Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 180: Throne Movement
At this moment, Nemesis, who was studying spells in the Mage Tower, suddenly froze.

"How can this feeling come about? Throne?"

A half-red, half-silver gem suddenly appeared in Nemesis' palm. It was the artifact that had been very mysterious until now - the [Throne].

At this moment, the red half of the throne emitted a dazzling light, and twisted psychic energy was boiling in it. Nemesis could feel that the throne was being called by some existence, and it wanted to go to that place.

As the host of the throne, Nemesis also sensed this desire and craved for that power.

He immediately teleported to the [Detection Room] on the first floor. He wanted to use prophecy magic to detect where the force that attracted the throne came from.

Nemesis sat in front of the astrology table, with pale and strong arms extending from under his wide black robe. His slender and powerful fingers covered the prophecy crystal ball, and blue arcane magic was continuously invested into it. All the runes around the room lit up, and the mana pool continuously transmitted mana to the astrology table through the mana ditches on the walls of the room.

In this case, Nemesis's prophecy spell was greatly enhanced.

Soon, a city scene vaguely appeared in the crystal ball.

The city's streets are arranged in a grid pattern, and the cobblestones are paved with smooth tracks by pedestrians. The towering pyramids stand in the city center, and the golden light of the sun refracts on the steps, symbolizing the supremacy of theocracy.

This is a Maztec city that looks much more developed than Tikal.

"Nazca City?" The crystal ball revealed the name and location of the city to the tower master in the exploration room.

"Huakli Alliance? How are they related to the throne?" Nemesis was a little surprised by the answer.

"etc."

Nemesis suddenly remembered that before the throne awakened, it absorbed a large amount of twisted spiritual energy from the evil god, and it is possible that this would have an impact.

"Could it be that the one who attracted the throne is also a being with twisted psychic energy?" Nemesis frowned.

He knew very well how terrifying the existence behind those twisted psychics was, a creature that even the magic network had to be careful of. How were these Maztecs related to them?

Regardless, Nemesis decided to go and see what was going on.

[Throne] is a divine weapon that he still hasn't figured out. He must figure out the reason before he can use it with peace of mind.

"Nazca City? Then let's go and have a look."

On the other side, the three people who had just walked out of the cave found that the rainforest had fallen into chaos.

There was overturned soil and dead bodies everywhere. The three people who were originally confused understood what was going on after they saw another piece of soil turned over and a bulbous monster crawling out of it.

"These...are those monsters? How many monsters are there under this rainforest?!" Shana exclaimed.

Dironao felt a little scalp tingling, so his territory was full of these disgusting brain-eating monsters?
"How disgusting!" The red dragon spat, changed back to its original form, and stomped to death the bulbous monster that crawled out.

Sefar looked into the distance and said in amazement: "Look, those monsters seem to be heading in the same direction."

"Let's go and take a look. It seems that the culprits who destroyed the advance army are not simple." Sefar sighed.

The two of them immediately rode on the red dragon. The huge red dragon flew into the sky and overlooked the forest from high in the air.

In the dark and humid jungle, countless strange-looking monsters emerged like a tide. These monsters walked heavily, and with every step they took, the wet ground stirred up muddy splashes. Their shells were extremely hard, reflecting a dull luster. As they continued to move forward, low roars echoed in the rainforest, scaring away birds and beasts and shaking the trees.

The city was vaguely visible in the distance, and the brick and stone walls looked particularly peaceful and solid in the afterglow of the setting sun. The residents of the city might not have realized that a disaster was quietly approaching. The monsters' steps became more and more hurried, as if they could sense the upcoming feast.

They knew that their gods were calling them, and that the flesh and blood would be the reward given to them.

In the city, children are still chasing and playing in the streets, lovers are walking hand in hand on the cobblestone roads, vendors are shouting one after another, and the whole city is harmonious and peaceful. However, the approaching shadow on the cloudy skyline indicates that all this is about to be broken.

"Then what is that?!"

The guards on the Nazca walls, holding spears and ignoring the quiet morning scene, were awakened by the sudden movement.

They stared with wide eyes as they witnessed this scene: countless monsters rushed out of the city like a tide, with such momentum that it was terrifying.

The guards responded quickly and sounded the alarm bell. The sharp sound of the bell cut through the tranquility of the early morning, conveying ominous news.

The bulbous monster tide was moving at an extremely fast speed, approaching the city wall like a yellow wave, but the strange thing was that the pyramid, which usually firmly protected the citizens, did not react at this time.

“Quick!! Quick!! Notify the Great Shaman!!” The captain of the guards’ eyes were bloodshot, and the bright feathers on his head looked particularly dim against the backdrop of the dark clouds.

His heart sank to the bottom of the valley as he saw the eyes of those monsters, cold, ruthless, and full of murderous intent.

"Great Tezca, your humble believer asks you to protect your people." The captain of the guard knelt on the ground and prayed in a low voice.

"Tsk tsk, it looks like these slaves are going to suffer."

In the sky, the red dragon flying in the air was looking at the scene on the ground in amazement. Sefar was also in a gloomy mood. He didn't know what to say as he looked at the tide of monsters on the ground that were about to come into contact with the city wall.

The Nazca guards lit the beacon towers, and the flames shot up into the sky, but the monsters seemed to be more numerous than the flames. Arrows dipped in flames flew into the air like rain, trying to slow down the monsters, but they seemed to feel no pain and continued to attack the city walls violently.

Soon, the first wave of monsters arrived under the city wall.

Their spider-like flexible arthropod legs allowed them to climb up the city wall without hindrance, and the guards had no choice but to draw their obsidian swords and prepare for battle.

The battle became extremely fierce from here. The guards' swords collided with the monsters' tough skin, making a harsh metal collision sound. Blood and sweat mixed together, soaking the stone bricks of the city wall. They fought bravely, but their physical strength was gradually depleted, and despair began to spread among the soldiers.

"Help, help me! Puff!"

A soldier fell to the ground and reached out to his companion next to him for help, but before he could finish his words, a bulbous monster slammed its arthropod leg into his mouth and penetrated him directly.

The other soldier's eyes turned red when he saw this, and he was about to chop down the monster that killed his brother with his sword, but the bulbous monster turned around and glared at him fiercely, and a weak psychic energy rushed into the soldier's brain.

The psychic power only affected the soldier for a few seconds, but it was enough. With a "puff", the arthropod leg pierced into the opponent's chest again.

Nazca's defenses fell.
