Fortunately, Kaecilius did not intend to kill Kamar-Taj after weighing the pros and cons.
It was not because Kaecilius was kind-hearted or nostalgic, but because it was not cost-effective.
After all, Kamar-Taj was the base camp of the mages. If they wanted to completely wipe out Kamar-Taj, they would need to pay more manpower costs.
And just as Kaecilius planned, he still had three holy sanctuaries to capture, and no extra manpower and energy could be used here.
The remaining mages also analyzed it in this way. They were led by an Asian mage king and a black mage Mordo.
“Kaecilius’s magic obviously came from the dark dimension. He is a believer of Dormammu! Then for Dormammu, he must abolish the three holy sanctuaries to break the barrier and let Dormammu invade the earth!”
The three holy sanctuaries were the ritual barriers set up by the first supreme mage Agamotto, the creator of the Eye of Agamotto. They can cover the entire earth through three nodes, thus resisting the invasion of the dimensional demon god.
In other words, as long as these three nodes are broken, it will be like a door opened, and Dormammu can come in unimpeded!
“I will make Kaecilius regret not completely destroying Kamar-Taj!”
Mordo gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
Wang used to be the administrator of the library. Hearing this, he pondered: “I just checked it out. The books stolen by Kaecilius are rituals to summon Dormammu and draw power from the dark dimension…”
“Dormamu is the master of the dark dimension. He is the devourer of the universe and the destroyer of the world. He has infinite energy and great ambitions. He has brought many worlds into darkness. We must not let him succeed!”
The seriousness and importance of this matter need not be said. Dormammu is so powerful that no one can resist him, so Dormammu must not be allowed to come.
Otherwise… it will be the end of the world!
Mordo nodded and said, “We have mages stationed in the three Sanctuaries. Which Sanctuary do you think he will attack first? The Sanctuary of London, the Sanctuary of New York, or the Sanctuary of Hong Kong?”
“The importance of the three Sanctuaries is the same, which is difficult to judge,” Wang frowned, “but we can’t disperse our forces to guard the Sanctuary, otherwise we will be even more unable to resist Kaecilius.”
Just as they were hesitating and struggling, Kaecilius made a choice for them.
The alarm bells rang, and everyone’s faces changed!
“It’s the Sanctuary of London!”
218. Chapter 216 Dormammu’s Fury!
218.
The ancient building of the Sanctuary of London was looming in the concealing magic. With a “bang”, the door was suddenly pushed open by an invisible force, and Kaecilius and his men broke into the Sanctuary like ghosts.
Their arrival was like a cold wind passing through the empty hall, making a whimpering sound.
“Welcome to death, mages of London.”
Casillas’s deep voice echoed in the empty hall, carrying an ominous omen.
His eyes flashed with purple flames, which was a sign of dark magic and a foreshadowing of destruction!
“Crack!”
He first dragged everyone around him into the mirror world. Casillas’s cold and ruthless eyes flashed with a cold light. This was the killing field he had prepared!
Soon, Casillas led his men to wreak havoc on the Sanctuary of London like a dark storm.
They killed innocent mages one by one, and their blood dyed the hall of the sanctuary red, filling the entire space with the breath of death!
However, at this critical moment, the other mages of the Sanctuary of London did not panic too much after they reacted, but quickly prepared to meet the challenge.
After all, they had actually been warned after Kamar-Taj was attacked.
El, Lina and Smith, the three leading wizards stationed in the Sanctuary of London, quickly gathered together. Their weapons flashed with various magical lights, forming a sharp contrast with the darkness.
“Casillas, you traitor!”
El raised his magic weapon high, and a beam of light rushed straight towards Casillas.
Casillas sneered, and with a wave of his hand, a black energy shield blocked El’s beam.
He replied coldly: “I just threw myself into the arms of darkness. I want to show you that darkness is the eternal master!”
Lina and Smith did not hesitate and immediately joined the battle.
Smith’s lightning flashed in the darkness, and the roar echoed in the Sanctuary of the Sanctuary. Lina manipulated the water element to form a series of cold barriers to block Casillas’s men.
The battle entered a white-hot stage. Although Casillas’ men were numerous, they gradually showed a retreating trend under the joint attack of the three wizards and the members of the Sanctuary of London.
However, Casillas still did not take action himself. He just stood aside and sneered, as if waiting for something.
Finally, when the mages in the Sanctum Sanctorum gradually gained the upper hand, Casillas took action.
Just like in Kamar-Taj, Casillas only liked to take action at this moment, reverse the situation in one fell swoop, and enjoy the other party’s desperate expression!
He jumped up, suspended in the air, with his hands raised above his head.
A powerful dark energy gushed out from him, instantly enveloping the entire Sanctum Sanctorum!
This energy carried a breath of destruction, as if it was going to devour the entire Sanctum Sanctorum in London.
“Guaa!”
“So strong!”
“Damn it!”
The three archmages defended with all their strength, but the energy seemed to be alive, constantly eroding their defenses.
“This is the power of our lord Dormammu, you cannot resist it.” Casillas’s voice was full of arrogance, “I will use your lives to sacrifice and open a new dark era!”
“Don’t even think about it!”
Even at this life-and-death moment, the three archmages still did not give up.
They cooperate with each other to resist the powerful dark energy.
Al uses his magic to try to dispel the darkness; Lena summons the water element, forming a huge wall of water; Smith unleashes a more powerful lightning attack.
This battle seems to have become a stasis point in time and space, and all actions are frozen at this moment——
Only the purple dark energy and various magical lights intertwined, collided, and exploded in the Holy of Holies. Every impact made a deafening sound, which was heart-stopping!
“Boom!!!”
As soon as the reinforcements from Karma Taj opened the portal, they were greeted by the shocking fire and shock wave.
Suddenly the mages were knocked upside down by the explosion. They finally got up and took a look, only to find that it was already too late.
Nearly half of the Holy Sanctuary in London was destroyed in this big explosion, and it can no longer function as a barrier node!
In fact, Karma Taj’s assistance was in vain. Even at the base camp, he was no match for Casillas, let alone when he went to the Holy of Holies?
Facing the defeated group of remnants, Casillas won with great ease, destroying the Sanctuary of New York with lightning speed.
The Sanctuary of New York is located on Blake Street in Greenwich Village. It is still some distance away from the headquarters of the World Tree Consortium, and the mages are not too powerful when fighting, and the scope of damage is basically limited to the Sanctuary.
Coupled with the shielding magic that comes with the Holy of Holies… As a result, there was not much commotion in the end, and not even one of the local superheroes in New York was attracted.
This was in line with Casillas’ plan. In fact, in order to avoid unnecessary complications, he deliberately restrained himself a lot when fighting in the Sanctuary of New York and only wanted a quick victory. It was indeed effective.
Only the last remaining sanctuary in Hong Kong is left!
…
Under the blue sky, the sun shone through the clean glass windows and fell on Gao Li’s slightly tired face.
At this moment, Gao Li was concentrating on debugging a complex instrument. He was immersed in a pile of complicated charts and data, trying to find clues to solve this problem.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open gently, and Izzy walked in quickly.
She was holding a tablet in her hand, and a news item was playing on the screen.
“President Gaoli, I think you need to take a look at this.” Izzy’s expression was solemn.
Gao Li raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and watched Izzy frown.
“What news is so urgent?” he asked softly.
Izzy placed the tablet on the lab table and pointed at the video on the screen.
“This is a live broadcast from Hong Kong, part of the city being swallowed up by an expanding alien world.”
Gao Li came closer to the screen and saw a helicopter flying at low altitude during the live broadcast, with the camera focused on an area.
What was originally a bustling urban area has now turned into a strange space that changes repeatedly.
Buildings, streets, and people flickered in and out of the cracks, as if they were being slowly swallowed by an irresistible force!
On the helicopter, a reporter said to the camera with a horrified face: “We don’t know what happened…Who can come and save us?!”
“What is going on? How could this happen…”
Gauri muttered, concern flashing in his eyes.
“Based on searches on the internet, the situation is getting more serious,” Izzy explained.
“The whole city seemed to be enveloped by strange forces, and the buildings disappeared in a blur of light. The police said they were trying their best to evacuate the trapped citizens, but the situation was still very bad.”
Gao Li took a deep breath and put down the tablet.
“I have to go to Hong Kong and see, maybe I can find a solution.”
After all, it looks like… another world is swallowing this world. Could this be the so-called dimensional invasion?
Gao Li thought of the dimensional demons he saw on the timeline. If this is true, then he should also shoulder the responsibility as the guardian of the earth.
Gao Li quickly used the Zone memory to transform. When he crossed the space gate and arrived in Hong Kong, Gao Li was still surprised by the sight before him.
The city that used to be brightly lit is now wrapped in a layer of vague light. The buildings seem to be swallowed up by the power of another world. The chaotic scene makes it impossible to identify the direction.
The scene was already chaos, with panicked people running in all directions and the lights of police cars and fire trucks flashing.
The scene in the city becomes even weirder, as if we have entered a distorted reality!
“It seems that the source is in the sky, the alien space and time that is constantly expanding!”
Once transformed into Kamen Rider Zone, Gauri’s ability to sense space immediately improved several levels, and he could clearly feel that this was indeed a dimensional invasion.
However, Gao Li is not in a hurry to use Zone memory to fight against the dark dimension. It is just a temporary solution, not the root cause.
“Time!”
Gao Li first switched to the Time memory, and then launched the ultimate drive to turn back the time of the world.
And the causes and consequences that Gao Li wants to know must also be hidden in this reversal of time!
As Hong Kong recovered to the state before the disaster, Gorri could see the starting point of the disaster, which was caused by an explosion in a church-like building in Hong Kong.
That was the Hong Kong Holy of Holies!
Casillas and his men walked out of the ruins, with magical lights flashing on their bodies, and shouted to the sky.
“Come! Lord Dormammu!”
The summoning ceremony of the dark dimension was immediately activated, and the portal of the earth without the protection of the barrier was opened. The entrance to Dormammu’s dark dimension was directly above Hong Kong!
“I see…”
Gorri raised his eyebrows, pulled out the Time memory and replaced it with the Zone memory, and then inserted it into the kill slot and slapped it.
“Zone! Maximum Drive!”
The amazing blue light swept across the streets and alleys, and Casillas and his men were also shocked when they saw it.
“Who is it!?”
However, Gorri was too fast. The ability to travel through space meant that it was almost equal to zero distance launch, and there was no room for dodging at all.
To outsiders, Gorri took Casillas and his men away in one go!
The destination of Gorri’s space transfer was to jump directly into the dark dimension that opened wide in the sky to face Dormammu, the ruler of the dark dimension.
“Is this… the dark dimension?”
After the initial confusion, Casillas and a group of mages were overjoyed to see the surrounding environment.
Isn’t this equivalent to their base camp?
Gorri also appeared leisurely, which made Casillas narrow his eyes.
“Who are you? Why did you suddenly teleport us into the dark dimension?”
To be honest, Casillas himself was a little confused whether the other party was an enemy or a friend.
