There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

Even in the game, perhaps in everyone's heart, the priest is an angel. They are always tense and use the power of holy light to heal the wounds of their comrades.

Without the priest, it means the prelude to the destruction of the group, so as long as the priest is still there, everyone will feel that there is still hope, just like angels are always by our side. Everyone will subconsciously protect them, just like when Kobayashi Daigo was at the end of his rope, Hayato Hayama and Shiyu stood in front of him.

At this moment, Shiyu thought of Beiyuankong's memory again. He had read a passage on the forum... There was a monologue of a pastor...

'A warm white light appeared on my hands again, and the feeling was so familiar, as if an angel was smiling at me. Standing at the end of the team, looking at the backs of my teammates, I always felt a little envious.

I am born weak, so I can't wield heavy weapons like a warrior, nor can I use powerful attack magic like a wizard. Maybe I am really weak, but looking at the surging monsters in front of me, I know that everyone still needs my support, so I will smile, smile, and protect everyone until the last moment. '

The gentle Uncle Kobayashi is not good at speaking, and he can't say much. But he always accompanies his teammates to fight to the end, even if he is hysterical and bleeding from all seven orifices. Standing behind him, you don't have to think about anything, just fight hard to kill the enemy.

Therefore, he still felt a little embarrassed after all. He was the oldest in the team, but he needed the protection of the younger generation. He was always well protected, even now he was behind the two younger generations.

He wanted to do more, wanted to do more for them.

"I have never been afraid since the first day I was chosen. I just can't do more for you. As an elder, I should take care of the younger generation. How can I hide behind you all the time... Xalatas?"

"No, you lowly bug, you don't deserve me!"

Suddenly, a piercing scream came from the dagger, shaking madly in an attempt to break free from its control. Too weak, this man was too weak to be used by Xal'atath.

"Let me be your slave. I am qualified."

But Uncle Kobayashi smiled and stabbed the dagger into his chest.

"boom--"

The wanton dark energy swept in and engulfed Kobayashi Daigo like a flame... The raging wind blew Hayato Hayama's hair, and the giant bear's hideous wounds appeared from under the hair.

Just three seconds later, Xiaolin Daigo floated in the air. In the shadow form, his body turned into a translucent dark blue, and turned into a dark and floating dark energy body...

Light and shadow are interdependent, and the opposite of light is darkness. Therefore, in addition to Discipline and Holy, the three talent branches of Azeroth priests also have a branch of Shadow Judgment... They are not the representatives of holiness, but shadow walkers who judge the evil in the world in the most extreme and terrifying way.

Even the Church concealed and denied their existence. When we were in the world of Azeroth, there were countless priests and doctors in the coalition forces of the Alliance and the Horde, but we didn't see even one shadow priest.

They abandon all reverence and pure holy light, and darkness forever covers their cold faces. They fight evil with evil and terror, and they are called "dark priests" for short.

"If you fail to understand the rules and forcibly drive the dark power... you will die, your spirit will be replaced by Xal'atath, and you will become her." Shiyu said in a trembling voice.

"Well, after I finish this..."

Kobayashi Daigo's voice also changed, and it sounded like a strange duet of a man and a woman. Because Xalatas was frantically trying to seize control of his body.

"After that, please kill... No, slave! You will pay the price for your deception and lies. Your companions, relatives, and everyone you know will become sacrifices!"

Kobayashi Daigo's body began to tremble. He suddenly bent down, held his head with both hands, and dug his fingertips into his eye sockets.

At this moment, Shiyu felt her body being restrained by something, and slowly rising into the air. It turned out that two balls of dark energy lifted her and Hayato Hayama up, and then slowly floated away.

The gods who were shocked by the psychic scream released by the artifact were finally able to move. They began to attack the priest in the shadow frantically...

But Xiaolin Daigo succeeded in temporarily suppressing Xal'atath. His body began to rise, and countless thick dark tentacles rose from the ground. They penetrated the soldiers' bodies and crushed their flesh and blood! The dark priest raised his palm, as if something dark was sprinkled from the sky.

Groups of gods' messengers on the ground began to scream and flee... Their bodies began to corrode rapidly, and the soul-devouring plague made them melt and become limp like human-shaped candles.

The corrupted wounds began to ooze pus, and disgusting dead maggots twisted their fat bodies on them, which was extremely horrifying.

The shadow priest was lifted up by the towering limbs and flew towards Eos. He pointed his finger, and a shrill scream roared out from the throat of the goddess of dawn. The vampire touch made her blood begin to wither, the vampire hug made her body shrink rapidly, and the mind explosion cruelly destroyed her soul.

A blue light gushed out from her fingertips, binding Eos like a continuous lightning bolt. Under the mental whip, her body began to twitch, and even a blue shadow separated from her body, struggling madly.

Plague, disease, corruption and torture, this is the power of S-level...

Energy spread out, and a sense of groundedness came from the soles of her feet. Shiyu, who was already hundreds of meters away, transformed into a human form, staring blankly at the scene of slaughter and torture... Plague and disaster spread to the world, and fear was everywhere.

In fact, angels were created to scare away evil spirits. Their original image was actually indescribably horrible. It was people in later generations who processed them into a sacred image with wings on their backs.

In fact, demons are beautiful and attractive, because they need a beautiful appearance to confuse and deceive people.

An indescribable creature covered with tentacles, each tentacle has a sharp mouthpart and countless eyes. That horrible monster is the true face of an angel!

Suddenly, she remembered the words that Kitahara Sora had read before...

Facing the surging monsters, he couldn't help his teammates kill the enemies, but he was always behind everyone. Even if his face was pale, even if he reached his limit and couldn't even gather a recovery spell, he would still smile and protect everyone until the last moment.

But even if angels look extremely ugly, they are still sacred guardians, just like the dark priest whose body has begun to twist and disgusting and terrifying tentacles have grown on his face.

Hayato Hayama's eyes were red as he stared at the sick uncle. Is it worth it?

What makes it worthwhile is not who he is fighting against, but who he is doing it for.

This time he helped, at the cost of his own life.

Chapter 58: Athena

The winged Pegasus is the gods' unique 'power device', and if Zeus also has a chariot, he is probably no exception.

This period was the embryonic stage of civilization. People lacked knowledge and were short-sighted, even the gods were the same. They believed that the most impressive vehicle was a chariot pulled by pegasus, and the most powerful weapons were cold weapons. The only long-range weapons were bows, crossbows, catapults, etc.

Naval ships were mainly powered by manpower, and artillery had not yet been invented. Battles at sea were mainly boarding battles or ramming and sinking the opposing ship.

When Kitahara Sora decided to rescue Prometheus and flew towards the cage, the most mysterious goddess took the initiative to find him and invited him to go with her in her chariot.

The real Caucasus Mountains are located in the Eurasian continent, separated from Greece by the 460,000 square kilometers of the Black Sea. Although the world map has changed, it is still not reachable by flying in just one or two hours.

Almost a day has passed now. Beiyuan Kong, standing on the chariot, has a blank expression on his face, and his cold eyes are fixed on the sea level in front of him.

Uncle Araki died, Uncle Kobayashi died, and two regular team members died in one mission, which had never happened before. They were not facing other teams, but just because of the two goddesses with A-level combat power ratings, even the Thor team hadn't made a move yet!

Through Shiyu's vision, Kitahara Sora almost gnashed his teeth as he watched Araki Tsukasa's soul being swallowed by the black fog. However, before he could catch his breath, another Eos came!

Unexpectedly, Uncle Xiaolin secretly exchanged for a Dark Empire Blade and forced the Shadow Priest talent to be activated at the last minute. In the end, he completely lost his mind and became a puppet of the ancient gods.

After he killed all the gods and Eos, he was completely twisted, like a servant of Cthulhu, with disgusting tentacles all over his face, and his whole body became indescribable.

When Bai Xin arrived, he was chasing Shiyu and Hayama Hayato. Even if they joined forces, they were not sure they could kill him. In the end, Bai Xin called her sister.

Thinking of the uncle's appearance, Kitahara Sora trembled all over. He usually didn't talk much, but he always played the most crucial role. The team was already accustomed to his presence.

I was used to him standing behind me, and I was used to having my body covered by the light of the Shield of Truth at the critical moment. I was used to having a pair of white wings grow out of my back and being pulled to the safest place when my life was hanging by a thread.

Even if it was me, I would always shout "Dawu, heal me!" in almost every mission.

Such a warm person, but in the end he turned into a Cthulhu-style monster! I can't accept it, I really can't accept it. But if he doesn't do this, Shiyu and Ye Shan can't hold on until Bai Xin arrives.

Bei Yuankong's eyes were filled with discontent, and the overwhelming hatred he exuded even made the Pegasus galloping in front of him tremble. Although he had made preparations for reducing the number of people, he still couldn't control his emotions when the time came. It was impossible to control his emotions.

Beside him, a graceful goddess was driving the chariot silently. She was none other than the goddess of wisdom and war, Athena, who was blessed with many halos.

The name of this goddess is almost a household name. Whenever Greek mythology is mentioned, the first name that comes to people's mind is Athena or Zeus. Perhaps because of the anime called "Saint Seiya", her popularity in the eyes of young people once overshadowed Zeus.

Athena is very young and extremely beautiful. She has long light golden hair and deep blue eyes, which gives her a wise and intellectual beauty.

The chariot was speeding in the air, and the pure white cloak inlaid with gold was fluttering behind it. The beautiful face was soft and pure, and there was a hint of heroic spirit between the brows.

Athena wore a golden helmet with a headband on her head, and her long straight hair extended from the back of her head to her back. The golden armor on her body was segmented, with a golden skirt armor on her sexy waist under the breastplate, and a pair of metal shin armor below the absolute domain.

The skirt armor is very short, if I have to make an analogy, it's like a golden version of a JK short skirt, and the shin armor looks like long boots.

While being solemn, it also showcases the feminine beauty, and matched with her heroic temperament, it is revealing but not lewd, and instead gives people a sense of sacredness.

Athena is the goddess of virginity and the patron saint of unmarried girls, so there is still a hint of childishness on her face. This contrast is very similar to that of Yukino now. Both are seventeen-year-old girls, and both have a temperament that other girls cannot possess.

This outfit is the embodiment of her war godhood and is quite conservative compared to other goddesses, but from Kitahara Sora's modern eyes, it looks cool and stunning.

It’s just that the style, design, and aesthetic... are very much like the work of modern artists in games.

A few hours ago, they were still talking happily, but when something unexpected happened, Beiyuan Kong's expression immediately became gloomy. Athena could sense his emotions, so she tactfully ended the conversation.

During the most serious thirty minutes, she even felt that this human would not be able to resist drawing his sword against her because of the hatred in his heart.

"What else did Apollo foresee?"

Kitahara Sora spoke abruptly. He turned his head and looked at the goddess of wisdom beside him. "For example, about the evolution of the ending or something."

Athena also turned her head and looked back at Beiyuan Kong, and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "He has never foreseen the end of anyone, and the direction of this war is also obscured by the thick fog."

Beiyuan Kong took a deep breath and was silent for a while before he said softly: "Your best choice is to stand on the same side with Zeus."

Athena was startled, and also lowered her head slightly and fell silent. She could feel the hatred emanating from him a few hours ago, the hatred towards the gods, because two of his companions were killed by Nyx and Eos.

But he took the initiative to speak at this time, which showed that he suppressed his inner anger, so Athena opened her cherry-colored lips and said, "Destiny."

"destiny?"

"destiny."

The goddess sighed, "I have been observing your movements since the first day you came to our world, because I have been observing Perseus's movements. His prophetic trajectory was modified before you entered, and Apollo could no longer see the future trajectory clearly. Therefore, I did not show up, but observed you carefully."

Kitahara Sora frowned slightly. She had mentioned this shortly after they met, which also indicated that this world had actually deviated from the trajectory of the movie plot from the very beginning.

Athena would help Perseus slay Medusa, and then she would ask for her head back to be mounted on her shield.

The reality is that, although Medusa's head was still embedded in her shield in the end, she gave the weapon to Perseus and she did not appear, she was just observing.

Apollo only made a prophecy, but the goddess of wisdom Athena was the one who really thought. She observed Beiyuan Kong all the way, from full of hostility at the beginning to astonishment and shock.

Then, she saw weapons she had never seen before, and inexplicable high-tech equipment. Those equipment and weapons were not blessed by divine power, but the power they exerted was no less than that of divine weapons.

From the long-distance sniping with the Cross Falcon to the various explosives. Then there was the battle between Kitahara Sora and the stick. Along the way, Athena's worldview was refreshed.

What does it mean to have your worldview changed for the omniscient and omnipotent God? For the first time, Athena felt fear, a fear that went beyond the death of Poseidon.

In fact, after Kitahara Sora left, Athena appeared at the place where he and Shiyu were talking, lingered and thought, and even picked up the half bottle of drink and half piece of bread left by Shiyu and put them in her mouth.

The syrup was so sweet, countless times sweeter than the juice squeezed from Gaia's orchard. The bread was so soft and mixed with several flavors. She picked up the meat floss on the bread and examined it carefully, but after looking at it for a long time she still had no idea what it was.

These people do not have godhood, but they have the same abilities as gods, and even their powers surpass most gods. Many gods cannot transform at will, nor can they take items from the void.

Countless questions troubled the goddess of wisdom. She began to ponder, to guess, and to think...but the more she thought about those things, the weirder they became. She also became more and more scared. It seemed that there was some kind of non-existent thing that intimidated her soul.

Athena told herself that it might be dangerous to continue thinking about it, and she couldn't continue to speculate. But she knew the danger, but she couldn't stand it at all. She was the goddess of wisdom, representing omniscient knowledge.

As a result, Athena dared not show up even more. As for the destruction of her own temple, it was actually not important to her at that time.

Later, she remembered Gaia's prophecy long ago and her mother who was swallowed by Zeus. Perhaps the world was about to change.

Then, another group of outsiders came to the temple, and they would help Zeus deal with this disaster. The people who had been observing sneaked into Gaia's orchard, and the outsiders who arrived at the temple surrounded and killed them...

In fact, everyone guessed wrong. Athena did not intend to betray from the beginning, and Gaia did the same. She even conveyed the news of the invaders to Zeus as soon as possible.

But then the performance of the Homelander was really excellent, and his brutal behavior shocked Gaia. And his subsequent obscene and evil behavior towards the statue even made Gaia feel absurd. She was sure that there was no creature with his thoughts in the whole of Greece.

In the face of all this, although Zeus showed great rage, he only punished him afterwards.

The most important thing is that Gaia saw the dream that Shiyu wove for her people, heard what she said, and also experienced the "perfect" ordinary life of her people. This is what made them make up their minds after they were hesitating.

They came from another world, where there were no gods, and mortals learned their own skills. There was no god to steal fire for them, nor was there any god to teach them survival skills. Their most advanced skills were invented by ancient humans themselves.

Gaia told Athena all this, and when Athena found out, her mind exploded. All her previous doubts seemed to be cleared up, and it seemed that more secrets emerged for her to discover.

Gods exist in fantasy, God does not exist!

Another world, Eurasia, America, Antarctica, the Arctic, various races, ancient Greek civilization, hot weapons, technology, and non-existent gods.

The embodiment of wisdom seemed to be stupid, and thought of an extremely ridiculous question that would be treated as a joke in real life.

Who am I? Why was I born? What is my future? What is the truth of the world? What is the so-called God? Is it the observer they mentioned?

Was I born just to bring blessings to mortals? Why should I do this? Who asked me to do this? How did I know everything? Knowledge, art, farming and weaving... Everything seemed to be engraved in my mind since birth.

Who taught me all this?

Since they are all skills, why is it that everything I know seems to be superb, but to those people it is just the most primitive and basic, or even eliminated things? Why can't I understand their technology?

If someone has engraved these things into his brain, then why not just pass on the ultimate technology to himself? It turns out that the era in which the gods lived was the 'ancient times'.

It seems that as the goddess of wisdom, I have never thought about these questions, and I have never even had any awareness of this aspect. In my cognition, Zeus is the master, and the gods are the masters.

But now, there are things in the world that even God cannot understand.

They don't think about the composition of the world, the origin, or how Gaia, the mother of the gods, was born. Everything is "honestly" performing its duties.

Athena thought of the word "fate" and what her fate would be. She should stand on Zeus' side and help the gods solve this crisis and make the gods immortal.

What is the fate of the gods, what is the most crucial secret of the outsiders, what is the secret of the world? What is your own destiny?

……

“The word destiny only appears in mortals, but this is the first time I feel that gods also have destiny.”

Athena suddenly took a deep breath, "Just as Poseidon's fate is to perish, so is the fate of Nyx and Eos. I am certain that if I defy prophecy, my fate will also be to perish, and Apollo has successfully confirmed this."
