Seeing the familiar figure crossing over to support the Water God, Cohen couldn't help but curse in his heart, but he could only stand there and wait quietly. He had met the Source of Life more than once, and he would have known that this Mother Goddess had a very deep heart.
Motherhood, wiping away the tears of children and punishing false gods, the former is always more important.
Sure enough, after comforting the water god who was crying with joy, she slowly turned around and looked at Cohen.
Her clothes are very simple, her face with soft contours is not decorated in any way, and her long silky hair is hung down casually, only fastened with a long crystal gem chain in the middle. There is only an elegant texture on the originally simple robe.
, if you look closely, you will see that this texture is not embroidered, nor is it an emblem or magic rune. Instead, it flows naturally along the fabric, like clouds and mist, slowly transforming into thousands of low-key and gorgeous shapes.
However, the moment the four eyes met, there was nothing else in Cohen's entire field of vision. He only saw the eyes that were the source of life - long and dense eyelashes, the eyelids flickered slightly, and these eyes were as clear as two pools.
The autumn water is as crystal clear as gemstones flashing with strange luster. It has dreamlike colors, but not a trace of dust, and is exuding endless charm.
This charm is so grand that it shocks and makes people feel ashamed, and they dare not or forget it. Even if Cohen did not have any hostility or resistance in his heart, he could not help but take a small step back.
"You can see, I have some changes." After a moment of silence, the source of life spoke softly, "Aren't you used to me like this?"
"How should I put it?" Cohen lowered his eyes slightly, covered his eyes with his hands, and sighed, "Your Excellency... you are too flashy."
This is not an exaggeration by Cohen, it is the truth. He can be sure that the source of life in front of him does not leak any magic power or coercion, nor does it reveal any personality emotions. It can be said to be the most peaceful and gentle posture. But standing beside her
In front of him, it was difficult for Cohen to maintain his identity and mentality. His whole body and mind would be involuntarily attracted... It wasn't until she spoke that he could look away from her eyes. If she were to use magic like charm, there would be no way in this world.
I'm afraid there will be no more conscious creatures.
"It's not because of me, but there are too many things you can perceive now. The me you saw before was difficult to influence you because of my weak strength. And this is my almost complete incarnation, with only a slight reveal of my power.
But it was amplified by your senses and perceptions that exceed ordinary people." After explaining this, the source of life said, "Cohen Keda, my friend, I want to thank you and your companions for their dedication. Under the pressure of 'them'
Awakening my true nature and protecting my growth is a very difficult thing."
"To be precise, it is very difficult, and it is not something I can do alone." Cohen put down his hands, seeming to have adapted to such a source of life, "If there is a second choice, I will never bet the entire
The fate of the group is on the line."
"I am grateful for the sacrifices made by people, and I also cherish the memory of all the lives that have been lost." The source of life spoke softly, with a sincere tone, revealing a subtle and elegant beauty.
Cohen noticed that she was really different at this time than before. Her whole temperament not only became refined and pure, but also deeply restrained.
If the previous source of life was like the big sister next door in Cohen's eyes, then the current source of life has become a real goddess. The meaning of goddess includes beauty, strength, and also indicates something else - she
She may be very easy-going but can't hide the unfamiliarity with each other. You may be able to get closer to her but you can't close the distance between them.
The so-called world of difference is probably like this. It has nothing to do with being high or low, it is just a simple definition of distance between them.
"Of course we remember those who sacrificed their lives." Cohen nodded, his face looking very heavy. "Looking back now, I really don't know what to say about some of the sacrifices. Including this war, too many people died..."
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize that the sadness in your heart is so deep." The source of life stretched out his hand, "Let me comfort you, child."
"I have grown up and know how to control my emotions. Besides, I still have a mother!" Cohen shook his head and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, I have no problem, but I feel more deeply at this time!"
"
"No matter what, it is necessary for successful people to celebrate, right? The fear and emotion at this time will only make the victory firmly remembered by us." The source of life said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry to let you
Accept unplanned things, but emergencies like the Eternal Elemental Array are not within our expectations. Please don't blame the Water God, she can be naughty sometimes."
"I'm not angry because of what happened, it's just that she..." Cohen glanced at the water god who was making faces next to him, and said calmly, "Your Excellency, you know that I can't accept things that go against my will - in the weak
I have stayed in my position for too long, and my self-esteem may be more pathological. I should be fine now, and so should you, right?"
"It's great that you are no longer angry." The source of life nodded happily, "My current state is not far from the perfect body."
"Complete body? How do you say it?"
"This is my body. There is no problem with the appearance. My incarnation echoes my body and is consistent in ability." The source of life pointed to the giant tree behind him, and then pointed to himself, "Take
All the power I returned was used for the growth of my body, but after they took away my power, they seemed to have consumed part of it. Although it was a small amount, it prevented me from returning to my perfect state immediately."
"In other words, you still have a long way to go before you can return to your perfect state?" Cohen couldn't help but ask with concern, because this is related to the overall situation, "If it is not a perfect body, will there be a big difference?"
"Don't worry, I can recover this part of my strength slowly and it won't delay anything." The source of life smiled and said, "However, there is another thing that you need to know now."
"Please tell me." Cohen was not surprised. In fact, he did not expect that things would go smoothly. Having been a leader for a long time, he certainly understood that it would be weird if there were no accidents in such big events.
.
"Would you like to take a walk with me? I know you like this way of talking." The source of life has never been polite to Cohen, and based on Cohen's observation, she has always had this character - even when she was interceding for the water god.
, still very direct.
"Of course, no problem." After Cohen nodded, he also looked leisurely and moved forward side by side with the source of life.
His random behavior stunned the returnees in the distance, because in the minds of these creatures, the status of the Mother Goddess is supreme, and it is very disrespectful to walk side by side with the Mother Goddess. This person, even if he is selected
Neither could he do this. But neither the Source of Life nor the Four Gods stopped him, and it was not their turn to speak, so they could only stare at Cohen's figure with dissatisfied eyes.
As for Cohen, he doesn't pay attention to this kind of gaze. It's not because he can't notice it, but because he's too lazy to pay attention to it.
"When I got the power back from the false god, I felt it and discovered something strange." After walking about ten steps, the source of life said, "Because it was extracted directly, there are still some used parts in the power.
From the traces, I discovered that the level of use of power by the false gods has surpassed that of the Rebellion Day. It seems that they were not idle during the years when I was sleeping. The world-destroying magic that was changed from the Hymn to Life was tampered with
It covers nearly half of the place, and it seems to be a huge magic system."
"Excuse me for being offended, this is not a strange thing. After the false gods mastered powerful power, of course they have to make improvements." Unlike the source of life, Cohen's mentality towards this kind of thing is very ordinary, "Since they can sing the praises of life
If it is changed to world-destroying magic, the use of other subtle powers will of course not be a problem."
"Inspired by this, what I am worried about is that in the subsequent crusade, we may find that they are using other abilities." The source of life said, "The returnees have always followed the original state because of their different inheritance systems. Encounter
If you encounter unfamiliar abilities and usage methods, you may be at a loss and cause greater losses.”
"Loss is inevitable." Cohen looked at her, "What do you want to do?"
"The original plan was that after I regained my strength, I could directly carry out the following tasks, and you would only bear part of it. But now it seems that I may not be able to do it." The source of life looked back at Cohen and said calmly, "You
Do you understand?"
"Your question is a bit strange..." Cohen smiled, "So I can't understand it."
"My friend." The source of life shook his head helplessly, "I really hope you can understand my feelings."
"Actually, I'm not just being lazy, nor am I trying to increase the price." Cohen looked at the source of life and said solemnly, "Sir, to deal with rebellion, it's better to do it yourself."
"I understand what you mean..." The source of life stopped and looked into the unreachable distance, "But it's difficult for me."
"It's difficult? With your intervention, it's all over with just one click!" Cohen was really confused at this time, "What's so difficult about it?"
"In my heart, every time I think about... I can't think about it anymore." The source of life turned his back to Cohen, his tone full of hesitation, "Moreover, during the growth process of my body, I revealed my will in a rough way, which has a negative impact on the entire continent.
It's not a good thing. I must make corrections as soon as possible and announce my return in a normal and gentle way to avoid causing harm. So..."
"So?" It wasn't until this moment that Cohen roughly understood the purpose of the source of life. The so-called magic system used by the false god, the casualties of the returnees, etc. were all just excuses she came up with. She just couldn't deal with the false god with her own hands.
impose punishment.
"Please use your ability to help me end this matter!" The source of life rarely expresses such emotions. This time it seems that he has made a lot of determination, "You have enough ability and wisdom, and my child
They, they don’t have this yet.”
"Sister, you suddenly handed this kind of thing to me, which makes me very embarrassed!" Cohen smiled bitterly, but he threw out the oil-scraping tactic without thinking, "You see, I am an ordinary human being, can
I’ve been lucky enough to get to this point.”
"It's true that you are human, but you are not as ordinary as you said." Seeing Cohen's expression, the source of life put down her anxiety. She smiled and said, "And after today, you and your companions will
You are no longer ordinary humans. Because your bodies have been infused with powerful power, your strength is no less than those of the previous pseudo-god races."
"Is that the ones just now? But I heard that they are just waste products of the eternal elemental array." Cohen shrugged, "Also, although the false god ran away, he did not completely lose his power - speaking of which, shouldn't we defend again?
A while?"
"Although the eternal element array cannot digest this energy, it is just because of the different attributes, which is very suitable for humans." The source of life explained, "After I wake up, the power of the light curtain of the main body will be distributed to the entire continent.
The gods and their men will be severely weakened within this power, so they will not be able to launch a large-scale counterattack."
"Then...to what extent have they been weakened?"
"They still have about a quarter of their strength." The source of life looked at Cohen, "You are not worse than them now. Of course, I am making an estimate based on their state before the rebellion. They were also at that time.
That’s how you are now.”
"Am I so powerful?" Cohen raised his hand to his chest to see, "To be honest, I really don't feel that I have changed much."
"That's because your heart is already very powerful, and the soul power you possess is very unique." The source of life said, "By the way, you were in a hurry when you came out just now, and you didn't have time to accept these things."
"What is it?" Although he knew that it was always a benefit, Cohen couldn't help but be curious, because looking at it horizontally and vertically, the newly resurrected Sister of the Source of Life didn't look like a wealthy person, and the things she could get away with were limited.
"That's it..." The Source of Life held up her palms. As she moved, a flurry of leaves of various colors flew in, circled around Cohen, and then melted into his Genesis armor piece by piece.
The damage from the previous battle was quickly filled, and a fresh breath emerged, giving the armor a brand new look.
"This is the leaf that wrapped you just now. It will also be your second set of armor and weapons in the future. Because it is filled with your breath during the infusion process, it will have a very close relationship with you."
"Is it so wonderful?" Cohen tried to stir his consciousness. The leaves that had disappeared into the armor immediately formed a beautiful shield in front of him. Although it was three arms away from his body, it maintained a flesh-and-blood connection.
It feels like the shield is obviously made of stacked blades, but they are tightly interlocked without any gaps. The surface of each blade is covered with crystal metallic luster, as if it was a deliberately crafted shape.
"It's very tough." The source of life explained from the side. "Ordinary members of the false gods cannot break it."
Cohen thought again, and the shield immediately split into three, five, and seven small shields, until it was completely decomposed into individual blades, slowly rotating around the body. Cohen could change the state of any blade, and there was no lag at all during the transition.
With this kind of thing in hand, ordinary shields are really worthless...
"Whoa!" Thousands of blades flew out in the shape of a fan, shooting towards the direction specified by Cohen. They were dozens of miles away in an instant. The speed was so fast that it could hardly be caught by the eyes, but the connection with the consciousness was still as close as before. Cohen could even attach to his consciousness.
Up there, feel everything there... Just a thought, and the leaves fly back instantly.
Cohen stretched out his hand, pinched a few leaves on his fingertips, and discovered that each leaf was engraved with a unique rune.
"If combined in different ways, they will have different effects. This is a magic system that integrates offense and defense."
"I have to admit that you are actually very imaginative... This is a good thing!" Cohen sighed, thinking of his hard work in building Genesis, and felt that the source of life is full of treasures. Unlike himself, who finally got some possessions,
It always fails quickly.
"As long as you like it." The source of life seemed to know that Cohen would be satisfied, "By the way, there are these."
Seven crystal leaves the size of little fingers fell from the air and slowly rotated above the palm of the source of life: "These seven leaves can allow you to fully control the newly acquired power. Because time is limited, I don't have many ways to use it.
, the things recorded on it still need to be discovered by yourself. Although these previous magic combat skills are not of much help to you now, they can finally allow you to better understand these powers."
Seven leaves stopped in her hand, and instantly merged into another transparent and colorless leaf.
"This leaf has my blessing. Not only can you borrow some of my abilities, but no one can take away your power again." She moved her fingers, and the colorless leaves flew over and stuck to Cohen's forehead.
, slowly penetrate into the skin.
Cohen closed his eyes naturally and felt that the leaves were hanging between his eyebrows, emitting gentle ripples. Perhaps the mortal body could not accommodate such tyrannical power, but the body transformed by the source of life
But no problem at all.
In mid-air, a rumbling sound came.
"They." Cohen raised his head and looked at the people still hanging high in the tree canopy, "Are they the same as me?"
"Of course, they are your companions, and in my heart, you are no different." The source of life nodded again, "They also have everything you have, but the degree is different."
"I have a question." Cohen thought for a moment, "Sir, will our energies have any connection with you?"
"Are you asking whether all this energy really belongs to you?" Source of Life obviously understood Cohen's concerns, "My answer is yes, the power belongs entirely to you. Even I can't take it back."
Cohen nodded with relief, without any trace of shame on his face, and let the water god next to him see what true mercenaryism was. Of course, the latter was so angry that he gritted his teeth but was helpless.
"By the way, Cohen, my friend. Please forgive me for talking about my own affairs and not taking your feelings into consideration." The source of life raised his finger and pointed at the body with a little annoyance, "I think you are expecting something.
It’s been a very long time... Look over there.”
Cohen looked in the direction she pointed and saw at a glance that there was a depression near the main body of the ground. There was a ball made of leaves inside, which was more than twice the size of the one that wrapped him.
"I've seen it a long time ago! I also want to ask you, which bastard has more luxurious packaging than me?" Cohen nodded heavily, "It's completely lawless! I'm going to fine him!"
The source of life smiled faintly, held Cohen's hand, and in a blink of an eye, she came under the main body of the body. Then, she gathered some long hair that was flying around, stared at Cohen with interest, and said, "You really don't know?
"
"Who is it?" Cohen geared up, "Don't dream, I will let him go!"
"Don't you remember the reason that prompted you to look for me?" the source of life said, "the most important reason."
"Hahaha, what's the main reason... It's just..." Cohen's face changed, and a touch of uncontrollable ecstasy slowly appeared on his face, "Yes! It's that! It's that bastard!"
"That's right." The source of life replied calmly, "You are right."
"Can you really resurrect him?" Cohen was at a loss, but his face was extremely excited, "Are you really resurrecting him?"
"Creating life is what I'm good at." The source of life was still very calm, "Although he can't wake up right away, don't you want to see what he looks like now?"
"Of course you have to watch!" Cohen turned around and rushed under the main body. In his ecstasy, he seemed to have forgotten his martial arts and magic. He jumped up and grabbed the hanging vines, and climbed up using his hands and feet!
The depression was not too high from the platform, only about twenty arms at most. However, after climbing half the distance, Cohen's speed slowed down a bit. After climbing a few more times, his speed seemed even slower...
This made the water goddess who was waiting nearby and ready to ridicule him very strange. She knew Cohen's physical strength, and she could climb all the way to the canopy of a tree and build a nest without any problem.
Finally, Cohen reached the ball, within reach. As long as he stretched out his hand, he could pull open the shell of vines and leaves and see the person inside who he had always missed. He stretched out his hand several times,
But after all, I didn't really touch those superimposed leaves.
With a sound of "Boom!", Cohen jumped down. Under the surprised eyes of the water god, he walked to the source of life expressionlessly.
"How much longer?"
In addition to Cohen's bland questions, Water God felt the complex emotions that he was trying his best to suppress.
"About three days later." The source of life answered him.
"I'll come back then." Cohen threw these words and left without looking back. (To be continued)
