"Apophis, the sword of the former Demon King......"

Roy sighed, "Demons can almost be said to be mortal enemies of mankind, if Sidenia doesn't seal this sword, would he really dare to put it in the Altar of the Heroic Spirit?" ”

The Heart of God chuckled: "The law weapon is not something that can be forged by man, and the current law weapons in Sidenia are all obtained from various adventures, secret realms, or wars.

"Leaving aside those law-abiding weapons that have no owner for the time being, it is not uncommon to invade other small worlds and plunder them from war, and Apophis is just one of them.

"Humans who have survived in harsh environments don't care about the past of these instruments, they understand that power does not distinguish between good and evil, and if necessary, they can also be 'demons' in the eyes of other races."

"That's really ...... Pragmatism. Roy let out a long breath, then looked at the evil black-gold sword in front of him.

"So, since it is a legal instrument recommended by you, what is so special about it?"

The Heart of God replied, "The target who is harmed by Apophis, his wounds will never heal, and he will suffer the curse of Apophis."

"The curse continues to erode the target's health and soul until death, and cannot be dispelled.

"After the user "liberates" Apophis' true power, it can target and inflict an even more powerful curse on it without having to hit it.

"This is its main ability, the target that is corrupted by the power of Apophis will eventually be destroyed, so it is called the Sword of Destruction and the Sword of Demons."

Roy was dumbfounded: "The curse that cannot be dispelled, continuously erodes the life and soul of the opponent, and even designates the opponent out of thin air, isn't that equivalent to directly pronouncing the opponent's death sentence?" ”

"This is a law sword, its effect is close to an artifact!"

"Artifact? Not really. Godheart smiled, "I haven't talked about its shortcomings yet. That's—

"The users of Apophis will suffer its curse as well."

Roy: "? ”

What a self-detonating truck!

Should it be said that it is worthy of the demon's legal weapon, this is the first time he has seen a legal weapon that debuffs his own user.

"Of course, as a user of Apophis, the curse you have received is not serious, it is just the aftermath of the energy that escapes from it."

Godheart explained, "For demons, their special life structure allows them to withstand the backlash of this sword, but humans cannot.

"Even if it is only an aftermath of escape, it is a chronic poison that can kill the weak human body, and once Apophis is truly liberated, its repulsive curse can even lead to the death of the user.

"But you are an exception, Roy, after merging with me, your physical and mental strength has far surpassed that of ordinary people, and now you are enough to withstand the curse of Apophis."

After listening to the words of the Heart of God, Roy sighed: "The magic sword that can make the user die is indeed worthy of the name of the Sword of Destruction.

"But I just paid one-third of my life half a year ago, and now you tricked me into signing a contract with this magic sword.

"God's heart, I really don't think my life is long enough. Do you just want me to burp sooner, and then I can free you sooner? ”

"Don't speculate about me with the human way of thinking." Godheart's tone was calm, "For us, a hundred years is just a snap of a finger, and I don't care about waiting this time longer.

"And you seem to have confused one thing, Apophis is not eating away at your lifespan, but rather on your bodily functions."

"Bodily functions?" Roy muttered, "I remember you talking about the difference between the two. ”

God's Heart nodded: "Lifespan and bodily functions will both lead to the death of life if they are depleted, but there is a fundamental difference between the two.

"Take the game of your previous life as an example, your health bar is reduced when you take damage, but there are also various ways to restore your body function, the simplest of which is the priest's healing technique.

"Lifespan, on the other hand, is more of a causal theory, which cannot be cured by conventional means, and over time it begins to diminish almost irreversibly.

"When you reach a critical point in your lifespan, your body's ability to function will gradually weaken...... Well, it's like cutting your max health.

"That's why creatures that used to be strong will eventually come to an end, and at the end of their lifespans, they will become old and powerless."

"I roughly get it." Roy thought for a moment and said, "Maybe that's the difference between an artifact and a legal weapon." ”

"Apophis can affect "bodily functions", so it is a discipline.

"And what you can control is a more advanced "lifespan", or "life and death", so you are an artifact."

God's Heart bowed: "So, you don't have to worry about being eaten by the curse effect of Apophis, although you are weak now, you have some of my power."

"Your current recovery ability is enough to counteract the effects of Apophis' curse, of course, you may feel a little uncomfortable and uncomfortable for the first time.

"But this kind of just right amount of damage can instead temper your body, accelerate the speed at which I fuse with you, and make your cultivation speed even faster.

"So, if you're hungry for power, Apophis is the way to go.

"Don't you humans have such a saying: Anything that can't kill you will make you stronger."

As the Heart of God finished speaking, Roy fell into thought.

Although the Heart of God guaranteed that his recovery power would be enough to counteract the negative effects of Apophis, it was always a little uncomfortable to bear it and carry a curse with him.

It's like a sword of Damocles hanging over your head, and it always makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

If other laws could have the strength of Apophis, then he would rather choose other laws.

"What other rituals do you recommend besides Apophis?" Roy asked cautiously.

The stakes are high, and he must be selective and make choices that he will not regret.

"Then you can consider this one."

The Heart of God reached out again and pulled another silver one-handed sword in front of Roy's eyes.

"The Sword of Discipline, also known as the Sword of Response, the Sword of Doppelganger, has a simple independent mind and can respond to the will of the user and swing it out of thin air to attack the enemy. You can also transform clones, each of which has the same strength as the main body. ”

"Swing out of thin air to attack the enemy?" Roy was slightly stunned, "Zorn's floating blade seems to be the same, does the two have anything to do with each other?" ”

"Normally, Sidney has been trying to build a law instrument on their own, and for that they need to parse the ability and structure of the existing law device."

The Heart of God replied, "Many of the inspirations for the design of super-grade spiritual artifacts were born from the study of these legal instruments.

"You can think of that floating blade as a super low-profile version of the Flage Sword."

Roy shook his head slightly: "I can use the Spatial Hand of Judgment, and I can also manipulate weapons to achieve the effect of attacking out of thin air, this law sword is not particularly big for me, is there anything else?" ”

"Then you can take a look at this weapon...... "The Heart of God summoned another weapon.

In this way, Roy listened to the Heart of God introduce no less than ten legal weapons in a row, and he was about to finish all the offensive legal weapons.

"That's pretty much it."

The Heart of God clasped his hands to his chest and asked lazily, "How is it, in the end, I still think Apophis is a little more powerful." ”

"Indeed." Roy nodded slowly, his expression a little hesitant.

It is worthy of being a law weapon with its own negative effects, and the strength of Apophis is indeed a big level higher than that of a normal offensive law weapon.

It is standard for a lawyer with a legal weapon to be able to fight across tiers, even for the auxiliary Ritsu sword Joyeus.

But any offensive law, its effect is not as exaggerated as Apophis.

A curse that is almost impossible to dispel, as long as it is touched, it will erode and torture people to death, and this ability is too perverted.

And the Heart of God also mentions that Apophis has a special "liberated" form.

In that form, Apophis' strength will increase again, releasing even more powerful power.

It can be said that aside from its negative effects, it is the strongest offensive type of lawmaker deservedly.

Roy's face was a little cloudy, and he confirmed for the last time, "Are you sure that Apophis will not have an irreversible negative impact on me?" ”

"Yes."

Godheart nodded, "I can assure you of that, don't forget that you still have me in your body." ”

"You are a once-in-a-millennium oracle of Sidney, and you are the only one qualified to take up this magic sword."

"Okay."

Roy closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled it.

When he opened his eyes again, it had become determined.

If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight, and after merging with the heart of God, he has inevitably embarked on this path of divine envoys.

In the future, he will not only accept the challenges of other powerful people, but also stand up as a divine envoy to become the pillar of Sidney when he encounters foreign enemies.

It is conceivable that although the end of this path is supreme power and glory, the path is full of thorns.

To do this, he needed this sword that could sweep away all thorns.

And the reason why he wants power so much is not all for these ethereal grand goals.

The riots in the lower town, the creation of satellite cities, the invasion of demonic armies, and the appearance of the Heart of God are all signs that Sidenia is about to usher in a turbulent era of change.

The wheels of the times are rolling forward, running over everyone equally, and no one can be left alone.

Only by improving your strength as much as possible can you protect yourself and the people around you.

As for the negative effects, since the heart of God has made a package ticket, he is no longer entangled.

He is not the kind of person who is suspicious and suspicious, nor is he a person who cannot afford to suffer, if Apophis is the best solution in the law.

He would have chosen to pick up the sword.

"It's my choice."

After a moment of silence, Roy finally spoke, and he raised his hand to reach for the black-gold sword.

"Make a pact with me, Apophis!"

When his hand touched the hilt of the sword, everything in front of him instantly darkened.

In the darkness, he heard the heart of God laughing.

"Yes, that's what you want!"

Roy stood quietly in the dark, the same transition as when he drove the Gundam, when he was sitting in the cockpit and having fun, but in the blink of an eye nothing was gone.

But unlike last time, this time it was plunged into darkness, and there was one thing that didn't disappear.

His right hand still held the hilt of Apophis' sword, and he could feel the metallic coolness coming from the hilt, but then the coolness suddenly turned into a tingling sensation!

No, it wasn't just the tingling sensation in his hands, his whole body was being invaded by the sharp pain at this moment.

Rao is the passive skill "Body Control" of the Moon Shadow, and Roy couldn't help but shake his body, staggering half-kneeling on the ground, panting violently with his sword.

The pain, which penetrated deep into his bone marrow, reminded him of the kind of torture he had seen on television in his previous life, where nails were hammered horizontally into the fingernails of prisoners.

Not only the physical pain, but also the soul torture, he only felt as if he had been thrown into a raging karmic fire, and his spirit seemed to be about to turn to ashes at any moment in the sharp pain of the burning fire.

The heart of God on the dog day, you lied to me!

Is this called "maybe a little uncomfortable"? Is this called "maybe a little uncomfortable"?

Roy gasped, the intense pain paralyzing his nerves, almost fainting.

But he has been strengthened by the heart of God, and his physical strength and mental strength have long been extremely tough.

Destroying and repairing, two forces rampage through Roy's body, dismantling everything and reassembling everything, a pain that drove him insane.

But even so, he still gritted his teeth and resisted, did not ask the heart of God for help, and did not let out a half-moan.

He chose his own way, and he was willing to bear all the pain of the present time alone.

The torture time was always unusually long, and I don't know how long it was, just when his consciousness was about to blur, he suddenly felt Apophis in his hand tremble.

He felt like his whole body was falling into an ice cellar, and Apophis' consciousness was intersecting with his divine consciousness, trying to build a bridge of communication.

Roy closed his eyes and sank his heart, guiding Apophis to sign a soul contract with him.

Dark purple lines weaved and twisted within his consciousness, finally in the shape of a black-gold sword.

At the moment when the sword was formed, the torment of the body and soul suddenly decreased sharply, and it was pressed to a very small extent.

Roy felt something in his heart, and when he opened his eyes, all illusions shattered.

At some point, he was the only one left in the Altar of the Immortal, and the black-gold sword was floating straight in front of his eyes.

"You boss, you made me so miserable just now."

Roy tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he took Apophis, stroking the lines of his sword with gold trim on a black background.

The black aura that surrounded Apophis fluctuated violently at this moment, as if to protest Roy's displeasure with him.

"Still, the results are good."

Roy stood up and took a closer look at his body.

The negative effect of Apophis acting on him was far less exaggerated than just now.

Just like tying a sandbag to your legs and practicing running, as long as you get used to it for a while, you should be able to subjectively minimize this discomfort.

"It lasted thirteen hours."

Outside the altar, Des Moines put down the pocket watch in his hand, looking slightly dazed.

Standing beside him were Arya, Leaf Dust, and Harvey, all of whom had finished their tour and left together when Roy was over.

"Mr. Des Moines."

Arya stared at the tall figure on the altar, "What's the name of that young master's weapon?" ”

"Young Master?" Des Moines was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, "Oh, you mean Roy."

"The name of the instrument is Apophis."

He also looked at the altar with a complicated look in his eyes, "For more than six hundred years, no one has ever been the owner of this sword.

"Roy, he set a new record."
