The terrifying landslide collapsed with the surrounding mountains. The gray stone flow covered a vast area in an instant, turning the entire mountain area into a plateau of gravel and gravel. The aftermath of the impact was still spreading towards the outside world. The dust was kicked up, forming a hurricane that swept across the world.
"Damn it!"
The moment before the stone flow covered the fortress, Moria and Claire barely reacted to the shocking scene before. The two of them broke out with all their strength in an instant, joining forces to resist this powerful impact - the Iron Demon. Under the power of green nature, the tree rolled its roots and branches, wrapping its owner and her companions together. On the outside of its silver-white branches that turned into balls, layers of A mountain-like golden vindictive shadow enveloped him.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The sound that overrode everything resounded for thousands of miles. The surrounding mountains collapsed one after another like dominoes, and the gray mist that rushed into the sky spread endlessly.
However, as time passed, the seemingly endless loud noise began to disappear, and everything gradually returned to silence.
…
I don’t know how long it will take.
"Crack."
A slight sound resounded on the plateau covered with gravel and dust, and in the world that was originally almost stagnant, there was a sudden movement.
"Kacha kacha..."
Accompanied by the sound of stirring, a small mound suddenly arched up on the flat ground, as if something was crawling out of the ground.
"boom!"
There was a muffled sound, and an unknown force violently shattered the mound from the inside. A fist wrapped in iron armor appeared, and along with the splashing sand, a man wearing black armor and holding a giant ax appeared. The figure slowly walked out of the gravel and gravel.
The blood on the armor had long since dried up and turned into black scabs. The V-shaped viewing opening on the helmet was also obscured by thick dust. A hand wrapped in steel wiped it away, and the soldier looked around in confusion.
Behind the transparent steel crystal on the helmet, there were two points shining with red light. Joshua, who had gradually come to his senses, stood upright on the ground with a giant ax in his hand, raising his head and looking directly at everything in front of him.
He saw the shrill cold wind blowing like a knife across the flat land in front of him, and the drifting gray smoke blew diagonally across, like a black straight line, dividing the sky and the earth into two, while the earth in the distance rumbled and shook. Ming, countless gravel and sand were at his feet, covering everything that was originally there.
And above the head, the sky that was originally extremely dark has now become even darker. The black clouds are mixed with countless dust and rotate, turning into a whirlpool, swallowing all the light.
"…Phew."
With a long sigh and a breath that smelled of blood, the warrior lifted his helmet and put it under his arm. His face was tired, and his long black hair was fluttering in the wind, sweeping across his face. He had already recalled Qiao Xiu who had passed by before. Ya looked down at him with a complicated expression.
"He actually bumped into me like this... What on earth were you thinking?!"
No matter what she thought, Joshua no longer had the energy to think about why No. 3 acted like this.
Because he is about to die.
When fighting the Aragami, he used more than fifteen buff states. Coupled with the divine mechanical load, Joshua completely squeezed his body to act. Originally, he could still rely on the Azure Orb to burn the Aragami's blood to repair it. But in the last fight, his body was severely damaged. Although Jiyi Huangshen was severely injured and even died by No. 3's desperate fight, Joshua also completely broke the limit of his body's endurance. Now, All his organs were failing.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Even though the injury was so serious, when he thought that the powerful monster that seemed to be swallowing up the world was entangled with him like this, and then was hit by the mobile fortress in an aggrieved manner, Joshua couldn't help but shout loudly. Laugh—even if your whole body is in severe pain, you should still laugh happily!
Next to him, with a brilliant wave of magic power, the black giant ax was deactivated from the divine machine. The black-haired and golden-eyed divine machine boy nervously supported his master, but was gently pushed away by Joshua. Rin couldn't help but feel He said anxiously: "Master, you need to maintain your strength now, I will support you..."
"Don't panic."
Shaking his head and smiling, Joshua, whose spirit was still a little stuck in the battle, said nonchalantly to his weapon: "I'm about to die, but I'm not going to die right away."
He didn't seem worried at all about his injuries that were so serious that he was on the verge of death. He would really die of exhaustion in ten minutes, but for some reason he still had an inexplicable calmness, and the soldier's red eyes were still flashing. With a glow of excitement: "Rin, now I'll give you a task."
After a pause, Joshua continued: "Find the location of the Jiyi Desolate God."
Previously, when No. 3 drove the fortress and flew towards him with the momentum of crushing all things in the world, in order not to become a casualty of the death of Jiyi Aragami, he simply let go of his hand, and then was hit by the shock wave generated by the collision of two behemoths. He was blown away, and now, he was seriously injured and was in urgent need of Chaos Monster treatment.
Rin is indeed a genius who has experienced elite education. He seemed a little nervous at first because of Joshua's injury, but now he has returned to calmness under the warrior's calm momentum. After hearing Joshua's words, Rin immediately Then he understood the reason why his master wanted him to do this, so he said a heavy 'hmm'.
Under Joshua's guidance, he closed his eyes and sensed the power of chaos.
Not long after, the magical young man opened his golden eyes and said happily: "I found it, master. It's over there. The aura of chaos is very strong, and it's not buried too deep!"
"So close?"
Looking in the direction Rin pointed with some surprise, Joshua nodded, "Then dig it out for me."
Joshua is not a weapon to squeeze himself, but his physical condition is indeed not good. Now, every step he takes can be said to be destroying his body and accelerating his death. When he was dug out from the ground at the beginning, he just As a last resort, for now, it’s better to exercise as little as possible.
Naturally, Rin went to dig without hesitation. Although he looked young and was not tall, as Joshua's magic machine, the young man still had the strength of a high-level silver. He dug very fast. Even without tools, it was faster than a dozen ordinary people working together. Before long, a large pit and mound appeared in front of the soldier.
After a while, Rin's voice came from deep underground: "-Master, I found it!"
Upon hearing this, Joshua, who was standing still, trying to maintain his strength as much as possible, immediately moved in the direction of Rin, and he entered the deep pit without hesitation.
There was no light in the cave. With his dark vision, Joshua reached the end of the cave. He saw a piece of white bone in the center of the deep pit. Rin stood aside with a look of joy on his face. exhausted.
After praising Rin a few words, Joshua stepped forward and knelt down to touch it. Although he couldn't see the entire bone clearly, Joshua could still tell which part of the body it belonged to.
This is the sky-penetrating giant horn of Jiyi Huangshen.
The blue-white thunder that originally surrounded it was no longer there, and the terrifying aura of chaos had completely disappeared. There was even a faint black mist rising from the gaps in the surrounding sand, bringing out a hint of deathly silence.
"He is indeed dead. The body seems to have not started decomposing yet. It should be too late."
After struggling to take out the azure orb hanging on his chest from the armor, Joshua glanced at this ordinary, glass-bead-like holy object of order, and then pressed it on the horn of Jiyi Huangshen with a serious look on his face. .
"call-"
The sound of something being set on fire appeared in this dark cave.
Then, a ball of light lit up.
The azure orb, which had no special characteristics at first, immediately began to bloom with infinite brilliance after coming into contact with the body of Jiyi Huangshen. The majestic power of order was like fire meeting dry wood, spreading rapidly and burning! In an instant, extremely strong light illuminated the entire cave, and even spread out, forming a white beam of light that shot directly into the sky!
The azure orb began to release high heat rapidly, and Joshua felt as if he was holding a ball of fire in his palms. Along with this heat, streams of pure life force were transmitted to his own body, covering every detail of his body. All were filled, and the originally serious injuries began to heal quickly, and the internal organs and spirit gradually returned to intact, and even became stronger!
Immersed in the pleasure of repairing his injuries, Joshua did not notice that his talent as a Chaos Guardian and the characteristics of the Azure Orb were gradually being changed during the burning process.
[Unburned Fire], [Blood of Chaos, Source of Fire], these two abilities that seem to be matched together are becoming blurred little by little, then merged, and began to transform into another ability!
