The land of Eeofol should be said to be the most barren and harsh region in all of Ashan.
In the entire territory of Eeofol, there were a total of sixty-seven volcanoes of various sizes, and more than half of them were relatively active. Back then, when the demons wanted to gain a foothold in Ashan, Eeofol was their ideal choice. Especially because they needed to build a city, they detonated many volcanoes, causing magma to spray and poisonous gas to spread to transform the environment suitable for demons to survive.
Overall, the entire geology of the Eeofol region was actually very fragile …
The reason why Ur-Hekal was chosen as the base camp of the demon camp was that there were six large volcanoes within forty kilometers of Ur-Hekal. The volcanoes erupted all year round, filling this place with the smell of magma and sulfur. The scorching heat and poisonous gas continued to spread here, and the environment here was the closest to the Abyss!
The moment Roy pressed the controller in his hand, the first sounds were naturally from the six volcanoes around Ur-Hekal.
Roy spared no effort to create a large number of Doom Mushrooms (this name is better than nuclear mushrooms, so it belongs to me). Before the alliance army entered Eeofol, Roy had arranged for people to place these Doom Mushrooms in all the volcanoes in Eeofol and created an overall control button so that these Doom Mushrooms could be detonated by Roy's magic power.
A Doom Mushroom had a yield of two thousand tons. What did it mean when it exploded? It was a tremendous force that could flatten an area of ten kilometers! And when all these Doom Mushrooms detonated in the already boiling volcanoes, what would the consequences be?
A loud rumble spread throughout the entire battlefield, causing all the alliance army to jump in fright and stop moving. They did not know where the sound came from. They seemed to be fine at the moment, but after hearing the sound, for some reason, they felt a strong sense of uneasiness in their hearts.
"W-what happened?"
"Did the demon lord attack? But I don't seem to see the light of magic … "
"The direction of the sound seems to be very far …"
The allied forces discussed among themselves. It had been more than a minute since they heard the sound. Just as they were feeling uneasy, one of the allied forces soldiers discovered that the ground … seemed to be shaking?
Soon after, more and more people felt the earth trembling, which meant that the trembling was growing rapidly. In just a few seconds, the trembling turned into a violent shaking comparable to a magnitude 8 earthquake. Many of the allied soldiers could not stand still in their panic and fell directly to the ground. They were also dizzy from the shaking.
The warhorses of the Holy Knights were also neighing in panic. They had been tamed to be very obedient, and after a few jolts, they threw off the knights on their backs and ran away into the distance. Not only the warhorses, but also the domesticated animals of other races that were used as mounts. The battlefield suddenly became chaotic, and people were thrown off their horses.
In the sky, some birds living in Eeofol were flying in large groups. They let out all kinds of shrill cries and quickly flew out of Eeofol.
At this moment, the trembling of the earth suddenly subsided, and the entire battlefield became quiet. Only the cries of birds lingered in the distant sky.
The soldiers of the allied forces looked at this scene in surprise. The trembling of the earth had stopped. This was a good thing, but for some reason, they did not feel relieved. They only felt that something was suddenly gripping their hearts tightly. In this strange calm, a terrifying sense of crisis firmly gripped them.
"N-not good! Retreat! "
An elven hero was the first to react. But just as he shouted in panic, another loud rumble suddenly came!
This time, the sound was even louder and more terrifying than before. It was as if terrifying thunder had exploded in their ears, and all the alliance soldiers were deafened. This caused their ears to quiet down, leaving only the buzzing in their ears.
In this world of deafness, the alliance soldiers stared dumbfoundedly at the sky that was completely dyed red …
It came from the erupting volcanoes dozens of kilometers away. The six volcanoes erupted at the same time, and scarlet magma with black smoke soared into the sky. The immense pressure sent it hundreds of meters into the sky, and countless burning boulders splashed in all directions like fireworks. At a speed of more than three hundred kilometers per hour, they streaked across the sky with billowing smoke, looking like a flower of destruction.
The dragons and angels, who had been flying high in the sky, looked further away. They were horrified to discover that not only were the volcanoes around Ur-Hekal erupting, but they could also see magma flames soaring into the sky in places further away. In the east, west, south, north, and every direction, they could see red clouds.
With the eruption of the volcanoes, a greater earthquake than before followed closely. Under the charred ground of Eeofol, it seemed as though some terrifying creature was stirring and churning. The ground was violently undulating and squeezing.
An enormous crack first appeared on the plain in front of Ur-Hekal. It tore through the fragile or hard ground all the way and quickly spread forward, continuously branching into tributaries. The appearance of this crack brought about a bottomless valley gap. All the alliance soldiers blocking its path screamed as they were devoured by the gap.
The cracks also spread in the direction of Ur-Hekal. The southwest side was affected by the cracks, and half of the city sank.
"Retreat!!!"
No one knew which hero of the Alliance Army let out such a heart-wrenching cry on the battlefield. This time, it was finally heard clearly by the Alliance Army who had just recovered their hearing. When they came back to their senses, they threw down the weapons in their hands and ran back without thinking.
However, under such a huge geological disaster, how could they escape? Moreover, the alliance army had already arranged themselves densely on the battlefield because of their advantage in numbers. With so many people, how far could they run in a short time?
Screams and rumbles interweaved and continuously echoed on the battlefield. In just over a minute, more than 200,000 people were engulfed by the cracked ground.
What was even more terrifying was that no matter how they ran, the ground around them kept cracking. This unimaginably enormous earthquake did not just spread around Ur-Hekal but … spread throughout Eeofol!
The land creatures that were running on the ground were now facing a disaster. Even existences like the Behemoth Behemoth and the Titan Giant screamed as they were swallowed. Only the flying creatures were not affected and were relatively safe.
But … this safety only lasted until a Giant Dragon was hit in the head by a volcanic rock from the eruption …
What the volcanic eruption brought was not only a doomsday-like earthquake but also a large amount of poisonous smoke and rock cannonballs flying everywhere. These rock cannonballs of various sizes carried immense kinetic energy and crossed dozens of kilometers in a short time and splashed on the battlefield. Therefore, the flying creatures also welcomed a catastrophe.
A gryphon unfortunately collided with a flying rock that weighed about two tons. After the rock brushed past it, half of the gryphon's body disappeared, along with the gryphon rider on its back. The gryphon that was left with only half of its body fell to the ground in a circle, crashing into an elven ranger who was running for his life, turning the ranger into a pile of bloody biscuits.
A red dragon kept flapping its wings and flying forward. It hit several smaller flying rocks in succession. Although it was not as miserable as the griffin thanks to the protection of hard dragon scales, it was still smashed by the immense kinetic energy and rolled a few times in the air. Just as it adjusted its flying posture and was about to continue flying forward, an enormous rock cannonball about a thousand tons hit its head and smashed it down from the sky …
The angels were also fleeing, but they were still smart. They used holy light magic to buff themselves with shields and then rushed forward with the shields. In addition, they were smaller and more agile, so not many of them were shot down. But at this moment, volcanic ash rolled over and drowned the entire battlefield. In the thick smoke, the surroundings suddenly became pitch black, and the visible range did not even exceed one meter. Thus, the angels immediately lost their sense of direction. Many angels flew and bumped into their allies, knocking them down with them.
Isabel, Céhirtazi, and Gadakos were also running out at this time. Isabel was a little better, but the Gold Dragon Queen, Céhirtazi, was hit the most times during the flight because of her huge body. Fortunately, she was powerful, so she did not overturn. As for the Titan King, Gadakos, there was a very sad news. He could not fly …
Although this Titan King could also transform into lightning and fly, this kind of incarnation did not mean that he could directly fly out of Eeofol. Instead, he would stop every once in a while before being able to move forward again. This ability was a bit like the flame teleportation of demons, and Gadakos's lightning teleportation.
Technical limitations were one thing. What was even worse was that after the first teleportation, Gadakos had directly teleported more than sixty kilometers away. But the moment his incarnation returned, a huge hole had appeared under his feet due to the earth tearing apart. Gadakos only had time to let out an unwilling roar before falling from the large crack … It was not that he would die.
With his unparalleled physical strength, he would be fine even if he fell from a high place. But the problem was that the crust below was still squeezing because of the intense energy. If he could not climb back up before the crack closed, then the dignified Titan King might be buried underground forever …
