Chapter 219: The Unsealed Fire Giant Surtur
The Road to Nowhere.
This is a road that does not exist in theory, but actually exists. As long as it is successfully built, you can go anywhere.
The Road to Nowhere, which leads to the lowest level of the underground, was specially arranged two hundred years ago, so that the believers of the Dusk could still contact the fire giant Surtur if the gods blocked it one day.
Passing through the Road to Nowhere, the heat wave instantly hits you, and what comes into view is a vast hole. A giant that seems to be made of flames and lava is hung in the air by iron chains, and the light and heat emitted illuminate the hole.
Fire giant Surtur.
The ash lord who is said to burn the world can provide endless light and heat for the underground world just by existing.
If he is released one day, the whole world will be pushed to the brink of destruction, and everything will be burned to ashes.
Ximu stood on the edge of the Road to Nowhere, and the fire giant Surtur seemed to have a feeling in his heart, slowly opened his eyes that contained the will to burn everything, and met Akhtar's eyes, and the sights of both sides overlapped into a line.
"Lord Ashes, have you really decided?" The blindfolded nun stretched out her slender hand and grabbed Akhtar's wrist. Her eyes hidden under the silk revealed worry. "There is still plenty of time. You don't have to be so urgent."
When the time came, it was she, the nun who was going to guide Akhtar to the path of the Lord of Ashes, who began to waver.
It was not that she was afraid of death, nor that she cared about this world very much. She had long accepted that this world would inevitably burn to ashes.
But Akhtar was different. He challenged the fire giant Surtur with the idea of saving the world, and the end he faced was bound to be tragic.
Ximu did not explain, took out the sword of light, and then chopped at the fire giant Surtur. The torrent of light instantly chopped the iron chain that bound the fire giant Surtur, resonating with the fire giant Surtur, causing the binding iron chain to... break.
"Buzz!" The hole vibrated, and the wall was continuously dissolved into magma by the overflowing high temperature, pouring out along the tunnels, and then hitting the seal set by the God of Sealing, and flowing back to the depths of the hole in the opposite direction.
"What is this?" The figure of the God of Sealing appeared out of thin air. It was a man with lines on his face, floating in magic circles around him, isolating himself from any influence from the outside world, and keeping himself under the protection of the seal.
He looked around and saw the iron chain that bound the fire giant Surtur constantly breaking, and then suddenly turned his vision and looked at Akhtar standing in the air and scolded.
"Akhtar, what are you doing!"
"You should focus on yourself first." The bound fire giant Surtur suddenly moved, activated the power from Ragnarok, reversed the order of cause and effect, and set it to catch the God of Sealing first.
Then he stretched out his hand, which was as big as a mountain, and directly grasped the God of Seals in his palm, as if the five fingers of a mountain were tightly grasping, and directly imprisoned the God of Seals.
And at this moment, the chains that bound him were all broken at this moment, and the body of the fire giant Surtur began to fall, landing in the magma below the hole below.
Then.
"Boom!" The light and heat engulfed everything, and in an instant, all the seals were burned out, and nothing could stop the fire giant Surtur from being free.
The blindfolded nun saw this, and she also clenched her hands and prayed, unfolding the golden light barrier, trying to pull the fire giant Surtur and Akhtar into the barrier for a duel between the Lord of Ashes.
The diffusion barrier expanded rapidly, but when it approached the fire giant Surtur, it suddenly stagnated.
The fire giant Surtur turned his head to look at the blindfolded nun unfolding the barrier, then grabbed the magma below with his bare hands, pulled out a big sword burning with hot flames, and swung it upwards, splitting the strata with the flames of hot ash.
Then evacuated to the world above.
"Why did the barrier I unfold fail?" The blindfolded nun's voice revealed doubts, but she soon understood the reason.
The God of Seal, who was caught by the fire giant Surtur, was not dead, and was still held in the palm of the hand of the fire giant Surtur. If she successfully unfolded the barrier, the God of Seal with omnipotent power would be able to solve the weakened fire giant Surtur with overwhelming strength, so the barrier she unfolded could not include the fire giant.
"The fire giant Surtur did it on purpose." Ximu seemed to guess why the fire giant Surtur was immune to the envelopment of the barrier without the reminder of Ragnarok, and it was not because the God of Seal had a strong vitality.
Instead, the fire giant Surtur had a strategy to deal with it. In order to bypass the barrier restrictions set by the blindfolded nun, he captured the seal god before the seal was completely lifted, thus ensuring that the blindfolded nun's barrier could not affect him.
"Please don't worry." The blindfolded nun comforted softly, "I will find a way to communicate with Ragnarok to solve it."
"It's not your fault." Ximu shook his head calmly. Of course, he would not blame the blindfolded nun. Such a powerful boss character would not be easily weakened to the same level as the player. Otherwise, how to show the oppression of the top boss? It must first create a record that the players feel amazed, and then weaken it to fight against the players.
Even if the God of Seal didn't come to him foolishly, the Fire Giant Surtur, who had prepared in advance, had already split himself and created a split that could kill him as long as he was weakened, ensuring that the barrier would not take effect successfully.
However, this does not mean that the Fire Giant Surtur cannot be defeated. As long as the blindfolded nun communicates with the Ragnarok, the Fire Giant Surtur will voluntarily fight him to the death.
Otherwise, the Fire Giant Surtur's thinking logic is to burn the world by all means. In order to achieve this goal, it is worth it even if he avoids a fair fight with Akhtar.
As for other things, I don't care.
"Please wait for me for a day... no, half a day." The blindfolded nun clasped her hands together and said to Akhtar, "I will definitely create an environment for you to kill the Fire Giant Surtur."
"Yeah." Ximu responded softly, closed his eyes slightly, communicated with the mare, and asked him to rush to his side immediately.
At the same time.
Sky City.
"What a pity. I wanted to talk to you more about Akhtar." Aslaqi sighed with regret as she looked at the girl with milky white hair who stood up and was about to leave. Then she looked out the window.
Then she saw a shocking scene. A huge pillar of fire suddenly burst out at the end of her vision. The whole world became very bright in an instant. The sky was dyed with an almost ominous yellow, which made people feel strongly uneasy.
And this was because she was far away. She was closer to the area where the flame pillar suddenly emerged. The temperature soared to a level that people could not survive. Pedestrians walking on the street suddenly caught fire and screamed and turned into ashes.
Houses, rivers, and animals were all evaporated under the scorching heat, as if they had entered the Ragnarok described by the bard.
"Is this the Ragnarok?" The little mare widened her beautiful eyes, then smashed the window directly and disappeared from the room in the blink of an eye.
Aslaqi frowned slightly when she saw this, and took a sip of the teacup on the table. Because she had the power of fire, she could roughly perceive the power of the pillar of fire emerging from the horizon, which had already surpassed her previous understanding of power.
"Is the fire giant Surtur unsealed?" She calmly analyzed the current situation, and then saw a figure that seemed to be made of flames and lava appear in the sky.
The legendary fire giant Surtur really descended into the world.
...
...
The flames flickered.
Surtur looked indifferently at the goddess of life who was as small as an ant, and then looked at the witch of death who appeared out of thin air.
These two women were waiting for him in advance.
It doesn't matter.
No matter what the enemy is, it's all a target to be burned out, even if it's the omniscient god in front of him.
Half a day.
There is only half a day left. If he cannot burn the world within half a day, the rules of Ragnarok will change, forcing him and Akhtar to fight for the position of the only Lord of Ashes.
But if he burns the world within half a day, the rules of Ragnarok will not take effect, and Akhtar can be crushed to death at that time.
And if he cannot burn the world within half a day
Thinking of this.
The fire giant Surtur waved the temporarily condensed lava sword in his hand, and the raging ash flames flooded everything in sight. The terrifying high temperature that erupted was like the sun falling from the sky to the earth, burning everything on the earth.
"Bang!" The raging flames were suddenly pierced, and the chest of the fire giant Surtur was also pierced.
The gift of death.
The consciousness of the fire giant Surtur briefly stagnated. He was originally a god, until one day he was inspired by Ragnarok and became the initiator of Ragnarok, but that did not mean that his identity as a god had changed. The powerful immortality from the gods still remained, and there was no way to kill him.
But now this immortality has disappeared.
The Witch of Death put down her slender hands, and her sapphire-like eyes had no emotion. She was not happy that she had seriously injured the fire giant Surtur, but on the contrary, her mood became a little bad.
The consciousness of the fire giant Surtur briefly stagnated and fell back slightly, and then suddenly stood up, and the condensed lava sword in his hand suddenly chopped down.
Death... has no meaning for him.
Unless someone can seize his identity as the Lord of Ashes, the support from Ragnarok will not disappear, which means that he can't be killed. He can only stop his consciousness for a short time, and then take the opportunity to seal him up.
But there is no way to seal him who has the flame that burns all ashes, unless the omniscient god comes to seal him personally.
"The flame brings coldness." The girl's pleasant voice suddenly came, and then a girl with a beret and long light red hair appeared.
She put her fingers in front of her mouth and lied to the fire giant Surtur.
However, this contrary to common sense was successfully fulfilled. The red flame suddenly turned into cold white, directly freezing the fire giant Surtur.
And also took advantage of this opportunity.
"Unfold, the scenery from the beginning of creation." The color witch in the distance waved her brush and created a battlefield for everyone that was different from the present world.
The scenery of the world suddenly changed.
The lightless abyss sea appeared, and then a ray of light tore through the darkness, and the body of the frozen fire giant Surtur suddenly moved.
The lies bound to him were invalid.
"My power is almost exhausted." The Goddess of Lies took a few steps back. She used up most of her power to make her lie a success. The target of her lie was the Flame of Ashes. It would be impossible to succeed without investing most of her power.
"That's enough." The Goddess of Life spoke gently, but her eyes did not leave the Flame Giant Surtur.
She confirmed the true and false of the Flame Giant Surtur through the only two encounters before. Although the Flame Giant possessed very powerful power, it was not really at the omnipotent level.
Otherwise, the Goddess of Lies's previous lies would not have worked, because the omnipotent strongman had all-round countermeasures against his own abilities, and it was impossible to leave obvious loopholes.
But the Flame Giant Surtur left this obvious loophole, although it has been filled now.
But that also shows that Surtur did not completely reach the level of generalizing.
The so-called omnipotent level of power was more like encountering danger, and then received corresponding support through Ragnarok.
"..." The goddess of life walked away and disappeared on the spot. She gently patted the cheek of the fire giant Surtur with her hand, launched the interference from the power of "life", and modified the life form of the fire giant Surtur.
The life that had no end was modified into a life that could only live for one second. The fire giant Surtur quickly aged and the flames on his body quickly disappeared.
Then the support from Ragnarok came.
The breath of the fire giant Surtur quickly recovered, and he also learned how to defend against life interference and keep his life form fixed.
This is the power from Ragnarok.
Coming from the end of all things, it naturally means that Ragnarok contains everything, which can also provide all solutions for the fire giant Surtur.
It cannot be killed, and any means can be dealt with by Ragnarok, plus the power support provided as Ragnarok approaches.
This is an almost unsolvable existence.
However, before the fire giant Surtur adapts to all means, it is enough to delay the fire giant Surtur.
However, no one knows what the fire giant Surtur is thinking. He suddenly threw the lava sword in his hand into the abyss, directly igniting the abyss.
The flames of ash filled every corner.
"Boom!" The painting on the abyss was burned and a hole was opened. The fire giant Surtur escaped through the burned hole.
Came to the junction of life and death.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time." The goddess of death stood not far away, looking at the descending fire giant Surtur and said, "Here we can let go and fight."
