Chapter 216 Praise the Sun

Chapter 216 Praise the Sun

With the help of the broken reflections of the waves on the sea, Avis also noticed the astonishing purple moon descending in the sky.

Although he did not dare to look up, he could clearly sense the increasingly strong and corrosive moonlight in the surrounding environment.

Holding the eggshell tightly, Avis took a final glance at the remaining objects on the deck surface, looking for something.

Some family-standard exploration equipment, platinum coins and magic metals collected from pagan strongholds, some scattered magic accessories and equipment, and some consumables such as magic scrolls.

In a corner of a pile of junk, Anvis found what he was looking for.

A strange metal bracket with an hourglass on one end, and two halves of a hemispherical Lakensom metal cover emitting a pale blue glow.

That was a delay device specially made by Avis to test the power of the secret plutonium core, as well as a neutron reflection shell to intensify the chain reaction.

In fact, Avis was not sure whether the latter had the effect of reflecting neutrons, but it was better to have it than not.

Although there is an anti-magic field here, Avis had already taken the interference of the anti-magic field into consideration when designing this thing.

In his opinion, the biggest advantage of magic nuclear weapons is that they can be effective in anti-magic force fields, and this advantage cannot be lost because of the fuse.

Due to the sudden setting of the purple moon, the intensity of the corrosive moonlight instantly began to rise infinitely. Green phosphorescence began to appear on Evan's body again, and Avis could no longer perform.

There was no time to wait any longer. Avis suddenly stood up, grabbed the hourglass, took out two metal hemispheres emitting a fluorescent blue luster, and placed them on the isolation bracket on one side of the hourglass.

Then, he fixed the two halves of the thick metal cover on the bracket on the outside of the hemisphere, and fixed the hourglass outside the two halves of the metal cover, making it impossible to close completely.

It is a memory metal that has been specially treated with magic. When the hourglass is completely drained, all the metal brackets will retract directly into the structure at the bottom of the hourglass like a tape measure, allowing the metal hemisphere to become one with the reflective shell.

When Avis tested it previously, it worked as expected.

It took about ten seconds to deal with all this. Avis put down the metal ball, came to Joem and Evan, and used the old secret scriptures to remove the alien power that had eroded their bodies.

The minds of the two had fallen into an abnormal state at this time. After using the power of the old secret scriptures to eliminate the negative state, the two were still a little dazed.

"Mr. Anvis, Mr. Evan, let's abandon the ship! We can find other ways to leave the island later."

After assessing the severe environment around him, Jom immediately decided to abandon the ship and escape from the range of the giant moonlight pillar.

"Sir Joum, in forty-five seconds, I will use a secret item of my family to try to break the anti-magic force field here."

Without time to explain too much, Avis spoke quickly.

"If successful, it will have a devastating effect on a very large area. Remember to activate protection the moment the force field is lifted!"

At this time, the black ship was shaking violently, passing through the ruins of the ancient city wall with strange dark green starfish clinging on it.

A humid sea breeze with a strange salty smell lingered here, stirring up dark waves that violently hit the hull and the stone walls of the ruins, making a loud noise.

At the current speed at which the ship was being dragged backwards, it was less than a minute away from the evil door of the huge temple.

"good!"

Although he didn't understand, Joem nodded and grabbed Avis and Evan, who was still a little dazed, with both hands.

"Now, we abandon ship!"

Following Avis's low cry, the three of them quickly jumped into the ruins on the side of the ship.

"The power of the holy relic?"

Looking down calmly at the three people who suddenly recovered and quickly jumped off the boat, the high priest shook his head indifferently, as if he saw ants struggling to survive in the flood, and ignored them completely.

"Even holy objects cannot compete with gods. When the truth descends upon this world with eternal night, where will you flee to?"

After uttering words that sounded like a prophecy, he raised the scepter high, as if pulling something with force.

Then, the descent speed of the purple moon in the sky suddenly began to accelerate. Even though it was a little dim under the Duke's attack, it still began to fall steadily.

The huge door of the temple began to open again, and the heartbeat-like drumbeat became clearer and faster. In the deep darkness behind it, some indescribable things began to stir.

At this time, there were less than thirty seconds left for the black ship to arrive at the temple gate.

"Your Excellency the High Priest, do you know that the setting moon is not a good sign for you?"

While being led by Joum with his eighth-level physical fitness, he quickly ran out of the city. Looking up at the high priest in the sky, Avis suddenly spoke from a distance.

"The moon descends from the night sky, symbolizing that the night is about to end—"

This attracted some attention from the high priest, but due to the existence of the city's anti-magic force field, he just watched the scene coldly.

"When the moon sets completely, it means that the sun is about to rise, and dawn will replace the night and cover everything. This is the common sense of the world."

"The first sun rises? Dawn replaces night?"

Staring at the 'ant' who was speaking so arrogantly below, the high priest smiled coldly and spoke hoarsely.

"So, where is the sun?"

As the high priest spoke, the gate of the temple opened a little more, and it was now half open. The unknown existence inside was almost about to break out of the gate.

The darkness was not hidden within the temple, but used the temple gate as a medium to gradually open the way to the world.

The purple moon incarnation in the sky acts as a coordinate, able to locate the darkness here in the alien power field that overlaps with reality.

When the door is fully opened, the passage is completely open.

At this moment, there are less than fifteen seconds left before the hourglass runs out.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

At this moment, a human figure in a linen robe suddenly appeared in the center of the black ship's deck.

If Avis was here, he would be able to clearly see the game panel floating in front of him.

The Strange Journey Wizard slowly opened his eyes and looked around.

As one of the internal test players, he has rich experience and can quickly adapt to all environments within the game.

The bumpy ship, the roaring waves, the terrifying light, the green phosphorescence rising around me, and the huge temple that was so close and dark inside...

I glanced at the corner of the panel familiarly and found that there was indeed a prompt.

[You are in a special map and cannot log in]

So, where is this?

But the next moment when doubts arose in his mind, his eyes were attracted by the objects on the deck.

"That's...purple equipment?! Orange item!! I sent it!"

Grabbing the props one by one in ecstasy, the Strange Journey Wizard suddenly noticed a metal sphere emitting a light blue light in the center of these props.

In fact, the sphere is not complete, but there is a gap, and there is an hourglass outside the gap.

As he looked over there, the last bit of sand on the hourglass leaked out.

Snap——

With a faint metallic contraction sound, the hourglass fell onto the deck with a metal ball, and the two metal halves buckled together.

What is that? The Strange Journey wizard walked over with some doubt, but before he got close, a white light like the sun suddenly burst out from the sphere.

When his health points dropped to zero, the Strange Journey Mage had only one thought left in his mind.

Shit, I haven't had time to bind my equipment yet! Outside the city, when the sky suddenly lit up like noon, the magic power in the bodies of the three people immediately resumed flowing.

Looking at the white light that illuminated the entire sky, and the fluctuations that were comparable to the eighth-level peak super-level magic.

Avis clenched the eggshell in his hand and smiled slightly.

"Praise the sun—"

Pale white magic crystal light condensed in an instant, forming a thin crystal-like shield around the three people.

The next moment, a destructive shock wave swept across—
