Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1207: Huan Tiansi: Dead Look

Aiwass stared at the second sun hanging in the crimson sky in silence.

He was not burned by it because he had strong enough resistance.

At this moment, fires had begun to burn in the streets - the cotton and linen on the ground had begun to burn, and the silk clothes on some rich free people began to blacken and smoke; the water in the canal trembled slightly and began to shake like an earthquake; the air began to distort and blur, like the wind heated above the barbecue grill.

People exclaimed, screamed, and ran in increasing panic.

Their skin was burned by the heat and blisters formed... You know, the Parthians are more heat-resistant than people from other places, but even they couldn't withstand this kind of heat.

It was a huge fireball hanging in the sky, as big as the sun.

It was a scene like the end of the world.

If I have to describe it, I can only use the metaphor of "God's wrath" -

The vortex of flames formed around the fireball pulled the clouds apart like shredded cotton candy, which showed that it was quite high.

And it can be so huge and clear at such a height, the diameter of the fireball must be more than a kilometer; similarly, if the heat can reach such a level at such a height, the temperature of its core part is unimaginable.

“…Is this really something a fifth-level transcendent can do?”

Adil murmured softly: "Is this the inheritance of knowledge? The glow of the sun... is so spectacular."

He obviously knew who did this, and he even had a clear grasp of the power level of Hassan the Flame Fist.

If a fireball of this magnitude were to fall directly downwards, the entire city would be engulfed in flames.

No mortal could survive that level of heat, not even a corpse would remain.

Under this terrifying heat, one will die the moment of contact and be cremated directly after death.

In an instant, "heaven" can turn into "purgatory" -

"A spell of this scale should be performed in a wizard tower."

Aiwass said: "This is already a strategic spell."

——He couldn't help but feel a little confused. Was Hassan the Flame Fist's level of development of the Tiansi fragments so high?
Even if the power stored in the Tiansi fragment is indeed enough to support him to complete a spell of this scale... but without the assistance of the Mage Tower, can he, a young mage who has only studied magic for a little over ten years, really do such an outrageous thing?
There is no doubt that this spell is designed to massacre the city.

According to the Red Hand theory, the civilians and slaves living in the oasis are all assets of the Good Master. They cannot survive without the Good Master, and the Good Master's strength and power come from them, so killing the civilians is equivalent to severely damaging the Good Master.

This theory sounds outrageous and extreme, even missing the point - but if you know that they are a group of avengers with only one page left in their household registration book, miserable life stories, and deep blood feuds, then all of this seems reasonable.

They have such tragic life experiences, so it is inevitable that they will feel jealousy and hatred towards those who live safely in the city-state... This is also human nature.

For them, perhaps they are not just destroying the good Lord...

And now, this image of "destruction" has become a reality, hanging high in the air.

“Uh-huh—”

The shark next to Aiwass was already breathing heavily.

Her pupils and part of her hair turned blood red, and she was obviously completely stressed. With just one command, she could instantly switch to combat mode and immediately launch a mad attack on the enemy.

As a water-attributed creature of the Path of Love, Shark Shark obviously has a very bad relationship with this scorching hot artificial "sun" - she is particularly not used to this kind of heat.

If she had not transformed into a human form with stronger heat dissipation capabilities, her scales would probably have started to dehydrate and turn white by now.

"A bunch of hysterical, unscrupulous lunatics!"

Adil, who always seemed calm, steady and holy, now showed obvious disgust on his face: "May God punish them! I will now walk the world on behalf of God!"

After saying that, he picked up the amber egg on the table, nodded to Aiwass, and walked out quickly.

Aiwass followed immediately.

He had to see how the other party planned to defend against this move... If he couldn't defend it, Aiwass had to quickly find a way to rescue some people first.

But theoretically speaking, Adil should be able to deal with the Flame Fist - although the Flame Fist has the Heavenly Master fragment in his hand, has a priority equivalent to the sixth energy level, and now that the Flame Heavenly Master has arrived, he happens to have the home advantage...

But Adil himself is a genuine sixth-level extraordinary person.

Coupled with the power of "taboo" and "dusk" provided by the Amber Egg, it is at least on par with the Flame Fist.

And while Flame Fist has the advantage of first move, Adil has the advantage of numbers - spellcasters can release a spell matrix beyond their own strength through resonance casting and joint casting. This is the principle of the Mage Tower, and ritualists are also quite good at it. Aiwass has also seen the ritualists of Noble Red use this trick in Avalon.

The ritualists at that time were only at the second or third level... Even led by a fourth-level master, they could cause considerable trouble to Aiwass.

And now, there are more than a dozen or even dozens of high-quality spellcasters in Paradise City.

As the second largest city-state in the ancient Parthian Empire, there are more than a hundred transcendents belonging to the fourth energy level. Now that they have caught up with the tide of transcendence, coupled with the death of the Fallen Angel, which has revitalized the path of transcendence, several of them have even been promoted to the fifth energy level, and those transcendents who are not yet at the fourth energy level have also been promoted to the fourth energy level.

Adil strode out, his eyes gradually igniting a dim yellow glow. The amber egg in his hand also glowed with a dim yellow light, illuminating the surroundings like gold.

He held the amber egg in his hand like a glowing lantern.

Dozens of priests had now rushed over from all over the temple - among them were humans, trolls, and snakemen. The common point was that they all carried rings of different materials and had black ring patterns painted on their chests or abdomens.

Although they used the dusk power of Yuan Tiansi, they believed in Huan Tiansi. This must be said to be a kind of irony... After all, Yuan Tiansi is also a form of Huan Tiansi.

——Huan Tiansi looks dead.

"Recite the Holy Word!"

Adil shouted loudly: "I am your totem, your father, your god!"

As he chanted, the "lantern" in his hand swung more and more violently.

A dim yellow glow, even close to golden yellow, began to spread outward, isolating the heat outside the barrier. The almost boiling heat almost melted away, and a comfortable coolness accompanied by a damp and fishy smell spread in the air.

People realized that this place was safe, so they ran towards Adil like crazy.

It's like a magic of preservation... As the end point of everything, the Dusk Path naturally has the power to isolate everything.

"You are our totem, our father, our god."

The priests praised in unison.

And in the next moment, something strange happened -

“All those who do not worship God are maggots!

"Kneel down, cheekless people! I command you to offer your flesh and blood to the Weeping One.

"Write me this blood contract: for the sleepless beast is the true face of the Holy Grail!"

As the priests shouted in unison, a disgusting distortion and distortion appeared in the air.

The world seemed to turn upside down in an instant, the wind turned into water, and the earth turned into sky.

Those people who were running towards them in fear were crushed by the invisible wave without even a cry of surprise.

Just like a cake that collapses and shatters under a giant hammer, their bodies melted and shattered easily. The flesh and blood were beaten together and condensed into abstract, translucent blood tentacles.

Like a sea anemone, it unfolded in the air and turned into a shield.

"--What are you doing!"

Aiwass was caught off guard by how this unfolded.

Adil's eyes were full of calmness, even a little helpless and confused.

"It is better to injure a finger than to break an arm; it is better to drown one man than to let a hundred die of thirst. I am their master, and I should let them live - I have such an obligation. Just like protecting my own body."

Adil said seriously: "How do you know they are unwilling to sacrifice?"

That is not the moral concept of "necessary evil" or "premature death".

Instead, he completely regarded those people as his own fingers and arms.

As he said, these slaves were his property and he could not allow them to be killed by the Red Hand.

And similarly...in order to rescue more slaves, it is reasonable to sacrifice some of them.

At this moment, the "sun" in the sky suddenly began to shrink.

The originally huge red fireball began to gradually dim and shrink... but that was not a sign of fading away.

Because soon after it contracted, it suddenly expanded rapidly and shook out countless fireballs!
