The sound of air being cut echoed throughout the Dome Stronghold; once the mimicry baseball bat was released, it would apply an " Eternity " lock-on to the target.
The baseball bat pierced through layers of clouds, heading straight for the " Eye of Dawn and Dusk ".
Sizzle...!
" Eye of Dawn and Dusk " Aegle wasn't going to be foolish enough to just stand by and watch himself get attacked; a sudden crackling of electrical currents appeared.
"Sky" Titan Egler clearly overlooked the special nature of the mimicry bat, which is completely immune to any attack... In other words, there is no such thing as being hit!
You're asking about mental attacks... Oh my god, this is just an ordinary baseball bat picked up by the " Eternity " Aeon. Does it really possess self-awareness?
"These days, fully autonomous driving is really convenient," Xing said with a smile.
Bang!
" Eternity " never misses, and the bat, imbued with immense power, strikes " Eye of Dawn and Dusk " with tremendous force.
Unfortunately, we still don't know exactly how much health " Eye of Dawn and Dusk " has. Xing retrieved his bat, and it slipped away like an unkillable cockroach.
"The mark... has disappeared again?"
"It seems it doesn't want to confront us directly. Perhaps it's out of fear... or perhaps it has a backup plan."
Sorabis slowly began, " Aegle has probably already lost his mind..."
"But instinct still drives it away from the darkness, to escape the encirclement of the Black Tide."
"Is that hero still conscious?" Xing asked.
"I have no way of knowing Senios's situation. But I can say for sure that the mark is not controlled by her consciousness. She would never abandon her dignity like a deserter, fleeing under the pursuit of the dark clouds."
It's time to leave.
Hyacine called out to Sorabis, who was turning to leave, "Please wait a moment, Your Excellency Sorabis. I... there's one more thing I'd like to do."
"... What, a girl?"
"To keep their promise to the hero Senios, her descendants spent a thousand years watching over the sky. I think those ancestors who lived for the same ideal generation after generation have the right to know the truth of the legend."
"If you don't mind us knocking on the door of the past... could you allow me a glimpse into the history of this place?"
"..." Sorabis pondered, "You are the ones who possess the power to control the Oronyx's Miracle. I have no right to stop you from revisiting that past."
" Little Mimi, Little Gray, can I ask you for a favor? I want to give an explanation to the ancestors who are waiting on the other side." Hyacine looked at Mimi and Xing with hopeful eyes.
March 7th whispered in my ear, "Sigh~ I don't know why, but it seems like everyone has already assumed that the ' Eternity ' Miracle is the ' Oronyx's Miracle '."
"Hmm... maybe Ye Yan and Oronyx have some kind of complicated relationship?" Xing wondered to herself, still unaware Mimi Mimi's background.
"Leave it to us, that's your right. But what if the rumor is a lie..."
Hyacine smiled. "Then there must be a reason why it has to be disguised as a lie... right?"
"If there's any falsehood in the legend... then there must be a reason behind it that needs to be embellished," Dan Heng said.
"The sights here, along with my previous Remembrance, give me a strange premonition... What happened to the Child of the Sky after Senios challenged the gods?"
"I need to find out the true story behind the legend so that the souls of our ancestors can finally rest in peace."
" Hyacine... what a good child. Don't worry, someone's here!" Mimi said with her hands on her hips, her tone relieved.
" The Remembrance surging here are even more intense than at the entrance... I'll just condense them here, squeeze them, squeeze them..."
In the blink of an eye, Mimi recalled her past Remembrance.
"Thank you, Little Mimi. Everyone, please... join me in witnessing history."
"... Daughter of Dusk, have you finally succumbed to madness?"
The three People of the Sun gathered here, and opinions varied:
"I knew it... a child who combines the bloodlines of two sworn enemies would eventually Destruction Sky City with his own hands."
"Do you truly intend to point your spear at our gods? Retreat! Your recklessness will invite divine punishment..."
It's not hard to see that this memory is of the People of the Sun confronting " Knight of Dawn's Thunder " Senios.
"Divine punishment?" Senios chuckled softly.
"Those innocent Children of the Earth, merely out of Curiosity to peek into the 'heavens,' were subjected to a judgment of annihilation and destruction by the high and mighty gods..."
"Look down at yourselves. A people who call themselves Children of the Scorching Sun cannot withstand the intense light, and yet they regard their scorched skin as a gift from the gods."
"You consider yourselves the chosen ones, the strong favored by Aegle, yet you dare not declare war on the true threats to this world, only daring to raise your swords against your weak compatriots."
"You are terminally ill... My father was also a believer in the blazing sun; he Church me perseverance and integrity, guiding me to walk towards the light—"
"--For where there is light, there is hope. Poor people, I see no hope in you... Even the shadows hidden in the shadows have more dignity than you!"
The People of the Sun cried out in grief and indignation, "Even so, Daughter of Dusk! Even so, you should not have destroyed our faith..."
"... It's more than just faith! Aegle shaped the sky; it is the sky itself—if it were to fall, who knows what the world would become!"
" Prophecy came from the horizon. It proclaimed a new era, an era not ruled by Titan, but ushered in by mortal heroes."
"I choose to believe! All promises break the shackles imposed on us by the old world, bringing us the harbinger of a new chapter... I have no choice but to believe!"
"If you wish to stop me from slaying a god, you'd better muster your courage and draw your longbows to their fullest extent. Let's see whether I'm pierced by a thousand arrows first... or you are burned to ashes by the flames of Sorabis!"
Senios shouted sternly, while the three People of the Sun wailed in despair:
"How are we supposed to fight you? You are the mighty Knight of Dawn's Thunder, the Valkyrie who can rival all nations..."
"I am not a god—I am merely a mortal within this cage, the only one with the courage to defy the warden."
The People of the Sun fell silent in their Remembrance. Even under the blazing sunlight, their expressions remained ashen.
"See... you are truly cowards." Senios shook her head. "The hunting grounds are calling us. Let's go, Sorabis."
Hyacine commented, "The heroine Senios, utterly disillusioned with the actions of the People of the Sun, decided to sever the source of everything... the god they worshipped."
"At that time, she was kind-hearted. Even when her words were impassioned, her heart was filled with compassion for the Son of Man."
"It's time to leave, Hyacinthia Lunabis waiting for you."
" Aegle fled to the other side of the Bulwark... Chase after him!"
