Chapter 1341: Chapter 452: Total Annihilation_3

”Alright, let’s do it!”

”You guys retreat quickly as well, we’ll split up and take action immediately!”

...

Thus, the team split in two, with Deputy Sect Leader Fiona and Albert swiftly retreating with two injured members, while Moria and Rein each carried a backpack-shaped radiation protection device and headed to the entrance below.

With the high-level Natural treasure ’Ancient Tree Heart’ as a sort of energy device, Rein didn’t need to expend spiritual power to use witchcraft to resist the current radiation.

Suddenly, Rein sensed something and looked towards the northwest; he had just felt a strong energy wave.

Moria was also slightly taken aback, looking in the same direction, and then glanced at Rein, saying, ”Rein, did you feel it too?”

”Yes, very clearly. It seems to come from the central area of Ferdinand Forest...” Rein nodded.

”Judging from the distance and the intensity of the energy wave we sensed, I’m afraid it’s at the Demigod level. It seems the situation with the elves is worse than we imagined.” Moria pondered for a moment, then added.

....

Meanwhile.

At Station Seven, Lambert, Anna, Olena, and several other women were all showing shock as they quickly looked through the window towards the center of Ferdinand Forest.

Even from such a distant location, a green pillar of light soared into the sky, piercing the heavens!

Then slowly contracted and calmed down, but the intense energy wave was like a tsunami, spreading in all directions.

”This level of energy fluctuation...” Even the strongest Lambert was quite shocked.

”This... is not good! This energy fluctuation... it must be the ancient Defensive Crystal Tower being destroyed.” Elder Alderan suddenly realized something, his face full of horror, and said.

”What? Grandpa Alderan, that means...?” Anna covered her mouth in shock and exclaimed.

”Not yet... I’ve heard by chance from a great elf commander that there are five Defensive Crystal Towers, and as long as three remain standing, the ’Crystal Barrier’ won’t disappear.”

....

In the sky heading from Station One to Ferdinand City.

A large airship was flying quickly, escorted by two teams of Griffin Knights.

Faced with the sudden and intense energy wave and green pillar of light from afar, the airship’s deck soon filled with powerful knights and wizards of various kinds.

Leading them was the Guardian with the title of ’Emperor Barrier’, Lothar!

A spiritual yet grey-haired elder slowly walked to Lothar’s side, his face slightly solemn, and said:

”Your Crown, according to the highly confidential imperial intelligence, the large-scale natural energy fluctuation is most likely due to the explosion of the elves’ Defensive Crystal Tower.”

Your Crown, a title more respectful than Your Excellency, often used for the Imperial Royal Family and Imperial Guardians.

The elder held a short stick and wore an unassuming light-gray wizard robe. Others couldn’t even sense any spiritual power from him, making him resemble a neighborly grandfather, but he was a rare Fourth Level Dawn Wizard.

More precisely, a Dawn Wizard specialized in the Earth Element.

His name was Reginald, titled ’Earth’s Pulse’, also the second Imperial Guardian sent by the high command.

”Lord Reginald, it seems we must speed up. However, I’m more curious about the purpose of the Mother Tree Sect’s actions this time.” Lothar nodded, looking equally serious, and spoke.

...

Within the Valziger Ruins.

As Moria recited a slightly lengthy spell, with a ’click’, a certain buckle on the thick metal grille in front of him loosened.

Then, a dense sound of gears turning arose!

The thick metal grille slowly moved aside, revealing an entrance four to five people wide and over ten meters high.

”Don’t underestimate this metal grille. Even though we are Metal Series Wizards and master the Metal Morphing Spell, this metal grille has undergone special engraving enhancement. Additionally, the passageway is arranged with a solidifying Witch Array, making it nearly impossible to damage it with the Metal Morphing Spell.”

”Fortunately, we previously discovered a diary with recorded spells for passage among the relics of some Valziger School Wizards.”

Moria explained softly to Rein as they walked.

Rein nodded, having sensed it earlier.

The pitch-black, thick metal grille in front of them seemed extraordinary, with obscure and intricate engravings on its surface; this seemed to explain why numerous Stone Palate Monsters over the years had never managed to destroy it and enter the core.

Once Rein stepped inside, he found himself in a spacious passage.

The wall lamps inside the passage had long failed, but with Rein’s Dark Vision, he could see everything clearly.

The walls on both sides of the passage were thick and gray, with artfully designed alcoves every few or several meters, and Rein even saw some round, barrel-like apertures reminiscent of cannon barrels.

At the deepest end of the passage seemed to be a door, and at the door, he could see two enormous golems over eight meters tall.

The golems were made entirely of a special type of stone, with extremely thick limbs and bodies, unarmed, but the stone fists they tightly clutched were particularly large compared to their bodies, like two massive millstones.

”Do you see those two golems? These are Furious Fist War Golems, and the specific blueprints for their creation have been lost for many years. If those old guys from the school Rock System were here, they’d probably be delighted. However, it’s quite the hassle for us.”

”Previously, when I used a small puppet to explore here, I triggered these Furious Fist War Golems with strength approximately at the Legendary Peak level.”

”Rein, later you’ll deal with the golem on the left, and I’ll handle the one on the right. If possible, try not to damage them too severely.” Moria looked at Rein and spoke softly.

”Sect Leader, perhaps it’s not necessary to be so troublesome. Leave it all to me.”
