Maggie looked at the mermaids' collective redness, raised an eyebrow and smiled gently, as if she had discovered something amusing.
"Shut up! Take her down!"
The mermaid leader's face hardened with coldness, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Maggie. At his command, the surrounding mermaids pounced on Maggie like hungry tigers.
It seems they couldn't suppress the hatred stirring within them.
Maggie simply leaped up lightly, using the power of magic to dodge the group of not-so-agile mermaids, and even used one of them as a stepping stone to get a little closer to the central sun wheel.
If the mermaids hadn't surrounded her, Maggie would have tried to get closer on her own, but now that they're here, she might as well use them.
In fact, she was having some difficulty dealing with this group of mermaids. Even in her invincible state, she was only a high-level mage, which was still somewhat inferior to the powerful mermaid race before the God Era.
Fortunately, Little Ghost's training focused on escape and survival, which is why she is so adept at it now.
Maggie protested this point and was very resentful, but Roy also strongly agreed with the little ghost's plan. Since Roy didn't stand with her on this point, Maggie had no choice but to give up.
Although she could use the magic she learned using modern magical languages, without a good teacher to guide her, she encountered many unexpected problems and was quite clumsy during the learning process.
Maggie didn't have much time, so she followed the little ghost's advice.
As she thought about it, she playfully dodged the mermaids' attacks. After a while, the brainless mermaid guards realized something was wrong with Maggie and stopped attacking.
When Maggie stopped, a small hint of regret flashed in her eyes. Such precious sparring opportunities that wouldn't endanger their lives were rare, especially with so many sparring partners together. It was a real pity that they didn't continue their attack.
The mermaid leader's expression changed, seemingly not expecting Maggie to be so difficult to deal with. After a while, his ear fins began to twitch, and his eyes, which already had inhuman features, were now bloodshot, exuding a savage and violent aura.
This means that Maggie is being treated as an opponent, and a full-scale attack is being prepared.
Maggie is sometimes curious about why, apart from humans, other races retain some animalistic characteristics, while only humans...
I put all my attribute points into Mind's Eye, so skills like Berserk only appear on a few specific individuals.
"Very well, you've angered me."
The mermaid leader grinned, revealing his gleaming white shark teeth. A terrifying aura emanated from him, making him seem like a beast about to devour human flesh and blood at any moment.
"Oh? That's really... boring."
Maggie was completely unfazed by his threats and provocations, nor was she afraid of his words. She simply looked up at the Sun Wheel and estimated the distance between herself and it.
Then......
She suddenly activated her magic, using magical power as propulsion, and rapidly approached the Sun Wheel.
She didn't want to do this, but she had a vague sense of foreboding, as if the dream was about to end. Although she hadn't discussed these things with Rosette, her heart was far too weak.
Maggie couldn't guarantee that when she returned, her heart would still be alive, or would have already withered away.
So she planned to use the moment she woke up to give some of the power in her heart to it, at least to maintain its health.
From the moment Maggie made her decision to the moment she began to implement it, only a few minutes had passed without any delay or hesitation. By the time the merman leader realized what Maggie was about to do, Maggie was less than half a meter away from the Sun Wheel.
Before she could stop it, Maggie suddenly felt a tremendous suction force, frantically drawing magic and Rosette's power from her body.
If she weren't always at her peak condition, she might have been drained dry in a second.
However, the situation is not much different now; Maggie lost consciousness almost instantly.
Half a minute ago.
From afar, Rosette also saw Maggie's posture, like Chang'e flying to the moon or a moth drawn to a flame. He, who was originally confronting the red-tailed mermaid, narrowed his eyes and his gaze fell uncontrollably on Maggie.
Because she resembled a goddess about to be sacrificed to the sun, resolute and never looking back, giving people the feeling that she would go all the way even in death.
Loraslin was also unconsciously drawn to Maggie's madness mixed with divinity, and the two false gods thus stopped their battle.
The next second, Maggie, who was running towards the Sun Wheel, was like the Little Mermaid in the fairy tale. The moment she touched the wheel, she turned into a bubble that shimmered with seven colors.
"!"
Rosette nearly lost her composure, her eyes widening slightly, unable to conceal the shock in them.
Maggie dissipated quickly, and at the same time, the heart in the Sun Wheel became strong and powerful again, thumping loudly, which reached Rosette's ears.
She was like a messenger who completed a fixed task; once the task was finished, she would disappear from the spot.
Loraslin also felt the abnormality in his heart. His previously unrestrained smile froze on his face, and without the slightest hesitation, he distanced himself from Rosette.
The revitalized heart reconnected with Rosette, and like a prisoner breaking free of its cage, it caused the entire Sun Wheel to tremble violently, affecting even the massive Mermaid Kingdom.
An earthquake, approaching catastrophe and the end of the world, has begun. The mermaids, who were leisurely watching the show in the Mermaid Kingdom, have started to flee in panic. Several elderly mermaid elders have emerged from the ancient palace, their eyes trembling as they watch Rosette descend from the sky, having already retrieved his heart.
The sun wheel shattered into pieces, and the light in the sky vanished completely, turning into eternal darkness.
"I want you all to be buried with her."
Rosette's face was so dark it was almost blood-red. Although Maggie had told him that she came from the future and was invincible, she had never mentioned that she was actually dreaming and that there would be a time when she would wake up.
From his perspective, Maggie was driven to desperation by herself and this group of greedy, decadent old fogies, which led her to disappear completely like a bubble in an ancient legend.
Yes, Rosette thought Maggie was dead.
So after regaining his power, he became like an enraged god, punishing all his subjects who disobeyed his will, without hesitation.
Even if Loraslin wanted to stop it, it was too late. By the time he arrived, Rosette was surrounded by the corpses of the ancient mermaids, and thick blood was floating in the water, mixed with the seawater.
