“Older Brother!”
Lilith made a direct leap towards Lind, but was mercilessly held down by his head, stopping her at the ground.
However, Lilith didn’t mind at all and excitedly said, “You finally came back!”
Lind glanced at her and realized that Lilith thought she needed to replace him and shoulder the sun since he returned a bit late.
As for why the former queen and the current pope directly addressed the lord governor as brother, the others around wouldn’t dare to question it; such things were better left for future wild history to write.
Rena didn’t feel much about it, after all, Lilith and Lind had once sworn brother-sisterhood. What she was more concerned about was where Lind was planning to go next.
“Did you upgrade it?”
Looking at the entire high tower, Lind had to admit that it was extremely advanced, even to the point of resembling magic.
Lilith nodded and said, “According to 550C, it’s at least sufficient.”
But Lind had a doubtful expression: “Really?”
“Then go ask yourself!”
At critical moments, Lilith was reliable; at the very least, she wouldn’t joke about her brother’s life.
Watching the pitch-black room, Rena grabbed Lind’s hand and asked, “Can I go with you?”
“That’s too dangerous.”
Lind shook his head. Although it would be romantic to travel up the space elevator with Rena, and her physical condition didn’t require the special equipment that Lind needed, he really couldn’t take that risk. Not only was it unnecessary, but if anything happened to Lind, he would need Rena to stabilize the situation and send Lilith up again.
Anastasia, who was standing nearby, also said, “The Tower of Babel is ready and can be activated at any time.”
At that moment, Lucanus approached Lind and said, “My king, urgent news from the Northern Border!”
…..
At this time in the Eternal Frozen Land, the sky was covered by a huge shadow, and there was no one around the holy corpse of the demon god, as everyone nearby, including the demon clan, had been devoured by this holy corpse. The corpse kept expanding until it couldn’t fit in the entire pit anymore.
The pollution in the depths of the Sea of Consciousness was being cleared, but in the real world, the supremacy magic continually nourished this holy corpse’s power through the flesh and blood of the demon god.
If one were to observe this demon god’s holy corpse from a close distance and was lucky enough not to go insane from directly looking at the Outer God, they would find that the flesh and blood of this holy corpse was growing, boiling, and continuously connecting with the shadow in the sky.
If the War God could be seen from a distance by even half of An Zhu, then this shadow in the Eternal Frozen Land could be clearly seen from the entire Cape Northern Border. No, not just the Cape Northern Border; this shadow had even reached the heavens, faintly visible even on the fiercely burning battlefield.
“What is that thing?”
The Sorun dragon group looked at the shadow, unaware of what kind of monster their earlier decisions had unleashed, simply feeling an unbidden sense of panic.
This was yet another thing aside from the tower that scared the dragons.
Meanwhile, Antipa, commanding the demon clan on the battlefield, vaguely understood something. Indeed, this thing was going to descend; the true demon god was about to arrive.
Antipa’s feelings at this moment were hard to describe: both fear and excitement, even tinged with a bit of wonder.
The fear stemmed from not knowing what this awakening demon god would bring, while the excitement was from Antipa’s lingering hope. Since the black fog wouldn’t affect the demon clan, could it be that this god was truly a god favoring the demon clan? Was there a possibility that this god’s awakening might bring about an era for the demon clan?
Even if this demon god filled this continent with black fog, it would still be a profit for the demon clan.
The appearance of this shadow even caused those protected by the gods to once again display unstable mental states, but fortunately, the pollution in the Sea of Consciousness had been completely cleared. Even Alberto and those veterans from Cape were still struggling in the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, so these people quickly adjusted back.
At that moment, Dimier was fighting alongside a group of Avar against other humans. Upon seeing the enormous shadow, Dimier asked them, “Do you still have a ship?”
“A ship? What ship?”
The Avar looked at this demon clan member with confusion and replied, “That direction seems like it belongs to your demon clan, right? Do you even know what that thing is?”
“Definitely not something good!”
Dimier tried to lower his voice but still spoke very excitedly.
Dimier had not only participated in excavating the demon god’s holy corpse but had also escaped death multiple times. His radar for danger was once again sounding alarms.
Things happening on this continent were becoming increasingly bizarre, making Dimier feel that he could no longer change anything as someone like him. Taking advantage of the opponents being stunned by the shadow’s appearance, Dimier didn’t continue organizing attacks but instead called back all his soldiers and old men.
“I’ll ask you again, do you Avar still have a ship?”
Seeing Dimier’s serious expression, the Avar were taken aback and answered, “We do have some, but what do you need a ship for?”
“To run! If we don’t run now, it’ll be too late!”
Dimier looked anxiously at the Avar in front of him, almost stamping his feet in frustration.
“Run? What are you joking about? Even if you escape to the Solun Continent, you’ll get caught again!”
“When everyone is dead, who will come to catch us! Hurry, go prepare!”
Since most of the high-ranking leaders of the demon clan had either become demon god offspring or died, and given that Dimier had once served as Antipa’s advisor for a time, he actually held a considerable status within the joint forces of the demon clan and the Avar. Of course, the status of any demon clan member who had survived to this point wouldn’t be much lower than Dimier’s, given the casualties of the demon clan army.
Survival itself was success; this was the experience Dimier had concluded after being beaten numerous times in the Northern Border.
Thus, after the appearance of this shadow, a batch of demon clan troops and some Avar quietly began to retreat from the chaotic battlefield. Because of Dimier’s abundant experience in escaping, when everyone was focused on the shadow, nobody noticed that Dimier had led a group of people away.
At this time inside the tower, Lind had already changed clothes with Rena’s help.
Looking at the “spacesuit” designed by 550C, Lind couldn’t help but recall a slogan from his childhood: “I want to be an astronaut, and my grandparents will be so happy.”
Just as 550C had stated, although Lind’s body was healthy, it fell far short of the standards for an “astronaut,” thus requiring a lot of supportive equipment.
Seeing Lind nearly wrapped up like a ball, Rena worriedly asked, “Are you really okay?”
“If the goddess says it’s fine, then it must be fine.”
Lind, behind the transparent visor, patted Rena’s shoulder, signaling that he was in good condition. He then lightly touched the bulging visor against Rena’s forehead, examining her closely.
If possible, Lind would have liked to look at her like this for a long time, but the external shadow indicated that there wouldn’t be much time left. The situation was worse than Lind had anticipated; the demon clan had inexplicably launched that nuclear bomb, and the Outer God was truly on the verge of awakening.
Rena wanted to say something more, but Lind turned around and began heading toward the dark carriage, giving a thumbs up to everyone as he turned his back.
“The Tower of Babel is ready, systems connecting, entering launch mode.”
The cold synthesized voice began the final announcement.
