The blazing fire rushed towards Gungnir, but the world-class equipment Gungnir was indestructible and could not be harmed at all by the flames.

But the Golden Branch of Life that parasitized Gungnir was different. The golden plant curled up and withered in the flames until it was burned to ashes.

Gungnir landed on the second-generation One-Eyes, instantly shattering the already haphazardly assembled armor, revealing the light within. But that was all it did. Gungnir remained motionless at the center of the light.

The [Tree] had long since vowed not to harm the second-generation One-Eye, and [Gungnir] was just a part of the tree.

The second-generation one-eyed man raised his hand and grasped Gungnir, the real meteor gun falling into his hands. In this moment of absolute despair, Hebi rushed in front of the second-generation one-eyed man, pointing the gun in his right hand at the second-generation one-eyed man's head.

Chapter 368 She is like some kind of sacrifice

In a story of killing gods, the plot twists and turns, and finally the trump card of victory is in hand, but at the last moment it is discovered that God is no longer afraid of the only trump card.

What kind of expression would be on the face of those who still rush to God at this desperate moment?

A face full of determination? Awe-inspiring righteousness? A willingness to sacrifice oneself for a greater good?

No, there was only greed and a crazy smile on Herbie's face.

The temptation to become a god overwhelms all fear and pain. Even if his legs are broken, he can still stand up and rush to the front of God, and raise his last trump card, which he doesn't know whether it will be useful or not, and use it in order to become a god.

boom--

A tiny spark caused an explosion, but under the suppression of the hard barrel, the explosion turned into thrust, causing the metal bullet to eject along the spiral barrel.

The specially carved projectile pulled the stream of fire into the light body, and the smile on Hebi's face became even wider.

"Is this your trump card? An iron ball?"

It was a gentle voice, like a spring breeze, not the glare of the sun, but the light that streamed down from it. But this voice froze Hebi. It was the voice of the second-generation one-eyed man, and it came from behind her.

The light object in front of me is just a bait!?

"Do you think I would stand still if I saw a human charging towards me even with Gungnir ineffective?"

A hand reached out from behind Hebi, reached into the light body and took out a small iron ball with ornate carvings.

"You were right to be cautious. You've actually produced a weapon that didn't exist in this world, but it's still made of the same metal I swore couldn't harm me."

Herbie was frozen, like a frog being stared at by a snake, unable to move. However, the snake didn't look at the tiny frog, but simply passed by and stepped into the light.

"Human, you have been blinded by the greed of becoming a god."

puff-

Hebie lowered her head in a daze. Gungnir pierced through her chest and shattered her heart with incredible accuracy. All her defensive items were silenced by the world-class equipment.

The second-generation One-Eye released Gungnir, letting the gun and Herbie fall down together.

In the less than 2 seconds of falling, time seemed to stretch out in Herbie's eyes.

Death was approaching, but she did not feel the slightest fear. Instead, she reached out to the scattered armor fragments on the ground while falling, and pinched a wing-shaped fragment into her right hand.

The second generation one-eyed man slowly scanned the surroundings. The [Golden Branch of Life] had been destroyed, and the gun that could kill him no longer existed.

There is no need to stay in this place anymore.

The sound of horse hooves echoed from the distant sky as an incredibly handsome eight-legged warhorse descended from the sky. This was a horse capable of setting foot anywhere in the world; death, for it, was merely a transition to another world.

This is an immortal divine horse.

The second-generation one-eyed man waved his hand, and the scattered armor fragments turned into points of light and disappeared. He did not show off his power like a victor, but simply mounted his eight-legged warhorse and drove it forward.

The remaining evil foreigners stared blankly at Herbie lying on the ground, their fingers trembling slightly, not knowing what to do.

Only one person immediately moved, pounced on the eight-legged warhorse the moment it took off into the air, and grabbed its hooves.

It was Marika. She wasn't crazy, but she had analyzed the situation clearly in a short time.

The second-generation One-Eye is a person who is indifferent to everything and only reacts to the prophecy of his own death. If the second-generation One-Eye shows up, it must be because he already knows that he will die and has made sufficient preparations to strike in advance.

But what the second-generation One-Eye could see was the result of his own death, not the process that led to it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited until Hebi picked up Gungnir before destroying the Golden Bough of Life.

So instead of waiting for the second-generation One-Eye to come to you, it is better to find the location of the second-generation One-Eye first.

In this way, as long as the location of the second-generation One-Eye was exposed to strangers, the passive encounter would be turned into an active attack. Even if the second-generation One-Eye saw his fate of death, all he could do was wait in his hometown fully armed for the person who would kill him to come.

Although the second generation One-Eye will definitely set up a tight net, if he knows it is a trap, then it is not a trap, but a contest.

She would do her utmost to hold on to the eight-legged warhorse and prevent herself from falling. From then on, whether she could find the location of the second-generation one-eyed man would depend on him.

The eight-legged warhorse took off into the air and flew into the distant sky. The strong wind pulled at Marika's red hair, and a white flower fluttered with the red hair but never left.

……

When Blaze felt the tremors on the top of the snowy mountain, he heard nothing but deathly silence.

The girl who used to chatter non-stop was surrounded by strangers. There was a spear on her chest, and the bright red blood flowing from it was particularly dazzling.

The girl seemed like some kind of sacrifice, and he was late.

Even in this era, the vast majority of human beings are still not blessed by God. Their bodies will not disappear, but will remain there, telling everyone that they are dead.

"Blaze? Herbie... Marika..." Ripper noticed Blaze's arrival and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Not only was Herbie dead, but Marika was also missing. How could he bring himself to say this?

Blaze's lips moved twice, and everything in front of him was blank, with only Herbie's chest pierced by a spear.

Click——

Blaze gritted his teeth, slowly walked to Herbie's side, and knelt on one knee. He was extremely calm, reached out and touched Herbie's cheek, then slid down her cheek to her slender neck.

There's no pulse, it's already a corpse.

As long as the Blessed One did not kill Hebi, he could find Hebi's soul and save Hebi.

The Night Watcher can summon wandering spirits, and the Lantern Bearer LV1 can nourish souls. If Hebi's soul falls into Hell, the associated Soul-Slaying Knight can also go to find Hebi.

But... Hebi's soul was still in his body, it didn't disintegrate or leave, because the spear that pierced his chest also pierced his soul, fixing his body and soul together.

Herbie entered a state of neither life nor death.

Blaze took a deep breath and reached out to grope Herbie.

If it was the Herbie Hermes he knew, he would never have died in vain.

Sure enough, Herbie's hands were each holding something. Herbie's hands, which had been tightly clenched, loosened when Blaze touched them.

In his left hand was a platinum metal ball, with patterns carved on it that looked like an eyeball, and in his right hand was a fragment of a wing.

[Mind Eagle Crown Helmet-Prophecy Fragment]

Without the [wisdom] to think about prophecies, even the [prophecies] are gone, and all you can see is fate.

Chapter 369 Take a good rest

Greenland is gone, and the Ripper tells Blaze that Greenland is no longer in this world.

The gun used to kill the second-generation One-Eye was supposed to be used by Greenland, but Greenland made a mistake, leading to the current situation.

Blaze didn't blame Greenland. No one could remain completely sane at the moment of killing a god.

The temptation was too great.

"You said Marika grabbed the Second One-Eye's mount and left with him?"

Blazer was tidying Herbie's hair. Herbie's young face looked peaceful, as if she was just asleep. He still remembered the first time he saw Herbie. The impression Herbie left on him was that when she died, her face would be full of resentment, or even more hideous.

Now, only by looking at Herbie's peaceful face could he calm down and think about what to do next.

Herbie kept the bullet that could hurt One-Eye, and he, who caught the bullet, must finish the job for Herbie.

The Ripper nodded and said, "We didn't know what she was planning to do. She just followed the Second One-Eye and flew away... and we didn't have time to react."

After hearing the answer, Blaze transformed into a silver werewolf. The group was startled, thinking Blaze was going to kill them out of spite. However, considering they were the ones who messed up, and putting themselves in Blaze's shoes, they felt that being killed ten times was perfectly natural.

Blaze just took off a necklace from his neck. It was just an ordinary necklace made of rope, and even the rope had some parts turned black due to long-term wearing.

This is an extremely cheap necklace, but this cheap necklace has an extremely shiny crystal strung on it.

"I know what she wants to do."

[Necklace given by Marika]

[A necklace crafted from diamonds pinched from the first awakening of the bloodline. It houses ancient Giaiens magic and can be aligned with the matching floral ornament.]

"She wants to tell us the location of the second-generation One-Eye."

It was a prop, but Blazer never used it. Marika was always in dangerous places, and knowing her location would only serve to constantly remind him of his own powerlessness. Marika probably used it frequently, otherwise he wouldn't have arrived in Balkan City less than half a day after he left.

The moment Blaze took out the necklace, the blessing automatically opened and the map part was enlarged.

A white flower symbol representing Marika appeared on the map. She moved at an astonishing speed, came to the outside of the map explored by Blaze, and finally stopped in a dark place.

The necklace revealed to Blaze the name of that dark, unknown place.

World Quest: Meeting the Great Tree Part 1

"I will find the location of the second generation of One-Eye. Before that..."

Blaze's voice dropped to a whisper. He opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that were about to come out.

He knew that his pre-battle encouragements, such as "Be prepared before then" and "Become stronger before then," sounded so sinister now. He hadn't stopped Hebi from searching for Odin's treasure because he believed the stranger could protect Hebi.

But he was not the only one who was sad and in pain. The evil stranger who always shone with light was also distraught.

He only saw the result, while the stranger witnessed the whole process.

"You should have a good rest. You are all tired. Leave the rest... to me."

Blaze didn't know how long it took before the Tremor Mountains finally emptied. It took a long time for the strangers to leave, and every point of light trembled as they left.

"Their feelings for us are pure and real, aren't they?"

Blaze held Herbie in his arms and sat down against the stone wall.

The piercing spear pierced Hebi, forcing her to lie on her side, a position that was not very comfortable.

"You're so calm?" Blaze turned his head and looked at the chicken with its back to him.

"This isn't the first time I've seen my only friend die." Chicken's voice was calm, "And one of us always needs to stay calm and think about what to do next."

"Yeah." Blaze nodded and opened his arms towards the chicken.

The chicken was silent for a moment, then flew into Blaze's arms, spreading its wings and hugging Herbie's body, trembling silently. It was a cry that could not be expressed with the throat, a cry that only the soul could make.

In fact, dealing with the endgame was more complicated than Blazer had imagined.

First up was Herbie.

Herbie, a senior partner of Hermes's Traveling Hat, had always faced fierce competition within the chamber of commerce. Now that Herbie had died, his hard-earned position would be eroded by the other ambitious senior partners.

Whether it's a goblin village, a hidden centaur village, or even Arcadia...

The real difficulty was not being able to tell Audrey about Herbie's situation. Although Audrey acted very rational, Blazer knew exactly how Audrey would react when he saw Herbie in this state.

Hiding things is really not what he is good at.

Especially since Herbie has been working part-time as the financial manager of Arcadia. God knows how this guy, who usually looks so idle and wanders around, could have so many jobs.

"You guy, even after you die, you still want to show off how capable you are?"

Blazer banged his head against the stone wall in agony. Finally, Chicken offered a simple and ruthless solution: the Chamber of Commerce badge Herbie always wore on his chest. The feathers on the badge were a prop that could summon the senior partners of the Hermes Traveling Hat to a meeting place.

He would tell [Hermes's Brigade Hat] Herbie's condition, and let other senior partners of [Hermes's Brigade Hat] cover up the news during the period of Herbie's death until Herbie was resurrected.

This wouldn't be easy, as the enemy was the world's largest merchant group, the [Hermes's Traveling Hat]. So Blaze called on all the beings he could find for help, those who were above the rules of the world and unaffected by the [Hermes's Traveling Hat].

Kanreth, the elder of the elves, the first generation of great lions, and Chiron, the child-rearing robot.

Unfortunately, he couldn't involve the strangers, as the strangers' normal actions were based on their friendly relationship with the [Hermes' Travel Hat].

Blazer still remembered what Herbie had said: if you want to negotiate, you have to be strong.

So he did not go to the gathering place of [Hermes' Traveling Hat], but asked those senior partners to shake the snow mountain in the name of Herbie.
