-42- God's name
Thunderous roars echoed, and the tumbling clouds pierced through with dazzling light.
In the forest, under the bushes, birds and beasts huddled and shivered.
In the villages of northern Xinjiang, trembling villagers prostrate themselves on the ground, praying and prostrating themselves to the raging clouds and rays of light in the sky, praying that the wrath of the gods would not befall them.
Wrath of the Gods......
No, more precisely, it should be the power of the gods.
Crimson, silver, and purple rays of light swam among the clouds, tumbling and entwining.
They chased and fled, exuding an aura of destruction and coercion, and everywhere they passed, the sheer power of the gods already made all souls tremble.
Occasionally, divine light pierced through the clouds and fell on the earth, cutting off the river and collapsing the mountains in an instant, a scene of the end of the world.
This...... It is the power of myth.
After chasing for an unknown amount of time, the crimson light finally caught up with the silver and purple rays, and the boundless darkness instantly engulfed the sky, obscuring the scorching sun, and in its place, a rising blood moon.
A deafening roar echoed through the dark clouds, and with it was accompanied by a rapid exclamation:
"No...... How can you possibly have this power...... How could you possibly have such power! ”
"Who are you? You...... No, who the hell are you? ”
"We admit defeat, we are willing to stop fighting!"
That exclaimed...... Frightened, confused, appalled.
And after the exclamation, it sounded an ethereal and majestic female voice:
"Truce? Sorry, I don't accept a truce. ”
Crimson brilliance burst out in an instant, and red brilliance fell from the blood moon, lighting up the entire sky.
A cry of horror and anguish rang out in the sky, and the silver and purple light grew dimmer and weaker under the crimson light, until it finally disappeared completely.
The rolling clouds gradually calmed down, and the magic of restlessness slowly subsided.
The boundless darkness faded, and the blood moon hanging high in the sky faded, the sun shone on the earth again, and the world returned to calm, as if everything had just happened...... It's all hallucinations.
Of course, the crumbling mountains, the cracked earth, the truncated rivers and the messy forest are enough to show that what has just happened is not an illusion, but a real terrifying divine war.
The majesty of terror dissipated, and the birds and beasts regained control of their bodies, and they fled in terror, as if they were still in the mood for what had just happened.
In the dense forest, a red light fell from the sky, and the light dissipated, revealing Charlotte's figure.
She was still an adult, her whole body was still faintly surrounded by crimson blood divine power, and there were two illusory light clusters floating in her hands, one silver and one purple.
Under the forest wind, her silver hair flew, and her golden-red pupils swept across the messy ground, flashing a trace of chagrin:
"Movement...... It seems to be a bit too big. ”
"There's no way, the magic and elements of this era are far more active than those of later generations, the extraordinary power in the air is also easier to mobilize, and the destructive power of the Divine War is far stronger than that of later generations......
"This kind of destructive power, if it were in the afterlife, I am afraid that only the real 'gods'...... Can you do it? ”
"It seems that when we fight other myths in the future, we will have to stay away from the ground."
After deciding in her mind that she should stay as far away from the ground as possible when fighting in the future, Charlotte looked at the two light balls in her hands.
No, or more accurately, the "loot" she had just captured, the divine fire of the two old gods.
The battle with the Old Gods was far easier than Charlotte had imagined.
It turns out that the gradually perfecting Blood Sacred Scripture is also becoming more and more oppressive against the "Old Gods".
Although she was a little caught off guard when she was ambushed by the two old gods just now, she didn't know that as soon as the two sides fought, Charlotte was surprised to find that fighting with the old gods who were also demigods in this era was simply a father beating his son, not too easy.
Her blood divine power is simply heavenly for the old gods, not only can she constantly eat away at the other party's divine power, but also suppress the power of the opponent's divine power explosion, so that after just a few calls, the two old gods who were ambushed felt wrong.
After a few rounds of fighting, the two myths who found that their ideas were too hard invariably chose to turn around and run.
Of course, the current Charlotte has already accumulated quite abundant divine power, and they did not escape from Charlotte's palm, but were chased by Charlotte, and after a battle, they were easily cut off their bodies, devoured their divine power, and captured the divine fire.
Unlike the last time she fought Adora, the god of abomination and aberration, the two demigods she encountered this time were much weaker, which was another important reason why she was able to end the fight so quickly.
Not only that, but as she fought the two demigods, she vaguely felt a familiar aura from them.
Or more accurately, an aura similar to the gray-white mist behind the two eerie stone doors in the depths of her consciousness.
"The blood girl I rescued in that village before is exactly the same as the image of Rowena I have seen, and it is likely to be Rowena in the future."
"At that time...... The priest of the Old Gods in front of her also had this familiar aura on him. ”
"Now, these two demigods also have this kind of aura in their bodies, perhaps...... I can find out what this aura is by 'interrogating' them, and if it really has something to do with the so-called primordial......"
Thinking of this, Charlotte looked at the two light clusters in her hands again.
Divine fire is the root of the demigod and the prototype of the godhead.
The divine power of the demigods comes from the divine fire, and the origin of the divine soul of the demigods is also stored in the divine fire.
It can be said that if the divine fire is not extinguished, the demigods will not fall, and only when the divine fire is extinguished, the demigods will die, and the demigods will not return until someone helps them light the extinguished divine fire again.
In other words, although these two demigods lost their divine bodies and the divine power in their bodies was devoured and seized by Charlotte, they did not hang up yet.
No, even if it is the divine power devoured by Charlotte, it is only the divine power in their divine body, and the divine fire is the source of the divine power of the demigods, and 90% of the divine power of the demigods is in the divine fire.
It's just that when Charlotte carefully observed the two divine fires in her hands, she found that the divine fires of these two demigods were not the same as her own.
Her golden-red divine fire burned in her heart, and an illusory crystal engraved with thorns and roses could be faintly seen in the divine fire, which was her godhead that had not yet been condensed.
But the two demigods' divine fire was different, their divine fire was much smaller than Charlotte's, and it looked like it had just been ignited.
Not only that, but there was no phantom of Godhead in their divine fire, but only two broken crystals.
The crystal was not an illusion, but a real entity, swirling in the divine fire, and the aura was quite deep, and Charlotte soon realized that it should be a true fragment of the godhead.
What's more, on these two fragments of Godhead, Charlotte could also feel the familiar aura of gray-white mist.
This made Charlotte quite curious, curious about the identities of these two demigods, and even more curious about their powers.
"I don't seem to have seen your information in the sources, you seem to be demigods that the city-state has never recorded, who are you? Where did it come from? ”
Charlotte asked.
Silent.
The two divine fires did not respond, and even Charlotte could still feel that the spirits of the two demigods were still hiding in them.
"Don't answer? Seemingly...... I'll have to ask in a different way. ”
Charlotte said lightly.
As she finished speaking, crimson brilliance bloomed in her palm, turning into golden-red flames that burned on the two clusters of light.
The screams soon rang out, and weak and frightened voices came from the two divine fires:
"Ahhh......hhh I say...... We say......"
"My name is Katno!"
"My name is Clero!"
"We are from the Temple of the Sun!"
Katno?
Clero?
Charlotte frowned slightly.
In the past two days of traveling to this era, in addition to completing Lilith's work, her main task is to consult the information of the old gods active in the northern frontier in this era for the next "hunting" plan.
But...... She had never heard either of these names in the Old Gods.
And......
Temple of the Sun?
Isn't that the territory of Helios, the sun god, one of the two main gods of the elves?
These two demigods are subordinate gods of the sun god?
But they ...... It doesn't seem to be an elven demigod, and if you follow the historical record, at this time and time, the sun god Helios should have fallen long ago, and the sun temple has all turned into history.
Moreover, even if it has not been turned into history, shouldn't the remnants of the Sun God still linger in the broken Western Continent, how could it appear in the Northern Frontier and become the "pawn" of the Old God Force?
Could it be ...... Elves and the Old Gods have teamed up?
Charlotte was a little confused.
"What is your god's name?"
She continued.
"We ...... We...... We don't have a name ...... God yet."
The two divine fires were in a state of flux.
No god name?
Charlotte was stunned.
Myths cannot be without god names.
Even demigods can't be without.
Because the name of the god is the medium of the existence of the myth, it belongs to the anchor of the god as well as the symbol of the god.
Names of gods, symbols...... These are the two anchors of mythology, and only with anchors can myths be "remembered" by the world.
Of these two anchors, the symbol is not necessary, but the name of the god must be there.
After all...... Having a god's name is a prerequisite for igniting a divine fire.
Even a wild demigod like Charlotte has the god of the night as his god name, and after the bloodline further awakens and "changes" history, he directly has the god name of the ancestor of blood or even the true ancestor of blood.
But these two demigods even say they don't have a god name?
That's impossible!
Without the name of God, how could they ignite the fire of God and become demigods?
