I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

Tony scratched his head: "It seems so. You don't necessarily have to defeat the opponent in a one-on-one fight, but a god-slayer who defeats a god must go through a corresponding battle to demonstrate his strength."

"Power can create followers, and followers who receive support from the god-slayer will be regarded as the god-slayer's 'sword'."

"Therefore, when the servants defeat the god, the master will gain power."

“I think Pandora instructed me before that if I were to ambush a weakened god, it wouldn’t increase my power…” Tony paused, then muttered to himself in confusion, “Huh? When and where have I seen her before?”

"Never mind, it's not important anyway."

He shook his head and put the matter out of his mind.

Luo Hao's complexion improved slightly. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Your Excellency's Chi You Banner is the power to recruit troops and wage war."

"As the commander-in-chief of an army, he must be clear about rewards and punishments!"

"Given your outstanding military achievements, it is perfectly reasonable for you to make this request."

As a well-informed god-slayer, Luo Hao also knew of the power to create and summon followers.

For example, if these werewolves, under Voban's command, kill a god, they will naturally gain new powers if the conditions are met.

The appearance of granting the power of a god-slayer to others, allowing their followers to intervene in mythical-level battles... such powers are not surprising.

Furthermore, Luo Hao had previously witnessed Mingxian rapidly depleting his power when using the [Thousand Body Scorching Star] spell, so he naturally agreed with Edelweiss's statement.

However, some people at the scene disagreed.

"This is completely unreasonable!"

"You have absolutely no shame!!"

Mingxian and Liliana shouted at the same time.

Mingxian said, "It's really strange that a subordinate would ask to sleep with his master after making meritorious contributions in battle!"

Liliana blushed and said, "This request is too strange, and it's far too inappropriate!"

"What are you saying, sir?" Luo Hao looked at Mingxian in confusion and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Although I, Luo Cuilian, am an unparalleled queen, you are the king of kings who can easily subdue me. Is it strange that the swordsmen under my command admire you?"

Edelweiss brushed a strand of hair from his shoulder and chimed in, "As a swordsman, it's perfectly normal for me to admire a warrior who has tamed the strongest sword, isn't it?"

Mingxian: "..."

Don't act like you've really fallen for me.

It was clearly for the "elixir of immortality" that was meant to help them "hold hands and cross the mortal realm".

However, Xiao Ai seemed quite happy, even humming a song halfway through. If it were just for the "elixir of immortality," she wouldn't have needed to be so proactive...

Does she really like me?

its not right!

Why do I still have this doubt even though Xiao Ai and I have done everything we should?

My little heart, I miss you so much!

If my fiancée says she likes me, I will believe her without a doubt...

Just as the zither was in disarray, Luo Hao parted her lips and said, "Edwig, as a meritorious general, I will allow you to enjoy my husband's embrace this time, but only this time, my husband and I are husband and wife, and matters in the bedroom can only be done by him and me."

Edelweiss nodded slightly and said slowly, "You'll be getting a divorce in a month, right?"

Luo Hao: "Of course."

Edelweiss nodded: "Then I'm all set."

A month later, it continued to sleep with its owner!

Mingxian finally came to her senses, looked at Luo Hao, and asked doubtfully, "Is it okay to ○○?"

"Of course, we are husband and wife." Luo Hao blushed slightly and said softly, "A young girl like me needs to be carefully considered. Don't make me say such things myself."

Mingxian: "..."

Make a lot of money!

I never imagined I could sleep with Luo Hao for a month for free!

This is an absolute steal!

And the relationship can end after a month...

Suddenly I realized that this trip was totally worth it.

Liliana stared at the scene with trembling eyes, her lips quivering as she murmured, "Is this how the King's relationships are? It's all so chaotic..."

Hearing this, Tony also came to his senses and said with a smile, "It seems that Brother Mingxian has finished his topic. Shouldn't we jump to the battle now?"

Mingxian: "There is no such procedure."

"Don't say that," Tony said with a bright smile. "After a typical dialogue and CG sequence, isn't it time to draw your sword and start slashing?"

"Reality is not a game," Mingxian reminded him.

Tony laughed heartily, showing no intention of giving up, and said, "Let's put it this way, I am also the leader of Italy. The god who appeared last night, what was his name, Perseus or Miltolo? It doesn't matter. In any case, he should be considered my prey. You stole him, so you should compensate me, right?"

Mingxian: "Perseus and Mithril are both related to Mithril's divine status in mythology. You're just pretending to be stupid, aren't you?"

Tony smiled without saying a word.

Whether this person is truly foolish or feigning foolishness remains a mystery.

Perhaps this is what is meant by "great wisdom appears as foolishness"... or perhaps it is "great foolishness appears as wisdom".

"So it was you who eliminated my nemesis?"

A melodious voice gently rang out in the quiet air, like heavenly music, distant and lingering.

Immediately afterwards, a graceful figure slowly descended from the sky, her red skirt fluttering in the wind, as fiery as a flame, and shimmering in the sunlight, like a blooming red rose, delicate and beautiful, captivating all who beheld her.

Her golden hair flew in the wind, cascading down like a waterfall, shimmering with dazzling light.

Her face was as beautiful as a flower, and her eyes revealed a lioness-like sharpness, firm and decisive.

However, when she slightly raised her eyes, it sent a chill down one's spine.

Its eyes were snake-like, deep and wise, as if they could see into people's hearts.

Upon recognizing the newcomer, Liliana exclaimed in surprise, "Erica!"

"No, she's being manipulated."

Mingxian shook his head, his eyes filled with complex emotions: "I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a while, you would also possess a mortal body, Athena."

"Ha ha……"

Erica let out a silvery laugh, but her voice was devoid of any emotion. "I am not only an ancient god-king, but also a war goddess who brings victory to the army. After losing the 'serpent,' the only thing I can rely on is wisdom."

Mingxian said, "The result of your extraordinary wisdom is to control a knight?"

Erica suddenly said, "This girl is just a messenger. Not only her, but also other local magicians have all been turned into stone statues by me and trapped in the city of Flora."

Upon hearing this, Mingxian, Luohao, and Dongni did not react.

Isn't it just turning people into stone statues?

It's incredibly easy to deal with a god who doesn't obey. You know, tens of thousands of people in North America have been turned into animals and are still in zoos, unable to return to their original forms.

Peace of mind, peace of mind.

Edelweiss and Liliana's expressions changed instantly; their sense of justice turned to disgust towards Athena.

Mingxian suddenly said, "Although you have lost the 'Snake,' your divine status is somewhat incomplete. However, turning an entire city's population into stone statues with a single glance is indeed easy. The question is... why?"

“As expected of my nemesis, you are truly perceptive.” Erica whispered, “This is an invitation. I hope you will come and challenge me personally, like a banshee in a temple, waiting for some fool who calls himself a ‘hero’ to presumptuously challenge me.”

Mingxian chuckled lightly, "You've threatened the wrong person, haven't you?"

He wasn't the king of Italy, nor was he some kind of saint. Why should he go and fight Athena for the sake of an Italian magician?

You still have to go.

However, even Athena's wisdom was not all that great.

Erica simply looked at Tony and said, "Godslayer wielding the demon sword, bring my nemesis to my side."

Mingxian: "..."

Tony smiled faintly, slowly raising his right hand and clenching his fist tightly.

"Silver Hand, transform your soul into an invincible blade!"

As he chanted in a deep and powerful voice, his flesh and blood hands gradually transformed into silver metal hands, cold and hard. Vast magical power coiled around his arms like a dragon, and silver light intertwined with the magical power.

His elbow suddenly bent, and he slammed his fist into his chest with a deafening roar.

Boom!

The sound, like metal striking metal, echoed between heaven and earth.

"Bring victory—King of Light!"

With a sudden jerk of his silver arm, he pulled out a knight's sword that shone with a silvery-white light from his heart. The blade gleamed with a dazzling light, as if it could cut through any obstacle in the world.

Wherever the sword tip points, nothing is unbreakable, nothing is indestructible.

Blood spurted from his heart, but instead of staining the earth, it transformed into red gems, adorning the knight's sword.

Tony's soul was transformed into a demonic sword by the [Torn Silver Hand].

Upon seeing this scene, Mingxian couldn't help but think of the "Sword of Light" held by Nuada, the god-king in Celtic mythology. It was a legendary sword that would bring victory to the god-king and was also one of the four great treasures of the gods.

Mingxian said in a low voice, "After seeing my [Sword Master], he also manifested his soul as a weapon. He is truly a man not to be underestimated."

The use of power by a godkiller is not static.

Tony simply hadn't considered that a soul could be materialized into a weapon; once he did, the [Torn Silver Hand] could naturally accomplish just that.

“Brother Mingxian, I am, after all, the leader of the Southern European magicians. Now, for the sake of my dear subordinates,” Tony glanced at Erica, “By the way, what’s your name again? Never mind, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, I will shoulder the responsibilities of the leader and save the magicians who have been turned into stone statues.”

"So let's have a fight now."

"After the fight is over, I'll take you to Florence."

Upon hearing this, Liliana could hardly contain herself and shouted, "You just want a fight, don't you?"

Erica chuckled softly, "That's right, I believe you will come."
