Irina, who thought that she would not be able to escape death, was still in a daze when a light shield rose around her body and blocked the green liquid that splattered everywhere.
"It's Xi!" Meg's eyes lit up. Seeing that Irina was safe and sound, his heavy heart was instantly relieved.
With a wave of his hand, the longsword returned to his hand.
In this world, it was his first time hearing such a beautiful gunshot.
It was a precise and clean shot that perfectly matched the feeling that Xi gave him.
A five-star battleship appeared in the void. The giant railgun at the front of the battleship was rapidly charging at Cthulhu. The three main cannons were also aimed at Cthulhu.
"What is that?!" Noah slowly stood up and looked at the giant steel battleship floating in the air in disbelief.
"No matter what it is, the good news is that it is at least on our side," Melante also swallowed and said softly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The giant cannon began to roar.
The giant cannonball pushed by the railgun crashed into Cthulhu that was floating in the air. Its mountain-like body was pushed back a lot before it exploded.
The terrifying explosion wave turned all the ancient corpses within a few hundred meters into ashes.
The purple-striped griffin had already turned around and flew out, but it was still pushed back a thousand meters by the aftermath of the explosion.
"What terrifying power. This giant steel beast is actually so terrifying!" Noah was in a daze.
Meg also retreated with his sword. This was a concentrated bombardment from a star battleship of an advanced civilization. He did not want to be caught in the crossfire.
In just a few seconds, a round of bombardment was completed.
The mountain-like Cthulhu was blown a thousand meters away. Its body was charred black and there were many holes on its bat wings.
The ancient corpses within a thousand meters were also turned into charred skeletons.
"Gu gu gu gu —"
Cthulhu let out a series of incomprehensible roars at the giant battleship. It activated the ancient corpses to attack the giant battleship and Meg's group again.
Tens of thousands of ancient corpses rushed over and almost piled up together.
Cthulhu flapped its wings and soared into the sky. The holes on its wings were quickly mended, and in the blink of an eye, it was as good as new. It flew toward the battleship as well.
"Come up. We can't kill him. Let's leave this place first." Xi's cold voice rang in Meg's ears. A passage was opened in the cabin.
"Ah Zi, go in through the tunnel!" Meg jumped onto the purple-striped gryphon that flew to his side. He then approached Irina, grabbed her waist, and plunged into the passageway of the 5-star warship.
The fully charged arrowhead cannon fired another electromagnetic cannon at Cthulhu. At the same time, it dropped several cluster bombs. With the recoil of the electromagnetic cannon, it instantly pulled away from Cthulhu, tore through the void, and left this place.
Meg heaved a sigh of relief as he watched the mushroom cloud rise from the ice field. He felt as if he had just survived a disaster.
"This is too scary …" Noah slumped to the ground. His entire body was drenched in sweat as if he had collapsed.
The rare thing was that he was still holding the 'Buddha jumps over the wall' in his arms. The jar actually did not shatter.
Melander was also panting heavily. Although he had seen countless deaths in his life, he did not want to die in the hands of Cthulhu. Even if it was his corpse, he did not want to fall into its hands.
At this moment, he finally felt how ridiculous he was. He had actually been trying to find Cthulhu and kill it for hundreds of years.
Irina came to Meg's side and reached out to hold his hand. She asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. It's just a small injury." Meg shook his head and looked at the wound on his arm that was cut by Rankster's spear.
"What is this?" Irina asked as she cast a healing spell on Meg.
This was a spacious and empty room. The four walls were made of steel, and there was only transparent glass that faced the outside world.
"She saved us," Meg said.
Irina was deep in thought, and did not ask any more questions.
Right at this moment, the door at the side opened, and a woman in white tights walked out of the operation cabin.
Noah and Melante turned around and looked at her in surprise. Then, they fell unconscious.
"I will erase their memories," Xi said to Meg before her gaze landed on Irina.
"This is my wife, someone who should know about this and be able to keep it a secret," Meg introduced.
"Thank you for saving me." Irina looked at Xi and thanked her.
If Xi had not appeared earlier, Cthulhu's tentacles would have pierced her heart.
Xi nodded slightly and withdrew her hand.
"Cthulhu controls many ancient corpses. I'm afraid this ice field will become the source of its soldiers. These fearless and numerous ancient corpses will bring a terrible calamity to the Norland Continent." Meg looked at Xi with a grave expression. "Perhaps the Ancient Ones have a way to kill it?"
"Cthulhu is immortal. We can only try to reseal it. Even the Ancient Ones can't kill it." Xi shook his head.
Meg's heart was heavy. Xi and the Ancient Ones' most advanced battleship still could not kill Cthulhu. This was not good news.
It would not be easy to reseal it.
"The Ancient Ones once swore that they would not enter the Norland Continent on a large scale. You can only rely on yourselves to resist Cthulhu and the zombie horde it controls." Xi shook his head.
"No way?" Meg raised his brow.
The strength of an ancient corpse could not be underestimated. It probably retained about 60% of its strength, and it was fearless under Cthulhu's control. It was an absolutely loyal death warrior.
It was still unclear how many ancient corpses Cthulhu controlled. If it was a million-strong army, even the entire Roth Empire would not be able to stop them from going south.
"Stopping the ancient corpse army is the key, but killing or resealing Cthulhu is the root of the problem." Irina pondered. "Moreover, we did not see Josh today, but today's arrangement seems to be his doing."
Xi nodded. "When Cthulhu was sealed back then, it was cut into two. Its head was sealed in the center of the seal, and its lower half was sealed under the Sky Island.
Its head is better at spiritual control. These ancient corpses are not controlled by the lower half of its body. It is more likely that the recorded head is controlling that puppet, and then indirectly controlling it. "
"If we miss it today, it will not be easy to find it in this vast ice field in the future." Meg frowned.
"I left a location tracker on it. It can determine its location." Xi raised her hand to raise a virtual screen. A red dot was moving quickly.
"But the problem now is not where it is, but how to reseal it and find the 'brain' that really controls the ancient corpses."
Meg looked at Xi's virtual screen and nodded. "As long as we can determine its location, the sealing spell formation can be solved, and we can also think of a way to reseal it.
However, the most important thing now is to unite all the races of the Norland Continent and quickly build an alliance to resist the zombies and stop the ancient corpses from going south. "
The advanced civilizations were ultimately unreliable. They could only rely on themselves to save the Norland Continent.
The 5-star warship stopped 250 kilometers away from Rodu.
Xi used hypnosis to erase part of Noah and Melander's memories, and then let Meg and the rest leave.
"Don't come over!" Noah suddenly sat up from the griffin's back. His forehead was covered in cold sweat.
He looked around and met the gaze of Meg, who was squatting in front of him. He then turned around abruptly and saw Melander, who was slowly waking up beside him. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.
"This … What's going on?" Melante sat up and patted his dizzy head.
Previously, they encountered Cthulhu on the ice field and were in a desperate situation. When they were about to be swallowed, he was suddenly attacked and fainted. After that, he could not remember anything.
"We were lucky to escape." Meg threw two water bottles to them. "But we were not very lucky. Cthulhu controlled the ancient corpses on the ice field, and his strength increased tremendously. He might invade the south at any time. We have to build an alliance to stop him before he makes his move."
Noah tilted his head back and drank half a bottle of water. He looked at his hand, and then looked around. He was a little lost. "Did my 'Buddha jumps over the wall' … drop?"
