Neris heard Salin's voice and was shocked. She was glad that she only released three thousand demons and didn't go after the enemy soldiers.
She was afraid that Salin would be unhappy if the demons destroyed too much.
The three thousand soldiers were summoned back to Demon Purgatory. Neris grabbed Isabella's belt, turned into a demon, and flew into the air. The sky suddenly became gloomy, and huge dark clouds shrouded the entire city.
Nelis flew towards Jason's snake, but Jason urged the snake to rush to the east of the city.
It was going to rain. Lightning was brewing five thousand meters in the sky.
The lightning wasn't natural. Instead, it was caused by the energy waves before the Magic Tower collapsed, creating a huge thunderstorm.
Shika summoned her spirit beast. The spirit beast was now about a hundred meters long. She said to Jason, "Teacher, this thing isn't afraid of lightning."
Jason was curious too. He sent the snake back to the summoning space and jumped onto Shika's spirit beast with Salin. At this time, Neris also arrived. Salin focused on recording this moment with the crystal. Clouds and mist were everywhere five thousand meters up in the sky, and a huge energy was being nurtured. However, this energy wasn't targeted at anyone. Soul beasts flying in the clouds and mist wouldn't attract lightning.
In Pompei City, the soldiers and residents were in a huge panic. Magicians had fled, and the noble bureaucracy under Grand Duke Pompei was useless. The minor nobles didn't know that disaster was coming. They just hid in their homes and didn't dare to come out.
The ten floors of the Magic Tower in the center of the city released countless energy currents. They surrounded the Magic Tower and completely sealed it. In the nine floors of the Magic Tower, a fiery red bead appeared in the teleportation circle. This fiery red bead floated above the Teleportation Array, constantly rotating.
In the teleportation circle below, another one-meter-long elemental creature appeared — a Wind Swallow.
The Wind Swallow dived into the fiery red bead. The fiery red bead quickly expanded, filling up all nine floors of the Magic Tower, and it was still expanding outwards.
The foundation of the 10-story Mage Tower went deep into the ground. This Alchemy City Mage Tower had a metal pillar that was more than a thousand meters long, reaching the shallowest part of the earth. The temperature here was already quite high, and they were still far away from the magma. However, after the red bead expanded, white fire elements shot down from the metal pillar.
This white elemental flow broke through the veins of the earth, causing the earth to tremble. Rocks continuously cracked open, and the temperature became higher and higher. The elemental flow pierced through the earth, and several kilometers underground, underground fire spewed out, melting the metal pillars. Even the mageweaths on the metal pillars were useless.
Pang Peicheng, on the other hand, was built on a shallow lava lake.
Because the geological structure was very stable, and the rock layer was thick enough, there should not have been any danger. However, the sorcerers of Alchemy City had done something in advance. They pierced through the rock layer and could trigger the underground fire at any time.
"Lightning started to form around Shika's soul beast and fell to the ground. Most of the lightning disappeared before it hit the ground. Salin's Elemental Eyes looked directly at lightning for the first time. He watched in fascination. The lightning formed in the clouds was even more powerful than his family emblem, but the speed at which it dissipated was a thousand times faster.
If this energy could be used, the energy from a thunderstorm would be enough to destroy any city, including Holy Rock City.
Jason looked at the changes in the 10-story Mage Tower and sighed. "The people of the Elemental Hand are still so ruthless. They don't leave any room for negotiation. If not for this, the sorcerers of the Devil's Horn and Seriger Island wouldn't be in such a mess with the Elemental Hand, and Alchemy City wouldn't be facing a crisis. "
"Facing a crisis?" Salin didn't understand. In his eyes, Alchemy City was still indestructible.
"Yes. The Iron Blood Duke wants to deal with Alchemy City. He hired Persius to keep invading the south. Now, Lianyun City's power has expanded to more than a thousand miles, and all of them are small cities along the coast. My people sent back news that Persius has many Predators under his command. I'm afraid there are more than five thousand of them. "
"Five thousand Predators!" Although Salin had more than ninety thousand Ancient Warriors, he could still control less than a thousand. And in the future, the number he could control would definitely not exceed ten thousand.
These Level Nine Ancient Warriors, if commanded well, would definitely be the supreme military force on the Myers Continent. With his current strength, three to five hundred Level Nine Warriors couldn't do anything to him. But if five thousand Level Nine Warriors could fly, he could only escape.
Persius was probably a Level Ten expert, right?
Salin felt very uncomfortable when he thought of this sorcerer who modified his body to be half alchemy machine. In order to obtain power, he could even give up his human body. If this person went to extremes, would it cause serious problems?
The Level Ten Mage Tower shook violently, and rain began to fall from the sky. The dense raindrops, carried by the wind elements, washed the entire Panpei City. The people in the city still didn't know that doomsday was coming.
With a loud bang, the Mage Tower exploded. The fire elements inside expanded into a huge fireball with a diameter of one mile. Salin saw the violent energy rush into the sky, forming layers of ring-shaped energy rings that kept spreading outwards. The energy of the fire elements spread out, and everywhere it passed, all living things turned into dust. Buildings made of metal and rock were scorched by the high temperature. Some melted, and some were blown away by the wind elements.
"Vicious indeed!" Salin's heart was pounding. If he tried to stop it, the Destiny Puppet would probably be destroyed at the core of the explosion. Whether he could survive or not depended entirely on luck.
Everything within a radius of five hundred meters from the core of the explosion would be destroyed. Even if he used ordinary magic skills to save images, he would still be affected.
The Elemental Hand would probably announce to the public that he destroyed Panpei City.
"The Elemental Hand won't leave anything they can't get to others," Jason explained to Salin.
"Master, this Alchemy City …"
"You must be curious. The sorcerers of Alchemy City usually protect the civilians. Why would they do something like this?"
"No, I understand. Protecting the civilians is a strategy of Alchemy City to restrict other professions and forces. But what would destroying Panpei City bring them? I was the one who did what happened in Iron Wall City. I don't care about such accusations. "
"The first reason is that it might kill you. The second reason is that if you don't die, you will be afraid of such power. In the future, you will be restrained. This is a show of force. "
"Hmph!" Salin snorted heavily. More than half of the city below had been reduced to ruins. Pompeii City was huge, with a diameter of nearly eight miles. However, the explosion of a ten-story Mage Tower could only have been caused by a spell above level-13. Moreover, where the Mage Tower disappeared, magma was already shooting into the sky, shooting up to a height of a thousand meters.
Torrential rain and fire intertwined, turning Panpei City into hell on earth.
The rainwater was disintegrated by the power of the elements, which instead fueled the fire. Even without this result, the places where the magma fell were still a mess of death and injury.
Panpei City was high, which was good for defense. Now that the magma was pouring down from above, there was no place for the people of Panpei City to hide.
Salin felt a little sad. When he and Rex had first arrived here, he had loved this city so much.
The rich smell of life, the beautiful buildings, the ancient history. But now, under the effect of magic, everything would disappear and become a part of history.
The stone tablets that recorded the names of the heroes, the murals that fixed the scenes of ancient battles, were all destroyed. The earth was still shaking. With the ruins of the Mage Tower as the center, it split into two sides.
The entire Panpei City cracked. The temperature of the underground fire evaporated the clouds high in the sky, forming an even more intense flow of elements.
Thunder and lightning roared. Salin saw humans running wildly in the city, trying to escape, but they couldn't escape the burning of the underground fire.
"You really want to change this result, don't you?" Jason looked at his student and found that Salin's eyes couldn't bear it.
"Yes. I was thinking, did I learn magic just for myself? Millions of people will die when this happens. "
"Didn't you say you don't care?"
"No, I care. When I destroyed Iron Wall City, I gave those people time to escape. But the Elemental Hand doesn't give them any chance of survival. I only kill enemies, not the Elemental Hand! "
"Salin, it's good that you don't like to kill randomly, but you'll understand sooner or later that killing enemies and killing irrelevant people are actually not much different," Jason said calmly. He had seen many magic images passed down from ancient times.
Sometimes, a single battle could destroy an entire plane. What was destroyed before him was just a city.
"How?"
"Every life has its own fate. The fate of these people of Grand Duke Panpei is linked to Grand Duke Panpei. Although they have no choice, they are innocent. But who isn't innocent? Salin, let me tell you a true story. "
Jason stood on the back of the spirit beast and watched the lightning strike in the distance. Seeing that no one was close to the spirit beast, he was no longer worried. Taking advantage of this time, he told Salin something he knew.
"In an incomparably cold and gloomy plane, there are many living beings struggling to survive. In this plane, there is an expert who swore to change the state of this plane. He used 128,000 years to ignite his Divine Flame, and then another 300,000 years to become a Divine Spirit of this plane. The path he chose was to use his life to protect this plane. But after he became a Divine God, this plane transformed into his Divine Kingdom."
"In the end, this plane collapsed?"
"No, as long as the God is alive, the God Kingdom will not be destroyed. However, he became the Sun God and had to drive the Sun Chariot over the God Kingdom every day to provide enough energy for the God Kingdom so that the farmers can plant and the creatures can reproduce."
"There are Gods who are selfless?"
