Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2524  Failsafe Triggered

Qiulong Jiao's roar was full of indignation and everyone could tell that he felt wronged.

~WHOOSH~

Lin Mu blinked and appeared next to the Flood Dragon, incredibly anxious about the situation.

"What happened? Why did the Golden Cage disappear?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Those cunning bastards were always two steps ahead. Looks like they set up a final failsafe to prevent the Soul Fragment falling in anyone's hands." The Flood Dragon answered. "But shouldn't the Golden Cage be far too weak to do anything?" Lin Mu asked feeling confused.

"Yes, but it seemed like its being supported by the entire city's power array now." The Flood Dragon said, sensing the changes happening within the city. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

~RUMBLE~

The city shook harder and soon everyone felt a weight being pressed upon them.

"What's happening!?" "Why do I feel heavy?" "Is this a restraining array!?" They were all shocked and tried to overcome it with their Qi.

"Wait, this isn't an array." Lady Kang could sense no Qi working in this. "Its the weight of the water itself!" she stated.

"Why would it be affecting us now with the talisman protecting us?" they were confused.

"The water isn't the one affecting you all intentionally, its actually staying in the same place. It's the city that is causing this… It is rising." The Flood Dragon revealed making everyone stunned.

"Why would it rise!?" Lin Mu couldn't understand. "Isn't the city supposed to stay hidden?" it went against the reason behind building the city.

"It's to do with the fail-safe." The Flood Dragon replied. "It's directing all power in destroying the Soul Fragment." He revealed.

"What?" Lin Mu's eyes went wide. "That works in our favor then." "It's not that simple. The destruction of the Soul Fragment will require the self destruction of the entire city. If the self destruction is not stopped, the resultant explosion will destroy everything within a radius of five hundred kilometers or more!" the Flood Dragon warned. "We need to get away from here, NOW!" "SHIT!" Lin Mu hadn't expected that the favor they had gotten was poisoned.

"I'll open up a path!" The Flood Dragon said as it opened its mouth wide.

~WOONG~

Massive amount of energy condensed within its mouth as it breathed out.

It was a Dragon Breath!

~BOOM~

The Dragon Breath surged through the water straight up and blew through the ceiling of the prison. But it didn't stop just there, it continued onwards and destroyed all that was in its path including the stairwell and the halls above.

~CRUMBLE~

The massive statue of the Atlantean standing above crumbled and fell as a deep hole was created.

"Everyone flee!" Lin Mu ordered through the jade slips.

It didn't take much for everyone to do it as they had already sensed things going south. They used all their power to rise through the water, but they were still limited by it and were slowed down.

"Flood Dragon's Rising Current!" Qiulong Jiao swung his tail, creating a large current that pushed everyone, giving them a boost that finally allowed them to reach the surface!

"Shit! Won't we crash into the barrier!?" They remembered the barrier they had been unable to get through before.

"We don't have enough time to activate the Aura Sealing Talisman!" they now felt like they were about to be crushed to death.

But the Flood Dragon had done all this internationally, knowing more than them.

"The barrier doesn't exist anymore. The arrays are redirecting all power to self destruction." The Flood Dragon spoke as it flew alongside Lin Mu.

~SPLASH~SPLASH~SPLASH~

Everyone's hearts felt like they were about to jump out of their chests at any moment, but they managed to get to the surface safely.

~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~

They rose to the sky and soon saw the Atlantean city rising under them. The Aquatic beasts dwelling in the city had been caught off guard with only a few speedy ones managing to escape the city in time. As such, a scene of flailing beasts could be seen in the city that had now risen a hundred meters above the ocean's surface.

Still, these were all Immortal Beasts, thus they could fly enough to manage their way out. Only the plants and the immortal beasts, like barnacles, and limpets that were immobile, were fated to be stuck.

But they didn't know that the sword of doom was not going to get away from their head so easily.

~DENG~DENG~DENG~DENG~DENG~

Over a hundred pillars suddenly rose from the rubbles of the city, statues of Atlanteans all visible on them. But these were different from the previous statues that they had seen. They were not made from a stone but rather a strange mineral.

"What's happening?"

"What are those statues?" Lin Mu looked at them too and felt a strange energy from them. The statues seemed to be made from a silvery mineral that had an iridescent glow to it. They looked like the Atlanteans but they were in the best condition, showing no wear and tear.

~RUMBLE~

But they weren't the only structures that rose, as from the very center of the city another large pillar rose. But this pillar held a golden object at the very top.

"Look! Isn't that the Golden Cage!?" Crown Princess Shang pointed.

Lin Mu spotted the flickering indigo Soul fragment within it, confirming that it was their target.

~WOOM~WOOM~WOOM~

Once the golden cage reached the top, the strange silvery mineral statues all pointed their tridents at the golden cage as a red glow began to form on it.

"Lin Mu, you need to get away from here! The Atlantean Neptunium is getting unstable! They are going to use its unstable energy to destroy the cage!" Xukong saw the situation getting worse and quickly warned him. "What!?" Lin Mu's eyes went wide.

"When it is out of water its power cannot be contained and it gets unstable." Xukong explained. "And with the amount that's present, the explosion won't be as small as the Flood Dragon said.
