Soul of Burning Steel

It is not the first time that the shadows of the dead have appeared in the world of Grantia, and they have not always been in such a vicious form.

To the northwest of the tomb of the saints, the four holy cities, [Constructed Fortress Calola], above the huge defense line composed entirely of steel and gun barrels, an officer wearing heavy protective clothing, looking at the edge of the distant horizon For some reason, I suddenly thought of this land thirty years ago.

At that time, the shadow of the death was not called the shadow of the death. These existences derived from the dead beings were called remnants by everyone. Under the special primordial energy of the Grandia continent, the human soul was dissipating. Previously, I would imprint my own brand into this piece of heaven and earth, forming something similar to an epitaph. When all the harsh conditions are met, the reverberations will reappear, recreating some of the behaviors or words of the living. , And relatives who saw this scene would regard it as a good omen and thank the deceased for their shelter.

The World of Grantia is a single world consisting of a whole continent. According to the saint’s creation legend, this continent is located in the center of the four oceans. At the end of the world is a chaos of nothingness. There is no lack of curiosity in history. The adventurers of wanted to explore the end of the sea, but in the end they and their ship disappeared at the edge of vision and never returned. However, according to some adventurers who decisively returned halfway, they saw these predecessors Our reverberations and warnings, so they quickly returned, did not continue to move forward.

Therefore, at the beginning, the reverberation was not a vicious form that swallowed all living beings. They have always existed in the form of the epitaph of the dead, the last blessing before death, and some kind of carrier of inheritance. The tomb of the saint is the place where countless reverberations remain.

Different from the remnants of ordinary people, the phantoms left by the strong in this world are stronger than ordinary people, so that they can have a certain degree of thinking, thinking ability, and even leave a part of the inheritance, but their existence will plunder The free energy in the surrounding heaven and earth makes the fertile land barren, and the forests and lakes full of vitality wither and dry up. Therefore, for the safety of this world, whenever possible, most powerful and great men will be killed before they die. Sent to the tomb of the saint to be buried and sealed.

Now, the world has changed drastically, and the remnants have turned into death shadows, and all lives in the world are to be wiped out. The huge sealing circle cluster in the tomb of the saint is the last line of defense in the world. If it is broken, then the entire Grantia There is no place in the world that can survive. After the phantoms of countless great men and strong men are awakened, it is enough to destroy the world they lived in before they were alive.

Stroking the barrel of the magic crystal cannon on his side, the officer remembered many things. It was the scene of his reverberating and peaceful conversation with his father many years ago, and the dark shadow of his hometown many years ago. Engulfed scenario.

But his thoughts were quickly interrupted by the sight in front of him-at the end of the field of vision, on the opposite side of the huge structure fortress, in front of the city wall gleaming with steel, gray and silver light, a black mist suddenly appeared. It was far away. Floating in the northwest direction, obscured all the light along the way.

The sun was fading bit by bit, as if something was gnawing at the light inside it.

The army of dead shadows arrived at this moment.

On the wall of the Kalola Fortress, countless gun barrels began to adjust their angles neatly, ready to fill the bullets, a line of clearly visible runes and magic arrays emerged in the void, and the bronze battle flag was on the top of countless turrets and watchtowers. Hunting Feiwu, everyone is ready to meet.

Not only that, the other three directions of the tomb of the saint, and the other three cities also responded in the same way.

In front of the city, which is in symbiosis with a huge vine that seems to be able to entangle the mountain peaks, with tens of millions of seeds pouring down like rain, countless thick thorns and self-explosive pods appeared around the city wall, and their whole body shone with danger The blue ray of light seemed to explode violently at any time, and in the city, huge old war trees also awakened from their sleep and began to march towards the battlefield.

Located below the city inside the mountain, at the foot of the mountain peak, countless fragmented rocks seem to have come to life, and began to spontaneously combine with each other to form a huge and strong earth elemental guard, they form an endless team The army of elements is standing by at the foot of the mountain.

Behind the towering city walls, in the city ruled by giants, accompanied by the harsh electric arc flowing, the entire city is shrouded by a huge semi-circular lightning barrier. The giant above the throne is presided over by countless humans. Under the support and control, the entire city seemed to have turned into a thunder, even if the steel touched those arcs, it would be instantly vaporized.

In front of the defense line composed of these four major cities, a gray mist is spreading rapidly, expanding, and occupying half of the sky.

The black waves, like a sea tide, rushed toward the defense line violently.

The final war has come. Whether it is the leader of the undead or the four city masters, they all know part of the truth in this world, they all know their responsibilities, and they all understand how cruel and desperate their final outcome is.

One hundred and three thousand people, this is the quota left for them by the creators. Except for the last remaining one hundred and three thousand people, everyone else will be transformed into nothingness and die together with this world.

——But, no matter how desperate you are, you must fight to the end to prove your courage.

That is the advice left by a sage like a star at the beginning of the creation of the world. This advice has remained in the inheritance of these top existences for thousands of years, and has never disappeared.

-Prove the value of your existence.

-That is the essence of salvation.

Therefore, before the walls of the Kalola Fortress, the officer in heavy protective clothing gripped the gun in his hand. Although he did not know this advice, decades of hardships and battles, the death of his family, and the fall of his hometown. It filled his heart with anger and courage.

"ready!"

He roared loudly, raising the gun in his hand, and the sound reinforcement array on his chest also spread his voice across the city wall. Above the barrel, the light of the charged magic crystal illuminated Zhang Jianyi. When everyone looked down from the city wall, they could see that the darkness had covered the distant mountains and plains. The endless black shadows derive from the fog. These remnants of the past were awakened and transformed by some mysterious force. A bloodthirsty and cruel monster, like a turbid wave surged.

"Fire!"

The trigger of the gun was pulled down, and four pale beams of light rose from all directions, greeted everyone's eyes.

Suddenly, the huge steel city wall of Kalola Fortress began to tremble violently. With this command, countless runes on the silver-gray wall were shining in response to the surge of energy, and the energy was stabilized in the atmosphere. The passage was lit up in arcs, as if strips of white changhong ran through the entire city. Thousands of different colors of artillery exploded under this sufficient energy supply. The force of the counter-shock even shook the entire city, causing countless structures to collapse. , And tens of millions of light cannonballs traversed a long arc in mid-air and landed on the ground, blooming the most dazzling light.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom! ! !

The explosion and shock wave instantly covered all the dead shadow army in the direction of Carlos Fortress, and even the gray fog was washed away by the strong energy impact. The first wave of dead shadows was completely wiped out, but the following monsters are constantly growing. Coming in, although the number of them is not endless, it is the sum of all the dead in this world.

In fact, it is no different from endless.

In other directions of the tomb of the saints, the other three cities also started fighting at the same time. The rhythmic and regular artillery bombing, magic sweeps, huge wars, ancient trees and the impact of the earth element army, effectively harvested those inferior deaths. Shadows, a series of realm-level and even heaven-level strategic magics were emitted from the city, covering several kilometers of land, and even everything at the end of the field of vision was washed into white ground by these great magics, completely turned over one by one.

However, under the impact of several waves and dozens of subsequent dead shadows, the defensive line of the holy city is still retreating. In just half a day, the front line of the war has been pushed from the front of the city to the periphery of the city wall, bound by this, many No powerful magic can be used.

"Sir! The enemy's front line is too close to the city wall, let the artillery and caster troops withdraw!"

On the watchtower on the edge of the fortress wall of Carlos, a soldier in black exoskeleton armor stood in front of the officer who ordered the attack. He roared amidst the roar of artillery fire and mixed explosions: "It's time Let's get on top!"

"hateful!"

The officer in heavy protective clothing gritted his teeth. He stood in front of the tower and scanned the front line. In fact, as the other party said, some of the dead are already using their almost weightless qualities to start climbing the city wall. No matter how advanced he is, there is no way to hit the enemy on the wall without damaging the wall, but even so, he turned his head and glared at the young man in front of him: "Son... Captain Farin, do you want to die that way? !"

The young people who were born in the last days and grew up in the last days showed a helpless but determined smile.

"Everyone is going to die."

He said: "But I want to die worthy."

But just as he said this, the observer on the edge of the observation tower, who was observing the follow-up forces of the dead shadow army in the distance, suddenly exclaimed: "Report sir! There is a situation!"

"what's the situation?!"

He waved his hand to make the young man who was the captain of the wall guard retreat and was ready for battle. The officer frowned and asked loudly: "Detailed report!"

"There!"

The observer put down the look-out mirror in his hand and handed it to his officer, and he was guiding the scope: "Ten o'clock, at the end of the field of vision, behind the army of dead shadows!"

The officer picked up the look-glass without hesitation and looked in that direction.

Then he blinked in shock.

It seemed to be an illusion, and it did not seem to be. Behind the dead shadow army in the distance, at the center of the military, waves of black waves were set off, like a tsunami, but the officers could clearly see that the so-called black waves were just a few counts. Thousands of dead shadow army, they are being set off by some kind of force, and they are even flying in pieces, blasting into the sky, so they have formed a scene like a wave.

boom!

A dim red glow appeared in the surging waves in the distance, and a low, but inconspicuous voice came from a distance. If it was not deliberately paid attention, it would easily be caught by the artillery fire around the Kalola Fortress. The sound was overwhelmed and ignored, but the officer accurately caught this point.

What is it? The hidden means of death? Reinforcements from other holy cities? Many ideas flashed through the officer's mind, but they were all rejected by him. The power of the dead shadow is fixed. For the past twenty-seven years, the Holy City has determined the information of the strong men who have always been killed outside the tomb of the saints. All the dead shadows of the great men and strong men who have not been sealed are well aware of them. There was absolutely no red light that set off a huge wave in the distance.

As for the reinforcements of other holy cities, let alone joking. Although the four holy cities are the remnants of human gatherings, because of the different ideas of the city owners, everyone is a competitor relationship. Cooperating to deal with the shadow of death is the limit. Will send the strong to help the opponent defend the city?

Where does this light come from?

"Ah! Dead Shadow's army is in chaos!"

On the side, the observer who took out the spare observation mirror shouted again in surprise, and in the distance, a dim red light seemed to be a meteor, sweeping away a large area of ​​dead shadows and the dark clouds above them, revealing the grayish blue behind them. sky.

The uniform dark army was chaotic because of this, part of it continued to advance towards the Kalora fortress, and the other part was surrounded by the light.

And above the earth.

Man bathed in starlight.

Because the sun is out.

The sun and moon in the world of Grantia are just clusters of extremely condensed energy aggregates, which burn out with the world itself. This is the essence of the stars in a small world in a round sky, the so-called fusion star. It is the fragments of this huge energy aggregate, but the stars are different from the light that will dim on the verge of apocalypse. They are the reflection of the existence of other worlds in the multiverse. The twinkling of a star means that a world is in crisis.

And now, the stars in the sky are disturbed by a mist of light that is like a galaxy sweeping through the multiverse, releasing light that far exceeds usual ~www.novelmtl.com~ The Great Demon Tide is approaching, and the broken world of Grantia is about to accept it. Baptism.

And that is when the end is coming, when all things perish.

The warrior stood on the ground and moved forward slowly. There was no trace of death in the 3,000-meter radius with him as the center. Countless brutal and arrogant monsters wanted to rush forward and shred this seemingly ordinary human, but they When I entered this domain, I felt my body lighten, as if the force that attracted me to stand on this land suddenly disappeared, or was offset by some other force.

Countless dead shadows just like this, like the waves on the sea, rushed towards the man, but the ending did not change. The moment they entered the warrior's domain, they were bounced away by an invisible force at the same time. , Patted and flew straight into the sky. Because of the loss of gravity, the army of tens of thousands of dead shadows were blown away like a huge wave in the sky. They were submerged in the clouds and could not get close to the center target at all.

The man walked with countless scarlet gazes, his face remained unchanged, his clothes were flying in the gale, countless rocks and sand hovering on the side of the warrior, surrounded like satellites, and the earth soaked with blood and shadow power was covered by him. The blazing light of life released from the body was irradiated and purified, and turned into a piece of white ground that released heat, and it was even possible to see the dark golden lava cooling down in the footprints of the man's steps.

Joshua Van Radcliffe walked silently among the Hosts. The violent shadow is no more dangerous than dust in his eyes, and the roaring artillery in the distance and the fierce battle of the holy city cannot attract him. Attention, fighters never interfere with other people's fighting and affect other people's determination.

At this moment, he was only attentive, heading toward the front and higher in his heart whole-heartedly. .
