1258 Gathering
Seeing that the dust had settled, one of Tang Wu’s personal guards whispered, “Your Highness, we can leave this to the Holy Court. The most important thing now is to find Salvador. Only by taking him down can we take over the royal family.”
“Yes.”
Tang Wu nodded heavily.
He had stayed here to recruit Xiao Yun and his group.
“Let’s go! Go find Salvador! It’s time to settle this score with him!”
The archbishop of the Holy Court, Karkkila, was still controlling the magic array. Seeing this, he said in a deep voice, “His Majesty can rest in peace. Leave this to us.”
“Alright.”
Under the protection of the holy light shield, Tang Wu led everyone up the underground palace through the breach.
Fang Heng hid in the dark and witnessed everything that happened. He watched Tang Wu and the others leave the underground palace.
“It’s a pity that they didn’t fight.”
And the president of the Alchemy Society was too weak. He was captured without even putting up a fight.
Boring, really boring.
Fang Heng felt a little unhappy.
He wasn’t interested in the rebellion missions of the Empire. Instead, he was more interested in the people of the Holy Court.
As the seal hidden in the deep cave was gradually destroyed, more than half of the original devouring body had escaped!
More and more giant tentacles broke out from the ground of the round platform and shot up until they broke through the top of the underground palace.
The original devouring body also became crazier and crazier. Its giant tentacles began to twist and wave.
The holy light shield enveloped everything so that the wildly dancing tentacles outside could not affect the spell.
The judge, Gustavo, was a little worried. He looked at the archbishop and whispered, “Lord Bishop.”
“It’s fine,”
Archbishop Karkkila said in a deep voice, “Seal it. Just release it and act according to plan.”
“Yes!” All the judges replied in unison.
“Oh…”
Fang Heng squinted his eyes slightly.
It was very strange.
The Holy Court’s actions were strange.
What were they trying to do?
Eh?
The entire underground palace began to shake uncontrollably.
“BOOM!”
A violent explosion came from the bottom of the cave!
A viscous, liquid-like substance spewed out from the deep hole along with the explosion!
At the same time, huge falling rocks kept falling from the ceiling, blocking the entrance of the deep cave.
A dark brown fluid-like substance flowed out of the cracks in the rock.
The original devouring body had already completely broken free from the deep cave!
Karkkila’s expression was grave as he shouted, “Move out!”
The golden light bloomed again!
The outer layer of the golden shield surrounded the original devouring body that had just escaped!
“Huu!”
A faint golden flame burned on the body of the original devouring body!
Fang Heng’s pupils shrank.
The holy flame!
The Holy Court’s archbishop was using a high-level holy elemental spell. The holy flame was said to be able to dispel all evil.
The original devouring body was a creature that was afraid of light and fire.
It just so happened that the holy flame was the ultimate fusion of the light and fire attributes!
The original devouring body was extremely afraid of the holy flame. Its liquidized body was burned, and it immediately contracted and twisted. Its exposed body writhed crazily!
“Chi Chi Chi!!!”
Fine tentacles sprang out of the original devouring body and bombarded the light screen condensed by the Holy Court!
Ripples appeared on the light screen.
The attack was ineffective!
The burning holy flame continued to wear down the original devouring body.
The giant tentacle outside the light curtain felt that its body was injured, and its struggle became more and more intense. It kept waving, trying to attack the outer holy light shield.
“Thump! Thump thump!”
The huge tentacles hit the outer shield, making a dull impact sound.
Suddenly, the eyes of Molly Ann’s face in the middle of the fluid suddenly opened, and a strange shriek came out of her mouth.
“Buzz!!”
The scepter that Karkkila had placed on the ground shone with a dark golden light.
The three layers of the holy light shield on the inside and outside absorbed the sound waves again!
The screech attack was once again nullified!
Fang Heng felt the aftermath of the attack and was a little surprised. He lowered his head and looked at the scepter of the Holy Court.
The scepter must be extraordinary to be able to withstand all the attacks of an SSS-level creature.
The Holy Court had come prepared this time.
The original devouring body modified form was probably going to be purified.
Fang Heng quickly measured the difference in combat power between the two sides and pondered when to go down and finish the job.
No.
The Holy Court’s position was obviously more cautious. They had not reached their limit yet and still had a lot of strength left.
Going down now was no different from courting death.
Wait a little longer!
…
Within the Imperial City, Tang Mingyue and the others were originally rushing to the west side of the city to meet up with Tang Mo. They had just walked halfway when they learned from Wu Shijiang that Ed’s team was planning to kill Salvador.
What? So Wei Tao and the others were also playing this big?
They wanted to join forces with the players to take over the entire royal family?
Tang Mingyue and Mo Jiawei were shocked for a few seconds. They quickly came up with a plan and decided not to run anymore. Instead, they went to meet up with the players and help them seize control of the royal family. They would also meet up with Wei Tao and the others at the same time.
Soon, they returned to the central area of the Imperial City and saw a group of players fighting the creep.
The entire area in front of him was covered with a layer of gray-brown, squirming creep.
The life form continued to gather from the creep and finally turned into a gray-brown human figure. It twisted and turned into the outline of a tall figure in the air.
“Where’s Salvador? That’s the monster?”
Just from its appearance, Tang Mingyue could not associate it with Salvador.
Mo Jiawei furrowed his brows and covered his right eye with his hand. He used his innate skill to check the monster’s information.
“Yes, that’s him. He’s the product of a failed experiment. Salvador has lost his mind.”
Sandy was stunned, “Ah? You said it failed? Didn’t the notebook say that Salvador did the experiment himself and succeeded?”
“Maybe he just thinks he succeeded, or maybe to him, as long as he gets the experimental data, it’s a success.”
Mo Jiawei explained softly.
According to the information obtained from his talent skill, Salvador’s combat rating was not higher than the original devouring body in the underground palace.
“Salvador’s experiments have yielded valuable data. However, he has also suffered from the backlash of the demonic seed and needs to rely on the purple essence to suppress it. His mind is also extremely unstable, and it is extremely easy for him to lose control and enter this state of neither human nor ghost. Furthermore, he has lost his memory of this period of time.”
Mo Jiawei quickly communicated with the others about the information he had obtained through his communication skill and reminded them, “Everyone, be careful of the creep under your feet. Don’t get infected by it. It has a very strong infection ability.”
“I see it! Wei Tao is over there!”
“Let’s go and meet them.”
Everyone nodded and followed Wei Tao’s direction to join the battle against the mutated Salvador.
Not far away, Tang Mo was commanding the Empire’s soldiers to fight against Salvador’s creep. He kept a distance and released purple essence arrows at the creep to stop it from spreading. Seeing Tang Mingyue return safely, he felt a little relieved. He nodded at her from a distance and continued to command the Empire’s soldiers.
