Chapter 754 The Demon King and the Brave Man
The Demon King was sitting on the throne. When he noticed the person coming, he didn't look at the hero at first, but at La.
"God... God!"
He suddenly grabbed the armrest and leaned forward, and the armor collided with each other and made a loud clanging sound.
"Why are you leaving...why! You promised us a future, why are you running away, why are you running away!!"
The demon king's voice was hoarse and rough, and seemed to have a smell of rust.
Feelings of sorrow and resentment washed over him along with the voice. In the midst of it, Yu Cang felt as if a large, cold hand was gripping his body, causing his hair to stand on end.
At this moment, La's voice rang out in Yu Cang's heart:
"On Origin Star, after a hero kills the Demon King, he will become the next Demon King. The goddess here tells the hero that only the strongest can bear the Demon King's greatest sin. Only when the Demon King bears the sin can the world be stable."
The history of Yuanxing is such a process of continuous reincarnation.
There must be someone to take responsibility for all of the "big sins" of Yuanxing. Otherwise, if the big sins get out of control, the civilization of Yuanxing will fall into riots and war.
The one who bears the greatest sin is naturally the devil.
Even the Demon King cannot endure the mortal sin for a long time... After obtaining the title of "Demon King", his mind will inevitably be eroded by the mortal sin within a few hundred years, and by then, the mortal sin will still be out of control.
At this time, a new hero is needed to come and fight, defeat the Demon King, and... become the Demon King.
La continued, "Because almost every hero has many... well, 'bonds', most of them will volunteer to become the Demon King. Then, the Goddess will promise to maintain the stability of the world."
This is a deal.
The hero is willing to bear great sin and become a demon king, and then the goddess maintains the stability of the world so that the hero's "bond" can survive safely.
It looks... quite unreliable.
After all, heroes are all myths. They possess great power. What can you do if they really cause chaos in the world?
How can a bond be such an inconvenient thing!
In this regard, La can only say...the world rules of Yuanxing are a bit weird.
The heroes here are not in their right minds...some clues can be seen from the Ailezan in front of him.
Perhaps... while those "titles" give the heroes great power, they are also quietly changing their cognition, making them do things that are consistent with the content of the title... which is equivalent to the real "personality shackles."
As a boy next door, you should spare no effort to help your neighbors and maintain community harmony!
Moreover, in the history of Yuanxing, there have indeed been a few heroes who refused the goddess's deal and were unwilling to become the Demon King... But in the end, the serious sins that should be borne by the Demon King will still be concentrated on the hero for various reasons, and he will still become the Demon King.
This may be the fate of the brave.
Yu Cang nodded in understanding.
I see.
The Demon King Caesar in front of him obviously belongs to the "Condemned Clan" among the wild beasts, which means that a single desire dominates.
This desire is resentment towards God.
In his eyes, God had clearly promised the stability of the world, but now, the source star was still destroyed.
Caesar became the Demon King, but God did not give Yuanxing the prosperity he promised, so it resented God's abandonment.
However, this resentment obviously did not cause any fluctuations in La.
Although La behaved quite kindly when he was with Yu Cang and never showed cruelty to the beasts or other intelligent creatures, that was only because he respected Yu Cang.
Because he became Yu Cang's comrade-in-arms, he tried to align his values with Yu Cang's as much as possible to reduce unnecessary conflicts.
In reality, La had lived for tens of thousands of years, and most mortal emotions had been smoothed over by rationality. Kindness had become something that needed to be deliberately maintained in order to exist.
His ability to respect the wishes of the subjects and minimize their pain during experiments is already a commendable persistence.
What's more, the current state of the star realm is like the end of the world. Even if La does not intervene, Yuanxing will not be able to escape the fate of destruction.
Logically speaking, since Ra replaced the god of Yuanxing and made promises to the previous generation of demon king as this god, he must also bear the corresponding responsibilities.
But unfortunately, not to mention how ridiculous this responsibility is in the face of the apocalypse, just talking about the struggle between civilizations, there has never been any room for the word kindness.
For the reasons mentioned above, La did not express any unnecessary emotions about this resentment, nor did he try to perform or make excuses in front of Cang.
Obviously, he believed that even Yu Cang, who could be defined as "kind", would not have any grudge against him because of this matter.
This is exactly the case.
In response to this, Yu Cang just sighed with emotion and said nothing more.
At this moment, Ailezan had already rushed out.
clang!
In the storm, a dazzling sword light burst out from the sword of revenge, and a sword fell from the sky, slashing directly at the devil Caesar!
collapse!
With a loud bang, the sword chopped directly into the throne, cutting the Iron Throne into two halves!
And Caesar's figure had long disappeared.
Bang!
A dull thud of landing sounded not far away. Caesar had already picked up his magic sword and distanced himself.
"Running dog... God's running dog! Wake up!"
Caesar roared ferociously, and the air flow passed through the gaps in his armor, making a loud bang.
Then, the name on top of his head suddenly began to lengthen! -
God-Resenter, Widow Collector, Wife Conqueror... Lord of the World, Sin Collection, Desolation Carrier, Demon King, Caesar
Yu Cang: ...
Well, this person's XP system is even more heavyweight.
Seeing this, Yu Cang couldn't help but sigh.
Fortunately, fortunately he did not travel to this world, fortunately the place he traveled to was the normal Blue Planet.
What's the difference between this way of fighting with title buffs and publicly exposing your browser history and your middle school QQ space posts!
To gain power, can you even abandon your dignity? Hakimo, Hakiyong, you...
Yu Cang shuddered at the thought of himself fighting with titles like "Dragon Cancer" and "Half-Blood Savior".
Actually, these are fine. If even the "Young Hero of Mudu" can be displayed, that would be...
Not bad, not bad.
boom!
While he was thinking, the brave man and the devil were already fighting together.
Their fighting style is to utilize the various abilities brought by the titles. They fight with great momentum, and the two swords constantly collide, creating an energy storm that can even shake the celestial phenomena.
When the battle started, La took Yu Cang and quietly left the scene.
It is normal for the two myths to fight to the death and plow the entire surface of the source star.
Although the magician's shield is very strong, it is better to reduce energy consumption as much as possible at this time.
Judging from the quality of the title, the Demon King is superior to the Hero, so his combat power is undoubtedly higher.
After all, the boy next door can only fight back and forth with the Widow Collector. No matter what, it is difficult for him to defeat the Lord of the World.
But fortunately, the Demon King’s health bar was not full, and he looked in very bad condition.
In addition, the Demon King's actions were influenced by his resentment towards God. He had been trying to bypass Erezan and attack Ra, even if it meant taking damage.
In this situation, there is really no fighting skills to speak of.
Therefore, in the overall battle, Ailezan is still in the upper hand, and it seems that the battle will be over soon.
At this time, La had already taken Yu Cangsheng out of the atmosphere of Yuanxing, and calmly watched the Demon King and the brave man struggling on the surface.
"Hello...do you feel something is wrong?"
Yu Cang spoke hesitantly.
La: "Oh? Where exactly?"
"The Demon King's condition is a little too good."
He can even speak, and even fights back against the hero's trash talk during battle!
The offensive power of his words has not diminished at all.
Logically speaking, the wild beast shouldn't be so clear-headed, right?
And...what the Demon King is using now is also his power as the Demon King.
His title can still be displayed and his health bar can be used.
Logically speaking, after becoming a wild beast, one will basically lose a lot of the original power and express it in the form of a wild beast.
Power will become homogenized, and most of the unique traces of the original civilization will be erased.
"...For the Punishment Clan, it's not uncommon." La said, "Besides, the Demon King is special."
"How do you say that?"
"On Origin Star, the Demon King possesses extremely high resistance to various attacks and can only be killed by heroes. Perhaps... this resistance also took effect when facing Huang."
"Is that so..."
"That's right, and... Origin Star contains methods used to fight against the wilderness in the previous era. I suspect that Origin Star's unique civilization must have been influenced by the civilization of the previous era. Therefore, it's normal for it to show some resistance to the wilderness."
Yu Cang was silent for a moment.
He hadn't seen many of the Qiong tribe, so he didn't know much about this special wild beast.
At this time, La continued to explain: "I have only stayed on the Source Star for a few decades, and there are still many things I haven't figured out. For example, the 'great sin' that the Demon King needs to bear is also a highly contagious force. If there is no Demon King, it can turn the entire planet into the embodiment of sin in a very short time.
"By then, people will unconsciously commit all sorts of crimes, which will manifest in a manner somewhat similar to Huang's infection. Perhaps there's a deeper connection between Yuanxing and Huang, but... alas, the time is still too short, and I still haven't figured it out."
Listening to La's words, Yu Cang's eyes were filled with thoughts.
When you think about it this way, it is indeed abnormal.
But Yu Cang didn't hold out much hope.
Didn’t the civilization of the last era still perish?
That means they failed.
Yu Cang's most important purpose in opening this ruins was to find some clues related to the Emperor Star. As for the rest... a reference would be enough.
While the two were talking.
The battle on the surface has entered a white-hot stage.
The power of the brave man and the demon king collided and raged wildly, making the planet, which was already on the verge of destruction, even more precarious. A large amount of matter was blown away from the source star and flew into the chaos of nothingness.
This final battle accelerated the demise of Yuanxing.
Perhaps after today, this planet will completely disappear...
Each of their attacks was aimed at the vital points, without mercy.
However, even if the big sword cut through their bodies, it would not cause any broken limbs. Nothing would happen after the big sword passed, only the blood bar on the opponent's sword would suddenly drop a lot.
For the brave and the demon king, only when the blood bar is exhausted will they truly reach the end of their lives.
The blood bar is a highly rhythmic form of vitality, so the greatsword transformed from the blood bar is also a manifestation of their life.
At a certain moment, the winner was finally decided.
The Demon King's condition is still too bad, and the disadvantage of an inadequate health bar is fully reflected in this battle.
The brave man swung his sword and pierced the demon king's neck. This time, the demon king, whose health bar was empty, had nothing to resist the damage.
laugh!
The devil's head flew up suddenly under this sword, disappeared into the storm, and disappeared without a trace.
Before he died, he was still roaring and venting his hatred towards God.
Seeing this, La waved his hand and took Yu Cang back to the surface.
"Lord Sun God!" Erezhan panted as he spoke. "I have fulfilled my mission. I have finally... slain the Demon King with my sword! I have exacted my revenge!"
"Very good." La praised. "Now, go get your souvenir."
Elezan nodded vigorously, and then... turned around and came to the body of the Demon King.
The headless corpse of the Demon King still stood with his sword in his hand, and Erezhan stopped in front of it.
After a moment's silence, he raised his sword, and then - stabbed it into the Demon King's magic sword!
Now, the blood bar in the sword is empty. As the brave man thrusts the sword in, the magic sword shatters into powder like a piece of fragile charcoal, and then... all of it falls into the brave man's sword!
Buzz!
Golden light lit up on the sword. At this moment, it absorbed the devil's sword. This sword of revenge completed its mission and transformed into a "holy sword".
At some point.
Bang!
The light spread, and the holy sword appeared.
Judging from the appearance... this "holy sword" seems to be no different from the sword in the hands of the devil before.
It can even be said to be exactly the same.
Seeing this, a look of thought flashed across Yu Cang's eyes.
At this time, La said: "It appeared!"
Um?
Yu Cang suppressed his thoughts, looked forward, and then saw...
The light of the holy sword shone out and landed in front of Erezhan, illuminating the appearance of a small valley in the fierce storm.
Yu Cang blinked.
That is... the Lost Land?
Isn’t this valley right behind the Iron Throne of the Demon King at the beginning?
It's amazing that he didn't notice it at all... Moreover, the fierce battle between the hero and the demon king just now completely avoided this valley, leaving it unscathed!
Just then.
"Lord Sun God... I seem to be a little strange..."
Ai Leizan looked at the palm of his hand, and suddenly felt a shaking in front of his eyes.
"I...why do I feel dizzy..."
Yu Cang looked over.
I saw some signs of withering on the skin of Ailezan's forearm.
Although the manifestations of each race infected by the wild beasts were different, Yu Cang was able to recognize them at a glance based on their aura.
Ai Leizan has been infected by the wildness, and it won’t be long before he completely turns into a wild beast.
This is the horror of the wilderness.
Silent and irresistible, even if you are an invincible myth.
