a time.
Surrounded by pain, fear, and wailing.
A lot of tears, snot, saliva... all over the distorted faces full of fear and pain.
Soon, when [King of Illithids] finished a round of eating.
The aura that seemed a little weak due to the initial recovery from the injury also recovered a little.
Layers of magic shields condensed from pure spiritual energy.
After a long time.
Once again, it was automatically shrouded in his body.
Provide him with all-round protection!
Even if it is the breath of a giant dragon, gushing out at close range, it cannot be broken!
However, feeling those familiar protective powers, there was still no joy in his heart.
Yes, still full of gloom.
He is very clear.
Relying on this power alone, it is impossible to deal with [Moll Dege] holding the [Slaughterer], that is, the [Pope] of the [Church of the Bloody King]...
And one of the surrounding [Illithid Elder] saw this situation.
Immediately, he waved his hand, signaled the surrounding servants, and lifted some covered things up.
"Your Majesty, this is the remains that we have kept since the last battle."
"During this operation, you may need to..."
After all, he used his own power to lift the curtain covering it in the air.
The transparent coffins sealed by special spells were revealed!
In it, there is nothing else.
Some are just bodies of [Illithid Elders] that are either severely mutilated or relatively intact.
As a special race that feeds on brains.
【Mind Sickle】It has always been the custom of devouring each other among members of the same race.
In particular, dedicating one's brain to the [Illithid King] is considered a behavior habit in pursuit of eternal life in their customs.
in their minds.
In that way, their consciousness will always exist in the spiritual network.
Reaching the goal of being close to immortality!
Except for some special concepts above customs.
Devouring the brains of the same race will indeed bring different benefits to [Illithids].
After all, an existence that has devoured various brains since childhood, the brain itself will carry various nutrients.
For 【Mind Sid】, it is indeed a great nourishing food!
therefore.
Dozens of corpses of [Illithid Elders] were collected.
For any [Mind Sid], there is no doubt that it is equivalent to a huge treasure.
After eating all of them.
Even the [King of Illithids] can get a lot of benefits from it!
However, after serious thinking for a while.
He refused:
"Under the premise that the opponent has [Slaughterer], whether my individual strength increases or not does not actually affect too many things."
"On the contrary, there are a large number of mid-to-high-end powerhouses. When they disperse their actions, they can affect the overall situation and make the opponent exhausted to save the field."
"So, you should distribute these corpses..."
"Be sure to eat it as soon as possible."
"It's good to add more success rate to this plan..."
Done.
He didn't wait for the other party to shirk, he closed his eyes straight away, and began to carefully adjust his state.
To this, the [Elder Spirit Siphon] could only helplessly respond:
"...Okay, I'll understand later."
Chapter 1012: Attack
three days later.
The long-planned violent attack from [Illithid Empire] was launched as planned.
In the fluctuation of spells.
The crimson hot flame soaring into the sky is like a pillar directly connected to the sky.
Accompanied by endless heat.
It pierced straight into the deepest part of the cloud layer.
In front of that heat, even the clouds were burnt through a big hole without any resistance!
And in the place where the Pillar of Fire originated, that important city located in the hinterland of the [Ghis Empire].
Layer after layer of shock waves seemed to be translucent ring attacks, forcibly crushing most of the buildings in the city and a large number of people to the ground!
Even those giants with rough skin and thick flesh don't have any preferential treatment in front of this force that can tear apart the mountain.
in a blink.
It was torn into countless pieces of meat.
Accompanied by dust and gravel flying wantonly!
It can be said.
Just this round of attacks, the population of the entire city has been reduced by more than 70.00% on the spot, and only a few residents are still lingering...
but.
In the most central area of the attack, as the main target of the attack, all the vitality still hasn't dissipated!
Several [Gith people] who have been living here and performing core guard work are still alive.
As a place where treasures such as the [God Bestowed Scroll] are preserved.
All the time.
All kinds of protective spells are constantly applied here.
The materials used in the entire building are all top-notch treasures.
Various factors add up.
Quite directly, it endowed it with extraordinary and powerful defense power!
Therefore, even if it was a long-prepared charged attack by many [Illithid Elders], it only made it look more damaged.
No matter how stimulated and collided by the surrounding flames, it still stands firm in the attack, quite strong!
However, the current situation cannot give more confidence to the treasure guards after all...
Full of despair.
Still lingering in their hearts...
Because, not long ago, they had confirmed the fact that the surrounding area had been sealed and processed by special spells.
In addition, all the teleportation arrays in the entire city were destroyed in advance...
It can be said.
Compared with other areas in [Ghis Empire], this city has been temporarily isolated, like an isolated island!
Even if the reinforcements sense something is wrong, they want to provide support quickly.
It must also take quite a long time to get here!
And in such a helpless situation.
Even with the geographical advantage, they definitely can't delay it for so long...
After all, those attackers who dared to go deep into the enemy's hinterland could not have been unprepared!
just now.
When I thought about my death, not only my brain might be swallowed by the enemy, but even the [God-given Scroll] that I and others had been guarding could fall into the enemy's hands.
The faces of those guards looked extremely ferocious, very unwilling.
In his mouth, under the urgent thought, he kept saying some polite words.
"%&$# those guys..."
Only in that way can they feel a little better in their hearts.
He ignored the cursing and cursing of colleagues around him, full of anger and some fear.
Looking at the area not far away, those [Illithid Elders] gradually surrounded.
As the leader among the caretakers.
A [Githman] wearing a solemn red robe, after being silent for a while, ordered with a gloomy expression:
"Everyone, although we seem to have no hope of survival."
"But treasures like [God-given Scroll] must not fall into the hands of the enemy!"
"That will inevitably lead to many crises in the future of our family!"
"So, please lend me your last strength, let me forcibly throw the [God-given scroll] into the space-time storm through space magic..."
As the guardian of [God-given Scroll].
Few people are more aware of how useful this thing is than they who have seen a large number of scholars obtain the truth from it.
It is something that carries the knowledge bestowed by the gods, and it is also a treasure that should not appear in the mortal world, enough to promote the progress of the entire civilization!
Once it fell into the hands of [Illithid Empire] due to the mistakes of myself and others.
Then, the opponent, who is already ahead of [Ghis Empire] in terms of civilization, is bound to widen the distance even further!
By then.
It is very likely that even the power of the [Slaughterer] will not be able to bridge that huge gap, so they can die, but the [God-given Scroll] must not fall into the hands of the enemy!
As for, why didn't they destroy things at this last moment with a desperate attitude?
The reason is also very simple.
Because the materials used in [God-given scroll] are too special.
That is derived from the scales on the body of [Giant Cosmos Serpent——Koma]!
It is definitely not a parallel import!
before shrinking.
The entity of that scale is as large as the land plate of the Eurasian continent in terms of surface area alone!
Even if a star explodes or is smelted inside the sun for hundreds of millions of years, there is absolutely no way to leave a single trace on it!
Therefore, just because some [Gods] are not mortals, it is impossible to destroy them!
The only solution is to exile it through space magic.
And at the time when the surrounding area had already been blocked in advance by [Illithid Empire].
