It's over, everything is over.
Looking at Griffith's body transformed back into human form and the bloody head in his hand, Gus felt that the mysterious power that had just been on him had completely faded away, and a large amount of strengthening magic had also disappeared without a trace.
Now he has changed from an omnipotent God of War to a mortal, and even the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand seems extremely heavy.
Oh, no, not all power is gone.
There is still a little soul energy left in the electorate, which was not consumed by the all-out blow just now.
But these don't matter anymore.
Because for Gus, from the moment he cut off Griffith's head, all his previous anger, hatred, and pain were relieved in an instant, just like those emotions that had troubled him and almost drove him crazy.
It's as if they no longer exist. Even if you die immediately, you won't have any regrets.
Could this be the emptiness after the legendary revenge?
Or is it the effect of that unspeakable mysterious force?
Gus didn't know what was going on with his current state. He was slumped next to the huge corpse, looking around blankly, not wanting to speak or move.
Just when he was assuming that he wanted to stay here for the rest of his life, Zuo Si's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"You did not disappoint me and successfully defeated the God of the Abyss. As a reward, I can now help you realize a wish."
"Wish? Can any wish come true?"
Gus' originally dilated pupils began to focus again, and he turned his head to stare at the demon who helped him complete his revenge.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "Yes. Even if it is to resurrect someone who has died, or to become the emperor who rules this continent and holds the highest power."
Hearing this, an excited expression finally appeared on Gus' dull face. He stood up suddenly and asked, "Then can you return that poor child to me? It was me who failed to protect him in the first place.
Now I hope to have the opportunity to make up for this debt."
"sure.
But are you sure you want to waste this precious opportunity just to get that kid back?
Don't you desire things like power, wealth, strength and eternal life?
You know, I rarely really allow others to make wishes and turn them into reality."
Zuo Si stared into the other person's eyes, wanting to confirm whether this child of destiny would be eroded by desire after losing the favor of fate.
But Gus, as expected of Gus, answered without even the slightest hesitation: "No, no need to.
I just want my own child back.
Because I owe him this, and I must spend my whole life making up for it.
As for power, wealth, strength and eternal life, they have never been what I pursue.
I just want a home and a place to belong."
"In that case, I will fulfill your wish."
As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si raised his hand and began to release the energy of life. In just a few seconds, the shadow of a twisted baby appeared out of thin air.
Immediately after this, the baby began to become normal under the influence of huge vitality, and turned from a shadow into a real entity.
Finally, it suddenly let out a loud cry, and moved its hands and feet restlessly, looking extremely healthy.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Casca seemed to sense something, and quickly rushed over from a distance, held the little baby in her arms, and kissed her repeatedly while shedding tears.
Gus threw away the dragon-slaying sword and the blood-stained head, stretched out his trembling hand and gently touched the baby's forehead, feeling the warmth emanating from this little guy, and his eyes once again ignited hope for the future life.
There is no doubt that his reaction fully proves how much influence family and descendants have on a person.
If he were alone and without worries, Gus would most likely be devoured by the vengeful beast bred in his heart.
Without this child, he would most likely become confused, sink, lose his life goals and desire for life after completing his revenge, and live in confusion every day until one day he dies alone.
But at this moment, after seeing his child come back from the dead, he almost instantly assumed the role of father and began to plan how to give this little guy a happy and fulfilling childhood.
Because Gus didn't feel much family affection and the warmth of home when he was young, out of compensatory psychology he longed for his children to have all this.
For this reason, he can endure hard work day and night, and can endure the exploitation and oppression of the ruling class.
As a saying goes, the family is the smallest unit that makes up society. As long as this unit remains stable and ensures that the common people have food to eat, then theoretically there will be no large-scale turmoil in society.
But once this smallest unit begins to fragment, and society begins to use fragmented individuals as the smallest unit, many fatal problems will appear one after another.
All kinds of terrible violent crimes will also increase.
After all, people are often in the most dangerous state when they have nothing to worry about. A few quarrels and quarrels may even develop into criminal cases that cause serious injury or even death.
Seeing the warm scene of the Gus family, Hansel finally couldn't help but lower his voice and asked: "Father, how did you resurrect a newborn baby?"
He shouldn't have developed sanity and self-awareness yet, right?
Such a living body will only produce a small piece of soul fragment at most, and it will dissipate very quickly.
Theoretically, it is impossible to resurrect through normal means."
"resurrection?
Haha, who told you that it was resurrection?
I just created a new baby using their genes.
After all, Gus's wish was to have that child back, and I granted it based on my understanding.
Look, isn’t his current reaction very satisfying?”
A playful smile appeared on Zuo Si's face.
Obviously, the child of Gus and Casca had already been used as a disposable consumable, sacrificed when disintegrating the God of the Abyss from the inside, and there was no possibility of resurrection.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Everything that happened just now was just him deliberately creating an illusion to make the two of them think that the resurrected one was the dead demon baby.
After all, this genetic and blood connection is real.
"So...you misinterpreted his wishes?"
Hansel was immediately surprised.
"Misinterpretation?
No, it’s a misinterpretation if it’s discovered, but it’s a perfect realization of his wish if it’s not discovered.
Remember, lies and deception do not exist in this world in the true sense.
It just depends on whether your little trick is discovered or not.
If not, then this is a hard fact."
After that, Zuo Si ignored Hansel's reaction and walked straight towards the Hands of God who were already standing motionless like fools.
The reason why this situation occurs is because the God of the Abyss has disappeared, and the most important spiritual essence that constitutes their life form has also disappeared, so now all of them can basically be called idiots with incomplete souls.
Although there is still some consciousness and memory left, it is already infinitely close to a vegetative state.
In fact, not only them, but the apostles were also the same.
The more you accept the power of the abyss and the closer you are to the apostle of evil thoughts, the more serious your numbness and sluggishness will be.
On the contrary, apostles like Zod and Gurren Belludo, who were less affected by the power of the abyss, rarely killed civilians at will, and had relatively well-preserved self-awareness, managed to survive.
After they felt that the God of the Abyss had disappeared, they immediately chose to turn around and run away. Now they don't know where they are hiding.
But this is no longer important.
Because without the support of the power of the abyss, they can no longer transform into the form of apostles, but linger as cripples with incomplete souls and spirits.
Zuo Si briefly confirmed the status of the Hand of God, and then absorbed it to establish a connection and transform it into an extension of his own power.
In other words, he recruited these God's Hands as his minions.
In just a few seconds, all four God Hands except Griffith surrendered at the feet of their new master, without any resistance or struggle.
At this point, Zuo Si finally completed all the set goals, leaving an avatar in place, and then activated the Planeswalker Spark and disappeared in place.
The next second...
He appeared in the huge cyberpunk city on the ninth level of Baator Hell.
