in the name of the queen.

If I can’t cure Sophia, can’t I cure you two little things?
The Judge perked up and picked up the scythe.

He even saw hope of survival.

Defeat Roland and Sif with perfect posture, and then hold them hostage to force Sophia to accept a peace agreement.

These three plague gods are outsiders after all, and they will eventually leave.

As long as he survives, he can continue to bully others in the prison. Bah, he is serving the free people.

Live!
The desire to survive is indeed the strongest desire. Driven by the strong desire to survive, the Judge fought the most exciting battle of his life.

Even with Sophia's critical eyes, she was somewhat impressed by his performance.

Sophia looked at the aggressive judge and Roland and Sif who were at a disadvantage, and coldly issued a death sentence.

"Kill him."

In the Sea of ​​Annihilation, Roland and Sif's souls connected, and they could no longer be distinguished from each other.

This kind of complete connection of souls is rare, and it greatly improves Roland's soul toughness and mental strength.

Now Roland would not be at all nervous even when facing the descending goddess, and could face it calmly.

Of course, whether or not they can win is another matter.

A mere judge, only standing at the peak of the Holy Domain, naturally could not shake Roland.

Roland's power has not yet reached its peak, but Sif, who has recovered all the soul fragments, has already recovered to the heyday of the Third Era.

Now she possesses the advantages of both the elves and humans, the two top races. She has both the elves' affinity for nature and magic and humans' creativity. Her combat power is even higher than Roland's.

Roland and Sif were not at a disadvantage even when facing the Judge alone, so they naturally had the upper hand now that it was two against one.

After receiving Sophia's execution order, Roland gave up the idea of ​​using the Judge as a sandbag to practice his skills and attacked with all his strength.

The holy light shines, illuminating the entire hell into a bright place.

When the fleeing people of Hell saw the holy light coming from behind, they subconsciously thought that it was the messenger sent by the Goddess of Light. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and they ran away without a trace.

Everyone was running wildly.

Their goal was not to outrun the Lightbringer, but to outrun their slower compatriots in Hell.

It would be better to kill others than yourself, a very simple idea of ​​escape.

The deserted Youyu City now looks like a ghost town.

Roland didn't have to worry about accidentally hurting too many innocent people, so he didn't hold back and let the holy light engulf the entire battlefield.

The holy light shone on the Judge, causing his skin to crackle.

After all, the Judge had a negative attribute, and it was very uncomfortable for him to be illuminated by the holy light. The sacred energy collided violently with the negative attributes in his body. The piercing pain made him scream, and the sickle in his hand began to tremble.

What was supposed to be an impeccable blow turned into a farcical swing.

Once he lost the initiative, his only advantage was gone.

The moment Roland made his move, Sif, who was spiritually connected with Roland, also made his move.

The shadow of a golden ginkgo tree fell from the sky and landed behind her.

This is her natal ginkgo tree, which she watered with her blood. Although its main body cannot travel through space and descend, some of its power is bound to Sif herself and can be summoned at any time.

The stronger the controller of the ancient tree is, the more power the summoned ancient tree phantom will retain.

Considering the difference in power between Sif and the Ginkgo Tree, the summoned phantom is at least 70% to 80% functional.

The golden ginkgo tree opened its crown, and countless tree species fell.

The gloomy hell was illuminated by the holy light in the sky, the ancient tree opened the umbrella of life, and then scattered flowers all over the ground.

If an uninformed person came here, they might think it was some kind of paradise on earth.

Seeing this scene, the judge's face changed.

"You, you are that elf?!"

He thought of the poor elf he had seen countless years ago. Her feet were cut off and there was no time to reattach them. She could only hold her feet and use energy to concentrate her feet, which were not very useful, and run barefoot.

At that time, he was not yet an adjudicator, but just a younger brother summoned by the previous previous previous adjudicator to help with the pursuit and interception.

So many years have passed, but the elf's sad face and desperate expression are still vivid in my mind.

He hadn't recognized Sif before, mainly because her temperament was completely different, and he didn't expect that the unlucky guy who rushed into the Sea of ​​Annihilation hundreds of millions of years ago could come out alive.

Faced with this miracle that broke his cognition, his heart trembled.

He had a vague ominous premonition that today might be his last moment.

He is unwilling, why? !

Among all the judges of the Netherworld, he is the one who cares the most about everyone, has the best relationships with people, and is the one who is least likely to offend anyone.

When Roland came secretly, he pretended not to see her; when Sophia came openly, he also pretended not to see her.

He was afraid of coming into contact with these passing monsters.

He tried his best to eliminate hatred and did everything he could to ensure safety, but something still happened.

The judge was angry, unwilling and desperate.

Even if Roland and Sif were defeated, what would it matter? Sophia was like a mountain with no visible top, standing there.

Although his mentality exploded, the Judge was, after all, a super master who had seen too many ups and downs. He remained calm and adjusted quickly in the face of danger, slashing his sickle towards Sif again.

This time his target was not Roland and Sif, but the summoned ancient trees and sea of ​​flowers.

People with long legs can run, but the sea of ​​flowers and ancient trees can’t run.

The sickle swept across the sky, splitting the space, and a deep gully appeared in the air. Even Roland and Sif were unwilling to take the blow head-on.

The shadow of the ancient tree swayed, and the judge smiled.

No matter how strong a fortress is, if a hole is blasted in it, the flaws will be infinitely enlarged.

Although the ginkgo tree itself is strong, what appears here is just an illusion after all. It has attack capability but lacks defense.

His guess was correct. The moment the sickle hit the ginkgo tree, the shadow of the ginkgo tree just shook slightly and then disappeared.

dissipate?!
The judge's eyes widened and cold sweat broke out. He knew he had been fooled.

This is a scam.

There is no such thing as a phantom of a ginkgo tree. It is clearly an illusion and does not exist.

As he expected, it was indeed a scam.

Sif also knew that the phantom of the ginkgo tree was less than one-tenth as strong as the real tree. If she summoned it forcefully, she would have to focus all her efforts on protecting the tree, which would put her in a passive position.

As long as you don't summon a real ginkgo tree, it won't be cut down.

Solve the problem at its source.

Sif is no longer the innocent girl she used to be. Sometimes she is even more cunning than Roland now.

Although she has a beautiful face that looks harmless, it is normal for anyone to be deceived if they really think she is a fool.

The Judge's fully charged attack was deceived by a simple illusion, and his momentum was lost by more than half, and his physical strength and energy were severely depleted.

Although he was still fighting hard, the outcome was already determined.

Sophia, floating in the air, stared at the battle which had become somewhat boring, thoughtfully.

It seemed that she didn't need to take out the teaching video she had recorded for Roland.

Although Roland's absolute strength was far inferior to his, his cooperation with Sif was perfect. The fighting methods of these two guys were very flexible, and the Judge was no match for them at all.

If it weren't for the home game, the Arbiter would have been defeated long ago.

Seeing that there was no change in the battle situation, Sophia's eyes drifted to the sky.

The Land of Death is divided into three layers. The Sea of ​​Annihilation is the real Land of Death, where there is nothing and no powerful guards. This is the real death.

The Underworld is a place of exile. Although the people here are alive, they are no different from being dead. It is a death without hope.

Compared to them, the underworld is the place of death that people generally know.

Every dying person will be led to the underworld.

Most living beings only have one life. Once their souls enter the underworld, they will be used as the cornerstone for building the underworld and will not be able to enter reincarnation.

Only souls strong enough or lucky enough can cross the Styx and enter the real underworld.

There are various places of judgment and atonement in the underworld.

The lucky souls chosen to enter reincarnation will atone for their sins here before returning to the human world.

Reincarnation in the underworld is definitely not a pleasant experience.

In order to make the reincarnated creatures forget this purgatory-like experience, they will be forced to drink the water of the River of Forgetfulness, so that they will forget the miserable world they experienced in the underworld.

Sophia didn't understand why she knew this, but she just knew it.

They stayed in the underworld for quite a long time, so long that the real ruler of the underworld, Queen Judica, realized that something was wrong and even calmly arranged an interception.

But this doesn't bother her.

Problems that can be solved by fighting cannot really bother Sophia.

She was even looking forward to this battle.

The Queen of the Underworld is different from those false gods. She is a god born and bred in the underworld and is in charge of all affairs of the underworld.

The God of Death is the nominal ruler of the underworld, but he is already a dominant god and cannot return to his hometown. Since he became the ruler, his wife, Judea, the Queen of the Underworld, has been the one in charge of the underworld.

You can imagine how difficult it is to defeat a real god at home.

If I'm lucky, the one blocking me from above won't be the Queen of the Underworld.

Sophia thought silently.

She was silent for a moment, then clenched her hands tightly.

How could she have such a cowardly thought? Did she think she was inferior to the Queen of the Underworld?
Sophia frowned slightly. She saw from the corner of her eye that Roland was constantly depleting the Judge's defenses. She snorted impatiently:

"Don't waste time!"

Sophia's words were orders. Roland and Sif sped up instantly, and with swords and spears combined, the situation on the battle changed instantly.

After Roland and Sif got angry, the Judge had no power to resist anymore and was soon stabbed by the sword repeatedly.

He retreated continuously, roaring like a wounded beast. After both of his arms were cut off, he knew the final moment was approaching, and he let out a shrill, wild laugh and roared loudly:
"You have no idea what's waiting for you in the underworld. I'm waiting for you in the River Styx!"

"I still have a chance to reincarnate, but your end is complete death!"

"LOL!"

The Judge's hysteria ended with Sif shooting him in the head.

"It's noisy."

Sif said calmly, removing the Judge's head with a spear and throwing it aside.

There is no need to finish off the enemy as the Judge's equipment is scattered all over the ground.

After looking at Sophia and getting a positive answer, Roland and Sif happily looted the spoils, sweeping away all the wealth that the Arbiter had accumulated over the years.

Looking at the two little locusts, Sophia's lips curled up slightly, and she smiled and teased:
"If you want to rob, it's not enough to just rob this little bit, let's do something bigger."

Roland and Sif looked up at the same time. The Judge had fallen, so there were bigger fish?
Sophia pointed to the Hell City below and said with a smile, "Since they have already abandoned the city, according to convention, this city will be our spoils of war."

"You know what to do, right?"

Sophia glanced at the rings worn by Roland and Sif and said softly, "There is a huge space hidden inside the violet and ice blue rings. Go ahead."

Her look made Sif feel a little uneasy, so she quickly excused herself and went to search for things.

For some reason, Sophia's gaze became increasingly strange, which frightened her.

The search lasted for seven days.

During this period, some residents of the Hell returned, but after seeing the head of the Judge hanging at the city gate, they tactfully left the same way they came.

They were wailing that their wealth had been looted, but there was nothing they could do.

Although being robbed is painful, no one is so blind as to jump out to defend their property.

You can earn money back if you lose it, but if you lose your life, it’s gone for real.

Besides, Youyu City is so big, you don’t necessarily have to plunder my city, right?

Most people are silently waiting with a fluke mentality.

When the people of Hell were about to collapse, the three people of disaster finally left.

After making sure they had left, the people of Hell returned to the city with sad faces and counted their losses.

"My money is all gone!"

“My treasured collection of rare and precious treasures, ahhhh!”

"No, my wine, that's the best red wine!"

"Ah, my library, there is not a single book left, not a single one for me!"

Amid the cries and roars, the strong men of Hell finally understood what kind of enemy they were facing.

Take everything you can, leaving nothing behind.

What a bunch of bandits!
While the people of Hell were cursing Roland and the others angrily, the trio of bandits had already crossed Hell and arrived at the entrance to the underworld.

They were not in a hurry to break through, but instead spent a few days taking stock of their gains and reviewing the previous series of battles.

Sophia's teaching video came in handy after all.

Roland was fascinated by what he was learning.

In his opinion, although Sophia was only simulating the power of light and could not control real light, she still demonstrated artistic fighting skills.

He was generous with his compliments, making Sophia feel a little flattered.

"Stop flattering me and learn quickly. We will have to fight later."

Roland was immersed in his studies. Sif looked at the image in the crystal ball with envy. She bit her lip and looked at Sophia timidly, stammering and begging:

"Sister Sophia, can you simulate the power of nature?"

Sophia almost fell from the air. She looked at Sif in shock and asked with a stammer:
"What did you call me just now?"

"Of course it's my sister."

Sif muttered quietly, "You can't call me auntie."

Sophia's fist hardened.

Sif has a special magic that can always accurately find the way to make her red and warm.

She took a deep breath and said coldly, "I just accept it. Forget it. I'm older than you and stronger than you. It's not too much for you to call me sister."

"Although you have bad intentions, I cannot call you sister in vain. I have fought with the first generation of Elf King and have some understanding of the power of nature. Watch out."

Sophia opened her arms and the sky suddenly turned a deep green.

The past is like the wind, floating in my mind.

The power of nature is actually not complicated, but many elves simply believe that the power of nature must be linked to the forest.

How much of the existence in this world has nothing to do with nature?

The power of nature is not as simple as you think. (End of this chapter)
