Pillars of Ita

"Where is this place?" Tian Lan stared blankly at the floating starlight. The vast scene seemed shocking and magnificent, and the silver brilliance gathered into a line in the sky - a cantilever, like the Milky Way.

It flows slowly and is breathtaking.

she asked over her shoulder. However, this scene is not unfamiliar to Trixis. As a craftsman, the girl often has a glimpse of the essence of the world in the planetary engine of the magic furnace. The stars are intertwined. It is exactly like this, just like the sweater needle in the mother's hand, weaving with knitting thread. The scene after leaving this world.

But she had never put herself in such a situation, let alone other people. Dariel seemed to have a tendency to wake up from a coma. His eyelashes moved. Miss Poet was covering her chest with her hand. Miss Catman made a low sound. raving.

"This is the Sea of ​​Ether." Cui Xisi said in a daze. She has never been here, at least not in person - it was just a scene simulated in the planetary engine, and the real star sea is just like this moment -

Mi Ning is much more vast.

It is the foundation of the world and the origin of everything.

Although Fang Piao told her about this plan personally, and she even contributed to part of it, when she actually came here, Cui Xisi still felt a little dreamy - she turned back to Tianlan and said: "There's no need to try to wake her up. , this is the world outside of matter, and Dariel entered this world in this state. She has not woken up in reality, and she will not wake up here. "

"Then I'm going to hold her like this?" Tian Lan asked.

"You can just put her here. Essentially, it makes no difference." Trish replied.

Tianlan hesitated for a moment, feeling that she couldn't be so cold-blooded: "...Then I'd better hold her."

"It doesn't matter if you take her with you. Matter has no weight in this dimension." Cui Xisi turned around and looked at the flash of light on the horizon. The warm brilliance shone for a long time, like a luminous gem.

That was Luo Hao's last light. His steel-hard will was rising up like a dazzling sun, emitting a dazzling light - and he raised his head to look at Narsuyu, the Naga God - Iron Wei's abilities are meaningless in this space.

But will can erect a high wall.

Thus making it insurmountable even for a god.

"——The sea of ​​ether is the world of stars."

"There matter and elements are but illusions."

The torrential rain washed over the deck, and the rainwater formed various textures and flowed through the gaps between the wooden boards. Fang Lu was looking at the box and Luo Hao, and said: "At the end of this incident, we will definitely know each other." Go to Narsuyu, this god must be our last opponent. This plan is tailor-made for her. When the plan starts to be implemented, I need you to delay this Naga god for a certain period of time..."

"Delay the Naga God?" Luo Hao asked.

Fang Yu nodded slightly to the two of them.

Although this sounds incredible, in that world, steel is not a shield, but will is the sharp edge.

There is no natural barrier between humans and gods, and all miracles are possible.

Even Narsuyu had to stop and look up at the scene in front of her, this fat man with a hateful face - she frowned, stretched out a finger and tapped on the high wall.

Spider web-like cracks spread from a point on her fingertips, and the high wall disintegrated like ice and snow, like broken glass, cold and sharp, turning into countless shining fragments, falling one after another, and finally dissipated in none.

A sword blade was piercing out of the twisted space, heading straight for her door, but Narsuyu didn't even look in that direction, a shadow flew back, and finally turned into a box. Image, the young man shook and stood up.

The dark flames were swallowing up along his robe, and the power of the Holy Darkness was like maggots on the tarsus, but Box gritted his teeth as if nothing was wrong, pulled down the pointed wizard hat to cover half of his eyes, and lightly dusted the long sword. .

He took a step forward and once again escaped into the cracks in space.

And when the dimensional door opened, the narrow sword light once again came into Narsuyu's field of vision:

"act recklessly."

Finally annoyed, she stretched out her hand and a beam of sparks turned the box into ashes along with the sword in his hand.

Just like the charcoal statue, it disappeared with the wind and turned into nothingness. In the end, only an unwavering gaze remained, as if it still existed in the void - the young man whose gaze was hidden under the brim of the wizard's hat was staring at Looking at this Naga God, the non-existent sword blade in his hand is still pointing forward——

It even caused a slight tingling sensation on Narsuyu's skin, and the sword edge seemed to disappear at the last moment, which made her raise her head in surprise - what kind of power drives people to be so stubborn?

It's not like she hasn't seen the Chosen of Saints before.

But the boy seemed determined to fall in front of her.

That sharp will even almost caused her to have an illusion, breaking through her realm and leaving a shallow wound on her perfect body - of course, the illusion was just an illusion, even if it was broken by the lady of the balance and The Lords of Light have joined forces to hold them back, but it is still difficult for these mortals to hurt themselves at all.

Narsuyu was just a little surprised by the other party's will.

And that damn fat man is not like that. The high wall is collapsing, but the opponent has no intention of retreating. The opponent's will is disintegrating bit by bit and becoming fragmented, but he is still trying to build the last wall and connect every piece of it. Reshape the fragments...

Let the fragments form walls and the blood flow into rivers, but they still block her from moving forward.

It has never been heard that mortals can trap gods, even for a moment. Narsuyu stretched out her hand and gave a gentle push. Luo Hao's world of will finally collapsed completely, but she looked at the fat man and only looked at herself with contempt. , and gave himself a thumbs up.

Swipe down gently.

The next moment, he turned into white light and disappeared.

Even though she couldn't understand the meaning of that action, the meaning contained in it was self-evident, and Narsuyu's face had completely turned cold.

She couldn't believe that she couldn't even destroy the will of a few insects. In the end, she just used absolute power to erase them from the world. But she killed them, so what? For the first time, she felt a sense of crisis about her plan.

What's more, although Luo Hao and Xiang Xiang were eliminated, there was still one person present.

"You want to imitate them and waste your life in vain, but you can't stop me at all?" Narsuyu narrowed her eyes and looked at Adni beside her, "You think you can keep me, but you underestimated it. The true power of a god."

"Are you scared, Narsuyu?" Adni pulled out a dagger from behind her, held the dark dagger in her hand, raised her head and looked at the Naga God, with a calm expression: " Indeed, we can only keep your body and cannot limit your projection, but so what? "

"you know?"

Narsuyu was slightly shocked.

"I know, but they are not necessarily," Adni shook her head: "And I also know that even if you only come as a clone, our chances of fighting you are very slim. To compare with a god with a mortal body, I never thought But it’s a possibility.”

"Wise choice, in this case you don't have to waste your efforts," Narsuyu said: "Get out of the way, I can still give you a way to survive."

But Adni still shook her head.

She raised the dagger in front of her: "I am not the same as them, Narsuyu. I never believe that miracles will happen - but some people told me that he can defeat you, even if the possibility is slim -"

The girl raised her head and looked at the Naga God with bright eyes: "But I am still willing to choose to believe them once."

Because she will still keep her promise.

The Seven Seas Brigade has fulfilled every agreement it made with her, and the People of Light will never let down the allies who fought alongside them, ever since a thousand years ago.

The same will be true thousands of years later.

……

Miss Naturalist suddenly stopped, turned her head, and looked behind her.

From the chaotic vibration of the ether, she had silently felt something. Parker and Alyssa in front couldn't help but stop. They both turned around and looked at her, asking: "What's wrong? Why did you stop suddenly?"

"Luo Hao is dead, and so is the box," Jita pushed up her glasses, blinked her eyes and whispered, "There is another message, it should be from Miss Adni."

Alyssa was startled for a moment, then walked over and reached out and patted her shoulder gently: "Don't worry, this is the world of stars, the Sea of ​​Ether, the decisive battlefield set by the captain for us. This place is filled with stars, It is the opposite of the Dead Zone. Even Narsuyu cannot leave us here."

Jita nodded slightly.

"If you ask me, you don't have to worry so much," Parker shrugged. "Our opponent is another god. Why the hell should I say it again? And this time is much more dangerous than the last time. In that plan, we It’s possible for everyone to die.”

He put the crossbow on his shoulder, "Maybe we will follow in the footsteps of that damn fat man and the box soon."

"Can you say something nice?"

Alyssa was furious looking at this guy.

"What's the point of comforting yourself?" Parker curled his lips and said, "Look, she might be catching up soon."

Before he finished speaking, an icy breath descended into the space. Jita's expression changed drastically and she immediately opened her magic book. But before that, Miss Nightingale had already kicked the Papalal people. Kicked out.

Parker only felt a huge force coming, and he rolled several times in the starry sky like a rolling gourd. When he raised his head with stars in his eyes, he realized that Narsuyu had descended from the space. The Naga God, who has a body and a snake's tail, is grabbing at him with one claw.

At that moment, the Papalar man felt a chill all over his body. Although he seemed to have thousands of abilities on weekdays, he couldn't use them here. It seemed that his body was frozen, and he could only watch the opponent's giant claws covering him. come over.

He opened his mouth wide and his mind went blank - although he was not a newbie and had experienced many crises and had even faced evil gods and giant dragons, he had never been so helpless as this moment, as if he had lost everything. gain control over the body.

That wasn't even a metaphor, but in a physical sense the surrounding space was completely restricted, making it impossible for him to move and even making a sound became difficult. At that moment, Jita had already put her hand on the magic book and recited the spell:

"The king's car castles!"

The Naga God looked back, and the space seemed to be displaced at that moment. Miss Naturalist exchanged places with the Papalar in an instant, and at the moment when the exchange was completed, Parker finally felt that his body had returned to his own. under the control.

Narsuyu didn't even look at Jita, she immediately turned around and grabbed the Papalar with her claws again, but this time she had time to react, a shadow crack opened in the space, and Miss Nightingale jumped out of it. He came out, raised his dagger and stabbed Narsuyu.

"Run!"

At the same time, she shouted to the Papalars.

Parker finally reacted and took one last look back, only to see Alyssa being penetrated by Narsuyu in mid-air - he shuddered, although he knew that Miss Nightingale was not really dead, but I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Although as long as there is still starlight, the other party can be resurrected in a temple nearby.

But when it came to the end, he couldn't help but grit his teeth - these damn scaly monsters - Parker saw Narsuyu turn around and kill Miss Naturalist, and there was no one to protect her, so it was probably more dangerous than good.

Jieta died.

Then it was his turn.

Parker only felt the communication crystal on his chest flash slightly. When he looked down, he realized that it was the last message sent to him by Miss Naturalist:

"Parker, the will is the body, the mind is the agility, escape along the path of the starlight, leading her to-"

That message ended abruptly.

"It's unnecessary," the Papalar man couldn't help but jump to his feet: "Damn it, how far is it?"

While cursing this damn plan, he stretched out his hand to explore his heart.

There, a wisp of green flame was beating slightly.

……

Cui Xisi looked at Tianlan who fell in front of her. Miss Poet was always lucky, but this time she could not escape disaster - the Naga God broke her neck, leaving Tianlan lying on the ground like a bird with folded wings. No more life.

After a moment, a faint white light emerged from the opponent's body. Seeing this scene, Cui Xisi breathed a sigh of relief - no matter what, at least this battlefield was beneficial to them, and Narsuyu couldn't leave them alone.

But when she thought of Tianlan still winking at the Naga God until the last moment, she couldn't help but feel a little funny. Although this should obviously be a serious occasion, she couldn't be serious now.

She took a step back, covering her chest with one hand, and looked at the towering Dark Saint.

Narsuyu was also looking at this human girl.

After a moment, she said coldly: "You hand it over to me yourself, or do I take it out of your body myself?"

Cuisi said nothing. Of course she understood that any words she spoke were meaningless at this time.

Narsuyu snorted coldly: "You are stubborn and ineffective."

She stretched out her hand and squeezed it gently, as if she had grasped something from a distance, causing Cui Sisi to groan and curl up into a ball in pain - and the moment Narsuyu grasped the thing, her face couldn't help but smile slightly. A change.

She jerked her hand away.

Trixis shot a bloody arrow from her chest. The girl's vision was blurry as she saw the Naga god pull out the thing from her chest - a crystal fragment that shimmered with light. She squinted her eyes and felt that something was moving rapidly in her field of vision. It became dim, and there was only the dazzling light in the crystal——

It looks so dazzling.

"Sea-Lin-Shui-Crystal!"

And Narsuyu held the bloody crystal in her hand, her face changed wildly, and she almost read out the name word by word - if there is a power in this world that has the same origin as the Emerald Star, then Cang Zhihui , Hailin Crystal is undoubtedly one of them.

What's more, they actually come from the green fragments, and the two are indistinguishable from each other.

At this point, how could Narsuyu not understand that she had been tricked by Fang Pliance? If the other party handed over each piece of the Hailin Crown to different people, how could she confirm who had the true noble heart? In hand?

But she never expected that the other party would actually be willing to scatter the Hailin Crown and give it to everyone around him. It was the most precious treasure of Kaolin-Ithurion, one of the four holy objects in the mortal world, not to mention It is said that the secret of Cang Zhihui is hidden in it.

Narsuyu raised her head and looked at the bright starlight with a cold face - yes, there was not much time left for her, if the woman named Odais had really gone to the core area and dissipated there That last ether node, then all her plans will disappear.

And the third disaster is coming, and the Naga family has no more time for the next thirty years.

But luckily, she still has a chance.

"Hailin Crown," she sneered, "well, since you regard it as a gift to me, then I will let you see what the power of a real god should be like."

……

"The third one——"

Fang Yu was silently looking at the dimmed Hailin Crown in his hand. Sylvide, Mia, Siesta and Odais were all standing on one side. Looking at this scene, their eyes couldn't help but flicker. , naturally understand what happened.

Odaisi then spoke: "Ed, thank you..."

Fang Plover shook his head. The Seven Seas Troupe did not come here just to be appreciated, not to mention that the plan was far from successful, but it could only be said to be a start.

And next——

That's the beginning.

He looked at the Hailin Crown in his hand - it itself was composed of twelve crystals, but only half of it was left, and the other half was on Miya. Because there is no real entity in the sea of ​​ether, so the crown here is actually just It's just a projection of Cang Zhihui.

Before setting off, he gave the three crystals in the Hailin Crown to Alyssa, Jita, Parker, Trixis and Tianlan respectively. The purpose was to distract the Naga God. At present, every crystal was gone. Send it to Narsuyu.

Then, it’s time to close the net.

He looked up at Odyss.

"Tianlan, Parker and Cui Xisi have fulfilled their responsibilities. Next, it will be up to us to lure Narsuyu away," Fang Yu said quietly: "Miss Miya——"

He paused and looked at Sylvide: "And Sylvide, you come with me, and we will lure Narsuyu away together."

The wolf girl glanced at him and nodded slightly. The ship officer's eyes flashed slightly and she smiled at him with satisfaction.

Fang Yu then looked at the maid: "Shesta, it's up to you to protect Ms. Odais. I'll give you a task. You must never leave Ms. Odais' side."

Siesta was slightly startled and couldn't help but subconsciously look up at Fang Plover - the maid lady was always taciturn, but now she seemed a little hesitant - she looked at Odais again, who had told her about this land and her before. There was a connection between them, but it was difficult for her to feel that reality.

Everything about the past twenty years, her life experience, and even her possible parents, were still lingering in her heart until now, making her feel a little dazed. Of course she understood what she was supposed to accompany the other person to do.

She has long forgotten everything that happened twenty years ago, but will that history eventually be buried in the underground ruins along with this land?

But she had long been accustomed to obeying, so she only paused for a moment and nodded lightly.

"Ms. Odais may not be related to you, but in a sense, she can also be regarded as your last relative, Siesta," Fang Plover said, "I hope that in this last part of the plan , it’s up to you to accompany her.”

The maid was slightly startled and couldn't help looking up at him.

Fang He gave her an encouraging look. He certainly understood that the taciturn maid might not be her original character. He looked at Odysse who was standing beside him and said, "Ms. Odysse, Shesta is now in your hands."

Odais was slightly stunned. She originally planned to complete this last journey alone. The dragon soul bound to the Green Star was like her destiny. Everything in the past twenty years had long since disappeared, and the old friends who shared the same goals in the past were We, now only memories remain.

From the moment he became a dragon soul, his destiny seemed to be like a river with a fixed trajectory, which could only flow towards the tomorrow that had passed away.

She only hopes for her own destiny, and in the end she can still protect the people and things she cherishes.

But Odyss looked at Siesta, as if she saw the stormy day twenty years ago, everything still existed, and the little girl had not grown up yet - she thought of Adni, her daughter did not finally grow up. Unable to accompany myself through the last journey.

But at least it's her.

Odyss nodded slightly.

Fang Yu and Miya looked at each other, and finally looked at Sylvide. The ship officer lady was gently nodding to him.

Everything is on track——

Then, all that remains is the final moment when the lighthouse is lit.
