Chapter 350 All Members Gather
Chapter 350 All Members Gather
After a brief moment of slight dizziness.
With the help of the fourth mirror of the Black Tower, Lin Qiong and his group successfully projected their respective consciousnesses into Onfaros.
Lin Qiong was all too familiar with their current location.
Dawn Cloud Cliff...the closest place to the throne of the world, Cephalo.
Whenever Ohmma faces a major decision, a citizens' assembly is held here.
Whether by coincidence or not, as soon as Lin Qiong and his group arrived at Dawn Cloud Cliff, they found that the surrounding area was already crowded with people.
These people spontaneously formed a large procession, and whether they were men or women, young or old, their faces showed a devout expression.
"Are these people... going to attend a citizens' assembly?"
Lin Qiong looked at the people hurrying up the mountain and a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"What exactly happened in Ohmma while I was away?"
Lin Qiong slowly raised his head and looked at the towering, cloud-piercing stone statue.
In a daze, he saw that the stone statue seemed to have come to life, waving its arms and beckoning to him.
"...This is?"
Just when Lin Qiong thought he was seeing things and having a misperception.
A very familiar voice rang out from behind him.
"Oh my, I really didn't expect everyone to come."
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Qiong and the others immediately looked behind them, only to see two extremely familiar faces come into view.
"Danheng? And...March?"
Lin Qiong's eyes widened instantly, his tone filled with surprise.
The two people standing in front of him at this moment may have changed slightly in appearance, but the sense of familiarity etched in his memory cannot lie.
"How...did you all become like this?"
As Lin Qiong spoke, he looked the two men up and down.
Let's put March 7th aside for now, since we haven't seen each other for such a long time, it's quite reasonable for her to have acquired a new form.
What's going on with Ke Danheng?
Lin Qiong looked at the pair of golden horns on Dan Heng's head and his noticeably taller stature, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Just a few system hours ago, he and Dan Heng were still on the train.
How long have they been apart?
Danheng has unlocked a completely new form.
Even if Onpharos's time flow differs from that of the outside world, the speed at which it gains new power is still too fast, isn't it?
"Look at this..."
Dan Heng lowered his head, examined his own condition, and then let out a soft sigh, "Alas, this is a long story."
"If I had to explain, it would be that March and I each inherited the power of 'Earth' and 'Time'."
"Danheng is right."
No sooner had she finished speaking than March 7th proudly put her hands on her hips and chimed in, "This young lady is now a true demigod!"
"How about that? Pretty impressive, right?"
Lin Qiong was taken aback upon hearing this. He glanced at March 7 from beginning to end, and then said with a puzzled look, "That's not right. Wasn't the spark of time inherited by Xing?"
"How come it's March again?"
Upon hearing this, Danheng and Sanyueqi exchanged a glance and then smiled simultaneously.
"That all happened in the previous cycle."
March 7th chuckled, then looked up into the distance and said, "She's really something now."
As she spoke, she gently raised her hand, pointed to the towering Carphale statue, and continued, "The throne of the world, the Titan who bears the burden of the world, that is what people refer to."
“The pilgrims all around.”
Dan Heng picked up where March 7 left off and added, "The reason they came here is to witness the star awaken from its slumber."
"So, according to you, that enormous stone statue... could it be a star?"
At this moment, Walter Young, who was standing to the side, gently pushed up his glasses and offered his own speculation.
Upon hearing this, March 7th did not answer the question directly, but instead kept it a secret, saying, "Well, you'll find out when you go up there."
"March, it's almost time," Dan Heng suddenly reminded him.
"That's right."
Upon hearing this, March 7th immediately suppressed his smile and adopted a serious expression: "Judging by the time, she should wake up soon."
She immediately turned around, waved to everyone, and said in a lively yet solemn voice, "Qiong, Ji Zi, Uncle Yang, and everyone else, please come with me."
"It's time we went to wake up that lazybones."
......
Dawn Cloud Cliff, Demigods' Council.
When Lin Qiong and the others followed San Yueqi and Dan Heng to this spacious circular plaza.
The scene before them instantly froze them in their tracks.
On the square, the crowd was as dense as ants swarming out of their nest.
Looking around, there wasn't even a single open space to stand on.
The people in the square were all kneeling on the ground, their hands clasped together in front of their chests, chanting the same prayer.
"Ancient gods, saviors of the world!"
"Your loyal subjects, bewildered believers, and fearless comrades have all knelt before the throne."
"Awaken from your eternal slumber and bestow upon the world your divine decree!"
The voices of ten thousand people chanting in unison echoed again and again above the dawn clouds, the sound waves almost tearing the sky apart.
That's an exaggeration!
Lin Qiong stood at the back of the crowd, staring in disbelief at the scene before him, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
He turned to look at March 7th beside him, pointed to the residents kneeling on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Can you explain to me what's going on here?"
"Shh, let's not talk yet."
March 7th put her index finger to her lips, making a shushing gesture, "She'll wake up soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, a familiar and extremely authoritative female voice came from the horizon.
"I heard you...your prayers!"
As soon as the voice appeared, those who had been chanting prayers fell silent.
The people kneeling on the ground immediately raised their heads and turned their gaze to the magnificent statue.
"But...I am not a savior, but an 'unknown guest' among mortals."
"The flame will be extinguished, the age of the gods has ended, and Onphalus is about to embark on his journey among the vast stars."
The moment the woman's voice faded, the blue sky above the colossus was instantly split open by a dreamy pink glow.
At the same time, the giant sphere carried by the colossus also burst forth with a dazzling golden light.
Lin Qiong was blinded by the sudden light, so he quickly raised his hand to shield his eyes.
Until the golden light gradually subsided.
He peeked through his fingers and saw two figures slowly drifting down from the sky.
"That's... a star!"
After seeing one of the people's faces clearly, Lin Qiong couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, his voice filled with barely concealed excitement.
But the smile that had just appeared on his lips froze on his face the next second.
"Could it be—!"
When the figure beside Xing entered Lin Qiong's line of sight.
His pupils constricted instantly, and he froze on the spot, his face filled with disbelief.
The familiar silhouette, the familiar posture, especially that familiar long pink hair.
All of this made Lin Qiong involuntarily whisper that name:
"Aili...Xia?"
