"Sakyamuni?"

Xuan Hao asked doubtfully, "I have heard of this, but what does this matter have to do with Sakyamuni?"

"First of all, theoretically speaking, humans cannot defeat gods no matter what. You don't deny this, right?" Brunhilde did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically.

Her question does not require Xuan Hao to answer, because since Xuan Hao raised the question just now, he must agree with this point of view.

"Even Lu Bu can't win a one-on-one confrontation with the gods. To sum up the reason, I think so..." Brynhildr explained to herself, "The gods are absolutely powerful. The root of this lies in...their weapons made in heaven - artifacts! Weapons forged by humans...human weapons are too fragile. As you can see, they can't even connect with Lu Bu's power as a human. It's unbearable, and when placed in front of the gods, it's no different than a toy. I'm afraid that after one round of fighting, it will be annihilated into ashes, right?"

"..."

Xuan Hao remained silent and did not answer.

Although he had heard the problem from the other person's point of view, he knew that Brünnhilde was not done yet. If you want to make comments, it's not too late to wait until the other person has finished speaking.

"It is simply impossible for humans to overcome the mystery of holding an artifact," Brynhildr continued.

"Then... isn't this a sure defeat?" Gray on the side panicked when he heard this.

However, Brünnhilde smiled: "Then what happens if humans hold artifacts?"

"Huh?" Gray was slightly startled when he heard this.

Looking at her sister's surprised expression, Brünnhilde believed that her idea was not wrong: "Yes, this is the way I think humans can defeat gods. Only fellow 'artifacts' can fight against 'artifacts'..."

As he spoke, several vortexes emerged in the hall behind Brunhild.

"Are you calling us? Sister..." The overlapping female voices echoed throughout the Hall of Valor.

"In compliance with the order of eldest sister Brunhilde, eleven Valkyries and I are gathered here."

As the majestic sound resounded, several figures slowly emerged from the whirlpool, bowing slightly to say hello to Brünnhilde.

"Female... Valkyrie sisters!!"

Gray on the side was slightly shocked when she saw this scene.

Because Brünnhilde called the remaining eleven Valkyries! This moment should be the first time in history that the thirteen Valkyries are gathered together!

"Sister...what are you...going to do?" She looked at Brünnhilde nervously and asked.

"Lanti Grace, step forward."

Brünnhilde did not answer, but calmly ordered one of the arriving Valkyries.

"yes."

Following the order, Randy Grace, the fourth female Valkyrie, raised her skirt slightly and stepped forward.

"Lanti Grace, do you know Lord Thor's artifact, right?" Brynhildr asked lightly.

"Of course..." Randy Grace nodded slightly and replied, "The 'Iron Gloves' Yann Gripper, who can block any attack, and the most important one, who is famous for his 'Annihilation of the Frost Giant Legion' 'Thor's Hammer' Mjolnir."

"That's right." Brünnhilde smiled and nodded after hearing this, "They are two of the 'artifacts' held by Lord Thor, and they are second to none even in the heaven. If you want to defeat Lord Thor, you must first have a confrontation. Their method will work. Randy Grace, can you please...dedicate yourself to this?"

"Of course...sister."

Hearing this, Randy Grace knelt down on one knee with a smile, "It's a great honor."

"????"

Hearing this, both Gray and Xuanhao looked confused.

"Dedicate yourself...?"

Before Xuan Hao could get confused, Gray asked the question he wanted to ask first, "What does it just mean?"

"When you ask this question, you should already have the answer in your mind, right? Gray."

Brünnhilde asked Gray with a serious expression.

The expression on Gray's face was extremely nervous at this moment. It was obvious that she actually knew the meaning of 'dedication'.

"That's right, that's the hidden ability of our sisters, the Valkyries..." Brunhilde answered calmly towards Xuan Hao, "The body of the Valkyrie can change its form and become a human weapon, making humans 'Obtaining 'artifacts', this ability is called - artifact forging."

"No, not enough."

After listening to Brünnhilde's explanation, Xuan Hao retorted mercilessly.

"First of all, your starting point is wrong. The premise of all your judgments is that human beings can fight against gods. And this itself is wrong... Sure enough, even if you were once a human being, you are now After being a god for a long time, will you still become narrow-minded? You must have watched the battle between Lu Bu and me, right? There is no difference between the weapons we used, even the ones I used were of inferior quality, but in the end I won Yes. Was it the weapon that affected this result? No..."

"It's the physique."

Brünnhilde was not annoyed by Xuan Hao's unceremonious rebuttal, but pointedly pointed out the key to the problem.

"Yes, of course I have also noticed this problem... so 'artifact forging' alone is not enough, which is why I mentioned Lord Sakyamuni."

"Oh? Keep talking."

Xuan Hao nodded slightly when he heard this.

It seemed that he was overthinking it. It turned out that the other party had already thought of the crux of the problem, so of course he didn't mind hearing about the other party's solution.

"In Buddhism, there is a term called 'One Lotus Holds Life'. Sir, have you heard of it?"

asked Brünnhilde.

"Each of us will leave half a seat on the Chenghua Terrace for my companions in Yanfu." Xuan Hao nodded lightly and said, "It refers to the two of them leading to bliss after death, right?"

"Yes."

Brünnhilde replied with a serious look, "We have long known that if humans want to fight against gods, weapons alone are not enough. If we don't have the consciousness to risk our lives and go to hell together, it is impossible to stand on the same stage with gods. Qualifications for the competition! So I asked Lord Sakyamuni for a Buddhist method called 'One Lotus Enlightenment'. The effect is to offer everything including our souls to the Valkyrie! Bind to the chosen one On top of human souls, it will be used to strengthen the chosen ones! Not only the forging of artifacts, but also the Valkyries like us will live and die together with the humans who step onto the battlefield, and go to hell together!"

"Are we going to hell together? That's a good realization."

Hearing this, Xuan Hao smiled softly.

But the smile on his face quickly disappeared.

"Now that you have become enlightened, you must be clear about it, right? There are some things that even being enlightened are not enough. I have only one question - the so-called 'one lotus rebirth' that you asked Sakyamuni 'Is there really a way to strengthen the human beings participating in the war to a level that is completely equal to that of gods?"

"..."

Faced with Xuan Hao's question, all the Valkyries chose to remain silent.

The answer is obvious, impossible.

In Xuan Hao's view, the gap between humans and gods, at least in this world, refers to the will of the world. How can a mere Valkyrie resist the gods who are blessed by the will of the world?

Therefore, even if the Valkyries in front of them have the consciousness to go to hell with mankind, they cannot cross that gap.

"It's a pity." Finally, Brynhildr shook her head slightly and replied in a heavy tone, "We are only demigods after all. Even if we try our best, this is the limit of what we can do."

"Is that true?"

Hearing this answer, Xuanhao grinned.

Yes, under the surprised looks of the Valkyries, the man smiled.

"Do you... really have a way to bridge this gap?"

Brünnhilde's eyes looked at Xuan Hao, full of hope.

············

skyline.

Valhalla Arena.

There was a huge crowd at this moment.

No, it's not just humans from all time and space, there are also gods gathering again at this moment.

Deafening cheers resounded throughout the arena.

Whether they are gods or humans, they are all looking forward to these unprecedented duels at this moment.

That was the first head-to-head battle between humans and gods since the beginning of the world!

"Spring goes and autumn comes...how many years have I been waiting for?"

The voice representing the end slowly sounded.

The priest in charge of the end, the Nordic god Heimdall, the gatekeeper of the end, is holding the horn in his hand and standing excitedly in the center of the field.

"How many years have I been waiting for!? I have waited until this moment to blow this 'horn of the end'!!! I hereby declare that the final war between humans and gods, Ragnarok, has begun!!! You guys Are you guys ready for me!!!?”

"oh--"

He was answered with excited cheers from the audience.

"——"

The cheers stopped abruptly when Heimdall raised his finger.

Everyone was waiting quietly for him to explain the rules of Ragnarok.

"The rules are simple! The 'death' of either party means that their existence itself disappears forever to determine the winner!!"

This extremely cruel rule echoed throughout the Valhalla Arena along with Heimdall's voice.

"Finally...are we going to start?"

Gray looked at everything in front of him nervously.

There is no doubt that what will be staged next will be a battle that risks existence itself!

The loser's soul will be shattered, and not even the soul fragments will be left.

Although Sister Brunhilde and the human named Xuan Hao seemed to have discussed a complete countermeasure, she still felt extremely nervous when the moment actually arrived.

Because she knew that if the humans fighting on behalf of humans failed, it would mean that one of her sisters would die with them.

However, there is no point in being afraid. The final trumpet has sounded and nothing can stop.

"The first battle - the vanguard of the gods is -"

Amidst Heimdall's loud roar, a loud noise came from the passage representing the gods.

boom--

The sound was as deafening as rolling thunder.

"As long as it is a god, no one is afraid of its power, and no one wants to see it go all out. But unfortunately... Mjolnir, who is said to be able to even shatter the earth, has never wielded it with all his strength!" Heimdall Like a referee on the ring, he waved his hand towards the channel representing the god's side.

Heavy footsteps came from it.

"Come on, let's cheer! Welcome this thunderous male god with thunderous cheers! It represents the first round of the battle for the gods! If he doesn't fight, who else can!? Born to fight, the most powerful man in Northern Europe The powerful thunder, this berserker—Thor—god!!!”

"Oh-"

Accompanied by the cheers of the gods, a figure carrying a heavy hammer on his shoulders and walking with heavy steps slowly walked out of the passage. Every step he took seemed to be stepping on the drum surface, as powerful as thunder.

Yes, this god is Thor, the God of Thunder whom Xuan Hao saw outside the Valhalla Council Hall.

Now that Thor was on stage, he naturally hoped to meet the human who dared to provoke the gods.

It should be said that the conversation outside the Valhalla Council was Thor's declaration of war on Xuan Hao.

However, this time Thor was destined to be disappointed.

Because with Heimdall's introduction, he soon realized that the human being who was about to take the stage to fight him was not that man.

"And the vanguard representative sent by the fools who dare to challenge the gods is——this man!"

Boom——

As Heimdall finished speaking, a deafening sound of drums sounded, which was the sound of war drums coming from a distant battlefield.

Bang bang bang bang——

On both sides of the passage representing humanity, countless soldiers wearing armor waved the drumsticks in their hands, beating the drums and shouting desperately.

"Do you want it to end!? That long march that lasted seven million years!"

"Are you going to forget it!? The glory accumulated over seven million years!!"

Heimdall asked questions to the human soldiers like a qualified host.

And the answer to him was naturally shocking——

"No!!"

"No!!!"

"That's right, these fools! They chose to refuse!" Heimdall's tone was full of respect. This was a tribute to the fool who would take the stage next and dare to challenge the power of the gods. "At this moment, stand up to maintain the commonality of mankind." The man I long for—tell me, who else could there be besides this man!?”

tread--

As he spoke, the heavy sound of horse hooves that did not belong to thunder came galloping from the passage representing the human side.

With an angry neighing sound, the figure of the war horse jumped out of the intersection, and on its back, a majestic figure sat on it.

"Oh-"

After seeing this figure, the soldiers beating the drums let out earth-shaking roars, and some were even moved to tears.

Finally, after spanning thousands of years of time and space, they were finally able to see their lord fighting heroically again! !

"This is a human who can devour gods!! Is there any objection to calling him the strongest man in history!?" Heimdall asked the cheering soldiers.

"none!"

What answered him was a deafening roar and a fist-clapping sound that covered up the thunder.

In the stands, Chen Gong led the soldiers who had followed this man to conquer all directions and excitedly welcomed his classification.

This is the man they follow throughout their lives, this is the God of War in their hearts! The one who can be called the strongest hero in China - Lu Bu Fengxian! !
