Chapter 37: The Dance of Light and Darkness (2)
"As long as there is hope, those criminals who slaughtered the City of the End will definitely be punished as they deserve!"
β¦β¦
In the world of ice and snow, the figure of Dilnaga stood coldly, and the cold voice echoed around it, hoarse and sharp like a cold ghost.
"Punishment?" Lin Sheng's heroic eyebrows furrowed fiercely, and he said puzzledly, "Could it be that you have been stubborn for thousands of years, just for the city that has long been destroyed?"
"Is it worth it?" He finally asked.
"There's nothing worth it." The girl took a deep breath and shook her head, "The City of the End is the hometown of Lord Hades, as well as my brother and me, and now our home is gone, and all those who survived that disaster have died at the hands of Fuyu. β
"If it weren't for the Hades who risked his life to save us, maybe what you see now is just the remains of the beast below that have been corrupted into bones." Dilnaga looked at him with expressionless eyes, and the keel beneath him was gradually blown apart by the cold wind.
"The destruction of the City of Final Rin was just an accident, if Yuan Yu didn't open the 'Road to the Gods' without permission, then how could Fu Yu kill him?" Lin Sheng smiled coldly. Strangely, this smile only appeared on the half of his face with black pupils, and the other half of his golden pupils were full of sadness.
"You won't understand, Changsheng." Dilnaga shook his head, "You were born to stand at the top of this world, maybe for you, there is nothing wrong with the prince's actions, he just did his duty and wiped out all the existences that could threaten you." After all, Hades has always been an outlier to you, and one more king means you have to get a piece of the pie. The territory left behind by Emperor Shen is only so large, and the rise of the Hades King will definitely steal jobs from your eyes. What's more......" She paused suddenly, and then said with a sneer, "What's more, you claim to be light, and we, moths crawling out of the darkness, your 'light', will only ...... us Burned to ashes. β
"So you're planning to overthrow the kings?" Lin Sheng's brows furrowed fiercely.
"Nope." Dilnaga shook her head, "It's not a struggle for power, it's a ...... Grand revenge! After saying that, she raised her right hand coldly, and then fell high.
"Whewββ!" The giant dragon hovering in the sky, but at this moment, as if receiving some command, its huge body swooped down. In the huge, hideous dragon's mouth, countless cold ice began to shatter and rush. Then an endless stream of blue light condensed in its mouth and erupted.
"Boom!" The extremely cold dragon breath froze the air, and finally fell fiercely towards Lin Sheng's side. For a moment, Lin Sheng felt as if he was locked by something, and an illusion arose in his heart that no matter how he dodged, he couldn't avoid the ice-blue dragon breath.
"White Night: The King's Killing!"
In an instant, majestic power suddenly gushed out of his body, and the comfort brought by the power seemed to reach his limbs and bones in an instant. This feeling of rebirth is like walking dozens of kilometers in the desert, and finally when he is about to give up hungry and thirsty, he quietly finds a lush oasis.
"White Night: The King's Killing!"
This is Lin Sheng's last "Soul Release" spiritual skill, and before his body fully recovers, he doesn't know if he will be able to withstand Dil Naga's full force.
Five light spears flew out from the keel wreckage in the distance, and finally quickly turned into five golden rays of light and merged into the vicissitudes.
Lin Sheng stood up from the ground against Ling Yuan's coercion, and looked up at the cold current that was spitting down. Leaning forward slightly, Cangming made a crisp long sound in his hand.
"Although I hate to admit it, there are some aspects that Yuan Yu does better than me, such as ...... The sword he forged. β
He jumped high from the ground, and the moment the dragon's breath reached the ground, he successfully dodged Ling Yuan's attack through the instantaneous force, and then at the moment when the dragon's breath began to freeze, he exerted his strength again, and his legs stepped on the icicles formed by the cold current all the way up. A pale golden glow emerged from behind his armor, waving gently like a pair of massive wings. Then faster and faster, faster and faster, and finally took Lin Sheng and gradually flew up from the icicle.
"Yuanyu, I don't want to interfere in the grievances between you and Fuyou, but you took it upon yourself to openly kill the other twelve princes who were also the thirty-two monarchs, in public and private, this account, no matter what, I will find you to settle the account!"
Almost in an instant, Lin Sheng's figure finally approached the dragon's head. The massive dragon's mouth opened wide in front of him, and the cold snap stimulated the soles of his feet. At this moment, it was as if he was stepping on a steel plate of indoors hundreds of degrees below zero, and the edges and corners of the metal were enough to cut the soles of his feet.
In an instant, Lin Sheng's lightning force, and the pitch-black Cangming was suddenly inserted into the dragon's breath by him. The dragon's breath was split in half, starting where it had been severed and extending in front of the dragon.
It's here.
With a "poof", the spear pierced the dragon's skull, and then exited its skull again. After a moment of silence, the huge ice dragon's body raised its head and let out a wail, and the dragon head stretched forward with all its might, and golden, waterfall-like blood spilled from its skull, and the huge body slowly fell into the ice because of its weightlessness.
And just after killing the ice dragon, Lin Sheng's figure did not stop. He continued to wave his wings, and the golden membranous wings carried him high into the air. Then, for a brief moment in the air, the body flipped over, the spear pointed downward, and the sharp tip of the spear pointed at the girl.
"Goodbye......" he said. The beast's body began to fall with gravity, and the cold air whistled hoarsely in the friction of metal.
In mid-air, Dil Naga looked at the figure that fell like a meteor with some distraction, and a smile suddenly appeared on her delicate face inexplicably.
It was a gentle and elegant smile, like one of the boundless snowflakes, pale and yet unusually weak. It seems that if the wind blows gently, this beauty may wither at any time.
Lin Sheng didn't know why she made such a strange smile to herself, but there was not much time left for him to think about it anymore. The spear whizzed by, eventually piercing her body at nearly the speed of light per second.
"Got you......" the girl smiled softly, wrapped her arms around his body, and fell together.
"Boom", after the dust in the sky. "Lin Sheng" looked at the girl who was lying in a pool of blood in a daze, and there was some disbelief in her golden eyes.
"Why don't you hide?" He asked. Trembling hands tried to pull out the hole and wear the girl's vicissitudes.
But the girl didn't answer him, but coughed up a mouthful of blood violently, blocking his movements.
"Why don't you hide!" Lin Sheng's eyes were a little split, and anger occupied his heart almost instantly.
He didn't know why he was so angry, but when he saw the girl standing stupidly in place and taking his attack, he felt a surge of anger in his heart.
"Because of this...... I'm going to catch you......" Dilnaga smiled at him sadly, there was so much tenderness in the depths of his pupils. She was like a withering flower, as if she could die at any moment.
"Why...... Why? Why! Lin Sheng knelt down in front of the girl sadly, his hands pounding the ground frantically with bony protrusions. Tears filled his eyes for a moment, and he didn't know why he was crying, or why he was so sad. It's just that he felt that after seeing the girl's gradually pale face, his heart was inexplicably wonderful...... A touch of sadness welled up.
It's like something important is leaving him because of him. He suddenly felt that he might be wrong, but wasn't it what they were supposed to do as gods to kill a king? What's wrong with him?
Because of sympathy? Because you think this girl is pitiful?
He didn't know. His confused memories had made him unable to distinguish his identity, and he didn't know if he was Lin Sheng, a student of Atlantis, or the immortal that the boy said in his mind. He only felt that he should have done something wrong, something wrong that he would regret for the rest of his life.
The girl, the girl who felt so familiar to him and stranger to him. He seems to have seen it somewhere, but where?
He just couldn't remember.
In Atlantis, in the Lost Lands? Or ...... Is it in that shattered memory?
"Don't blame yourself." The girl smiled softly, touched the side of his face with both hands, and comforted, "There should be no feelings in the dark heart, your responsibility is to become strong, and when you are strong enough to fight all enemies one day, the truth of fate will surely appear in front of your eyes." Since 'you' have chosen to erase your memories, he has long expected the day to come. Changsheng, you are Lin Sheng's 'dark', and your duty is to protect his growth. Only when the 'light' grows enough to contain the 'darkness', immortality ...... will be true immortality. β
"But I'm ...... Who is it?" Lin Sheng looked down at her in a deranged manner, and all his memories suddenly drifted away in his mind. In the end, all that remained was the fragments, falling like tidbits.
"Immortal, you remember, in this world, there is no one who exists for no reason. Everyone will have their own reason for living, and so will you. The girl said, "You and Lin Sheng." They are Lin Changsheng's 'light' and 'dark', because you inherit Lin Changsheng's power, so you have to be stronger than Lin Sheng. β
"But with great power comes great responsibility." Ming was born weak, so in order to prevent him from dying prematurely, Ming bore all the pain of Ming. The girl trembled and looked at him tenderly, "All these years...... Thank you for your hard work. It is to take care of 'Ming', and to distinguish those memories that have been erased by oneself. β
"Who are you?" Lin Sheng raised his head in a daze, puzzled.
"I'm ......," the girl smiled, her mind as if she had returned to a thousand years ago, "I'm the ...... Someone who has been waiting for you. β
"Then 'I' must be very important to you, right? I used to be. Lin Sheng asked again.
"Yes, it's very important......," she said, but the other end of her voice was getting weaker and weaker, like a flower that had come to an end, and the next second it would dissipate into the world.
"Don't let that kid know, okay?"
"You mean Lin Sheng?"
"Hmm."
"Don't worry, I'll erase this memory of him, and he'll only feel like he's asleep when he wakes up. Everything will also go back to before he enters the Bronze Gate, where he slays the Dragon King and overfulfills the task given to him by the Academy. Finally he seemed to say to himself, "He's still the Atlantean student." β
"I hope so......" the girl nodded.
"One last thing......" Dilnaga coughed up a mouthful of blood with difficulty, and continued, "Lord Hades has appeared, and now, like you, he has lost his original memory. I don't know where he woke up, but my brother will go to him when he wakes up. You go to the East...... went to the east to look for Chen Geng, and Chen Geng knew where the Hades King was...... Go to the East, the East is the ...... of Lord Hades"
"Okay, don't say it, it's enough......" Lin Sheng silently hugged her in his arms, wanting to keep her last trace of warmth. But Cangming has pierced her heart, and the girl's life is slowly passing away.
The girl in front of him was about to die, and just now, he was sentenced to death by himself.
"Don't be upset...... We're going to die...... It's just forgotten...... Actually, I'm very happy...... Wake up from an endless slumber...... When I opened my eyes, I saw the first person...... It could be you. Saying that, she looked up weakly and smiled bitterly, "If it weren't for the cycle of fate...... How could we be so displaced......"
"Goodbye, Changsheng...... I hope we still have a chance to ......"
"Goodbye ......"
At last the last glimmer of light in her eyes was extinguished, and her pale body fell down like a light snow, lying naked in the world. White snow and ice covered the soles of her feet, eventually spilling over her back and long hair, weaving into a blood-white veil.
The old mourning songs quietly arose at some point, and the mournful wind music and violin played desperately in the wind. It was like a grand funeral, and the snow-white sand was covered with red flowers.
If it is said that a person's death is because of his fate, then can it be said that the fate of a person's life is to wait for death?
"Ahββ!h Under the dim night sky, a huge dragon bone cross suddenly rose into the sky, and the dazzling blue light illuminated the whole world. Under the skeleton, "Lin Sheng" raised his head and wailed in pain, and his heart-rending cry resounded throughout the sea world.
