Dimensional Codex System I M Really Not A Cultist
/ Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist! Chapter 495
Chapter 495: Chapter 494: Chaos Land in the Deep Night Chapter 495: Chapter 494: Chaos Land in the Deep Night “This is the power of God.”
Watching the Moth Lord retreating amidst the artillery fire, Knight Commander Wells gripped his longsword tightly. He knew that Demon Beast Lords resided deep in this region, but even he, the Knight Commander, was definitely not willing to confront a Demon Beast Lord in such a place.
As he had previously told Fang Zheng, each Demon Beast Lord emitted vast amounts of Chaotic Power, creating a Chaos Force Field. Within the Chaos Force Field, almost all Order Abilities would lose their effect. This was why, although Chaos Monsters rarely had a variety of attack skills and sometimes fought solely with their physical bodies and instincts, they could still pose a massive threat.
Even with the strength of Knight Commander Wells, defeating such a Demon Beast Lord would require his utmost effort and a bit of luck. Although he was a Legendary Powerhouse, his power also had a time limit. Moreover, the Chaos Force Field released by the Demon Beast Lord would gradually weaken the power of Order, so if Wells could not defeat the Demon Beast Lord quickly, he would definitely be the one to suffer.
If this Moth Lord attacked the Northern Fortress, Wells would likely have to intervene personally to hold off the opponent, and with the Moth Lord's bizarre attack methods, frankly, even if he could eventually defeat or even kill the Moth Lord, the Northern Fortress would surely suffer heavy losses.
But now, this powerful Demon Beast Lord, facing those metal warships, was beaten into a miserable state; if not for its inherent Chaos Power, it would probably have been blasted to pieces already!
But now, the situation seemed hardly different.
In the eyes of the Old Paladin, the huge metal warship in front fired several dazzling beams of light, which instantly hit the Moth Lord's body, accompanied by the explosion of flames, the Moth Lord screamed in agony, and its already tattered wings were blown away by a large portion from this strike.
At this moment, the Moth Lord finally could not hold on any longer. Suddenly, the moths surrounding it spiraled down onto its body, quickly filling in the missing parts of its wings, and then it turned around and staggered, trying to escape.
But before it had time to put this thought into action, Knight Commander Wells saw two smaller warships also fire at this moment, hitting the Moth Lord's body with accuracy equal to the huge warships. This time it seemed the Moth Lord finally couldn't bear it any longer, fluttering helplessly in the air like a kite with a broken string, and then it fell toward the ground.
But before it hit the ground, the huge metal warship's cannons fired again, completely engulfing it.
“Boom——!!”
A heart-shaking, deep booming sound erupted, and even Wells trembled slightly. He watched the huge fire cloud slowly rise and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
This power… indeed is not something mortals can control.
Since Fang Zheng adopted a steady and careful tactic, everyone's progress was not fast. They first had to fend off the attacks of the demon beasts, then needed to construct Crystal Towers and Photon Cannons to form the most basic defense line, and after ensuring these defenses were stable, they would set off again, continuing forward.
Soon, night fell.
Originally in the Chaos Zone, it was difficult to distinguish day from night, but because the Crystal Towers stabilized the order, the area where everyone was located could now be distinguished between day and night. In the darkness, most warriors had already rested. Strictly speaking, they should have been more vigilant in such a place, but due to the metal warships overhead, along with the bright radiance emitted from the surrounding Crystal Towers and Photon Cannons, these paladins, clerics, and mages also relaxed quite a bit. Except for some sentries, everyone else had already gone to rest.
“I never thought I would set foot on this land again.”
While leisurely walking in the wilderness and looking at the land before him, Wells couldn't help but sigh. He looked up, gazing around. Everything in front of his eyes was incredibly desolate. Under the erosion of Chaotic Power, the life here had already withered, transforming into vile and evil forms. But…
“Grandpa?”
Just at that moment, a girl's voice sounded, and Wells turned his head to see a blonde girl in a black uniform sitting on a nearby rock, holding a strange weapon and curiously watching him. Wells recognized this girl; she was one of the first to follow Fang Zheng here, and her weapon was also different from others' – everyone else used rectangular, odd Magitech Weapons, but this girl's looked like a miniaturized Magitech Cannon, and Wells had seen her loading “cannonballs” into it, suggesting its operating principle must be similar to that of a Magitech Cannon.
“It's so late, aren't you going to sleep?”
“I wanted to come out for a walk and breathe some fresh air.”
Hearing the girl's query, a smile appeared on Wells' stern face, reminded of his granddaughter–sadly, it had been a long time since he had last seen her.
“Why aren't you sleeping, little girl? Your companions seem to have already returned to the warship.”
The Cursed Children did not station themselves on the ground like the Sanctuary's army of the Northlands. At night, aside from a few who stayed behind to help keep watch, the others were directly teleported back to rest on the warships. These warships originally required thousands of people to operate them, but now, with the Mind Model of the Sea Mist, a vast amount of space had been freed up, enough to provide these children with three-bedroom apartments to spare.
That is to say, while the Sanctuary's warriors on the ground slept in tents, the children above lay in beds, watching TV and browsing the internet on their phones, chatting and playing games with their companions from the Heavenly Dao Palace…
“I am an owl-type Coordinator, the night is my domain, old man, so don't worry. I'm more alert at night. Sleeping during the day is just as good for me.”
While gently answering, the girl smiled slightly at Wells. Wells nodded in response, then turned his head and looked ahead.
“You… aren't you afraid? Being here, fighting these creatures?”
“Rather than saying I'm afraid, I've gotten used to it.”
Hearing Wells's question, the girl tilted her head and thought for a moment.
“After all, we've fought similar creatures in other worlds, and they're pretty much like the ones here. Ah, of course, not all the sisters are capable of combat missions. But the sisters who came this time are all capable warriors, so we have nothing to fear, and besides…”
At this point, the girl revealed a joyous smile.
“… Brother Fang Zheng will protect us.”
“Is that so… It seems he treats you all well…”
“Of course.”
Facing Wells's sentiment, the girl also nodded.
“It's Brother Fang Zheng who gave us the lives we have now. Everyone likes Brother Fang Zheng very much and is willing to fight for him. The only thing we do is what we can, and moreover…”
However, just as she was speaking, the girl suddenly stopped, then Wells saw her abruptly raise the strange weapon in her hand and aim it forward–her azure eyes turning red in an instant.
“… Huh?”
What puzzled Wells was that the girl did not attack this time; instead, she carefully looked at the spot shrouded in darkness ahead, then lowered her weapon.
“How strange…”
“What happened? What's going on?”
Seeing this, Wells couldn't help but ask, and the girl nodded.
“I just saw a creature flying towards us. I thought it was planning to attack us under the cover of night, but before I even fired, it had already fallen dead on the ground…”
“That's strange?”
Hearing the girl's response, Wells also furrowed his brow and looked ahead.
“I'll go check.”
“I'll go too, old man.”
