Mysterious as the wind, always with me.

"Just, why me?" Mark laughed.

Barbara next to her said, "Because Gard said that his guardianship covenant with us hasn't ended yet."

"Oh? Even if you tell him, you are no longer the gods of this world?"

"even so!"

Under the explanations of the goddesses, Mark understood: Gard is like the head of a security company, signing defense alliance contracts with many gods.In exchange, he can receive remuneration such as divine power from the other party of the contract.

Sad to say: Gard is clearly messing up his own brand now.

"We are all gods with a certain priesthood as the source of power. Not only that, but this is an indelible obsession branded in our souls. Even if we are no longer the gods of this world, this obsession will accompany us until Until the soul is annihilated." Litchel sighed.

"Then let him come."

A day later, Mark met Gard in the drawing room of the Caribbean.

"..." Mark was rarely so speechless.

Gard is also the existence of a god with a mortal body.It's just that this appearance still made Mark a little dazed.

Stepping into the main entrance of the hall, what is displayed in front of Mark is a pair of two-meter-high silver armor in the standard sense.

Apart from the rectangular spiked silver tower shield with Gard's height, and the complicated curved patterns on the armor, the most striking thing about Gard is the full-face helmet in the shape of a single horn.Through the tiny gaps in the eye sockets and jawline, Mark could see that it was hollow inside.There is only a group of silver divine power condensed inside.

"Please don't mind my appearance, Mr. Mark Destiny, I have abandoned the habit of being a human being for almost 1000 years. Even if it is the so-called [Holy Body], I only appear in the form of a humanoid armor." Gard said solemnly.

"Your Excellency Gard, I should be the one to say sorry."

"No need to apologize, this is my choice." The armored giant bowed slightly.

"You said earlier that you hope to continue to fulfill the defense covenant against the four goddesses of art. May I ask why?"

The two groups of silver fireworks in Gad's full-face helmet flickered for a moment, which was actually very anthropomorphic, giving Mark a feeling that his owner was remembering the past.

He talked about the past in a low and hoarse voice:
"In the last millennium, when I was still a human being, I was the captain of the Royal Guards of a lost kingdom. My country was destroyed before the battle of God. I swore to protect my Majesty, Queen, and me for life. The two most beloved princesses were all killed in that incident of destroying the country. I couldn't protect anything, so I became a near-revenant existence."

"I know it may be difficult for you to understand my emotions - I was sad and disappointed because I couldn't protect me. After 100 years, I ushered in the war of gods. I was bound in the ruins of the palace, and suddenly I was trapped in the treasure house of the palace. attracted by a ray of light."

"That's a slab of divine power hidden in the secret mezzanine of the treasure house."

"The following story must be known to all the goddesses."

This is the war of gods, an era of chaos but heroes.

Whether it is righteous or evil, reasonable or absurd, all kinds of powerful beings from different planes and different worlds are madly advocating their own ideas to the wandering human beings, and instilling the 'truth' that may be absurd.

I don't know how many mortals went crazy for it, and I don't know how many mortals paid a terrible price for the lies of careerists.

In such a big environment, it is undoubtedly a precious quality to be able to maintain one's heart.

Mark savored Gard's words carefully, paying attention to the changes in the system, and finally got only peace.

Without any guidance or future vision, the right to choose was simply and thoroughly placed in front of Mark.

"Oh? You said that you are willing to continue to perform the duties of guardian until the end of this battle of gods, even if they plan to leave this world?"

"Yes. Your Excellency does not need to pay any price. This is the fate of me and all my followers."

"Do you need me to take you with you?"

The silver helmet shook: "Maybe I won't be able to survive Judgment Day. But the existence I [guard] was born on this land. I won't leave."

"Even if you are lucky enough to survive this divine battle, you lost the target you wanted to protect?"

"Yes! Maybe at that time, I will worry about how to find new guards. But let's talk about it at that time."

Asked here, Mark has no doubts.

Free prostitution thugs, don't do it for nothing!

"Thank you for your frankness. In the next period of time, I hope we can go through the last journey safely." Mark stretched out his hand and held it together with the cold metal hand.

Garde lowered his kingdom of God very simply.

When his shape is 6 shields put together, like a box, or a rectangular coffin, the kingdom of God breaks through the lower level of the spirit world by itself, and then passes through the portal between the spirit world and the plane of reality, and arrives at the port of San Marino, The mortals in the entire port were alarmed.

Different from the kingdom of the gods of art, they need to use a lot of space to give their angels and servants a space to display their artistic talents.

Gard's Kingdom of God is just a giant cave for hiding soldiers.

In addition to the necessary training facilities, his Kingdom of God is just like a big barracks, which makes his number of 'angels' the largest, a full 2077.

When these angels wearing heavy armor and holding large shields came out, their painting style was completely different from the angels of the goddess of art.

The angels in their family belong to the typical 'heads can be broken and hairstyles can't be messed up', they must be beautiful themselves, and take a part-time job to fight.

The Guardian God's 'angels' are all heavily armored men, and even their titles are [Shield Guard], [Guardian Knight] and the like.Angel wings are also available, but can you imagine these macho men with an average height of two meters put on a heavy armor like a large metal can, and then use palm-sized wings to maintain flight?
These guys are not 'focusing their talents on defense because they are afraid of pain', but 'focusing all their talents on defense for [protection]'.

As for whether it hurts or not, I didn't think about it at all.

Counting the believers who came from all over the world in response to Garde's call, theoretically Mark would soon have 1 more Extraordinary soldiers under his command.

In this troubled world, it is not a small force.

Immediately after Gard, Mark was a little surprised, but not so surprised, received a request for refuge.

The muscular female knight named Natasha knelt in front of Mark: "The Goddess of Ice and Snow has already lost in the battle with the God of Ice Bear. By the order of the saint, I beg your mercy to take the Lord of Ice and Snow out of this world. As a ship Fei, my lord is willing to present a high-level ice and snow artifact!"
