The effect of the chestnut ball did not trigger?
No, that's not right!
Chase noticed the short skirt and over-the-knee socks scattered on the ground, immediately realized what was happening, and shouted a reminder: "Quick! Duck your head down!"
"Whatever you do, don't make eye contact with that monster!!"
Fortunately, at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the missing Wendy.
"Please stay calm, everyone. I'm fine," she said.
As Chase expected, a calm voice came from the side.
Upon hearing the sound, the panicked companions looked over and immediately breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
There, an old-fashioned pendulum clock with long, thin, black limbs clung tightly to a rock.
It's easy to tell from the familiar back structure that it was Lucy's Celestial Clock Horrologim that saved Wendy!
"I apologize, Lady Lucy, but due to the special circumstances, I activated the automatic danger detection mode," Hololochim explained.
Recalling her battle with Acnologia, Lucy muttered to herself, "Well, I think I also encountered a pretty big crisis earlier."
He almost died, or rather, he "died" once already!
"Children are not like Lady Lucy," Hololochm said.
"Does that mean I'm thick-skinned?!" Lucy's face instantly turned jagged.
"Waaah, I'm just a little kid," she said.
Hololochm repeated Wendy's words, who had been accidentally injured, "But thank you, Mr. Hololochm." She added.
"Still as long-winded as ever."
Gray, the strongest member of the squad who knew Lucy's Celestial Spirits best, pointed to the clothes scattered on the ground and asked, "So how did these clothes end up here?"
"Time is of the essence, and I can only prioritize protecting Miss Wendy herself."
"So, the Wendy inside right now is—"
"Oh dear!" she said.
"Although Mr. Chase's magic has similar effects to mine, please be very careful."
After Wendy changed into her Protoss attire, Hololochim made his departure, having accomplished his mission.
His effect can only be triggered once in a short period of time.
"Without any intention to kill, simply looking up at them can bring about a fatal disaster. Just who are those monsters?!"
Makarov lowered his head, his expression growing increasingly solemn.
"The others are unclear, but the one that took shape first was Ankhseram, the god of taboos and death."
Mavis walked over slowly and answered his question, causing Lucy and the others' expressions to change drastically.
They had never heard of the name Ankhseram, but with Osiris before them, they were already extremely familiar with the existence and power of the gods!
This time, even Chase looked incredulous.
It's Ankseram!?
Just as Mavis briefly recounted the story of the Ankhseram curse, four other giant shadows around Sirius Island successively "descended".
Ancient, obscure languages emanated from their mouths, their cold yet resonant voices echoing across the entire sea.
Ira—.Nie—.Vegudor—.Mion.—
Everyone was completely confused, but Chess's pupils contracted slightly, indicating that he could roughly understand the meaning.
-
Chess, the counterpart of Yi Yi who traveled from the realm of gods to Edolas, gave him relevant language books, which he could access through Feng Yong's glasses.
Originally intended as preparation for a future journey to the realm of gods, it unexpectedly came in handy here.
From their conversation, Chase quickly learned the identities of the gods present.
Anktheram, the god of taboo and death; Chronos, the god of time; Keraunos, the god of thunder; Phlegein, the god of fire; and Aither, the goddess of the sky.
According to Edchas, there are a total of nine gods in the divine realm.
And whether it's a coincidence or not, all the gods who appeared here were those who had left traces or possessed god-destroying magic in the original work!
"Like a whale swimming freely in the ocean being forcibly crammed into a narrow fish tank, aren't you afraid of being devoured when you descend into this world?" said the God of the Sky.
"Having only one eye won't cause any major problems in the short term. Besides, we are immortal beings, so compared to this..."
The God of Time glanced coldly at the other four gods and questioned, "My descendants reside in this realm; what are you all doing here, getting involved in this commotion?"
"However, products created out of boredom cannot be used as markers of territory, Chronos."
Deep within the giant pupils of the Flame God Fiego, it seemed as if pitch-black flames were burning. "By this standard, there must be books here that record my magic as well."
"That's not the same thing. If you know what's good for you, get back here right now."
"Oh? You want a long-awaited fight after all these centuries?"
"I'm available anytime."
The two gods seemed to have a long-standing feud, and they were about to fight after exchanging only a few words. The thick black mist gurgled and bubbled up into giant bubbles the size of a city, and the divine aura shook the space!
The next second, an even deeper and more intense aura of death surged forth, forcefully suppressing them.
"Our arrival as phantoms has made this space extremely unstable. If you want to fight, go back to the realm of gods," Ankhseram said slowly.
Having endured countless years of boredom and loneliness, and with his curses yielding no decent results, he was naturally unwilling to miss out on something interesting, much less allow it to be interrupted.
Upon hearing this, both the God of Time and the God of Flame fell silent.
They came here with the same purpose in mind.
Seeing this, Ankhseram looked at Thor beside him: "The power of thunder lingers in the air, Keranos, has your plan to destroy the gods succeeded?"
"I investigated when it first arrived; it wasn't magic I bestowed upon it."
Thor's giant pupils crackled with black lightning, a look of utter disdain on his face. "We are both gods who wield the power of thunder, yet you don't even have the courage to face me directly."
It didn't seem very interesting.
"Kronos, can't you trace back time? Why don't you look at what happened here before?" the Flame God asked.
"If you hadn't come to cause trouble, I could have done it easily." The God of Time looked at the constantly cracking sky.
Time can bring the black flames back to a state of annihilation, and the black flames can also completely burn time. There is no absolute suppression between gods; they are in a relationship where neither can do anything about the other.
The aura of five gods has now gathered here, so even his divine power is ineffective.
Of course, even if he could, the arrogant god of time wouldn't do it—he had no reason to obey.
"No need for that. Down here, there's a possibility that some humans have witnessed the whole thing."
With a slight turn of its giant pupils, Ankhseram focused its gaze on Chess and the others on Sirius Island. "Just crush their bodies and extract their souls to probe them."
Unlike Acnologia's condescending view of ants, and unlike Zeref's complex attitude towards life, his tone was incredibly calm and casual.
That's all I thought, and that's all I did.
Whoosh whoosh.
An endless black mist roared out and quickly condensed in the sky into a giant black hand that was powerful enough to crush Sirius Island to pieces!
The giant hand blocked out all light, and endless darkness instantly enveloped the entire Sirius Island. An extremely dense aura of death suddenly erupted!
