Chapter 540: Death in Substitution

"What is that...?"

Mumbling to himself, it would be fine if he hadn't noticed it before. But when Dionysus followed Amon's reminder and caught the faintly visible red dot, a feeling of oppression surged into his heart without knowing when.

Standing here, separated by a long distance, the unknown thing seemed so small.

But considering the distance between the two sides, the unknown existence might actually be as big as a star.

The red light flickered, like a blinking eye. And after each flash, the unknown celestial body seemed to span billions of miles of star fields.

At a very fast speed, it rushed all the way to the direction where the two were. But after observing for a while, Dionysus came up with another completely different answer.

"No, it's not coming towards us, or rather... our location is just 'passing by' for it at best."

"The distance in the starry space is too far, so it looks like it's rushing towards us."

"But it's actually just attracted by something. The place it really wants to go is the location of [Hall of Valor], not the edge of the starry world where we are."

He spoke in a deep voice and corrected Amon's statement. According to the trajectory of the red dot's movement, they are indeed not in the direction directly ahead.

However, after coming to the conclusion at this moment, Dionysus's face became more solemn.

Attracted by something, the red stars, moving in the starry sky, gave him such a strong sense of uneasiness... When these conditions came together, searching through his memory, Dionysus could only get the only result.

"It's it... It was attracted by the demonic aura on Hercules and the [Fallen Corona] in the Zodiac Great Barrier."

"They are in the same place, so they are sensed by each other... Amon, I'm afraid we are really in trouble."

"What is it?"

Amon asked with a raised eyebrow.

"It is also the son of Typhon, but was born after his death."

"If the Hydra and the Giant Lion inherited the power of the demon king of all demons, then they inherited the power of the other side of it."

"On the day when Typhon fell, there were countless powerful beings in the world who came to the world because of his whale fall."

"It is one of them, [Ancient Evil·Death Star]."

Dionysus's face was not very good. He never expected that he would encounter the ancient evil on the first day of entering the starry sky, and what made him even more headache was that he was not the opponent at all.

Not only himself, but even Hercules might not be able to win the battle.

After all, unlike those demons with unique powers and called "mechanical monsters", defeating them can be tricky. Once their unique "mechanism" is cracked, it is not necessarily impossible to win even if the power is insufficient.

But facing the ancient evil, these means are just useless. Not to mention their special abilities, their power alone is also a real true god level.

Damn it, in the records of the Olympian God Court, since the fall of Typhon, those powerful and immortal ancient evil creatures have scattered as soon as they were born.

Just like this one born on the ancient star, it has been hidden in the depths of the starry sky and has not appeared for thousands of years.

No one expected it to suddenly appear today, and judging from the opponent's speed, Dionysus and his men would definitely not be able to avoid it.

I will definitely not be able to beat him. I will not die.

In order to prevent his offspring without a divine position from dying on the journey with Hercules, Zeus left a means of saving his life on Dionysus' body early.

I can survive, but what about the other two?

No matter what the reason is, if Hercules just went out for a trip and came back to find that all his teammates were dead except for himself who had just arrived a few days ago, then no matter how he explained it at that time, I am afraid he would not be able to gain his trust again.

"...Amon, you go back first."

Dionysus made a prompt decision and judged the current situation.

"Go back, what about you?"

"I will stay... Don't worry, I have my own means."

"Don't forget how I came here. If I really encounter danger, I will be fine."

He responded casually. Although he had some good feelings for this enthusiastic young man, Dionysus didn't think he could help him in this matter.

Ancient evil things... even the weaker ones can often rely on their terrible pollution and immortal life to fight against weak divine power.

And those powerful beings can know the clues by just looking at the sealed [Fallen Corona].

So now it seems that he can only find a way to stop the approach of [Death Star].

The worst result is that these two guys can't die here.

"It doesn't matter. I can't die anyway."

"If the Father's method doesn't work, I will at most exhaust my divine power and fall into eternal sleep. Then I will be rescued one day, and it won't take too long."

Seeing that Amon did not argue but returned to the Star Shuttle obediently, Dionysus felt a little disappointed while relieved.

Faced with the crisis of life and death, this enthusiastic young man still chose to save himself...but this is exactly what he wanted.

After this, he thought he could erase his identity as a latecomer and completely integrate into this team.

······

Since the creation of the world, the starry sky has undergone several changes.

Before the first era came, when the sky and the earth were just born, Chaos had no concept of the starry sky.

Above the earth is the sky, and under the sky is only the earth. Only the friction between the surface of the Father of Heaven and the Mother of Earth brought up some "dust", which floated in the sky and became the prototype of the oldest stars.

Later, until the twelve Titans were born and Uranus ascended to the throne of the God King, the first era really came, and the underworld under the earth finally became a entity under the interweaving of the power of several primitive gods, and the starry sky was no longer a dispensable virtual finger, but was also formed under the tide of the two primitive gods of the dark night and the dissipation of the power of the Father of Heaven.

But at this time, there were still no real stars in the starry sky in the future.

In the endless darkness, ancient celestial bodies with some residual power from the beginning of creation floated in the sea of ​​stars, and countless lightless celestial bodies that followed the birth of Koos were arranged in the vast starry sky.

Just as the natural motto on the oracle slate was not controlled by Mnemosyne's [Innate Words], Koos could not extend his authority to those celestial bodies that were older than himself.

And it was on these celestial bodies born at the beginning of all things, under the influence of the power of the mother tree on Typhon, and under the corruption of the flesh and blood of the King of All Monsters, [Ancient Evil·Death Omen Star] was born.

These records are not secrets among the gods of Mount Olympus. Although no one is willing to talk about the demon ancestor who once made them extremely ashamed, even out of fear of its power, these materials have never been lost.

No mistakes in one sentence, one post, one content, one book, one bar, one 6, one 9!

Therefore, Dionysus is very familiar with this, and can even recite it backwards.

"【Death Star】【Blood Corridor】..."

"After Typhon's death, these two are the most powerful among the ancient evils that exist in the form of flesh and blood."

"But the latter wandered on the earth, instinctively craving to devour the blood full of divine essence, and was repelled by the gods several times. In the end, it was dismembered and suppressed by the Queen of Heaven holding the 【Thunder Arrow】 and the goddess of wisdom Athena who was still active in the world at that time."

"And the former has been wandering in the starry sky. Because the starry sky is vast and vast, no one is willing to cause this trouble..."

"But now, it is probably driven by instinct to rush to the remains of those big demons after their death."

The King of All Demons will not be resurrected, even if it is similar to its power.

Even if there is a being who gathers the power scattered in the world after Typhon's death, it still cannot be compared with the one who used to be.

Dionysus didn't know why the God King was so confident about this. After all, few people in Chaos knew that Zeus himself was the greatest heir to Typhon's legacy, but he believed that the God King should not have lied to him.

So the move of [Death Star] this time was just a waste of time, destined to be meaningless, but for the ancient evil creature without ordinary people's rationality, it should not care about this.

"... Just a little flesh and blood can corrupt an ancient star..."

"... The remaining power can shape ten evil creatures that I can't match..."

"... The king of all monsters... Is this the existence that can fight with the Father God and even have the upper hand at one time..."

Waiting for it, under Dionysus's gaze, in just a short moment, the red dot that was originally far away in the sky has become a huge star that occupies his entire field of vision and is difficult to guess.

Looking around, on the surface of this ancient star, there is no filthy flesh and tentacles, or adhesions of fascia as imagined.

The bloody land was covered with craters left by meteorite impacts, and there were abnormal ups and downs under the moist soil from time to time.

On the front of the planet, a huge rift was split in the middle, almost dividing the entire star in two. Like a vertical pupil, observing the creatures in the star world.

The indescribable mysterious tone sang a moving song in the void, which made Dionysus's mind sway.

The other party was not coming for him. In the chaotic consciousness of the [Star of Death], both the energy and the breath that attracted it only existed in [Hall of Valor].

Logically speaking, the three people including himself would only be easily ignored by the other party, rather than ushering in any harm.

But Dionysus knew that things were not that simple.

Because no matter what, his essence was a god, and the star shuttle was stained with the breath of natural closeness to the stars.

"Fortunately, compared to what really attracts it, I am just a small corner, and its real attention will not be on me."

"And its most likely way of dealing with it is nothing else..."

The power that was overwhelming like heaven and earth became more and more terrifying, but just as Dionysus guessed, the huge celestial body did not care about the ant on the side of the road, but rushed along the established track all the way to the distant starry battlefield.

Just near the location of the few people, the huge celestial body shook slightly, as if it had discovered their existence.

Then, under the gaze of Dionysus, the surface of the blood-colored star cracked, and a piece of debris peeled off at a speed that seemed slow but actually fast, falling on the trajectory after it left.

Like the mother tree from which their power comes, evil creatures often have the ability to create offspring through division.

Although the ‘big meal’ was just ahead, [Death Star] did not forget to take this little dessert into his pocket.
