Chapter Seventy-Eight: Unless Death Can Separate Us
ββ¦β¦ Joshua, you?! β
Listening to the warrior's words, Lolanda, who had been silent on the side, suddenly felt that something was not quite right, and he looked up at Joshua with a calm face in disbelief, his blue eyes full of shock. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hanging above the heads of all beings, in the rift of time and space in the middle of the heavens, there was a huge and twisted evil staring at them from the other side of the void, and the paladin could feel that it was the ultimate evil far superior to a tsunami, far superior to an earthquake, far superior to any natural disaster, a monster that roamed the multiverse and was enough to devour the world.
The reason why the Father of Nature wanted to fully awaken was to deal with this enemy with full strength, otherwise, these stone demons on the earth were not worth mentioning to a true god.
However, in the face of that evil, even the Father of Nature has no chance of victory, and he is preparing to fight with the consciousness that he will fall into eternal sleep.
This is a battlefield that no one can interfere with, and it belongs to the gods.
But listening to Joshua's words, he actually planned to stay here and face an evil god?!
"Are you crazy?!"
Unable to find any other words or words to describe this behavior, Lolanda felt the poverty of words for the first time, and he could only express his emotions with this question, a mixture of confusion and shock.
"Loranda, this is against an evil god."
In response to his friend's questioning, Joshua replied with a calm smile, his face was hidden by the Douqi Helmet and his expression was invisible, only two red lights shot out of his eyes, and the warrior's voice was very calm, completely opposite to the crazy words that came out of his mouth: "It is the strongest chaos that only sages and gods have ever faced." β
"Fighting the evil gods, no warrior can refuse this opportunity, especially me, if I give up here, then I will definitely die in regret in the future."
"No, in the face of an invincible enemy, anyone who has a choice will choose to retreat temporarily and come back when they can defeat the other side."
As if infected by Joshua's attitude, Lolanda took a deep breath, and then found that he could already calmly narrate his thoughts, he looked at the warrior holding the dragon hunting sword and gun, wrapped in black and red fighting energy, and said seriously: "Joshua, you are the most genius and potential human I have ever seen. β
"You can become the youngest legendary powerhouse in the world!"
"Even that is not the end for you, Joshua, you may be able to transcend the boundaries between man and God, and lift your soul above the sky, alongside those Majestyβ"
Speaking words that a true devout disciple would never say, the paladin thought of Joshua's previous battle posture, and then shook his head in a tone of great conviction: "If you leave your life here, it will be a waste that the gods will sigh about. β
ββ¦β¦ Haha, I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of me. But my choice will not change. β
Haha, Joshua didn't have any other special reaction, he just continued to calm down and said: "If the situation is really irreparable, then I will naturally leave without hesitation, but Loranda, as I said before, this is not a must-lose situation." β
He turned his head to look at the Father of Nature, who was silently supporting the purification network, and said clearly and firmly, "It is precisely because of the possibility of victory that I will stay here. β
"The strength of the enemy will only become the embellishment of victory, I am so convinced."
Loranda's chest heaved a few times, and he opened his mouth to speak, but eventually lowered his head and said nothing.
But for some reason, seeing Joshua's confident posture, the paladin unconsciously surged a glimmer of courage and hope from his heart.
- Maybe he really has some way to win and be able to defeat this evil god?
This thought flashed in a flash, but gradually turned into something more heroic, Loranda's originally tight lips gradually curled, and finally turned into a fearless smile, the paladin looked up at the warrior again, and a wave of realization occurred in his heart, he felt that he might understand the thoughts of the man in front of him.
- Even if it is death, what is there to fear?
Neither victory nor defeat matter, but the biggest mistake is to stand still.
And Joshua turned his head and looked at the half-dragon, as well as the souls of Ying and Rin that had broken away from the dragon hunting sword and spear and were suspended in front of him.
The silver-haired girl looked at Joshua with a confused expression, while the black-haired boy frowned and was silent, even if it was usually a simple-minded black, he was now looking at his master seriously.
"You, if you don't want to stay, then go, I will break the contract."
Joshua's voice was much softer than ever, the red light from the helmet's eye socket was no longer frightening, the warrior stretched out his hands, the tattoo on the back of his hand flashed, and he said gently to his subordinates, or rather, his family, "This is my own madness, you don't need to force yourself to accompany you." β
He was about to say something else, but a burning sensation came from the back of his hand, and it was the gods who were resisting him in the most violent way.
And the half-dragon also stepped forward, looking at Joshua with a huge dragon eye, with indescribable emotions in his golden vertical pupils, and at the same time, a voice that a warrior had never heard before echoed in his spiritual sea, although it was unfamiliar, but it made him feel extremely familiar and cordial.
For the first time, Joshua heard the voice of his own war horse.
- Before I met you, I was nothing more than an ordinary war horse.
The voice spoke slowly in a soft tone.
- An ordinary war horse that may die at the hands of orcs in war, or cripple and lame in battle, and be a pack horse for the rest of his life.
Joshua van Radcliffe, my master.
You have given me wisdom, you have given me strength, you have given me dignity, and you have given me hope.
All that I have, including life, is yours, and I will walk with you until death comes.
The half-dragon bowed his head to the warrior, as if inviting the other party to move forward with him.
ββ¦β¦β
Looking at the half-dragon's lowered head, Joshua didn't have time to say anything, and suddenly felt that the burning pain on the back of his hand was gradually decreasing, and a voice that was a little trembling, but gradually calming down, appeared in his ears.
"Master, your words are too much."
Ying's soul floated in mid-air, the girl's puzzled eyes returned to clarity, and without the slightest hesitation, she chuckled and looked at Joshua softly: "We are divine machines, your weapons."
"Is there a weapon that will break away from the master's hand for fear of breaking?"
On the side, Rin, who was also detached from the previous shock, smiled, shook his head, and said calmly: "We are forged by your bones, even if it is the eternal hell abyss, we will go with you."
- Master, where you go, we will go.
Where you live, we live.
Your wish is our hope, your goal is our expectation.
Where you die, there we will die and be buried, unless death separates us.
Their words were so taken for granted, without even the slightest hesitation, after countless battles together, trust had long been sublimated, and it turned into a bond that could not be severed by anything.
ββ¦β¦ Good boys, my best weapons. β
After being silent for a long time, behind the black and hideous helmet, there was a voice that I didn't know whether it was relief or regret: "I knew it would be like this, you would definitely fight with me, but ......"
But it was too dangerous, and although there was hope for victory, Joshua also knew how terrifying it was to face the evil god, the embodiment of the deepest fear in the multiverse, the prototype of all destruction.
It is precisely because they believe that they will go to war with them that the warriors hope that they can leave this place and live in that safe world on the other side of time and space, and the danger only needs to be borne by one person.
But it seems that Ying, Rin and Kuro don't intend to make everything go his way.
The eyes hidden behind the helmet swept over the young girl, as well as the faces of the half-dragon, and in the eyes of the other party, there was unconditional trust in his master, and it was precisely because of this that Joshua felt an emotion that he had never felt before.
In the past, he has always fought alone, whether it is victory or death, it is a matter of one person, but now, his life also carries the life and trust of others.
Carrying this weight to fight...... It feels really good.
"You're all crazy......"
Lolanda couldn't help but shake his head and sigh as he watched the interaction between these people, but in the end, he couldn't help laughing: "I also want to stay, I'm afraid I'm crazy." β
"That's just because, you're starting to believe now that we have a chance of victory."
Smiling in response to the paladin's self-deprecation, Joshua gripped the dragon sword spear with one hand and reached to his chest with the other, clutching the scorching, burning orb.
