Chapter 483 Arrival of the Outer God

Pestoya was a special spiritual entity fused with divine fire.

If there was anyone in this world who could understand what the world looked like through the eyes of a god, it would be her.

At the instant the meteor collided with the palace's defensive shield, some restrictions were smashed with cracks. Although they recovered in an instant, a trace of aura leaked out and was captured by Pestoya.

Hearing her words, Mr. Mirror's crystal eyes flickered with wisdom. After pondering for a moment, he also analyzed, "The outer god's main body shouldn't be underground. The number of distortions in the city isn't enough yet, and that outer god is still a bit short of being able to descend. And the entire Lingdun has been sacrificed, requiring a very large magic altar. If I'm not mistaken, this underground should be a very crucial corner of that magic array, and that aura leaked from the array."

"Mm."

Suren also felt it should be so.

If that outer god could descend, it would have already descended. Otherwise, Empress Charlotte wouldn't need to delay here.

Moreover, they had thought before that such a large-scale sacrificial ritual in the entire Lingdun, whether the outer god absorbed the power of faith or gathered the essence of life, would require some special magic arrays to guide it.

But because the urban area was too large, and the royal family was covering it up, no one knew where the key corner of the array was located.

Now, Pestoya's perception was a great help.

However, before he had time to think carefully, Mr. Mirror suddenly sensed something, his expression suddenly turned stern, and he shouted sharply: "He sensed me!"

Hearing this, Suren hadn't reacted to who "He" was, when he saw Mr. Mirror had already disappeared from the spot.

A voice came from the communicator: "I'll draw the outer god's attention. Suren, with Pestoya by your side, He can't sense you. Go down and take a look. Notify me immediately if there's any danger."

Seeing this, Suren realized that their conversation about the most crucial step in the outer god's descent had directly attracted the attention of that god's will.

Hearing these words, Suren raised his eyebrows slightly.

The risk was great...

But it seemed that only they had a chance.

At the same time, a plan popped into Suren's head. He glanced at Pestoya beside him and asked, "Where did you sense it?"

Pestoya blinked and gesticulated with her fingers, saying, "The underground seems to be very, very deep. Hmm... go down from here, and then in that direction over there."

"..."

Listening to this abstract description, Suren realized that this ghost lady's sense of distance wasn't very good.

But it was also normal. Soil would interfere with all means of perception, and the uneven density of the soil layers would also be very misleading to perception.

Moreover, since it was an altar for the outer god to collect faith, there must be other restrictions interfering.

But... it was one thing to not be able to tell east, west, north, and south, but this was going too far.

Suren smiled slightly.

Pestoya returned a glance, with an expression that said, "I see through you," and said faintly, "Your look... I feel like you're嫌弃disliking me for being stupid?"

Suren reached out and pinched her small face. Even though she was a ghost, he grabbed it right away, smiled, and said, "Let's go, let's go down and take a look together."

Suddenly having her cheeks pinched, Pestoya had a slightly fierce expression, but hearing that she was going on an adventure, this ghost lady immediately changed her face, smiling happily, "Okay!"

After being trapped for a thousand years, a little bit of expectation could make her very happy.

......

Suren looked up at the eighth meteor falling in the sky, planning to wait for it to fall.

The battle near the palace was very intense, with all kinds of top-level professionals fighting each other, the scene was extremely tragic. Even seventh and eighth-tier professionals could be killed by focused fire, and low-tier professionals were no different from cannon fodder. Rushing in would turn them to ashes.

Fireworks had already exploded overhead, but the life-cherishing Empress Charlotte still didn't dare to leave the palace.

If she ran out now, she would immediately be beheaded by the opposition.

In an instant, the eighth meteor had already struck.

The super-exaggerated sound of breaking wind in his ears had turned into a deafening, manic sonic wave.

The palace's defensive restrictions didn't have time to condense the next magic energy cannon. Someone cast anti-gravity alchemy, wanting to slow down the meteor's descent, but the effect wasn't optimistic.

At this moment, a mecha figure rose into the sky, quickly transforming into a giant mechanical behemoth more than ten meters tall, like a Transformer.

The one who made the move was naturally Burton Christer, a general of Mafa.

The mechanical behemoth was covered in heavy armor, and a thick layer of magic罩 shield lit up. A black light cannon, overloaded with annihilation energy, spewed out towards the meteorite. When there was a bit of crack in the meteorite's outer shell, he crashed into it. The two made contact, the meteorite exploded in the sky, and the mechanical behemoth also flew out backwards, crashing heavily to the ground.

Yekaterina was already a quasi-seventh tier, and her meteor shower was a genuine seventh-tier technique, with gravity amplified by a thousand times, even eighth-tier professionals wouldn't dare to face it head-on.

Seeing this scene, Suren muttered in his heart: "Mecha space folding technology and external mechanical heavy armor... tsk tsk, a flesh body hard-resisting a meteorite, I wonder how many eighth tiers can resist it."

The meteorites that could fall to the ground were all meteoritic iron with extremely high density. The feeling of being hit wouldn't be pleasant.

Suren himself was proficient in mechanics, so he knew that such a head-on collision would cause very serious wear and tear on even the best armor.

These people from Mafa were here to help, but they wouldn't necessarily risk their lives for that old woman.

"Eighth-tier armor..."

A burning glint flashed in Suren's eyes.

But he didn't continue to watch the excitement.

At the instant the violent explosion sounded, he pinched a warlock seal and summoned a terrifying wax statue with rolling earth elements, the Headless Horseman.

Then, he quickly tore out the Shroud of Oz the Iceman and wrapped himself tightly, instantly erasing his aura.

The Headless Horseman stood beside him, quickly entering elementalization, turning into a ball of earth elements and gradually merging into the ground.

The invisible Suren was also wrapped in a ball of earth elements and merged into the ground very smoothly.

Digging a tunnel down wasn't realistic at all. That would only be discovered by the outer god in advance.

Teleportation couldn't sense space, and wasn't possible either.

Fortunately, the A-002-Earthshaker's talent of elemental wax statue, this puppet was not only good for fighting, but also very suitable for drilling through the earth.

Anything involving evil gods couldn't be taken lightly. Suren wrapped himself in bandages and completely restrained his aura.

Even if someone sensed it, they would only lock onto the Headless Horseman.

After the surrounding soil was elementalized, it was like sinking into water, very smooth and silent.

He went down like this all the way.

Fortunately, this directionally-challenged ghost lady couldn't say the location clearly, but after coming down, she could follow step by step.

After descending about one thousand and three meters, Pestoya said they had arrived.

After carefully distinguishing, Suren finally determined the location.

It was a space with special shielding formations, hidden very discreetly.

If it wasn't for being so close, Suren would have almost missed it.

The altar was hidden here, and wouldn't be discovered no matter what.

......

Touching the defensive restrictions would definitely be discovered, so Suren didn't plan to do that. Instead, he took out a small piece of plane crystal core.

Although precious, he couldn't afford to be stingy at this time.

He pinched a teleportation seal, the teleportation crystal shattered into powder, and he directly crossed the barrier, appearing in this underground space.

Although he didn't sense any spiritual fluctuations, as soon as he entered, Suren immediately felt himself entering a terrifying, chaotic mental field. His soul seemed to have been hit hard with a stick. In an instant, a huge amount of mixed negative mental power flooded into his mind.

Terror, despair, grief, hysterical wailing and screaming...

Suren's eyes seemed to see scarlet pictures, blood stained the earth, people were struggling to die in despair.

He understood that this was everything happening in Lingdun City at this time.

This space was filled with the negative mental power of tens of millions of people in Lingdun that the outer god had absorbed.

If Pestoya's soul hadn't been attached to his body, Suren was afraid that he would have gone mad at the first moment because he couldn't bear the mental shock.

After a moment of abnormality, Suren's eyes instantly regained clarity.

What he saw was a world of blood.

This was a blood-colored space, about one hundred square meters.

The surrounding walls were covered with blood and flesh tissue like living blood vessels.

Suren's expression was normal. He had seen it once on the Queen Rodricka cruise ship. This was obviously the altar of the Giant Hermit Society dedicated to the evil god.

Eight stone pillars carved with mysterious runes were embedded in the blood and flesh walls, and the runes on them were emitting black light.

In the center of the space was an altar, also painted with countless runes.

Suren saw a stone in the very center of the altar at a glance.

Focusing his gaze, a mysterious aura swept over him.

The stone had blood-colored lines depicting a creature pattern like a graffiti board, which was a monster with wings and countless tentacles.

[Statue of Clarence, Gathering the Power of Faith]

Details: An ancient stone tablet with the power of faith of a powerful ancient god; after the fall of the ancient god, endless years have gradually given the will remaining on the stone tablet its own consciousness, and it believes that it is that ancient god; forged from stones from Henit Bjorg Mountain; it contains some secrets that you cannot directly look at;

Suren also saw the stone tablet, and immediately knew what this was!

He also understood the origin of the outer god.

He had communicated with Pandora before, so Suren now had a lot of understanding of the Shinto system. He was very clear that this stone tablet was the thing that a false god used to carry faith before condensing a godhead.

It could be said that this was the most important and most fatal thing for that evil god!

"We've come to the right place!"

While Suren was overjoyed, a death crisis that made his hair stand on end instantly struck his heart.

He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, finding the outer god's lair?

Moreover, it wasn't just this stone tablet. Suren also found dense red crystals on the altar.

These transparent crystals were naturally all Blood Refinement Crystal Cores!

Different from the Thousand-Man Blood Refinement Crystal Cores that Suren had obtained before, the crystal cores here were much larger in size, and the life essence contained within was so rich that it was as if he were seeing a sea of blood.

After identifying them, they were all Ten-Thousand-Man Blood Refinement Crystal Cores, and there were even several Hundred-Thousand-Man Blood Refinement Crystal Cores!

If he absorbed these things himself...

To what extent would his blood and strength attributes soar?

Suren knew that these crystal cores were what the outer god needed to descend.

He didn't have time to think much, and a thought popped into his mind: "If I shatter that stone tablet, wouldn't the outer god be unable to descend?"

He had only been in here for a second or two, and the outer god was still paying attention to the battle outside, so he might not be able to react.

The probability of a successful sneak attack was extremely high.

Suren never procrastinated. As soon as the thought arose, he immediately put it into action.

While notifying Mr. Mirror, he took out Sigurd's Dragonslayer Dagger in his backhand, and then took out a bottle of fallen angel's blood in the other hand, preparing to enchant it on the spot and give the statue a stab.

Whether this stab would succeed was one thing, but it was always right to try!

And since this pseudo-god hadn't descended yet, Suren was also sure that He definitely didn't have the level of a ninth-tier professional, otherwise he would have run out and killed Master Pierre long ago.

This stab was likely to have a miraculous effect.

But as soon as this thought came out, it was as if some will in the dark peeked at this intruder through the shroud.

Moreover, that will also felt that Suren had the ability to threaten its statue. Just as he teleported onto the altar, the statue suddenly disappeared!

"It ran away?"

Seeing the statue disappear, Suren knew that he had been discovered.

But he was also slightly surprised.

He had just drawn his knife, and he had actually scared the outer god away?

As a dignified outer god, it didn't even resist?

Suren also guessed that it might be because the outer god didn't have a physical body yet, or maybe the outside was fighting lively, or maybe it didn't expect someone to suddenly break in... all sorts of reasons.

Anyway, it ran away.

But in the next instant, a murderous cloaked man suddenly appeared in this blood and flesh space.

Feeling the soul fluctuation that he had seen once before, Suren's pupils shrank sharply: "The Pope of the Giant Hermit Society!"

This was an eighth-tier professional.

However, before that guy could make a move, a card flashed on Suren's body, and Mr. Mirror also appeared beside him.

The mountain-like pressure disappeared instantly.

Mr. Mirror looked at the altar, and a strange color flashed in her crystal eyes, as if there was a kind of relieved emotional fluctuation in it.

But now was not the time to say more. She said sharply, "You go first, leave this to me."

Hearing this, Suren didn't dare to hesitate and decisively pinched a warlock seal. But before teleporting away, he saw a huge Hundred-Thousand-Man Blood Refinement Crystal Core at his feet. Since it was convenient, he grabbed it and stuffed it into the Small Void Realm.

Looking again, the surrounding scenery changed, and he had already appeared on the ground.

Rose Manor, this was the new wedding mansion where he and Yekaterina got married before. It was already close to the Rocco Valen River, quite far from the palace.

Suren had lived in it for a few days, but he wasn't just enjoying life. He had also set up a large reverse space array in the safe house in the basement. It was to teleport here in an emergency like this. The array hadn't been damaged, which meant that the meteor hadn't hit here yet.

Suren teleported again and appeared outside the house. The garden was already a mess.

There were deep pits left by meteorites on the ground, as well as many corpses.

The battle in the distance was still very fierce, and meteors continued to fall in the sky.

However, just as he appeared in the garden, Mr. Mirror's urgent message suddenly came from the communicator: "Everyone be careful, the outer god is about to descend!"

Hearing this, Suren quickly retreated violently, teleporting madly in the direction away from the palace.

Almost at the same time as the communication ended, the ground suddenly bulged, and then, like a volcanic eruption, a huge energy shock wave soared into the sky.

Two figures shot out from the ground.

Seeing this scene, Suren understood what had happened.

Mr. Mirror had destroyed the evil god's altar!

The violent movement shocked everyone in the battle.

At this time, the fog in the sky was suddenly blown away by a mysterious force, and a huge, frightening red moon suddenly appeared in everyone's field of vision.

The huge Lingdun City was instantly shrouded in a blood-colored halo.

An indescribable, indescribable will slowly became clear.

Suren had already closed his right eye and only used the All-Knowing Eye to look at the eerie red moon.

He wasn't too surprised.

Although there must be other altars under Lingdun City, it was meaningless. The location of the first altar was exposed, just like discovering a corner of the nine-pointed star magic array, so the approximate locations of the other eight corners could also be calculated.

If they were to be destroyed one by one, the outer god might not be able to descend.

Now, no matter how well He prepared, He had to descend!

Seeing the indescribable will descending, millions of zombies in the city, as well as those believers, instantly knelt on the ground, looking at the red moon with a pious and fanatical expression.

The red moon was like a god's eye, injecting everything on the ground without emotion.

But in Suren's eyes, he saw red threads stretching from those believers and zombies to the moon.

Seeing this, he was slightly puzzled: "Threads of faith... why does this feel like my Puppet Theater?"

He pulled each puppet with threads, and the outer god used threads of faith to control each believer, how similar were they in essence?

Looking again, a golden figure slowly descended in the red moon.
