Blood tax

Chapter 421 Commander, your mission is to destroy the savior ([-])

What first came to Griffith's ears was a rumbling roar, a deep, hoarse, loud and piercing whistle.They seem to be deeply embedded in the ancient horror memory of human beings, and will never be forgotten.

Human vocal cords would never produce such an abnormal and distorted sound.

Griffith saw the vision in the dark. He was on the dark ocean, and his remaining rationality was like an isolated island.What echoed in his ears was the howling of the boundless and desolate vast world, awakening the fear rooted in his life - he couldn't find his way home, and the horrible creatures hidden in the darkness were watching him.

The dark and unknown power surges up huge waves from time to time, and it is impossible to know when it will engulf itself.

Griffith almost fell to his knees trembling.His consciousness and fear were imprisoned in this incomprehensible tone, and after a while, he had a vague feeling that this strange sound irrefutably formed words with certain meanings.

"The end...the savior...?"

Griffith felt that his physical strength was recovering, and he gradually regained his tenacity.He raised his head and examined the creatures in front of him with great courage:
"Who are you? What kind of existence? What did you call me just now?"

While saying this, he suddenly felt less afraid.There was something familiar about the creature, despite her bulk and monstrosity.If you don't think about her underwater part, it's quite eye-catching.

"My name in this world is Pilotis, well, I like this name, so you can call me that too," said the silver-haired woman, "As for my essence, you must have seen my buried deep underground. Fleeing kind. I smell her on you, just a little bit.

"We are the Shoggoths, the Old Ones from the stars who created our race as slaves and guardians.

"Lieutenant, this is your past title. We reached an agreement a long time ago. After each wakes up, I will help you complete the plan."

Griffith wasn't sure if he had gone mad because his sanity had evaporated or something else, but the creature's speech was clear and fluent to his ears, and it was very pleasant.The deep fear and vigilance made him have great doubts, and he couldn't believe what Pilotis said.

Many monsters have the power to masquerade as human beings.They peek into the deepest desires of the soul, speak them out in ambiguous language, and induce humans to become their food or slaves.

Wait, Pilotis?Isn't this the mysterious creature related to Haranduil that the elves have been searching for?

Griffith immediately recalled why he came here——

The elves saw through his identity and knew that Miss Launa was pretended by Griffith.Galadia would definitely not say this, could it be that Erza told them?Or some clues leaked information?

Having said that, the elf who was entrusted by Ms. Aviana of Yalan to come to assist is very clear about the relationship between Griffith and Galadia, and may have suspected "Miss Laura" who is very close to Galadia from the very beginning. true identity.

Wait a minute, the harpoon placed on Typhon's bow has thick blood, think about it carefully, how can Laura, who is a witch, control it?The elves must have planned it from the beginning, and took the opportunity to verify it...

During this process, Ersha knew about it and helped in the last step...

They are all looking forward to my meeting with Pilotis...

Griffith quickly sorted out his thoughts.He realized that his thoughts were clear and responsive, and he didn't seem to be hinted and manipulated.

Erza will not harm me, her actions and words seem to be watching and expecting my interaction with this creature.In case something happens, I will call for help to Galadia, she is not far away, this Sister Shoggoth can still eat me!

After trying to understand the matter, Griffith asked a little reassuringly:
"So, what's my plan?"

Pilotis talked about her agreement with Griffith.That was a long time ago:
"I was sleeping in the Antarctic Ice Field, waiting for the arrival of the ancient Master.

"When your people discovered me, your world was facing an unprecedented crisis. In the unstoppable invasion of my master, the Old One, your civilization is doomed to destruction.

"As one of the survival plans, you made a suggestion to me——

"Leading you and your people to a certain time and space, that is the era after the defeat of human civilization, the era after accepting slavery, and it is also the battlefield for counterattack."

"Who to fight back?" Griffith asked, "Can the ancients be defeated in this era? Where are they? Is the power of human beings much stronger than in the past?"

"No, no~" Pilotis shook his head, "I think the human beings in the past were much stronger than they are now. There were warships shuttled among the stars, which were bigger than a city! Its light was more dazzling than the sun! "

As the silver-haired Shoggoth girl spoke, she raised her hands and drew a big circle, which meant that the starship was so big.

"Where is this giant ship now?" Griffith asked.

Ashura and the others just said that they want to retrieve the "weapon" as soon as possible.He has never seen such a powerful warship. If what Pilotis said is true, maybe the next task is to find and dig out the starship.

"I think, it should be gone. Oh, don't be depressed, there are at least a thousand such starships! When they set sail, a thousand suns were arranged in a rectangular array, and the arc was full of stars and fleets. The sky in between is woven with a giant silver blanket. This giant wall of the sun advances into the depths of space with a thunderous momentum. Hundreds of heroes spread out their golden shields. , they are fighting with the fleet.

"At that moment, the stars and the sea silently restrained their light, listening to the roar of human beings attacking the universe."

What a powerful fleet this is. It sounds like there are extremely high-ranking priests and demon hunters to help out, and they are only supporting roles in the fleet.Griffith exclaimed: "Great, where are these battleships?"

"It should be gone." Miss Shoggos said.

"..."

"I don't know the specifics. Not long after the fleet set off, I followed the agreement with you and went through the tunnel bridge of time and space to lurk and wait for your arrival," Pilotis said. "If humans win, we will We won't meet again. Besides, you were very convinced that humans would definitely lose."

Has such a powerful force been defeated?What a brutal war it was?

Griffith shook his head in disbelief: "How can I fight against such an enemy that even a mythical army can't resist?"

"How do I know this!?" Shoggoth glared at Griffith, "You look confident and threaten me that if you want to be free and be with your sweetheart, you must do what you say Do. Only by defeating the civilization of the Old Ones can we have a future."

You don't know anything...how can that help me?Griffith was even weirder.

The creature, which calls itself a shoggoth, seems to have a good attitude and is not hostile.But if what she said is true, what would my past me want him to do?

He thought for a while, and then asked: "So, you always have something to give me, or some information to give me?"

"Yeah, there is."

Pilotis nodded: "One of my tasks is to provide guidance for you to arrive in this world. You can only come when I come. There must be certain conditions in this world that make you think there is a chance of winning. Meet you In the future, I need to remind you that the real rulers here are the ancients. They are my masters, and they are also enslaving humans and elves. To find out their whereabouts. The most important reminder is - Lieutenant, you must start immediately Prepare to fight the savior of the world and destroy him."

"Why do I have to fight the savior? Isn't this an enemy of the whole world? Oh, I understand, you go on." Griffith understood half of it.

Seeing that his collaborator was sane, Shoggoth was obviously relieved: "I have some special conditions and parameters for locating this world, which are set by you, and I don't know about them. What I know is that this world It has reached a precarious situation, and mana, as the most important source of spiritual energy, has become more and more dangerous. A similar situation has occurred in the world of the ancients. They must choose and pay an astonishing price.

"When the time is right, the savior will come to this world and guide them to a new era. He is unimaginably powerful, but you must destroy it."

"How powerful?"

Regardless of whether I believe this strange incident or not, information about the savior and the world is extremely precious...Griffith has completely calmed down and grasped the situation meticulously.

Shoggoth explained:

"You must know that there are 20 extraordinary paths leading to the gods in this world. Each has its own power and cannot share characteristics with each other. These 20 paths are the protection and prayer of the Holy Light, the concealment and control of the night, and the control of the storm." Energy and spirit, the travel and cultivation of the stars and the moon, the courage and forging of the flame, the law and error of the order, the fate of the starry sky, the chaos of the abyss, the plague and prophecy of the dream, the flesh and blood of life, the mutation and fantasy of creation, the evil spirit barren."

"I know their power." Griffith nodded, "but you're not telling the whole story."

"Beyond these 20 ways of God, there is a unique mystery that belongs to the savior," Pilotis said, "This is also what you have to face, the power of the caster can copy the other 20 extraordinary The ultimate power of power."

Magic can cast all other extraordinary powers? !
Griffith thought he had heard wrong.

"You heard me right, Lieutenant," Shoggoth still called him in the old habit, "ordinary spellcasters are limited by magic power and knowledge, but the savior is different. He has the strongest shield and the fastest speed , the deepest mind and the uncapturable footprints. He has countless ways to strengthen himself and weaken the enemy, he can penetrate into the abyss and the depths of the mind, he can even bring the dead back to life, and pry into the mystery of time and space."

"How can I defeat such an enemy?"

"This is your problem," Miss Shoggos spread out her hands, "It seems that your memory has been cleaned thoroughly, it's too bad, what if you forget your own strategy?
"However, on the bright side, you have deceived yourself, and your enemies will not realize that there is another way, the power that does not belong to any god is awakening.

"That's right, this is the last hope of mankind that can resist magic——

"War knights hidden under the dust of history!

"This is your weapon!"
