[Yanqing: Sorapis must be stunned now. He never imagined that Miss Feng Jin, as a descendant of warriors, would no longer need to fight alone.]

[Feng Jin: Hui Bao, Dan Bao... I love you guys so much!]

[Linnie: An enviable friendship; the Golden Sons, when separated, reign supreme; when united, they are invincible.]

Bennett: The Bennett Adventurers will never abandon any member.

[Hanabi: Studying medicine won't save the Sky People, nor will it save Mondstadt. Violet, Barbara, follow Lady Hanabi! I'll teach you how to use Firework Bombs!]

[Barbara: This... isn't a good idea.]

Klee: Klee loves playing with Hanabi, and she can blow up all the fish in Cider Lake in one go.

Chapter 458 Seneos

Sorapis: "Not bad, but still far from her level."

Lunebis, standing on the side of the Wind Violet, advised, "Sorapis, put aside your arrogance and accept their goodwill."

"During the years you were trapped by the Black Tide, the world underwent dramatic changes. If I'm not mistaken, the God of War, Nicardoli, also fell at the hands of these warriors."

Bai'er affirmed, "We have brought peace to the other Titans. Now, the end of the Fire Chaser is the master of this Sky Fortress."

“Please lead us to Aegler, you two heroic souls. The era of killing gods to obtain fire was started by Seneos herself. Even if she could not witness the end of an era, at least you can bear witness for her.”

Sorapis looked at Bai Er with approval, "Confident and sharp, I see a bit of her in you."

[Star: Just how strong is Seneos?]

[Bai'e: To single-handedly lead two winged beasts and fight against a Titan at its peak, she almost reached the limits of mortal potential. Keep in mind that demigods hadn't even existed yet.]

[Fou: No wonder Sorapis underestimated Violet.]

[Feng Jin: Everyone has their own path. Although my martial prowess can't compare to my ancestors, I have my own advantages.]

[Aglaia: It's good that you think that way.]

Just then, a strange sound came from the screen, and the avatar mark of Aigle... that is, the eyeball, turned into a blazing fireball and flew away.

Sorapis speculated: "Perhaps it sensed our awakening."

“Perhaps our presence reminded it of the fierce battle a thousand years ago,” Lunebis said.

Unexpectedly, Bai'er asked the two, "From our past memories, we know that the Titans of the sky are wary of dark clouds. Perhaps you two know more details?"

Lunebis: "What the Memory Spirit said is true, but you still need a guide."

Sorapis turned his back to the crowd. "Follow me, let the God of Hunts be reborn. Yacinthes, and warriors."

Led by Sorapis, the group arrived near the dome. On the enormous screen, the image of Aigle's avatar appeared prominently.

This is the temple of the people of Hui, where the sons of the blazing sun hold grand ceremonies.

Sorapis also revealed a truth: the Titans of the sky did not favor the people of the sun, but rather hid from the terrifying beings lurking in the shadows.

Bai E's expression was grave: "The threat of the Black Tide forces the Golden Descendants to complete their journey of fire and move towards the creation miracle foretold in the oracle."

“The Golden Blood…” Sorapis recalled, “In our time, that title would have stirred up waves of indignation. But you looked like revered heroes.”

"It's all thanks to our predecessors, Tirispeius and Aglaia. You should have heard of those two names."

"Oh...it turns out that it was the two of them who made it to the end."

Bai'er was somewhat puzzled, but Sorapis remained silent, skipping the topic and saying he would activate the celestial sphere to force out the Titan on the mural.

The group passed through the numerous obstacles set up by the Titans.

Feng Jin recited the incantation to activate the device once again, changing the celestial phenomena on the painted wall.

One has to admire how Aigle's Sky Fortress resembles an infinitely expanded precision chip, with its circuitry, interfaces, storage, and overall style being remarkably similar.

As the armillary sphere emitted beams of light, the warm sunlight on the mural was covered by dark clouds.

The avatar of Aigle felt extremely uneasy, shaking wildly on the screen before transforming into a fireball and hurtling towards the other murals. Its instincts were driving it away from the darkness, to escape the encirclement of the black tide.

[Cersei: You really can't believe that the sky, which once fought against Nicardori, has been reduced to this state by the Black Tide.]

[Wan Di: The Black Tide is boundless, and it's truly remarkable that Aigle has been able to persist for a thousand years. I suspect its sanity is nearly broken, but I wonder if Seneos is still conscious.]

[Ling: Haha, seeing this eye always reminds me of my fairy.]

[Zhe: Now that you mention it, Fairy also harbors secrets unknown to others, and we may already be at the center of an invisible vortex.]

[Bai'e: Even the high and mighty Titans fear the Black Tide. I truly don't know what kind of monster Lai Gushi is gestating. In the battle between gods, we are not even pawns.]

[Little Candle: Whether in destruction or rebirth, Onphalus will surely shine in the galaxy.]

[Gold Sand: I can see your ambition is considerable. A king is most adept at achieving great things with little; as a pawn, what kind of storm will you stir up? I'm eager to see.]

[Dr. Truth: I hate gamblers.]

Before heading to the next location, Feng Jin wanted to delve into the history of this place so that the descendants of the Sky Clan, her ancestors, could see the truth of this legend.

Under the gentle caress of time, chaotic memories coalesced into a fragment of memory.

In the image, Seneos stands on the back of the soaring Sunwing Sorapis, holding a silver spear, her hair like flames, revealing the image of a brave and fearless Valkyrie.

But the people of Hui at that time did not think so.

"...Daughter of Twilight, have you finally succumbed to madness?"

“I knew it… a child who has merged the bloodlines of two sworn enemies will destroy Sky City sooner or later.”

"Do you really intend to point your spear at our gods? Stop now! Your recklessness will invite divine punishment..."

Sunlight Knight Seneos was more clear-headed than anyone else.

"Those innocent children of the earth, merely out of curiosity to peek beyond the heavens, were subjected to a judgment by the high and mighty gods, who condemned them to the extinction of their races and nations..."

“Look down at yourselves. A people who call themselves children of the sun cannot withstand the intense light, and regard their scorched skin as a gift from the gods.”

“You consider yourselves the chosen ones, the strong favored by Aegler, yet you dare not declare war on the real threats in this world, only daring to raise your swords against your weak compatriots.”

A flash of anger crossed her eyes. "You're all terminally ill..."

"My father was also a believer in the blazing sun. He taught me perseverance and integrity, guiding me to move forward towards the light—"

"For where there is light, there is hope. Poor people, I see no hope in you... Even the shadows hiding in the shadows have more dignity than you!"

[Yanqing: The brave wield their swords against the stronger, the cowardly against the weaker. The Yanglei Knights truly live up to their legendary name. You arrogant people of Hui, you are unworthy of your pride.]

[Star: Strong people are always surprisingly similar.]

[Fireworks: Hahaha, this is hilarious! The Radiant People actually consider illness caused by sun radiation a blessing! Even Eger would laugh uncontrollably after hearing this.]

[Ying: Although we can't see her face, the sheer force of her words is incredibly cool.]

Wendy: Yeah, I think so too.

[Feng Jin: This is the true history. The ancient books and chapters that have been passed down to this day record only the arrogance and power of the Hui people, but no one writes about their cowardice and fear hidden under the scorching sun.]

[Tining: If Xiaofengjin has any questions about history, she can come to us anytime.]

Chapter 459 Shocking! Little Ika is actually...

"Even so, Daughter of Twilight! Even so, you should not destroy our faith..."

"It's more than just faith! Aigle shaped the sky; it is the sky itself—if it were to fall, who knows what the world would become!"

Seneos looked down at the crowd.

"A divine oracle came from the horizon. It proclaimed a new era, an era not ruled by the Titans, but created by mortal heroes."

"I choose to believe! All promises break the shackles imposed on us by the old world and bring us the signs of a new chapter... I have no choice but to believe!"

"If you wish to stop me from slaying a god, you'd better muster your courage and draw your longbows to their fullest extent. Let's see whether I'm pierced by a thousand arrows first... or you are burned to ashes by the flames of Sorapis!"

The people of Hui cried out in despair: "How can we fight against you? You are the mighty Thunder Knight, the Valkyrie who can stand against all nations..."

"I am not God—"

Seneos emphasized, "I am merely the only mortal in this cage who has the courage to rebel against the warden."

The people of Hui below the stage fell silent, their expressions ashen even under the blazing sun.

"See...you are truly cowardly to the extreme."

The Thunder Knight withdrew his gaze, and soared into the sky aboard Sorapis. "The hunting grounds are calling us. Let's go, Sorapis."

[Walter: Valkyrie? And Seneos's character design... seems somewhat familiar.]

Bronya: Welt, I know who you're talking about, the Valkyrie Durandal. Perhaps the Honkai is really after you...

[Walter: As long as that man isn't around, I can accept anything.]

[Rakshasa: Mr. Walter, how have you been lately?]

[Billy: Awesome! I wish I could ride the Void with the Bone Blade, and the new Elric would be known as the Dual-Pistol God, a hero who punishes evil and upholds justice... Billy!]

[Ambi: Just think about it.]

Wendy: Although we don't yet know the full picture of Seneos, her last sentence is quite good. One must never lose courage.

[Feng Jin: So she was utterly disappointed in the people of Hui, which is why she chose to sever everything from its source...the god they worshipped.]

At that time, Seneos spoke with righteous indignation, but her heart was filled with compassion for the Son of Man.

That's all for now, it's time to move on to the next stop.

Although Aegler was corrupted by the Black Tide, his connection with his familiars in the Sky Fortress remained, forcing the group into battle.

However, the combined strength of Bai'e, Xing, and Danheng was far beyond what the Titans' retinue could withstand. Before long, the markings on the mural shifted again, and they decided to press their advantage.

Before entering the temple of the Rain People, Wind Violet, as usual, asked Lunebis about the story of Seneos.

Her father was a person of the Sun, and her mother was a person of the Rain.

When Seneos was young, the conflict between the two peoples began to intensify. The Rain People feared her other half of the bloodline and never truly regarded her as a fellow countryman.

But in this atmosphere, she did not hate her people; instead, she grew into a passionate young woman.

Until… people discovered that golden blood still flowed in her body. That was the final poison that transformed disgust into fear.

After hearing this, Feng Jin couldn't help but sigh: "The epic says that the hero Seneos lived alone in order to hone her will and hone her martial arts skills."

"I never imagined... that she was expelled from her tribe because of her bloodline and her status as a Golden Descendant?"

[Magic trick: History is nothing more than the embellishments and fabrications of the victors and their descendants. As scholars, we should possess a spirit of critical thinking. Feng Jin, since you want to record true history, you must always maintain an objective attitude.]

[Aglaia: I agree with that. Many things have changed over the millennia.]

[Feng Jin: Thank you, Teacher Na Ke Xia, Ms. Aglaia.]

[Magic trick: Call me Anak...]

[Mimi: I'm calling you, Xiao Nake Xia.]

Charlotte: I'm very curious, how exactly do the Golden Bloodlines come about? Since bloodlines can't be inherited, is it a random awakening?

[Fou: Golden blood is their unique characteristic. I suspect it's a special selection mechanism from Onpharos that filters out those with potential.]

[Danheng: The Golden Descendants are indeed stronger than ordinary people. If it's a selection process, then the purpose is to inherit the flame... Lai Gushi.]

[Walter: Through Naxsha's deductions, we can conclude that Onpharos is constantly iterating. And Lygus's attitude towards Baier and the others clearly indicates that he is guiding you to willingly die.]

[Star: Huh? Isn't that an oracle?]

[Long Night Moon: Idiot, the oracle has no source. Who else could it be besides the Ancients? The Titans were just tools.]

[Star: I see. But why are you cursing me! You sneaky bastard, dare to come out and show yourself.]

Even after being expelled from her tribe, Seneos did not despair. During her solitary journey, she encountered Lunebis and Sorapis, and together they hunted, grew up, and lived, forming an alliance.

It was a vow stronger than fate that kept them watching over this lonely fortress.

"Even after experiencing betrayal and expulsion, she was still willing to embark on the journey of slaying gods for her people."

Bai Er asked, "Is the heroine Seneos's love for the Son of Man... also profound and unconditional?"

Lunebes sighed but did not answer.

"...Beep!" Little Ika, wearing a small golden crown, suddenly appeared.

Feng Jin smiled indulgently, "Ah, little Ika—why did you run out on your own?"
