Chapter 597 Choice (Thanks to the Leader of the Memory Covered by Time)
When the last body fell in a pool of blood, no one could stop Huai Shi's eyes.
Climb the last step, which is stained red.
Huai Shi finally reached the top of the tower and faced a hurricane from high altitude.
In the hurricane, he saw the solemn and sacred temple-like palace, the huge square in front of him, and the girl who had been waiting in front of the square for a long time.
Her long golden hair was flying in the air, like burning flames.
She held the stone-tooth sword and stared at Huai Shi who came from afar.
In the sky above her head, a huge scorching sun that does not belong here is burning vigorously - using a bronze ring engraved with countless patterns as a carrier, the projection of the first sun Tezcatlipoca shows Here, tyranny burned and enveloped the entire square.
At this moment, she was not wearing armor, and she no longer had the youthful and modern look of the past.
Wearing sacred robes and a crown inlaid with gems, his bare face and arms are outlined with bloody emblems and totems.
This is the shadow on the ground of the Smoke Mirror, the agent of the First Sun, the High Priest of Tezcatripoca.
Liz Hetmock is here.
Heavily armed, waiting for his enemies.
"Are you ready to defeat me?"
She raised her eyes and stared at Huai Shi, whose half body was stained red with blood.
"No."
Huai Shi sighed, lowered his head, and looked at the cracks on his chest and arms, as well as the metal scars formed after the silver blood potion healed.
Today, he can no longer be said to be in his prime.
It can be called the end of a strong crossbow.
Faced with the noble blood inheritor of the American pedigree, the future leader, Liz, who was armed to the teeth and occupied a favorable location, really had no confidence.
Even though they are at the same level, the other party's skills and experience are not inferior to mine, not to mention the countless border relics on him.
Even the bronze sun disk above the head that covers the entire square, just by sensing the violent source and divine power emerging from it every moment, one can understand how terrifying the power hidden in it is.
"Actually, I don't have much strength left. Although my physical strength can barely sustain it, less than one-third of the source of energy remains..."
Frankly speaking about his situation, Huai Shi solemnly begged: "So can you please make it a little easier here and let me go?"
Liz looked at him, expressionless.
He was not angry because of such shameless words, or he already knew that his opponent had never had the consciousness of being a warrior.
"I'm sorry, Huaishi, work is work."
She held the stone-toothed sword in her palm and responded indifferently: "What's more, besides work, there are also personal grudges."
"...I really have no way to refute this." Huai Shi smiled bitterly: "Believe me, I have also suffered from it, in all senses."
"Do you regret it?"
"I regret it so much." Huai Shi nodded sincerely, "Do you need me to apologize?"
"Confession won't help."
"But I still want to repent."
Huai Shi scratched her head, looked at the woman in front of her, felt a little embarrassed, and said tentatively: "I'm sorry? Can you forgive me? I think we can still talk, and if there is a chance, we can definitely become good friends. "
Liz didn't reply.
However, the stone-toothed sword in his hand twisted slightly in a subtle arc on the ground. Sparks burst out with the friction between iron and stone. The sharp stone teeth were already pointed at Huai Shi's throat.
ready.
Confession will not help.
Even if Huai Shi kneels here and is willing to offer her body to the Skinned God to atone for her sins, it will not change Liz's determination.
So, without further ado.
She no longer wanted to hear it.
In the dead silence, Huai Shi's expression gradually stiffened, and for a long time, he sighed helplessly: "As God's agent on earth, are you going to be indifferent to the cries of so many people?"
"The Smoke Mirror is not a benevolent god, make no mistake, Huai Shi."
Liz sneered: "In the First Age, once the people on earth began to waver in the face of hell, the sun would fall. Tezcatripoca transformed into a leopard and killed everyone in the world... one of its The name is Necoc Yaotl, which means 'the enemy of all parties'. Those who do not believe will not be saved, and those who believe may not survive.
The wind of impermanence never favors the human world, let alone hell? "
She said indifferently, "God will not show mercy to this place."
"But as Liz?"
Huai Shi took a step forward and asked again: "Liz Hetmock, as an ascendant and a human being with a benevolent nature, have you really never felt any compassion in your heart?"
"No."
Liz raised the stone-toothed sword coldly and told him word by word: "So, Huai Shi, please stop talking nonsense - if you want to get through from here, it is very simple. There is only one way, and that is to kill I.
Or, let me kill you, too...and I will personally send you to Hades. "
"good."
The last tenderness in Huai Shi's eyes slowly dissipated, and she gradually became solemn: "Then, just as you wish, Liz, Liz Hetmock."
He raised the sword of virtue in his hand, but the blade quickly collapsed and disappeared without a trace.
Move forward and take the first step.
Meeting her cold eyes.
"Liz, you are indeed an opponent that I can't defeat if I don't go all out, but even if I defeat you, I'm afraid I won't have any strength left.
I still want to retain this strength to do more important things. "
"So, I leave the choice to you——"
Once again, he took a step forward.
Walking into the light of the sun, with bare hands, he walked step by step towards the girl blocking the way.
"I will pass from here next, but I will not fight with you." Huai Shi looked into her eyes and told her seriously: "If you think what I do is meaningless, then kill me here. , I won’t resist.”
Step one, step two, then step three...
Stepping into the frenzy of murderous intent and letting the premonition of death engulf her, Huai Shi stared at Liz calmly, accepting the anger and hatred calmly.
forward.
Step by step...
Nothing wavered.
"You are really unrepentant, Huai Shi."
In the silence, Liz's eyes became colder little by little: "It's so stupid to pin your victory or defeat on the mercy of others."
"Sorry, I had no choice."
Huai Shi moved forward calmly: "But Liz, you still have it."
"Now, there is an opportunity right in front of you. You can choose to save them, like me, or let them fall into the abyss... to build your heaven on whining and hell."
For a moment, Liz seemed to be shaken.
But soon, the eyes became as hard as iron, and there was no longer any weakness or wavering, only a coldness.
"This is hell, Huai Shi... why can mercy be found here?"
She whispered softly, spitting out her last pity: "There is no cure here, just like you... You must recognize the reality!"
At that moment, the stone-toothed sword shook violently and roared.
The spirit of the leopard spirit rises from it, and along with Liz's source of essence, flows in the secret ceremony, and the endless smoke rises towards the bronze sun above the sky!
"O ever-changing wind, please bring disaster!"
Liz raised her head and declared to the world in front of her: "The glory of the world ends here, and eternal darkness arises from the night——"
As a result, the endless flames seemed to be given substance, hanging down from the sun disk, thousands of strands gathered together, and wrapped around the stone-toothed sword blade!
The ancient sword blade burned red in an instant.
In Liz's hand, there was a squeaking sound.
The premonition of death eroded Huai Shi's heart like never before, making his soul tremble and feel the divine power moving in the sky.
It was undoubtedly a remnant from the gods.
The reflection of the miracle on the ground.
When the violent flames dissipated, the bronze sun disk in the sky revealed a solemn mirror made of obsidian. The mirror is eternally dark, as if reflecting the end and future of this world.
But in that darkness, a solemn outline emerged.
A huge and withered skeleton sat in the sun, dead and desolate, as if it had already died with the old world.
But now, under Liz's call, green flames ignited in the dark eye holes.
There was a ray of red condensation, just like the last glimmer of light at the end of dusk.
Falling from the fingers in front of its knees.
The blood light fell on the cracked blade, making the stone-toothed sword wail, shake violently, and be overwhelmed.
Revealing endless cruelty and ferocity——
"Receive the fruits of your suffering, Huaishi."
Liz said goodbye in anger: "This is the last afterglow you can see!"
At that moment, the stone-toothed sword fell.
Towards Huaishi, who is close at hand.
The sky and the earth are dark.
The bronze sun suddenly shattered, and infinite power rested on this sword, causing all things to be drowned in death.
——Miraculous Mark·The First Cause of Fall!
This is a repeat of the end of the First Era. Tezcatripoca extinguished himself and indulged in violence, causing the afterimage of the destruction of the era to rest on this sword and turn into a dim light that completely destroyed everything.
This is the last kindness He left to the world.
Before the endless darkness comes, the last ray of sun!
And it was at that moment that Liz's eyes reflected the young man who was moving forward alone and facing death calmly.
And...the dark tide following him!
incredible.
It is the phantom of the past that follows redemption, and it is also the remnant of the perfection that once ushered in redemption.
Countless figures gathered in one place, like a long march with no end or boundary in sight. It seemed to cover the sky and the earth, forming a huge scale that swallowed up the entire world.
Coming from different places, different species, and even different eras, those souls longing for redemption followed that lonely figure.
When he moved forward alone, he didn't know that millions of people were following him.
In the fleeting residual light, those unfamiliar or familiar faces were revealed in front of Liz's eyes, which made her eyes widen in disbelief.
Among those completely different groups, a vaguely familiar phantom appeared... It was Ivy's uniform!
Those who died in this struggle, the patients who suffered severe injuries and fell into a coma, and the poor people who lost themselves in the assimilation of hell.
But now, those silhouettes that should have settled in the deepest part of hell are standing behind Huai Shi.
Standing in front of Liz.
Watching her quietly, along with tens of thousands of people, walked towards the destruction given by the gods in front of them.
"You guys..." Idiots! "
Liz lowered her eyes sadly, and the sword blade fell.
