Chapter 868 The Coming King of Death
"Hehe! Unfortunately, everyone in the royal family, you are still too late! From now on, please become one with the great god in this endless darkness!"
Looking at the vigilant royal guardians with bloodshot eyes, Marquis Winter, who had completely transformed into the form of an ancient Mosasaur, sneered with satisfaction.
At the same time, as his mind moved slightly, a cold and strange aura of dark existence suddenly rose from him.
Under the cover of this aura, the body of Marquis Winter began to distort. The originally smooth skin of the Mosasaur became extremely rough and dark. The slender neck bulged outward in a spindle shape like a flower bud, and then split into nine huge dark red petals that bloomed, and the pistil was a huge mouth like a bottomless pit.
The other marquises also began to transform into the second stage, and a number of "dark followers" with different auras appeared in front of everyone. The auras of the ninth-level people in the Gate of the Pupil also changed, but they still maintained their human form.
This was the camouflage form carefully prepared by the Marquises. With the help of some dust matter extracted from the Dark Pyramid, they completely transformed the body that arrived, just to mislead the newly revived [Curtain of Truth] Onichos.
"Yes, it's finally unblocked..."
Looking at Onichaos breaking out of the seal and the twisted and weird postures of the marquises, the three guardians headed by the royal family strangely regained their calm expressions.
"Then, according to the contract with the Emperor, we can finally use the final means on the territory of the Empire!"
As he spoke, a dark yellow book with a cover as ragged as a rotten throne suddenly appeared in the hands of Gray, the leader of the three royal guardians.
"According to the agreement, we must guard the seal and protect the Gloria Empire until our death."
Beside Gray, the royal guardian Star Guardian smiled and twirled his beard gently.
"But if one day in the future, the seal is about to collapse due to some unexpected factors, and 'that existence' reappears in the main material world. Then, we can also use all the forbidden objects of the royal family to reseal or expel it at any cost."
The only one who can truly pose a threat to the extraterritorial gods is another extraterritorial god.
This was a maxim left behind by the chief prophet of the royal family in the ancient magic empire. This book had existed since who knows when, and after they figured out how to use it, a plan emerged.
"Now that the seal has been broken, it is time for the empire to survive. His Majesty Gloria III has volunteered to sacrifice himself to save the empire from danger."
The last guardian [Heart of Darkness] took over the words and looked at the Marquis with an indifferent expression.
"With the blood of the king as a sacrifice, we ask the King of the Dead who hunts the gods to come and purge this child of the [Veil of Truth] from this world."
As the dark doomsday approaches, all beings above level nine have sensed it to varying degrees. The marquises have their own plans, and they have their own as well. Pretending to be unaware is just playing along with the enemy.
At this moment, sensing the breath of Onichos and many dark followers permeating the cave, an invisible wind suddenly swept up, causing this strange book to float into the air against gravity.
The dark yellow pages of the book rustled in the wind, and on one of the pages, one could even see a flash of an illustration of a person with a ferocious look and facial features similar to Gloria III.
As if it were some kind of strange call, with this book as the core, a huge yellow-robed shadow with a strange crown on its head and its face hidden under layers of hood descended from a distant unknown land.
It seemed that the quality of the sacrifice made it very satisfied, and the power of this descending body was extremely amazing. An equally desperate and terrifying sense of oppression floated in the cave, which conflicted violently with the breath of Onichaos.
When this huge yellow-robed figure appeared, the mist-like body of Onichaos that had just broken the seal suddenly shrank, and the brightness of the dark red light at the core suddenly increased, as if it had sensed the real threat.
Not interested in the many 'little bugs' in the field, the King of Death cast his 'gaze' on the [Curtain of Reality] Onichous that had just broken the seal. A dark wind with a strong ominous aura swept up, silently enveloping the huge sphere of fog and dissolving it bit by bit.
The latter's reaction was extremely intense at this moment. Countless distorted geometric bodies like dust began to shine violently, bursting out with bright white light like star sparks, constantly assimilating the strong wind into new tiny geometric bodies.
At the same time, the entire fog ball began to twist and stretch rapidly, extending towards the direction of the King of Death, trying to assimilate him in the opposite direction, but it fell into a stalemate.
Seeing the sudden change in the situation, the marquises also fell silent.
They had not anticipated that the royal family had such a shocking back-up plan, and the cost was even more incredible.
It costs an entire emperor to summon them once, and it is a little hard to tell who is committing treason.
But with the appearance of the King of Death, the situation on the field once again entered a delicate balance.
Neither side dared to act rashly, let alone join the battlefield at will, for fear of attracting the attention of the great being.
After a while, Onichaos finally took the initiative to break this balance.
After all, he was just a sub-body that was cut off from the main body. He was sealed for thousands of years in one breath. Just after being freed from the seal, he had to face the incarnation of the King of Death in an extremely weak state.
Although his own will was still in a chaotic state, he instinctively sensed the crisis.
His body gathered and dispersed unsteadily, and the dark red glow enveloped the marquises whose auras changed and the Ninth Orders with the Door in the Pupil, conveying a brief message that caused the expressions of the Ninth Orders to change suddenly.
He needs a sacrifice.
With so many "followers", if there are no sacrifices, "He" can only assimilate some of them to temporarily replenish himself.
"You don't have to look at me. Gods cannot be spied on. When a mortal plots against gods, accidents are inevitable. You should have realized this long ago."
Facing the wary and suspicious looks around him, Gray Mist remained indifferent.
"Since the gods need sacrifices, please provide them. Providing supplies to them is also the duty of the followers."
At the same time, as if he had been prepared, Gray Mist actually took out a sealed ninth-order golden dragon from his personal space and sent it into the mist of Onichaos.
However, Gray Mist could easily pull out a ninth-order dragon, but the others were not prepared for this.
Ninth-order beings are not cabbages. Carrying a sealed ninth-order being in a personal space requires a huge amount of magic power to maintain the stability of the space at all times. No one would do this under normal circumstances.
Except for Marquis Draka and the two ninth-level people from the Door in the Eye who were also well prepared, the others were simply unable to come up with sacrifices of this level at the moment.
There was a marquis who decisively withdrew his consciousness and chose to abandon the clone present, wanting to cut off his tail and survive.
The next moment, an ominous dark red light solidified the bodies of these "dark followers" who had not provided sacrifices, like flying insects wrapped in amber.
Afterwards, endless flashes of dust swept together, and dispersed again after a moment, leaving no trace behind.
Gray Wu withdrew his gaze indifferently. He knew very well that the beings that had just been assimilated were completely finished.
