Chapter 892 - 892 891 The Entrance to the City of Gods

Chapter 892: Chapter 891: The Entrance to the City of Gods Chapter 892: Chapter 891: The Entrance to the City of Gods “Hmph! Enough talk, I’ll kill all these guys eventually…”

The battle that took place inside the alien relics was being keenly observed by Miss Maritzis hiding in the shadows.

She showed considerable disdain for the situation where the group of young knights was completely restrained by their adversaries.

But in the final moments, Han Dong suddenly burst forth, using “Tentacle Heterogenesis-Bloodhound” in combination with the Precious Treasure “Master of the Blood Oath, Rorg Horen’s Skull of Dark Blood (Broken),” along with the second-tier talent, “Tentacle Enthusiast.”

The Bloodhound formed by the overlap of these three nearly reached the strength of an “Ancestor Body,” capable of instantly restraining the opponent.

Such a performance also left Miss Maritzis exceedingly shocked.

Although Han Dong, as a Messenger, was connected with many ancient beings, his own level was not high.

Being able to display such intense Tentacle Ability at a low level was enough to deepen Miss Maritzis’ attention.

So, in her mate’s little notebook, she added another note—’Impressive Tentacles.’

…..

When this exchange ended, Han Dong immediately noticed his teammates’ problems.

Dumps and Abe were still fine.

The damage at the flesh level could recover over time given healing magic and their self-regenerative capabilities… Abe was the kind of person who grew stronger the more he fought, his physical body would become stronger than before once healed.

But Mia’s condition was not so good; besides the physical damage, her psyche had suffered serious trauma.

Even Han Dong himself had not expected that the “Particle Radiation” team would have a member whose “destructive power” surpassed even their leader Tesla… and Mia happened to encounter them.

To survive,

Mia had spent years practicing as an Insect Attach, using “Insect Essence” to develop eight spider legs, which were now completely destroyed…

If Han Dong had been even slightly later, Mia might indeed have died.

A “shadow of death” lingered in Mia’s heart… After drinking a crushed herbal mixture with pain-relieving effects, Mia leaned against the wall, closed her eyes, and rested for a while.

“Need it?”

A familiar voice made Mia open her eyes.

There sat Han Dong beside her, gesturing for her to rest her head on his shoulder.

… “I can manage on my own.”

When Mia spoke these words, Han Dong immediately realized the severity of the problem.

Once, just by leveraging their close relationship to coax Mia would immediately improve her mood, no matter how bad she felt…

Now, in Mia’s eyes, there was a subtle hint of fear and avoidance.

Just then,

A strong right arm wrapped around Mia’s shoulders and pulled her close, forcing her to use his shoulder as a pillow.

“Oh, it’s nothing! To be able to hold on, not dying is already quite good…”

In his lifetime, Han Dong was merely a scholar focused on research, his papers were indeed professional, but when it came to matters of men and women, he had no experience.

Now, he recalled some scenes from movies and tried to comfort Mia.

However, when these lines, completely void of emotional involvement and slightly stiff, were spoken aloud by Han Dong, they sounded quite discordant.

Pfft—Haha!… Mia couldn’t hold back and chuckled.

“Who comforts a girl like that… Besides, I really was just a bit away from dying.”

“The other one is a fourth-level engineer, and an elite among engineers at that… even specifically named by Lord Maritzis.

From my observations, that guy’s ‘Hands’ couldn’t even be fully controlled by himself, he was very cautious using them.

Those are hands that possess complete erasing ability, not just your witchcraft, I fear even my death spells and tentacle ability would be erased.”

Mia nodded, “Yeah… Just touching them, the ‘Spider Legs’ I spent years forming vanished.

Every touch made me feel like I was on the brink of death.”

“I promise you… next time we face any danger, I will protect you first.”

Being made to laugh, plus the solid assurance given by Han Dong.

Mia, with a smile on her face, was already fast asleep on my shoulder, even a strand of venom-laden drool lingering on the corner of her mouth, sleeping ever so sweetly.

Most of Death’s shadow had been erased.

The battle, with its nerves stretched to their limits, followed by several hours of journeying across the desert… By the time they found refuge in this abandoned structure, Mia was already utterly exhausted.

Just as Han Dong was about to take a short nap, he immediately felt a weird gaze.

Miss Maritzis, her lower body submerged in a pond, was looking over, clearly considering the possibility of mating between them two.

…

Only 36 hours were left before heading to the City of Gods.

After a brief rest, Han Dong and others continued their journey but found themselves in a state of perplexity.

The initial method to find the City of Gods was by following the directions of life-rich areas captured by the “Demon Eye” in the Grey Area desert.

At the moment,

Han Dong seemed to have arrived at close to the central part of the Grey Area desert.

Here, there were no “life gradients”, all sand grains contained the same amount of life, and they hadn’t seen any outline of the City of Gods at all.

After ten hours of aimless searching, they were completely clueless.

The “Water-avoiding bead” ran out of water much faster than expected and had already depleted its internal water supply.

Lord Maritzis was gradually showing signs of weakness due to the drought, and encountering another team now would be extremely severe.

Traveling for a long time in this reference-lacking grey desert had also completely solidified everyone’s thinking, making it difficult to come up with effective solutions.

“Dumps, come here!”

Continuing to walk down this path by luck, they fundamentally wouldn’t find the entrance to the City of Gods.

“Hmm? Do you have any ideas?”

“Being in the desert for a long time, our minds have stiffened… can you give me a brain massage package?”

“Do you need it extracranial or intracranial?”

“Oh? It can go inside… let’s give it a try!”

“Get ready, it might be a bit stimulating.”

When the skilled Finger Method was applied to the back of Han Dong’s head, a hidden Sixth Finger broke through the skull, penetrating deep into the cranium to massage the surface of the brain.

This sensation, akin to ascension, caused Han Dong’s body to convulse, and his thoughts were immediately freed from their confused state, breaking out of the fixed mindset of looking for the City of Gods, and finding the key point.

“Wait! Our direction of exploration isn’t wrong, or else we wouldn’t have encountered two other teams along the way… Since this area lacks a life gradient, could it be possible that we are currently within the range of the City of Gods?

The lowest altitude of the Grey Area desert,

massive amounts of architectural structures buried in the Grey Area desert,

Underground River, Black Water…

All important things on this planet are located at the “lower end”.

Could the City of Gods be right beneath our feet? Miss Mary, take out the ‘pass’ and give it a try.”

Following Han Dong’s call,

Miss Maritzis took out a “Black Water Embryo” stored inside her body and placed it on the surface of the sand.

Sssshhh…

Centered around the point where the embryo was placed, the surrounding sand began to rotate in a pattern and the sandy ground started to tremble slightly.

Slowly, the area of influence extended from the initial few seconds to hundreds of meters.

“Something big is coming from below… very big!!”

Suddenly…

A gigantic sandworm, whose body stretched to the sky, emerged from below, its single oral cavity reaching over a kilometer in width.

Without allowing Han Dong and others any chance to resist, they fell directly into the body of the sandworm.
