Chapter 215 Facing the Truth

Chapter 215 Facing the Reality

On the violently shaking ship, Avis quickly opened the two metal boxes, revealing two beautiful metal hemispheres emitting a faint blue fluorescence.

The magic-repelling metal box was a bit too big to be carried. Avis took out the two metal hemispheres and placed them on the left and right sides of his cloak, in the pockets that were originally used to store spellcasting materials.

Although it looks ordinary in appearance, in fact, the traveler's cloak of the Olivendi family is always somewhat different from the real ordinary.

The seemingly ordinary pocket has actually been processed with a special secret method, which is enough to completely isolate all negative forces from the two metal hemispheres.

Moreover, when his physical fitness recovered to the seventh level, the "cursed power" of the metal hemisphere could no longer pose a threat to him.

In fact, Avis had long wanted to find a place where he could freely experiment with the power of magic nuclear weapons without causing any news to leak.

At the moment, although this is a dangerous place, it is a surprisingly suitable location.

The divine moonlight could even stop the duke from attacking with all his strength, so it must be able to prevent outsiders from investigating as well.

The only problem that needs to be solved is that he himself cannot leave the test site at present.

At the same time, Avis was quickly picking up some items on the ground, looking for something that might be useful to take with him.

Except for the storage ring that contained the statue, all the items in the other two rings for miscellaneous items were thrown onto the deck.

At this moment, he saw something out of the corner of his eye.

It was half an eggshell made of extremely pale white crystal.

A slightly bold idea suddenly arose in his mind.

Evan's reaction was a little slower than Avis's, but seeing Avis's actions, he also reacted and opened the ring before entering the barrier. He temporarily picked out a sword and a piece of exquisite inscribed armor from his inventory for self-defense.

Joem had now gotten rid of the high priest's mental shock, but due to the existence of the anti-magic force field, he could no longer use the force field to control the ship. He could only watch the ruins of the ancient city grow larger and larger in his sight.

Behind the ship, the huge pillar of divine moonlight was already within reach.

Avis could clearly see the ruins shrouded in moonlight, as well as the various strange corals, aquatic plants and marine life of unknown species attached to them.

The power of the curse also affected this place, causing mutations in species in the ocean.

At the same time, as the beam of light continued to pour in, the city below strangely began to become brighter and brighter, as if it was using itself as a cup to hold the moonlight falling from the sky.

At the same time, in the huge temple in the center of the city, the two tightly closed heavy rock doors that were tens of meters high suddenly opened a crack with a dull loud noise.

Behind the door was a chaotic, dark space.

It is a place that cannot be reached by any dreams. Although there is a bright light outside the door, there is not a single ray of light that can illuminate even a tiny bit of the ground inside the door, as if an endless abyss is hidden there.

When the door opened, a strange sound, hollow and monotonous, like the beating of a huge drum, gradually echoed in the space.

At first, the sound was very slow and low, and only faintly sounded around.

But as the moonlight filled the ancient city, the originally vague drum beats gradually became clear and powerful.

Like a heartbeat——

Surrounded by the 'heartbeat', Evan hugged his head in a slightly twisted posture, a hint of confusion and madness flashed in his eyes.

Without Joem's protection, Evan, the weakest of the three, suddenly seemed to have difficulty holding on in this abominable sound wave containing alien power.

Even Joem began to lean on his sword with one hand, his eyes slightly narrowed, trying his best to suppress all the negative states that arose from the bottom of his heart due to the cover of this voice.

Yes, Jom had his own sword, but Avis had never seen him use it once along the way.

Avis withdrew his gaze from the two of them and sat down on the side of the boat in an ungainly manner, pulling his hood down to hide his expression.

There was nothing abnormal about his condition at this moment. The Old Secret Scripture was completely unaffected by the anti-magic force field and still had the effect of absorbing the fluctuations of alien forces.

This was done for others to see. After all, from the outside, he was just a harmless "Level 3 Professional".

An eighth-level and a sixth-level person beside him both showed negative conditions to varying degrees, so he shouldn't act like nothing happened.

The influence of the anti-magic force field is impartial. Even the person who initiates the force field cannot use mental power within the force field.

Therefore, Avis was not worried that his true situation would be sensed.

At the same time, the black ship, which was being dragged backwards rapidly, finally completely sank into the range of the moonlight pillar.

Avis could feel that in an instant, a more intense alien power quickly enveloped his entire body, and the "Old Secret Book" hidden under his thick cloak also began to emit a strong light.

While absorbing the erosion of the surrounding alien forces, he was also reminded of the great dangers in his environment.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Jom was already half-kneeling on the ground with his sword in his hand, and Evan lay down again, closing his eyes tightly, trying to resist the corrosive force of the environment.

"Do you feel it? The door has been opened, and the truth is about to return!"

In mid-air, the hoarse voice of the high priest was heard again.

"Fear! Fear, you ignorant ones! For the truth will come with the end and take everything for itself!"

"In the realm of God, you have no way to escape—"

"But don't worry. Once you become one with reality, you will soon see that the whole world is returning to darkness under the footsteps of reality."

With one last glance at the three people on the boat who seemed to be unable to hold on, and the black ship rapidly rushing towards the temple, he calmly raised his scepter and turned to the huge purple moon in the sky.

"And when the truth comes, the primordial moon will take us home."

As he spoke, he raised the scepter for the third time, and it fell into the void.

Then, the outline of the purple moon hanging in the endless sky suddenly began to slowly grow larger, and its surface began to become clearer and clearer.

From its original size that was nearly that of a carriage, its volume gradually expanded to be close to that of an alchemical airship, and finally it looked like a suspended round mountain.

The huge purple moon in the sky suddenly began to sink towards the city!

As the purple moon set, the crack in the center of the ancient stone door of the temple gradually began to widen again.

The eyes under the hood stared at the darkness in the gap, and an indescribable sense of horrible oppression surged into Avis' heart, which made him once again determined not to let it open completely.

However, it seemed to be related to the power confrontation with the Duke. The purple moon in the sky came down unhurriedly and in fits and starts.
