Chapter 105: The Lion Dreams of Peace
The eclipse moment that obscured the sun collapsed.
It is but an illusory shadow, which cannot forever obscure the holy and burning sun.
As the guardian angel was killed by Latan Magnus, the apostles hid in the other world with the surging blood mist, but they did not die. Instead, they lay dormant quietly, ready to wreak havoc on the world again at any time.
After all, their God still exists and will exist forever.
Castle lord-class knight mechas swarmed into the town in front of the academy to carry out a sweep. There was almost no physical damage to the buildings, but the air was filled with an evil and resentful atmosphere, which was the trace left by inhuman creatures trampling on the land.
Only around the small church in the town, that Gothic building with a golden emblem of a double-headed eagle hanging high above, was there no trace of evil aura left. On the base of the statue of a saint holding a holy water bottle on the doorpost, a bloody and dying old man was leaning on the ground.
"Mr. Moody!"
Percy recognized the old man's identity at a glance. He had once aspired to join the Ministry of Magic, so he was already familiar with the legendary experience of this old Auror. Even though the other party's only good leg was eaten by the inhuman creature, and his flesh was bitten to pieces by the huge mouth with huge fangs, he could still recognize him from the eye sockets enlarged by the magic eye.
The Pride of the Family knelt at the door of the chapel, its skull-like head pushed forward by hydraulic rods, exposing the double operating room inside the neck. Percy and his girlfriend Penelope hurriedly pulled out the neural cables connected to the special driving suit and jumped down to check Moody's vital signs.
Eighty percent of Moody's organs were necrotic, his spine was twisted like a rope, and there was a huge gap in his skull, so much so that one could even see his brain tissue...but he was still alive!
This is simply an impossible miracle!
"Merlin's beard..." Penelope looked up at the sculpture of the girl on the church doorpost. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she actually saw a hint of cold golden light in her marble eyes, staring at Moody quietly.
"Wingardium Leviosa!" Percy waved his wand, causing Moody to float. "Penelope! Stimulating potion! Quick!"
Penelope quickly used the Summoning Charm to summon the emergency pneumatic syringes designed by Professor Snape from the cockpit of the mecha. The round metal head was pressed against Moody's skin, and the thin, short and sharp needle popped out immediately, injecting a standard unit of invigorating potion into him.
Moody groaned, as if he had used up all his strength to open his scarred eyelids, and "looked" at Percy and Penelope with blank eyes. The sun shone through the clouds on his face, and he asked in a mosquito-like voice: "We... won?"
Percy said firmly, "Latarn is here, and victory is assured!"
A trace of relieved smile appeared on Moody's torn mouth. "That's good..." he said, and the palm with only three fingers left loosened, and a wand that looked like a rotten branch slid down, and like its equally broken owner, it could finally rest.
"Medical team!" Penelope screamed, "Where is the medical team?! Come here!"
The one who arrived before the medical team was Wardenal.
These superhuman soldiers, whose average height was over two meters, looked at Moody with reverence. Even though they had completed five blood rituals, they were still having a hard time fighting the apostles. Because of this, Moody, who fought to the death with his old and weak body, was even more worthy of their respect.
After the medical team arrived, it took only a few seconds to make a conclusion: "I'm sorry, this is probably a fatal injury. We can't waste time and medical resources on a person who is about to die."
Percy's ears instantly turned as red as his hair. He grabbed the officer with a cold tone and roared, "You—"
"It's useless even if you kill me." The medical officer, whose uniform was soaked with blood, calmly pushed Percy's hand away. "There are still many soldiers who need emergency treatment. I care more about those who can survive than considering a person who is about to die."
Percy stared blankly at the blood on his hands. Medical teams armed with live ammunition were interspersed on various fronts in the battle. They rescued the same number of soldiers as they killed enemies. They were also heroes, and he had no right to blame these angels on the battlefield.
"This is war." The medical officer patted Percy's shoulder, "I'm sorry I can't help him."
The medical team left in a hurry. Penelope knelt on the ground, holding up Moody's body, and asked anxiously, "Is there no other way?"
"Have."
English with a thick Slavic accent came from the communication device built into Percy and Penelope's driving suits. Zangief from the Soviet Union was standing on the battlefield in a giant knight mecha Iron Torrent, using his guns to prevent the Rhodes Island troops from advancing too far.
Although on the surface Rhodes Island and the Knights of the Red Lion joined forces to fight the enemy, the Soviets, who had experienced the disintegration, always remained highly suspicious of their so-called allies.
Zangief said calmly, "Comrade Magnus has already considered this. He has prepared a device that will allow severely injured soldiers to stand up and fight again."
Percy quickly asked, "What is it? How do I do it?"
"Go to the Primaris," Zangief said after a brief silence, "and start the Dreadnought."

Sekiro is full of confidence in himself.
As a "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice" player, he has always despised the poor mobility and combat effectiveness of the controllable characters in other soul-series games, thinking that they are clumsy and stupid.
Moreover, his favorite thing in his previous life was to step on other games on various platforms with his noble identity as a Sekiro player, and always talk about the fact that he had completed the double difficulty mode (strengthening the enemy and weakening his own attributes).
As for the fact that he activated the Fengling Yueying modifier, which locked health points, immunity to abnormal states, unlimited items, one-hit kills, unlimited resurrection throughout the entire process... naturally, no word was mentioned about it!
In this life, Sekiro possesses the most powerful modifier system. He only needs to defeat powerful enemies or obtain money through sacrifice to gradually unlock all the functions of the modifier!
Now, even though only the infinite resurrection and infinite items functions are enabled, a mere Ratan... humph, no problem!
After all, he only needs to use Kugamaru to launch the "Ninja Killing", and he can kill anyone, whether it is a human or a god!
As Ratan flew towards the Demon Tower, greed appeared in Sekiro's eyes.
How much money will the system reward for killing a demigod, and how many functions will be unlocked!
"Hey!" Allen, the time traveler from the Attack on Titan system, crawled out of the hole in the ground. He looked around in panic, fearing that the Red Lion Knights would find him hiding underground, and shouted to Sekiro, "Where are you going?"
Sekiro glanced at the time traveler Allen with disdain, "I'm going to kill Ratan."
The time traveler Allen's eyes lit up. If the wolf killed the enemy's general, he wouldn't have to hide underground like a mouse. He asked anxiously, "Will we win?"
Sekiro grinned, "We'll win!"
----
The friction between Latan's body and the air produced a raging flame, and it slammed into the top of the Demon Tower like a falling star in the wilderness. The demons that poured out like a tide were instantly turned into ashes under the bombardment of the violent purple lightning, and the power of hell symbolizing the seven deadly sins also dissipated!
Immediately afterwards, more demons poured out from the space cracks cut by the Yama Sword!
"Brother Lonely." Latan held the head of a demon that looked like a mummy holding a sickle in one hand. The gravitational waves from both sides crushed it into a plane thinner than paper. He said to the silver-armored warrior wielding the magic halberd of the goddess of vengeance, "Hold on, I'm coming."
Gravity magic, dark waves swept across the top of the tower. The triple deep purple rings used repulsive force to blast the attacking demons into the air, and then crushed these incarnations of sin with a hundred times the gravity!
Pride, jealousy, wrath, laziness, greed, gluttony, lust... The demons incarnated by the seven deadly sins are as vulnerable as chickens and dogs in front of the Star-Breaking Red Lion that controls gravity!
Minamoto Kiyotaka coughed up another mouthful of blood. The wound on his chest that was cut by Sekiro with the Undead Slash still showed no signs of healing. Blood flowed out from the soft seal on his neck like a waterfall. "It's just a minor injury, not worth mentioning. Red-haired monster, I'll take care of this, you go help Brother Duck!"
Word Spirit·Ghost Victory, fifty times physical enhancement!
The Dragon Feast type magic armor was deformed and cracked by the hybrid's rapidly growing muscles. Minamoto Kiyotaka pulled out the thunder hammer with leaping arcs of electricity from the rune book on his shoulder and swung it together with the magic halberd. The blue halberd blade and the heavy hammer head blocked the demons at the mouth of the space rift, as unshakable as a magic needle that stabilizes the sea.
Even after being injected with the Nibelung serum, Minamoto Kiyotaka would not be able to hold out for long with this level of increase, but he believed and firmly believed that Latan could get rid of the time traveler Virgil before he fell.
"Don't be so stubborn." Latan respects Minamoto Kiyotaka's samurai spirit of "honor in death and shame in life", and will not allow his friend to die of exhaustion.
Therefore, when he looked at the suspended platform above the tower that was divided by the leaked space force due to the battle between Dante and Virgil, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Driving demons to wreak havoc on the world has already touched Latan Magnus' bottom line.
The magnetic field emblem shone, and Ratan soared into the sky, crashing into a completely independent space. Dante on the platform had already entered the Demonized Zero State. The Rebellious Greatsword dragged silver light, and every slash was aimed at the head and neck of the traverser Virgil!
As a gift left by Sparta, the strongest swordsman in hell, to his son, even a half-demon like the time traveler Virgil would die if his head was chopped off by the rebellious sword.
But by the same token, the Yama Sword in the hands of the time traveler Virgil also has a fatal killing power on Dante.
Latan did not rush to attack, but instead spent a full thousandth of a second observing the fight between the two.
Dante was naturally merciless to the time traveler who occupied his brother's body, but the time traveler Virgil's attack was very strange.
The focus of the Yama Sword's attack is not Dante's fatal spot, but the arm that holds the Rebellious Greatsword.
The Rebellious Greatsword possesses a united force that is opposite to the Yama Blade, which symbolizes "division". The time traveler Virgil wants to seize the sword and then completely merge his soul with Virgil's soul!
Really...
"What a crude scheme."
Latan rushed down without any warning, and the time traveler Virgil was shocked, but the Shattered Star Red Lion had already raised his knees and legs and stomped on the head of this shameless scum who occupied another man's body and killed Dante's biological mother!
There was a loud bang like a cannonball exploding, and the tremendous power brought by its huge body caused countless rocks to rise from the platform, and then melted into magma like ice and snow under the sun under the high temperature brought by the high pressure. When Latan stepped on the ground again, this high-temperature orange tsunami pressed towards Virgil!
Virgil roared, and the Yama Blade cut through space. He instantly moved to the top of the platform, barely avoiding the lava tsunami that was tens of meters high, but the soles of his shoes were still burned by the high temperature and emitted unpleasant smoke.
"Red Hair!" A hint of surprise appeared on Dante's demonic face, but his tone was very unhappy, "This is a battle that belongs only to me, don't interfere!"
“Magnus!” The time traveler Virgil gritted his teeth and said with fear and resentment, “This is an independent space that I cut out with the Yama Blade. How the hell did you get in?! Do you have some power that I don’t know about?!”
Latan motioned Dante to wait, and asked Virgil, who had landed on the platform, "Do you know Maxwell's equations and the special theory of relativity?"
