Chapter 40: Commitment and Sacrifice
Fighting desperately so far, the scene in front of me is a desperate situation.
"Damn! Fight until now, this is the ending! β
The two old gods blocked everyone one after the other, and the line between life and death was helpless.
Even though humans have already started hunting the old gods, the old gods that have fallen by the main god level (according to the classification, the fourth level of divine power or above) are definitely the prey outside the range.
Now human beings can only hunt third-rate gods like Pan, who are not ranked in their own god system, and in the face of the old gods of the first level, there is no precedent for successful hunting.
This is not only the reason for the disproportionate investment and income, but the relationship between the main gods of each god system is often extremely complicated, and it affects the whole body at one touch, for example, most of the main gods of the Olympus god system are brothers and sisters, uncles and uncles, and the four horsemen of Doom are basically four brothers and sisters, and hunting an old god to provoke a family, the odds of winning are too low.
Unlike the nameless clan who only has the domain of the gods and the soul of the gods, he is a nouveau riche with unlimited divine power, with the name of a god, but his frontal combat power is worse than that of the battle-hardened evil god, and he does not have the infinite regeneration ability that the old god hallmarked, and he has long been easily wiped out by Luna.
The Doomsday God is the existence of the four main gods, the equivalent of the twelve main gods of Olympus, and in their information, the advice of the Association to the Night's Watch is "Don't fight, retreat!" β
Even though they knew that they had lost the shared god domain of the Doomsday God Department, established the Earth God Kingdom in Northern Europe, and secretly did a lot of things, the association still had no intention of hunting them.
There is no other reason, only the strength is realistic, and the association is not ready to start a war with the Four Horsemen of Doom at the same time.
But obviously, it is not "don't fight" to solve the problem now, the other side has a conspiracy, and now the group is blocked here and is easily exterminated, which is a matter of course.
At this moment, countless thoughts crossed Jiang Shang's mind. Many solutions have been laid out one by one, but ......
"The plague will bring Dean Liu Anping, so the rest of the Spark team should have been wiped out, and the best result is that they are all taken hostage."
"If we fight head-on, although we have one of the ten colors, Sun Hongling and the others have also recovered some of their combat strength, I am afraid, they will be completely killed in seconds."
ββ¦β¦ Two Apocalypse Maharaja came to Asia at the same time. What the hell is it for, this place is too far away from their earthly kingdom, is it planning to open up a new territory in the far east? β
Many clues were deduced one by one, and naturally, all the problems came down to the nameless old god.
"The body is obviously the divine power and divine domain of the four knights, but it does not have the intelligence and combat ability that the old gods should have, and it looks like a conspiracy to appear here without warning...... Could it be that he is the new main god of the Doomsday God system. But doesn't it mean that after the death of the god king, it is impossible for a new god to come to this world? β
The two lords are in control of the situation, but they are like a cat and a mouse. Just as the scene remained eerily calm, someone broke the balance.
"Ahh broke the deadlock, but it was the third party that everyone expected.
The nameless old god awoke, and when he regained consciousness. The first thing to do is, of course, to charge the enemy.
Black gray, blood red, and miserable white, the three types of divine power were condensed into the crystallization of divine power. The terrifying fluctuation of soul power made the space vibrate slightly.
"Die!!"
Luna leaps in front of the crowd, arms crossed, ready for protection, but .......
"Die!! Pestilence! β
The old god actually launched an attack on the old god king, the source of his divine power.
He roared and roared, and the purest divine power in his soul was extracted and turned into a deadly missile.
Where the three-color missiles passed, the atmosphere was rotten and black, and even the space began to peel off and shatter, although the skills of using divine power were very rough, but they were willing to consume the most fundamental soul power, and the power of these three-color missiles should not be underestimated.
Everyone's faces turned pale, such an attack had exceeded the historical record, and even Luna, in the face of such a divine power aggregate, was not sure of a hard connection.
One finger, the black-robed man just stretched out a finger.
With a slight touch of the seemingly ordinary finger, the three-color missile was like seeing the owner's pet dog, but it was swirling in the fingers of the plague lord.
An invincible attack in the eyes of mortals, but in the eyes of the plague, not worth mentioning.
"Oops, is this what it's like to be bitten by a dog you raised? Stupid thing, you intend to attack us with the power we have given you? β
War stretched out his hand, and in an instant, the nameless man was held in the big hand of steel.
"Brother, it seems that something is wrong, my war blessing was expelled, and he actually regained his senses."
The plague showed a thoughtful expression, expelling the blessings of the gods, and it stands to reason that it should have the same level of power, is there anything here?
Only Jiang Shang made a high-speed calculation through the Great Yan Xingjue, and vaguely guessed something.
"The Thick Earth Central Spell! Yes, the City Breaker can't do it, only that soul skill has this possibility. β
Standing on the back of Anonymous just now, he also used a thick earth central spell, which didn't seem to work at that time because it was too far away from the earth, but now it seems that the ten-star soul technique played a role at that moment.
Since he was standing on the body of the old gods, and the old gods were standing on the earth, this soul skill saw itself and the old gods as one, creating an otherworld, and at the same time cutting off the connection with this world, so that the blessing of the Lord of War was interrupted, and Anonymous was able to regain his sanity.
The breakthrough of the situation made Jiang Shang calculate, and an ability that he originally thought would never be used became a lifesaver in his mind.
"Perhaps... That ability will work. But my current power of sealing the gods is not complete enough, unless I complete the transaction with Gui Xia Niang first, but now ......"
But it's a pity that the real gods, the original outcasts, are still wise and cunning.
The plague threw Liu Anping on the ground and set his eyes on Jiang Shang.
"The Gods? What did you do. What else is going to be done. β
He used an affirmative tone, the only unplanned existence present was this sudden appearance of the god sealer, the four major divine enemies are the special vaccines for the gods carefully designed by the primordial sea, and some very special abilities are normal.
And he vaguely felt that there were endless variables in this seemingly ordinary teenager, and if he didn't do it, even his own would be overturned in the gutter.
Threatened seedlings? Just erase it.
And his gaze and exploration made Jiang Shang very uncomfortable.
When the snake stared at the frog. The frog will not move, this is the gap between the natural enemies, and when the gods set their eyes on mortals, the weakness and stupidity of mortals are about to be exposed, this is the gap in rank.
"Yes, it's a pity."
The former one is a good evaluation of Jiang Shang, and the latter one is a pity, this is a judgment of his future.
"Rot."
It's still a finger, but under that finger, all living things will come to an end.
The plague has no intention of talking nonsense. For him, seeing the divine enemy of the end of the growth and erasing it with his hands is only equivalent to a mortal stepping on an eye-catching ant on the road.
That finger was very slow, and the slow Jiang Shang could see his every movement clearly, but unfortunately, he couldn't move.
"I ...... I don't want to die! But alas, intellectually, intuitively. Today, it will be his own death.
"I... Unwilling! "Angry teenager, struggling, expecting the same as before. punched the other party's seemingly noble face fiercely, but helplessly, in front of the real god, he couldn't even move a finger.
But when he was ready to accept his mortal fate. A slender figure stood in front of him.
In the presence of the Plague Lord, mortal life is meaningless. The beauty who stood in front of him immediately lost her life.
Under the gaze of the gods, mortals could not move, but there were people who had already acted in advance, and she had been guarding Jiang Shang's side.
And being able to block Jiang Shang at this critical moment was an object that Jiang Shang did not expect.
Under the attack of the plague god, Gui Xia Niang's slender body hung down weakly, her black hair turned white, and she walked directly into death.
In order to save herself, the girl in the flower season passed away with the wind, and her slender delicate body fell weakly, which made people feel desperate powerless, and it will surely accompany Jiang Shang for life.
Seeing the sacrifice of the maiden, the plague lord who caused the tragedy laughed.
"The true feelings of mortals are really touching. Look at this girl's face and give you ten seconds to say her last words. β
As he spoke, the other finger was empty, obviously, Gui Xia Niang's sacrifice only delayed Jiang Shang's life and death by a few seconds.
Gui Xianiang fell head-on on Jiang Shang's arm, and the bangs spread out with the wind, but it was not the bewitching and beautiful she originally expected, but a delicate and pretty face.
is completely different from the legend, Gui Xia Niang is not shocking, but has a delicate and refined temperament, not so much a bepping rose, but more like a fresh lily.
But now, it's a flower that is about to die.
The girl's weakness made it impossible to speak, but Jiang Shang saw from reading his lips what the other party had been thinking about.
"Promise!"
"Promise!"
Yes, you don't forget your promises!
"Please die once."
Ten minutes ago, Jiang Shang said this to Gui Xia Niang.
And now, the other party has realized the promise, then, the rest is their own part.
"Please die once."
When Jiang Shang said this, even his own felt that he was a little excessive.
The two sides are the enemy of the Star Soul Battle, on one side is alone, on the other side is a whole battle group, if Gui Xia Niang read out that Jiang Shang is not hostile, I am afraid, I think I am taking the opportunity to ask her out and get rid of her.
But when she heard this, Gui Xia Niang smiled, she had already understood what Jiang Shang meant.
This road that is not a road is not the first one discovered by Jiang Shang, but it is probably the first one to propose to the other party so calmly.
In the battle of star souls, the winner wins everything, and the loser loses everything, and the only way for it to end is the death of each star soul envoy.
So, is there a way to let the Star Soul Envoy end it without dying, a long time ago, according to the rules of the Star Soul Battle, the Star Soul Envoys came up with a solution that was not a way.
First, the two Star Soul envoys reached a private will, and then one of them died.
According to the rules, the winner will take everything, but the star soul is a miraculous power that controls life and death, if at this time, the dead star soul is embedded with a star soul that can be fused, then the dead star soul will be resurrected, but after that, he becomes the soul servant of the victor.
The reason why it is called a method is that although such an agreement has appeared several times, in the end, there are no successful examples.
The soul that has been stripped of the star soul has declined excessively, and the success rate of re-fusion is very low, and the star soul with high adaptability is hard to find. Harmony was interfered with by a third party.
There are many reasons. In fact, it is simply a distrust of the other party.
If the mountains and rivers are exhausted, who is willing to give up their strength and entrust their lives to the enemy, when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, the winner may not be willing to waste a precious star soul.
"The Impossible Star Soul Exchange Agreement" "The Most Hypocritical Dove of Peace"
But Jiang Shang originally checked this example in Penglai's database, and he had no intention of realizing it, and here, when he found that his hostile Star Soul Envoy was by his side, he made up his mind and proposed this "most hypocritical peace agreement"
But he knew, that was all. It is not enough to gain the trust of the other party.
"If you are worried about the failure of Fusion, my Divine Power can guarantee 100% success of Fusion. Don't you have the ability to read minds? I should be able to tell that my advice is genuine. β
The girl smiled.
"You said as if you can definitely win, although there are not many soul servants, our Moon Creek Clan will not be weaker than you."
"The Tuyumen family has decided to give up on you, and I, through the exchange, have already gained the support of the association, as well as the support of the two "Ten Colors", plus we also have special soul skills for you on our side. Your odds are slim. β
The basis of the negotiation is to take the initiative, Jiang Shang did not hesitate to exaggerate the odds of victory on his side, and. More cunningly, what he said was the truth, but there was a difference in degree, and it was definitely the truth. On the contrary, it can make the other party's lie detector-like mind reading ineffective.
Obviously standing beside the other party, Gui Xia Niang smiled.
"It's a bit of an exaggeration, but most of it is probably true. But. We have never counted on the support of the Tuyumen family, but we can accept your proposal, and our war will be postponed until graduation, and we will only divide victory and defeat, not life and death, including the soul servants. β
"Is it less fierce to fight?" Jiang Shang was a little incomprehensible, obviously the more he went back, the lower the opponent's chances of winning, why he still insisted on delaying.
"I thought you would either propose to go back and go to war, or you would agree" The former is the best way for the other party to expect to win, and the latter is the most likely scenario that the other party has no expectations for the Star Soul Battle.
And inexplicably, Jiang Shang felt that the proposal that was most likely to happen was the last possibility.
"Yes, I'm not interested in the Star Soul Battle, I only have two sister-like soul servants, and the Star Soul Skills of the three of us are all auxiliary abilities that can't be used on the battlefield. Replacing a fighting star soul may still be a good thing. Speaking of this, the girl seemed to recall something, and the corners of her mouth curled.
"But I'm not alone, I also have companions, I am not only their leader, but also their dreams and future, how can I give up this most precious treasure with my tongue and want my star soul? If you want to win the Star Soul Battle, can you? Let the horses come. β
The slender bangs made Jiang Shang unable to see the girl's face clearly, but judging from the smile on the corner of her mouth, Gui Xia Niang was very confident in her companion.
Jiang Shang also smiled, although he didn't expect it at all, but this result was more liked by him than the previous one who eats the law of the jungle and the winner takes all.
"Good. I promise, healthy competition, only win or lose, regardless of life and death. β
"Compared to the brutal war that lost everything after defeat, this kind of ending would have satisfied me." Speaking of this, Gui Xia Niang blushed as if she remembered something.
"Well, before we decide the winners. Stop the fiancΓ© relationship for the time being, I don't want you to make excuses for failure afterwards. β
Jiang Shang nodded. "And rightfully so!"
Obviously, he admitted the other party's proposal, but the other party seemed to be angry.
Of course, at this time, the girl's life was passing in her arms, and he couldn't guess such a wood anyway, what the girl wanted to hear.
"Actually, we can learn from the hero and heroine of the 'love assassin', even if they are hostile to each other, they secretly date and fall in love."
The pale, almost corpse-like face, showed that the vitality was passing wildly, and the girl's last regret was that she missed the opportunity in hesitation and didn't say anything.
Even though, she has already made the heroine confess in her latest romance novel book.
"Is this an invitation to go on a date? By the way, forgot to say it. Although it's just a marriage contract arranged by the seniors, you're unexpectedly not annoying, congratulations on passing my inspection, so let's go on a date together. β
I don't even have the strength to cry, so how can I have the strength to confess.
The girl finally tried to open her eyes, but the godless eyes still did not fall into a single ray of light, and the attempt to introduce the other party's appearance into the memory would only turn into nothing.
"Plague!!"
If the gaze of hatred can kill, the plague has been cut by a thousand knives, but at this time, Jiang Shang can only repeat that sentence.
"I'll make it happen, I won't let you die!!" (To be continued......)
