Original God's Dark Priest

Chapter 722: Burning Flames

Agnes died and turned into flaming feathers all over the sky. The flaming feathers floated in the air and turned into blazing orange-red snow, which fluttered down slowly and steadily like petals.

Looking up at this magnificent scene, Saphir's heart was filled with emotions: "It turns out...the petals in the sky can be so beautiful, and so sad..."

Like Agnes, she had once faced death without hesitation, scattering into a cloud of cherry blossoms in the air, dyeing half of the blue sky of the divine realm red, but she had never seen it from below.

"The speed at which the petals fall... is five centimeters per second. They are too light and too heavy, falling aimlessly, unable to keep up with the speed at which life passes away." Saphir stretched out her hand and touched a feather of fire. A faint flame burst out at her fingertips, causing her a slight tingling sensation.

At the same time, Agnes' voice came from a distant place and echoed in her heart.

"I saw her. She was different from anyone I had ever met before. She was determined and confident. I couldn't bewitch her."

Saphir lowered his eyes. This was what Agnes was thinking before she died.

She took a long breath and began to install the positioning device. During the installation process, feathers of fire kept falling on her exposed skin, bringing back words that Agnes had not yet said.

"I don't remember how long we have been wandering. If the union of Tartan and Odin is destined to bring only pain, then why didn't we choose destruction at the very beginning?"

"Another memory wipe. I can't remember how many times this has happened. Yesterday, Kratt asked me again, why can't we get out of the Dusk Sea?"

"We can't get out. We will never get out."

"I never thought that death would be so familiar to us, but the cruel reality tells me that everything is possible. Tartan has fallen into a desperate situation. It doesn't matter who you are, please grant us relief."

"She looks a bit optimistic, not like the old monster I imagined. This makes me feel a little guilty. We have no hatred against each other. Do we really want her to bring us relief? Will this become a hurdle that the child can't overcome in the future?"

Saphir pursed his lips and said to himself: "No, because I have done similar things more than once."

Fire feathers fell one after another, and various memory fragments emerged. Saphir heard Agnes's past voice from them: "I can understand that you and the humans here are hindering us, but why are you chasing us so relentlessly?"

"We just want to go back to where we were before. Is this worth fighting with us at the risk of your lives?"

"They are the ones that destroy peace? Are you sure what you know is correct?"

"A long time ago, we came from what you call the Demon World to survive. Extracting energy and fighting you were all for survival."

"A tiger that eats a rabbit will be sentenced to death? What's the difference between you and us who fight for survival?"

"You are blinded by a single leaf... You think you see through everything, but how much do you know about us and Lord Antun? In this case, we have no choice but to continue the war."

"You are very strong... much stronger than I thought. You won, but your victory does not mean it is correct..."

"... "

Similar broken words rolled in Saphir's mind, allowing her to see through the long river of time the entire process of a race's extinction, as well as the helplessness and sadness in the hearts of those who experienced it.

Agnes tried her best to save the situation, but she failed. Until her death, until her second death, she did not understand why she failed.

After completing the last step of the installation, Saphir slowly stood up and brushed off the non-existent dust on his body: "We are all doing this for survival, but what you think is natural is unforgivable in the eyes of humans...

You are not tigers and humans are not rabbits. Ignoring their emotions will eventually lead to destruction, which is inevitable.

War does bring pain, but the purpose of war is to prevent war from happening again. The way humans solve problems has always been simple: either solve the problem or solve the person who caused the problem.

If Tartan and Antun are unwilling to admit their mistakes, they will be the ones to be dealt with, the victims, that's it."

After the last sentence was said, the flames in the sky completely dissipated. A second before the flames went out, a barely perceptible sigh came from the void: "Is that so... It's really... regrettable..."

All four locators were installed. After confirming them, Gulab looked at Sandone.

Sandoni nodded slightly and directly activated the drill's launch button. Four heavy and huge mechanical drills were fired straight towards the direction of the locator.

After doing all this, Sandoni clapped his hands and seemed to be in a good mood: "Let me see what effect this little gadget that I tinkered with on a whim has."

Her words were transmitted undisguisedly through the communicator to the ears of the four people still on the battlefield.

Rosalyn was the first to curse out loud: "Puppet, are you fucking crazy? You launched it before we even had a chance to leave?"

It was Shuanghua's voice that answered her: "Is this the first time you knew this guy was a lunatic?"

Alechino held his forehead helplessly: "Instead of cursing on the communicator, you might as well leave quickly. This heavy drill will suck you in and turn you into minced meat.

We can accept casualties in this battle, but if it is due to such a ridiculous reason, I might consider asking the Queen to vacate your eighth seat and find someone more capable to take it.

Otherwise, we executives will look cheap.”

"No... Servant, what do you mean? Why is it the eighth seat? Isn't that Aurora guy here too?" Rosalin felt very unhappy. Why did she mention her and not Sapphire? Is the second seat so noble?

Two seconds later, Saphir's slightly puzzled voice came from the communicator: "What are you talking about? I have already climbed up the Black Volcano. There is an energy shield here that cannot be cracked. Send someone to solve the energy center quickly."

"..." Rosaline was completely speechless. It turned out that Saphir rushed to the next battlefield after finishing the work at hand and did not stay there at all.

Hu Zhaigong chuckled and consoled him: "Okay, let's go back quickly. It's really dangerous to stay any longer."

The two of them left quickly. Chen Xi had already turned on the communicator and knew the development of the situation. She also quickly left the place and rushed back.

After making sure that everyone was away from the area that was about to be hit, Gulab nodded slightly and began to look at Antun, who knew nothing about this.

After a while, Antun's limbs were hit hard at the same time. Sparks mixed with blood mist and magma flew everywhere. The drill bit penetrated deep into its joints, directly depriving it of the ability to move.

Antun howled miserably because of the severe pain in his body. The sound was so loud that it spread far away. The sound waves even moved the sea surface, creating huge waves as high as tens of meters.

"This big guy is really scary." Fushe couldn't help but tremble in his heart as he looked at the overwhelming waves. If there was such a thing among the monsters that invaded Liyue, he couldn't imagine what kind of hard battle he would face.

When everything finally calmed down, Gulab squinted his eyes and carefully observed Antun's condition, then nodded vigorously: "Yeah! Very smooth, this guy has lost his ability to move."

Ying also spoke up at this time: "The monsters on the deck have retreated. Do we still need to stay here?"

"No need, just leave one person behind. Because they have lost their ability to move, those things have been recalled to guard the main body." Gulab replied.

After a while, Ying, who was covered in stains, returned to the gathering place carrying her chalk sword.

"Cough cough... This guy has such a loud voice... I... vomit..." Safir's voice suddenly came from the communicator, and it sounded like he was vomiting.

Alechino asked with concern: "Are you okay? Who can withstand such noise at such a close distance?"

Saphir said weakly: "Just now... I seemed to see the Emperor waving at me..."

"Ahem... Lord Guizhong, the Emperor... isn't dead yet." Fushe looked embarrassed. Although it was a good thing that his Lord would see the Emperor during his recital, why was this statement so strange?

Gulab pressed down the corners of his mouth. He must not laugh out loud at this moment, or he would definitely be punished. "Why don't you come back first? It won't be too late to go back after the energy center is destroyed."

"I... forget it, I'll just rest here for a while. You guys, go ahead and do your work, I'll be ready soon." After saying this, Safir stopped talking and closed his eyes to rest.

Gulab and others looked at each other in bewilderment, and after a while, they came to their senses.

Pal spoke first: "Next we need to break the energy shield. Gulab, please take a look at how many people we need to send out."

"Okay, Lord Pal." With Pal's words, Gulab quickly got into the state.

Soon, he got the exact information and started to make arrangements: "The energy center, um... it seems to be okay to call it a hatchery. Our goal this time is simple. Destroying the four energy crystals will remove the waterproof cover of the black volcano."

"Oh, I see. Is there another enemy guarding that energy crystal?" Ying immediately interrupted.

Gulab smiled and nodded: "Miss Ying is very smart, that's true."

Alechino sighed: "After all, a battle is inevitable..."

"I'm actually looking forward to it. This time I get a chance to see your full strength." Sandoni smiled maliciously.

Alechino rolled her eyes and said nothing more. Among the people who came together this time, the only ones who had not joined the battle were her, Sandone, Pal and Xier.

Therefore, the list of players going into battle this time is actually very clear, it is the four of them who will go into battle.

Gulab seemed a little worried and kept reminding: "The monsters in the energy center are a little weird. You must listen to my command, otherwise you might really die."

"Got it. Just tell us the route." Alechino stretched his body. He felt a little tired after sitting on the boat for a long time. It was time to move around.

Gulab nodded, thought carefully, and then said: "There are five opponents this time, but we will only go with four people. This is because the last layer of the protective shield is related to an old opponent, the Devouring Demon Ergal.

It will appear at the end of all your routes. I suggest that you do not challenge it alone. If one of you completes the battle first, wait until everyone else has finished before dealing with Ergal. This is safer."

Xier listened carefully, with a serious expression on her little face.

She has never had a clear grasp of her own strength, and now Gulab has grouped her together with three other freaks, which makes her feel a little stressed.

"After you land, you will probably first encounter an attack from two Taltans. After you deal with them together, you will go your separate ways. I am not sure who will face whom, and after all, I cannot see the subsequent intelligence clearly, so for now, we can only take it one step at a time.

Keep in touch, I will share new intelligence with you at any time." Gulab said, and the four of them set off.

It was still a team of four, but this time because Antun had lost his ability to move, the Noah moved much closer, so they were closer to the landing site, which also saved them a lot of energy.

After a while, the four-member team finally landed. As soon as they landed, the first thing that caught everyone's eyes was two tall Tartans.

"Is this the person that Gulab said was trying to stop us? He is really tall." Sandoni looked at the two men in front of him with interest.

The two men were wearing black and white armor respectively. The one wearing black armor was holding a huge axe in his hand, looking very oppressive. The other one was wearing white armor, and his weapon was a sword glowing blue.

The moment they met the four-man team, Gulab had already obtained the intelligence and immediately gave orders through the communicator: "Don't hesitate, just activate the big black guy, and ignore the white one, that guy is useless."

Alechino raised an eyebrow. It was the first time she heard such a blatant comment.

Sandoni accepted it well: "Not all Tartans are good, so it's normal to have one or two useless guys, isn't it?"

Pal smiled and said, "You three won't take action? How about... I take the lead?"

"Thank you, Lord Pal." Xier still respected Pal very much. After all, she was the mother of the Grass God.

Pal smiled and nodded, then took a step forward and stretched out her hand. Green vines shot out from her palm, tied up the dark giant axe Locke, and then pulled him into the encirclement of the four of them.

The vines were very tough. Locke, who was tied up with the giant axe, struggled hard but failed to break free. He could only watch as Pal raised his hand again and summoned the dark rose.

The moment the rose appeared, a strange fragrance spread throughout the space, causing the enemies who smelled it to lose their minds and stand there in a daze.

As soon as Pal made a move, he controlled the two enemies in an instant. Alecino naturally would not miss such a good opportunity. Just when everyone else thought that she would pick up her sickle and chop them up, she did something that no one expected.

Alechino reached out and snatched the weapon from Clo, the giant axe. He weighed it, tried the feel, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

“…” Sandoni didn’t know what to say.

The next second, Alecino reached out and touched the axe handle, and an orange-red flame began to burn, just like the way she fought in the outside world.

But whether it was Sandone or Xier, or everyone watching this scene on the boat, they all knew that this was definitely not the power that Alechino usually used, because elemental power was absolutely forbidden here.

So this flame is definitely not an ordinary flame.

Alechino successfully ignited the battle axe in his hand, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes: "Understand the true meaning of fire, and all evildoers should be burned to death in flames."
