350 Hellhound (2/2)
There would not be any problems in the meantime. In fact, it might even feel smooth but once the symphony reached the climax, various problems would arise in the vast music theory system.
It was okay to make an old guy take a walk. However, it would be interesting if one made the old guy put on knee pads, take some stimulants, and go run a marathon!
Crack! Another jagged crack appeared on the scepter but the strength of the territory increased again. The soldiers shone with tangible light. They had all seemed to turn into gold like in Middle Eastern legends.
God's power operated on the earth. There would be horrible after-effects, but the power now was undeniable. Colt practically broke his teeth while clenching his jaw. Ye Qingxuan was gambling everyone's lives! It was like a bunch of amateur athletes had to survive until the old decathlon winner died!
This time, Colt was not even fifty percent sure. While his expression changed, the symphony rose to another level.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Three cracks appeared on the scepter at once but the sea of light was unfaltering! Even the sun was on the brink of falling…
All the musicians trembled. Their gut instincts told them to bow down. This was beyond the Distortion level—the scepter was brewing true godly power!
”We really can't avoid it?” At the front, Torre gazed at the aggressive sunlight and sighed. Looking toward his brother, he waved lightly. ”Casper, come here.”
Enshrouded by layers of beastly mouths, Casper seemed to hear him. He twisted around and scampered over on all limbs like a black wolf.
Torre reached out and he stopped. Torre placed his hand on his forehead. ”I'm sorry, Casper,” he murmured with eyes lowered.
Thin rings of music notes appeared on Torre's wrist. They spun and fastened until they meandered to Casper's face. Chains of music notes dove into Casper's features until they reached his bones. There, they connected into a music theory and the aether transformed into a key.
Torre closed his eyes and the 'key' began to rotate.
[Surface humanity seal – Unlocked]
Casper stiffened but his limbs began convulsing. The light in his eyes dimmed bit by bit until it sank into darkness. In the last moment, he stared at Torre. His lips opened as if he was speaking. His thin and unclear voice called, ”Brother…” When he opened his eyes again, they were startling red.
Overlapping roars sounded from the empty air around him. Countless mournful wails appeared without stop as if thousands and thousands of beasts were killing each other. This was the elegy of beasts dying and demons being reborn!
Countless beasts continued to die but the beastly nature were reborn in Casper's body, controlling him with the humanity's seal. Fiery red shadows appeared in the aether sea.
Strong resonance shot out from Casper's body and stirred the aether sea as he roared. The resonance reflected upon the fiery shadow which then covered his body. The frail youth expanded, changed, and burst with lava-like firelight.
The destructive firelight blinded all who saw. The slovenly youth had vanished, replaced with a ball of fire that shot to the sky. Amongst the flames, a giant dragon-like tail swept across. Black hair flowing with lava followed. The hairs writhed like venomous snakes.
Next, three giant heads spitting sulfur rose from the fire. Black venom dripped from their mouths, falling onto the ground and eroding the tiles with crackles. The poisonous aura spread. The Romulusian warriors eroded and quickly lost the strength from the legend, returning back to normal…
Four eyes on the skull searched around. When its gaze reached there, it froze and stiffened.
The firelight expanded and transformed into the gates to hell. The manmade demon that resulted from centuries of Summoning musicians' work walked out of the fire. It roared!
This was beastly nature that no human could control. Merely looking at it would make one cave in and tremble from fear.
It was the Hellhound!
