Old days in the box

Chapter 41 The Courageous and the Cowardly

Roaring thunder came from the sky above the capital.

In front of the ruins of the War Sanctuary, the fierce fighting continued.

Civilian casualties were the heaviest. Seven out of ten corpses lying on the ground were unarmed ordinary people. They rushed to the battlefield with just a burst of blood and soon became heroic victims.

As for the kingdom's soldiers, although they have the bonus of violent will, their numbers are not advantageous.

Once the deep-diving elves joined the battlefield, they were quickly repelled from the door and retreated back to the altar of the sanctuary.

"Their numbers can no longer be sustained. Destroy their altars, fill up their furnaces, and completely destroy this false god!"

Freya's sword blade emitted incredible light, becoming a clarion call for the surrounding deep-diving elves to advance.

Her long hair and pupils emitted pure white light, and the beam condensed in her hand struck the ground, penetrating all the Kingdom soldiers it touched, leaving complex scorch marks on the ground.

The winds of light are the most difficult force to control among the eight winds of magic. Even highly accomplished mages find it difficult to accurately operate and gather them. However, as long as they can be used properly, they are also the most stable force among the eight winds. .

Freya's wind of light talent has been deeply integrated with the local magic, which is enough for her to easily guide this proud energy to carve a way among the soldiers.

The war altar was not far in front of them.

As long as this last scourge is destroyed and the big furnace pool is filled up, the belief called "God of War" can be completely eradicated from this continent.

At this time, Zhou Xiao was also watching this fantasy epic fight on the screen, as if he was watching a magical movie about the melee between elves and humans, and it was also broadcast live in high-definition.

As the soldiers of the kingdom were retreating steadily, they had retreated all the way from the door of the sanctuary to the altar, and it seemed that they would soon have no retreat.

But this time, behind them was the last parasitic place of that ancient being.

It would not let this group of people approach its altar so easily.

Soon, the high-speed stirring high-temperature vortex in the furnace began to sink, and the huge shadow at the bottom of the furnace began to rise.

The entire altar trembled, and cracks appeared on the edge of the pool under the weight.

"Is he finally showing up?" Zhou Xiao poured all the instant coffee into his stomach and turned his camera to focus on the stove pool.

He knew that no matter how desperate the kingdom's soldiers were, they would never be a match for the deep-diving villains.

So he didn't put too much thought into dealing with the soldiers, but kept waiting.

Wait until this ancient existence can finally hold back, wait for it to show up in person and take action.

At this time, a huge roar came from the stereo.

bang——

On the screen, the huge furnace pool exploded and released a large amount of molten iron, which spread around the furnace.

The surface of the stove's pool bulged in vain, and a huge shadow was rising from the bottom of the pool and breaking through the surface of the pool.

In the pool full of molten iron, a body ten times larger than the war creation was revealed!
It was an extremely bloated bronze colossus!

Although only the upper body was exposed, the hugeness of this giant statue still exceeded everyone's imagination, almost reaching a height of hundreds of meters, and it directly exploded the entire mouth of the furnace pool.

Three twisted arms stretched out on the giant statue, and six pairs of eyes were carved, all open and glaring at the ant-like crowd below.

Because it has been parasitic on the bottom of the pool for many years, it has absorbed an excessive amount of human sacrifices, causing the entire bronze body to swell irregularly, and the entire body seems to burst at any time.

It's like a living god statue that has been distorted and polluted!

Everyone was shocked by this huge false god. They never imagined that such a monster was hidden in the kingdom's sanctuary.

In the atrium, although humans and gods have been separated, and the giants, gods, elves, dwarves, and mortals in the world have settled in their own places, there are still a large number of ancient beings left in the atrium, lurking in the dark and influencing mortals.These monsters that have survived since ancient times, without exception, want to gain trust from humans, and continue to accumulate strength in the hope that one day they can be promoted to gods.

This so-called "God of War" is one of them.

"In the old days, there was such a monster lurking in the kingdom!"

The deep-diving elves were shocked, and the civilians who followed them in were even more shocked.

Compared with the giant monster in front of him, the fire-breathing giant summoned by the great sacrifice ceremony was just a toy.

"Don't panic. In the final analysis, he is just a monster. Don't forget that the great Son of the Old One is with us!"

Freya concentrated her mind, regained control of the restless white light on her body, and spoke loudly to encourage the deep-diving elves.

In fact, she was also unsure about facing such a huge false god monster, but she knew that she must not let this monster sink their morale at this time.

Since the great Son of the Old One has already arrived in this capital, He must have arranged everything secretly.

As his people, they only need to pursue their god's faith to the end, and there is no need to worry about anything else.

At this time in front of the screen, Zhou Xiao was finally able to see the true face of this ancient existence in Mount Lu.

"You look... so unique." Seeing its appearance, Zhou Xiao couldn't help but complain.

This guy looks very much like the idols of foreign heretical sects, with three hands, six pairs of eyes, and distorted facial features.

And the size is indeed exaggerated. Even if Zhou Xiao has adjusted the viewing angle to a high level, this monster almost fills the entire window.

But windows naturally have advantages.

No matter how mysterious anything is, as long as the entity appears in Zhou Xiao's window, everything will become invisible.

Zhou Xiao clicked on the false god monster, and its information appeared in front of him.

"The blasphemous image has survived for more than 400 years."

"The youngest among many ancient monsters, it slowly condensed its true form by relying on the statues of gods abandoned and destroyed by mortals. Over hundreds of years, it incarnated into the appearance of many different gods, bewitching mortals to provoke wars and chaos, and providing it with the source of faith. Nutrients, now have considerable strength.”

"Click to see more information."

Zhou Xiao clicked on more information and got a more detailed full-body picture.

Just as the message said, the lower body of this blasphemous statue is also an extremely twisted seven-legged limb, which is completely pieced together. Its head is a six-sided cube, each side is carved with The appearance of different gods represents its sin of pretending to be a god.

This blasphemous image was born by blaspheming gods. Over the centuries, it has stolen the identities of different gods, provoked wars among mortals, nourished itself as a parasite in the war, and continued to grow.

Whenever a kingdom is completely drained of all its value, it will abandon the kingdom without hesitation and turn to find the next target. The Kingdom of Donos is just one of its numerous achievements.

"Sure enough, you are brave to death and hungry to death. You really dare to pretend to be a god."

After seeing this biography, Zhou Xiao had to take a high look at it.

This blasphemous statue pretends to be different gods to confuse humans, which is of course much more efficient than slowly cultivating followers on its own.

But such a method can only be used to catch fish, and those who quickly consume one place will have to look for the next place.

And the most dangerous thing is that stealing the identities of the gods is likely to attract the wrath of the gods, and they may be wiped out by then.

This statue of blasphemy is truly a highly skilled person who dares to use this method of stepping on a tightrope. Even though it is the youngest among the ancient monsters, its strength has grown in just a few hundred years.
