virtual realm.
Maria was floating in the air with her legs crossed, and the weapon that was constantly changing its shape stood in front of her.
After that battle, it prompted her to further improve her abilities.
Especially this ultimate weapon, the power contained in it takes longer to fully master.
As she was perceiving, Maria also had a certain understanding of the weapon in front of her.
Although this weapon was made by that weird guy, there is no distinction between good and evil in itself.
The core base of the entire weapon comes from an infinite improbability driver called [Heart of Gold].
This infinite non-probabilistic drive can transform the self-structure of any matter so that it can adapt to the rules of any universe.
What gives the weapon its lethality is the concept of a large number of god-killing weapons in parallel universes.
It carries the historical attributes of various civilizations and is a relic among relics.
When this concept of killing gods is successfully integrated with the [Heart of Gold], it can cause extremely strong damage to the ultimate life in any universe!
At this time, the dreamlike weapon temporarily stopped changing its form and gradually took on the appearance of a long blade.
Maria reached out a hand and took hold of the long handle.
The floating state ended, she stood on the earth again, and her energy began to gather.
"Huh~"
Maria took a long breath, closed her eyes, and connected her body to the long blade with all her senses connected.
The surrounding light particles slowly rotated, approaching her one after another, forming a huge vortex. Immediately afterwards, a little lightning came out of the air and exploded in the space.
Bah!
Maria immediately opened her eyes, igniting some divine light.
"Ho!" She looked serious and swung out the weapon in her hand!
In an instant, the attached light particles suddenly dissipated, the blades were scattered all around, and the flash of light flashed across the kilometer.
The space seemed to be chopped into pieces!
After the attack, Maria sheathed her long sword, and the blade reflected her solemn face.
"I will be the approaching storm..."
Her recovery from desperate situations was definitely not due to luck!
The appearance of this weapon is the next mission she will complete after her rebirth.
At this moment, she could clearly feel that a responsibility was being given to her.
The world is collapsing in a state of imbalance.
All she has to do is to put the world back on track!
After fixing the weapon into a form that could now be driven, Maria stared at the long blade in her hand.
"A weapon that kills people, but it is also the key to salvation."
What exactly is this mission?
To put it simply, it is to go to each separated independent universe and kill the sinners!
Until the world returns to its whole state, it will be considered as fulfilling its mission.
It was a huge responsibility, so big that Maria couldn't believe she could handle it.
To destroy the power of countless universes by yourself is almost the same as committing suicide.
"No matter how small things are, they can have a huge impact. Perhaps, this is also a glimmer of hope for the world..." Maria calmed down and sighed secretly.
She looked at her illusory body that was condensed with energy, and suddenly felt that the road was long and difficult.
"It seems...it can't be repaired."
After some sensing, Maria also found that the missing limb could not repair itself, as if it was fixed to its current appearance.
Although this is not a big problem for me who is a master of psychic abilities, it is still a deficiency of heaven and man, which will still have some impact on climbing to the limit.
After thinking for a moment, Maria gave up.
It’s great if you can survive, so don’t ask for anything more.
After reaching the conclusion, Maria put away her weapon, crossed her legs and floated into the air, and began to explore the use of her abilities.
No matter how powerful the weapon is, it must be driven by the strength of the wielder.
Otherwise, even if the novice village can use the artifact, it will be difficult to survive the aura power of any BOSS.
Therefore, if you want to fully master this weapon and completely liberate its performance, you must improve your strength level.
Fortunately, she has good understanding and talent in this area, otherwise she would not have become a glorious saint.
In this way, Maria entered a state of spiritual practice.
Until, the [instrument of desire] arrives.
At this time, He rarely appeared in the form of Mary, but in the true form.
There is a strange horn on the head, which twists like a gray snake when walking.
The hair is slightly longer and grayish white.
Its body is similar to a humanoid, with a translucent purple film attached to its appearance, and its figure is attractive.
Under the abdomen, there is an open eye, shaking from time to time.
The appearance is somewhat similar to Maria, but slightly more violent.
"Hey, did you miss me?"
Slaanesh stepped into the space, looked at the floating Maria and chuckled.
With every step He took, there were countless arms below grabbing His feet, as if they were supporting Him forward but also seemed to be trying to pull Him down.
Maria slowly opened her eyes, not surprised to see Slaanesh in such a state, with a calm expression: "Can you finally bear it no longer?"
She had known for a long time that this guy had ulterior motives.
It's just that over the years, the two sides have always been relatively peaceful in a state of using each other.
Now it seems that it is probably time to wait for the opportunity.
"Ho ho..." Slaanesh smiled, covered his mouth with Maria and blinked: "We have a tacit understanding."
If you really think of yourself as a follower, it’s time to change your position.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I will only make you my familiar, so that you can always stay by my side and enjoy the tug of desire every moment..." Slaanesh chuckled.
Seeing this, Maria ended her practice, stood up again, raised her eyebrows and looked at the other party: "Thank you for your kindness."
In this magical space, the second battle between virtual realm creatures ushered in.
After Slaanesh put down his cruel words, he stopped talking, his claws popped out from his hands, and he went straight towards Maria.
The purest duel is a fight close at hand.
Just like a wild beast, it uses the life of its opponent to establish its position!
Facing the incoming attack, Maria relaxed her hands, and two daggers condensed with spiritual energy appeared in her hands, immediately attacking the enemy.
The two of them should have had a competition long ago.
As a native virtual creature, mastering psychic powers is as simple as eating and drinking.
Therefore, even though Slaanesh was only born a short time ago, he is already strong enough to travel freely in the Void Realm.
If it hadn't been for His greed, which caused the two to become two-in-one existence, Mary would never have been able to instruct Him to perform the task.
Now, it's time to decide which of the two is left.
"Come and get close!" The claws came with a seductive voice. Slaanesh was in front of her, and the sharp energy spread around, blocking the surrounding space, making Maria unable to move at will.
"..." Maria was speechless, focusing on the energy fluctuations emitted by the opponent, and saw the right moment to intercept the incoming attack without moving her steps.
"Huh?" Slaanesh was a little surprised when he saw that the other party easily dealt with his attack.
"It seems that you have improved a lot after absorbing these powers. However, how long can you resist?"
Then, two more hands extended from His back, reaching straight into the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of arms with dark purple light appeared on the ground and attacked Maria. If caught, it might be difficult to escape.
Maria frowned slightly and glanced left and right at the traps the other party had set up in the space, as well as the indescribable things surging on the ground.
Almost instantly, she twisted her body and jumped up, drawing a full moon with the psychic blade in her hand.
Multiple sharp claws appeared out of thin air, and she intercepted them one by one.
Even with the help of the impact, it moved around repeatedly, and finally landed a little further away.
Seeing Maria landing safely, Slaanesh blinked several times in succession and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to have this hand..."
"In those days when I was walking in the virtual realm, I didn't stand still." After adjusting her breath slightly, Maria said calmly.
"Oh, then I'm going to take it seriously. Don't cry out about pain later."
"Come."
The duel continued, and the purple light flashing in the space gradually increased.
The battle lasted for several hours, but there was no winner.
At this time, Slaanesh began to feel something was wrong. When did Maria become so powerful? Is it completely different from what he remembered?
After the whole battle, Maria was like a ballet dancer, flowing freely and effortlessly in various attacks, without being hurt at all.
"This guy seems to be doing it with ease. Damn it."
After another violent psychic attack, Slaanesh looked at Maria who easily dodged again and felt resentful.
"We can't keep it anymore!" Slaanesh stood there with four hands raised, and his powerful psychic energy gathered a strange dark ball of light. "Let me see how you escape!"
If this attack continues, the surrounding area will become a muddy land contaminated by spiritual energy, and the opponent will have no way to retreat but to face his own attack.
"Who said I want to escape?" Suddenly, a clear voice came.
Just as Slaanesh was about to launch an attack, Maria stepped forward and slashed straight at him with two psychic blades in her hands.
"What!?" Slaanesh could not have expected such a swift and violent attack.
Because of this, the energy He has gathered can only be lifted up and released.
Then, an attack containing Slaanesh's special ability exploded into a burst of mist, forcing the approaching Maria back.
Slaanesh's body melted and suddenly appeared a hundred meters away. He looked at Maria's figure cautiously and said fearfully, "What happened? They are obviously two persons in one body. How could she become so powerful?"
"Didn't you notice?"
A voice came from behind, and Slaanesh, who heard the voice, was stunned and did not dare to move.
Maria struck his back with a psychic blade and said calmly: "We are no longer two entities."
Technically, with her death.
Now Slaanesh has successfully achieved his wish.
A true replacement for Alexia Maria.
It's just that all the psykers of the Holy Glory Empire are still connected here, and everyone still needs the final step to ascend.
"..." At this time, Slaanesh understood everything.
He originally thought that the disconnection between the two was caused by Maria's promotion to a virtual realm creature.
Now it seems that is not the case at all.
Moreover, he was still prepared and waiting for his arrival, just to complete the last step of the plan!
"You want me to replace you as the anchor? Don't even think about it!"
After Slaanesh figured everything out, he suddenly burst into flames and fled towards the outside of the virtual realm.
If this were to happen, not to mention establishing his own Kingdom of God, He would even have to bind himself to the Holy Glory Empire.
"Humph, want to escape?" A cold snort represented Maria's absolute will.
She raised her right hand and clawed at the fleeing Slaanesh.
Slaanesh, who was running away, felt extremely cold and did not dare to observe what was going on behind him.
“ε=(??ο｀*)))I won’t lead a dog so easily..."
…
A moment later, Slaanesh fell to his knees before Mary, sobbing bitterly.
"My dear, please spare me, I don't want to be restrained~"
In the face of His pleading, Mary turned a deaf ear and concentrated on constructing the coordinates of the Holy Glory Empire in the virtual realm and guiding the outflow of energy in this space.
In order to complete her mission, she must at least ensure the safety of her own people before she can leave with peace of mind.
And right now, the virtual creature in front of him is a good substitute.
Maria: "After following me for so long, it's time for you to make some contribution."
Slaanesh: "What!? Haven't I made enough contributions? Heaven and earth can tell! Not only have I shed blood for the empire, I have also made meritorious deeds for the empire!"
Maria: "It's not enough. Since you want to replace me so much, then follow through."
Slaanesh: "I was wrong, I will no longer imitate your face..."
During the time of building the Void Realm, the two kept talking, and Slaanesh always hoped that Maria would let him go.
But Maria was so determined that there was almost no hope.
During this period, an incident temporarily interrupted the conversation between the two.
Maria, who was busy with her work, had an inner thought, stopped her consciousness, and looked up at the sky.
I saw that the gap that had been pouring energy waterfalls was now slowly closing.
"This is..." Maria looked at the gap, curious.
It seems that these powers are not infinite.
Just as Maria was thinking, Slaanesh's pupils flashed: "There is a flaw!"
In an instant, a blow condensing all his power was unleashed, hitting Maria directly on the head!
boom!
Slaanesh was still imagining Maria being killed by his unexpected blow.
He saw a forty-meter sharp blade of light slashing across his side. The power it radiated was pure destruction, frightening him into confusion.
Maria took out the ultimate god-killing weapon and decided to give this guy a little punishment.
thump!
Slaanesh simply knelt down and begged Maria for mercy: "Don't... don't kill me, I was just joking."
Mary stared at Him and hummed softly: "Don't say such things with my face."
That's right, when he was about to die, Slaanesh quickly transformed into Maria's appearance so that the other party wouldn't kill him directly.
Slaanesh lowered his head, hearing it, but it was impossible to change.
Who knows if he will be given a clean blow later.
But he also felt even more confused. What happened to Mary during his absence?
"Ugh... It seems that this disaster is inevitable..." Slaanesh, who was about to cry without tears, lamented bitterly.
In early October of Era 20021, the ascending forces of the Milky Way achieved their first incredible achievement.
The Holy Glory Empire is all promoted to the virtual realm!
Within the eighth star field, those galaxies belonging to them also disappeared into the universe with this promotion...
