The sky in Akat Territory had been a little strange recently, and it was one of the most talked about things in the city.
Just like in Luo Ya's previous life, the top topics weren't necessarily important scientific discoveries, but the topics that people were interested in would definitely be at the top. The long night in Akat Territory was undoubtedly the most talked about topic.
At first, people thought that it was just a sudden appearance of rain and snow. After all, the night was the longest at the end of the year, so it was possible to encounter a cloudy day that looked like it was still dark. However, people soon realized that something was wrong.
The greatly increased night time made people's lives chaotic. The time that the streets were brightly lit was greatly extended, and there were many different reasons for this situation.
After all, for people who had lived in this land since they were young, the Akat Territory might not be able to provide prosperity, but security and stability had not changed for decades. The powerful military strength of the territory also gave them confidence.
In front of the cathedral in the center of the city, people who came to pray lined up in a long line. They asked the clergy of the church about the strange phenomenon in the sky. The clergy of the church, who had already communicated with the Akat Mansion, tried their best to calm the people and maintain the order of the city. m.
Adaptation was not nonsense, and drama was not nonsense. Although Luo Ya supported freedom of speech, he couldn't stand people being bewitched, especially during this time of great pressure.
There was a limit to people's patience. This kind of gloominess that seemed like the sky was about to press down on them, let alone ordinary people, even Transcendents had a heavy heart. Once the short period of curiosity passed, more and more people would be worried, and the city would gradually become unstable.
In the Akat Mansion, looking at the surging darkness in the sky, the black-haired boy's eyes glowed faintly. It was obvious that he was on high alert. In the past three days, the darkness in the sky of Akat Territory had become deeper and deeper. The pressure on the boy's perception was also getting stronger and stronger. Luo Ya intuitively felt that it was about to reach the critical point of eruption.
Luo Ya noticed the concentration of magical powers, but the young man didn't take any action. The reason was simple. Through his conversations with the Gulan Daer and Pei Tela, Luo Ya gradually understood what the enemy was doing. They were constructing their own domains.
Other than appearing in history books thousands of years ago, they were only used by the ritualistic cursemancers of the Holy See. However, most of them were sacrificial in nature and had no practical use.
"They want to wake up a creature with a God Spirit Blood-Pulse. This time, our opponent is in trouble."
In ancient times, the highest existence in Xi Ya's world was the God. However, unlike the legends, the God was not immortal. With the passage of countless years, the changes of the times and the changes of the environment made the God gradually withdraw from the stage of history, and the mythical creatures also disappeared.
However, unlike the situation of the deified races, these evil existences would not let the possessors of their own God Spirit Blood-Pulse live on their own. Instead, they would attach themselves to the possessors of their own God Spirit Blood-Pulse and control them.
Pei Tela and the others determined the type of the enemy, but in fact, Luo Ya already knew the true identity of the enemy. The reason was simple.
The young man who calmly expressed his thoughts frowned. His eyes were full of disgust as he looked at the sky. The moment he confirmed the identity of the enemy, the various questions in the young man's heart were finally answered.
With the [Collector] as bait, the two kings of the first source-level races in the human world who were closest to Luo Ya were attracted. Behind them, in Saint Mestre, which was generally considered to be the safest place, the other Fallen Ones directly attacked Akat Hill.
"They should be the ones who interfered with the passage connecting to Altacia."
Since the [Collector] was the one who would ultimately decide the success of the plan, the [Collector] who was not here naturally had to ensure that the ritual would not be interrupted.
Currently, Luo Ya could not destroy the enemy's territory even if he used the [Saint's Dagger] to fly into the sky. However, if it was Altacia, it would not take long for her to completely destroy the enemy's territory.
After sighing, the black-haired young man turned around and looked at Cynthia and the others. When he realized that Luo Ya and the ancient gods had finished their conversation, the tall woman who had been standing respectfully for a long time bowed and asked.
"Yes, it's about time to activate the war alarm. Let's begin the evacuation."
"… The war is about to begin."
On the third day after the sky appeared, Akat City suddenly activated the war alarm that covered the entire city. After the alarm was activated, a large-scale evacuation began.
Such a baffling evacuation naturally caused some people to be dissatisfied. However, with Luo Ya's prestige and recent thunderous means, no one dared to openly oppose him.
The war was about to break out. After a few days of investigation, Luo Ya had also found the thing that hurt the [Spiritual Fledgling]. It was a kind of demon that wandered in the dark sky. It looked like a falcon and a crow with blood-red eyes.
"That's the Death Raven Falcon. It's a demon that grows by devouring the souls of the dead in ancient legends. To be able to control these things, I have a rough idea of who our enemy is."
The fallen, especially the fallen that had survived since ancient times, were mostly powerful beings that were directly implicated by the fall of the Savior in ancient times. Just like the Treant Priest who had an immeasurable lifespan in the past, their strength was usually abnormally strong. Even after the passage of time, they were still incomparable to ordinary people. This time, it was the same.
Xi Ya's angels were able to fly by relying on the wings of light formed by curses. The wings of the Winged Clan were part of their bodies. Just like the Eagle Clan, most of them had a part of the bird's symbol, either sharp claws or feathers of birds.
However, just like the experience of the Treant Priest, after Xi Ya disappeared, the world entered an era dominated by the Savior and the Mother Goddess. As a race that soared in the sky, the Winged Clan could be said to be the race closest to the sun. Naturally, they would worship the Savior who had the title of Sun God. Everything after that was simple.
"The only ones who can tame the Death Raven Falcon are the Winged Clan who ruled the sky and guarded the Savior's Shrine. Our opponents are probably the remnants of the fallen Winged Clan."
The ancient race could be said to be one of the opponents that Luo Ya hated the most. As an existence that could survive for thousands of years, their strength and means would definitely be far beyond the human's Conjurers. Most importantly, Luo Ya was not familiar with these guys.
What kind of ancient tainted artifact was it? Or was it some other kind of curse?
Thanks to the hobbies of Luo Ya's ancestors, the city defense facilities of Acate City were perfect. There were many large and small shelters in the city. Even though the population had increased by a lot, it was still barely enough. When the residents in the city were evacuated, the black-haired boy looked at the sky that was getting more and more oppressive as he channeled the curse power in his body with all his might.
At this speed, it would probably be late at night.
"Big Brother, the curse power in the sky is getting stronger and stronger. It seems that the battle is going to start today."
"That means … I can fight alongside Big Brother, right?"
"Huh?"
"Big Brother, are you going out of the city?"
"No, that's too dangerous! The curse vessel in Acate City has been activated. There's no need to take such a risk … "
Luo Ya, who said so, shook his head. He had no intention of changing his mind. Hearing the black-haired boy's reason, Ai Lisi fell into silence for a while.
The city's enchantment couldn't protect Luo Ya. Otherwise, why would the [Collector] take such a big risk to appear in person?
Hearing Luo Ya's words, the silver-haired girl showed a hesitant look. Seeing this situation, Luo Ya was silent for a moment. Then, he stepped forward and gently hugged Ai Lisi.
"But what if something unexpected happens …"
Looking at the worried girl, Luo Ya said so confidently. Seeing the boy like this, Ai Lisi's words of persuasion stopped for a while. She couldn't help but lower her head and ponder.
For the time being, not to mention the Gulan Daer's super strong breakthrough ability, Pei Tela, as the Mother Goddess, also came and went freely on the earth. Any kind of restriction curse would be difficult to work on because most restriction curses had the earth attribute.
So thinking about it carefully, the black-haired boy would rather use his full strength in the wild than to defend the city and be distracted by others. That way, his survival rate might be higher.
Since the opponent in this battle was the Fallen, Luo Ya couldn't hold back because except for some new skills in the past year, the [Collector] knew him like the back of his hand. Under such circumstances, the person that the [Collector] could send out without worry was definitely not someone that Luo Ya's previous means could resist.
Thinking of this, the boy's heart calmed down. For Luo Ya, the best encouragement for him was that the most precious person could safely survive this disaster. In this hurried preparation, time began to pass quickly, and the moment of the battle finally arrived.
Night time was a reassuring time for most of the residents of Acate City. After a day of work, most of the people would return to their homes at this time, either alone or in a group, enjoying the most important meal of the three, dinner.
But today, the residents of Acate City weren't as relaxed and peaceful as they usually were, and the reason was simple. Most of them were in the crowded underground, protected by spells, waiting for news from the outside.
Putting aside the strange phenomenon in the sky, after the alarm sounded and the evacuation began, an inexplicable sense of oppression began to appear in the hearts of the people. The source was very clear, it was from the pitch-black sky. As time passed, more and more strange noises began to come from the outside world.
It was a strange sound that sounded like the cries of birds, but also like the screams of humans. It continued to echo in the outside world. The first reaction of the people who heard this sound was that their hair stood on end. Under such a strange situation, no one dared to go out easily.
"Boom — —!"
When the blood-red light fell, everyone who stood on the ground held their breaths. At the same time, they felt an indescribable bloody aura. The world in front of them became more and more distorted and red, as if it was tempting them to go crazy. But before the soldiers could panic, a cold and calm order came from the city wall, followed by the messenger.
Amidst the loud screams, a violent surge of spell power suddenly came from Akkat City. The whole city trembled slightly, and then there was a rumbling sound, as if it was fighting against the existence in the sky. Amidst this sound, a blue and white pillar of light shot into the sky, and then turned into a barrier that covered the whole city, firmly blocking the blood-red light outside.
It was a group of black birds with blood-red eyes that looked like crows and falcons. They opened their mouths, and the sound they made wasn't the sound of birds, but the screams of various animals.
Death Crow Falcons, this was their name. They were also the soul-devouring birds that were feared in ancient times. Under the encirclement of these innumerable ominous creatures, a huge figure slowly appeared in the sky.
