Chapter 271 The War of Gods Has Begun
Chapter 271 The War of Gods Has Begun
The woman's voice did not come from the air.
It resonates directly in the depths of everyone's consciousness, gentle yet carrying an irresistible majesty.
Step down.
Leave this to me.
The yellowish-brown soil fell into the cauldron silently.
The next moment, the entire rusty bronze cauldron began to shake violently.
It is no longer an inanimate object.
It came back to life.
On the body of the cauldron, dark golden totems lit up, their light flowing and burning away the verdigris and filth on the surface, revealing the ancient and profound texture beneath.
Boom—
The bronze tripod began to increase in size dramatically.
It smashed through the pulsating silver tumor on the ceiling, pushed aside the twisted steel bars, shattered layers of flesh and blood, and grew wildly upwards.
The entire top structure of the underground laboratory was forcibly broken by it.
The rich, ancient scent of loess permeates the entire chaotic space, centered around the tripod.
The disordered gravitational field was forcibly anchored by a more powerful law.
All the rubble, broken pipes, and congealed blood clots floating in mid-air lost their buoyancy at the same time.
They crashed back to the ground with a clattering sound.
The members of the first squad also regained a sense of groundedness.
Zhao Leiguang stumbled and almost fell. He quickly used his shield to brace himself on the ground and glanced at the sky above him with lingering fear.
That place is no longer the ceiling of a laboratory.
Instead, it was the ever-expanding base of the bronze cauldron.
On the ceiling, the multifaceted structure, composed of countless silver mirrors and formed by the fusion of four high-dimensional projections, emitted a silent shriek.
It sensed a threat.
Its existence is being rejected by a completely different law.
All the mirrors of the polyhedron shone brightly.
It is about to launch a dimensional reduction attack, leveling this area along with that strange bronze cauldron.
However, it had no chance.
A hand reached out from inside the bronze cauldron.
That hand was not made of flesh and blood, but rather formed from the purest earth vein energy.
You can see that the loess is its skin, the mountain rocks are its bones, and the flowing underground water veins are the clear lines on its palm.
This giant hand traversed space, ignoring distance.
It grabbed the silver polyhedron that was collapsing inward.
The polyhedron struggled violently, and all its mirrors emitted beams of light powerful enough to cut through dimensions, slicing across the surface of the giant hand.
Useless.
The beams of light that struck the giant hand couldn't even leave a white mark; they were assimilated and absorbed by the thick earth and stone energy.
The five fingers of the giant hand began to close.
Click.
A crisp sound, like shattering glass, exploded in everyone's mind.
That high-dimensional projection fusion, which could not be described by geometry, was directly crushed by that hand.
It did not transform into flesh and blood.
Instead, it shattered into countless silver specks of light that danced in the air.
Each point of light contains the purest high-dimensional energy.
These spots of light did not dissipate.
Like iron filings attracted by a magnet, they were uncontrollably sucked into the huge bronze cauldron below.
The cauldron shook violently.
It was as if an invisible fire had been ignited inside the cauldron.
Those silver specks representing the false laws of the West were repeatedly tempered and forged in the ancient and more fundamental fires of the earth's veins.
Impurities are removed, leaving only the most fundamental fragments of the laws.
A few seconds later.
hum-
A beam of light shot out from the mouth of the cauldron.
A blueprint, shimmering with a seven-colored halo and composed of pure energy, flew out from the mouth of the cauldron.
It drew a perfect arc in the air, avoiding all obstacles, and floated lightly into Lu Yan's outstretched hand.
The blueprints feel warm and smooth to the touch; they have no physical form, yet they possess a real weight.
"child."
The voice of the Goddess Houtu echoed in Lu Yan's mind once again.
"The war of the gods has begun."
"Your level is too low to bear the future of China."
"Use it to break the shackles of the rules."
The sound dissipated.
The giant hand, formed from the earth's vein energy, transformed into specks of yellow light and merged into the surrounding walls.
The rapidly growing bronze cauldron also stopped growing, hovering quietly in the huge cavity, like an unshakable divine mountain connecting heaven and earth.
The previously violent energy storm was completely calmed down.
Amidst the surrounding ruins, tender green seedlings stubbornly emerged from the pits corroded by the black liquid, pushing through the scorched earth.
The stench of blood and flesh and the pungent smell of gunpowder in the air were replaced by the fresh scent of earth after the rain.
Lu Yan lowered his head.
His gaze fell on the blueprints in his hand.
Lines of golden text, composed of mythological laws, automatically appeared on his retina.
[Mythical Immortal Artifact: Breath of Earth Hourglass (Blueprint)]
[Grade: Unique]
[Effect: Distorts time and the law of experience. The wearer and their squad gain 10000% more experience points when killing any non-friendly unit.]
[Note: This item was forged by the Earth Mother from the essence of a false god, combined with the essence of the Breath of Earth, and tempered with the fire of the earth's veins. It was specifically created to break through the growth barriers set up by the gods.]
Ten thousand times.
Lu Yan's fingers gently traced the iridescent light flowing across the drawing.
This is not a simple attribute increase.
This is a game-changing, disruptive force that completely overturns the rules of the game.
He scanned the data from the blueprints directly into the manufacturing sequence of the Void Disk.
"The whole team assembles."
Lu Yan pressed the communicator, which had been restored to its basic functions, and his voice pierced through the tranquility after the disaster.
"Prepare for evacuation."
"Huh? You're leaving already?"
Zhao Leiguang had just caught his breath and was still somewhat taken aback by the vibrant scene around him.
"Shouldn't we clean up the mess?"
He pointed to the tender shoots growing from the wall.
No one answered him.
Xiao Qianyu had already put the Dragon King Battle Halberd back on her back and was checking the buckles of her tactical backpack.
Wen Yue replaced the magazine on the World-Destroying Thunder Crossbow.
Lin Chuxue spat out the stick from the last lollipop and clapped her hands.
Su Yunqing and Shen Xinglin had already stood behind Lu Yan.
Lu Yan did not explain.
He led the way to the huge passage leading upwards, created by the collision of the bronze cauldron.
The team climbed up the sloping ruins.
The moment they burst out of the ground, everyone stopped in their tracks.
The sky over Jin City has broken.
It's no longer like the dark clouds that were gathering before.
It is a true, physical breakage.
Three enormous, ominous silver cross-shaped gates, like three unhealable wounds, stretched across the sky above the city.
They were larger and more stable than any stargate seen on the European battlefield before.
Countless meteorites burning with black flames were being ejected from the three star gates.
Trailing long, fiery tails, they fell straight down into the heart of China like apocalyptic rain.
The alarm blared throughout the entire city.
