As for why it was time, it was because other physical and magical attacks were useless against it, and the god that sealed it was in charge of time.
"The God of Time?!" Elwyn narrowed his eyes. This description was indeed interesting.
After another violent tremor, many stone pillars that were still standing collapsed, creating a loud rumbling sound in the depths of the sea.
Elwyn continued to read the record on the slate:
It was born for chaos and destruction. It was the source of all evil, and it meant the destruction of all worlds.
Even so, since ancient times, this stubborn creature had no lack of worshippers. Its believers hoped to obtain evil power from it to make themselves stronger. What was even more ridiculous was that there were foolish fanatics who tried to control it.
The wizards of Aoinya belonged to the latter group. They were arrogant idiots who thought they could control everything.
They were blessed by the ancient gods and mastered the secrets of time. They had the power that mortals could not have, and they built the only magic city in the world on the Mediterranean Sea, as well as many unimaginable miracles.
Even the great city of Rome had to seek the opinions of these wizards before making important decisions.
Arrogance blinded their eyes. The destruction of this city was coming, and the Great Cataclysm was about to begin …
Another large section of text was missing, and only some meaningless words were left. Elwyn skipped over them.
It's coming, I saw it. My breathing was rapid and panicked, and my body was trembling uncontrollably …
It was taller than the Cyclops in Sicily, and its shadow almost covered the entire city.
Just like me, those so-called experts knelt in front of it, trembling and begging, fearing that it would crush them with a wave of its hand.
From today onwards, Aoinya would welcome a new fate. It would either be destroyed or become immortal.
It promised to help these wizards conquer everything, and as long as they provided enough sacrifices, it would not hesitate to spread destruction and chaos to the entire world.
However, I knew that these despicable wizards had changed their expressions in secret.
They kept thinking and researching, plotting how to control the ancient creature that they had summoned, their "god".
They thought of various ways to subdue it, and finally decided to use the gift of the ancient god, the source of Aoinia's power. They used powerful time magic to suppress its power, and absorbed the magic from its body as the source of energy for the entire city.
From the following description, it could be seen that the Wizards of Aoinya controlled this creature for a period of time, which was also the most prosperous period of the city.
However, the situation quickly took a turn for the worse. The Wizards could not completely control this barbaric creature and could not force it to submit to their will. The result was the exact opposite. The power of the time magic used by the Wizards of Aoinya was weakening.
They had no choice but to weaken the summoning ritual in an attempt to seal a part of the terrifying creature back, leaving only the remaining part as the source of their power. This idea was completely ridiculous and stupid. The weakened ritual allowed the creature to see a glimmer of freedom, completely breaking away from the control of the human wizards.
This glimmer of hope was enough for it. It took the opportunity to break free from the control, and with a swing of the giant sword in its hand, the powerful wizards were annihilated. The huge explosion that followed destroyed the entire city, destroying this miraculous city on the Mediterranean Sea and causing it to sink to the bottom of the sea.
Elwyn could see that at the very last moment, a powerful Wizard of Aoinya used a forbidden dark spell at the cost of the lives of the entire city. He used the burst of power to activate time magic and sealed the monster outside back.
The record on the stone slab did not end there. There was still a long paragraph below, and Elwyn continued reading.
After the great war, the cataclysm ended, and the ancient existence temporarily left this world and returned to the chaotic time.
I'm probably the only survivor of Aoinya. I want to record everything about this catastrophe, including the method to summon that creature into this world. If you dare to summon it, I'll tell you everything without hiding anything!
Elwyn frowned. No matter who the person who recorded this stone slab was, after witnessing the explosion and the deaths of the entire city, he became a bit deranged and confused. He used many grammatical errors and unclear words, and even recorded these information that should not have been passed down.
He simply looked at the method to summon the monster outside. These things were meaningless to him.
As expected, this was a powerful dark magic.
Apart from powerful energy, it also required souls, which were used to strengthen the summoning ritual. Thousands of years ago, in order to summon that monster, the wizards of this city did not hesitate to annihilate several cities and ancient clans in the African region, seizing their souls to carry out the summoning ritual.
"Since souls are needed, where does the Messenger of Disaster plan to get those souls?!" Elwyn could not help but think.
As if to answer his question, the space at the bottom of the sea shook violently again.
"Foolish wizards, offer your souls!" the monster shouted angrily. "Welcome the return of the King of Darkness!"
As soon as it finished speaking, all the souls in the ruins floated up slowly and uncontrollably towards the abyss at the center of the city, as if there was some kind of suction force there that forced them to move.
The dead all had fearful expressions on their faces. They still retained their memories from when they were alive, as if they already knew what had happened.
They all tried to escape or hide in a hurry.
Fortunately, the suction force that suddenly appeared was not very strong, so the spirits could still resist it.
However, as the magic ritual that the Messenger of Disaster presided over continued, it would definitely become stronger.
"This is not good. Do I have to fight it head-on?!"
Elwyn was not very willing to go to the edge of the abyss to fight the mysterious and dangerous dark wizard, especially when the shadow of the monster outside had already come to this world.
He had already been marked by the evil god. If it was not necessary, Elwyn did not want to be remembered by some indestructible monster. Who knew if there was someone crazy in this world who would summon it in other places?
The code of law mentioned on the slate worried Elwyn. It did not mention the final whereabouts of the evil book that recorded many methods of summoning dark creatures.
That thing was like a time bomb, and no one knew when it would explode.
When there was only one paragraph left on the slate, Elwyn quickly glanced at it.
I originally planned to send this slate to Rome to warn future generations, but life is leaving me at a speed visible to the naked eye. I can only bring it back from the temple to this ruined city. May God forgive my sins. After I die, my soul will be completely annihilated. This is the punishment of God for me.
