"You can't delay, you have to follow quickly. The environment of the mirage is changing rapidly, and they can still be seen now, but there will be no guarantee after a while. Osveld slapped Kevin twice with his wings and motioned for him to come up on his back.

The reason why the sky wolf is so called is because their wings are different from those of the vulture, not only as a running or gliding aid, but also because they can fly, and although the speed is not as fast as that of purebred birds such as giant eagles, it is by no means slow.

No sooner had Kevin sat down on Osvid's back than he flapped his wings and plunged down the sand dunes, with ruins and deep wells.

One of the most difficult things in the mirage is to discern the direction, where the sun is so dusty all year round that you can't see the direction of the sun, let alone expect anything to distinguish between north and south. There's not even a single iconic thing here, everything as far as the eye can see can be changed in the blink of an eye, the hills formed by the gravel can be leveled in an instant, and the once endless sandfields can be leveled and peaked in the blink of an eye.

From here, you need to be guided by a very experienced person to get to the old castle of roses, and pointing tools are indispensable.

Nick, the second-in-command of the Advance Army sent out by Osvid, was a good way to find his way through the desert, and although he didn't use it for anything when it came to finding the route to the tomb of Phael, it was much safer to have him in the desert than to have him without him.

Moreover, the commander-in-chief of the army also has a specially customized orientation instrument in the hands of the Divine Officials' Academy.

In contrast, the more dangerous ones are Kevin and Osvid. They were forced by the situation to change their routes, and neither of them was good at recognizing their way, and they didn't even have a wayfinding tool.

"I remember that normal sky wolves don't fly so slowly...... Kevin wondered, "you're not familiar with this form?" ”

Oswald: "Slow? Don't regret it when you're taken off in a while. ”

The reason for his flap of his wings was that Kevin was on his back, and this noble mount was different from ordinary vultures, first of all, he was purebred royal, and secondly, he didn't have a rein around his neck. Although Kevin unceremoniously grabbed a handful of animal hair on the back of his neck, he could still fall if he was too fast.

This is no joke, falling from here will hurt a small amount of damage, and most importantly, it is likely that you will roll two heels in the sand and never find it again.

Kevin patted his dog's head and said categorically: "Drive, full speed ahead." If you don't catch up with them before the advance army disappears, you can pack up and prepare to abdicate, we don't have anything to guide in our hands, we may not be able to get out in three or five years, and the Golden Lion Kingdom should be changed. ”

Osvid: "......"

"It's definitely not a good choice for you to be stuck here with me, after all, I'm not so picky about meat, although I do like the wolf very much, but I'm very hungry and don't think about it, it's not a thing." Kevin said again.

Osvid scoffed: "I didn't expect your self-evaluation to be quite pertinent...... Hold on! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly accelerated.

The lone tall beast that would only appear next to the gods of the old times cut a long arc in the wind and smoke. The distance between the man and the beast and the marching party in the distance was rapidly closing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the same time, however, the black wind peculiar to the desert blew without warning, rolling over the sky.

"The wind is blowing! Hurry up! Kevin tightened the long, tough fur on the back of the wolf's neck.

Osvid: "......"

He didn't mind being caught by Kevin at all, but it wasn't that way!

The Emperor, who had turned into a wolf, flapped his wings again and again, then lowered his body and swooped down on the army in front of him like an arrow from a string.

Seeing that the front paws of the wolf were almost reaching the tail of the army, the black wind had rolled from the edge of the sky to the distance in an instant, and rushed towards the army with the momentum of sweeping thousands of troops.

The soldiers in the army brought out one of them at random, all of them were strong men with iron bones, but in this vast desert and the raging wind, they were like the slightest ant colony, which could be scattered at any lift.

"Huddle! Get down! In desperation, Osvid blurted out a shouting order in the wind, which happened to be mixed with the roar of the advance commander.

As soon as the front and back echoed, almost the entire team heard this order clearly, and in the blink of an eye, they quickly gathered towards the center. Osvid swooped down on the land, then spread his wings, hiding most of the men behind them.

Kevin, who was lying on his back, didn't expect him to block the front so directly, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and sighed in his ear in a low voice: "You deserve to be the emperor—"

It was true that the latter words were scattered by the whistling wind that suddenly came up, and I didn't hear a single word.

Osvid: "......"

If he understands correctly, with Kevin's tone, it shouldn't be a bad word in the end, which makes him vomit blood - this bastard rarely has a conscience to find and praise him, and it doesn't let people listen to it completely!

With the curvature of his huge wings, he made a clever cushion for the soldiers behind him, and slightly reversed the direction of the oncoming wind.

But this could not stop the dust in the sky, and for a while, everyone seemed to be shrouded in a gray and yellow fog, and they couldn't raise their heads at all, and they couldn't see anyone else at all.

The fine grains of sand hit the face and body heavily, scraping painfully, and there was a hot numbing feeling, and then the wind that tore everyone gradually weakened, and there was a tendency to become smaller and disappear.

This is the characteristic of the mirage black wind, which comes and goes quickly.

In fact, what people walking in the mirage fear most is not the black wind itself, but the hallucination that everyone will see after the black wind passes. Although everyone knew that the scene they saw after encountering the black wind was not credible and could not be taken seriously, there were still people who were frequently attacked.

The most frightening thing is that some people's hallucinations begin with reality and end in reality, and in the end, people always can't tell whether they have come out of the hallucination, or they have always indulged in it, what is fake and what is real......

So every time a caravan or a migratory person passes through the mirage, one or two people come out crazy.

"Everyone! Everyone, don't move, grab the nearest person! When the black wind was getting stronger, Commander Wood and Deputy Commander Nick roared in the wind and ordered: "Whatever you see and hear!" Don't move! Until you are convinced that you are awake from your hallucinations and can see the way, then shake your hands to wake up the person who is holding you! ”

Kevin had just half-opened his eyes from the wind and sand, and before he could see which soldiers were around him, he was forcibly confused by the beast fur. Before he could even struggle, he was thrown to the ground by a behemoth, crushing him to the ground again in some kind of jack fashion.

"It's a catch! Not pressure! Kevin silently vomited and collapsed.

However, just like that, he still grabbed a handful of the wolf's long hair.

Osvid let out a low "hiss."

Kevin simply collapsed on the ground, closed his eyes and said, "After a while, the hallucinations will be over, and I'll almost lose my breath." ”

"Hallucinations?" A young voice followed his words, whispered a rhetorical question, and quickly chuckled, "Do you still think all this is just an illusion?" No, this era is coming to an end, you open your eyes and see...... The sun is setting. ”

Kevin opened his eyes suddenly, and he changed from lying on the ground to a standing position, covered with spiky vines and moonflowers, wrapped tightly in the wind, from his bare ankles to his neck, and he was almost out of breath.

The sharp thorns pierced the flesh around his body, and even the undulating arc of his breath would cause the spikes to scrape in his body.

He couldn't see his own appearance, but just by imagining it, he knew that he must be bloodless, and he was extremely embarrassed.

This is no longer a mirage, but the top of the sacred mountain in the age of the old gods thousands of years ago, where all the gods gathered, with one hundred and twenty-six pillars, each representing a god.

And he was nailed to the highest pillar.

He is not the Bronze Commander Kevin Fassbender now, but Fae, the god of light.

The man who had been smiling was standing under the pillar, looking up at him with his head up, as if he were contemplating a work of art of great value. He has a very similar appearance to the God of Light, but his temperament is completely different.

Even if they are face-to-face like this, it is difficult to imagine that once upon a time, when they were both children, they were exactly the same in appearance and personality.

"Now some people will say, am I another you? The ordinary version of you ......" The man looked around with a smile and sighed, "It's a pity that they can't comment at this time." ”

The god of light on the pillar sneered and coughed up a mouthful of blood. He swallowed the blood and whispered, "Merlot—"

"This name will soon be buried by me, and I will be buried with you." Merlot interrupted, "I don't need it anymore, I don't need to distinguish you by name. There will be only one god in the new era, and no one will be qualified to give me a name. ”

The child who once held the corner of Theenis's cloak has become what it is now over the years, and its meek and shy gaze has quietly precipitated the silent madness when the gods have not noticed.

When Tenis taught him how to paint and sculp, he carved tombstones for the gods. When the gods and gods gave him blessings and powers, he used them in turn to restrain the gods. At the beginning, the three main gods did not give him a godhead, so he reached out and grabbed it himself.

Every time you kill a deity, you inherit his godhead. So, the gods ushered in the final twilight.

By the time the sun went down, Phae became the last god of the old era.

Where Merlot pointed his finger, the souls of countless gods, wrapped in a grand flame-like light, fell from the highest holy mountain in a golden-red light.

But Phae is about to be unable to hold on, inheriting the godhead of one hundred and twenty-five gods, Merlot is already the highest existence, even Phae, who was born for light and fighting, cannot be his opponent, so he was nailed to the god pillar.

"Actually, I miss the days when I was a child, and the shade of the trees of the sacred lake of Ana, was my favorite place to stay......" Merlot lowered her eyes and whispered to herself, then looked up and laughed to herself, and said nonchalantly, "You see, even now, I still look up to you." So rest assured, I will not erase your existence. Isn't it okay that the people of the Hereafter will know about you, and praise you, and look to you as I do? ”

He paused, and then said, "In exchange, you can give me one last gift......

The God of Light has the deity of the God of War, so he seems to be more difficult to approach than the other gods, and he is also more powerful than the others. And what Merlot wants most is his godhead, a symbol of eternal hope and courage.

It's ironic......

The god of light, who was nailed to the pillar, always had a mocking smile on his face.

"You can still laugh?" Merlot frowned, his voice was as soft and slow as ever, not at all in the same tone as Falla, it sounded like an inexplicable sense of madness.

The God of Light on the Divine Pillar shook his head and said in a low voice, "Do you know why you didn't give you a godhead in the first place? ”

This is the question that has plagued Merlot for nearly a thousand years, and it is also the problem that he has been trapped in for a long time, and it is also the problem that slowly ferments and causes him to eventually become twisted and crazy. Unfortunately, the gods didn't think of this, and when they finally understood it, they couldn't answer it anymore.

Merlot's face changed: "Why?!" ”

The god of light lowered his eyes and said, "Because ......"

His blood was about to soak the entire long vine Yueji, and his voice was so low that it was almost a whisper, and it became indistinct because of the relationship between the choking of blood foam from time to time.

Merlot stepped into the void and walked in front of the god of light, and the distance was so close that Fae's voice finally became clearer.

"Because ......"

At the same time as the two words fell, Fae'er's body suddenly flashed with golden light, turning into countless knife tips, breaking the entangled long vine Yueji violently, and the sharp blade pierced the flowers and leaves, piercing Merlot's heart.

Merlot's face tightened, and he suddenly flashed dozens of meters, avoiding those sharp blades. And the bloodied God of Light turned into the appearance of a godhead archetype immortal bird at that moment, with huge wings and scorching flames, soaring straight into the sky, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The Immortal Bird eventually landed on the top of the hill where the Temple of Light was located, but the Temple of Light had been completely destroyed by Merlot. Phae landed back in human form, the flames of her wings turning into a golden longbow in her hand.

He stood alone on the top of the mountain with a longbow in his hand, and the once beautiful world suddenly fell silent and became silent, as if he were the only one left. The great setting sun slowly sank behind him, but the fallen gods were long gone......

Killing a god would inherit his godhead, and he didn't want Merlot to inherit hope and courage.

So he lowered his eyes and laughed, and then the golden-red sun-like divine bird broke free from his body, and was crushed by his own hands with his last strength, scattered into countless points of light floating around him, and finally sank into thousands of acres of dirt and disappeared.

The last god of the old era self-destructs his godhead and descends into darkness as the sun finally sets.
