Chapter 3737 Be Ready
?BANNNG!
The sudden bang rang out and the whole dome shook.
My eyes flew open, and I looked at the shaman, who had hit the protective layer covering him.
Of course, he also had the protective layer covering him and he just hit it hard enough, that it shook the whole dome. He is powerful, but the defenses of the trees are not weak either.
BANNNNG BANNNNG BANNNNG!
A moment later, he hit again and again, using more and more power. That shook my heart; I had expected the power, but seeing it with my eyes, I knew, I had underestimated a lot.
I had never seen the Prime's fight in my life.
I had seen the videos and saw the recorded data, but I didn't have the experience to see it with my eyes.
If I had, I wouldn't have been so shocked.
'Looked at this,' said my clone, and a window appeared in front of me, which instantly sobered me up.
The defenses are strong, and if it is at its peak, it wouldn't have been able to get out at all, but it is far from its peak. If I am seeing is right, then few hours, he would be able to break out of it.
With his access, he could also see the data and likely why continuously hitting the protective field.
'Once he got out, we all will be in a trouble,' I thought, but quickly shook away that thought. Yes, there will be trouble. He alone would be more than enough to suppress it all.
Still, that doesn't mean, I wouldn't try.
I pushed everything aside and focused on the priorities. First is keeping him contained and second is sending the life-force back, which is happening steadily and should be finished before it broke through the protective field.
I hope someone has something that could help us deal with him.
Which is unlikely, as people rarely have weapons to deal with Prime's lying around in their storage. Still, I would ask around, if someone has it; they might.
It would have been a much easier. If I had the lone access to both of the gems. It would help me, keeping him contained while releasing everybody else. Currently, I couldn't do that, he had enough access, that if I tried, he would also get out.
Minutes pa.s.sed and fruits disappeared off the tree one after another, while the shaman kept hitting the protective s.h.i.+eld continuously.
He didn't stop or took break; he hit the s.h.i.+elds.
Soon, only four fruits have remained, when I gained the life force I had lost. I am the first one, who has gained back the lost life-force. There are thousands before me, but unlike me, most of their bodies stopped accepting more life-force.
There are some extremely few which are still accepting it, but their speed reduced considerably, and they are stopping at every second.
The only body which hasn't had any change in its ravenousness is mine. It is still crazily absorbing the energies, and I didn't stop it; I had let it absorb.
I want to see how much my body would accept.
It was quite dangerous and wouldn't have done that. If not for, finding something, that will be very useful to me in it. Though it will come with some problems; I am confident that I will be able to deal with them.
I turned to Shaman, and it was still hitting the protective s.h.i.+eld.
I could also see he is talking with his cultists with the help of white gem. As the protective s.h.i.+eld blocked everything, including the soul sense.
I wish I could hear what he is talking about, but he has enough access to block me from it.
I might not hear what they are talking about, but I could guess what they are talking about. It is likely finding who is doing this and then redoing the ritual.
Of course, they could do the ritual, and they will do it, given the chance.
They have prepared for it over a thousand years for it. Consumed innumerable resources, lost a lot of their members; they will not stop, till they accomplished their goal.
I will be stopping them with everything I have. There is no option than it, unless I want to die.
Minutes pa.s.sed, and there are only two apples have remained when I finally stopped taking the energy further. I could take it more. My body is still hungry, but I have already taken a took much.
Though I may have taken more what had been taken from me; it is n.o.body's loss.
There is not just life-force in there, but also other energies. So, it is more than enough to give everyone back what they have lost.
I focused on those who are still receiving the life-force, all of them are Sky-Sovereigns and the life-force they are taking is ma.s.sive, but it is not surprising.
They are Sky Sovereigns.
Soon, there is only one golden apple had remained on the tree and less than 10% of the Sky Sovereign receiving it and most of them are near the limit.
They might not be able to take all the energy from the apple.
I turned to the other graph and could tell; we have around an hour before he broke through the protective s.h.i.+eld and burst out.
I think, it is time to ask the question.
'Does anyone have strength or some artifact or method that could deal with a grade 4 strength Sky Sovereign?' I asked and immediately, shocked expressions on the expressions on many.
A moment later, many begin to shake their head, while there was complete silence in connection.
'Well, be ready; in an hour. We all need to throw ourselves at him and hope, it will be enough to defeat him,' I said, and a mirthless smile appeared on the faces of many people.
They understood what will be the chances of that would be, but no objection came from them as it is the only way we could have a chance to get out of this place alive.
Finally, the last person stopped absorbing the fruit, and I turned to the shaman. The time, he and us clash isn't far.
