Chapter 966: Weng Faluos (13)

She borrowed a concept she had learned earlier in the simulated universe.

"I think Heichi and humanity are more like the contamination of the 'anti-organic equation' on inorganic life and the opposition with organic life? The 【Conflict】 Titans were contaminated similarly, giving them a strong urge to slaughter humanity, and all their minors kill anyone they see."

Frieren rested her chin: "... No wonder Bai'e calls those Titans enemies; as long as we kill all the Titans that have gone mad across the world, humanity should be at peace."

"Lady Frieren, but I think doing that is too hasty." When mentioning the words "kill all the mad Titans," Filien's brow twitched almost imperceptibly, "We need to obtain eternal peace, or should we first investigate the source of Heichi? If it's similar to the crisis on Yarilo-VI, caused by a star core, then we must first seal the star core."

"Otherwise, it's like destroying only the killer's weapon while letting the killer go—treating the symptom, not the root."

"Xing was awakened by Danheng shaking her."

"She had been sitting on the ground beast, not knowing how long she had slept; when she opened her eyes again, she found the sky already bright, and Danheng was desperately shaking her shoulders."

""Hey, something happened, wake up quick! The city is under attack! \""

""Ah?? \""

"Xing wiped her drool, instantly awake, only to see artillery fire flying across the sky, constantly exploding around, some even directly blasting the pillars on both sides of the road, blocking the way ahead completely."

""This is called safe?! It's completely different from what Tipao said! \" Xing picked up a stick, seeing that behind her already a number of statue-like monsters had gathered."

""It's the enemy Chongyuan encountered… it seems this attack is also the work of the 【Conflict】 Titans. \""

"Fortunately they had already fought these monsters before; the two of them disposed of them in a few moves. The nearby civilians, seeing this, also excitedly gathered around: \"You two are so brave—could you be golden descendants from another land? \""

"Xing and Danheng exchanged a glance and, in tacit understanding, did not answer."

"Seeing the two remain silent, the other party began to plead sorrowfully: \"Please, save Aohema, the Mad King Nicadoli has returned—look, chaos and conflict are everywhere……\""

""Stay calm. We'll handle this; you hurry to take shelter. \""

"After seeing that group leave, only Danheng and Xing remained to bring up the rear. He looked toward the distant crowd still fighting, shook his head slightly, and said: \"I thought the Holy City was a solid refuge, but it's not peaceful here. Let's stay on the battlefield and lend a hand. \""

""I don't think Nicadoli is related to 【Destruction】, right……\""

""I don't think so; the difference between these retinues and the anti-matter legion is quite clear. The urgent priority is to first meet up with Bai'e. \""

Chinese Paladin 3.

The moonlight flowed like water, pouring onto the highest tower of Mount Shu.

A thin layer of night dew condensed on the glazed tiles, shining under the moonlight. The upturned eaves of the tower's roof cut a sharp silhouette against the night sky, as if trying to pierce the round moon.

Jing Tian sat cross-legged on the edge of the eaves, holding a wine jar, gave it a shake, heard some liquid sloshing inside half a jar, and satisfiedly hummed.

""Old Xu, don't you think the Mad King Nicadoli is a bit like the Evil Sword Immortal we used to take down together…? \" He turned his head to look at the person beside him, \"I really don't know what Nicadoli wants to do; if he's a Titan, a god of Weng Faluos, why not accept mortal worship? Why must he keep slaughtering humans? \""

""Perhaps he has nothing left but the instinct to kill. \""

Xu Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, his white robe fluttering slightly in the night breeze. He raised his head and gazed silently at the sky, moonlight casting a cold hue on his face: \"Therefore, the urgent priority is for Weng Faluos to gather all the golden descendants and jointly subjugate Nicadoli. Even if we cannot kill him for now, we must suppress him. \""

""But Bai'e said it seems Titans are humanity's enemies; likely not only Nicadoli has gone mad, but all—or most—Titan have gone mad. \""

That Nicadoli can shoot down a train from tens of thousands of feet in the air with a single spear—clearly he's no pushover; that huge sword hanging over Xuanfengcheng is probably his weapon.

To slay a god with human strength still feels utterly insane……

""——Then we should just kill them all. \""

A cold voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Jing Tian jumped in fright, almost sliding off the tower roof. He scrambled to grab the tiles, then turned his head——

Under the moonlight, Chonglou had somehow appeared behind them.

""How is it you? \" Jing Tian widened his eyes."

Chonglou's gaze swept over his face, then fell on Xu Changqing, his brows slightly furrowing.

""Why couldn't it be me? \""

Jing Tian stared for two seconds, then suddenly laughed: \"Okay, okay, fine, your arrival, Chonglou, makes my Mount Shu shine with glory—wait, wrong, this is Mount Shu, not mine, but Old Xu's. \""

""Wine. \" Chonglou extended his hand."

Jing Tian threw the wine jar over: \"This is the aged fine brew I specially brought from Yuzhou City's Drunken Immortal Tower; drink sparingly and remember to leave some for me. By the way, you just said we should kill all the Titans—are you out of your mind talking nonsense? I suspect the Titans here aren't weaker than Danheng's Dragon Sovereign form. \""

Xu Changqing shook his head: \"Probably not stronger than Danheng without his Dragon Sovereign form, right? Well… maybe it depends on Danheng's environment; if we bring Nicadoli to a water-filled ocean environment, Danheng would still be stronger. After all, the Five Valiants of the Cloud is a title recognized by the Immortal Vessel, and it should still be stronger than the monsters of this nameless planet. \""

——

"The two of them went forward and soon met Tipao and Bai'e ahead."

""The main road is blocked! Tipao Teacher……\""

""Don't panic, leave it to *us*—I summon you, Oulonisi! \""

"Seeing this, Xing also tried to imitate Tipao's chant in her mind, silently reciting word for word: \"Unveil the veil of memory—arouse the ripples of the past! \""

"The fallen stone pillars blocking the road began to rise toward the sky, and soon a passage was cleared."

""How's the situation? \" Danheng stepped forward and asked."

""You two… sorry, dragging you into this again. \" Bai'e wore a grave expression, \"I didn't expect Nicadoli to lead an army at this time and assault the Holy City—it has always been the mortal enemy of KefaLe, yet now it has gone berserk like a vicious beast. \""

"Xing clutched her forehead: \"We're completely doomed. \""

""No need to panic, Aohema is also not unprepared; the divine edict has already warned us. This is a heavenly disaster, but not a deadly calamity. \""
