Chapter 73 The World in the Book (Seeking First Subscription)
Above the gray fog.
The fortune teller patted his chest, a hint of lingering fear in his eyes.
"You lousy book..."
He looked at the "Grossell Travels" in front of him, which had just been smeared with elven blood.
Mentioning this book was like kicking a shuttlecock.
This imaginary dragon's backup plan really wants to kill him. If it weren't for the secluded place like the Gray Mist Space, isolated from the outside world, even if Xia'er hadn't been struck by the Lord of Storms and had continued to move around with this book, he would definitely have encountered all sorts of unexpected events.
Fortunately, he had already guessed that things wouldn't go so smoothly, and had offered his blood as a sacrifice to the gray fog space in advance.
After the Storm Lord's indiscriminate ultimate attack wiped out the enemy, it would be difficult for him to perform any more divinations.
Separated by the gray fog space and the world in the book, Xia Er even joked about it.
Inside Grosser's Travels.
Shael fell haphazardly into a forest, his legs trembling, and he tried several times to get up but failed.
He was breathing heavily, processing the deep-seated fear and trembling he felt.
"Damn, the Lord of Storms is really scary, haha."
Shael laughed, his hair gradually receding, his open eyes slowly closing, but the fish scales that grew all over his body still clung to his skin, and his mad and violent aura suppressed the animals in the forest to the point that they dared not make a sound.
Even though it wasn't a direct attack, just a mental imprint, it almost crippled Shael, the half-angel.
Thanks to the Church of Storms, he has consumed another set of Storm Path Sequence 9 to Sequence 4. He has consumed three sets in a row. Even without the natural disaster characteristics in his body, he can barely be considered invincible among his peers at the Saint level.
Xia Er didn't stand on ceremony and ate whatever he wanted. Mr. Future Gate had already eaten three Sequence 2 traits, so what was wrong with him eating a few more low-rank traits? Only a poor person couldn't afford to eat.
"Arods, have you investigated the world depicted in the book thoroughly?"
Chael got up from the ground, clutching his head, and asked the magic mirror inside the island of the mind.
He first touched a real angel, and then was glanced at by a higher deity of this path. He was about to be unable to suppress the calamity characteristics within him, and he estimated that he would soon be promoted to a real calamity.
"I looked into the history of the world in the book, a world with city-states and kingdoms built by humans."
"At the same time, we found the locations of those people you mentioned."
Arodes shared the intelligence he had gathered with Shael.
Giants, elves, ascetics, and even the recently arrived vampire viscounts mostly live in human cities and villages.
"The only thing I'm grateful for is that you're here, so my anchor in the real world won't become useless."
Xiaer marked the location of the elf, and then chose to fuse with the Cataclysmic ability within its body.
The world in the entire book begins to be shrouded in thick, dark clouds.
In the book's fictional world, both the imagined human rulers and commoners look up at the sky in terror.
The giant Grosser, the elf Shatas, the ascetic Snowman, and the vampire viscount watched the lightning leaping in the sky. These Sequence 5 powerhouses had different thoughts, but before they could react, the cataclysm struck!
Thick, dark clouds suddenly covered the sky like an iron curtain, and blinding lightning danced wildly among the clouds, enveloping the entire world in the book in an eerie bluish-white light.
The rulers of the human city-states rushed out of the palace on their knees, while the common people stood up in stunned silence, sobs of terror escaping their throats—the apocalyptic oppression made everyone's knees go weak, as if even the air itself had solidified and pressed down on their spines.
Suddenly, the earth roared deafeningly.
The crack, tens of meters wide, pierced through the ground like the fangs of a giant beast, instantly tearing the majestic city wall and granite temple in half.
As the spire collapsed with a deafening roar, the mother holding her baby and the priest holding the candlestick fell into the ground together, their screams swallowed up by the roar of the earth's movement.
A volcano in the north, dormant for thousands of years, suddenly erupted, sending crimson lava, along with a torrent of boiling ash, sweeping down.
Where the lava flowed, wooden houses burst into flames like pieces of paper, stone fortresses twisted and crumbled in the high temperature, and fleeing crowds turned into burning fireballs, leaving distorted silhouettes on the scorched earth.
The air was thick with the acrid smell of burnt flesh and sulfur, while the billowing volcanic ash had turned half the sky blood red.
The ruler slumped on his jewel-encrusted throne, watching as his capital, which he had ruled for thirty years, was reduced to ruins by thunder and fire.
When a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket shattered the last bell tower, the thunderous crash of the bronze bell falling to the ground seemed to toll the death knell for this fictional civilization.
Chael transformed into a true natural disaster, eradicating the civilization of a nation.
This made his promotion even more perfect, given that he had already completed the promotion ceremony.
Above the gray fog, the "Diviner" will connect with the crimson star representing Shael and the crimson star representing "Butler Ross" through spirituality, making contact with the gray fog space and the power of Arodes, so that Shael's anchor can still help Shael's ascension even in the world of the book.
As if he wanted to test the limits of the world in the book, after destroying the human kingdom in the book, he spread various natural disasters to other "unopened" places, launching a destruction campaign against the "new map" that the world in the book had not yet unfolded.
Roar!Roar!Roar!
A series of dragon roars resounded.
On the snow-covered mountains, giant ice dragons were awakened from their slumber.
Shael stood atop the ruins of a shattered civilization, a longbow compressed from a raging storm appearing in his hand.
Draw the bow and shoot the arrow.
A barrage of lightning bolts struck down the terrified dragon from the sky.
"If Angelweid's resurrection contingency plan is just like this."
"Today I'll just turn the entire world in this book upside down."
Chael awaits further developments in the book.
His powerful mental energy scanned the entire world, searching for any place where something might be amiss.
It is only the beginning of the Fourth Era. In the original timeline, even up to the Fifth Era, this book was able to evolve a guardian like the King of the North. With the passage of three thousand years less, this book should still have more power.
Chael waited for a while, but no further changes occurred.
The world in the book is like a reset, with some survivors appearing in a completely destroyed human kingdom.
These survivors, while painfully calling out to their deceased relatives and friends, began to rebuild their former homes.
Among them were giants, ascetics, and vampires, all of whom were among the survivors, grateful to have been able to come back to life after the catastrophe.
"hehe."
Chael looked again at the snowfield to the north, where it had vanished as if it had never existed.
The destruction he brought to the civilization in the book is considered part of the plot development.
The "main characters" in the book are naturally the lucky ones in the face of natural disasters.
