The roar and explosion twisted the ball of light centered on the altar into a mess, with light and black energy intertwined, rising and falling, just like a working heart.
After a few breaths, the ball of light expanded violently, split into countless petals and exploded outwards, but there was no strange sound. Only the huge impact of airflow and dust indicated what had happened before.
After recovering from the dizziness caused by the impact, Geer sat up against the wall. After checking that there were no serious injuries such as fractures on his body, he turned his attention to the direction of the altar again.
At this time, the altar was filled with dust and smoke, and it was impossible to see anything clearly for a while.
The strange thing is that there seem to be two pictures in Geer's eyes. One is the picture of the previous palace environment, and the other is the picture of the palace after a long period of baptism. One is brand new and magnificent, the other is dilapidated and desolate. The two pictures cannot be separated.
In Geer's eyes, the cycle passes endlessly.
Bata, bah...
A stone kept knocking on the floor and rolled out of the dust mist with a crisp sound. Yugel's eyes jumped to the other side of the altar, spun around on the ground, and then fell steadily to the ground.
Not moving anymore.
It is the gem embedded in the chest of Dark Lord Zerobedian.
The moment the gem stopped beating, the dust and mist on the altar rolled. A black steel boot broke through the smoke and dust and stepped on the steps at the edge of the altar.
It's the dark lord.
The next moment, a tall black figure came out of the smoke and stood at the edge of the altar. His eyes turned to the gems on the ground. He paused, then turned his head, glanced at Geer, and stopped.
At this time, the black aura covering the dark lord's face had basically dissipated, revealing his true face.
It was the face of a typical middle-aged man. The first thing Geer felt when he saw his face was majesty. He was a tall man with a light golden beard. His beard was trimmed very neatly, and his golden hair was
The temples are connected together, there are also two slender mustaches on the lips, and a short beard on the chin, which does not give people a messy feeling, but makes people feel slender and neat, which complements his majestic temperament.
At this time, his eyes were a little dazed, as if he was suddenly awakened after sleeping for a long time. But the moment he saw Geer, his eyes instantly became sharp, as if he had seen a falcon of prey.
Generally speaking, the black energy that has become very thin on his body is floating up and down rapidly, which seems to represent his psychological activities at this time, which are violent and irregular, and very unstable.
In Geer's eyes, the Dark Lord is like a torch that is burning fiercely but has come to an end. However, it has burned everything that can be burned and is at the end of its strength. At this time, even a complete sentence has become intermittent.
.
However, although the dark lord's words were incomplete, his hand movements were not slow at all. The long sword exuding dark evil energy was held in one hand, raised forward, and strode towards Geer's location.
Geer has also stood up, with his sword across his chest, ready to fight again...
Another round of fighting is about to break out...
"Stop!" Just when the two sides were about to enter the distance to start the battle, a scolding came out from the smoke. Although the sound was not loud, it was extremely clear. Moreover, these words without any power turned the dark lord into a machine in an instant.
The rusty machine stood motionless for a moment, and its movements also stopped.
As soon as the voice finished, a white shadow appeared in the hall. It was Galivian who had helped Geer before.
"Father, you are still not awake. Don't you understand after all these years?" The weak-looking Galivian looked directly at the dark lord with a determined look on her face, with a faint glimmer of light in her blue water-like eyes.
"...No...I'm not wrong...No, I'm right...Yes, I'm right..." The dark lord's face kept changing, sometimes repentant, sometimes angry, sometimes ashamed, sometimes fierce, and the surrounding black energy was also
Then it vibrated wildly, and at first the sound was a low murmur, but the tone became higher and higher, and finally turned into an angry roar.
"No, you are wrong! Have you forgotten your original intention? Do you still remember your wife, my mother? And have you forgotten the people in the entire castle?" Gallivian stepped from the side.
As he approached the dark lord, his tone became more intense.
Under Galivian's approach and words, the Dark Lord subconsciously wanted to retreat, but his feet only moved and did not listen to his command.
"You made a mistake, father." Gallivian came to the dark lord, grabbed the dark lord's sword-holding hand with both hands, and said softly: "I know this was not your intention, so I will forgive you, mother and everyone.
I will forgive you..."
"...wrong...forgive...turn back...is it too late?" The dark lord's sword hand dropped weakly, and he murmured in a low voice.
"No... this is fake... liars, they are all liars... they are all deceiving you..." A shrill voice suddenly appeared in the hall, unusually erratic, as if sweeping in from all directions.
"Shut up, devil! You have deceived my father for so many years and harmed so many people. Now you have failed and everything is over!" Galivian scolded angrily, then turned to the dark lord. "Father, let it go and follow me.
Let's go, leave here, mother is waiting for you, everyone is waiting for you..."
The dark lord shook violently, and the little remaining black energy was completely forced out of his body, revealing the original appearance of the armor's gorgeous and exquisite appearance.
"No...Zerobedian, you can't abandon me...I am your hatred, your resentment...isn't it your last desire to take back everything you have lost?"
The black energy that was forced out howled and cursed unwillingly, and gathered together like dark clouds before a rainstorm, with electric light shining faintly, exuding a terrifying evil aura, and permeating with cold and vicious hatred.
"That's your desire, not mine." The dark lord's sword flashed, and an arc-shaped afterimage flashed between him and the black energy, and the last connection with the black energy was cut off.
"Zerobedian, do you think this is the end? No, it will never be! Look at your castle, your territory, your people, and the people around you now! You can never look back.
,forever!"
As soon as the connection was severed, the black energy seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, instantly leaving the dark lord's body and sinking into the yellow gem that fell aside. "Your fault, your sin is that you can never
Evasive!"
"I have never wanted to escape from all this, and I will never deny my sins, but I will never let you control me again and become an evil lackey. Go away, you will never succeed!"
The dark lord replied lightly, his face full of unshakable perseverance. He turned to Galivian, and the lines of his face seemed to become extremely soft in an instant. He raised his left hand and stopped it above Galivian's head.
It hasn't fallen yet.
Upon seeing this, Gallivian grabbed the dark lord's left hand and placed it on her head. She smiled and shed tears: "Welcome back, father."
The dark lord stroked Galivian's hair and his voice was slightly choked: "Galivian, my pride... I'm back... I'm sorry..."
"...It's okay...Father, it's not too late. I know that none of this was what you wanted..." Gallivian leaned her body into the arms of the dark lord, her tears falling like pearls.
It fell and smashed into pieces on the ground, but there was no trace of sadness on its face, only infinite joy.
Geer stood aside and saw the turning picture in front of him. Although he didn't know the details of the situation, he also knew that the battle would not happen, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the earth-yellow gem lying quietly on the ground suddenly shot out and flew straight towards him.
"careful!"
The dark lord's eyes froze, and it was too late to take action. He could only sound a reminder, but before the reminder sounded, the gem had already arrived in front of Geer.
The light of the sword suddenly appeared, and Geer, who had never let down his guard, had already swung his sword.
But the gem was like a living creature, and it actually changed its direction while flying at high speed, making a small arc just past the obstruction of the sword light, and hit Geer's forehead.
The speed was so fast that it was too late to swing the sword again.
However, the moment the sword slashed into the air, Geer was already ready for the follow-up, and his left hand was already in front of him, ready to block the attack.
Gem seemed unable to change direction again and continued to rush forward, just in time to collide with Geer's left hand.
The moment the gem rushed into his palm, Geer subconsciously controlled his left hand to grasp it, but the result was nothing, as if what he grasped was just a ball of air without any substance!
"Hahaha... My plan will not fail... Regret it, Cerobedian... You destroyed me, and I will destroy you..." The voice of the black air mass sounded again, full of pride.
"Warning! Warning! Unknown negative energy has entered the body and is judged to be harmful. Do you want to expel it?" The mechanical warning sound also sounded in Geer's mind at the same time.
"Expulsion!"
In an instant, Geer felt that the cool breath all over his body was concentrated on his left hand, as if there was a fierce conflict with something invisible. The tingling sensation immediately spread to the lower parts of his left wrist, and there was a faint black air.
It began to emerge from the left hand.
"No! What's going on? This is impossible!" Under the counterbalance of the power in Geer's body, the evil black energy, which was already in a weak state, had no ability to resist, and was expelled in a few breaths. "I understand.
!It turns out that’s the case, it turns out you are too…”
A dazzling sword light flashed through the black air. This was the sword of the dark lord.
Suddenly there was a slight explosion sound, and the sound of the black air mass suddenly stopped. The black air mass exploded, dissipated into the air, and turned into nothing.
"Are you okay?" Gallivian asked cautiously, but she hid half sideways behind the dark lord. Apparently her previous encounter made her a little afraid of Geer.
"It's okay." Geer replied calmly. Although the battle should not happen again, he still had the necessary vigilance.
"Thank you for saving me and my daughter." The dark lord slowly walked up to Geer, holding the sword upside down, showing that he had no hostility.
Geer glanced at the two of them and said nothing.
The dark lord shook his head slightly and smiled: "What happened before was my fault. I apologize to you. Young man, you are very good. Galivian and I are leaving. I won't need this in the future. Send it to you."
Here it is, consider it my thank you gift." He picked up the sword in both hands and placed it in front of Geer.
After looking at each other for a while and feeling the sincerity of the dark lord, Geer smiled, raised his hands and took the two-handed sword.
"Then let's say goodbye." The Dark Lord said, "By the way, destroy the altar before leaving. This world doesn't need this kind of thing anymore."
"Okay." Geer nodded, then suddenly remembered something, "Wait a minute, I have a partner, where is he now?"
"If it's that stupid mercenary, he's in the room above. He's not as vicious as you..." Galivian poked her head out from behind the dark lord and glared at Geer hatefully.
I still felt a little grudge for that sword strike at the beginning. "But thank you anyway. If it weren't for your bravery, my father and I would not be free... Goodbye, noble hero."
"Goodbye." Geer responded with a smile.
Gallivian took the dark lord's arm and waved to Geer, and then their figures gradually faded and finally disappeared.
The moment the two people disappeared, the scene in the hall began to change instantly. As if countless years of time were accelerated in just a few seconds, the two scenes that were constantly switching in Geer's eyes gradually merged into one.
Numerous cracks and gravel appeared on the floor, the walls became mottled and uneven, covered with a thick layer of ash, and the stone pillars began to be damaged. Some even fell to the ground, leaving several large holes in the ground.
…
When the picture stopped changing, what Geer saw in front of him was a dilapidated hall.
Before Geer could carefully examine the environment of this place, an unprecedented amount of energy rushed into his body along the hand holding his sword...
