Berserk world.

With the princess as an insider, the Eagle Group rescued Griffith from the heavily guarded dungeon with a little difficulty.

The former leader of the Eagle Group, a man so dazzling that it was almost difficult to look directly at him, was now in such a state of disgrace that he was no longer human.

After being tortured in prison for a year, his body was on the verge of collapse.

His tongue was pulled out, he could not speak, and his body was covered with scars.

Due to lack of nutrition, he now looks even thinner and skinnier. Only the outline of a human being can be seen, like a walking skeleton.

No, he can't walk at all! Seeing Griffith's miserable appearance, Guts, who was originally a little wary, only felt sympathy.

He suddenly doubted the truthfulness of Su Luo's words.

Griffith has become like this, like a flickering candle, and could die at any time. Could he still be a threat to everyone? The most important thing is that he secretly searched Griffith's body and couldn't find the Overlord Egg.

Seeing Casca crying like rain, Guts felt very uncomfortable.

This time he offered to stay with Casca.

Even when many members of the Eagle Band expressed their desire to follow him and restore the reputation of the Eagle Band, he did not agree and bluntly stated that he wanted to accompany Griffith.

This made Casca cry again.

She felt that Gus was doing all this for himself.

However, outside the carriage, Guts's face turned ugly when he accidentally saw Griffith trying to press on Casca.

Casca pushed Griffith away in panic, and became even more worried when she saw Guts watching all this.

"That's not what I meant." She jumped out of the carriage and tried to explain.

In Casca's heart, Griffith, who once rescued her from a difficult situation and was the only ray of light in her life, has always held a very special place.

She naturally could not accept the other party's aggressive behavior, but she also understood that Griffith could not do anything now, and she felt more worried and sympathetic.

"I understand." Gus nodded.

He looked through the carriage window at Griffith, who was wrapped in bandages, his head hidden in a helmet, and his expressionless face. The doubts that had been dispelled resurfaced.

He divided the members of the Eagle Group into several small teams and dispersed them, determined to keep a close eye on Griffith.

It was dusk by now, and the sun was hanging slantingly in the sky.

The sky was clear with only a few clouds floating in the air, but there was an inexplicable gloomy atmosphere in the air.

Just as Guts and Casca were discussing what to do next, the carriage suddenly ran wildly as if frightened.

The two were shocked and ran after him immediately.

Seeing this, the other members of the Eagle Group who had already dispersed also followed.

They all knew that the person in the carriage was Griffith, the former leader of the Eagle Group.

Even though the other party has become a disabled person, the friendship of many years still exists. Even some people who want to follow Guts and rebuild the Eagle Group do not want to see him get into trouble.

The carriage was running faster and faster, and suddenly it hit a rock.

The carriage shook violently, causing Griffith inside to fly up and fall heavily into a small river nearby.

The river is very shallow.

One of Griffith's arms was broken instantly.

Looking at the broken arm and then at his own reflection in the water, Griffith laughed silently.

He laughed at the unfairness of fate and at his own overestimation of his own abilities!

He was obviously born a commoner, so why would he bother to get involved with a princess whom even nobles dared not approach easily?

He knew that the king had bad intentions towards his daughter! Suddenly he saw a wooden stake sticking out of the water, with a sharp point on the top, like a blade.

Griffith's eyes flickered as he crawled over and aimed his throat at the spikes above the stake.

He wanted to step into death and end it all! He felt a sharp pain and saw his blood dripping down, mixing with the river water and being washed away.

Guts and Casca chased them to the river.

Seeing this scene, both of them were shocked.

“No!” Casca yelled.

Guts didn't care about anything else, he just raised his legs and rushed over the water towards Griffith.

He didn't want to see his former comrade die in such a humiliating way.

Even though the other party had just plotted against his girlfriend not long ago! But he was already disabled after all, and he couldn't do it at all, right? Griffith didn't commit suicide after all.

Looking at his own figure in the projection, he felt pain and despair! Suddenly, he felt that he had grasped something in his right hand.

He raised his hand and found that it was the pendant that had fallen into the sewer.

Hanging on the pendant was that familiar blood-red thing that looked like a distorted human face.

He picked it up, looked at it silently, and vaguely felt that something was different.

The moment Griffith picked it up, the sky began to change.

The moon's shadow passed across the sky and gradually lay between the sun and the earth.

It seemed as if an invisible wind was blowing across the sky.

Everyone from the Eagle Group who hurried over felt something was wrong, and many even saw some terrifying ghostly shadows.

Gus, who had already slowed down his pace, was shocked.

He recognized what was in Griffith's hand.

Red Behelet.

Overlord's Egg!

How did it appear?!

"Put it down!" Gus yelled, running out.

The sky darkened.

The moon completely blocked out the sunlight.

Solar eclipse!

Guts had already rushed in front of Griffith and saw that the distorted facial features on the Overlord's Egg in his hand instantly changed to form a red human face.

His hand had already pressed down on Griffith's shoulder, and he was almost about to stop it, but an invisible energy suddenly pushed him away.

The sky and the earth completely changed color!

Distorted human faces emerged from the ground, laughing wildly or wailing, filling the entire ground, looking extremely terrifying.

The members of the Eagle Group were completely panicked.

They never expected anything like this to happen.

Especially those dark and ugly monsters started attacking them as soon as they appeared.

Casca wielded her sword against the monsters, shouting Guts' name.

After entrusting her body and soul to the other person, at this critical moment, the first person she thought of was Gus.

However, Guts did not speak, but looked up at the huge arm and the palm above it.

God's Hand! Everything has come true! Thinking of what Su Luo said, Gus climbed up along the huge arm in front of him like crazy.

He must stop this! After he climbed up with all his strength, he saw the four demons standing on the fingers.

Then he saw Griffith on the ground again and heard the conversation between several people.

When the demons tempted Griffith to sacrifice everything and join them, Guts shouted "No".

Griffith looked at him indifferently and said "yes".

Feeling a sharp pain, Gus reached out to touch the back of his neck and found that there was indeed the mark there as Su Luo had described.

This is the symbol of their sacrifices! The screams below made his face turn pale.

He was not afraid, but realized that he was the culprit of all this.

He clearly had a chance to stop this! He only needed to kill Griffith in advance and not let him have the chance he has now!

Seeing Griffith's thin body quickly become plump, Guts was completely panicked.

He remembered something else Su Luo said.

Casca!

No! At the critical moment, he suddenly thought of the pub.

"Yes, if he knows, he can definitely stop this!"
