When Shao Ci took the artifact and arrived outside the holy capital, the person he was looking for was already waiting there.
A handsome young man with the same appearance as Wendell was standing there. Shao Ci was a little dazed when he saw this familiar face, but he quickly realized it.
The powerful power hidden in the other party cannot be discovered by ordinary people, but as long as the strength reaches a certain level, I am afraid that his existence can be felt across half a continent. After all, it can easily affect the world God's power.
It is precisely because of this that his temperament is quite different from the sunny and gentle Wendell, with a mysterious and terrifying aura that attracts people to explore the secrets hidden in his body.
Of course, people who do this are like moths to a flame, and will eventually be destroyed by their own curiosity.
'Wendel' looked at Shao Ci with a faint smile on his face, "Long time no see. Should I call you a brave man, or a devil?"
Shao Ci: "... I don't need to address you anymore, anyway, we don't have a chance to continue talking."
"It's really unfeeling, we have lived together for such a long time anyway."'Wendel' sighed, there seemed to be a bit of sadness in his eyes.
Who was the guy who stabbed him to death before? ! Who in the end is unfeeling!
Of course, Shao Ci would not say that directly, he knew that for this person, no matter what he said, it would be useless, but the longer the time dragged on, the worse it would be for him.
After all, God can only rely on his avatar to act in this world now, which is not as powerful as the main body. Shao Ci could only take advantage of this opportunity to rescue Wendell.
And the other party didn't want to let the threat of Shao Ci survive, so he directly used Wendell's avatar to catch Shao Ci.
"Wendel, who I used to get along with, is basically two people with you." Shao Ci raised his head and looked at the past coldly, "We are just strangers, and I came here today just to kill you."
"So indifferent, it seems that you have already made up your mind." Wendell closed his eyes, and when he opened them again the next moment, the gentle blue eyes in the past had turned into a piece of cold golden color, and his forehead and cheeks were also darkened. There are silver lines faintly emerging, full of a holy temperament.
When I look at the past now, I really can't see the traces of that gentle and upright young man at all, but a tool manipulated by a completely emotionless god.
Shao Ci's heart tightened, and the surrounding sky instantly darkened, and countless beams of light poured down from it, falling on the ground, sealing this space like a huge prison.
"Will you welcome me with such a grand ceremony?" Shao Ci said, "It's really flattering."
"If the opponent is you, this is nothing." 'Wendel' said lightly, "After all, this time, no matter what, I can't let you escape again."
"Of course I won't run away." Shao Ci murmured, his eyes suddenly became firm. By this time, he had a little sense of the mission of the protagonist's script.
A salty fish like him, who was forced to drive ducks to the shelves to be a brave man before, has now developed to the point where he wants to fight the villain boss... It's incredible to think about Shao Ci.
But what's even more incredible is that he doesn't have the same fear in his heart now, but instead wants to really have a good fight with his opponent.
Shao Ci knew that he had escaped too many things, and too many people had sacrificed for today. Everyone lent him their strength, and he could no longer be like the past.
Looking deeply at the person in front of him, Shao Ci took out the bow and arrow given to him by the Dark Elf King, and a powerful light burst out in his hand immediately.
This artifact can not only attack demigods, but it can even kill gods as long as it is used properly. Although each use requires a lot of mental strength and strength, it is nothing compared to winning or losing.
"let's start."
...
…
The picture of the huge beam of light falling to the ground is amazing, and it can be said that people in most of the continent can see it clearly.
Immediately, many people knelt on the ground excitedly, thinking that this must be a miracle, they closed their eyes and prayed.
But some people who understand the inside story are in complicated moods. Ewings stood on a high place and looked at the scene in the distance, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
Although he also wanted to help, but at this level of battle, he was no longer able to intervene casually. Even in the past, it was just adding to the chaos, so it was better to just watch here.
"You must... be all right." Ewings murmured in a low voice.
...
…
The Dark Elf King looked at the picture in the water mirror in front of him, with a helpless expression on his face, "Are you really going to challenge God? Although I guessed it a long time ago, but... do you really have courage?"
"But yes, if you don't have the courage, how dare you do these things?" He wanted to laugh a few times, but found that he couldn't laugh, so he could only look at the scene in front of him in silence.
It was also fortunate that he handed over the artifact to Shao Ci. If he had that artifact, things might turn around.
...
…
I don't know how long it took, but in these beams of light emitting divine power, no changes in the sky outside could be seen at all.
Once again, Shao Ci was unable to resist the opponent's attack, and was knocked down to the ground. He only felt that the bones in his body were about to shatter, so he could only milk himself with healing abilities.
If it weren't for the healing ability, he would have died long ago.
But even with such a bug-level healing ability, it is impossible to continue to work like this... If the power is overdrawn, it will only usher in a greater backlash in the end.
The opponent's strength is indeed much stronger than him, even if it's just a clone. Even if Shao Ci tried his best, he could at most cause minor injuries to the opponent, but he had to have a very difficult time defending against the opponent's attack.
Shao Ci coughed up several mouthfuls of blood again, and sat up from the ground with difficulty, he no longer had the strength to stand up again.
And Shao Ci also had a vague premonition that if he used the healing ability again, he would not be able to heal his wounds... The number of treatments seemed to have reached a certain limit.
"Is this your full strength? It's just that you can't do it like this. I will feel sad when I get hurt." The other party's voice sounded, and it seemed to have a bit of tenderness in it, but at this time Instead, it seemed to be mocking, "But for you, it is not easy to achieve this step."
"I, cough, cough..." Shao Ci said with difficulty: "I think maybe I can save it again..."
But it is no longer possible! ! He doesn't have the aura of a protagonist! I still want to fight against the villain boss, this is simply a dream!
The next moment, there were golden silk threads attacking around him. If it was Shao Ci before, he could of course avoid it, but now he has no strength to resist, and he was tied up firmly by the silk thread.
"Oh?" 'Wendell' came over, lowered his head and stretched out his hands to pinch Shao Ci's chin, forcing him to raise his head and look at him, with a bit of a smile in his voice, "Don't worry, although it will hurt a little now , but after everything is over, I will resurrect you."
Shao Ci: "What, what—" Is there such a thing as an enemy even though it is obvious!
[Host, don't think too much about it! Even if you are resurrected like that, it is probably directly bound to your host's soul. After that, you may never be able to escape! Would you like to see that happen? !]
Shao Ci: "..." Of course not!
"Now you can rest with peace of mind." 'Wendel' said softly: "As for other things, you don't have to remember any more, anyway, the others are going to die after all."
No, this will really turn into the worst ending.
Shao Ci's face became paler, and he held the bow and arrow tightly with both hands, feeling a chill in his chest... When he was about to be stabbed again, the opponent's body suddenly stopped.
Then the silk thread binding Shao Ci also unraveled.
"?!" Shao Ci raised his head in astonishment, and met a pair of blue eyes, which were frowning, with a bit of pain in his eyes.
Shao Ci: "Wen, Wendell?"
Although this can be said to be a very routine plot, he still felt moved when he saw Wendell. This is the protagonist of this world!
So he has completed the task of awakening the other party, so he can leave this world directly!
[No, this is just a temporary awakening, not really awakened yet.]
Shao Ci: "..." Then how can I really wake it up.
[Let’s cause a certain impact on the opponent’s body and spirit. In fact, it’s not impossible to walk, but after all, the current protagonist’s consciousness can’t resist the main body...]
"I, I know."
Shao Ci gritted his teeth, no matter how many, he directly used his spiritual power to touch the opponent's conscious world—
It was pitch black all around.
"I didn't expect you to have this opportunity to enter my conscious world." A smiling voice sounded, and a handsome silver-haired young man appeared beside him, "Although we have known each other for a long time, but this appearance , maybe you're seeing it for the first time?"
Shao Ci immediately understood who the person in front of him was, and subconsciously took a step back, "You, what do you want to do?"
"I still admire you very much." The silver-haired young man said, "You actually wanted to awaken part of my consciousness, and almost made you succeed. How should I reward you?"
"Then, those are unnecessary." Shao Ci said, "I just want Wendell to come back!"
"You are still so obsessed with this matter." The silver-haired young man sighed, "If that's the case, how about we make a bet?"
"what?"
"Afterwards, I will arrange for you to meet Wendell. As long as you can successfully wake him up, I will return him to you." The silver-haired young man smiled, "But if you lose, you must stay in my conscious world forever .”
"Okay..." What else can Shao Ci say besides being good now.
"Very good." The silver-haired young man stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, the surrounding environment changed, and his figure disappeared without a trace.
And Wendell, who was expressionless, also appeared in front of Shao Ci. The opponent was still holding a sword in his hand, and directly attacked Shao Ci.
Shao Ci dodged with difficulty, and at the same time spoke in an attempt to awaken the opponent's consciousness.
Fortunately, after entering the soul world, it was his conscious body... Otherwise, there is no way for the half-beaten body from the outside world to get out of the way.
Of course, such a simple method cannot wake up.
Shao Ci gritted his teeth, picked up the artifact handed to him by the Dark Elf King, and aimed at some non-critical parts of the opponent from a distance. Speaking of which, the artifact is truly worthy of being an artifact, and after binding, it can be used even in the conscious world.
After such a few moves, the other party immediately paused.
And Shao Ci seized this opportunity, rushed over suddenly, and hugged Wendell directly.
"Wendel, wake up!"
When Shao Ci yelled, he didn't have any hope. After all, if such a simple yell was really useful, he had been beaten for so long before.
Then the next moment he felt the body he hugged paused.
"... Wendell?" Shao Ci couldn't believe it.
"Yes. It's me..." The other party's low voice sounded, and Wendell struggled to speak, "Now, kill me."
"What?" Shao Ci said immediately, his tone suddenly became more intense, "I'm here to save you! How could I just let you die!"
"Come to save me?" Wendell was obviously stunned, "You, didn't you come to kill me, to save other people..."
"They all put aside, you are the most important!" Shao Ci said in the most sincere tone of his life, "Anyway, tell me how to wake you up... I can do whatever you want!"
Wendell's originally pale cheeks suddenly turned a little crimson, and he seemed to have stabilized a lot. His voice sounded low, "Can you really do anything?"
I don't know if it's Shao Ci's illusion, but I always feel that Wendell's voice sounds much better than the weak one before, as if everything is fine.
Shao Cisheng was afraid that he would change back all of a sudden, so he quickly said, "Yeah!"
"Then just give me a kiss." Wendell said.
Shao Ci: "... eh?!"
"Can't it be done?" Wendell's voice was suddenly a little disappointed.
"No, no!" How could Shao Ci refuse at this time, not to mention that such a request was not too much, he didn't even think about it, he just leaned over and kissed the other person on the cheek.
All of a sudden, light lit up from the surrounding ground, and everything that was originally dark became colorful in an instant, and the surrounding scene became the street when the two met.
Shao Ci was stunned.
[Most of the mission has been completed, now we only need to solve the final boss, and the host can teleport away.]
"I really didn't expect to see such a picture." A cold voice sounded, and the silver-haired young man appeared on the other side of the road. His face didn't look very good, "It's just a part of my consciousness, don't you think I'm still delusional?" Can you really have your own feelings?"
Shao Ci: "Didn't you agree..."
"Really?" The silver-haired young man sighed, "I meant to give him back to you, but I didn't say it was complete."
Shao Ci: "!" Hey! Is it really okay to be so shameless!
Wendell protected Shao Ci behind him, "If you want to do something, come at me."
"It's just a doppelgänger, still so arrogant?" The silver-haired young man smiled lowly, "As early as when you were born, I could easily control your life and death..."
After the words fell, his face changed, "How could it be..."
"You are too arrogant." Wendell said lightly, "You are too confident in your own power, too confident in your control over other consciousnesses... But, is this really the case? What other consciousnesses possess Can strong feelings really be erased so easily?"
Shao Ci was refreshed, here he comes, has the protagonist Halo finally returned!
"Stop talking nonsense." The silver-haired young man looked over coldly, "After all, they are just trash."
Wendell reached out and pressed Shao Ci's shoulder, "You just stay here."
After finishing speaking, he started to fight with the silver-haired young man over there. It may be because the two are actually one, they can easily predict each other's moves, so the scene is a little weird for a while.
But as a clone, Wendell's strength is inferior to that of the main body, and he is at a disadvantage.
Shao Ci watched nervously from the side. Of course he would not continue to watch like this. If there was any crisis, he would of course step forward to help at the risk of his own life. Anyway, if he died, he would just leave this world.
Just when the silver-haired youth was about to strike directly, an arrow suddenly flew over. This is not an ordinary attack in the conscious world, he subconsciously retreated to dodge.
Shao Ci took this opportunity to protect Wendell.
The silver-haired young man's expression became more and more icy, and he grabbed Shao Ci's neck, "You..."
Before he could say the rest, his expression became distorted, and the color of his pupils instantly turned light blue. He pressed his painful forehead, but his body still became unstable, as if There is something like black mist wrapped around it.
"Yes, it's Siria...?" Shao Ci immediately felt a familiar atmosphere.
That is another avatar of God, who had been serving as the Holy Son in the human race before, and later became the Pope's Siria.
Did Siria come out to save him...
The silver-haired youth seemed completely unaware that things would turn out like this, "Damn—"
And Wendell seized this opportunity and directly stabbed his heart with a sword.
"I've said it a long time ago." Wendell seemed to have a bit of pity in his eyes, "Other conscious feelings... are not such simple things..."
The silver-haired young man's eyes were still a bit stunned. He probably didn't expect in the end that he would be defeated by those avatars who he looked down upon completely.
But then he smiled, and his tone was full of coldness, "Don't think that you have my power... you will be safe... I have seen the future... You are destined to be—"
Before he finished speaking, a huge ray of light erupted from the body of the silver-haired youth in an instant, sweeping everything in. Shao Ci, who was in the center, was thrown to the ground by force, and his eyes went black.
After Shao Ci's sight recovered, he had already returned to reality.
All the beams of light around him burst apart, and the sky seemed to be about to burst, creating an apocalyptic scene.
But in the end, as the person in front of Shao Ci opened his eyes, everything calmed down as quickly as possible, as if everything before was just an illusion.
The man picked up Shao Ci who was lying on the ground, and Shao Ci looked up, "Is that you... Wendell..."
"It's me." Wendell reached out to help him straighten his messy hair, lowered his head and kissed Shao Ci's forehead lightly, "I'm back."
Shao Ci immediately felt relieved, and then fell into a coma uncontrollably.
After all, in the previous process, he was beaten up by a god clone for a long time, and then entered the other party's conscious world. So many things happened, it would cost him half his life.
More than ten days have passed since the previous incident, and everything has returned to calm.
The war between the human race and the demon race has also stopped. Although the hatred between them will not be let go so easily, at least some unnecessary casualties can be reduced now.
As for those monsters, they may also lose their demonic energy with the passage of time and restore their original appearance.
It's just that the pope, the devil and others are missing, but because they all conveyed the news of finding a successor to their subordinates, they didn't cause much disturbance.
After Shao Ci woke up, he found himself lying on a familiar bed... It was the room he slept in when he was still living at Wendell's house.
And Wendell was sitting aside, holding something in his hand and looking at it.
"Are you awake?" He noticed the movement on Shao Ci's side, and immediately smiled.
"Hmm..." Shao Ci didn't ask anything about the situation, the system had already told him directly when he woke up.
Probably because of the protagonist's halo or something. After Wendell got the power of God, he would no longer be absorbed and weakened by the creatures on the mainland like before, and he didn't have to do anything for it like before.
Moreover, Wendell had kindly resurrected both Siren and Erek who had sacrificed for Shao Ci, but of course he would not let the two of them appear in front of Shao Ci.
It can be said that it is now a happy ending.
Except, he was about to leave soon.
[The teleportation will start in 30 seconds, the host, if you have something to say, please explain it quickly.]
Shao Ci: "...!" This is too fast! !
Don't you have time to let him experience the sadness of parting
"That... Wendell, I..." Shao Ci seemed hesitant to speak.
"What?" Wendell looked over, "Is there anything else you can't say to me?"
"No... just..." Shao Ci said, "I like you too..."
After not receiving a reply for a long time, Shao Ci looked up and saw that Wendell's face was flushed.
"Also..." Shao Ci hurriedly said, "I seem to be hungry..."
"I'm going to bring the food now." Wendell stood up immediately, probably shy, and left the room quickly.
Shao Ci looked at his back and sighed inwardly.
After all, it's the last, so let Wendell be a little happier.
[Countdown, 10, 9, 8...]
"I don't know what the future world will be like..." Shao Ci couldn't help thinking of this matter.
He didn't know if there was any point in all of this, but if possible, Shao Ci didn't want to end... He didn't want to go back to the past.
After all, the past cast a huge shadow on him.
And Shao Ci also likes the current situation. Although he can't stay in each place for a long time, he can see all kinds of things and meet all kinds of people this way, which makes him very happy.
[3, 2, 1... Transmission starts—]
[The next step is to go to a place that the host is very familiar with.]
