Chapter 181
In this way, the Great Whirlpool had a great time. Those ignorant monsters didn't care about the Great Whirlpool at all; they advanced relentlessly, forward, and forward again.
From a distance, most of the cannon fodder-level monsters looked as if they were deliberately throwing themselves into the vortex to their deaths.
And the vortex was incredibly accommodating.
No matter how many cannon fodder-level monsters came, he accepted them all and devoured them completely.
However, this only includes cannon fodder monsters and some mindless, powerful monsters.
Those powerful monsters that clearly possess a clear will of their own would not go and throw their lives away like that.
Upon sensing danger, they would actively seek refuge, intending to distance themselves from the whirlpool.
"It's really strange. Why would there be such a natural disaster here? It seems to contain some strange monsters as well."
"Could this be caused by a demon?"
"I really want to go down and take a look, but I'm worried I'll die in there."
The giant octopus monster that Renault had previously banished to the seabed also arrived near the whirlpool, watching the scene with great curiosity.
Being in the water, at a level far below the surface, made him feel even more attracted.
Clearly, the effect of a large whirlpool is even more terrifying underwater.
With a loud "boom," the giant octopus watched for a while, then turned and rushed into the distance, determined to continue its pursuit and attack on the humans.
"This time, I will not let you suppress me again." The giant octopus revealed a ferocious smile.
Around him, several enormous creatures were also faintly visible in the sea.
Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that they are all giant aquatic creatures.
In addition, high in the sky, there were also many giant monsters flying around, chattering away.
Their presence pollutes the sky and clouds in various ways, bringing darkness to this land and making it gloomy.
The sun in the outer sky seems to be non-existent to the creatures here.
...
The very bottom of the great whirlpool.
A chaotic dragon, hundreds of meters long, lay quietly on the seabed, with seawater crowding in from all directions.
The entire body of this Chaos Dragon was like a black hole that devoured everything; all things that approached it were swallowed up.
He devoured the most seawater, especially seawater.
And he was clearly Loya.
This extraordinary, almost superhuman, ability to devour prey has the most powerful effect on his growth.
His strength now far surpasses what it used to be.
He now possesses at least the power of a cosmic epic.
This level is indeed insignificant to a god, to his true form.
However, in this world, it is absolutely top-notch.
Based on Loya's various understandings of Awakened Ones and Monsters.
His level is perhaps comparable to that of a savior-level awakened being.
"Perhaps, this clone of mine can also grow to a level comparable to a god."
"However, the commotion is getting bigger and bigger."
Loya suddenly opened his eyes.
He vaguely sensed the rejection and hostility this place held towards him.
"Have I already caught the attention of that so-called world will?"
Loya muttered to himself.
However, when he thought about his current devouring power, and the fact that he had devoured this sea area, he felt that this was normal.
After all, an epic-level powerhouse is still an "ant" in the eyes of a normal planetary world, but this ant is also very huge.
'Attack, destroy the world, let this lingering world decay completely...' Just as Loya was deep in thought, indistinct murmurs appeared beside him.
The voice was highly inflammatory.
Upon hearing this, Loya felt an instinctive restlessness.
"Hehe, what a perfect time to come." Loya laughed.
“Great Old God, please wait a moment. It would be better to destroy the world after I have grown to my limit.” Loya began to bargain.
Although he has grown considerably, he still has no intention of destroying the world directly.
After all, even a dragon must keep its word.
If you say you'll let Vierlan live until she dies, then you must keep your word.
'Roar.' Seemingly sensing Loya's defiance, it let out a muttered roar.
With a "bang," Loya's body trembled violently, a complex will stirring within him.
Loya felt like he was about to lose control.
"Alright, alright, I can't do anything with you. I'll go and attack." Loya reluctantly complied.
Even this clone of his was still unable to resist the so-called Old Gods.
"However, I must make preparations. If my preparations succeed, then this world will inevitably be destroyed."
Loya was not sincere; although he agreed, he then tried to bargain.
However, the will of the ancient god residing here seemed rather unclear. There was no normal communication whatsoever; it merely instinctively urged Loya to deliver the fatal blow.
Otherwise, the other party would definitely find that this "monster" is very strange.
Since you've remained silent, I'll take that as a yes.
Loya smiled slightly.
……
Soon after, it seemed that Loya had not moved, and the will of the old god was stirring again.
"Ugh, you're really going too far."
Loya sighed helplessly. "Why the rush? How can you be so hasty about destroying the world? This is a complicated matter. If our strength isn't sufficient, we must proceed cautiously and slowly."
He really didn't want to rush into war now, as that would seriously alter his plans.
It would also erase the last bit of goodwill he had left for Vierlan.
Of course, if things are truly beyond repair, then he can only accept it.
"No wonder you haven't succeeded in destroying the world after all these years. I guess you just know how to confront things head-on."
"Rude, so incredibly rude."
Although Loya had the idea of compromising, he kept complaining in his heart.
At the same time, his body began to move, but he moved very slowly.
Furthermore, he has not stopped his devouring power.
Therefore, this movement caused the vortex to move as well.
However, at the current rate, it would take at least several decades to reach the continent of Fingergar.
Traveling to other continents would definitely take even longer.
Well, Loya is going to dawdle.
However, despite his despicable and shameless actions, the will of the Old Gods did indeed accept him.
"Ugh, this is so hard for me, I feel like I could kill you all."
Although Loya had succeeded, he was no longer at peace. He felt he was in a lot of trouble and wanted to sweep everything aside.
...
Recently, the situation on the continent of Ferngar has improved somewhat.
Because Vierlan, this "savior," has already left Dawn City and begun to tour the entire continent.
Wherever she went, the monsters were basically wiped out by her sword light.
Her fame grew so much that she became known to everyone.
There are even fanatics who regard her as a true god among humankind.
I have to say, that's amazing.
In addition, her strength has also increased significantly, and she can now easily kill a monster capable of destroying a nation.
However, after reaching this point, the speed at which her strength improved became slower and slower, as if her potential had reached its limit.
Fortunately, we haven't encountered any strange or world-destroying monsters yet.
People already believed that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this demonic calamity would soon subside on the continent of Fingerg.
As for whether it will disappear completely, no one knows.
Because as long as the ancient gods of destruction are unwilling to give up, the demons will exist forever and will never be completely destroyed.
Besides, many other places outside the continent of Fingerg should not be overlooked. Currently, quite a few knowledgeable Awakened Ones are preparing to follow Vierlan to suppress monsters in other places.
Of course, this can't be rushed.
The continent of Fingergar is the most important thing right now.
If the monsters on the continent of Fingerg aren't dealt with, then Villan won't be able to spare any resources.
"A new peace is coming, but we don't know how long it will last?"
Lergis, the powerful Guardian-level Awakened One, floated alone high in the sky, gazing into the distance.
Throughout history, every appearance of a savior has brought a long period of peace to the world. This peace has also allowed many mortals to gradually forget the existence of demons over many generations.
The awakened ones will also actively hide in the shadows to eliminate the remaining demons. They will also record the so-called demonic calamities and pass on their mission.
However, according to the records of many ancient awakened beings, as well as the investigations and research of many modern awakened beings, it has been found that the peace brought by the savior is becoming increasingly short-lived.
You should know that the last time monsters launched a major attack was a thousand years ago.
But the time before that was four thousand years ago.
The time before that was ten thousand years ago.
Of course, the remaining minor demonic disasters do erupt from time to time, but these have no impact on human society as a whole. The Awakened Ones will try their best to resolve these minor disasters secretly.
However, the periods of peace are clearly becoming shorter and shorter.
This indicates that the offensive of the ancient gods of destruction is becoming increasingly fierce.
At the same time, it also reveals the vulnerability of the awakened. The vulnerability of the awakened, in turn, reveals the weakness of this world.
Those who understand these things are filled with worry.
They could already imagine that this massive attack by the monsters was truly imminent.
Perhaps this peace will only last for a few hundred years.
Such a period of time is indeed a long time for ordinary people, but it is very short for the world.
"We must seek new hope and strengthen our capabilities as much as possible."
Lergis was somewhat desperate about the future.
She felt that humanity simply wouldn't be able to withstand the next wave of apocalyptic demonic calamity.
In this way, the destruction of the world can be considered a foregone conclusion.
"Sigh, why did this happen?"
"Isn't it better to live together peacefully?"
Why must our world suffer such misfortune?
Where exactly does new hope lie?
"Is destruction all that awaits us?"
Lergis kept muttering to herself, questioning the world around her, and also questioning herself.
...
There are still people along the coast.
This is the edge of the continent, so although there are people here, their numbers are not very large.
However, monsters are ubiquitous, and they won't lose interest in this place just because there are few people.
On the contrary, precisely because there are few people, there are few awakened beings here. Consequently, the monsters have not been effectively suppressed, allowing them to grow unchecked and carefree. Currently, there are still quite a few monsters here.
However, the monsters' luck here didn't last long.
Because, soon after, many awakened individuals, having freed themselves up from the mainland, began to come here.
Here, the few humans who suffered persecution from monsters finally found salvation.
Before we knew it, many more days had passed.
Finally, the monsters along the coast were mostly cleared out, with only a few remaining in various corners.
...
"Huh, what's that?"
On a certain coastline, there is a natural cliff. There is a small village on top of it.
The population here is sparse, but the environment is quite nice. In the past, there really weren't many monsters that dared to come here.
However, recently, an awakened individual has arrived here.
And this awakened one was an acquaintance of Loya's; he was none other than Fei Ke.
Yes, Fei Ke has also been liberated from Dawn City and has the opportunity to travel to various places to continue clearing out monsters.
However, for safety reasons, there will definitely be some Awakened ones left behind in Dawn City.
Otherwise, if they were all ordinary people, they would be easily harmed by newly born or remaining monsters.
After all, ordinary people are far too weak compared to monsters.
Even the weakest monster can fight ten against one, and is even difficult to kill.
Monsters are practically the natural enemy of ordinary people.
Let's get back to the main topic.
Just now, Fei Ke finished eating and was about to take a stroll around the neighborhood.
Unbeknownst to him, he had arrived at the edge of the cliff, gazing at the boundless sea and hearing the waves crashing wildly against the shore, creating a terrifying sound.
Then, on the distant sea, numerous black dots appeared, seemingly without end.
"A monster?" Fei Ke muttered to himself.
"Be on guard, be on guard."
Although Fei Ke didn't understand what was going on, he couldn't help but shout.
"What's going on?" Hearing Fei Ke's shouts, some of the awakened ones ran over.
“Something came from the sea,” Fei Ke explained.
"Um, that looks like a ship."
Although the distance was too far, most people couldn't see clearly what it was.
However, with so many awakened individuals, there are always some with exceptionally good eyesight.
At that moment, a green-haired girl's eyes emitted a calm white light, allowing her to see the "black spot" that others could not.
"A ship? Are they from the neighboring continent?" a middle-aged man asked curiously.
"I don't know, we don't have much contact with people overseas,"
"Strange, why would people from overseas come here at this time?"
"We'll find out when we go take a look."
...
Everyone's curiosity was piqued.
Of course, the most important thing is to understand the situation.
If there is danger, it's good for everyone to prepare in advance.
"Chirp chirp chirp," suddenly the sound of birdsong came from high above, carrying over.
Fei Ke looked up and saw several small birds flying over.
At first, Fei Ke didn't think much of it, but when he got closer, he was surprised to find that these birds all had only one big eye.
This is clearly not a normal bird.
Despite being so close, Fei Ke didn't sense any hostility from the other party, nor did he feel any of the eerie aura unique to demons.
"What is this thing?"
Be alert, Fei Ke.
At this point, others also noticed these strange birds.
