The seventeenth bombardment of Super Thor's hammer shattered the chest that the rock princess had just repaired, and the demigod-level elemental creature that had lost both arms was crushed to the ground.

Another wave of adventurers descended on his upper body in stealth transports, covering the technician's hacked chest and head to the core, and this time he couldn't get up again.

He is still alive, and he is still extremely powerful, but he has become a pivotal core bound by the red web ethereal spirits, and can no longer gather the power of the earth.

He will be the most valuable object of study since the establishment of the Ethereal Commune, and the Ethereal Scientists will experiment in the laboratory. If he can purify the purgatory will and let him accept the power of the red web, perhaps he will transform into a demigod elemental creature who serves the people.

Of course, this is only an ideal, and as the ultimate manifestation of the will of purgatory in the power of the earth element, it is unlikely that this goal will be fully achieved, but at least it is a direction worth working towards.

When the Rock Princess fell, not only the mortals of the hell plane, but even the mortals of the main plane no longer paid attention to him.

The great chasm was trembling, the river of blood was boiling, and the far side belonged to the abyss, the sky was rolling, and the glow was rushing.

The devil is unwilling to let the rock princess fail, and he has to make a big move!

Outside the fort, in the front-line headquarters, looking at the images sent back by the reconnaissance plane, Otto, Kane, and Skeletron all gasped at the same time. Compared to the other two dead people, the living Kane still felt his hair stand on end, and the coldness poured into the depths of his soul.

"What the hell is this...... I know, it's ......."

Kane Art was also shouting, but his tone was no longer the frivolous and wild he used to be, and became extremely solemn.

He finally remembered: "It's the King of Black Iron!"

Viscous black liquor overflowed from the river of blood, streaked with dark red light and emitted a thick smoke.

The black liquor began to condense after the river of blood, and the high walls, prisms, and fortresses took shape little by little, and although they were only a very small corner, it could be seen that they would eventually become a fortress. The Black Iron Fortress owned by the Demon Lords before, even the Fortress of Tikenham, was nothing more than a small cottage compared to it.

In the headquarters, the perspective of this black iron fortress is rapidly taking shape, and it is constantly flickering, correcting in real time according to the newly condensed parts.

The head of a mechanical girl wearing a black and red headband reports next to the perspective view: "The estimated outline is an elongated hexagonal prism, twelve kilometers long and nine kilometers wide, with an outer wall one hundred meters high and a central castle two hundred meters high. ”

"The material is all activated black iron, which has a certain toughness. The material properties are weaker than that of Mithril, and the Dwarven Gunpowder weapon cannot deal effective damage. ”

"The internal structure is similar to that of the Rock Princess, both with a distributed pivot network. But it's only used for action and form transformation, and it doesn't lose control after being hacked like the Rock Princess. ”

Skeletron came to his senses when he heard this: "This thing...... It's alive!?"

Kane brought out the information he had just received from Art: "The King of Black Iron is a demigod-level constructor naturally formed after Black Iron was impregnated with the will of the Abyss, and it is indeed alive. ”

"His real use is to carry legion-level devil portals, directly break through enemy defenses, rush into the hinterland, and release several legions at once. ”

"This should be the method of pressing the bottom of the box by the demon lords of the abyss, except for the great devil. ”

Otto was also stunned and said, "This guy ...... Moving?"

Without Kane's answer, more details of the Black Iron King had already been revealed on the light curtain. The walls of the high wall are covered with jagged sharp corners, and a huge structure that looks like a slope protrudes from the wall, and I don't know if it is a wheel or what kind of structure is dragging the formed part outward, and it looks like a steel fortress has been pulled out of the river of blood, and the scene is extremely shocking.

The front end of the fortress was still wriggling, and the black iron spikes tens of meters thick were constantly stretching until they turned into giant spears hundreds of meters long.

Although the devils are cunning and sinister individually, the whole that gathers together has always been like this, power is supreme, strict and orderly.

If you compare it from the perspective of spectacle, the King of Black Iron that the devils moved out completely overwhelmed mortals.

Unfortunately, just as the gods in the outer planes had to grow larger when they increased their power, in this day and age, the law that size equals strength no longer applies.

The ethereal assistant at command reported: "Distance, seven hundred and twenty kilometers, estimated speed of twenty kilometers per hour. Maneuver along the side of the abyss of the Great Rift to Fort Gui, and reach the ...... in thirty-six hours"

Art couldn't bear it anymore and shouted to Kane: "If you don't stop him, it won't be the devils he pretends to be, but the millions of devils behind the legion's portal!

Kane ignored him and asked the Ethereal, "What is the range of Thor's hammer?" I remember that it can hit so far, of course, the accuracy is difficult to guarantee, but even if I am lucky, after so much time, I don't believe that I can't break the legion portal inside him." ”

Otto also said: "This material cannot carry aerial bombs, and air supremacy must be seized." ”

Skeletron wanted to say something, and his jaw parted, but he couldn't think of what his little Death Knight could do, so he had to close it again.

The scene on the light curtain changed again, the dark clouds of the Blood River Fjord, where the devil was, were rising, and it was an uncountable number of flying units rising into the air.

Mortals and demons actually thought together......

"After Thor's hammer fires, the devil will definitely attack the position from both sides of the open space", Otto said to Skeletron, "the position on the left flank will be handed over to Your Majesty." ”

Skeletron snorted reservedly, and went out impatiently: "I'll go and summon my subordinates immediately!"

Seeing Skeletron leave, Kane said casually: "This guy, not only is he not a living person, but he is not even very sure who he is, how can he be so concerned about fighting demons and devils." ”

As soon as the words came out, he realized that something was wrong, and quickly apologized: "Eh, I'm not discriminating against ......"

Otto shook his head: "Don't take it personally, Skeletron and I are indeed dead, speaking of this ......"

The dark stone on his face suddenly floated, and in an instant, his face changed from a living person to a skeleton, and two dark gold soul fires swam in his eye sockets, making Kane gasp as if he had a toothache.

"This is who we really are, and we have always been the way we were when we were alive, just taking care of you living people. ”

The soul fire stained Otto's skull with a layer of golden light, and his voice was a little softer than before, sounding like the sound of ironwood colliding: "I believe you don't belong to the kind of people who still need to be taken care of. ”

Kane nodded solemnly, of course he wouldn't see Otto as a comrade and comrade-in-arms just because Otto's appearance had changed.

Otto said, "What you just said is also something that we Styx Heroes have been thinking about. ”

Mins, who was next to her, giggled, and her pretty face had lost its flesh and turned into a small skull, and she jumped on the table and sat down, listening to Otto talk to Kane.

At the same time, several Thor's hammers were fired again, this time targeting the Black Iron King, which was taking shape more than seven hundred kilometers away, and the shells were expected to fly for two minutes.

"We Styx Heroes are not Her Majesty's attendants, but only use her Stygian Stone to protect the souls of the dead, and at the same time are temporarily assigned by her. ”

"There is a group of Styx Heroes who agree with Her Majesty Alisanne's creed and are willing to work to bring the Styx through purgatory and the abyss until the souls of the dead are gone. ”

"I and the other group of Heroic Spirits are thinking about life and death......"

Otto said this, Kane's heart jumped.

He knew very well what the concept of life and death adhered to by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Fei was, life was the most important, and living people were the fundamental.

It seemed that Otto had something else in mind, and he was a little nervous for a moment.

"I don't want to overturn our current view of life and death, life is of course the most important, and only the living can make the world more complete and progressive. ”

Otto continued: "But I think there are some exceptions that have to be seriously considered. ”

"The cycle of life in Finn's world is life, death, and destruction, and it is not the body that runs through this cycle, but the soul. ”

Kane nodded in agreement, and even in his heart, Art kept humming.

Their pair is a living example, no matter how the body changes, as long as the soul keeps itself, it is Kane and Kane Art in the end.

Otto continued: "This also means that the soul, whether living or dead, as long as it does not dissipate, is still a natural, normal existence, but in a different state. ”

"The soul does not have a dissipated dead person, it can no longer have the body and feelings of a living person, but it still has memories, emotions, wisdom, and faith, which is also the foundation of the soul. ”

"Beings like me and Mins are not alone, if the Crimson believers are strong-willed and pious, they can completely rely on the belief of cosmopolitan Christianity to resist the erosion of the soul by the power of death and join the ranks of the Crimson Heroic Spirits. ”

"In the past few years, because the Central Committee has adhered to the existing concept of life and death, many comrades and comrades-in-arms who still want to continue to fight have been annihilated, which is a huge loss for the revolution and is also against their personal will. ”

"The total number of our Crimson Spirits has never exceeded 10,000, and that's why it's for this reason. Many of the Heroic Spirits were quietly ...... by us from Skeletron smuggled over, from the remnant soul to the heroic spirit little by little. ”

The dark golden light in Otto's eyes became brighter, and his words were extraordinarily powerful: "Mins and I, there are still many Crimson Heroes, and the real idea is to open up a kingdom belonging to the Crimson Spirits in hell. The thought of this goal makes us feel like our souls are burning, and I am sure that this is the path I am pursuing. ”

Kane's breathing was a little sluggish: "Have you told Her Majesty Alisanne and the cardinal arch about these thoughts?"

Otto nodded: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to tell you at this time." ”

"Your Majesty Alishan...... You know, she's still a kid, and she doesn't have any ideas about these things. What the cardinal means is that let us explore for ourselves, but without deviating from the fundamental goal of serving the people and achieving the great harmony. ”

Kane breathed a sigh of relief, Otto is not overturning the Fei Gong's view of life and death, but expanding, but even so, it is extremely subversive.

Otto wants to create a country of death for the Fei Gong and even the professionals of the Red Network. Even if mortals who believe in Datongism die, they will continue to exist in the realm of the dead as a crimson heroic spirit.

Otto added: "Of course, it has to be voluntary. Only by volunteering can we continue to grow in this state and continue to contribute to the cause of Datongism. ”

Kane's eyes wandered, falling into reverie, and after a while, he nodded affirmatively: "Just say my words, if I really can't be saved, I hope to continue like you...... There are so many things I want to do. ”

Art shouted, "Don't you want to leave me!

Still ignoring him, Kane smiled again: "But our medical technology is becoming more and more developed, and we have really built the Crimson Death Country, and the population will not prosper." ”

Otto didn't care: "The liberated demons and demons are actually no different from us in nature, and there is a whole hell waiting for us to liberate, even if we liberate hell......"

The dark gold soul fire flashed, and Otto lowered his voice: "Isn't there still the underworld?"

Kane coughed and didn't speak, only a heartfelt look of approval.

At this time, the cannonballs of Thor's hammer finally flew to the target, and the iron king's steel walls exploded with patches of smoke and dust, mixed with sparks like ceremonial flowers. Several steel spikes were blown off, and after the smoke and dust dissipated, several large pits with a diameter of more than ten meters could be seen on the high wall, and some of the potholes even penetrated the high wall.

The two of them watched this scene and laughed in relief at the same time.

Kane asked again, "Why did you remember to say this? It felt sudden." ”

Otto said: "I am already at the peak of the legend, don't be surprised, my current strength is reflected in the manipulation of the Stygian Stone, as well as the power to fight death, and these things are not directly related to the strength of the strength." ”

Otto's tone didn't fluctuate, but it made violent waves in Kane's heart.

"I feel that such a path will lead me into the realm of the demigods, and I can even see the phantom of the god in the distance of the road. ”

Kane's mouth opened wide, and at this moment he and Art were one.

Otto is seeing ...... The path of the Crimson Reaper?

The dark gold soul fire in Otto's eyes burned so much that Kane couldn't even look at it directly: "Today is the decisive battle, the living can retreat, and we dead people will never retreat." ”

"We are fighting not only for the liberation of souls, but also for our homeland!"
