At the gunner’s position on the [Diamond Moon], Allegro was carefully calibrating the cursor, preparing for the bombing.

“Massive missiles are ready to be launched, be prepared for impact.”

After saying that, he pressed the button.

“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM—”

Rows of flames were fired from directly below the [Jiaoyue]. Dense groups of missiles were flying in irregular trajectories in the air, heading towards the Black Tide followers below.

The moment the missile landed, it was as if a series of thunders exploded above the earth. The scorching light submerged the dark tide and a circle of violent shock waves erupted at the same time.

Even inside the cabin of the [Diamond Moon], Allewood still felt the violent shock wave – manifested in the form of vibrations and collisions in the cabin structure.

“It’s a very powerful weapon.”

An old voice came from behind him. Alliwood turned his head and saw Hassanka Hafrigad standing behind him, watching everything.

“It is an honor for mankind to receive your recognition.” Alliwood bowed his head respectfully.

Facing the Hafrigard in front of him, Alliwood had heard a lot.

He single-handedly wiped out most of the Black Tide followers west of Huangquan Pass, allowing the Qilang people, who once found it difficult to travel outside the Great Wall, to now establish a frontline base in the central part of the East Continent. This can be said to be a great achievement.

Aloo is an absolute strong man in the military, but to him, Hassanka is far superior to himself.

This time, Hassanka was able to act together with the Federal Air Force. This was not only a long-agreed allocation, but also a wish put forward by Aloo.

He wanted to see for himself how more powerful beings fought.

“…”

At this time, the [Jiaoyue] had already passed over the mountains, and the plain behind Huangquan Pass appeared in their sight.

“Show me the coordinates,” Hassanka said calmly, “I will clear those parts that are difficult for you to clear with weapons.”

“receive.”

Allawood nodded excitedly, shifted his gaze back to the operating table and continued to operate.

……

Beside the dark lake, Laplace stared blankly at Hermes in the center of the lake, unable to speak.

That man was undoubtedly his son, at least in appearance, they were exactly the same.

However, as he looked into those silver eyes, Laplace felt a long-lost emotion in his heart.

–fear.

For some reason, the thing that rose from the center of the Black Lake frightened him.

Every muscle in his body was trembling, as if screaming two hysterical notes at the same time:

Run!

“…”

However, Laplace ultimately did not move a single step.

He just stared blankly at “Herames” walking from the center of the Black Lake to the shore. At first, Herames’ steps were very difficult, like a person wading through a river. But his steps soon became faster and faster, and his whole body accelerated in the shadows, as if those shadows pushed him forward quickly.

He finally reached the shore, and with his arms still flowing with black water, he pushed himself up lightly onto the shore.

The thing that rose from the Black Lake did not look at Laplace. He stretched out a hand and carefully examined the lines on it, feeling his own arrector pili muscles bulging in rows, transmitting the cold to his brain through the nerves.

“It’s so cold.” There was joy in his words.

At this moment, he finally raised his head and looked at Laplace who was staring at him blankly, with an elegant smile on his face:

“Laplace von Valantia, right?”

“Who are you?” Laplace asked subconsciously.

“I’m not sure either,” Hermes narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, “I’ve forgotten a lot of things… No, not forgotten, it’s because this body is not yet able to carry that knowledge…”

“This body…?” Laplace said tremblingly, “My son…”

“He’s still alive,” the man’s words made Laplace’s eyes light up, “but he’s sleeping.”

“Did he ask for it?” Laplace said subconsciously.

“You’re smarter than he remembered,” the man nodded gracefully, “which will make our communication more efficient.”

As they were talking, the sound of soldiers’ footsteps could be heard outside the blockade facility. They had obviously noticed the situation here and were rushing over.

Laplace subconsciously felt that he shouldn’t let the soldiers see Hermes. Just as he was about to do something, Heramus waved his hand lightly, and a dark shadow spread from under his feet.

The shadows gradually spread to the soles of Laplace’s feet, and then enveloped the entire room, making the surroundings become pitch black.

After a few seconds, Hermes waved his hand again, and the darkness around him suddenly dissipated. Laplace was surprised to find that the surrounding scene turned into a small room.

This was Hermes’ room. Laplace had been here when he was sorting out the relics, so he recognized it.

“You…how did you…” The old man’s eyes were a little confused.

“This is the power that shaped the black tide,” the man said gracefully. “You have seen the great power that Hafurgard manipulated, so you should be mentally prepared for this, right?”

“You know Hafurgard?”

“I know a lot, and I’ve forgotten a lot,” the man smiled gently, “Now, let’s talk about a deal… Oh, by the way, before that…”

The man placed a hand on his head, and a shadow blossomed from his palm and then spread into his eyebrows.

He seemed to be extracting something. This process did not last long before a roar spread again:

“Well, I believe you will soon gain the chips to trust me…”

The man lowered his hand from his forehead, and the smile on his face became more elegant:

“By the way, you can call me…Suleiman Agust.”

……

After the [Jiaoyue] cleaned the ground with large-scale missiles, the armored forces on the ground began to advance towards Huangquan Pass at full speed.

With the reconnaissance vision of the [Inverted Sword], three identified [Wolf Leaders] were marked on Edward’s terminal.

“It’s almost our turn,” Edward said, “Harry, Lally, are you ready?”

“Well,” Hali Lali nodded, “As long as we kill these [alpha wolves], then…”

Halfway through her words, a strong intuition burst out, causing the girl to subconsciously raise her head –

“Eh?”

Hallilali stared at the ceiling, her eyes a little unfocused for a moment, as if she saw something.

“Hali Lali, what’s wrong with you?”

As soon as Edward’s words came out, he suddenly felt a shock that seemed to come from beneath the space –

“Buzzing…”

He immediately looked out of the car window and saw a huge shadow sweeping over, dyeing the ground black.

That shadow came from the sky.

Edward raised his head, and then his mouth opened slightly:

“Varied…”

He saw the huge shadow quietly emerging from the clouds.

It was a huge whale-like creature. At this moment, it was swinging its tail and falling from the sky. As it approached, everything around it was stained with a layer of black.

“Edward!”

Before the impact came, Edward only heard the girl’s scream, and then he felt himself being hugged tightly.

The next second, an impact that overturned the heavens and the earth exploded, instantly engulfing his consciousness.

……

Interlude) Odin (Part 6) -4k chapter-

“Commander! The ground forces suffered an unexpected attack! That is… I can’t describe it! Please return to the command center as soon as possible! We need your assistance…”

In the small room, Laplace listened to the information coming from the radio, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on the back of his neck.

He raised his head, looked at the man pacing by the window, and said:

“Are you a follower of the Lord of the Black Tide?”

“【Lord of the Black Tide】?” Suleiman turned around, “I am a follower of Kors Hafgard? No…”

Suleiman walked up to Laplace and smiled gently:

“He’s just a fragment.”

“how about you?”

“I am also a fragment, but closer to the whole.”

Suleiman said, closing his eyes and feeling the flow of shadows in the room.

He quickly seemed to have grasped something, and with a gentle pull, the shadows in the entire room flowed even faster:

“In half an hour, [Black Whale] will destroy your army. This is my bargaining chip.”

“What do you want to do?” Laplace took a deep breath.

“As I said before, a deal.” Suleiman nodded slightly.

“What deal?”

“I know what you want, and I can make it happen…”

Suleiman said as he pulled the shadow again and a faint roar was heard.

These roars penetrated Laplace’s eardrums, triggering one picture after another in his brain.

That was the Star Covenant negotiation from the perspective of Heramius. During that negotiation, Heramius made the following demands to the Hafurgard tribe:

“…the entire picture of the starry sky, and all the truth about this world…”

Suleiman’s voice transcended time and space, overlapping with Hermes’s and echoing in Laplace’s ears.

When he came to his senses, he had already had two streams of blood flowing from his nose:

“you…”

“Descendant of Odin, you are confused about the truth of the Day of Judgment, and this doubt makes you feel uneasy,” Suleiman said elegantly, “Your uneasiness comes from the loss of control over reality. Before the natural disaster, you believed that humans were the masters of the earth and could conquer everything in the world… even the stars…”

“…The black tide that destroyed everything destroyed your delusion. You felt uneasy and wanted to regain control of your destiny, which almost exhausted you…”

“…You are almost pathologically trying to control everything…whether it is the former archons or your two sons…In fact, this is why your son jumped into the Black Lake. I can tell you that he took the initiative to embrace me…”

“…Your desire for control is too strong. This strong desire drives you to grasp the truth of this world, to know what exactly imprisoned humans in a cage. You were backfired just half a step into the voyage, and everything collapsed…”

“…I can give you the truth…”

Suleiman finished speaking, smiled slightly, and looked at Laplace.

Laplace was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and said:

“Those Haf’ergaard also promised to tell me the truth. Why should I trust you?”

“Because you can’t get what you want from Hafurgard,” Suleiman said calmly, “They can’t defeat the Lord of the Black Tide.”

“why?”

“There is a prophecy… which says… that the Sons of God will be punished and killed by the Sons of Man,” Suleiman smiled slightly, “Hafurgaard is the Son of God, and you and I are both sons of man. Those Hafurgaard will die in our hands, in your hands.”

“Die in my hands?” Laplace frowned. “I haven’t decided to do this.”

“No, you have already decided,” Suleiman’s smile became brighter, “Because if you don’t do this, you will never see Hermes again…”

As soon as Suleiman finished speaking, he did something that frightened Laplace.

——He thrust a hand fiercely into his chest and pulled out a black heart.

“No!” Laplace yelled.

“This heart needs the essence of the Hafurgard tribe to survive,” Suleiman gently stroked the heart, “Time is running out. Perhaps in a few days, or perhaps in a few hours, Hermes will die.”

“Now, you are the only one who can save him…”
