Berserk Sea is deep inside the mausoleum where there is no real path to reach.
Azik walked down the steps step by step and came to the center of the tomb, where the black mist was slowly dissipating, revealing a huge thing that was half illusory and half real.
It was a Feathered Serpent with a tail that was entangled like a mountain, and wings that were tightened like a cliff. Its huge dark green scales exuded the same color as the mist, and feathers stained with light butter emerged from the gaps. They were connected to countless thin black tubes that pointed all around, into the void, and to nowhere.
Countless complex symbols kept pouring out and dissipating inside its somewhat illusory body, which seemed to represent various mysterious knowledge, and made Azik feel trembling from the bottom of his heart.
But what surprised him the most was the head of Feathered Serpent. The head like a boulder on the top of a mountain had a bronze-skinned human face, with eye sockets burning with flames, a tall but soft nose bridge and cheekbones, and a black mole could be seen under the right ear.
It has a face like Azik Eggers!
Just as Azik was staring at it, it was also staring at Azik. The pale flames in its eyes gradually increased, causing Azik below to be pierced into the head by an invisible wedge. With a buzzing sound, he shook his head and lowered his head.
In the pain that tore apart his soul, he recalled strange memory scenes one after another.
In the dead silence of Earth Mother, next to the mountains of corpses, a Feathered Serpent that looked exactly like him was floating, with black clouds made of various skulls stacked above it.
The dark tentacles stretched out from inside the cloud, wrapped around Feathered Serpent's body, pulled out his Spirit Body, and his body fell to the ground exhausted.
In the skull cloud, a pair of eyes with pale flames like candles in the wind looked at Spirit Body. A polluted feather fell down immediately, splitting Spirit Body in two. Half of it was taken into the arms by the tentacles and entered the cloud. The other half was mixed with a gold ornament to become Spirit Body, which was half gold and half gray. It returned to the inside of Feathered Serpent amid the burning of pale flames.
The face of Feathered Serpent in his memory gradually overlapped with the face in front of Azik, allowing him to recover the last part of his missing memory.
That was the truth that he Reincarnation and resurrected again and again but never came into contact with.
That is the reason why he often loses his memory and can only integrate into society as an ignorant human body and become a variety of different identities:
Half of his soul was torn apart and left his body, becoming the Feathered Serpent in front of him that looked exactly like him!
"Salinger... Father?"
A name came out of the back of his throat.
That is the father of Azik, the true ruler of Balam, the Nether Emperor of "Four Emperors War", the essence of death, the lord of the dead, and the final destination of all living things.
"Death" Salinger.
At the end of Pale Calamity, God, who surpassed True God and became even crazier, had a premonition of his own end, but was unwilling to die just like that, so he left a back-up plan to keep himself alive with a hope of resurrection: He divided his own children, "Death Consul" Azik Half of the soul was filled with a certain item and returned to the body, and the other half was combined with the "Uniqueness" of the original Pathway to become the current Artificial Death. It gradually recovered and began to actively influence "Death" through High Sequence Beyonder who failed to be promoted.
Azik, who lost half of his soul and was filled with foreign objects, walked into the new Reincarnation through the resurrection rituals of Sequence 4 and "Undying" again and again, regained some of his memories again and again, and ended his life again and again to prepare for the "next life".
Until he got closer and closer to the "truth", and even came here on his own initiative, and the other half of his soul was now ready to combine with it and become the cold and crazy "Death Consul" again.
At that time, Azik Eggers, who has returned to the peak of his strength and obtained "Uniqueness", will forget everything he cherishes and become the monster with a snake body and a human head that Pale Calamity was, and become the real Death who is full of divinity but without any humanity!
He will forget Klein and Angel behind him!
Feeling that although they were hiding behind the sarcophagus and closing their eyes tightly, they were always focusing on him. Azik Affliction knelt on the stone steps, resisting the pressure from Feathered Serpent and from the bottom of his heart, and let out a roar:
"No!"
He didn't want to be the powerful and cold "Consul" in the words of "White Saint" Katarina. He didn't want to be the self sitting on the skull throne deep in his memory, and he didn't want to forget everything he cherished now.
Azik was lying on all fours like "Hell Admiral" Ludwell who had knelt before him, his body crawling, his bronze face covered with sweat. Drops of sweat fell on the stone steps that had not decayed for thousands of years, turning into a spreading light butter stain and giving birth to fine white fluff.
Contrary to his inner thoughts, the huge Feathered Serpent above Azik longed for the other half of his soul and wanted to be whole again. Its wings gradually stretched out, covering the top of the huge mausoleum. Half of the snake's body slowly approached, and the huge human face that looked the same as Azik hung above Azik kneeling on the stone steps, with pale flaming eyes watching his struggle indifferently.
"No..."
Azik roared again, but the momentum was much weaker than before. His head that was close to the ground gradually lifted up, and dark scales appeared on his neck and the back of his hands. A bulge appeared on his smooth forehead, and the bleeding wound from the inside flashed a golden light that should not appear in Death Mausoleum.
It was the item in Azik's memory that repaired half of his soul, a gold ornament that looked like a flaming bird.
The moment the ornament appeared, Azik's eyes turned into the same pale flames as Feathered Serpent, and his body stood up from the stone steps, staring at his own face above his head that was magnified countless times.
The expression on his face showed struggle and reluctance, but he walked slowly towards Feathered Serpent.
Listening to Mr. Azik's roars mixed with fear, regret and unwillingness, Angel's closed eyes trembled slightly, but he did not dare to open them because of his previous instructions.
What happened to Mr. Azik, who had almost restored Sequence 2's strength? He shouted "Salinger", was that his father? There was no sound of fighting after that, and there was no movement from the other side, just a deathly silence after a few roars, and the gradually spreading aura of death.
The battle was over in an instant? Did Mr. Azik win? Or maybe he is in a crisis that he cannot solve on his own and needs our help?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Angel touched Klein beside him and grabbed his hand wearing "Creeping Hunger". The latter also held his hand tightly, and the two silently sensed each other's body temperature.
He thought so too...Angel felt warm in his heart and made up his mind.
If Azik has the advantage, then it shouldn't be a big problem for them to open their eyes and take a look at the battlefield situation. If he is already in crisis, then the intervention of the two people may tilt the balance in their favor!
Even though I am just a Demigod, I have an effective attack on Angel... Angel Persuasion in his heart, said to Klein in a low voice:
"Let me take a look first. Your Sequence is not enough."
If Angel levels of power are attacking and defending each other behind the sarcophagus, Klein, who does not even possess divinity and is extremely fragile, may fall into complete madness as soon as he opens his eyes and turn into a puddle of shapeless worms and Flesh Chunk on the spot.
And I can hold on for a little longer... Angel took a deep breath, suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time took out his own Magic Mirror from the inner pocket of his chest. A wisp of black flashed across his eyes and mirror at the same time.
Above her head, the air temperature dropped sharply, and the thick condensation mist formed into crystal clear Ice Mirror. They reflected weak light from each other, transmitting the scene behind the sarcophagus and in the center of the tomb through the "mirror channel" to the Magic Mirror in Angel's hand.
It was Feathered Serpent, who was as big as a mountain and had a familiar face. It was Azik, who was slowly approaching, stumbling, with a struggling expression. And... there were countless flashing symbols and the knowledge they represented inside Feathered Serpent's illusory body.
Boom——
Angel felt like her head had been hit by a giant hammer, and the tissues inside had been beaten into paste, and were being stirred by a hot stick. Almost boiling liquid flowed out of her mouth, nose, and ears, leaving only the murmurs and screams that kept echoing in her mind.
It was her own scream.
Boom, another muffled sound made Angel recover a little. Only then did she realize that she had collapsed on the ground with her back against the sarcophagus. The sound was caused by her head hitting the coffin.
With the help of this pain, the lost reason finally returned to the brain.
Blinking his eyes stained by his own blood, Angel's eyes returned to the Magic Mirror in his hand with difficulty. First, he saw that his long pale golden hair had become thicker and became a There were venomous snakes with single eyes or spitting out letters, then purple eyes that had lost the whites of their eyes, like pure gems, and finally Feathered Serpent and Azik reflected in the mirror.
When fighting the pollution of "death", I had already entered the incomplete Mythical Creature Form... She recalled the knowledge Azik had told her, and understood her current state. She knew that this state could only last for a moment, and then it would slip into the abyss of out-of-control. After hesitating again, he took out a "Petrification" Charm from the bag, poured the Spirituality in his body that had become less stable, and pressed it directly on the figure belonging to Feathered Serpent on Magic Mirror.
"Petrification!"
Above her head, patches of Ice Mirror turned gray, shining the same color of light towards Feathered Serpent, whose face was indifferent and waiting for Azik to approach, focusing on the most vulnerable position between its spread wings.
On those dark green and pitch black scales, a touch of grayish white appeared, spreading from the size of a fingertip in the blink of an eye, occupying almost one-fifth of Feathered Serpent's mountain-like body. Feathers fell like rain, and the yellowish oil stains on them seemed to be replaced by grayish white. When they fell to the ground, they made a sound like a heavy object falling to the ground.
But in the next moment, the surface turned gray, and Feathered Serpent's body, which was almost covered by Petrification, was shrouded in black mist pouring out from the gaps in the scales. They quickly repaired the damaged position, allowing the darkness to cover the gray again. Except for the feathers there being a little sparse, there was no trauma that could affect Feathered Serpent's actions.
As if it didn't feel the attack just now, it continued to stretch its body, bringing people's faces closer to Azik, and letting Azik stagger towards itself.
In a few more steps, their identical faces will touch each other, and their souls that have been separated for thousands of years will merge into one.
"Petrification", which even the clone of "Abomination" Suah couldn't bear, actually only caused this little damage to this Feathered Serpent... Angel's heart continued to sink, and his purple eyes were stained with a hint of black.
She could hardly control her Mythical Creature Form.
