The powerful strength of a stage-three Beyonder could ensure that Blasphemer Ecktreb and Great Knight Cold Face Barger could stay awake for extended periods of time without rest.
However, to be on standby for half a month in such an environment filled with all sorts of negative atmospheres was still a severe challenge for them.
Staring at the messy runes that did not have the slightest sense of beauty, but the divine ritual that flashed with magical light, even Great Knight Cold Face Barger, who had a cold personality, could not help but take the initiative to find a topic to ease the growing agitation in his heart.
"Even with the time scale of the ancient gods, the time needed to wake up from a deep slumber is just too long.
Thankfully, this is the absolute safety of the Clock Tower. If this were the material world, even if they discovered danger, they would not be able to react in time. Furthermore, we are still in a situation where we are actively calling for help from the outside world. "
Beside him, the Blasphemer, who was gradually leaning toward the side of Order, also did not like such a strange atmosphere. He nodded and replied to Barger.
"This is the price! The ancient gods who can survive the Epoch Changing were once great existences at the level of true gods. Their wisdom is as deep as the sea.
Deep slumber allows them, who do not have a foundation of faith in the material world, to reduce their consumption and peacefully live through the long years. Furthermore, under the situation of eliminating the influence of subjective thoughts, they can gradually adapt their bodies to the new world.
Therefore, a stable and safe hiding place is especially important. Our Fog Sea is like this, and so is the Clock Tower occupied by the Subterranean Lord.
Thankfully, when most great existences are in deep slumber, they will have their kin or even the son of an ancient god like the Azure Beast to protect them. Although the Underground Lord does not need it, his descendants should also — "
Whoosh!
However, at this moment, there was a sharp sound of air being torn apart beside them. A golden light suddenly jumped out of the void, and Barger quickly grabbed it in his hand.
Looking at the uniquely shaped golden holy sword, Barger was slightly surprised before a cold smile appeared on his face.
"Those 'processed' dregs didn't waste their value in the end. Although the final backup plan has been activated, the most basic goal has been achieved.
So what if we lose a few Great Knights? As long as we have the help of the Chaos Worm, even our enemies might become our allies. "
Now, the first mission had been completed perfectly. Now, all he needed to do was to awaken the Chaos Worm and establish the first cooperation. Then, the first merit of this trip to the Clock Tower would be his.
Just when he thought that the rest of the month would be as peaceful as the first half of the month …
Huala!
The giant skeleton kings that were standing in a circle around the mountain suddenly turned around and faced the outside at the same time. The giant swords in their hands were raised to shoulder level. This was a high-level defensive stance in the basic swordsmanship.
In the blink of an eye, he had turned from an ancient guardian to a loyal guardian.
Clearly, just by looking at the parts of their carapaces and flesh that belonged to insects, one could tell that they had long been corrupted into the dependents of the ancient gods.
Seeing this scene, the two people guarding the ritual couldn't help but be surprised.
"At this time? Why would someone come to the seventh floor? "
At this moment.
Stamina was obviously not something that these giant Skeleton Kings needed to consider.
They maintained this extremely difficult two-handed sword stance and moved their feet to change their formation under the command of a unified consciousness. Gradually, they formed a triangle arrow formation in a certain direction.
Then, they stepped forward at the same time.
Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!
The earth trembled. 364 monsters that were ten meters tall moved at the same time, like a thick and heavy city wall that was slowly advancing.
Behind them, a giant cross that was like a mountain in the sky cast a long black shadow. It was like a "killing banner" that was cast by the gods, guiding them to move forward continuously.
Unknowingly, three figures quietly appeared in front of them.
"I say, Old Graham, have you guys reached this stage? Even the core defense force that was supposed to be our helper has changed hands? If the Clock Tower escapes into the void again, the next time it appears, I'm afraid that it will be completely under the control of the insects. "
Standing at the front of the team, Milan, who was a weakling but was forced to fight against the followers of the ancient gods, could only find psychological balance with her words.
The old man, who used to be a Crown Wizard, had nothing to say except for a little bit of authority. Back then, when he was caught off guard by the 'chaos worm', it was already not easy for the [Clock Tower] to hold on until now.
Glancing at the golden crowns on the skeletons' heads, Graham let out a deep sigh.
"If the Clock Tower didn't lose its core crown the last time it appeared in the material world …"
Then, he didn't say anything more. In fact, the moment the "Chaos Worm" was able to move to a new place, the result was already decided. It was just a matter of whether it was sooner or later.
As for Elvin, he looked at the approaching group of Skeleton Kings that had both sacredness and blasphemy. He already knew where the sense of familiarity came from.
The "Frog God's Golden Crown" that he used as the energy source of the [Miracle Crown] was obviously the same as the thing on the heads of these guys. Although the design and details were different, the two main features of the crown were the same: huge and rough.
About seven or eight hundred years ago, when the [Clock Tower] appeared near the "Treasure Sea" in the material world for the last time, the battle between the two sides caused it to flow out of here, which directly led to the collapse of the situation today.
Judging from the old man's words, the crown that had the function of a wishing machine was a very important part of the ritual.
But now, anyone with a discerning eye could see that even if they put the crown back, it would be useless. Almost a thousand years of corruption had turned these Skeleton Kings into ashes.
When the distance between the two sides was about one kilometer.
As the gigantic skeletons continued to move forward, a strange and erratic song that sounded like the chirping of insects entered the ears of the three of them. Although it was a language that transcended races, the three of them could understand the meaning of the song and the sorrow hidden in the lyrics.
"The gods come from the faraway Carcosa!
Along the shore, the clouds were cut open; the yellow sun was sinking into the lake.
A long shadow was falling; it was Carcosa.
The king's tattered robes fluttered in the wind; the song was lost in the darkness of Carcosa.
My soul can no longer sing; my song is like tears that no longer flow.
Only desolation and silence remain in the lost Carcosa … "
The three adepts didn't pay much attention to this song, which they didn't know if it was a poem or a prayer. It didn't matter if it was their first time hearing it or if they had already heard it many times.
They knew very well that other than the ancient technology that was still useful, it was best not to delve too deeply into the secrets of the ancient gods if it was not necessary.
Especially before they obtained [Divinity] and some sort of "Extra-Dimensional Vision".
* Kaboom! * * Kaboom! *
Milan looked at the Skeleton Kings that were getting closer and closer, and the extremely majestic yellowish extraordinary aura, and clearly realized that each of them had surpassed the boundary of the Third Order.
Even though they had lost the "Golden Crown of the Frog God" and could no longer form a complete ritual, they were still a terrifying army that not even a Grade 4 supernatural could defeat.
So.
Milan put her hand in her pocket and casually tidied up her hair. She then quietly retreated to the back of the group.
"Although I don't have much power left, the remaining authority is enough for you to unleash your full power without being restricted by the Clock Tower. I'll leave it to you."
After Graham finished speaking, he reached out and patted Elvin's shoulder, then … Quietly retreated behind Milan.
Both of them glared at each other in disdain.
"Hahaha, I was waiting for you to say that."
Elvin laughed and waved his cloak as he stepped forward.
* Wuuuu — *
In an instant, a whistling whirlwind erupted between him and the army of Skeleton Kings. Although his cloak was fluttering in the wind, he was able to withstand the might of the Skeleton Kings with his own strength.
Compared to the Skeleton King, the Skeleton King's body was not very tall, but it was filled with calmness and confidence that even if the sky fell and the earth cracked.
When the distance between the two sides was reduced to 800 meters.
A green light suddenly lit up in the eyes of more than 300 Skeleton Kings. Then, they gradually sped up and charged at Elvin like galloping horses.
"Rumble …"
The tombstones on the ground jumped up one after another in the violent earthquake. It was as if even the ground was easily trampled by them.
Even though Elven was 1.9 meters tall in his human form, he wasn't even as tall as their calves. This scene was as comical as a herd of elephants charging at an ant.
When they were less than 100 meters away from him.
"Pa!"
Elvin then snapped his fingers.
The green clouds that connected the sky and the earth quickly spread. A tall "mountain ridge" covered in moss suddenly smashed into the ground in front of Elvin.
"Boom!"
Then, another one.
The Skeleton Kings' vanguard was mercilessly pressed down the mountain and turned into powder. Some of the follow-up troops also crashed into the mountain wall because they did not slow down in time.
"Bang!"
A pair of giant stone arms tore the clouds apart. A terrifying stone golem that was a thousand meters tall even when it bent down descended on the battlefield.
At this time, the [Super Giant Stone Golem — Mountain Giant] had been completely repaired. It was as sturdy and heavy as a towering mountain. The green vines on its back were lush, and its body was covered in cold and hard black vines like armor. The earthy yellow Transcendent light around it was like a mountain and a sea.
With the half-finished [Magnetic Ohlite] as its energy source, it was no longer as pitiful as when the Nagas drove it away. Most of its treasures had leaked out and it could not even be killed by a mere Holy Knight.
"Whoosh!"
With a [Transposition of the King Chariot], Elven brought Milan and Graham into the control room of the [Mountain Giant]. The view around them was clear, and they could see everything around them.
After the difference in size was reversed, Elvin waved his hand.
"Stomp them to death!"
"Boom!"
[True War Trample]
What would it be like for a ten-meter-tall Skeleton King to face a thousand-meter-tall [Mountain Giant]?
Well, it would probably be like … You can't hit its knees even if you jump up.
