The boatman's sickle cut through the space and cut it towards Ivan.
Ivan did not give in, the sword edge rose, the collision of the two weapons shook the ruins, and several shock waves erupted with the two of them as the origin, and spread out, cutting the originally small ruins into several pieces. .
The darkness eroded in from these cracks, and wanted to completely drag the ruins of this heavenly palace and the capital of Wright into annihilation.
But Ivan and the boatman didn't care. The two stood on the debris of the ruins, constantly changing their shapes, fighting back and forth.
Under the blessing of the holy tree, the boatman's strength is great, even stronger than Ivan, whose strength has returned to a perfect state. After hitting hard with his sickle several times, Ivan's hands have splattered blood.
But under the blessing of the light, his wounds healed quickly, and he continued to fight with the boatman.
What Ivan said to himself before was indeed right. He has been a reckless man from a long, long time ago, but only a reckless man dared to fight when the strength of the enemy and me was disparate, and turned defeat into victory.
This was the case when he defeated the Demon King before, and it is the same now.
The tip of the sword blocked the blade cutting towards his neck again, Ivan pushed the big sword, the black big sword slid along the curved blade of the sickle, rubbed a spark, and then cut to the boatman's hand holding the hilt.
The boatman snorted, released the handle of the knife with one hand, grabbed it, and firmly held Ivan's blade with the palm of his hand.
But he soon let out a scream, because there was a purple power that made his skin decay, and then countless vines took advantage of it, tore open his skin, and drilled into his body.
The boatman threw down his scythe for a while, stretched out his hand to grab these weed vines, and tore them apart easily, but a burst of light shone over, the wildfire couldn't burn, the spring breeze blew again, bathed in the light, and these vines grew again, Inexhaustible.
Ivan snapped his fingers, and the vines suddenly burned, turning into a flame into the boatman's body, and then causing a violent explosion.
The boatman let out a scream, but a mysterious force rushed in quickly, filling and repairing his wound, while making the boatman's body stronger.
"Your tree doesn't seem to be very good at fighting."
Ivan smiled and said.
"What if you're not good at fighting?"
In the boatman's eyes, the light of the holy tree jumped.
"I grew up for a long time that you can't imagine, spanned countless epochs, and accumulated my own energy in these epochs. Even if my fighting ability is not as good as yours, I can crush you in strength. With my blessing , this apostle is an immortal existence, and it consumes energy to kill you!"
"So… "
The black knight raised his sword.
"Let's see who can kill who!"
------------
"What the hell is going on here?"
In the cemetery, the dwarf Flint had already taken all his belongings, ran out of the basement, and came to the circular square.
Not that he wanted to come out, but because before he ran out, there were already signs of that basement collapsing.
Not long after the flint came out, Hill was also guarded by Leia and hurriedly left the tower where he lived before.
After they left, the tower collapsed quickly, and was swallowed by a terrible darkness, annihilating nothing left.
"It seems that the knight-sama succeeded."
After Hill and Leia came to the circular square, Eve, who was sitting here, looked at her and said softly:
"The last light in the world has gone out."
"Then this vision."
Flint looked around.
"Is this the end?"
Eve nodded lightly.
"The world is about to fall into nothingness."
As soon as Flint heard it, he immediately unfolded all the belongings he was carrying, threw it into the red spar, and started to strike with the help of the firepower inside.
"what are you doing?"
Leia looked at him curiously.
"Iron."
Flint snorted twice.
"Since I'm dying, I'll do what I like to do before I die."
"Don't panic."
Eve put her hands together in a prayer-like gesture.
A light as soft as moonlight diffused from her body, wrapping the entire small circular square.
"I can still keep it here for a while, we will at least wait until Lord Knight returns, and then we will meet the end with him."
"What an enviable feeling."
Hill raised her skirt and sat beside Eve, looking up at the boundless darkness outside the barrier.
"Can he come back here?"
she asked.
"He promised me when he went out."
Eve replied:
"Trust him."
-------------
The last ruins of the Wright Capital and the Heavenly Palace have been swallowed by darkness.
But the battle between Ivan and the boatman continued, and their respective strengths emerged from their feet, resisting the erosion of annihilation, galloping and fighting in this endless darkness.
The fighting skills and awareness of the boatman controlled by the holy tree are far inferior to Ivan. In the fierce confrontation, his hands and feet were cut off by Ivan many times, but under the blessing of the power of the holy tree, these limbs were regenerated, and become thicker and more powerful.
In the later stages of the battle, he has been able to gradually and steadily suppress Ivan with his strength, putting the knight in danger repeatedly.
"Come on! Knight!"
Using the sickle to easily make Ivan kneel on one knee, the boatman laughed and said:
"My power is now firmly above you, and every time this body is destroyed by you, it can carry an extra portion of my power."
"Really? I admit that your strength is indeed above mine, but your fighting awareness and skills are really disastrously bad."
Ivan replied in a low voice, a little labored.
"Without the body of the apostle, you have no resistance whatsoever, right?"
"so what?"
The boatman looked down at him.
"Looking at the way you are now, can you still destroy my body?—Huh?"
He suddenly felt that something was wrong, and his consciousness seemed to be shaken by some kind of force.
"No! What did you do?"
"It's death, death."
Feeling that the strength above his head gradually weakened, Ivan slowly stood up.
He pointed to the boatman and said:
"Remember? When I cut off your hands and feet, my death force entered your body along with the wound. You can transcend eras and annihilation, but your apostle can't do it, he It is relying on the power you gave him to survive in annihilation and live through one era after another, but he himself does not have this power, so he cannot resist the erosion of death, this power will make his Consciousness drives away from the physical body, and of course, your consciousness attached to his consciousness is the same, like this."
As soon as the words fell, a purple force of death poured out from all over the boatman's body. They dragged a puff of smoke, and then the puff of smoke turned into two groups of souls, one large and one small.
The older one quickly broke free from the shackles of the power of death and wanted to return to his body, but at this time, Ivan had already kicked the boatman's body and stepped him into the black darkness of annihilation.
"Do not!"
The Will of the Sacred Tree let out a cry, but it could only watch the boatman's body disappear into nothingness.
"It's up to you next."
Ivan held the big sword and came under the holy tree.
"knight!"
The will of the holy tree quickly connected his soul and begged him for mercy:
"Speak well if you have something to say!"
Ivan ignored it, just raised his sword and chopped at the tree trunk.
boom!
"Cut me down! You can't survive either!"
boom!
"I curse you, curse you not to die!"
boom!
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Ignoring the various words of the will of the holy tree, Ivan cut down the trunk of the holy tree, and the will of the holy tree fell silent.
He cut the trunk of the holy tree into a big boat according to his words, and then picked up the sickle dropped by the boatman on the dark water.
Losing the power of the holy tree, the sickle turned into a oar again. Ivan felt a little familiar to the touch. The oar should also be a branch of the holy tree.
So he rowed the boat and headed towards the cemetery.
------------
In the cemetery, Eve's barrier was already looming and flickering.
"It's over."
Flint sighed and continued to swing the hammer, his eyes filled with reluctance, but more of a relief.
Hill leaned on the shoulders of his guard, leaning closely with the two girls Leia.
Eve was still praying, but suddenly, she listened, put down her hands, and looked to the side.
Seeing this, Hill, Leia, and Flint also looked in that direction, only to find that there was a large ship in the darkness, slowly sailing towards them.
The big boat stopped beside the circular square. Someone opened the barrier covering the circular square and jumped off the boat. It was Ivan.
"Lord Knight, welcome back."
Eve showed a happy and relieved smile.
"I am back."
Ivan took her hand and gently took off her veil.
Looking at Eve's beautiful face, he smiled and said:
"I got a boat, let's get on the boat together."
"Where can this ship sail?"
Flint looked at the ship and asked curiously.
"I don't know, maybe it can take us to a new world."
Ivan replied:
"Are you going to get on board?"
"Anyway, this time has come, and maybe this ending is not bad."
Flint put away his things again, and jumped into the boat first.
Hill and Leia looked at each other and got on the boat, and then Ivan took Eve's hand and took her to the boat, picked up the oars, and randomly found a place to paddle.
Paddled, a strange sight suddenly appeared in the darkness.
Suddenly, a big river composed of countless bright energies appeared in the sky, connected to this black horizontal plane.
"what is that?"
Hill and Leia murmured.
"I don't know, just sail up and see." Ivan rowed over there, but he suddenly remembered something, put down the oars, and looked at Eve, who was sitting beside him.
"By the way, Eve, I have a present for you."
He came behind the girl, stretched out his hand to cover the girl's eyes, a flash of white light flashed, Ivan let go, Eve's eyelids trembled, and suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of star-like eyes.
"it's beautiful."
Hill and Leia looked at the pair of eyes with complicated expressions.
"Yes."
Eve looked at the big river in the sky and murmured:
"it's beautiful."
