I, Hikigaya, the Fourth True Ancestor

"It should be successful, in a sense."

Nina sounded like it had nothing to do with her, but Hikigaya understood.

"If you say that, it's almost equivalent to failure."

When people begin to add certain qualifications to the description of events to express success, they have actually failed, and are just adding a fig leaf to their own failure.

This is a truth that Hikigaya Hachiman has understood clearly since he was in elementary school. You can often hear such idiotic words from even the most corrupt adults.

"There is no way, this is the fact. The gods created by alchemists pursuing perfection will naturally be too perfect."

"Is this the reason you gave yourself for failure?"

"Wait a minute, why has it been confirmed that it was me who did it?"

"Because people always find reasons for their own problems, you are already subconsciously whitewashing this mistake."

"Ahhhhhh, I'm so annoyed." It seemed like she was embarrassed to be exposed, but there was nothing Nina could do about it. She was an alchemist so good that it was recorded in history textbooks. At that time, there were such great alchemists. How could the alchemy process have nothing to do with her.

Of course, creating a sage itself is a vast project that cannot be completed by any one alchemist, and Nina is just a part of it.

If you hold on to death——you can be considered one of the masterminds.

"So what's wrong with that sage? You all said it was a perfect creature. Are there any problems or flaws in the manufacturing process?"

"It's not a problem or a flaw, it's just too much perfection."

Nina's pride as an alchemist forced her to use more euphemistic words to explain her failure: "A perfect individual does not need any living thing other than himself."

"That sounds like a very dangerous statement."

"Creatures love their companions because it is necessary for the survival of the race. It is not limited to the same race. Human beings protect nature because they understand that they will perish if they don't do so. Beautiful things like love and friendship are just instincts for the survival of the race. It’s just an illusion.”

"So researchers, as a creature, must pay attention to their own mental management. If they are not careful, they may make some remarks that endanger the safety of the earth."

"The fourth true ancestor!!!"

"I'm sorry to continue."

Although she is an old woman who is hundreds of years old, she is still quite cute. Hikigaya Hachiman smiled. He didn't know why he was still in the mood to make such a joke on the eve of such a final battle.

Probably because he encountered too many troublesome things during this period, even a cautious person like him has gradually become accustomed to the existence of crises.

"A sage does not need oxygen or food to live. Even if all living things on the earth become extinct and become a dead planet, that guy won't care. On the contrary, it will follow his heart. Because the only thing that guy is afraid of is other people. Living things evolve to become more perfect than themselves.”

"Is it so perverted?"

Hikigaya Hachiman understood that the logic of the so-called sage's operation was that he was an artificially created perfect life form and did not need to rely on the ecosystem to survive, nor did he have the desire or desire to reproduce.

The only thing I'm afraid of is to save a life that is more perfect than myself. Then the only thing that can be done with this kind of thinking is...

"So that guy's goal is to destroy the world."

"You are quite smart, the Fourth True Ancestor."

"Thank you for making this thing."

"We didn't expect it, and the aftermath has obviously been taken care of." Nina couldn't help complaining: "The immortal sage cannot be destroyed, so he is sealed. The alchemist draws out all the spiritual blood and takes away its Power, this happened 270 years ago."

"Is the blood drawn out the spiritual blood of the sage?"

"Yes, I am the guard responsible for preventing the resurrection of the sage. It happened that I was the most outstanding spiritual power among the alchemists at that time, so I was selected. Of course, I have to guard the eternal sage, and I must also be the eternal one. Only the existence of destruction will do.”

"So you transferred your consciousness into the spiritual blood heart? As a component to control the spiritual blood of the sage?"

"Yes, that's it."

"It's hard for you too."

In order to prevent the resurrection of the immortal sage, the lonely manager who was forever sealed in the spiritual blood of the sage──this is the true face of Nina Adilard.

Giving her the title of the legendary Great Alchemist was probably an act of atonement by the alchemists of the time.

Hikigaya Hachiman is not good at judging. It is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong in this kind of thing. There are many cases where the research results end up deviating from the researcher's original intention.

"So, the current sage is definitely resurrected, right?"

"Don't you understand when you look at it?"

The dust and smoke dissipated, and a yellow skull appeared in its place. The liquid metal sage's spiritual blood rushed up, and the golden skull was included in it, finally obtaining a complete human body.

It can only be barely called a humanoid. With a giant body of six or seven meters in height and a skin as smooth as metal, it doesn't look like a human being at all. Instead, it looks a bit like the strange species among the retreating dwarves.

"Is this what the perfect human being you created with all your efforts looks like?" Hikigaya Hachiman is not a Furikon, and he probably wouldn't like it either. He also looked forward to what the ultimate perfect human would look like. Such a handsome guy or beautiful girl, but ended up showing him this thing.

"Perfect creatures don't refer to something as superficial as their appearance."

"Appearance is not a superficial thing, please apologize like a human being!"

Hikigaya Hachiman argued with Nina all the time. The resurrected sage finally stood up and looked at the two-headed dragon flying in the sky.

Chapter 164 Fierce Battle

In just a moment, the sage's height reached more than ten meters.

Although its shape resembles that of a human, its body lacks eyes and ears, and the smooth curves throughout its body resemble a sketch model placed in an art classroom.

However, the outline formed by the golden ratio still makes people feel extremely beautiful.

How strange!The perfectly proportioned model is certainly in line with human aesthetics, but the terrifying and terrifying appearance of the giant sage really has nothing to do with beauty.

The sage's body is embedded with spheres that are very similar to Nina's core. They rotate like eyeballs and stare coldly at the earth.

And in the mouth that opened wide like a skeleton, there was a golden light tumbling like a flame.

"Ke... gurgle... gurgle gurgle... ignorant... imperfect existence, do you want to resist?"

As if reflecting the sage's words, like a monster in Ultraman, he began to gather frighteningly powerful charged particle beam bombardments from his mouth.

"The person who inherits the bloodline of Yanguang Yebo, Hikigaya Hachiman, is here to release your shackles──!"

"Come quickly, fifth beast, the gold of the lion!"

The giant thunder lion struck out in horror, breaking the charged particle beam emitted by the sage.

Randomly, the sage's model-like body began to twist, and the sharp blade stretched out from the body. The dragon and snake's mercury reacted randomly, and the dragon's tail suddenly blasted out, knocking away the impact of the sharp blade.

"With your level of strength, it seems a bit unsatisfactory to destroy the world."

Although the golden giant looked terrifying in power, its power did not exceed Hikigaya's expectations, and it even felt a bit - weak?

"What do you mean?" the golden giant said in a long and slender tone. He seemed to have some problems with his speech.

"I will sympathize with you. After all, you were created into a perfect existence without knowing the reason, but in the end, your blood was drained and sealed. It is no wonder that you grew up with misunderstandings. You have delayed 270 blind spots that should have been discovered earlier. I still don’t realize it.”

"We cannot understand the tone spoken by imperfect beings."

Hikigaya Hachiman raised his eyebrows. He was the immortal True Ancestor, and his magic power was still superior to that of the other party. How could he say such imperfect and harsh words at this time? Didn't this guy have any brains?

"The lion's gold, crush him for me!"

The roaring thunder lion let out a deafening roar, and the sky was filled with lightning flashes. Some people thought it was fellow Taoist who was going through the tribulation again. The momentum that was like the power of heaven was indeed somewhat similar to the tribulation.

"The Fourth True Ancestor, don't go too far!"

Nina shouted. Compared to the perfect creatures created by the alchemists, the final weapon created by the gods seemed to be incomprehensible.

"I will control the range. There should be no one around here."

Hikigaya controls the Lion's Gold seriously. As the most intuitively powerful and destructive beast among the familiars he controls, he actually doesn't let the Lion's Gold let go.

And the alchemy creature in front of him, called the Sage, although his magic power is still not as good as his own, he is indeed a being of the same level as himself.

And unlike opponents who have high attack and defense but low blood-sucking blades, this guy is definitely a good punching bag.

"Go ahead, Lion Paper Gold."

The divine thunder was brilliant, and the Nine Heavens sent punishments. Under Hikigaya's intentional control, they all bombarded the sages on the ground. The lightning might have knocked down the sages fiercely.

But that was just the beginning, not the end. The subsequent thunders followed one after another, violently bombarding the sage's body until the sage's body was shattered into pieces and shattered piece by piece.

"Is it just to this extent that he is the perfect creature you call him?" Hikigaya curled his lips and looked at Nina: "I feel that he is not as big a threat to me as Vatra."

"Your Highness the Fourth True Ancestor! You have gone too far. Didn't you feel that the underground plates here have shifted a little due to the impact just now? It almost caused an earthquake."

"It doesn't matter, this is Japan, earthquakes are normal."

"Is this what you call measured?"

"Isn't it all right?"

No matter what happens, it's fine. In short, it's not your fault. This is the willfulness and privilege of the true ancestor.

But just in this moment, when Hikigaya Hachiman and Nina were chatting, the liquid metal blocks that were smashed all over the ground and even scorched by lightning regrouped and resumed their giant form again.

"No? Can this guy be restored after being shattered into pieces?" Hikigaya Hachiman watched as the debris on the ground slowly condensed and returned to the perfect proportioned model before.

At this time, Hikigaya Hachiman was suddenly glad that this was a giant with a strange form. If a humanoid creature were to restore it with minced meat, it would make Hikigaya Hachiman sick and vomit out the blood he sucked from Chizuru when he secretly ate it in the wild last night.

"Isn't this normal?" Nina Xiaoxiong, who still occupies Hiratsuka Shizuka's body, spreads her hands: "Isn't it the same for you, Your Highness, the Fourth True Ancestor? Infinite regeneration and resurrection are the basic prerequisites for being a perfect creature, sage As a creature with an immortal body, isn’t this normal?”

"Moreover, our opponents are not just sages." Nina said, staring in a certain direction, as if there was something noteworthy there.

"Who else is there?"

As if responding to Hikigaya Genhachiman's doubts, Amazuka Mercury finally showed up, but most of the liquid metal surrounding him had returned to the sage's body. It seemed that only what Amazuka Mercury could still control was A very small part.

"Amazuka Mercury? You guys should understand that you have been deceived, right? Why are you still against us?"

Hikigaya Hachiman didn't understand. According to what they described, the purpose of Amazuka Mercury's resurrection of the sage was to return to a human body, but from the current situation, he still looked like a human and a ghost.

The sage did not fulfill his promise, or he simply did not have that ability. It is better to let the white steel of the water spirit come to the truth. Although there is a high probability that Amazuka Mercury will be traced back to the egg cell state, but you are all As an alchemist, it’s natural for you to take risks.

The mercury of Dragon Snake jumped down. This was the result of Hikigaya Hachiman pretending to chat. A mature True Ancestor should learn to secretly order the familiar beasts to attack. Anyway, it was the familiar beasts that did it and it had nothing to do with him.

Of course, the target of the ferocious mercury dragon could not be Amazuka Mercury. That would be overkill. The ferocious two-headed dragon bit off most of the sage's body in two bites.

Hikigaya Hachiman wanted to try whether the sage's spiritual blood could still be traced back since the liquid metal had been brought to another dimension.

Chapter 165 Hikigaya’s doubts

Just as Hikigaya Hachiman expected, no matter how terrifying the sage's retracement was, there was no way to retrace a part of Dragon Snake's quicksilver belly.

After all, the dragon-snake mercury's huge mouth is connected to the space of another dimension. There is no reason why things in the same dimension and dimension can't be summoned back.
