Kou Hua seemed to have gone crazy suddenly. Regardless of the enemy and me, he made the battlefield like this, and then floated on the hall and said some crazy things. Brando didn't fall off by grasping the bridge. He looked up and saw that Lizardman Swordmaster was higher than himself, also grasping the wall, but with the other hand holding Duke Anlek. Brando glanced around and didn't see where the little dragon was. I don't know if she succeeded, but the star-shaped stone in Anlek's hand has disappeared. Seeing his furious look, I didn't want to lose it. It is taken away.

The black-robed knights brought by Anlek have already fallen into pieces. Except for the excellent luck, most of the survivors are the existence of more than the elements of civilization. Bran has a lot of them, and counts it. Apart from those floating in the middle of the hall, there are as many as eleven in total. Even if two or three lucky ones are excluded, there are eight to nine. This number is already extremely scary. You must know that there is another person outside by him. Dejar, who was sullied, had already surpassed Eruin's entire upper-level power.

The situation in the hall now looks like this—

At the top of the hall, only Mephistopheles was the only one, and a few below, Veronica and the black knights who fought with her before, there were almost four or five people. Floating next to the cracked purple crystal was Kou Hua, who was muttering to himself. The platform on which the throne of Milos was placed under her feet had already collapsed under a huge impact value and rolled into the abyss. Almost none of the wizards were spared. Only the wizard of the elemental civilization level later flew up from below staggeringly, obviously also suffering serious injuries.

And around the hall, the black-robed knights and Elu knights who previously occupied the long bridges suffered heavy losses due to the noble knights. Except for the few who reacted quickly and hung on the cliff, most of them have fallen. The hall was filled with smoke and dust. Apart from Anlek, the lizardman sword master, and Akane, Brando had not found anyone familiar with him. He was very worried about the safety of Charles, Medissa and the little prince. , Especially the huge mouth of Frostbite Teeth below is climbing up little by little, and countless teeth inside are spinning like a meat grinder, and the ones that fall are obviously hardly spared.

After the destructive force that swept the entire hall disappeared, the line of law began to stabilize again. Brando soon | felt that he had regained the ability to fly, and then let go of the bridge and flew, but he didn't dare Too close to the red-ringed lizardman sword master, from the sword just now, he felt that the other party was more threatening than Veronica at the time of the trade wind ring, although the strength of the two was only between the first ones. , But one is good at defensive swordsmanship, and the other is good at offensive swordsmanship, the difference is clear at a glance.

And since the star-shaped stone is no longer in Anlek’s hands, Brando does not intend to stay here for a long time. Under the cover of the diffuse smoke, he carefully flies in the direction of Qian—the hall is humming and the surrounding There are obvious cracks on the walls, which means that there may be a second collapse. Brando doubted that the dome with the spiral hall above would collapse this time, and that place would not stay here for long.

"Kou Hua, what are you doing!" At this moment, Anlek's low and hoarse roar came from behind him.

No one thought that Kou Hua would choose this time to retaliate. She was waiting for the opportunity to hide her minions before. The demons said that this woman was rebellious, and she was right. Anlek's face was green, but at this moment it was too late to regret, Kou Hua single-handedly turned the entire battlefield into a mess and completely overturned his plan.

"You don't want to imprison me, human." Kou Hua smiled triumphantly: "Don't you want to see the waking god, you will see it soon."

"What's the meaning?"

Kou Hua did not answer. Suddenly she showed a look of extreme pain on her face, opened her mouth slightly, and screamed. A puff of black smoke emerged from her mouth, followed by her eyes, nostrils and ears; billowing black smoke gathered above the girl. Formed into a vague human form, Kou Hua himself lowered his head feebly, curled up in the air, his skin was pale and almost bloodless, like an empty shell without strength and soul.

"You don't understand what happened in that war, human." A voice like thunder came from the rolling black smoke, and Kou Hua's icy voice could be heard vaguely: "It was a few epochs, dusk The only time it was repelled."

"It's impossible!" Anlek roared: "After the Battle of Babel, even the gods have failed. The gold races have almost died, and the silver people can't escape. This is the greatest chaos in history. Victory." The Lord Duke raised his arms, screaming frantically: "What else does Voend have now? The gods have already abandoned this land. The most glorious era has passed, and what remains is The worms who fly in the camp, wait until dusk arrives again, what will these garbage-like things resist? They are still fighting for power, and they are living and dreaming for some short-lived illusions. Such a group of people is the so-called civilization?"

At the end, he was almost contemptuous: "It's ridiculous."

There was a momentary silence in the hall, but the voices of the believers chanting prayers enthusiastically could be heard faintly.

"You're crazy, Anlek." Veronica never thought that a person would be crazy. She never believed in the fallacy that everything will come together. The war between the dragon of twilight and the gods is far beyond testable. , Only those cultists with ill-conceived minds will praise these illusory myths as the bible. She doesn't know what the future of Warend will be, or it will be destroyed, or it will continue, but these are not important. For humans with short lives, the most important thing is now.

Just like for her, as long as the Cruz Empire exists for one day, she must fight for it one day, whether it is for the family or the empire itself.

Grey Sword Saint Mephistopheles also shook his head.

"Really ridiculous," the voice in the black smoke sneered: "Who told you that the gods left Vonder after defeat, and who told you that the golden race died on the battlefield at dusk? The people of silver? The reclusiveness is not because of frustration. Some of the human legends that have been passed down to this day are not groundless, but you don't want to believe it."

"But there is one sentence you made right," sighed in the black smoke: "Today's Voend is indeed no longer the classical and glorious era."

"When authority is handed over to mortals, the age of gods will never return."

Brando is quietly passing through the smoky area at the bottom of the hall, and he will soon return to the place where he had entered the hall before—that is, on the other side of the direction where Anlek was. The dispute between the two parties above the hall is going on fiercely. This scene is a bit like the lengthy opening remarks when many important BOSSs in the game appear, but the solemn atmosphere does cover the entire hall, and everyone can feel it. A storm of energy was gathering out of thin air-Brando felt a little bit, and then he realized that the key to summoning the God of Awakening was Kou Hua, and it seemed that no one had brought Kou Hua to this place in the game.

But this design is indeed too painful, although from the plot point of view, it seems to be reasonable, Brando can't help but slander the planning in his heart.

He glanced down, and Frostbite Fang had risen hundreds of feet, almost close at hand. This discovery shocked him, and hurriedly flew up a few times. Kou Hua and Veronica were almost above his head, but he didn't dare to fly up to let others discover, especially Kou Hua. , Who knows whether this demigod-like existence will bear the hate of the previous events

"This is an era in which each chooses its own destiny, so please take care of yourself." The voice rumbling in the black smoke still echoed.

Under the black smoke, Kou Hua's body moved her eyelashes slightly, "No," she whispered softly.

Black Smoke sighed: "You are free, Kou Hua."

"And I will be born again."

Mephistopheles' complexion suddenly changed: "Get out of the way!" He shouted. As soon as his voice fell, the cloud of black smoke covering Kou Hua's head suddenly spread, rising to the ceiling of the hall, and several dodges. The black-robed knight who was too late was involved, and before he let out a scream, he disappeared completely without a trace. Assimilation, Veronica also changed her face. This is the most typical chaotic force. She hurriedly flew upwards, but unfortunately it was still a little late. Kou Hua’s dark soul rose extremely fast, and she was about to lose her face. She wrapped in, but at this moment, the female legionnaire felt that someone was pulling herself on it, dragging her out of the mortal area.

Veronica turned pale, and when she looked back, she found that Mephistopheles was the one who made the shot. She was a little surprised and inexplicable, but then there was a blush on her pale face, frowning and complaining: "What about your aristocratic manners, Mr. Mephistopheles, how can you grab a lady's hair."

Mephistopheles did not answer, but just glanced at her.

"Thank you." The female army commander was startled for a moment, and then replied in a low voice.

Dramatic changes are taking place in the hall.

The black smoke had completely melted into the dome, and that voice made a burst of arrogant laughter, and the silver bell-like laughter lingered in the whole hall for a long time. But the change did not stop there. The sound of resonance in the hall has become louder and louder. Brando saw that several long bridges had been completely broken, falling into the abyss below, and being bitten by the frost climbing up from below. Zhifang bit it, and the latter had a good appetite and was not picky at all. Whether it was stone or metal, they all smiled, like a black hole approaching.

On the walls around the hall, long cracks criss-crossed, some of them were several inches wide, the whole hall was crumbling, big chunks of rocks fell from above, and a'skylight' was opened on the dome in a short while. It's just that the sky outside the skylight is not a bright sky, but a dark mountain. In fact, the whole mountain was shaken at this moment. The rock wall split into two parts, half of which had begun to sink slowly.

"Damn!" Brando finally reacted-this is going to be a landslide.

"Quit now!"

He looked around, and finally found the exit where he had come in before. He only took a look. The place was already covered with mud and sand like a sand castle, and then fell apart and turned into a pile of rubble. There were a total of seventeen arches in the hall, and it seemed that half of them had disappeared in an instant. Brando was dumbfounded, and the remaining third disappeared. He hurriedly flew to the last few remaining exits, but at this moment, he felt a mass of something hit him from above, knocking him down—the thing even made a muffled grunt, or The voice of a girl.

There were no women on Anlek’s side. Brando subconsciously thought it was one of Medissa, Qian or Shiduo, but the voice was not very familiar. He thought it might be Miss Scholar, so he picked it up with a backhand. He took the other person in his arms. But because of this delay, all the last few arches disappeared. Brando looked at it and burst into tears, because at this time the whole hall had obviously reached the end of its long life, and the walls on all sides fell towards him. After coming over, there is no way to avoid it.

At some point, the buzzing sound that seemed to come from the depths of the mountain became louder and louder, but Freya did not notice it. She quietly listened to Milos's narration. It was a long story, as if Bring her thoughts to that distant and glorious era. The tall towers standing in the sky, the temple like floating clouds, the golden people wearing white linen robes, crawling outside the palace made of gold, the air seems to be filled with a faint smell of vanilla, it is an orderly and civilized The world, and now, human beings seem to be struggling in ignorance.

After a long time, she blinked her eyelashes slightly, raised her head and asked, "In other words, the gods gave the power to choose fate to mortals. After that, the azure knight led the ancestors. Instead, they defeated the Dragon of Twilight. After the stars fell to the ground, in order to fulfill the promise, the gods stayed away from Vond and completely handed over this land to us. That glorious era is gone forever, and now Vond is a The era in which we choose our own destiny, no matter whether it will be destroyed or reborn in the future."

"You are smart," the gentle voice replied.

"But I still don't understand. Why can we do things that the gods can't do?"

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"Because you are citizens of this world, you don't have to fight against it."

Freya was slightly startled: "I'm sorry, I don't understand the meaning of this sentence."

"I remember I said that half of the blood of the evening is flowing in the body of the Dark Iron People, but unlike the bronze generation, you completely gave up your power, so you did not become those monsters whose reason was eroded by the darkness."

Freya nodded.

"That's the reason." The voice replied: "The world of Vaughan was woven from a chaos by Martha. When she lowered the law of Tiamat on the sea of chaos, the world was born. Our world The root of, comes from the order above the establishment and chaos, so from the beginning of the world, this opposition is rooted in it-the stronger the power of order, the stronger the resistance from chaos, and the power of chaos has no limit after all Yes, that is to say, one day, this power will even surpass the control of the gods, and our world will be wiped out-this is the origin of the dusk."

"In several epochs, Vaughan has actually experienced several destructions, and the history of the earliest golden people is far from being tested. This is the so-called mistake of the gods. In countless ages, the gods and other servant races The sages and wise men in China have been looking for ways to end this cycle of errors. We have established countless civilizations and orders, but every time, without exception, we have failed."

"Evening has come six times, and we have also failed six times."

"And the only time that came closest to success was at the end of the last epoch. Your hero, the azure knight, smashed the sky and caused the stars to fall to the earth. Vaughan parted because of this, but at the same time it really ended the twilight. This is the only time that civilization has not been completely wiped out. Although it has still been hit hard, it at least allows us to see the possibility of success."

"The root of everything comes from a proposal by the Dark Dragon."

"Is it Odin?" Freya interrupted suddenly.

"No, earlier than him." Although she can't see it, the girl can feel the master of that voice slowly shook her head: "The dark dragon of the previous generation has already been killed in the battle at dusk, but it is the same as Odin. , That is a very wise person. It was he who made us think about this problem in turn, not blindly strengthening the power of order, what we have to do is to preserve the fire of civilization, so we can create a weak civilization , It is no longer glorious, it can even be said that it has compromised with chaos, lacks power, is ignorant, and is even riddled with infiltration by the dragon of twilight, but this is the case, we almost succeeded."

"Because even if it is chaos, it is impossible to swallow itself."

Freya opened her mouth slightly, she vaguely felt that Milos seemed to be concealing something, but what this voice said was the most fantastic legend she had ever heard.

The gods actually compromised with the Twilight Dragon.

"No matter how bad it is, can it just exist?" Freya was a little uncomfortable, after all, no one wanted to be treated as a worm.

"No, little girl, civilization will grow." Milos's voice became a little proud: "This is the greatness of mother, because this time, it will be a civilization rooted in this world, no longer Created and interfered by us, it will bear the mark of the Twilight Dragon, grow up little by little, gradually grow, and finally merge with the origin of this world. At that time, no one can destroy it."

But civilization is civilization after all, and order is different from chaos after all. Freya vaguely felt that there was something wrong. She shook her head: "Will the dragon of twilight come then?"

The voice fell silent for a moment.

"Will do."
