Chapter 674 The plastic girl saved herself a Gundam Burning Legion! What a waste of natural resources - more updates [15]
(Added update for brother "Shoushou" [1/5]. This brother's name is two clicking hands, but this icon cannot be sent out in the background)
A "Seven Sha Trial" that exceeds the VanCleef range is applied to Fortress of Loyalty.
This is not Diakum torturing these souls, but Devos's request.
She must ensure that all Forsworn here will no longer suffer from the mental interference of Eldest Daughter. The most important thing is that Devos has completely experienced this process. She hopes that all her fellow travelers can truly find their "self".
I have to say that Devos is actually an "idealist".
Even though she doesn't know what kind of paradise she wants now, she can't bear what Gristletia the Firstborn has done to this earth after she "awakens".
This is a soul that hates evil.
It's no wonder that after the battle of Mardum, when he saw Diakum colliding with the order of life and death and resurrecting the Afflicted Oturis, he rushed out to challenge in such an anger.
Well, although the child's strength is a bit poor, at least the child's heart is good.
"Seven Sha Trial" is a top-notch spiritual attack method that directly targets the seven emotions and six desires. The effect is outstanding. In the first minute after it was released, more than a hundred Forsworn Kyrian burst into tears, or were trapped in inner demons and could not extricate themselves.
It stands to reason that they have all passed the "eternal promotion" set by Eldest Daughter. They have abandoned the flaws of the mortal body through long-term hard training, making themselves as pure as a mirror, no longer affected by emotions and able to be rational forever. This perfect state of mind should be easy to pass when facing Seven Sha Trial.
But it turns out that there is obviously a difference between "emotional castration" and "soul detachment".
Like Emperor Shaohao, who "passes five levels and kills six generals", who truly defeats his own negative emotions and allows himself to step into the realm of "Unity of Heaven and Man" is the Right Path who can fight against Inner Demon Curse.
But the "Tai Shang Wang Qing" practiced by Kyrian angels is obviously an out-and-out "evil way".
They can indeed resist the interference of negative emotions under normal circumstances, but when Sha Power released by Diakum personally is churning, the pure mind obtained by the so-called "eternal promotion" is polluted in an instant.
Vigilant told Devos before.
Eldest Daughter allows them to cut themselves off from the past, and abandoning themselves is just a cover-up. Unless it is a true soul cutting or Diakum personally performs a "Truth Surgery", otherwise the abandonment of the past is more of a forced suppression.
The past exists in the blood and bones of every life. The past shapes the present. Memory and experience are the basis of personality.
Those pasts have not been abandoned, they are hiding in the shadow of the Kyrian angel, just waiting for an opportunity to launch a ferocious counterattack. When you "war" with your past, you basically don't need to desire victory.
People can never fight against themselves! At least not most people.
For a time, the whole Fortress of Loyalty ghosts were howling like a group of demons dancing wildly. Those forcibly forgotten emotions and past invaded like a tide, making the Forsworn Kyrian people scream and almost drown in this ferocious emotional wave.
Along with their "self" came back negative emotions such as regret, despair, anger and so on. The negative emotions erupted by these purest souls at this moment even made Dick surprised to see that there were already Sha entities ready to move here.
"How can less than 10,000 people gather together to form the Sha entity?"
Vigilant looked at the helpless Devos with "horror" and complained:
"How depressed are you Kyrians usually?"
Devos has no answer.
She just looked at those compatriots who were immersed in the past and suffering pain with sad eyes, but were crying and unwilling to let go or lose themselves for the second time.
People are just cheap!
The same goes for angels, some things can only be known how precious they are if they are lost.
"She said that mortal emotions are flaws. She said that emotions will only affect Kyrian's ability to make correct judgments. She said that if the spread of self is not restrained, no matter how beautiful the paradise is, it will collapse. This is what she told us, and we do the same."
Devos closed her eyes, clasped her fingers tightly on her Crystalcasting war spear, and sighed:
"Bastion is built on sacrifice, not just the blood and lives of Kyrian, but also our self-sacrifice for what we call "the great destiny."
But destiny
Destiny was wrong from the beginning!"
This sigh was full of sadness and helplessness, which made Diakum feel the same.
He secretly decided in his heart that this Bastion mistake would never be repeated in the future High Heaven. Appropriate restraint of emotions is conducive to a better life, but if you insist on being indifferent and ruthless, you are asking for trouble.
When Qin Duanyu and Imperius really appear, uh, no, Xe'ra and Kazzak will have a duel under the gate of High Heaven. It will be funny.
The tragedy of Bastion conveyed a truth to Diakum:
The so-called "perfection" does not exist. All souls should accept the imperfection of themselves and the world calmly, and use their own actions to push themselves and the world closer to perfection.
This should be the true virtue of "the way to promotion".
Rather than like Eldest Daughter, who regards the hip-pulling order left by First Ones as a treasure, and would rather sacrifice himself and others to fulfill his responsibilities in this system.
The more determined she is in fulfilling her duties, the more pain Bastion will suffer.
But this is actually not to blame Eldest Daughter for being stubborn
The concept of power she controls is "Dutifulness". It can be said that abiding by the existing order is her underlying logic. This is how she was created by First Ones. The problem with the One is that she should not use her own worldview to force all Kyrians to behave like her.
She is a real "robot", but the others are not!
Vigilant assessed the heat below. When the Sha entity appeared, it converted Sha Power into Heart Power, allowing the minds of all Forsworn and the candidates to be integrated at this moment.
Let each other feel the true emotions in each other's hearts, so that they no longer need to hide themselves, and use common desires to reshape common morality after the negative emotions are vented.
Just like Diakum originally reshaped Light Weaver Warband's morality, he wants to use this method to create a new unity.
As a result, in the next second, under Dick's stunned gaze, a male Kyrian took off his helmet, ran out and hugged another female Kyrian, and the two kissed each other.
Judging from the passionate emotions on both sides, you can tell that this is definitely a pair of "mad men and resentful women".
"Is this, this, this, this, right?"
Dick turned his head and looked at Devos who covered his eyes with his hands and looked desperate. He said:
"If I remember correctly, don't you Kyrian have no gender?"
"No."
Devos lamented:
"After promotion is completed, gender will also be regarded as a flaw in the mortal body. All Kyrian who have completed promotion are only different in appearance. Everyone has abandoned gender differences. Eldest Daughter believes that differences will cause disputes.
But you brought our selves back, and naturally those abandoned desires were brought back with you. I know these two guys.
The two came to Bastion together, but before they were killed by demons that destroyed the world, they were lovers.
Alas, the eternal practice has made the two forget their love for each other.
That may be the most precious thing that two people have ever owned. Fortunately, the couple finally found each other again after countless years."
"Ah, this Kyrestia is really doing all kinds of bad things!"
Diakum complained:
"You can do such evil things as "beating a mandarin duck with a stick", this guy really needs to be stabbed hard. What I mean is, let's not wait, let's launch an attack on Elysian Hold now. When I think of such tragic things happening all over Bastion, my heart of justice can't stand it anymore.
I must ignite this "paradise" with my own hands, let Kyrestia fall into Mortal realm, and let her experience something she has never experienced before."
Devos nodded hard.
But she hesitated and said:
"Elysian Hold is the most heavily defended place in the entire Bastion. A large number of Kyrian Warrior are stationed there all year round. Once attacked, when the bell rings, all the saints in the entire Bastion will gather there.
The most important thing is that Elysian Hold is connected to all temples by animatronics. Space is meaningless here. You and we have to face not only Elysian Hold and Eldest Daughter, but also the entire army of Bastion."
But Dick just pointed at the Forsworns below who were in ecstasy in Seven Sha Trial.
Devos understood instantly.
If Forsworn who have abandoned their vow to pursue themselves cannot resist Seven Sha Trial, then Kyrian who live like ascetics are even less able to resist this spiritual power.
Eldest Daughter's army of angels constructed in the wrong way encountered a "natural enemy" at this moment. Diakum the Saint only needs to apply Seven Sha Trial to Elysian Hold. All saints starting from Eldest Daughter and Kyrian will not be able to exempt themselves.
"But there is still Centurion's army!"
Devos emphasized seriously:
"A long time ago, when Sea of Darkness invaded Bastion, those Void Creature used psychic offensive. Eldest Daughter realized the vulnerability of the soul when facing the void, so she created ingenious deacons and asked them to design and manufacture a large number of Centurion.
War machines that use anima as their energy source are immune to mind spells.
In fact, considering that Kyrian angels are responsible for guiding mortal souls on a daily basis, Bastion's defense is mostly carried out by Centurion.
Their number is beyond your imagination, and their combat effectiveness is far beyond ordinary. The powerful Goliath can guard the ground, and the agile Adjudicator can guard the sky. The "Eternal Colossus" in Centurion can even clear out some powerful enemies for Eldest Daughter.
The leader among them has made great achievements in battle.
Hercules of Invincible, Eternal Light·Valinor, and the firepower elite Colossus "Oliphian" are all very difficult opponents.
Our numbers are too few"
"Child, your understanding of "Inner Demon Curse" is obviously too one-sided. You have never experienced a real void invasion, so naturally you don't know how dangerous this kind of spiritual power will become in the hands of Void Lord.
I am not very talented, but I can also call myself a not-so-good Void Lord."
Diakum pointed at the ferocious Sha entities that had taken shape.
He raised his fingers and reshaped them in the entanglement of light and shadow, turning these void entities formed by negative emotions into the gloomy form of "Death Angel". At the moment when Vigilant's finger pointed at Elysian Hold, seven Sha entities rose into the air and attacked Elysian Hold as the vanguard of Forsworn.
He said to the excited Devos:
"The success or failure of this battle does not depend on how fierce our offensive is, child. These Sha entities will absorb all the enemy's negative emotions to strengthen themselves. In other words, if the Kyrian Warriors under Eldest Daughter are as pure and determined as they claim to be, then Sha will not continue to strengthen.
On the contrary, if they are just "pretending to be pure", then Sha, whose seven heads will continue to grow, may be enough to overthrow the rule of Eldest Daughter.
The hidden dangers planted in this land by her will be detonated by me today.
But I won't kill anyone!
I assure you that no Kyrian will die in today's war, but how to deal with your former companions is something you, a child who hopes to overthrow the old paradise and establish a new paradise, need to consider."
Vigilant said seriously:
"I won't stay here for too long. I have already gained the "experience" I need. I will take Eldest Daughter away without harming any plants or trees in Bastion, but I will not get involved in how you want to reshape this place in the future."
"But"
Devos is a little confused.
After taking off with Diakum and leading thousands of Forsworn to spread their black wings and fly toward Elysian Hold, she finally couldn't help but ask:
"Before leaving Maldraxxus, Great Chieftain Blackhand talked to me privately. He persuaded me to abandon the ridiculous Bastion and follow you to join High Heaven of Holy Light. He told me that High Heaven is the paradise of all Holy Light Walker and is the real Holy Land that is more worthy of being followed by Kyrian than Bastion.
I am actually ready to be recruited by you, but why?
It seems you have no intention of taking me and Forsworn away?"
"The reason lies in what Blackhand said to persuade you."
Dick said softly:
"High Heaven belongs to all Holy Light Walker, but there is not only Holy Light Walker in the star sea. If I take you all away, then where should those kind mortals go when they arrive at Shadowlands after death?
High Heaven will become a paradise for the Holy Spirits, but this does not conflict with Bastion embracing all good souls.
Not everyone is qualified to step on the path of the Force. My child, I cannot be so selfish and take away all Kyrian angels, and your eternal persistence in Bastion is for the welfare of more people.
Heaven should and must exist!
Whether it's High Heavens for Holy Light Walker, or Bastion for mortal kind people
If you do good deeds throughout your life and are not rewarded after death, wouldn't it encourage your life to fall into evil ways?"
Vigilant let out a hearty laugh.
He pointed at Elysian Hold and said to Devos who was thoughtful:
"I will only take one of you, one is enough."
Devos is not exaggerating the facts.
Although the sudden arrival of the Sha entity woven Seven Sha Trial and instantly defeated the Kyrian defenders who were sacred in appearance but hollow in their hearts, the subsequent appearance of the Centurion army did cause great trouble to Forsworn.
The golden bird-like Adjudicator took off from Elysian Hold and occupied the sky in a short time; the Goliath giant on the ground waved its anima punch, blocking the small Sha that were constantly derived from the Sha entities.
The fearsome Eternal Colossus roared and faced the seven-headed Sha Death Angel head-on.
These tall and gorgeous Eternal Colossus, with both a sense of artistry and power, are simply an excellent example of "death engineering". Diakum fell in love with them at first glance.
Unexpectedly, this Gristletia the Firstborn is not only a nerd, but also a rare lesbian!
I have secretly saved myself such a large collection of the Burning Legion figures, and each one is a high-quality one. I looked at Diakum with envy, and then I felt that my High Heaven is heaven, and Bastion is also heaven. So if Bastion has it, he must also have High Heaven!
You can't be at a disadvantage in front of your friends and businessmen.
But apart from being able to blow rainbow farts and blow ashes, none of the little angels under his command are good at engineering. Anyway, they have all made up their minds to get more wool from "friends" and don't care about getting more.
So, Diakum sneaked up behind Eternal Colossus who was beating Sha Death Angel with "Anima Cannon", and suddenly stepped forward to attack him while the other party was not paying attention.
Through the sacred connection between himself and High Heaven, a "Faith Gate" was torn open, and under the coordinated blow of Sha Death Angel, the "Eternal Hercules" was knocked into High Heaven.
Here Xe'ra was still thinking hard about how to build his own paradise, when he saw a gorgeous giant statue crashing down, destroying the "little bungalow" Xe'ra had just built.
Eternal Colossus was still roaring in confusion, but Mother of Light's anger soared.
Is it easy for me to remove ashes?
Are you just ruining the little house I worked so hard to build?
Die!
But Diakum knew very well that Eternal Colossus's sample alone was not enough. He had to "invite" a few butlers Gugu who were good at making colossi to "visit" him.
So Diakum flew around the chaotic battlefield, and finally found the "Grand Master" Mikanikos who was wielding a cool forging hammer and commanding his deacons.
This is the oldest Deacon, Gugu, and Centurion are basically derived from its genius design.
It is said that this guy is a rare butler with a bad temper, which is not a good match for Bastion, who pursues a beautiful soul.
So, after a flash of golden light, the lovely Gugus who were busy carrying the anima jars suddenly discovered that their grand master was missing!
Mikanikos Your Excellency disappeared mysteriously.
Also disappearing together was Bastion's steward artifact "Festus, the Source of All Ages". That anima warhammer was specially used to manufacture and repair Eternal Colossus.
Damn it!
These black-winged Forsworn are so bad, why don't they even let go of the cute Gugu!
