goddess of revolution

Chapter 453 Belief that spans life and death and I am my daughter

The silver-gray light belt rolled the Styx, flying around the towering giant, constantly washing holes in its body, dismantling the next piece of bone.

The giant king's soul fire flickered violently, and the power of death in the entire space was also surging, but under the restraint of the afterimage of the will, under the ablation of the power of the Styx, it was difficult to display its demigod power, and it was just a futile resistance and struggling.

Silver-gray light bands penetrated into the eye sockets, shuttled and stirred in its soul fire.When the green soul fire dimmed, the huge bones also collapsed like the sky.

A skull the size of a mountain slammed into the Netherland, shaking the entire country, as if an invisible barrier was dissolving at this moment.

The manic voice and the sober voice sighed at the same time, "Finally... freed", the soul fire in the skull flickered for the last time, turned into tiny green lights floating up, and the gloom dissipated.

The undead who were still attacking the heroic spirit phalanx paused, like puppets who had lost the silk thread that pulled them, and all collapsed.

Finally... victorious...

Li Qi let out a long breath, but he didn't feel relieved. Maybe the last words left by the giant king were too heavy, or maybe the experience of the past two months in the realm of the dead was too heavy.

Looking at Alishan, who was waving the light belt, excitedly motivating the Styx to flood, and then looking at the Styx Heroic Spirit below, his heart became hot again.

Although I have shouldered more responsibilities, I am not shouldering them alone.

Moreover, he could finally return to the world of the living.

Li Qi looked up at the ray of light in the sky, thinking of his comrades, his witches.

Catherine... No, Ellie should be easy to explain, and she can accept it.

Aurora is going to be difficult, I'm afraid we need to have more in-depth exchanges...

Otto interrupted his deep thinking in a certain direction: "Chief Cardinal, there are living people here!"

What?There are still people alive! ?
A cage that can shield the breath of the dead was found near the giant king's throne, and two people were imprisoned in it.

A curly-haired halfling and a gray-haired human.

That halfling seemed a little familiar, and humans recognized it immediately.

Wandering Paladin Norie!Why is this guy imprisoned in the giant king?
"Your Excellency, you are here to rescue us, thank you so much!"

Norie cried bitterly: "I know that everyone likes to watch my show, but I didn't expect everyone to cherish me so much! After I go back, I will definitely work harder to make better and more novel adventure shows for you!"

I really like watching your show, but what I watch is your trick-or-treating posture, not your extremely narcissistic face!

The halfling was not far behind: "Duke, I am Peake! Frodo and Sam's good friend! I was the one who scouted information for the Duke in the Holy Light Castle!"

Remember, of course, it seems the halfling is a better person to communicate with.

Li Qi asked: "Then... can you tell me how you got here?"

Pique was taken aback, his eyes rolled a few times, and he pointed at Norie: "He discovered the tomb!"

Noria yelled in horror: "You pressed the teleportation circle!"

Li Qi's heart skipped a beat, Mausoleum?Teleportation circle?Could it be...

Pique and Norie continued to quarrel...

"The teleportation chamber you found!"

"You checked it out!"

"You pressed another teleportation circle!"

"You are the one who said for sure that it is a teleportation circle!"

"So far you haven't had a formal scene with me! It's not fair, Norie!"

"You left me and ran away! My god, I can't believe there's a guy like you among the halflings!"

"I wanted to save you, but you sold me! Tesolos, I have never seen such a despicable and shameless paladin!"

"How long can you stay in the Realm of the Dead without this cage? I'm saving you!"

Li Qi listened and confirmed that his deduction was correct. Anger swirled in his heart, and he said coldly, "Shut up!"

This undead disaster was actually caused by these two guys!
Of course, saying that would be too flattering of the two of them. The Giant King was already looking for gaps in the planes. Without the two of them, he would have torn holes from other places and invaded the Godfall Plateau.But in terms of behavior, there is no doubt that these two guys have committed a heinous crime, even if it is unintentional.

The two shuddered and looked at Li Qi in horror.

Norie broke down, put his knees together, knelt down and kowtowed: "Duke, forgive us! We didn't do it on purpose! The Giant King locked us up and wanted to get valuable information about the Duke from us, and even forced me to Sneaking into Beta City to take pictures of the Duke and the Holy Maiden...uh, I sternly refused to take pictures of military secrets!"

Pique looked at Norie in astonishment, rolled his eyes again, and knelt down, with his buttocks still sticking out, and shouted in a shrill voice: "Yes! The Giant King forced me to find Flo How could I do such a thing like being a spy with the Duke? The undead threatened me with bread stained with bones, but I didn't even give in!"

"You two..."

Li Qi laughed back in anger: "You are full of drama, take it away!"

He was in a hurry to go back, too lazy to entangle with these two guys.

The silver-gray light bands shuttled and intertwined, lifted the entire cage, and saw Alishan who was manipulating the light bands through the fence, Noria and Pique grabbed the railings, and shouted with bright eyes: "Girl, who are you! ?”

"I?"

Alishan smiled lightly and said, "I am the Goddess of Styx..."

The two looked stiff...

Two bands of light penetrated into the cage and spun around their necks. Although they didn't stick to their bodies, they exuded an extremely cold aura like a poisonous snake.

Alishan stuck out the tip of her tongue, licked her lips and said, "It's a good time to test the effect of the power of the Styx on a living person whose spirit body has not been separated, uh..."

She covered her nose in disgust, and pulled out the light belt.

The eyes of the two people in the cage turned white, and they passed out at the same time, and the wet spots around their bodies gradually expanded.

Li Qi shouted in front: "Alishan, stop playing, lift us up."

Alishan responded, and the light belt fluttered behind her, supporting her into the air.

The light belt wrapped around the cage swayed, and Noria and Pique writhed inside, curled up and pressed into a ball, each with their heads buried in each other's soaked crotches.

………………

In the world of the living, the time is pushed forward a little, and the huge bone hand is breathing black air, slowly crossing the valley and reaching for the Tegjeer Fortress.

Compared with the spread out skeleton palm, the fortress is the size of a human head. Such a terrifying size makes everyone feel suffocated.

Not to mention machine guns and four-magnification magic cannons, the big fireballs of nine-power magic cannons are as small as candles.

Catherine's three-stage transformation, Rowena's and Numanel's two legendary all-out attacks broke off the bones and fingers one after another, but they couldn't stop the palms that had been wrapped in thick fog like dark clouds from approaching the fortress.

Rays of divine light shot out from the fortress, burning the dark cloud in despair. Just as everyone subconsciously closed their eyes, waiting for the moment when the bone hand hit the fortress, the dark cloud stagnated and then disintegrated.

The half-skeletal arm with the palm was broken from the gap in the plane, and it was broken into large and small bone residues in mid-air, smashing down head-on and face-to-face.The entire area suddenly burst into mourning. The damage caused by this moment was not much, and almost none of the magic vehicles and magic guns within the coverage area survived.

Although washed away by this hail of bones, everyone from the command hall of the fortress to the soldiers on the front line couldn't suppress the excitement in their hearts.

Victory -!
This must be the chief cardinal who defeated the giant king in the realm of the dead, and they also cleared all the giant king's troops on the ground.From the main plane to the realm of the dead, after two months of undead invasion, everyone finally won the final victory!

Divine light lamps, source stone lamps and even torches are lit up layer by layer, illuminating the inside and outside of the valley like daytime, so the plane gap in the center of the valley is no longer so scary, but instead shows a sense of magnificent and strange beauty.

The strong aura of the dead still gushes out from the gap in the plane, destroying the gap, and the war is completely over, but the people are all standing there, looking at the trance-like scene in the gap in disbelief.

The huge stone boat stopped beside the gap, and rows of neat figures stood on the boat.They were tall and straight, dressed exactly like the scarlet warriors, and their faces were like living people, but their silvery-white eyes gave them an inhuman and sacred aura.

"Otto—! My God! Is that you, Otto!"

"Captain! Captain, you are still alive!"

Ralph, the paladins of Xia'andia, and the Crimson Templars of Fei Gong looked at Otto in the front row and all exclaimed.

"Mins! How are you doing down there, Mins?"

Tiss and the other Sisi witches saw the petite figure lying on Otto's shoulder at a glance, and tears came down immediately.

The cracks that were originally like muddy water gradually calmed down, and the figures and faces of the heroic spirits became clearer.

A person's name came out, and everyone suddenly found that the front row was almost all martyrs who died in this war, and their portraits were hung on the wall of the teleportation hall.

It is rumored that they have become heroic spirits, guarding the river Styx forever, ensuring that the souls of mortals can be thrown into the river Styx and obtain eternal liberation.

The CPPCC officials have not officially stated their position on this statement. Except for a few people who saw the red circle on the portrait with their own eyes, everyone just took it as a comforting statement, but it turned out to be true!
More and more people gathered in front of the gap between the planes, crying and shouting, but the sound seemed to be unable to pass through.

Some people were so excited that they rushed to the gap between the planes to reunite with their relatives and friends, but the heroic spirits raised their hands in unison to stop them.

When Li Qi appeared, the emotions were finally ignited.

People cheered and wept to greet their Cardinal.

Li Qi stepped out of the gap between the planes, nodded to the living people, and then turned to look at the heroic spirits in the gap.

Without saying a word, he slowly raised his hands in salute.

The silver-white pupils of the heroic spirits brightened up, and they saluted neatly with their chests and heads held high.

Several voices shouted high-spiritedly: "Salute——!"

That was Wilson, Gambit and even Catherine, they stood beside Li Qi and saluted with him.

There was a loud noise, and the other living people stood up and saluted reflexively.

Across the gap between the planes that fluctuated slightly like a transparent light curtain, the living and the dead saluted each other. Needless to say, everything was in this salute.

On the ridge in the distance, feeling the awe-inspiring and solemn atmosphere, Rowena sighed leisurely: "This is a belief that transcends life and death. This is the first time I have seen it."

"It's not surprising," Numanel said, "Duke Prell not only carries the aura of Styx, but also the aura of the Lord of the Dead, although it is rapidly dissipating."

Rowena shook her head: "No, I'm not talking about Li Qi, but these mortals, weak, humble mortals."

Looking inside and outside the gap, Numen Ael's eyes flickered, thoughtful.

The stone ship carried the heroic spirits away from the gap between the planes, and the living people were also asked to leave. Next, a large amount of "Slime-charged blasting agent" commonly known as "Number 37" was used to blow up the gap between the planes.

Although the giant king has been eliminated, as long as the gap between the planes is opened, the breath of the dead will continuously pour into the main plane, eroding the world, and at the same time stimulating the breath of the dead and the fragments of the remnant soul on the main plane to breed undead.The gap itself is also unstable, and it will become a loophole for powerful existence to enter the main plane through here, and must be completely destroyed.

Li Qi walked towards the crowd with a smile, hugged Wilson Gambit and others one by one, and then hugged the witches, and then the witches were covered all over his body, and a certain oversized rolling hug would not be sensitive.

"Where's Aurora?"

Not to mention Eve and Vicky are busy in the rear. Although Aurora is in Beta City, it is time to receive the news.Not seeing her appear, Li Qi, who already had a ghost in his heart, felt even more guilty.

Fei Ni competed with the Si Si witches for a seat on his shoulder, and said casually: "Maybe I'm talking to the goddess",
The big thing is bad!

Li Qi was complaining, but he saw everyone turned their heads and looked behind him.

Li Qi turned around with countless witches on his back, and Li Qi was so shocked that he was almost crushed to the ground.

Alishan!
Alishan vaguely introduced herself: "Hello everyone, I am Alishan, and I am also a saint."

The others didn't react much. Wilson Gambit and the others knew the inside story with solemn expressions. This is the Styx Witch!

Fini said in a dejected tone of giving up: "Ha, there's another one!"

Tumble, who was trying to compress to normal size, handed Alishan a bamboo shoot, and the Witch of Destruction who turned back into Ali hugged her arms and tilted her head, as if she was measuring the fighting power of her new partner.Her eyes flickered, her expression was solemn, and she was obviously a little afraid of Alishan.

Only Tina looked very natural, walked around Alishan a few times, sniffled, nodded and said, "You smell very kind."

From the perspective of divine power, the two of you are indeed relatives.

Alishan smiled at Tina, then bowed to the witches who were examining her, and said in a reserved and well-behaved tone: "Aunts, hello."

The witches let out a surprised cry, Auntie! ?

Then I heard Alishan say: "My name is Alishan Prior, Li Qi's daughter."

daughter--! ?

The witches yelled, Li Qi's neck tightened, and Fei Ni's small arms were tightly strangled, and she heard her purring from her throat: "Daughter!?"

Ellie, who had rushed into Li Qi's words and was about to hug her, froze, her body instantly turned into Catherine, her forehead was pressed against Li Qi's, her silver-gray eyes flashed coldly: "Daughter!?"

Crystal light burst out behind Tina, and the outline of a huge scythe could be vaguely seen. She gritted her teeth and repeated with a straight face: "Daughter!?"

………………

"Don't make such jokes in the future," Li Qi said helplessly, rubbing his neck outside Beta City.

"In a sense, that's the case," Alishan said with a low smile, "and you think so too."

Li Qi coughed and said, "It's fine just between us."

He was still a little worried: "Is it really okay to come to the main plane?"

"I'm a living person," Alishan said, "the soul is just the heart of a god. When I arrive at the main plane, the power of the Styx is suppressed. It's really uncomfortable, but it's fine to stay for a while, and..."

She looked in a certain direction: "Alison still has some things to finish."

Li Qi nodded knowingly, this Alishan, of course, is referring to the mortal Alishan who is the saint of death.

Thinking of something, he said again: "Doesn't include engraving a tombstone for yourself?"

Alishan stuck out her tongue: "That's your business."

Li Qi smiled and said, "Oh, I should take a roasted pig's head, and engrave 'she and her favorite pig's head will rest here' on the tombstone."

Alishan giggled: "I remember your plan at the beginning was to engrave 'you are with me'. Are you that roasted pig's head?"

Damn it, I forgot that this girl has all her own thoughts about her, and she remembers them better than herself!
Talking and laughing, the two came to a stream.

Alishan walked to a row of simple wooden houses in the distance, and Li Qi found a grave not far from the creek.

Sure enough, the tombstone was empty.

At this time, engraving "You are with me" is meaningless, Li Qi thought for a while, and engraved "Alysan rests here" on the tombstone.

Alishan has been reborn, so let her end her fate as a saint of death and a mortal here.

There was a knock on the wooden door, and Duncan, the archbishop of the Church of the Dead, coughed and opened the door, and then froze.

He murmured: "Ah, Alishan, you are not..."

The girl looked at him calmly: "I am Alishan, but not your daughter."

Duncan was silent for a long time, and said bitterly: "I understand, you are now the incarnation of my lord walking in the mortal world, right?"

"No, I'm Bersequis' neighbor now." Alishan called the Lord of the Dead in a strange tone, and in the soul imprint she projected to Li Qi, there was not much memory about the Lord of the Dead.

Duncan's eyebrows frowned like earthworms: "Neighbor?"

"This...you'll understand later," Alishan said, "I'll pass on a message to you along the way. You don't need to cultivate saintesses anymore. Your church can concentrate on holding funerals and guarding the cemetery."

"This……"

Duncan couldn't believe it: "How is this possible? Without a saint, how would you communicate with our lord, and how would you listen to the oracle of our lord?"

Alishan shook her head: "He no longer needs to communicate with living people, and living people don't need to listen to what He has to say."

Duncan stared at her and said with a hint of hope: "How can I believe that this is what my Lord intended?"

"Do you want me to swear by Styx? That doesn't bind me at all," Alishan said with a smile, "Because, I am Styx..."

There was a flash of silver-gray light in the room. After a while, Duncan stared at Alishan dumbfounded, his body trembling violently, as if he wanted to kneel but didn't know if it was appropriate.

"Don't kneel," Alishan said majesticly: "In short, my existence is to prevent mortals from kneeling to the gods again."

She turned around to leave, but she remembered something, and said back, "Also, although I'm not your daughter, you can treat me as your granddaughter."

Her expression changed, and the coercive goddess aura dissipated, she grabbed Duncan's sleeve and said, "I will come to see you often, remember to prepare a roasted pig's head for me."

It wasn't until Alishan left for a long time that Duncan came back to his senses, jumped and shouted: "Who! Who was Alishan born to!?"

　It's a little late today, I haven't adjusted my schedule recently, it's really a headache...
