Chapter 571 Becoming the Cornerstone of the World
When the phantom of the god appeared at the edge of the fortress, the leaders of the Church of the Four Gods came to the front of the city wall.
On top of this demon-proof wall, there are too many believers . They are the first warriors to respond to the call of God and flock to it.
Although they have never seen the true bodies of their gods, when these phantoms appear before them, they know in their hearts that these are the beings they believe in.
Most of the believers were even ready to kneel down and pray.
However, facing their own gods, there are evil gods that they have never seen before, and those rebellious gods that they have only seen in some ancient books.
You can even see the leaders of the demons below.
Everyone can see it.
It seemed as if something momentous had happened without their knowledge.
Alka, hanging on the rack, attracted these beings.
"Is that Lord Alka?"
"So, everything these days is to catch him?"
After the recent expedition, most people were looking for Alka's movements, coupled with the behavior of these demons.
It is basically certain that the fierce attacks in the past few days were just for Alka alone.
To be honest, for most people, it is a little hard to understand.
But I can't quite understand why these demons are targeting Alka so much?
Although Alka is powerful, he does not seem to be powerful enough to make the demons afraid of him.
There is no need to launch such an exaggerated attack for such a person.
Only the ugly faces of the great leaders of the Four Gods Church and the expressions of those powerful forces told them the seriousness of the problem.
"He is your savior! His presence has severely suppressed our attack. He is the king of the dreamland corresponding to this place.
His dreamland affects reality, making our attack ineffective. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have been able to hold out for so long."
It seemed that someone from the Demon Lord's side deliberately began to talk about Alka's achievements.
Tell everyone in the fort about these achievements.
Hearing this.
At first most people didn't believe it.
However, the phantoms of the four gods, the phantom of the evil god, and the demons that gathered together are all facing this fact.
Because this is verifying his words.
The demons were trying to instill in the enemies before them how important their soon-to-be deformed existence was.
"Now, we will execute your savior in the presence of your God!
Then you will fall into the embrace of the abyss."
After saying.
Sullenster came to Alka's side on the rack.
This specially made execution rack nailed Alka to the cross-shaped rack.
The moon in the sky, as bright as a mirror, shines brightly during the day.
With the appearance of this mirror-like moon.
Everyone just remembered.
It seems that Alka is also the companion of the Star-Moon Valkyrie.
The moon was shining brightly in the sky, getting closer and closer to the earth. Its size and brightness were almost larger than the sun.
A shining meteor drew an arc across the sky and flew towards us at a speed that was beyond the reach of the naked eye.
suddenly.
The sound of flowing river rang in everyone's ears, and bells rang wildly.
Dark grey and dark green fog filled the air.
A heavy fog is coming.
Everyone seemed to feel the shaking of their souls.
In the thick fog, everyone seemed to see a river appear.
A canoe that looked like it was made of dead wood was moving quickly above the river.
He headed straight towards the execution ground.
And on that canoe.
He was wearing a tattered grey-green robe and holding an extremely conspicuous sickle.
"Bang!"
A shining meteor streaked across the sky and slammed down heavily.
An absolutely impenetrable barrier appeared outside the execution ground.
The figure revealed by the falling meteor was none other than Xia Daiti, who was shining in silver-white light.
At this time, she was also dressed like a Valkyrie.
At the same time, the man wearing tattered gray-green robes attacked the barrier and slashed the barrier hard with the sickle in his hand.
The aura she exuded caused her hood to flutter.
That was Lucelia's figure.
"Give me back Alka!"
Two furious roars came out of the mouths of the two goddesses.
"roar!"
"Arka!"
On the city wall.
Pororo and others who were still looking for Alka everywhere also rushed over quickly, and then jumped off the city wall directly regardless of everyone's obstruction.
The huge crystal dragon beast flew straight over.
Many of the defense equipment on the city wall that had not yet been repaired were combined by an unknown force to form a huge steel giant.
The sound of the sound waves formed some kind of penetrating spear that could be seen with the naked eye and pierced over.
Everyone on the wall could see it.
Alka's companions were rushing towards the barrier regardless of everything.
Their actions seemed to have stirred up the entire battlefield.
The four gods and those gods in the void immediately used their powers.
This seems like some kind of signal.
"Warriors! Our God has arrived!"
The archbishop roared, and his whole body radiated a strong holy light. He rushed down the city wall directly with some saints and holy women behind him.
On the other side are the gods of war and the evil gods who betrayed the world.
He began to suppress from a distance, resisting the power of the Four Gods.
"What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for failure?"
Hear this sound.
I knew I couldn't delay any longer.
Sullenst did not hesitate.
A huge megalodon blade appeared in his hand and he slashed at Alka on the cross.
"No! Stop!"
Xia Daiti outside yelled.
However, at this time.
Alka suddenly raised his head and smiled.
The people who had just arrived in front of the execution platform noticed Alka's smile and watched as Alka winked at them.
"Want to execute me? You wish. Hahahaha!"
In Alka's laughter.
As the sword swung, Alka's body suddenly solidified into crystal under the chains that imprisoned his body and soul.
"when!"
The demon's violent sword slashed at the crystal, but it had no effect on it at all.
It seemed as if a soul-like object emerged from Alka's body and turned into spots of light that scattered out.
The crystal condensed from Alka's body then condensed into a crystal pillar that rose into the sky, instantly breaking through the space shell of the execution ground.
The sudden change made everyone stop in their tracks.
Even the gods suddenly stopped.
The crystal pillars rising into the sky are extremely hard and connected to the world, just like the indestructible Tower of Trials.
With powerful fluctuations of order, it fluctuated madly towards the surroundings, and the abyss aura that originally permeated the front line was pushed away in an instant.
The demons could almost immediately feel the strength in their bodies decreasing madly.
This is becoming the realm of order.
Looking at this situation.
The four gods took action immediately. Their power began to transform into rays of light, flowing down from the shadows outside the world and pouring into the crystal.
Xia Deti and Lucilia seemed to understand something as well.
The power turned into threads and flowed into the crystal pillars.
The figures of the gods gradually faded away.
The figures of the evil gods also disappeared soon after.
Salenst looked at the crystal pillar rising beside him with a complicated expression.
Their actions were successful, but also failed in some ways.
As the execution ground in their packages shattered, their figures gradually became illusory, because the execution ground was forcibly transferred there.
The figures of these demon lords also appeared in the place where Alka was trapped before, following the destruction on the planet.
All that was left was a crystal stone stand rising into the sky, emitting brilliant light.
The invisible power links turned into threads that connected from outside the world to the crystal pillars.
As the demon lord retreated.
A large number of demons had been lurking around for a long time and rushed over in an instant.
Because many humans rushed down the city wall.
"Rally to me!"
With the roar.
These humans who rushed down the city wall began to gather into a defense line, fighting and retreating.
"What's going on? These demons are so weak!"
"Could it be that..."
Everyone noticed that the strength of these demons had become extremely weak, much weaker than they were before the anti-magic wall, not to mention compared to before.
Under such circumstances, with the help of Xia Daiti and others, they were able to repel them head-on under the city wall. These demons could not stand them at all, and not even a few corpses were left.
They slowly retreated to the edge of the city wall and climbed up the wall using the reserved ladder.
Under the suppression of siege equipment and soldiers on the city walls, the demons didn't even have the strength to rush to the bottom of the city wall.
What works speaks for itself.
The crystal pillar in the sky.
…
"So what was the problem in the end?"
In the obsidian hall of the volcano, eight demon lords gathered here.
The tall and thin Barbed Demon with red skin attached to bones that seemed to have no flesh and blood asked.
He only saw Salunster preparing to strike Alka with the sword, but the imagined scene did not happen.
Then the current changes occurred.
Salunster sat on the throne, supporting his head with his hands, as if he was thinking about something, and did not answer.
At this time, Farol turned his head and looked at the demon figure made of black smoke beside him.
"Would you mind explaining?"
“I could feel and actually saw the death of this Arka.
He probably knew that he would die, so he made some contributions to the world before he died."
"Speak more clearly."
“Before he died, he burned his soul and turned his body into that huge crystal pillar.
Through the changes in the body and the burning of the soul, the chaos in the Scar area of the World was forcibly suppressed.
Now I can clearly feel that although the corresponding dreamland is dissipating, the power of the dreamland can directly guide its power to repair the world to the outside world through this crystal pillar.
Through such sacrificial means, the scars of the world are suppressed."
Hearing this.
These demons probably understand.
"Then didn't we still get nothing? Instead, we were suppressed even more! So we failed miserably?"
Face this manic demon.
Salenst, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly spoke up.
“No, we succeeded.”
Saying this, Salunst stood up.
"The corresponding dreamland is disappearing. The burning soul and the crystal pillar will not last long."
The black mist-like demon nodded.
"Yes, I believe they themselves know that this stone pillar can only last about 10 years. By then, the kingdom of dreams, the crystal stone pillar in reality, and the light points of those souls will all disappear.
Nothing will be able to suppress us then.”
After hearing this, the demons probably understood.
Simply put, Alka, facing certain death, bought 10 years for the Scar of the world through self-sacrifice.
"Hmph, alright. Just ten years."
For these demons, 10 years is indeed a very short time.
Even the most impatient and reckless demon has the patience to wait.
Then the demons began to shrink their offensive lines and stationed various demon camps in an area 50 kilometers away from the anti-demon wall.
These demon lords have also focused their attention in various places, mostly on preventing humans from continuing the current situation through some means.
Ensure that 10 years later, with the demise of the crystal pillars, they will be able to conquer this world in one fell swoop.
But demons are still pouring out of the cracks.
The entire demon area has become an amusement park where demons fight each other.
All the demon lords only imposed the most basic constraints.
Because that's what they're preparing for.
Ten years of fighting were enough for the demons to eliminate those that were weak enough.
…
In a quiet villa in the rear city.
Inside the lobby of this villa.
Xia Daiti and others sat in various places in the hall, being very silent.
"So...what did Alka's expression at the end mean?" Jason asked.
They all saw Alka in front of them, his soul burning and flying everywhere.
Let's put it this way, now that the chaos in the World Scar has receded, it's due to the fact that Alka's soul is scattered throughout the scar.
They also saw Alka's body transformed into a crystal pillar.
Normally, Alka should be dead.
Because they were immersed in dreams, they could still see.
The realm of dreams is slowly dissipating.
All of this foreshadows Alka's death.
But Shadow Robe, who manages the dream kingdom, was not panicked, but was studying something.
Huan, who temporarily took over Alka's responsibilities in managing the dreamland, is still carrying out his daily patrols.
It seemed as if he was unaware of Alke's demise.
Xuan, who has a deep connection with Alka, is still heartless in his dream.
These strange behaviors also indicated that Alka seemed to have hidden tricks that they didn't know about.
Plus, all this happened too suddenly.
Alka did not ask them for help.
Alka had no foreknowledge of his approaching danger.
Even until the end, they didn't know what Alka had experienced. This was too abnormal.
At least if there was real danger to their lives, Alka would have made some preparations to let them know in the end.
He was caught suddenly and died in public.
"He won't die just like that," Xia Daiti said.
Jason also nodded, then spread out his hand, and a key appeared in his hand.
"What is that?" Simon next to him looked up and asked.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but shift their attention over there.
"Alka gave it to me a few days ago. He said we'd know when the time came. It moved just as Alka died."
A soul-like mist appeared in Lucilia's eyes as she looked at the key.
"That is a treasure of crown rank."
"ah?"
At this moment, Jason suddenly thought of something.
“Remember earlier, Alka asked us if we had memorized the spell to enter the Libra.
Normally he would never ask that question, would he? "
Asking this question meant that Alka already knew something at the time. He was also prepared for the current situation. They also knew clearly that Alka had been waiting for something on the city wall for the past few years.
It's unlike him to be so slow to ascend to godhood and to make any major changes to the front line.
It seems like it is waiting for some important opportunity.
Plus everything that happened today.
It's just that Alka was facing the danger of death at that time, so they had no mood to think about the problem at all.
Now that I have calmed down and recalled Alka's performance over the past two or three years, I can see some strange clues.
"It's obvious that he seemed to have known about my situation today. He did it on purpose." Jason said with a frown.
As he had been in charge of collecting intelligence, he keenly sensed the problem.
At this time Juanlu said silently .
"No matter what, the Virgin Mary knows more than we do."
The meaning is self-evident.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Daiti's figure became illusory and disappeared on the spot.
Seeing this situation, everyone fell silent again, waiting for a more definite result.
Soon Xia Daiti appeared in the living room again.
There was no longer that silent expression on his face.
Instead, he nodded with a puzzled expression. From his expression, everyone could see that Xia Daiti was still confused, but at least he got a relatively positive answer.
Everyone probably understood what was meant, and could only leave with questions and expectations in their hearts.
It's obvious.
Although they don't know the specific situation, it seems to be something that requires a certain degree of confidentiality.
