Amber said she "caught" a Typhon outside the castle.
However, in fact, the word "catch" is not appropriate - the other party appeared in front of the castle guards openly and walked into the hall with great cooperation after revealing his identity.
A tall woman wearing black high-end maid clothing, with long black hair, was brought to Gawain. Gawain was sure that he had never seen this person anywhere, but he He knew that the person who appeared in front of him at such a critical moment was by no means an ordinary person - even if she looked like just a palace maid.
"She suddenly appeared in front of the guard and said that she was sent by Rosetta Augustus to see you," Amber reported the situation on the side. "She seemed to have walked through the entire Blockade..."
Gawain nodded and looked at the black-haired lady: "What is your name?"
"Diana, serve as a maid. "To the Augustus family," the black-haired lady looked at Gawain with extremely calm eyes, "my master asked me to come to see you."
For a person who calls herself a "maid", Her attitude seemed too indifferent and relaxed, which made Gawain couldn't help but become curious, but he was even more curious about the mission of the other party: "What did Rosetta send you to do?"
"Do nothing," the woman who called herself Diana said calmly, "Master told me to appear in front of you, and you will judge the rest."
"Nothing. If you don't do it..." Gawain's pupils shrank slightly, and he seemed to understand something, but then he frowned and stared at the other person, "So, you are the 'signal' that Rosetta Augustus released to me. …But it’s still too risky. Even if you don’t do anything, this signal is too risky…”
“It doesn’t matter,” Diana shook her head calmly, “As long as I don’t say anything redundant. If I do, I will not enter the sight of the gods - because I have no heart."
"No heart?" Gawain looked at the other party with some doubts, but just as he was about to ask something, there was a low voice. A buzzing sound like thunder rolling in the distant clouds suddenly came from high in the east, interrupting his next words and attracting everyone's attention - the officers near the windows subconsciously looked up to where the sound was coming from. The direction from which they came, and then the changes between heaven and earth in the direction of Winterfort appeared in front of everyone.
Beam after beam of light cut through the darkness brought by the snowstorm. Under the strange starry sky, with the main peak of Winterfort as the center, the tops of more than ten peaks rose with magical flames that penetrated the sky and the earth. Pillar, the powerful magic power tore apart the gathering clouds, stirred the edge of the blizzard, and continuously burst out large-scale lightning in the high sky. At the foot of the mountain peaks, between the vast plains and hills, a sheet of The "giant network" with magic veins as its threads is lighting up little by little!
Amber looked at the brilliance from a distance, and she finally saw some clues from the extending trajectory of the rays of light - that was where the Typhon people gathered at the defense lineGo up to the barracks! It's the giant network formed by connecting the garrison points of hundreds of thousands of extraordinary beings!
She opened her eyes wide and turned her head suddenly to tell Gawain what she had discovered, but before she could speak, a violent flash of light suddenly came from the distance: among the dozen or so people who lit up their beams, Among the peaks, the beam of light from one of the peaks suddenly doubled in size. A bright ball of light rose up from there and flew quickly to the sky along the beam. After a delay of just a few seconds, the ball of light rose again. It penetrated the clouds that had been torn into shape, and hit the storm in the center of the plain at a nearly vertical angle, hitting the place where the God of War descended!
The extraordinary vision allowed Gawain to see the scene in the distance more clearly than others. He watched the ball of light rise into the sky, watched it fall towards the storm, and watched it in mid-air. The explosion exploded, tearing apart the curtain formed by the blizzard, and the dazzling light stream washed over the earth like a waterfall. After a brief moment of astonishment, he finally recognized what it was: "That is... the Creation of Annihilation?!" < /p>
He suddenly turned to the lady who called herself "Diana", who just met his gaze calmly: "Yes, the Creation of Annihilation - we have spent many years restoring this ancient magic ."
"Is it possible that you want to kill a god with such a 'Creation of Annihilation'?" Gawain was stunned and couldn't help but said in a questioning tone. Looking back at the distance, as expected, a majestic figure emerged little by little from the depths of the dissipating storm and fading light flow.
Diana's voice came slowly from behind him: "Obviously, this is not enough."
......
A surge of white light exploded Washing through the air like a flood, the miracle of the blizzard was quickly torn apart and neutralized to create a large hole in the face of this violent magic storm. The creation of annihilation set off a terrifying scream across the plains, which lasted for a short time. After a delay, a mushroom cloud rose into the sky - the rocks instantly vaporized, the hurricane blew away the soil and snow in the distance, and the spherical shock wave visible to the naked eye spread with the place where the God of War descended as its core.
However, as the curtain formed by the impact gradually dissipated, the majestic figure appeared in front of everyone again, still standing as tall as a mountain.
The invisible wind blew across the plain, and the armored giant stood quietly in the impact crater formed by the Creation of Annihilation. There was an iron-gray halo flowing on his body, and under the halo. There wasn't even a scratch on the armor.
Then, he slowly raised his head and looked in the direction of the "annoying ants".
There was no flesh and blood under the hollow helmet, only a chaotic and crazy light shining in the depths of the unknown material that expanded, contracted and squirmed. In that light, there was no trace of reason or compassion.
He headed towards the direction where the Typhons were stationed. After a short delay of one second, he took steps towards the main peak of Winterfort. With this heavy step, the earth began to tremble, and the air The magic boils like fire,Many insects, ants and beasts that were hiding deep underground and narrowly escaped the annihilation were driven away from their nests by great fear. They tried frantically to escape from this place, but they were burned out of life as soon as they emerged from the ground. It turned into various twisted and terrifying flesh and blood remains, and large tracts of plants fell in the wind - they escaped the torrent of magic due to their long distance, but they quickly withered and died under the pressure of the mad god.
Rosetta Augustus stood in front of the illusory wall of the Secret Hall. The terrifying scene in the distance was clearly displayed on the wall - a giant covered in iron-gray armor was stepping forward, like He marched towards Winterfort like a cold war machine. Death was the banner and military force behind him. Wherever his steps went, flames burned out of thin air, and all life was quickly harvested.
The communication crystal not far away shone with light, and the voice of the mage sentry came from it: "The first attack was ineffective! The visual target was not damaged! The target is moving towards us!"
The expression on Rosetta's face remained unchanged: "Continue, the second shot."
As he finished speaking, a white beam of light suddenly expanded over another peak near Winterfort, Another huge ball of light rose from the magic circle on the top of the mountain. After a short delay, the ball of light fell from the sky again. The iron-gray giant was once again enveloped in the shock wave and mushroom cloud caused by the big explosion.
At the same time, in the vast and continuous land of the entire Winterfort area, among the camps and outposts surging with magical light, a harsh sound suddenly sounded over the camp of a certain magician group. There was a scream, and the surge caused by the magic turbulence impacted the protective facilities of the camp. The powerful and sophisticated protective devices in the past were vulnerable to the powerful magic technology from the ancient Gondor Empire. The surge instantly penetrated the camp's protective equipment. Barrier, countless fine electric sparks rolled through the entire station like a huge wave.
Hundreds of low-level mages and their guard knights fell down one after another. Some fell into a deep coma due to exhaustion of magic power, and some were already dead on the spot.
The magic network covering the Winterhold defense line suddenly dimmed, and in front of the defense line, the mushroom cloud raised by the explosion of Annihilation Creation was quickly dissipating.
The mountain-like giant walked out of it unhurriedly, taking heavy steps, approaching the defense line composed of mortals step by step.
Several griffin scouts took off from nearby and tried to hover near the giant to observe. However, two of the knights accidentally got too close - it may also be that the two poor griffins were trapped everywhere. The terrifying pressure crushed their spirits, and they and their masters suddenly rushed uncontrollably in the direction of the giant, crashing into the giant's iron-gray armor like flying insects hitting a bell tower.
The surface of the armor that seemed to be made of metal suddenly appeared in waves, and the two gryphon knights and their mounts melted into the armor, leaving only a rust-like spot in place. .
After just half a second, even the spots disappeared.Clean and tidy.
The sentry's voice came from the crystal: "The second attack was ineffective, the target was not damaged! Keep approaching our defense line!"
Rosetta watched the illusion calmly The picture projected on the wall: "Continue."
The third light ball rose, and correspondingly, another camp on the defense line suddenly fell into darkness.
The huge mushroom cloud rose again, covering the sky and the sun, and the giant's figure was once again shrouded in the thick curtain. However, the heavy footsteps once again sounded from the depths of the explosion cloud - the earth is still there. Trembling, accompanied by this terrifying trembling, the huge iron-gray figure stepped out boldly!
Parin Winterhold stood on the tall mage tower, watching the giant in the distance that was constantly approaching Winterhold through another set of monitoring devices. This knowledgeable and brave battle mage leader felt His heart was pounding. He had never experienced such tension, fear or even despair as he did today - even without the mental pollution from the gods, the huge pressure still made him feel a little suffocated. He looked at that The giant who kept marching forward clenched his fists hard and realized that the palms and backs of his hands were all sweaty.
The creation of three annihilations! three times! Even the strongest fortress built by humans would not be safe after being bombarded by this terrible magic. However, that giant... He did not even slow down in his steps!
Parin Winterhold knows what the Creation of Annihilation is. He has personally participated in the analysis and restoration of this ancient magic, and has personally completed its last link - this is derived from the ancient Gang The terrifying power of the Duo era was once only supported by the magic of the Deep Blue Well to appear in this world. Now, Typhon's mages can rely on their unique group casting skills and huge supply of magic power to bring it back to the world.
Every creation of annihilation comes with a huge price. Hundreds of extraordinary beings will be drained, priceless crystals and gems will be burned into powder, and many people may pay. Life - this is a weapon that is not "cost-effective". When it was completed, many mages were even disappointed to think that it would be difficult to use in actual combat, but now it has been taken out and used to achieve a goal no matter what. A task that must be completed at any cost, but...can it really be completed?
The sound of swallowing came from the side. The Earl of Winterhold knew that this was the sound made unintentionally by a nervous mage officer, but at the moment he had no intention of criticizing or reminding him. He just died. Staring at the scene projected by the magic, staring at the giant figure.
Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a certain part of the giant's body.
There was a very inconspicuous black mark on the surface of the armor near the giant's shoulder armor and close to the arm - it was so inconspicuous that at first Palin Wintercastle thought it was It was just some stains, but he quickly realized: How could there be stains on the gods?
That is a crack! A real oneThe crack!
The protection of gods can be penetrated!
Parin Winterburg felt his breathing suddenly become rapid, and the mage responsible for observation and reporting not far away from him had already walked to the communication crystal. The latter reported with a hint of nervousness: " The third...the third attack was ineffective, the target was not affected..."
"The attack is effective!" The Earl of Winterhold rushed to the communication crystal like a gust of wind, and even almost killed the person responsible for reporting the situation. The mage sentry was knocked away, "Your Majesty, the third attack is effective! There are cracks in the target's armor - His protection can be penetrated!"
He reported excitedly, and What responded to him on the other side of the communication crystal was a short second of silence, and a calm voice: "Continue."
...
The image presented on the illusion wall was magically After a moment, the interference disappeared, and the giant who continued to advance appeared in front of Rosetta Augustus again.
At the feet of the giants, the "scorch marks of war" filled with death, blood and fire have spread to the edge of the Winterhold defense line.
But the giant is not without damage - there is indeed a crack in the armor on his body. Although it is inconspicuous, the crack is real.
Rosetta narrowed her eyes slightly.
Today is the Lunar New Year.
Today’s gods... are not invincible.
However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded out of thin air, saying in a very untimely manner: "On the surface, it seems that the progress is good... but it seems that the 'good cards' you have reserved are not enough to completely destroy the entire world. The defense line intercepted it."
Illusive starlight surged in the secret hall, and an empty eye floated in the air, staring at Rosetta.
"What is that spell you used... Ah, it does seem to have some power, but after all, it is still a little bit behind. To destroy a god with just these arrangements, isn't it a bit far? ?
“On the other hand…is this giant-like god really the God of War…it seems different from what I remember…”
“It’s crazy. Has His image been distorted? It's so sad, falling into madness is such a sad thing..."
Rosetta Augustus didn't seem to hear the eye nagging in his ear, he just watched calmly The scene shown on the magic projection, then raised his head and glanced at the sky on the west side.
"The fourth attack is effective, Your Majesty. The target continues to be damaged, but there is still no sign of weakening." —The target is approaching the first cordon! "
Rosetta withdrew her gaze and looked at the magical illusion projected on the wall in front of her.
"Continue. ”
