He didn't continue speaking, but smiled self-deprecatingly.

Yukinoshita can vent like crazy, but she always keeps her rationality. But I almost lost my mind just now. After Yukinoshita went crazy, she was still Yukinoshita, but after other people went crazy, they would probably become crazy people.

Maybe there is an invisible shackle that prevents her from becoming crazy, and she herself has no shackles, or is still waiting to be awakened?

Hayato Hayama looked up at the dim sky, and the next second, he froze with a look of sadness and fatigue.

The Kasumi Hill that was hovering overhead flew down, transformed into a human form, and looked up at the sky with Uncle Kobayashi.

The dark sky was illuminated by a ray of light, which was the first ray of sunlight that broke through the morning light. But now, it was night in normal time. The sky, which had just entered the night, was bright.

"Light and shadow come together... Dawn."

Chapter 57: Light and Shadow: Dark

If we take real time as an example, it is around eight o'clock in the evening.

But a ray of morning light pierced through the dark sky, and colorful clouds emerged from the horizon. Emerging from the clouds was a colorful chariot with gold edges, and the pure white horses pulling the chariot had golden wings.

On the chariot was a goddess with golden curly hair. Her graceful and light body was draped in a saffron feather dress. Her charming face had a touch of pink charm, and even her fingers were rosy red.

Behind her, the dense army of gods stood in neat rows. They moved and turned into countless streams of light that smashed towards the ground.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—"

The dull sound of huge hammers hitting the earth swept across the earth, and there were also tremors under the feet.

"Eos, goddess of the dawn..."

Hayato Hayama's throat moved as he murmured, "Defeating the night and welcoming the dawn... that's a bit too much."

"Aren't night and dawn mutually reinforcing and mutually exclusive? Maybe Eos has already arrived, but the rules don't allow her and Nyx to appear at the same time. Besides, there are too many gods in Greek mythology, and only killing Zeus can end everything."

Kobayashi Daigo's voice came, and his voice did not carry the despair of helplessness, but was as gentle as ever.

"traitor."

Eos opened her rosy lips, her voice was charming, with a soft and intoxicating sound, like sweet milk. Just hearing this voice, I felt a sweet breath entering my nose, making me intoxicated.

"Your cause is in vain. This world needs God. God exists among all things."

She blinked her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the red cloud at the corner of her eyes, which looked like eye shadow, added a touch of charm to her. The goddess of dawn didn't care about Nyx's death at all, and just looked straight at the two men.

"Submit to me, and you will have my protection, and Zeus will forgive your sins."

When these words were spoken, the three of them were slightly stunned, but they quickly understood.

The goddess of dawn in Greek mythology was a womanizer by nature. After she had an affair with the god of war Ares, she was cursed by the goddess of beauty Aphrodite and fell into endless lust for mortals.

"She's actually a bitch."

The teasing of Hayato Hayama made the high-ranking Eos slightly stunned. She didn't seem to understand the meaning of the word "bitch". In the era when moral concepts were just budding, "prostitutes" were not shameful. They supported themselves by labor, so there was no such insulting word as "bitch" in this era.

They believe that love only happens between men, and that love between men and women is just to satisfy physiological needs. The role of women is only to give birth to children, and even if they get married, they will not have feelings. Under the influence of this male worship ideology, brothels are opened specifically to meet the needs of men, so those women even have a sense of sublimity?

Although it was the first time she heard this word, Eos felt a strong sense of disrespect from Hayato Hayama's contemptuous gaze. As a result, her gaze instantly turned cold, and a strong pressure swept over from the sky.

"You will regret your wrong decision and you will die in pain."

The Pegasus pulling the chariot of Eos raised its front hooves high and neighed clearly. The Protoss soldiers standing in neat rows in front also took an attacking stance.

"Is it possible to attack her while she's having sex?"

Under the strong sense of oppression, the girl, who was trying to find joy in misery, made a rare joke.

Xiaolin Daigo was not angry either. He shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile: "My daughter is only two months old. Don't use such a joke on me, you rude little girl."

"As a druid, I don't blame you for not understanding the virtues of chivalry."

After Hayato Hayama made a bland rebuttal, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "After the awakening of the Azeroth class, even modern people will become more and more immature. After all, some power comes from the belief and respect for the source of power, just like you like nature more and more."

He paused and added: "Stepping back, if it were you, would you be willing to use your body as a bargaining chip for interests or purposes?"

Shiyu smiled without comment. Kitahara Sora had also raised this question when facing her fellow countrymen not long ago.

Some things are more important than life. Some people have no faith, but they must have their own bottom line, principles and things they always insist on, perhaps that is faith.

In this case, what should they do now? Facing the army so close at hand, the three of them were exhausted.

Want to escape?

The uncle who usually doesn't talk much thought of this suggestion. He glanced at Hayato Hayama and then looked back at Shiyu. He dismissed this idea.

The Paladin raised the Guardian of Truth and placed the Spear of Victory on the shield. The silent girl's body was shrouded in black smoke, and a loud beast roar came out of her throat.

There was no way to escape. Although the army had already fled from here, the rumbling sound of stampeding still lingered in my ears. They had even just left my sight not long ago.

The death of Nyx alerted Eos, and she decided to kill the three outsiders first before pursuing the fragile coalition forces. However, when the remaining army was annihilated, everyone's doom came.

As for the persuasion just now, it was just a spur-of-the-moment idea after seeing the two handsome men.

So, where can you escape to? You can't escape.

There were too many accidents, and there shouldn't have been more trouble. Kitahara Sora shouldn't have gone to the Caucasus Mountains to rescue Prometheus immediately after reaching an agreement with Gaia, and Yukinoshita shouldn't have blindly gone to the underworld.

If they stayed together like the other teams, these two goddesses would hardly pose a threat... But now that they have discovered the problem, should they ignore it instead of dealing with it? If so, perhaps there will be a greater crisis in the future.

"If we fail, everyone will be buried with us. The funny thing is, I should have sacrificed for everyone, but someone sacrificed for me."

Hayato Hayama's eyes were cold, and his tone was filled with deep remorse and grief. "Should we tell them about this?"

"They? Who?" The giant bear said in a low voice, "He already knew. He gave me the order to kill my teammates. Although he didn't say anything, I could feel his emotions."

At this time, a good news came in the headset, just hold on for three minutes.

The Spartan army was blocked by several powerful gods, but their crisis has been resolved. Bai Ling is chasing them, and Bai Xin and Zhang Wenbo are riding their flying swords and rushing towards this side at the fastest speed.

But facing this good news, the three of them acted as if they hadn't heard it, their eyes remained silent without a single wave of emotion. Because they were more than ten kilometers away from here, even if they flew, it would take several minutes. These few minutes were enough to ruin them.

"What a shame, you guys took so long to discuss."

Having run out of patience, Eos raised his arm and swung it down heavily again.

The densely packed God army on the ground began to move. Their charging footsteps were deafening, and the overwhelming sound of trampling came towards them.

The knight crouched slightly and held the shield upright in front of him. The two light-cast facial patterns on his cheeks lit up again, and a dazzling light burst out from his pupils. The brilliant golden light even overflowed from his pupils to both sides of his cheeks and floated in the air.

The holy light energy in the body had been consumed the moment before, and now it was consuming the life essence of the light-forged body.

The forest armor on the giant bear emitted a faint green fluorescence. She attached the last of her natural power to the armor, and there would be no more treatment from now on.

The two tanks moved, stood in front of the fragile priest, and faced the surging torrent head-on.

Xiaolin Daigo held the Angel's Staff in his hand and cast a shield of truth for each of them. But the next second, the white light on the angel's wings on the staff gradually dimmed, and even the simplest recovery spell could not be condensed.

The power of Holy Light was consumed too much, and because of the strict mission rules, he was not only healing his teammates. With the mentality of saving as many as possible, the injured soldiers were also very honored to be able to bathe in the Holy Light.

Three minutes, just hold on for three minutes, that’s enough!

"boom--"

A huge noise reached Kobayashi Daigo's eardrums, and the three of them were drowned by the tide of charging gods.

The two guardians didn't dare to go too far forward, as they had to protect the fragile healer well. So when the three were overwhelmed by the surging army, Hayato Hayama and Kasumigaoka protected Kobayashi Daigo in the middle, one on the left and one on the right.

The completely useless priest stood there at a loss. He wanted to help attack, but he didn't know how to start, and he was worried about causing trouble for them, so he could only stand there stupidly.

There were too many of them, densely packed enemies, all kinds of hideous faces, shrill screams and roars... crowded and chaotic.

The oppressive long sword stabbed at him, but the golden guardian of truth deflected it, and the spear of victory pierced the throat of the god's messenger. After quickly pulling it back, the spear swung violently, sweeping down groups of god's messengers. The left front view was slightly opened, and in an instant it was filled with dense murderous intent.

The battle axe chopped down from above, and the giant bear stood up. After using its left forearm to split the battle axe, its huge body stepped the messenger into the ground. Then, its sharp bear claws swept horizontally, and three sharp scarlet blood marks appeared in the air. The bodies of the three people in the front row were also broken into three pieces and collapsed.

The swords and axes came from all angles, but were all destroyed. The two men moved slowly around Xiaolin Daigo, and at the occasional critical moment, they staggered and changed positions in tacit understanding.

With this defense that has no blind spots, they always listed the uncle behind them as the most important defensive target. In addition to blocking and counterattacking, the two of them abandoned the instinct to dodge. Even when they were stabbed when they could not block, they did not avoid it at all.

However, there are too many enemies.

Gradually, the Shield of Truth also dissipated, and they began to get hurt. A deep crack appeared on the knight's shoulder armor, his shoulder blade was exposed to the air, and there was a long gap on his right rib. After fully activating his bloodline, his blood was golden.

The druid's body was shocking, with wet blood soaking his fur, making it look shiny and reflecting a dark red light.

Since she had no shield, she could only use her body armor or limbs to block. The blood all over her body seemed shocking, but with the giant bear's strong vitality and the blessing of flesh armor, she was actually much better than Hayato Hayama, but her body covered by hair was covered with wounds.

With two people providing absolute defense with no blind spots, even if the healer in the middle just stands there stupidly, he will not be hit by even a single blow.

The clashing of swords and sabers, the crisp sound of metal clashing, the dull sound of sharp blades tearing flesh and blood, the warm and wet feeling splashing on the cheeks, and the unique fishy smell of blood violently penetrated into the nostrils.

Covered by dense blades, their bodies seemed to be torn apart in the next second, but they were able to resolve the situation every time using their own fighting skills. Sometimes they even fought with intuition, blocking their weapons in the blind spot without even looking, and sure enough, a sharp sword swept over in the next second.

Kobayashi Daigo stared at all this in a daze. The strong oppression and visual impact almost made him feel suffocated.

So, is this the first-person perspective of a melee partner? It is so shocking, this kind of danger and passion is something I have never felt before.

He looked up at the sky, and Eos looked down on them. Because of Nyx's death, she was cautious and did not consider taking action at first. But now there was no need to take action, as she saw that the three of them were at the end of their strength.

"How ironic."

The uncle murmured softly, and said self-deprecatingly in a voice that only he could hear: "As a 33-year-old uncle, I need the protection of a 17-year-old classmate. It's really funny."

If Mika knew about this, she would definitely blame herself for being cowardly.

Suddenly, Kobayashi Daigo recalled the first time he entered the dungeon world. At that time, Yukinoshita's request was to split into several groups and go to different places to find the secret of Alessa, and he and the young couple were assigned to the school.

But when she reached the door, the girl suddenly became afraid and didn't want to go in.

I remember that I understood them and comforted them in a friendly way... What did I say? I don't remember.

I have even forgotten the names of the young couple. They both died in Silent Hill. The one who left a deep impression on me during that mission was the 15-year-old junior high school student Tomoki Sakurai.

"Maybe my job gives me courage. I've seen so much."

The uncle muttered to himself, and his eyes suddenly lit up. This was the sentence he used to respond to the girl who asked him if he was scared.

He raised his head, watching the thrilling scenes that were so close to him, and a warm smile spread across his lips as he watched his two companions fighting bloody battles. Then, he put the angel scepter in his hand into the ring and took out a very strange dagger.

This dagger has a very strange shape. It is S-shaped and dark blue. The blade is engraved with simple and mysterious runes. A very strange gem is inlaid at the joint of the handle. Why does it look so strange? Because this gem looks like an eye, and this eye that keeps turning is alive.

Suddenly, a cold and ominous aura emanated from the dagger, and a sharp and terrifying laugh sounded in my mind...

No, not just Kobayashi Daigo, but everyone, including Eos in the sky!

The world seemed to be paused, the noise of fighting stopped at this moment. Hayato Hayama and Shiwa turned their heads in shock, their eyes fixed on the dagger in Kobayashi Daigo's hand.

"Mind screaming, mass fear..." The druid murmured in fear, his voice trembling.

"Xal'atath...Blade of the Dark Empire..."

"Yes, it's the Blade of the Dark Empire."

The uncle smiled and nodded, "This artifact is very cheap. You all need an S card, but I only need a B card. Because it's cheap, it has a big disadvantage, and this disadvantage is fatal, so I didn't tell anyone."

His eyes changed. Dark blue threads danced wildly in his pupils, and then spread to occupy the entire eye socket in an instant.

Yes, Xal'atath, the most special artifact of the Priest of the Blade of the Dark Empire. There is a terrible ancient power stirring in it. Xal'atath is an extremely evil thing. She even has her own thoughts and is a self-aware dark weapon.

When Xiaolin Daigo exchanged the weapon and took it in his hand, its crazy whispers instantly swept through his brain. Inducement, threats, intimidation, abuse, derogation, disdain, lies... and endless, meaningless hums.

This sound made Xiaolin Daigo feel very dazed. He was stunned for at least ten minutes before he came to his senses. By the time he threw the dagger into the ring, he was sweating profusely.

Even Nefarian, the most powerful guardian of the earth, was driven crazy by the sound... This was the whisper of the Old Gods, and this dagger was a holy artifact of the cult to communicate with the Old Gods.

"No, no, uncle, don't do this."

Hayato Hayama's body began to tremble, and an intense fear occupied his mind. Even if he tried his best, he could not move at all... The mental scream released through the dagger was an indiscriminate control skill.

Azeroth's skills are ridiculous. In order to cater to "reality", some abilities are ridiculously weak, while some are strengthened countless times!

"My artifact is different from yours. Actually, I wanted to exchange it for 'Wrath of Light' or 'Naaru Beacon' at first. But they are too expensive and require S cards. Only this one is very cheap. As for the restrictions..."

The uncle's gentle smile turned dark, and the sacred light was gone, replaced by a dark blue, weird and terrifying aura. Only those who reach S level can tame her, or become her slave.

"what have you done!"

Eos's scream in the sky reached her ears, and she, who was filled with fear, finally lost her composure. The priest ignored her, but raised his dagger and whispered softly: "In fact, I don't lack courage, I'm just too 'weak'."

Hayato Hayama struggled desperately and even let out a low growl.

Shiyu quietly stared at the uncle... Suddenly, she suppressed the sadness in her heart and took a deep breath. She remembered the moving music that filled the lake that night, and his gentle face that was afraid of disturbing the sleeping animals.

He said that day that he was an undertaker, the person closest to death. In fact, priest was the most suitable job for him, the one closest to death, and the most noble and sacred.

He said that day that he always maintained an absolute fear of death. He had never killed anyone before. But he was willing to do it for his wife and daughter. So he did it now, for the most important partner, the younger generation.

Ye Shan was right, the classes in Azeroth would make people become immature, because each class had its own beliefs. As a priest, he even infected everyone.
