Chapter 254: The Nature of Ability
Heavy armament pierced the air, and the storm blew up the neatly arranged tables and chairs like feathers, and the target of such a powerful blow was only a little girl about ten years old.
She raised her white and tender right hand, and it collided with the edge of the cross-shaped sword and spear.
The collision between flesh and steel erupted with a terrifying roar, as if a high explosive had been detonated in the room, and an invisible shockwave swept around, leveling the classroom where the two had been before.
In the white void of space, throbbing crimson flames swirled around Lilith's arms until they set her entire body on fire, an endless stream of light and heat destroying all traces of her existence.
But the next moment, as if going back in time, the phantom appeared in front of Li Wu again, condensed into the new president of the Guiyi Society.
Is it a doppelganger, or is it simply immortality?
In the past, he had always been on the side of the superior side of the intelligence war, but now he was facing an enemy whose real name he could not see for the first time.
"How can you talk about it halfway through and suddenly do it?"
She dusted off her clothes and patted away the dust that wasn't there.
"I'm sorry.,I just heard that my childhood sweetheart seems to have split into two.,I'm so surprised that I want to cut people.。
The second attack had already leapfrogged the speed of the sound and reached her.
He originally thought that Lilith in front of him was the demon king who attacked the light.
However, assuming that what she said was true, there was still a lost light in the other world, and now that she had returned to the original world, she still had some kind of hostility towards the "light that did not pass through" here, and even mixed into this incident-
Where will the light, which has been transferred like him, now?
Just a little thought about the possible outcomes raises the urge to rush over immediately.
The tip of the spear that lingered around the true red flame pierced the girl's chest like a spinning drill, tearing it in two with ferocity, and then without hesitation, it attacked the next phantom where it spawned.
Regardless of the mechanic of the enemy's "resurrection", let's do a few hundred repeated experiments and observe it.
Although he was frequently eliminated and reborn, the other party was still talking intermittently, and this kind of villain's unique chattering spirit made Li Wu, who was in a hostile position, couldn't help but feel admiration.
"At least listen to me talk about the second consciousness that I've been involved in, right?"
Li Wu's attack did not stop, and the serial stabbing of Ascalon once again turned the enemy's flesh into a torch in the form of a human.
As Lilith had just said, the phenomenon of light crossing due to the collision of two worlds had been modified into an ordinary car accident in the proper continuation of history, and he naturally remembered the accident that caused her to be two weeks late for school.
Then, the identity of another unlucky pond fish that was affected is naturally about to come out.
Looking back now, the time when he obtained this real name-like ability to see through was also at the same time as Hikari had a car accident.
"How do you think your abilities come from?"
As if he could see what he was thinking, Lilith's lower body was burning to ashes, but the head hanging in the air still smiled and spoke, "Just like those who have experienced the edge of life and death, and those who have returned from death have a small chance of being able to see spirits and perceive things that were originally invisible; There is also an astronomical possibility that you will see the workings of the world through the torn exterior of the world, but that information is too difficult for the human brain to understand, so it is reduced to a manifestation. ”
The sword and spear were raised upward, throwing the remaining head into the air, and Li Wu switched to a position of holding the gun in one hand, holding the imaginary hilt of the sword with his free hand.
The cyan flames were drawn from the air with the roar of the black dragon, and the sword of Kurigara was drawn out of thin air, slashing through the falling head from the bottom up, splitting it in two.
After the last of the residues burned out, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
"That sword is useless to me, although I don't have your talent, but I can still do small tricks like interfering with the principles of the world and hiding my own essence - otherwise how can I be embarrassed to claim to be the strongest?"
Lilith said as a matter of course, "A special situation like yours would never have arisen under normal circumstances, but when the world consciousness is about to lose itself, it has become a resource that can be used. ”
This time, instead of calmly facing the attack, she appeared in another position in the pure white space in an instant.
"Shiratori's ability ......"
But she is far more proficient in using it than she is.
"Works, right? The Song Project itself is just a façade, and the fundamental purpose is only to cultivate the only ability I need with the qualifications of a fallen god, and the other superpowers derived from it are just used to disguise her existence. ”
Lilith answered his previous question by the way, "The so-called best way to hide a drop of water is to hide it in the sea, I actually warned the light, the light over there." ”
"What do you mean by resources that can be used?"
After repeating the attack hundreds of times, Li Wu already had some guesses about her resurrection, but it also took a process of charging energy to implement his conjecture, and he simply pretended to be very interested in the conversation just now.
"To put it simply, it's the appointed savior."
Lilith spread her hands out, revealing a pattern that depicted different scenes like a mural.
"For example, if someone kills an evil dragon by chance and bathes in its blood, it takes hundreds of years of recitation for this story to be turned into a cultural symbol to accumulate enough power to turn the person into a heroic spirit, but by looking directly at the world, you can directly draw power from this ritual act across thousands of years of history."
"That's why I met youkai in the first place."
"It's not a monster or something else, rebel against demons, slay dragons, defeat powers, and finally cross myths...... Most people will never encounter an event that erupts around you in their lifetime, just like a game plan that carefully designed monsters from level 1 to level 100 for players, just to quickly pile up your experience points. ”
"Purpose? I don't think I have the means to fix the so-called world right now. ”
Li Wu really couldn't figure out what kind of expectations the world consciousness placed on him.
"It's not meant to be fixed right away."
For the first time, Lilith let out a malicious smile, "Remember our previous metaphor of the cistern? Now that the reservoir is about to crack due to poor management, the first reaction must be to change to a model that is strong enough, and at the same time reduce the excess water, and then slowly improve the management, right? ”
The picture in her hand was frozen into a clear appearance, there were countless youkai wailing in the karmic fire, girls dressed similar to Hoshikawa Aoi were pierced by the sword body of the black dragon, the vampire monster that transformed into a giant dragon was beheaded by the big sword, the superpowers and the people who exercised spells with blurred faces were reduced to minced flesh under the giant stone pillars that fell from the sky, and the gods who returned to the moon were pushed into the barren cosmic void......
"Classmate Li Wu, why are you able to fight all the way to the present even though you were originally an ordinary person, why can you see words on other people's heads, and why do you encounter supernatural events so frequently...... There's only one answer—"
"You are a prop used by the world consciousness to recover excess power, a cleaning weapon that uses the daily world as a baseline to eradicate anomalies and kill all gods and Buddhas, and the final trial that will descend regardless of people and gods in the future!"
All the images are frozen in mirrors reflecting human figures, and Li Wu finally sees what he has gained after defeating the gods.
"In the world of Rubicon, which was also injured by the impact, something like you must have been born, but it was accidentally stopped by a visitor from outside the world before it became strong enough."
Lilith happily stated the truth, "You are the Demon King." ”
"What, it can't be—do you think I'll say that?"
On the pure white earth, which was empty except for the two of them, huge stone pillars that should not exist here were raised, and a complex pattern was constructed around the two of them.
Although what she said did sound incredible, and it could be compared with Susanoo's words, even if it was true, it wouldn't affect what he was going to do now.
"Open the way to the light, or I'll root you out now, no matter what the future holds."
Li Wu ignited the flame of anger and pressed it into his chest.
As if the engine had been started, the blood boiled and accelerated through the body, and red steam gushed out from the surface of the skin, turning the upper half of the body into ashes.
The flames poured bronze patterns on the surface of the body, and under the enhanced effect of Stonehenge, the power was advancing to a higher place, as if the mass of the dragon was stuffed into the human body, almost expanding and roaring.
He recalls seeing the grand web for a moment.
With words as nodes, infinite power is surging in them, and if contact with it is the real effect of ability, then all he can use now is a fraction of it.
The conversation with Lilith also brought him great inspiration.
After overcoming the three seals with the Brave, the completion of the [Sage], which he held before, had also risen rapidly, and this time, Li Wu seemed to be able to see the whole process of using the "story" he experienced as a ritual to intercept power from the world.
Just as a blind man has regained his sight, when his perception changes, his vision becomes completely different.
A faint roar of thunder resounded in Stonehenge, reminiscent of the white-gold glow of the stars emerging from above, condensing into a spear-like weapon.
Brionac - Known as this in popular subcultures, but not mentioned in the original mythological texts, the magic spear of Luger, the god of light and the sun in Celtic mythology.
As he had speculated, the power of the Sun's godhead was gained after the completion of the Sage's completion.
"I haven't laid out the plan around you yet, so it's too ungraceful to interrupt now, right?"
Lilith screamed and made a series of spatial jumps, dodging the lightning released from the spear suspended in the air.
"Who cares about you."
In the future, will he become a demon who does not recognize his six relatives and shouts "superpowers should be killed" every day...... Li Wu felt that there should not be such a deep bitterness and hatred at present, even if there was a possibility, it would not be too late to worry after the matter was over.
What I have to do now is to get to her.
He removed the ineffective Kurigara sword and took on his new weapon.
With one hand grasping the mythical spear of nature, which represents the natural power of the sun and thunder, and the sword and spear of the dragon in the other, he can now call himself a man with two brushes.
The blazing pillar of thunder spread out in all directions with it as the center of the circle, and the crimson flames followed the flickering figure as it rose and licked.
The tyrannical fire and thunder seemed to annihilate everything in the world to ashes, and even this empty pure white space was shaken, and black cracks appeared on the barren background.
I've tried to kill her hundreds of times and still can't see a solution to resurrect her, so let's try burning this strange place together.
"It's really violent, then I'm going to have to resist a little."
Lilith spun around in a dancing circle, leaving the thunder and flames behind.
Her body was coated with a layer of liquid metal-like brilliance that Li Wu was very familiar with, and she was replaced by a lolita-style dress and intricate ribbon suitable for little girls in the sound of construction machinery that was more like a Kamen Rider's transformation, and a top wizard hat appeared on her head.
"Magical girl Lilith, participate!"
The girl who lifted the corner of her skirt blinked her right eye, and hundreds of spherical luminous bodies lined up around her body.
"Magic Cannon: Centenet Sonata."
There were more than a hundred, and each of them surpassed the black pillar of light on the magic cannon released by Hoshikawa Aoi with all his might, weaving into a labyrinthine launch path, and then suddenly appeared in front of Li Wu under the twist and turn of the spatial ability.
Not only can he use Shiratori's superpowers, but now he has transformed into a magical girl, what is this guy's real ability?
While thinking, he has responded.
As if time had suddenly slowed down, the pillars of light containing vast magical power were reduced to hundreds of dots, densely distributed in front of his eyes.
The forked tip of the spear burst out with a total of five rays of light and lightning, destroying the dense artillery bombardment like a wandering dragon snake, and Li Wu raised his steel-like sword and spear with one hand, stabbing out with the swiftness of thunder.
As if it were a-for-tat confrontation with a black magic cannon, red rays of light pulsed and collided in it, and the flames and shockwaves generated by the conflict were so short that they seemed to occur at the same time, and they swept around, and even cracks appeared in the white ground, which should not have existed.
Before the flames of the explosion had dissipated, he leapt from the flames to the front of his enemy, smashing his spear into the ground like a club with thunder.
Then, the moment Lilith vanished, she threw her right hand sword and spear in a certain direction.
"Huh?"
As if to cooperate, the girl who suddenly appeared there raised her palm in surprise and slammed it into the tip of the spear that ignited the flames.
The sharp grinding sound of tormenting hearing rang out, and the beating spear was unbelievably grabbed by someone's hand, thrown away as if it had been thrown over the shoulder, and returned to its master's hand.
A trace of crimson blood flowed from the white palm.
