"Mephistopheles?" Ulysses' heart fluttered when he heard the name.

It wasn't the first time he'd heard the name, and he had known from Aya what a powerful demon it belonged to, the "Demon King" of the same class as Astaroth, Lucifer, Lord of Death, and Beruda.

It was a demon king who was good at manipulating the power of the soul, and he was the only demon king who could resurrect people whose souls were completely dead and shattered, and in the realm of resurrection law, he was comparable to the powerful demon king who claimed to be "omniscient and omnipotent".

What's more, the resurrection method was indeed shown in front of Ulysses, summoning the dead Lilizi back from the dead.

It can be said that it was precisely because of witnessing the miracle of Liliji's resurrection that Ulysses finally made up his mind to embark on the path of the Demon King.

Even Aya didn't know why there was a power related to Mephistopheles in this world, and Ulysses naturally didn't know what was going on.

But it didn't matter, he only needed to know one thing—it was the only way to bring Yuria back.

Everything he did after choosing the path of the Demon King was all about preparing for the new masquerade.

For Mephistopheles, Ulysses' impression has always stayed on the "dead demon king", and he only remembers the resurrection method firmly.

However, when Goethe said the words "Mephistopheles" in front of him, Ulysses felt a great shock on the mental level, and even the body reacted wonderfully.

As if petrified by some kind of cursed magic, Ulysses went into a motionless state of stiffness.

Long Jian immediately sensed Ulysses' abnormality, and immediately blocked in front of him, using his body to prop up a wall for him.

"It's useless, in the face of Mephistopheles' power, you're just ant-like creatures. Goethe looked at the dragon sword that protected Ulysses like a chick, and saw his way to death.

"Mephistopheles, is that the power you want to get your hands on at all costs?" Long Jian vaguely remembered Goethe's madness in that final battle, the ugly appearance of the young man who had once given the impression of a sunny boy turned into a monster.

"That's right, I've been chasing this power for as long as I knew the name, and it took thousands of years, and even my body crumbling several times, before I finally got a piece of the inheritance from Mephistopheles and began to master it. ”

Goethe walked among the insects, his face full of nostalgia, and the powerful demon insects flew around him, looking like a sage who had come out of the sea.

At first, he thought it was just the power of some high-level demon from the Demon Realm, and it would only take some time to fully grasp it.

Unfortunately, it turned out that this was a big mistake, the inheritance of Mephistopheles he obtained was completely beyond his control, just fusing into his own body caused him to encounter the horror of nine deaths, if he hadn't used the "Philosopher's Stone", it must have been impossible to fuse that legacy anyway.

But even so, he still didn't have full control over this part of the power. Mephistopheles' abilities are simply beyond the laws of this world, and have the effect of subverting all common sense.

During the war in the Land of Lamentations, it was a sudden loss of control of this legacy that caused his perfect body fused with the Philosopher's Stone to be blown to pieces by the uncontrollable force, and finally fell into a deep slumber in the outer regions of this faraway land.

But this is not entirely a bad thing, it is precisely because of the complete collapse of the perfect body and his first death that he is beginning to truly grasp the power of this legacy.

Mephistopheles' power transcends life and death, and if you don't die so many times, I'm afraid you won't be able to understand the true power of this legacy. The perfection of his body, which he had always prided himself on, became the main culprit that prevented him from truly mastering this inheritance.

Speaking of which, this is also thanks to the priest named "Mephies" in front of him now, it is precisely because he didn't know what method he used to cause Mephistopheles' legacy to get out of control and kill him, so that he learned the real way to use Mephistopheles's legacy.

"You will never understand how powerful this power is, and this is not the power that can be born in this world. Goethe looked at Ulysses and the dragon sword in front of him with pitiful eyes, which were already eyes that did not belong to this world.

The higher he stands, the farther he sees, and after obtaining the correct use of Mephistopheles' power, Goethe's vision transcends the level of this world and sees a higher dimension.

Although he had only gained a portion of Mephistopheles' power, something he saw had completely upended his view of the world, making him realize how small and insignificant the world he lived in.

The world was too small to accommodate him for Mephistopheles' legacy. But even so, he still needs something from this world to prepare him for breaking through to a higher level.

For him, the path ahead is incomparably clear, and it is not himself that limits him, but the world.

He will eventually transcend this world and trample everything under his feet.

"Ignorance has the happiness of ignorance, and since the soul jade has arrived, then I have no reason to stay here anymore. You will be like the rotten twins of fate, and you will become the dust of this world. Goethe raised his hand, and the countless demon insects began to spread their wings again, making soul-shaking insect chirps.

This voice reaches directly into the hearts of the people, causing the greatest fear and despair, and summoning the greatest misfortunes. This is a nightmare from the void, a demon that will devour all life.

Against these demon insects are countless sword lights that shatter everything, which is the last power of the dragon sword that has overdrawn the body to the limit, and the dragon killing destruction sword style that exerts the power of the bloodline of the brave to the limit.

It is precisely because there are people who want to protect and the future that they want to protect that the brave will be the brave, and the dragon sword, which has inherited the bloodline of the dragon brave, has exerted a more powerful power than usual in the face of these demon insects.

Unfortunately, his body is too fragile. He has used the Dragon God Transformation twice in a row, and he has successively made the Bloody Scale Shield, and he has broken the star, and every time he swings the sword, he will tear his muscles once, and the countless sword lights represent not only courage, but also the price of life.

"The desperate spirit is worthy of praise, but unfortunately in the face of absolute power, this little resistance is useless. The third eye on Goethe's forehead locked on the heart of the dragon sword, and then gave the command:

"As God says, you will not be able to resist my gaze. ”

A small and sharp white light appeared from Goethe's third eye, and then instantly pierced through the sword light that smashed the demon insects, shooting through the giant sword in the dragon sword's hand and his heart, which was the power that made Kuya fall in the first place, the ancient magic of divine words.

"Ahem!" The dragon sword that had been pierced through the heart did not fall like that, but gritted its teeth and stood in front of Ulysses, raising the broken sword in his hand again, devouring the chaotic elemental power around him.

"Do you still want to use the broken star in this body?" Goethe naturally knew what kind of starting style this was, and with the power of the third eye, he had a good appreciation of the battle between Dragon Sword and Ulysses just now.

If it was a broken star used by the first generation of dragon warriors, it might still pose a little threat to him now, but the broken star that the dragon sword could use was obviously a half-toned product, not to mention him now, even before he didn't get Mephistopheles' power, he could eat it all without changing his face.

The power of the Philosopher's Stone is not something that ordinary people can imagine, when he successfully refined the Philosopher's Stone, he was already one of the highest-level powerhouses in this world, otherwise he would not have been besieged by so many forces because of his identity leakage.

"Don't underestimate the determination of the brave. Long Jian's whole body was bathed in blood, but his eyes were surprisingly bright.

These are all his own blood, as a ninth-level powerhouse, he can't even control the bleeding, which means that he is really at the end of his rope, even if he is crushed in the next second, it is not surprising.

But even so, he still drew his sword, and with that incomplete gesture, he swung the last of the Shattered Star Sword.

This sword was obviously so weak compared to the sword in his heyday just now, the sword momentum that could have shattered a side of heaven and earth only had an attack range of several hundred meters, but what this sword contained was all the faith and will of the dragon sword.

It was not the will to "win", but the will to "protect", the sword not to destroy anything, but to buy time, to buy time to sober up Ulysses in trouble.

In the darkness, Ulysses stared blankly ahead. There's something out there that confuses him, something that makes him hesitate. It was a strangely shaped piece that looked like part of a key.

Ulysses unconsciously took out a mutilated key, a key that he had deliberately forgotten and thrown into a corner he didn't even know.

To Ulysses' surprise, he didn't know when the initial and middle parts of the key had been filled.

The color of the first part is a gentle purple, the color of violet, the color of charm and pampering, like that of a girl who takes care of his sister.

The color of the middle part is cyan longing for happiness, the color of the lucky blue bird, just like the color of the dream girl who embraces him.

The rest, and the last part, the only broken part.

"The first fragment, hidden in the ancient homeland, don't go and peek. ”

"The second fragment, hidden in the girl who can cry, don't let her cry. ”

"The third fragment, hide in yourself, don't doubt yourself. ”

"What's inside the door is not happiness, it's truth. ”

Comparing the gap in the key, Ulysses recognized the location of the fragment not far from him, which was the last plug-in, the gray plug-in.

In addition, there are scattered white balls of light floating around this key, and some strange and familiar figures can be faintly seen in the balls of light.

Although none of these orbs of light were intact, the occasional images within them kept Ulysses from looking away.

A beautiful angel with four wings spread, a strange woman standing in front of the silver moon in a dashing manner, a black-clad magician praying to a huge dark chalice, and a petite red-eyed girl with horns who is angry at herself with a flaming long knife...... Who are they...... I am...... No, I actually ...... Is all this true? Or is the world with itself...... Just as Ulysses was confused, shaken, and vaguely aware that he was beginning to become less like himself, a hearty voice woke him up from this strange world.

"Hey, it's time to get up, my daughter is still waiting for you to take care of her, you can't talk about it!"

The voice pulled Ulysses back from that ambiguous and chaotic world. In that world, time seemed to be frozen, and Ulysses only glanced at the key, but it felt as if he had seen an ancient river of time, enough to make anyone's personal will seem insignificant.

Then Ulysses felt the smell of blood spilled on himself. The blood was as hot as a burning flame.

"Yo, you're waking up too late, it's not a good habit to let my uncle wait, don't do this when you date my daughter in the future. Remember, when I went to Dragon Island to find my daughter, she should have the character Xia in her name. ”

With a relaxed expression, the dragon sword waved at Ulysses, leaving the last of his back.

Then, everything was dusted and dirt was returned, and the dragon sword disappeared into this battlefield where he fought until the last moment, leaving nothing behind.

No, it wasn't that nothing was left, he left behind a promise, an agreement, and a back that Ulysses could not forget.

That's what Ulysses has been missing, and what he lost a long time ago, a fatherly back.

"It's just an extra ten seconds, what's the point. Goethe could not understand the idea of the so-called brave. In his eyes, everything that exists in this world is already killable, but the difficulty of killing is slightly different.

"You're not Mephistopheles. Ulysses slowly raised the abyss in his hand to convict the crime, and the blood of the dragon sword still remained on the sword.

Ulysses finally realized the true nature of the key, as well as the amount of demon power he wield, and the nature of the starry sky magic and divine magic he possessed.

That's right, he also has the power of Mephistopheles, and even got the legacy left by the demon king in this world.

Aya was right, he was more suitable to be a demon king than anyone else, because he was chosen by the power of the demon king from the beginning. From the earliest days, he was chosen when he was in Mira Village, and the power of the demon king named Mephistopheles was the first power of the demon king he obtained.

"You don't see Mephistopheles, but Mephistopheles is everywhere. ”
