Time Battlefield

"What?"

Chen Chong was shocked, feeling that the air in the entire area was twisting and hot, and hurriedly accelerated, not daring to believe:

"The terror demons are all dead, so what's the point of blocking!"

Cheng Shi roared to explain:

"Perhaps the Continent of Hope doesn't know that the terror demon army is dead. I was wondering why the contact was so fast this time. This should be the real Song of Blood and Fire!

Survive for 24 hours amidst the Terror Demon army's raid and the Meteor Fire Rain strikes!

We encountered the terror demons early! Causing us to have a wrong understanding of the trial!"

Cao Sansui was shocked, not daring to believe:

"How is it possible..."

Turning to think of something, he was even more shocked:

"You mean, the Skeleton Army learned of the Continent of Hope's blocking plan, so they sent troops early to avoid the strike?"

"Right!" Cheng Shi gritted his teeth, "And we happened to run into it! The destruction of the Continent of Hope might not be a defeat in war. Something went wrong inside them!"

"Damn, stop chatting, heal me, mental strength is insufficient!"

Cheng Shi hurriedly stopped the topic, and a fierce healing spell hit Chen Chong's belly.

As for why it was the belly, don't ask. Asking is that it happened to be at hand, definitely not some weird hobby.

At the moment of life and death, all weird hobbies must be put aside.

This time it wasn't very lucky, one shot hit the mark, Chen Chong's belly bulged slightly, but fortunately, the speed increased by three parts again.

"It's too late, the meteorite strike range is too large, Chen Chong, how many times can the Holy Light City Wall hold?"

Chen Chong blurted out: "Three times, I lack A-grade defensive talents, the fourth time it will definitely break!"

Cheng Shi frowned and calculated carefully, and Cao Sansui on the side immediately shouted:

"Enough! According to the falling speed of the meteorites, the initial stage is not very fast, enough to support me opening the 【Time Battlefield】!"

Time Battlefield!?

Right! Forgot about this!

Cheng Shi revealed an enlightened and exaggerated smile on his face.

It seems that next, he needs to find a real way to survive in the time loop.

"Everyone! Come to my side!"

Chen Chong roared, threw down the two people in his hands, took out the giant shield, both hands bulging with veins, and slammed the shield tip into the mud.

Looking up at the meteorites falling like rain, he roared:

"Order lasts forever!"

The radiance of 【Order】 erupted again, turning into a city wall and covering the six people under it.

Outside the bright light curtain, the air temperature was getting higher and higher, the space was twisting due to scorching heat, and the earth was cracking due to roasting.

Everyone looked up and saw the giant sun fire burning high, meteorites whistling and falling, and each scorched tail mark was like a carving knife, tearing the sky like thin paper, just like seeing the shock of the end of the world.

If they weren't under the meteorites, but outside the strike range, this might be a beautiful scene that would be unforgettable for a lifetime.

"Chen Chong, hold on! 1 minute and 12 seconds left!"

Chen Chong held the shield tightly and gritted his teeth:

"Attention, it's coming!"

As soon as the words fell!

"Boom—"

Everyone only felt their vision go dark, and a huge meteorite fireball exploded on the light curtain.

Immediately after, the scorching light poured into their eyes, and the exploded flames covered the sky like magma splashing, instantly wrapping the Holy Light City Wall.

Even the light curtain that blocked countless terror demon invasions was shaken left and right by this violent potential energy at this moment.

Chen Chong trembled all over, and his skin began to turn red.

Too hot!

"Priest, heal!"

Nangong didn't say a word and began to release small healing spells and cooling spells.

Cao Sansui held the pocket watch in his hand, sweating slightly on his face, anxious and unbearable.

"Steady! 48 seconds!"

"It's coming again! Two! Pay attention to dispelling high temperature!"

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

This time the two came one after another. Fortunately, one didn't hit the Holy Light City Wall directly, but fell beside the light curtain, but the splashed flames still made the light curtain shaky.

"No, can't hold it, there is one more above! Cheng Shi, think of a way!"

Cheng Shi's expression sank. Just as he was about to act, he saw Song Yawen on the side quickly take out a piece of pure black cloth from his personal space.

"This is...?" Nangong was slightly suspicious.

Song Yawen's face flashed with heartache, but he still said firmly: "I'll do it this time!"

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows and recognized this thing.

Assassin's A-grade profession item, Shadow Gate of All Worlds.

This wasn't some ordinary goods. It could only be brushed out in ladder rewards above 1600 points, and the shipment rate was extremely low.

Its function after unfolding was to throw any item into the shadow plane, regardless of size, location, time, and uncontrolled.

And it was a one-time item, worth a lot of money.

This was originally the item most suitable for assassins to perform shadow shuttle. At this time, Song Yawen was willing to take it out, clearly forced to the limit.

"Not bad, little comrade Song, this thing isn't easy to brush out at 1636."

Song Yawen smiled proudly, thinking that he finally showed off once.

"Stolen."

After speaking, he jumped high, his hands and feet stuck to the inside of the light curtain like a spider hanging upside down, counting the time silently in his heart. Before the fourth meteorite fell, he agilely threw the "Shadow Gate of All Worlds" out.

This operation was very detailed, because the Holy Light City Wall blocked everything. He needed to risk his life to shuttle through the smoke-covered shadow shuttle to the outside of the light curtain, unfold the black cloth, open the shadow gate, and then instantly shuttle back.

As long as there was a millisecond difference in each step, he could be melted on the spot when he was outside.

Fortunately, Song Yawen was a qualified assassin.

In the blink of an eye, he had finished everything and sent the meteorite that was about to break the light curtain to the shadow interface.

And that "Shadow Gate of All Worlds" also dissipated.

But qualified was qualified, and it was still more than half away from 100 points.

"Hurry! Milk mother, save me, my butt is on fire!!!"

Song Yawen wailed and lay on the ground. His entire back, connected to his buttocks and thighs, was burned and melted. He stuck his two buttocks, which were scalded red, and kept moving toward the milk mother, longing to get healing.

But even if he was injured like this,

Nangong raised her hand in a daze and cast a healing spell on his backside.

Cheng Shi's smile vanished; he felt he had lost face.

What's the matter, my healing isn't good enough for you?

"Watch out! There's more coming from above. Mage, how much longer!"

The Wall of Holy Light had been up for barely a minute, yet the entire plain had turned into a sea of fire. The roaring and shaking were incessant, and the surrounding temperature was climbing higher and higher.

Seeing the terrifying meteors coming down one after another, Chen Chong truly couldn't hold on any longer this time.

"10 seconds! Everyone, get ready! 1 o'clock direction, the meteor density is lower. Once the time is up, we start the breakout!"

"Don't spread out too much, or we won't be able to confirm the casualty end-time battlefield. I repeat, do not spread out too much!"

"I hope that every one of us can survive!"

Cao Sansui was sweating slightly, clutching his pocket watch in one hand and raising the other high, ready to start the Time Battlefield at any moment.

This would be their only way to escape alive, provided they didn't loop too many times.

"3!"

"2! Everyone! Get ready!"

"1! Run!"

Chen Chong dropped the Wall of Holy Light on cue, stowed his shield and sword into his space in the blink of an eye, let out a roar, and like a madman, grabbed Nangong and Cao Sansui and charged toward the 1 o'clock direction.

Xia Wan followed closely behind, carrying the little weakling Cheng Shi on her back.

Not to mention Song Yawen; thick smoke was rising everywhere, and although flames filled the sky, there were gaps to weave through. He had vanished early on and run ahead of everyone else.

However, good luck didn't last.

Although they had seen fewer meteors in the 1 o'clock direction within the light screen, once they actually charged out a certain distance, they realized the dense meteors overhead were impossible to dodge.

A massive fireball slammed down in front of Chen Chong. He braked sharply, pulled out his shield and sword to form a greatsword, applied divine power, and swung it out.

The meteor burst on impact, but before he could advance again, another one slammed down right on top of them.

"Damn it!"

Cao Sansui's face was filled with alarm, and timing the seconds perfectly, he shouted:

"Time, rewind!"

The entire world suddenly froze, then flew backward rapidly as if a movie had been set to rewind.

The flames retracted, the meteors rose, the figures retreated, and the light screen reappeared.

Everything returned to the exact moment the Time Battlefield had opened.

"1! Run!"

The moment the light screen shattered, everyone used all their strength to run, aiming for the 1 o'clock direction.

Only Cao Sansui, gasping for air in Chen Chong's grip, screamed frantically:

"Chen Chong! Xia Wan! Switch, 3 o'clock direction! Quick!"

Believers of 【Time】 are unaffected by Time Battlefield rewinds and retain their memories; the current Cao Sansui was their eyes.

The two heard him and, without the slightest hesitation, immediately changed direction.

Cheng Shi hugged Xia Wan's neck tightly, his healing spells never ceasing as he cast them on her, his brow furrowed in thought:

"Second time."

Thinking this, he reached out and flipped the die in his palm.

2 facing up.
