Chapter 3215: Another ExplosionEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

He wasn’t dead yet?

Again!

The bronze sacrifice platform trembled faintly once more, and then the remains placed on top to suppress it released ripples of holy power, firmly holding the bronze platform down.

With each tremor, it was obvious that the strength erupting from the remains had gradually weakened.

They had been guarding the remains for more than ten years.

During these ten years, the strength of the remains had always been relatively stable.

Was it because of this continuous release of energy that the main body of the remains could no longer keep up?

The martial artists all turned their eyes toward Miguel, their gazes carrying a hint of inquiry.

Miguel signaled for them to remain calm.

He himself did not quite know what to do.

From his perspective, at the start, the remains could steadily suppress the altar, but as time passed, the aura released from the stone tablet gradually eroded away the energy of the remains.

If it continued like this...

An accident might occur.

Soon, two high-tier martial artists who had gone to report to the research institute returned, saying, ”Captain, we have already reported the changes of the sacrifice platform to the spawns. The spawns ordered us to continue observing.”

”Understood.” Miguel swept his gaze over everyone and said, ”You all heard it. Do not act rashly. The spawns understand the remains far better than we do. There will be no problem. Maintain vigilance as usual.”

”Understood.”

Although the martial artists felt uneasy, they had no other choice.

What else could they do?

Move the remains away? Wouldn’t that make it easier for the Evil God and that invader to break free?

But if things continued like this...

A shadow of unease loomed in their hearts.

Just as their nerves were tightening, the entire bronze sacrifice platform suddenly shook violently again!

Miguel frowned, then simply reached out and lifted the brocade cloth on the bronze platform, revealing the remains placed underneath.

The situation was not good!

Looking closely, one could see golden flowing light leaking from the remains, as if drawn to the bronze sacrifice platform, slowly streaming into the altar.

Could it be...

The group looked at each other, their eyes filled with astonishment.

They felt a strange sensation.

It seemed the bronze stone tablet was absorbing the strength of the remains.

How could that be possible?

”Go inform the spawns.”

”But... just now we already—”

Miguel cut him off in a deep voice, ”Then go again!”

”Yes!”

The high-tier martial artist hurried back to the spawns’ research institute hall to report to the commander.

...

More than ten minutes later, the consul of the spawns arrived, escorted by guards.

What lay on the bronze sacrifice platform was half a set of remains.

The remains had suffered heavy damage, cleaved in half, leaving only about one-third of the body, including the head.

The consul observed the remains, which continuously released dark golden flowing light into the sacrifice platform, and for a moment could not figure it out.

Several research personnel stepped forward to examine the situation closely.

It was the first time they had seen such a phenomenon, and they could not help but marvel.

As time passed, the strength released from the remains grew weaker and weaker.

This was not a good sign.

From the bottom of his heart, Miguel thought this group of research personnel, who only knew how to record data, were utter fools. He could not help but say again, ”Consul, the condition of the remains is not good. We need to prepare in advance.”

The consul naturally realized the abnormality of the situation as well. He shifted his gaze to Miguel and asked, ”What do you propose?”

”The anomaly in the remains is very likely related to the invader that was just sealed. The Evil God may have absorbed the invader, gaining a huge increase in strength in a short time, and then released a terrifying ripple in that instant, preventing the energy of the remains from completing the suppression.”

”If this continues, it could cause permanent damage to the remains.”

Miguel narrowed his eyes and said outright, ”I suggest we directly open the bronze sacrifice platform and release the Evil God.”

The cavern fell silent.

The consul of the spawns turned to a researcher, signaling with his eyes to ask whether such a proposal was feasible.

A few researchers murmured among themselves before the supervisor stepped forward and said, ”The data of the remains shows that they are currently in a stable state, but as Mr. Miguel said, the energy points being released are indeed rapidly decreasing.”

Miguel sneered inwardly.

A bunch of idiot researchers—what they said was no better than nothing.

He looked again at the consul and asked, ”Consul, shall we act?”

The consul hesitated for a moment and pressed further, ”If the energy points continue to decrease, will it affect the remains?”

The research supervisor shook his head and said, ”Uncertain.”

The consul of the spawns pondered for a few seconds, then raised his head and said, ”The remains are the key to ’Helium,’ they must not be lost. First, move the remains away, then think of a way to stabilize the bronze sacrifice platform.”

”Gather more manpower. We must ensure nothing goes wrong.”

”Understood!”

Miguel immediately waved his hand, signaling several martial artists to move the remains off the bronze sacrifice platform.

”Chi, chi, chi...”

As the remains were removed, the holy aura that lingered on the bronze platform gave off a sizzling sound, as if it were rapidly dissolving.

Seeing this, everyone grew even more cautious.

In just a few minutes, more than twenty additional high-tier martial artists rushed in for reinforcement, while the holy aura lingering on the altar completely dissolved.

Everyone stared intently at the stone tablet.

At this moment, the bronze stone tablet instead gradually quieted down.

...

Inside the Evil God’s space.

Zane watched with his own eyes as the holy attribute strength attached to the outer space barrier was absorbed again and again by Fang Heng.

So much so that when he tried attacking the outer barrier with the dark fog beast this time, the holy attribute strength no longer regenerated.

The ripple of holy power had disappeared?

What was going on?

Zane cautiously turned his head toward Fang Heng, his throat moving as he asked, ”Drained dry?”

Fang Heng sensed the gradual exhaustion of holy energy as well. He opened his eyes, meeting Zane’s gaze.

”No. Something’s off. The holy power disappeared suddenly, not like being slowly drained away. It was more like the source of strength was transferred.”

Fang Heng spoke calmly, raising his head to look toward the edge of the Evil God’s space, then nodded, ”If I had to guess, those outside discovered that we were trying to absorb the holy power of the sealed object. They feared that too much of its strength would be lost and the seal destroyed.”

Zane could not sense the subtle changes in the holy power, but after everything that had happened since meeting Fang Heng, he did not doubt him. He nodded repeatedly and asked, ”What should we do?”

”Of course, we’ll do it again, and try breaking through the Evil God’s space from the inside.”

Zane frowned. ”But if we do that, the people outside should already be prepared, right?”

”You’re not wrong. So, Zane, get ready for battle. And remember our agreement—after you leave here, don’t run off too quickly. I still need you to help me with something.”
