The previous second was clear skies.
The next second.
Darkness, like a tide, surged from the distant horizon, suddenly engulfing the entire sky, turning the surroundings pitch-black.
"Do not panic, chanical Church mbers, turn on the lighting equipnt!"
Baiyu frowned.
In an instant.
One beam after another of intense light shone out.
The team finally escaped the darkness.
The world at this mont seed to truly fall into a black night, where one couldn’t see their fingers in front of them, eerily silent.
At this mont.
The sound of wings flapping against the wind returned once more.
Baiyu’s face changed, looking toward the distant dark sky, those strange birds were back!
Moreover.
This ti, the numbers were greater, and their size was larger.
"Prepare for battle."
The Black Moon Blade appeared in Baiyu’s hand.
mbers of the chanical God Church also set up defensive equipnt, clearly in this darkness, launching an attack recklessly was not as safe as holding their ground.
The strange birds did not attack imdiately.
They circled in the sky, gathering more and more, quickly forming a dense mass, charging downward like a tidal wave.
"Fire the cannons!"
The leader of the chanical God Church squad shouted angrily.
Bang!
More than a dozen magic crystal cannons roared swiftly, beams of light reaping lives among the bird flock.
Birds fell continuously from the sky.
Blood poured down, forming a bloody rain.
The power of the magic crystal cannon was indisputable.
Yet everyone could clearly feel that those strange birds had beco stronger; compared to the first attack, they were nearly twice as powerful!
After persisting for half an hour.
This vast flock of strange birds finally dispersed due to heavy casualties.
However, there was no joy of victory on the faces of the crowd, only heaviness.
"The darkness granted them power."
At this mont.
A mber of the Scarred Church said, "They are likely the clan of the Dark War God, the darkness can enhance them.
In this situation.
If we cannot quickly find a way out, there is only one outco: being exhausted to death here."
Worry appeared on everyone’s faces.
What he said was true; no one knew how many strange birds there were, but their stamina and energy were limited.
Furthermore.
The darkness didn’t make them stronger, instead, it weakened them.
At this ti, the darkness in the sky gradually retreated.
The bright clouds revealed themselves once more.
But.
When everyone could see around them again, they couldn’t help but furrow their brows.
Soone was missing!
The three people who were injured in the battle with the strange birds earlier had disappeared, leaving no trace behind.
Baiyu furrowed his brows.
"Do you have a way to contact them?"
Baiyu looked towards the Scarred Church mbers’ squad.
mbers of the sa church should have a specific ans of communication.
"We’ve tried, no response, they... they really seem to have disappeared." A mber of the Scarred God Church pointed at his arm.
There was a fresh cut that had already healed.
Baiyu furrowed his brows tightly and said solemnly, "Next ti darkness cos, everyone must pay attention to those around you. If you see anyone disappear, report imdiately."
Clearly.
Disappearing in such circumstances was basically equivalent to death.
The group nodded heavily, after so reorganization, they continued forward.
This ti.
After walking a similar distance as before, darkness returned, its timing was regular.
Almost every twenty minutes!
Once darkness enveloped the land, many monsters would attack, and in the darkness, these monsters were even more formidable, seemingly gaining strength with each darkness!
Very soon, the team had more casualties.
And.
Even though everyone watched their surroundings, people still mysteriously disappeared, leaving no trace.
This was undeniably a heavy stone on everyone’s heart.
After a few hours of progress.
Finally, soone couldn’t take it anymore.
"Just kill , kill . This is Hell, a place without any hope, not the abode of gods!"
A mber of the Scarred Church shouted angrily.
Black feather-like hairs grew from his left arm, and the arm was swelling rapidly.
This was a sign of loss of control.
Once loss of control began, it was irreversible.
The mbers chosen to act with Alfred were clearly veterans with strong psychological resilience.
But now.
Under such terrifying pressure, they began to show signs of ntal collapse.
After all.
No matter how strong their will, they were human!
They had limits and thresholds.
Once those limits were exceeded, the end result would be like this.
The mber beside him, with a face full of sorrow, stabbed a sharp blade into his heart, ending his life, and preventing further loss of control.
Baiyu felt a heaviness seeing this scene.
So.
Even in the Galaxy Empire, loss of control still existed, and it often happened even to these seasoned church mbers!
Extraordinary Power was a curse.
Baiyu took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Keep moving forward, I don’t know if the road ahead is the right one, but to get out now, we can only proceed.
Because elsewhere in the Dream Realm.
It will only be more terrifying."
Baiyu recalled his experience in the forest, speaking heavily.
The group revived their spirits.
The team proceeded silently, but soon enough, darkness ca again.
At this ti, however.
Baiyu noticed that the monsters’ strength was much weaker than before!
Even weaker than during the first darkness invasion!
Darkness every twenty minutes, ever-strengthening monsters... Baiyu recalled these key points in his mind, soon squinting his eyes and saying solemnly, "These monsters cannot be indefinitely enhanced!
We seem trapped in so cycle.
In this cycle, these monsters grow stronger, and after reaching a certain critical point, they start a new cycle.
From now until now.
This cycle has repeated six tis.
Which ans, after six darkness invasions, the monsters return to their previous strength."
Baiyu looked at the group.
Listening to him, the mbers of both churches had a glint in their eyes.
"Now is the chance to see where these monsters co from!"
Baiyu leaped into the air, stepping onto the back of a strange bird.
Because the bird’s strength had weakened significantly, Baiyu quickly controlled it.
Other mbers followed suit, jumping onto the bird backs.
After the darkness invasion ended.
The strange birds, as before, flew toward a certain area of the flower sea. Soon, a magnificent palace appeared before Baiyu’s eyes, standing in a massive gorge.
