Chapter 332 The Void Eye, a Sudden Intervention, Position Deviates

Just as the remaining high-ranking members of the Parthenon were desperately activating the final spatial teleportation array within the Temple of the Goddesses—rays of silver light shot into the sky, and spatial fluctuations surged violently, about to transport them away from this fallen land—

Anomalies are brewing once more!
High above in the vast sky, the enormous Void Eye—Vek'z—coldly overlooks the entire European continent. Its core pupil slightly shifts, precisely locking onto the spatial energy fluctuations attempting to escape from the Temple of the Goddess below.

A deep, purplish-black beam of energy suddenly condensed and burst forth from the depths of the giant eye in the sky!
It seemed to disregard spatial distance; one moment it was still in the heavens, and the next it had already descended upon us.

Like a divine spear of judgment hurled down, it struck the very center of the dazzling teleportation array in the Goddess Palace with unparalleled precision!

The trajectory of this beam of void destruction completely ignored the dense nether fog that Hades had laid out above Parthenon.

The darkest mist, powerful enough to erode the soul and isolate perception, seemed to become a mere illusion before this purplish-black beam of light, easily penetrated without causing the slightest obstruction or weakening.

This scene triggered a simultaneous reaction from Hades and Zeus, who were focused on destroying Parthenon below. Their massive heads snapped up, and a hint of undisguised shock flashed across their molten gold and dark eyes!

They could clearly sense that the energy level contained in this beam of light was no weaker than their imperial power at its peak, and perhaps even stronger!
This is a form of power that they cannot fully comprehend, yet instinctively fear.

"Roar?" Zeus let out a low, thunderous roar tinged with doubt.

Hades was surrounded by swirling dark mist, remaining silent, but the shock in his heart was no less than that of his brother.

They had already sensed the enormous eye hanging high in the sky when they were first resurrected by Soraka's Star Array.

The emanating void power made them feel uncomfortable and repulsed.

Because revenge was their primary objective, they temporarily suppressed their instinct to explore and ignored it.

At this moment, seeing this mysterious giant eye in space suddenly make its move, its target being the fleeing remnants of Parthenon, Zeus and Hades, in their shock, made a judgment: these mysterious creatures seem to be friends rather than enemies!

Meanwhile, within the Temple of the Goddess, disaster had already struck.

When this void energy invaded the teleportation array, the originally stable, flowing silver-white spatial radiance was instantly stained with an ominous purplish-black layer!
The entire magic circle emitted a violent buzzing sound, began to flicker and shake wildly, and the rune chains that constructed the space became extremely unstable!

"Stay calm! Everyone, don't panic!" The temple's matriarch, Pamis, suppressed the shock in her heart.

They didn't understand why the Eye of the Void would suddenly intervene and disrupt their teleportation.

"This array is the temple's ultimate foundation, blessed and empowered by the divine power of successive goddesses and sages. Once fully activated, it will become self-contained, and no external force can forcibly interrupt its transmission!"

Parthenon's last resort, built with all his resources, indeed possessed extremely strong resistance to interference and was not destroyed by Vel'Koz.

However, she underestimated the strangeness and domineering nature of the void's power.

Although the penetrating void energy failed to stop the teleportation, it severely polluted and distorted the spatial coordinates originally set by the magic array!

A violent sense of spatial tearing came over everyone in the magic circle, making them feel dizzy and disoriented, as if they had been thrown into a turbulent vortex.

The silver light and the purplish-black void energy intertwined wildly, and finally, in a blinding flash of light, they devoured everyone inside the formation!

...I don't know how much time passed, perhaps a moment, perhaps eternity.

When the Temple Mother, the Great Sage, and some survivors of the family struggled to open their eyes from the intense discomfort of spatial teleportation, the scene that greeted them stunned them instantly.

The three void rifts in the sky, like scars and constantly emanating an ominous aura,... disappeared.

Instead, there was a gigantic, radiant, and intensely hot golden disc hanging high in the sky!
It is like a second sun, but its light carries an undeniable majesty and an ancient sense of oppression, scorching the earth and burning their nerves.

The air was filled with the dry, scorching smell of sand and dust. As far as the eye could see, there was an endless golden desert and scattered, huge, broken stone pillars.

The great sage's pupils suddenly contracted, and he uttered a name that sent chills down everyone's spines:
"No...Africa...This isn't Asia, it's Africa, that's...the Shurima Empire, Azir's Sun Disk!!"

Their original destination was Asia, because at that time, Asia was not experiencing large-scale demon attacks compared to Europe and Africa.

Unexpectedly, due to the interference of Vel'Koz's void power, the spatial coordinates shifted drastically, and they ended up falling into the territory of another equally terrifying ancient emperor with an unpredictable relationship with humans—the Desert Emperor Azir!
In an instant, the sense of relief at surviving the ordeal vanished, and everyone immediately became vigilant.

They've just escaped one danger only to fall into another!

Suppressing her shock and unease, the Lady of the Temple, Pamis, glanced at the sages, knights, and elders around her who were exhausted of magic power, and said, "Gentlemen, calm yourselves down for now. At least for the moment, we have not exposed our whereabouts and are not in immediate danger. The most urgent task is to recover our magic power as soon as possible and stabilize our injuries."

"Once we recover a bit, we'll plan how to cross this desert and move towards Asia."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and quickly concealed their presence, using the shadows of the broken boulders and sand dunes to minimize their own visibility.

Shortly after they had concealed themselves, a gliding sound and a hissing came from the distant sand dunes.

A demon patrol was seen approaching their area. Leading them was none other than the alluring Medusa, a serpent demon lord exuding a chilling, bloodthirsty aura!

Her upper body resembled that of a seductive woman, while her lower body was that of a thick and terrifying snake. Wherever she crawled, the yellow sand crystallized.

She led her serpent demons and sand scale guards, cautiously patrolling the area, her cold, vertical pupils flashing with suspicion and a predatory light.

She patrolled back and forth twice, found nothing unusual, then turned around and led her team away in a winding path, disappearing into the sweltering heat.

Only after the serpent demon had completely disappeared did the Parthenon members dare to slowly exhale the stale air that had been trapped in their chests.

An indescribable sense of frustration and shame spread through their hearts.

Considering their noble status—they were either top-tier experts among the super-level or elders of the forbidden spell hall, how glorious they were in the past—now they had to hide and evade a mere monarch-level snake demon during its patrol in this desolate land!
However, reality is chillingly cold.

They were all wounded and their magic was depleted.

In this completely unfamiliar imperial territory, surrounded by powerful enemies, any act of recklessness could lead to annihilation.

Despite their immense resentment and humiliation, they could only grit their teeth, suppress all their emotions, and continue to hide behind the scorching sand and stones.
