Capítulo 990: Chapter 988: Finally, Rebellion!
At the sa ti, in Pompeii located in the northwest of Jialan City.
Many core mbers of the Truth Society, including Long i’er and Canon, appeared at the edge of an active volcano’s crater.
The crater was spewing out high-temperature black smoke, and the air was filled with a pungent sulfur sll. The ground was incredibly hot, and if it weren’t for the extraordinary power protecting everyone, they would surely be burned.
At this mont, the group had serious expressions, as if waiting for sothing.
After a few seconds, Long i’er looked at Canon and said, “It should be about ti, let’s start.”
“Yes, Supervisor.” Canon nodded and turned to the others, issuing the command, “Begin.”
There was a brief commotion in the crowd, then they parted to the sides, and from the back, several people carrying large tal boxes approached the crater.
The tal boxes were about a ter square, and once brought to the crater, they were opened, revealing the contents inside. It could be seen that there was black sand with faintly mixed blue pebbles.
“Pour!”
Canon ordered.
Those holding the boxes imdiately poured the black sand into the crater.
Once emptied, they retreated to replace them with new boxes, and the next person stepped up to continue pouring the black sand into the crater.
This continued for over ten minutes, with hundreds of boxes of black sand being poured into the crater.
Inside the volcano, dramatic changes began, as if provoked, with more high-temperature black smoke gushing out and a beast-like roaring coming from its depths.
The ground around trembled slightly, and the volcano seed about to erupt.
At this mont, Long i’er stepped forward, turning over his hand to reveal a red gemstone the size of a fist. This Ruby was carved into the shape of a human head, with dense magic runes engraved on the surface.
Long i’er infused mana into the Ruby head, which suddenly lit up, then Long i’er threw the Ruby head into the crater.
“Boom!”
The Ruby fell, erupting with imnse power, crashing into the volcano’s interior like a teor, astonishingly stopping the volcano’s impending eruption.
No, it didn’t just stop it; it seed more like a seal.
A few seconds later, all sounds disappeared, and even the black smoke ceased to eject from the crater, as if it had fallen asleep, with silence all around.
“It seems, we succeeded.” Long i’er turned to the group and said, “Finally, it’s done, and maybe we can relax a bit for now.”
Everyone listened and showed a relaxed expression.
However, Canon still furrowed his brow, looking as if sothing was on his mind.
Long i’er observed, raised an eyebrow, and approached to ask softly, “What’s the matter? Wasn’t your pet returned to you already?”
“It’s not that.” Canon replied slightly embarrassed, then adjusted his expression and said, “Supervisor, I’m a bit concerned about Wizard Richard.”
“Wizard Richard? What’s wrong with him, hasn’t he been well-behaved recently?” Long i’er inquired.
“Well, early yesterday, he had Wizard Joseph, a core mber of a division, return the ‘Void Book’ he borrowed, probably after studying and transcribing it, but I don’t know the outco of his research. I am pondering, what if he successfully researches sothing again and continues to make illegal requests?”
“No need to worry.” Long i’er replied, “I’ve already had a serious talk with him about illegal matters before; it won’t happen again. Also, his research won’t succeed.”
“Hmm? Why?” Canon asked, puzzled.
“Because he’s really on the wrong path.” Long i’er said with absolute confidence on his face, “Even if he achieves so results in the short term, as soon as ti stretches a little longer, he’ll realize it’s all fake — a complete failure from start to finish.”
“But…” Canon was still sowhat confused.
Long i’er, however, didn’t explain further, gestured for Canon to stop talking, unwilling to discuss this matter more, and walked toward the group, who all looked over expectantly.
Long i’er clearly took out a Crystal Ball from his chest and said, “Although I’ve ntioned before that sealing the volcano should be successful, we still need to see evidence to be sure. So let’s take a look.”
Saying this, Long i’er infused mana to activate it, revealing densely packed green light spots inside the Crystal Ball, all glowing green at a glance.
The only exception was a red dot in the center, attracting everyone’s attention.
But after flashing stubbornly a few tis, the red dot eventually turned green, and the Crystal Ball shone with green light both inside and out.
Long i’er smiled and announced to the crowd, “This ti, it’s truly successful.”
“Success.” The crowd nodded in agreent.
“This success marks the completion of the most crucial task in Pompeii’s developnt.” Long i’er spoke, gazing into the distance, “So, my friends, let’s witness the beginning of a new era. Although there are still many impurities and obstacles, I believe it will keep getting better.”
The group responded, following Long i’er to gaze into the distance, their eyes gradually revealing vibrant colors.
The place they were looking at was Pompeii, an unprecedented Pompeii!
…
Two days later.
Eden.
It was a peaceful day.
Pandora continued her mathematical studies in her room, while her Golden Yellow Dog rare opportunity to sneak out, was now running around the open space in front of the main lab, amusing itself.
The Golden Yellow Dog bit its tail while madly running, occasionally barking a few tis, but it always tried to keep its volu low to avoid disturbing Pandora and being called back.
Over fifty tall transford skeletons stood like statues in the open space, serving as the backdrop, while the Witch Demon Elder lay in a recliner, continuing to enjoy leisure ti — ever since Richard returned from Delan last ti, without the threat of survival, his enthusiasm for transford skeletons waned sharply, from being diligent to slacking off most of the ti.
By contrast, the Eight-Ard Skeleton showed more enthusiasm than the Witch Demon Elder, consistently modifying other skeletons, either replacing an arm or swapping a leg.
Initially, the Witch Demon Elder found it curious, but over ti, he got used to it, allowing the Eight-Ard Skeleton to tinker as he pleased, as long as nothing broke — in fact, he was quite willing to subcontract this project to the Eight-Ard Skeleton, just unsure of how well the Eight-Ard Skeleton could perform.
“The better you do, the more relaxed I am,” thought the Witch Demon Elder, squirming in the recliner to adjust to a more comfortable position, preparing to take a nap.
Previously, he dreamt about many glorious monts from his youth, and he hoped to pick up where he left off in his dreams this ti… The Witch Demon Elder mused, as his consciousness slowly drifted, sinking deeper into the dreamland.
But just as he was about to enter the dream, a sharp alarm suddenly rang out unannounced, cutting through the air like a sharp knife and painfully piercing the ears.
“Squeal! Woo! Squeal! Woo!”
The Witch Demon Elder jerked awake instantly, “shua,” sitting up in the recliner, dazed for about half a second before realizing what happened.
The alarm sounded!
Yes, the alarm sounded, and it was in Research Room No.3, where the Eternal Ancient Tree Species Ximu was located!
The tree finally couldn’t resist and rebelled!
It rebelled!
