Chapter 76 The Thirty-Sixth Dark Ceremony 1
Rumble.

There was a dull thunder in the sky, accompanied by lightning flashing from the sky, and the night watchmen who were rushing to support were caught off guard.

A thunderstorm cloud loomed over the wealthy area.

Lightning flashed through the rolling clouds, basically maintaining a rate of one lightning bolt every six seconds, indiscriminately hitting all targets in range. The first to be hit were those who could fly. The dark clouds struck down more than thirty lightning bolts before slowly dissipating.

In the corner of the villa area.

A short dwarf took back his staff, which was a strange piece of lightning-struck wood with runes unique to the natural tradition carved on it. His fingers holding the staff were slightly charred, as if they had also been hit by the backlash of the lightning. He said in a hurried voice: "The Night Watchmen are here!"

"Let's retreat."

"Let the offspring of the Moth Mother deal with them."

As he spoke, his whole body twitched, and his hair exploded. There was a slight arc of electricity passing through. He couldn't help but complain, "Damn it! Who told me that the druid's seal was useful?"

The poet and the dancer appeared in the shadows. The poet raised his eyebrows and said, "The Night Watchmen are out in full force."

"Get out of the way first."

"Wait for the trainer's pet to come ashore."

As he spoke, the dwarf raised his staff, and with a flash of deep darkness, all members of the Doomsday Circus present became invisible.

Group invisibility.

The dwarf's voice emerged from the darkness and said, "My illusion has been broken."

"They brought some very powerful seals."

"go!"

Suddenly, a dazzling flash of fire appeared in the sky, followed by huge fireballs falling from the sky. They were like missiles washing the ground, and the entire villa was blown into ruins. There were broken and flying debris everywhere. The spreading flames ignited everything nearby, and the surroundings were instantly a sea of ​​fire.

The poet's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "It's a 9th level spell."

"The Death Patrol has arrived!"

The meteor fireballs that fell from the sky covered an area of ​​nearly 100 meters. The impact of the explosion alone destroyed everything nearby. Although the main target was the mother moth offspring that had just hatched from their shells, the aftermath of the explosion still made them in a miserable state.

A hissing sound of insects was heard.

The offspring of the mother moth soared into the sky, its wings spread more than thirty meters wide, and along with the trembling of its scales and feathers, a piece of crystal powder spread in all directions. Suddenly, with its huge body as the center, the area within a radius of three hundred meters was shrouded in rainbow-like light. Those were all powders that refracted a faint light, and the faint fluorescent powder spread in all directions.

The entire villa area was filled with terrified screams.

From the awakening of the offspring of the moth mother to the huge fireball that fell from the sky, the dull explosion sound spread across most of Dorne City. In the darkness, many terrified figures fled in panic. These were residents living around the rich area. Some of them were directly blown into pieces by the fireball that fell from the sky while running around. Some of them just escaped from the room and directly touched the floating fluorescent powder. Then they began to fester all over their bodies, and terrible pustules grew on their bodies, as if they were parasitized by insects.

boom!
Finally, with a muffled explosion, some people's bodies exploded into pieces on the spot, and a dense group of poisonous insects flew out from them.

Swarm of pests.

This is the authority of the heirs of the Old Ones, and it controls the laws of the insects.

The prosperity of life does not only refer to humans, but also includes many insects and even microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses.

The power over life that the Moth Mother possesses is not what humans understand.

"careful!"

"poisonous!"

The warning cries of the Death Patrollers were heard in mid-air. The poisonous fog raised by the moth mother's offspring was spreading in all directions with the wind created by its flapping wings. The colorful powder had different negative states. Some people swelled up and exploded into pieces of meat, and dense swarms of poisonous insects poured out of their corpses. Some people suddenly fell into a deep sleep, and then their bodies curled up and hunched over. A strange oil was secreted from the surface of their skin. In just a few minutes, they had turned into hideous pupae.

What was even more terrifying was the dark green poisonous fog that spread with the breeze. Almost everyone who was touched by it died instantly. Their entire bodies seemed to melt into pus and blood, becoming a breeding ground for microorganisms.

These microorganisms, which are flourishing due to the blessing of the law of life, are multiplying rapidly and directly decomposing humans on the spot.

The poisonous fog is equivalent to triggering an instant death state, just like the Death Cloud Spell, directly killing weak creatures.

The descendants of the past are so terrible!

With the offspring of the mother moth as the center, within a radius of about 300 meters in diameter, there are almost no living creatures, and the spreading poisonous fog is still moving with its body. Along with the strong wind raised by the huge scales, countless fine fluorescent powders are spreading in all directions.

There were heavy casualties in the vicinity of the villa area in the entire city of Dorne. This was an indiscriminate, large-scale, instant death effect. The battle had just begun and thousands of people had died silently nearby.

"Damn it!"

"If Eamon hadn't locked the space portal key, so many innocent people wouldn't have died."

If the mirror space could be opened like in the previous battle, even if the extraordinary people fought fiercely, so many ordinary people would not die.

呲呲呲.

Amid a strange noise, some monsters that had transformed into pupae broke out of their shells. The entire battlefield was surrounded by the sound of flapping wings. Soon, hundreds of half-human, half-moth monsters flew up. They hatched very quickly, as if their life process had been accelerated to a few minutes.

They were like a swarm of insects.

hum!
These half-human, half-moth monsters scattered like a swarm of insects. Ordinary people felt a slight mental pain just by seeing their hideous outlines.

Xiao En's figure stopped outside the poisonous fog.

He acted together with Benjamin, William, Daisy, Jima and others. There were also members of the Black Moon Cult scattered around in the dark. Because of his super strong inspiration, only Sean could see the hidden enemies without any external aid.

As for the antimatter rifle, it is not in Sean's hands at the moment. He handed it over directly to the Night's Watch headquarters, which then distributed it to the Death Patrolman of the Ranger Path.

When it comes to marksmanship, no one is more accurate than a high-level ranger.

"There's a lurking enemy nearby, go find him!"

Xiao En picked up the communicator and said to the member of the Black Moon Cult not far away: "The other party has the ability to cast spells, which may be the poet's path."

In the shadows one hundred meters away, the figure of the trickster assassin, Zels, disappeared on the spot.

The enemies faced by the Night's Watch are not only the descended Moth Mother Offspring, but also the Doomsday Circus that secretly infiltrated Dorne. Although Hank interrupted their dark blood sacrifice with his own life, the Moth Mother Offspring that hatched prematurely still brought huge casualties to the city of Dorne.

boom!
Just as those half-human, half-moth monsters were flying towards Sean and the others, a dull burst of gunfire suddenly rang out in the night sky.

A silver-gray bullet seemed to flash like a stream of light.

The next second, the whole body of the moth mother's offspring exploded, and the hard scales and feathers were torn into pieces like paper. The bullet tore a huge dent in its head with a diameter of about one meter. The hit of the antimatter bullet did not produce a huge explosion. On the contrary, in the head of the moth mother's offspring, all the bones and flesh began to collapse inward, as if matter was gathering, as if a neutron star was shrinking. Countless torn flesh and bones collapsed towards the central cavity, and a dark cavity with a diameter of about ten meters emerged.

The head of the moth mother offspring, along with half of its body, completely disappeared.

Countless pieces of flesh and blood collapsed and compressed inwards, eventually condensing into an extremely dark dot. Until the surrounding space stabilized again, the huge body of the moth mother offspring fell from the sky.

Not far away, a Death Patroller appeared at the top of the bell tower, with a pitch-black antimatter rifle firmly resting on his shoulder. His expression was also extremely shocked, as if he was surprised by its terrifying power.

"Is this an antimatter gun?"

Xiao En felt that his cognition was once again impacted. This was not the antimatter weapon he thought it was. It did not even make a sound of explosion. After hitting the enemy's body, it tore open a ten-meter area like a black hole, swallowing and compressing all material structures, and finally all the matter collapsed into a small black dot.

This scene not only shocked the members of the Doomsday Circus, but even the Night Watchmen who came to support were shocked!

"Is he dead?" William's anxious voice sounded.

He is a warrior who can only run on the ground.

Logically speaking, with such a horrific blow, the offspring of the Moth Mother should be dead. After all, even the entire head and half of the body were completely destroyed.

The flesh and blood was squeezed into a small black dot, and even made a muffled sound when it fell to the ground.

"not dead!"

The voice of Clotilda the Dragonborn came from not far away. Her voice trembled slightly as she said, "It's chrysalis!"

what? !

Xiao En's figure leaped up, took a running start and landed on the eaves. In front of his sight, the offspring of the moth mother had been blown to pieces by antimatter bullets. The ten-meter-long hole swallowed up its entire head and extended from the torso downwards, destroying about one-third of the body.

Its huge body fell from the sky, raising a cloud of fluorescent dust with a dull thud.

But the next second, its body began to change.

The laws of life and death were distorted. This moth offspring, which had no head, actually began to emerge from a cocoon on the spot. Countless silver-white silk threads spread in all directions, absorbing all the flesh and blood nearby, and then countless silk threads like silk wrapped up its body.

A huge cocoon with a diameter of about fifteen meters appeared before everyone's eyes.

The outer layer of strong scales forms the protective shell of the cocoon.

It's being reborn!

This is the authority of the Moth Mother, the death of the old self, the rebirth of the new self, the descendants of the old are reversing the laws of life and death, and are resurrected in a broken body.

Xiao En instantly turned his head to look in the direction of the clock tower and shouted, "One more shot!"

But the next second, his pupils suddenly contracted.

He saw a strange gray-white clown figure emerging from behind the Death Patrolman who was reloading his gun above the clock tower. A grotesque and mocking smile was on his face, and a cold dagger instantly strangled the Death Patrolman in front of him.

Even high-level rangers cannot guard against this sudden sneak attack and assassination.

puff!

A head flew up, blood gushed out, and the death pilgrim who was passing by the high-level ranger was left with only a headless corpse, slowly falling from the top of the bell tower.

It's an assassin!
The opponent's sneak attack method is somewhat similar to that of the mistress, but it is more strange and ruthless than that of the mistress!
"No!" Benjamin roared.

Tick ​​tock!Tick ​​tock!
Amid the sound of ticking clocks, Benjamin's figure disappeared like a slide. Until now, Sean still doesn't know what the holy relic in Benjamin's hand is, but after so many experiences, he has roughly guessed something.

Its ability is a bit like the wizard's 9th level spell 'Time Standstill'.

Because when Benjamin activated it, it was as if he was not on the same time frequency as Sean.

However, the 9th-level spell "Time Standstill" is too high-level, and even a holy relic would find it difficult to retain such a powerful ability.

So Sean guessed that it might be a 6th-level spell of the spiritual path - 'Time Acceleration'!
It allows the user to enter another time frame, with greatly increased speed, making all other living things appear to be standing still.

The effect of this mental spell is not as good as the 9th-level 'Time Standstill', so Sean felt that Benjamin's figure was jumping like a slide. If it was time standing still, he should not feel anything.

The time acceleration of the telepathic path can be considered as a weakened version of time stop.

really!

Benjamin's figure seemed to be on a different time frequency than Sean's. He was like a slide that kept jumping. When Sean caught his figure again.

A silvery-white streak of light streaked across the sky!
Benjamin ran vertically and appeared at the top of the clock tower like a flash, and then just when the Joker was about to get the antimatter rifle, he swung his sword and slashed at his arm.

A splash of blood.

But it was not the blood of a normal person. Benjamin cut off two fingers of the clown, but what flowed out of the enemy's body was grayish-white ink, as if the ink-like liquid was his blood.

"Time accelerates?!" The clown's expression also showed a hint of horror.

His figure was instantly dislocated and swapped.

The real body appeared in the shadow twenty meters away, and a substitute was left in its place. It was cut in half by Benjamin's swing of the light. In the shattered shadow, a strange doll cut in half emerged.

Tick.

The clown listened attentively and heard a slight ticking sound. He stared at Benjamin in front of him and said in surprise: "The [Pocket Watch of Time] is actually in your hand!"

Benjamin didn't give him any chance to buffer. The light in his hand turned into starlight, and the cold light pierced the enemy's vital points. At the same time, his figure approached the clown, and while approaching, he pointed his left sword and stabbed directly at the opponent's heart.

"Jie Jie!"

The clown let out a weird and exaggerated laugh, his figure leaping in the shadows, and he didn't confront Benjamin head-on, as if he had known about his abilities for a long time.

Rumble!
At this moment, a loud noise came from the direction of the dock area in Dorne. When Sean looked up, his pupils shrank slightly, because he saw a huge tentacle hundreds of meters long. A terrifying behemoth that looked like a combination of a manta ray, a moray eel, and an octopus was crawling onto the shore. Amid the terrified and desperate screams of countless people, the huge tentacle covered with suction cups and sharp teeth swept across and directly pushed down the shipyard in the dock area.

The solid walls, the factory's steel bars, and the towering chimneys were all cut in half by this gigantic monster.

——Son of Dagon [heir of the old times]!
Damn.

Why are there two descendants of the past?

"Oh! The animal trainer has started his performance too!..."

The clown's funny figure jumped in the shadows, as if teasing Benjamin, not too far away from him, nor too close to him, just within the range that Benjamin could catch up with. His weird laughter echoed in the night sky: "Although there was a little accident, this grand dark celebration has just begun!"

"Everyone! Please enjoy the last performance of the Doomsday Circus!"

There was a chill in the clown's words.

They came here.

It seemed like he had no intention of leaving alive.
