Chapter 256 For Whom the Bell Tolls (Please Subscribe!)

The sudden pressure made everyone choke.

The figure was blurry, not to mention the appearance, even the body had a sense of illusion, as if the incarnation of fate, unable to be seen by human eyes.

He was standing in the air, just a simple sentence, giving people a feeling that cannot be disobeyed, making people inexplicably want to submit, wanting to obey his arrangements... or to obey their own destiny.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

At this moment, many people knelt down directly.

"My lord?!" The dark priest was overjoyed.

The power of the new god is indeed terrible, not something that a small priest like him can resist, but compared with the old god, it is still far behind.

Even if it is just a shadow, it is enough to kill the new god.

The dark priest regained his calmness and coldness again: "You are dead."

As if to confirm his words, a huge blood-red bell quietly emerged.

Everyone realized that the white moon had fallen to the ground at some point.

Mia and the others' faces suddenly became ugly, and Dorsalon even showed a trace of fear in his eyes, completely losing his previous bravery.

The originally fierce battle also stopped because of this. Both the captives and the jailers stopped in this heart-pounding sense of oppression.

The dominance and deterrence of the old gods can be seen.

The most terrifying thing is that Ye Maohan found that this was not the real shadow of the old god.

He immediately checked the attributes of the blurred figure, all attributes were 1000, and the name was displayed as "Illusion of the Shadow of Destiny".

The breath of just an illusion is so powerful, wouldn't the real Shadow of Destiny be fatal?

The real body is even more unimaginable.

Che Ye Nan Huan and Ye Mao Han looked at each other and knew that this time they were in big trouble.

They have been trying to free the jailers. Even if the power 39 was discovered at that time, they did not give up. They took advantage of the jailers going to the power 39 to untie the shackles on the remaining captives' feet, trying to complete the third stage of the task as quickly as possible.

But the mission was not yet completed, and the shadow of the God of Destiny appeared first...

Although it was just an illusion, no one knew whether the shadow was hiding nearby.

The blurred figure did not give them more time to think. He looked down at the people on the ground like a king, and slowly said: "Destiny is destined. If you disobey fate, you must be prepared to pay the price."

As soon as the voice fell, a great power hidden in the dark descended silently, turning into invisible shackles, imprisoning everyone in place.

Che Ye Nan Huan and Ye Mao Han and others were shocked to find that they could not move!

This is not a simple imprisonment, but also gives people an illusion that the death penalty is coming and they cannot struggle. Like a prisoner pushed to the execution ground, the ending is already determined.

Even Gu Chi felt a clear sense of bondage.

"The power of fate..." Nataya's hoarse voice trembled slightly, revealing a hint of despair.

Ding!

The blurred figure sounded the death knell.

Gu Chi detonated the BUFF on Lao Li and others without hesitation.

But this time, "faith" lost its effect.

This time, the bell did not target everyone, but its power was far greater than before.

In the eyes of everyone's fear, the five towers exploded into dust without warning. The nearby captives and the players who shouted the God of Destiny, along with these towers, were all wiped out by the bell, leaving only the dust floating in the sky, which was blown away by the wind.

[Player "Plastic Bag" died, the mission failed, the number of remaining players: 515]

[Player "Crazy Tire" died, the mission failed, the number of remaining players: 514]

[Player "Green Orange Girl" died, the mission failed, the number of remaining players: 513]

[……]

A bell killed nearly a thousand people!

Among them were some captives with extremely high divinity.

Obviously, this was no longer a question of divinity level.

Ye Maohan's eyelids jumped fiercely.

They had been fighting for so long and no one died. As soon as the God of Destiny appeared, eighteen people were killed directly.

Che Ye Nan Huan forced himself to calm down.

Only eighteen, not too many.

There is no such thing as not dying in a group fight. From the beginning, Cheye Nanhuan was prepared for the loss of points.

From another perspective, only eighteen people died in one bell that ignored faith, which was not unacceptable. This was much better than the bell of the God of Sin, with a survival rate of more than 95%.

But unfortunately, things were not as simple as he thought.

This was just the beginning.

There was more than one bell today.

"Ding!"

The second bell rang.

"Buzz."

Five more towers disappeared.

The people around them didn't even have time to scream before they turned into wisps of dust.

The number of players dropped to 482.

More prisoners died.

Mia bit her lip, her fist trembled from excessive force, her eyes were bloodshot with hatred, but she dared not speak.

Two consecutive bells cleared the chaotic battlefield to the point where a pin drop could be heard, the air was almost frozen, and there was a deathly silence.

At this moment, the high tower area seemed like a silent execution ground, and the blood-red bell was like a ghost-head knife hanging above their heads, which made everyone breathless.

The dark priest watched this scene quietly, with a touch of cruel pleasure in his eyes.

He signaled the jailers to evacuate the high tower area, leaving this place to Lord Shadow of Fate, and everyone must die.

Once people gain power, they will have more ideas.

He looked at the five cold and beautiful girls who were also imprisoned, and felt a little sorry for a moment.

Ten of the hundred towers were wiped out, and Chengcheng, who was in the vicinity of one of the towers, was sweating and swallowing his saliva.

Why did the bell ring twice...

"Ding!"

There was a third time.

There were still five towers and people.

Seeing his teammates turning into sand less than five meters in front of him, the second-hand dealer's hair stood on end, his back felt cold, and he tried his best to think of a solution.

Cheye Nanhuan and others were also sweating, trying to think of countermeasures.

Fifteen towers were destroyed by three bells, and it seemed to be random, one in the east and one in the west, with no pattern to be found.

This meant that they could become the next person chosen by "fate" at any time, and they must find a way to avoid it as soon as possible.

Gu Chi couldn't save them either. Killing two priests in seconds consumed a lot of mana. Now his spiritual power was only enough to protect Xia Leng, Xia Ling and Youyouzi, and he might not be able to protect them.

Doctor Chen Lingmao and others were too far away, separated by dozens of towers, and he couldn't even reach them.

Gu Chi was already considering moving his power 39 to kill the Shadow of Destiny.

He didn't believe that this fateful power could resist his 120,000 Dao Yun.

When this thought came to his mind, Gu Chi suddenly felt his whole body lighten, the invisible shackles slowly dissipated, and he regained his ability to move.

Gu Chi: "?"

What do you mean?

Let him kill?

Others were still anxiously thinking of ways at this time.

The captives were silent, enduring the tyranny of fate.

The first person to kneel down fearfully guessed who would die next, praying that it would not be him.

Huang Ya also closed his eyes in fear, and kept muttering: "Don't point at me, don't point at me..."

Everyone was like a lamb to be slaughtered.

Just as the Blurry Shadow was about to swing the butcher knife for the fourth time, an extremely sharp breath suddenly burst out from Gu Chi's body, causing a strong wind in the field.

The remaining spiritual power in his body surged out and gathered on the sword in his hand.

The dark priest was shocked: "How can you move?!"

He quickly stepped back to distance himself, and was really frightened by Gu Chi's sudden burst of energy.

But Gu Chi's target was not him at all.

He looked up at the figure in the sky, and it was obvious who he wanted to kill.

Old Li and others also looked over in doubt.

They could see that Gu Chi had used all his strength. There was no spiritual energy in this world, and this was equivalent to Gu Chi's last blow.

But the question was...

"Can he be killed?"

"I don't know..."

Only Youyouzi shouted: "Mr. Prophet, kill him!"

Xia Leng and Xia Ling did not speak, but just looked at Gu Chi. They believed that their men could do it.

This is also the difference between Youyouzi and them.

Youyouzi actually didn't believe it in her heart. The power displayed by the blurred figure was too strong. The captive with such a high divinity had no power to resist at all. It was really difficult to kill the other party, especially Mr. Prophet was not in full state.

Killing the god who rang the bell, this is probably also a crooked way.

But she didn't care about that. It didn't matter whether he was killed or not. What mattered was that if Mr. Prophet wanted to kill him, she would support him.

That is, she couldn't move, otherwise she would definitely join Mr. Prophet in attacking him. At worst, they would be sent together.

As soon as she said that, Youyouzi was stunned.

"Huh?"

She found that she seemed to be able to move...?

Gu Chi's sword had already been swung out.

The whole place was full of strong winds, mixed with the majestic sword energy and spiritual power, and turned into a blue arc of light, which instantly penetrated the body of the figure.

The scene was silent for a while.

"Hit?" Nataya and others were a little unbelievable.

But the imagined scene of the blurred figure exploding on the spot or being seriously injured and vomiting blood did not appear.

This sword light did not cause any damage to the illusion of fate. He was like a ghost. "Penetration" was just a simple penetration, and it didn't even affect his movements--

"Ding!"

The fourth bell rang.

"Buzz!"

Five more towers exploded, and thousands of captives returned to dust.

The captives imprisoned in these towers are basically from the same kingdom of God. Many of them are the only remaining people of God in their own country. Their death may mean the complete destruction of these kingdoms of God. Even if some people may be reborn by relying on divinity in the future, it is difficult to have the hope of restoring their country.

The glimmer in Nataya's eyes just lit up again, and she said bitterly: "I said it before, the old gods cannot be defeated."

This is not the real old god.

"That may not be the case."

Gu Chi used all his strength to hit the air with a sword, but he didn't care at all.

He knew what this mission was about.

This scene is so similar to the Weird Order City.

Tens of thousands of people knelt on the ground and dared not make a sound. Those who did not kneel also lowered their heads and dared not look directly at the God of Destiny.

Therefore, his cultivation in the first calamity realm could not hurt the God of Destiny at all.

They made a mistake.

"Faith" is not useful for every god's bell.

Most of the old gods require players to obey their rules, but the God of Destiny is an exception.

He himself said that he does not believe in fate.

What players have to do is not to obey or dodge, but to resist.

Their collective belief in the God of Fate is equivalent to putting down defenses from the beginning, which is not as good as doing nothing.

The residual belief left after hypnosis has caused their subconscious to temporarily lose the option of resisting the God of Fate, coupled with the ruthless point-killing mechanism, causing them to completely fall into a thinking error.

Gu Chi asked, while guarding against the illusion of fate, "Have you never thought of resisting fate?"

He used the word spirit technique to raise his voice to the maximum, and his deep and powerful voice spread throughout the venue.

Che Ye Nan Huan and others keenly caught the key words in the words.

"Do you want to resist?"

"Fuck, really resist!"

The sexy uncle looked at the illusion of fate with murderous eyes, and in just a second, his body immediately regained freedom.

"Is there something wrong with this book?" Ye Mao Han cursed.

One moment you have to believe, and the next moment you have to resist, all of which are set by Xiaopoyou.

Thinking of the feeling of powerlessness in the face of the destined fate when he was first imprisoned, Lao Li simply shouted: "Go to hell, fate is up to me, not God!"

"Wow!"

His restraints were also untied.

There was even a sound effect of shattering.

The rest of the players followed suit, breaking free from the shackles of fate one after another.

The players themselves do not believe in any gods, and they do not have any so-called fear of the old gods. They are afraid only because they feel too involved and do not want to die.

For players, disobeying gods is just a matter of thought.

But it is not so easy for Nataya and others.

"Resist...what can we resist?" Nataya's eyes were gray.

The shadow of the old gods has long been planted in their hearts, otherwise they would not give up resistance when they saw the shadow of the God of Destiny.

It's not that they didn't resist.

Among all the captives here, which kingdom of God has not fought a war with the old gods?

If they really didn't resist, they could surrender and submit to the old gods, and they would not appear here.

This place would not become a place of gods.

The God of Destiny once controlled Nataya and Gu Chi to talk, and only one sentence was what Nataya wanted to say. She repeated in a lonely voice: "Losing divinity and turning into dust is our destined fate."

They also fought against fate, but they couldn't win.

"No, you have never fought against fate."

Gu Chi looked at everyone and said, "Tell me, what are you thinking about now?"

"Who will he kill next?"

"When will he be satisfied with killing and let you go?"

Gu Chi's eyes passed through the crowd and fell on Mia: "Thinking that you may be able to pretend to surrender and escape, even if you are locked up in the tower again, as long as you are alive, there is still hope?"

Mia clenched her fists and said nothing.

Gu Chi looked at Dorsalon again: "Are you the same?"

Dorsalon's bony arm trembled slightly: "What else can I do?"

They have never lacked courage, but in front of the old gods, no matter how strong their courage is, it is not worth mentioning, and it will only make them die faster.

Gu Chi sighed: "Don't you realize that your choice now is very similar to the past?"

Nataya laughed at herself: "When did we have a choice?"

Gu Chi said: "You all had allies before, and you knew that the kingdom of God that was friendly with you was invaded by the old gods, but you did not help, but chose to protect yourself."

"You don't want to get yourself involved, and you are lucky, thinking that as long as you hide, you can protect yourself."

"But what's the result? You were still found by the old gods."

"You are forced to go to war with the old gods. Such a war is the only choice after you are desperate. It is not called courage, nor is it called fighting against fate. It is just the consequence of your initial choice, that's all."

"Didn't you make such a choice because you were afraid of the old gods?"

"What you think of as courage and war is essentially just a continuation of surrendering to the old gods."

"Including now, your choice is the same."

"No matter who the bell kills, as long as it doesn't kill you."

Nataya opened her mouth and wanted to say something but didn't say it.

She found that she couldn't refute Gu Chi's words.

Mia and Dorsalon were also silent.

Gu Chi continued: "They invaded other kingdoms of God, and you turned a blind eye because it had nothing to do with you. They invaded your allies, and you turned a deaf ear because the allies were not you. And when they invaded you, others had the same idea, so each of you was destined to be alone."

"Why not unite from the beginning to resist this so-called fate?"

"I know that things in the past cannot be changed, but now the death knell of fate is hanging over your head again, will you continue to succumb?"

"Wait until it rings again and again, killing your allies and then killing yourself?"

"Even if you are lucky enough to survive this time, what will happen next time? As long as you are still here, it will be your turn one day."

"So, don't ask who the death knell is tolling for."

Gu Chi stared at the three people, and his eyes swept over all the captives who bowed their heads and knelt, and said: "It has always been tolling for you."

"Ding!"

At this time, the fifth bell rang.

Five more towers collapsed into sand.

One of them exploded not far in front of Mia, and he watched Dorsalon disappear into ashes with a look of unwillingness.

Yes, one day it will be his turn.

From the beginning to the end, they were forced to take every step by the old gods, so how could they resist?

The courage that was forced out lost its meaning from the moment it was born.

The result now is their own choice. If they want to change all this, they must choose again.

At least, they can no longer give in and be alone.

Dorsalon figured it out, but he had no chance.

Nataya murmured absentmindedly: "So... we have never resisted?"

Mia's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked up suddenly: "Then let's really resist once!"

No matter how bad the result is, it's just death, isn't it?

The next second, the shackles forged by the power of fate broke around him layer by layer.

Mia looked directly at the vague figure in the sky, as if he had turned back into the general he used to be. He shouted: "All the people of the Demigod Kingdom listen to my orders!"

"Today, fight to the death and never retreat!!"

He had no right to order the gods and people in other towers, and the other gods and people no longer needed anyone's orders at this moment.

"Fight to the death and never retreat!" The captives of the Demigod Kingdom broke free from the shackles.

Nataya's eyes were tearful, and she shouted hoarsely: "Fight to the death and never retreat!"

There were only a few of them left, but they no longer ran away.

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!!"

One after another, the captives stood up and straightened their backs. Their faces were hideous due to blood, and their eyes full of hatred were determined and ready to die.

From this moment on, they were no longer captives, but warriors, defending the last inch of land of the Kingdom of God in their hearts with their lives, and never bowing to the old gods again.

Today, fight to the death!

"Boom!"

A surge of fighting spirit rose to the sky, and the illusion of fate that was about to ring the sixth death knell was suddenly hit hard and shattered like a mirror.

The blood-red giant bell also dissipated.

The blocked sunlight passed through the clouds and illuminated the remaining 75 towers.

[The third stage goal "Liberate the Tower Prison" has been completed]

[The fourth stage goal is open: occupy the main city of the Kingdom of God]
