Give Hope to a Dying World

Facing this scene, Lancelot didn't stop or say anything, but just watched silently from the sidelines.The [steel] in his body wants to kill Guinevia all the time, so he can understand the inner feelings of the brave man at the moment, the strong disgust and powerlessness towards himself.

Just like the legend of heroes, brave heroes have brave companions and girls who yearn for heroes. Beautiful girls are willing to give everything for heroes, and heroes will hold the girl's outstretched hand.

It’s just that different from those stories, in this story, the girl did not come together with the hero to create a happy ending, but was killed by the hero who needed power and glory, and then held the girl’s head high to enjoy the cheers of the hero.

The blade of salvation was held up by the brave, and the bright white light shone. The brave's sword cut off the head of the dragon, and the recovered power made the environment of the planet below worse.

After seeing Genivia's corpse turn into golden rain and mist rushing toward him, the divine power on the brave man began to rise slowly, and finally turned into a violent storm, sweeping the entire island.Recklessly venting and destroying, as if this would calm himself down.

At the same time when the brave man slayed the evil dragon, the faces of Athena and Gangwanhui, who had been paying attention to this direction, changed, because they felt... this hero who saved the world, what he wants to do now is not to save the world , but completely destroy it.

That suppressed emotion, that kind of anger that can be felt even if it is so far away, gave Gang Wanhui a familiar feeling, an indescribable sense of déjà vu.

ps: After thinking about it, I don’t want to make a chapter of [-] words, but [-] words is more comfortable.I feel that [-] words can't finish the story very well. This chapter is from yesterday.

Chapter 688 Chapter 690 Kusanagi Godou Retires at the Speed ​​of Light

The King of the End came down from the sky, and the location was the island country where Kusanagi Godou was stationed.

There may be an element of revenge against the island nation, or it may be that Kusanagi Godou is easier to bully and chose the youngest godslayer to warm up for the next battle.

Faced with the King of the End descending from the sky, Kusanagi Godou felt a little helpless after confirming that he was the first, but he could only bite the bullet.

He didn't blame Gang Wanhui, because he knew that fighting together would only make the result worse.Similarly, he didn't blame Athena, because Athena had already done a lot, but this God of Wisdom had a limit after all, and her scheme failed to prevent the awakening of the King of the End.

Since she could not find the sleeping place of the King of the End, Athena did a lot to prevent all this from happening, but she only delayed the awakening time.The "decisive battle" between Athena and Gangwanhui was also one of the traps. There was an idea of ​​attracting Guinevia and Lancelot to appear as bait, but unfortunately nothing was caught in this trap in the end.

And some other methods also lost their effect because of the goddess of the earth, Genivia. Although in order to counteract the influence of Athena, Genivia paid her own life for it, but in terms of the purpose of the plan, Athens Na is still a failure.

Kusanagi Godou shook his head and brought his attention back.Now that Athena and Gangwanhui are no longer around, Kusanagi Godou has the illusion that a child is leaving his parents for the first time, and he can only silently pray in his heart that Athena's preparations for him can help him.

"coming!"

Almost at the moment when Kusanagi Godou's words fell, a bolt of lightning fell from the surging dark clouds in the sky, and directly bombarded in front of the shrine where Kusanagi Godou was.

"Oh!"

The illuminated barrier was shattered the instant it came into contact, and the falling lightning crashed the torii gate in front of the shrine, causing an electric arc, and the aftermath of the impact also set off a gust of wind blowing around.

Kusanagi Godou placed his arms in front of his face to block the incoming impact and debris in the strong wind, but he didn't take his eyes off the lightning strike for a moment, and his body automatically entered the most perfect battle state.

And out of the pulsating lightning, came out the three Gods of Disobedience that made Kusanagi Godou's heart thump.A knight riding on a steed white horse, a strange man wrapped in bandages and a mask on his face, and a young man in a windbreaker in front of them, holding a platinum sharp blade tightly in his hand.

The moment he saw the three of them, Kusanagi Godou was filled with mmp.Due to the existence of the ancient covenant, I can't fight in plural on my side, but this kind of situation where one person singles out the three disobedient gods on the opposite side feels like there is no way out, and each of the three makes him nervous The presence.

Especially the young man in front of the two disobedient gods, just standing there, the surrounding temperature quickly climbed to a height that ordinary people cannot survive, and the strength of the divine power surging in his body made the grass pheasant protect him even more. Tang's pupils kept shrinking.

"No...isn't it?"

If Godslayer had a way to resign, then Kusanagi Godou would definitely think seriously about whether to resign, because he felt that he was just a farmer now, but the king suddenly appeared and gave him a sword, and then threw him into the In the end, in front of the boss, he felt like a brave man guarding the world.

Although he is just a newcomer, Kusanagi Godou has also seen many powerful Gods of Disobedience, such as the God of War, Mekar, and Athena, all belong to the highest level of Gods of Disobedience, especially those who completely retrieve themselves The mythical Athena has surpassed the rest of the highest-level Gods of Disobedience, but this young man who should be the King of the End has easily surpassed Athena's level, bringing him a strong sense of death threat.

Kusanagi Godou failed to understand the other party's specific mythology. Although Erika had given him some useful mythological stories through kissing before evacuating with the residents, the golden sword that did not move showed that he understood the mythology. Still incomplete and maybe not even real.Genivia's falsification of the myth in the past has successfully deprived Kusanagi Godou of his strongest weapon.

And when Kusanagi Godou was thinking hard about how to deal with the attack of the three recalcitrant gods, the brave man had already slowly raised the blade of salvation in his hand.

Brilliant platinum brilliance shone, illuminating the sky darkened by surging dark clouds.Under Kusanagi Godou's astonished gaze, a ray of light suddenly lit up in the distant sky above the boy.

Seeing this scene, Kusanagi Godou's sense of threat originating from death crazily issued a premonition, causing the stone slab representing power to rotate rapidly, and finally froze in a certain place.

The platinum beam of light took shape, bombarding the area where Kusanagi Godou was at with a speed no less than that of lightning.

It seemed that there was a silent destruction, and it seemed that even the sound could not catch up with the speed of destruction. Under the platinum light, the ground was shattered inch by inch until it disappeared. Trees, vegetation, and buildings all disappeared under the scorching heat.

"Boom!"

With this shrine hidden deep in the mountains as the center, the surrounding area was forcibly erased bit by bit, until the area of ​​destruction reached the boy's body, and it stopped abruptly.And the area where Kusanagi Godou was originally has disappeared, as if an abyss reaching directly to the center of the earth has replaced the original terrain.

"I was escaped..." The young man withdrew the blade of salvation, and his tone was not lost, as if it was just an insignificant matter.

"The so-called godslayers are such existences, no matter how unfavorable the environment they are in, they will always think of ways to win, and their exaggerated intuition for danger always allows them to find ways to survive in dangerous situations. "Lancelot was not surprised. If the godslayer could be killed so casually, he wouldn't be worthy of being called the godslayer.

The brave man glanced at Lancelot and said in agreement: "This is indeed commendable, they are undoubtedly qualified fighters."

"Yes, but compared to them, you who should be praised more than you, the brave man who wiped out many godslayers." Lancelot seemed to have returned to the past time, and teased the brave man, but this sentence But it touched the memory that the brave man didn't want to recall.

To be praised?The brave man who saved the world?

There was no pride on the brave man's face, but a sad and tired expression.Seeing this scene, Lancelot also knew that he had said something wrong.

After a while of silence, Lancelot spoke again: "Are you tired?"

Facing his companion's question, the hero responded with a tired smile.

Yes, the brave man who was entrusted by the gods with the mission of annihilating the demon king, the last king who holds the blade of salvation, has lost all motivation to fulfill the mission, and is only pushed to act by the ancient covenant.

This is unbelievable, because [steel] is a hero, sword god, war god, and war god. The purer and more powerful [steel] is, the stronger the belief is, and the more intense the yearning for battle is.

As the strongest [Steel], it can be said that such a tired attitude is impossible for a hero.However, it happened, and it was so strong.

Others may not be able to understand, but Lancelot as a companion understands why the strongest [Steel], which should be extremely belligerent, has fallen into such an incredible state.

That's because his belief in being a brave man has been shattered by himself.Controlled by the ancient covenant to cut off the head of his former companions, the brave man has completely lost sight of his body that greedily devoured the power of Genivia, the mission given by the irresistible gods, and those words of praise for heroes. Tired of, or rather... so hated.

The ancient covenant that originally provided power has been turned into a prison and venom, filling the brave's [steel] with its own curse, even if the blade of salvation is as bright as the sun, it cannot illuminate the dimmed heart of the brave.Watching helplessly as he cut off his companion's head, that infinitely growing hatred has now engulfed this world.

"A world like this..."

Centering on the place where the brave man was standing, the vision suddenly occurred.

The earth loses water and quickly becomes dry, and the flowers and plants on it also wither in an instant, and the tall trees also wither, and the yellow leaves fall with the wind.

Soon, the withered vegetation turned into dust in the wind, and the depleted land also began to desert.All life is dying, even the tenacious microorganisms are robbed of their vitality and turned into useless dust.

This situation is like dropping a drop of ink into clear water, and it spreads at an exaggerated speed. If no one stops it, the entire island country and even the whole world will turn into a lifeless apocalypse because of the brave man who wants to destroy the world.

And Athena, who was with Gangwanhui, suddenly showed a painful expression when the brave man squeezed the energy of the earth, and her already fair face had a sickly pale color.

Startled by the abnormality that appeared on Athena, Gang Wanhui immediately caught Athena who was falling, held her in her arms like a princess, and looked at Athena with concern.

"What's going on, what happened? Suddenly he looks like he's going to die."

Hearing Gang Wanhui's words, Athena almost spit out a mouthful of blood, gritted her teeth and said, "Can you stop cursing my concubine at this time."

Hearing Athena's talk back, Gang Wanhui relaxed a little, and if he still has the strength to talk back, he should be saved.

My own medical skills are not good, but I still have recovery tablets and high-nutrient potions, and I can still make up for it with a few more stabs.If it weren't for the eggshells, these recovery ingots in stock would have already stuck to the little angel's core, and Athena must thank the little angel for her kindness.

Seeing that Gang Wanhui was about to stab herself with a dagger, Athena immediately reached out to stop her, then covered her heart and shook her head.

"It's useless, and it will be lost immediately even if you recover. But as an immortal goddess, you don't have to worry about dying accidentally. We felt right before. I don't know why, but that guy really intends to fight with this world." Fight."

Athena recovered a little after adapting to the continuous pain, at least not giving people the feeling of dying like before, and explained to Gang Wanhui the reason for her sudden problem.

[Steel] is closely related to earth, wind, and fire. Steel is produced from the earth, and fire can temper steel, while wind can make fire more vigorous. Therefore, in the natural disasters attached to the heroes of [Steel], there are usually earthquakes and storms. , volcanic eruptions and severe drought.

And as the strongest [steel], as long as the brave is awake, he can continuously heat up the earth and ocean, and frantically capture the essence from the earth.

Eventually, the land will be completely dried up, the oceans will be evaporated, and volcanoes will erupt one after another, bringing the world into ruin.Rather than saying that the brave man who saves the world appears in the last days, it is better to say that he himself will bring about the last days.

Athena has existed in this world since the first battle of killing gods. As the mother goddess of the earth, she has already been closely connected with the earth under her feet.If it was just normal extraction, this would not affect Athena, but the brave are now permanently destroying the earth, so Athena, who is connected to the earth, cannot be spared.

"Is there no way to stop it?"

"Yes, as long as that guy is prevented from continuing to squeeze the essence of the earth, and he is not allowed to bring about the end of the world. With this guy's current mentality, it is estimated that the only way to go is to defeat him."

Athena said the answer, but saying it was the same as not saying it, because this is exactly what everyone is trying to do.

There are only two ways to prevent the brave man from triggering the end of the world. One is to let him complete the mission of annihilating all the godslayers, and then he will return to the original appearance of the blade of salvation and sleep to restore peace to the world.The other is to defeat the brave, as long as you defeat the opponent, you can naturally solve this problem.

However, with the brave man's current state of mind, it is estimated that even if all the godslayers are annihilated, they will not go dormant, but will completely destroy the world. Therefore, the only two options left are to defeat each other.

There was silence between the two, but Athena knew that this did not mean that Gang Wanhui had given up, and she could feel the firmer determination to win in Gang Wanhui's eyes.And her own life can make Gang Wanhui so nervous, Athena unexpectedly feels good.

The news of Kusanagi Godou's defeat quickly spread everywhere. Although it was just a unilateral crush that was not even a fight, Athena still saw some clues from the information.

"I have good news and bad news here, which one do you want to hear?" Athena raised both hands, each pointing a finger to Gang Wanhui, without any sense of crisis that her life was being taken away. .

"Listen to the bad first, and save the good for later."

"The bad news is that the power of the King of the End has fully recovered, that is to say, during the recovery period when our winning rate was high... Crack! It's gone~"

Athena clapped her hands together, then spread them out, vividly showing that another pile was ready to be thrown away.

I said before that the King of the Last King will wake up for a period of time to recover his own strength. After all, when he is asleep, he will inevitably encounter some emergencies that will cause his nutrition to not keep up.And this period of malnutrition of the last king is undoubtedly a period of very high winning rate of the godslayer.

And now, just like the air in Athena's hand, it disappeared with a snap.

"What about the good news?"

"The good news is that the King of the End chose to act alone, and he seems to have rejected the power of the covenant. That is to say, as long as it is not passively triggered, we don't have to worry about halfway through the fight. His strength suddenly increases. And because he rejects the power of the covenant, he My own strength has also been affected, although the attack is exaggerated, but I can definitely be much weaker than before."

As the core of the ancient covenant, the King of the End has the ability to actively trigger the ancient covenant. However, according to past records, as long as he is not facing multiple godslayers, he will not actively use the power of the covenant.After all, as a fighter, he prefers relatively fair duels.It would be a shame to use the power of the covenant even to win in a one-on-one match.

And now, because of rejecting the power of the covenant, his strength has been reduced, and the winning rate that was originally reduced due to the disappearance of the recovery period has been pulled back a lot.

"Sure enough, it's right to put the good news behind. I've recovered a lot from the shock. I have to take action. Your situation doesn't look as easy as you said. I don't want to just sign a patron saint. In a blink of an eye It's gone." Gang Wanhui carried Athena back to her study, thought for a while and took out the little angel's core and two rings, and handed them to Athena for safekeeping.

"Temporarily leave it to you for safekeeping. There is a reason why I have to come back. I can become stronger."

ps: Today's first update.

Chapter 689 Chapter 690 Because I Like It

Glancing at Gang Wanhui who turned to leave, Athena did not dissuade him.

"Contractor of the concubine, if you fail to come back alive, then the concubine will have to go to the underworld to find you."

Hearing Athena's words behind him, Gang Wanhui couldn't help showing a helpless smile.

"In order not to be revenged by the goddess of the underworld, I have to live no matter what."

After the King of the Last King defeated Kusanagi Godou in the island country, according to the news from the magicians who volunteered to perform dangerous missions, the King of the Last King's next target was the King of Swords in Italy.Regarding this, the King of Swords who had a little friendship with Kusanagi Godou was not nervous, but prepared to defeat the King of the End to help Kusanagi Godou take revenge.

However, Gang Wanhui did not intend to let the King of the End challenge him one by one, and planned to intercept the King of the End along the coast of Italy.Waiting for a rabbit can squat down to the King of the End, and there, she will get the bonus of the sea, while the King of the End cannot step on the ground to absorb energy and recover. One plus and one minus will further increase her winning rate, which is undoubtedly a good idea. home field.

After Gang Wanhui left, Athena sat in front of the desk and looked at the egg and two rings on the table in a daze. After customarily tying a bow to the little angel's core, she nodded in satisfaction.

"looks good."
