The Black-Silver Armored Rock Demon was already unstoppable, but Mo Fan had basically added oil to the fire. It felt like the whole city was going to collapse under the enormous pressure from the massive creature now clad in dazzling gold. Its overwhelming Ruler-level presence surged like a wild storm, turning the clock tower into a stranded island that might be devoured by fierce waves at any second. The people defending it no longer had a say in their lives.

“Let’s take the Barrier Core and run away!” Xie Qinghua ordered with a pale face.

It was all meaningless. The little spark had set the whole valley on fire. There was now no chance of putting it out. Xie Qinghua no longer had any hope of defending the Elemental Capital. She only hoped the Barrier Core did not fall into the terrifying creature’s hands. If the creature absorbed the Barrier Core, they would have basically created a terrifying rock demon that would bring even greater calamities to the country!

“Master…” Wen Xia was dismayed.

“Wen Xia, deactivate the barrier. You must bring the Barrier Core to safety, do you understand!?” Xie Qinghua said sternly.

“Master, Wen Xia isn’t afraid of dying,” Wen Xia said.

“It has nothing to do with your resolve. Do you really want to see a terrifying rock demon be born? We have already lost the fight. Are you going to let the monster absorb the Barrier Core and flatten our province? We will never forgive ourselves if we let that happen!” Xie Qinghua said.

Wen Xia bit her lips so hard that they almost bled. She did not expect it to come down to this.

Perhaps if they chose to give up on establishing the barrier and focused on fending off the demon creatures, the city and their men might still be standing now, even if they had failed to set up the elemental capital. But now, those Mages had all become part of the Rock Monsters. Their city was destroyed, and they were still struggling to figure out a way to save the Mages trapped inside the bodies of the Rock Monsters.

The unstoppable fire had spread across the valley… the city was about to become history.

Apas, wearing a short T-shirt with her midriff bared, stood on top of a building that was relatively intact. The cold moon was right above her, its icy brilliance setting off her noble, alluring figure. Her golden dust eyes made her look even more mysterious!

“These monsters don’t have a fixed leader. Even if I force that thing to detonate itself, the Rock Monsters will still attack the clock tower,” Apas said, as if she was mumbling to herself.

“You can’t let it detonate itself, Apas!” Mo Fan’s voice came out of the Contract.

“What are you doing?” Apas said.

“Cut the crap, use everything you have to help me. Otherwise, you’re screwed if I die.”

“You lunatic!” Apas snapped.

Apas gathered her focus. Her golden-dust eyes reflected the cold brilliance of the moon, like it was the only source of light in a city devoured by darkness, looming over the Golden-Armored Wolframite Demon!

The Golden-Armored Wolframite Demon grabbed its head and let out a painful screech, as if its soul had just received a serious blow.

Its bloodshot eyes suddenly shifted. As Apas’ stare gradually became more menacing, the Ruler-level creature’s ferocious aura dissipated suddenly.
