Five Frozen Centuries - Chapter 327
Chapter 327: Doomsday
The old man could not believe it. His divine weapon was a level-three divine weapon. He could resist 10 attacks even when facing an early-stage Mythical creature. Now, a crack had appeared on his sword. How was this possible?
The giant snake’s eyes were like torches. Its golden eyes kept glowing, and its thoughts were transmitted again. “Perhaps you and I are both wrong. This person might not be human at all!”
After that was said, Wei Huo slashed again. The old man’s protective shield shattered layer by layer and disappeared.
Wei Huo charged over emotionlessly. Golden runes flowed around his body, turning into rings that surrounded him.
The old man’s peak Legendary pressure could not do anything to Wei Huo. The old man lifted the crystal ball as if he wanted to release an invincible shield. However, Wei Huo slashed down and countless cracks appeared on the crystal ball.
In the end, the black sword and the crystal ball shattered and exploded!
The two divine weapons eventually perished together!
The old man sneered, “I’m at the peak of the Legendary stage. You’re only at the late stage of the Legendary stage. You’re not my match!”
However, at that moment, a lightning bolt jumped out of Wei Huo’s hand. It was Zeus’ Mythical weapon. It looked exactly like a bolt of lightning.
The old man was shocked. “What? You have a Mythical weapon?”
The giant snake checked it seriously and said, “This is a replica of the ancient Mythical Zeus’ weapon. It doesn’t even have one-tenth of the original’s strength. Unfortunately, the invading Mythical creatures were killed by the native Mythical creatures on Earth. They were killed by the monsters you mentioned.”
The golden armor and Xiao Liang heard their conversation from afar. The golden armor said, “After all this, it turns out that you humans are the invaders. The monsters in the myths are the heroes protecting Earth. Tsk tsk!”
Xiao Liang said, “There are no heroes or villains in this world. There are only different standpoints.”
In the center of the battlefield, Wei Huo held the lightning bolt and told the old man, “Let’s fight to the death for the sake of survival and our species!”
At that moment, the giant snake had completely blocked the leakage hole. Its huge body was like a continent, but the weight of its enormous body made it unable to move.
It was a World Snake. The reason it had chosen to circle the Earth instead of coiling around it was because it did not want to be burdened by the huge weight of its body. It had swallowed too much material in its early years, rendering its spirit unable to control its body.
It took a long time for the pain of its tail being attacked to be transmitted to its brain. After its brain assessed it, its tail would dodge quickly.
This was the disadvantage of having a huge body. Only by having its spirit envelop its body and steering it without any difficulties could it leave Earth and head to the universe.
That was why many Legendary-level demon beasts chose to turn into humans. Being huge was not a good thing.
The old man sneered. “You want to fight to the death? Child, you’re too naive. Do you think the giant snake can rest easy after blocking this hole? At most, it can only delay Earth’s death. The giant snake will die sooner or later, and its entire body will be washed away by energy. In that case, there’s no need for our race to waste time here!”
After saying that, the old man tried to leave. However, the snake’s Devouring Rule grabbed him.
The snake said, “You are the naive one. Although I can’t move anymore, the Rules can still be used. Is it possible for you to escape?”
Wei Huo did not say anything else. The lightning bolt in his hand was thrown out. The lightning bolt was indeed a Mythical weapon that stabbed toward the old man. The old man was bound by the Rules and could not move at all. He could not even use his domain to protect himself. As soon as he used his domain, he would be devoured by the Devouring Rule. He was no different from an ordinary person now!
The lightning bolt rushed over and penetrated his head. Endless lightning power erupted in his body and tore the old man’s body into pieces. Then, the Devouring Rule devoured the old man’s soul and body crazily.
In the end, the old man sent out a thought. “It’s useless. You will all die. My race will return when the Earth is dead. We will retrieve the giant snake’s body and the divine weapon hidden in it!”
The old man’s last thought was completely devoured by the Devouring Rule.
Then, the battle came to an end. The underwater world disappeared, and the land was affected by the tsunami.
Lu Qiqi and the others approached Wei Huo. Wei Huo had destroyed two Mythical weapons during this battle, but it was not like he had gained nothing. There was no need to mention the large amount of Soul Refining Water he had obtained. He had also obtained the technology of the Atlanteans. It would not be long before they could manufacture a spacecraft that could cross the starry sky.
The golden armor and Xiao Liang observed the giant snake carefully. The golden armor said, “The situation is not good. If this goes on, the Earth Core’s energy will still be spewed out. Earth will not be able to escape this calamity!”
The few of them frowned. Wei Huo asked, “How much time do we have left?”
Xiao Liang observed the area and made an estimation based on his professional point of view. He then said, “About 100 to 200 years!”
Everyone frowned. This was too short. Although 100 to 200 years was enough for humans to manufacture spacecraft, one should not forget that the Zergs were still eyeing them covetously from the sky. The reason they were not attacking was to accumulate strength, as well as because this planet had a protective layer.
However, at that moment, the giant snake’s thoughts were transmitted again. “You’re wrong. To be precise, you have less than 55 years left. If you don’t escape from this planet in 55 years, you will die along with this planet.”
Everyone fell silent. The data obtained by the giant snake was definitely the most accurate. They had not expected the timeframe to be shortened by 50% again. 55 years was really not long. It was hard to say if they could even manufacture a spacecraft that could take all humans away.
After all, although they had obtained all the technology of the Atlanteans, it would take time to digest this technology. It would also take time to collect the materials to make these spaceships. Besides, there were no artificial intelligence robots in the Atlanteans’ Tech Tree. Therefore, ordinary people had to be as proficient in manufacturing as the Atlanteans. The efforts of a generation would not be enough.
They all felt a heavy responsibility.
However, the Prime Minister Black Dragon was a little more relaxed, as he was not human at all. The golden armor was more interested in the technology of the Atlanteans. He could not wait to study the technology of the Atlanteans.
Everyone bowed before the giant snake. The giant snake had used its body to seal the leakage hole, giving the planet a chance to catch its breath for 55 years. It also gave all living creatures on Earth a chance to catch their breath for 55 years. This alone made the giant snake worthy of their respect.
However, the giant snake said, “I’m only doing this for myself. Anyway, I couldn’t leave Earth because I chose the wrong direction to evolve in. Perhaps I can think of something in these 55 years. Saving you guys was just convenient. There’s no need to thank me.”
This giant snake was quite arrogant.
The others bowed again and left. They floated to the surface of the sea. At that moment, a huge change occurred on the surface of the sea!
