

Like a cautious but short-sighted angry god, he grabbed the hammer in one second and slammed it down in one direction.

The warhammer flew faster and faster in the air, accumulating incredible momentum in a very short period of time.

Under the silent gaze of Lord Pa Ying, Gaia's power broke through the speed of sound in the air, but it continued to accelerate as if pushed by rage, accelerating in a straight line diagonally downward towards the completely transformed Gorgon Pass.

It even brought a piercing howl in the air.

Like a meteorite streaking across the sky, the high-speed friction with the air enveloped the thing in blazing flames.

Somewhere underground, a nezumi leader who was running forward in the rat army shivered strangely, and when he looked left and right but did not see any danger, he let out a noisy hiss, and ordered his subordinates to continue to speed up, and to rush into the ruins of the dwarves on the orders of the "great master" and slaughter all the lives there.

Then, in the next second, Gaia's power landed on the ground with unimaginable impact.

The moment of contact opened the devastated earth for the second time, but this time the movement was obviously more terrifying than the previous one, and it also more directly declared the true feelings of a great being for what happened today.

The hammer fell like a meteorite.

As it penetrates deep into the earth, it exerts the kinetic energy it carries in all directions in a propulsive way.

In the eyes of Lord Pa Ying in the sky, he witnessed a shocking rift crumble across the black earth, killing the first wave of nezumi in a brutal way in the underground power surge.

There are only so many nezumi who have been directly stoned to death, and the rest have died from the rolling and collapse of the ground after the kinetic energy is applied.

It is basically equivalent to the release effect of a demigod seismic.

This is not the limit of the divine power, but the angry and unwilling to reveal the name of the great being cannot create a more terrifying earthquake, the main thing is that she must gather some strength so as not to pinch the brass dwarf who has suffered the old sin to death.

But only this time.

The release of this great power in the material world requires a carrier, and Gaia's power is only that handful, and it can only save the brass dwarf who is currently miserable to the extreme.

"Huh"

Lord Aurora landed in the crater at the beginning of the rift with his good brother Pa Ying.

Pa Ying rolled over and dismounted, levitating the holy spear beside him, and stepped forward on the glassy earth, reaching out to touch the holy relic warhammer that had stayed there diagonally, still maintaining a striking posture.

A strange force protects it.

The Lord stretched out his finger to touch the warhammer and was immediately invaded by the illusion of the collapse of the brass fortress, and the Holy Spear, which had always been invincible to evil, failed to protect its wielder this time, which showed that this power was not evil.

This is clearly a warning.

Don't touch it!

"Okay, okay, you've lost an old friend, I know."

The Lord took a few steps back and made a tribute to the warhammer that had been cursed by the Great Being, and he sighed and prepared to leave, but a few seconds later, the newly mounted Lord Pa Ying looked back with a frown.

He could feel more nezumi approaching from underground.

Obviously, the wrath of the Great Being could not frighten anyone at all in this situation, at least not the evil creatures of Dusk.

Once so many nezumi are allowed to storm the ruins of the Brass Fortress, the surviving brass dwarves are absolutely doomed, but what else can be done to solve this problem now?

No.

There won't be anything left to do.

At least Lord Pa Ying couldn't have imagined, but he didn't just evacuate, he promised Hadran that he would help him take care of those who survived the disaster.

Although these dwarves have renounced their belief in Mother Earth, they are still part of the civilization camp and cannot be allowed to die in the claws of the nezumi.

A few minutes later, on the edge of the ruins of the Brass Fortress, a wing-flapping flying unicorn fell from the sky, and under the stunned gaze of some dazed, gray-faced brass dwarves, Lord Pa Ying turned over and dismounted, and patted the noble horse's buttocks again, so that the unicorn was ready to charge.

He stood in place with the holy spear in his hand, and in front of him was the direction of the ratmen in front of him.

"I said, you're ready to do it again."

Old Edward's helpless voice rang out from above, and in the next moment, his gliding wings fell to the ground, and he glanced at Lord Pa Ying, and then at the panicked dwarves who kept dragging their families and escaping from the ruins behind him.

He said:

"You know, even if you're tired here, you won't be able to save them all."

"That's why I brought you, Edward."

The Venerable Lord said in a calm tone:

"You're a never-tiring blood hunter, given enough time, you alone can kill all the nezumi in the Dark Mountains, you've been hiding in the shadowy ditch for too long, it's time to smell the sun."

"Listen to what you said, I'm a vampire and not a freak like Murphy, and I hate the sun by nature."

Old Edward whipped out the thorn of fear and complained:

"We old guys owe you a lot."

"Of course, you do owe me a lot, so stop talking nonsense and get ready to fight."

——

"! Did you see that? Murphy! Gaia was really angry, she actually borrowed that war hammer to unleash her power in the material world! The attrition rate of this transmission of power across the subspace and the astral plane was staggering, but she did it anyway.

It seems that Mother Earth is really angry. ”

Mannes the Endless, who didn't think it was too loud, whispered in Murphy's ears.

But Murphy didn't have time to pay attention to it, he watched the whole process of the destruction of the Brass Fortress with the help of Mannes's vision, and with the fact that the Serpent of Time could go anywhere at any time, he even watched the whole process of the feud between Lord Hadland and General Bannock.

There are so many secrets in this matter that they are simply scary to study, such as the pathetic role played by Bannock in this so-called "change", and the whole process of the birth of the god of wealth and the means by which Bannock quietly completed the symbolic sacrifice.

Murphy knew that he would have to spend a lot of time researching it, and Trissy, as the best theologian on the continent, would definitely not let go of the explosive event of the birth of Dutna Burn.

But now, when he saw Lord Pa Ying and Old Edward standing guard in front of the ruins of the Brass Fortress, Murphy knew that it was time for a hero as handsome as himself to appear to turn the tide.

He was willing to do so.

But only if Murphy had to think about whether the benefits were proportional to the risks, he took a few minutes to think about it, and then walked briskly through the R-9 base to the "brain in a vat" guarded by Tracey herself.

When the frontline nezumi attacked, the process of the light spots in this irregular crystal appearing and dissipating was amazing, as if this thing was really "thinking".

"Mannis"

Murphy narrowed his eyes and put his hand on the thing, he felt the cold touch, and said:

"Help me contact Ms. Gaia!"

"Ha, I must have heard it wrong just now because I ate melons, who do you want me to contact for you?"

"Mother Earth, the race god of the dwarves, the master of all things, mountains, and the earth. I'm right, and you heard me right, help me contact Gaia, and before I can do anything to free those pathetic dwarves, I need to figure out what Mother Earth really thinks.

After all, if you slap a horse's leg, it's over. ”

"Woohoo, this is a risky thing, after all, Lady Gaia is angry, and a notorious guy like me dares to knock on his door now, and if she doesn't get it, she will be killed."

"When this thing is done, I will give you some favors, a god's favor, you can think about it yourself."

"No! Wait a few minutes, and I'll go to Padd to catch up. ”
