Engulf.

Hunger.

And......

Macado.

？！

The stars shattered, Hades pressed between his fingers, the black mist moved with his thoughts, enveloping the top of the mountain, and in the other hand, the lava heart groaned, and the cracks in the earth breathed together,

He remembered his past in astonishment, horrified and terrified of his own abnormality.

Even if he was still hungry.

Hades felt his blood throb and blaze, he might have just eaten a small portion of the Burner in the illusion.

This part of the power burned him, making him subconsciously angry.

Realizing this, Hades was speechless, his expression cold as a sculpture.

In a trance, he heard the fraudsters scolding and begging for mercy, and the star god even seemed to curse Machado—

In the shackled darkness, the deceitster struggled to escape, but the gravitational pull of Hades gripped him violently, making it impossible for him to hide from illusions and other dimensions.

…… Solve this trouble first, as soon as possible, immediately, immediately...... Hades breathed black gas.

No...... Makado ...... No, no, no...... Magnus ......

Let Him ...... This guy ...... Pay the price for your actions.

"Why are you so obsessed with getting me to eat?"

Hades asked with a radio wave, his calm face reminding the fraudster of the Void Dragon's goddamn creature - the same expressionlessness.

The fraudster smiled, which meant that there was still talk, and he forced his dissatisfaction and anger to try to signal the peace talks—but was directly interrupted by Hades.

"I recognize you,"

Darkness welled up in Hades' eyes, and silver teardrops in his metal eyes,

“…… Deceiver. ”

Hades wearily transmitted the message with his consciousness, and at the same time, the fraudster felt the darkness around him gather violently, and he tried to communicate urgently,

[But—]

"Shhhh …… Did you know,"

The Immortal interrupted the deceit, and slowly but clearly imprinted his will into the deceit's mind,

"In the face of riddlers like you, I usually beat them up and kill them directly."

？！

The next moment, the darkness is over!

……………………

The world was darkened by the cracked earth, the poisonous gas rising from the cracks lapping against the armor, and only the semi-solidified magma spit out from the cracks illuminated the wilderness.

Buz looked up, surrounded by sages from Faos, red-robed running from his side to the Holy Land in ecstasy, robes scraping against his armor as he stared incredulously at the black mist-shrouded mountaintop.

Behind him, there were the seven and eight groups of the sons of the Hades who were waiting for them, but now, all the Hades subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the miracle in front of them.

After landing on the earth, discipline was quietly broken, and no one knew what to do with such a scene, and they were infected by astonishment and nervousness...... Helpless.

At the top of the mountain, darkness was silently watching the crowd.

Its edges are smooth, like a calm ocean.

The mechanical sages reveled.

Fortunately, Hades' training is qualified, so that these warriors will not subconsciously tremble, or......

Kneel.

Booz swallowed, it was a special situation that Kalas had never told him to do, and he wasn't sure what was going on - but he was ready.

If there is the slightest mistake in his observation of the Immortal, Buzz will not hesitate to activate the extermination order.

…… However, the current scene is ...... He was standing on a planet that had been torn apart and closed by a great force, and was the extinction order really effective against the creature?

In other words, can that kind of existence really be called a living thing?

Maybe he's not a creature, but he's still their father.

Buzzy was amused by his sudden whimsy, which caused him to withdraw himself from the tremor of his nature, and he forced his gaze to look away, not at the Great Being, but at the side.

At least the darkness was still silent, and it didn't seem to change anytime soon.

This situation ...... Aside from the large number of extermination orders, there was not much human intervention alone, and Buzz recalled the scene when he faced the Scarlet Alpha...... He was already relieved.

Buz was silent, he made a standby gesture to the seven groups of eight, and walked to the side, not far away, the poor, scarred, detached son of Hades was half-kneeling, his wounds had long since been eroded by the sulfur gas, revealing a miserable white color.

Realizing that Buzz was coming towards him, Blackser flinched for a moment, and he quietly hid the Magnus Stone.

"Quiet."

Blake whispered.

"Are you alright, Blake?"

Buzz said, and turned back with some amusement, as Cober from Group Eight gave him instructions to go with him, and Booz agreed.

Urgent footsteps sounded, and a bearded man who was staring at the top of the dark mountain and running fast in small steps came over, and when he saw Cober coming, Blake paused.

"Moderately wounded, Captain."

Blake replied sullenly, and after confirming that Blake was conscious and not taken away by consciousness, Blake immediately spoke,

"Do you know about the Father of Genes, Blake Butcher?"

The warrior in greenskin-style armor gritted his teeth, as if the next words would cost him a lot of determination,

"The state of Hades...... Wrong. ”

Blake lowered his voice, and Buz heard Cobb gasp behind him, Buzz was not surprised, he reconfirmed that the darkness on the top of the mountain had not changed, and that the sages had just stopped and began to salute, and had no intention of continuing on.

"Isn't it moody?"

Booz asked as casually as he could, "Maybe you're still hungry for psionic powers?" ”

At the mention of the word "psionics," Buzz keenly noticed a subtle change in Blake's expression.

Something really wasn't right......

Blake didn't answer Booz directly, which further confirmed Booz's point...... Things are going for the worst, and Booz is no surprise to him.

This is entirely in line with Callas's warning to him.

The darkness still didn't respond.

Buz took the scythe from his back, and the scythe flashed a dim light in his hand, a promised signal, even if the bastards were still staring at the darkness without blinking...... But the weapons in their hands were clearly ready.

Blankly, Buzz heard the faint wheezing of the communication channel.

I don't know if being killed by the father of genes just after meeting is an honor or a shame for them.

Booz bent over and tried to pull Blake up, but Blake refused, and the butcher seemed to realize what they were trying to do, and he shook his head in surprise,

"He's just...... He's just a little ...... It's not normal,"

Blake stumbled and said,

"Hades loves us, and this is... Can be the enemy's conspiracy. ”

"We can try to wake him up...... The Death Guard was also ...... As long as a part of the sacrifice ......"

Buzbi made a silent gesture, and he shook his head flatly,

"Those are rumors, Blake,"

There was a slight sadness in his voice, "Actually, I've seen the coroner's report, and it is rumored that the time of death of Morag's predecessor, who prevented the Pale Lord, was in the middle of that calamity. ”

"I don't know the details, but the truth of the matter is that the Soulless troops arrived, wounded the Pale Lord at a terrible cost, and banished him."

"It's not the Death Guard and the rumored Morag in the Children of Hades uniting the psionics to awaken the Pale Lord."

Booz tried to pull Blake up again,

"Besides, even if the rumors are true, where do you go to find psykers?"

Blake rejected Buzz again with a pale face, seeing this, Buzz was no longer persistent, he straightened up, thinking about the next war.

There's not much they can do, they'll do their best to record the state of the Immortal, wound him as much as they can, and send the message to the Death Guard.

Sending the son of Hades over, Kalas had two thoughts.

First, Hades and the Son of Hades have a natural resonance, which will make it easier for Buzz to judge, and maybe make the supposed monster sink into consternation for a moment.

If Hades still has humanity, then it is the best ending.

Second ...... If Hades has fallen...... Then for Callas, for the Death Guard, the son of Hades with the blood of Hades is no longer credible!

Their last purpose was to stop the Immortal.

The extermination order had been prepared, and the biggest constraint on the mad and pious sages was to keep them from interfering in the rest of the battle—it was hard to know which side the gang would help.

Seeing that Buzz had given up on Blake, Cobb behind him looked at the air and nervously went to pull Blake to get up.

"Oh, don't be attached, our genetic father...... Isn't that normal? ”

Cobb and Blake whispered nervously,

"He's a great man, although I don't know why he ......"

Blake raised his voice, "Maybe we misunderstood, why are we hostile to him?" Warband Chief, he's never been hostile to me, and we should-"

His voice abruptly stopped in the wind.

The lonely Black Sea moved.

Everyone's eyes subconsciously converged, as if staring at a slowly falling meteor.

Split in two, the red robes of the mechanical sages standing in separate teams fluttered, this was a standing salute, and each sage held a piece of parchment hanging to the ground, on which was all the research and development of Faos in the past ten thousand years.

In the bleak wind, the parchment rattled.

This is the representative of Faos worthy of the Ome Messiah.

At the front of the queue, Kirkland, who stood stiffly in place with nothing in his hands, was more like he was simply frozen than standing in courtesy.

Booz swallowed.

The darkness fluctuated and quickly dispersed like fireworks, the darkness was not a pure entity, and in an instant, Buzz saw an arc of electricity like a vein growing in the darkness—

The figure was reflected in his dark eyes.

He was reflected in their eyes.

Hades.

The god surrounded by lightning, metal, flame, and darkness.

The withered gold silk vanished in his left hand, and the heart of lava that was beating hot was restrained by his right hand.

……

……

Buzz's heart was beating slowly, and his thoughts might have stalled for a moment.

He felt some kind of soul tremble from a heavy blow, he felt dizzy, but he still stood still, he heard the clatter of his armor, the sages had already knelt down, and then the sons of Hades, they knelt one by one.

But Buzz was convinced that it was a strong sense of oppression and surrender, and if it weren't for the fact that he had confronted more than one mutinous primordial agent, perhaps Booz would have been unarmed by now.

In the afterglow, Buzz caught a glimpse of the sons of Hades, at least half-kneeling, fucking, guarding their last dignity, right, a bunch of little bastards.

Buzz thought in a suffocating moment...... And the old bastard, Kalas asked him to fight this thing?

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, looking into Hades' face and trying to discern something - Karas, you old bastard of TM!

He could have died quietly and peacefully on top of Macurag! Maybe I'll see Killiman's soul again before I die!

However, at this moment, Buz saw the black eyes of the Immortal King who were out of focus.

And then - Hades moved.

Hades opened his mouth and screamed hoarsely, but he only coughed up blood, and Hades stumbled down the mountain, and he almost fell, almost embarrassed, rolling and climbing.

He sped away from the top of the mountain.

People just froze in place, at a loss, frightened and dazed.

Hades coughed violently, and mouthfuls of liquid came out of his mouth - some blood, some not, more like half-dried lava.

Finally, in the wind, they heard Hades' first pronunciation,

"Horse—"

Magnus ?!!!!

Hades ran straight in the direction of Blake, and he ran and retched as he could, as if he wanted to vomit out his internal organs.

"Magnus wasn't eaten by me, was it?!! Magnus!!! ”

Hades' terrible cry tore through the silence.

As if echoing the cry of the Immortal King, a scream came from Blake's body, and a crimson light lit up.

[Don't come here! Turn off your black domain!!! 】

Bouz's expression seemed to burst.

Oh.

Booz thought slowly, Blake had hidden a hand from him.

"Great, Magnus, you're not dead!! That's great! It's great – I haven't fallen to that point!! Magnus!! That's great! ”

The expression on Hades' face could almost be called relieved, and the moment he heard Magnus shout, he almost fell again, which slowed him down.

Hades hurried past the ranks of the sages, and he said apologetically,

"Sorry, please wait a minute."

"And-"

Hades casually handed the compressed and imprisoned Burning Fragment in his hand to the emaciated natural man sage at the head,

"Help me keep it for now."

Kirkland trembled in disbelief, he almost fainted, and the sage shook and nearly fell from the god of fire handed over to him by the Holy Mountain.

"Magnus—"

"Are you okay?! And Blake!! ”

[Don't you come here yet!! 】

The crimson giant rose, and Buzz stiffened his head, and in front of Blake, he saw the phantom of Magnus, the renegade formal,

Booz looked down, staring at Blake, who had already looked away,

Hades took a deep breath and slammed the brakes, "Okay, I'm not going to go over first!" ”

He still felt the hunger and the throbbing that was almost out of control, and the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Hades stretched out a hand and wiped it on the side of his mouth, and the cold lower half of the metal mask appeared, and the place of the mouth was sewn with a metal chain.

Hades calmed down, Magnus was alive, and the second priority had been confirmed,

"I don't eat you."

Hades said, opening his legs and cautiously approaching the Sons of Hades, who were stunned in place.

It was only at this moment that Hades had no time to care about anything else, and his eyes subconsciously looked at Buz, who saw a face similar to him, and Buz was also looking at him.

This is...... Son of Hades.

Hades's pace slowed down by half a beat, and before he could look away, he asked,

"Blake, are you okay?"
