The old man you see with your phone is highly suspicious.

She saw it, she saw the Demon King standing on the throne not far away!

Then, let's fight to the death!

She gripped the holy sword tightly, and its blade of light shot into the sky. At this moment, with the blessing of the holy sword, she was even able to unleash a mythical-level attack.

Demons feel no pain or fear; they deliver a fatal blow with their greatest power.

But that's not enough, teacher. Grant me love and strength. After this is over, I will beat you to your knees and drag you back to my secret room! Teacher, you can't leave my side!

The holy sword's light intensified dramatically, and at this moment, the next strike would be enough to unleash power reaching the fifth rank.

This is a miracle that can never be replicated, a decisive blow.

"Don't joke around!" The Demon King stretched out his hand, and violent magic began to gather.

"Don't try to stop me!" came the girl's sharp shout, shattering the demon king's counterattack magic with a single blow.

It's near, it's near!

She saw it: the ferocity and resentment beneath the demon king's mask.

The knights behind them were cheering and shouting.

The girl raised the holy sword, its light dazzling.

The Demon King retreated hastily, his face contorted with rage and ferocity.

"Beloved Sword of Victory!"

Chapter 96 The Destroyer of Worlds is Destined for a Terrible Death

"Buzz!"

This strike penetrated the Demon King's body, pierced through the palace hall, and through the entire capital, unleashing an unparalleled, dazzling light.

Fafnir unleashed this unrepeatable attack, surpassing even the 5th tier, her beloved Holy Sword piercing deep into the Demon King's body before exploding completely within it.

The corners of her mouth turned up. Teacher, did you see that?

Did you see that? I did it!

teacher!

She suddenly drew her holy sword, blood spurting out, and the demon king fell to the ground, tumbling down the steps.

She finally ended it all, and the disaster was finally over.

Fafnir hummed softly as she stepped forward and removed the Demon King's mask.

Then, she saw Xue's face...

At that moment, she froze on the spot. The setting sun shone on the ground, and she was completely stunned, bewildered and at a loss.

The knights stopped shouting, and it seemed they had finally prepared for battle.

Teacher... how could he be a teacher...?

No... impossible... absolutely impossible...

She collapsed to the ground, bewildered and helpless.

……

Three days ago, inside the royal palace.

"Uncle, I need you to release the life link, the recipients are me and the evil god," Xue Luding said to the hero uncle.

"You want Fafnir to kill you, so that the evil god can be completely destroyed?" The old man stared intently at Xue Luding, wanting an answer.

"It's not that simple." A light shone from Xue Dinglu's hand; it was the knowledge left to him by the great sage.

“Under our current conditions, only the Beloved Holy Sword can unleash attacks of level 5 or higher, but in such a short time, Fafnir certainly won’t be able to face the evil god directly.” Xue Dinglu laughed, a laugh that was unrestrained. “But Uncle, she will definitely be able to face me directly.”

"Life Link, a fourth-tier mythical magic, can forcibly bind the lives of any two beings together. It can only be used if both parties agree, or if one of them is completely controlled." Xue Dinglu slowly recited the effect of this magic.

Under normal circumstances, he would never have been able to establish a life link with the evil god. However, the evil god is now inside him and has been shattered by the hero's boundless love. The evil god is currently under sealing and control.

Therefore, this fourth-tier magic, which originates from the knowledge of the Great Sage and is basically useless, will become the final piece of the puzzle to kill the evil god.

The brave uncle had guessed Xue's plan, and he clenched his fists tightly: "You... want to use this magic..."

"I want to trade my life for more than half of the evil god's power." Xue Dinglu looked at the capital city, where blood flowed like rivers, and heard cries, rain, and roars.

"I will have Fafnir wield her beloved holy sword, allowing her to unleash a one-time miracle of 'Infinite Love' under the most extreme circumstances, utilizing the sword's unique properties," Xue Dinglu continued, adding to his plan.

"However, no matter how powerful 'Love Without Limits' is this time, it's an unrepeatable miracle. One chance isn't enough to kill the evil god. Therefore, I've installed the evil god's seal on my heart." Xue Dinglu pointed to his heart, a childlike smile spreading across his face.

"That idealistic 'Infinite Love' can definitely, easily, penetrate both me and the evil god. With our lives connected, the evil god would essentially be subjected to two 'Infinite Love' attacks simultaneously."

"Its life and soul will be forcibly cut in half."

Xue Luding stood with his hands behind his back. In front of him lay the chaotic and bloody capital city, and behind him was the newly born Eden.

The brave uncle's eyes revealed an unyielding sadness as he watched Xue Dinglu's retreating figure. This time, he finally understood the true heart of the child before him.

It's not that he lacked love, but rather that his love was too immense; it transcended romantic love, race, and even the world.

He doesn't love any particular entity, but all beautiful things.

Fight for all that is good and for the future.

He fulfilled the promise he made as a child. Having been saved by others, he embarked on a path to save even more people, without hesitation even if hell lay ahead.

What a cruel plan.

“Uncle Brave, do you know?” Xue Dinglu continued, looking at the city’s wailing, blood soaking the paving stones, corpses strewn everywhere, “Those who destroy the world are destined to die a terrible death. I’m just choosing my own way of dying.”

"No matter how eloquent the words used to conceal it, this is still the truth. My plan, while eliminating evil, will also affect a large number of innocent people. Therefore, I was already prepared for this when I started the four-day cataclysm."

"The hero killed the Demon King, the knights defeated the evil god, this is my final 'Zero Requiem'."

……

"Buzz!"

The holy sword shone with a golden and surging light, which pierced through the Demon King's heart, the walls of the palace, and even the entire capital.

Beneath the mask, Xue Dinglu smiled with relief.

The girl was too close; she bumped hard into Xue's chest, and she was very obedient, doing exactly as Xue asked.

The holy sword's violent energy pierced his heart and broke through the seal of the evil god, causing the nascent evil god to begin a hysterical roar.

The violent energy pulverized all his internal organs and stripped him of all life force, and this damage would be returned to the evil god one-to-one!

Oh, saint, who bore all the evil and suffering of this world with his body, was not a perfect hero, but a mortal who was constantly reborn in pain and hope.

Fafnir stared at the person behind the mask, completely stunned. She covered her face tightly, desperately trying to hold back her tears.

This is fake, this isn't real, this isn't real...

At this moment, an overwhelming sorrow appeared on the child, like a gushing torrent of icy water, sweeping over her and threatening to completely engulf her. The sorrow was intense, fierce, and domineering, leaving her feeling weak and powerless.

She thought of that rainy day, the torrential rain pouring down, the world desolate, and on that empty castle, she suddenly reverted to the helpless girl she had been many years ago.

She stiffly turned her head to look at the 12 knights behind her, and then at the "little mage" in white robes.

The young mage lifted his hood and removed his white robe, revealing an empty shell of armor, with a flickering soul fire within it, resembling an undead.

"I'm sorry, Fafnir, it's my fault for being useless..." The old man, clinging tightly to the birdman armor like a ghost, said softly.

“Dad…Dad…” Fafnir looked at the empty shell of armor, at a loss.

Xue Dinglu's body began to dissipate, but behind him, the phantom of the evil god became more and more solid, ferocious, angry, and hysterical.

"I will tell you everything."

Chapter 97 The Returning Hero

"Uncle, I'd appreciate it if you could take my place guarding the Demon King's Castle for the next few days. On the last day, I'll create an opportunity to switch places with you."

Xue Lude looked at the brave uncle, knowing that the uncle understood his plan.

Just like sixteen years ago, when he resolutely traded himself for the evil god.

A fifth-tier evil god—this is someone they couldn't defeat even if they tried their best.

However, after being sealed by the hero for sixteen years, and with the addition of this holy sword that brings double the love, even if the evil god doesn't die, its life will be as fragile as a candle in the wind. At that time, how much power will it have left?

If it falls to level 4, then... the plan will be perfect!

"And what about you?" the brave uncle asked Xue Dinglu.

“Me?” Xue Dinglu pointed at himself, a grin spreading across his face. “Uncle, you know me. I stopped being human a long time ago and became a half-heroic spirit.”

"But perhaps, after today, the word 'half' can be dropped."

"The war is now over, and the Queen has completed her mission."

……

It was as if he were in the ocean, enveloped in all its warmth.

“Child, child…” a gentle voice rang out.

"Who are you?" Xue Dinglu looked at the person in front of him. It was a woman formed from light, whose appearance could not be seen and who could not be known at all.

"Thank you, child. You can think of me as the consciousness of this planet..."

The light enveloped Xue Daolu, as if she were embracing him.

In her account, Xue Dinglu heard a completely different perspective.

When the Shub insectoids first arrived, the world consciousness detected their existence, just as the world of the Great Sages would elevate the Great Sages to "Guardians" to deal with this global catastrophe.

This world consciousness also began its struggle to survive. The hero summoning ceremony 16 years ago was not a coincidence, but the work of this world consciousness. It knew of organizations that specialized in combating these global disasters and tried to make contact with them.

Therefore, the brave uncle answered the call.

Everything was going smoothly at first, but it ended in complete failure.

The evil god was sealed away, but the planet's consciousness also lost most of its power. Moreover, even when sealed away, the Shub insectoids could still infect and distort the world, severing its connection with all living beings.

As the consciousness of the world, He is as if completely caged. His revelations cannot be conveyed to other beings on the planet, and His power can no longer summon the next member of the Starfleet.
