Ah Ying sat motionless on the chair, eyes slightly closed, looking like he was resting his mind or taking a nap.
In fact, she was recovering from her injuries and had been in this motionless and low-consumption state for the past few days.
Her injuries were so serious that it would take many years for her to recover without special treatment.
However, she was more concerned about the situation on the front line than her injuries. In the past few days, good news had been coming from the front line. The whole city was filled with joy, and the entire city lord's palace was filled with joy.
But Ah Ying was not so happy. She had the same suspicion as Xu Cheng. The Golden Supreme King avoided fighting Cronus, which was obviously provoking Cronus to underestimate his enemy.
And with Cronus's character, he would definitely be fooled.
However, Aying still has full confidence in Cronus's combat effectiveness. No matter how many tricks the Golden Supreme King uses, he still has to rely on hard power to speak for himself in the end.
Xu Cheng has not shown his face in front of Aying in the past few days, probably because of the bet and fear of being laughed at by her.
She didn't take this matter to heart. Human beings sometimes talk wildly and speculate about things they don't understand. Sometimes even gods are not immune to this.
Compared with this, Ah Ying is actually more concerned about Xu Cheng's identity.
He became a god in his physical body, and he also used the rare power of thunder and lightning. He would definitely not be an unknown character.
His sudden appearance in Silver Light City was not necessarily a coincidence. Ah Ying could tell that Xu Cheng approached him for some reason and tried his best to escort him to Wanguo City.
At that time, Ah Ying had no other choice but to take the risk and let Xu Cheng protect him. Now it seems that this choice was not wrong, but his identity is the only concern.
Just as Ah Ying was thinking, a slight bell suddenly sounded outside.
"Come in."
A servant walked in cautiously and knelt down in front of Aying.
"Madam, the Lord of the City invites you to meet."
Ah Ying opened his eyes.
She didn't like to be disturbed. Occam rarely appeared in front of her these days. Even if something happened, he should come over in person. Why did he ask her to come over?
"Did he say anything?"
"The Lord of the City said it's about His Majesty the God of War. He can't leave now. He can only ask you to come over in great fear."
Ah Ying frowned slightly, stood up and walked out.
Soon, she returned to Ockham's gold-plated office.
The servants were guarding outside and did not dare to follow in. Ah Ying entered the office alone and saw Occam standing in front of the desk, with his back to him.
Ah Ying's eyes suddenly became sharp.
She had sensed something was wrong.
As if feeling Aying's sharp gaze, Occam visibly trembled, and then slowly turned around.
"Madam, you are here."
Occam was obviously pretending to be calm, but now his face was pale and even his voice was trembling.
"What are you afraid of?"
"No, no!"
Occam was sweating profusely, and his eyes did not even dare to look at Ah Ying.
Ah Ying stared at him coldly: "You don't dare to plot against me. Who instigated you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Occam was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground. He didn't expect to be seen through so easily.
The moment he collapsed, the office door slammed shut, and a golden light lit up outside.
Aying turned around and looked over, through the window, and saw a large number of golden threads emerging outside, like fishing nets, wrapping the entire office, isolating the inside and outside.
Obviously, this is a trap.
"Snap, snap, snap!"
There was applause.
There is also a room in the office that Ockham uses specifically for changing clothes and resting. Applause rang out from inside.
"As expected of a goddess."
Along with the teasing, a young man with short red hair and a strong build walked out of the lounge.
He stopped clapping, put one hand on his chest, and saluted Aying slightly: "This is the first time we meet, my name is Lucid, and I am a member of the Knights of God."
Ah Ying's eyes narrowed slightly: "Glorious Wings, I've heard of you."
"Really? That would be such an honor."
Lucid showed a very happy expression: "Being remembered by the goddess of shadows and death is the highest reward for me!"
Ah Ying looked back at Occam, who was slumped on the ground, like a dead pig. The previous bet between Xu Cheng and her flashed through his mind, and he blurted out: "Did Cronus lose?"
As Cronus's most trusted believer, Occam would never betray her without any reason.
The only possibility is that Cronus lost, and he lost completely.
Was Xu Cheng right?
Okama sat on his knees on the ground, his lips trembling, unable to speak a word.
Yes, the God of War has lost, and he has lost miserably.
He had received urgent information from the front line last night and knew that the God of War fought against the Golden Supreme King last night and soon suffered a disastrous defeat and had already escaped.
The Divine Religion Army took the opportunity to attack, but due to the disastrous defeat of the God of War, the coalition's morale fell to the bottom. They completely collapsed during the Divine Religion Army's attack, and hundreds of thousands of troops were directly destroyed.
After receiving the information, Occam immediately arranged for his close confidants to pack his property and prepare to flee before the enemy came to the city.
However, he had so many possessions that he could not even pack a tenth of them after packing them all night long.
In the early morning, Lucid suddenly appeared in front of Occam and asked about Aying's whereabouts.
Of course, Occam didn't dare to hide it, and then under Lucid's coercion, he arranged today's trap, inviting Aying over, and at the same time instructing Duke to lure Xu Cheng, the only one who could cause trouble, out of the city.
"As expected of a goddess, she guessed the truth of the matter right away."
With a smile on his face, Lucid praised: "Under the glory of our Majesty, the God of War abandoned everything, including his beloved wife and the things he protected, and ran away like a coward."
Ah Ying didn't believe it. Although Cronus was stubborn, reckless, and brainless, he was definitely not a coward.
Lucid's propaganda was probably to undermine the prestige of the God of War and the morale of the gods.
However, even if she doesn't believe it, it's useless to say anything now.
"My lady goddess!"
Lucid took a step forward and said in a sincere tone: "Our Majesty appreciates you very much. This time I came here, Your Majesty has specifically told me that as long as you are willing to surrender, you will definitely have a place in our religion. "
"You're showing off your intelligence like a clown."
Ah Ying said contemptuously: "I know gold quite well. He will definitely demand that I be killed at all costs and completely eradicated, rather than let me surrender."
She is well aware of the virtues of the monotheistic religion. Even if the gods surrender, they will definitely be turned into slaves worse than death. In the world view of the monotheistic religion, there is absolutely no place for heretical gods.
"Hahahahahaha."
Lucid opened his hands and laughed loudly: "That's right. I made it up to advise you to surrender. I originally wanted to see you struggling, but you didn't cooperate at all. It's really disappointing."
"I can take it easy, but you have to satisfy one of my requirements."
Ah Ying looked at Occam standing aside: "Kill him, it's too annoying."
Occam's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly turned to look at Lucid.
Lucid laughed: "Although I know that you don't have the power to resist now, goddess, but it doesn't matter. Who makes me like to help others?"
"My lord...my lord...we have agreed."
Ockham rolled around and rushed over to hug Lucid's thigh: "Didn't you just say that as long as I cooperate, you would spare my life? We made an agreement!!!"
"Shh!"
Lucid raised his finger and made a silent gesture, interrupting Occam's plea: "Don't talk nonsense. I am a member of the Knights of God and should abide by the canon. How can I talk to heretics in private?" How about making such an agreement?"
Okama looked at him dumbfounded, not expecting this man to be so shameless.
Lucid smiled, and kicked Occam's fat pig-like body with a light kick, knocking over expensive furniture and furnishings. With a final bang, he knocked out a large wall made of pure gold. The whole person was beaten to a bloody pulp and was no longer human.
"Look, I've given you what you asked for."
Lucid tapped his toes, and then said to Aying: "Next, it's your turn, stand still, my lady goddess!"
Ah Ying closed her eyes tiredly.
She was wounded by the Great Lord himself. Her injuries were extremely serious and she was unable to even protect herself.
Once found by the Divine Cult Army, there is no chance of survival.
After finally arriving at the City of All Nations, she originally thought she could rest here for a while, but she didn't expect that Cronus, a reckless man, would suffer a disastrous defeat so quickly, causing all her previous efforts to be wasted.
No one can save her now.
Xu Cheng's face flashed through Ah Ying's mind, but she didn't hold out any hope.
Xu Cheng should have been led outside the city by Duke, and he didn't know the situation here in the city lord's mansion. Even if he knew, participating with his strength would probably be a dead end. He might as well take advantage of the opportunity and run as far as he could.
Seeing that Ah Ying seemed to be waiting for death with her eyes closed, Lucid was not careless.
This is a powerful god who can fight with their majesty many times without losing. It does not take a hand to crush him until he is not injured.
Lucid took a deep breath, spread his legs, clenched his fists around his waist, and made a boxing motion.
Golden light began to gather on his fist, illuminating the entire office.
"farewell!"
Lucid stepped on his foot, his whole body shot towards Aying like a stream of light, and punched out.
Ah Ying grabbed the black gem on her body tightly.
This is her last chance.
boom!
The entire golden house shook violently, the fishing net-like trap outside was torn to pieces, and the gold wall burst open, letting in a bright light.
Bang!
The spilled energy formed a shock wave that surged in all directions, destroying all the furniture in the golden room, and then slammed into the surrounding walls with a deafening bang.
The entire golden room shook violently, and countless cracks were broken out in the golden walls.
Aying opened his eyes in surprise and saw a familiar figure from behind.
Xu Cheng arrived in time and caught Lucid's fist.
"Tsk!"
Lucid stared at Xu Cheng's face and made an extremely unhappy sound.
He had obviously calculated the time, and before Xu Cheng rushed in, he killed Aying with one blow, so that the other party could see but couldn't save him, and then showed a look of regret.
As a result, Xu Cheng's speed was beyond his expectation and he arrived in time.
"Boy, I purposely didn't look for you first, but you still dare to come here again."
Lucid threatened fiercely: "Are you ready to die?"
"I'll be your mother!"
Xu Cheng said nothing and used practical actions as his answer.
boom! !
A thick bolt of lightning fell from the sky and instantly penetrated the dome of the City Lord's Mansion.
Before Xu Cheng rushed over, he had already collected the electrons in the entire sky above Wanguo City to form the Thunder God's Staff.
The Thunder God's Staff was an unavoidable attack, and it hit Lucid who was electromagnetically locked.
The entire golden house was instantly enveloped in the bright light of lightning, and the surrounding golden walls melted rapidly under the high temperature.
Finally, the highly concentrated lightning energy exploded with a bang.
In the center of the city lord's palace, a violent explosion ushered in. Countless thick thunder snakes wandered around, flying up the floor and plants, breaking through the surrounding buildings, and finally creating a ruin.
Xu Cheng held Ah Ying in both hands, jumped out of the explosion range, and landed in the garden in the distance.
Ah Ying looked up at his face. He didn't say why you came, but said quickly: "He is a member of the Knights of God. You are no match for him. Leave quickly."
Xu Cheng looked down at her.
"Then do you want me to leave you and run away by myself, or do you want me to run away with you?"
"It will be all right."
Ah Ying said calmly: "It depends on your own choice."
"You haven't paid me the reward you owe me. If I leave you and run away now, wouldn't it be a huge loss?"
Xu Cheng raised his head and looked at the sky above the City Lord's Mansion.
After the thunder light dissipated, Lucid slowly flew up from the destroyed golden house and hovered in the air.
After taking a shot from Thor's Staff, not only was he not injured, his hair was not messed up either.
Xu Cheng's heart couldn't help but sink. Although Aying had said it before, it was only after fighting in person that he was sure that these knights of gods were difficult to deal with.
Lucid, like himself, also became a god in the flesh.
"You didn't take the opportunity to escape?"
Lucid looked at Xu Cheng and Aying below, slightly surprised.
He originally planned to give Xu Cheng and Ah Ying time to escape, and then tease them like a cat catching a mouse, but he didn't expect Xu Cheng to be so bold as to dare to stay.
"Escape?"
Xu Cheng put Ah Ying down, sneered and said, "Your boss, Huang Jin, is a defeated enemy of mine. He doesn't even dare to fart when he sees me. Don't you know?"
This is true, although it happened in later times.
Seeing Xu Cheng insulting the Golden Supreme King, Lucid's face suddenly darkened, and his whole body turned into an afterimage in an instant, shooting towards Xu Cheng at several times the speed of sound.
Xu Cheng grabbed Ah Ying with his backhand and threw him far away.
Lucid rushed towards him and threw out a punch, Xu Cheng raised his hand to parry.
boom!
The floor he was standing on collapsed instantly, forming a depression hundreds of meters wide.
The shock wave created by the collision between the two sides swept through the entire city lord's palace, lifting up countless buildings and vegetation along the way.
Ah Ying was thrown out and flew in the air for a long time, and did not fall until he flew out of the city lord's mansion.
She adjusted her posture and landed safely on the top of a tall building.
Looking up, the city lord's mansion was filled with dust and smoke, and nothing could be seen clearly.
She did not take the opportunity to leave, but frowned and stared in that direction.
Most of the area in the city lord's palace has been destroyed and turned into ruins all over the ground.
In the center of the ruins, Lucid's fist was caught by Xu Cheng with one hand.
He looked gloomy and said coldly: "Who gave you the courage to insult our Majesty?!"
The corners of Xu Cheng's lips curled up slightly: "Of course it's Liang Jingru."
Lucid didn't understand, but it didn't matter. What he had to do now was to make this man completely regret it.
He pulled back his fist, kicked the upper end forward, and kicked Xu Cheng's chin with his toes.
Xu Cheng raised his hand to block, and his palms and toes collided. The huge force once again turned into shock waves and surged in all directions, scraping out a thick layer of soil from the already collapsed surface.
Lucid immediately followed up with a backspin kick, hitting Xu Cheng's neck.
Xu Cheng blocked with his elbow, stepped forward, and stamped his foot on the ground, causing the ground to tremble.
He aimed his palm knife at Lucid and struck it down on the head.
Lucid clasped his hands together, clamped the palm knife that Xu Cheng had struck, and jumped up at the same time, hitting Xu Cheng's chest with his knees.
Xu Cheng ducked sideways, hooked Lucid's feet, and threw him to the ground like a sandbag.
Lucid wrapped his other foot around Xu Cheng's hand, and they both fell to the ground at the same time.
boom!
The ground trembled again, and the moment the two men fell, a bottomless crack opened in the ground.
Boom boom boom boom
The two sides have been fighting in close combat, each punch and kick carrying terrifying power, causing damage to the surrounding environment comparable to a natural disaster.
Both Xu Cheng and Lucid have become gods physically. Ordinary fists and kicks cannot hurt each other at all. Their martial arts, which have been honed to the extreme, are almost the same, and no one can take advantage.
Not everyone can turn their martial arts into a power like the Golden High King or Cronus.
After a few minutes of tentative attacks, Xu Cheng and Lucid used their abilities at the same time.
Lucid's whole body glowed with golden light, and his strength and speed increased greatly, surpassing Xu Cheng at once.
Xu Cheng entered the body of the God of Thunder, raised his hand, and high-concentration thunder and lightning spurted out, forming a lightning sword with a temperature of 100,000 degrees, and struck Lucid head-on.
Lucid directly used his body to block the attack and smashed the oncoming thunder sword. The powerful Heart of God was not afraid of this attack at all.
Xu Cheng controlled the electromagnetic field and instantly covered the entire city lord's palace, but the electromagnetic field could not affect Lucid, who had become a god in his body.
Dark clouds gathered, and at Xu Cheng's call, countless thunderbolts fell from the sky, turning the entire city lord's palace into a terrifying minefield, and all buildings were shattered by the thunder.
"Don't use this kind of tickling attack to embarrass yourself."
Lucid's whole body was bathed in thunder and lightning, as relaxed as being drenched in rain. He taunted loudly and rushed towards Xu Cheng again.
Xu Cheng was directly broken into parts, and his whole person turned into countless electrons invisible to the naked eye, scattered in the electromagnetic field.
"Do you think I can't catch you like this?"
Lucid sneered, and dazzling golden light erupted all over his body. Each beam was a sharp lightsaber, cutting off all materials within the scope of the golden light, including Xu Cheng's body that was reduced to pieces.
Countless electrons were being destroyed constantly, and he had to merge into one body and use the Heart of God to resist this large-scale attack.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
With loud laughter, Lucide rushed forward like lightning and punched Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng raised his hands to parry, and his whole body was shot away like a rocket, smashing through the walls of the city lord's palace and breaking through the walls of countless buildings along the way. The huge power he carried plowed a deep ravine on the ground.
Lucid, who was bathed in golden light, caught up and stepped on Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng entered the body of the God of Thunder again and dodged at a faster speed.
boom!
Lucid stepped on the ground, and the entire City of Ten Thousand Kingdoms shook violently.
The ground collapsed, and the surrounding buildings continued to collapse as the ground poured down. Countless citizens screamed and screamed.
In the blink of an eye, a huge crater with an area of more than 1 kilometer appeared.
Lucide chased after Xu Cheng again.
Xu Cheng flew out of the city as fast as he could, not wanting to accidentally injure people during the fight inside the city.
But Lucid saw Xu Cheng's plan. To him, all the residents in this City of Nations were heretics and were meant to die. They happened to be cleared out in the battle.
He was covered in golden light, his speed became faster, and he caught up with Xu Cheng in an instant, raising his hand and waving.
The golden light on his arm emitted outwards, forming a golden giant sword several kilometers long, sweeping forward.
Xu Cheng bent down to avoid it, and the golden giant sword swept across his back, cutting all the human and animal buildings within several kilometers into two pieces, killing tens of thousands of people in an instant.
"Keep running."
Lucid sneered: "I will kill all the millions of citizens in this city, and they will all die because of you."
Xu Cheng stood up slowly, indifferent to Lucid's words, thinking about how to defeat him.
The power and intensity of the God's Hearts on both sides are equal. Lucid was able to use golden light to strengthen his body, but Xu Cheng's thunder and lightning attacks were unable to affect his God's Heart. The level was still too low.
However, no one stipulates that thunder and lightning must be used against the enemy.
"Are you done?"
Xu Cheng's body shimmered with electric light, and countless tiny electric snakes swam on his skin: "I've been chatting endlessly, do you want to fight?"
Lucid was slightly startled. Xu Cheng seemed so calm when faced with his statement that he wanted to kill all the residents of the city.
This is obviously not an enemy that can be kidnapped morally.
Lucid sneered: "If you are so eager to die, I will help you."
He was bathed in golden light, as if falling from the sky like a shooting star.
Xu Cheng attacked directly.
The two sides collided fiercely in the air.
boom!
A horrifying shock wave like a nuclear explosion surged in all directions, destroying all buildings along the way and taking away the lives of countless ordinary people.
"you?!"
Lucid looked at Xu Cheng in surprise, wondering why his strength and speed suddenly surged.
The electric light on Xu Cheng's body flashed, and he was using lightning to stimulate all the cells in his body, squeezing out more powerful power and speed.
"You're stupid, I can cheat too."
He would throw a punch at Lucid's face, but he would raise his hands to block it.
The huge force made Lucide's arms numb, and he flew out like a meteor, with Xu Cheng following closely behind.
