Chapter 398: The Twelve Trials of the Black Light
Thundered.
As soon as Red's words fell, the ruins of the entire temple began to shake violently, and the lines of the surrounding walls that were flowing with divine power began to dim.
No, to be precise, the color of the nanoparticles inside is changing.
"You're going out, grab my hand."
Red took Drake's hand and reached out to Polux, the demigod girl first reluctantly glanced at the frozen Kastor, but only hesitated for a moment before grabbing Red's palm.
Bang!
Red rose from the ground like a rocket, directly smashing through the ceiling of the temple and flying out of the temple range, and then landed a few hundred meters away from the temple, and then although he let go of Drake's hand, he still clung to Pollux's soft little hand.
"So what do you mean by what you just said, my body is just a transit refers to ......"
"It seems that even the power of black light cannot directly erode the body of a demigod, and the reason why Kastor can be transformed is partly because his god's bloodline itself is thin, and on the other hand, because in the legend of pan-human history, he once came back from the dead - which weakened his resistance to the power of black light."
In the legend of pan-human history, only Pollux is the child of Zeus in Gemini, and Kastor, as his half-brother, is supposed to be just a mortal.
However, after Kastor died in a duel, Pollux prayed to the gods and was willing to give up his eternal life to save his brother, and Zeus was moved by his will to resurrect Kastor and give the twins the status of gods and constellations.
"You were going to use the Teos legacy here to repair your injuries, right, but it looks like you're still weak...... The effect is very insignificant, right? ”
Red looked thoughtfully at Pollux, who covered his ragged body that couldn't be fully covered, gritting his teeth and looking away a little shyly.
"You don't have to worry about my business—"
"I'm guessing you think that the fall of Zeus has invalidated all the blessings he gave you, so your injuries can't heal...... But in fact it is not. ”
Red's eyes narrowed, and he raised his other hand and reached for Porux's heart.
"Wait, wait, even though I just said that, at least, don't be here...... Uhh ”
There was a little more panic in Pollux's eyes, she wanted to break free of Red but she didn't have enough strength, and in the flash of lightning, Red's hand had penetrated deep into ......
The inside of her ribcage.
Swish!
Red pierced Porux's chest mercilessly, and the demigod's strong flesh was indistinguishable from paper in front of him.
However, blood did not gush from the wound, because Red did not hurt Porux's arteries with great precision, but only grasped Pollux's heart with his hand movements very gently, as if he were caressing a lover's cheek.
Pollux's mouth opened slightly, and he didn't know if he was surprised or frightened and couldn't say a word.
In this moment, Pollux recalls a conversation she had with her brother.
"Tsk, it's Lord Aphrodite and Lord Demeter...... They invited me to afternoon tea again. ”
"Isn't that good, Pollux, and attending the Goddess's meeting is also proof that you are recognized."
"There's no such thing...... Mistress Aphrodite always said that she wanted to teach me the tricks of conquering men, and Mistress Demeter always urged me to find a husband. ”
"After all, Lord Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty, while Demeter is the goddess of fertility and family. Still, is Pollux going to be in a relationship..... Maybe there will be a day like this......"
"Really! Why is my brother making fun of me! ”
"Hahaha, rest assured, Polux, as long as I'm alive, I won't let strange men approach my most precious sister - but if anything happens to me...... Maybe Pollux can find the man who can capture Ling's heart and deserve to entrust you to him. ”
"Please don't say such unlucky words, Brother Kastor, we are twins who will never be separated, and will be together forever until eternity."
What Pollux never expected at the time was that now Kastor would really die first, and there was a man who literally captured her heart......
However, love shouldn't be like this!
Before Pollux could react, she suddenly felt her whole body weak, as if something was converging from her limbs along the blood vessels to the part of her heart.
"Give it all to me."
As Red pulled his hand out of Porux's chest, wisps of black mist-like substance were separated from the demigod's heart.
"What the hell is this ......"
"It's the Theos legacy you absorbed, or the Olympus Divine Nanoparticles, but it's already been corrupted by other things, which of course can't heal your body."
Red stared at the black nanoparticles he had extracted with his delicate version of Soullust's hand, and as the omega rays in his eyes flickered again, the tainted Teos legacy was wiped out entirely.
However, these are just leftovers.
Red turned his head to look at the temple they had just been in, and although the temple had stopped shaking since they had left and seemed calm now, Red knew that the real enemy was here.
"Francis, Pollux will ask you, but don't touch her directly just to be safe."
With these words, Red lifted the blade of blood and rushed towards the temple at high speed like a cannonball.
At the same time, there was an explosion in the temple, and a huge black figure crashed directly towards Red.
Bang!
Red collided head-on with the figure, causing an extremely violent explosion, creating a crater in the ground with a radius of more than fifty meters, and the shockwave spread throughout the island.
If it weren't for the fact that the humans on the island were all enhanced by Olympus' technology, perhaps the aftermath of this shock alone would have been enough to kill all the creatures on the island.
"!!Woohoo whoop whoaw whoaw whoo whoaw whoa
A deafening roar rang out, and in front of Red was a burly monster that was wild as a beast, but showed no signs of life.
But Red still recognized him right away.
"See you again, Hercules—no, you're meeting Persona for the first time, right?"
In the real body of the god of the sea Poseidon's hull, Red had a brief confrontation with the Chaldean servant berserker Hercules, but at that time, Hercules had lost his mind due to madness and passivity, and was just a huge meat pile.
But the monster in front of him is obviously an existence of a different level.
Bang - bang!
I saw that the black strong giant in front of him was more than three meters wielding a huge stone axe, obviously his body looked a little bloated from the outside, but the speed at which he swung the axe was even faster than Red's Phantom Sword Dance!
What's even more terrifying is that each of his slashes is not thrown indiscriminately, but is precisely aimed at Red's fatal parts.
This is the martial art of Hercules, the most famous hero of ancient Greece, to shoot a hundred heads!
However, Red was also a battle-hardened warrior, and Hercules' attacks were blocked by him, and his eyes lit up bright red when he seized the gap.
Omega rays!
Buzz –
Hercules initially seemed to be trying to block the laser from Red's eye with his axe, but in fact he also blocked the stone axe in the path of the ray with quick speed - but the omega rays turned 90 degrees in a continuous 90-degree twist that defied the laws of physics, and instantly bypassed Hercules' weapon and hit him in the chest.
Bang!
Propelled by the Omega Rays, Hercules' body smashed into the ground like a meteorite, instantly shaking the entire island again.
However, although he repelled the other party, Red's expression looked a little more solemn than just now.
In the smoke and dust, a lump of mud slowly expanded, and then in a matter of seconds, it turned into the tall and burly figure of Hercules again—even a few points bigger than just now.
And on his black body, there are also a lot of vein-like lines that shimmer with dark red light.
Buzz –
Before the opponent's body could regenerate, Red used the Omega Ray once again.
But this time, Hercules stood motionless, not even in a blocking position, and after the omega rays hit his body, they did not produce any explosion or decomposition, just like a normal laser pointer.
It's a bit tricky now.
Red knows that Hercules, as the great hero of ancient Greece, is the strongest demigod with Zeus's blood, and has a great feat called the Twelve Trials, and because of this, he has a strong immortality ability that can be resurrected after being killed in battle, and every time he is killed, he will become resistant to the last trick that killed him.
However, as Hercules during the Heroic Age, this ability is actually easy to crack - since the output is high enough, it can knock out multiple lives in one go, so as long as the power is enough, Hercules is just a giant stake.
But now the black-light corpse Hercules in front of him is obviously different.
Since the Olympian gods of this world are all mechanical life, Hercules, as the bloodline of Zeus, of course, also has a mechanical part, coupled with his rumored strong body and regenerative ability, it is easy to think that the concentration of special nanoparticles in his body may be extremely abnormally rich, and he also has the ability to adapt to evolution.
After his death, the human part was naturally dusted to dust, but the mechanical part was recovered in this temple as the legacy of Theos for future generations - the island is called Hercules, which is naturally the burial place of this great hero.
But in other words, these nanoparticles can be regarded as the "corpse" of Hercules, which also gives the Black Light Ring an opportunity.
Just as no matter the planet, the virus, or even the abstract formula can become a Green Lantern, nanoparticles can also become the object of the possession of the Black Lantern Ring, as for Hercules, who was "resurrected" because of this, in addition to not having the personality and reason of the original hero, not only perfectly reproduces his body and combat skills, but even has his ability as a heroic spirit.
Moreover, the ability of this "Twelve Trials" has even been further strengthened because of the Black Light Ring.
With the power of the Omega Ray, he should have knocked out all twelve lives of Hercules with just one shot, and he might even owe him a hundred or dozens of lives.
If it's just Hercules, it's estimated that both the great hero and the Berserker who was a servant would be killed in an instant.
However, here is the Black Lantern Corpse, which can be conceptually resurrected with the Black Light Ring alone.
"Woohoo Woo !!!!"
Hercules charged directly at Red's Omega Ray, and it seems true that after being killed once, he will become resistant to the same trick.
In that case......
"Soul Lust Demon Slash!"
Red raised his hand, as if trying to repeat the same trick against Kastor, but before the vortex of red light energy shattered Hercules, the monster-like burly figure rushed in front of Red, and raised his axe and swung it hard.
Swish!
Red's body was split in two from his abdomen, and in the next second, Hercules raised his foot and kicked hard, and Red flew upside down like a cannonball.
"Red!"
Although Drake exclaimed worriedly, she still remembered the instructions Red gave her, using red light energy to protect herself and Porux, and did not move half a minute.
"The ...... you can't win"
Pollux looked desperately at Hercules, the black-lamped corpse whose body seemed to be expanding endlessly, and she could feel that Red's attack just now not only did not hurt him, but also seemed to make him a little stronger.
"You must run away quickly, and you can't let the core of the Father Zeus fall into his hands—"
"There's no need for that."
But at that moment, Red's calm voice rang out, and he slowly stood up from the ground, and the lower half of his body that had just been cut off was completely restored in just a few seconds.
"I've already won."
As soon as Red's words fell, Hercules, the black light corpse, suddenly stopped moving, and his body began to tremble violently.
In his chest, the muscles began to twist slowly, first as a small whirlpool, and then as swirling lines began to spread throughout his body.
"Your body evolves based on the last attack, right...... But this kind of evolution, which has no end and no control, is honestly the easiest to solve. ”
Although Red's Soul Lust Demon Slash just now did not directly destroy Hercules, his real purpose was to empty this skill.
Or rather, the goal of his skill was not Hercules in the first place.
It's the space in front of you.
Using his strong ability to absorb space, he managed to create an ultra-tiny black hole in front of him, which, although it only lasted for a few seconds, was undoubtedly a real black hole.
And Hercules took the initiative to charge, and the black hole crushed his heart in an instant. Of course, in the next second, he immediately used the power of the Black Lantern Ring to recover.
But here's the problem......
How do you develop resistance to black holes?
