Chapter Twenty-Eight: Coming Beyond the Boundary

The black tentacles comparable to the long river waved in midair, and then smashed down towards the location of the exploration team with enough force to shatter the continent.

Before it could hit its target, the shock wave and tidal force alone caused the entire continent to change drastically.

The hurricane of the riot swept across the mountains and plains of World One, shattering the layers of metal ore that had been piled up for millions of years, and a huge cloud of dust rose on the surface of the earth to turn into a new high-heat cloud, and the central continent of World One showed a long dent because of the blow that had not yet fallen.

If it is a waste to kill chickens with a knife, then this time the strength of the black fog attack is far more than that of the anti-aircraft gun to fight mosquitoes, but almost like a star destroyer killing cockroaches - a huge black fog aggregate in order to kill a small team of unknown life that does not know the source, the extravagant use of a surface cleansing attack that is enough to destroy a medieval civilization, if it really hits the continent, it will undoubtedly cause plate splitting.

In response, Priest just raised the crystal shield in his hand.

High Gravity Shield - is located in the exchange center of the Imperial Department of Foreign Exploration, worth 4000 points and a C-level exchange authority of the high-level magic energy creation, with the ability to induce unloading by creating a gravity field, resisting most physical attacks, this is not a particularly rare and rare magic prop, on top of it, there is also a B-level exchange permission, 7500 points of exchange points of the phase transfer circle and A-level space isolation shield, it can put the holder into an artificial space, block all attacks.

However, the giant shield in Priest's hand is different, although its material is just an ordinary crystal, but it is infused by Priest himself with a trace of power from Joshua - the power of steel to transform this ordinary magical creation, making it a carrier for the warrior to pass on to Priest's hands.

That is, absolute protection.

In the old days in the Ares Fortress, Priest pleaded with Joshua for knowledge called 'Guardian', he wanted to protect the person he wanted to protect, keep her away from all dangers and disasters, and the warrior readily agreed, he put the information of the inheritance in a trace of steel power, and handed it to the other party, so that Priest himself could comprehend this power in practice, Priest naturally understood Joshua's expectations, so he exchanged a gravity shield that best matched the inheritance and carried it with it.

What the warrior gave to Priest is derived from the inheritance of 'gravity', with the gravity shield as a guide, he will gradually learn how to control gravity, offset the attack, with the progress of Priest's strength, that ordinary gravity shield will gradually become the strongest shield in the world, a real barrier of time and space, if one day Priest achieves a legend in this way, then the shield in his hand will become a barrier between the world and the void, becoming a barrier that even the evil god cannot directly tear, can only be indirectly weakened by various means' Absolute asylum'.

But now, he is far from growing to that point, in the face of the black mist's casual blow, Priest raised his shield without hesitation, he used the fighting energy that he had transformed into 'gravity fighting energy' as a guide, and attracted the power of steel that was lodged in the shield.

Suddenly, a brilliant silver light erupted, and the translucent crystal shield exploded into countless fine crystal fragments in an instant, and a terrifying force that could not be used burst out of its full power at the moment when it lost its carrier, and the consequences of its outburst-

It's contraction.

Under the black tentacles of the overwhelming continent, time and space began to distort with an amplitude visible to the naked eye, and it could be seen that countless crystal fragments seemed to be frozen and stayed in place, and the bright brilliance like the galaxy was dancing in the center of the shattered crystal - but every time it jumped, it was not expanding, but rapidly contracting, and a huge gravitational disturbance was abruptly generated, as if a huge entity from far away was connected to this place across the world, and at the same time, a series of spatial grooves began to appear, it was like tentacles, Absorbing the matter around him at a frantic rate.

The off-road people of the entire external exploration team were shrouded in a strange light, and were not absorbed by the grooves, but the surrounding earth and mountains were not so lucky, they seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand, and then pulled into the endless shrinking silver light, in just a fraction of a second, the surrounding metal mountains and the earth were extracted from most of the matter, and the rapidly expanding giant vortex space-time distortion was formed under the tentacles of the black mist, and it leaped up and collided with the black tentacle.

"-Zizi?!"

Sensing the abnormal change, the black fog that felt a great threat began to rapidly adjust the output and form of its tentacles, but it was too late, at this time, this black fog had completely lost its control over that part of its body, and it could only watch the space-time distortion rise like an upside-down meteor, easily shattering its river-like black tentacles and getting involved in its own gravitational disturbances.

The so-called protection is to resist all the energy released by the enemy, and this twisted gravitational nova swallows all the terrifying power of the black mist tentacles enough to shatter the continent into its body, like a bottomless abyss, and this abyss immediately collapses itself when it reaches the limit of devouring and rises to the highest sky, producing an incomparable explosion!

- Boom!

In the dark cosmic space, there is a strong point of light beyond the star, and countless substances that have been swallowed into the gravitational vortex before, and have not been completely transformed are returned by its crazy reverse spurt, and it can be seen that with the shock wave that swept through half the planet, there is a circle of circular nebulae and mist spreading in the high sky of the first world, and countless energy and dust in it are accompanied by dazzling light and heat, temporarily shining on this world that has lost its stars.

On the other side, the black mist that had lost one of its tentacles was rapidly fleeing towards the dark cosmic space—it felt a trace of heartfelt fear from this inexplicable attack.

As a miniature rune construction cluster, the black mist has almost immortal survivability, if the attack means do not reach the microcosm, then no matter how terrifying the attack is, it is impossible to kill it, but the previous space-time distortion can easily cut off the connection between it and part of its own body, and then wipe it out into the most ordinary elementary particles or even pure energy, under such an attack, there is no 'immortal' and 'immortal', even if it is an eternal existence in the past, if it is hit, it will be wiped out.

This situation is so similar to it.

This black fog seemed to stay in the direction of the 'dark rainbow' for a moment before escaping, and the next moment, it disappeared into the vast darkness, nowhere to be found.

At the same time, the entire elite exploration team and their speeding car crashed to the earth in a trance.

With the harsh sound of metal scraping, the sturdy speeding car fell to the ground, pulling a long dent on the surface and then coming to a halt on a mass of metal - it could be seen that the entire lower half of the off-road vehicle was completely damaged by the violent friction, and the body of the pure gold alloy was difficult to resist this wear and tear.

However, none of the occupants of the car were wiped out - everyone was prepared for the impact, using magic, fighting energy, holy light, and even alchemical glue to hold themselves in place, and then casting shields against the impact, a series of actions that did save their lives.

However, saving his life does not mean that there is no major problem, when Priest woke up from his trance, he found that his hands with shields and magic armor had completely disappeared, but fortunately, the strong fleshly instinct of the silver-level warrior contracted his muscles and stopped the bleeding, otherwise he would definitely bleed too much and die in the coma.

Before Priest could feel happy because of his decisive move, he successfully blocked the blow of the Legendary Otherworldly Existence and saved his life with the entire team, and when he looked around, he found that the current situation was really bad in the true sense of the word.

Because their entire squad was in a state of serious injuries that could barely move.

The knight at the front, who had endured the heaviest impact, was now lying on top of the air sac that was slowly deflating, his body did not have a trace of trembling activity, and the head of the priesthood on the other side had already been half shattered at the same time as the impact, if it weren't for the fact that there were still some traces of the holy light swimming on his body, proving that he was barely maintaining his own will with his climactic spiritual cultivation, anyone would feel that he was completely dead.

And the mage who supported the shield still has a trace of consciousness, but he is now spitting bright red blood, obviously because of the magic power backlash caused by the collapse of the magic shield, and the internal organs are seriously damaged, and the Priest and the alchemist in the back row, one is because the warrior's tough physique and impact are smaller, so the damage is not hit, and the other is because the magic creature has been transformed many times, and the physique is actually non-human, so the current state is fine.

Patches of black smoke were rising from the bottom of the off-road vehicle, and the completely stopped magic engine had been completely damaged, so there was no need to worry about its explosion, and without waiting for Priest's command, the only alchemist who was in good condition had already taken the initiative to stand up and hurriedly went to the front row to detect the situation of the two people in the front row.

"Ahem—how are the two of them?"

Priest concentrated, forcibly sealed the nerve perception at the wound on his arm with his fighting spirit, he gritted his teeth and said, "Are you still alive?" ”

“…… The knight is dead. ”

In the front row, the alchemist showed an indescribable sad expression after detecting the knight's heartbeat and brain health, and he whispered: "The priest is still alive - but not far from death, to be honest, he died a long time ago, a few minutes before the knight, but he only survived a little longer by the magic of 'Last Words'." ”

The five members of the exploration team have been training together for more than a year, they have survived on a desert island together, carried out inhumane hell training, they went deep into a desperate situation together, and successfully completed all the practical tasks, the feelings of the five people seem to be average, in fact, everyone can give their backs to each other without any doubt, just like Priest can make the whole team fight to the death without hesitation with him just by saying a word.

As he spoke, the alchemist, though in a low tone, did not continue to linger at the side of his companion, who was sure to die—he hurriedly came to the middle of the car, beside the still alive mage, and then used his speed to draw a few healing potions from his body and inject them into the mage's body. The timely replenishment of vitality suddenly made the caster, who was pale and seemed to be dying at any time, turn rosy for a moment, and then he rolled his eyes and went into shock with complete relief.

If it weren't for the mage holding up the last anti-impact shield, then even if the inheritance power induced by Priest blocked the volley of the Black Mist tentacles, everyone would have died in the high-speed impact of the speeding car and the earth, in a sense, he was also the hero who saved everyone.

The alchemist looked as if he wanted to go back to the back row and treat the horrific wound on his arm for his captain, but suddenly, Priest remembered something, he shook his head vigorously, and refused the other party's help, Priest said in a deep voice: "Don't waste time - did you forget to repair the pillar of light and the 'Soul Abyss Ball'?!" Take it out! ”

Hearing this, the alchemist who had already taken out a tube of light green recovery potion and was about to inject it for Priest was stunned for a moment, and then, his complexion changed rapidly, as if he had touched the last straw as a surprise-he immediately took out a few small balls with black and red paint on a silver background from the storage compartment behind his magic armor, and then quickly ran to the side of the knight in the front row, and used his magic power to activate this ordinary-shaped 'soul abyss ball'.

After being activated, the metal ball painted with the black and red 'φ' symbol suddenly transformed into a translucent form, and it could be seen that countless rays of light appeared in the knight's body, which seemed to form a translucent mist human form, and then seemed to follow some kind of summoning and disappeared into the soul abyss ball. And just after all the light that formed the human form completely entered the ball, the soul abyss ball also regained its original image as a metal ball, but the silver background color turned into a red like blood.

At this moment, the priest also stopped taking his last breath, and the alchemist hurriedly activated another soul abyss ball, and the metal ball also contained the entity formed by the light, that is, the visible soul, into his body, but this time the background color of the change was pale gold.

After completing the storage of his companion's soul, the alchemist, whose hands were still a little trembling, came to Priest's side, he had no strength to speak, he could only turn his head and instruct the other party to take out the silver cylindrical repair light pillar from his reserve warehouse, but fortunately, the alchemist's physique was better than that of the priest and the mage, because the demonic beast organ transformation was not seriously injured in the impact, so he could still afford to hold this terrifying cylinder weighing several tons, otherwise, maybe one could not hold it steadily, and the exploration team would have one more seriously injured.

"Wisdom is immortal, order is eternal!"

Whispering aloud, the alchemist nervously looked around before placing the pillar of repair light on the level ground, while Priest sat in his seat, patiently waiting for the countdown to its activation...... The three minutes, which were originally only for a moment, seemed to be extended countless times at this time, and the only remaining two people in the entire exploration team who were still conscious observed the surroundings vigilantly, praying that no enemies would appear.

But some scholars once summed up a theorem, which is that in this damn multiverse, no matter what is bad, it will happen whenever it is possible.

"Zizi Zi ......"

With the sound of a slight electromagnetic surge, Priest and the alchemist both noticed that the sound of Suo Suo was heard from all directions—and soon, a myriad of strange mechanical bodies of strange shapes, as if clumsily put together by several geometric figures, appeared in front of them.

It was the semi-automated machinery that the Black Mist had improvised while fleeing to monitor the dangerous planet. And now, they've come across the Exploration Squad at the top of the Sweep Target.

"Huzz, hum!"

A strangely shaped geometric object let out a piercing hiss, and it shot a searchlight pillar of light at the two of them with resolute and desperate faces—and in the next moment, countless geometric machines followed the guidance of the pillar of light, surging towards the two Priests.

Tens of thousands of strangely shaped machines sped towards the exploration team, like a wave of silver-gray metal, they surrounded from all sides, blocking all possible evasion, no matter how they tried to get out, they would inevitably be blocked.

"It seems that a war is inevitable."

Priest stood up strongly, although he lost two hands, but he still had two feet, no fists, he could still kick - even if his legs were broken and only his head and teeth remained, Priest still would not give up, he sneered at these low-level derivative machines, or rather, the initial family of the black mist: "All go into battle, there is no strength left, just like that black mist." ”

On the other side, the alchemist whispered: "Captain, you run away with the mage, and I will break the queen for you." ”

As he spoke, he pulled out several bottles of potions of different colors from the potions on his waist, but the magic fluctuated to the extreme, and the alchemist did not hesitate to lift the translucent mask on the helmet, and directly stuffed all the potions and test tubes into his mouth, and then bit them into pieces, the sharp glass could not cut through the tough mouth of the transcendent, and as they fused with each other, the magic potions that reacted with each other were swallowed into the alchemist's abdomen.

These potions, for Priest and the others, are of no use to the slightest, in essence, they are a catalyst that can allow the alchemist's body to activate a large number of demonic beast organs transplanted in his body at full power, providing him with a strength far beyond his own level - but at the price, his physical body will be completely transformed and devoured by the demonic beast organs, and finally even his soul will be crushed by the riotous magic flow, turning into a humanoid demonic beast that has lost its mind.

This is his last hole card, and it is also the biggest sacrifice he can make.

In front of him, countless geometric machines were rushing in, and they had become vast enough to occupy the entire plain in just a few minutes, and beyond the firmament of World One, in the dark depths of the universe, there was also a cautious and cold will watching all the members of the exploration team. It didn't know what it was that would be able to unleash that terrifying power and wipe out its theoretically indestructible tentacles, so it preferred to hide in the depths of darkness and wait for the time to come.

And it was in such a desperate situation that the countdown to the three-minute start time had not yet been completed.

The silver pillar of light, which was slowly unlocking, suddenly rose into the air, and it revived rapidly in mid-air, even if such a revival would bring irreversible damage to the entire pillar of light, it still accelerated without hesitation, and then made a sound that shocked Priest and the alchemist.

"Fix the self-starting system of the light bar for emergency protocol verification...... Detecting the life signals of the members of the exploration team, two people have died, and the souls are well preserved - the verification has passed, and the danger standard of 'extreme crisis' has been met, and the crisis custody agreement has been implemented. ”

"Allow the Devouring of Matter system to come online, allow unlimited self-replication repairs, allow the activation of gravity-manipulated weapon systems, allow the loading of stellar furnaces—"

As the emotionless voice echoed in the atmosphere, the silver pillar of light, which had collapsed itself due to the emergency start, was completely restored to its original state as if it was like a videotape being played backwards, and the next moment, it immediately split into thousands of incomparably small pillars of light, and in this way, it rushed into countless geometric machines, and was about to rush forward to fight, the alchemist, who was already a little delirious, suddenly felt a heavy punch in his abdomen, and an invisible force swept through his body, Suppressed all the activated demonic beast organs back to their original state, and he also wowed, spitting out all the mixed potions.

Then, with an uproar like the tide of the sea, in a short moment, all the mechanical bodies in front of Priest and the alchemist were eroded by the silver light, even the earth on which these mechanical bodies stood, as if they had lost their gravity, and all of them merged together and suspended in the air, and in just a few seconds, they combined into an incomparably grand, immense, mountain-like silver giant hand.

"Search for hostile targets...... The search was successful. ”

The cold voice echoed in the atmosphere, the giant hand was aimed at the black fog hidden in the cosmic vacuum, and then clenched into a fist in the other party's 'shocked' sluggishness, and in the next moment, the originally emotionless mechanical voice suddenly turned into a man's low and indifferent voice.

"The battle begins."
