"That’s definitely because... in their expectation, there’s a kind of extremely concentrated and powerful attack that can break through all previous defenses and precisely strike this place..." No one present was foolish, and upon hearing this, everyone slowly revealed an expression of horror: Does it mean?! "
"Exactly that, does it mean!" Ian said gravely, "In Echo’s plan, it’s estimated that there is a very high possibility of encountering an extremely terrifying blow!"
"And this blow can’t even be resisted by the Exotic Species Research Institute’s multi-layered shield that can withstand the Calamity of Heavenly Fall!"
"For that reason, it must forge a strong enough shield for itself to protect its lair!"
Ian took a deep breath and sighed while shaking his head, "And now, the answer has become very clear—Echo is a quite important part of Canaan Moore’s Half-Moon Chaos plan, and the target of the Half-Moon Chaos is only one."
"The Fifth Energy Level powerhouse, the true body of Dust Country Kanpal."
Swallowing, Ian said gratefully, "That said, Kanpal, who once used Split Soul technology to set up Yinaiga, how could he not know the consequence of his Split Soul being captured?"
"And when entangled by other Fifth Energy Levels, the only counterattack he can make is a strike through space, destroying his captured Split Soul together with the captor!"
"This is the danger I prophesied before! If we are still hesitating on the third level or in the Subspace Labyrinth during that time, we will probably be unprepared to take a hit from the Fifth Energy Level powerhouse!"
It’s too likely. Because this speculation is too likely to happen, everyone takes a sharp breath.
"Then let’s hide quickly!"
Sio jumped up in haste, as a True Dragon with inheritance memory, she is probably the deepest among those present in understanding the power of the Fifth Energy Level: "Ian, how long do you think the attack will arrive? If there is still time, we can dig a little deeper..."
The Domain of Void suddenly shook, and at this moment, the exhausted Ian raised his head.
"I’m afraid it’s too late."
He said, "It has arrived."
Above the Firmament, at the distant star’s orbit, and even further into the void, two intertwined points of light cross each other, occasionally bursting out with light like that of the sun.
And at this crossing, one of the points of light suddenly brightens with a deep gray light, like dust.
This light is unclear but can take away all the colors in the world, accompanied by a powerful Subspace fluctuation, the power of the Domain of Void visible to the naked eye is mobilized and then condensed into a beam that falls from beyond the Firmament.
Consequently, the world fades into darkness.
"Oh no... we are really caught up in the Elves’ civil war!"
On the surface, the battle has gradually stopped, and the Fourth Energy Level powerhouses looking upward at the fight in the sky changed color drastically. They watched the ’light’ drop with a seemingly slow but actually rapid speed and shouted loudly: "Everyone retreat—"
This call for retreat is actually unnecessary, as those who could retreat had already retreated hundreds of miles away, and even the surrounding cities and villages were urgently evacuated, even the animals were scared into wild retreat, and around the ruins except for trees that couldn’t be uprooted, there were basically no surviving creatures.
Yet the Fourth Energy Level powerhouses themselves did not have the slightest intention of retreating. They tore open the seal set by Yafada at the fastest speed and then rushed into the ruins, speeding towards the direction of their respective ’Marks’.
As the strongest among the Fourth Energy Levels, as long as the Fifth Energy Level doesn’t strike directly at a vital point, merely the aftermath can’t break them, and the most important and elite exploration teams from various countries are still inside, and must be protected.
Fortunately, most of the Exploration Team members are located deep within the ruins, relying on the hardness of the Exotic Species Research Institute itself and the protection of the Fourth Energy Level, it is still possible to save a life.
"Aina?! Why are you outside?!"
Crown Prince Carlos had just entered the first level of the ruins when he saw his son, limping and severely injured, walking on the Accumulated Water Plains.
This Fourth Energy Level powerhouse was horrified to the core—Aina was on the outermost side of the ruins, without the deep defense of the Exotic Species Research Institute, not even his power could ensure Aina’s survival under the Fifth Energy Level attack! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NoveIＦire.net
Not to mention, if he still wanted to protect the lives of others in the Imperial Exploration Team, he must deploy his Aether Domain around the Exploration Team for defense... but Aina was not nearby, the wasted time could very well be the difference between life and death!
Aina was also stunned for a moment, after being thrown into another labyrinth when Mahdi led the group against the Labyrinth Master and the main battlefield labyrinth shattered.
Although Ian controlled everyone to avoid dangerous areas, excessively using power beyond his limit left Aina extremely weak, and when he slowly walked out of that small labyrinth, the Imperial Grandson found he had arrived at the first level of the labyrinth.
Then, he encountered his father looking bewildered.
Carlos immediately picked up Aina, unfolded Phototransformation, and prepared to escape into the deeper part of the ruins... but the progress of Phototransformation was slower than expected, and the Crown Prince quickly realized it was due to the activated Flame Dragon Blood within his son...
