Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 84: ·The fire will not extinguish, the heart will not die (Part 2)
In the center of the hall under the temple, on the hilt of the Holy Avenger, there was a flame that was so weak that it seemed to extinguish at any time.
But it's just such a small flame, but it exudes tenacity, protecting all the light **** in the center of the hall, and firmly resisting the lawful evil that pervades the entire world.
It can even separate a little aftermath, enveloping only the ruined temple on the ground, so that even Sui Xiong, who transcends attributes and rules, did not notice the existence here at first.
Sui Xiong flew carefully in front of the flame, lest he tried too hard to extinguish it.
In the flames, he saw the figure of a pig head. This pighead was old and ugly, skinny, as if there was only a layer of skin wrapped around the skeleton, which was terrifying. But even so, it can be seen that his face is full of pain, and he is obviously enduring great pain.
His body is trembling, but he is leaning on a crutches, trying to make himself stand up straight so that he won't lose his balance due to pain and fall to the ground.
It took several seconds for Sui Xiong to recognize this pighead.
He is the latest deity promoted by Sui Xiong, and is nicknamed the "salt-eating pig" salt-making god, Fera Kenji.
Sui Xiong is not surprised at all that Fella Kenji will appear in the last battle against the "New Order" of the Lord of Radiance. He believes in his subordinate's loyalty to him. But he was wondering, why would Fera Kenji stand in the flames, like fuel?
Those other gods, where did they go?
Sui Xiong felt that he had almost guessed the answer, but he would rather guess the wrong one himself.
He stretched out his tentacles tremblingly, and reached into the flames.
A familiar force swept in, brave, firm, bright, loyal, and never surrendered.
Of course he knows where this power comes from. This is Leon’s power. Although it is much stronger than the demigod Leon in his impression, the essence has not changed.
Along with this power is a wonderful power. The nature of this power is similar to that of the Lord of Order, and it should have been left by the Lord of Order, but it is already very weak, and it doesn't have any mentality, just unconsciously operating in a predetermined way. It constantly draws strength from the flames, and then transforms it to radiate it out to maintain the enchantment around the temple and prevent the "new order" from destroying the last shelter of the "old order" and completely erasing it. The last trace.
When Sui Xiong stretched his tentacles into the flames, the wonderful power immediately entangled him, trying to draw power from him to transform it into the power to maintain the barrier.
The way to draw is to burn.
If Sui Xiong wants to, he can certainly prevent his tentacles from burning. But not only did he not stop it, but instead transmitted a lot of power, causing the flame that was about to go out to ignite all at once, illuminating the entire hall.
Under the light of the fire, murals appeared on the walls around the hall. Sui Xiong saw these murals very familiarly, and they were a long scroll of narrative. Sui Xiong's thoughts were swept away, and he figured out the whole content-this long scroll recorded the resistance of the "old order" to the "new order".
As Sui Xiong guessed, after Sui Xiong fell into the main plane with the Kingdom of God, he was sent to the Lord of the Most Good, and the Kingdom of God was split and built on the basis of Void City. A position to resist the Lord of Radiance.
After a while, the Lord of Order lost to the Lord of Radiance and retreated to the Void City. In that battle, he had a sense of understanding, relying on this position built on the basis of the "shelter", finally resisted the Lord of Glory and barely maintained the situation.
To be honest, if the Lord of Radiance really makes an all-out effort, even if the Lord of Order adds this position, plus the gods who rushed to help, it will probably be unstoppable. But no one knows why, the Lord of Radiance drifted away after an attack to no avail, did not appear here again, and personally launched even one attack on the Nether City defense line.
But this does not mean that he has let everyone go. With the transformation of the world order, Void City has gradually become incompatible with the whole world. In order to maintain the existence of the defensive position, the gods thought of many ways and spent a lot of divine power, but still could not support it. In the end, the line of defense had to retreat and retreat until the core of the kingdom of God, Sui Xiong’s "computer" was used as the material. And the temple built.
Back here, there is really nowhere to go. A large number of mortals are sealed in the underground hall, and they are incompatible with the new era, and there is no way to survive under this so-called "new order". And the gods who have fled here one after another can't adapt to the frenzied "new order" of the Lord of Radiance. They have no choice but to fight to the end.
Seeing despair, Leon, who had become the "Patron saint of the Void City" at the time, stepped forward.
He discussed with the Lord of Order for a long time, and finally found a solution to the problem.
Leon inserted his divine sword in the hall, and then the Lord of Order abandoned his rationality and turned himself into a strange flame. The flame itself is weak, but it can transform any fuel in it into a powerful force to maintain the guardian temple and reject the enchantment eroded by the "new order".
And the first deity to jump into the flames and become fuel was Leon. He ignited himself, turning his body, soul, divinity, godhead and even existence itself... everything into fuel, igniting a bright flame like the sun.
With this flame, the temple was finally guarded. Although the gods were sad at the fall of the Lord of Order and the patron saint of Void City, they were finally relieved.
However, the power of the flame is not eternal. As the days pass, the flame weakens day by day. Gradually, it is no longer enough to protect the temple.
When the flame was about to extinguish, the **** of justice Yorgardeman jumped into the flame, turned into fuel, and replaced the burnt-out Leon, continuing to guard the temple and guarding everyone's last hope.
Then, one after another, gods became fuel. There are also some gods, evil gods, and demigods who cannot bear this bleak death, and would rather rush out and fight to death... The last one to become the fuel is the weakest salt-making **** among the remaining gods, Fira ·Kenkey.
On the scroll, there are many gods leaving their last words before jumping into the flame~IndoMTL.com~ And at the end of the scroll, it is the last words of Fira Kenki:
I'm Fera Kenji, a pighead with no abilities. Only by the ingenious invention and the promotion of His Majesty the Lord of the Void, I was lucky enough to become a **** and gain immortality. Many people say that maybe I am the weakest **** in the world.
In a while, I will follow my companions and become a part of the flame, trying to use my insignificant power to guard this place and the last position of our "old order".
I don’t think that what we agree with and insist on is old and wrong, nor do my companions. Everyone becomes a flame, not to fight for victory, but to work hard to protect our final dignity, to protect those who are willing to believe in us and stand with us until the end.
Maybe our flame will eventually go out, and the people we want to protect will also die, but we struggled to the last moment, no matter the enemy or death, we never let us bow our heads.
The reason why life is noble is not the strength of strength or the height of the godhead, but the courage to face the enemy and face death. I'm not sure if these scrolls can be passed on, but I believe that even under the insidious and cruel "new order", there must be someone with such courage, in despair, in the face of death, blooming the noblest of life attitude!
Finally, may our Majesty the Lord of the Void return; may this scroll record our final attitude and determination and dedicate it to you; may you defeat the supreme villain and restore the world to right direction.
We can't wait for you to come back, but we will always bless you.
The flame we have turned into may be extinguished; but our mood of blessing you will always exist!
