Chapter 81: Saint Joan of Arc, simulation ended

Burgundy Plain. The moment the morning sun falls on the walls of Burgundy, the final war has begun.

The army has gathered. Standing at the very front of this army, Jeanne stands against the wind, holding the battle flag.

"Now is the final moment to recapture Burgundy, and it is also the moment for everyone living on this land to unite as one. Perhaps everyone's strength is limited, but this time, the moment we gather here! I believe we will absolutely not lose!"

"All troops, prepare! Attack!!!"

The mighty army rushes toward the walls of Burgundy. This is the last defense of the British here. Destroying this defense will completely end this hundred-year war!

"Kill!!"

The sound of killing reaches the sky. Jeanne holds the battle flag in one hand and the holy sword in the other. She is fearless of this battle.

Kill!!

The sound of muskets and cannons rings out. This time, people on both sides seem to have their eyes turned red with killing. Blood has stained this battlefield, but the battle seems as if it will never stop.

The reinforcements that should have arrived did not arrive... Clearly, if only 10,000 more people came, they could have broken through this Burgundy wall that is said to be impossible to break!

But why didn't they come?

"I... was I really abandoned?"

Jeanne remembers what Lin Ye said to her last night.

When the birds are gone, the bow is put away; when the cunning rabbits are dead, the hunting dog is cooked.

Is she no longer needed?

"Quick! The enemy is too strong! Retreat!"

I don't know who gave the order. The soldiers, who were about to collapse, run toward their own city. They leave Jeanne behind to cover the retreat, and then, fearing that the British will attack, they close the city gate directly.

When Jeanne sees the closed city gate, she smiles.

"Is my mission over? Since that's the case... let me die in battle here."

Compared to being burned to death, Jeanne would rather die directly on the battlefield.

At this moment, she is exhausted due to high-intensity fighting, but she still uses the battle flag to support her body. She looks at the crowd rushing toward her, and she takes one last look at the Sword of Saint Catherine in her hand.

"Lin Ye... farewell. I hope your next wielder will not be as willful as I am."

Jeanne understands that she is doomed. She looks at the soldiers before her, preparing to fight to the death to take one or two with her. However, a voice rings in her ear.

"No way. Although you are indeed very willful, but... who made me willing to tolerate your willfulness?"

Boom!

Suddenly, the Sword of Saint Catherine in Jeanne's hand breaks free from her hand! It emits a bright light! Under that bright light, everyone sees a figure gradually solidifying!

"What is that! How can someone come out of that sword!"

"God! It's God! The Lord has manifested! The Lord is with us!"

"No! That person! He has no wings; he is not an angel! He must be a devil!"

Jeanne seems unable to hear these people's words. At this moment, it seems only this figure in the sky remains in her eyes.

"Lin Ye..."

Boom!

The Sword of Saint Catherine shatters! And Lin Ye's figure lands in front of Jeanne. He nods to Jeanne with a smile, then turns to look at the stunned British army.

"Staying in the sword for so long, it's time to move around."

Lin Ye flexes his wrists. Afterward, he stretches out his hand directly, and in his hand, a strange red longsword appears!

"Kill him! He's just one person! What are you afraid of!"

"Charge! Kill this devil!"

"Even if there really is a god, so what? God is only one person!"

Countless soldiers shout, and they rush toward Lin Ye. Facing the mighty crowd, Jeanne is also worried for Lin Ye.

She has never seen Lin Ye take action himself. Can he really do it?

"Enuma..."

Hum!!

The red blade begins to rotate continuously. At this moment, a magic storm rushes directly into the sky!

"Elish!"

Boom!

A terrifying magic storm spreads across the battlefield. Everyone on the entire battlefield clearly sees that the sky seems to have changed color. The originally blue sky turns into a scarlet expanse, the earth begins to crack, and bottomless fissures spread under these people's feet.

Countless soldiers fall directly into the abyss, countless soldiers are swept into the sky by the red storm, and some soldiers have their legs trembling, then quickly retreat to the Burgundy behind them!

Maybe they are not afraid of death, but they dare not wield the swords in their hands against a god! In this era where the Age of Gods has disappeared, Lin Ye! Is a god!

"Want to leave? Then wouldn't I have come out for nothing?"

Suddenly, the sword in Lin Ye's hand points directly at the city wall in front of him!

Red magic pours down, and the city wall that was said to be impossible to break collapses in front of everyone!

"Look! The city wall collapsed!!"

"Quick! Open the gate! Charge over! Victory is right ahead!"

"Long live Jeanne! Long live the God!"

Countless soldiers rush out of the city, and they rush toward Burgundy... At this moment, all the British soldiers, who have been completely terrified by Lin Ye, throw down the weapons in their hands and rush toward the seaside. They want to leave here. That man is definitely not a god!

Even if he is a god! He is a god of death from the Underworld!

"Lin Ye..."

At this moment, Jeanne has covered her mouth in excitement. She understands that it was Lin Ye who broke the shackles of the holy sword to come out and save her.

If it weren't for Lin Ye, she would probably be dead, right?

The moment the soldiers completely occupy Burgundy, Lin Ye lands in front of you. He looks at you with a smile and says softly,

"Sorry, I broke your sword."

You shake your head gently and say, "It's no longer needed."

That's right, the enemy has been completely driven away, so she naturally doesn't need to wield that sword anymore.

"The sword is broken, and I have to leave." Lin Ye looks at you and says.

"What! Lin Ye is leaving!"

Instantly, Jeanne also reacts. That's right, her mission is complete, and even the sword is broken. It is indeed time for Lin Ye to leave, but...

"Can you not leave?"

Lin Ye shakes his head gently, and his body turns into light spots all over the sky.

"No!"

You look at Lin Ye all over the sky, and you desperately try to grab Lin Ye with your hands! You pick up all the fragments of the holy sword on the ground, but you find that no matter what, you cannot put it back together.

"Goodbye, Jeanne. Do not be sad. Also... do not return to Reims. That King will not tolerate you."

Lin Ye disappears completely. What remains is only Jeanne, kneeling on the ground and holding the fragments of the holy sword!

Afterword: You listen to Lin Ye's words and do not stay here. You feel that your mission is complete, so you return to your hometown and live in seclusion.

Later, you hear that the British side, feeling too ashamed and hearing that you are missing, has a woman named Françoise Prelati bring back a woman, saying she captured you, and then those people directly burn that woman at the stake. You just smile at this and do not show yourself, because you heard Lin Ye say that this was your original ending.

You spend your whole life piecing together the fragments of the Sword of Saint Catherine. Until the day before you die, you finally piece together the last piece of the sword.

At that moment, you seem to see Lin Ye's figure appear from the holy sword, smiling at you just like he did back then.

You close your eyes forever. Until death, you are still holding that crack-filled sword in your arms...

Your simulation ended...
