"Yuri, you still don't see anything?"
Even though Qingqiuyuan Huina, who had lived in the wild since childhood and was full of wildness, did not dare to show any disrespect when facing Li Xuan. After all, her greatest reliance in the past, the sword Tensouyun in her hand, could not allow her to last even one more second in front of Li Xuan. The gap was too big.
"No, His Highness looks no different from an ordinary person. I can't tell anything from him."
Yuri Manrigani said bitterly that for her who had been brainwashed, the existence of such a powerful Li Xuan in the land of Japan was very dangerous, but she could do nothing about it, which made her very depressed.
"In that case, our mission is complete. Let's leave quickly. His Highness may be very generous and not care about our offense, but this place is not peaceful. If we are not careful, we will risk our lives."
Qingqiuyuan Hui Na was very dissatisfied. The previous mission to seal the Monkey King was fine and there was no big danger, but being assigned by the Official History Compilation Committee to investigate Li Xuan's identity was a mission that was almost a suicide mission. In fact, if it weren't for Li Xuan being too powerful and killing the several disobedient gods who suddenly appeared before, the two of them would have been torn to pieces by the aftermath in this level of battle.
“So, let’s get going… Yuri, why aren’t you leaving?”
Originally, Qingqiuyuan Eina was still admiring Li Xuan's magnanimity. After all, she didn't think a mere two or three kilometers could hide from Li Xuan's perception. He simply didn't care about small figures like them. But when Qingqiuyuan Eina tried to pull Wanli Gu Yuri away, she didn't pull him, which made Qingqiuyuan Eina feel a little strange.
"What's wrong, Yuri? You're not still thinking about that lousy mission, are you? It's hopeless..."
"No, it's coming, something is about to fall from the sky, ah - floating island... the place where the sacred sword rests... ah ah!"
The shrine maiden looked up at the sky and excitedly uttered something like a delirium. It was obvious that Yuri Manrigani had received a spiritual revelation.
"I never thought there would be a floating island in that kind of place..."
"Floating island in the sky? Yuri, are you referring to that inheritance?"
Another Hime-miko, Ame Murakumo's partner, Seiakiin Ena, also raised questions.
"There's a rumor about the resting place of the savior's sword and the king of the end. It's said that Tachibana Hime threw herself into the sea carrying the sword, and it drifted to a floating island that was neither land nor sea."
"Y-yes...it's not a rumor. The King of the End is right there."
Yuri Manrigani pointed his trembling fingers toward the sky.
The night sky was clear, with only a few clouds. A crescent moon slowly rose high in the sky, and the bright winter stars shone all around.
Qingqiuyuan Huina lowered her head and pondered, then suddenly realized.
"Floating islands—floating islands. So, what's this about neither land nor sea? An island floating in the air, in the sky, that's probably it."
"Yes. Japan is finished."
Yuri Manrigani spoke in a gloomy voice. She was despairing of Japan's troubled fate. That was the Last King, a terrifying being who, as recorded in the ancient texts passed down by Sita, purged the world of demons. Regardless of who won against the Godslayers, Japan as a battlefield was essentially over. For Yuri Manrigani, who saw the world as her own responsibility, this was incredibly devastating news.
"Then why don't you run?"
Kiyoakiin Eina was already prepared to run away. There was no way to absolve herself of her guilt. She was just a mere Hime-mikoshi, and the greatest weapon in 447's hand was just a divine tool. In this situation, even her grandfather Susanoo, the god of disobedience, had no way to stop her, so it was not shameful for her to run away.
"It's too late, Ena! It's too late! There's no chance to evacuate the people. The King of the End has arrived."
The atmosphere. That's where humans go high up in the sky, called satellite orbits, and where we go through the atmosphere and into the universe.
The environment here is harsh, with temperatures fluctuating between extremes of cold and heat depending on the sunlight. Ahead, a small floating island was rapidly falling towards Japan below. The intense friction with the air engulfed the island in flames, yet it was completely invulnerable. It then landed squarely opposite Li Xuan, coming to a strange halt, completely defying the laws of gravity.
The island looked like any other island in the Pacific Ocean, with hills and flat land, but without any plants or life on it; it was just an island of soil and rock.
An iron sword sat in the center of the island. It was a double-edged steel sword with a blade nearly a hundred centimeters long. The heavy blade, like a dagger, was mottled with rust.
That is the sword of salvation, the sword wielded by the hero who annihilates the devil, made of the strongest steel.
Chapter 452: Yuri Manrigani's Determination
Yuri Manritani and Eina Kiyoakiin, who originally thought they were dead, finally came to their senses and stopped the defensive barrier they had set up. Fortunately, the small island that fell from the sky did not collide with the land of Japan. Otherwise, with the weight of the island and falling vertically from the sky at such a speed, even if it could not compare to the great collision between heaven and earth 65 million years ago, the entire Japan would definitely be destroyed by the terrifying kinetic energy and shock wave. There was no other possibility.
Therefore, Qingqiuyuan Hui Na's arrangements with all her strength were just the result of her doing her best. After all, even if the God of Disobedience or the God-Slayer dared to face this attack head-on, they would surely die.
"Another person, no, the God of Disobedience has arrived."
Before Yuuri Manrigani could even lament her survival, her clairvoyance ability was activated again.
"Witch Guardian, God of War who protects the ancestors, God of War worshipped by the Sarmatians, God of the Spear, King of Battle, Sword born from a white meteorite, Sword God who slays dragons and snakes, Knight of the Spear, He is both the Queen of the Amazons and the embodiment of thunder and lightning. With Him are the ancestors of the gods under His protection, the reincarnation of the White Goddess, and followers of the Strongest Steel."
The successive clairvoyances allowed Yuri Manrigani to understand the identities of the two people approaching at a very fast speed. They were the God Ancestors who had been pursuing the place where the Last King was sleeping, and the servants of the Strongest Steel. They came here precisely to awaken the Last King who was in a deep sleep.
"Yuri, let's go. These matters are no longer within our control. Let's return and let the powerful people figure out a solution."
Well, here come two more characters who are not to be trifled with. It is obvious that something big is going to happen here again. Seeing that the situation is not good, Qingqiuyuan Hui Na has decided to retreat. It is better to leave these terrifying existences to other bigwigs to deal with.
Because she grew up in the wild, she was full of wildness, but that was just wildness, not animality. Facing an existence far superior to herself, Qingqiuyuan Eina chose a strategic shift very consciously. After all, even animals in the wild would run away quickly when facing a terrifying enemy.
However, when Seiakiin Ena wanted to run away, she forgot the character of her best friend Manrigai Yuri. She was concerned about the country and the people and was unwilling to retreat like this.
"But Ena, even the Official History Compilation Committee or your grandfather, Lord Go-gong, wouldn't be able to play any role in this situation. What's the point of going back? So we can't leave."
Yuri Manritani said very firmly that she could not leave here. If she really left like this, then Japan would have no chance. It was her thoughts that made her say such outrageous words. She actually said that the Official History Compilation Committee and the Lord of the Three Nobles, one of the Three Nobles, were useless. Especially as a shrine maiden, she spoke blasphemous words to the Lord of the Three Nobles. If Yuri Manritani's behavior was known to others, even as one of the precious shrine maidens, she would be used destructively, such as being offered to the Wolf King of Northern Europe, Marquis Woban.
"But, Yuri, even if we don't leave, what will happen? In a situation like this, not even the Godslayer or the God of Disobedience can change anything, let alone the two of us. Two mere humans, staying here is just courting death."
Of course, Seiakiin Eina would not report her best friend, but she also didn't want to accompany her stubborn best friend to die here meaninglessly, so she tried her best to persuade Manrigai Yuri to leave.
"No, we do have a chance. That's that sir. He's so powerful that he can easily destroy the God of Disobedience and the God Ancestor, interrupting the Last King's awakening ceremony. In this way, Japan can be saved."
"Yuri, are you crazy? We're already trying to avoid Him, and yet you're trying to get close to Him. You know, He might not care about our prying eyes before, but that doesn't mean we can take His kindness for granted."
Qingqiuyuan Eina was a little crazy. Wanli Ya Yuri's decision was too crazy. If any unexpected situation occurred, it would be a dead situation. She would not have any power to fight back. They were completely relying on Li Xuan's mood for their lives.
"But even if we follow your plan, Ena, what chance of survival do we have? If the Last King is awakened, a world-destroying war will begin. In a moment, Ena, no matter how hard you try to escape, you'll be dead. It's better for you to fight with me and face death. Maybe your chances of survival will be even higher."
Faced with Manrigai Yuri's analysis, Seiakiin Ena was very annoyed.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Never mind... Then let's do as you say, Yuri. If we fail, the worst that can happen is that we both go to the underworld together."
Qingqiuyuan Ena directly carried Manrigani Yuri on her back and quickly headed towards where Li Xuan was standing. This was also the reason why Manrigani Yuri insisted on bringing Qingqiuyuan Ena with her. Although they were both shrine maidens, Manrigani Yuri, who had focused all her abilities on clairvoyance, would not have enough time to go alone.
Like now, with Qingqiuyuan Hui Na helping her, the two or three kilometers of broken distance only took about a minute to reach Li Xuan's side.
At this time, Qingqiuyuan Ena and Manrigani Yuri both bowed deeply to Li Xuan. However, only Manrigani Yuri spoke. After all, even for a great knight, carrying a person across two or three kilometers in just one minute was a very difficult task for Qingqiuyuan Ena. She was completely unable to speak.
".Goshin, please slay the disobedient gods and their ancestors, and prevent them from awakening the strongest steel. Otherwise, this world will be destroyed."
It cannot be said that what Yuri Manritani said was wrong. After all, if the Last King had not fallen into a long sleep due to fatigue this time, modern civilization would have no chance to develop. In the past, the battles between the Last King and the God Slayers would often cause human civilization to regress significantly, making humans always struggle between darkness and ignorance. This is also one of the reasons why the gods created the Last King.
In today's modern society, there are six godslayers. The battle between the Last King and the godslayers is likely to push mankind back to the Stone Age.
"It doesn't matter. If the so-called Last King, the Strongest Steel, appears, then just kill him. There's no need to stop him."
Li Xuan said nonchalantly, "I just wanted to have some fun while fulfilling Luo Hao's request. Otherwise, how could the God of War and the God Ancestor have entered the island where the Last King slept and performed the awakening ritual in front of me?"
Chapter 453: Rama Awakens
Guinevere and the God of War Lancelot gradually understood this, although they didn't know why. However, Li Xuan didn't mean to stop them from taking action, so Guinevere let down her guard and began to concentrate on her work of awakening the Savior Sword.
“The divine sword that saves the world! ………………”
As a follower of the Last King, as soon as Guinevere began to chant the Words, the mottled Sword of Savior vibrated and resonated. Wind and clouds surged in the sky, and lightning flashed from time to time. As Guinevere continued to chant the Words, countless thunders struck the Sword of Savior, turning into the source of energy for it to wake up from its slumber.
"O Holy King who will appear at the end of the world, come quickly!"
As Guinevere's final words emanated from her lips, the thunder and lightning that filled the sky finally ceased—the Savior Divine Sword regained its original splendor. The blade, mottled for over a thousand years, now shone with a white-gold brilliance, gleaming with a divine, resplendent light.
Near the divine sword, a brave figure appeared out of thin air. He was a handsome man with long, pale hair. However, his beauty was tinged with the rugged aura of a veteran warrior, and also with an indelible sign of fatigue.
The King of the End slowly grasped the divine sword—463 as if he were touching something very disgusting.
"It's you, the White Goddess and the Spear Knight (Lanxia). Fate is so unpredictable. I never thought we would meet again."
"What a nostalgic way of addressing her. My name is now Lancelot du Lac, and hers is Guinevere."
"Really? You've got a new name too."
The young man's handsome, slightly weary face gave way to a gentle smile. Instantly, he exuded the natural grace and elegance of a nobleman, and the gloom that had always shadowed him was gone. Rama was also delighted to renew his friendship with Lancelot.
However, this joy did not last long, and the Last King's smile faded. Once he regained consciousness, he would have to resume his work, otherwise his mere presence would be enough to slowly destroy the world.
This is not an exaggeration, but a simple fact. The Last King himself has many titles such as the God of War who annihilates the Demon King, the Demon Killer, the Last King to Appear in the World, the Strongest Steel, the God of Demon Annihilation, the Son of Destiny, the King of Kings, etc. However, the original meaning of the Last King is the king who appears at the end of the world, who comes in the end times when the god-killing Rakshasa Kings fight for hegemony, and who puts an end to the world's wars. This is the meaning of the title of the Last King, but in fact, the existence of the Last King is the opportunity that leads to the destruction of the world.
This is because in order to enhance the power of the Last King and to urge him to annihilate the God Killer as soon as possible, the gods in heaven specially bestowed this power. As long as the Last King appears on the earth, he will be able to forcibly extract the essence of the earth to enhance and restore his own strength.
Even Rama himself cannot control this kind of power. After all, although he is very powerful, he is just a tool created by the gods to annihilate the godslayer. Moreover, this ability can also effectively strike a blow against the power of the Earth Mother. It is a two-pronged approach, so why not do it!
The winds howl, the oceans and land steam, volcanoes erupt, and the earth and sky shake. This is the manifestation of the Last King's stay on earth, and many things and life will come to an end. The winds howl, the heat in the oceans and land continues to rise, the mountains erupt, and the earth and sky shake violently. His mere existence will continue to activate volcanoes around the world, and global warming will continue unabated.
There is only one way to prevent the destruction of the world, and that is to find the modern godslayers and fight them to the death. There is no other way.
"My king, there are already six godslayers in this world. We cannot afford to lose any time."
Looking at Guinevere with a look of respect in front of him, Rama felt helpless. He was already very tired and had no desire to fight at all, so he had been sleeping in the Sword of Savior for such a long time. However, he could not say anything harsh to his respected follower. After all, there were so many godslayers in the world. Even if Guinevere did not take action, he would wake up due to other coincidences under the push of the God of Destiny.
So Rama didn't want to blame Guinevere, but he also had no intention of talking to her. It can only be said that having a follower like Guinevere was very hard for Rama, and admiration is often the farthest thing from understanding.
It is true that as the last king and the strongest steel, Rama could not have any aversion to fighting, but his duties as the last king made him miserable, so much so that he developed a dislike for fighting. However, this was no wonder. After all, as the last king, Rama was either fighting the godslayer or sleeping in the sword of salvation to avoid his influence on the world. When he woke up, he fought and fought. Even any god of steel would not be able to withstand this endless battle.
Otherwise, if the God Slayers were only annihilated once every few decades or hundreds of years, it would not be a big deal for the Last King. However, the pitfall of the Last King's position is that there is no rest time and no rotation. The gods in heaven obviously regard the Last King as a complete tool, without any freedom at all.
"Really?! I see. I'll take care of it."
Although Rama hated fighting very much, he also understood his impact on the world. In fact, in just such a short period of time, the temperature within a few hundred miles centered on him had changed significantly. Under such circumstances, he had no choice but to eliminate the God Killer as soon as possible.
"But King, you must be careful. There's a strange guy out there. Even I can't tell what he is, but he's incredibly powerful. Ordinary disobedient gods can't survive a single blow from him. Furthermore, he's a friend of the Godslayer of the western nation, which means he's his enemy."
As Guinevere spoke, she took out the holy grail she had carefully prepared. Inside it was a huge amount of earth essence, which she had slowly collected over the past thousand years. It was enough for Rama to overcome the weakness after waking up and restore him to his full strength.
"Is that so? Thank you, Guinevere."
Rama sighed, but still took the Holy Grail from Guinevere and began to draw upon the earth's essence to restore his strength. Although he was reluctant to fight, with a powerful enemy at his side, he had to recover his strength quickly, otherwise the damage to the world would be too great.
Chapter 454 Princess Alice's Curiosity
On the other side, Yuri Manrigani wanted to say something, asking Li Xuan to stop the revival of the Last King, but her good friend Eina Kiyoakiin stopped her. After all, in her opinion, although Li Xuan had a good temper, it did not mean that Yuri Manrigani could go too far.
What if she really angered Li Xuan? And it was too late to continue talking now. She had already sensed the gradually growing, sharper cursed energy within the island. Its terrifying power far surpassed that of her grandfather, Susanoo. It was obvious that the King of the End had awakened, and there was no need for Mariya Yuri to continue this.
In fact, Kiyoakiin Ena has never really understood her best friend's thoughts. In her opinion, one should not meddle in matters that are not within one's jurisdiction. The Official History Compilation Committee and Susanoo behind it have not done anything. Why should you, a little Hime-mikoto, do such useless work?
This is not because she has no sense of responsibility or commitment, but because she is more decisive and rational. She knows very clearly that she and Yuri Manrigani, two mere maidens, have no ability to change anything in this overall situation. They can only wait quietly for things to happen.
And didn't Yuri Manrigani risk his life to come here, but nothing changed? It was just a useless effort.
However, Seiakiin Ena also knew that this was not the fault of Manritani Yuri. After all, in the current situation, even if her long-time supporter, the Official History Compilation Committee and its controller Susanoo, came, it would be meaningless. They were too insignificant when facing Li Xuan or the Last King.
This is indeed the case. Both the Official History Compilation Committee and Susanoo felt that the world was changing too fast. Ever since the Monkey King was eliminated by Li Xuan, the large number of disobedient gods that appeared made them feel something was wrong, not to mention the movement of the place where the Last King slept, which made them dumbfounded.
What the hell is going on? Why has the world suddenly gone haywire? Although Susanoo knew that in this era with six God Slayers, the awakening of the Last King was a perfectly normal and inevitable thing, the existence of the Monkey King was to prevent the Dragon Snake and the others from provoking the Last King.
Was it really because he shouldn't have released the Monkey King from his restraints? But he had already planned it all out. Once he used the Monkey King to eliminate the God Slayer, he would immediately use the prepared ritual to restrain him again. In such a short period of time, there shouldn't be any problems. Could it be that he and the Japanese were really that unlucky?
For the first time, Susanoo felt deeply regretful for his previous act of releasing the Monkey King. He also realized that something was wrong. Why did he pay such a huge price for a pawn that had not yet become a godslayer? Although Kusanagi Godou had a deep connection with him, otherwise Susanoo would not have chosen him as the protagonist of his plan. But he did have backup candidates. Why did he, like a lard blinded man, want to save him like crazy?
The God of Destiny's manipulation of fate is indeed extremely powerful. She just gently shook the thread of fate and made Susanoo's thoughts unconsciously deviate. However, Susanoo is also a disobedient god after all. Although his strength is average, his status is there. Afterwards, he still realized that there was something wrong with his actions and understood that someone was behind it.
However, it is too late to realize it now. The King of the End has already awakened, and Susanoo can't do anything. This is why Susanoo realized something was wrong. As a tool, he is no longer useful, so the God of Destiny gave up controlling him. Otherwise, Susanoo would probably still be a puppet in the hands of the God of Destiny.
"It's really abominable. The plan hasn't even started yet, and the King of the End wakes up now. Everything is over."
The black-robed monk Tianhai Sengzheng pounded the table, feeling helpless. Although in the eyes of ordinary people, he was already the most pinnacle existence of mankind, and even had one foot in the realm of God, but in front of a higher existence, he was so powerless.
"It's all that damn God Slayer's fault! Damn him!"
"Okay, stop talking!"
Susanoo's face was so gloomy that it almost turned black, but compared to Amane Shojo, he could still barely maintain his composure.
"There's nothing we can do now. We can only wait and see. The Last King will never completely destroy humanity, so we just have to wait for him to kill all the God Slayers."
Yes, the Last King will definitely not destroy the God Slayer no matter what, because this is the constraint of the ultimate ritual of mythology, and because the disobedient gods need humans as an anchor to maintain their eternity and intellect. Therefore, no matter how fierce the battle between the Last King and the God Slayer is, there will be humans who survive. This is inevitable.
All we can say is that the wise Susanoo has already seen what will happen in the next season, so he is the first to prepare for the god of disobedience after the decline of human civilization.
As for the Last King, what does that have to do with him, the God of Disobedience? What they are looking for is the God Slayer. As for those humans on the land of Japan, Susanoo just wants to say good luck to you.
However, he did not completely give up on all the humans in Japan. After all, he was still very good at using the dogs in the Official History Compilation Committee, so he notified the four major families of the Official History Compilation Committee and asked them to hide in advance. Compared with ordinary people, their survival rate would be much higher.
Princess Alice thought that the actions of Susanoo or anyone else were perfectly normal. Even she herself had informed the other members of the Council of Sages and asked them to seek refuge on their own.
Alice herself did not have such an idea. After all, her overly powerful clairvoyance made her body very weak, and the probability of her surviving the upcoming major changes was very low. So instead of pursuing that pitiful small hope, it would be better to continue to observe the changes in the situation here. Anyway, her life span would not be too long.
It would be better to look at Li Xuan, a man she couldn't fathom. After all, while the Last King was powerful, she, as the Speaker of the Council of Sages, had some understanding of him through the many inherited texts. But Li Xuan, a man she couldn't fathom at all, seemed to have emerged from nowhere, with no information at all. This was a truly novel experience for the insatiable Alice.
