Chapter 820: Doomsday
Chapter 820: Doomsday
"When will these two be done fighting?"
Lindsey had set up a temporary rain shelter for himself.
In this sea, a curse of black rain would occasionally fall from the sky.
As the rain flowed down the shelter, Lindsey took the opportunity to observe the battlefield and analyze the situation of both combatants.
Half an hour passed.
The originally formless and intangible Sea Phantom Overlord now utilized its water elemental abilities to condense an elemental body for itself and engaged in combat with the massive Star Sea Turtle.
The awkward situation unfolded here.
Neither side could utilize their own essence abilities to break through the other's defense.
Retreating was not an option, leaving only hand-to-hand combat as a last resort.
The Sea Phantom Overlord had condensed this physical form precisely for this purpose. Unfortunately, it was restrained by the time stasis field and couldn't inflict any significant damage on the Star Sea Turtle.
From a distance, Lindsey gazed into the sky, which was trembling along with the vast sea.
Essence seemed to flow endlessly from the battlefield, and the surrounding sea creatures had all fled.
It was quite a spectacle.
If the seawater nearby were drained, the seabed beneath would be exposed.
The surrounding terrain had undergone significant changes! The mutual attacks of these two seventh-stage powerhouses were literally 'earth-shattering'!
The raging sea churned beneath Lindsey's feet.
As he looked down, he could no longer see the seabed below, and when he looked up, the sky seemed even lower.
The power of the Star Sea Turtle and the Sea Phantom Overlord occupied his entire perception.
But at that moment, a sense of crisis arose within him, a feeling he couldn't quite explain.
It was as if some extremely deadly entity was about to appear in this area.
"Er... Did I forget something?"
"Huh?"
Soon, Lindsey realized where things had gone awry.
The sky was indeed lowering—it wasn't an illusion.
The nearby sea wasn't just the sky; the airflow around was becoming more turbulent, the seawater beneath his feet was rapidly churning, and the entire world seemed to be guiding him into a watery vortex.
But the cause of all this.
Was not the abilities of the Sea Phantom Overlord or the Star Sea Turtle; it was a natural phenomenon causing these changes!
"..."
"..."
After a few seconds of stupor, Lindsey realized what he had forgotten.
"The Sea Catastrophe!"
"How could I have forgotten about this!"
At the beginning, Lindsey's use of this curse had indeed caused quite a bit of trouble for the Star Sea Turtle, even angering it.
But after the volcanic eruption and the thunder and lightning.
The effects of the Sea Catastrophe curse seemed to have subsided, as if bidding farewell to this battlefield.
In reality, though?
The equipment's attributes didn't lie; it was said that as long as one was at sea, they would never die. So, it was absolutely relentless!
"So, the rest was just to brew an even greater crisis!"
"..."
Gulp—
Lindsey couldn't help but swallow.
At this moment, he looked up at the increasingly gloomy sky, and the ominous premonition grew more urgent. Even the Sky Compass in his equipment panel roared, warning him of the impending crisis!
"What natural disasters are there?"
"Earthquakes, hurricanes, flash floods, volcanic eruptions, cyclones..."
Lindsey's mind flashed with various targets.
But as he went through them, none seemed to fit the current situation.
Then, he looked up at the sky again.
"What could be falling from the sky?"
"Hahaha—"
"It must be a meteorite!"
A whoosh sound filled the air.
The dark clouds suddenly tore open, or rather, a circular gap was forced apart, revealing a massive rocky surface engulfed in flames, its bottom edge exposed to the sky.
"It's a meteorite!!!"
Lindsey shouted in awe.
The meteorite's full extent remained hidden, and he had no idea how vast this object was.
But the current situation was dire—the surrounding seawater rapidly spun, the sky's clouds distorted and deformed, reflecting an abnormal red hue.
Even as a human, Lindsey found breathing incredibly challenging.
The surrounding airflow seemed to have a mind of its own, thick and rapid, and quickly escaping into the distance!
"The Freedom Seal?"
Lindsey attempted to switch to Magic Runes.
Atmospheric Touch responded with a single message—the meteorite was boundless!
"..."
At this moment, as a human, Lindsey didn't know what to say.
He shifted his gaze, intending to observe the now less-than-spectacular scene of two Seventh Stage Beasts engaged in a mutual pummeling.
—The battle concluded.
The Sea Phantom Overlord and Star Sea Turtle simultaneously halted their actions.
They restored peace, seemingly eager to escape this place.
But unfortunately, the meteorite's size was too vast, and their speeds made escape from this location impossible.
The outcome could only be one of two possibilities.
Either they would destroy the meteorite.
Or they would wait for it to fall, altering the nearby terrain... no, transforming the entire ecosystem!
"I... goodbye!"
Lindsey didn't know what to say either.
He had made predictions before, but never imagined that the Ocean Catastrophe would culminate in such a grand spectacle.
All he could do now was switch the Magic Runes on his hand to the Eternal Mark, even self-soothing with a suggestion:
"Escaping underground should be fine, right?"
"In theory—the power of the Eternal Mark allows me to ignore the physical effects of soil. So when this thing crashes down, the pressure on the soil below won't affect my body."
"Hmm..."
"But this still isn't enough insurance!"
Lindsey took stock of his equipment, attributes, and skills.
Facing such a catastrophic event that could destroy the world, standing outside and enduring it was out of the question.
His final decision:
To put on all his defensive gear and then activate a series of Digitalization skills before beginning his descent underground.
The Eternal Mark had a 15-minute duration.
Lindsey didn't have time to calculate a return trip.
He frantically drilled underground, intending to reach the limit before using his equipment's abilities to maintain his breathing, endure the cooldown period, and then retrace his steps back to the surface.
As he descended, an intense vibration shook Lindsey's surroundings.
His guess was correct; the soil, under the impact's compression, didn't harm his body, but the exaggerated sound waves directly pierced his ears.
"Ah?!"
Lindsey immediately activated his Essence.
Fortunately, his Life Essence was strong enough to quickly repair his injured ears.
After the initial impact, several more waves passed through his body. With Digitalization and his robust physique, Lindsey endured and opened the map.
As expected, the sky above was in chaos.
The hostile red mark symbolizing the enemy vanished without a trace, not a hint of its presence remaining.
