book of old days

Chapter 113 God Killing
boom!I don't know who fired a shot. The gunshot interrupted Aum's roar. He turned around and lowered his head again. A small hole was shot in his chest, and blood was slowly overflowing at this time. Come.

Aum looked at a row of black muzzles raised at the same time on the opposite side, with a fearful expression on his face for the first time.

"wait for me!"

Sean guessed afterwards that he might say 'I surrender', or 'I am Yigo', or something like 'I am your god'.

But the Nords didn't let him finish, bang bang bang bang—bang!More gunshots rang out.

They were almost mad at Aum in a cathartic way, and Howe poured bullets on him without hesitation, not caring at all that it might be the god they said they believed in in the past.

The sound of pulling the bolt came one after another, and the sound of bullet casings falling on the slate floor was clear and pleasant, which could still be distinguished even in the noisy gun battle.

Aum was shot again and again, and his body was full of bullet holes in the blink of an eye. Sean didn't dare to go forward to make up the knife. It would not be worthwhile if he was accidentally injured.

He took out his revolver in a timely manner, and aimed at Aum's chest, and emptied the bullets in the magazine in one go.

When the gunfire finally died down, Aum's body had been shot into a sieve.

He was shot with hundreds of bullets, and it is amazing that he can still stand there unsteadily at this moment, but he obviously can't stand for long, the golden blood is flowing from his mouth and the wound on his body. It gushed out, and the muscles that were as majestic as a male god also shriveled as if they had been discouraged.

His face was ashen, and there was a self-deprecating look on his face, "Nords..., ha ha." After he finished speaking in a low voice, he fell down suddenly, and the sun halberd in his hand turned into golden light and disappeared. up.

The scene was extremely silent for a while, Wilson walked over with the golden eagle head in his arms, and looked at Aum on the ground with a dazed expression—is this the end?
Did you win? ?Everyone looked at Aum's body in disbelief. Didn't they expect the legendary sun god Aum to be shot to death just like that?
Sean had to be more sure. Aum's divine power was not much left, and his fate was already doomed the moment he was broken. As for why his protective light disappeared, Sean There is a vague guess in my heart.

The wise man of the oak tree once explained that belief in gods is not a living body in the general sense, but a product of the power of human belief. Although Aum is the core of belief, it is not the only spiritual symbol. Goshawks, statues, The temple, and even his throne, are part of this belief system.

Aum's body has been imprisoned in a mortal's body for hundreds of years, and it has long been exhausted, so he wants to go back here and get his power back, so where is his power?It is very likely that it is stored on this eagle-headed throne.

Probably because of this, when Orm's throne was destroyed, his divine power was also weakened.

But these are not the most important. He walked to the corpse to touch the corpse, and he didn't know how Aum's divinity remnants would be displayed.

However, before he could make a move, some golden particles emerged from Aum's body, and these particles condensed into a golden goshawk above the corpse, shining brightly and spreading its wings. Sean didn't hesitate this time, he had already He had been waiting for this moment, and before anyone could react, he grabbed the golden Eagle of Light.

With one touch, the golden goshawk immediately turned back into golden particles and sank into his arm. Sean felt a burning heat in his body, and a warm current spread along his arm towards his body, as if a flame was burning in his body. The rays of the sun flashed in his eyes, and when he looked down, the veins of the blood vessels showed a golden color, which lasted for a few seconds before gradually fading away.

There was a sudden scorching heat on the arm, and a golden goshawk pattern gradually emerged on the arm.

At that moment, Xiao En realized something in his heart. He had studied spiritual magic before, and he was no stranger to the application of this belief in divine power. Although the two are different, they also have subtle similarities. Using divine energy and using spiritual magic The principles of magic are quite similar, and they are also the application of the power of belief. The difference is that spiritual magic uses one's own 'faith', while divine power comes from the belief of others.

He closed his eyes and felt this divine power carefully. Aum's divinity is very unique, combining the two divine powers of the sun and creation.

What made him heave a sigh of relief was that this power was very pure, without any Aum's consciousness or memory mixed in it.

This is quite consistent with what the wise man of the oak tree described. When a god of faith is killed, its personal will will dissipate, and what remains is often the purest divine power.
What makes him regret is that this residual divine power is pitifully small.

With a thought in Sean's mind, divine power surged in his body, his body exuded a faint golden halo, and a sense of warmth. This is the most intuitive manifestation of the sun's divine power, radiance and heat.

He can release the sun's light in any way, dispel the darkness, and light up the light.

He can also condense his divine power to create a more scorching sun beam, just like the "God's Light of Retribution" used by Aum, but with his current divine power, it can probably be equivalent to a high-power electric furnace.

However, the application of the divine power of creation is more complicated. Creation is creation, but it is created with sunlight——

The reason why such a strange mythological view is formed is that the area where the Nords live is cold and lacks light, so sunlight becomes a very precious natural resource. When the sun illuminates the world, it gives warmth and light to the world, plants grow, animals luxuriant, so the Nords associated the sun with creation.

Correspondingly, there is an overlap between the goddess of aurora and the goddess of death, probably because of the extreme northern and cold night sky where the aurora often appears. It is a world with only severe cold and ice. People lament the beauty of the aurora and fear it. The frail elderly often die in such a polar night, and the Polaris has thus become a symbol of death...

Xiao En tried the divine power of creation again. He stretched out his hand, and with a thought, streaks of golden light condensed and intertwined in his hand, forming a golden hollow sword.

This light has no temperature, holding it in the hand, it is like cold metal, smooth but without the slightest weight.

Xiao En swung it twice. This sword is made of the power of the sun. It is almost weightless, but it is extremely sharp. It is much easier to use than ordinary weapons. However, with his current power, he can also create a sword and shield. If it is too big, it cannot be made, and it must be a hollow design. There is no way, and the magic power is too little.

But in any case, it can be regarded as gaining divine power, and Sean is still very happy about it.

He also realized the way to replenish the divine power, that is to bask in the sun, the longer the sun is exposed to the body, the more the sun's divine power will be in the body, in a sense, it is somewhat similar to Superman.

Ragnar looked at the golden eagle on Sean's arm, and then at the bear's face on his arm, thoughtful.

"So this is the power of the gods? You got the power of Orm?"

"That's right, although it's a bit weaker, it's still usable."

In fact, his sun power is stronger than Ragnar's beast power, because Orm returned to the temple and recovered part of his power, and Uruk still failed to pass through the gate, but it's not much. After all, they are all gods of faith that have been forgotten for hundreds of years.

With a bang, a wall suddenly collapsed, and Xiao En, who was immersed in the joy of harvest, came back to his senses.

He looked around and saw that the entire temple was constantly collapsing. It seemed that with the death of Aum, the temple also lost its power core. Sean hurriedly called everyone to leave.

Wilson ran last with a pile of smashed gold and rushed out at the last moment.

Everyone retreated to the square on the hillside, looking at the surrounding buildings that were constantly collapsing, they all felt a little terrified, and at the same time felt very unreal. Was everything that happened just now real?Did they really kill the legendary sun god Aum?He also killed a bunch of heroic warriors, those are only found in fairy tales.

The fat man suddenly said excitedly: "Then does this mean that we have become godslayers?"

A hunter said: "Haha, Godslayer, I like this title."

"Come on, it's John and Ragnar who killed Orm."

"Hey, I did my best too. Besides, it's not just one person who can get it."

"Okay everyone, everyone is a godslayer, you can brag slowly after you go back, of course, the premise is that someone believes it."

Ragnar's words made everyone speechless. Indeed, even if this matter was told, no one would believe it.

Scar Wilson said triumphantly: "Haha, I'm still smart. I'll talk about it after I get the gold."

The temple of the gods has collapsed into disgrace, just like the dilapidated temples they saw on the way, becoming gray and decadent, crumbling, and finally lifeless like a tomb.

Looking at the gold in Wilson's hands, the others became envious.

"Give me some." The fat man said with a shy face.

"I asked you to help if you don't help, it's not your share."

Xiao En suddenly said: "Don't worry everyone, there will be gold, and there will be a lot of it."

Everyone looked at Sean, but Sean pointed to the other side of the mountain in the distance.

"Don't forget, there are three main gods in Nord mythology, Uruk, the god of war and beasts, Om, the sun god and the god of creation, and Sindora, the goddess of aurora, her temple is over there. "
