[Thank you for the monthly ticket support!Today the wisdom teeth seem to be inflamed, swollen and painful, and the eggs hurt TT]

By now in the battle, both Gaia and Zero are close to their limits. Whether it is the consumption of energy or the trauma of the body, the two are almost indistinguishable. But in general, zero is relatively at a disadvantage, and the fundamental reason is in the form of life.

Zero still maintains his biological form, even though he has evolved several levels compared to ordinary creatures, but he still has not left the scope of living beings. One arm was broken, there were three empty energy stones left, and the consumption of physical energy fell to the bottom, and he was already wheezing violently just by standing like this. Looking at Gaia again, he seems to be worse than Zero, without a hand or a leg, but he has been completely energized, and the physical trauma has little effect on him.

If it weren't for Longinus, who attacked him, the damage would have been caused at the root and could not be repaired. Otherwise, as long as the energy is still there, Gaia will be able to regenerate in an infinite instant. But even at this moment, the energy aura on his body was still relatively strong. After all, in the energy form, he could absorb spatial energy faster than the zero creature form.

By this time, the two had already revealed their cards, and Zero's Longinus had shot all the bullets, and there was no longer any threat in Gaia's eyes.

"So, this battle can be over. Gaia said in a deep voice.

Zero took a long breath, straightened his body and said, "It'......s over?"

"Soon, you'll fall!"

Gaia's whole body lit up, and when he reached his worst, a blue sun rose in the space of the restaurant. Gaia turned into light, and mercury poured towards Zero! What a bundle of light, before he could even react to his consciousness, Gaia's only remaining hand had already plunged deep into Zero's chest. It wasn't until about half a second that Zero reacted. There was a burning scorching thing in his chest, which kept tearing open muscles and nerves, and finally touched the crystal nucleus that replaced the heart.

You could already feel the hard and unusually hard outer walls of the crystal nucleus, but under Gaia's fingers, the slightest bit of solidity didn't cause any obstacles. He put a face to Zero's ear and said, "See you again, Zero!"

Then push your fingers hard into the crystal nucleus!

Zero body shock, pupils dilated. But then an indifferent smile appeared on his face: "This is also what I want to say." ”

When Gaia didn't realize it, her chest hurt!

He looked down and saw that there was one more thing between himself and Zero. It was a short silver-white knife, and there was even an unusually gorgeous golden pattern painted on the surface of the knife. It stabbed deeply into Gaia's chest, and as the blade of the knife violently shook under Zero's special technique, finally the blade light flashed left and right, and it actually cut Gaia in two!

Gaia's hand was still in Zero's chest, and in this brief moment, he realized that he had slipped to the brink of death. Death was a new word for him, because Gaia never thought he would die. But now, he did feel the power of death.

The knife had the same power as Longinus, and it had succeeded in cutting off most of Gaia's roots. Death, that was Gaia's first thought. And then the thought that passed by, all of them were doomed!

The arm in Zero's body jerked forward, and the blade of his fingers was like a knife, smoothly cutting open the crystal nucleus, reaching into its depths. As long as it passes through the other side of the crystal nucleus, it can completely destroy the vital organ of Zero. The crystal nucleus is destroyed, and even if there is a memory set, Gaia believes that it will not save Zero's life.

At this moment, he felt a trace of loneliness like ice. They are the only super-beings on this planet who could have gone far, but now they both fell here. But at Gaia's level, the movement does not stop because of a moment of weakness of will. However, when Gaia's arm passed through the crystal nucleus, he suddenly felt the presence of his fingers.

It's as if there is another dimension in the crystal nucleus, and the arm has passed through two different dimensions. Gaia jerked back his arm, bringing out a puddle of blood. Zero staggered backwards, a fist-sized gap in his chest. Where Gaia's arm pierced, the body was completely annihilated. From outside, you can even see Zero's pierced crystal nucleus, which is constantly spewing out large patches of gray-white light in the cracks of the crystal nucleus.

That's the power of nothingness!

On that day, he fought Leo in the Well of Divine Cry, and was finally blown into the abyss by Leo's self-explosion, and woke up to find that there was still a void of power preserved. And this time it's a permanent preservation, not a constant decline as usual. Zero captures it, seals the force into the crystal nucleus, and activates the split brain to model and analyze it in order to unravel the secrets of nothingness.

Less than a third of the time was still in progress, but the power of nothingness, which had been in a steady state, seemed to be stimulated to attack itself as if Gaia's finger was piercing into the crystal nucleus. By now, Gaia's palms had turned white, and the gray was still spreading. Frightened and furious, Gaia kept urging the remaining energy to drain the power of nothingness, but this force faithfully fulfilled its duty to direct things to nothingness.

Gaia was hit twice at the same time, and there was no doubt that she would eventually return to nothingness. Zero retreated all the way to the corner, then sat down as if he had lost all his strength, gasping for breath as he looked at Gaia, who was still floating in mid-air. Only the part above his chest remained, and even the small half of his body was gradually annihilated by the influence of nothingness.

It's just that the progress of nihilization is not as rapid as before, which is related to the limited amount of force preserved in the Zero Crystal Nucleus, as well as Gaia's current energy-based form. But Gaia also reached the point of lingering, he finally calmed down, and looked at Zero Dao with the golden pupil that had no energy: "I didn't expect the end to be like this." ”

Zero nodded and said with difficulty: "It looks like my hands are better than yours." ”

Indeed, it turns out that Longinus's real ability is not in the bullet, but in itself. If I had known that it still had the ability to change its form freely, then I wouldn't have been fooled by the shape of your revolver. Gaia said lightly.

"It's a pity that fate doesn't say what if. ”

"You're right, Zero. Originally, I thought that as a regular body, I would never lose to you as a clone. But the facts have proved that your luck is above mine. In the end, the world still chose you. Gaia said in a deep voice: "From today on, you are the only one!"

"So, zero...... Don't lose to fate!" Gaia said, suddenly speeding up the rate of annihilation. Patches of blue light dispersed, and what was left of his body quickly disappeared. But the golden pupil became brighter and brighter, and finally turned into a golden light that shot towards Zero, landing at Zero's feet.

As for Gaia, it dissipated completely. But Zero sensed that Gaia had used all his best energy to get the other Vision out of his body, thus escaping the fate of nothingness. This man, who is unwilling to be the shell of the will of the planet, is still under the chessboard of the times, leaving a chess piece full of variables.

Looking at the Vision that fell beside him, Zero smiled bitterly and reached out to hold it. He knew that most of Gaia's genes must be sealed in it, as well as a lot of ability information. Gaia eventually saved it, naturally hoping that Zero would make up for himself through it. Zero picked it up, opened his mouth and threw it in. As soon as the Vision fell into Zero's mouth, it immediately turned into a stream of golden liquid and flowed into the esophagus.

The next moment, Zero's whole body exudes an astonishing high heat, but Zero himself falls into a coma. This was a time when he was more vulnerable than ever, and I am afraid that even an ordinary pistol could kill him.

The war is over.

Whether it's Zero and Gaia, or the war in Rome. By the time the first rays of dawn cast on the endless wilderness, everything had fallen silent. In the city of Rome, flames were still rising, and the afterburns of war appeared in some corners of the city. The Knights are extinguishing these flames and trying to restore order after the war.

The entire Papal Room is a thing of the past, with more than 80% of the area from the square to the main complex at the rear damaged, a great destruction that the city of Rome has not suffered since its foundation. If you want to restore the Papal Hall again, you can't do it without five or six months. It was not only the Papal Hall that was damaged, but several neighborhoods affected by the war were almost in ruins, and the corpses of both sides could be seen everywhere. or lying on the street, or buried in rubble.

After this battle, the Knights were reduced by seventy percent, and there were less than 300 men left. However, the casualty rate of Zoro's private army is as high as 90%, and the most surviving ones are the guys who chose to surrender because the situation was not right. They have been held and are currently guarded by men from Mendrissa.

The most important thing is that all the members of the Silver Hand died in battle. A total of twenty-one cyborg warriors who cloned Sauron's genes appeared before and after, but in the end, they were all killed. However, this battle was also a difficult battle for Su and Feng, who followed the Zero South Expedition to the North, and after these two ninth-order battles reached the extreme, both Su's heavy sword and Feng's Tang sword turned into scrap metal.

Even so, both were injured and fell into a coma straight after the fight. In any case, the victory will eventually be won, but the victory is often accompanied by a huge price.

At the end of the battle, when there were only two Silver Hand left, they both activated the self-detonation. Once the two ninth-order self-destruct, I'm afraid that the entire city of Rome will be affected. At this time, Mr. X and Mamilo did not hesitate, and used their bodies to block most of the power of the self-explosion, so that the explosion was suppressed in one block.

But afterwards, the bodies of the two did not leave even fragments. Eventually, Paul could only raise a mourning flag in the square after the war to mourn the souls who died in battle.

After three days, Su and the others finally regained consciousness. In addition to the fact that the body is still not completely healed, the spirit is good. However, there is still a problem that is hanging over everyone's minds like a dark cloud, and that is that zero has not yet returned. In the end, not only Cinderella, but also Su and the others couldn't sit still, and they all decided to go out of the city to find the ruins of Zero.

Paul also joined them, and after entrusting Mendrissa to handle some affairs in the city of Rome on his behalf, the young pope personally drove and left the city with Cinderella and others. Black Wing was among them, an expert in tracking, and with some clues left by Zero and Gaia outside the city that day, he finally found the city where the decisive battle was played.

When the city was seen on a hill, everyone was stunned. Several neighborhoods of the city were completely inhabited and in ruins, littered with the marks of the explosions. The whole city smelled of dead silence, which stemmed from the battlefield that seemed to leave a huge black class in the city, and there was too much destructive energy left in the place after the battle between Gaia and Zero. If these energies are not purified by a specific purification technique, then it will take a long time to complete the purification of themselves.

And such a time is usually measured in hundred years.

Faced with a completely dead city, even Black Wing, who is known for his ability to perceive, can't sense any fluctuations in life in the city. The only way for everyone to do this was to separate and go into the ruins to find it.

Cinderella walked alone along the ruined neighborhoods, trampling through the rubble and finally to the playground where Zero and Gaia had fought that day. Looking at the collapsed Ferris wheel, the shattered merry-go-round, and the traces of the battle, Cinderella could imagine in her mind how fierce the battle had been.

"Zero, are you here?" she shouted, on the way here, I don't know how many times she had called like this, but no one answered her every time.

This time was no exception.

Cinderella sighed, and was about to look elsewhere when her gaze inadvertently passed in front of a restaurant. Suddenly, her heart pounded, and Cinderella's eyes widened, and she could feel it.

Even though there was no sign of it, her instinct told her that Zero was there.

Cinderella ran inside, and sure enough, she saw Zero in the corner of the restaurant. Zero was missing an arm, leaning against the corner of the wall, as if asleep. His whole body was covered with a thin layer of dust, and his chest did not rise or fall in the slightest, like a corpse.

"No, no, no......" Cinderella's vision blurred for a moment, and she shook her head and ran over. Stretch out a trembling finger and put it under Zero's nose, but the fingers don't feel the slightest breath.

"No, that's not true. Cinderella threw her head back to Zero's chest, where there was still not a pulse of life.

All signs are that Zero is dead!

"No! I don't believe it, it's a lie, it's a lie!" Cinderella shouted, and in her excitement, energy overflowed uncontrollably, shaking the walls and objects around her.

She lay Zero flat on the ground, artificial respiration again, and beat his heart with her hand. When Su and the others noticed Cinderella's violent energy fluctuations and rushed to the scene, they saw that she seemed to be doing something in vain. The few people were also silent, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing at this moment. They looked like Zero sleeping peacefully, and they didn't want to believe that life had left the man.

Walking with Zero, they have forgotten how many desperate situations they have crossed with him. But obviously, this time the zero can't be crossed. However, for Su or Kaede, such an ending is not too surprising. After all, they also felt the amount of power that Gaia showed that day, and although Zero had become very strong, there was still some distance from Gaia.

They only hoped that Zero would be able to work a miracle this time, but now it seems that the god of luck no longer favors him.

"He's gone. Black Wing walked over and reached out and patted Cinderella on the shoulder, "I can feel it, Mr. Zero...... There was no sign of life on him. ”

"No!" Cinderella clapped Blackwing's hand away and shouted, "He's still alive." How could someone like him die like this? No, Zero wouldn't just leave!"

Seeing her keep beating Zero's chest, everyone felt uncomfortable, and even Yeru, a girl who had always been expressionless, was biting her lip tightly at the moment. If Haiwei was here, I'm afraid she would have cried a lot. Black Wing couldn't stand it and reached out to pull Cinderella away, but she knocked her out of the way. Cinderella looked at Zero and muttered, "Get up, get up, Zero." Don't sleep, you ......"

"How long are you going to sleep!" she screamed, thumping Zero's chest.

This is the most depraved vent.

But at this time, everyone had an indescribable strange feeling. A faint, but very tenacious vitality suddenly appeared on this dead land, like a new sprout breaking through the ground, although childish, but full of vitality.

Cinderella slowly raised her head, and saw that Zero had sat up at some point. The man propped up the ground with one hand, and a warm smile overflowed on his face: "Good morning......"

"Stupid, it's almost evening!" Cinderella said, slamming into Zero's arms.

Zero knocked her to the ground, and before she could speak, her mouth had been sealed. Cinderella kissed him with all her strength, and at this moment, words also seemed pale and weak.

Watching the two kiss passionately, Paul gestured and walked out of the restaurant with a smile. The others also left, leaving the small space for the two of them.

After about ten minutes, Zero and Cinderella walked out of the restaurant. He smiled faintly and said, "I'm worried about you." ”

"You're fine, what about the man?" asked Paul.

"Already...... Completely gone. Zero whispered, until now, the image of Gaia before it dissipated still lingered in his mind.

"Disappear, that's really ......" Paul suddenly "huh" and said, "Zero, your left eye?"

At this time, everyone noticed that Zero's left eye was now also golden, and with the original right eye, Zero now had a pair of eyes like gold.

Zero stretched out, gently covered his left eye with the palm of his hand, and said, "This is someone's gift." ”

"Alright, let's go back. Your Highness Paul, I hope you have something for me to eat, and now I am so hungry that even three cows can eat. ”

Paul smiled: "Don't talk about three heads, even if you have ten heads, you can eat them, Lao Tzu is now a big family." ”

"That couldn't be better. Zero looked at Cinderella, clasped her hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back!"

"Hmm. ”
