The ground trembled slightly and the street continued to tilt.
The huge structure is rising out of the ground one by one, and each of its limbs is like a blade, shining with cold light. The huge body is like a precision-operated city. Every gear and every rotating rod forms part of this precision instrument. From a distance, it looks like a mechanical forest.
The giant construct insect shook its huge head, and the metal collided with a deafening roar. Four pairs of dark red eyes gathered toward the center, staring down at Fang Plover, which was six or seven stories high.
The remains of the warrior were hanging in its mouthparts. One hand fell off and shattered into pieces with a crash. The brittle fingers flew several meters away and were covered with a thick layer of frost.
Fang Plover's back was covered in cold sweat, but he still managed to remain calm. He suddenly looked at the wanderer not far away, his heart moved, and he moved his mouth: "Attack!"
Sure enough, the wanderer had been paying attention to this direction. When he saw his mouth shape, he was so frightened that he turned around and ran away without knowing what was going on.
"That's not his dragon knight, don't move!" Kaka exclaimed from the sky.
But it was too late.
The giant insect's four pairs of eyes squeaked back to capture the presence of the wanderer, and it suddenly raised its body and let out a sharp whistle. The huge body hit the ground like a falling hammer.
The wanderer only felt a shadow covering his head. He turned back in despair, and saw a copper wall pressing towards him. He only had time to let out a scream of terror, the ground shook, and a cloud of smoke filled the air.
The giant construct insect in the smoke slowly turned around, revealing the rotating toothed disc and jet in the mouthparts. Only then did the clockwork goblin in mid-air realize that something was wrong, and the previous sound also revealed its existence.
It suddenly rose up, but a snow-white frost arrow flew out of the mist, hitting its brass shell. The frost shattered the three metal wings and the outer shell of the clockwork fairy, turning them into pieces and flying out.
"ah--"
Kaka let out a low cry of annoyance and suddenly opened his goggles, his face still a little pale.
He was still dazed, but Qiao Li pulled him away from behind, and a flying stone rolled over from the direction where he was originally. Only then did the young man notice that the surroundings had changed drastically. The ruins were shaking and starting to collapse. The original streets almost no longer existed.
"What's wrong?" Canghai Guzhou came over and asked him.
"Thirty thousand Lisels are gone." Kaka sat on the ground and scratched his messy hair, feeling extremely annoyed. "Ah, I really want to die!" Then he lay down on the ground.
Canghai Guzhou has long been accustomed to it, but he still couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Where is that person?"
"Let him escape," the young man replied feebly while lying on the ground, "but he encountered that thing, so he probably can't escape."
I am full of doubts about the word 'should'.
"How about I go take a look?" Qiao Li asked.
Canghai Guzhou glanced at him, but shook his head. "Forget it, it's not a good place to stay here for a long time." He turned around and saw that the ruins in the distance were already a scene of doomsday. The ground was shaking, dust was flying, and the earth was sinking in sections, like waves, intertwining teeth. The entire ruin is denting inward, forming a funnel that pulls everything into the center.
The subsidence soon spread in the direction of the lake. The lake shore collapsed, and the lake water burst out, like a crystal silver line under the moonlight, and then merged into one piece, sparkling with light, and poured into the ruins.
The rushing lake made a deafening roar.
The cracked ground continued to spread outwards, and soon even the foothold in this direction became unstable. Canghai Guzhou grabbed Kaka lying on the ground and hid behind him.
"Go," he said to the others, "get out of this place."
"What's going on?" Kaka was dragged back by the collar by Canghai Guzhou without paying any attention. Instead, he looked at the scene in front of him and asked strangely.
"The Sea Witch entered the central area, causing the upper level of the ruins to collapse."
"What is that thing?"
The last word of this sentence turned into a low cry.
Among the sinking ruins, a long construct dragon suddenly rose up. It was the giant insect that Kaka had seen before - but that was only part of it. Because soon there was a loud noise, and another long dragon rose up again.
"Two?" Kaka rubbed his eyes.
"No, one," Jory said to him, shaking his head.
Kaka turned around in confusion and looked at the old-fashioned knight, but he quickly understood what this sentence meant.
Two giant insect constructs climbed up to the tallest ruins nearby, like two tentacles. Soon more 'tentacles' rose up from the ground, pulling a huge constructed creature up from the center of the sinking.
It was a huge head, with an octopus-like shape, almost one-third the size of the entire ruins, and its huge glowing red pupils were as tall as a building.
It rumbled upward like a hill.
The roar has overwhelmed everything, even Kaka's own voice. He saw birds flying in the forest, covering the sky and the earth, and not far away, Canghai Guzhou and other people opened and closed their mouths, as if they were performing a mime.
But at this time, people didn't care anymore and ran out desperately.
"What on earth is that?" Kaka asked loudly.
No one could hear him at all. Only Qiao Li read his question from his expression and answered: "The giant construct - the early form of the Dragon Knight."
"What did you say?" Kaka looked at Qiao Li's mouth opening and closing in confusion.
But Jory didn't answer him again.
Because the answer is useless——
The overwhelming number of birds are flying out of the basin, forming a magnificent spectacle. However, Fang Plover didn't even have time to cast a glance. He climbed up desperately, and two giant insect constructs ran rampant behind him, smashing through the building and chasing after him.
The sharp screams were still ringing in his ears. Before the opponent rushed up, Fang Plover jumped to the side with all his strength. The giant construct insect crashed past where he was originally with a roar like a long dragon.
Fang Plover landed on the outer wall of an elf building, rolled a few times, and got up in disgrace.
At this moment, because the street surface is no longer just tilted, but rises towards the center at an angle of forty or fifty degrees, the side walls of the original ruins buildings have now become three-dimensional platforms that can be stepped on.
However, these platforms are not stable and from time to time they will disintegrate due to their own weight and fall down the slope.
Fang Plover did not dare to stay any longer and continued to climb up. He only glanced back, and the red light flashing gaze of the giant creature in the center of the funnel seemed to be falling on him, and several giant construct bugs suddenly bumped into him.
Fang Yu was in trouble and couldn't explain, and then he understood what the Yin Zhiyi woman said, 'It's not as big as you see', but he would rather never understand it.
The straightened giant insect was inserted like a pillar. Fang Plover rolled and climbed, and the buildings collapsed one after another behind him. The flying rubble left a blood mark on his eyebrows like a knife, and blood suddenly flowed out.
Half of his field of vision was covered with blood. He wiped it again and again but couldn't get it clean. He was panting like an ox and felt that he had almost reached his limit.
At this time, the first giant insect construct had turned back from the front, and four pairs of dark red eyes saw him from a block away. Fang Yu felt chilled all over. The nearest building was seven or eight meters away, and he couldn't jump that far at all.
The giant insect rolled back its body and swept over with a sharp whistle. Fang Plover himself yelled, and he didn't know where he got the courage to leap forward. He tried his best to grab it, but his hand still came up empty.
He fell down, fell five to six meters and fell heavily on the outer wall of another building. His whole body seemed to be falling apart and he could not get up again.
Fang Yu felt that his left hand should be fractured and several ribs were broken. He couldn't feel what was going on underneath yet, but the good news was that his legs seemed to be still usable.
But the bad news is that the giant insect construct finally intercepted him.
Five or six giant insects shook their huge bodies, as if they were watching, and countless dark red eyes looked at him lying flat on the outer wall of the building.
Fang Yu felt despair in his heart, thinking that this time it was really over. He even boasted to Miss Scarpet, but he was about to be slapped in the face. But this really doesn't blame him for not trying his best, it's just that his life and career are still too reluctant in this environment.
He made an excuse, but his face still felt a little hot.
But I felt relieved, forget it - Fang Yu thought. Just die, just go with everyone, and at most let Miss Scarpet smile a little longer. Anyway, Miss Scarpet looks pretty when she smiles.
Moreover, he is not an official chosen one. What can he say about losing to such a monster?
The only regret that Fang Plover felt now was that he couldn't see the 'monster' in the center of the ruins from this direction.
That was a big guy. He had never seen anything so shocking with his own eyes. It's like the floating island whale in the second world on TV, maybe only slightly smaller than the giant kun.
It is higher than a hill, and the dark red eye holes are probably about ten meters in diameter, almost like two huge caves. He recalled the appearance of the thing bit by bit, and couldn't help but wonder how the ancient alchemists created such a masterpiece.
A shadow fell over him.
The two giant insect constructs pressed down one after another, and they fell like a mountain amid the sharp sound of whistles, forming a thick black under his eyes. Fang Plover turned around and looked at him without fear - but at this moment, he heard a series of breaking sounds coming from underneath him.
A miracle happened. At this time, the building could not bear its own mass and collapsed.
Fang Yu felt his body sink, and his whole body fell downwards.
The direct result was that the two giant insect constructs were smashed into the air one after the other and landed not far behind him. In the diffuse smoke, stones fell like rain, hitting him with a spluttering sound.
But instead of feeling any pain, Fang Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing, even to the point of tears. He didn't expect that he would encounter such a dramatic scene.
The entire ruins belt is breaking and sinking, gradually exposing the underground parts. Block after block collapsed, and trees were uprooted and swallowed under the soil. Fang Plover saw all kinds of debris falling downwards with him.
He even saw the musketeer from the Red Jacket Team.
The opponent's movements were much more flexible than his. He jumped upwards between several well-preserved buildings, but it was of little significance. With a low cracking sound, those buildings and the entire street collapsed together and fell.
A flying stone hit the man, breaking his neck. His head hung strangely to the side, and he fell like a rag doll.
After seeing this scene, Fang Plover came to his senses and was glad that he had slightly better luck than the other party. With great difficulty, he reached back to grab the lever of his magic furnace. It took a lot of effort to adjust his posture and push the lever down.
He heard a soft sound, like the sound of something being inflated, and the metal box behind him suddenly opened.
That was the slow-fall component that Miss Scarpet gave him, but he didn't expect it to come in handy again.
However, when he thought that the person who gave him this thing was no longer in Aitaria, Fang Plover's heart was filled with a sense of loss. But he had a vague feeling that Miss Scarpet and the others seemed to be still secretly protecting him, just like the pair of magic wings behind him, making his heart feel full of warmth and security.
But that’s also a heavy weight——
Fang Yu carefully adjusted his posture to avoid hitting the boulders and debris falling from all around, but he was really lucky, and those rolling stones avoided him by accident. The only thing that made Fang Yu worried a little was the giant insect constructs - when he realized that those 'giant insects' were actually part of the 'constructed octopus', he understood that they did not need to rely on the ground to move.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise his head.
But it's okay not to look up. One look makes me want to slap myself.
Because he saw a shadow pressing down on him.
Not the remains of a building.
But those two giant insect constructs——
At that moment, Fang Plover had never realized so clearly as at this moment that he was actually a crow's mouth.
…
When he opened his eyes again, what he saw was a sinkhole.
In the sky above our heads, the darkness of night was fading away, and a layer of light fish belly white was revealed in the east, sparsely dotted with a few stars, and still had a light purple color, but it had gradually become transparent.
The surrounding cliffs are at least a hundred meters high, and the lake water hangs down from the cliffs, forming a bright waterfall that roars not far away.
The ruins on the ground had completely collapsed, which showed that there was such a cavity underneath it. It was even possible that this was the underground part of the ruins itself. Fang Plover suddenly realized this. But what surprised him even more was that he didn't die——
He tried to move, but he couldn't move. Apart from being able to blink, breathe, hear and see, he couldn't even move his little finger.
Fang Yu was a little confused about what state he should be in now, or should he be in such a state after the death of the Aitalian? Until he chooses to be resurrected or return to the real world?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a huge panic in his heart.
The fear is not death.
But he thought that if everyone was like this, then didn't Miss Scarpet watch him cry like a fool and still talk to herself and feel sorry for herself? Gods of Etalia, when he thought about this possibility, if it really existed, Fang Yu felt like his brain was exploding - isn't this the legendary public execution?
He really wished he could turn back time and start over—
But suddenly, a flash of azure light shone into Fang Plion's eyes, leaving him stunned. He then realized that the light had always been there, but he had subconsciously ignored it in his previous thoughts. He worked hard to move his eyes downwards, and finally found the source of the light.
The light actually radiated from his heart.
Fang Plover couldn't help but open his mouth. He immediately discovered an even more incredible scene. The light was repairing his body. Both the previous fractures and the earliest injuries on his hands were slowly healing under the light of this light.
"...Is that Mia's dagger?"
That blue light reminded him of something similar.
Fang Yu only remembered that he had seen the same light on the star dagger, and that the dagger even left a strange mark on his forehead before disappearing. Even Miss Scarpe and the female wanderer of Silver Shadow You should have seen it too.
Only this could explain what was happening to him right now, and Fang Plover even had a vague feeling that the light was not actually healing his wounds.
But resurrecting him.
He has never seen such a powerful healing ability in Aitaria. The main abilities of healers in this world are not healing and resuscitation, but stabilizing injuries, restoring physical strength and recharging shields. It is absolutely impossible to let a person The dying person is alive and well.
He waited quietly for a while, and the light gradually faded away. And he also regained control of his body. He climbed up and took a look at the cloth on his hand - his skin was as white as new and there were no wounds at all.
At this time, Fang Yu had basically determined something in his mind, but he still carefully stretched his body. As expected, there was nothing uncomfortable, but there was a slight numbness in the fractured part of his left hand, which seemed to be because the bones had not fully grown.
He gasped.
Resurrection ability, isn't that the top skill possessed by the legendary dragon knight?
It is said that before the dragon knight is about to die, he can consume the holy crystal, the carrier of the dragon soul, to revive himself once, and this time he can be resurrected without consuming starlight at all. It's just that this legend has always been passed down by word of mouth in Aitaria, and no one has ever actually seen it.
Because this ability is actually very useless.
However, a dragon knight would rather lose the starlight than consume the holy crystal. Each dragon soul carrier is extremely precious. They may be the only chance for a person to become a dragon knight. Fang Yu knew how many dragon knights there were in the ten major guilds.
Just like that, he looked at his hand and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Miya, what exactly did you give him?
And did she intentionally give the dagger to him?
Fang Yu took a gentle breath to calm himself down. He raised his head and looked around in confusion, and then froze.
The sinkhole was filled with the remains of buildings. Not far away was the waterfall that plummeted down to Bai Lian. Under the bright light, he saw a huge mountain-like thing hidden behind it.
That was the giant construct from before.
