Chapter 66: The True Meaning of Strength
"Sneer" Raphael's body writhed in the sky, and hot steam continued to spew out from the joints of his armor.
Combined with the raging flames on his body, he was like an incarnation god, and even Lucifer's dark origin could not swallow the light on Raphael's body.
Lucifer swung his black sword and slashed as he cursed inwardly, "Damn steam, damn steam again." ”
The scene in front of him couldn't help but remind Lucifer of the grave keeper who was dying many years ago.
After emitting the "King's Sigh" that shook the plane, the withered body regained its youthful vitality, and the young founder was like a god, leading his mechanical army to attack the sacred realm guarded by the gods, and in the overwhelming steam, recaptured the sacred realm, sealing all the gods and demons.
At that time, it was Lucifer who first felt the horror of "steam".
Before that, he had never imagined that ordinary beings on the earth could use "steam" to create such terrifying power.
Now, once again, he is confronted with the steam that has turned decay into magic.
The special armor on Raphael's body emitted steam seems to contain strange magical power, which can increase Raphael's strength, allowing Raphael to fight against the power of the dark source.
In fact, as a high god, Lucifer didn't know that the steam that spewed out and rose was the high heat generated by the operation of the mechanical device in Raphael's armor, and when it cooled down and converted the high heat into energy, the liquid vaporized by the high heat during the condensation process, and the steam itself was almost lethal.
However, the steam emitted from Raphael's armor, which was different from the steam they encountered in Lucifer before.
Lucius followed the old alchemist, although he could not perform magic and alchemy, but he had studied the knowledge of magic and alchemy very thoroughly.
Therefore, he not only quickly grasped the true meaning of the mechanical source core, but also used some of his magic and alchemy ideas.
Raphael's mechanical armor was given a unique magic circuit, so that the vapor after the condensate vaporized could be reused with the help of the magic that passed through the magic circuit, creating a unique protective barrier.
Raphael, who was manipulating the mechanical armor, was not aware of Lucius's unique transformation in the first place.
It wasn't until the fierce battle with Lucifer that he gradually discovered the difference in the mechanical armor on his body.
The unique magic circuit not only ensures that Raphael can continue to cast magic, but also makes good use of the originally discarded steam.
Unlike other Heroic Spirits, Raphael had tried the Creator's mechanical armor as early as the Sanctuary Mythological Era, so he was able to quickly get his hands on the armor given by Lucius.
At the same time, after discovering the special magic circuit that Lucius had broken through, he couldn't help but admire in his heart: "The descendant of this founder is really good, and he can actually create this unique magic circuit, it seems that he will definitely be able to reproduce, or even surpass the glory that the founder once created." ”
With the help of a unique magic circuit, Raphael became more and more courageous, and soon achieved a near-overwhelming advantage.
Under Raphael's strong attack, Lucifer could only retreat again and again, passively using the dark source to protect himself and resist the erosion of the holy flames around Raphael.
Seeing that Raphael had regained the upper hand, Lucifer was suppressed and retreated, and Michael's expression became extremely solemn.
As a companion who joined hands with Lucifer and broke into the resting place at the behest of God the Father and the Lord of Darkness, Michael did not want to see Lucifer defeated, after all, if Lucifer was defeated, Michael thought that he would not be able to support the next battle alone, and he was not sure that he would not be able to prevent Lucius from getting a resting place.
Finally, Raphael mastered the use of magic circuits, using the cracks in his armor to spew steam, blessing the holy flame on the spewing steam, and using the majestic steam that gushed out, the holy flame burned the dark source around Lucifer.
Frightened by the loss of the protection of the Dark Origin, Lucifer quickly swung his black blade to stop Raphael.
However, Lucifer, who had lost his dark origin, could not resist the scepter wrapped in Raphael's holy flame.
"Bang" The golden cane opened the black sword and slammed it straight into Lucifer's chest, while Raphael's left hand waved lightly, using the knuckles of his palm to spew steam to carry the blazing flame, and threw it at Lucifer immediately after the cane.
Anyone could tell that Raphael wanted to break through Lucifer's defenses with his staff and incinerate the fallen angels with holy flames.
If Raphael is allowed to succeed, I am afraid that even if Lucifer does not die, he will be seriously injured and lose the ability to fight again.
However, Raphael's staff had just broken through Lucifer's defenses when the Holy Flame Ball came out of his hand, and suddenly a light fell from the sky.
A holy barrier stood in Lucifer's way, blocking Raphael's staff and the orb.
Seeing the appearance of the Holy Light Barrier, Raphael did not continue to attack, but slowly retreated backwards.
Standing not far away, gazing at Lucifer and Michael, a sarcastic smile on his face.
"I really can't imagine that one day the holy light will protect the devil in the darkness. ”
Hearing Raphael's words, the creatures and heroic spirits inside and outside the Valhalla Valley all raised their heads to look at Lucifer and Michael, and the scene in front of them really seemed extremely ironic, I am afraid that even the gods who represent light and darkness respectively never thought that one day there would be such an ironic scene.
Lucifer lowered his head and did not respond to Raphael's ridicule, or as a loser, he did not have the face to respond.
Naturally, Michael did not respond, knowing that his actions were contrary to the teachings preached by the gods in the world.
The scene fell silent for a moment, and the Valley of Valhalla, the resting place, was temporarily peaceful.
After a long time, Lucius spoke again to break the peace: "The so-called extreme must be opposed, the opposite of light is darkness, the opposite of darkness is light, when the light goes to the extreme, it will show darkness, and the end of darkness will also be light, hehe, in fact, the father of the gods represented by light, and the main god of darkness, are just two sides one." ”
As he spoke, Lucius raised his hands, but saw that the sun was shining in one of his palms, and in the palm of the other was endless darkness.
Seeing Lucius' hands evolve alternating between light and darkness, Michael and Lucifer's faces became unusually pale.
The true meaning of what Lecius said was not clear even to Lucifer and Michael before, even if the two had served by the Father's side, they had never discovered that the Father and the Lord of Darkness would be two sides of one.
Looking at the sky and seeing the incredible looks of Michael and Lucifer, Lucius smiled and said, "Why?
Lucifer thought of how he had turned his back on the Father and gone through all kinds of pain to join the Lord God of darkness.
Some roared unacceptably: "Impossible, impossible, how can darkness and light be one?"
Staring at Lucifer's hideous roar, Lucius always seemed calm.
He just raised his head and said to Raphael, "Raphael, let them see the reality." ”
As soon as Lucius's words fell, the holy flame on Raphael's body disappeared in an instant, replaced by a dark flame.
The original breath of life on Raphael's body instantly turned into the breath of death at this moment.
Before everyone could wake up from the shock, Raphael's aura changed again, but he saw that his body was divided into two, the aura of light and holiness coexisted with the aura of darkness and depravity, and he showed two faces of angel and devil at the same time.
As Raphael evolved, Lecius's voice sounded again: "The gods and the devil are just the heights reached when the power reaches a certain peak and breaks through the extreme, the other side of the gods is the devil, light or darkness, but they are two different attributes of power." ”
Lucius's exposition can be said to have shocked everyone present, whether it is those gods and demons, or the creatures who follow the other three card kings, it can be said that they have benefited a lot.
"Why? Why do you tell the true meaning of power?"
After listening for a long time, Michael couldn't help but raise the doubts in his heart.
In response to Michael's question, Lucius smiled and said, "Hehe, the true meaning of power should not be in the hands of one person, the true meaning can only be called 'true meaning' when more living beings know it and can guide them to explore and implement it, which is also the true function of the Sanctuary Being." ”
"Sure enough, you are really the same as the original founder, you are all crazy people who want to do it for others, but not for yourself, even if one day your own qiē will be ruined by what you give to others, you don't care. ”
Michael's words caused everyone present to fall into deep thought, and almost all of them agreed with him in their hearts.
The next moment, Michael suddenly asked, "So, what do you want?
Michael's question is not unsharp, it can be said that he is directly interrogating Lecius's soul, trying to fundamentally break the purity of Lecius's heart, so that his now almost immaculate soul can open a gap and make it no longer pure.
The King of Hearts, who was kneeling in front of Valhalla's Valley, couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he heard Michael's question.
He whispered to the demon god Baal beside him: "I really can't imagine that Michael, who is the archangel, would use this method to confuse people's minds and minds, wanting to fundamentally destroy the purity of Lecius's heart. ”
Hearing the words of the King of Hearts beside him, Baal also whispered: "The gods, after all, are just playing with people's hearts. ”
"Baal, if you make a move, are you sure you can defeat Michael and Lucifer?"
Baal obviously didn't expect the King of Hearts to ask him such a question, he was stunned for a moment, and then he carefully considered it before saying, "King, if they don't have the help of the Father, I should be able to fight with them, and if the Father blesses them, I will not be able to fight them." ”
"Hmm......" the King of Hearts muttered when he heard this, "It seems that it is not appropriate to start a war with the gods and demons for the time being, so let Lucius solve it." ”
With that, the magic carpet behind the King of Hearts soared, instantly enveloping him and Baal, and as the magic carpet continued to shrink, finally the King of Hearts and Baal disappeared from the Valley of Valhalla, the resting place.
Seeing the King of Hearts and Baal leaving, Beluti's eyes showed a hint of regret.
At the same time, Lecius raised his head to meet Michael's questioning gaze, a smile on his face all the time.
Hong Sheng replied to Michael's question, "I want to? I want everyone to be free." ”
