Am I going to be controlled by the players too?

fall from the sky!

The battlefield fell silent for a moment.

"Backtrack!"

Serafina acted decisively, instantly transforming into her ouroboros form, causing the world to reverse, and forcibly reverting to the state of Vilette's death!

The blood mist in mid-air quickly coalesced, and Vilette's figure stood still once again.

Serafina had already suffered a backlash from forcibly rewinding the war demons, and when she used her authority again, her pretty face turned ashen, her body swayed slightly, and she almost fell from mid-air—she probably wouldn't be able to rewind legendary deaths again for a while.

Even the resurrected Vilette was not perfect; her magical power had been completely depleted by the previous attack, and the War Demon's six-armed divine weapon was raised once more, ready to strike a second time—

"Bishop, F1."

Hime Mikami makes her move.

With a flash of light and shadow on the Tianyuan Chessboard, Vilette instantly teleported back into the kingdom's territory.

Ji Yushen raised his eyes, gazing at the war demon whose aura had completely transformed and become increasingly terrifying, his expression sinking to the bottom:

The second phase of the boss is just too strong!

His speed is almost instantaneous. Only a legendary character's ultimate skill can take away one of his lives, while his normal attacks are an instant kill for ordinary legendary characters. If players encountered such a teleporting and instant-kill monster in the game, they would have cursed him out long ago. And this is after he was weakened!

He used to be the ultimate monster with infinite health and infinite mana!

With the War Demon's current attack power, only the protection of his own "Priestess", the Pope and the Saintess, and Freya's source essence can hold out for a while... Well, the most useless thing here is that old man Vilette, who can't even block a single move.

It seems that I will have to withstand His attack next.

"Clement!"

Himeko looked up and called out to the Pope, who understood and immediately soared into the sky to begin chanting.

The war demon's eyes flashed with malice, and he moved to shoot straight into the sky to pull him down—but before he knew it, his feet were already bound by dark chains.

"Your opponent is me."

Unbeknownst to anyone, Himegami had recovered from her severe injuries and once again soared into the sky, looking down at the war demons from above, with countless chains spinning behind her, forming a massive vortex.

"At this point, you still think you can stop me with mere chains?"

The War Demon casually snapped the chains and was about to take flight again when he found himself surrounded by countless chains. He attacked again, but this time, the chains were a thousand times stronger than before. Chains that could be broken by hand before now required him to slash and cut them with his sword, a thousand cuts, before he could barely sever them!

For the first time, His expression turned serious as He looked intently at the young female emperor before him.

At this moment, Ji Yushen was completely enveloped in dazzling golden light. In front of her, three jet-black cards floated, bound by layers of golden chains, gleaming brightly.

"Power," "Judgment," "Priestess"!

By holding the position of a legendary flame under its dominion, it upholds the source [Glory] and falsely holds the divine position!

"Pretending to hold a divine position?"

The War Demon was slightly surprised, then sneered: "You dare to challenge me with just three legendary cards?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his third arm on his right side slowly rose, and an ancient and powerful spear slowly materialized.

The spear, crafted from withered wood, was simple and unadorned, its tip engraved with ancient runes. Even in its mortal form, it radiated a sharpness that could pierce the heavens and earth; anyone who looked directly at it would feel a stinging pain in their eyes—the spear of eternity, wielded by Odin, the chief god of Norse mythology.

Gungnir!

This gun possesses the characteristics of "always hitting the target", "always penetrating the target", and "always causing death", and it reverses cause and effect, placing the outcome of "death" before "hitting the target"!

The War Demon is the master of all weapons; He can easily replicate the copies and prototypes of all weapons in the world.

The reason for choosing Gungnir is to take advantage of its unsolvable causal law, bypass the "priestess's" self-healing and vitality, predetermine the death outcome before the wound appears, and then complete the subsequent hit!

"This is bad."

Ji Yushen looked at the ancient spear and smiled bitterly.

Although I don't know the name of this move or its effect, it looks very powerful...

Drawing too much hatred isn't good either; it feels like all of the war demon's deadly attacks are aimed at me...

"Oh well, never mind."

She raised her eyes, looking towards the Imperial Temple in the capital, and said softly, "Endless Ancestors, come out!"

"Boom—!"

A dragon's roar that shook the mountains and rivers for thousands of miles exploded from the ground, the imperial temple in the capital collapsed with a crash, and the dragon buried deep at the bottom of the Dragon Locking Well broke free of its restraints, broke through the ruins, and came flying through the air, instantly crossing thousands of miles of airspace and landing around Ji Yushen!

The once gilded and dazzling dragon vein and body gradually lost their golden light, transforming into an ancient white dragon with a pure white body. At the same time, a pair of small and exquisite white jade dragon horns slowly emerged from the top of Ji Yushen's head, warm and translucent. Her originally white hair was also dyed with strands of gold, fluttering lightly in the wind.

His once clear eyes have now transformed into blazing golden pupils, his gaze sweeping over all things in the world.

"Tank, A1."

As Ji Yushen placed a piece with her fingertip, a magnificent figure over two meters tall appeared beside her, only to be tightly bound by countless chains!

"Chariot", Peng Longteng!

Ji Yushen raised her hand, tossing the Heavenly Origin Chessboard high into the air. The light and shadow rearranged, transforming into the "Emperor" card, which was then tightly bound and controlled by chains—

"Emperor", "Chariot", "Power", "Judgment", "Priestess".

With five legendary flames, we uphold the essence of [Glory]—the false holding the position of true god!

Previously, the divine position held by the three cards was merely a nominal divine status without any divine power; but now, apart from the time limit, Himegami is the only true god walking on the earth!

The jet-black chains of control surrounding her were all dyed crimson gold by the supreme divine power, swirling and dancing, converging into a massive vortex that reached the heavens and the earth. All the threads of fate and the flow of fortune in the world were at her command!

A genuine sense of gravity finally surfaced in the eyes of the war demon: "A true god... It seems that Gungnir alone is indeed not enough."

He murmured to himself, and dozens of flames within his body burned to ashes. Simultaneously, all six arms rose, and six divine spears, transcending the limits of mythology, materialized one by one in his hands. These were:

Gungnir, the Spear of Longinus, the Trident of Shiva, Misteltein, Vivara, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear!

The six divine spears all come from the pinnacle of mythology—Gungnir and Vivara represent certain hits and reversing cause and effect; the Spear of Longinus and Misteltein are specifically designed to pierce the bodies of gods and kill them; and the Trident of Shiva is the strongest divine spear in the three realms, capable of burning the universe, tearing apart space and time, and severing all cause and effect and karma!

This is the ultimate in war and slaughter, the ultimate military power at the pinnacle of mythology!

The world was silent; the wind had stopped and the clouds had settled.

Himegami and the War Demon locked eyes in mid-air, their gazes clashing. No words were needed; a deadly battle erupted instantly.

Countless crimson-gold chains were unleashed, like a cascading silver river, piercing the sky and densely penetrating the demonic body of the war demon!

"Ahhhhh!!"

The [Victory] essence within his body was frantically dominated, plundered, and possessed by the chains. The war demon let out a heart-wrenching scream of pain. In order to break free from this god-level restraint, the head of night in his middle, which represented the present moment, shattered inch by inch and exploded into mist!

By abandoning the "present," the demon of war escapes from the "suffering of the present" and breaks free from its domination.

At the same time, the six supreme divine spears merged into one, transforming into a pure and ultimate white light that shot out from the demon's hand!

That pure white light was the result of the demons of war burning away, using the essence of victory to simulate the "sun," as if condensing the entire sun into a single, irresistible ray of light—

"Know the mercy of the King of Gods! The dragon has fallen; this thrust will bring annihilation! The world will now face its sunset! Burn everything—"

"Sun, submit to death!" (Vasavi Shakti)

Ji Yushen's pupils contracted sharply. She desperately mobilized all her chains, luck, and divine power to block it, but it was all in vain—before the white light reached her chest, her heart had already stopped beating, and then she was pierced through by that god-slaying spear.

"Pfft-"

Warm blood gushed out, staining the gilded dragon robe crimson.

Ji Yushen swayed, clutching her heart tightly, her body staggering as she slowly fell, a flicker of disbelief and resentment flashing in her eyes:

"How could this be...!"

Empress of the Elf Empire, Hime Mikami—

fall from the sky!

With the formidable enemy gone, the last remaining masked head of the war demon looked up at the Pope, who was still gathering strength high in the sky, and was about to teleport and charge to end the battle completely...

"forget!"

The snow-white spear light that pierced through Himegami's chest vanished into thin air.

Since the spear no longer exists, the wounds and deaths caused by it also do not exist, nor do the memories of the War Demon's attack and Himegami's being hit!

Ji Yushen stared blankly at his intact dragon robe, wondering why he had just clutched his chest and collapsed.

On the other side, the war demon's movements also suddenly froze.

His brow furrowed, his mind went blank. He clearly remembered using a certain killing move, but why couldn't he recall it?

"It is... forgetting..."

The war demon murmured, then suddenly awoke, its gaze turning icy: "The essence of [Understanding]...who has it in their hands now?"

No one answered.

From the moment the battle began, Freya used the [Understanding] Source Essence to completely erase herself from everyone's perception—she drifted outside the battlefield, unnoticed and forgotten by everyone. Even Himeko, who had set the plan, temporarily forgot about the existence of this ally.

He intervened at the crucial moment, using all his strength to erase the divine spear, saving Ji Yushen and turning the tide of battle!

Just as the battlefield was momentarily frozen, high in the sky, Pope Clement III had already prepared his ultimate move.

His eyes were clear, surrounded by billions of golden lights of faith, and his voice was powerful, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.

"I come to pray, I come to protect, I come to judge;"

"I have been ordained by Heaven to herd sheep for a thousand years, to protect them for ten thousand generations; my divine might is vast and can subdue demons."

"All is dedicated to—the God of Amber!"

The core authority of the "Pope" is to communicate with the Amber God in the abyss through the faith of all people, and to pray for divine punishment from Him!

At the top of the sky, the clouds burst open.

A massive golden hammer, as vast as an entire continent, slowly descended from the heavens!

This attack range is impossible to dodge, nor is it necessary to dodge—for all the legends and ordinary people, the fall of the giant hammer is a blessing from the gods; but for the demon, it is the ultimate restraint and purification!

The divine might suppressed the vast sky, dispelling demonic energy and dissolving malevolent aura wherever it passed, causing all things in heaven and earth to bow down—the dazzling golden light enveloped the entire wasteland, so intense that everyone subconsciously squinted, unable to look directly at this ultimate divine punishment brought about by the descent of a god.

The deafening roar lasted for several breaths, then the golden light faded, and visibility gradually improved.

In the center of the battlefield.
