Wasteland Echoer

In an instant, the sky was clearly divided into two parts, as if it had undergone extremely precise mechanical cutting.

From the middle of the confrontation between Lorca and Ivan XXII, to the left, on the side of the emperor, is a dark, blood-red doomsday hell scene; while to the right, on the side of Lorca and the two "Future" teenagers, is A rapidly expanding golden, glorious and holy world.

"Light, this is the power of light." "Future" shouted. As the "controller" of the dark magic source power, the power nature in "Future"'s body will resonate with the hostility of the light magic source power, and even It's a conflict.

However, at this moment, facing Ivan XXII who has been influenced by the "power of the underworld" and corroded by the scenes of "underworld" and "hell", the darkness in the "future" body unexpectedly quickly interacts with the surrounding light power. Reconciliation.

Now, as the son of darkness, "Future" is not only fearless and disgusted by the light, but he can feel the peace, harmony... and abundant power given to him by the holy light.

In fact, no matter whether the power in human hands is dark or white, whether the spirit is immersed in carnival or sorrow, chaotic or calm, except for the balance and obvious restraint relationship between the magic source power, it will not be displayed on the human body. Absolute hostility.

And once faced with the ultimate evil and darkness beyond the jurisdiction of the order gods, any magic source power can eliminate mutual restraint and hostility, transform into close collaborators, and jointly deal with danger.

Legend has it that when the "Creator" created the universe and stars, hostile attacks would come from other dimensions from time to time. They are either obvious energy body collisions, or they quietly seep into some evil forces, affecting the forms of created things.

Therefore, when the "Creator" finished creating the world and was about to fall into sleep, he added protective clauses to the original "principles".

"Appendix 209: There is a restraint relationship between the magic source powers. The upper-level magic source powers are more complex, and there is the possibility of mutual restraint. But in the face of the existence of forces that destroy the entire system of magic source powers, this restraint will That translates into collaboration.”

Roka, possessed by the golden light, made a voice that neither belonged to him, nor to a human being, a lost person, or a monster. It was holy, ethereal, and majestic in a way that was difficult to understand but made people feel peaceful, but it didn't have too much. In an emotional tone, he recited:

"Appendix 210: The evil forces do not belong to the darkness of the Night Lord series, nor to the evil spirits of the ancient gods, nor to the ignorance and arrogance of the order gods. They do not belong to the entire universe, including the time and space that exists here. space.

"Appendix 211: The beyond-concept defense system built by the power of dimensions cannot resist all subtle evils. They will always land on the planet where humans live, affecting intelligent beings, giving them extraordinary power and After being lucky enough to become elites such as rulers, they subconsciously influence their thinking and lead them to evil.

"Appendix 212: There is no possibility of salvation for people affected by evil in the external dimension. Good and evil, right and wrong, justice and injustice have already been reversed in their spiritual realm. But they are often strong enough, so facing When dealing with evil, you must cooperate, and there is no other option than cooperation.”

Snapped! Snapped! …

After listening to Lorca's story, Ivan XXII clapped unconsciously. This was not only a kind of resentment against Lorca's sudden acquisition of light power, but also extreme anger at being defined as "evil".

As a [Order], one of the greatest emperors of Crusted, he is very familiar with the information about the "Creator". In the past, he had always been dismissive of gods. He had neither seen any real gods coming, nor had he experienced much that could prove their power.

And now, here, at the "lowest bottom", the juncture of this "underworld" and the human world, he truly saw it for the first time. However, his identity was the villain who asked to be eliminated.

All along, Ivan XXII has insisted that everything he does is for the Krusted subjects and for the evolution and development of mankind.

For this reason, he would rather destroy the Krusted Empire and seal himself in the "Bitter Ruins", an underground place full of "sadness", the dead, and the smell of decay, and sleep for thousands of years.

If he doesn't want to endure the pain, he can completely use the special ability of [Order] and [Sacrifice] to "replace destiny" to be reborn with consciousness and magic power, and freely observe the wasteland world from different angles. .

If you are lucky, you can still serve as a senior general of Crusted, the Zine Empire, and even the Khitanris people with your strength and experience, until the appearance of the Child of Destiny who starts the "Restart Era". At that time, he can just go back to the "Suffering Deep Ruins".

Now, facing the two lost people "newly constructed human beings", Ivan XXII can neither recruit them for his own use nor obtain absolute suppression in the game of power. In fact, the "evolution" of human beings is not only It was not fully completed, and even when there were countless opportunities to end the "Wasteland Era", I failed to make the right decision because of desire and greed.

He was angry... violent... roaring... feeling unwilling...

The human part of his body was further lost. Gradually, Ivan XXII found that the originally familiar Kreuz German words became more and more blurred. His brain was occupied by the sudden animal nature, and he gradually became unable to reassemble it. Any sentence.

He lost the ability to speak. Apart from the savage roars in his throat, only his wings expanded several times. The armor covering the surface of his body began to break. Rattans stretched out and wrapped around his body, making it look more and more swollen. .

Soon, his arms turned into giant black cannons, and his legs and waist became bloated and swollen, as if he were wearing several swimming rings.

His feet expanded several times, his toes grew uncontrollably and turned into slender branches, while his head was completely pressed inward, integrating with the huge mechanical heart emitting blue light on his chest.

As Ivan XXII's body expanded from two meters to four meters, his heart began to send blue flames to his whole body. The feathers on his wings detached one after another, and the muscle tissue fell off, turning into a dark goo. The white skeleton covered with things.

Blessed and surrounded by the extreme "underworld" and evil forces, Ivan 22 successfully broke through the barrier of the golden curtain of light. Not only did he break into the holy realm, but he also emitted countless darkness in an instant. point of light.

Before Lorca and "Future" could make a counterattack, the light points collapsed one after another and turned into countless rings that spread out into the dark realm. In just two seconds, this sacred realm disappeared and returned. There was darkness and blood red.

"Roar! Ear!" Angry, manic, shrill, and sharp roars came out from the heart of Ivan 22 in parallel. He stretched out his skeletal wings manically to hammer at Loka, but he bounced softly to avoid it. .

However, after coming back to his senses, Luo Ka even surged up the magic power that was already part of the light. With his instantaneous powerful understanding, he constructed a magic circle the size of his body and superimposed it on Ivan 22's demons and monsters. The body sent out a powerful bright cannonball impact.

But it couldn't shake its body at all, not even a trace was left.

And Ivan XXII just suddenly raised the muzzle of his right arm and shot out a ball of purple light, which instantly melted the mechanical arm that Roca had just given birth to, turning it into a pile of useless fragments. .

After rolling several times on the ground, Luo Ka stabilized his body with the help of "Future". He felt dizzy, his consciousness began to blur, his throat felt unusually itchy, and he couldn't help but cough violently.

Reluctantly getting up, Luo Ka and "Future" worked together to build a defensive wall of magic source power in a superimposed state of light and darkness, making a final defensive stance.

"'Future', Ivan XXII...has gone completely crazy. I seem to feel...there must be a kind of power in the 'Evil Order Group' integrated with his [Order] profession, which can completely abandon The human body and spirit turned into an extremely violent fighting machine. I remember...it belonged to the [Slaughterer]." Lorca said while holding back a cough.

"I know it too, but there is no weakness in this ability. If we have to talk about a weakness, it is time. This violent state varies according to the thickness of the magic source power, and the time it can be maintained is limited. As long as we can survive one second, it will be more The chance of winning is one in ten thousand." "Future" analyzed.

"However, in the 'future', my magic source power has been exhausted. Just now... I can feel that it is the 'Goddess of Light' that I admire and serve, who recognized my strength on the edge of death and allowed me to survive like this. Promoted to the upper level of magic source power under extreme conditions...ahem..." Luo Ka coughed and said:

"However, I can feel that the magic power in my body has been exhausted. Not only is there no magic power that can be drawn from nature, but every minute and second that exists here is consuming them. You know, the magic power When exhausted, it consumes the spirit and will.

"Physical wounds can be repaired with medicine and surgery. Once the spirit and thinking are consumed, it cannot be reversed or made up for unless the gods provide for it. The Lost... once their mental power is completely exhausted, they will degenerate into 'Heartless People' and are powerful. , it will turn into a 'alien monster'."

"Stop talking, I will protect you, I just promised you." "Future" interrupted.

"No, I mean, kill me when I am completely crazy. I will not completely collapse in torture like 'Wind Mine' and become a poor 'Plamini Axe' at the mercy of others. Although , it has something to do with me that he became like that." Luo Ka said solemnly:

"Sins need to be paid for. It is the best atonement for you to pierce my head with the pistol given to me by Brother Ice Blade."

"Nonsense, I won't do this. I still have the power of the ancient gods, I still have the power of the dark magic source, and I still have the 'Zhuo Gen Zhi'...'Zhuo Gen Zhi', hasn't it already been used by me? Did you consume it and use it to advance to the [Explorer] profession and come here?" "Future" looked at the coat of arms "Zhuo Ge Zhixiao" with the word "death" and the dragon totem in his hand with a confused look on his face, and said in confusion :

"Why...when exactly...did he appear in my palm again?"
