Players’ NPC daddy.

His voice gradually rose, as if he had gradually learned to speak and knew how to use words to describe his inner thoughts.

"Its death allowed you, the humble ones, to continue. I feel its death was unworthy, because its life was far more valuable than yours. So I will applaud your feat. For your humble lives, you brought down a great giant."

"And I didn't hesitate to gouge out my own eyes, letting my light enter the filthy and dark world, hunting those lowly lives, just to prolong my great life. This is such a huge sacrifice, so you should applaud me."

The god's expression was full of inevitability, and Blaze understood that he absolutely could not let such a thing leave alive.

Chapter 406: Guidance of Blood

The god's voice became louder, and the taste of blood in his mouth made him unable to help but sing praises to his own greatness to the sky.

God needs to be praised and enjoyed, but for endless time in the past, he was trapped in the danger of death, his emotions suppressed by wisdom, prophecy, thinking, and memory, and he mechanically repeated the actions to erase danger.

And the second time, he found joy in his actions.

He is a god and the son of a king. He was born with everything, so he cannot find happiness. Of course, he is not unhappy, and he has no desires or satisfaction.

Thinking about it now, that horrible dream of death brought him [fear] and gave him the [desire] to live, the blessing of being unharmed by all things in the world gave him [satisfaction], and the forgotten mistletoe gave him [pursuit].

For the first time in his life, he felt happy, and the wonderful feeling made him linger, so he acted as if he had found the love of his life.

How beautiful was the wail of the dwarf deprived of wisdom, how sweet was the blood of his father, which contained all-knowing knowledge, how beautiful was the look of his mother in confusion and despair. Every action he took brought the satisfaction of continuing life.

This might be what Wu Ni would call morbid, but he enjoys it.

Come to think of it, why does he have the leisure to think about these things now?

Of course, the All-Seeing Eye didn't bring the sting of death. He wouldn't die here. This was the first time he fought without worrying about his life. The torn wound brought out a certain special emotion. The excitement of dancing on the blade made the god's face flush strangely.

In the past, he always used Gungnir and runes to kill his enemies quickly and efficiently, but this was the first time he killed someone with his fists.

The scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere, Blaze's reaction of tense nerves to dodge the attacks, every part of it made him unable to stop.

What makes him happier than prolonging his own life is taking the life of others.

“It’s really, really wonderful!”

"Make me happier!"

The god's movements became frantic. He lacked the grandeur and holiness of a god, but rather some strange, human-like monster. He waved his arms wildly, speeding up or slowing down his attacks at will, just to see Blaze shattered under his attacks or flee in panic.

Blaze threw punches in a staggered pattern, hammering the god's face repeatedly to block his vision, while finding the right opportunity to change the god's attack trajectory and let the god hit him.

The god kept spitting out blood, but still laughed unscrupulously.

The illusion of death presented by the all-seeing eye in the past had become a limitation, forcing the gods to ruthlessly prioritize eliminating crises. But when this limitation was lifted and the gods realized why they were happy, they truly lost control.

Even if his health points were constantly being weakened, the Full-time Eye did not foreshadow any signs of death, so no matter how much damage Blaze inflicted, he would not die in the end.

No, it would be better to say, what if he died? Valhalla stood at their feet. Being beaten to death in such a battle would only allow him to enter Valhalla and gain true eternal life.

The god suddenly understood. No wonder Blaze could use his body to slowly chip away at his health, theoretically killing him with just that. Yet, the All-Seeing Eye hadn't transmitted any sign of his death. It turned out that after this battle, he would truly achieve immortality.

He felt regretful that he would no longer be able to enjoy the wailing and despair in order to continue his great life. But he did not feel sad, because the feeling of tearing life apart bit by bit with his fists made him find new happiness.

"Hahahaha—Lion! Put your claws to my throat!"

The god and Blaze engaged in a fierce battle, but the god no longer looked human. He approached, handstands, using his hands as feet, like a rag dancing in the air. It seemed as if nothing in the world was holding the god back, so he no longer cared about his appearance.

Finally, Blaze was overwhelmed and was hit by the flying hair of the god.

It was just soft hair, but it cut Blaze's flesh and blood like a sharp blade that could cut through space.

Blaze fell to the ground, his last bit of strength gritting his teeth as he leaned against the wall. Blood blurred his vision, leaving him nearly blind, unable to even see the approaching gods.

"Is this... no more? My health is just a little bit short."

The god twisted his head, almost turning it in a circle. He had just started to feel happy when Blaze fell down.

"It seems the All-Seeing Eye is right. The absence of death signs means I won't die today."

The god sighed regretfully, and at this moment, he saw Blaze tremblingly lifting something.

It was a blood-stained [gun].

"That's...ah~ you mortals who are trying to become gods."

The god couldn't help but laugh. This weapon that didn't even exist was completely useless to him, and this man who wanted to kill God actually used this thing as his last resort.

Poor man, he thought that the humble mortal had given him the hope of killing gods, but he didn't know that the mortal's greed had already made the gun spit out flames.

The gun wasn't even aimed at him, it was pointed in the completely wrong direction.

"Where are you aiming? It's ridiculous to end up with a completely missed shot. This way, this way."

The god used a gentle voice, as if guiding a lost lamb, to slowly guide the muzzle of Blaze's gun to the angle of his heart.

"That's right, right here. Now activate that gun and spew out the arrogance of those who want to kill God and the greed of those who want to become God."

But Blaze didn't pull the trigger, just gasping for breath like a dying man. Gradually, the god began to get impatient.

"Alright, a mortal attempted to kill a god, but this time he didn't even have the chance to spit wildfire..."

The god's voice faded along with his vision, and the world went dark, but his sense of smell remained. The smell of the blood staining the gun was like a pair of hands holding his, pointing him in the right direction.

Towards this side.

He wouldn't believe a single word the gods said.

But he would believe her words even if they were lies.

"Immortally imprisoned, poisoned all day long—"

boom--

A loud roar cut off the god's words, and a silver light sank into the god's empty left eye, then pierced through the back of the god's head and fell to the ground.

It was a silver bullet, flawless and beautiful like a work of art. As a crack appeared on the surface of the bullet, the god, maintaining a maniacal smile, slowly fell to the ground.

"Herbe Hermes sends his regards, Balder."

"Also, don't talk nonsense."

[The light is dead, the darkness has been released——]

Chapter 407 The origin of the gunman

There is a story in the world about the origin of the blessed ones and also the legend of the original blessed ones.

The original blessed ones were far from being like the blessed ones today, who can go to the sky and into the earth, eat the heart of a dragon, and fly into the sky.

The original blessed ones were just a group of immortals who would die and be resurrected again and again, and that was all.

Until one day, a blessed one raised a javelin in his hand and threw it at a huge wild boar.

The spear deftly pierced the boar's eye, grazed the hard bones, and pierced its brain. This was undoubtedly a coincidence among coincidences, a miracle among miracles, and also the first feat of defeating a vicious beast in this era.

This feat was recorded in the blessing and turned into power in the blessing.

[With a spear, he slew a beast as big as a mountain—his name is the Giant Beast Hunter]

Professions emerged and skills followed.

Whenever someone uses a weapon to perform an incredible feat, the blessing will recognize this feat and transform it into the power of blessing, and hide this power in the body of every blessed person.

The moment the silver bullet pierced through the god's head, the feat of killing God had already been accomplished.

[Completed special achievement: Shoot down the light]

[Obtained the special title: Blind]

[A silver bullet pierces the head of God—his name is God Gunner]

【Sharpshooter LV1】

[This profession can only be unlocked by holding the Blind Title.]

The origin profession named [Gunner] appeared in the blessing, and a complete profession tree grew out of it, intertwining with other professions, expanding the possibilities in the blessing once again.

And the weapon that accomplished the feat of killing gods will surely leave its own mark in history.

That bloodstained gun, simply assembled from a few parts, was recognized as a weapon, a gun, by the birth of the "gunman." The blood stains on the gun changed shape, transforming into a pattern of thorns like a parasitic plant on the gun's body.

It has its own name——【Misttin/???】.

Blaze held his breath, his body limp as he collapsed to the ground, but he never let go of Mistin's hand. The blood darkened his vision, as if he had entered a dark world, but the darkness also seemed to extend his vision, allowing him to clearly perceive everything around him.

So he knew that the god had only died physically, but his soul was still standing before him.

"Is this... death?" The god looked down at his own illusory hand, which was so vague that it seemed as if it would be blown away by the wind.

The corpse lying on the ground with a crazy smile on its face seemed particularly ironic, but he regained his indifference and even applauded Blaze for killing him.

"It was truly an amazing battle to kill gods. Your name will probably remain forever in the long river of time." The god was extremely calm because he knew where he was going.

There is only one place for those who died in battle to go, and that is the place of honor, the warriors' paradise - Valhalla.

"I'm sorry, my son, you can't go to Valhalla."

The sudden old voice made Blaze exhale sharply, then cough up a few mouthfuls of blood, and he dropped his hand.

"You old bastard, you're finally here."

"Little bastard, if you scold me next time, you better choose your words carefully." Odin took off his hat towards Blaze and made a winking expression with his single eye. "You will be my son from now on, so be careful not to scold yourself too."

"【SKIP】" Blaze attacked Odin with the most vicious words he knew, and tried to raise the middle finger of his hand lying on the ground.

Odin glanced at Blaze with a complicated expression. He didn't expect that this kid, who usually behaved so tough, would be so ready to acknowledge him as his father.

"Balder... Whether you still recognize your own name or not, you cannot go to Valhalla. Your fate has already been determined."

"Fate? I've already used the All-Seeing Eye to defeat it time and time again." The god's lips moved, a sarcastic smile playing across his face. "I'm different from you. You chose to face the end of fate, but I choose to sever it at its root, preventing its completion. If it is fate that I will fall into the abyss of death, then the All-Seeing Eye will surely give me a sign."

"How do you know? It gave you no signs?"

The god's gaze subconsciously shifted to the gun in Blaze's hand, and a chill came along with a slight vibration on the ground.

"That eye will give you signs, but it is not a kind and generous thing. It will remind you of the same signs again and again." Odin slowly approached the god. The shaking of the earth became more and more obvious, reaching a level that could be said to be earth-shaking.

It was like something huge was constantly crashing down on the ground from below.

"Are you sure you've defeated the sign of the All-Seeing Eye? Or do you think you've defeated it?"

Odin's broken right eye was like the incarnation of the abyss, and what made the god's soul tremble uncontrollably was the huge black shadow that was overwhelming.

It was a giant snake that looked like the world.

It was not that he fell into the abyss, but that the abyss came to find him.

"This, this is a battle full of glory! The glorious crown of godslayer belongs to this man, and I shall also return to my hall of glory!" The god's voice was almost distorted, and his mutilated right eye was looking for a direction to escape.

Odin stretched out his hand, blocking the god's escape. He didn't want to stop the god from leaving, but wanted his son to leave with dignity.

"Do you know why I don't extinguish the cause of destruction? Because the All-Seeing Eye isn't such a convenient thing. It tells you the future, but it also deprives you of your future. It's like a pair of scissors, cutting off lush branches until only one ending remains."

"Impossible, the All-Seeing Eye is omnipotent. I will go to Valhalla!" The god waved his arms frantically, trying to push Odin away and escape from the abyss in the snake's mouth.

Odin lowered his eyes, feeling despair at his son, who had become stubborn despite his omniscience. A glimmer of light flashed in his single eye, surrounded by wrinkles of age, and then only coldness remained.

"You can't go to Valhalla. Only those who died in battle can go there. And you took the initiative to guide Blaze, who had lost his sight and had no power to resist, to launch a fatal attack on you. You are committing suicide. And..." Odin raised the corner of his mouth, and laughed sarcastically as if he was admiring a funny clown.

"The prerequisite for going to Valhalla is that a Valkyrie eats your body. Where are your Valkyries?"

The god was stunned. He could no longer see any of the Valkyries that had been invading the earth like a bloody mist. As he gazed down indifferently at all living things, enjoying the useless efforts of these lowly beings, the Valkyries fell.

Even if there were lucky enough to survive, they would never be able to get close under the heavy pressure of the snake.

A huge suction force came from the snake's abyss-like mouth, as if it could swallow everything in the world, but the strong wind it stirred up only blew up the gods.

In the brief moment when his feet left the ground, the god looked into his own corpse's eyes, and those empty eyes allowed him to see all the signs of death in the past.

He saw himself being killed by a gun, but he didn't know how the gun took his life.

He saw that the dwarf's last creation would bring death, but he didn't know that it was his act of destroying the flower that made the dwarf decide to burn his own wisdom and summon countless meteors to guide the snake, the rainbow, and the man who killed him.

Each sign was a small change, but he didn't realize it until he reached the end. He never escaped any sign of death, and he even rushed towards this worst ending under the watchful eyes of the all-seeing eye.

“Ah, ahhhh, why—”

The god screamed and was pulled into the sky by the strong wind. He saw Blaze, and the all-seeing eye finally gave him what he wanted to know most.

That was his first action. He took away the wisdom of the dwarves and cursed and marked them. And the curse that was passed down through the dwarves' blood eventually turned into the encounter between a red-haired girl and a young boy.

The all-seeing eye that can see even the future and destiny is a curse.
