When the chaos creature touched the deep-sea torpedo, Tang En knew that things were going to be bad.
The deep-sea torpedo was wrapped in a layer of water element. On one hand, it was to ensure that the torpedo's high-speed movement in the water would not be disturbed. On the other hand, it was to push the deep-sea fishes away and prevent them from hitting them. At the same time, it also had the effect of shielding the power of the divine runes.
However, it was only a thin layer of water element after all, and did not have much defensive power.
Chaos creatures were naturally polluting. Once they touched the deep-sea torpedo, that layer of water element would immediately be destroyed, and the power of the divine runes inside the torpedo would leak out.
Chaos creatures were still connected to each other. Once one of them discovered it, the others would also know about it.
After all, the divine runes were condensed from divine power and were very pure order power. In such a heavily polluted area, it was as conspicuous as a lamp in the dark to the chaos creatures.
Therefore, they launched an attack almost immediately.
If not for Tang En's quick reaction, the deep-sea torpedo would have been completely destroyed.
The moment the deep-sea torpedo fiercely pierced into the Chaos Gate, the three people far away in Vaschil only saw a beam of golden light, and then they lost contact with the other side.
"Did it work?"
Perdys and Cericis looked at each other. They had persisted for so long, but in the end, they could not see the situation on the other side at the most crucial moment. This was really unbearable.
"It should have succeeded."
Tang En let out a long sigh. As long as the astral crystal was successfully activated by the divine runes, with the power of the explosion, the space in that area would definitely be completely destroyed.
Although the Chaos Gate often appeared in areas with weak spatial structures, it needed space to carry it. Space was the foundation of everything. If space was destroyed, the Chaos Gate would also lose its foundation.
"But now there's another problem."
Tang En wiped his cold sweat and then thought of another problem. "Such a huge underwater explosion will definitely cause a huge tsunami. The Irus is still fine because it's far away from the explosion, but the Solant Kingdom will probably suffer …"
Perdys was stunned. "You're worried that the tsunami will hurt those humans?"
"Of course!"
Tang En was speechless. He was here to save the world, but before he could kill Chaos, he had become the devil who slaughtered countless humans. What was going on?
Perldis suddenly said, "Leave this matter to Cericis."
"You have a way?"
Tang En looked at Cericis in surprise. Then, he remembered that Cericis was a priestess of the Water Holy Cathedral and an agent of Anita Lyle. Perhaps she really had a way to quell the tsunami?
After a moment of silence, Cericis made up her mind and said, "No problem. Time is of the essence. Let's go over now."
Cericis led Twain and Perdys out of the palace and circled behind Vaschil. Soon, a small hill at the bottom of the sea appeared in front of them. Dense seaweed grew around the hill, and a dense school of fish circled around the hill, seemingly unwilling to leave this place.
The mountain was sealed by a mysterious power. A huge bright blue film covered the entire mountain. Not only were there no chaotic creatures, but even the Nagas could not be seen. Tang En could vaguely see that there seemed to be a few pillars at the top of the mountain.
Cericis stood at the foot of the mountain and pointed in front. "This is the Water Holy Cathedral. Other than priestesses, saintesses, and backup priestesses, no one is allowed to come close."
Perldis added, "Even I can't enter this place usually. Even my daughter can enter …"
"That's because Mother gave up on being a priestess and chose to take on the responsibility of being a queen."
Cericis shook her head and said, "I hope the Goddess can forgive my actions …"
With that, she stood in front with her hands clasped in front of her chest and whispered in the Naga language, sending out her request to the Goddess of Water, Anitalyer. However, after a moment, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Tang En in shock. She then said, "Although the Goddess did not respond, I can feel her thoughts. She actually agreed! And she knows you are here, and she even allowed you to enter the Holy Cathedral! "
"Huh?"
Tang En blinked and subconsciously looked at the Water Holy Cathedral. Could it be that Anitalyer was the same as Nisclare, a voyeur? Was she still staring at him now?
"Why?!"
Perldis was indignant. "She can go in, but I can't?! Isn't the Goddess being too biased?! "
"Mother, you can also enter the Holy Cathedral."
"The supreme Goddess, you are as generous and selfless as ever!"
Is it really okay for you to be so shameless in front of your own daughter?
Tang En only cared about ridiculing Perldis in his heart, but he did not realize that his special treatment had confirmed Perldis' and Cericis' suspicions about him.
The Naga Queen and Naga Priestess coveted his life seed even more intensely.
The three of them quickly rushed to the Holy Cathedral at the top of the mountain. After arriving at the Holy Cathedral, Tang En looked around and was disappointed to find that although it was called a Holy Cathedral, it was not much different from the Holy Cathedral of Wind. A simple and plain palace sat on the top of the mountain. The palace seemed to be the place where Cericis and the other priestesses rested and prayed. It was completely built of white stone, and the stones were covered with seaweed and shells.
In the square in front of the palace, twelve pillars surrounded a flat circular square in the middle. The square was paved with stone slabs, and some strange runes and pictures could be seen on the stone slabs. They seemed to be describing stories related to the Goddess of Water, but Tang En really could not understand them — the drawings were too abstract.
The stone pillars next to it were the same as the Holy Cathedral of Wind. They were engraved with mysterious divine runes. Who knew how many years had passed, but these divine runes were still shining brightly and exuding the pressure of the gods.
Due to the urgency of time, Cericis did not have the time to introduce this place to Tang En. She slid to the center of the square, then opened her arms and loudly chanted some complicated incantations in the Naga language.
Then, Tang En and Perdys, who were standing outside the square, saw beams of light shooting out from the surrounding pillars. These beams of light all gathered on Cericis. After being illuminated by the beams of light, she seemed to be under great pressure. Soon, she had no choice but to cast God's Descent to increase her endurance.
After casting God's Descent, Cericis accepted the power in the light. Her body suddenly expanded several times, and the shadow of the Goddess of Water, Anitalaire, appeared behind her.
After Anitalaire appeared, her gaze fell directly on Tang En. She nodded slightly at him, then looked up at the sky.
What Tang En did not know was that at this moment, a blurry face was overlooking the sea from the sky above the Sea Abyss. The supreme majesty of the gods descended on this world from her agent. Almost all the ships sailing in the Sea Abyss and the residents living on the coastline of the Sea Abyss saw this face.
They knelt down and offered their most devout faith to the face in the sky. These faiths gathered on Cericis, then transformed into pure power for her to use.
Tang En asked curiously, "What is she doing?"
"Borrowing the power of the Holy Cathedral of Water to temporarily obtain the qualifications to use the power of the Goddess," Perdys said with a serious expression.
"Although the Goddess is benevolent, the power of the Gods is not something that mortals can step into. Therefore, Cericis has to bear a lot of pressure."
Cericis was indeed under great pressure. Now, her body was creaking under the pressure of the divine power. Her bones were almost deformed, but she was still holding on.
In the sky, the gaze of the face fell on the northwest side of the Sea Abyss. The power of the astral crystal explosion had begun to appear. The seawater here was churning wildly, and a huge tsunami had formed. It was spreading in all directions with the explosion as the center!
The terrible impact of the explosion in the deep sea had weakened a lot by the time it reached the surface. But even so, the tsunami formed was hundreds of meters high. If no one stopped it, this tsunami could destroy hundreds of kilometers of land along the coast of the Sea Abyss. The number of casualties was incalculable!
Seeing the huge tsunami raging, Cericis focused and mobilized a part of her divine power. Then, she spat out a word with difficulty, "Omi (stop)!"
In an instant, the tsunami that was hundreds of meters high seemed to have hit an invisible wall. The mighty and unparalleled power came to an abrupt stop. The entire sea seemed to have fallen into a state of stillness. Only the great whirlpool in the center was still roaring.
After the tsunami that was stopped collapsed, trillions of tons of seawater flowed back to the explosion point. Under the sea, a spatial rift that was hundreds of meters wide was constantly swallowing seawater, forming a huge whirlpool in the sea.
If left alone, this place and the spatial rift above the Broken Islands would probably suck up all the seawater in Prandal.
The power of the Goddess of Water could of course repair the shattered space, but after Cericis barely stopped the tsunami, she was completely exhausted. The face in the sky collapsed, and her spiritual power returned to her body. She spat out a mouthful of blood that dyed the seawater red. Then, she fell to the ground softly.
"Cericis!"
Perdys was shocked and rushed over. Tang En followed closely behind. [Nola!]
Nola glanced at her. [I'm fine. I just overused my spiritual power. I'll be fine after some rest.]
Tang En heaved a sigh of relief.
He wanted to ask Cericis if the matter was successful, but he did not expect her to faint.
No wonder she was unwilling at first. After all, the deaths of the people on land had nothing to do with her. It was indeed difficult for her to risk her life to save those people.
But she still did it.
She was a great priestess of the Goddess.
