Time is passing like sand in an hourglass.

Seth and Mephistopheles both had beads of sweat on their faces, not only because the pain from their physical trauma was pulling their nerves, but also because they were now like gladiators in the ancient Roman arena, and they all regarded killing each other as their only purpose.

Seth was slowly adjusting his breathing, he knew very well that the next attack had to be fatal, and if he couldn't stabilize himself as soon as possible, then his attack would definitely show flaws as before.

He straightened up, compressing the air out of his lungs in an effort to balance his breathing. Even though the wound on his upper abdomen pierced by Satan's sword was painful with every exhalation, he could no longer care about it.

"Looks like I'm a little faster than you. He looked at Mephistopheles, who was still on his knees, and smiled wryly, "You can't stand up anymore, can you?"

"Whew—whew—" Mephistopheles' breathing was unusually rapid. "Don't joke around there. He used his sword as a crutch to support his body and stood up. "How could I be so easily defeated by a guy like you, by a human like you. ”

"That's what I want. Seth only clenched the dagger in his hand and took a step forward. "Come, then, liberate, Divine Word, Divine Concealment!" The golden Divine Word on his arm instantly turned blue, and his body disappeared again in the air.

"Another one that will use liberation. Mephistopheles had an inscrutable smile on her face, "Just let me meet you." ”

The air around is so quiet that people can't breathe, but there is a faint murderous intent in the silence.

Seth, who had adjusted his breathing, cautiously approached Mephistopheles in a state of concealment, and Mephistopheles was now in a very disadvantageous situation, Seth who activated the Divine Word and Divine Concealment could make the enemy's sense of hearing, sight and smell completely useless, and his own breath was completely hidden, and he was now seriously injured, and the injury was bound to affect his observation and counterattack.

Where will it come from? Mephistopheles clenched the sword of Satan in her hand. Damn, my strength hasn't recovered yet, and even if I get replenishment, my current ability still can't be used?

But I can still win, he thought to himself. As long as one of his attacks misses, I can seize that moment and launch a counterattack, and I will be the one who wins.

Seth was also aware of the risks of attacking, and Mephistopheles, known for his cunning, could not sit still, and if he caught the flaw like he did last time, he would be dead.

But there's no way to run away from it, isn't it? Seth had moved behind Mephistopheles by this point, but he didn't notice it. All I want to do is here, here, so that people can smile again and annihilate evil.

Like an arrow off the string, Seth attacked. This time his target is Mephistopheles' defenseless heart, and only if this blow can succeed, it can pierce his heart, and even Satan himself will not be able to save him at that time.

Please, you have to make it!" Seth cried out in his heart, but Mephistopheles remained unmoved. He almost wanted to shout loudly, but just as the dagger was about to plunge into Mephistopheles's body, he jerked around and opened his tightly clenched left hand, and spilled a large pool of unknown liquid at Seth.

Seth hurriedly retreated to dodge, but it was too late, and the unknown liquid had already spilled onto his body, revealing his true form in an instant.

"I'm the one who wins. Mephistopheles yelled, raising the sword of Satan in his hand and stabbing Seth in the chest. "You're careless, human! ”

Only then did Seth realize that Mephistopheles was bleeding purple-red blood from his left hand, so he understood, did this demon tear all his palms apart in order to win me?

Mephistopheles lifted his sword and pinned Seth to the ground, Seth's grip on the dagger loosened, and the holy word on his right arm dissipated.

"Ahem-" blood flowed from the corner of Seth's mouth, "I didn't expect you to use your own blood, and you would even tear all the muscles in your hands." ”

"As long as I can win, I don't care what means I use. Mephistopheles stuck out his tongue and licked the wound on his left hand, "I know you're going to attack from my weakest point, and my back with a lack of vision is undoubtedly a good place, so that's why I made this move, but I won, and that's enough!haha, haha......" He actually covered his face with his hand and laughed wildly.

"In the end, everything was very unclear. Seth splattered blood with every word he spoke.

"No kidding!" Mephistopheles' face twisted. "You lose, I'm the one who wins, how can a lowly and insignificant creature like a human being defeat us. ”

"Not necessarily. Mephistopheles suddenly heard a voice behind him, he turned to look but it was too late, the dagger that was originally discarded by Seth appeared in front of him out of thin air, he subconsciously raised his sword to defend, but it was too late, and the dagger pierced his heart accurately.

"Why, how!?" Mephistopheles looked at the handle of the dagger on her chest in disbelief, "You can't move at all, why would?"

Seth barely squeezed out an ugly smile on his face: "This is the second ability of the Divine Word Hidden after liberation, the Divine Word Divine Remnant, because of this ability, I can create a completely imperceptible form in a short period of time, so it is equivalent to my two attacks!"

Mephistopheles supported his body with his hands on the ground, "I would lose to such a low-level species, I am not reconciled, how can I be willing?" he raised his head to the sky and roared, but his eyes suddenly darkened, and then he fell straight down.

"I won!" Seth let out a long sigh of relief, he could now feel his consciousness slowly blurring, meaning he had little left to live.

But my death is not meaningless, is it? He thought, I have never done anything earth-shattering in my life, I am an ordinary person who says good and bad and is not bad, maybe this is the last favor of the god of fate, so that I can die worthwhile.

At this moment, the gem on the hilt of the Satan Sword in Mephistopheles' hand emitted a dazzling dark purple light, and as the light intensified, Mephistopheles's eyes gradually brightened, and the wounds on his body were healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Less than ten seconds later, Mephistopheles, who had been presumed dead, stood up in front of Seth again.

"Hey, aren't you dead?" asked Lucifer, who had been watching the battle, with a shocked look on his face.

"Ah, mine is indeed dead. The resurrected Mephistopheles replied, "But it seems that Lord Satan doesn't want me to die like this, so he pulled me back!"

Seth's eyes were almost blind, but he could still vaguely make out that the person who spoke was Mephistopheles. "Why didn't you die, why did you come back to life? You ...... Ahem—" His roar was interrupted by blood gushing from his mouth.

"Thanks to you, I have truly seen the greatness of Lord Satan. Mephistopheles walked slowly over to Seth. "It's really sad, it took so much effort, and even lost his own life, but the goal was not achieved, this kind of failure is not pleasant, right?"

"Shut up!" Seth struggled to his feet, spitting a mouthful of blood in his face.

"It's not elegant at all. Mephistopheles calmly wiped the blood from her face, "You look miserable like this, but I'm a compassionate person, so let me give you a ride." ”

He held out a finger and pointed at Seth, "If we can, maybe we'll see you again in hell, wandering in endless despair and fear, eternal nightmare." ”

He whispered the last sentence, Seth's originally strong body suddenly fell limply, blood oozed from the corners of his eyes, and the pupils of his eyes also dilated for a moment, just like that, Seth finally walked the last road of his life.

At the same time, the Nautilus.

Jon sat in the seat that had belonged to Captain Seth, smoking cigarette after cigarette, his hands shaking so much that he almost burned himself several times when he lit the fire. In front of him, the screen was played with the image of Seth and Mephistopheles at war.

"I see you've done your job!" Jon spat out a smoke ring in the air. "You didn't plan to come back alive, did you? and said you were going to invite me to drink, what a hopeless liar. ”

Back in time, Seth was just about to leave when he suddenly asked Jon if he had a pinhole monitor.

"What do you want that thing for?" Jon asked him.

"Of course I have my own use, you just need to find it. Seth replied.

What a fool, Jon thought back to the look on Seth's face, did he have expected it, and he had decided to bring a pinhole monitor to record all the information?

"Squeak" The door to the captain's cabin was pushed open, and the herald who came in asked Jon, "Chief of Staff, what are we going to do now, where are we going without Captain Seth?"

"What do you want to do?"

"We want revenge, please allow us to ambush here, we want revenge, even if we all die here, we have no regrets. ”

"No, I don't agree. Jon whispered.

"Why!?" the herald's voice trembled with anger and incomprehension. "Isn't Captain Seth your brother, he has a bad temper at times, but he thinks of us at all times, like our brother. He is dead in the hands of the devil, why can't we go to take revenge!?"

"Listen to me, sailor. Jon snuffed out the cigarette with his fingers, his tone still flat. "I know him better than any of you, I know what he really wants us to do, we can't live up to his sacrifice, and we pass on the flame of hope. ”

The Nautilus started again, heading out to sea far. Only this time, it is no longer just a war machine made of steel, but like Noah's Ark in the end of the world, it sets sail with hope.
