Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 163 Myth Chain Lightning
"So, didn't you say you were going to scout the interior of the pyramid first? Why did you suddenly do it?"

Dironao curled his lips, looking speechless. He had clearly said at the beginning that they should just take action directly, but this scroll dragon insisted on conducting some reconnaissance operations. As a result, it inexplicably decided to take action after just using its peeping eyes to observe for a while.

Nemesis glanced at the red dragon without saying a word, his dark purple pupils looking at the earth with coldness.

"Niksarans," the long dragon roar spread throughout the city.

"Surrender your hands and surrender. I am Amaia, the destined savior. Welcome my coming and I will forgive all of your sins."

The huge body of the monster glows brilliantly in the sun, and its silver scales refract the sunlight, revealing its god-like majesty.

Nemesis did not want to start a massacre in the city unless it was absolutely necessary, so he chose to impersonate the prophesied Amaia, hoping to make these fools who were brainwashed by faith surrender.

The dying mother lying beside her baby opened her eyes wide and shed tears of joy when she heard the dragon's words.

"It's Amaiya. It's really Amaiya."

Such scenes are not uncommon throughout the city.

As prophesied in the Old Testament, the one supreme God will one day destroy all mankind on the day of Revelation, and He has indeed brought disaster upon Himself.

But people still believe in the omniscient and omnipotent one, just as these Niksalans believe in the gods who eat their flesh and blood, and believe in Zaltec who is destined to destroy the Maztecs in the prophecy.

Because prophecy has two sides.

Just as Jesus saved mankind from suffering, Amaia, a man of infinite power and noble birth, would also save the Maztecs.

These Niksalans have suffered blood sacrifices for a long time, so how could they not have complaints? It's just that the oppression brought by their religious society has made them regard those complaints as taboos that cannot be mentioned, and they suppress them deep in their hearts.

When the unknown entity appeared and claimed to be Amaia, it gave them an excuse, an excuse to escape from the gods.

It was not that they were impious, but rather that they were following the instructions of an ancient prophecy, after all, the prophecy of Amaia was something that all Maztec churches openly agreed on.

Many Niksalans knelt down. Of course, their number was not too large, only about one third.

Most of them are parents who have personally experienced their children being sacrificed in blood.

Most of the rest of the Niksalan people are people with strong faith, and they are often the most excited people when watching the blood sacrifice.

As for children? The vast majority of them don't have children, and a few are true sociopaths who think children are nothing more than tools for sacrifice.

They looked at the kneeling Niksarans and scolded them loudly, and some extremists even picked up weapons and wanted to kill them.

The giant dragon in the sky had a panoramic view of everything. He just gently raised his dragon claws and chanted a spell softly.

Strands of red electric light gathered at the fingertips, and then in an instant, wildly dancing electric snakes surged out like a dragon emerging from the sea.

Six-ring Shaping Mythic Spell——[Chain Lightning]!
Wailing sounded in the wind, and the gloomy wronged souls entangled in the lightning, shooting at a Niksalan who raised a spear. The huge electric current instantly burned him into charcoal. The next moment, the lightning split into two across a distance of hundreds of meters and hit two Niksalan who were firm in their faith.

Under Nemesis' will, the lightning was divided from two to four, and from four to eight. Soon, thousands of lightning bolts raged in the city, instantly killing countless stubborn Niksalans.

The Niksalans who had already knelt down lowered their heads in horror when they saw this scene. "If I am not mistaken, this is chain lightning?"

Dironao looked at Nemesis with an expression as if he had seen a ghost. As a red dragon who was a level 11 warlock, he was very familiar with the spells of evocation and easily recognized the spell Nemesis recited. However, the horrifying magic that killed thousands of people in an instant was definitely not the [Chain Lightning] he knew!

Nemesis curled his lips. This is not over yet. How could the power contaminated by Zartek be so simple?

Soon, the Niksalan people discovered something even more horrifying. The charred corpses struck by lightning staggered to their feet from the ground, with red electric currents splashing on their bodies from time to time. They looked greedily at the living people around them.

Nemesis waved its dragon claws gently, and the charred corpses immediately turned their targets to the surviving Niksaran people who did not surrender. They opened their mouths like black holes, spewing scarlet lightning from them. After electrocuting the living people into charcoal, they rushed up impatiently to enjoy the food.

"Tsk tsk, well, it seems that I am not good enough in my skills. This is definitely not chain lightning, necromancy? Doesn't it look like a combination of evocation and necromancy?"

Dironao shook his head, feeling amused at his outrageous guess. How could such a terrifying magic be chain lightning? It would have to be at least a nine-ring spell.

Nemesis' pupils suddenly shrank, and he said quickly, "Don't move, that big guy should attack."

The pyramid in the distance has been condensing layer upon layer of halo from bottom to top since a while ago. Layer upon layer of golden halo surrounds the pyramid until it reaches the top of the spire, and the entire pyramid radiates dazzling light.

"Buzz!"

The strange buzzing sound rang out again, and two thick golden beams shot out from the top of the pyramid, shooting towards the two dragons at lightning speed.

"Damn it!"

Dironao's expression changed drastically, and he flapped his wings to escape, but it was too late.

The beam of light was so close in front of him that he couldn't help but close his eyes, but the next moment, the familiar pain did not come.

"I told you, don't move."

Hearing the nonchalant teasing of the scroll dragon at the side, Dironao opened his eyes and saw that the beam of light shooting at him was actually blocked by a layer of white shield, which continued to ripple.

"Is this your magic? It can even block the attack from the pyramid?" said the red dragon in disbelief.

Nemesis chuckled. He had just released a fifth-ring protective spell, [Anti-Curse Field]. This spell could greatly increase the magic resistance of creatures in the field. With a twenty-fold increase, the magic resistance of the two dragons could be said to have reached an extremely exaggerated level. Except for some special spells that ignored magic resistance, even the ninth-ring spells could not harm them.

The attacks fired by the pyramid are powerful, but they have not yet exceeded the scope of the nine-ring spell.

Seeing that the first attack didn't work, the golden halo began to gather again, and this time, the range of the halo was larger.

Nemesis's eyes became fierce, and he immediately shouted loudly: "All the Niksalans who don't want to die, quickly evacuate the city!"

The people of Nikesalan obviously understood the power of the pyramid and had already started running away. Only the mother in front of the altar was trying weakly to stand up and take her child away.

But her broken hands had lost the ability to hold the child.
