At this moment, blood surging above the disc-shaped Helios, gathering, climbing upward towards the axis of the entire world, along the giant tower of light of Puruus.

Like the Tower of Babel that once went against the gods.

The obsession that has been passed down for thousands of years has reappeared since now, and the fruits that countless alchemists have dreamed of are right in front of them, towards the sky and towards the high sun wheel.

Publius, no, all the alchemists above Helios, the souls who sink into hell, the dead who do nothing, and those wills with unwillingness and pain, stretch out their palms towards it.

Even after a long period of change, this achievement has gradually lost its meaning.

But the mountain is there.

Following the path left by the gods, the alchemist launched the climb again!

boom!

On the Tower of Light, the drinking alchemist stiffened his movements, sighed, and raised his head to drink the last drop of sweetness.

"What a pity..."

He murmured softly, closed his eyes, and silently turned into ashes.

His strength was exhausted, but the next Purbulius raised his pupils again and threw himself into the torrent without hesitation until the too hot flame burned out.

Then, next one.

Next one...

Countless souls that split out, with the same obsession, threw themselves into the furnace, laying the foundation of the tower with their ashes, and making the blood-colored hand go up, up, and upward.

Until the end, regardless of the burning of the sun wheel, he held the empirical evidence of the gods firmly!

Pull downwards inch by inch.

It's like a hungry and thirsty gods are going to swallow them into their stomachs.

"Great Spirit of God, I will offer you all the 'sacrificial'-"

Publius is burning.

In the flames, he kept throwing himself into the furnace, grinning and laughing wildly.

"—Please mourn me!"

.

"Um?"

At that moment, at the scene of the Landlord Competition under the heart of the Perpetual Freezing Furnace, the skeleton holding the cards paused for a moment.

It seems to be confused.

"It seems...what...is not right..."

It slowly lifted its skull covered with paper, looked at the blood light that was spreading through the sky and earth, and finally felt the gravitational force and call coming from the center.

Involuntarily, he was pulled away from the earth, floated and flew towards the sky.

"Mom!"

It screamed: "I'm going to ascend!"

Huai Shi reacted and quickly reached out, and the rope of sadness extended out, entangled in his skeleton, pulling it away.

Behemoth also opened his mouth and bit his head, trying to fix it in place.

But the attraction of the same origin is too huge and there is no way to stop it.

Quickly, its arm cracked into a crack, and then the large rotor fell out of its body and flew into the sky first. Immediately afterwards, the bones on its body shattered under the constraints, turning into pieces and dust, and quickly flew towards the giant tower of light.

By the time Huai Shi realized it, the skeleton had completely fallen apart and disappeared.

Only a thin wisp of source remains in place.

Like a phantom.

Only a translucent skull was left, and it was faintly emitting source-like fire, as if it suddenly turned from a skeleton to a ghost.

Losing consciousness and entering a state of dementia.

“Aba Aba Aba Aba Aba…”

"What the hell?"

Huai Shi scratched her head, unable to understand it. While trying to maintain the final source of the skeleton, she heard the reminder behind her.

"It's useless for you to do this."

The old voice said, "Publius has recovered all his lobes, and it has lost its foundation of dependence... Don't you have divine wine? Soak it in and keep it intact. If you continue to do this, it will probably really disperse."

With a reminder, Huai Shi's movements were very fast.

Move out your water tank and then carefully put the skull in.

Seeing it wandering around like a goldfish in the purified divine wine, Huai Shi couldn't help but feel sad. Well, this time she really made a drink.

As the essence of the source, divine wine has a maintenance effect on all broken souls. But no matter how you look, it looks like you are soaked in formalin.

"Can't you just die like that?"

Huai Shi's worrying whisper.

"The God of Wine will maintain its existence. As long as it can recover what was taken away by Puruus, your friends will be able to restore it."

The visitor who did not belong here has come to the conclusion.

When Huai Shi turned around, she saw the old man holding a cane, the uninvited guest who came here...

Garland.

He couldn't help but frowned.

"Why are you here, Grand Master?" he asked, "Are you here to punish me, a arrogant person who violated the contract?"

Beside Huai Shi, Behemoth raised his claws and licked the sharp blade, sparks bursting.

The eyes became dangerous.

Behind Garland, Rachel's face was pale and she couldn't help but take a step back.

"Why scare people, Huai Shi."

Garland said coldly: "Although you have successfully won a lot of time, now the showdown before God has lost control. When Publius truly pulls that sun wheel into his matrix, he will become the new sun god, the real master of Helios. If we want to stop him, we must join forces. Whether in terms of reason or interests, it is the only choice for you and me."

"oh?"

Huai Shi was amused, "I sold so thoroughly at the beginning, but now I look back and talk about cooperation. Is the grandmaster's skin a little too exaggerated?"

"I admit that the fragmentation of the landmark was something I intended, but isn't this part of our deal?"

Garland was still calm and without any guilt: "It is meaningless to return to the Son of Leviathan, and Rachel is a proof of this.

Leviathan after being infiltrated by Publius is more dangerous than Helios. All those who are not in the contract have no way to escape, but I will save you."

"Where is the key?" Huai Shi sneered: "Heris also saved me by letting me over your name?"

"Isn't this what you asked for in person?"

Garland asked back: "I have even determined your purpose with you again and again. You want to get the crystallization of light, but without my authority, you will not be able to enter the core of Helios.

I've reminded you of the risks-

From the beginning, the contract stated that, 'both parties must not deliberately harm', and this article is still valid now, Huaishi."

In his hands is that ancient contract.

The top clause still shines, proving its authenticity and effectiveness.

"You can say that I took advantage of loopholes or deceived you. After all, we have never had any trust from the beginning, right?"

Garland said: "But now, if we want to stop the situation from getting worse, we must join forces. This time I will not use the contract to give you any bondage. After the matter is completed, all the gains, all the relics of Purulius, and even any of my belongings can be given to you.

If you are still dissatisfied with me, it doesn't matter if you want to betray it, but I believe that we are each other's only choice above Helios now."

"It's right, it's a pity that I'm not interested in your blank check at all."

Huai Shi was still cold and unmoved.

"But you won't let the believers of the flute-player reach a conspiracy before their own eyes, right?" Garland said: "We have the same interests. We don't need to be friends. We just have common enemies."

He said, "Even if it's all that, I believe we have the foundation to join forces."

In the silence, Huai Shi looked at him silently without saying a word.

After a long time, he laughed mockingly.

He had to admit that the old man had grasped his bottom line and had already known his choice. Compared to an alchemist, Garland might be more suitable to be an intermediary or broker.

It can always give reasons that people cannot refuse.

You can always grasp the situation, always understand the most important things, and always control the rhythm.

I can always make others fool around.

It can always succeed.
