Chapter 54 Sequence Five 'Conqueror'

A fusion of snakes, humans, and all kinds of twisted and terrifying giant beasts, it spread its huge wings and let out a heart-rending cry to the sky. It was resurrected, but it didn't have enough flesh and blood, and it desperately wanted to eat.

Its head is a giant python, with huge bone spurs growing out. The bone spurs release strong electronic pulses, and each pulse will form a huge ball lightning to wrap around his body. Under the huge head is a pair of huge wings, which are always

Keep beating.

The overwhelming evil and power roared across, and the ancient pyramid, which weighed at least tens of thousands of tons, shook horrifyingly. Large pieces of gravel and tons of sand poured down, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time.

The terrifying giant snake is squatting deep in the highest pyramid. Its link-shaped trunk is covered with blood-red scales and is covered with purple-red luminous cysts. A viscous substance is slowly flowing. This seems to be what it can do in legend.

The reason for soaring in the void.

Griffith examined the mutated creature.

The bone spurs that emit ball lightning seem to be biological sensory glands, which are used to collect and process environmental information. They are powerful organs for detecting radiation, electromagnetism and light perception.

The giant sword pulled out of the snake's mouth has rows of huge barbs. A smoke-like dense community of undead creatures hangs there restlessly, ready to spray terrifying attacks at any time. These have terrifying sharp teeth and a disgusting appearance.

The creatures are like locusts in the sky. Their souls have long been connected to their masters, and they cannot resist the crazy will at all, becoming puppet-like "nest bugs".

"The ancestral spirit is above, are these the leaders and warriors who were swallowed up by it?"

Warlord Echirum was so frightened that he lost the courage to fight and even fell to his knees on the ground unable to pull up.

Looking at this monster will cause damage to one's mind, and all kinds of crazy thoughts and knowledge will flow into the brain unstoppably——

Predation. Blood-eaters in the Void Realm can spit out their long tongues to capture prey, and can also suck the life out of all living things. The person who is attacked is just tired at first, will gradually develop symptoms of anemia, and will eventually become a mummy.

Infection. A horrific plague will spread among all living creatures.

Mind control. Domon will periodically control an enemy, and the will of the void it is connected to can even corrode supernatural beings and mythical creatures.

Parasitism. Monsters like Sons of Domon will appear in the bodies of creatures parasitized by it. They have petal-like mouthparts and dragon-like outlines. They absorb nutrients while waiting for the right time to burst out of the body.

The swollen alien shadow stands in the darkness, its image is hateful and has a huge sense of oppression. The nightmarish figure seems to be the embodiment of all death and corruption in the world.

In the dark, Griffith heard a whisper——

"The unspeakable will is condensing the fragments of the wishing vessel. His will is enough to control powerful extraordinary beings and drag them into the abyss of corruption and mutation."

This voice is not the language of snakes, nor does it sound like human speech. It seems to echo in the void, indicating the unstoppable law and destiny.

The giant snake swung its tens-meter-long giant sword and slashed it down. The air waves rolled up an endless rain of stinking blood, pouring out venom and broken undead creatures.

"Come on, all of you," Aaron shouted, "give me time to recharge!"

William and Xin Sadie's faces twisted. They were Commodus' subordinates, but the current situation was extremely dangerous and they had no choice.

William immediately aimed at the human face on the snake's back and shot. He loaded it with explosive bullets, which exploded after hitting the target, causing the giant snake to raise its hands to defend itself.

However, the giant sword that followed swept away the attack. The giant sword, which was almost made up of countless corpses, surged with a monstrous aura of decay, and the rich blood cut out a phantom of hell in the air.

The Extraordinaries who besieged the giant snake were repelled by the violent wind pressure and flew out like leaves. The prayers and attacks of Xin Sati and William were all interrupted, and the warlord Ekirum rolled out like a grass ball.

.

Griffith, who was standing at the front, was hit head-on. He rolled sideways, but failed to avoid the fierce sweeping wind pressure and flew directly backwards.

"My flesh and blood, gather together and devour it!"

The giant snake's flesh-and-blood giant sword continued to sprinkle festering corpse monsters. These shambling monsters still retained the outlines of trolls and humans. They fell into the acid on the ground like snowflakes, letting out a hissing and suppressed scream, and then carried with them

The bone-gnawing venom bounced.

More and more living corpses became more painful and crazy under the stimulation of venom, lying on all fours like wild beasts, swarming in from all directions.

"Having such powerful spiritual power, but only these means?" Aaron took two steps back calmly, "Griffith, step forward and buy time! I have found the way to victory.

"The fragments of its godhead belong to us!"

The knight who had just been knocked away and hit the stone wall turned into a ball of dark red liquid like a melted candle, squirming, gathering and stretching, and turned into a human form again.

The teardrop-like liquid gathered into a tall and upright figure. In another rubble, Griffith pushed away the stone, and the magic ring "Kazni's Miracle" in his left hand embodied a round of swords, spears, and halberds.

, projections of battle axes, war hammers and flails.

"Minos!" Griffith projected the ancient sealed object throwing spear "Zircon" and a halberd, and threw it towards his clone.

Two Griffiths, each holding powerful weapons, moved forward side by side like flowing water phantoms.

Flickering arcs of light, constant buzzing, and trembling, the arc light thrown by Minos penetrated the scales of the giant snake. Griffith followed closely with the light in his hand, and the thin psychic lightning tore the air, and in

A dazzling brilliance bloomed in the darkness.

The blows in tandem left a light blue electric arc attached to the giant snake's wound, and the gushing blood continued to burn and explode in the electric light, until the flesh and blood "squeaked".

Aaron's spiritual torrent is continuously pouring into Hanguang. Every second, Griffith can feel that the holy sword in his hand becomes more powerful, so powerful that it can even tear apart the plane and shatter all worlds!

"Boom!"

When Hanguang slashed down, his sharp edge was sharp. The strong light and dizziness even deprived the giant snake of its vision and hearing for a short time. Wherever the sword touched, the zombies exploded into pieces, breaking into pieces of dark green flower fields.

However, the venom secreted by the exploding corpse monsters and giant snakes also spread, and the interior of the pyramid, which was not spacious in the first place, was almost submerged by the venom.

"Think of a way!" the nun on the side shouted anxiously, "In a while, we won't even have any bones left!"

"The destined time has come..."

A powerful and solemn aura suddenly appeared on Aaron's body. Golden halo of light rotated around him, gathering into cone-like thorns of light. The power of this light connected with Griffith's holy sword and resonated.

"Give you one last chance, my miserable clone, the puppet who failed to become an adult," Aaron said, "Yes, I am exactly what the [Heavenly Kingdom] is about to come.

"I will make you surrender by God's decree!"

A powerful momentum suddenly erupted, Griffith's eyes shone brightly, and invisible spiritual pressure gathered around him into a halo of light. Under the unprecedented surge of spiritual energy, this solid building emitted a breathtaking sound.

Shaking violently with fear and trembling, the pyramid's more than ten-meter-thick stone wall cracked with several cracks of astonishing dimensions, and hot and humid air rushed in from the outside.

"How is that possible! Impossible!" The giant snake neighed in surprise, and the human face that looked like Aaron on its back opened its mouth in shock, "Why! Why does a mortal body have such power!?"

The holy sword wrapped in light trembled, tearing apart the disguise of matter and illusion, revealing its ferocious and magnificent body.

"I know this sword!" The giant snake's eyes stood straight up, and all the cells in its body were warning, "Why can a mortal body be given such authority!?"

"Kill it," Aaron raised his chin towards the war knight, "Kill it, Griffith. I already know the secret, and it is correct! Now, let me tell you the real conditions for the miracle.

——

"The first condition is 'authority'. Having the authority of God's hand is the foundation of human evolution."

The bright sword edge flashed and struck straight at the giant snake.

A huge arm shrouded in mist protected the giant snake, and before anyone could react, it blocked a sharp cut from it.

The giant snake that escaped the attack started frantically destroying the stone wall, hitting it with all its might with its huge body.

"Why is this different from God's instructions?" The giant snake cursed angrily, "But? But why? Why does he have such a powerful power?!"

The light in front of me is shrinking, and the space is distorting.

Griffith took back the holy sword he had just swung: "It can actually achieve such power. If it strikes with all its strength..."

Aaron took all this for granted, as if he had glimpsed the truth of the universe:

“The second condition is that a ‘qualified person’ must restrain his own desires, remain unmoved in the face of power, prestige, wealth and status, and put lofty ideals above mundane desires...

"The third condition is 'courage'. You must have the courage to abandon this skin and seize and absorb the authority of other gods' hands! In this way, new life will be born. When this 'born thing' wakes up, it needs

Gather the authorities from different channels and merge them into one!

"Finally, give it a 'true name'! Griffith, in the era we pioneered, give it a unique true name!"

The arms protecting the giant snake have disappeared, the fighting spirit has plummeted to the bottom in fear, and despair and boundless oppression have imprisoned it.

Griffith held the holy sword with both hands in a high-spirited manner and slowly raised it upward. With the holy sword as the center, the world seemed to be imprisoned in a vortex of gravity.

Countless corpse monsters from all directions were pushed down by the wind pressure, making them unable to lift themselves up.

Time and space seemed to have stagnated. No matter how anxious and frightened the giant snake was, it could not escape the gaze of the holy sword.

"Are you going to die here!?" The faces on the giant snake's back were all distorted by fear, and they had no time to care about their own manners. Their eyes were fixed on the energy vortex gathering in front of them.

The eve of death seems endless, as long as an era has passed.

Griffith held the Hanguang in his hand high above his head, shouting the name of the miracle in his hand:

"The beacon smoke is gone, Luoshui is dust-free!"

Accompanied by thunder like the arrival of gods, a brilliance comparable to the stars swept across the battlefield.

The huge body and weapons of the giant snake melted in the high temperature. The high-energy beam cut through the thick stone wall and pierced out from the core of the pyramid.

In the direction pointed by the holy sword, the ruins of Zul'Haka, plants, bones and rocks all melted into the wave, forming colorful crystals, which were turned into endless waves of flames. They cooled rapidly in the air and condensed into a giant wave.

Waves, mountain peaks and snow-like glass secrets.



Diana could hardly stand on the swaying pyramid. This magnificent ancient building roared on the verge of collapse, and even the thick stone walls melted in the waves of fire and collapsed into ashes.

"This place is going to collapse!"

Amber grabbed her two companions and jumped towards the safety of the square. Rorschach also spread her wings and chased after them.

Several people passed by the square that had been destroyed by the battle and there was only a white field, and landed a hundred meters away from the fighting Erza and Commodus.

"..."

Suddenly, the forces that had been fighting fiercely just now fell into unexpected silence. Commodus also took a few steps back and looked at the broken buildings with vigilance.

I saw Aaron slowly walking out of the molten magma fire. He was surrounded by layers of magic balls and magic shields. He was not afraid of the high temperature, and his face showed the sanctity and calmness of entering the kingdom of heaven.

"Aaron, you..."

There was a trace of surprise on Commodus's face. He didn't even need the Son of Prophecy to answer. The lost divinity from the giant snake and the eternal ladder had already poured into the body of the Hand of God. On top of Naira's divinity, the second

Authority at the level of Hand of God is shared.

The crystalline substance began to condense in the hands of each god's hand, crystallizing like the extraordinary properties precipitated. The fragments of the artifact began to take shape!

"It's too late, look at the good things you have done," Rorschach said bitterly, "The Hand of God has entered the second state. The divinity has become a part of the wish-making device in the material plane."

Aaron looked at the fragments of the artifact in his hand and put them away calmly. His eyes fell on Erza again, and then he looked back at Griffith.

"The pollution of extraordinary characteristics is material. As long as it is a living thing, it cannot be resisted by will alone. Erza Valkyrie, what I can say is that before human will, there is the material body first. Material is everything.

The basis and essence of existence, and consciousness is the product of matter.

"Therefore, you cannot give up your artifact. After accepting God's blessing, divinity takes precedence over human will.

"Hands of the gods, let's fight! The artifact fragment is the last chance given by fate. Only by cutting off the connection with it can you break free from the prison of matter."

Griffith felt that the truce contract was lifted, and the gods no longer paid attention to this place. Aaron's body soared toward the sky, gradually disappearing:

"Fight the final fight to the death, with the hand of God. At the end of victory, I will guide you into the highest kingdom of heaven!"



Aaron passed through a rift in space and left here far away. Rorschach also disappeared into the shadows.

Griffith had just walked out of the collapsed pyramid with a deep kick and a shallow kick. The moment he made eye contact with Erza, Commodus, and the three God Hands, he knew the other party's intention!

"Everyone, please listen to me!" Diana said hurriedly. Before she could finish her words, Erza turned into a bolt of lightning and shot straight into the sky. Commodus, without looking back, rushed out of Zulhakar's city wall.

Diana hurriedly called him, but the regicide didn't listen to the princess at all and disappeared into the deep rain forest.

"Then..." Alandel muttered with some disappointment, "I think everyone must have realized that we are going to have another battle next, facing Erza who is like a natural disaster and the greatly strengthened Summons

The regicide who killed his own army."

Diana sadly looked at the direction in which Commodus was escaping, and came to Griffith's side: "I originally thought that I could persuade Commodus... let's talk about it together..."

Griffith did not answer, but turned back and walked towards the pyramid he had just left. Diana, Alandel and Amber hurriedly followed.

What appeared in front of them was an ancient ruin that was desolate, dilapidated, and almost disappeared under the devastating blow. The foundation of the megalithic pyramid was deeply rooted in the ground, intertwined and twisted with the entangled root system like a giant snake.

The giant trees and vines entangled in the collapsed buildings stubbornly grew into strange and twisted shapes like giant snakes, forming roads that passed through deep and bottomless cracks in the earth.

Fragmented tree trunks and boulders mixed with fresh tree branches and leaves, sometimes intertwined, sometimes twisted, penetrated deeply into the ground, like a giant hand with irresistible power that raked through the area, leaving behind

Leaving recklessly after leaving traces of chaos.

Griffith and the others were very familiar with this place. It was no different from other troll territories in the underground world, with ancient ruins, dense rainforests, strange creatures, tangled tree trunks and strange-smelling rot.

earth.

Griffith came to the place where he had just defeated Domon, deep in the Lair of the Eternal Staircase.

At this time, the power of the holy sword has subsided, but the remaining plants nearby are still trembling and curling up on the edge of the ashes in fear, not daring to cross the border at all, as if they are afraid of being burned and destroyed again.

"This is simply a desert of destruction. The psychic lightning destroys all life wherever it goes!" Amber exclaimed, "Can you do such an attack again?"

"Unfortunately, Miss Investigator, all the previous power relied on Aaron's energy," Griffith said frankly. "He has achieved his goal, so he probably won't be generous with me anymore."

"But it also unlocked the seal of your holy sword, didn't it? He is very kind to you~" Alandel took over with a smile, "When we are beaten up later, can he come to save us again?

?Do you have any mysterious crystal necklaces, rings, etc. that you can call for help in an emergency?"

After trudging for a while, Griffith suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice:

"This is it."

They crossed the fighting area and came to the pyramid that was not completely destroyed. Hanguang's earth-shattering blow directly turned the cultivation room on the bottom into powder, and all the plants that were originally entrenched in the pyramid shrank to the last corner.

Impressively, a huge flower field was formed.

Dense blood orchids and vines cluster together, like a red and green sea voyage, as gorgeous as a dream.

Griffith looked at this situation and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then stepped forward.

"Be careful!" Diana exclaimed. Although the blood orchids here are only the last refuge, they are clearly the last remnants of the Eternal Staircase. They have lost their habitat and nutrients and will soon wither. On the verge of extinction,

At a critical moment, any creature will do extremely crazy things in order to survive!

Griffith took a deep breath and said:

"It was not a good idea to use Hanguang inside the pyramid. During the battle, I was always worried that the excessive power would shatter the entire building and bury us alive. However, I did it in the end. Do you know why?"

Amber looked at him, and her spirituality was touched. The horror she had witnessed in Raven vaguely emerged again, and this time, at the core of the gloomy psychic vortex, it was Griffith!

Amber asked: "Isn't it to completely destroy the Eternal Staircase? Only here can we completely destroy its foundation and strive to free Erza from its control."

Griffith nodded slightly: "This is one of them.

"There is another reason..."

Speaking of this, Griffith's eyes flashed with a hint of fanaticism!

"This damn thread of life has been entangled with me since a long time ago. Krista, Elodie, and Erza have been eroded. He is behind so many tragedies."

Diana whispered: "Burn this place. Without the support of reality, the control of Erza by the thread of life will weaken. We can... help her escape."

Griffith stood upright on the ground, the bone ring in his left hand was filled with spiritual energy, and it seemed that even the deep darkness could not bear to be ravaged, and he let out a low sigh.

"No.

"This is a curse brought by the outer gods. They wantonly confuse and harm humans when they are ignorant and weak.

"Wouldn't it be too kind to give it destruction so easily? What I want is to be like this now - on the verge of destruction, the lingering Eternal Staircase, just one thought can strangle it to death. Now, the Eternal Staircase is the most vulnerable

By that time, all that was left of its conspiracy was this small fragment. It was its turn to taste what it was like to be enslaved.”

Griffith leaned down and grabbed the surviving blood orchid with his left hand with the bone ring. These crazy plants were trying to escape like they were attacked by natural enemies, but they were grabbed.

Powerful spiritual energy was echoing. Griffith, who had obtained the divinity of Naira and Domon successively, appeared in the hand of a diamond-shaped crystal. When his spiritual energy was poured through the crystal, the authority to control the armies was irresistibly eroded.

spread.

The corpses buried in Zul'haka, sacrificed to the Stairway to Eternity over hundreds of thousands of years, have been awakened.

The rotting animal bones in the rain forest were driven by powerful spiritual energy to gather together and drill out of the humus soil.

Scattered throughout the underground world, the undead lieutenants who were already in place heard Griffith's will.

Across the rainforest, sea and mountains, the giant beast buried in Verona opened its eyes in its sleep, with blue flames burning in its eye bones!

Diana had a premonition of what was about to happen, and her body couldn't help but tremble: "Griffith, please think about it again. Commodus has gained new strength, and he still has an army here."

"That's very good, princess. This way, His Highness the Prince will have enough time to surrender before he is destroyed by me."

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Griffith's mouth.

Even now, the promotion of the Sequence 5 "Conqueror" still lacks a ceremony and a battle that has not yet ended.

The time for promotion has arrived! ()
