Growl. (Continued)
Road safety, oxygen consumption, space utilization... and so on.
Staying here will only lead to certain death.
This is truly a headache.
But... even at this point, Maria still hasn't changed at all.
She simply glanced around calmly, then shook her head slightly.
"General..."
The Old Celestial Master stepped forward and asked, with a headache in his eyes.
"What should we do next?"
"..."
Maria didn't speak, but simply tilted her head slightly and looked up at the sky.
The thick layer of soil, tens of meters thick, did not affect Maria's perception.
She could still clearly perceive every change that occurred in the air.
Including that roar, which had become completely inaudible after passing through dozens of meters of soil...
Of course she could go out right now to deal with those enemies and that monster.
But...
Compared to doing it yourself.
"I have another idea..."
Maria whispered, staring straight ahead at the layer of soil before her, as if she were looking into the distance...
Chaos... Wailing...
Zuo Le never realized just how fragile human life is when Catastrophes strikes.
He could clearly see how many people were suffering terribly inside that huge, suddenly appearing void in the entire Hundred Stoves, and how many were forever buried in that deep pit, never to breathe again.
A strong feeling of suffocation gripped his chest, making him feel somewhat desperate.
But reality no longer allowed him to overthink things.
"Boom--!"
Another bolt of lightning struck from the sky!
A bright orange-red lightning bolt, completely unlike anything that should happen naturally, suddenly appeared and illuminated half the sky!
"Step back!"
Just as the lightning was about to strike Zuo Le, a deep shout suddenly erupted!
In the instant Zuo Le was distracted, a figure suddenly appeared.
He stood to the side of Zuo Le, his gaze fixed on the thunder in the distant sky.
He took a deep breath and assumed a stance.
A gust of wind whipped his trench coat, making it rustle in the air!
Then...
"Bang!"
With a single punch, this physical fist actually created a wave powerful enough to distort the air!
In the instant that Zuo Le was stunned, a shockwave shot up from the ground and collided directly with the lightning!
The invisible object actually shattered the lightning bolt the moment it collided with it!
This defies all common sense!
"Are you alright...?"
After doing all this, Chongyue finally let out a long breath, but his expression remained solemn.
Without turning around, he directly asked Zuo Le a question.
"I'm fine, senior."
Zuo Le nodded quickly.
But then he looked at the sky with worry.
"Sui Aspect..."
"Very strong..."
Chongyue something, his tone somewhat drawn out.
Chongyue never imagined that he would encounter such a terrifying enemy... let alone that the opponent's strength would be this great!
In the distance, orange-red lightning bolts continued to fall.
The Sui Family members and the remaining warriors of the Hundred Stoves were desperately resisting the giant thunderbolt from the sky.
Occasionally, if not stopped, they simply fall to the ground.
The enormous roar was like a thunderclap, stimulating everyone present.
Even more terrifying was the explosion, with its accompanying flashes of light and deafening roar, which sent chills down everyone's spine.
"This can't go on..."
Chongyue, a hint of difficulty in his voice.
They may be able to hold onto the Hundred Stoves for a while, but the Sui Aspect always hang over the Hundred Stoves.
It doesn't rest.
If we continue like this, it will only be like cutting meat with a dull knife.
In Hundred Stoves, not many people can survive.
"Perhaps we can help..."
Suddenly, a small voice came out.
While everyone was wondering what was going on, a short girl from Cautus stepped out from the side.
"You are... Amiya?"
Zuo Le was also taken aback when he saw the other person.
Although the liaison with Rhodes Island wasn't within his job scope, they were members he was closely monitoring, so he still had some impression of them.
Zuo Le was visibly stunned for a few seconds after seeing the other person appear.
However, she quickly regained her composure.
What did you just say?
I said, "Perhaps we can help."
Amiya repeated herself a few times, her gaze resolute.
Behind her... the members of Rhodes Island had been prepared long ago...
Things changed somewhat after Rhodes Island joined the battle.
Although it's strange, it has to be said that Rhodes Island has experienced many large-scale battles and has a wealth of experience in how to evacuate civilians.
After they joined in, the evacuation operation, after a few moments of chaos, began to move quickly.
At the same time, counterattack forces are also gathering strength.
"Aa~"
Ancient songs flowed slowly from the mouths of the Banshees, their voices transforming into tangible words that surrounded them, radiating a beautiful light.
The blue-green Ling stood in the center, listening to the songs of the Banshees while adjusting his breathing...
Then...
"Rise!"
She raised her brow, suddenly raised her staff, and pointed it straight to the sky!
On the ground, massive patterns instantly spread out, and several azure dragon-shaped figures soared into the sky!
It hurtled straight toward that majestic and terrifying thing in the sky!
But...
Faced with the overwhelming clouds, these azure dragons were like mud oxen sinking into the sea.
Nothing happened...
"No..."
After the last Azure Dragon had charged forward, Ling slumped down, feeling utterly exhausted.
Shu tried quickly to pull him up, but Ling gently pushed him away, indicating his refusal.
She can still move around on her own.
"With this much power, it's not enough to penetrate the other side..."
He breathed heavily, his gaze serious.
Above the sky, even though Mingling had unleashed his full power, he could only barely tear open a few small circular craters.
The Sui Aspect didn't even notice this, continuing its aimless wandering, occasionally letting out a roar.
Throughout Hundred Stoves, more than ten locations have been engulfed in flames!
The flames continued to spread, but few people from Hundred Stoves went to put them out.
The reason is simply that there wasn't enough time.
The flames spread rapidly, and in the sky, the Sui Aspect would continue to create ignition sources.
Getting close will not only fail to put out the fire, but may also put themselves in danger!
Currently, firefighters in Hundred Stoves can only demolish houses as much as possible to divide Hundred Stoves into different areas, cut off the spread of flames, and minimize the damage caused by the fire.
"This can't go on..."
Everyone frowned, their expressions turning grim.
But at that moment, someone suddenly rushed up to Zuo Le's side.
"What's wrong?"
Upon seeing the other person, Zuo Le understood that something was wrong and immediately inquired.
"The Old Celestial Master... the Old Celestial Master is back!"
"Um?!"
The messenger's intermittent words rekindled the spirits of the group, who had been somewhat disheartened.
Only Chongyue, the eldest brother, frowned slightly.
"Where is the Old Celestial Master now?"
The communications officer paused, then shook his head slightly.
"The Old Celestial Master said she had something to take care of and couldn't come for the time being... but she also said that the culprit had been dealt with, and everyone could proceed with peace of mind."
"Besides that, the Old Celestial Master also said that this celestial Sui Aspect is most likely not going to fall to earth, and the only way to resolve it is to shatter its clouds..."
The correspondent continued speaking, but his words left everyone with mixed feelings.
The good news is that the culprits and others have been dealt with, which means the situation will not deteriorate further. However, the worry is that the information conveyed by the Old Celestial Master is not very meaningful.
They said it would just be a matter of breaking up the clouds, but the problem is... how are those of them, standing on the ground, supposed to reach those clouds high in the sky?
Where is Lady Maria?
Soon, someone nearby asked him a question.
