Saint Seiya: This Gemini is a bit of a trap.

"I……"

Just as Milo and his companions were hesitating, Aiolos walked over.

"Garon, you think you can get a loaf of bread by jumping into your dimensional vortex?"

"good."

"Count me in! Saga and I are tied and neither of us got anything to eat, so let me experience the power of another dimension!"

After Aiolos finished speaking, he picked up a piece of bread and headed towards the dimensional vortex. However, when he saw the timid and hesitant appearance of Milo and the other three, he stopped and glared at them with contempt.

"Article Nine of the Sanctuary Code of Conduct states that His Holiness the Pope said the spirit of the Saint Seiya is one of fearlessness. Saint Seiya must even have the courage to throw a punch at the gods in the Holy War! How can you cowards be Saint Seiya?"

After saying that, Aiolos didn't even look at the four of them, and leaped into the dimensional vortex.

The remaining four, including Milo, looked at each other, then turned to look at Jia Long with suspicion in their eyes.

"Why are you looking at me? He's really not a shill I hired."

Jia Long said innocently.

He didn't expect Aiolos to come, and even more so, to be so brave. He truly deserves to be called a man who dares to carry the holy sword with his own body!

"Garon, you think you can get a loaf of bread by jumping into your dimensional vortex?"

Just as Jia Long was feeling sentimental, another voice rang out, and it was none other than Saga.

"Hey! Saga, what are you doing here?"

Jia Long coughed lightly and casually handed over a piece of black bread:

"Take it and get out of here, don't disturb my business."

There's nothing I can do; they're brothers, after all.

Saga, on the other hand, didn't stand on ceremony. He took the bread and left, not forgetting to nod politely to Milo and the other three before he left.

However, Milo and his companions did not respond politely.

Because of Saga's meddling, only three loaves of bread remained in front of them.

Three loaves of bread, four people...

In an instant, Milo, who reacted the fastest, grabbed a piece of bread and jumped into the other dimension without even saying hello to Camus and the others.

"This guy beat me to it!"

Camus and Shura were a step too slow. They rushed over, grabbed the bread, and jumped into the dimensional vortex without saying a word, chasing after Milo's retreating figure.

"Shouldn't ladies go first?"

In an instant, all that remained before Jia Long was Aphrodite, who was on the verge of tears.

“These three bastards have no manners whatsoever! I hope you're all teleported to a cesspool! Um... Galon, you still have half a loaf of bread, how about..."

"roll!"

"Fine, get out then! You stingy bastard, who wants your lousy bread? I'll just go back and eat roses!"

Aphrodite left in a huff.

Jia Long didn't bother with Aphrodite's resentment at all. After he left, he waved his hand to put away the dimensional vortex and then hummed a little tune as he waited expectantly.

"This is a huge harvest! Aldebaran, Shaka, Aiolos, Milo, Camus, Shura, plus Deathmask and Saga from before, the Zodiac is almost complete."

"Oh right, there's also Xue Du, but he doesn't count; he's just a freebie."

Time passed by minute by minute.

Ten minutes later, Xue Du was the first to be carried back by the guards, followed by Aldebaran.

Another half hour passed, and Aiolos, Milo, Camus and the others returned to the canyon one after another.

Fortunately, none of them were teleported to the cesspool, otherwise Jalon would have made another enemy. Of course, this also shows that Deathmask's luck is indeed unique.

The entire Holy Domain was like a secluded little world, extremely vast in area. Yet, such a large place was paradoxically transported to this tiny, cesspool-like place.

Jia Long believed that this was definitely the goddess's blessing!

"It's time to go see the Mirror of Time."

Chapter 15 Black Smash! The Lament of Shattered Stars

With his eyes closed, Jia Long's consciousness entered the dimensional space and arrived in front of the Realm of Time and Space.

"Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most handsome man in the world?"

After the usual communication, the mirror shimmered, revealing a row of little fighters.

Saga, Deathmask, Seido, Aldebaran, Shaka...

There were a total of nine mirror images. Just as Jia Long had predicted, he had almost completely wiped out the first tier in just one day, leaving only Mu, Aiolia, and Aphrodite as the three who had slipped through the net.

Who should we choose today?

With so many mirrors, Jia Long found it difficult to choose.

These nine young warriors, apart from the gift Xue Du, the other eight are all future Gold Saints, each with their own strengths, and their insights are very attractive to Jia Long.

After all, we can learn from others' experiences!

After thinking it over, Jia Long suppressed his curiosity and still chose Deathmask, intending to squeeze out all his remaining value before choosing the next one.

"Come out, Deathmask!"

Deathmask appeared, and Jia Long, familiar with the place, went to meet him: "Die!"

Jia Long knew Deathmask's methods all too well, and defeated him in no time, blasting him to pieces.

As fragmented insights flew out, Deathmask's disintegrated body was also collected by the Dimensional Spacetime and reassembled into a complete mirror image.

However, when Jia Long summoned him again, his body had become somewhat transparent.

"continue!"

After half an hour.

When Deathmask's body collapsed for the Nth time, this time there was no enlightenment whatsoever. His entire body dissipated into pure energy and was absorbed into the realm of space and time.

Then, the entire mirror surface shone with a dazzling light, and under the reflection of the mirror light, the dimensional space where Jia Long stood actually became larger.

This tiny dimensional space originally only covered an area of ​​seven or eight meters.

Now, with the reflection of the mirror, the dimensional space has increased to about ten meters.

"The dimensional space has increased, and it seems to be more stable. Hmm, Deathmask's mirror image is more effective than the Spartan City's candidate fighters."

Jia Long was already used to changes in dimensional space. Over the past year, whenever he had completely destroyed a mirror image, such changes would occur.

And that is the ultimate purpose of a mirror!

Simply put, as long as Jia Long continues to destroy the mirror image, the energy emanating from it will strengthen the dimensional space. Once Jia Long can materialize this dimensional space into reality, it will be his…

Another dimension!

Moreover, it's an enhanced version of an alternate dimension with a time-space mirror!

……

Victory brings insights.

Losing helps you hone your skills.

Disappearance enhances the dimensional space.

The mirror image is the foundation of Jia Long's power, so he doesn't mind having too many mirror images. Not to mention the little warriors, these past two days, he even wished he could turn Albio into a time-space mirror image.

Of course, he could only dream about such a good thing.

"Who should we replace next?"

As the light faded, Deathmask's image within the Mirror of Time vanished completely, as if he had never existed at all.

Only eight mirror images remain.

Jia Long calculated the time and figured he could stay for about half an hour, so he chose Saga.

He's been using Saga's mirror image for almost a year now, but frustratingly, he's never managed to defeat Saga even once.

"Come out, Saga!"

When Saga with blue hair appeared, Jalong didn't hesitate and immediately started fighting.

He was extremely familiar with Saga's fighting style. Moreover, the mirror image in front of him was Saga from a year ago. A year's difference was enough for Jalong to crush his opponent.

"Heaven-Shattering and Earth-Splitting Fist!"

"Earth-Shattering Fist~"

In a violent clash of combat techniques, Jalong blasted Saga away with overwhelming force.

However, despite having the upper hand, his expression became even more serious. His eyes were fixed on the fallen Saga, his muscles tense, and he looked ready for battle.

"Human, how dare you harm my body?"

Saga, who had fallen to the ground, slowly stood up. His blue hair had turned as black as ink, and his whole body exuded a powerful aura that was so strong that it was despairing. He was like a demon god descending to earth, raising his palm high towards Jia Long.

In that instant, Jia Long seemed to see countless stars converging.

"Humanity, listen to the lament of shattered stars!"

"I've heard it countless times, the Heaven-Shattering Fist!"

Rumble!

As the black-haired Saga swung his hand down, a deafening roar, like the explosion of countless stars, shattered the air within a ten-meter radius, as if the entire dimensional space had been reduced to a vacuum.

Compared to that, Jia Long's earth-shattering fist was incredibly immature, like that of a toddler.

The result can be imagined.

Under the overwhelming force, Jia Long's body collapsed instantly like a star being shattered. He clearly felt as if he had turned into countless particles and scattered in all directions.

"Ugh, I've been reduced to atoms again. According to Professor Albio, there are 88 trillion trillion... I can feel the existence of every single particle in my body..."

"Could this be the profound enlightenment between life and death?"
