Chapter 125 White Rainbow Penetrates the Sun
Chapter 125 White Rainbow Penetrates the Sun
Following the old man Ford Bray into the house, Ash discovered that there was a different world inside, the space was about three times larger than it looked from the outside.
"What did you find?" Ford asked.
"I didn't find anything, but I instinctively felt that the locust plague here was a little unusual." Ash shrugged.
"Just instinct?" Ford said doubtfully, and sighed. "You strong men's instincts are really cheating. Just because I think so, it has to be this way. What's more annoying is that nine out of ten times you will guess right."
"That's because our subconscious mind has already figured it out for us." Ash pointed to his head. "What you think is a guess is actually the conclusion we automatically came to after integrating all the information."
"Deep consciousness?" Ford asked in a long tone, "Don't you think that your deep consciousness will deceive your surface consciousness?"
"They are the same person, how can they be deceiving? If anything, it's just misleading." Ash glanced around, "You live a simple life. I thought that even if you don't wear gold and silver, you should at least be low-key, luxurious and have connotation. I didn't expect that you were just wearing stones."
"Only stones can remain ungnawed. Only if I am like a stone in a toilet, smelly and hard, can I sit securely in this seat." Ford said with a wry smile.
Yaxiu sneered: "But what's the use? First, you can't enjoy yourself, and second, you can't do practical work. You can't be a corrupt official, and you don't want to be a good official. It's just plain water. What you do as a prime minister is really meaningless."
"Who said I'm not doing it!" The old man clenched his hands suddenly. "I want to do something, but do you understand how it feels when every time you give an order, the people below don't take it seriously?"
"Gold-digging, robbing, misinterpretation, every one of my decrees was not implemented, but brought greater disasters to the people, so I gave up and lived a peaceful life as a decoration and a puppet."
"Your situation is a typical case of a person who is neither virtuous nor talented enough for his position." Yaxiu showed no sympathy at all. "If you were virtuous, you wouldn't be so alone because they know you can do good things. If you were talented, your subordinates would at least be willing to work for you because they can do good things."
"My virtue and talent are not worthy of the position?" Ford's eyes widened, revealing an angry look, "You say that I am not worthy of the position of a young man who has held a high position and is admired by thousands of people for my good deeds?!"
"The name of goodness, tsk, you really know how to flatter yourself, the name of weakness." Ash said with a mocking look, "Just in the matter of Sidro, you made the stupidest decision."
"If you had killed him at that time, others would at least know that you were ruthless and resolute; if you disobeyed the king's order and spared the Sidro family, others would at least know that you were kind and righteous."
"But you, hypocritically letting him go, thought you could get a good reputation, but you didn't know that people behind you thought you were weak and hesitant, and that you were the easiest to bully."
"The most ridiculous thing is that you actually let him go and let him live until I kill him. You can't be a villain, a good person, or a hypocrite. You are really a clown for people's entertainment."
Ash's words were like sharp knives piercing Ford's heart, forcing him to step back until he hit the wall.
“Haha!” Ford let out a low laugh, which gradually turned into, “Hahahaha, so that’s how it is, so that’s how it is, I really don’t look like anything, nothing at all!”
After laughing until he ran out of breath, Ford bowed to Ya Xiuxing and said, "Thank you for clearing my doubts today, kid. I have been confused for most of my life. Now I know how pathetic and ridiculous I am."
Ash crossed his arms over his chest and said, "It's fine if you know. Tell me who is behind the locust plague. I thought it was you, but I looked around and didn't see anything related."
"Who else could have ordered me to do such a dirty thing?" Ford said weakly.
Ash understood and nodded, "Why did he do that?"
"He's dying." Ford only said a few words, but it made Ash understand why.
After all, being clearly aware that you are dying little by little is one of the greatest tortures in the world.
Under this torture, both the king and the common people were equally crazy, but when the king went crazy, he would harm not just one or two people, but at least the people of an entire country.
Ash looked at the old man and asked, "Any last words?"
The aura of good and evil only represents a person's character, but not his behavior. As an accomplice of this human disaster, Ford obviously deserves to die.
Ford opened his mouth, but finally gave up resisting: "Can you let me leave in a dignified manner, at least like a prime minister?"
"Then you should get ready and go to the palace tomorrow morning," said Ash.
"What are you doing at court?" Ford asked in confusion.
Ash whispered, "Kill the king."
As they walked out of the mansion, the bunny girl appeared next to Ash: "Aren't you afraid that he will run away, or tell on us?"
"It doesn't matter. Those who are destined to die will die. I know this." Ash shrugged.
The bunny girl didn't say much: "Do you want me to take action tomorrow? I'm afraid that king will be a little difficult for you."
"No need." Ash shook his head, "That is my exclusive prey."
"Okay." Ye Lin nodded, and guessed that this might be a way for Ash to obtain resources using his unique skills.
In the dream, only Ye Lin and Maria accompanied Ash today. After all, Ye Lin was a demigod after all, and his physical fitness was far superior to that of Ash who was still growing.
This made it extremely difficult for Ash to pull it up, because with Ye Lin's physical fitness, even if she was given a steel pipe, she could twist it into a pretzel.
Even though Ash's body was harder than steel at this moment, he still felt a little pain. Fortunately, he also discovered Ye Lin's weakness, the pair of rabbit ears and little tail.
Only then did he know that Ye Lin's race was a monster, the Gem Race, the Moonlit Star Rabbit, but she preferred to move in human form, so he used the Eternal Transformation Technique to fix her in the form of a Homo sapiens. The rabbit ears and tail were a souvenir, so he kept them on her body forever.
Playing with the small pompom, Ash looked at the pair of sword-like slender yet graceful legs on his shoulders, thinking that these legs would look even better in stockings or latex.
The Huailong tree nearby silently absorbed the scent of a man and two women, and the pink spots on its leaves became more intense.
The next day, in Itamar, at the royal palace, a daily council meeting was held.
But everyone knows that this is just a formality and the real people in charge are not here.
The current King Kojir III has shown his ability as a powerful ruler since his youth and has firmly grasped the power of the country in his hands.
He established a staff group independent of the civil service group and concentrated power in his own name. Even important officials such as the prime minister were just tools to implement his policies in his eyes.
Looking at the increasingly younger Kojir III, many people lamented when they would truly take power.
They thought they could finally outlast Coggiir III, and that would be the time for them to take action, because after all, none of this king's descendants had become successful.
Everyone knew that last year's locust plague was probably related to this king. After all, he started to get younger at that time.
But no one dared to say anything. This king still firmly controlled everything in the country until his old age. What could they do if they said it? Except for "committing suicide" at home, they would get nothing.
As usual, he finished talking about what had been agreed upon long ago, and then looked at Cogir III, who looked like an ordinary middle-aged man, and said:
"Which of you ministers has any objection?"
This sentence made the civil servants a little restless. They had long been accustomed to all this, but today was a little different because Cogier III was going to send troops against the neighboring Principality of Blazing Flame.
This is a good opportunity to gain merit.
The foreign Grand Duke of the neighboring Principality of Blazing Flame has died, and their country is currently in turmoil with wars and struggles for the position of Grand Duke.
Speaking of the Grand Duke with a foreign surname, he is also a legend. No one knows how he married the princess of the previous king, and finally he ascended the throne of the Grand Duke as a relative of the previous king.
What's even more bizarre is that because the great nobles who rebelled were easily dealt with by him, their in-laws, their wives, daughters, and daughters-in-law were all taken into his harem.
There are even rumors that the previous king's queen had an affair with him.
This duke from another family was called the stud because he had been spreading his bloodline all over the country.
As soon as he died, at least thousands of people claiming to be his children appeared in various parts of the Blazing Principality, and started fighting for supremacy in his name.
When Ash learned this, he was quite surprised. Although he knew that the man's reputation must be extremely strong, he didn't expect it to be to this extent.
The animation is a bit more conservative.
Yes, that foreign-born grand duke is the protagonist of another anime in the same worldview of Evil Pregnancy Manor - Dark Land, Ore.
However, the plot of this animation had already happened before Ash was born. With the ability of control and hypnosis given by an evil god, Orei successively controlled the Dawn Battle Sister Iris, the Dark Elf Fiora, and the Flame Princess Stelula.
However, he did not expect the subsequent plot. According to what was revealed at the end of the film, Ole should gradually become the master of the Manger Arena.
But no one expected that he would actually marry the Fiery Princess Stelula as his wife, and use this as a springboard to become the king of a country and spread his kin all over the world.
Ash could only attribute this surprise to errors in information transmission. After all, they were two different worlds, so it was normal for there to be distortions in the middle.
Anyway, now we have found the place where the incident happened.
Ash stood behind Ford and looked at Coghill III, but before officially participating in the event, he completed an achievement first.
Ash glanced at Ford who was still standing still and gave him a light push, signaling him that it was time to take action.
Ford didn't move, and Ash wasn't too surprised. It's hard to change a person's nature. It's too difficult to change a person's character just by talking nonsense.
Given Ford's indecisive nature, I'm afraid that once his passion subsides, he will turn back into that weak and incompetent old man.
Fortunately, Ash didn't expect too much from him. If he didn't want to leave in a dignified manner, then let him leave in an undignified manner and waste his kindness in vain.
Thinking of this, Ash walked straight past Ford and towards Coghill III.
Ash's unusual behavior immediately attracted everyone's attention, and then most people looked at Ford. They could see clearly that this person was brought in by the prime minister.
Ford was being stared at by many people, and finally couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, be careful!"
boom!
A dark golden flame ignited from Ford's body. No matter what means of escape he had prepared, they were all reduced to ashes under the flame that exuded the aura of destruction and holiness.
"You're just a ridiculous clown." Ash stomped his feet slowly and said slowly, "You promised me that you would expose your ugliness today, but you chickened out at the last minute."
Coghill III stood up and said, "That was also the clown I trained. Who allowed you to kill him?"
"Civilians died in your hands." Ash walked step by step, his aura rising endlessly, "How does it taste to eat human flesh and drink human blood, you locust king?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Coggil III also exuded a powerful aura to fight against Ash. The two auras collided with each other, and even Coggil's guards could not intervene.
"It doesn't matter whether you tell me or not. I don't care whether the truth can be revealed." Ash stood up and looked at Coggil III opposite him. "Anyway, I came here for one thing today, to beat you to death!"
The one and only weapon came out of the body and was held in Ash's hand, and then he attacked fiercely.
【Seven Steps Away】
In an instant, Ash held the One and chopped it hard at Kojir III, like a huge mountain falling down.
Boom!
Like the ringing of a huge bell, the resounding sound spread throughout the palace, immediately alarming everyone in the palace.
Looking at Cogir III standing opposite him with a knife in hand, Ash nodded slightly: "He's quite capable."
"Hmph!" Coggil III snorted coldly, and with a strong push of the long sword in his hand, he blocked Ash's sword.
However, before Coggil III could fight back, a black cannon muzzle suddenly appeared on Ash's shoulder, flashing a dark golden light.
boom!
Coggiel III flew out and fell on the throne.
Behind Ash, a purely mechanical sphere slowly floated into the air.
This is the second body constructed with the help of the [Body of All Things], which integrates the knowledge of Ash's previous life and this life. Ash named this form the Battle Star.
As Ash swung his sword, thousands of golden raindrops accompanied by almost endless rain of bullets rushed towards Coggil III like a torrent.
Ten seconds later, the second body of the Battle Star temporarily stopped functioning due to the depletion of energy. Even if Ash needed time to recover his energy, it would naturally fall into a short-term state of exhaustion if the consumption rate exceeded the recovery rate.
Ash looked at the passage he had blasted out in front of him and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
The attack that could have instantly wiped out a challenge level 650 warrior did not actually leave much damage to Cogir III.
But it's normal when you think about it. After all, he is the king of a medium-sized country, but his challenge level is not even 700 or 800, which is too low.
The ministers on the side were also looking at the passage nervously. Although they were aware of the strength of Coggil III, the momentum of Ash's move just now was too huge, which made them feel nervous.
Although they had many complaints against Kojir III and hoped that he would die soon, they did not want Kojir III to die in such a scene, especially when they were about to launch an attack on the Principality of Blazing Flame.
After all, the three current princes are all fools, and no matter who succeeds to the throne, this military campaign will fail.
Seeing Cogiel III walking out of the ruins with a gloomy face wearing bright silver armor, the ministers all breathed a sigh of relief. That's great, it seems that as his appearance becomes younger, Cogiel III's fighting power has returned to its peak, and may even become higher.
The ministers looked at Ash, not knowing what this was. However, seeing that the secret techniques just now did not cause any harm to Coggil III, it was probably a matter of time before he was killed by Coggil III.
Then, in their astonished eyes, Ash swung his sword again.
The energy torrent reappeared, rushing towards Coggil III.
Ten seconds later, the energy torrent stopped again, and Cogir III was still standing there intact, but his expression became a little solemn.
The ministers were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then they immediately breathed a sigh of relief again because Ash swung his sword again.
This time it changed its form and became a pure beam of energy.
hum!
The second body, the War Star, unfolded most of its body, and its body was buzzing as it emitted energy beams.
The buzzing sound was naturally heard by Ash who was standing nearby.
'The structure is still a little unstable and needs some fine-tuning.'
The thought passed, and Ash looked at the current Coggeel III. His armor was a little red at this moment, and it seemed that carrying the energy beam just now was also a great burden for him.
Ash was about to swing his sword again, but suddenly stopped, because the magic in this area seemed to have been drained away by his second body, and relying solely on the natural energy such as sunlight and wind within his control was still a bit slow.
The ministers on the side breathed a sigh of relief. The assassin Ash finally had no more energy to use.
However, they don't know one thing, that is, except for the shared soul, everything else between the second body and the original body is independent of each other, such as the blue bar.
Just because the second body is useless doesn’t mean Ash is useless.
With a backhand thrust, Du Yi inserted his sword into the second body, the War Star. In the astonished eyes of everyone, the War Star attached itself to Du Yi and quickly transformed into a six-meter-long, cone-like slender sword.
Ash pointed the greatsword at Coggeel III and infused his fighting spirit into it. The structure of the second body imitated the best magical metal, and it had extremely high conduction capabilities whether it was mana, fighting spirit, magic power, or holy energy.
The lines on the cone rotate rapidly, forming a storm with it as its center.
Facing this sword, Coggiel III rushed over with his sword raised, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Ash. Did he really think he would give him time to unleash his fatal blow?
Looking at Coggil III approaching, Ash raised a sarcastic smile, feeling fooled.
Ash's move is divided into two parts. The first part is that the main body and the second body accumulate power separately, and the second part is to complete the fusion activation.
You can quit at any time during the first part, and quitting will not invalidate the power stored in the main body or the second body, so Ash does not have to worry about being unable to fight back while storing power.
Cogir III's heart skipped a beat and he turned to the side without thinking, but Ash's only weapon had instantly broken away from the strangely shaped sword and was slashed down fiercely.
【Five Mountains Town】
boom!
Coggil III was blasted on his throne, his body almost torn in half, but strangely, no one saw his internal organs.
The One and the Second Body reunited and continued to resonate.
Ash watched as Cogir III stood up with his body drooping. A locust with an old man's face and a head as big as a human poked its head out from his body, looking at Ash with red eyes full of hatred.
Because of this sword, his reincarnation ritual was completely destroyed, and his hope of prolonging his life was gone.
The ministers felt a chill run down their spines as they watched this scene. Although they knew that the locust plague was related to Kogier III, they were still frightened when they actually saw it, especially since the face of the locust resembled that of the elderly Kogier III.
"I'm going to eat you. I'm definitely going to eat you!" The locusts and Coggil III's mouth were moving at the same time, which sounded extremely weird.
Ash grinned, revealing his white teeth: "Idiot!"
"Ahhh!"
Cogir III suddenly let out an angry roar, and the locusts decomposed and quickly merged with the human body, turning into a monster resembling an insect man.
Unfortunately, he was a little slow, and Ash had already accumulated his strength.
Ka!
The second body and the One were completely locked in a stalemate, and Ash swung his sword, using the move that came to him in a flash of inspiration:
"The sword that opens up the world!"
The wind blew across the earth, and then a neat black line connected the sky to the earth.
Some strong men took a closer look at the black line. It was not a black line at all, but a space crack that absorbed everything after the space was shattered. Even light could not escape, so it looked black.
However, in the blink of an eye, these cracks were quickly healed and disappeared in just two or three seconds. The world's ability to heal such small wounds is still very strong.
"Why do you want to kill me?" Cogir III, who looked like an insect man, said in a defensive posture.
"Because I want to kill a king. It doesn't matter which king it is, as long as he deserves to die." Ash put away his sword, "You are lucky to be chosen by me."
"Lucky, I think it's more unlucky." After saying this, Cogir III split into two halves, and the wound was as smooth as a mirror.
Ash took a drop of his flesh and blood and used [Blood Relationship Pursuit], so he was offended, so he must be killed.
Moreover, the achievement has not been refreshed, which means that the king is not dead yet.
【Seven Steps Away】
Ash took three steps and came in front of a young man. He heard the guard next to him exclaim that this was the eldest prince.
Without further ado, Ash pressed down with his palm, and the Heavenly Punishment Fire directly burned the young man into ashes.
But the achievement has not been updated yet.
"Tsk, he's not dead yet?"
Ash curled his lips and continued to kill his blood relatives.
Finally, Ash held a swaddled baby in one hand: "Now, you're going to die."
The baby had a look of fear in his eyes, he couldn't understand how Ash had tracked him down, even if this unknown baby could have discovered it.
Ash burned him clean with fire, and a message appeared in his sight:
{Achievement: [White Rainbow Piercing the Sun] achieved, reward: Strengthen inherent skill: [Blood Fight].}
"Finally dead, this old ghost is quite cherishing his life."
Ash received the reward.
[Blood Fight]: Designate one person to fight with you in another dimension, [Blood Prison]. In [Blood Prison], you gain the venue effect, Bloodbath: Your own blood-related skills are greatly enhanced. The winner lives and the loser dies. Cooldown time: 7 days.
A strange, roaring muttering sounded in Ash's ears.
Asking for a monthly ticket!
