Chapter 881 Promotion to Demigod
boom! boom! boom!
The bullets shot down from above very rhythmically, and were easily blocked by Ash and Vichy.
Although he knew that they were approaching him, the demigod gunner had no sense of urgency at all. His shooting was not so much an attack as a greeting to them.
There is no doubt that there is a trap laid by the demigod gunner, but Ash and the others have no other choice. From the moment they entered the building, they entered a dead end carefully planned by Gunslinger. If they had just chosen to escape towards the door, even the door might collapse.
A magician can be greedy for life and afraid of death, but he must not be afraid of fighting and escaping. Of course, more importantly, even at this moment, Yaxiu and Weixi still believe that their side has a chance of winning. As long as they can get within seven steps of the demigod gunslinger, their swords/halberds will definitely be faster than bullets!
From the beginning, only one of them and the demigod gunner could leave alive.
"How many virtual wings do you still have?" Wei Xi suddenly asked.
Ash hacked away a bullet and replied casually: "Sword-colored virtual wing."
"Where's the silver and gold? Gone?"
"Gone."
Wei Xi glanced at Niya: "Just to save her?"
Niya pursed her lips. Although she didn't speak, she didn't avoid it either. She stared directly at the maid.
"If you had been there at that time, I would have flown over to save you." Ashi replied, "Although I will feel very stupid afterwards."
"But I will not break your two virtual wings." Wei Xi said: "Did she trigger the mysterious chain, or did the other Six Nations legions trigger the mysterious chain?"
"It's because Master Fanxing triggered the mysterious chain!" Yaxiu said word by word: "If you want to avenge me so much, I don't mind you going to trouble Master Fanxing."
The implication is that I mind if you cause trouble for Niya. Wei Xi naturally understood Ash's subtext and raised her eyebrows, but at this moment Feili pulled the corner of her clothes, and the maid had no choice but to frown and use the opportunity to block the bullets to skip the topic.
Ya Xiu looked at Wei Xi suspiciously. He wouldn't be surprised at all if Wei Xi brought trouble to him, but just now Wei Xi was targeting Niya overtly or covertly, which was very strange. Niya didn't offend her either.
But when Ash thought about it, she had been going through a series of battles during her menstrual period, and she had a moody personality. She might just want to kill them all when she found an opportunity to quarrel with them, or it might be because she was worried about the next battle. Ash became impatient due to his lack of combat power.
If every virtual wing is an opportunity to take action, then Ashu, who only has the sword-colored virtual wing left, can only take one more action at most.
So Ash said: "If necessary, I will not be stingy with my virtual wings."
"But if you lose all the virtual wings, you will become a mortal like me." Wei Xi said: "It doesn't matter if you are a silver, gold, or holy magician. You can also condense the virtual wings through non-combat methods. But you are a legendary magician, and without any magic power, even if you can enter Ruby Mountain in the future, you will not be able to condense the fourth virtual wing through battle."
"Are you willing to become a useless person?"
"I'm not willing to give up, but I won't give up." Ya Xiu replied: "As long as I survive, I will always have a chance."
"Even if you return to another world, do you think the Sword Princess and the Witch will still want you?" Wei Xi asked back: "In my era, many couples would often abandon the other if one of them became a magician. As the saying goes, 'The first sword of a magician is to kill the person you like first'. And now you have fallen from a legend back to a mortal. As legends, the Sword Princess and Witch can really accept the mediocrity of their partners?"
Fili raised her head sharply and stared at Ash, waiting for an answer. Although Niya didn't move much, she unconsciously pricked up her ears.
"What do I usually do?" Ashus asked.
Vichy said unceremoniously: “Eat, drink, and be merry.”
"What do you think I would do if I came back to reality?"
"Eat, drink, have fun and sleep with the Sword Princess Witch?"
"If I returned to reality and became a useless person, what do you think I would do?"
"...Eat, drink, have fun and sleep with the Sword Princess and the Witch?"
Ash looked like "As expected of me": "I think they have long accepted the mediocrity of their partners."
While they were talking, they had already reached the fifth floor, followed by the sixth and seventh floors, and then the eighth floor where the demigod gunslinger was. Ash signaled everyone to stop. After waiting for a moment, when the cry of a gryphon being shot sounded from the eighth floor, he waved his hand suddenly and led everyone to rush upward with all their strength!
The sixth and seventh floors are definitely the areas where the demigod gunners are most likely to attack. You must take advantage of the opportunity for the Six Nations Legion to interfere with the demigod gunners and rush over!
But just when they stepped onto the sixth floor, the sound of gunfire that had been leisurely suddenly became violent.
boom! boom! boom!
The emergency light, which was always on and had no power, was shattered.
The demigod gunner did not attack them, but smashed all the emergency lights first. Because the fire doors on every floor were closed and there were no emergency lights, the entire fire escape was filled with darkness and not even a trace of light could penetrate.
No light…can’t see…
Ash's hair stood up in an instant, and with a thought, the sanctuary instantly unfolded to protect everyone, and then he used his poor swordsmanship intuition to dance the dagger——
clang!
"Huh? A flash of sword?"
Rajesh retracted his blunderbuss, blew out the blunderbuss-colored smoke from the gun's mouth, and said with a smile, "But my penetrating bullets cannot be broken with a flash of the sword."
In the darkness, Niya immediately hugged Ash when he groaned and fell down. She stretched out her hand to touch him and her whole body started to tremble: "Your heart..."
"It scratched the heart, it's not a fatal injury." Ash tried his best to breathe calmly, but still coughed up a large mouthful of blood foam: "The holy realm is useless! It's a bullet that penetrates the space! In a dark environment, he can use miracles to his heart's content!"
Although it didn't hit his heart, it penetrated his body and broke his spine. Even with "Le Sword" for pain relief, the damage to his spine was enough to temporarily paralyze Ash!
Feili groped over and helped Ash to the wall and put him down. She reached out and touched a hand of blood. She was so panicked that she almost cried: "You bled a lot!"
This was not a normal gunshot wound, but a round hole directly punched in Ash's heart. Ash's muscles couldn't automatically gather to stop the bleeding, and the blood naturally escaped unscrupulously in the dark.
Feili almost subconsciously reached out to block the wound, but she encountered another wet hand that was also trembling. She took a deep breath, grabbed Niya's hand, and pressed Ash's wound together, as if the two of them together could fight against the mysterious fate.
But Ash is very calm. Without the virtual wings, the sanctuary is useless and his body is paralyzed. He can no longer leave. In the eyes of the demigod gunner, he is a living target.
What's interesting is that when death was really about to happen, Ash didn't have much fear. He was just worried that he would cause trouble to Igura, Harvey, Sword Princess, and Witch.
Should I hope that there is no hell in this world, so I will not suffer in it, or should I hope that there is hell in this world, so that I will meet you again one day?
"Vichy, take them away." Ashus said softly, "This is my last order."
The sound of shooting came from the eighth floor. It was obviously the demigod gunner dealing with the Six Nations Legion approaching him. When he frees his hands, a real storm of bullets will come.
The demigod gunslinger only fired one miracle bullet just now. It was definitely not a restriction, nor was it to slowly kill them. He was simply testing whether the mysterious chain would work. If Ash guessed correctly, the piercing bullet just now was cast with silver magic power. Even if the mysterious chain was triggered, it would only break the demigod gunner's silver virtual wings.
Since the mysterious chain was not triggered, the demigod gunslinger had nothing to worry about. Ash can't escape, but Vichy and the others might still have a chance, as long as they can break the fire door and rush out——
despair.
There was the sound of stamping feet on the ground in front of Ya Xiu. Even if it was too dark to see anything, Ya Xiu could faintly feel a figure standing in front of him just by relying on the flow of air.
"If you want me to be buried with you, just say so." Wei Xi's voice was still brisk: "I may not even be able to escape alone, let alone carrying these two burdens, and do you think they are willing to throw away this trash like you? "
"Then you can escape on your own." Ash coughed twice and said with a smile, "It would be nice to let this poisonous snake like you live to avenge me."
Wei Xi was startled, "You should have told me earlier."
boom! boom! boom! boom!
clang! clang! clang! clang!
The bullets and spiked steel pipes collided to create a symphony of metal, and the brief burst of sparks burned through the darkness for a moment. Just the turbulent air flow made Yaxiu and others feel like a strong wind was hitting their faces!
Although the opponent possesses semi-god-level gun skills, Vichy's spear and halberd faction also has legendary status! If Ash is right, Vichy also masters some kind of skill similar to a sword flash, and can use cold weapons to break all miracles without limit!
Vichy, the petite maid standing in front of them, was as tall as a mountain fortress at this moment, and no penetrating bullet could harm the three of them!
Suddenly, the roar of the Star Bullet Warriors came from the eighth floor, and the Demigod Gunslinger had to stop penetrating the barrage and turn around to deal with the Six Nations Legion. Ash immediately said: "Vichy, please quickly open the fire door and escape, maybe-"
However, Vichy neither moved nor answered, but stood blankly in front of them.
Ash was startled, and suddenly remembered something: In addition to cold weapons, a sword flash also required magic power to strengthen the body. If there is no magical power as a buffer, the kinetic energy released by cracking the miracle is simply not something that a mortal body can bear.
And all four of Vichy's virtual wings had been broken before that.
Snapped.
Vichy fell limply into Ash's arms, and the spiked steel pipe rolled on the ground. Feili wanted to reach out to help her up, but she broke away from Feili's hand, turned around and hugged Ash's neck, panting for blood, and asked in Ash's ear in a hoarse voice: "Tell me, do you want to die?"
"In no mood."
"Then there's nothing you can do. I don't have a way for you not to die, but if you want to die, I can give you a way to survive."
"What's the meaning?"
"I have a way to make that guy die immediately," Vichy's bloody breath breathed on Ash's earlobe: "But the price is that you and I will definitely die in the future."
Ash didn't hesitate: "Come on."
"I can't shout. Let me say something, you say something..." Wei Xi said weakly: "The only way to become a demigod..."
*
"The only way to become a demigod is to gather the fourth virtual wing and find the angel at the top of Ruby Mountain to accept the trial."
Rajesh shot all the Six Nations troops who rushed in, and suddenly heard this sentence coming from below.
Do you want to fight to your death through chatting?
"But no magician has ever been able to reach the top of Ruby Mountain again after condensing the fourth virtual wing." The other party continued: "Obviously, "the top of Ruby Mountain" is not the actual reference, and can even be used as a confusing factor. When understanding, you can Ignore this phrase for now. "
"Therefore, the only way to be promoted to demigod is to gather the fourth virtual wing and find an angel to accept the trial."
Although Rajesh had already killed all the Six Nations Legion that rushed in, he still couldn't help but want to continue listening. No legendary magician can resist the temptation to step into the realm of God.
"Since "the top of Ruby Mountain" does not actually refer to it, then "angel" naturally does not refer to the original angel. At this time, as long as you read the prerequisites again, everything will suddenly become clear. "
"No matter which country's legend it is, the most important symbol of an angel is its wings."
"And doesn't the magician who condenses four complete virtual wings look like an angel?"
"So the only way to become a demigod is for a four-winged magician to realize that he is an angel. His location is at the top of Ruby Mountain, and then——"
"Trial is coming."
When he heard the middle part, Rajesh was strongly aware of the danger, but he still couldn't resist the huge temptation to become a demigod. And when he finished listening to the last sentence, he found that his four virtual wings unfolded silently. .
He slowly raised his head.
The ceilings and tall buildings that should have existed now disappeared without a trace.
The boiling and raging darkness is heavier than the mountains and larger than the ocean. It collapses from the sky. If no one resists it, everything in the world will turn into dust.
Rajesh looked around and found that he was standing at the highest point. There was nothing higher than him in the whole world. Where he was was the highest peak, the top of Ruby Mountain.
He is an angel.
Ash looked blankly at the far darkness above that dominated everything. The building did not disappear, and the ceiling was still there, but they could see this darkness, even with their eyes closed. It ignored light, matter, entropy, and Trivial obstacles such as time and space.
Even the prison of the Kingdom of Stars is not worth mentioning in front of it.
"That is……?"
"That's right." Wei Xi hugged his neck and said feebly: "That's the fifth level of the virtual realm -"
"hell."
