Chapter 495 360 Security Steward
The quicksand-like source of calamity in Victor's hand was slowly surging, as if it had its own consciousness, slowly spreading out in mid-air.
Just as the sand was about to wrap around Victor's body, Hermes' words behind him suddenly interrupted his movements.
"Are you...... Habika? ”
Victor frowned, turned to look back at Hermes:
"Who are you talking to?"
Victor was puzzled, Vega on his shoulder was falling into a deep sleep.
The pitch-black crow had long since been covered in a pale shade, and each feather had lost its original color.
Vega now looks like a normal bird, even a bit like a pigeon.
However, when Vega was not exposed, Hermes directly said Vega's divine name.
Habika, the god name of Vega.
Honestly, although Victor is used to careful planning and knows every detail like the back of his hand.
Even if it's something he's never been directly exposed to in the game, he can figure out the truth behind it if there's a clue.
He didn't know anything about Habika's identity.
He knew that Habika was an evil god because the god had appeared in the game's backstory.
"Wiped out half of the world's population."
That's one of the few evaluations that Habika has to offer.
After that, the god didn't even appear in the game again.
When Hermes pronounced Vega's name, Victor was intrigued for the first time.
As he thought, Victor's fingers moved slightly, and magic flowed through his fingertips.
A chain wound in the air, passing through everyone around them, trapping him and Hermes in the middle.
【Silence Lock】
This magic was enough to ensure that their conversation was not heard by the outside world, and only Victor and Hermes could hear each other's voices.
In the eyes of the outside world, the two seemed to be facing each other with their eyes, motionless.
From time to time, apparitions interact between the two of them as a way to confuse outsiders.
Sure enough, after Victor cast the magic, they both fell silent in the eyes of everyone.
The two looked at each other, their breaths steady, but the strong aura still made people feel that they were engaged in a fierce confrontation.
At the same time, Victor stared at Hermes closely, looked at his discolored eyes, and said:
"How much do you know about that name?"
At this moment, he even gave up absorbing the origin of the earth, and only wanted to get a clear answer from Hermes.
Hermes, however, seemed to have fallen into extreme madness.
His golden eyes trembled incessantly, as if struggling with recollection.
"...... Habika?"
Victor's eyes narrowed, his deep gaze fixed on Hermes in front of him, as if trying to penetrate his mind.
Is the memory confused?
Or is it disrupted?
Victor was a little helpless.
If that's the case, there's nothing he can do.
Because in simple terms, these "gods" who need to be believed, they are weak.
They became gods only because they gained more human faith.
A god like Hermes, in Victor's eyes, was nothing more than ......
"Lucky to get immortal god-level bOSS".
Of course, this is only in the eyes of Victor.
There is also a hierarchy between the gods, and the rank of Hermes is only the lowest god.
Compared to Vega, an evil god who can destroy half of the world's population with a single appearance, it is not worth mentioning at all.
If it was really just because of the leakage of Vega's divine power that affected Hermes, it was not impossible.
He simply stopped caring about Hermes in front of him, and casually dismantled the magic and summoned Kocot instead.
"Kocot."
Kocot, who heard the call, sat on the clouds and floated slowly.
"Hah...... What's going on? ”
Cocott yawned, looking lazy.
After all, she hadn't slept all night.
Although she was no longer as lazy as she once was, the fatigue of the lack of normal rest was evident in her.
After yawning, she looked down at Leah, who was lying on the clouds.
Leah had been sleeping on the soft clouds for nearly a dozen hours.
Looking at it this way, she always felt that the hypnotic magic she had unleashed on Leah had gone a little too far.
Victor looked at Cocott, who looked a little tired, and said to her in the most concise tone possible:
"Inform Heimhorn that Hermes can be taken away."
Now Hermes is no longer in the climate, and he will not even resist half a point when his mentality is broken.
Because he was not destined to win.
Next, the Council of Mages sealed Hermes as well as the Archmage of Darkness to ensure that the god would not be resurrected.
The existence of a god in the human world is dangerous after all, and the existence of a god is also contrary to Victor's purpose.
As long as there are no other gods in the world, it is only a matter of time before Vega regains his former divine power.
Hearing Victor's words, he waved his hand easily, and responded easily:
"Got it."
She patted the fluffy clouds beneath her, and was about to fly away to inform the other members of the Mage Council.
However, just as she was about to leave, she heard Hermes behind her, as if possessed by a spell, repeating the same sentence:
"Habika...... Habika ......"
"Habika...... Habika ......"
As a result, Kocot, who had planned to leave, stopped.
She turned her head to look at Hermes with a confused expression, her brow furrowed.
What's the situation?
Was this being beaten stupid by Victor?
But Victor doesn't seem to have done anything, huh?
"Is this a god? It doesn't look like it's very powerful. ”
Kocot couldn't help but mutter.
Just as she was about to inquire about Victor, she saw that he had turned and walked towards the remains of the Earth Calamity.
Seeing this, she immediately understood Victor's intentions, so she simply kept her mouth shut.
At this moment, Victor was stretching out his palm, facing the catastrophe of earth that was piling up like a mountain in front of him.
His pitch-black trench coat fluttered in the wind, and flying sand and dust rolled up around him.
The original black trench coat seemed to be covered with dust, and it was draped in a layer of earthy yellow lines.
The Origin Energy of the Earth Calamity slowly dissipated in Victor's palm, and finally turned into flying sand in the sky, surging behind him.
At this moment, he was preoccupied with absorbing the power of the Earth Calamity.
Erica, who was beside Victor, also saw this scene.
Erica watched Victor's actions, and gradually felt a kind of fascination and distraction.
Through what the eldest prince said just now, she clearly realized.
Once again, Professor Victor saved her.
And now, I see Victor's appearance full of elements.
His grace, his strength, seemed to attract her with every gesture.
It seemed destined to make her want to become one with Professor Victor.
This state made her very puzzled.
Erica could only stand quietly and watch as Victor gradually absorbed the origin of the Earth Calamity.
As quicksand melts into his trench coat, the trench coat behind it gradually takes on a yellow sand-like color.
It's like a dusty coat.
At the same time, with Victor's movements, the ground beneath his feet began to shake.
The rock shattered with a dull grinding sound, and the dust swirled beneath his feet.
The rocky remains of Ourano, like mountains, gradually disappeared into the soil.
It's like you're back under the earth, hidden again.
Calamity does not die.
Even if their origins are absorbed, the world will not be affected.
Otherwise, the sun should not have risen in the world when Victor first defeated the Fire Calamity.
When the rock remains turned into mountains, completely integrated into the soil, and disappeared, the sky was finally exposed to everyone's eyes.
Countless residents hugged each other and erupted in a burst of triumphant cheers.
Their faces were filled with joy and their eyes were filled with excitement.
But soon, their eyes turned to the outside world, and they saw that the royal capital beyond the square was in ruins.
At this moment, their mood fell from the climax to the bottom.
The ruins were almost cut off on all sides, and the entire king was almost razed to the ground, leaving the surroundings empty.
The excited heart felt like a basin of cold water had been poured on it, and the world around it became as desolate as ever.
The eldest prince also stood in the crowd, looking at this barren land, and sighed.
In the end, the royal capital was still destroyed.
Such a loss is no longer something that hundreds of millions of Geo can make up.
Even if such losses were eventually negotiated by the Chamber of Commerce of Victor and Casidra.
But the economic losses during the reconstruction of the royal capital were also huge.
But when such a thing happened, everyone had no choice but to accept it.
"Let's simply build some shelters and houses."
Just as the eldest prince was immersed in gloom and gloom, two voices full of worry suddenly sounded behind him.
"Victor!? Victor, what's wrong with you? ”
"Teach...... Professor!? Professor Victor! ”
Victor? What happened to Victor?
The moment he heard these voices, the eldest prince's heart was shocked.
He hurriedly looked back and immediately saw Erica and Cocott.
Their eyes looked at Victor at the same time, their eyes full of anxiety and worry.
What happened?
The eldest prince was confused, and hurriedly turned his gaze to Victor.
Then, his eyes widened.
I saw that Victor's figure began to become gradually illusory, as if he was about to melt into the air.
"Huh......?"
Even Victor sensed something was wrong.
He frowned, stretched out his right hand, and looked down at his palm.
The palm of the hand was gradually enveloped in a layer of phantoms.
Immediately after, a cloud of golden light slowly surrounded his body, making him feel his body gradually lighter.
At this moment, a few illusory lines of text appeared in front of his eyes:
[You are gaining the power of nature]
[You are gaining the status "Intermittent Unreal"]
Intermittent unreal?
Victor was a little confused.
But just as the golden light flowed, a dark shadow suddenly appeared.
It was like a sharp axe, slashed in the middle.
Zila-
Click-
There was a loud noise like electricity, and Victor's illusory body suddenly froze in place.
[Status "Intermittent Unreal" failed to be obtained]
["Ha**" detected - unknown error, retrieving database]
[Correct password]
[Habika virus detected - proceed to the next stage]
[Forced Removal Target——]
At that moment, Victor's form was as motionless as a dead robot.
"Dimension...... Victor? ”
Kocot half-stretched out his hand and shook it a few times in front of Victor in disbelief.
But Victor didn't react to this.
His body flickered with pitch-black phantoms, like electric currents, distorting his body.
What the hell is going on?
In the same way, Erica watched Victor's body gradually become more illusory, and a sense of foreboding rose in her heart.
It's like......
Professor Victor was on the verge of disappearing from her presence.
"No ......"
Erica held out a hand anxiously, her legs almost uncontrollably walking towards Victor.
She could only watch as Victor's body gradually became more illusory......
Until nothingness.
"Don't !!"
Erica rushed forward excitedly.
But her body passed directly through Victor.
At this time, Victor's body has become like a phantom.
However, Erica could only turn her head weakly, and her eyes trembled with disbelief.
As if she didn't believe in evil, she stretched out her hands and tried to touch Victor.
Finally, her hands reached into Victor's 'body'.
It's as if all you touch is air.
Her pupils trembled, and her eyes were filled with disbelief and sadness.
He watched as Victor's figure dissolved into nothing before his eyes, dissipating like air.
In the sky, a falling trench coat landed leisurely and fell into Erica's trembling hands.
She lowered her head and looked tremblingly at the trench coat that had fallen into her hands.
I could only kneel on the ground weakly, feeling the pain of disbelief.
Obviously, Victor saved her again and again.
And she couldn't do any redemption.
