Extraordinary Voyage
Chapter 1056 - 926: Gains and Losses
North Pole, in the high air where the wind howls bitterly.
The colossal entity, resembling a giant elephant made of mountain shadows, with two legs and four arms, swung its long trunk filled with deep sharp teeth toward the golden stream of light beside it, biting fiercely.
In its hands, two pitch-black spiked staffs spun like wheels, exerting tremendous force to protect itself thoroughly.
At this moment, the battle between the two Demigods had forcibly turned into a grand and magnificent war.
"Haah!"
Countless "Adraste," wrapped in golden divine light, shouted simultaneously.
The Angel Legion waved their hands, shooting forth endless golden light towards Kaiamo, with golden spears, javelins, halberds, arrows... even a giant mountain would be torn to pieces by the angel’s divine power.
Even though Kaiamo, sensing the imminent danger, activated [Shadow Authority] to hide in another dimension, it still found no escape; if one couldn’t even attack the enemy, how could they speak of [Victory]?
Though the [Victory Angel] does not guarantee eternal victory, it allows him to seize every opportunity in any battle and competition.
In terms of size alone, the two sides were like ants vs. an elephant, but regrettably, the Angel Legion was a formidable army of army ants.
Finding an opportunity to enter, dissecting with precision.
In no time, the [Dark Ruler], as a wild Demigod, had already fallen into a disadvantage; defeat was only a matter of time.
On the other side, the scene of [Truth Embodiment: Hephaestus Square] versus [Truth Embodiment: Deep Dark Living Flame] was even more terrifying.
It was as if another sun had appeared between heaven and earth; the [Deep Dark Living Flame] made all creatures in the Arctic region experience, for the first time, what it meant to be... hot.
Thick fiery clouds surged continuously in the sky, and Cthugya lightly shook its body, making [Meteor Fire Rain] fall across the entire world, causing devastating destruction.
Even though Watt, like Aiven, had just recently ascended, he held no advantage against the seasoned [Truth Embodiment] like Cthugya.
However, for a member of the "Alchemy School," if one couldn’t win, it only meant not enough had been invested.
The shortcut to increasing power is indeed endless investment!
"Fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...
Countless [Dora Cannons] rose like metal towers, menacingly aiming at the sky.
With a length of 42.9 meters, a caliber of 800 mm, and a total weight of 1329 tons, the most terrifying aspect was its shell weight of 7.1 tons, with a firing range of 100 kilometers.
Moreover, the ammunition had received a massive upgrade, now dubbed "Father of Bombs" by Aiven, a super shell.
Each shot using 7 tons of high-explosive fuel generates a destructive power equivalent to 44 tons of TNT, releasing a terrifying shockwave like a small nuclear weapon, and combined with [Black Tin] fragments can shred anything to pieces.
The explosion temperature reached 5000 degrees, reducing all organic matter within a 500-meter radius to ashes, making it the strongest conventional bomb in the world today.
Although these were outdated technologies passed down to Watt after Aiven acquired nuclear bomb capabilities.
But with [Hephaestus Square] claiming to be the industrial mother machine, this product-type weapon had instead shone brilliantly in his hands.
"Father of Bombs" VS "Meteor Fire Rain"... A decisive victory!
Whether it was due to Adraste, the Victory Angel, the scales of victory had already unwaveringly begun to tip toward their side.
However.
As things were looking up, Watt and Adraste felt something.
"Going this big this time?"
They cursed under their breath, quickly leaving their opponents like their tails were on fire, retreating with divine power as two streaks of light shooting away from the battlefield.
Crunch, crunch...
As the "Chaos Worm" sensed the death crisis, swinging countless appendages in a frenzied scratch against [Time Amber].
Boom——!!!
A fiery sphere with a radius of 4600 meters, visible even from 1000 kilometers away, suddenly exploded above the pole.
A mushroom cloud, 40 kilometers wide, rose to a height of 64 kilometers.
The entire atmosphere was stirred by the rising shockwave, with hot winds forming terrifying storms rushing outward, melting all ice caps within a 100-kilometer radius centered at the North Pole.
Even the radio communication on Herag Star was completely disrupted at this moment.
However, after a minute passed, when Aiven’s [Heaven and Earth are One] perception covered that area again.
"Hmm?"
The "Chaos Worm" was still alive!
Moreover, in that massive explosion that seemed to shake even space, it had broken free of the [Time Amber] binding and soared back to the sky.
Even though it was covered in foul stench and charred black, relying on its "Chaos Essence" to switch to a different form, it had indeed not died!
Aiven’s expression darkened slightly, as at the last moment of the [Great Ivan Technique] launch, an extremely powerful psychic body interfered with him for an instant.
This resulted in the unprecedented super hydrogen bomb skimming by the "Chaos Worm" inside [Time Amber] during its rapid flight, missing the core explosion range.
The confusion didn’t last long.
Aiven’s formidable perception soon revealed three unfamiliar faces beside the "Chaos Worm."
Leading them was a giant human head wrapped in light mist, trailing light-tendrils like braids.
A supremely powerful Spirit Realm wizard — [Truth Embodiment: Cassimov’s Skull].
Also known as the [Master’s Skull], like [Deep Dark Living Flame], it was an influential [Truth Embodiment] active many ages ago.
The second figure was a well-known female Evil God.
Appearing as a malformed female infant floating in a chaotic womb, slowly rotating within a cloud of hazel-brown veins, curling weakly.
Accompanied by fuzzy steam, gray-blue limb segments slid around its body.
Those were eight articulated legs and six terrifying tendrils ending in various implements of torture: iron spikes, a brazen bull, an iron maiden, a guillotine...
The [Goddess of Decay and Torture] Casogsa.
It was said that the followers of this Evil God pleased their goddess through horrific blood sacrifices or torture rituals, offering grand spectacles.
The last one, not showcasing a Mythical Form, known as the [Green God], was a fallen [Forest God].
Clad in a formal collar, but above the neck was a cluster of winding green vines, no less chilling than the former two.
Realizing the rescue mission had encountered an unexpected difficulty.
The Evil God’s side, having long prepared backup forces, unhesitantly joined the battle, with nearly all members from unaffiliated groups pouring forth.
Even those with clear allegiance among the Seven Gods, like the "Slaughter Angel," "Angel of Disease," "Just Angel," "Cold Monarch"... were on standby.
Prepared to tear up agreements and reignite divine war, if necessary.
According to the established plan, the extraterrestrial "Chaos Worm" was key to reversing their destiny, perhaps even altering the world’s course.
If it were killed, even merely resealed, the consequences would be unbearably severe for them.
At any cost, they needed to retrieve the "Chaos Worm," capable of interacting with the [Civilization Relic: Möbius Ring] alive!
However, as Aiven’s gaze swept over, cold sweat like a waterfall streamed down the foreheads of the uncertain three Evil Gods.
Even the similarly weakened, "Deep Dark Living Flame" and "Dark Ruler" approached them, joining forces for a total of six Demigod-level beings, but still afforded no sense of safety.
When Aiven once again raised the [Lance of Longinus] in his hand.
Swoosh—!
Coincidentally, a whirling strong wind swept by. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
The six Demigod figures vanished like a dream or illusion, leaving no trace.
[Authority: Mental Illusion]
"Hahaha, Uncle Milan declares witnessing the [Truth Embodiment] today. Where are the Evil Gods? Let me hear your screams!"
Hearing this voice, Aiven breathed a slight sigh of relief, as it wasn’t a complete loss, after all.
