/ Endless Journey: Infinite Realms 354 We are happy that you accepted our invitation
Every existing TimeMaster on the whole planet were latched on by these tendrils, with each tendril hanging on the head of one TimeMaster.
This spreading out phenomenon continued on happening until every single TImeMaster in the world were all affected by Andrea's spell.
"Good." CEO Smith muttered as he saw the effect of Andrea's spell. "Now all that Andrea have to do is talk."
The spell that Andrea just used, which was called [T-MANIFEST: TUTTI], was a spell that uses the concept of 'PRESENT TIME'.
With a few minor alterations on the time stream, [T-MANIFEST: TUTTI] allows someone like Andrea to give a message to everyone at the same moment in time.
It doesn't matter where everyone is, or how far they are from Andrea herself.
They only have to be connected to her through the tendrils in order to receive the message at the same time.
This allows an easier way to disseminate an organized message, which Andrea badly needed to do now.
Of course because the target of this spell was everyone in the world, the Time Essence needed to perform this was astronomical, although Andrea had enough Time saved for times like these.
"Now that Andrea is about to give out my message, all that we have to do now is wait." CEO Smith muttered to himself as he hovered protectively in front of Andrea.
His wary gaze was still concentrated on the Mountain of Enlightenment, which was still floating on its original position.
Its metallic body continued to let out a bright sheen against the sun, making it look more and more enticing to CEO Smith.
"Since this mountain is a Peak Order 6 Treasure, then why is it not doing anything to attack us right now?" Upon seeing that the Mountain of Enlightenment was still not moving at all, CEO Smith's eyes creased as he thought of this weird action by the mountain. "I'm sure that the ones who control this mountain right now can see us two. Since that was the case, then they should be using this mountain in order to attack us. But instead of doing that, they were only making the Mountain of Enlightenment hover on the same spot since earlier! This… this is a confusing move!"
With the power that the Mountain of Enlightenment had, surely it is powerful enough to create an attack that will pose a challenge on CEO Smith. Just one zap from the mountain might be enough to cause problems for CEO Smith and Andrea.
But no attacks came out of the mountain just like what CEO Smith said. The mountain just floated listlessly in its location, making CEO Smith's anxiety increase.
"If the Mountain of Enlightenment is not attacking us, then what will it do?" CEO Smith thought urgently to himself as he realized that he had stumbled on a possible loophole.
He then cupped his chin as he forced himself to think.
"Maybe… the Mountain of Enlightenment was not made for attacking purposes. Maybe… it was made for purely defensive reasons! Yes, this must be it!" CEO Smith exclaimed as he straightened his body.
He gave his secretary an urgent look, as he realized that they must gather more TImeMasters as early as possible!
"Since they said that they will do an important ritual, they must have taken into consideration the fact that there will be people that will try to obstruct this ritual, just like us." CEO Smith said as he let out a deep breath. "So in order for them to prevent any obstructions from happening, they must have decided to use the power of the Mountain of Enlightenment to defend the ritual! Yes… that should have been their plan!"
In all fairness, this conclusion that CEO Smith had reached sounded both accurate and fair. However, even with the certainty of this conclusion, CEO Smith could still not help but feel as if there was something missing with his conclusion.
"Even if the Mountain of Enlightenment is possibly a good defensive treasure, it still does not clear up the reason for the rebels telling the location of their ritual to us…" CEO Smith muttered as his eyes narrowed in suspicion. "Calling all of us TImeMasters here is tantamount to near suicide! Even with the presence of the Mountain of Enlightenment, there is a high chance that the ritual will still fail! Wait… ritual? Don't tell me?"
CEO Smith's body then paused as a new, horrifying thought began to take seed in his mind.
He tried to ignore this thought, but the more that he thought about this, the more that this horrifying thought seemed to be acceptable.
"Ritual… Mountain of Enlightenment… Order 6 Treasure… Sacrifice…" As CEO Smith muttered these words continuously, his face turned more and more pale, as if each utterance was slowly taking his life away from him.
"No! This is not good at all!" CEO Smith shouted as he turned to face his secretary, who was still engrossed on her spell. "I must stop the TimeMasters from coming here!"
CEO Smith then rushed towards Andrea, as he attempted to stop her from sending his message.
But before he could approach her, the green pillar covering Andrea has disappeared, leaving the secretary exposed in the air. The green gem on her forehead disappeared too, indicating that her spell was already finished.
"Boss, I have already given the message to every TImeMaster! They will be coming in here any second now!" Andrea said cheerfully as she looked at her boss. "See that boss? They were all scared by your message! I think you should run for-"
"Andrea! Send them another message! Tell those TImeMasters to not come here!" CEO Smith shouted desperately as he clutched Andrea's shoulders. "Faster! Make those TimeMasters go back now!"
"CEO Smith… you're hurting my shoulders…"
"What the hell are you dilly-dallying for? Make those arriving TimeMasters go back right now!" CEO Smith shouted again, this time with his spit raining all over Andrea's face.
"Um, okay boss…"
Seeing her boss' sudden change in attitude, Andrea did not waste any time as she attempted to channel the same spell.
She did not inquire on why CEO Smith suddenly changed his command. If he wanted to make those TImeMasters go back, then she will make them go back.
But before Andrea could recreate the gem on her forehead, numerous whooshing sounds filled the air.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"
All around Andrea and her boss, countless TimeMasters appeared out of thin air, with them using their abilities to arrive at this location swiftly.
Their faces were both solemn and excited, as if the prospect of fighting against the rebels had incurred conflicting emotions inside them.
Judging by the numbers of the TImeMasters that has arrived, it was highly likely that more TimeMasters will still arrive later, as the TimeMasters that arrived now were only a minor part of the whole TImeMaster roster.
"Ah! We're screwed now!" Andrea's body jerked as she heard CEO Smith say these words. His voice seemed to be filled with dismay and despair, as if he had suddenly received the worst news in his life.
"Boss, why are you this worried? We have a lot of firepower now! Shouldn't you… be happy?" Andrea muttered as she stared at CEO Smith nervously. "IS there a problem with their arrival?"
"Andrea, you sh-"
[GLORY TO THE IMMORTALS!]
CEO Smith's seemingly urgent answer was cut-off as a manic voice echoed out of the Mountain of Enlightenment.
This voice seemed to carry all the sentiments of all the rebels, as every TImeMaster who heard this started to look at the mountain with fear.
"Everyone! Fall back!" CEO Smith shouted in panic as he grabbed Andrea by her arms. He then started flying away from the mountain, dragging the surprised Andrea with him.
While these two has started to fly away, the manic voice from the mountain continued to talk.
[DOWN TO THE PARASITES!]
After these words were uttered out, the whole Mountain of Enlightenment shuddered again, with its body shaking intensely with each shudder.
"Dong dong dong."
After mountain resumed its shuddering, its body started to show cracks, which then spread on the mountain's surface.
Out of these cracks, a Blood-Red miasma, which was as red as human blood, started to spread out.
Screams of despair and pain accompanied the appearance of this miasma, making CEO Smith's already pale face turn paler.
"Hey! Why are you staring like idiots there! Its already obvious that this whole gig was a trap! So make your escape right now!" CEO Smith said as he saw the blood-red miasma scattering out from the mountain. "Hurry your asses right now, or you might all die!"
"!!!"
These words by CEO Smith must have taken its effect, as the TimeMasters began to use their abilities to move away.
Unfortunately, CEO Smith's warning was a little too late, as the blood-red miasma caught up with the escaping TimeMasters.
They were all swallowed by the blood-red miasma, with their bodies disappearing inside it. There was no indication of what could have happened to them, and there were no signs showing if they were still alive or not.
They all just… disappeared.
The speed of the spread of the blood-red miasma was too much, that there was no TimeMaster near the mountain that has managed to elude it.
Only CEO Smith and Andrea were lucky enough to escape the onslaught of the blood-red glow, and they did not spare a second glance on their comrades, as these two only did their best to escape.
