After a fierce battle, Alice finally defeated the old sword god, not only breaking the holy sword in his hand but also causing him to lose consciousness and fall to the ground.
Although Alice defeated the old sword god, she missed the best opportunity to escape. By the time she realized what was happening, the colorful hemispherical energy halo was already as close as a bulldozer to her and the old sword god.
Since it was only the aftershock, Alice would actually be fairly confident that she could survive if she were in her prime.
However, she had only been fighting the old sword god for a short time, and her physical strength was already greatly depleted. She also had many injuries. If she were to be affected by this energy impact again, the final result would definitely be death.
"I never expected it to end like this. I've tried so hard, but why can't I ever get what I want..."
Running away was out of the question, because even if she did, it would be pointless. So Alice simply stood there with her hands gripping the knife and closed her eyes.
"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to fight from a distance?"
"And Alice, are you an idiot? Didn't you see that huge energy shock? You should have run away properly! How come after two years you're still so impulsive?"
Alice, who had been closing her eyes and waiting for death, first felt her body being suddenly picked up. A familiar scent instantly calmed her down. Then she heard a voice beside her that was half reproachful and half worried.
"You're blaming me for acting recklessly? Don't you even know who caused such a commotion in the fight?"
We weren't far enough away! The entire secret realm has collapsed!
Opening her eyes, seeing the familiar face before her and smelling the familiar scent, Alice smiled sweetly.
Just like when I was a child, whenever I encounter danger, the other person will appear in front of me in time to protect me, whether in the past or now.
"You only saved me? What about my teacher?"
Although she defeated the old sword god, Alice only rendered him unconscious and did not kill him.
Despite her willful and capricious personality, Alice is actually more gentle and kind than anyone else at heart. The old sword god who was kind to her would never do something like killing her master, no matter what her stance is.
"Look, aren't you hanging down there? The combined weight of the two of you is really heavy. We were almost swept into the energy turbulence just now."
Wood, who was flying at high speed, picked Alice up by the waist when he flew over her. As for the unconscious old sword god, Wood could only wrap him up with an ice chain and drag him along.
While it's possible to switch places between Alice and the old sword god, only a fool would hug a burly man if there's a girl to hug.
"How's the battle going on your end? Did you successfully defeat that big black demon?"
Alice, held in Wood's arms, had flushed cheeks and asked in an unusually weak voice.
"We don't know the exact situation yet, but with nearly a hundred Saint-level or higher magic arrays exploding, even the so-called strongest armor should be powerless..."
Wood had no idea what the current situation was with Badigandi and the God of War Armor, because the commotion they had caused was so great that they had already flown dozens of kilometers away.
Furthermore, the central area was now filled with Wood's own magical aura, making Badigandi seem like a pebble dropped into the ocean. Wood couldn't find his aura at all, so naturally he didn't know anything about him.
"So, who should be considered the winner of our previous bet?"
"A betting agreement? Oh, you mean that..."
Wood was initially bewildered by what Alice said, but when he saw Alice's increasingly displeased expression, he immediately remembered the bet he had made with her to cheer her up.
Looking at the expectant expression on Alice's face in his arms, Wood finally smiled slightly and said, "Then naturally you, Alice, have won. After all, when I found you, the old sword god had already lost his fighting consciousness."
As for my opponent, Badigandi, his current situation is still unknown, so the bet naturally goes to you, who will defeat the old sword god first.
Upon hearing Wood's words, Alice burst into an extremely radiant smile, the happiest she had ever been.
Upon seeing Alice's smile, Wood also smiled faintly in response.
Strictly speaking, if Badigandi had died or lost in the explosion of the magic circle, Wood should have been the one to win the bet.
Because the moment the magic circle exploded, Badigandi's defeat was already a foregone conclusion. As for Alice, she only managed to defeat the old sword god by virtue of her advantage after the magic circle exploded.
But none of that mattered anymore. Wood was already incredibly grateful that Alice was willing to risk coming here with him to fight the gods. He didn't care at all about the outcome of the bet. He would basically accept any conditions that Alice proposed.
Now that winning the bet against himself could make the girl so happy, Wood naturally wouldn't be so tactless as to sabotage her.
"If that's the case, then I'll use the conditions I won from this bet now."
Alice had already made up her mind about what conditions she wanted to propose to Wood.
She originally wanted to find a better time to do this, but she found that the current atmosphere was just right.
There were no other people around (like Rudy), only the two of them, and Wood was even carrying her in his arms, making the atmosphere incredibly pleasant.
Well... strictly speaking, it wasn't just the two of them, but the old sword god was already unconscious and was being dangled in the wind, which couldn't ruin their perfect atmosphere at all.
"Wood, I hope that after we defeat the gods, you will marry..."
"Wait a minute, Alice, I suddenly think that whatever it is, we should talk about it after the battle is over!"
The girl, who had already prepared herself emotionally and whose face was flushed, was about to express her wish when a certain clueless guy suddenly sensed that the conversation was going very wrong, so he quickly stopped the girl from continuing.
"Are you trying to back out?!" The girl, who was still immersed in happiness and joy a moment ago, became extremely angry upon hearing Wood's words, and her expression was also accompanied by a faint sense of loss.
"No, I didn't mean to go back on my word. It's just that I feel our conversation just now is very similar to famous scenes of various cliché neutral flags."
Setting a goal before a battle only leads to certain defeat. You might think this is illogical, but that's just how powerful the will of the world is.
But in short, I always keep my word. Tell me your wish after this battle is over, okay?
"Frey? That's not scientific." Alice genuinely didn't understand what Wood said, but she could tell that Wood's expression didn't seem fake.
As for what she didn't understand, Alice wasn't too surprised. Rudy often said things she couldn't understand in the past. Alice considered herself to have limited knowledge, while the Wood brothers were known for their erudition. It was quite normal for them to occasionally utter sentences she didn't understand.
While Wood and Alice were chatting, the aftershocks of the seven-colored energy surge, which had raged for several minutes, finally began to subside.
Wood first used several barrier spells to bind the old sword god in place before he and Alice began to move towards the center of the previous explosion.
"Was that big black guy named Badigandi blown to bits?"
No wonder Alice said such a thing; on the way to the epicenter of the explosion, the situation along the way could only be described as horrific.
The storm generated by the simultaneous explosion of nearly a hundred holy-level or higher magic arrays swept up an area with a radius of nearly a hundred kilometers.
In areas a hundred miles away, the ground surface was merely as if it had been scraped clean, but within a hundred miles, not only was the ground much lower than in other areas, but there were no plants or animals to be seen at all; it was just a barren expanse.
The area within a radius of ten kilometers, which was the epicenter of the previous explosion, has now been replaced by an enormous and bottomless sinkhole.
There was hardly any life around, and even rocks were extremely rare. The space in the air was even in a semi-fractured state, but it was being continuously closed and repaired as time went by.
Especially the huge sinkhole in front of Wood and Alice, even looking down from the edge of the sinkhole, it was completely dark, as if the bottom could not be seen at all.
It's hard to imagine just how outrageous the intensity of the magic circle must have been to create such an absurdly large sinkhole.
In terms of the area of destruction, the area destroyed by Wood's hundreds of magic circles may not be as outrageous as the attack Laplace had on the God of War Armor. Perhaps the strength of an attack is not determined by the area of impact.
Wood's magic circle focuses more on the explosion of a single point, and the sinkhole in front of him, which is more than ten kilometers in diameter and completely bottomless, is proof of this.
"Alice, wait here for me for a moment. I'm going to check if that guy, Badigandi, is dead."
We also need to re-search for the entrance to the World of Nothingness. Hopefully, the explosion of the magic circle didn't destroy that entrance due to the spatial tearing.
The explosion of nearly a hundred magic arrays of Saint-level or higher generated such powerful force, which was truly beyond Wood's expectations.
Now, besides whether Budigandi is alive, Wood is also worried about whether the entrance to the World of Nothingness, which was originally located in the secret realm, will also collapse due to the previous explosion of the magic circle.
In terms of the outcome, if the entrance to the World of Nothingness collapses, it should be considered a good thing, because the gods and humans sealed there should be unable to come out for the time being.
As for that guy, Dragon God Orsteed, Wood wasn't worried at all. Anyway, even if that guy gets trapped inside, it's entirely his own fault.
However, the original Dragon God sealed the gods and humans in the World of Nothingness, and in the end, the other party still managed to come out and cause trouble through various means.
No one can guarantee that there is only one entrance from the world of nothingness to this world.
If this entrance is destroyed, and there are other entrances to other worlds of nothingness elsewhere, then when the gods and humans completely break free of the seal and emerge from other places, then everything will be doomed.
It's not that Wood and his group can't defeat the Human God once he escapes. Rather, the Human God is so good at hiding that once he leaves the World of Nothingness and disappears into the ordinary people of the human world, finding him again would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Chapter 554 Entering the World of Nothingness
However, finding the entrance to other worlds without objects is not such a simple matter.
After more than two hundred reincarnations, only this time, with the help of Wood and Rudy, did he truly find the god for the first time.
If it weren't for Wood and Rudy possessing the aura of being able to defeat gods and humans, coupled with Orsteed's dragon clan secret techniques that allowed them to obtain useful information from the followers of gods and humans, finding this person would not have been as easy as they had imagined.
Alice couldn't fly, and he didn't know what the sinkhole was like, so Wood decided to go alone.
It wasn't until he jumped into the deep pit in front of him that he realized the sinkhole was much deeper than he had imagined!
Wood hadn't calculated the exact depth of the pit, but by maintaining his high-speed dive, he managed to fly for several minutes!
"Damn, did they blow this planet apart? It's going to be tough for that guy Badigandi to survive."
"So, if I kill that badgandi guy, can I still get the Mystic Eye from Chisilica?"
Wood looked around after reaching the bottom of the pit, only to find that the pit was too deep to see the entrance at all, and it was pitch black all around, so he couldn't see anything.
However, just as he used light magic to illuminate his longsword for illumination, he found his ankle suddenly grabbed by a hand...
It was dark all around, and suddenly a hand grabbed your ankle...
If it were the Wood of his past life, he would probably be scared to death by now, after all, this is definitely the opening scene of a horror movie. However, when the unknown arm grabbed his ankle, his expression was unusually calm, and he even showed a playful smile, saying in a teasing tone: "Yo, Budigandi, you've really got a lot of luck."
The power of those hundreds of magic circles exploding was even beyond my expectations. I originally thought I might have blown this planet apart, but I didn't expect you to still be alive.
That's right, the guy who's grabbing Wood's ankle right now is none other than the Demon King Badigandi, who fought Wood while wearing the God of War Armor.
The reason Wood knew who the other person was even without looking at them was because he had just sensed Badigandi's presence.
"If you had come down any later, or said a few more words of nonsense, I would have really died..."
Hearing Wood's slightly mocking tone, Budigandi was utterly speechless. To be honest, he himself felt extremely lucky to have survived that storm.
