I Save The World In A Doomsday Text Game

Chapter 304: Sin Dragon Dagon, Behemoth Progenitor Barton, King’s Sword Itan

[All defensive forces of Saint Rance have assembled around the White Moon Church.]

[Under Lord Fox, more than one thousand elite soldiers form up in squares, with a militia of two thousand behind them.]

[The White Moon Church has fewer defenders, but they are far more elite and ferocious than the lord’s soldiers.]

[Nearly one hundred Paladins of Discipline on towering warhorses grip greatswords at the giant’s feet, ready to charge and cut at any time.]

[Behind them are lightly armored Guardian Knights, Black-Robed Priests holding prayer books, and Choir Sisters.]

[The White Moon Church’s total strength is just over five hundred, yet these five hundred are enough to annihilate an army of ten thousand.]

[The Yellow-Robed Bishop raises a silver scepter and gazes from afar at the blood-colored meteors falling from the horizon.]

[There is not a trace of fear on the bishop’s face, only boundless fervent devotion.]

[Not only the bishop, everyone in the White Moon Church wears the same fanatical expression. To sacrifice life for faith is the highest honor.]

[This fervor even infects the lord’s soldiers. The hands that clutch weapons no longer tremble. Confronting the might that is about to descend, they forget fear.]Lin Xun took a deep breath.

He knew that the power of a demigod was terrifying, even exceeding the Great General’s still-unrevealed third form, far from anything he could withstand now.

But compared to the final battle of the Evil God chapter, he now had a friendly story character at the same demigod level at his side, Dan.

In Chapter 323, Lin Xun remembered the text then spoke of three Solar Heroes.

Now there were four Solar Heroes.

At this moment in time slightly before Chapter 323, the missing Solar Hero was very likely the one who would fall in the demigod war at Saint Rance.

In other words, even without his help, Dan alone against three would still be able to kill one demigod.

[You possess the Shell Fire-Worshipping Palace Master of Iya Palace.]

[You shake the Refined Copper Sand Maraca and the Battle Angel – Valkyrie, steps forth from the void.]

[She bears a golden giant bow as long as a mortal body. A pair of great metal wings beats constantly, keeping her aloft.]

[You wave the Purifying Exorcism Wand and summon shikigami yokai who swore to die for you.]

[A gaunt youth appears at your side. Origin-Tracing Nurarihyon answers your summons.]

[The scenery near the White Moon Church suddenly changes greatly. Rows of low houses vanish and the street beneath your feet turns into parched earth.]

[The blazing sun pours endless sunlight upon the land. Looking up, the sun in the firmament seems restored to its former state, with no trace of scarlet.]

[Everywhere the eye falls, it is filled with the dazzling brilliance of the burning sun. The intense sunlight parches and cracks the earth.]

[The believers go mad with fervor at this sight. The Yellow-Robed Bishop raises his scepter and cries loudly, ‘May the divine light be with you.’]

[The devout voices of countless believers spread across the parched earth, calling the name of the divine light with the bishop.]

[A deep violet thunderbolt suddenly appears.]

[A peerless beauty steps through the air. Her sleeves flutter. Purple lightning like a raging sea coils around her. Behind her rises the phantom of a vast celestial fox that throws back its head and howls.]

[Origin-Tracing Nine-Tailed Fox answers your summons.]

Lin Xun did not summon the Snow Woman. The Snow Woman’s slowing support suits weak groups of monsters and is negligible against super bosses like Solar Heroes, a point already proven in the duel with the Great General.

He continued operating the Palace Master Shell and used the talisman United Resolve to enhance his shikigami.

[…]

[You take out a sheet of bright yellow talisman paper again. As you chant, the talisman self-ignites.]

[An arched barrier appears around you. The barrier is small and can only contain one person.]

[You order the Valkyrie, Nurarihyon, and the Nine-Tailed Fox to draw near, then unfold the Absolute Barrier Seal of the Ten Directions, bringing the three summoned beings within.]

[You and the three summons hide beneath the protection of an unbreakable barrier, quietly waiting for the blood-colored meteors to fall.]

The power of a demigod was by no means something he could contend with now.

Even the strongest among the shikigami, the Nine-Tailed Fox, after stacking buffs, was still far from that level.

Lin Xun’s role for this battle was clear, support.

Nurarihyon’s phantom-field damage boost was support, the Valkyrie’s archery or using the Abyss Lantern at a critical moment was support, and the Nine-Tailed Fox would control while dealing damage, also support.

Even he himself would have to transform into Saio Chisoku-hime and serve as healer for the demigod Dan.

One could say the most crucial pieces in this battle were the Shell of Saio Chisoku-hime and the healer’s divine tool Amateru Sakiina’s Harvest Sickle.

[The blood-colored meteors draw closer and finally crash into the parched earth.]

[At that moment even the firmament takes on a visible hazy scarlet sheen.]

[Three blood-colored figures stand silently.]

[The largest is a crimson giant dragon. Its body is as vast as mountain ranges. In places where the scales have flaked away, scarlet flesh is revealed, already decayed and rotten.]

[The dragon roars and beats its wings. Its wings nearly cover the entire sky.]

[That was once the legendary Golden Blazing Sun’s Adjudicator. No, now it should be called the Corrupting Blood Sun’s Adjudicator, Sin Dragon Dagon.]

[Next is an equally colossal beast. Two curving horns as thick as peaks sprout from its head. It goes on all fours like a lion or tiger, its body laid bare in knotted scarlet muscle like a huge flayed monster.]

[It is the Corrupting Blood Sun’s Watcher, Behemoth Progenitor Barton.]

[The smallest figure is actually a human. That human who could be called a giant of men is immensely robust, covered all over in scarlet heavy armor, only a pair of likewise scarlet eyes visible.]

[It grips a giant sword that glows with blood-colored sunlight. As it walks, its figure drags thick bloody afterimages.]

[That is the only human demigod among the Solar Heroes, the Corrupting Blood Sun’s Judge, King’s Sword Itan.]

[Looking at the three blood-colored figures of different sizes, a deep shudder of despair rises from the bottom of your heart.]

[None of the believers behind you can believe it. The legendary Four Solar Heroes have all descended upon Saint Rance.]

[Yet only the Defender of the Golden Blazing Sun, Titan Giant Dan, still defends the sun’s honor. The other Solar Heroes have betrayed their former faith and sunk into scarlet monsters.]

[The believers never imagined they would have to face three Solar Heroes who had betrayed the Blazing Sun.]

[For a time, whether Paladins of Discipline or the lord’s soldiers, all sink into despair.]

[No matter how powerful mortals may be, how could they contend with Solar Heroes of legend who are demigods?]

[‘Fools.’]

[Seeing your soldiers hanging their heads, you cannot help but shout curses.]

[You raise Dan the Giant’s Blazing Sun Ring and call out loudly. ‘So what if three of the Solar Heroes have become fallen monsters.’]

[‘They have strayed from the oaths of their former faith and no longer receive the gods protection. Having lost the might bestowed by the gods, how are heroes any different from mortals?’]

[‘Do not forget that Titan Giant Dan still holds firm to faith and is strengthened by the Golden Blazing Sun’s divine power. Facing three oathbreakers who have lost divine power, Dan will surely defeat the fallen heretics and execute them all.’]

[The Yellow-Robed Bishop is the first to raise his scepter and shout loudly, ‘May the divine light be with you.’]

[The believers seem to have found a backbone. Devout shouts calling the divine light’s name once again resound across the sunlit earth.]

[Under the infection of fervor, hesitant and fearful eyes gradually turn firm and fearlessly unyielding.]

[Under the Yellow-Robed Bishop’s command, the Choir Sisters chant a Hymn. Splendid divine light covers the Paladins of Discipline.]

[Nearly one hundred Paladins of Discipline launch a fearless charge at the only human hero, King’s Sword Itan.]

[Behind the Paladins follow Guardian Knights and more than a thousand soldiers.]

[The Yellow-Robed Bishop leads the priests in chanting incantations. Holy radiance gathers and a large-scale divine art is about to be unleashed.]

[Sin Dragon Dagon pays no heed at all to the believers. It beats its giant wings and whips up roaring winds, flying straight at Dan.]

[Behemoth Progenitor Barton also raises its mountain-thick horns like the blood-red dragon and charges straight at Dan.]

[Only the human hero, King’s Sword Itan, is left to face a frenzied charge from thousands alone.]

[From beneath the bloody heavy armor comes the human hero’s muttered whisper. ‘Lost lambs, why needlessly sacrifice your lives.’]

[‘You will all return to the Lord’s flock and back to the Blood Sun’s embrace.’]

[Facing the vast momentum of the charge, King’s Sword Itan steps forward, each step measured and unhurried.]

[The frenzied charge is like slamming into a solid iron wall. The Paladins of Discipline at the front are thrown from their horses. The iron flood forced to divide and flow around the blood-colored pillar.]

[King’s Sword Itan walks slowly through the charging formation. It seems unwilling to harm the lives of those who were once its own kind.]

[Only when a knight’s lance is about to thrust into its heavy armor does it raise that door-thick blood-colored greatsword and swat the attacker, man and horse, into pulp.]

[And in its wake, the knights collapse to the ground, unable to fight again.]

[…]

[An earth-shaking crash erupts. The whole land seems to tremble.]

[Dan braces both feet against the ground and retreats step by step, plowing two gigantic ravines like valleys.]

[He grips the two thick horns of Behemoth Progenitor Barton in both hands and forcibly stops the beast’s terrifying charge.]

[Blood-colored dragonfire falls from the heavens like a violent whirlwind. It is about to swallow the giant.]

[Titan Giant Dan lets out a sky-shaking roar. Dazzling sunlight bursts from his whole body. His hands locked on the beast’s horns do not loosen but clamp tighter.]

[He suddenly stamps, twists his waist, and, clutching the horns, actually hoists the mountain-like behemoth into the air. Boundless divine power surges through him as he hurls the behemoth into the scarlet dragonfire that is about to fall.]

[The behemoth’s vast body not only blocks the falling dragonfire, it also carries the dragonfire with it and crashes toward Sin Dragon Dagon with jaws agape in the sky.]

[Blood-colored dragonfire erupts. The two colossal beings crash to the ground together.]

Lin Xun was dumbstruck.

“Dan, are you really this strong?”

With a teammate so capable, he naturally could not drag them down.

[You take out a talisman covered in blood-colored script and drive the onmyoji forbidden art Onmyo Talisman: Filth Purification Rebirth.]

[Black flames burn. The yellow talisman paper turns to ash. Tadpole-script runes like blood pour into the Nine-Tailed Fox.]

[The Nine-Tailed Fox’s white hair flies. Nine huge fox tails appear behind it. A celestial fox phantom throws back its head and howls.]

[While empowered by the forbidden art Filth Purification Rebirth, it also unleashes its nine-tail power and transforms into its strongest state, Nine Tails Patrolling the Heavens.]

[The Nine-Tailed Fox raises the Purple Lightning Soul-Guard Orb and triggers the Legendary-grade weapon trait Purple Firmament Divine Thunder Tribulation.]

[A thick black cloud suddenly appears in the firmament, veiling the light of the erupting blood dragonfire.]

[Rolling thunder booms. Deep violet lightning flashes constantly within the Divine Thunder Tribulation Cloud like countless thunder serpents writhing and roaming.]

[The Nine-Tailed Fox bears the orb and points at Behemoth Progenitor Barton fallen on the ground.]

[Resplendent violet lightning descends.]

[A divine thunderbolt falls from the heavens. The sudden burst of light stabs your eyes with agony and your vision is filled with deep violet lightning.]

[When the light fades, the eardrum-shattering thunderclap spreads across the sky.]

[You focus your gaze. The exposed scarlet muscles of Progenitor Behemoth Barton are covered in scorch marks, but these are not from Purple Firmament Divine Thunder Tribulation. They were caused by Sin Dragon Dagon’s breath.]

[Progenitor Behemoth Barton shakes its enormous head, butts aside the nearby Sin Dragon Dagon, and rises.]

[It roars. Its muscles writhe. Dead, scorched skin sloughs off. It charges Dan again with a might not one bit less than before, as if all its injuries had instantly healed.]

[Sin Dragon Dagon also beats its wings and takes to the sky again.]

Lin Xun could not help but curse.

He did not know whether this counted as Behemoth Progenitor Barton being unbreakable or not.

He ordered the Nine-Tailed Fox to continue attacking. While the Divine Thunder Tribulation Cloud persisted it would not consume mana anyway, so he would squeeze out as much damage as possible.

But he quickly shifted his target to Sin Dragon Dagon.

As the Blood Sun’s Watcher, the Progenitor Behemoth not only had astonishing defense but also a monstrously perverse recovery ability.

Even Sin Dragon Dagon’s bloody breath could only inflict minor wounds that healed in an instant.

Facing the assault of a dragon and a beast, Dan alone held the absolute advantage, pressing the two fallen giant creatures hard.

Lin Xun found that he did not even need to heal him. At this rate, victory for Dan was only a matter of time.

He seemed to have forgotten that there was still one Solar Hero who had not acted.

[King’s Sword Itan suddenly halts. He has reached the end of the charging ranks. Behind him lie thousands of knights and soldiers collapsed on the ground.]

[Even the Choir Sisters’ chanting in unison cannot make the soldiers rise to fight again.]

[The bishop’s and priests’ large-scale spells fall, only to be cleaved apart by King’s Sword Itan’s greatsword.]

[He suddenly raises the greatsword, the tip pointing at Titan Giant Dan who is fighting a bloody battle. From beneath the scarlet heavy armor comes a hoarse voice.]

[‘The judgment will be held here.’]

[‘The former Defender of the Golden Blazing Sun, Titan Giant Dan, is an evil heretic who has betrayed the Lord.’]

[Dan’s figure suddenly sags, as if shackled by some invisible fetter. His every movement turns heavy and sluggish.]

[Facing the fierce assault of Sin Dragon Dagon and Behemoth Progenitor Barton, he gradually falls into disadvantage.]

“Damn.”

“Could it be that this King’s Sword is actually the strongest among the Solar Heroes?”
