The Warrior of Love

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

After three consecutive bursts of magic power, the ice created by Skadi was harder than steel, but it slowly cracked into tiny cracks under the lingering impact.

boom!

Countless ice crystals shattered, and a strange figure broke out from them.

It is difficult to describe its shape. It is like a shapeless shadow, or like the starry sky reflecting the universe... In the chaotic darkness, a beast eye as bright as flame appeared, staring at everyone present with resentment.

"I've actually been plotted against one day. I really underestimated you, Lady Skadi. However, I won't let anyone bully me...

Fortunately, I had already obtained the "Squirrel" before, and I had an extra tail. There was nothing else I wanted in this Lostbelt.

Your destruction is inevitable. Before you perish, I will play with you for a while!"

A resentful voice came from the chaos, and the eye suddenly closed. Then, magic power surged, and a dazzling flash shot out from the shadow, targeting Skadi!

This attack may seem simple, but its power is comparable to that of an anti-city weapon. Even Skadi cannot be careless and quickly waves her wand to set up a rune magic circle to fight against it.

Seeing this scene, even though they had been in chaos because of Skadi's betrayal, the Valkyries had accumulated countless years of combat experience, so they naturally would not sit idly by and immediately formed a formation and flew over.

The situation changed too quickly. First, Skadi, who was supposed to be the final boss, turned against them. Then she released the seriously injured Yuanshan Jiangliu. Then the fox-like woman suddenly transformed into a monster that could compete with the gods.

Ritsuka was unable to comprehend the whole story in such a hurry, but after calming down and thinking carefully, she soon understood the key: she and Skadi were both trying to prevent the two worlds from colliding, and in theory they were natural allies.

And Ophelia, who was originally the master of Chaldea, suddenly appeared in this place, and then clearly stated that she wanted to destroy the hometown of Ritsuka and others. At this time, the sea area Skadi fell out...

The interests involved are already very clear!

"Brunhild, attack Sigurd!"

Ritsuka called out loudly, and the Valkyrie with ice-blue hair suddenly turned into a phantom and rushed out.

Ophelia's previous words were a little strange, as if she was planning something, which made Lixiang feel a little uneasy.

So she assigned Brunhilde to deal with the dragon slayer without hesitation, because according to the original myth, the eldest sister of the Valkyrie had a weapon that could actually kill Sigurd!

Chapter 801: The Fire Giant is coming!

"O demonic sword of the sun, use this to bring about the dawn of destruction!"

With a heart as powerful as that of a dragon, Sigurd, who had released all his magic power, raised the two-handed sword. The blood-red blade was coated with a layer of clear emerald color, which was the True Aether from the Age of Gods.

Sigurd is a hero of the same origin as Siegfried, and their treasures have certain similarities, but they should never be equated. If Siegfried's magic sword symbolizes dusk, then the Gram in Sigurd's hand is the solar blade that symbolizes dawn.

That is the magic sword that chooses kings and slays dragons in mythology, and it is destined to be wielded by a peerless hero.

"【Bolverk Gram】!"

After its true name was released, the magic sword burst into an extremely bright light, splitting into countless sword shadows, which shot out like powerful crossbows under Sigurd's iron fist.

call out!call out!call out!

Sword shadows cut through the void, and at the moment of overlapping, they seemed to separate heaven and earth, carving out a meteor trail across the sky, falling towards Lixiang.

Its power is comparable to that of the highest-level anti-city weapon, and even the gods would be awed by it!

In response, the one who came forward was not Mashu, who was proud of her unbreakable wall, but Brunhilde, whose body was wrapped in blue flames.

This original Valkyrie showed no fear in the face of the magic sword. Her slender hands brushed across the spear, and flashing runes were engraved on it.

At this moment, just like Slude and others before, Brunhilde also released the "Great God's Seal" in her body!

It was a blessing carved by Odin himself. When it was liberated, it was like the rune that the great god fished out from the fountain of wisdom.

The magic sword Gram was once broken by Odin's spear, but now the magic spear held by Odin's daughter will challenge this myth!

"Until Death Do Us Part (Brynhild Romantia)!"

She injected all her magic power into the divine spear, causing the already overwhelmed body to further collapse. However, Brunhilde did not hesitate at all and threw the spear at her former lover!

The sword and the gun, following unpredictable trajectories, collided in the air accurately as if it were fate!

boom--

If we only compare power, then a B-rank divine spear against humans will never be able to defeat an A+ magic sword against a city... However, the outcome of a battle cannot be determined by the numerical value alone.

The Valkyrie's spear carries not only the original rune, but also her feelings and thoughts.

The "quality" of the spear is equivalent to how much the Valkyrie misses. The heavier her emotions are, the more exaggerated the quality of the spear will be.

This only has to do with Brunhilde's own emotional fluctuations. When she falls in love with someone, the spear in her hand will become a weapon to take that person's life!

Carrying the longing and love for Sigurd, as well as the resentment of being forced to be hostile to each other due to the trick of fate, Brunhilde's spear turned into an aurora that could penetrate all defenses, and with the amplification of the Great God's Mark, it broke the power of the magic sword in one breath!

puff!

Sigurd had no power to resist, and his chest was pierced by a spear, and even his soul core was torn apart.

"Sigurd, my love, I never thought that I would once again... No... No, that's not right!"

Brunhilde, who was originally very sad, suddenly changed her expression.

"No! This feeling... My gun doesn't feel your love. You are not my lover!"

The moment she noticed something unusual, the Valkyrie did not doubt Sigurd's intentions, but directly questioned his identity.

As soon as these words were spoken, Ritsuka, who had thought that everything was settled, suddenly became nervous, and so did Mashu.

Only Rider still had a calm expression, as if he had known it for a long time.

Shidune glanced at Rider secretly, a hint of doubt flashing across his face, but he said nothing.

"Who are you? Why do you appear as Sigurd?!"

"who am I?"

Facing Brunhilde's threat, Sigurd, who was pierced through the chest, remained calm and composed, not looking like he was in danger of death.

"I am Sabero Sigurd, there is no doubt about that. But..."

The warrior paused, turned around and looked at his master, only to see Ophelia also looking at him. Her expression seemed very calm, but she couldn't help revealing an unintentional sadness in her one eye.

Sigurd took a deep breath and closed his eyes, muttering, "That's enough... Let's stop here..."

After calming down, Sigurd slowly opened his eyes and looked at the people of Chaldea without joy or sadness, especially Jiang Liu who was seriously injured and seemed to have no ability to fight anymore.

"The game of playing the role of a knight has ended, but the fun is still there. Let's start the next game--"

hum! !

A terrifying aura erupted from the knight's body, sweeping across the four directions like a tsunami, causing everyone to hold their breath.

Although it is not the domineering aura, it has the same effect. Under the suppression of the aura, the space seems to be frozen.

Both Brunhilde and Mashu were greatly shocked, and even Shidune opened his eyes wide, as if he had encountered an existence that he could not understand.

Only Jiang Liu remained calm and composed.

His body was in tatters and he had to rely on the platinum blade to stand on the ground. It looked like he could be blown down by a gust of wind, but he remained indifferent in the face of such astonishing pressure, as if a gentle breeze was caressing his face.

"Sure enough... So that's what's going on."

Looking at Sigurd, whose body was gradually cracking, revealing red flames and magic patterns, and seemed to be turning into a monster, Jiang Liu nodded to himself, as if it was not beyond his expectations.

“I’ve always been puzzled. That guy - the Fire Giant King ‘Surutu’ - didn’t say a word during the battle with me. He could only make some meaningless roars, just like a wild beast.

However, his fighting skills and abilities are not fake and are far beyond the reach of ordinary beasts.

I thought it was Odin's curse and seal that took away his ability to speak... Now it seems that it was you who was to blame - Surut!"

"Jiejiejie——"

I don’t know if it was the sound of the wind caused by the heat wave or the strange howl of the monster, but the original Sigurd has completely disappeared, and in his place is a bull-horned demon that is constantly growing and is wrapped in flames!

A closer look revealed that its body and flames were not entities, but phantoms condensed by magic power. However, the pressure was real and without any compromise.

Jiang Liu called this phantom "Sulut"... If this is true, then what was the giant that fought with him for several days and nights? !

"You don't seem surprised at all?" The giant shadow lowered his head and stared at Jiang Liu.

"Are you confident in your military strength, or... have you already seen through my depth?"

"Both. I don't think I will lose, even if there is one more opponent... On the other hand, I also know that you don't actually have much power."

His body shape alone is like a towering mountain, and Surut looks like an extremely ferocious god no matter how you look at him... but Jiang Liu actually said that he has no power!

But Surut himself didn't react at all, as if it didn't matter.

"It seems that you have indeed figured it out. You do have some tricks... That's right, I am just a shadow now, and most of my power is in the "other me"."

Lixiang gasped as he looked at the towering giant. He really had no idea how to fight such an opponent. Even after hearing Jiang Liu's words, he was still nervous and unable to calm down.

"Brother...what's going on? Why would Sigurd..."

"That's not Sigurd!"

Brunhilde interrupted and said, "That is just Sigurd's spirit that hosts the soul of the Flame Giant King! Although it occupies Sigurd's body, he is definitely not my lover!"

"That's right. It wasn't just Sigurd who made a contract with Ophelia. I don't know what method she used, but she also made a contract with Surut!"

At this point, even Jiang Liu found it a little unbelievable and began to admire Ophelia, because according to common sense, an existence like Surut, who surpassed the ordinary main god level... could not be summoned by mortals.

"But just now I asked you how you ended up like this, brother, you said you were with..."

"Well, I also fought with Surut in another world."

"Sulut... there are two?"

"No, technically there is only one, but the soul is divided into two."

Jiang Liu took a look at the huge shadow and grinned.

The "emotional" side, which has more emotions and wisdom, took over Sigurd's spiritual base and played the game of knight and princess with Ophelia.

The "wild" side of him, which possessed the desire for destruction and the instinct to fight, remained in the apocalyptic world and became the guardian of the world tree... Then, you have been waiting for this moment!"

"Hehehe... Ha! Distant mountains and rivers!"

The huge Fire Giant King stretched out his hand and grabbed in the sky, as if he had grabbed a solid object. He tore with both hands hard, and a huge hole appeared in the entire sky.

And behind the hole, there was endless flames, which was exactly where Jiang Liu had been before.

Right in this hole, there was also a pair of huge hands tearing the sky apart. Their movements were almost identical to those of the phantom giant, and even their positions overlapped, as if it took the combined efforts of the two to tear open this piece of space.

"Odin's seal cannot be removed from the inside, but if it is broken from the outside... I can only return to this world if I divide my power into two parts, inside and outside!"

Rumble, rumble...

A huge amount of flames poured down from the sky, just like the scene in the Old Testament story when the gods poured sulfur and fire on the earth when they destroyed the sinful city of Gomorrah.

These flames filled Surut's body like blood, transforming it from a phantom into a solid entity.

The souls are united, and the true Fire Giant King is born!

"Yuan Shan Jiang Liu! Let's start the second round! I will defeat you!"

Chapter 802: The Eleventh Trial

boom!

Surut, whose body and soul are united, is a thousand meters tall. Among the enemies Jiang Liu has encountered, except for the mother goddess Tiamat whose size is "infinite", this giant king of fire can be said to be the most outstanding existence.

Simply releasing the magic power brought about an extremely intense heat wave, which evaporated the snow within a radius of thousands of meters like a solar wind, exposing the rock layer of the entire mountain.

The huge heat explosion made it unbearable for everyone, even the servants felt very tortured, and Ritsuka was even more difficult. Fortunately, Rider and Mash stood in front of her and blocked the first wave of heat, and Shidune was also smart enough to cast an ice protection for her to isolate her from the high temperature.

A random movement of the Fire Giant King produced an effect that was almost like a sudden change in the universe, shocking everyone present.

Even Jiang Liu showed a cautious expression: Surut is now obviously stronger than when he fought with him before!

With the power of this spiritual base, and because of the existence of the "Twelve Trials", he was able to hold back the Giant King. Now, he is about to run out of energy, while Surut has made one step further... Obviously, the balance of victory and defeat has tipped.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. Who can blame this guy for having such terrifyingly powerful magic power and being truly immortal?

Jiang Liu has "killed" him dozens of times, but he was able to recover every time, even when using a treasure that targets immortality... Jiang Liu has not been able to find his weakness so far, and can only make some guesses.

"Could it be..."

Gao Yanskaya and Skadi, who were originally fighting, also stopped and looked at the Fire Giant King with vigilance.

Of these, the goddess Skadi was naturally hostile and indifferent, while Goyanskaya was sarcastic with a hint of caution - I don't know how she could show such human emotions in her current form.

As if she felt a huge threat from the Fire Giant King, and felt that her current appearance was too conspicuous, Gao Yanskaya was silent for a moment, and took the initiative to dissipate most of her magic power, allowing the distorted shadow to melt like ice and snow.
