Chapter 128: Destroying the Altar! Facing the G.o.d!
At the top of the altar stood a statue with a shape similar to a spider.
Distorted runes, drawn using fresh blood, were in front of the statue, and it seemed to be this heretic G.o.d’s name.
This statue was as tall as a person, and a G.o.d of Evil’s aura came from it.
This statue’s true form could not be described; it was very abstract and distorted. After all, the so-called G.o.ds were something humankind could not understand or touch.
Everything about the G.o.ds’ appearances were merely the visions of humankind. Even their names were humankind’s transliteration; no one knew the G.o.ds’ real names.
Yuna, who possessed holy attributes, had a strong aversion toward this statue in her heart. “Master, this statue is probably the medium the Black Dragon Gang uses to communicate with the G.o.d of Evil. If we destroy it immediately, this area should no longer be affected by the G.o.d of Evil’s aura.”
Link nodded lightly, and the [King’s Sword] in his hand and the cirrus limbs harshly slashed at the statue!
The air was instantly ripped apart, and a boom sounded!
Yuna also wielded her staff. A ball of brilliant holy light went smashing toward the statue!
The two people’s attributes and combat ability far exceeded peers of the same level. Presently, acting without reservations, the might that burst out had reached the magnitude of a Stage Six!
Boom!
Amidst the roar, the statue—made of an unknown material—cracked at every inch!
But even after the statue exploded, the six gems on the statue—which acted as the spider’s eyes—did not break. Instead, they gathered together and released a misty radiance!
A strange and frightening aura instantly spread through the air!
Cracks actually surfaced in the world before Link and Yuna’s eyes. They swiftly extended like a spiderweb and then broke like a mirror!
The two of them seemed to have fallen into an endless illusion; the scene in front of their eyes changed speedily!
Dense, interlaced spider silk appeared before Link.
These spiderwebs were extraordinarily huge. Like pillars that connected to heaven, they hung in the world. The scene was appalling!
It was as if Link and Yuna had fallen into the nest of a certain giant spider.
But deep inside those spiderwebs seemed to be a peerlessly great, vast, and indescribable figure present!
A mere pa.s.sing glance, and Link and Yuna had lowered their heads instinctively, shifting their gazes away.
They only saw a shadow that was jet black like the abyss.
When they wanted to take another look, they instinctively sensed extreme danger!
One mustn’t look directly at a G.o.d! Just looking would bring about infinite disaster and destruction! Even if that G.o.d of Evil had not noticed them at this time!
The world before their eyes was filled with the G.o.d of Evil’s aura; it was no longer part of the physical world already!
This was the Spider G.o.d, Atlas Nakya!
He existed in the depths of dreamlands! He was always constantly weaving a ma.s.sive net, setting up a bridge between the sober world and dreams.
Many people believed that the bridge would be completed once he finished weaving the net and that the apocalyptic world would arrive following that!
This was an indescribable G.o.d of Evil. He was currently sleeping soundly in the depths of the dreamlike spiderwebs.
His broad physique could not be described; the air currents that he breathed out were like a gentle breeze but also the abyss’s miasma. It made one fearful!
Facing the G.o.d, fear and madness constantly hit Link and Yuna!
Even with [Fearless]’s protection, the two people still felt immense uneasiness and crisis in their hearts!
How did we get here? Link wondered inwardly, but he was still calm. He activated [Ring of Teleportation]’s active skill—[So Close, Yet So Far]—at the first moment.
This skill could mark a total of five nodes in s.p.a.ce, and it could allow the user to return to the marked s.p.a.ce nodes.
Following his thoughts, the [Ring of Teleportation] in Link’s hand lit up with a silver glow.
But it did not bring the duo out of this dreadful, nightmare-like place immediately.
A notification entered Link’s mind.
[Ding! Detected that you are in a special s.p.a.ce—Dreamlands. Due to the influence of the G.o.d of Evil’s aura, s.p.a.ce teleportation cannot be accomplished immediately.]
[Teleportation countdown; 10... 9... 8...]
Even the [Ring of Teleportation]’s teleportation ability was restricted here! Fortunately, the restriction had merely delayed the teleportation time. If it were to restrict teleportation directly, Link and Yuna would probably have to remain here forever, becoming the Spider G.o.d’s food!
Every second spent waiting seemed like an eternity. The uneasiness and sense of crisis that filled Link and Yuna’s heart became even stronger!
The Spider G.o.d resting in the spiderwebs’ depths seemed like He was just about to leave the state that was between dream and reality. Once He awoke, it would be equivalent to death arriving!
Finally, the countdown was about to end!
Link’s eyes narrowed slightly. The cirrus limbs reached out and cut off a portion of the spider silk from the ma.s.sive spiderwebs.
Coming to the G.o.d of Evil’s abode meant bearing extreme danger, so Link wasn’t willing to make a trip here in vain.
One must know that everything which existed here had to do with the G.o.d of Evil. Stained with the G.o.d of Evil’s aura, they would certainly be materials of extremely high quality.
Together with [Supreme Blessing]—which was Link’s talent ability—Link could further increase the items’ quality!
The gains this time would certainly be beyond imagination!
Of course, if Link’s act of pulling out the heretic G.o.d’s hair was learned by the Spider G.o.d, it would certainly incur his terrifying fury.
In reality, as a piece of spider silk was cut off, the sense of crisis in Link and Yuna’s heart also soared to the peak.
It seemed like the frightening G.o.d of Evil was about to wake up!
Fortunately, the countdown had completely ended!
Link and Yuna’s figures instantly vanished from the area.
Not long after, that ma.s.sive, indescribable spider slowly lifted His eyelids. Of the six spider eyes, four were shut. Only two were open, and it seemed as if worlds were being annihilated in those deep eyes!
The Spider G.o.d sensed that someone had left and had taken part of His spider silk. He conveyed an emotion of rage!
A frightening aura instantly shook in the spiderwebs’ depths; the darkness boiled at once like a tide!
A magnificent voice—which humankind could not comprehend—sounded; it sounded like a soft ‘eh.’
“Hmm? Who stole my spider silk? This aura is a little familiar.” The Spider G.o.d, Atlas Nakya, began to deduce, intending to lock onto the visitor that came uninvited. How dare they steal my spider silk and disrespect me? They naturally have to bear boundless fury and destruction!
But a hint of surprise soon flashed across Atlas Nakya’s heart. He actually could not get any information about that thief.
Atlas Nakya was rather surprised. Those ma.s.sive spider eyes on His body opened successively, and the aura He emitted also became even scarier!
Even when all six of His spider eyes were open, He was still unable to learn the thief’s information. The only thing He got was chaos!
“Chaos?!” The frightening aura shook for a long time before the Spider G.o.d recovered His calm. The six spider eyes then closed in succession once more.
...
Presently, Link and Yuna had already returned from the Dreamlands and were back in the bas.e.m.e.nt’s second level.
The coordinates that Link had marked for teleportation was outside the building. It was probably due to the influence of the G.o.d of Evil’s aura that a certain extent of deviation happened to the teleporation position.
Link and Yuna—who had just returned from the dreadful place—had yet to get over their fear.
Moments later, Link stretched his hands out and brought out a piece of spider silk. This was his gain from this trip!
