Chapter 853 Apocalypse… Ahh?!
When the portal in the space opened, a mechanical arm which was almost as huge as Anton’s giant leg crashed out.
“I made this device with my life. It will help our future Machinist find the item that our countless architects built with their lives. This item will lead us to resist the rule of Bakal. Its name is Gaebolg!” The last Machinist in Empyrean said this before he died.
This was the huge machine summoned by the Mechanic during the first awakening, and it contained the will of the people of Empyrean.
The Empyrean players were all the gunner players who mainly attacked using science and technology.
As the pride of the people of Empyrean, this huge mecha from the alternate space launched its most glorious attack.
Without the protection of its coexisting monsters, Anton received attacks from the Empyrean navy and the teams of adventurers.
The explosive flames at the joints of the turtle legs and the spraying lava swept up dust and smoke all over the sky. Huge waves surged up from all directions. Despite its great power, the Seventh Apostle’s four huge legs finally collapsed with half of its body sinking into the ocean.
Returning to Noble Sky, the tired adventurers sat on the deck to rest without putting down their weapons. Ocean breeze dried the sweat and blood on their faces, but they didn’t have time to wipe them off
“Take the time to get some rest. A fiercer battle will come soon!”
Instead of feeling relaxed after the fierce battle, the people on the battleship looked grim as if a storm would come.
The huge gusts swept up surging waves from the sea and violently crashed them onto the sides of the battleship, spraying water over the rails on the ship.
Looking into the distance, the players examined the core area on Anton after its huge legs were cut off. In the core area, the tall black volcano was now engulfed by an invisible energy shield.
Any outside attacks would be blocked.
It meant that they had to enter the volcano to destroy Anton’s core and annihilate Anton.
If they entered it, the adventurers wouldn’t receive any aid from the outside.
Of course, even without the protective energy shield, Anton’s turtle shell was enough to block attacks from the outside. After all, it had only four legs exposed to the air.
Besides, Anton’s head wasn’t its vital organ, and it was useless to attack it.
Therefore, the first thing that the Challenge Team must do was entering the energy center and destroy the energy transmission that Anton used to form the protective energy shield for the black volcano.
This way, they could enter the interior of the black volcano which would lead them to its vital part.
The second step was suppressing the respawning center inside Anton to stop the respawning monsters and suppress the self-healing of the energy center.
The respawning center produced all kinds of monsters and accelerated the self-healing In Anton’s eyes, they were like parasites in its body.
Once the energy center continued to heal itself, the monsters inside the black volcano would have enough energy to support them and thus would be invincible to any attacks.
The chains of events were tightly linked
When the other teams were in position, it was time to enter the black volcano.
There were five teams, and four of them would try to create the best opportunity for the most powerful team to enter the black volcano. It was the core idea of the whole battle plan.
After the road to the black volcano was opened, the five teams were reorganized.
The most powerful members of Team One and Team Two gathered in one team.
“It looks complicated…” Song Qingfeng and others who were watching from behind gasped, “I feel dizzy just watching you guys do it. Is this monster so difficult to beat?”
“Yeah…” Jiang Xiaoyue ate her peach and said, “In the past, we only met zombie king or headless knights which were killed by a few pokes. We only needed some battle skills at most. But this battle needs such complex cooperation between different teams as you guys take on different enemies?”
She rubbed her tired eyes. Her beautiful big eyes felt dizzy as she watched the complex gameplay.
“Sister Su, do you understand what’s going on?”
At this moment, Su Tianji who was also watching from behind felt dizzy too. “I’m finished… I feel like I can’t understand these games now. Am I getting old?”
“Isn’t it simple?” Beside them, Xiao Yulv summarized in a loud voice, “With the help of the four teams that were chilling, the top figures in Team One finally killed their way into the core of this big turtle!”
“Huh?!” The others brightened with sudden understanding
Jiang Xiaoyue said, “You mean we’ve been watching Sister Xue’er chilling on the side?!”
Nalan Mingxue’s pretty face darkened.
“What chilling?!” Lan Yan was displeased. “My Lady killed the Tog and several monsters who were guarding different places!”
Then, she rolled her eyes at Xiao Yulv and said, “You spout nothing but nonsense; it serves you right that you can’t play.”
Instantly, Xiao Yulv turned red and yelled, “The shop owner… the shop owner told me that I will soon get to play!”
“When you’re allowed to play, a new expansion will be released. You can’t even support others and chill on the side!” Lan Yan said, “Be satisfied as a cloud player!”
“Ah–!” Xiao Yulv howled pathetically, feeling cold inside.
While they bickered, the fight against Anton came to the most important moment.
A pale blue energy light from the black volcano slowly fell from the sky.
He had dark-golden skin and white long hair which stood up on end with the surging energy.
His body emitted overwhelming energy Standing before him, Nalan Hongwu and the others felt like the difference between their own energy and their opponent’s energy was like the difference between the light of fireflies and that of the full moon.
“Give up resisting.”
When he opened his mouth, Anton also opened its mouth. Like thunder, they said at the same time, “Give up resisting.”
Violent flames shot out from the underground. Everything seemed to be in his control.
Irm…11
Before he could finish…
“Hypervigilance!”
“F*ck?! Again?! Awesome! Keep on attacking!”
Instantly, all the attacks transformed into a horrifying storm and devoured their enemy!
“Wave Eye!”
“Ultimate Slay: Tempest!” “Apocalypse… Huh?!”
The boss stood still and didn’t move a finger, but the heroic-looking players who had just used Hypervigilance and Wave Eye were all lying on the ground.
The healer who still had one light orb to cast looked at the boss in the eye in stupefaction. “…”
“Huh…?” Everything was silent around them.
“The volcano exploded!” Nalan Mingxue, who was still suppressing energy, saw a male healer, the only survivor, racing out from the volcano and yelling, “The volcano exploded!”
Boom!
The land shook violently. Behind him, an extremely thick beam of lava erupted from the opening of the volcano and shot into the sky.
Horrifying volcano clouds covered the entire sky as lava fell from above like a world-destroying meteorite shower!
Lava flew everywhere through the crevices on its body. The turtle shell was so hot inside and outside that it was impossible to stand anywhere on it.
Ocean waves surged up high while Anton’s four legs slowly propped it up from the bottom of the ocean, and its dim eyes lit up like stars in the night sky, emitting intense and hot firelights.
