[The first chapter, today's fourth chapter.]
The woman trapped in the chains had eyes like lightning, and they really shot out flashing cold light, stabbing randomly in the void.
Nicholas saw this and reminded Salin from behind, "Master, this woman is scary. You can't fight her in close combat. Her eyes shoot out attacks like God's Punishment, but I don't know why the attack range is so short. "
"I know. The chains restrict her. If we just stand here, she can't do anything to us," Salin replied calmly. Although he didn't understand what the light in the woman's eyes meant, he could tell that all the power released by the woman was restricted within the range of the altar. The entire sacrificial altar was like a completely sealed cage.
But could Salin not get close? Of course not. This woman was an existence like the Dread Angel. Her power had reached the peak of this plane. She might have some mental problems, but that didn't stop her from being the strongest person in this world. If he didn't kill such a person while she was trapped in the chains and let her get rid of the chains, the entire continent would be doomed.
This woman thought of herself as Goddess Myers. Salin couldn't let her go out and spread her faith. If that happened, the power of the believers would be intercepted by her, and how would the Goddess resurrect?
Although Salin wanted to break the contract with the Goddess, that wasn't a sure thing. Right now, he had to carry out the plan step by step. If this thing escaped, it wouldn't just be a matter of breaking the contract. This thing would …
Salin thought about it. This thing would kill all the believers of the God of Light. It seemed good, but she still thought of herself as a Goddess. From this thing's actions just now, she wasn't as easy to talk to as Goddess Myers. She was extremely murderous. If this thing patronized his Metatlin City, would his city be able to defend?
After a simple analysis, Salin knew that he couldn't defend it.
Let's just kill her here! Magicians didn't need too many reasons. Salin's mood calmed down. He realized that too often, everything he did was really arranged by fate. If you don't do it, you won't have another chance.
However, this woman who thought of herself as Goddess Myers wasn't easy to deal with. Salin didn't want his elemental creatures to take risks, so he manipulated the Stone Soldiers created by the Demonic God Set and crawled along the sides of the tunnel. Below the tunnel was a huge, bottomless crack.
A distance of one kilometer wasn't the limit of Salin's mental strength. The stone soldier quickly crawled through the tunnel towards the altar. These Stone Soldiers had no intelligence. They fought purely based on instinct or Salin's commands.
The six stone soldiers stood in front of the altar. The chained woman's eyes shrunk as she stared at the six stone soldiers. Under Salin's control, the Stone Soldier condensed an Earth Element Battle Axe in its hand and threw it out.
The six elemental axes whizzed through the air and chopped down on the invisible wall at the edge of the altar. The sound of metal clashing rang out incessantly, and the six axes dissipated one after another, disintegrating into earth elements and disappearing without a trace.
With one look, Salin knew that the stone soldier couldn't do anything to the woman on the altar. He was about to summon the Stone Soldier back. After all, it was an elemental summon that could last for three hours. It would be a pity to give it up. Unexpectedly, dozens of blue humanoid creatures swiftly pounced out from the crack in the ground opposite the temple and surrounded the six stone soldiers.
The six stone soldiers condensed an Earth Element Battle Axe in their hands again. Their bodies expanded, and they quickly turned into nine-meter-tall combat weapons. However, more blue humanoid creatures pounced out from the crack and used the strange weapons in their hands to leave huge wounds on the stone soldiers.
"Master, that woman is practicing!" Neris shouted. She realized that the blue humanoid creatures were also at the standard of level-nine, but their attack power was pitifully low.
"I know." Salin's expression was as cold as ice. He personally controlled the stone soldiers to fight, so of course he knew what the other side was doing. The woman on the altar was clearly using the stone soldiers to familiarize herself with the fighting style. Just like him, the woman was also controlling the level-nine blue creatures to fight, but her control wasn't very good.
However, this woman's level was very high, and she learned very quickly. If she continued to fight, her control would rapidly improve. Thinking of this, Salin sighed softly and gave up on controlling the six stone soldiers. The six stone soldiers immediately ignored the level-nine creatures and turned to pounce on the altar.
The woman on the altar looked extremely happy. She let go of the altar's defense and let the stone soldiers rush up. Her eyes emitted a cold light, and the six stone soldiers were directly cut into pieces. She opened her mouth and absorbed the rich earth element into her stomach.
Salin frowned. The cold light in the woman's eyes was too sharp. He really couldn't get close to her. This place was a mile away from the altar, and the alchemy crossbow couldn't pose a threat to her. Salin unconsciously took out the family crest in his hand.
Not to mention a mile, even if it was twenty miles away, the family crest could still shoot it to death. The problem was that after the family crest's lightning attack, there wouldn't be any residue left on the altar. Such a powerful soul and body material would be wasted in vain.
More importantly, Salin felt that this woman definitely had some relationship with the goddess Myers. Perhaps he could get some valuable clues from this woman's soul. He signed a contract with the goddess Myers, the astrologer Cain, and the heroic spirits in the Royal City's cemetery.
The three contracts were interrelated. But each of them was related to the resurrection of the goddess Myers. How to break these three contracts was the most important thing in Salin's mind. The key was the goddess Myers.
If the disappearance of the continent's power was really related to the goddess Myers, Salin definitely couldn't let her resurrect. Even if Myers resurrected, he had to find a way to kill her again.
If Nelis's Fallen Purgatory was completely refined, it could trap this woman. The problem was that this woman's current power had exceeded the limits of the Fallen Purgatory.
"Master, contact the princess," Nelis reminded Salin from behind. Salin suddenly realized that he still had a weapon that he had left with Rex to suppress the situation — the miniature magic cannon.
The power of the miniature magic cannon could definitely kill this woman in front of him. Salin raised his head and looked at the broken dome. Only the area with a radius of a hundred meters above his head was supported by six huge stone pillars. There were no cracks, and they were all sealed by the rich earth element. The surroundings of the temple had been completely destroyed.
The earth was trembling and collapsing. It was impossible to set up a teleportation matrix in such an environment.
The teleportation matrix needed to be set up in a very stable environment. Both astrologers and mages knew that the earth wasn't fixed, but was constantly moving within a certain range. All the coordinate points actually had four coordinate attributes. The coordinates of the three-dimensional space, together with the function of the flow of time, could form a relatively accurate teleportation coordinate.
In a situation where the earth was constantly trembling, to teleport an item would only cause the item to disintegrate in space.
"Heh …" Salin took out the dimensional stone and allowed the six stone statues to return to their original forms, allowing the dome above to collapse. The Water Ripple Shield unfurled and deflected the falling boulders away. Salin took out the Elemental Magic Tower and placed it beneath his feet.
The group entered the Elemental Magic Tower, and Salin began to set up a teleportation matrix inside. There was a fixed teleportation matrix here. What Salin needed to do was to determine the coordinates of Port Royal.
First, he contacted Port Royal through the sound transmission matrix. Rex was urgently summoned to the temporary magic tower by her mages.
Salin immediately asked for the miniature magic cannon. Rex said in front of the sound transmission matrix, "Wait a moment, teleport immediately. Give me the coordinates."
Salin was glad that his location wasn't as perverted as the Abyss King's City, and could communicate with the sea. Rex worked quickly, but setting up a teleportation matrix was also a troublesome matter. Even if she carried countless materials with her, it would still take at least six Magic Shooters to slowly set up the matrix.
Salin waited patiently in the Elemental Magic Tower. On the distant altar, there were new changes.
Seeing Salin take out the Elemental Magic Tower, the chained woman became more and more anxious. Her body moved the chains, and the entire altar trembled violently. The cracks on the ground grew larger and larger.
Setting up a teleportation matrix required time, and it wasn't something that could be set up immediately with money. Salin had no other choice but to kill this woman with his family crest. Letting Nelis rush up would probably be the same. Around the altar, more and more rank 9 creatures appeared, all of them blue humanoid creatures.
In the shrine opposite, the ground had collapsed, and the altar was soaked in seawater. It floated in mid-air and did not sink. More and more blue humanoid creatures crawled out of the cracks. This time, they weren't phantoms, but real bodies of flesh and blood. Salin was shocked. The number of rank 9 creatures gathered in the shrine had already exceeded a thousand!
The woman on the altar began to silently chant some unknown sentence. The rank 9 creatures below the altar showed confusion in their eyes, and they began to walk up the altar one by one. The woman opened her mouth and sucked a rank 9 creature into her mouth. The rank 9 creature turned into a ball of blue liquid under the strong suction force.
Salin's Elemental Eye could clearly see that every time the woman absorbed a rank 9 creature, her own power would increase a little. The rank 9 creatures below the altar were still increasing. Salin didn't know if the woman would have the power to break free of the chains after absorbing thousands of rank 9 creatures.
"Master, I remember now. Those chains are the Chains of Corruption. If this woman doesn't regain her sanity, she definitely can't break free!"
"What's the Chains of Corruption?"
"It's something that the gods punish traitors with. If the faith in your heart disappears, this chain will trap you, and you definitely can't break free."
"Definitely can't break free?" Salin was puzzled. If that was the case, then why did the woman on the altar do this? Thousands of rank 9 creatures would definitely pose a fatal threat to him.
