Chapter 304 Mythical Beasts Appear
When all of Maga's energy dissipated, the Maga Serpent was completely destroyed, and there was no more conflict on the field.
Yao Hui was weak and unsteady on his feet, so Yi Xuan quickly helped him up and kept him steady.
Belial Twilight floated in mid-air, watching the ashes of the Maga Serpent being blasted to smithereens by the Zestiem Ray, his heart filled with smugness as he recalled the thrill of slashing the Maga Serpent with his sword.
The demon king who destroyed the world has been completely destroyed. The battlefield is covered with lava, and there is no life for hundreds of miles around.
However, the overabundance of life and the spread of death have not yet ended.
The two energies released from the body of Maga Serpent were reunited and, under the guidance of the Heroic Monster, converged in one person's hand.
"Wow, wow, this is absolutely amazing!"
"Hahahaha, to have lived this long and witnessed the beginning and end of this story, all the suffering I've endured over the years has been worth it."
A somewhat familiar laugh came from beneath the feet of the hero monster, the aura of life and death merging into the source of the illusory laughter.
"The duel between the Demon King and the Hero, the trust and perseverance of the hero from another world, and the high-level clash of top powers are all thrilling. I really don't know how it will end until the very end."
"I'm so happy to see such diverse and unique stories, but it's a bit of a pity that Zeta isn't joining."
Both Yaohui and Yixuan noticed the suddenly appearing figure, which was eerie and magical, and the hero monster obeyed him.
Belial Twilight ignored them all. Now that the Great Serpent Maga was nothing but ashes, he refused to believe that anyone in the world could stop him.
"Give it back! You think you can just borrow it and not return it?!"
With a flash of purple light, Dessim's Slash was unleashed with a deafening roar, and Belial Twilight rushed forward to retrieve the Pure Crystal of Courage from the Hero Monster's body.
With a slap imbued with the life force of the weapon, Belial Twilight was sent flying hundreds of miles away. Without the enhancement of battle intent, Belial Twilight was merely a somewhat powerful weapon, unable to stand alone without a user.
"You guys probably don't understand the situation, Hero. When did the Heroic Crystal become yours?"
Luo Yi stood on a protruding rock and spoke to Yao Hui and Yi Xuan with a smile, but his voice was ethereal and didn't seem to come from his vocal cords, or even from a living being.
The Courage Crystal that Belial Twilight needed to cut open with Sky-Splitting Slash and throw in was easily extracted from the hero monster's body by Luo Yi with a single wave of his hand. He held it in his hand and tossed it up and down, looking at the heroes who had lost all their abilities with a smug expression.
"Luo Yi, are you Luo Yi? Are you still alive?"
“I am still alive, but I guess I’m not far from death. I am both Luo Yi and Luo Yi. I’ve come here just to take back everything that belongs to me.”
Yao Hui couldn't hear what Luo Yi was saying at all. He couldn't see the unique aura that belonged to Luo Yi in Luo Yi's current face. Instead, it was as if another soul was using that body.
"Take back what belongs to you? Who are you? If you're not Luo Yi, why are you taking over his body!"
"It's not possession, Hero. It's fusion, just like when you merged with Belial Twilight to save the world, wasn't that the same thing?"
The fleeting, innocent look in his eyes was a longing for past memories, a time when Luo Yi had experienced something wonderful and fulfilling.
But times have changed, and the old days can never be returned.
To regain peace, we must overturn everything Muban has done—no, not just Muban's work, but also our own naivety. We must end the trouble we created ourselves.
"A fusion with Luo Yi's personality? Who fused with Luo Yi? Who has the ability to control hero monsters and absorb the aura of life and death?"
“Wait a minute, Haruki, it seems there really is someone with such an ability.”
Yao Hui's repeated surprises led Yi Xuan to think of an unbelievable answer: a character rooted in the original starting point of the legend.
Creating miracles, prolonging life, resisting the invasion of evil spirits, and fighting against death.
The forgotten and overlooked legend is the legend itself, possessing fantastical magical abilities.
"A legendary mythical beast, a cosmic noble, a galactic princess..."
"Are you the magical beast within the ruins that possesses the power to rewrite cognition and create magic for our world?"
This was the only answer Yixuan could think of. Apart from her, Yixuan didn't think anyone else could easily control the aura of life and the aura of death.
She felt no pressure, no pain, as if life and death were her own.
"Oh my, you really are a born hero, Mr. Yixuan. There's definitely a reason why the life force chose you."
"I didn't expect so much time to have passed, and the nicknames given to me are so varied. But none of them suit my taste. I still prefer people to call me 'friend,' or by the name my friends gave me—"
"Stardew."
The presence of the aura of death caused a change in the realm of death. The resurrected undead were no longer frenzied; they ceased their harm to other life forms and instead devoted themselves to the exploration and mining of magical ores.
The undead and skeletons deep underground possess an extremely strong ability to sense underground energy. They have explored the existence of magical veins and modified and protected the origin of magic in the world.
The life force also shifted its mode according to Stardew's thoughts. The giant kelp monster retracted all the poisonous gas into its body, and plant creatures sprang up to absorb the giant kelp monster and the poisonous gas within it, redeploying their energy.
All sorts of plants and land monsters roam the continent, repairing the scarred surface and rebuilding the shattered mountains.
The rebuilding of peace began under the leadership of the mythical beasts, ruthless and unreasonable, with Stardew representing the will of the world.
Human dwellings were trampled and swallowed underground, leaving nothing on the surface, restoring the land to its original state.
Farmland was leveled, grass and trees took over the territory of crops, mines were squeezed out, rivers were flooded, and all man-made and animal-made buildings were swept away.
The whole world is changing. The wind and snow are blowing erratically. Water in the well is being sucked back into the underground river. The land and rocks by the port are exposed and returned to the cliff face.
Everything is reverting to its original state, becoming what Stardew once knew.
The monsters wanted to rebel, but who could sway the power of nature?
Humanity struggles to avoid destroying the achievements of its civilization, but when nature becomes angry, humanity becomes the first target of that anger.
Humanity has destroyed too much of the world for its own sake, especially with the emergence of figures like Muban, who is a top criminal who has provoked nature's fury.
Now, Muban has lost everything. He crawled out of the ruins, his body tattered and staggering, and with all his might, he came to Yaohui and begged him to have mercy and help him this once.
"Help me, Haruki, hero, please help me!"
"Save Elifa, please save her..."
Muban was covered in filth, his limbs were weak and his breath was feeble. He limped forward, and even the grass that had grown on the surrounding land seemed more vibrant than him.
When Haruki and Ichiro met Muban, they were full of doubt. They were even more surprised when they heard about Elifa. What exactly happened elsewhere while Haruki was fighting Maga Orochi?
"It's Luo Yi. Luo Yi absorbed the remains of the phantom beast."
"He kidnapped Elifa and turned her into a monster, the one that was forced to fight to its death alongside him!"
