The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

"Yes, it's not over yet."

Chapter 423 Faith

"Oh great God! Please give instructions to your humble and devout servant."

In a room filled with a wild atmosphere and reminiscent of shamanic ornaments, a figure dressed in a tattered robe raises his hands.

A strange figure, with no exposed skin and arms wrapped in grayish-yellow bandages, was talking to the statue:

"Please tell me, which deity has fallen? And who is the blasphemer?"

After saying that, he lowered his head and stroked the crystal ball in front of him with both hands.

But the crystal ball did not react at all.

Why can't we see any revelation?

The strange man was silent for a moment, then lowered his head helplessly.

!

!

"Why...why, why! Why!?"

Card wipe!

The sound of shattering glass rang out as he smashed a crystal ball of extremely high purity.

"Where exactly is it!?"

The crystal ball, which was originally worth as much as a legendary item, was destroyed, but the strange man didn't care at all.

"Do not!

"That won't do!"

Instead, he reached out and grabbed one of the sharp crystal shards, plunging it fiercely into his palm!

Blood gushed out, staining the shattered crystal ball crimson.

"I pay with my blood, look at me!"

hum-

Suddenly, the crystal ball, which had been unresponsive, began to change, emitting a bright red light!

"Hahahaha! It really works!"

Upon seeing this change, the strange man let out a maniacal laugh, and as he laughed, he stabbed another crystal into his thigh.

"Yes! That's it! That's it! Give me more information..."

It didn't appear in space, but directly in the monster's mind.

In the scene of the model lake, the sky is filled with chaotic light.

He saw many, many people of different heights and builds, but they were all running, chasing after the same figure.

The strange man's eyes widened as he tried to figure out who was in front of him, but he couldn't see clearly; his eyes seemed to be looking through a layer of mist.

"More!"

Just as the scene was about to blur, madness flashed in his eyes!

More!

! ”

The strange man pulled the crystal from the center of his palm and then, without hesitation, plunged it into his own heart.

"I! Cough cough cough! I beg for your mercy, at the cost of my life!"

As if the gods had truly heard his prayers, the scene before him began to become clear.

He saw their faces clearly!

Old people, teenagers, men, women... they wear clothes from different eras and are dressed in various organizational attire.

"Humans are just humans after all, damn Watchmen!"

Time and again they have thwarted their grand plans and delayed the resurrection of the gods!

It is humankind that has driven them to such a tragic situation.

"Damn humans, enemies of all things!"

Now they actually dare to commit such a blasphemous act as slaughtering a god. What despicable means did they use to do such a thing?

"You will pay the price for this. I will make you understand how heavy the price of blasphemy will be!"

The strange man spat out blood, which soaked the shards of the crystal ball, but he didn't care and continued to laugh loudly.

Just as he was about to see the shadow's face clearly, he suddenly heard a soft laugh.

A burst of mocking laughter.

【hehe.】

There were no sarcastic words, only a faint, ambiguous laugh, but it stopped the strange man in his tracks.

Kakaka...

The crystal ball fragments embedded in his corpse shattered the next moment.

"Pfft! No!"

! ”

At the same time, the enlightenment he gained at the cost of a great deal of bloodshed and effort vanished and could no longer be seen clearly.

"What……"

It was as if the spiritual radiance contained within it had been completely swallowed up, and the crystal ball no longer reacted.

"What? What happened?"

When the strange man's blank gaze fell upon the shattered crystal ball, he froze, then knelt heavily on the ground in disbelief.

"Gone? All gone... The divinity bestowed by my Lord!?"

The energy contained within the crystal ball vanished, leaving only a pile of beautiful but useless debris.

"It's all over."

Not only has his divinity vanished, but his only hope has also disappeared!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

!

Ignoring his injuries, he roared at the sky like a wounded beast, venting his anger wildly.

The expanding, bursting magic surged forth, shattering everything in sight.

“My beloved Lord! Why can’t you give your foolish believers some guidance?”

Black blood gushed from the large hole remaining in his chest, soaking the ground.

He tore at his hair in agony, wailing and weeping as he knelt and prayed before the statue in front of him.

“My Lord! Have mercy on your people. Your humble believer prays to you here. We really need you to show us the way forward.”

As usual, the statue did not react at all, but simply remained in its original position, silently watching him.

"Have you really abandoned us?"

Despair enveloped the strange man.

Because he knew very well that his master would not reply to him this time either.

Never again. He has done something unforgivable and will be abandoned by the Lord.

And with his final prayer failing, his life was drawing to a close.

"My lord! I'm so sorry, I can't wait for your return!"

The strange man collapsed heavily before the statue, blood gushing from his body as it grew cold.

He didn't notice when the monster collapsed.

As he was about to die, a ray of light suddenly flashed across the statue in front of him, which had lost all function and become a lifeless, withered image that had existed for thousands of years.

The statue seemed to be silently watching the tragic scene before it.

However, that gaze was too...

indifferent.

……

……

"Judging from this, it seems that the prophecy of the Forest Shaman has failed."

Hearing the agonizing screams coming from the other side and feeling the rapidly declining life force after the magic went out of control, the seemingly young legend sighed.

"His reaction probably means he didn't get the insights he wanted, right? Tsk, I told you he should have given up long ago, even though he's been trying for so many years."

Beside him, the seemingly elderly legend glanced at him silently and spoke indifferently:

“This is faith, and you shouldn’t mock a believer with a firm faith.”

The young legend shook his head, muttering to himself nonchalantly:

"Perhaps, but I really can't understand why he would be willing to sacrifice his life so meaninglessly... Tsk, shall we continue?"

The aged legend shook his head and sighed.

The legends of the new generation have never witnessed the majesty of the gods, and their faith is not pure...

But he offered no further explanation, simply stating coldly:

“No, we await His Holiness’s instructions. We must not initiate the ritual until we have ascertained the truth of the matter.”

The young legend shrugged and smiled, shrugging his shoulders.
