Chapter 239: The Eternal Chosen One
At the same time, the northern land under the dark night was full of murderous atmosphere. Even the icy wind could not weaken this terrifying killing intent.
"Humph!
”
Archan coldly threw the corpse aside in his hand, and he stood up, his eyes burning with endless rage. And feeling the anger of this great chosen god, the demons around him didn't even dare to take a breath.
For Aichahn, he had never expected the situation to take a turn for the worse in a day, and just before that, he had been victorious, believing that the Combine's resistance was nothing more than a futile struggle. However, after only one day, he felt as if he had been slapped in the face, full of anger and humiliation.
The Chaos Chosen Champion was all killed, not a single one remained, and the vanguard army suffered heavy losses and completely collapsed, which was an unacceptable defeat for Archaun!
However, if you accept it or not, the result is doomed.
Enraged, Archaon felt that things were not what he had imagined, and he sought answers from the Chaos Gods to find out who had ruined his plans. However, the Chaos Gods' response was ambiguous and unclear, and it seemed that they did not intend to tell Archahn the truth.
But Archahn knew that this was the test he had to face, and after becoming the Chosen One, the Chosen One, it would be the last and greatest obstacle in front of Archaun. If he can't eliminate that guy, then he will also fail, and in the end, his fate may be the same as the previous sixteen Eternal Divine Choices——— or even more miserable.
Don't let those damn bastards get their way.
Archaon clenched his fists, in fact, the Chosen Eternal God, blessed by the Chaos Gods, did not worship the Chaos Evil Gods, on the contrary, he hated these abominable beings terribly. It was because of the curse and despicable methods of the Chaos God that he had to fall into such a situation.
In fact, Archahn also has a rather peculiar background.
He was originally a knight of Sigmar and a fervent believer. Until then, Archahn had lived a life of chanting Sigmar's name to destroy evil and heresy. One day, however, he meets a young sister who is escorting to church a book containing heretical, world-destroying prophecies of eternal God's chosen one. As an Imperial Knight and Sigmar Believer, Archaun naturally volunteered to escort the nun to the church.
As a result, he was captured by his fellow Knights.
At that time, Archahn did not think that he had anything to do with the prophecy of the end of the world, and he even planned to prove his innocence with his colleagues, but before he could hit the road, a group of Chaos Knights suddenly rushed out, they shouted slogans, protected Archahn, and then attacked the Imperial Knights.
The Imperial Knights who were attacked by the Chaos Knights were naturally shocked, thinking that Aichahn had surrendered to Chaos, but Aichahn himself was also confused, and later the Chaos Knights and the Imperial Knights were both defeated and died, and Aichahn couldn't understand why he was loyal to the Chaos Knights and why he was declared a heretic.
So Archahn went to the cathedral and knelt before the statue of Sigmar, praying and asking his gods for guidance.
However......... I don't know if Sigma drank too much or fell asleep at that time, but in short, Aichahn was not comforted by the gods he believed in, which suddenly plunged Aichahn into the abyss of despair, and he thought that even the gods he believed in had abandoned him, so what was the use of his own faith?
Well......... If Duanmu Huai knew this story, he would have felt that the facts were strikingly similar——— which was almost the same as the civil strife in the Empire, and in fact there was a joke circulating among the player Inquisitors, "If the Emperor is alone with his children for more than an hour, the Horus Rebellion will not happen".
It can be seen that both the emperor and Sigma are still quite lacking in the education of their own descendants.
Unable to get a response from Sigma, Archaon naturally went berserk, and then he directly killed the church guards, rushed into the archbishop's room, and asked the archbishop why he regarded himself as a heretic, after all, before this, Archaon could be regarded as an imperial knight with excellent character and learning, and his faith was also very religious, and he had never committed any blasphemy, so Aichahn couldn't understand why the church of Sigma considered itself the eternal chosen one to destroy the world.
However, the archbishop's answer left Aichahn speechless, and the archbishop said that they were not sure whether Aichahn was the eternal Chosen One, so to be on the safe side, they searched all parts of the country for the opposite of the people described in the prophecy, and more importantly, the prophecy book wrote that the real eternal Chosen One would come to the cathedral, and then asked the archbishop about the question that Aichahn asked.
It can be seen that this is another self-fulfilling prophecy. Of course, similar things are often seen in RPG games, the Demon King learned that there was a brave man in the prophecy who could destroy himself, so he sent people to search for and kill the Brave, but the Brave happened to survive, and embarked on an adventure for revenge, became the enemy of the Demon King, and finally became strong and killed the Demon King...............
Therefore, if the Demon King does not listen to the prophecy and does not send and kill the Brave, then the Brave will not take revenge on the Demon King, and will not kill the Demon King because of it.
Same reasoning, same ending.
It's just that the demon king in this story has been replaced by the empire, and the brave man has become Archaun.
Later developments are like those RPGs, Archaon escapes the pursuit of the Empire, and then embarks on an adventure, he is like a brave man to collect all six magic tools of the God of Chaos, become the prophesied eternal Chosen One who will destroy the world, and then begins to sharpen his sword Huo Huo intends to destroy the Demon King———Oh, no, destroy the world.
But Archaon did not surrender because of this, the reason why he chose to accept the test of the Chaos Gods and become the Eternal Chosen One is to completely destroy this world, in this way, to make the Chaos Gods lose their power and let everything end completely.
If Duanmu Huai learned about Aichaun's thoughts, then he would definitely laugh at the stupidity of the other party, perhaps Aichahn naively thought that as long as he destroyed this planet, he would be able to make the Chaos Evil God fail or even destroy it together. But in reality, it's just a playground for the Chaos Gods.
And it's one of the more.
There are thousands of similar planets in the galaxy, and even if Archaon tries his best to destroy it, for the Chaos Gods, they will just change places and continue their fun.
But it was clear that Archaon didn't know this, so he didn't know that no matter what his convictions and ideals were, what he did would ultimately bring the Chaos Gods a little pleasure.
That's all.
Small, ignorant, impulsive souls are the best toys to be played with by evil gods.
Even if Archahn really destroys the world, then the Chaos Gods will not perish, on the contrary, they may show Archahn the vastness of the entire universe, so that the poor creature can know that everything he cares about is just a drop in the ocean in this vast world, and everything he does is just like ants shaking a tree, meaningless and worthless except for a pleasure.
At that point, whether this stupid idiot will break down in despair or will be determined to spend his life destroying everything is another matter——— that's another matter.
But it's a pity that Duanmu Huai won't let this ending appear.
"Prepare the horses!"
Archaon strode out of the tent and gave the order.
This time, he has to take matters into his own hands and destroy the enemy who stands in his way!
In the darkest moments before dawn, the Chaos Army set off again, and at the same time, the Combine Army, which had received the signal, moved quickly and organized their formation again.
Duanmu Huai stood at the forefront of the battle hammer and the metal secret dragon——— Teglis's body had been burned to ashes by him with black flames, and only the head was left for Yurik. The White Wolf God was furious at Tegris's actions, saying that when the matter was over, it would talk to Azuyan and Lilith about it, and if they couldn't give themselves an acceptable answer, it would bite off the elven mongrel's neck.
But right now, it's still the most important thing to repel the Chaos Legion's onslaught.
Soon, the army of chaos slowly appeared in the darkness.
This side is Duanmu Huai taking the lead, and the opposite side is naturally Aichaun. After yesterday's battle, both the order and the chaos side have already made it clear that the victory or defeat of these two will determine the final direction of today's battle.
If Duanmu Huai destroys Archaun, then it means that the destruction of the world is a dream, and everyone will stay wherever they go.
If Archaon kills Duanmu Huai, then it means that the Eternal Chosen will truly destroy the last hope of this world.
Like the Vanguard, the main team of the Chaos Army is led by four Chosen Champion Lords who belong directly to the Chaos Gods.
Among them is the tyrannical lord [Undefeated] Abar, who is large and rides a flesh hound.
A god of desire transformed from the High Elves, the six-armed snake demon [betrayer] Dishara.
Wearing heavy armor and wielding a meteor hammer, the child of the blight, the Soul Reaper [Ripper] Vanir.
and Yin Graeme, a warlock who was once a light mage of the Empire and is now a deteriorator who has fallen into treachery and wields a two-headed dragon.
Standing at the forefront of the Chaos army is naturally wearing the scarred armor of the first Eternal Chosen Mokai, holding the Great Sword of the Monarch Slayer sealed with the demon Uzuha, riding a pitch-black Apocalypse War Horse, wearing the Crown of Domination that can rule all Chaos creatures and the Eye of Shelon that can predict the future, and the Eternal Chosen ——— Archahn, who has the Chaos Mark of the ultimate blessing of the Four Gods of Chaos, burning on his forehead.
In the eyes of others, this terrifying existence riding a black war horse, wearing black armor, and holding a flaming sword in his hand does have a strong sense of oppression that is enough to crush and destroy together.
If you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that it is a luxury to want to muster up the courage to stand in front of him.
However, his opponent is also not a general.
Duanmu Huai sat high on the back of the metal dragon, he held the Thunder Hammer in his hand, the eye sockets of the pitch-black skeletal helmet radiated a scarlet glow, the winged double-headed eagle logo glittered on his chest, and the huge golden skull on the shoulder armor and waist exuded some ominous glow. It seemed that the next moment, he was going to turn the world into ruins.........
This Nima ......... Who is the eternal chosen one?
I have to say that the moment he saw Duanmu Huai, Aichahn was even a little stunned, and he even wondered if the other party was here to compete with him for the position chosen by the Eternal God, after all, no matter how he looks at this dress——— he doesn't look like a good person?
And why is your skull bigger than mine?!
The thought flashed through Aichaun's mind, and then he snapped his great sword and looked at the Imperial army in front of him, and roared loudly.
"Fear me, mortals, for I am the anointed one, the chosen one of chaos, the one who scourges the world. Behind me is the heavenly army of the gods, according to my wishes, with my sword, you and other weak and small countries will never recover! ”
Aicharn's roar echoed throughout the battlefield, and the warriors who heard his roar couldn't help but feel a sense of fear and commotion.
However, at this moment, another voice rang out.
"Meaningless struggle, Aichahn."
Duanmu Huai sat on the metal dragon and stared at Archaon coldly.
"You call this power? In you, I only see corruption and enslavement——— what makes you willing to fall and shamelessly bow your knees to those monsters? Arrogant......... What arrogance, you are so proud of your own power that you think we are vulnerable to the gods you serve, and yet......... This is not the case. You simply don't understand how strong the will and anger of the Inquisition is, and how fragile and small your anger and cowardice are. ”
Duanmu Huai's voice was not loud, but I don't know why his words made those demons tremble, as if he was simply telling a fact, a fact that everything was about to be destroyed.
Then, Duanmu Huai raised the war hammer.
"Fight! And then destruction! Then repeat, and then repeat! Until no breathing creature dares to oppose us! Everything else is an illusion! ”
Duanmu Huai's roar turned into thunder, echoing above the sky, and even the demons who had no scruples trembled with it, their eyes widening in horror. The Combine were demoralized, raising their weapons and roaring in anger.
"Die!
”
The next moment, Duanmu Huai leapt from the metal dragon and blasted towards Archaun with a war hammer in hand.
"In the name of the Inquisition, I will utterly destroy your lowly flesh and filthy soul!"
