Chapter 648: Crisis of the Valkyrie (10,000)
As soon as Ron entered the secret room where Arianna was practicing, his expression changed immediately.
His brows were furrowed, and his soul even trembled slightly for a moment.
It was like pure instinct. Ron did not stay in the secret room at all. His soul quickly withdrew from the secret room and returned to his body.
call.
As soon as he returned to his body, Ron let out a long breath and looked at the heavy stone door in front of him, which was about six or seven meters thick. His expression looked particularly solemn.
He originally thought that Arianna was just practicing quietly in the secret room, but when his soul just penetrated in, the scene he saw shocked him. He saw that the walls around the secret room were covered with reliefs of angels.
That’s right, all of them are angel reliefs.
Each relief was so lifelike that Ron even suspected that they were real angels branded on them.
Especially when he saw the eyes of those angel reliefs, Ron even felt that those angel reliefs were staring at him.
This is very abnormal.
Angel reliefs are a very common decoration on the Dusk Continent. Because angels serve the gods, angel reliefs and angel statues are also considered a symbol of good luck on the Dusk Continent.
Especially the nobles, they liked to decorate the castle's halls and even bedrooms with angel reliefs.
However, those are just real sculptures. No matter how beautifully they are carved, they rarely have that strong sense of reality that makes people's scalps tingle.
The moment Ron's soul penetrated in just now, for a split second he even felt like he had an illusion, as if he really saw an angel descending.
Most importantly, Ron didn't think Arianna would carve the angel relief in her secret room for practice.
The angel relief is also considered a mysterious object.
As a legendary practitioner, Arianna couldn't possibly be unaware of the impact that placing mysterious items like these would have on her when she practiced. The aura that she unconsciously released during her practice might very likely activate these mysterious items.
Once activated, it is likely to attract the attention of some mysterious beings.
For practitioners, there is not much difference between these mysterious beings, whether they are angels, evil spirits, or even evil gods. After all, they are beings that can easily cause their mental collapse.
If they were followers of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn, creating these angel reliefs would be barely acceptable, but Arianna is different. She is not a follower of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn. Arianna believes in the star god Selma.
The girl who is still sleeping in the Kingdom of Spong.
From the perspective of ordinary people in Dusk Continent, Arianna is a typical pagan who believes in evil gods.
Would a pagan create something like an angel relief?
Fallen angels are more like that.
If Arianna didn't make these things, then who did?
Could it be that...
Repairman? Subconsciously, Ron thought of this guy.
It has almost become an instinct, a habit.
As long as anything bad happens on the Dusk Continent, there will be no problem putting the blame on the repairman.
However, if the repairman really did this, then what was his purpose? Ron's eyes narrowed into a slit, and all kinds of thoughts kept flashing in his mind. After an unknown amount of time, Ron's pupils suddenly shrank, and there seemed to be a flash of lightning in his mind. It seemed that he had been doing something wrong all along.
He is a heretic.
The heretics that the repairman wanted to get rid of the most, besides Archibald and Zhou Yang, were him, Philomena, Partridge, and Hefferson.
But if you really count them, there are more heretics on the Dusk Continent than just them. Anyone whose fate has been changed because of what they have done can basically be considered a heretic.
Agnes.
Irelia.
Cecilia.
Dolores.
Serafina.
Christian...
Figures flashed through Ron's mind one after another, even... even the people whose fates had been rewritten, the Spang Theocracy and Granville, and millions and tens of millions of ordinary people.
What the repairman has always wanted to do is to return fate to its original course.
In the eyes of the repairman, those who survived because their fate was rewritten were targets that must be eliminated. It was just because they were more outstanding that the repairman paid more attention to them, but this did not mean that the repairman would let others go.
Of course, apart from these few troublemakers, the other so-called heretics, including Christian, Arianna, Dolores and others, although they have decent strength, this strength is not strong enough.
To deal with them, there is no need to spend time and energy looking for loopholes or asking gods to descend to the mortal world.
Angels are enough to wipe out these heretics.
However, due to the existence of rules on the Dusk Continent, even angels could not appear out of thin air on the Dusk Continent, so the repairman used other means to guide the angels' will to descend on the Dusk Continent, and while Arianna was practicing, he tried to influence or even erode Arianna's soul.
Once Arianna's spirit was corrupted, or changed, and her core changed from the original Valkyrie to an angel controlled by the repairman, it would be a devastating blow to the entire Dusk Continent... No, it might not affect Patrich, Philomena, or even Hefferson, but for Ron, it would definitely be a devastating blow.
Just think about it, if Arianna was really completely replaced by the angel, Granville would instantly be in dire straits.
This angel with Arianna's face appeared next to Dolores and others, and I'm afraid these people will not be on guard at all.
If there was another sudden attack, Dolores, Bai Yuan, Irelia, Cecilia, Seraphina and Agnes might all be in danger. After all, Ron had just seen that the angel reliefs on the wall were all six-winged angels.
The six-winged angel possesses the strength of a demigod.
Even if Irelia and the others have entered the realm of destruction, they are probably no match for a demigod-level angel.
Once something like this happens and the news reaches my ears, I am afraid that my spirit will collapse on the spot.
The most important thing is that if you are at a critical moment, such as breaking through a barrier or overcoming a tribulation, once you have a mental breakdown, the thunder will really strike you to pieces in the next second without leaving even a trace.
Although these are just Ron's speculations, the result is more like countless coincidences, a result forcibly pieced together, but Ron believes that with the repairman's methods, coincidence will become inevitable.
Ron was horrified at the thought of this.
His body trembled and his face turned very ugly.
He would never allow such a thing to happen.
Fortunately, he was not in a hurry to meet the thunder, but instead planned to stroll around, meet his woman, and adjust his mentality. Fortunately, he did not want to make Dolores worry, so he planned to come to check on Arianna's condition. Otherwise, he would be dead.
However, how to deal with the current situation has become a problem.
If you don't care about anything and just kill the secret room, or even Arianna in the secret room, this is definitely the easiest way.
It’s all over.
But if something happened to Arianna, I'm afraid Dolores would be very sad, after all, they have been together for many years.
And the question Ron had to consider was, is this the only case of something like Arianna happening?
Could a similar situation be happening elsewhere in the Dusk Continent?
If the secret room is not destroyed and the soul infiltrates alone, the soul will not have the protection of the physical body and the situation will become very dangerous. Even if Ron's soul is very strong, he may not be able to gain much benefit when facing the attack of the angel soul.
Looking at Arianna's current condition, it seems that she has been severely eroded. I am afraid that I will not be able to awaken Arianna's own will.
For a moment, Ron was in a state of confusion.
At this moment, a subtle voice suddenly came into Ron's ears.
The voice came from the secret room in front of him.
It was Arianna's voice.
But completely different from the strong and resolute temperament of Arianna that Ron was familiar with, Arianna's voice at this moment seemed particularly weak, more like a moan than a sound.
Full of groans of pain.
"Mr. Ron?"
“Kill me!”
The mosquito-like sound was still echoing in Ron's ears. If it weren't for the quietness around here and Ron's strong enough, he would not have been able to hear this noise.
Ron exhaled slowly.
It seems that Arianna's spirit has not yet completely collapsed.
Perhaps, this Valkyrie has been trying her best to resist.
A mere legendary cultivator was actually trying to resist the erosion of the six-winged angel. This process was definitely not pleasant and was filled with heart-breaking pain. Judging from the traces of the reliefs on the wall, this erosion should have lasted for a long time, perhaps more than a year.
He was able to hold out for such a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that he has a strong will.
Perhaps, Arianna had noticed when he infiltrated his soul before, so she sought help from him.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But the help did not mean saving her, but letting him kill her.
Ron sighed again, and the expression on his face looked a little strange.
Arianna didn't know what her current strength was, but she knew very well what kind of existence was trying to occupy her body.
Faced with such a terrifying existence, saving her life is far more dangerous than killing her.
Arianna no longer expected to survive, and she didn't want to drag Ron into the fire pit because of her own reasons, but Arianna also didn't want to see these angels using her appearance and her body to hurt those she cared about.
That's why Arianna asked Ron to kill her. This was the only solution she could think of at the moment.
But in this case, Ron wanted to save Arianna even more. After all, Arianna was still conscious and there was still a possibility of saving her.
Thinking of this, Ron quickly contacted Patridge and Hefferson and told them his speculation, hoping that they could also check whether there were similar situations around them.
Although the Andre family has been completely destroyed now, if this matter is not handled properly, a new Andre family will soon appear in front of them.
After explaining all these things, Ron took a deep breath. This time, he did not penetrate his soul. Since Arianna could communicate with him, it meant that Arianna's practice should be interrupted now.
In this situation, at least he wouldn't have to worry about making too much noise and disturbing Arianna's practice.
He took a step forward, stretched out his right hand, and scratched the heavy stone door with his sharp nails.
Swish.
Accompanied by strange sounds, pieces of stone chips fell down as Ron moved.
At the same time, the law of force had penetrated through Ron's fingers, and in an instant it completely pierced through the several-meter-thick boulder gate.
Immediately, he put a few fingers on the gap cut out on the boulder gate, and with a little force, Ron easily pulled out a large piece of stone.
He did not violently destroy the gate, but a small door appeared on it, just enough for Ron to enter and exit.
Through the small door, the figure of Arianna sitting cross-legged on the ground came into view. This time Ron saw it more clearly. Just behind Arianna, there was a pair of light wings that were faintly visible.
Angel wings.
Ron's expression turned solemn. Just from the pair of light wings, he could tell that Arianna's body had been severely eroded. It was only because Arianna herself had a strong spirit and willpower that she was able to hold on until now without collapsing.
If it were someone else, he would have become the angel's puppet long ago.
Her eyes were not open, but tightly shut.
His body seemed to be trembling as if he was in great pain.
The originally pretty face was now completely tangled up.
On the left and right sides, as well as on the walls above and behind, there are two angel reliefs, a total of eight.
The eyes of the eight angel reliefs were all fixed on Arianna. If you looked closely, you could even feel that there were thin silver-white arcs connecting the eyes of the angel reliefs and Arianna's body. From time to time, a slightly brighter light could be seen flashing on the silver-white arcs. It was some kind of mysterious power that was gradually invading Arianna's body.
And every time the light flickered, the pain on Arianna's face became more intense.
The moment Ron appeared, eight angel reliefs and sixteen lines of sight moved away from Arianna at the same time and all fell on Ron.
In an instant, Ron felt his body tense up, and in a trance, it seemed as if there were heavy and cold chains wrapped around his body, especially around his neck. Ron even felt a strong sense of suffocation.
Being stared at by eight six-winged angels at the same time, Ron felt a tightness in his chest and his breathing became sluggish.
This strange feeling made Ron very uncomfortable, and a soft white light began to ripple on his body. That light was even purer and cleaner than the light emitted by an angel.
The feeling of depression was swept away.
It seemed that these angels had not completely descended. At least now they could only exist in the form of reliefs and could not break away from the wall. This made Ron feel a little relieved.
He raised his right hand, and the law of force wrapped around his arm. In a short period of time, his strength had reached its limit. He then punched the wall nearest to him, trying to destroy the angel relief on the wall.
Bang……
A muffled sound.
The secret room began to shake.
Ron's fist landed on the wall, but the imagined scene of the whole wall breaking did not appear. Ron only felt that his fist seemed to hit some kind of semi-fluid, and all the power contained in his fist was removed invisibly.
Then, Ron felt a slight pain between his eyebrows.
With a tap of the toes, the body suddenly moved sideways, leaving its original position.
Just as Ron left that position, bright rays of light, like lasers, swept across from Ron's original position, cutting criss-crossing cracks directly on the originally flat ground.
It is the sight of an angel.
A strange ability like Cyclops.
Just as he dodged the attacks of the angels, Ron raised his left hand and a fireball appeared out of thin air.
This fireball, which looks the size of a washbasin, seems to be just a low-level magic fireball. This can be said to be the most basic spell of a magician, and its destructive power is very... well, stingy.
However, the fireball condensed by Ron was obviously extraordinary. The color of the fireball was not red, but dazzling gold like the sun.
In the golden color, there were also some red stripes like blood.
The slowly dancing flame seemed to have the power to directly burn the soul.
That was another law that Ron mastered when he broke through the level of destruction... killing! The law that takes killing as the ultimate goal.
So far, although he has experienced many battles, Ron has never used the law of killing. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't.
The enhancement of the Law of Killing is only related to one aspect, that is, the lives harvested by the user using the Law of Killing.
The more killing there is, the stronger the law of killing becomes.
At the same time, this is also a kind of power that can easily make the user lose his mind. If one is not careful and immerses himself in killing, he may become an arrogant demon.
However, in the current situation, other powers are not very useful. After all, he is facing eight six-winged angels. Unless he uses his power regardless of everything and destroys everything within a large area, it will be difficult to destroy the eight six-winged angels.
But if this is done, maybe even Arianna will be implicated.
In comparison, the law of killing is more useful in this scenario.
Because killing not only kills the body, but also... the soul.
