Chapter 844 King of the Earth
Hearing this, the fox looked at the old dog with a little more respect.
"What a surprise..."
Aleister sighed, "Since I came to Xingtan, the most generous person I've met is actually a jester."
"hehe……"
The old dog Lalo just smiled carefreely: "I am only a jester when there is a king who trusts me. Otherwise, I am just a clown who likes to say crazy things... a pathetic madman. Clowns are not loved by anyone, and no one can love them."
As they were talking, there was a noise coming from the front.
Aleister took a few steps forward and jumped back onto the white horse.
"You're back."
Bai Ma said in a deep voice: "Let us fight side by side again, comrade."
Its tone became firm again, without the previous hesitation and entanglement, and it was obvious that it had figured out the previous problem.
"Are you strong again now, Your Highness?"
Aleister teased.
"Because it has come to this, there is no room for us to retreat."
The white horse's voice was as clear as a young boy's: "If I take a step back, I will be crushed to pieces. For the survival of my race - help me one more time, okay? My wisdom..."
"Well, brave white horse."
Aleister sighed and looked at the heavily armored carnivore army in front of him: "I never thought that I would have to fight such animals..."
Compared to the ragtag army of small animals behind them, the army of armored brown bears, wolves, hyenas, and eagles is terrifying just by looking at them from a distance.
And what are those things behind her?
Little rabbit, little deer, little lamb, little kangaroo, little cat, little dog...
——How can we fight this?
Unless he could just release a Sky Thunder and let the little animals drive the Gundam, Aleister couldn't imagine any chance of winning.
Although many of these small animals are carnivorous... such as foxes, cats and dogs, these are obviously not animals that can survive by eating grass.
...Does that mean I have to do it? It's not that I can't, but I just don't think this is the correct way to clear the game...
Aleister thought so and released the Night Demon. The crow flapped its wings and followed them.
And from another perspective that they cannot see.
Aiwass, in his spirit form, breathed a sigh of relief.
He had just talked to the white horse for a long time and finally calmed it down.
He looked back at Aleister who had transformed into a fox and couldn't help but touch her. However, Aiwass's hand just passed through Aleister's body, and she didn't feel Aiwass's presence at all.
"Is she your friend?"
The old wizard, leaning on his staff, walked slowly towards him from a distance. "She doesn't look very smart. She hasn't understood her situation yet."
He had just finished talking with Golden Lion.
After that, he immediately rushed over to see what Aiwass was doing.
The white horse on the side looked back at the old wizard, who shook his head slightly to signal him not to speak.
"I wish you victory, Your Highness."
Aiwass ignored the old wizard and said gently to the white horse: "I will pray for you and wish you a triumphant return."
Bai Ma nodded and replied briefly, "We will win."
But Aleister, who was on the white horse, only heard the sound of the white horse.
She immediately looked miserable: "You..."
Why are there still people setting up flags on the battlefield?
Immediately afterwards, the white horse took two quick steps.
Its speed became faster and faster, and then it suddenly opened a pair of pure white wings and leaped high into the sky!
“Thunder!”
The clear sound of a white horse rang out in the air, and many hawks swooped down.
But its prayers have already resounded through the sky: "Crush my enemies—"
The next moment, violent lightning fell from the sky.
Dense, spider-web-like thunderclouds descended from the dark sky, leaping and baptizing the beasts.
One after another, the beasts were knocked down with howls.
Aleister crouched down, clung to the white horse's back, and widened his eyes in shock.
——You really turned into a Gundam!
No, Arthur has this trick?
And the huge red bear roared and pounced from the other side—
When it landed, the whole earth was shaking!
The earth cracked and countless fissures opened up in an instant, and the small animals fell into them.
Immediately afterwards, one after another, the small animals spread their pure white wings like angels and barely flew out of the crack.
But from the cracks in the ground, sharp rock spikes suddenly shot out, killing and injuring them in large numbers!
The ground shook violently, constantly deforming at a high frequency. It wasn't just an earthquake—the entire surface seemed to fluctuate at a high frequency, like the spectrum of a music player. Small animals were constantly thrown into the air, only to be knocked back again by newly protruding rock spikes as they fell.
—Huh? The Supreme God has this trick? No, Arthur shouldn't have faced the Supreme God first. What about the Giant King and the "Broken Branch"?
As someone who had personally experienced the Battle of Heaven Punishment, Aleister felt lost for a moment.
But if I say that this was the time when Hengwo seduced the Beast Master, it doesn’t seem right... Hengwo didn’t fight with the Beast Master.
But fortunately, Aleister has a deep understanding of mysterious knowledge.
There seems to be only one event that meets all these conditions...
That was the story the Lord of Scales and Feathers told Aleister.
"Nibiru, the sky-eating beast..."
Aleister murmured softly.
That was Yi Tiansi's most glorious achievement when he was still a mortal.
"...In those days, there was a giant beast on earth, as big as the sky, that specifically ate those with wings."
The voice of the Lord of Scales and Feathers rang in Aleister's ears:
It eats powerful beasts and becomes even more powerful; it eats wise beasts and becomes even more wise. It devours the long-lived demonic tree and eats tens of millions of scaly creatures, thus gaining a hard shell and solid bones.
It considers itself the "King of the Earth," its only flaw being its lack of wings. Therefore, it is bound to the earth and cannot dominate the sky.
So it ate a large number of winged creatures in order to grow wings. Its body grew larger and larger, but it never grew wings.
Aleister suddenly turned around and looked at the little animals behind him that had grown angel wings.
That is...
"——The Winged One?"
Aleister opened his eyes wide and murmured.
"…What is she thinking?"
The old wizard in his spirit state commented, "Shouldn't this be the incident when the elves rebelled against the Beast Master? The largest human kingdom, Herasil, was born because of this.
"I remember it was called... the 'War of Warcraft'. It was a battle between those races not created by the Beast Master and hundreds of other beasts. That white horse must be Hengwo, and horses are also connected to the sun and the moon. According to the outcome of that war, it was humanity that ultimately prospered... So, the 'Lion' that symbolizes the beginnings of the Herasil Empire."
"That may not be the case."
Aiwass just closed his eyes slightly: "This scene also has another interpretation..."
Aleister was still trying to recall the words of the Lord of Scales and Feathers:
"—In the end, Yi Tiansi, still a mortal, was on the verge of death when he slew the behemoth. Back then, he lacked the immense power he would later possess, nor did he possess such supreme abilities. So, he relied on traps, schemes, poisons, and curses to complete his 'hunt'..."
That was an act of transcendence in which the weak defeated the strong.
Why are there no "humans" in this world?
That’s right, it’s because humans haven’t been born yet—
This was a time when the Lord of Scales and Feathers did not yet exist, when the Supreme Heaven and the Great Sage were still mortals, when the Hunter King still existed, and when the King of the Earth preyed on all creatures on earth with impunity...
——This is indeed the Battle of Heaven Punishment.
But this is the first chapter of the "Battle of Heaven Punishment"!
Looking at the white horse with its wings spread wide in the sky, attracting lightning, Aleister seemed to see a brave warrior with pure white wings behind him. And the crimson giant bear opposite it looked so ferocious and terrifying...
That is the story of the pure white horse, representing an oppressed race, leading the people to defeat the giant bear!
Then, who that golden lion is...it goes without saying.
A lion being torn apart from within by a mole.
The metaphor may be the hunting king whose scales and feathers were "stolen" by the Lord of Scales and Feathers!
"——So, this is also a kind of fateful cycle?"
And if the conditions of this story are met...
Aleister suddenly understood what he had to do.
"Vignes, curse that giant bear!"
