Chapter 963: Apex of the Mountain Peak, Beneath the Heavenly Court (4k)
Because that ‘Bloody Saint Maiden’ was indeed a very important part of their plan. Although they had never entered the ‘Heavenly Court’, they understood from the holy scriptures that the current Heavenly Court possessed a high level of danger.
Thus, their only thought was to give “everything.” Their so-called “full effort” meant everyone participating.
As for whether to enter the Heavenly Court ahead of time, it made no difference to them—not really.
After all, they were in a competitive relationship with the Northern Territory, so it was impossible for them to let the Northern Territory take the lead.
“So, as usual, we will vote in three parts,” Professor Metia said.
Gavin North immediately said, “Our intentions have already been clearly expressed.”
Professor Metia nodded and said, “Then our two votes. What about the Bishop?”
Bishop Sabrina Melville’s expression became increasingly serious, but after careful consideration, she could only say, “Let’s do it together!”
Professor Metia said, “That makes three votes in favor. Now, let’s head to the mountain peak immediately.”
But as soon as she finished speaking, Bishop Sabrina Melville said, “Wait, I think we might have overlooked something?”
Gavin North asked, “What could it be?”
Bishop Sabrina Melville said, “Have you noticed that since we entered the Mountain of Gods, we haven’t encountered any elemental race?”
The moment she finished speaking, Gavin North’s expression changed, “Have they already gone in?”
Bishop Sabrina Melville said, “They might have already taken the lead.”
Count Stanley Longfellow immediately exclaimed, “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go now!”
Professor Metia said, “Considering they are the moon elementals, it wouldn’t be surprising if they reached the mountain peak first. Moreover, we wasted a lot of time in two places during this period. The elemental race team might have arrived at the mountain peak and entered the Heavenly Court before the night falls and the fog beasts start to rebel. Of course, it’s also possible that they simply got lost in the fog.”
Bishop Sabrina Melville said, “I hope it’s the latter.”
Professor Metia smiled and said, “Since it has come to this, even if they have already entered the Heavenly Court, we cannot change the fact. However, starting now should reduce more losses.”
Bishop Sabrina Melville said, “No point in further discussion. Give me three minutes, then we’ll set off.”
Gavin North suddenly said, “Then how do we deal with those beasts in the fog?”
Professor Metia directly said, “Don’t worry, we will handle it.”
After the three representatives returned to their teams, Professor Metia also returned to the pumpkin carriage. “Who will go?” Professor Shylph asked. Dak was somewhat tempted.
But Professor Metia directly said, “There is an ethereal ghost-type golem that ignores physical attacks, which I happen to have.”
Professor Shylph asked, “For the first move, to ensure success, I will send the Wind Element Lord Shylph along.”
Professor Metia said, “No problem.”
Immediately after, the ethereal ghost-type golem summoned by Professor Metia was carried by the Wind Element Lord Shylph towards the giant whale’s nest.
Once fully elementalized, the Wind Element Lord Shylph was just a breeze, not fearing attacks from the fog beasts.
The ethereal ghost-type golem summoned by Professor Metia could not only become intangible but could also hide, making it a very suitable choice.
Once the summoning was successful, Professor Shylph lifted the window.
A gentle breeze blew out, and both golems disappeared. Professor Shylph said, “With the Wind Element Lord’s speed, they should arrive in about five to six minutes.”
Professor Metia nodded and began arranging the crystal ball. Three minutes later.
The Holy Church’s team and the Northern Territory’s team reorganized and lined up behind the carriage.
Bishop Sabrina Melville and Gavin North and others came to either side of the pumpkin carriage.
The fossilized pterodactyl, transformed from the ‘Mountain Giant Sword,’ sat back on the carriage board.
The man-eating flower behemoth walked in front under Eralganie’s direction. The entire team gradually moved forward after pushing apart the mist.
Upon reaching the outer area of the mountain peak region, Professor Shylph confirmed again that all the fog beasts had disappeared, and the entire team suddenly accelerated.
In the night without fog beasts, except for the mist, the path ahead was clear.
Under such circumstances, the marching speed of the team increased to its limit. After infiltrating the nest, Professor Shylph’s Wind Element Lord Shylph and Professor Metia’s ethereal ghost-type golem gave the giant whale a strike at the first opportunity, then hid and played hide-and-seek with the giant whale.
During this time, the team climbed the mountain and finally arrived at the mountain peak!
This mountain peak was like a flattened corner, revealing a flat and open space.
Moreover, the mist here had obviously become thinner, and one could faintly see with the naked eye.
If one looked up, one could immediately see the rolling dark clouds and the lightning jumping within.
“Rumble!”
Thunder rumbled, and dark clouds gathered.
A dark vortex quietly hid within the clouds.
Even though they had never entered before, one could guess that the vortex within the clouds was the entrance to the so-called Heavenly Court!
From the moment they approached the summit, the team felt the terrifying aura leaking from the entrance of the Heavenly Court.
And upon reaching the summit, that aura became even more terrifying and oppressive, so much so that even the silver-armored knights of the Holy Church could barely withstand it.
Some warriors from the Northern Territory found it difficult to breathe and move.
Only when a hymn echoed from the Holy Church’s war chariot did the terrifying aura dissipate, allowing those warriors to catch their breath.
However, under such circumstances, it was clearly evident that some people had lost their qualifications before entering the Heavenly Court.
“My suggestion is not to force it.”
Professor Shylph suppressed the urge to rush into the Heavenly Court and said to Bishop Sabrina Melville and Gavin North.
Both of them were extremely decisive and immediately excluded the team members who were significantly affected, ordering them to leave quickly.
Professor Shylph said, “Hurry, I can’t guarantee when those fog beasts will reappear.”
Bishop Sabrina Melville and Gavin North immediately emphasized this.
Those members gradually recovered after descending the mountain and continuously accelerated, exiting the highest peak area at a faster pace than when they arrived.
Their escort mission ended here.
