Chapter 791: The Tablet
“Fear, mortals, the flood in the abyss will drown you mercilessly!”
The ancient and evil atmosphere was spreading, and the whole space was shuddering.
With the magic of the Harbinger of Doom, the shadow of the monster emerging from the abyss was getting bigger and clearer.
Although it was still a long time before its real advent, its virtual shadow had been cast into this world, and fear followed.
The sea surged wildly, and the shadow was soon more than a hundred feet high, overlooking the whole undersea city from top to bottom.
The huge city was in its possession and everything was under its control.
Its body was humanoid, its outstretched arms were getting longer and longer, holding a disproportionately large sword, and its head extended to both sides, dividing into many heads, which looked a bit like dragons and pythons.
Evan was shocked, and now he only needed to raise his head slightly to see the whole picture of the monster.
He had thought that this guy would be an evil god, but now it seemed not, it was completely different not only in appearance.
After it appeared, there were no crazy echoes and unstoppable thoughts in Evan’s mind.
Being able to affect a person’s mind was a sign of an evil god, and this monster did not have this ability.
But this was rather not good news. The monster was not weaker than the evil god, and Evan had no experience in dealing with it.
If it was really summoned out, the world would usher in chaos.
This monster seemed to have the ability to control the sea water, which might trigger a tsunami and flood the entire Italian peninsula.
It was really scary. Ancient wizards had created miracles one after another with magic, but they had also attracted the attention of all kinds of powerful and pure Dark creatures. The last era of magic might have come to an end.
Evan was not sure why the intrepid ancient warlocks had disappeared, but the city in front of him had definitely sunk because of this monster in front of him.
Its coming was the root of the Big Bang, and only real lunatics would want to summon it.
The terrible monster in front of him reminded Evan of Typhon, the monster in mythology, son of Gaia, the Mother Earth goddess.
It was said that it had a hundred dragons’ heads, which were very scary, and even the gods did not dare to confront it.
Together with the mother of monsters, it gave birth to many children, including Cerberus, the three-headed dog, hydra, Ladon, dragons, the Caucasian eagle, the Chimera, the Manticore, the Sphinx, the Gorgons, Scylla and so on. There were dozens of Dark monsters.
Many of them still existed today and were the source of all evil.
At the end of the myth, it died in Sicily, and incarnated into a terrible volcano, expressing its anger to heaven.
Evan shook his head, focused his attention, accelerated his swimming speed, and came to the ruins where the blue light had flashed just now.
Since there was a flash of light just now, there must be some residual magic left by ancient wizards to restrain this monster.
Evan must understand the whole situation and then take action. If it didn’t work, he had to think of some way to get out of here.
Even if this monster did come out, that was a headache the Italian wizards needed to worry about.
Judging from the power of the white pillar of light over the Vatican, if an Italian wizard or other spellcaster really mastered that power, this upcoming monster might not be a rival…
A few minutes later, Evan stopped in front of a huge stone gate, a relatively intact architectural relic within the ruins.
The door was made of brown rock, with only the doorframe left, or it was like this when it was built, with two identical men carved on both sides. They were as tall as the Cyclops and held strange spheres.
Combined with the seal carving on the stone gate, Evan saw the sun, moon and stars, which seemed to indicate time…
Looking around at the collapsed stone pillars and relic wheels, it seemed to have been a huge circular building. Evan could imagine its grandeur.
This kind of architectural structure was generally used as a temple, dedicated to some kind of god.
Evan swam in through the gate, and the ground inside the ruins, which once seemed to be a hall, was carved with exquisite patterns.
At the end of the hall was a huge statue.
The statue was also damaged so badly that it wasn’t clear what it was, but a huge broken stone tablet in front of it was glowing blue.
Evan swam past, and the tablet was full of text. It was a kind of unpopular ancient rune, which was very popular in ancient Rome.
He looked at it word by word, and a lot of information had disappeared because of the damage.
From the rest of the text, it could be seen that the main content inscribed on this tablet seemed to be a passage taken by someone from what codebook about the description of the monster in front of them, and some personal emotions were also recorded:
After that devastating catastrophe, only the evil code was preserved.
It recorded the crimes committed by mortals and their stupidity in a vain attempt to control creatures with supreme power.
Thousands of years later, the wizards of Ionia got the code, and they tried to repeat the foolishness of their ancestors, summoning one of them to come again.
They intended to control it, absorb its evil power, and bring more brilliance to this city of eternal night.
That was ridiculous. Those who thought they were powerful were doing stupid things. In my opinion, destruction would be the only end of the city.
Nevertheless, I am not going to leave. I am loyal to this duty to record everything, and to copy from the code the method of summoning that terrible monster.
Would you do the same stupid thing later on after having seen this stone tablet?
Or would you be seduced by the conditions it promised?!!
Let’s wait and see. The words below will permeate horrors imperceptible to mortals.
If you arrive here by chance, I hope you can immediately turn away and leave, if you can still leave…
A long, long time ago, at the beginning of the mythical era, the monster with supreme power was born. I am not sure that this description is very accurate, if ‘supreme’ can describe its incredible power.
At the moment of birth, the power it unleashed shattered everything around it. It was…
Evan frowned. The tablet was missing a large piece here, missing important information. He couldn’t see the monster’s name.
His eyes continued downwards, and the words above seemed to quiver.
From the remaining information, it could be seen that after the newly born monster destroyed something, it was sealed in endless time by some more powerful existence. Without a wizard’s guidance and call, it could never come out and return to the real world.
