Aleister used the Soul Flayer's innate ability to transmit telepathic messages to the Necromancer.
"Gerald, tear up that damn scroll quickly."
The Necromancer's movements were half a beat slower. He had not yet recovered from a series of blows.
It was this moment of inertia that killed him.
When Gerald's skinny hands began to cast spells to activate the forbidden spell, Osis had already completed the seal of space teleportation and appeared behind the Necromancer instantly.
A thick demonic arm pierced Gerald's chest and held the unopened scroll firmly in his hand.
Gerald turned his head with difficulty, his pale eyes full of malice.
"Osis, you..."
The big demon pulled out his bloody arm, and then punched the mage's head open.
Gerald's headless body fell to his knees with a thud.
Aleister watched all this with cold eyes.
"Osis, are you worthy of the promotion and cultivation I have given you? You must know that without me, you are nothing in front of Nebiros."
Osis burst out laughing.
"It's really rare. Does the devil still have any conscience? From the moment I opened the door of Talengard, I have been accustomed to living under the mask of hypocrisy. Don't be too conceited, Lord Aleister." , you are just another poor victim of my conspiracy."
The Soul Flayer showed an extremely angry expression, "Then, let me cut off the traitor's head with my own hands and collect the reward from Nebiros after the fall of Star Wind City!"
The Soul Reaver opened its mouth and let out bursts of psychic screams. The remaining demon soldiers became violent and rushed towards the undead around them.
...
In the center of Starwind City, the towering space-time gate still stands.
In the shimmering curtain, one descendant appeared one after another, entering the battlefield with enthusiasm.
After the sentry reported that a large number of demons appeared in the eastern city, there was a brief period of panic in the square.
But soon, the panic was subsided.
The voice of Archangel Tia, who was guarding the door of time and space, spread like a clear spring throughout the audience.
"The Lord has anticipated that the enemy will attack from behind. Ms. Anastasia and General Hart have already gone to intercept. Please be patient. The space-time gate is still safe."
After hearing this news, Pine felt his tense spirit relax a little.
Even the ailing body. It seems much more relaxed.
He struggled to stand up, and after the dizziness and weakness subsided, he looked at the crowded square again.
Suddenly, among the waves of descendants heading towards the outside world, a figure swimming against the tide caught his attention.
It was a short-haired man covered in golden armor and a resolute face.
"It's Liang Yingwei, the president of the Blood Angels Guild. He's not directing operations on the front lines. Why is he here?"
Soon, under Pine's gaze, Liang Yingwei came to the inside of the square and stopped at the most crowded place.
At the same time, a descendant dressed as a mage came to Liang Yingwei and started chatting with him. An inexplicable smile appeared on the corners of their mouths.
It is worth noting that the mage is wearing an inconspicuous gray robe, but is followed by a powerful seventh-level titan.
Pine, who was observing from a distance, suddenly realized.
"It seems that he is here to meet the guild staff."
Suddenly, Pine frowned.
A warning sign surged in his heart.
Every little thing that seemed ordinary seemed out of place and extremely abnormal at the moment.
Although the gray mage possesses a Titan, he does not have any guild logo on him.
And how could the Blood Angel Guild, which has been stationed in the Falcon Principality all year round, recruit Titans?
At this moment, Liang Yingwei took out a dim orb from the space ring. The surface of the bead was filled with an extremely solid magical power.
The gray-robed mage immediately put the orb into his arms.
Even with just a glimpse from a distance, Pine could tell that this orb was definitely extraordinary.
Seeing the suspicious-looking two people ending their conversation and leaving separately, Pine began his action.
Dragging his extremely weak body, he began to run towards the nearest guard.
On the other side, Liang Yingwei looked calm and walked out of the square.
The gray-robed mage left Titan where he was and moved against the crowd.
Pine gradually opened his eyes.
"Their target... is the space-time gate!"
"It's too late to tell the guards!"
A dangerous intuition seized his heart instantly, causing Pine to shout at the top of his lungs.
"Catch that gray-robed mage, he wants to destroy the space-time gate!"
The sudden alarm was like a powerful catalyst, instantly triggering a chain reaction from all parties in the square.
The gray-robed mage was taken aback. Faced with the surrounding human and dark elf guards, he immediately used his flying technique to leap into the air and rush toward the space-time gate.
Liang Yingwei turned around, a vicious look flashed across his upright face, and then he put on a nonchalant expression, lowered his head, and quickly left the square.
After he walked away, many individual players without guild logos suddenly became restless and launched a crazy attack on the Starwind City guards who intercepted the mage.
For a time, the situation in the square was chaotic. Many newcomers who had just been teleported and did not know the truth were at a loss. Only a few players reacted and began to cooperate with the guards to suppress the saboteurs.
However, those individual players were just trying to make the situation more chaotic and reduce the pressure on the gray robe mage. It was obvious that their efforts worked.
For a moment, only the stalker's hand crossbow came and hit the gray-robed mage's magic shield.
Surprisingly, however, these conventional physical attacks were unable to penetrate the shield at all.
Obviously, this mage has powerful magic power that is inconsistent with his low-key appearance, or is carrying powerful equipment. Conventional force and means cannot shoot him down at all.
At this time, Archangel Tia, who was guarding the gate of time and space, waved her wings, led several griffins to fly high into the sky, and quickly arrived in front of the gray-robed mage.
The angel's holy sword chopped off his head, and the sharp claws of the gryphons surrounded him. Just when he was about to succeed, a thick electric light shot out from the crowd below.
Crack!
The lightning arrows cast by the seventh-level titan at close range contain terrifying power. Even if it is hit with the body of an angel, it will still suffer huge damage.
For a moment, Tia's flying momentum stalled, and several other griffins fell downwards with burning wings due to chain attacks from lightning arrows released by the champion creatures.
Tia, who was covered in scorch marks, forcibly overcame the powerful paralysis caused by the thunder and lightning, vibrated her wings violently, and flew high into the sky again.
But in this short moment, the gray-robed mage didn't know what secret method or instrument he used, and his flight speed suddenly accelerated, flying straight past the angel and flying in front of the space-time gate.
Now, no one can stop him.
Countless pairs of eyes in the square, either confused, frightened, or gloating, looked at the mage from a distance, took out the orb, and stood in front of the gate of time and space.
Only then did someone recognize that the round bead in his hand turned out to be the artifact "Origin Power Orb" treasured by Silver City State.
The Origin Power Orb contains extremely powerful magical energy. Once activated, it will detonate in an instant. It is said that this extremely destructive magical energy device was made by ancient treasure-casting craftsmen. Nowadays, the technology has been lost, and only a few of them remain in the world. It is extremely limited, and like the Forbidden Curse Scroll, it is a strategic artifact that uses one less piece.
The expression on the face of the player who had been watching the excitement just now when he recognized the Origin Power Orb suddenly turned into the color of pig liver.
However, it was too late.
The gray-robed mage's incantation was very brief, and the last syllable was recited in an instant.
With a crisp sound that resounded throughout the entire place, a fiery crack appeared on the surface of the orb's magical light.
Immediately, a violent explosion of magic energy engulfed the space-time gate.
