1345 Soul Altar

“Bang!”

The abyssal demon’s aura was forcefully poured into a gray jar with a radius of two meters!

“Chi chi chi…”

The abyssal demon looked like rotting flesh, but it was also extremely huge. However, under the effect of the gray smoke, it was slowly poured into the jar, making sizzling sounds.

The entire process lasted for a full two minutes until the abyssal demon’s entire body was forced into the jar.

Suddenly, the jar shook violently on the ground!

Wangnet raised his eyebrows and pressed his right hand down. He shouted, “Retract!!!”

“Hu! Huff huff!”

The blood priests raised the bone banners in their hands again!

At the same time, Wangnet quickly stepped forward and took out eight pieces of ancient rune paper with blood-red patterns. He quickly pressed them on eight spots on the jar and sealed the lid tightly!

Everyone around them looked nervous as they stared at the gray jar.

The blood-red runes on the jar flickered a few times before returning to their original state. The jar also stopped shaking.

Seeing that there was no movement from the jar, everyone looked at Wangnet again.

Wangnet reached out and caressed the altar. He closed his eyes and used perception for a moment. He looked at Fang Heng and nodded, “Sealing successful.”

Without waiting for the others to react, Qiu Yaokang immediately shouted, “Hurry up! Don’t just stand there, the effect of the special potion to continuously suppress the abyssal demon will gradually decrease over time. Once the weakening effect is removed, the soul altar’s power alone might not be able to keep it sealed. Quick, move it immediately!”

Fang Heng immediately turned to look at Wangnet and said, “Take the soul altar and leave first. We’ll catch up with you later.”

“Good!”

Wangnet didn’t hesitate. He immediately called a few elite barbarians to lift the altar and fly toward the exit of the abyss.

At this moment, many scholars from the Mage Association, experts who studied the plague aura, and onlookers who had heard the news had gathered at the entrance of the mine.

Seeing the people from the Mage Association going back and forth, and then seeing several barbarians working together to move a huge jar out of the mine, everyone became even more curious and began to discuss in low voices.

What were they doing?

As the game progressed, more and more people gathered in Lincoln City. Even the players in the game had gathered.

Most of the players came here to try their luck and see if they could receive a mission. There were also some who wanted to directly switch to necromancy.

After they entered the city, they mixed into the crowd of players and pointed at the barbarians curiously. They felt strange.

There were barbarians in Lincoln City?

What was even stranger was that the gray jar was heavily protected by the barbarians and it seemed to be very important.

What was inside?

High up in the sky, the giant falcon had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as Fang Heng and the others walked out of the mine, the falcon in the sky sensed their scent and swooped down.

“Let’s go first!”

Wangnet grabbed the soul altar with one hand and jumped onto the back of the giant falcon.

The giant falcon let out a cry and flew high into the sky, quickly disappearing from everyone’s sight.

The soul altar that sealed the abyssal demon could not be transported through the teleportation passage. Therefore, the fastest way to transport them was via the falcon.

Soon, Fang Heng led the group of people behind him out of the mine.

Fang Heng glanced at the remaining three giant falcons hovering in the sky and nodded, “Let’s go, we’ll catch up too.”

Stepping on the falcon’s back, the group quickly followed Wangnet and the others.

On the howling wind plains, Xiao Yun led the defeated soldiers who had escaped from the sacred tree forest and fled.

“Sir, the news has been sent back to the Empire’s royal family. The reinforcements sent by His Majesty Tang Wu are already on their way. Hold on for a while more…”

Xiao Yun listened to his subordinate’s report and gritted his teeth.

Every time the army was caught up by the pursuers, he had to make a difficult choice. He had to sacrifice a portion of the elites to stay behind and die to buy time for the entire army to escape.

Xiao Yun knew that he couldn’t stop now. Once he stopped, he would be crushed by the teams behind him.

Only by continuing to flee would he have a chance of survival.

“Report! Commander Xiao Yun!”

Seeing the cavalry guards from the Empire rushing over, Xiao Yun’s expression became a little excited as he replied loudly, “How long before the Empire’s reinforcements arrive?”

“Reporting to General Xiao Yun, His Majesty has ordered you to immediately head to Red Feather City. The teleportation passage in Red Feather City has been completed and is ready. Please return to the teleportation passage outside the capital, Atama, through the teleportation passage.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yun couldn’t help but be startled.

Reinforcements were not coming?

What kind of strange order did Tang Wu give?

Xiao Yun stared at the newcomer and frowned, “There are only a few hundred soldiers in Red Feather City’s garrison. They can’t stop Tang Mingyue’s team at all. The pursuers behind them will even continue to pursue the capital of the Empire, Atama…”

The two royal guards interrupted, “General, these are His Majesty’s words. Please accept the order and return back to Atama immediately! His Majesty has made his decision!”

Xiao Yun’s eyes narrowed as he waved his hand, “All troops, listen up! Change direction and head to Red Feather City!”

“Yes!”

The army immediately changed directions and retreated toward Red Feather City.

Not far behind them, Younica’s party of players who had been chasing after them also noticed the strange movements of the army ahead.

“Report, the remnants of the Empire’s army led by Xiao Yun are fleeing southwest. We’ve communicated with Li Xue’s team offline, and we’ve gathered information from all sides. We’ve determined that the enemy is most likely trying to enter Red Feather City and use the teleportation passage in the city to return to the mage tower outside the capital of the Empire, Atama.”

Atama?

They were going to the capital of the Empire?

Younica could not help but feel that this matter was a little strange.

Why were they escaping to the capital of the Empire?

Was Tang Wu not afraid of being implicated by bringing the battlefield to the main camp, or did he have another trump card in the Empire’s main city?

“Pursue! Don’t let them off!”

After this battle, the Empire’s elite army of more than 100,000 soldiers was reduced to less than 10,000 men!

The remaining members of the team were all elites among elites! Moreover, most of them were seriously injured. As a result, his strength dropped to the bottom.

The Empire had spent a lot of time and effort to nurture these elites. The death of each of these elites was a huge blow to the Empire!

Chase after them and completely crush them!

 

Younica would not waste this hard-won opportunity.

Trying to escape back to the capital, Atama?

Heh, then take down the capital of the Empire, Atama!

The morale of the entire team was high, and their spirits were even higher, including Ed.

He had already begun to fantasize about Tang Mingyue taking over the entire empire.
