Godwin felt like his body was burning. He was already dead. Malikis' bite was no threat to him. The only thing that could make him feel pain was the black sword in the opponent's hand.

"I am already dead."

Godwin said softly, then reached out and grasped the black dagger.

During the night of the Black Sword Conspiracy, Godwin had already been killed once by the Death Rune. As he said himself, the current Black Sword could not kill him.

Just when the two parties were in a stalemate, a blue portal opened, and the immature Gu Long poked his head out of it and saw the two Godwins twisting together.

"You are indeed here, so I don't need to look around for you."

Then Gu Long took out a white porcelain bottle in his hand, with lavender mist surging on it, and said to Malikis next to him: "Hey, Maoqiu, I'll treat you to a glass of good wine."

Then, he threw the porcelain bottle in his hand. Malikus instinctively wanted to avoid it, but Godwin locked Malikus tightly, slowing him down for a moment.

Clap!

The porcelain bottle exploded on the ground, and the lavender sleep mist spread. Unlike races like the ancient dragons that do not need to sleep, the orcs like to sleep the most, so their resistance to sleep mist is very weak.

Malikis's body swayed a few times in the fog, and the fog with a faint aroma of wine made his mind start to feel dizzy.

Then, with a roar, Malikis' body fell down, making a dent in the ground.

Gu Long stuck his head out, then retracted, and said to Godwin, who was pinned down by Malikis: "Remember to bring him back. It's really tiring to open the portal here. Let's go."

Afterwards, the portal closed, Gu Long looked at Mikaela beside him and said:

"Your guess is indeed correct. Malikis did go to kill Godwin."

"He will definitely go, that's a beast that won't give up until it reaches its goal."

Michaela withdrew her hand from Marlenia's head. Her red curly hair was braided into two braids, which looked a bit rustic. Michaela smiled slightly, untied the two braids, and laid them on Marlenia's head. Behind Ya.

Gu Long waved his hand, recalling the feeling just now.

After receiving the eternal gift of space law, he can also open the portal like a mage.

But opening a portal in the Junction is completely different from the Marvel world. The space here feels strange. To put it simply, it is very hard.

It is not easy to open a passage. It is no wonder that the mages at the junction can only rely on physical portals if they want to teleport.

This world is turning into a beautiful amber little by little.

Thinking about what he saw when he came back, Gu Long understood something. There was a god who isolated the junction and wanted to stop it.

"It's a god's bad taste to collect a world."

Gu Long lay on the ground, muttered, and took care of his sister's hair. Michaela took apart Marlenia's prosthetic leg and checked the golden needles in her body.

Outside, a huge black bone dragon held Malikis and flew towards the holy tree.

Godwin sat on the back of the dragon. He refused the request of the lost knights to go together. This time, he was about to embark on the real road to death.

A book made of bones was spread out on his knees, which recorded the insights of the Goddess of Death in the Marvel world. The book was written in words that mortals could not understand. Each stroke looked hazy, but it was As sharp as a blade.

This weird sense of contradiction is gathered in one word, just like death itself, which is the most terrifying curse and the ultimate blessing.

Godwin couldn't understand the words, but he didn't need to. When he touched the words in front of him, the power in them would tell him what they meant.

"It's really interesting that there are so many interesting things about reincarnation, death, and disappearance."

Godwin was immersed in the book. Behind him, Malikis, who was chained, opened his eyes. His black sword was taken away and he was now just an ordinary beast.

"Hold still, Uncle Malikis."

"I don't want to kill you, really."

Godwin said calmly, and the bone dragon under him retracted its wings and landed on the holy tree.

Several corrupt knights gathered around, and the leading knight leaned down and bowed his head to the unrecognizable Godwin above.

Godwin ignored it and just motioned for them to take Malikis away. He took the black sword and walked towards the roots of the holy tree.

"Exactly what I imagined back then."

When Godwin met Michaela, the first thing he said was not a greeting, but an exclamation.

Of course he had some input into the establishment of the Holy Tree, but he never expected that the fragile child in the past would now become the most powerful force in the border area.

Michaela nodded to Godwin and reached out to take the black sword in the opponent's hand. The dagger-like black sword in Malikas' hand was as huge as a giant sword in Michaela's hand.

"Be careful not to hurt yourself."

Marlenia and Locke walked over quickly and looked at Michaela with concern. The other person shook his head and indicated that he was fine.

Michaela looked at Godwin and gently turned the black knife in her hand:

"Now, it's time to die, brother."

Godwin showed a relaxed smile, spread his arms, and said to the god in front of him:

"I can't ask for it."

Chapter 294: Shadow of the Golden Tree

At the base of the sacred tree, the roots wrapped around Godwin's body at Michaela's command and hung him between the tree roots.

The armor on Godwin's upper body was stripped off, leaving only some black thorns on his white hair.

Gu Long looked at Godwin who seemed to be nailed to the cross, curled his lips and said, "Isn't this the Christian one?"

There is also a cross at the junction, but the middle crossbar of the cross at the junction is curved like a crescent, in order to imitate the arc of the rune that carries the Ring of Eldon.

But at this moment, the figure of Godwin being bound by tree roots is more similar to Jesus being crucified in Christianity.

"This way the contact area is larger, which will be more convenient later."

Michaela said lightly, and then, the roots of the holy tree condensed into spikes and pierced into Godwin's body.

With the movement of the roots, the death power in the opponent's body was drawn out, dyeing the roots of the holy tree black.

"Now, insert the black sword into his body."

Gu Long picked up the black sword placed aside. The power of death made him tremble for a moment. Then, he threw the black sword out and penetrated deeply into Godwin's chest.

Then, the holy tree trembled, and those living on the holy tree knelt on the ground in fear. They saw a blasphemous black color climbing up the roots of the holy tree.

"The holy tree cannot affect the entire border area, but it can send my brother's soul to his body."

Michaela explained: "When the soul and body become one, he will truly die, and death will be returned to this world."

Godwin's body was integrated into the sacred tree. He had no physical body. What Locke brought back was only his soul.

At this moment, Godwin was absorbed by the roots of the holy tree like a pool of water, and those roots also turned into terrifying black thorns.

The roots of the holy tree vibrate and spread far underground. As a descendant of the golden tree, its roots can absorb souls. This is what the people in the border area call the returning tree.

"Go back, go back to your hometown at the foot of the golden tree."

Michaela whispered softly, and the black power of death carried Godwin's soul toward the distance.

But the next second, her face turned serious.

"There's something resisting. Is that... the body of Deathborn and my brother?"

Death is always a fact that all living things resist, and every living thing longs to extend its lifespan.

Even the dead are no exception.

If Godwin's soul and body were to become one, then the Deadborn would die completely, a proper death.

Unfortunately, this correct death is not what the deceased desires.

So, on the snowfield, amid the deafening sound of the death knell, the dead climbed out of the snow and rushed towards the holy tree.

They want to interrupt the process of Godwin's soul and body becoming one, and they don't want to die completely. At this moment, these guys who have died once are extremely eager...

Alive.

Gray-white weapons spread over the snowfield, and skeletons rattled in the fog. They stepped over the mountains, crossed the glacial lake, and entered the sea that separated the holy tree from the earth.

"There are too many of them!"

On the holy tree, the soldiers who were responsible for guarding the holy tree tightened their swords in their hands. In the distance, the army of the dead that filled the mountains and plains crossed the towering mountains and came towards the holy tree.

"They seemed unstoppable."

A veteran who had participated in the siege of the royal city of Rodel said softly that the scene in front of him even reminded him of the earth-shattering battle between the demigods.

Woo! ...

The battle horn sounded above the Holy Tree. The Sons of Platinum held bows and arrows and aimed at the Deathborn in the distance, while the Knights of the Holy Tree drew their spears and adjusted their status.

The assembled ballista was placed on the platform of the sacred tree, and the hybrid craftsmen filled the high-heat crucible with iron blocks and let it boil into a pot of boiling molten iron.

In just a moment, the Holy Tree was ready for battle. The most elite troops in the border area were here, but they did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

In the space under the tree roots, Michaela frowned and was a little at a loss. She did not expect that the reaction of the dead would be so great.

"Isn't Godwin the god of the dead?" Gu Long asked.

"He is, but there is a force with the same origin as him that controls all the Deadborn in the border area."

Michaela pointed to the blackened roots of the holy tree and said: "That is my brother's body, and a new consciousness seems to have been born in it."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's just go and help him."

Gu Long spoke, he thought for a while and said: "We just go directly to the location of his physical body and blow it up."

"Brother's body is deep in the roots of the golden tree. Wait, maybe there is no need to go to such trouble..."

Michaela thought for a while and said to Marlenia beside her: "Marlenia, I'll leave it to you to defend the Holy Tree this time."

As he spoke, Michaela stretched out her hand, touched her sister's hair, and then said: "Let all the Holy Tree Knights return to the barracks and lie on the bed to sleep."

"We're going to have a dream surprise attack!"

Under Mikaela's order, a team of Holy Tree Knights was organized to attack the enemy, and Malenia's Rotten Knights took over the army and became the first iron wall facing the Dead. .

The ignorant Holy Tree Knight returned to the barracks and lay down on the bed. Then, a mist poured out from the Holy Tree, allowing them to fall asleep.

Gu Long and Michaela huddled together and fell into a dream at the same time at the roots of the sacred tree.

In the dream world, the holy tree became a little different. Everything around it looked silvery and gleaming with a hazy lavender light.
