Keely glared at Jebra with excitement in her eyes.
Jebra was still trapped in his nightmare illusion, so he couldn't tell where Keely was coming from. He only saw Keely in front of him, but under the influence of the illusion, he saw countless Keely approaching him, and each of them looked real.
"You're crazy!" Jebra's voice was weak.
"Ever since my parents died, I swore that I'll kill everyone related to Flunza … and you'll be the first!"
With that, Keely unleashed a ball of fire at Jebra.
Half of Jebra's blood was burning, while the other half was poisoned. Without a doubt, this was all Shiliew's doing. She really did what she said she was going to do.
The raging flames burned away all the hair on his body. The appearance of a noble young master had now become a miserable bald head.
His skin had turned dark and blue due to the poison.
Since Feshi couldn't do anything about it, Jebra had no choice but to offer a bounty on Shiliew's head in the hope that she would be able to help him.
However, Shiliew kept yelling at Jebra the moment she saw him. She even went so far as to break through her shackles, which worsened Jebra's already bad condition.
And now, this crazy Keely showed up out of nowhere.
Normally, Keely wouldn't be able to defeat him. But Shiliew, who was supposed to be his nemesis, showed up out of nowhere!
Jebra was filled with hatred.
It seemed the gods really wanted him dead.
Jebra clenched his fists and tore off the colorful fish scale hanging around his neck. A bright light flashed and formed a barrier around Jebra's body.
Keely's fire was stopped outside the barrier.
"Scale Shield, and a top-tier one at that." Keely had been fighting Jebra for years, so she knew what it was. "But you can't move right now, and this shield won't keep you safe for long. When it breaks, you'll die! "
While speaking, Keely attacked the shield even harder.
While Keely was attacking the light shield, a light spot suddenly drilled out of a hole in the sky, which they didn't know about. It slowly drifted down, then shattered into countless pieces and melted into the still sea.
Just as the fragment fell into the Sea of Purification, a buzzing sound was heard by everyone at the bottom of the sea.
While everyone was puzzled, an image appeared out of thin air in front of them.
In the video, a man with a green longbow on his back appeared in a huge cave. He stretched out his hand to touch an iceberg that was hundreds of meters tall. The man's hand glowed with a green light, and the iceberg cracked. A black shadow woke up from the iceberg.
It was a huge Yi with a human upper body and a fish lower body. It held a trident in its hand and wore a crown on its head. Its eyes were filled with evil.
As the Gui opened its eyes, its entire body exuded an unparalleled and terrifying aura.
Even though it was just an image, everyone could faintly feel this aura … Adept level, definitely an Adept level!
As soon as this Adept level aura appeared, the video ended.
Just when everyone was confused and didn't know what this image was trying to express, a cold voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"The Ancestor of the Duons has awakened ahead of schedule. Civilization Sacrifice shall now begin. Please reach the Altar of Demise within three hours."
As soon as he finished speaking, the image disappeared.
The voice didn't mention what would happen if they didn't reach the Altar of Demise within three hours. However, everyone who was still alive in the garden knew that it wouldn't end well.
Everyone who was still alive but had yet to reach the Altar of Demise was stunned.
Only three hours left?
How was that even possible?
The Sea of Purification was huge, and everyone who entered it was randomly selected. Even if they already discovered the secret of the Duons and the Altar of Demise, most of them were still far away from reaching the Altar of Demise. It wasn't fair to start the countdown now.
There was no such thing as fairness in the wizarding world. However, the Floating Mech City did create a certain level of fairness in order to satisfy the major organizations.
Normally, the city wouldn't announce the countdown so soon. Even Angor didn't expect the countdown to happen so suddenly.
"Why so soon?" Shan was just as shocked.
She suddenly remembered the bow-wielding man in the video. "It's' Wayfarer of Green 'Kayeso! It has to be him! "
The voice mentioned that the Ancestor of the Duons had awakened ahead of schedule. What did that mean? The Ancestor of the Duons was supposed to wake up at this time.
Similarly, the countdown that shouldn't have started at this time was triggered because of the Ancestor of the Duons.
The reason for all this was clearly stated in the video. It was because of Kayeso!
Everyone who was still alive seemed to be gnashing their teeth at the same time as they ferociously muttered "Cayeso!" Kayeso, on the other hand, didn't know that he had angered everyone. He was still happily recording his journey, vowing to bring back the glory of his ancestor.
"What should we do now? Three hours isn't enough. I don't have the Meraid's Sword, and I still need to find the Altar of Demise. We're doomed. "Shan trembled in fear.
Keely also looked pale. She was still whipping Jebra, but she didn't seem to be as strong as before.
Angor pulled her back. "Leave him. We need to leave now."
Keely remained silent. "We won't make it in time even if we leave now. I'm going to kill him. At least I'll be able to vent my anger before I die. "
Angor pushed her away. "Do you think you can break through his barrier now?" Angor thought about the teleportation array under Tulip Palace. "Three hours is still a long time. It's not like we can't do it."
Keely also remembered Angor's speed. If Angor ran at full speed, he might be able to catch up.
What she didn't know was that Angor's sequence of gravity had already run out. Even if he still had enough, he couldn't use it for three hours in a row. Not even the Witch's Soup would last long.
"Give him up. If we leave now, we still have a chance to live." Angor's lazy expression suddenly turned serious.
Keely hesitated for a while before she finally nodded. She gave Jebra a hateful glare and retracted her Ghost Flame.
Angor walked to Jebra and spoke in a soft voice, "Keely can't kill you in a short time, but I can. I can trap you with an illusion and kill you before the countdown ends, or I can kill you by force. "
Jebra's ears twitched a little. He clearly heard Angor's words.
But I'm not like Keely. I have no grudge against you, so I don't have to do that. "
"What are you trying to say?" Jebra coughed up blood.
"Three Meraid's Swords. Give them to me, and I'll cancel the illusion and leave with Keely. " Before they found Jebra, they already sensed the presence of over a hundred energy waves coming from Jebra's body using their scales. Therefore, Angor asked for three Meraid's Swords right away.
Jebra had looted an entire Dugon tribe, so he didn't lack Meraid's Swords. Others might not be able to reach the Altar of Demise within three hours, but Angor had a way to do it. But if Angor really trapped him here with an illusion, he would be done for.
Therefore, this deal was not a loss. In the end, he nodded and said, "Alright, I hope you keep your word."
Jebra took out six gray scales from the whale's mouth and combined them into three Meraid's Swords.
Angor took the swords and canceled the illusion without hesitation.
As soon as the illusion disappeared, Jebra hopped onto his whale and took Feci away from the area, disappearing from everyone's sight in just a few seconds.
Keely watched the whole thing without saying a word. She knew Angor could kill Jebra, but she didn't have the right to ask him to.
Killing Jebra would only offend Song of the Deep, and Angor would have to face the wrath of the Sea God. Keely didn't want to see that happen. Besides, she had her own pride, and she had to do it herself. Otherwise, she wouldn't have fought with Shiliew in the first place.
Angor asked Keely to keep up with him and walked to Shan, who was still looking dispirited.
He tossed one of the Meraid's Swords to Shan and said, "Don't just stand there. Wake Shiliew up and find Nausica."
"Heh. What's the point? We only have three hours. There's no hope for us —"
Angor cut her off. "If you don't want to die, don't waste my time. I have a plan. Go do it."
Shan was still doubtful, but she still walked to Shiliew with a glimmer of hope.
After Jebra left, Shiliew's expression returned to normal. She looked around and wondered what she was thinking.
"You're still going to find Nausica?" Keely suddenly asked while Shan was chatting with Shiliew. Do you have enough time? "
Angor didn't answer. He was also calculating the time in his mind. Keely's question was the same as his own. If Nausica was too far away, would he waste his time trying to save her? Angor didn't know the answer to that question.
He could only pray that Nausica loved Shiliew so much that she would return to Tulip Palace to find Shiliew. If Nausica was still in Tulip Palace, even if she was just nearby, Angor would find a way to save her. If she was too far away, he would have to give up on saving her no matter how much he wanted to.
"Shiliew sensed Nausica. She's at Tulip Palace! She must have gone back to look for Shiliew. "Shan walked over.
Angor's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Alright, let's go to Tulip Palace now!"
