Chapter 570 The Promised King...Latan!

"Chong-"

The Golden Needle Greatsword and the Sword of Night and Fire intersected again, sparks flying.

Leida wanted to continue forcing her, but Kara had quickly distanced herself from her, then swung the sword in her hand, raising a large flame that pressed towards Leida!

The flames coming towards her stopped Leida from chasing further. She wanted to avoid the flames, but through the gap, she saw the tin staff in Kara's hand light up again.

"boom--!!"

The next moment, a broom star whizzed out!

However, because Leida noticed Kara's movements in advance, she was not hit by the unexpected attack, but she still had to roll on the ground to successfully avoid it.

After avoiding the broom star, she didn't even have time to get up. She immediately showed the holy mark on her left hand and threw out a series of halos.

Sure enough, at the next moment, the second broom star fired by Kara also flew over and collided with the overlapping halo!
"boom--"

The sound of magic exploding was heard, and the flashing light made it difficult for the two to see each other's situation clearly, so they did not continue to chase, but instead slightly distanced themselves to catch their breath.

"You're not in a good condition."

When the magic light faded, the two did not take action immediately. Instead, Leida spoke again.

"The charm of Master Mikaela has been lifted, but the effect of his power on you cannot be erased so easily. You should be very tired mentally."

Kara did not hide it: "It is true. Even now, I have a splitting headache, as if my brain has been split in half."

"...But you still remember what I told you about my master, right? He is extremely powerful and seems to be omnipotent."

Leida was still a little confused as to why she suddenly said this, when she saw Kara take out a small golden bottle with a narrow neck from her bag.

"Is this... the thing he just gave you?"

Kara smiled and said, "Yes, Master just told me secretly that this thing is called...the blessing of the goddess."

As she spoke, she opened the lid and drank it all in one gulp.

At this moment, Kara's aura suddenly became several times stronger, even though she didn't release any magic power, it still frightened Leida!

Leida: “This is…!?”

Kara stretched her body slightly and said with a smile: "Although I haven't fully recovered yet, at least my headache is gone. Come on, I'll take care of it as soon as possible."

Leida frowned, but she would not avoid the fight. She raised the sword in her hand and swung it, summoning a circle of golden needle flying swords around Kara!
"--Then you come and try it." As she said this, she swung the sword, and the golden needles immediately attacked Kara!

……

On the other side, further ahead of the purification hall where the two men fought, on the last flight of stairs leading to the Gate of God.

Li You took out his pocket watch and checked the time: "It should be night time now... but it's still bright here. Or rather, the position of the sun has not changed since we entered the spiral tower."

No one responded. Behind him, Edge and V were standing by the handrail of the stairs, looking into the distance. When they got here, the height was already amazing, and everyone was already above the clouds.

Looking around, there were only the Shadow Trees and the spires of Shadow City in the distance, and in another direction, a mountain top that looked like a collection of spikes that could protrude through the clouds just like where everyone was.

Even Yuzu was interested in this scene. He didn't often fly into the clouds and was not familiar with the world above the sea of ​​clouds.

The three companions were looking around at the scenery. Only the veteran An Pach answered Li You's question seriously: "Maybe it's the power radiating from the Gate of God, or maybe it's the characteristics of this tower itself. It seems that this place has a sense of being a space of its own."

"The Gate of God... I didn't expect there would be such a thing. Wasn't Queen Marika chosen by the Supreme Will to become a god? Why does she still need the Horned Man's Gate of God?" Li You was still puzzled.

Ampah couldn't answer this question either, and Melina, who might have known the answer, had already separated from Li You and returned to Kara, so no one could give him an answer.

"...Forget it, now is not the time to study history." Li You did not hesitate, "Hurry up, let's go find the king of Michaela - just follow the previous personnel allocation."

The companions also came to their senses and stopped being obsessed with the scenery. Instead, they began to prepare for battle.

Considering that they have to face the king of Mikaela, and even the possibility of facing Mikaela who has become a god, Li You does not intend to let Aggie fight in this battle. Her current fighting power is really limited, and it is really dangerous to participate in such a battle.

Even with a conservative estimate, Li You felt that "Golden" Godwin's strength would not be weaker than Starbreaker or Valkyrie.

Aggie had no objection to this. She was very sure of her own strength level, so she stayed in the previous elevator room and waited for Kara to arrive.

As for Yuzu and V, their strength is obviously enough to fight alongside Li You.

And the last participant was, of course, Ampah.

"…If Master Mikaela resurrected his 'Promised King', then I think this means that Master Monger's body may have fallen into their hands and become a vessel for that person's soul."

Anpahe's analysis was accurate, but he was also very open-minded: "I'm afraid this was Ms. Kara's plan. As expected of her, she kept it from us all." "I originally promised that I would help you win no matter what, and now I have even more reasons to fight. So please allow me to fight alongside you guys."

Li You originally thought that with Ampah's intelligence, it was a wrong career choice to participate in such a battle. He might be more suitable to be a military strategist, or at least an outstanding counselor, rather than taking the risk of fighting a powerful enemy with unpredictable strength.

However, taking back Monger's body is Ampah's ultimate goal after all, and Li You certainly cannot stop him.

"...Then let us fight together."

An Pah stroked his beard and chuckled: "It is an honor for me."

So, the group walked up the last flight of stairs and arrived at the platform where the Gate of God was located.

The scene here was slightly beyond Li You's expectations.

Originally, in his imagination, since this was a place where those who were qualified could be promoted to gods, it should have a very strong holy atmosphere, and the Gate of God should be a building similar to the Gate of Heaven, leading to the boundless void.

But what we see now is not exactly the same.

This wide square is covered with uneven fine sand, and only the originally flat and fine ground can be vaguely seen.

In those piles of sand, countless dried corpses were hastily buried with parts of their bodies exposed, as if they were struggling with all their might, but ultimately could not escape.

The Gate of God was at the end of the square. Unlike what Li You imagined, the real Gate of God was two stone monuments that stood slightly tilted back from each other, rising from the ground. On the stone monuments, there were countless mummies densely packed and overlapping!
There was a gap between the two stone tablets, which made the whole look like a half-open door. The golden sunlight shone from behind the Gate of God, passed through the gap of the Gate of God and sprinkled on the square, and also spread the light all over the tower, brewing a sense of holiness.

"This is... God's Gate?"

Li You couldn't help but be stunned.

"I shouldn't have expected anything from the old thief."

Compared with the flaws of the Gate of God itself, what Li You is more concerned about at this moment is the figure standing in front of the gate.

Although he was backlit, Li You could still see his appearance clearly. He had a sturdy body, golden lion armor, a lion-tooth helmet with red mane, and a red cape that was slightly undulating behind him.

The man stood with his arms folded, not saying a word. Two huge black swords that looked more like machetes were inserted into the ground on both sides of his body, also standing still.

"That's Michaela's king, Godwin... How is that possible?!"

Li You was annoyed at the time: "This TM is Latarn, right? Huh!?"

"Shouldn't it be Godwin? 'Gold' Godwin!? Why is it Latan!?!"

Ampah was puzzled: "Why do you think that Lord Michaela's king is Lord Godwin? Lord Godwin's soul has long been annihilated by his destined death and can never be resurrected."

"Besides, it is precisely because of the agreement between Lady Michaela and General Latan that we are rushing to prepare for this and trying to find a way to call back his soul."

Li You then remembered something: "...So, from what you mentioned before, the truth about Freya's past that she wanted to find was...?"

An Pah nodded, "It is about the agreement between General Ratan and Lady Michaela."

Li You: "…………"

Well, everything is connected... What the hell!?
So why is it Latan?! There is no foreshadowing in the main game, right?
On the contrary, there is text between Michaela and Godwin that proves they have a good relationship?

Li You certainly knew that according to the original setting, Godwin's soul was dead, just like Lani killed her body with her destined death and became the first dead body in the flesh, Godwin was the first dead body in the soul.

Logically speaking, Godwin's soul could not be resurrected, so Li You also thought that it might not be Godwin that he would have to face in the end... but he never expected that it would be Latan!

Wasn't Marenia still fighting Latan during the Shattering War? Now you're saying that Michaela and Latan have a "promise"?
What did you guys agree on?!
Li You couldn't hold back the urge to complain, so he was about to start bombarding his companions. However, at this moment, a deep voice came from nowhere, echoing above the square.

"My sharp blade, and the heroes of the festival. The story of your struggle will be sung forever."

"Now the promise is fulfilled, and the powerful soul will soon return - he will be my king."

Li You would never forget this voice, it belonged to Michaela. Although his voice was ethereal and seemed to fall from the sky, the meaning was clearly audible.

As he finished speaking, Latan, who stood like an iron tower in front of the Gate of God, also responded.

The entire square sank instantly, then trembled slowly. The fine sand covering the ground, the randomly buried mummies, and the fragments on the base of the Gate of God all floated up as if they were weightless.

Latan crossed his hands and slowly raised them. The pair of giant swords on both sides of his body suddenly rose up with the change of gravity, and fell accurately into his open hands and were grasped.

As the two giant swords rubbed against each other, lavender sparks burst out. Latan then separated the two swords. The terrifying aura on his body was no longer suppressed, and it rose into the sky like a volcanic eruption!

This momentum alone was enough to frighten Li You and his group.

But Latan didn't give them any time to react. Purple magical light lit up all over his body. He flew up and then spun at high speed. In the blink of an eye, he crossed the entire square and smashed down towards Li You who was in the lead!
The surging gravity-attribute magic power exploded, not only did Ratan's two swords fall towards Li You, but under the influence of his gravity magic, a large number of protruding spikes also grew on the ground and attacked the others behind Li You!
"Boom——!!"
