Inside Takamagahara.
Merlin, struggling in the endless whispers, turned his head to look in the direction of the Gate of Guidance. The trajectory of fate intertwined in his pupils, and he saw clearly everything that happened at the door.
When Merlin saw the two figures leaving Takama-ga-hara, his heart finally settled down. At the same time, he turned around to look at Susanoo with empty hands, and his eyes burst into terrifying anger!
"Are you looking for death?!"
He suddenly raised the magic wand in his hand, and two magic circles covering the sky and the sun instantly opened up under the blood-red sky, overlapping each other and slowly rotating in opposite directions.
Merlin lightly scratched his palm with his thumb, and a cut mark appeared on his palm. Blood flowed out, but it did not fall to the ground due to gravity. Instead, it was pulled back into the sky by some mysterious force!
The blood merged into two counter-rotating magic circles. A dazzling light shone from every line, like a shining sun hanging high in the sky.
Strands of hair fell from Merlin's head. He pressed the brim of his hood with his right hand, murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and pointed his bloody left hand at Susanoo from a distance.
"【Extinction Sword Curse】."
Sizzle——!!
A blood-red holy sword condensed from between two opposing magic circles. The aura of destruction swept over the tip of the sword, passing through the space in an instant and smashing into the earth like thunder!
Sensing the terrifying power of this forbidden spell, Susanoo, with bloodshot eyes, instinctively wanted to avoid the attack.
His figure rushed rapidly across the earth, and the surging sea of blood in the distance surged again. A large amount of sea water gathered into a huge red wave that touched the sky and hit the crimson holy sword directly.
boom--!!
The crimson holy sword split the bloody waves and instantly pierced the earth. A terrifying crimson beam of light rushed into the sky, and the aura of the forbidden spell that could destroy the world instantly covered the entire Takama-ga-hara.
Drops of blood dripped from Merlin's palms. He was wearing a magic robe, standing in the air under the double moons, looking down at the ruins beneath his feet.
On the surface of the second red moon in the sky, blood began to roll like waves.
Merlin's body trembled as he was about to take action, and his brows were tightly furrowed. While resisting the whispering pollution in his mind, he set his eyes on the second red moon.
“Because you worshipped the power of the red moon, after your death you imitated your own divine power and soul into a red moon, hanging it in the sky above the kingdom of God… You are the executioner who destroyed your own pantheon with your own hands, how come you have a change of heart now and want to protect your brother?” Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly.
His eyes swept across the center of the ruins, where the wounded Susanoo was slowly climbing up from the broken ground.
His right arm had disappeared, leaving only a hideous sword-marked bloody hole hanging on his shoulder. His red eyes stared at the red moon in the sky with obsession, his face full of crazy admiration.
Merlin seemed to understand something and sneered, "After completely corrupting his mind, you turned him into a fanatic who can be used... What a good brother, huh?"
As the moonlight of the two red moons gradually grew stronger, the red in Merlin's eyes became more and more intense. He frowned, stared at the seriously injured Susanoo in the ruins for a moment, and sighed helplessly.
He raised his head, took one last look at the two red moons, and muttered to himself:
"I will definitely find the secret of your existence..."
Merlin lightly raised the magic wand in his hand, and his figure turned into a rainbow light, rapidly passing through the sky, passing through the Gate of Guidance, and disappeared without a trace.
…
The fog is chaotic and the waves are roaring.
Merlin's figure flew out from the gap of the Gate of Guidance and landed on the turbulent sea.
He turned around and looked back. The guiding gate to Takama-ga-hara had closed and was slowly disappearing, as if it had never appeared.
When the door completely disappeared, Merlin finally relaxed. His body shook, and a large mouthful of blood gushed out of his throat and fell into the sea below.
His face was as pale as paper.
The pollution from the two red moons, coupled with the continuous use of super-large-scale forbidden spells, has seriously overdrawn his spirit and divine power. If he continues to stay in Takama-ga-hara, not only will he fail to kill Susanoo, but his consciousness will probably also collapse.
For him who had just walked out of the hospital, this was already the limit.
Merlin glanced around, but did not see Lin Qiye and Jia Lan. The trajectory of fate intertwined in his eyes. After he briefly foresaw the future, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that all those backup plans I left behind can be used... cough cough cough."
Merlin bent down and coughed violently. He stayed on the sea for a long time like a stone sculpture, then took a deep breath and staggered away.
He had only taken two steps when he stopped.
A breeze blew across the rolling sea, and Merlin stared at the chaotic fog in front of him, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Behind the fog, a figure was seen walking slowly on the sea… It was a Taoist with his hair tied up and a hairpin, and his coarse Taoist robe swaying slightly in the wind. His eyes were as bright as two eyes, and he was looking at him with a smile.
Merlin was stunned for a long while, and the corners of his pale mouth couldn't help but rise...
"It seems that my guess was correct." Merlin's eyes moved away from the Taoist and looked towards the nothingness above his head, muttering to himself,
"You...are all here as expected."
…
Near the Sea of Japan.
Amid the turbulent waves, a huge cruise ship broke through the chaotic fog and moved forward slowly. Bright yellow lights dotted the dark night sky like stars on the sea.
Judging from its appearance, this is a modern Western-style cruise ship, about two hundred meters long and at least fifty meters high. Its heavy and huge body is like a small mountain, moving slowly on the sea.
If you look closely, you will find that the surface of this cruise ship is composed of a large number of tiny particles, like a dream ship sailing out of the pixel world. On the side of the hull of the cruise ship, two large characters are carved with black and sharp strokes:
——Shangxie.
On the top floor of this pixel cruise ship, a huge indoor swimming pool reflects the lights, and the water in the pool sways slightly with the cruise ship.
By the swimming pool, a young girl in a swimsuit was lazily sitting on a white rocking chair, her black hair falling like a waterfall. She looked at the misty fog outside the floor-to-ceiling window and yawned.
Just then, a man in a suit came over.
"President."
The girl lying in the rocking chair raised her eyebrows, "What's going on? Are we going to Japan?"
"We are indeed at the place marked by 'paratrooper', but there is one more thing." The man paused, "Just now, two people appeared on our deck... out of nowhere."
"Appearing out of thin air?" Ji Nian was stunned.
“We don’t know exactly how they appeared. Anyway, when we turned around… they were lying there.”
"Lying? Dead?"
"That's... hard to say." The man looked a little strange. "Their situation is very special, so I would like you to go and see it in person."
