Chapter 642 The Will of the Gods
The clock stopped, but time did not stand still, but moved in another way.
It can be roughly understood that Rick's gramophone was not smashed, but only replaced with a record.
But whether it was the really smashed speakers or the timing of secretly changing the film, it had no substantial impact on the battle situation inside the fog wall.
The insect man's sword has been shattered, and the wings formed by the convergence of light have also been broken.
Facts have proved that a semi-finished CCD that has just woken up cannot defeat a shadow in full glory, even if the CCD is theoretically above the shadow sequence.
But the real situation is that the pressure brought by the bug people to Milo is even less than that of Imnar the Deceiver.
There may be some special factors here, such as what the Bugman said before - the Scarlet Queen has no intention of becoming an enemy of Milo.
But its sword was broken.
However, the end of this battle was very weird. In the end, the insect man did not die in Milo's hands, although Milo didn't mind it.
What should I say? Usually before the battle ends, the losing side always wants to blabla something, right?
For example, a respectable opponent will usually "do it".
Or, someone with a harsher mouth would say, "Humans cannot kill gods."
And just when Milo put away the crowbar and was about to hear what could be spit out of the insect's mouth, the insect man burst into tears.
Milo didn't know whether the wailing and whimpering sounds were the crying reaction of this race. Anyway, it sounded very similar from a human perspective.
The insect man dragged his broken body and began to climb towards the top of the scarlet mountain range.
It does not seem to have any regrets or unwillingness to this tragic defeat, as if there is something on the top of the scarlet mountain worth its nostalgia.
The kind that I want to take one more look at when I am about to leave.
"Queen..."
"Almighty King, why..."
"Don't you remember me? I am your most faithful servant..."
"Please do not abandon me..."
"What is more terrifying than death is not seeing your blessings Ah..."
"Why do you prefer that human being? He is a shadow that cannot be tamed. Why don't you give me the power to suppress him? Why..."
"We have already given it to him. Two chances.”
"How could you...how could you have forgotten his blasphemy so quickly."
The Bugman's eyes were already blind.
It crawled towards the Scarlet Mountains with its broken body.
Its wailing sound is extremely sad, and its hoarse tone is enough to scare the listeners into goosebumps.
From the beginning of heartbreak and crying, to the subsequent gradual loss of control.
Perhaps it was caused by the blow of the tragic defeat, or perhaps the celestial sounds brought by the blood moon in the sky confused its thoughts. In short, the words spoken by the insect population gradually became "unbridled".
It actually questioned its master in a hoarse voice.
"I gave everything for you, everything..."
"But why does the Eucharist order only favor this sinful creature from another world? What is so unique about him that makes you ...Making you willing to abandon your own people!"
"Why!"
…
The series of humble and sorrowful outpourings in front did not attract the favor of the so-called queen at all.
On the contrary, when the bug-men began to collapse and ask questions, some strange and strange sounds that were difficult to catch rippled in the huge mountains in front of them.
The scene that happened immediately made Milo speechless.
Because the many patrol butterflies that were still hovering over the battlefield at the junction line all rushed towards the center of the storm as if they were crazy after hearing the strange noise from the mountains.
Even if the terrifying storm tears their wings apart, they will rush towards this place without hesitation.
And their target is not Milo.
It is the seriously injured and dying insect man.
…
Its humble loyalty ultimately resulted in its body being shattered into pieces.
In front of Milo, the patrolling butterflies dragged the insect man into the air, tore its body and soul into pieces, and swallowed them into their stomachs.
That scene made people feel physically and psychologically uncomfortable.
This may be understood as the Scarlet Queen conveying some kind of will to Milo, or just to enforce her majesty.
However, Milo will not empathize with the insect-people anyway.
In his opinion, this is the end of surrendering before the gods.
…
“You won’t accept this way of expressing sincerity, right?” The Scarlet Witch’s voice came from behind Milo.
She is the only person in the entire Scarlet Sect who understands Milo.
"After choosing you, I also doubted this decision."
"What does it mean by two chances?" Milo knew why the Scarlet Witch chose him, but he There is no time to reminisce about the past at this juncture.
"You have already failed once. Scarlet is your only choice. Do you really want to reject Scarlet again?" Scarlet Witch asked Milo word by word.
At this moment, the light of the blood moon has completely enveloped the entire world.
Whether it is the Scarlet Mountains or Nanwei City on the night side, they are all stained by the color of the blood moon.
What failed once?
Milo knew that Daisy, Blood Saint and C had all revealed some fragmentary information to him before.
But he always believed in himself more. For things that had not happened, no matter how many details others listed, it would be in vain.
Unless Milo himself is crazy.
A key factor that shook his belief was essentially the same as being crazy, and that was the forgetfulness of his real name. The information provided by the Blood Saint at the cost of her life made Milo have self-doubt.
Since I have forgotten my real name, other things can also be forgotten...
…
“Let’s forget it if you don’t say it.”
Milo saw the blood moon very close at hand, which was the terrifying body of Gherroth.
With the defeat of the Scarlet Insect Man, the situation on the battlefield has changed from the initial battle between his believers against the scarlet creatures to the melee of the old days. Many ancient creatures that he could identify and had never heard of appeared in the corner of the battlefield. , driven by the celestial voice, they all fell into varying degrees of madness.
As a result, the Chaos Visionaries, that is, the law enforcement officers and Silver Dusk members, are no longer qualified to be a party to the war, and cannot even protect themselves.
Unlike the fire that occurred in the city not long ago, this time Milo actually heard many voices of prayer, and these voices were decreasing rapidly.
"The blood moon will destroy everything. Your talent could have saved any race, or even the entire world."
"But all the disasters came too fast after all. The speed of your growth Can't keep up at all."
"Your followers are dying. The race abandoned by the gods cannot be redeemed, and as their god, there is nothing you can do."
The Scarlet Witch. The sound passed through the battlefield and lingered in Milo's ears.
Milo had already broken into the battlefield at this time.
Because he saw Rebecca covered in blood and Marshall who was dying.
…
Maybe the Scarlet Witch is right.
There is no time to start the era of great fear.
Miloben has the potential to fight against the order and rescue any race, but that is only potential after all. The arrival of the blood moon has once again focused the attention of the gods on this world.
In this era, the Scarlet Witch is still persuading Milo, hoping that he can convert to Scarlet.
It is true that with the world on the verge of overturning, this handful of surviving humans on the battlefield are the epitome of the entire civilization.
There is no time for Milo to grow and develop and preach.
But even if there really was a tragic failure, in that failure, Milo lost everything, making him forget his face and real name.
Even so, he still firmly believed that he, who had never forgotten his real name, had a good reason for choosing to reject Scarlet.
Then he will make the same choice again.
So no matter how much the Scarlet Witch said, Milo would not be swayed.
“You don’t know what you are going to face!”
“Blood Moon! Old Ones!”
"And the gods of dreams!"
"No one has ever been able to defend a civilization! Even Shadow can't do it! Do you think that no existence more powerful and special than you has tried in such a long time! "
"The order and shackles of the gods cannot be broken. Compared with them, Shadow is so weak."
"Scarlet is your last choice!"
< br>“…”
…
Milo didn’t hear clearly what the Scarlet Witch roared later, and he didn’t bother to listen.
Because the situation on the battlefield is completely beyond his control.
“You’re here, we have to run away quickly, you know! Look, I’ve collected your little girl and pets and everything else, and I’ll just pack them up and take them away. You’re the only one missing. , you have the final say where to run."
As soon as Milo appeared, Yan grabbed his shoulders and shook him wildly, and the three-petal fire eyes on his eyebrows spurted lava and the like. It reached some strange coordination with the frequency of spitting from his mouth.
It can be seen that persisting on the battlefield of the old rulers for so long has forced Yan to exert several times the courage to block the door on the hunting night a few years ago, and this courage seems to be seriously insufficient.
This cannot be summed up simply by fear or cowardice.
Milo personally believes that Yan, a weirdo, must have one more special bar than ordinary people. That thing is not affected by fear. The specific influencing conditions are unknown. Once it is full, It will trigger an effect called running away, which is the kind that cannot be stopped even by the bewitchment of the superior.
Milo pushed away the dancing night devil in front of him and took a serious look at his little girl. Oh no, he took a serious look at Rebecca's condition.
“Okay?”
The woman was carrying the dying little black cat. The muzzles of the two revolvers in her hands were emitting hot smoke, and the triggers and hammers were burning red.
The face is covered with blood, but there is no sense of decadence at all. The mountains behind her, the blood moon in the sky, and even the sticky plasma, all the red colors at this moment seem to be inferior to the beauty of her short red hair. .
Hearing the inquiry, she gasped and nodded heavily to Milo.
"I have no problem."
"Fart——why is it no problem?" Yan Yi behind him suddenly became anxious when he heard Rebecca's response.
...
However, before he could say the second half of his sentence, some dazzling light pillars appeared without warning in the other two-thirds of the night sky that was not occupied by the blood moon, penetrating the world barrier.
The dense light pillars exude an ancient and holy atmosphere, mixed with many familiar flavors of Milo.
They are the will from the dreamland.
……
As mentioned before, the passage to the Dreamland has been completely blocked.
It seems that something happened that changed the gods' plan to let the world fend for itself.
This is probably the most hilarious scene ever.
For the first time, it can be seen that the number of superiors overwhelms the inferiors.
Those present are either the old days in a state of madness and confusion, or the will of the gods hanging high in the sky.
The only humans left are the law enforcement officers and members of Silver Dusk Lodge in Milo's camp.
