Luo Lin's bullets sliced through the square, hitting "False God Otto," and sharp white brilliance erupted from the point of impact, cutting through his body.
"Destruction ends here, and a new star is born from here—!"
In a voice with an electronic processing sensation, the "False God" seemed like a puppet with restricted movement, raising its hand in a frame-drop-like motion, and a golden floating sword flew out from the void behind it, hovering in the air, aiming at Luo Lin.
"This power belongs neither to humans nor to Herrschers."
Luo Lin used the Moon Ring's grappling hook to hook onto the nearby floor, then exerted force from her feet to pull herself up. The jet propulsion device hanging around her waist seemed to sense her intention and adjusted the nozzle slightly, allowing the girl to fly swiftly and gracefully through the air in an arc.
"Ugh...!"
Continuously adjusting her posture, the girl dodged the scorching rays, grazing Luo Lin's body, the bombardment distorting the air, burning bright yellow spots on the ground.
Next, those floating swords came slashing towards Luo Lin. The girl fired her gun, spraying these deadly weapons, directly blasting several floating swords in mid-air.
But there were still floating swords relentlessly pursuing her, and she was too late to turn her gun towards them!
Luo Lin remained calm. The Edge of Taixuan circulated around her, connecting to the short sword hanging behind her—a "Mimicry Form · Xuanyuan Sword"!
"Clang!"
Golden sword energy radiated from the girl, shattering all the remaining swords chasing her, even producing some extra sharpness, directly threatening the "False God" holding a black and gold greatsword not far away!
The 'False God' didn't dodge. The sword energy cut off a wing, but the next second, the missing wing was fully restored. It floated there, lifting the longsword, seemingly intending to do something.
Luo Lin watched this familiar posture. Muscle memories left by countless bombings in the Memorial Arena by "False God Otto," emerged—this raising of the hand seemed to be summoning the chains of "Mimicry Form; Oath of Judah"!
So, the girl didn't hesitate to turn her body, and the jet propulsion device hanging from her waist helped her swiftly leave the dangerous area.
But after a few seconds, the "'False God' still maintained this posture, yet there were no chains of binding bursting out from the ground. Instead, it continued shouting with what seemed like electrified voice.
"Let the soul be quiet!"
While the girl's firearm attacks continued, several question marks appeared over her head.
"What is this guy doing?"
Void Archive observed the counterfeit with a mysterious aura, having gained some authority. Its essence was a self-defense mechanism created by imaginary, similar to the "Shadow" summoned by the "Husk".
However, it seemed to have directly copied the actions of Otto Apocalis on the other side of the imaginary space. Since the battles on both sides were synchronized, the 'False God' could only choose a limited number of attack actions, appearing extremely stiff and rigid.
As for why it didn't release its moves normally just now... that's because this 'False God' in front of them neither duplicated the "Key of Revelation · Void Archives" nor possessed the power of the Herrcher—
Otto Apocalypse had the Divine Key, naturally not bothering to master the authority of the Herrscher. The phantom it copied had nothing, so it could only release empty moves toward the ground.
However, precisely because it is Otto's phantom, its power, like the former Archbishop of Schicksal, continues to grow as time passes.
"It's just a copy of Otto's actions, watch its movements!" the golden cube reminded, "It's best to end it quickly!"
"A copy?"
Several shield-like structures, resembling blooming flowers, condensed in front of the 'False God'. Luo Lin vaguely remembered that this thing was called the Frequency Shield. With continuous bursts of Taixuan energy bullets, she easily broke through the shield's defense and then used projectiles to bombard the opponent, causing it to emit crackling light.
Luo Lin watched as the wounds and gaps she caused were quickly repaired within a few seconds, restoring it to its original state. She gritted her teeth, then turned her gaze to the dim name on the assistance panel.
"System, spend crystals to reset the assistance time! Assistance target—Himiko Murata!"
The next moment, the burning crimson figure suddenly appeared on the field. She raised the still existing "Mimicry Form · Godslayer · Surtr," and the huge X-shaped sword light severed one of the "False God's" arms, causing the black carapace to spiral and fall into the nearby sandy area.
"Teacher Himiko!"
"No time for nonsense, I probably understand the situation!"
Himiko Muratau gripped the sword handle tightly, aiming the bright yellow blade at the gradually recovering "False God."
"Let's go!"
Void Archive looked somewhat astonished at the crimson figure. At the moment when Himiko Muratau appeared, it sensed something.
So, the golden cube laughed heartily, "I see, I see! Luo Lin, now I understand why you attracted the joint attention of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta!"
"Himiko Murata should have been summoned by you, right? I can see the intricate connection between you and her—But this summoning method without going through the Sea of Quanta or relying on the Imaginary Tree, just relying on yourself to cross the barriers of space and time and bringing her to your side!"
Void Archive's words were full of excitement. "And the power you use, although I can't fully understand it now, it's certain that a large part of it is related to emotions—Which happens to match your special constitution!"
"Luo Lin, you're an amplifier capable of magnifying the power of emotions hundreds or even thousands of times!"
Luo Lin was stunned for a moment, then quickly adjusted her positioning, dodging the attacks projected by the "False God" and throwing the grenade she had been holding for a while.
"Someone said before that you emit a gentle light around you, which is the external manifestation of your essence," the golden cube said meaningfully, "You firmly believe in love and hope, believing in friendship. When your special constitution unconsciously magnifies them, the atmosphere and radiance around your body naturally emit such an aura!"
"More importantly, this power can subtly influence everything around it, causing them to evolve, letting those things that are unaware of emotions understand the benefits of this miraculous power, as well as the various miracles born from the power of emotions!"
"Just like how you summoned Himiko Muratau, just like how the another personality of Seele Vollerie from a parallel world is deeply fascinated by you because she desires evolution, to grasp this miraculous power!"
Void Archive paused. Amidst the roaring background of the intense battle, it muttered softly with a sense of relief.
"And just like me, evolving under that brilliant light, understanding my inner paranoia—Contrary to reason, against this cursed mission, sedimented for five hundred years..."
Himiko, Luo Lin, and the "False God."
Kiana, Durandal, and Otto.
The world in the eyes of the Divine Key gradually overlapped—
Under the blazing flames of the Vermillion Knight, the shell of the "False God" was shattered by the greatsword, Luo Lin manipulated the "Mimicry Form Xuanyuan Sword" to cut through the Nihilus seed, firmly piercing it in the center of the square field!
Himiko deftly swung the "Godslayer: Surtr," crushing its final resistance, watching the Nihilus seed dissipate into the wind and sand.
On the other side, the Herrscher of Flamescion lifted Otto, and amidst the dazzling light, Durandal jumped off the warhorse Krishna. She raised her lance, her body taut like a bow, fiercely throwing out the "Midnight's Ataegina," nailing Otto Apocalypse to the golden pillar resembling a cross!
Kiana reached out, and the power of the Herrscher resonated on Otto—she finally achieved the theoretical possibility, and distorting the quantum space around Otto, forcing him into "Quantum Reorganization,"
Making him fall from the realm of the invincible "Infinite" back to the realm of the limited "Finite"!
The world shook, light and shadows intertwined!
"Let your authority be buried with you!!"
"Boom—!"
In the intense explosion, the power of the "False God" completely disappeared.
The mental landscape of Otto quickly disintegrated, allowing Durandal and Kiana to return to the real world, back to the church in Colosthen.
Otto Apocalypse sighed, "Well done, Bianka, Kiana..."
"Well done, Luo Lin, Himiko Murata..."
Void Archive took a deep breath.
"I will fulfill my promise to you immediately..."
