Chapter 231 Gambling on the Survival of the World
Outside the Twin Towers.
It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. At some point, Geed quietly took a few steps back, away from the oppressive atmosphere.
"Miss Eden, am I a very important person to you?" Leticia opened her lips lightly and grabbed the hem of her skirt with her delicate hands.
Ximu thought for a moment and answered the question inappropriately: "I killed her with my own hands, and I failed her last request before she died."
Leticia was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Akhtar to answer like this. She suddenly didn't know how to respond. Should she comfort Akhtar for killing Eden and not feel guilty, or accuse Akhtar of doing so? No, no matter what standpoint, she has no say. There must be a hidden secret that she doesn't know about.
But without being by Akhtar's side to go through all this, I couldn't say anything.
"Just take back the Sword of Light." Ximu walked to the edge of the guardrail and looked at the rows of high-rise buildings in the Omniscient God's Domain. He said to Leticia who slowly came to him, "Don't look at the Ragnarok coming soon. It’s coming, but it can still be solved.”
Leticia raised her hand to gently cover her golden sand-like hair by her ears, and smiled softly at Akhtar, "That's really great."
"Before the new era comes, you still need to protect yourself." Ximu held the guardrail with both hands, and the breeze blew the black hair on his forehead, "Although for my sake, they should protect you for a lifetime. "
"Why for their sake?" Leticia noticed something unusual, her heart suddenly tightened, and she quickly asked Akhtar, "Why can't that person be you?"
"That's right..." Ximu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and asked Leticia, "When the new era comes, is there anything you want to do?"
"What do you want to do?" Leticia turned around and looked at the prosperous scenery of the Omniscient God's Domain, with her hands behind her back. "If possible, I want to live with you by the sea, in a house that doesn't need to be very big, and raise a family. A cute pet or two.”
She smiled sweetly at Akhtar and told about the life she longed for.
"Of course, as the queen of the Iris Kingdom, I can't abandon my responsibilities casually. We can wait until we have children and let our children inherit the throne."
"You shouldn't need to manage it yourself by then." Ximu held his chin with his hand and said in a joking tone, "Just find someone who is good at management to come to the Iris Kingdom. You don't have to wait for the children to inherit when they grow up. throne."
"That's true. It's really an idea of having no ambition." Leticia showed a smile and put her hand gently on her chest. "This idea was born when you were not as powerful as you are now. Now you may have It’s out of time.”
Ximu smiled: "It sounds pretty good."
"At that time, I hoped that you could become the king of the Iris Kingdom." Leticia's voice gradually trailed off, and her delicate face began to turn crimson, but she still managed to continue speaking, "When we grow old, You can go to the end of your life surrounded by your children, and then say proudly to your father in hell.”
She raised her cheeks and met Akhtar's eyes.
"This is my hero, my only husband and love."
"That kind of life is really exciting." Ximu smiled softly, and then whispered, "Unfortunately, that is not suitable for me."
"Yes, I know." Leticia turned pale, then took a deep breath and lowered her eyes gently, "But I will still yearn for that kind of life, because you are the only hero I admire."
"Actually, I'm a very bad guy." Ximu looked at the disappointed Leticia and said, "But if there is a chance in the next life, maybe I can try that kind of life."
"It doesn't have to be in the next life." Geed suddenly said, facing the gazes of Akhtar and Leticia, he raised his hand and scratched his cheek and said:
"After you defeat the omniscient God, you will have more time than you can use up. You can do everything you want to do."
"..." Leticia looked at the embarrassed Geed and chuckled: "If Geed is interested, you can also accompany us."
Geed's expression suddenly froze. Looking at Leticia's smiling pretty face, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his body suddenly became hot.
"If the boss is willing to continue to hire me." Her eyes couldn't help but wander around, and she tried her best to speak in a natural tone, "If someone can hold a thigh like the boss's, they will definitely not let go."
"I haven't fired you." Ximu smiled, looked at Geed's increasingly unnatural expression, and changed the subject as if nothing had happened:
"By the way, you can leave with the goddess of life later."
Geed immediately picked up the topic and showed an unnatural expression of surprise: "Are you asking us to stay in the sky?"
"As Ragnarok approaches, the world's environment will get worse and worse." Ximu explained, "There is no way you can survive on your own."
Leticia asked subconsciously: "Will the environment become like the burning tree of omniscience?"
Regarding the scene of the Tree of Omniscient being burned, basically everyone in the world witnessed it with their own eyes. Basically no life could survive in that horrific scene.
Even gods would be burned to ashes in such an environment.
"It will take at least a few years to become such an environment." Ximu showed a thoughtful expression, "Unless I artificially burn the world, or someone continuously interferes with time, will it be possible to completely make Ragnarok? Come."
The process of burning the world in the setting is like burning charcoal, which will not turn into ashes immediately. However, if the process is interfered with by humans, it will be different, and the Lord of Ashes has the ability to interfere with this process.
…
…
At the same time.
In the present world.
Magic Kingdom.
In the Great Library.
The three goddesses who control fate are trapped in the golden chains, falling in the air like prisoners, with their toes more than one meter away from the ground.
And Hecate is sitting elegantly in the middle of the three people, holding a cup of warm black tea elegantly, as if enjoying a comfortable afternoon tea.
But in fact, she has already focused all her energy on exploring fate.
"Hekate, you are the murderer who destroyed the world just like Akhtar." The future goddess tried to struggle, and the golden chains wrapped around her body automatically increased the strength of the restraint, highlighting her mature body curves.
Fortunately, no one present cared about the future goddess showing off her seductive figure.
"If you have time to curse, why not speak out your understanding of fate." Hecate put down the teacup and looked into the eyes of the future goddess, "The sooner I understand fate, the sooner I can unlock the time gap."
"You are pushing the world to doomsday." The past goddess on the other side kicked her two white short legs, "In order to gain that little time, you want to sacrifice the remaining time of this world, you guy..."
Hecate said calmly: "I am a witch."
The atmosphere suddenly stagnated.
The angry past goddess had a stiff expression. Looking at Hecate's cold and ruthless appearance, she suddenly realized something.
This woman doesn't care about the life and death of irrelevant people at all. At the cost of accelerating the approach of Ragnarok, she just wants to create a time gap to gain time to understand fate. This indifference and ruthlessness deep in the soul cannot be shaken by words at all.
"The situation is not as bad as expected." Hecate shook her head gently and explained to the three goddesses of fate, "Now the Lord of Ashes is my apprentice. Even if I create a time gap, Ragnarok will not come immediately. There is still enough time for me to find a solution."
"But the approach of Ragnarok will turn most people into ashes." The goddess of the future said, "Now the time you have gained is for most of the lives in this world to bear."
If time can be played with at will, she would have used her authority to take the gods to escape to the past and avoid the coming of Ragnarok.
However, this is impossible. The more you interfere with time itself, the faster Ragnarok will come.
So they didn't escape to the past.
And what Hecate is doing now is to sacrifice the time of the lives of the world in exchange for her own time.
"Are you done?" Hecate's eyes were emotionless, "Then tell me your understanding of fate as soon as possible."
The goddess of the future: "..."
This woman was completely unshakable. Now she could only tell me all her understanding and use of fate as soon as possible.
Otherwise, what else can she do?
"Before Ragnarok comes completely, let me reach the omnipotent realm." Hecate raised her hand and gently waved, letting the goddess of the future fall beside her, and studying fate with her in the narrow crack of time.
In the current situation, what she can do is to put everything on defeating the omniscient god. For this, she needs to improve her strength as soon as possible, and she doesn't care even if she has to exchange the world's time for her personal time.
Defeat the omniscient god before Ragnarok comes completely, and then cover the old order with a brand new order, then everything can have a chance to be saved.
And if the omniscient god cannot be defeated before Ragnarok comes, then everything is meaningless.
Now it is only one year away from the coming of Ragnarok. With her creation of the time crack, it will only take a few days for Ragnarok to come completely.
If the old order cannot be covered with a brand new order in a few days, this world will come to an end.
The only time left in this world is pressed by her on a death battle that cannot be lost.
…
…
At the same time.
Gao Tian.
"Ragnarok is accelerating." Ximu immediately made a judgment and said to Leticia beside him, "It will come completely in less than seven days, and then the world will be burned to ashes."
"Are you going to fight the omniscient god?" Leticia asked softly, and saw Akhtar raised his hand and touched her cheek.
"Well, it's a battle I'm really looking forward to." Ximu pulled back his hand, turned around and disappeared on the spot, "You guys should follow the goddess of life and leave later."
"Why did Ragnarok suddenly come?" Zed came over, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and said to Leticia, "Didn't the boss say that Ragnarok will come in a while?"
"Maybe someone escaped from the future." Leticia tried her best to keep calm, thinking about what Akhtar said before, "If Ragnarok has already come in the future, then someone must have risked his life to escape."
"... Doesn't that mean that the boss lost in the future?!" Zed suddenly widened his eyes. If someone like her who didn't read much can understand it, then Sister Leticia must be able to understand it.
Leticia said softly: "It's just a possibility."
Now she has no spare energy to change the current situation. The disaster that endangers the survival of the world has exceeded her reach.
Now she could only wait for Akhtar's battle to end.
"Don't worry too much." A gentle female voice came. Leticia and Geed subconsciously looked along the sound source, and saw an existence that seemed to embody the concept of perfect women, slowly walking towards them.
Goddess of life.
The creator of all life in this world, whether it is humans, elves, dwarves, or dragons, are all lives created by the goddess of life.
"It's not that someone escaped from the future and came back." The goddess of life came to Leticia and raised her hand to touch the girl's head. "It's just that fate chose to put the world on the gambling table in exchange for the greatest chance of victory. "
She was so assured.
"In a new world of new order, I will resurrect all the lives that died in Ragnarok."
"It's really a reassuring speech." Geed showed a moved expression. She suddenly felt a strong sense of relief. With the new life promised by the goddess of life, she would not be afraid even if she was burned to ashes by Ragnarok. As long as she waited The goddess of life defeated Ragnarok, so she can still be resurrected.
Wait...when Ragnarok comes, will her soul be burned together, and will hell still exist?
"The goddess of death will collect all dead souls." The goddess of life explained, "Keep all the souls before Ragnarok."
"What if someone doesn't die before Ragnarok comes?" Geed asked. There are many powerful magics in this world. If someone can survive until Ragnarok comes, wouldn't even his soul be burned out? .
This cannot be said to be resurrection from the dead.
"Akhtar will clean up all life." The goddess of life seemed to see through the space barrier, "He will let all souls return to the hands of the goddess of death before Ragnarok completely comes."
Jade's expression froze.
Doesn't this mean letting Akhtar destroy the world and manually sending all living beings to hell, then it counts as successfully defeating Ragnarok.
In people's eyes, Akhtar is also the destroyer of the world.
"Isn't this... too cruel?" She said subconsciously, and then slapped her cheeks with both hands, "No, you can't be indecisive at this time!"
