"The blood is surging, the flesh and bones are jumping, and every part of the body is thirsting for greater power to liberate......"

Ganondorf looked at Link with a cruel smile, his right hand raised high, and an ominous miasma instantly rose behind him, and the secret stone on his forehead also emitted a dazzling light!

In the next moment, the light of the secret stone reached its peak, and a dark red totem appeared from the light.

Wow!

This is the Secret Stone of Darkness owned by the Demon King, the Secret Stone of Time originally mastered by Sonya, the first queen of Hyrule, but after being designed and captured by Ganondorf, it became the Secret Stone of Darkness of the Demon King, and the queen died because of it.

The secret stone is a secret treasure that multiplies the power of the holder, and Ganondorf, who is already powerful, has become the king of monsters under the increase of the secret stone.

With the spread of the black and red miasma, the entire underground space was shrouded in darkness, and under this boundless darkness, a red glow lit up, eerie and terrifying.

By the time the condensed miasma dissipated slightly, Ganondorf had changed his appearance greatly, and he had turned into the strongest demon king form.

The red hair fluttered without the wind, the clothes on the body also emitted red glow as if burning, the upper body had a totem like a ravine, and the already dark body blended into the darkness.

On the forehead inlaid with secret stones, there were even two short horns, adding a touch of evil to it.

"It's time to call it over!"

Ganondorf, who had taken the form of a demon king, had a hideous and terrifying face, and looked at Link's alien arm: "This time, your arm alone won't help. ”

I saw the demon king Ganondorf wave his arm, and several miasma suddenly appeared around him, and those miasma contracted and solidified, turning into a form that was no different from the demon king.

A doppelganger of the Demon King!

When he was looking for clues about the princess in Hyrule, Link had fought with him several times, but at that time, the demon king's clone was still in the form of a dry corpse, not his current full form.

The complete body of the demon king's clone, the power of choosing people to devour is even more terrifying.

Link, who doesn't like to talk, ignores the Demon King's wild words, preferring to use the sword in his hand to show his meaning.

"Link, I'm here to help!"

At this moment, Qiu Li's voice sounded, and the few people who had been dragged down finally defeated their respective enemies and rushed over.

The clone of the demon king, who was originally going to besiege Link, was dragged by several people who rushed over in an instant.

"Demon King, let me beat you until you drum!"

"Good, caught up!"

"Link, let's beat him together!"

"Ganondorf, let's make a break now!"

"Whew...... I didn't miss it! ”

Seeing that the companions who came together dragged the demon king's clone and sent words of encouragement to themselves, Link nodded and still didn't speak, but the hand holding the sword tightened a little.

In an instant, a miasma erupted deep underground, and Link slashed through the miasma with the Master's Sword in his hand, fighting the real Ganondorf.

The glowing sword of the master is like a light of hope in the darkness, and with hope, the darkness will not be feared.

Ganondorf became more and more frightened the more he fought, obviously he had liberated the power of the secret stone and turned into the true body of the demon king, but he was still suppressed by the glowing sword.

It was clear that even the original King of Hyrule, Lauru, had failed to do this, and Lauru was a Protoss with the power to destroy demons.

Damn it!

Ganondorf forced Link back with a single sword, his red hair dancing without wind, and with a flick of his right hand, the crimson clones turned into miasma again and began to converge on him.

When the miasma returned to his body, Ganondorf let out a loud shout and knocked all the sages around him away, except for Link in the field.

Looking at Link's fearless expression, Ganondorf smiled evilly, stretched out his hand and beckoned to Link, inviting him to fight again!

This time, Ganondorf's combat power, which had gathered all his magic power, returned to its peak, and an offensive far beyond imagination struck towards Link like an overwhelming attack.

But compared to Laurou, who once had no chance of winning, Link at this moment can be said to have firmly grasped the only chance to win.

He gradually adapted to the Demon King's attack.

In particular, the sword of the master in his hand is full of divine power, it can be said that this sword was born to crusade against the demon king, a hundred years ago to crusade against calamity, and a hundred years later to crusade against the demon king.

With the trump card of the Master's Sword, Ganondorf's magic power has gradually been reduced, and his combat power is also rapidly decreasing.

Sensing that he seemed to be about to lose, Ganondorf's offensive became even more frenzied, alternating his sword, spear, hammer, and bow, each with a miasma that could reduce his vitality.

However, this only allowed Link to get more and more adapted, and gradually changed from barely defending to looking for opportunities to attack actively.

The manic Ganondorf no longer has the previous victory in his hands, and the whole person seems to have broken his defense a little bit, and even the offensive is gradually chaotic, and there is no previous rhythm.

Bite!

A crisp snap rang out, and Ganondorf stiffened for a moment as Link flicked Ganondorf's slashed knife away with the shield in his hand.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Link stabbed Ganondorf's chest with a sword, and the master's sword instantly shone brightly, and the light of exorcism expelled the huge miasma in Ganondorf's body.

Ganondorf, who had been hit hard, screamed and retreated, and couldn't help but reach out and cover his chest.

His power...... In the lapse!

"Ah——————!h

Unwilling anger overwhelmed Ganondorf's sanity, and he leaned back in rage, dragging his long red hair to the ground.

"I am...... The ...... who rules over all things"

"Almighty King!!"

A roaring Ganondorf clenched his fists into the sky, then straightened up and looked at his right hand of passing power.

"Never accept ......"

"Never accept that you are ...... by a mere human being!!"

As he spoke, Ganondorf took control of his face, to be exact, the secret stone on his forehead that increased his strength.

In the next second, Ganondorf's right arm bulged, as if he was grasping something with all his might.

With a click, the sound of glass breaking sounded.

The accessories on Ganondorf's forehead shattered, and the secret stone that increased his strength was pulled out by Ganondorf with light shavings, and the position where the secret stone was originally inlaid was actually a black mist, and his power passed faster.

After forcibly plucking the secret stone from his forehead, Ganondorf bent down breathlessly: "Self and body are meaningless! ”

"I want you to go to hell with me! Let this world come to an end in endless darkness! ”

After saying that, Ganondorf lifted the secret stone and tried to swallow it, which is a forbidden technique called the "dragon method" in the legend of the secret stone.

Those who swallow the Secret Stone will be transformed into an immortal dragon, and from there, they will gain eternal time.

However, since it is called a forbidden technique, it naturally has side effects, and those who incarnate as dragons will lose themselves, and there is no way to reverse it.

Ganondorf is at a dead end at the moment, and he wants to swallow the secret stone and directly turn into a black dragon that destroys the world.

At the moment when Ganondorf sent the secret stone to his mouth, a laser suddenly shot out.

Smack——!

The laser hit the Secret Stone, sending it flying directly out of Ganondorf's hand.

Immediately afterward, a small flying robot catches the Secret Stone and takes it away from Ganondorf's side.

"What!?"

The sudden change shocked Ganondorf, and Link, who was waiting on the sidelines, couldn't help but turn his head.

I saw that the flying robot carrying the secret stone returned to Xia Yu's side with the secret stone, and Xia Yu, who was lying on the ground after being knocked away, also struggled to get up at this moment.

Looking at the little robot that returned to him, and the secret stone that the little robot was holding, Xia Yu held back his excitement and reached out to hold the secret stone in his hand.

After starting it, Xia Yu felt the power from the secret stone, and finally determined again that the secret stone that could multiply the power was really in his hands.

"Aha, I've been working hard for so long, I'm just waiting for this moment!"

Seeing that his years of hard work had finally come to fruition, Xia Yu gradually changed from a chuckle to a wild laugh, smiling like Ganondorf who had obtained the secret stone in the first place.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Link wanted to ask a question, but because he was not good at words, he just cast a puzzled look with his eyes.

Fortunately, there were other people who were awake at the scene, and because it was a golem body, Mineru, who was not unconscious, couldn't help but ask, "Xia Yu, who are you?" ”

"Everyone has the right to choose their own path, and I choose, to become the Demon King!"

Xia Yu grinned at Mineru's position, then tore the clothes on his chest and pressed the secret stone to his chest.

In the next moment, the accessories around the secret stone condensed and inlaid the secret stone, fixing the secret stone on Xia Yu's chest.

"Ah...... I feel like I'm full of throwing tiles! ”

In an instant, the secret stone shone brightly, and Xia Yu's body appeared with a miasma that originally belonged to Ganondorf, and the black-red miasma enveloped him layer by layer.

After the miasma dissipated, Xia Yu also changed his appearance, the white hair on the back of his head fluttered without wind, white totem patterns appeared on his body, and his originally handsome face also had a trace of evil, but there were no horns on his forehead like Ganondorf.

Compared to Ganondorf, his physiognomy has not changed much.

"You...... Why do you have my power!? ”

This series of accidents made Ganondorf lose his mind for a long time, but when he felt the magic power on Xia Yu's body, he instantly reacted, why can this person of other races also have his power!

"It's the power of technology!"

A black and red miasma appeared in Xia Yu's hand, this is the power of the demon king who can create and control monsters, with this power, he can control all monsters!

As for why he has the power of Ganondorf's Demon King, it is because he used the technology of the Shika clan to invent the power extraction device.

In the entire Hyrule, the Shika are arguably the most technologically powerful people.

The powerful guardians and mythical beasts were created by the Hika clan, but this power made it difficult for the Hyrule royal family to sleep, after all, the strength of a single race naturally made the royal family fearful.

In other versions of Zelda, the Hika were directly purged, but in the world of Breath of the Wild, the royal family did not exterminate the Hika, but only exiled some of the Hika people.

The exiled Shika have since been divided into two groups, one is the vengeful faction represented by Lord Kogai, who want to take revenge on the world and unite into one organization, Team Igai.

One is the forgiveness faction represented by Impa, Purya and others, who forgave the Hyrule royal family who once persecuted the Hika tribe and continued to help the Hyrule royal family.

Xia Yu didn't know how to evaluate this history, after all, whether it was a revenge faction or a forgiveness faction, it was the choice of the Shika people themselves.

However, despite the persecution, the Shika still have the highest level of research and scientific and technological prowess in Hyrulelu.

Therefore, Xia Yu was able to use the technology of the Shika clan to research the power extractor, and he extracted the magic power in the deep cave miasma and integrated it into his body.

Although it is not much, but with the increase of the secret stone, plus the death of the previous demon king, then he is the new demon king.

Moreover, although the worldview of Tears of the Kingdom has the existence of a goddess, there is no existence of a triangular force, and there is no entangled fate between the brave, the demon king and the princess.

That being the case, there's nothing to worry about.

"Old fellow, your time is over, and the world should be ruled by young people!"

Xia Yu naturally didn't explain to Ganondorf the reason why he could obtain magic power, he just laughed at Ganondorf arrogantly.

According to the times, Ganondorf was a man from 10,000 years ago, and he was indeed an old guy.

"Ah——————!!h

Ganondorf, who had broken the defense again, was incompetent and furious, but this time he lost even the secret stone, and he couldn't even do the final death.

Seeing that the partner who once helped him turned into a second-generation demon king in the blink of an eye, Link looked sad, but he still didn't say anything, just looked at Xia Yu so fixedly.

Xia Yu: "......"

“…… Link, why don't you say something? You just look at me like that, a little bit of a nod to it. ”

"Why? Why become a Demon King! Link didn't speak, it was Mineiru who spoke.

"What is there, there will be again. What has been done, it will be done again. ”

Xia Yu didn't answer Mineru directly, just said this, and then walked in front of the weak Ganondorf under Link's vigilant gaze.

After being seriously injured by Link, he lost the power of the secret stone, and Ganondorf at this time can be described as extremely miserable, and the strength in his body is still passing.

He couldn't even stand now, so he had to get down on one knee and hold himself on.

Feeling the magic power of the Demon King's passing, Xia Yu shook his head: "Instead of wasting, it's better to fulfill me." ”

After that, Xia Yu suddenly grasped Ganondorf's head, and then grinned at Link: "I will solve the Demon King, don't thank me, and besides, we may not become enemies, after all, I don't want to destroy the world." ”

Immediately afterwards, Xia Yu casually clicked on a device on his body, and blue light lit up on him and Ganondorf, and the two of them gradually turned into blue streamers and disappeared here.

Looking at the departing Xia Yu, Link was silent for a moment, and withdrew the master sword in his hand from the scabbard, even if he wanted to do something, it would be in vain to find no one.

Despite his mixed feelings, Link didn't say much, and instead walked over to several other sages who had fainted, trying to get them out of here.

After all, this is the lair of the Demon King, and although the Demon King has disappeared, the miasma that pervades the surroundings still exists.

If they stay here for a long time, they will definitely cause irreversible damage to the bodies of ordinary people, but as sages, they don't have to worry.

But there is no solution to stay here, so let's go back to the surveillance fortress first and ask Purya what he thinks.

……

Monitor the fort.

After the plague ravaged Hyrule, the Surveillance Fortress was established, and Purya became the commander of the Surveillance Fortress, gathering refugees who had come to take refuge.

Purya, the first authority to study ancient technology, became a direct researcher of the Kingdom of Hyrule at a young age.

She used to use herself as an experimental subject for rejuvenation research, so even if her actual age is over 100 years old, she still looks like a beautiful girl at this time.

In the days of Breath of the Wild, Purya was helping Link, but she was a child.

"So...... On the way to the crusade, Xia Yu rebelled directly? He seized the power of the Demon King and became the second generation of the Demon King? ”

After listening to Link's explanation, Purya held her forehead with a headache: "I knew that he would definitely not keep to himself, but I didn't expect that he would want to become the new Demon King." ”

“Wait a minute！”

"You're not telling a lie, are you?"

Suddenly, a strange old man next to Purya spoke strange words, he was very short and wore a strange research glasses.

Lobeli, a first-class technician who helped Link with his research, worked with Purya at the Hartno Institute of Antiquity to develop the Purya tablet.

The Purya tablet that Link is using today has a lot of his contributions, and mixing the two languages is his mouth fetish.

"Lord Swordsman definitely won't lie, but I don't believe that Lord Xia Yu will become a demon king, obviously others are so good."

A white-haired little Lori next to Lobeli said with a sad expression, her name is Joshua, she is a genius girl who is not good-looking, and has an admirable talent.

After Hyrule Castle was lifted to the sky, a large number of miasma caverns appeared on the ground, and through investigation, a pitch-black underground world was connected to the bottom of the caverns.

And the underground world is full of miasma, and there are countless monsters infected by the miasma.

In addition, there are glowing minerals in the underground world, and if it weren't for Xia Yu's suggestion, the members of the underground investigation probably wouldn't know what those minerals were for.

Therefore, Joshua, who is the person in charge of the underground investigation, has a great longing for Xia Yu, second only to Purya, who she longs for the most.

"You said that Link won't tell a lie, so it seems that Xia Yu has really become a demon king, it's really worrying!"

"Alas...... I didn't expect that after solving the matter of the Demon King, there was a new problem, and it really couldn't be easy for a moment. ”

Purya sighed deeply, now that the demon king has been taken away, and the princess has not been found, Xia Yu seems to be the new demon king, and things suddenly become complicated.

If it is really as Xia Yu said, he will solve the demon king, then it is okay, at least the demon king is no longer a threat, but the trace of the princess is still a mystery, which is really difficult to calm down.

Obviously thinking that after defeating the Demon King, there should be a clue to the princess, but now, you have to know where Xia Yu is first.

Thinking of this, Purya sighed lightly: "Let's sort out the clues first, for example, where will Xia Yu go." ”
