Chapter 199 The Gods Cast Their Fear

The wind gently blows across the cold and silent earth, making the stagnant world move again, and the heat from the outside world breaks the balance of the cold and silent earth.

"Was I dead before?" The God of Knights suddenly moved, his body quickly warmed up, and his consciousness began to become active again.

If gods had no concept of death, he would have been killed by the Ice and Snow Goddess's ultimate move and there would have been no possibility of him surviving.

That move was to wipe out any trace of warmth and make everything stagnate, which naturally included conscious gods.

At that moment his consciousness indeed stopped functioning, and it only started to function again when the external heat poured in.

Is this a death in some sense?

not sure.

But it is certain that Akhtar is dead and there is no possibility of survival, as Akhtar has no concept of death.

"...No need to send the gods to help." The Giant Hammer God beside him also regained consciousness and looked in the direction of the Ice and Snow Goddess, "Does that move count as touching time?"

The Knight God shook his head: "There is still an essential difference."

"It's already amazing that they're close. I'm reminded of the witch who controls time." The Hammer God's expression was subtle. "If she's still alive, she might be even more troublesome than the Witch of Death."

"It's not surprising that she didn't die." The Knight God answered seriously, "There are so many witches in this world pretending to be dead, so it's not surprising that the witch pretended to be dead, right?"

The God of Hammer was silent for a moment, shook the hammer in his hand, and decided not to continue discussing the meaningless topic.

"Let's go, let's go pick up the Ice and Snow Goddess." After he finished speaking, he pushed the ground with both feet, and the frozen hill under his feet suddenly collapsed. His body shot out like a cannonball and landed in the center of the battlefield.

"There's no need to be so anxious." The God of Knights floated in the air, glanced at the collapsed hill, and flew towards the center of the battlefield at a steady pace.

"Ice and Snow Goddess, are you okay?" The God of the Giant Hammer landed on the ground and looked at the Ice and Snow Goddess reaching out and stroking Akhtar's cheek. "Do you need us to take you back to the sky?"

“No need.” The Ice and Snow Goddess responded coldly. She took a step or two back with shaky feet. Before she was about to fall to the ground, an ice throne suddenly rose from the ground, just enough to support her body.

Now she was in a state of lack of strength, and after casting the Warmthless World, she had to fall into a state of weakness.

“Don’t stay too long, or the Witch of Death is likely to come.” The God of Knights also rushed over and explained to the two of them. He then drew the knight’s sword from his waist, intending to strike Akhtar with the sword and completely put an end to this dangerous demon.

however.

"Descend?" The frozen Akhtar suddenly moved his eyes and met the gaze of the Knight God. He also raised his hand and grabbed the cheek of the Hammer God who was nearby. "I didn't lose. Is there any need for me to descend?"

He smiled evilly.

"I really was underestimated." As he finished speaking, the fingers that were holding the Giant Hammer God's cheek burst into flames of ash, directly burning the Giant Hammer God into ashes.

The atmosphere became desperate at this moment.

The weak Ice and Snow Goddess supported herself on the throne with one hand and tried to get up. The God of Knights beside her gritted her teeth and protected the weak Ice and Snow Goddess behind him.

"It's really dangerous." Ximu did not take action immediately. He explained like a professional villain, buying time to recover.

He pushed his hair back from his forehead.

"If I hadn't concentrated all my strength into the flame of ash at that moment and burned my existence completely, I would have really... died."

"Then I'll let you die again!" The Knight God responded and attacked Akhtar, and said to the Ice and Snow Goddess behind him, "Ice and Snow Goddess, hurry up..."

Before he could finish his words, the pillar of light pierced through his chest, killing both gods at the same time along with the Ice and Snow Goddess behind him.

Ximu lowered his sword of light and looked at the God of Knights lying in a pool of blood, and the Ice and Snow Goddess leaning on the frozen throne with a pierced chest.

As for whether the Ice and Snow Goddess is strong, there is no doubt that she is strong. When facing this move in the first round, he was madly questioning the game officials, asking why there was such an instant-kill move, where there was no way to survive once hit.

Later, he looked up strategy guides online and discovered that in addition to using ten kinds of shadow magic to trick the Ice and Snow Goddess into using her ultimate move, he could also use the Ember Flame to ignite his own existence and enter a state of complete combustion, and rely on the characteristics of the Ember Flame to face the world without temperature head-on.

Wait until the Ice and Snow Goddess releases her ultimate move, and then you can take her away with one move after she falls into a weakened state.

……

...

Magic Kingdom.

Big library.

"The snowstorm is over." Hecate put down her teacup and accurately stated her prediction. As a witch in charge of fate, she clearly realized that the endless snowstorm covering the world had ended.

"What disaster will be next?" The Goddess of Lies asked with a smile, but her eyes were cast on the blindfolded Sister of Dusk beside her. This time she came to the Witch of Fate alone to confirm the upcoming Ragnarok crisis.

"It is Ragnarok," Hecate replied. "If you must specify the exact date of its arrival, it will probably be in two years."

The atmosphere became stagnant.

The Goddess of Lies could not keep her calm and cunning smile. As the goddess of lies, she could naturally see that the Witch of Fate was not lying.

"This is really bad news."

"By the way, the time of Ragnarok is not fixed." Hecate added, "Ragnarok is accelerating and will definitely come earlier than expected."

She was able to observe the specific circumstances of Ragnarok through the ability of the blindfolded nun, so she could confirm that Ragnarok was approaching at an accelerating pace.

And she currently has no clear way to prevent Ragnarok from coming.

"The three goddesses of fate also foresaw the coming of Ragnarok." The goddess of lies sighed, "but they foresaw it within ten years."

Hecate picked up the teacup and took a sip, without explaining why there was a gap between her predictions and those of the three goddesses of fate.

The Goddess of Lies didn't care. She moved the chair under her buttocks, approached the Witch of Fate very familiarly, and said:
"Is there a way to delay the coming of Ragnarok?" "Yes," Hecate answered immediately, "Kill the fire giant Surtur, and Ragnarok will need to re-select the Lord of Ashes."

"Will not unsealing the Fire Giant Surtur directly trigger Ragnarok?" The Goddess of Lies frowned. She had witnessed the entire process of the Fire Giant Surtur being sealed with her own eyes, and knew clearly how difficult the Fire Giant Surtur was. Not only did he possess the concept of immortality among gods, he also gained the power supplement of Ragnarok. As the deadline for Ragnarok draws closer, his power will continue to expand and increase.

Before the Fire Giant Surtur was sealed, his power was no less than that of an omnipotent strongman. Now, Ragnarok is only two years away, and no one is sure to what extent the power of the Fire Giant Surtur can expand.

If the seal is broken, Ragnarok will come completely, and this era will come to an end.

"If it means weakening the power of the Fire Giant Surtur, I can do it." The blindfolded nun suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of the two people present. "I have the power to select the candidate Ash Lord. As long as the candidate Ash Lord is selected, the power correction for the Fire Giant Surtur will be lost."

"The power to select the candidate Lord of Ashes?" The Goddess of Lies showed a surprised expression. The fact that a candidate for the Lord of Ashes could be selected was completely beyond her expectations and something she had never thought of.

The blindfolded nun raised her hand and touched her eyes: "I am the Twilight Sister who observes the world on behalf of the gods."

Originally, she didn't intend to reveal this information, but after hearing that Akhtar planned to kill the fire giant Surtur, she decided not to hide this information, otherwise Akhtar would most likely be killed by the fire giant Surtur.

That's why she chose to reveal this secret information.

"Can anyone be chosen as a candidate for the Lord of Ashes?" asked the Goddess of Lies. If anyone could be chosen, then simply nominating the Witch of Death as the candidate for the Lord of Ashes would probably kill the fire giant Surtur in an instant, thus delaying the arrival of Ragnarok.

“It must be someone infected by the Ashfire.” The blindfolded nun shook her head slightly, her calm voice carrying a hint of...sadness.

She now felt a destiny that could not be defied. Even though she knew that Akhtar did not want to burn the world, she had to choose the worst option under the push of fate, unless she wanted to watch Akhtar being killed by the fire giant Surtur.

“Then only Akhtar can do it?” The Goddess of Lies frowned. Akhtar is the only one in this world who is infected by the fire of Surtur and has the ability to kill gods.

The blindfolded nun bowed her head slightly.

This is the gravity of fate from Ragnarok. Even if we know it, we have to act according to the gravity of fate from Ragnarok.

"Is there any other way?" The Goddess of Lies asked. She didn't want Akhtar to take the risk of fighting the fire giant Surtur. She also wanted to find an opportunity to trick Akhtar into becoming his partner. It would be a pity if he was killed by the fire giant Surtur.

Moreover, she and Akhtar had worked together to create the Source of Terror, and now Akhtar became the alternative Lord of Ashes, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Find a way to kill the omniscient god." Hecate replied, "As long as we cover the old world order with the new world order, we can solve the problem of Ragnarok from the root."

"Akhtar is unwilling to burn the Tree of Omniscience, right?" The Goddess of Lies showed a conflicted expression. As an ally of the Witch of Death, she naturally knew the prerequisite for defeating the God of Omniscience, which was to burn the Tree of Omniscience that was everywhere and forcibly weaken the strength of the God of Omniscience, thus gaining the possibility of defeating the God of Omniscience.

However, burning the Tree of Omniscience would be equivalent to killing Eden, and Akhtar would definitely not want to do that given his personality.

The atmosphere fell silent.

Hecate took a sip of tea elegantly and said a solution, "You don't have to use my apprentice. Just find someone with potential to be infected with Surtur's fire and let him become a demon to burn the trees."

"You can just be a devil casually?" The goddess of lies rolled her eyes. Even though it seems that there are devils and witches everywhere now, they are all accumulated from past history. It is basically impossible to temporarily cultivate a devil within two years... no, maybe even less than two years.

Unless a genius as brilliant as Akhtar emerges in this era, which is basically impossible.

"Wait, it doesn't seem impossible." The Goddess of Lies suddenly clapped her hands, "I remember that the Source of Fear was infected by the Ash Flame, right?"

She asked the Witch of Fate.

"What if we let the source of fear burn the tree?"

"Is the source of fear infected with the real Ash Flame?" Hecate asked, and then nodded, "But it's worth a try."

"We must keep this secret from Akhtar." The Goddess of Lies quickly added, "If he knew that we were planning to kill the Omniscient Saint, he would be very angry."

She began to think of a plan.

"If the source of fear accidentally escaped the seal and unexpectedly arrived near the Tree of All-Knowledge, and used the Ash Flame to ignite the Tree of All-Knowledge..."

The blindfolded nun suddenly asked, "Miss Eden, are you willing?"

"They should be willing, right?" The Goddess of Lies guessed, "Compared to letting Akhtar kill him, it would be more appropriate to let the source of fear do it."

"..." Hecate shook her head slightly, fiddling with the air with her fingers, as if she was fortune-telling. She was considering the possibility of this plan.

During this period, it became increasingly difficult for her to predict her fate. The possibilities were constantly leading to Ragnarok, and many of her predictions were disrupted by Ragnarok.

This interference can only be eliminated if she can capture the three goddesses of fate.

……

...

at the same time.

on the other side.

The portal in the sky suddenly opened.

The burning meteorites fell towards the earth, and the scorching heat they emitted directly blew away the coldness on the snowfield.

But upon closer inspection, it was not a meteor, but a being riding an eight-legged horse and holding a spear. His body was burning with flames that could burn everything, and his eyes revealed madness that could burn everything, as if he was the Lord of Ashes in the endless and distant future.

His appearance is extremely similar to Akhtar, with no difference except that he is missing an eye.

"Boom!" The source of fear fell, and the overflowing terrifying high temperature burned the snowfield into purgatory. He was seen riding an eight-legged horse and emerged from the flames.

Instead of coming down to kill Akhtar directly, the gods chose to send the source of fear down and make it hostile to Akhtar.

No matter who wins or loses, it is a win for the gods.

"Hahahahaha~ That's really good." Ximu laughed wildly, looking at the source of fear approaching on an eight-legged horse, "Does this count as me hitting myself?"
