Chapter 373: The Fall of Heaven (Part 1)
At this moment, in the dream world, the ninth level of the Magic Council, who had the fastest exploration progress, had already arrived outside the core energy room first. But at the same time, they also discovered something unusual about the energy room.
"Wait...something's wrong, don't open the door yet!"
At the last moment before the door of the energy room was about to be opened, [Mystery Seeker] Olvani suddenly raised his hand and carefully stopped the actions of everyone in the team.
"Have you found anything, Mr. Speaker Olvani?"
In response to Orvani's sudden warning, the actions of the three ninth-level mages of the surrounding council all stopped.
After sensing it, one of the female spellcasters moved her robe slightly and asked about the doubts of several people.
Although from the outside world's perspective, the number of ninth-level warriors coming from the parliament seems to be the largest, but the number of people who truly belong to the Magic Council is actually less than two digits, and most of the rest are lone ninth-level warriors from the major kingdoms of the Itel Federation.
It was just that since Orvani, one of the three speakers of the Magic Council, was present in person, the meeting was temporarily led by people from the council.
"According to secret information, this should be the location of the core energy room, but I sense the presence of something extremely dangerous inside."
With a slight frown, Olvani's silver eyes swept across the dark metal door, somewhat hesitant.
"Before we set off, Mr. Bruntz once predicted to me that there would be a huge danger on this trip. From what I can see now, it is very likely to be near the core."
"Mr. Speaker, what should we do now?"
After listening to Olvani's explanation, another spellcaster asked.
"us……"
Rolling——
But just as Orvani opened his mouth, the heavy gate beside him suddenly trembled, and then slowly opened by itself.
The moment the door opened, a creepy sense of crisis immediately spread throughout the mages.
"not good!"
Without having time to consider why the door opened by itself, the four mages immediately retreated, trying to conceal their own breath and stay away from the door as much as possible.
At this moment, from the corridor on the other side, the Vatican team led by Archbishop of the Holy Light Church [Holy Judge] Jorgson just arrived, and also noticed the slowly opening gate and the retreating parliament team.
"We meet again, guys. Why are you running away?"
Without paying attention to the gate at the first time, Jorgson simply raised his hand, and several holy white illusory chains composed purely of rule inscriptions emerged from the void and quickly shot towards the four people, trying to keep them behind.
Facing Jorgson's attack, except for Orvani, the other three mages could only mobilize the power of rules to resist, but the speed inevitably slowed down.
"Damn it! Jorgson! Stop it! Can't you feel what's inside the door?!"
Orvani turned around angrily and waved his hand. An invisible magical wind blew past, instantly disintegrating several chains at the root.
"Oh? This feeling..."
With an indifferent expression, Jorgeson put down his raised hand and shifted his attention to the door. After sensing it slightly, his eyes also became solemn.
"Is it an outsider, an ancient alien that descended from the darkness and awakened in a corner where the glory of the gods has not yet shone?"
A pure white divine punishment crystal appeared in his hand again. At the same time, several ninth-level members of the Church behind him spread out slightly and formed a simple protective magic circle.
At the same time, the metal gate of the energy room was almost half open at this moment.
The room was completely dark, and nothing could be seen. Instead, there was an extremely ominous dark dreamlike atmosphere, like sticky oil, flowing continuously into the corridor along the open door.
Both sides were highly alert to this pitch-black aura of unknown origin. Several ninth-level warriors tried to use the power of rules to eliminate it, but the effect was far from satisfactory. It took almost three parts of the power of rules to offset one part of the black aura.
At this moment when the two sides were temporarily confronting each other, another ninth-level team from the Federation and a team from the Empire finally arrived here.
But before they could react, an illusory projection of a man wearing a pitch-black cloak and with his face covered by a hood suddenly appeared in front of the many ninth-level beings.
"Um?!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment by the appearance of this figure, and then immediately realized that this was probably the mysterious man who controlled the city in the intelligence.
There were not only many ninth-level people exploring in the city, but in the sky outside the entire floating city, there were suddenly several huge projections of the interior of the floating city, and the protagonists among them were none other than the ninth-level teams exploring the ruins.
The current exploration status of the ninth level of each major force is displayed extremely clearly to the eyes of the outside world.
"Look! That seems to be a scene in the city!"
Seeing this scene, many ninth-level warriors who were watching from afar were a little surprised and immediately contacted their respective forces.
Soon, almost all the major forces knew about the incident in the floating city.
"Who are you?"
Inside the city, while being wary of the darkness in the door, Jorgson stared coldly at the projection in front of him, his tone as if he was interrogating a heretic.
At the same time, several ninth-level mages began to cast spells, trying to trace the location of the original body directly along the projection.
However, with the entire floating city's magic system as a defense, this tracing did not take effect.
"Me?"
In the projection, Avis lowered his hood slightly and smiled silently.
"Have you ever heard of the name of the Gloria civil resistance organization 'Spark'?"
"Are you from the Spark Organization?!"
Upon hearing this, a ninth-level cultivator from the Aslade family was suddenly a little surprised and suspicious.
Suddenly, he heard the name of a resistance organization that was causing trouble in his province, but he had never paid attention to it. While he was surprised, he couldn't help but re-evaluate the threat of this organization.
"Spark Organization... Even if you want to fool us, there should be a limit."
After staring at the image of Avis in silence for a moment, Orvani shook his head with a very firm tone.
"Indeed, as Mr. Orvani just said, I am not a member of the Spark organization."
In the projection, Avis nodded slightly and admitted this very frankly.
"However, the focus of my words just now was not the 'Spark', but the Gloria Civil Resistance Organization."
Under the gazes of many ninth-level experts and forces inside and outside the floating city, Avis bowed gracefully, and his tone suddenly rose.
"Today, I am honored to introduce to you a new resistance organization - [Circle of Truth]. As a ceremony to mark the debut of the organization, I will present you with a great gift!"
Sensing the slight ripples produced by the web of fate, Avis's will penetrated deep into the scepter and communicated with a green dot outside the city that had been dormant in the sea.
Thus, under the astonished gazes of many Ninth Orders, the sea level near the city suddenly began to tremble unusually.
A dark shadow quickly emerged from the sea. The next moment, an extremely large blue-gold metal arm, carrying countless mottled seaweed and shellfish, suddenly stretched out from the sea!
With a thunderous sound like breaking through the air, a huge metal statue as big as a mountain tore through the sea and returned to the sky.
The clouds parted on both sides of it, and the silver and purple moonlight shone on its surface, shining with flowing brilliance. The oppressive and terrifying magical fluctuations made the ninth level who was maintaining the time and space blockade in the distance change color.
At this moment, the forbidden weapon from the ancient golden age showed its power to this new era for the first time.
