Chapter 903: Old age awakens many times, and there seems to be someone offering a knife
Just as Capitano and Mavica were preparing to engage in a desperate battle with "Dutch van der Linde", who was transformed from the abyss and whose strength far exceeded the ordinary version, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.
Shao Yun rode the weather horse "Famine" and came galloping like the wind.
Behind him sat Chaska, who had just recovered.
Not far from them, Kuike was riding his Velvet Pterosaur and following closely behind.
As expected, the opposite sex sitting behind Shao Yun, apart from Ying, is either a dying patient... There is nothing I can do if I don't like them...
When Shao Yun looked at this familiar figure, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. No way... It has only been a short time, and the abyss has already taken over so many people he is familiar with!
He pulled the reins tightly and shouted the man's name involuntarily in his throat.
"Dutch!"
Dutch van der Linde shuddered when he heard the familiar voice.
"Do not……"
He turned his head reflexively, and the moment his eyes met Shao Yun's, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face, and he blurted out: "Arthur?"
Shao Yun widened his eyes, looking at the person in front of him who looked exactly the same as in his memory, and the shock in his heart was beyond words.
First it was Langdon, then Charles, and now it's you...
Shao Yun took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He dismounted and walked towards Dutch with a somewhat unsteady step, his eyes always on him.
Dutch's hand holding the gun began to tremble slightly, and his breathing became a little rapid.
He didn't dare look directly into Shao Yun's eyes, because he was afraid of seeing the figure who was so similar to Arthur, and afraid of facing this person who made him feel ashamed.
Dutch's mind kept flashing back to the moments he had with Arthur, the laughter, tears, quarrels and...
Now it's all playing out in front of his eyes like a movie.
However, he could not accept the fact before him - Arthur was dead, and the person standing before him was just an impostor who looked and acted like Arthur.
Dutch shook his head vigorously to dispel the distracting thoughts in his mind.
He raised the gun in his hand, pointed it at Shao Yun, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "I don't know what you are talking about. You, you are not my child! He is dead! You fake!"
However, despite what Dutch said, the gun in his hand was visibly shaking, revealing his extreme inner anxiety and guilt.
How startled I am when I am old, it seems someone is offering me a knife...
Shao Yun just stared at Dachi expressionlessly.
Dutch seemed a little guilty, his eyes dodged left and right, and he never dared to look Shao Yun (Arthur) in the eye.
Shao Yun pointed his finger directly at Daqi's eyes, questioning in his voice: "Maybe, but why don't you dare look me in the eye?"
Dachi's body trembled slightly, and his eyes finally slowly fell on Shao Yun, but he seemed a little incoherent.
"me……"
Seeing this, Shao Yun slowly took off the Apocalypse Legend hat on his head, and then put on the black gambler hat. He looked at Dutch provocatively and asked again: "What now?"
When Dutch's eyes fell on the familiar black gambler's hat on Shao Yun's head, his emotions exploded instantly like a ignited powder keg.
"My best child is dead!" Dutch's voice was filled with pain and despair, and his body was shaking with excitement.
"You're not him! You, damn it, this isn't real!"
Shao Yun looked at Dachi quietly. He could feel the fear and anxiety in his heart.
However, his tone remained calm as he explained truthfully: "I don't want to kill you. Although you are just a creature created by the Abyss through my memory, please let go of this innocent woman in your hands."
Shao Yun did not have much hostility towards Dachi in front of him, he just hoped that he could let go of the hostages.
"Kill those who should be killed, save those who should be saved, feed those who should be fed, this is what you taught me. Don't let her become the second 'Heidi McCourt'."
As Dutch van der Linde listened to what Shao Yun said, images of himself in the past, high-spirited and ambitious, kept flashing through his mind.
At that time, he was so confident and proud that he wanted to build a utopia without a government...
However, he was now in such a state of desolation that he would do anything to achieve his goal, even becoming despicable and shameless. This huge contrast made him lose his mind, and he said with trembling lips:
"I……"
Dutch's gaze slowly fell on Miss "Iyoba" who was held hostage by him.
At this moment, something in his heart seemed to be touched.
Finally, he slowly let go of Miss "Iyoba".
After gaining her freedom, Miss "Iyoba" turned around and ran away without hesitation. She had only one goal: the Holy Fire Arena, where her daughter was waiting for her.
Just when Mavica and Capitano were about to take advantage of the opportunity to kill Dutch van der Linde, who was transformed from the abyss, Shao Yun suddenly raised his hand to stop them.
Although this "Dutch" that appeared from the abyss is not the real Dutch, killing him now is undoubtedly the wisest choice.
However, Shao Yun didn't know why, but there was always a hint of hesitation in his heart that prevented him from killing the man.
Shao Yun silently turned sideways and made way.
"Get out of here... now."
Dutch van der Linde, who was transformed from the abyss, did not say a word. He just silently put the semi-automatic pistol back into the holster on his waist, then slowly turned around and walked in the direction Shao Yun pointed.
But the moment he passed Shao Yun, Dachi's eyes fell on the gambler's hat on his head, as if he was recalling something.
"Arthur..."
Chaska was very puzzled that Shao Yun let such a threatening enemy go, and asked: "You just let him go like this? Don't you plan to kill him?"
Shao Yun shook his head slowly, a complicated expression appearing on his face.
"No need for that. Anyway, you six heroes have already gathered. Once the Abyss is completely destroyed, he will naturally dissipate with it. Don't bother with him anymore."
Chaska looked at the strange expression on Shao Yun's face and asked, "Do you know this enemy transformed from the abyss?"
Upon hearing this, Shao Yun nodded calmly and answered frankly: "Yes, in my current memory, he raised me for more than 20 years..."
"If a man who has raised you for more than 20 years ends up turning into a jerk that even his younger self hates in just a few months, anyone would be stunned."
As the mediator of Tralocan, Chaska was well-informed and saw through the essence of the matter at a glance. He commented mercilessly:
"So, he is really an excellent actor. He was able to disguise himself for more than 20 years."
Shao Yun listened to Chaska's incisive comments, his expression changed slightly, and then he changed the subject and said: "Maybe... Forget it, let's not talk about this, Mavica is here."
As soon as Shao Yun finished speaking, Mavica walked up to him with a friendly smile on her face.
The sixth hero finally appeared, Nata is saved!
She held out her hand to Chaska.
"Chaska, the sixth hero to save Nata, let's go, everyone is waiting for you."
Chaska looked at the hand that Mavica handed over, nodded, and said with a firm look: "Understood!"
It was then that Mavica noticed the clothes of Shao Yun that Chaska was wearing.
The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she said in a slightly joking tone: "By the way, Chaska, why are you wearing Shao Yun's clothes?"
As she spoke, Mavica reached out and gently pinched the loose fabric on Chaska's shoulders.
Chaska looked down at the "Eastern Legend Suit" on his body, his throat rolled slightly, he swallowed, and an unnatural look flashed in his eyes.
"It's a long story. I'll explain it later."
Mavica noticed Chaska's discomfort, and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she did not continue to ask.
"Okay, let's go first."
……
(Mavica: Why are you wearing Shao Yun's clothes?)
(Chaska: Since we are looking for excitement, we should pursue it to the end.)
(Mavica: You are so sexy.)
(Abedou died...)
……
The appearance of six heroes who rescued Nata heralded a reversal of the situation and the abyss was about to be defeated!
In the square inside the Holy Flame Arena.
Mavica stood in the center of the six heroes, her eyes scanning each of their faces with determination.
She took a deep breath and began her final counterattack.
"Are you ready, everyone? We are facing a brutal war. Please convey your will to win to me."
"So that no one will die, and no one will suffer."
At this time, Maranie stretched out her right hand, and the "ancient name" belonging to her slowly emerged in the palm of her hand, and the light of the night soul shone on her body.
"Before the blood runs dry, please run a flint across the blade, leaving a small light. In this way, the flame will be connected to the gaze of all Nata. Even the eternal darkness cannot separate you and me."
Although Xinoning was injured in the previous battle, she still summoned her ancient name with full energy.
"Flint inlaid with mud, echoing ridges. Gathering, dispersing, embers and then dying out. For the new flames that are born, showing the dawn."
------------
Ianshan recited the prayer devoutly, saying: "The brave climbed the volcano to pick the sun. The flames crowned her, and the light was as dazzling as the stars. Lead me to take the first step."
Olorun's voice was still steady and powerful as he said: "The All-Seeing One feasts for having foreseen his own death. Let us raise our bones and cups and sing a final song to the hero who has done his best. Congratulations on his having gotten what he wanted."
Kinich still maintained his calm tone that never changes, and said: "The past of firewood and the present of flames are all lives that will never turn back. Fire will judge everything you do.
Chaska read out the last words, with a hint of deep emotion in his voice.
"I leave the sufferings of my life as my epitaph. To commemorate that I had them, and to commemorate that I 'surpassed' them."
……
Just as Mavica and the heroes of the six tribes of Nata were preparing to release the power left by the Archon of Death in the Throne of the God of Fire, everything seemed to have settled and the victory of the Abyss seemed to be a foregone conclusion.
However, Shao Yun, who was watching silently from a distance, suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had missed something important.
"Why do I feel like we've missed something?"
At this moment, a dialog box suddenly popped up.
What do you think we have forgotten?
Shao Yun scratched his head, thinking and muttering to himself: "It seems so..."
His voice got lower and lower, approaching the edge of an answer.
However, just as he was about to remember, Mavica and the others released the power in the Vulcan Throne.
The sacred fire burned brightly, emitting dazzling light, like the sun, illuminating the entire Nata.
The light was so strong that the abyss monsters wreaking havoc in various parts of Nata had nowhere to hide and were exposed to the illumination of the holy fire.
Under the influence of the holy fire, the strength of the abyss monsters was greatly reduced.
As the power hidden in the throne was released, Mavica's brows were tightly furrowed. There was no joy on her face, which was in stark contrast to the cheers of the other six heroes.
Malani, who was standing nearby, noticed something unusual about Mavica.
She looked at Mavica in confusion and asked, "Lord Fire God, what's wrong? I can clearly feel that the power has been released, but why are you still so sad?"
Mavica shook her head slowly, as if trying to shake off some uneasiness. Her voice was slightly low and solemn:
"The power has indeed been released, but..."
At this moment, Mavica's pupils trembled violently, and she felt an extremely terrifying scene.
"No! There is a force that is powerful enough to compete with... no, even surpass the power left by the Death Reign. It is interfering with the 'Resurrection Poem'!"
"This means that those who die in the war will still not be able to be resurrected!"
When Kinich heard this, he would not believe it unless it came from Mavica's mouth!
"How is this possible? A power that surpasses the Reign of Death? Could such a power really exist in the Abyss?"
Mavica covered her forehead and forced herself to calm down and said, "It seems that the Abyss has another trump card. This is bad..."
"Without the protection of the Resurrection Poem, this war with the abyss will never end!"
Just as Mavica and the six Nata heroes were in varying degrees of panic, Shao Yun came over.
"I was saying, I left something behind... Now, I remember it."
Mavica looked at Shao Yun and asked anxiously, "Mr. Shao Yun, do you know what the power that interferes with the 'Resurrection Poem' is?"
Shao Yun nodded and slowly said four words.
"Apocalypse: Death."
