You are very strong, but my painting style is better than yours!

To put it bluntly, she couldn't bear to see her companion being defeated.

After all, unlike Iori, she didn't know the "script": to unlock the final legacy of the [Golden Clan], all five hero clans were indispensable.

"Don't worry, it's not over yet."

While adjusting her posture in mid-air, Iori activated [The Boy of Destiny], shrinking in size and summoning a white horse to ride beneath her.

"You are guilty!"

The white horse carried Iori, transforming into a streak of light and fire. Ermandes had no time to stop her and could only watch helplessly as Iori charged into the center of the energy storm and confronted Otemia.

A dazzling golden light emanated from Iori, manifesting as countless sharp longswords. These swords, arranged like a sword array beneath the starry sky, blocked all of Atenmia's escape routes. Each sword revealed the source of the Hero Clan's sins—they were once celebrated heroes, but in their indulgence, they allowed their anger to consume them, wildly destroying their home planet and causing the entire universe to weep.

Although this is not a "golden sword" aimed at gods, it possesses a special attack attribute against "evil," and all existing hero races are under its blade!

For Autenmia, this moment undoubtedly marked the arrival of his own sword of Damocles!

puff!puff!puff!

Even though Autenmia tried to dodge, the blade still pierced his body, as if it had been locked onto him from the very beginning.

The heroes who were hit began to move slowly, and their energy output dropped sharply. Iori should have pressed his advantage, but instead suddenly pulled on the reins, and the white horse neighed and turned back.

—Elmandes was taken aback!

Unable to dodge in time, the hero who manipulated time was enveloped by the sun's heat and turned into a scorching meteor that flew backward.

Why was it so passive even though it was two against one? - Lecty gritted her teeth, feeling utterly perplexed.

This is not surprising. Although heroes generally have overpowered physiques and bug-like abilities, Iori is just as good in terms of stats and has an even better mechanism.

The most crucial point is that the two Nodos were completely unaware of Iori's methods, but Iori knew what attributes they were.

"Descend, chakra of judgment!"

Iori seized the opportunity and arrived in front of Ottemi almost instantly, unleashing his white horse to strike her.

Light and heat alone cannot threaten Autenmia, but the White Horse is the embodiment of Veleslana in mythology, used to punish sinners. Now, in its youthful form, it can unleash its maximum power, which Autenmia cannot resist.

He was engulfed in flames, his entire body glowing crimson, as if brimming with energy, and he was unable to dissipate the surrounding fire for a long time.

In that frozen moment, Iori brought down the God of Salvation Blade. The blade, powerful enough to easily cleave continental plates, was blocked just short of reaching his chest, its defensive power comparable to that of a planet itself. However, at that moment, the shelled creature's core suddenly overloaded, making it difficult for Ortemia to retaliate. This was the backlash of their sins in destroying their mother planet; the searing heat seemed to reach the very depths of their souls!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Iori unleashed his final killing move, gripping the Ama-no-Murakumo sword with both hands—

The timeline jumps again!

Once again, they had fallen behind Austria. Iori turned her head and looked back, only to find that Elmandes had already reunited with Austria.

"Time-related stuff~"

Without hesitation, Iori continued to wield the Savior Blade.

The Heroes race has incredible stamina, capable of fighting continuously for dozens or even hundreds of hours, making it extremely difficult to kill them in a head-on confrontation.

However, Iori is also very patient—his stamina is practically limitless, making him the least afraid of a war of attrition.

As the sword fell, a dark rift was cleaved in the void, and the two heroes were on high alert.

...This fierce battle, which lasted for twenty-seven minutes, left wounds on Iori's body more than once, but they were mostly healed in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, Ottemia and Elmandes, despite their cooperation, remained passive and were in much worse condition than Iori.

Especially Elmandes, in order to increase her margin for error, she has repeatedly jumped through time, and now has accumulated ten timelines. According to her estimate, as long as thirteen timelines are "severed", the backlash will be enough to render Elmandes unable to recover... which is already quite dangerous.

Autenmia, on the other hand, was entirely crimson, and its surface armor began to mutate, showing a tendency towards chaotic development...

"End the fight!"

Lekti closed her eyes and spoke to the Silver Clan warship on the other side of the void.

"If this continues, this entire galaxy will be destroyed!"

"..."

No answer.

Is this what you wanted?

Lekti frowned. "Even if we defeat this man, what good will it do? The Silver Clan won't gain anything from it. Humans have already found their Nodos. You can't suppress the Iron Clan forever..."

hum!

In response, a mental projection appeared in front of Lecti, a young man with short silver hair.

"The Nodos of the Dark Iron Clan must be reclaimed and placed under the management of the Silver Clan."

"……what?"

Lecty pursed her lips. "This is the choice of the [Golden Clan]. Are you going to interfere and deny it?"

"The Golden Race has abandoned this universe."

The young man said dismissively, "We are the rulers of the universe now, both in the past and in the future. Moreover... the Dark Iron are a race dominated by chaotic emotions. Their acquisition of the power of Nodos will only bring disaster to the stars. If you want to stop the war, you must extinguish their hopes now."

"Can we do it?"

"Udila,"

The young man said coldly, "She has also been summoned."

"no!"

Lekti strongly objected: "There are already two Heroes on the battlefield, and one remains on the planet's surface. If we send Yudi here as well... her abilities are too dangerous!"

"Then you must take action now."

Because of the timeline jump, there aren't many battle records from the Silver Clan's perspective. They don't know that even the two Hero Clan members were on the defensive against Iori, and they only thought that Lecti and the other Nodos had good intentions and couldn't scare the humans to death.

This is quite common for them. Previously, when the Silver Clan asked them to punish certain targets, Aotianmia often slacked off.

Ultimately, the Golden Clan chose hosts who disliked fighting and were gentle by nature in order to punish the Hero Clan.

"Now, execute the command."

The silver-haired youth pointed to the planet Oron: "There is a fifth Nodos contractor there. You must destroy the planet and the Black Iron race on it!"

"Varied--"

“Autemia can do it easily; according to the contract, you have no right to refuse.”

"Well!"

Lecty wanted to argue further, but Autenmia, who had also received a telepathic connection, reacted immediately.

The crustacean's body suddenly curled into a ball, and dense energy patterns appeared on its surface.

"An extraordinary energy reaction has been detected!"

On the Uranus, even with planetary-level conceptual defenses, Alpha and the others felt their hearts pounding and immediately started the engines to speed away from the battlefield.

"Your energy level has exceeded the critical threshold, Lord Aizen. I suggest you immediately—"

Before the words were even finished, the core of Autenmia burst forth with a white light brighter than a star!

However, this attack was not aimed at the planet Oron, but instead went straight for Iori!

It seems that Nodos of Ortemcia is quite adaptable. Unwilling to destroy the planet, he turned his attention to Iori—which is much sturdier than the planet.

With a thought, Iori immediately deployed the giant outline of Susanoo as a shield, and then he was blown away by the shockwave.

Through the gradually shattering purple energy skeleton, he saw the white light spread across everything, and even the aftershocks penetrated the atmosphere of the planet below!

The surface of the planet Oron is like clay kneaded by the gods. The continental plates are falling apart in the torrent of energy. The deserts are evaporated, ionized, crystallized, and then turned into charcoal, just like the ocean. The crust peels off piece by piece like a broken eggshell.

Even though Aotianmia has made some adjustments, the full force of the Hero Race is not something that ordinary planets can withstand, especially this one, which is most skilled in firepower output!

The magic within Iori's body surged wildly, and his materialized soul body maintained its form amidst the turbulent energy currents, yet he still felt an indescribable pressure. Had his physical strength been even slightly weaker, he would have been on the verge of death.

"To think it could reach this level..."

Iori frowned and coughed twice. He saw that the remains of Autenmia were absorbing the heat around them. The shattered carapace was regenerating at a visible speed, and the number of eyes had increased significantly.

——Frenzy!

The higher the degree of physical mutation, the closer the Hero race is to berserk mode!

No wonder it caught him off guard:

Autenmia's stats have increased significantly again!

"This planet... is too late."

Lecty looked down at the crumbling Oron and shook her head sadly.

If it were a complete star, it might have escaped this calamity, but Oron, already on the verge of destruction, was far too fragile to withstand even the aftershocks. Ultimately, he and Autenmia could not avoid the fate of destroying the star...

"The Dark Iron Clan above must also be... The only one who could survive should be Nodos."

Just as she was feeling extremely sad, a tall, dark blue figure suddenly flew out from the shattered core of the planet.

Robust!

Sturdy!

powerful!

overbearing!

Its joints are inlaid with dark jade, and it is now frantically absorbing energy from the void, causing its body to constantly mutate.

too fast!

No one could have predicted it, and no one could have reacted in time. By the time they realized it, they had already crashed into Autenmia, and the Hero Clan, with their infinite energy, were blasted away like children!

The energy tides along the way were swept into a vacuum by the pure force aftershocks—this was pure brute force!

Austrian Mia flew hundreds of thousands of meters before barely managing to stop thanks to the energy recoil.

"stop!"

In her shock, Lecty hurriedly summoned Elmandes, trying to stop the heroes from rushing into the battlefield.

Because she sensed that this new comrade in front of her was in a state of frenzy from the very beginning!

"Could it be... that this planet is important to him? Stop him, Elmandes!"

"That won't work."

As soon as Lekti made her move, time jumped back to the moment when the dark blue hero race had just rushed out, and Iori had already blocked Lekti's path, preemptively preventing Ermondes from making a move.

"Iori!"

"An eye for an eye."

He smiled maliciously: "Didn't you have a lot of fun before?"

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!!"

The thunderous sound shook even the spatial rifts. The dark blue giant caught up with Ortemia, his knuckles wreathed in dazzling energy like that of a star. He reached out and grabbed Ortemia's head, crushing it in his palm like a walnut.

The enormous jade pendant at the waist of the Dark Hero Clan lit up, drawing in all the heat and transforming it into pure power within his body. He raised his right fist, which was covered in a thin layer of light, and before the fist even touched Ortemia, spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the space where the latter was located.

Iori saw it clearly. With the [Wisdom of the Sky] operating at full speed, he understood the essence of that punch—it wasn't a simple physical impact, but rather a direct embodiment of the concept of "destruction," directly pulverizing all the matter it touched at the atomic level!

The dark blue-black hero's hand clenched into a fist—

boom! ! ! !

Chapter 530 Why are all time-based bosses so reckless?

The planetary fragments disintegrated in the energy turbulence, and the dark blue giant named "Belcros" was the last of the Heroes. His bone armor covering his entire body had an obsidian-like luster, and his skin was like bronze. He looked like a huge ancient Greek statue.

At this moment, his fist was covered with scarlet lines. This giant, who was taller than the mobile suit, clenched his fist with one hand, and space shattered. The impact extended to the distant asteroid belt—the result of the bombardment from Ortemia earlier.

He seemed to be trying to hold onto something, but this action only made the planet Oron more broken. He hesitated for a moment, then his body trembled, and finally he couldn't help but roar in anger.

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!!"

This is not a normal sound wave; it is the space itself that is vibrating, sending the surrounding debris and flames flying and creating a huge vacuum, just like an eye staring directly into the void.

The next moment, his entire body began to accelerate. Without any external propulsion, he directly traversed the vacuum realm at a speed that almost defied the laws of physics, even surpassing the speed of Autenmia, which could be converted into energy.

Within the burst of pitch-black beam was a fist filled with rage, a pure physical strike that landed on the already stunned Autenmia's chest, sending him flying another 100,000 kilometers!

The hero's breastplate cracked with spiderweb patterns, and one of its eyes was blown off, exposing the flesh and blood beneath the armor.

But the next moment, a red light flashed across these muscles and blood vessels, and they healed and proliferated abnormally at a rapid pace—the berserk state had begun!
