#286 - Section 286
She wouldn't believe that a mortal who wasn't even a hundred years old could truly pose a fatal threat to her.
The troubles before should have been the limit, right?
"Mortal, you have earned the right to look me in the eye."
Without summoning any weapons, she met the Eternal Night Empress with her fists, fists gleaming with dark light.
The world generally believes that the Goddess of Darkness is a persona of the Goddess of War.
But in reality, everyone was deceived by her; the Goddess of Darkness is her true form, and the war god image that has always appeared before everyone is just a disguise.
So, when Taibella got serious, what she released from her body was endless anger, an urge to destroy the world, and an indescribable desire for slaughter!
Boom!
When the Spear of All Wishes collided with her fist, the aftermath alone tore apart the Conqueror's Canyon, revealing the infinitely deep astral realm.
But in the collision, it was the Goddess of War, with her deeper accumulation, who was sent flying backwards.
She looked in disbelief at her dissolving, incomplete fist, a sneer appearing on the corner of her mouth: "Source Sea?"
"Yes, the Source Sea."
The Eternal Night Empress's spear, as deep as night, suddenly became colorless and transparent.
This was not magic, but because what was contained within were not only space fragments but also the water of the Source Sea, the water that could assimilate everything and return it to tranquility.
That water was originally colorless and transparent, able to see the clarity of the abyss, and now that it was injected into the Spear of All Wishes, it actually erased its original color.
The Eternal Night Empress had been hiding this move, revealing the true form of the Spear of All Wishes at the last moment:
The Spear of All Wishes and the Sea!
Even the body of a god could not stop the Source Sea, and the power of faith could only resist and disperse its consumption.
"It's interesting that a mortal can reach this step. Come again!"
Taibella, however, changed her previous scheming and bitchiness, using the power of faith to repair her body and once again proactively attacked Huanmaru.
She knew that the Eternal Night Empress would not feel good after the collision just now, and even if she could withstand it, the golem she was piloting was at its limit.
Today, even if she had to use up all these years of Guang's accumulation, she would make this arrogant mortal pay the price!
Gods cannot be humiliated!
...
...
Outside the Conqueror's Canyon, the light of teleportation shone, and the Empire's fleet arrived one after another.
They had already discovered the subtle changes in the entire world, and the technical consultant revealed an excited expression: "Your Majesty has successfully spread the faith virus, and the battlefield is beginning to lean towards our side!"
Roger nodded calmly: "Break through the defenses of the divine kingdom and provide energy support to Your Majesty!"
That woman once allowed him to unleash unlimited magic.
Now, if she wants to fight, then he will let her fight to her heart's content!
Chapter 264: Your Majesty, the Empire is Always Behind You
Conqueror's Canyon, although there were only two people left here, it did not become quiet.
Instead, because of a battle between a god and a mortal, constant doomsday-like roars erupted, and the entire world seemed to tremble and disintegrate as if it could not withstand the aftermath.
This was also because the entire world was condensing into combat power along with the Eternal Night Empress, resisting the Goddess of War.
Taibella, fully displaying her dark traits, gradually had a hint of triumph in the madness in her eyes.
She could feel that the mortal who challenged her was not as fierce in her attacks as she had been at the beginning.
"What if you've calculated everything? The gap between a god and a mortal is ultimately beyond your imagination."
Taibella looked at the huge golem that had already cracked, her slender fist bombarded the alloy that condensed the highest achievements of the Qing Teng Empire, but it was the alloy that shattered.
The intersection of the fist and the Spear of All Wishes and the Sea was still intersecting, never stopping.
But Taibella returned to simplicity, and her fist, with its power and speed reaching the universe's tolerance limit, always found a way to bypass the Eternal Night Empress's defenses and directly act on the golem.
When strength reaches their level, the so-called ranged, melee, moves, and skills are no longer very different.
At this time, what is being compared is the understanding of the power level between the two sides, as well as the accumulated strength of the two sides.
The Goddess of War had a deeper accumulation, while the Eternal Night Empress directly simulated the water of the Source Sea, temporarily maintaining a balanced situation on the field.
But if the battle continued, it was obvious that the balance of victory would tilt towards Taibella.
This was the reason for Taibella's triumph. After fully entering a state of angry combat, she had a madness originating from the depths of her soul, willing to use any means to win, regardless of consumption.
Completely unlike the little bitch who schemed to take all the advantages in peacetime.
A misjudgment in personality and power attributes caused Taibella's originally perfect battle plan to have a very serious error.
Behind the Eternal Night Empress was the Qing Teng Empire's nearly ten years of planning. From the moment Tasika defected to Roger, the revenge against Taibella could be considered to have officially begun.
All subsequent preparations were to smooth out the gap between gods and humans and weaken the strength of the Goddess of War, which gave the Eternal Night Empress the opportunity to look directly at the gods.
It was just that Taibella still hid a trick. Her true power belonged to darkness, the Goddess of War was just a persona, and anger and chaos were her origins.
This was an attribute that she had never shown to the outside world in the past. She even publicly used the Goddess of Darkness as her persona. It could be said that she had deceived a large number of the Empire's "Taibella scholars."
The Eternal Night Empress was not a god after all. Her confrontation with Taibella had to be carried out on a specific battlefield and at a specific battlefield opportunity in order to smooth out the accumulation gap created by time.
The Eternal Night Empress was confident in challenging this god, not only because of the recklessness and belligerence in her personality, but also because of the results of countless simulations.
Fighting in the divine kingdom this time, the information between the two sides was seriously asymmetrical. The gods never took mortals seriously. A single soldier infiltrating and planting a faith virus had a much higher chance of winning than a large army pressing on and confronting Taibella head-on.
The latter method might really have to be dragged on for hundreds or even thousands of years before the gods like Taibella with deep accumulation could be resolved, and then there was the possibility of the other six gods intervening.
The Empire simply did not have that kind of time or that kind of luck to gamble on stable means. All the plots developed as she hoped.
Therefore, after conducting several large-scale battle simulations, the Eternal Night Empress chose to pilot Huanmaru to sneak into the Conqueror's Canyon, extremely weakening the strength and accumulation of the Goddess of War, and then launched a frontal challenge to her.
The final implementation result can be said to be quite ideal. The Conqueror's Canyon was completely and completely lost. The holy spirits and angels absorbed and cultivated by Taibella were all infected, and the divine kingdom itself became the Empire's home field to challenge the gods.
But they still miscalculated. They did not expect Taibella to hide so deeply. Her true face was not that little bitch, but a crazy fist saint, a martial arts fanatic who would do anything to win.
The Eternal Night Empress suddenly realized that this dark side, this madness in pursuit of victory, was more in line with her god name of "War."
It's just that the personality of that little bitch that she put in front of all living beings was too real. At the same time, it was also a disguise hidden inside the great and upright image, which made all the Empire's theology, military, and psychology experts ignore the possible disguise of Taibella's personality.
The most powerful thing about Huanmaru is its battlefield adaptability. The Eternal Night Empress prepared a total of three forms for this battle:
Stealth, defense, and strong attack.
They respectively correspond to spreading the faith virus, waiting for the virus to take effect, and finally fighting the Goddess of War.
The Spear of All Wishes and the Sea is also a set of artifact designs aimed at the war spear and shield that the Goddess of War has always used, and it is very famous in the multiverse.
The gap between the two sides always exists. We must make up for the shortcomings of mortals with various calculations in order to dig out the possibility of victory.
But after the decisive battle began, the Goddess of War revealed her true face as the Goddess of Darkness. Her fists were better than any miracle, and all the preparations that the Eternal Night Empress had made before were in vain.
Huanmaru is now quite mature. It is not impossible to fight the Goddess of Darkness in a strong attack form, and it is also possible to adjust the attributes on the spot to better adapt to the power form of the two sides at this moment.
But all the previous advantages, and the fatal killer moves that were not willing to be given up, still could not work perfectly. Taibella used a lie that lasted for tens of thousands of years to successfully drag the battle into a war of attrition that she hoped for.
In this state, the Eternal Night Empress's disadvantage of ambushing and not being familiar with the golem was gradually smoothed out, but she was going to fall behind in Taibella's huge accumulation.
But at this time, facing the crazy and furious Taibella, listening to her triumphant declaration, the Eternal Night Empress showed a carefree smile:
"Gap? It can't be determined until the last moment when the winner is decided!"
She shook her spear again, driving countless heavy lightning lights, seeming to stir the weight of the entire Conqueror's Canyon and pressing down on Taibella.
"Yes, if it weren't for this arrogance and stubbornness, you wouldn't have been able to walk in front of me."
Taibella couldn't help but laugh too, but she laughed extremely mockingly, feeling that victory was getting closer and closer to her.
It's also a very interesting thing to put down those disguises and have a reckless battle!
It's just a pity that the other party is still a little young, and the accumulation of that empire is still a few years short, not enough for her to use her hands and feet to her heart's content.
At this moment, in Huanmaru, the Eternal Night Empress's injuries were more serious than the golem she was piloting.
Taibella's methods against living things are more abundant than those against golems.
The strength revealed by those delicate fists can penetrate magic defenses and the layers of protection of the golem, directly applying it to the Eternal Night Empress's body.
In order to increase the sense between her and the golem, there is not only sweat in the special close-fitting rubber suit, but also blood flowing out from the cracking of her body.
At the same time, the magic power in her body also has a tendency to dry up.
The Spear of All Wishes and the Sea is a conceptual spear that can only be driven by huge energy. It is not a physical object, nor is it made of any precious materials. It is completely made of space fragments and the water of the Source Sea. These two indestructible and insoluble materials are forcibly bound and driven to become the indestructible weapon in her hand.
Therefore, using this weapon is also a very terrible challenge for her. Every minute and every second is a terrible consumption.
And after the great success of magic, she has finally felt the exhaustion and the feeling of being unable to continue that she only had when she was young after I don't know how many years.
Gods are ultimately transcendent existences. Their existence itself is a miracle, representing the ultimate manifestation of individual power.
The Eternal Night Empress walked step by step in front of the Goddess of War, suppressing her with her personal strength and the power of the Qing Teng Empire, forcing out her true face, and keeping pace with her destructive power, which can be completely called the pride of mortals.
Boom!
Taibella suddenly changed her fist to a palm and forcibly grasped the Spear of All Wishes and the Sea.
Although her palm would be melted by the water of the Source Sea, she was also constantly injecting massive amounts of faith power to regenerate flesh and bones, and then forcibly restricted the trajectory of the spear.
She grabbed the spear as an axis, and her body rotated like a windmill. Her empty hand, her legs, and her dancing long hair were all weapons, frantically launching continuous attacks towards the wide-open Huanmaru.
The martial arts that she had practiced for tens of thousands of years were displayed vividly in an extremely violent and irreversible posture.
She was like a ball of angry fire, burning to the extreme, seeming to burn everything in front of her.
"Destroy, ant!"
Taibella loosened her hand holding the Spear of All Wishes and the Sea, and the spear also collapsed into nothingness. The collapsing wind erosion pierced through the Conqueror's Canyon, making the already riddled world even more dilapidated.
At the same time, Huanmaru was also shattered.
This empire's pinnacle work that has been transformed countless times is not an eternal and immortal thing after all. Under Taibella's attack, it shattered into seven or eight large pieces of wreckage, as well as countless fragments and parts, which shot in all directions.
The Eternal Night Empress gritted her teeth and endured the explosive force that was transmitted to her body thousands of times through Huanmaru. At this moment, she was completely using magic power and willpower to piece together her body so that it would not collapse.
"Then... let's die together!"
She also loosened the control lever and raised her hand with difficulty, and her eyes showed a fighting spirit that was no less than Taibella's.
In the past, she was also a madman who was as belligerent as crazy and only knew how to attack!
It was only for the sake of the country behind her and the responsibilities on her shoulders that she restrained her nature and always released her aggressiveness to a limited extent.
But facing an enemy of the level of a god, a rational battle is obviously not enough now. She was also forced into a desperate situation by Taibella, seeking survival in death, and trying one last time!
Just like she had been in countless desperate situations in the past, gambling to seek victory and miracles!
Surrender is absolutely impossible, and giving up is absolutely impossible.
Even if it's just to consume more of Taibella's accumulated faith power, my choice is to attack again!
Without Huanmaru, I am still the most powerful magician in the Eternal Night World, mastering countless attack methods.
"I, am, the, Source, Sea!"
The light lit up between the Eternal Night Empress's fingers. She didn't have much magic power to use the water of the Source Sea, so she directly transformed her body into a simulated Source Sea and crashed into Taibella.
The core cockpit of Huanmaru ejected the Eternal Night Empress with the last remaining structure.
No more ammunition?
Then, I, am, the ammunition myself!
"Are you a mad dog?"
Taibella saw through the Eternal Night Empress's intention, but she was outputting to Huanmaru, and the moment she attacked successfully was also the moment with the biggest flaw.
Even gods cannot reverse certain basic laws.
Taibella's general opponents would definitely panic, be at a loss, and make a series of mistakes at the moment their weapons broke, and even directly lose their will to resist.
In her expectation, the best result was that the Eternal Night Empress would fly out like a broken rag doll, and then it would be the moment for her to condescendingly mock.
In the end, the Eternal Night Empress didn't. The instant Tibella forcibly changed her move, the Empress had already sprung into action, fighting her with everything she had.
Their battle didn't allow for any leniency or hesitation simply because of their gender.
