Ash and the others stared at this scene in a daze, unable to react for a moment.
Rose... is a source angel?
Although it is not strange to say who is the source angel, after all, the source angel will possess anyone in the Star Kingdom, but how can Rose be the source angel!? She is clearly, clearly...
At this moment, Ash recalled the speculation about the Source Angel in Hiss's notes -
"Because it is not human, its worldview is definitely different from that of ordinary people, and it cannot integrate into society."
"Because it cannot fit into society, it must be antisocial and appear cold and heartless."
"Because in order to survive, it will most likely commit murder."
Because she is not human, the three views of the Source Angel at birth are indeed different from those of ordinary people, but she is not unable to integrate into the society. As an intelligent Source Angel, she will definitely try to learn how to "be a human being", such as following the guidance of textbooks and doing whatever the textbooks say!
Although she can integrate into society, she is still antisocial at heart. She acts cold-blooded and ruthless. She will do anything to achieve her goals, even if it means doing dirty work for her employer!
And the longer she lives, the more people around her get used to her way of thinking, and eventually they take it for granted and are no longer surprised!
Looking back now, Rose was full of flaws. She was too serious about things that shouldn't be serious, and too careless about things that should be cared about. But Ash really couldn't associate her with the Source Angels. After all, they themselves were not that normal. If they were to compete in weirdness, Rose wouldn't get first place.
More importantly, Rose was the first person Ash met when he arrived in the Kingdom of Stars.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Rose provided him with a beginner's guide; he knew nothing, and Rose provided him with attentive service; even Harvey and Igulla were found by her help.
When Ash and the others were discussing the Source Angel, she did not avoid her. She never hindered Ash and the others' actions and fulfilled her responsibilities as an assistant perfectly... She was the first friend Ash met among the stars... How could she be a Source Angel?
From the beginning, the answer that Ash was looking for appeared before his eyes. But this was too dramatic, why was Rose by Heath's side? The Source Angel could descend upon anyone, appear anywhere, and do anything, so why was it him——
He suddenly recalled what Rose had said to him: "You are special."
Yes, Ash Heath is special because he is the Four Pillars of God Touch.
He is the bait and Rose is the fish.
The Four Pillar Gods, who had been doing nothing, had already completed the final arrangement at the very beginning. In this angel hunt, the Lord God, the Four Pillar Gods, and even the Source Angel himself, all high-ranking beings were playing the game. They were just pawns caught up in fate.
"marvelous."
Vichy stood up slowly. She stared at the Holy Grail on Rose's chest, her eyes showing blazing desire and joy. She tightly grasped Ash's arm and said happily, "We won!"
Ash looked at her. Vichy could no longer suppress her excitement. She jumped up and down holding Ash's hand. "That's the Holy Grail coveted by the gods! The ultimate legacy of the Source Angels! If you drink it, you can hold the supreme scepter and ascend the empty throne of heaven! Hahahaha, those gods calculated and planned for thousands of years, but in the end, we got the advantage! I'm dying of laughter!"
The Ghost Prophet laughed so hard that she was out of breath. She turned around and saw that Ash still had no reaction, so she sighed and said, "I know, I know. You will definitely not let me drink even a drop. But it doesn't matter. Even if you become the Supreme, I like this kind of plot where the weak take away the spoils of the strong. Nothing makes my heart beat faster than taking away someone's love."
"It just so happens that you, Ash, also have a spiritual paradise. As long as you drink this holy grail, your path to demigod, Lord God, and Supreme will be smooth without any bottlenecks! You will become the Supreme of magic that is above all others, and even the arrogant Lord God will have to submit to you!"
"From now on, from the ocean of knowledge to the six heavens, from the virtual world to the real world, all are under your control! Your will is the fate of all beings; your preference is the faith of all things!"
"Aren't you still worried that you can't handle the feelings of Sword Princess and Witch? By then, let alone the two of them, as long as it's someone you like, the other party must like you unconditionally and accommodate you, because making you happy is the greatest meaning of their existence!"
"Do you have someone you want to resurrect? To the Supreme of Magic, it is a trivial matter. Hell will open its gates for you. Resurrection is just a piece of cake. Even reversing time is not impossible!"
"And there's the Kingdom of Stars! Don't you want to save the stars? Now you finally have the power to protect it!"
"so……"
Wei Xi gradually stopped smiling, "You don't want to save the source angel again, do you?"
Fili and Nia looked at Ash without saying anything.
The source angel is not only related to the distribution of the Supreme Scepter, but also to the survival of the stars. If someone else drinks the Supreme Holy Grail, the stars will definitely not be saved, but if it is Ash...
"Fifth Virtual Wing, Sixth Virtual Wing." Ash said softly: "Even if I completely condense the Seventh Virtual Wing, it is impossible to jump to the highest level all at once. By the time I can make a comeback, everything will be too late."
"Hello!"
Wei Xi stopped him and said seriously, "You should know that there is no benefit in my persuading you. You will never let me go even if you become the Supreme. I am just a magician and I don't want you to miss this opportunity to ascend to heaven overnight."
"Iguerra, Xavi, aren't you his friends? Come on, say something."
"I've said this before," Igulla said calmly, "He never listened to me."
Harvey said, "Vish, your persuasion just now actually didn't have much effect on Ash."
Wei Xi couldn't understand: "Aren't they just women? Do you want me to catch a few identical ones for you in the future? At the very least, can I transform into their appearance and give you a 100% restored experience? Compared to the Supreme Scepter, these are nothing."
Ash shook his head and pushed her away, smiling, "Thank you, I never thought that there would be a time when you would truly care about me. As long as I don't die, I will see a miracle."
"I don't want to hear thank you!" Wei Xi sighed to the sky, "Can't you just be a good boy and promise me, Master?"
“I didn’t refuse.”
Ash looked at the Holy Grail emerging from Rose's chest, stretched out his hand to touch it, but passed through the phantom of the Holy Grail. It seemed that unless Rose was killed directly, it would be impossible to stop the Holy Grail from emerging.
He half squatted down and stared at Rose: "Rose, tell me, do you want to live?"
Vichy said quickly, "Yes, Rose doesn't care about anything and doesn't interfere with our participation in the Angel Hunt. She may have been tired of living and has been looking forward to who can receive her inheritance. Compared to letting those gods who imprisoned her, she obviously would rather you, Ash, obtain the Supreme Holy Grail!"
Ash ignored Vichy, but his flickering eyes showed that he had not made up his mind. If Rose did not care about her life or death, and did not care about the ownership of the Supreme Holy Grail, then Ash did not need to save her. Although it was unlikely that he would become the Supreme in one step, after drinking the Holy Grail, Ash would at least be able to increase his strength. When the time came, he could negotiate with the Master of the Stars and maybe even save the stars.
If Rose were to escape, everyone would be able to survive, but helping her escape might be more difficult and dangerous than drinking from the Holy Grail.
There is no absolutely good or bad choice here, so Ash needs Rose to decide what is the best choice at this moment.
Rose stared into the sky with empty eyes, her face as pale as paper without any expression, and even her lips did not move. The combined spell of the five gods was enough to imprison all her body functions.
Vichy heaved a sigh of relief. Since Rose couldn't respond, she could just assume that she didn't want to live. In fact, she also felt that she was quite strange. It was Ash who had the highest achievement, so why was she so excited?
At this moment, Vichy saw Rose's hand move, and she held Ash's finger very reluctantly. She was like a newborn baby, who knew nothing and could do nothing. She could only follow her instinct to hold an adult's finger to convey her simple thoughts.
I want you to show me the world.
"Vichy," Ash stood up: "The Source Angel is in our hands, is there any solution now?"
Vichy folded his arms and turned his head away.
"Dear Vichy——"
"I was thinking!" Wei Xi said unhappily, "In theory, even if we use the secret world, they can't keep it sealed forever. The secret world also has consumption. And even if they are the five most powerful magicians of all time, their hasty cooperation is definitely not perfect, not to mention that they have their own ulterior motives... As long as we can drag it out, maybe we can wait for a turning point, and it is not impossible for the sky to collapse naturally!"
"Igula, go to the cockpit and take over the Canaan!"
Ash immediately said, "Let all passengers get off at the next stop, and then we'll stay on the train and keep running. It'll take a long time for the demons to get here, and their speed may not be as fast as the high-speed train. Maybe we can avoid a fight and get through the last angel hunt safely!"
"Our journey has not yet come to an end!"
Boom!
It was the familiar soul shock again. Because it was the second time in a short period of time, everyone reacted instantly - hell had descended again!
They turned their heads and saw, as expected, hell falling in the distance. Every time hell is summoned, a legend must be sacrificed. What are the demons doing? What do the gods want to do?
However, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations - countless blood flies gushed out of the first level of hell, corroding the four levels of hell above!
The second level of hell instantly expanded into a thick spider web, almost completely sealing off the other four levels of hell!
Countless pitch-black pythons emerged from the third level of hell, climbing up and down and entangled in hell!
A large amount of paint overflowed from the fourth level of hell, and almost all miracles were inevitably smeared. The miracles that changed color seemed to have self-awareness and no longer attacked the fourth level of hell, and even helped the fourth level of hell to attack other directions.
The miracles that appeared in the first four levels of hell were all hurting and conquering each other!
Although the fifth level of hell did not attack other hells, it directly unfolded a giant star-shaped net, covering all the stars from top to bottom!
The moment the star net passed over everyone, it also brought out their virtual wings, and then mysterious chains fell, crushing the virtual wings of Ash, Igula, Harvey, and Vichy!
"Hmm!" Ash groaned as he fell to his knees due to the intense pain in his soul. "What on earth... is going on..."
"Ash!?" Fili quickly helped him up: "How could you - I'm clearly still connected to you!"
Fili's demonization has never been lifted, and the demon wings on her back are still intact. Logically, after Ash and Fili are connected, Ash will not be targeted by the mysterious chain, but now his virtual wings are still shredded.
"Because the only ones who are immune to the mysterious chains are demons." Weishi took a breath and accepted Nia's help. "The magicians are just protected by the demons, just like phantoms hiding in the shadows... The star network just now is equivalent to a global illumination, which makes all phantoms nowhere to hide and breaks the virtual wings of all magicians!"
"This is just a small matter." Wei Xi turned his head and looked outside, "Why did the Lord God use Hell to fight each other this time...?"
But soon, everyone saw the reason, or rather, the result, of the gods' conquests against each other.
I saw a river of blood flowing from the first level of hell; a spider web was woven from the second level of hell; a tunnel extended from the third level of hell; and a cloud flew out from the fourth level of hell.
Ash and his companions could only watch as rivers of blood flowed over, spider webs were woven over, tunnels were dug over, and clouds flew over! The distance advantage of being separated by half the country was wiped out in just a few seconds!
No wonder they want to fight each other. On the one hand, they want to attack other gods to launch their own miracles of movement, and on the other hand, they want to take the opportunity to destroy the miracles of movement of other gods!
"The blood moon rises, and night falls."
From the churning river of blood emerged the little boy Ye Jian and the coffin-carrying girl Tiramisu.
"Inside the spider's web, the sound knows the destiny."
Yinzhi, a girl with long pink and purple hair, and Amiluo, a big white-haired man, were caught in the spider web.
"Good and evil, regardless of their differences, will all enter the Dragon Abyss."
The stern Long Yuan and his follower, the young magician, crawled out of the tunnel.
"Imagining reincarnation, sorrow, good, joy, and bad."
On the cloud, the orange-haired young man jumped down happily holding the cursed elf sorceress.
The demons spread their wings and landed on the roof of the high-speed train. After looking at each other, they spread their hands in joy and said, "The Holy Grail has not yet condensed. We are here too early."
"During this time, I can..." Long Yuan hooked his finger at them, "Teach you guys a lesson."
"I don't mind exercising before meals." Yin Zhi smiled, "But it would be bad if someone cheated on me, right... Miss Devil down there?"
In the carriage, Ash subconsciously grabbed Fili's hand. Fili's magical aura was too obvious, and she couldn't hide it at all. Yin knew that they couldn't let Fili take advantage of them. If Fili refused to come out, she would be the first enemy to be besieged.
Fili shook her head: "You have proved that I like the right person. Now it's my turn."
"In the process of saving the world, the hero falls in love with the heroine's bravery. This is the script I wrote for you." Fili smiled and said, "Then they have to see the sunshine and take a walk on the street. Don't forget!"
Fili spread her wings and flew out from the ceiling, and faced four demons for the first time on the high-speed train at a speed of 350 kilometers per hour. When the demons saw Fili's face, some understood, while others were confused.
Long Yuan suddenly kicked open the ceiling and let the young magician behind him go down.
"People are not allowed to steal food, so are we going to let wingless mice steal it?" Yin Zhiyouyou said, "You really make the best use of it... Amilo."
"I'll present you with the Source Angel's container later." Amilo also smashed the ceiling and jumped down.
"Eurielie, just stop them." Le Huai said casually. The curse elf sorceress nodded and kicked the window open and entered the car.
"Tiramisu, I want to see death." The little boy Ye Jian said crisply.
The coffin-carrying girl nodded slightly: "As you wish."
In the carriage, Ash, Igula, Harvey, Nia, and Vichy looked at the enemies that appeared at the entrance of the passage. They stepped back and took the initiative to make way for the uninvited guests to reach Rose. "Please."
But the four Tiramisu people did not look at Rose, but instead kept aloofly on guard against Ash and the others. They did not fight among themselves, nor did they approach Rose. Instead, they approached Ash and the others step by step in tacit understanding, and quietly reached an offensive and defensive alliance.
"Correct attitude." Ash pulled out two swords from his sleeves and shrugged: "Legendary magicians are really hard to fool."
"Since there is no way to save trouble, we can only..."
Ash calmed down, raised his sword and walked towards the four of them, saying word by word:
"Kill the legend first."
