defense? Resist
"How can chaos be something that can be expelled?"
The sonorous and powerful answer resounded in the void. After hearing Steel Python's question, Joshua raised his head. The long river of time was rushing beside him. He looked directly at the will of the world and smiled disdainfully. : "If you always think about defense and resistance, then you will never be able to defeat Chaos! Waiting for someone else to invade and then counterattack? What a joke."
The man with black hair and red eyes grinned, his eyes flashed with flames, and then he said word by word: "Suppression, cleaning, purification, and complete destruction are the only suitable treatments for them. means!"
"We should take the lead in destroying them before they are attacked!"
The last sentence was categorical, without any hesitation.
He was not angry at being rejected. On the contrary, the hovering Steel Python became more and more interested in the human being in front of him.
"As I said before, I am about to die. And if I die like this, I may become a new evil god."
He said in a low voice: "Would you want to destroy me like this?"
"of course."
Joshua answered without hesitation, not because the other party could see through his heart, but because he really wanted to answer: "Steel Python, you have been releasing the rain of steel to alleviate the collapse of the world since six hundred years ago. It can be seen from this that you would rather die as the God of Steel than degenerate into an evil god. No matter how meaningless your struggle is, you don't want to sink like this."
"Eradicating you like that is probably your greatest wish."
"Hahahahaha."
The hoarse laughter shook the void, and the vault made of stars was also shaking. The Steel Python stared at the warrior in front of him, and the fate of all things seemed to be reflected in his silver snake eyes. He seemed to be chuckling, and then said seriously: "Qiao Xiuya, descendant of Steel."
"Your future and destiny are so uncertain that even I, the world, cannot guess."
The solemn voice echoed in the warrior's ears, and the world's will incarnate slowly said: "From you, I can see two qualities, fighting and destruction."
"With such a pure power of order, if you continue to grow, you may become the savior fighting chaos, or you may fall and become the new evil god who destroys the world."
Having said this, the Steel Python turned his attention to the blue crystal in Joshua's hand. He looked at the flame burning weakly in the middle of the crystal, nodded slightly and said: "Fire is existence, holiness, order, and human beings." Wisdom and civilization, it contains everything. With the fire left by the sages, you should not take the path of chaos. I look forward to you becoming the next one... "
Steel Python hadn't finished speaking yet, but suddenly, a strange and incomparable sound came from outside the void.
Wow! Zila—!
The sound is extremely sharp, like a siren or a cicada. It penetrates people's eardrums, making people extremely irritated and unable to concentrate.
Joshua looked around strangely, but saw nothing. Whether it was the vault made of stars, or the dark void and river of light, they were all normal, without any abnormality.
This is the inner side of the world, an existence between illusion and reality. Apart from him and the 'Steel Python', the incarnation of the will of the world, he doesn't know who else can make a sound here.
Upon hearing this voice, the Steel Python looked solemn, and its silver-white scales stopped rubbing, as if it was listening.
Not long after, it spoke in the silence and said in a deep voice: "Go back."
"I know everything, Descendant of Steel, return to where you belong."
After saying that, before the warrior could ask, the inside of the world between reality and illusion began to gradually collapse. The vault made of stars shook and shattered, turning into countless scattered light spots. Joshua's spirit and body also returned to the real world.
real world.
The huge ball of light that enveloped the entire mountain range was still emitting endless brilliance. Against the background of the rain of steel, it was extremely sacred and holy. But suddenly, accompanied by a long roar that sounded like a war cry, this light The balls began to shrink violently, and then they all converged on one person.
Under the gathering of endless radiance, Joshua took a step forward. He walked out of the light and returned to the real world.
The shrill cold wind passed through the plains. Joshua stood upright. He raised his head and looked around, and a surprising scene was playing out in front of his eyes.
Along with the strong winds, the surrounding ground rumbled and vibrated, and gravity began to lose balance, causing countless gravel rocks to slowly float in the air.
The dark sky was no longer gloomy due to the shining of light before, but at this time, the black chaotic mist is coming back, even thicker than before. With the endless spreading of chaotic mist, the black and red veins are gradually spreading and are on the verge of disintegration. on the earth.
Countless gravels flew into the sky due to the unbalanced gravity. The world lost its direction at this moment, making it difficult to tell left, right, up and down.
This is a state of gravity imbalance that has appeared in the fortress before... It is also one of the signs of the destruction of the world.
Wow! Zila—!
It was as if an insect was vibrating its mouthparts, or as if metals were rubbing against each other. The strange noise reverberated between the sky and the earth, and then reached Joshua's ears. The soldier frowned, and he felt that there was a lot of excitement in the sound. He was unhappy, so he wanted to confirm the source of the sound, but even with his powers of observation, he couldn't find it.
And a voice came from his heart.
"Hear, warriors of order."
The voice of the Steel Python slowly vibrated deep in Joshua's heart. He was extremely serious at this time, and his hoarse voice was extremely serious: "What you hear is the wail of a civilization when it is extinct, and it is their name. The cry when disappearing from the world, these are the remains of the world, the ashes of fire, the long-gone kingdom of death—that is, the voice of the evil god of chaos in your mouth."
"Is this the voice of the Evil God of Chaos?"
He whispered to himself, then looked up at the sky. After a while of silence, Joshua shook his head and smiled: "Just by sound, you can make the earth's gravity unbalanced. It is worthy of being an evil god... Is it coming?"
"No, of course not. 'Famine' has already left and is looking for a new target... Now, it has noticed the existence of fire in the distance and ordered its only remaining servants in this world to extinguish the fire."
"Roar ah ah ah!!"
Amidst the strange and harsh sounds of insects, three huge roars sounded at the end of the earth. Three huge monsters, which were not inferior to the previous Jiyi Desolate God, appeared in Joshua's field of vision. .
Among them, there are huge carapace monsters that look like unicorn bugs, and there are also multi-legged giant bugs that look like spider centipedes. The strangest one seems to be a combination of a dragonfly and a bee, with a tail spine that is tens of meters long at the end of its slender body. , surrounded by a purple-blue halo, they have different shapes, but there are a few things in common - that is, these monsters all have the ultimate strength, and the aura of chaos is extremely strong.
"Is it the three-headed wild god of extreme will again..."
After Joshua saw these three monsters, he couldn't help but frown. Although he had just received a new talent and his injuries had been repaired, even so, in his own estimation, he could only fight at full power. Trying to deal with a Jiyi Huangshen.
But now, three of them came at once, which really made him think too highly of him.
But even so, he did not show the slightest fear. The corners of Joshua's mouth curved up, revealing his white teeth. He faced the three huge monsters that were rapidly approaching, and showed a smile full of fighting spirit.
And the voice of the Steel Python appeared deep in the warrior's heart again.
"Your world is being watched by evil gods. In addition to famine, plague and another evil god are also watching that world."
He did not exaggerate at all, but simply stated the facts he knew: "Descendant of Steel, although you rejected me, no matter what your choice is, whether you want to fight or protect, you need strength."
Indeed, Joshua could not refute this statement.
And Kallis, the Steel Python, smiled and said to Joshua: "Now, try this power first."
The deep voice became fainter and fainter until it became ethereal. On the contrary, some powerful force penetrated Joshua's body in an instant.
The cyan crystal in his hand seemed to be stimulated by something. After a violent flash, it gradually began to sink into Joshua's arm. Then, it turned into a stream of light and came to the warrior's forehead, forming a crown. mark.
"So... is this the Soul Burner that Moria said?"
Joshua looked thoughtfully at his hands, red fighting spirit ignited in them, and then gradually transformed into black fluctuations.
The murderous intention fluctuates like ink, slowly spreading in the atmosphere. Under a certain power given by the Steel Python, this glorious power that belongs exclusively to Joshua reveals its true nature.
Countless black and tiny soul fragments formed a series of fluctuations. Part of the souls of countless creatures killed by Joshua were turned into the strength of warriors. These souls burned slowly, mixed with Qiao Xiu. Xiuya's will became his power of glory.
The more he fights, the stronger he becomes. This is his unique power.
Now, Joshua's whole body was enveloped by black fluctuations of murderous intent. Under the flash of the crown mark on his forehead, the thick black murderous intent began to ignite little sparks. As the sparks expanded, his entire armor became like a The broken porcelain was full of cracks, and among the cracks scattered in a network, there was a flickering firelight.
Ashes, mixed with sparks, scattered from the edge of the armor, like wandering fragments of murderous intent. Flashing red light spots began to flutter in the wind, between light and dark, as if its owner was burning.
