Chapter 8: The Beginning (I)

"I ...... Very... I'm sorry. ”

After saying this, the light in Valrhona's eyes finally dimmed completely, and her body slowly cooled and softened.

"Balmunk" let out a hum, and a powerful sword qi erupted, enveloping the woman's body in a dark red, and ignited violently, along with the legendary armor, into a silhouette in the fire, turning into a little spark and going away with the wind.

The flames bloomed in front of him, and Siegfried's originally hot hands had somehow turned cold, just like his emotions at this time.

The magic sword fell from the dragon's hand.

I don't know when, the burning battle intent in his heart slowly extinguished.

Why is all this?

"Truth is often more cruel than the most malicious lie. ”

His Holiness struggled to get up, leaned against a rock, looked at the lost Siegfried, and said in a hoarse voice: "This is what the Nibelungen said to me back then, and I have to say that although that guy is lustful and rude, in some ways, he is actually wiser than most of us. ”

Siegfried just stared blankly at the embers on the ground. It seems that this sentence was not heard.

For him, from the time the sword came out to the present, it was only a short moment, but it was like a thousand years.

On the mountain peak, a divine aura suddenly rose, and a holy white light crossed thousands of miles away and fell from the sky.

His Holiness tilted his head with difficulty and looked at the Pope who appeared, "You're late. ”

The Pope's face was pale, even though he had just entered a desperate situation, but when he saw the scene in the field, combined with the devastated scene on the desperate land, he already had a rough understanding of what had happened before.

"Your Excellency Angel, may I ask what the Heavenly Curtain Dragon Hall is going to do?"

The Pope took a deep breath and stared at the Venerable Leaning on the rock, "Are you planning to destroy the entire Desperate Situation?"

"The real destruction has not yet begun, young little one. His Holiness smiled weakly, "All I want to do is to prevent the Celestial Realm from entering the City of Daybreak. ”

The Pope is undoubtedly one of the most exalted figures in the human world of Icadia, but for His Holiness, he is still only a young junior.

"The expansion of the heavenly realm is unstoppable. His Holiness whispered, "You yourself know this, the Council is doomed to have no chance of victory, and we have no choice but to leave. ”

"So, the council has decided to give up the desperate situation?" the Pope frowned.

His Holiness let out a low laugh, "Those who dare to fight are always a minority, and beings like us, the longer they live, the more afraid they are of death, where do they have the courage to stand up to the heavenly realm?"

There was a thump, and Hilbert climbed up the hill panting, holding his staff.

The old alchemist glanced at Siegfried, and then his gaze fell on the magic sword at his feet, and his cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light, glaring at the boss, "Hell, this is actually Balmonk, what are you doing?"

"Long time no see, Hilbert. The Pope glanced at his classmates, whom he had not seen for many years, and let out a soft sigh, "Are you the only one coming?"

"Those cowards in the Holy Land don't dare to come out at all. Hilbert paused for his staff and snorted coldly, "This old man is right, most of the council members just want to protect themselves now. ”

The Venerable said lightly, "No one will come to help you, go back to the City of Daybreak, little ones." ”

After saying this, His Holiness's eyes slowly closed.

In the silent sky, Fenrir's roar reverberated again.

The Pope did not speak, but walked to the edge of the deep dark canyon and silently gazed at the distant horizon, the wind of the other world blowing his simple robe like a white flag flying over.

Hilbert knew what he was looking at, and after a moment of silence, he walked up to the Pope and watched with him.

"Back then, it was not far from here that she saved us all. "Today, as survivors, what reason do we, as survivors, have to abandon the people who have fought for generations in this land?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a few shining rays of light rose from a long distance.

Seeing this scene, Hilbert breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that those old friends think the same way." ”

...

Adam stood silently in the temple room for a long time, looking indifferent.

It wasn't until deep in the void that Fenrir's roar rang out that he raised his head.

Adam stepped forward, pushed open the wooden door in the corner of the room, and stepped into the heavenly mountain.

Bang!

In the Heavenly Mountain, there was a violent vibration.

Dozens of minutes later, a loud bang was heard throughout the city of Olympia.

In the main square, countless priests rushed out of the shaking hall.

Then they saw a scene that stunned them.

The entire Great Temple of Radiance has actually disappeared.

......

Fenrir is hungry now.

Simply devouring a Constantine's body was far from satisfying its hungry body after it had just woken up.

The character of the demon wolf is already extremely tyrannical, and after being suppressed for tens of millions of years, his spirit is even more insane, and after being freed from the ancient seal at this moment, his ferocity is even greater.

Fortunately, there is a lot of food in front of me, although it is not as good as the gods of the past, but the taste is barely in the past.

It's ready to feast on it first.

After many days of dormancy in the void, Fenrir opened his eyes and mouth again.

The colorful sky of the Desperate Plane trembled again, and under the shocked gaze of countless trialists, huge spatial cracks opened one after another, and a storm of energy surged in.

Through the cracks in the thick plane, countless people saw a pair of eyes that were brighter than the silver moon, radiating a brilliance that made all living beings shudder.

With just one bite, it shattered the spatial crystal wall of the plane, revealing its slender and sharp teeth that were longer and sharper than the mountain peaks, and greedily scanned below.

On the ground, many trialists had already woken up from the shock, and the powerful people with advanced realms even began to fight back.

In the sky above the Dawn Fortress, the largest city in a desperate situation, figures rose one after another, bursting out with a powerful magical aura, and all kinds of powerful high-level magic and bloodline skills blasted towards the Fenrir Mountains-like body one by one.

"I can't do it!"

Fenrir scoffed at the attack.

As a super life that survived the Ragnarok Havoc, even if it had just been reborn, it was not something that these mortals could shake.

The icy winds that could freeze the plains, the fires that burned the city, the thunder that shattered the earth, and even the energy blast that could flatten a hill would not work at all on Fenrir's body, and at most cause some small scars.

And these wounds, as large as a rift, are completely insignificant in Fenrir's body.

"What kind of monster is this?" Inside the Dawn Fortress, a legendary mage broke out in a cold sweat.

The faces of several fellow mages beside him were not good-looking, and the spell attacks they collectively cast, even if a group of dragons attacked, they could only face the end of drinking hatred.

However, a mythical being like Fenrir is beyond the limits of legendary mages' understanding.

Even powerful and ferocious creatures such as the High Dragon, the Ancient Titan, and the Abyss Lord can be described as docile compared to Fenrir, which is devouring most of the sky at this time.

Fenrir raised the wolf's head and spewed out a black mist that obscured the sky.

Darkness and fear are the best seasonings for the demon wolf.

A few dazzling lights suddenly rose in the distance.

Fenrir, who was about to make a move, narrowed his eyes.

Although in its eyes, all living beings below the gods are insignificant, like dust.

However, these dust particles seem to be more powerful than the others, and at least they deserve some attention.

"It's the sword-bearer. "On the fortress of the Great Wall, someone saw the sword that crossed like a meteor, as if it was about to split the sky in two, and exclaimed.

The cold and silent intent of death pervaded, and countless behemoths made of white bones appeared in the sky, forming a magnificent army of necromancy, brushing like a gray blizzard.

"Hades. A warlock from the Immortal Throne exclaimed when he saw the figure of the owner of the fifth floating island.

"Your Excellency Elemental Will. "There are many magicians who are pleasantly surprised.

The three masters of the floating island holy land actually appeared at the same time at this time and went to the battlefield in person.

Soon, however, to the shock and despair of all the trialists, even the Lord of the Three Holy Lands could not help Fenrir.

The owner of the Immortal Throne, "Hades" Akid, is standing on a giant dragon made of bones, holding a staff in one hand, chanting incantations, directing hundreds of skull dragons, and all kinds of strange flying undead creatures to pounce on Fenrir.

This undead army is powerful enough to rival any elite army in the enemy realm, but Fenrir has no interest in even looking at them.

The vast majority of undead creatures would automatically ignite before they could get close to the black mist that permeated the demon wolf's body, leaving not even bone chips left.

Only a few mighty bone dragons could penetrate the black mist to attack Fenrir's body, but the breath that erupted from their mouths could at best help the wolf dust his hair off.

"Fool, if the numbers were any use, I would have been surrounded by those damned Heroic Warriors tens of millions of years ago. Fenrir sneered.

A clear roar resounded through the desperate situation, and the snow-bright sword light fell to the ground like the Milky Way, piercing Fenrir's eyeballs as bright as the moon.

At the same time as the sword light appeared, dozens of sword qi powerful enough to tear the essence gold roared out, forming a storm of sword blades, breaking through the air and slashing at Fenrir's forehead.

Fenrir shook his head and swatted the "fly" that had rained down from the sky with a wave of his paws.

The sword-wielder fell from mid-air with a pale face, and the magic sword in his hand broke inch by inch.

Fortunately, the "Elemental Will" Sidora not far away waved his hand and rolled up a cloud of wind, dragging his body down, allowing the sword-wielder to avoid the fate of becoming the first master of the Holy Land to fall to his death in history.

"Damn, what kind of monster is this?" the sword-wielder was shocked and speechless, and with all his might, Fenrir actually attacked

Sidora's face was also very solemn.

As the master of the Holy Land, known for his magical power, his magical prowess is unparalleled, and so far, only the spells cast by this "elemental will" have caused some damage to Fenrir.

He kept changing his form, gesturing with incantations, weaving countless magnificent and deadly spells.

The magical light fell like meteors, blasting wound after wound on Fenrir's body.

So, correspondingly, Sidora received the most "care".

Nearly a quarter of the black mist released by Fenrir was closing in on him, causing Sidora to replenish herself with a magical shield or defensive barrier every few minutes, otherwise she would be engulfed in a fog of chaotic power.

In that dark mist, not even a single ray of light could escape.

After only a few minutes of fighting, the three lords of the Holy Land were completely defeated.

Fenrir let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth, and a blue and black storm tornado erupted from his mouth and nose.

The tornado was mixed with arc-shaped lightning, which instantly smashed dozens of bone dragons that rushed into it, and even forced the three Holy Land Lords back to a distance of thousands of meters, and their bodies were completely out of control.

The necromancer Akid's bone dragon mount fell apart in the storm, and he himself was tossed into the air by the storm, about to be turned into a charred corpse by the arc.

"It's over. Seeing this, the thought flashed through the minds of both the sword-bearer and Sidora.

Just as the "Hades" was desperate, a divine light shone violently on him, and the holy light that was originally used to kill all necromancers actually formed a barrier to protect him at this time.

Akid's eyes widened, "Divine Blessing?"

For the first time in his life, the Immortal King felt that such a thing as holy light could be so kind.

The Pope's figure floated in the gale, unaffected, and the milky white light encircled the old man, extending in all directions, forming a huge field that sheltered everything within the scope of the light.

"Hold him down, don't let him near Fortress of Dawn. The Pope explained succinctly, and then recited a few more verses of the gods, blessing the rest of his companions with divine magic, so that they would also be protected from the disturbances of the storm.

The geniuses of the previous generation of the same Dawn City, they also cooperated with each other, although they have not seen each other for decades, but the tacit understanding between the strong has been properly preserved.

After hearing Innocent's voice, the three of them shook their bodies, reacted quickly, and stabilized their bodies.

"I didn't expect you to come back. Sidora looked at the Pope above her head and said, her voice full of emotion.

"He's not the only one here, Sidora. "A metallic voice sounded, it was Hilbert's voice.

The old alchemist was floating in the air, and at this moment, he stared at the sword-wielder with a somewhat unkind expression, "What about the sword I made for you back then?"

The sword-wielder coughed awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I was broken by that monster just now." ”

Just when he thought that Hilbert would be furious, the latter quickly pulled out dozens of legendary swords from the ring, threw them next to the sword bearer, and said angrily, "That's all for Lao Tzu's inventory, you take it for me, go and cut that wolf a few more times, don't expect me to make you a sword in the future, you slut." ”

Looking at this familiar scene, the Pope smiled with satisfaction and looked back at the few behind him, "Old friends, it seems that they are all here." ”

"There are a few more who haven't come, but I can't wait for them now. Akid said lightly, his fingertips once again condensing a strong aura of death.

Not far away, another roar of Fenrir was heard sweeping through the heavens and the earth.

The demon wolf was very annoyed, and it was just that he failed to kill those ants, and even mixed in a new ant, and this ant also had the divine light that Fenrir hated so much.

With this anger, it opened its mouth, and the storm that shook the sky brewed in it.

The Pope took a deep breath, his old face revealing determination, "Time is running out for us, old friends, let's start fighting." ”

An infinite milky white light erupted from the Pope's body, covering most of the sky in holy light.

Behind him, the hearts of several lords of the Holy Land sank at the same time.

They could all see that the Pope was unleashing his magic in a life-burning way at the moment.

Even if the battle was over, they might survive, but the Pope was not destined to make it back to Daybreak alive.

......

The Crown of Mysteries is a floating island where it is located.

Ola closed the book, put the last book back on the shelf, and slowly stood up, staring at the sunset over the floating island like a solidified blood-red sunset, falling silent.

Behind him, there sat an old man full of bookish atmosphere, holding a cup of tea and reading a book, and when he saw Euler get up, he also raised his head, and his eyes flashed with an incomparably complex light.

"I can't believe that you have actually read all the books here. After a long time, the old man sighed.

The old man is the owner of this floating island, and the legendary mage Ilminster, who is known as the "Great Sage", entered the Crown of Mysteries fifty years ago, and has been immersed in reading ever since, and has not paid much attention to the affairs of the Council.

But even he hasn't been able to finish all the books on the shelves until now.

"My friends are all fighting now, and I'm the only old guy who stays here, and I can't do anything but read, after all, I'm not good at fighting. ”

Ilminster looked up at the sky, wondering if he remembered the sunset on the top of the mountain that year, and was a little distracted.

By now, news of the outbreak of war in a desperate situation had spread throughout the City of Dawn, as well as throughout the Council.

According to the prophecy report of Kepler, the legendary warlock of the Star Tower, it seems that there is a terrible existence that has shattered the crystal wall of the plane and descended to a desperate situation, causing great damage to the entire plane.

The violent shock caused the spatial structure of the entire desperate plane to be unbalanced, and the coordinates were distorted, thus losing contact with the City of Daybreak.

The portal to the desperation of the Sixth Floating Island has completely failed, and the powerhouses of Daybreak City cannot enter it at all to carry out rescue.

"As clichΓ© as it sounds, all we can do at the moment is pray. Kepler reported at a meeting inside the City of Dawn.

However, as one of the dozens of people who watched the scenery from the top of the hill that year, Ilminster certainly knew more about the inside story.

"Knowing that there is no chance of winning, and still choosing to fight, you say, isn't it stupid?"

Ilminster sighed, "What an annoying and admirable bunch, just like the idiot heroes who chose to fight with the King of the Protoss until the last moment in the legendary twilight. ”

"But perhaps, it is because of these idiots that our world is a lot less boring, and even more of a miracle. ”

Euler suddenly said, "When you say that, I remember that I have to go." ”

Ilminster asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go find a guy who has lost his way. ”

......

A teenager, constantly walking.

His footsteps shuttle through the infinite void space, step in the twisted time tunnel, and walk alone through countless forgotten memories.

Walk through the frozen soil that has been frozen for thousands of years.

Walk through the ruins of the Star Sea Divine Kingdom.

Walk through the battlefields of Ragnarok.

At the end, there is a deep nothingness.

He stood silently in place, thinking, bewildered....

After a long time, he finally found a name among countless fragments of memory and knowledge: Odin.

This is his name, from the oldest eras, to the present day.

However, there is another name that remains in the memory: Constantine.

For him, the latter is just a codename, an identity that is dispensable in reality, like a grain of sand and an insignificant speck of dust in the desert.

He is Odin, the king of the gods, the ruler of everything, he has billions of doppelgangers, as long as his true name is not destroyed, he can continue to be reborn, erase all previous memories, and return from the long river of time.

But why? This time the memory was so deep that he couldn't forget it, even after walking so far.

Odin couldn't figure it out.

What disappeared from Fenrir's mouth was Constantine, or was it ......

In his consciousness, the last image that remained was an endless black mist surging towards him.

Then, the pocket watch in his hand released a dazzling brilliance......

It was as if a bolt of lightning exploded in my mind.

"It seems that you have finally realized something. A faint voice sounded behind the boy.

The boy turned around and saw another young man with a calm face not far away.

Retrieving the memories he once had, the boy's name seemed to be Ora.

Constantine woke up, "Where is this?"

Looking around, there was darkness all around.

"This is the deepest part of the world. ”

Euler whispered, in this vast darkness, his deep eyes were unprecedentedly bright, like two little suns. "Welcome to the abyss. ”
