"Heitong, after I die this time, the contract between us will be terminated, and you will be completely free.
Now that the empire has ceased to exist in name only, and you are no longer the black boy you were before, how about you try to live for yourself in the future?"
Hearing what Wood said, Heitong felt very entangled in her heart at this moment. As the person who gave her a second life, Wood was undoubtedly her great benefactor.
She used to live for the empire, and then she changed her life for Wood because she was rescued by Wood. It seemed that she had to rely on a certain existence to survive, but now Wood wanted her to live for himself.
She and Wood were enemies before, and then she became Wood's subordinate. The relationship changed so quickly that Black Boy's emotions were always very confusing when facing Wood.
However, this time Heitong understood her true inner thoughts. She didn't want Wood to die like this, so she planned to prevent Wood from using the Heart of God.
However, it was a pity that before the black boy here took action, Wood had already appeared in front of her and put the knife on her neck.
"Please don't stop me, this is also my last order to you.
If you really don't intend to obey orders, then I can only treat you the same way I treated Ma Yin.
I don't know what you are thinking, why you all want to stop me.
Is it a shame that I can save so many people with my own life? Moreover, my current body is already riddled with holes. Even if I don’t use the power of God’s Heart this time, it probably won’t take more than a year to recover.
Alive.
Rather than leaving this meaningless year behind, I would rather use it to do something meaningful."
As Wood's words fell, the rune characters on his chest suddenly burst out with extremely bright silver light.
At the same time, Wood, who was holding a long sword, also let out a roar of filial piety and called out the last Winter Knight!
The four-meter-tall blue knight stood on the ice field, and a bright silver light erupted from its chest.
As the snowflakes on the sky fell again, a beautiful aurora, which only appeared in extreme ice areas, suddenly appeared in the sky like a curtain.
"Holy level healing magic·The smile of the healing goddess!"
Hei Tong, Chelsea, Lan, and even the little emperor, who were still conscious at the scene, seemed to have witnessed the so-called "miracle" at this moment, with their eyes wide open and a stunned expression.
The injuries on Tazmi and Chidou can no longer be cured by the previous "intermediate" or "advanced" healing magic.
Originally, even if Wood overused the power of God's Heart, he could only use advanced healing magic in this world.
However, this time, with the power of evolution of the Winter Knight's secret skills, his limit was exceeded again.
The Holy Light Magic and the Smile of the Healing Goddess can not only heal the injuries of broken limbs and arms, but can even eliminate various abnormal conditions on the body.
Under the beautiful aurora, a beautiful goddess holding a scepter appeared in mid-air, and cast a burst of green starlight with a charming smile. Only then did Chelsea and the others truly see what is so-called.
Miracle!
Under this burst of green fluorescence, both the black poison on Chitou and the "dragon transformation" phenomenon on Tazmi were retreating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As for Lubbock and Hill, who had already lost their arms and legs, something completely unbelievable was happening to their bodies at this moment.
Under the shroud of green fluorescence, new flesh and blood began to appear on their broken arms and legs, followed by meridians, and then skin...
Everything is getting better. In just a few minutes, the members of "Night Raid" who were still dying before were being healed at an alarming speed and gradually recovered.
Compared with Tazmi and others who are recovering from their injuries and their auras are gradually stabilizing, as a magician, Wood's silver hair, which was originally due to the consumption of vitality, is like flying snow at this moment, constantly falling.
The head withers and falls off.
Its originally strong and angular muscles seemed to have been drained of all nutrients at this moment, becoming dry and flat again at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And as the vitality continues to pass away, it is not only the heart of God that has side effects on Wood's body, but also the corrosive power of the Winter Knight, which is also very costly.
As his vitality gradually ebbs away, Wood's body becomes increasingly less resistant to the corrosive power of the Winter Knight.
Pieces of blue dragon scales, which had been "dragon transformed" since the beginning of his body, erupted again and spread to his whole body at an alarming speed.
Just like the sharp teeth and tail of a dragon began to appear on Wood's body, now he seems to have lost sight of the handsome young man he once was, and has completely turned into a "monster" with a flat body.
The aurora disappeared in the sky, and the beautiful goddess with a loving face finally slowly disappeared into the sky. The snowflakes in the sky were still falling slowly, but a certain figure standing on the snow was completely gone.
To live and breathe...
Seeing the scene in front of her, Chelsea covered her mouth and cried bitterly. Hei Tong seemed to have lost his mind and collapsed directly on the snow.
As for those companions who were bathed in the holy light and finally woke up, when they first regained consciousness, they were still wondering why they were not dead.
However, when they saw the figure that looked like a "humanoid monster" standing in front of them, and the Winter Knight, the Imperial Equipment embedded in the ground, they seemed to understand something quickly.
Wood has the power to heal others. This is no longer a secret in "Night Raid" after what happened with Brand.
Brand once said that using this power to heal others would have a great impact on Wood himself.
The injuries they suffered this time were so serious that it was logically impossible for them to survive. But now they have all survived, and the number of people who have been rescued is so large. Even with your feet, you can imagine that Wood will be affected by this.
At what price.
Tazmi, Lubbock and Hill looked at the dead Wood standing in front of them and burst into tears on the spot.
Najexita and Brand fell into a long silence. Looking at the dead Wood, they fell into a state of silence. Finally, they said with a wry smile at the same time: "I was saved by you again, but you...
Never leave me a chance to repay my kindness."
Like a madman, Leonai clenched his fist and punched the ground one after another, even cracking the skin of his arm that had just recovered, so that the blood dyed the snow red.
Chitong was in a state of confusion as he kept approaching the dead Wood. He was about to reach out and touch him, but was interrupted by a sharp shout from Ma Yin who regained consciousness.
After the pink-haired girl regained consciousness, looking at the now-dead figure of Wood, she immediately swooped over like a walking zombie.
And he didn't mind at all. Wood, who had now turned into a "humanoid monster", stretched out his hands and hugged him directly, letting out a heartbreaking cry.
However, as if to say a final goodbye to the girl and companion, the moment Ma Yin hugged Wood's body, his body also lost its final support, and began to resemble an ancient cultural relic, with the arms starting to weather visibly.
.
"No..., I don't want this. You clearly promised me that I would survive, and you also said that after overthrowing the empire, you would always treat me to free cakes..."
Wood, whose body was constantly being weathered, began to turn into dust. As a gust of snowy wind blew by, his body began to disintegrate rapidly, and turned into dust and was blown into the sky.
Ma Yin wanted to reach out and catch it, but the flowing wind carried dust and passed through her fingers, so that her hands kept waving in the air.
"ah------!"
She obviously wanted to retain her, but in the end nothing could be retained. In the end, the girl's efforts were in vain and she could only let out a heartbreaking cry in the snow.
In order to save the dying Tazmi and the others, Wood's last vitality was completely drained by the Heart of God.
Not only his life, but even his physical vitality was squandered in the end, so much so that he managed to leave his body behind, only to be turned into dust by a wisp of breeze.
This battle finally came to an end, and it stood for a thousand years until the corrupt empire was finally overthrown.
The culprits, Minister Ernest and General Bude, as well as Esdeath, the strongest in the empire, are dead. The little emperor has been captured again, and the entire empire has ceased to exist in name only.
In this battle, the revolutionary army also had a hard time, because Esdeath's continuous attacks and killings left only ten soldiers and cadres alive. Although they later took over the empire, the kingdom did not completely stabilize.
Although the Empire was defeated, Esdeath's previous wealth was completely depleted by the Revolutionary Army.
However, on the empire's side, although the imperial capital was in chaos, and several important leaders of the empire were either killed or captured, the empire's huge army was not seriously injured.
If the revolutionary army is still strong, these imperial armies will naturally surrender obediently. But the point is that the revolutionary army now has less than tens of thousands of troops left, and even the generals and cadres are barely there. Why should they let the millions of their empire
Is the army weak?
Many imperial generals who had ulterior motives long ago took advantage of the chaos in the imperial capital to leave the imperial capital with their troops, seize some of the empire's territories, and become self-respecting emperors with troops.
A few imperial generals who had conscience in the first place looked at Najexita's face and chose to be loyal to the new empire.
And because the empire and the revolutionary army were fighting to the death, both sides suffered losses, and the alien races on the borders around the empire became ready to take action again.
In order to stabilize the chaotic situation in the empire, the young emperor and some corrupt imperial nobles who had been caught before were eventually pushed to the execution stand.
Compared with the imperial nobles who cried bitterly and cried for their father and mother, the little emperor who was finally executed was calm and calm, unlike a child.
He had no fear of death, but looked at Najeshita and said: "I hope you can govern this country well and don't let the people of this country suffer anymore.
Don't make the same mistake again and let people like Wood stand on your opposite side."
Nowadays, the little emperor has completely awakened. It turns out that there are really people who can calmly sacrifice their lives for their dreams and others. Unfortunately, he woke up to all this too late.
The execution of the old emperor greatly frightened those with ill intentions in the empire, and the little emperor finally died a worthy death.
After the empire was overthrown, people like Akadou, Mayne, and Leonai originally thought of retiring.
But now that the revolutionary army in control of the empire has declined, and the rebellious former imperial generals are causing chaos in the empire's territory. Coupled with the unrest of the alien races on the border, Najexita has once again found these partners, hoping that they can fight for the people of the empire.
Fight again.
Tazmi fulfilled the agreement she made with her childhood companions and became a general of the empire. Now she is responsible for fighting in all directions and cleaning up the rebellious generals and armies of the original empire.
Will and Brand also became imperial generals again, responsible for the imperial navy and the alien races in the north respectively.
Najeshita took the place of General Bude and became the head of all officers. Lubbock was still willing to be Najeshita's bodyguard, and Lan became the secretary.
Leonai became the chief instructor of the recruit unit, and Hill became the chief commander of the logistics unit.
The two sisters, Black Boy and Red Boy, settled their differences. Black Boy rebuilt the assassination force, but changed the cruel training method of the previous empire and focused on cultivating assassination skills.
Together with Brand, Chitong has been fighting against the alien races on the border for years. Now he has replaced Esdeath and become the second alien race to be feared.
Chelsea formed the empire's intelligence force and served as minister, responsible for collecting all intelligence inside and outside the empire.
Ma Yin was originally appointed as the commander of the empire's long-distance combat force, but in the end she rejected Najexita's kindness and chose to build a log cabin at Wood's tomb and live a secluded life.
.
"When the expedition was approaching, Tazmi, Brand and Chitong all came here again, and looked at Wood's tomb and fell into deep thought."
This grave is only Wood's burial mound, because when Wood died, he didn't even leave his body behind, only the clothes he was wearing.
Of course, the Teigu Winter Knight was also sealed in its tomb. After all, no one except Wood could use this Teigu.
"Ma Yin, do you really plan to spend your life here?"
Wood's death was a severe blow to everyone in the "Night Raid", but the one who was most brooding about him, and who has been unable to get over it, was Ma Yin among them.
"As Wood has said before, no matter how dynasties change, there will always be corrupt rulers.
Instead of working for those in power, it is better to choose a quiet place to live in seclusion.
Of course, if my companions are in danger, I will not stand idly by, after all, this is also Wood's wish..."
