Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

The ruler and his sons...

Chairman, Primarch, Astartes?

Leon reacted in an instant, and said, According to what you said, you and your companions sneaked in secretly to inquire about information, in order to increase the possibility of cooperation by helping us humans solve the immediate incident?

It can be understood in this way. Ina did not deny it: We wanted to investigate the specific sacrifice steps of the Jilahani people and the detailed plan before preparing to officially appear in your field of vision.

heard the words.

Leon saw that Agent X-441 did not do anything, indicating that what the elf said in front of him should be true, but he still emphasized his tone and replied:

However, this kind of sneaking behavior has given us a negative impression of you Vailin... or the Mar people.

As he spoke, he added: I have no right to decide on cooperation matters, but I will truthfully report what you said.

Understood, it's our negligence and poor consideration. Ina nodded.

See here.

Leon also nodded slightly, and said the last question: I want to know why your companion ran away after you entered the rainforest, and why he called everything a trap of the evil god Pallas.

This... Hearing the question, Yi Na seemed a little hesitant.

After struggling for a moment, she explained: Because she had already become delirious when she was hunting down and interrogating the Jiralhani with us.

From her fragmented and logically confused words, it was mentioned that the sacrifices were not humans, but the Jilahani tribe, and attacking and encircling them would only lead Pallas to the world.

That's why I'm reminding you not to continue attacking. Afterwards... her body was completely occupied by Pallas, and even her soul might be swallowed by that evil god. .

Hmm... Leon pondered and said, Otherwise, those beasts have no fear of death, and even want to die.

And... Ina said at this time: She also mentioned that among all the goals of Pallas, it also wants to possess and corrupt a son of your ruler.

Especially after we've killed enough sacrifices that it already has the ability to briefly step into reality.

…

While interrogating Ina in Leon.

Harvest star low-earth orbit, inside the bridge of Hope.

John, dressed in uniform, stood by the center console, looking at the star map of the border fort.

The star map indicated that there were ghost-faced beasts bewitched by Pallas on the surface of eight colonized planets, including Bulton.

five hours ago.

John adopted Brea's suggestion to promptly stop the comprehensive suppression of ghost-faced beasts, and instead blocked and restricted its range of activities.

But even so, according to the statistics sent back by the grassroots officers, troops at all levels still wiped out more than 400,000 ghost-faced beasts during the encirclement and suppression operations.

Counting the tens of thousands that were scattered before, the total number of ghost-faced beasts on the eight colonized planets of cholera is at least one million, and the losses caused to the local area are incalculable.

is a trouble.

But at this moment.

John, who looked away from the holographic star map, found that the bridge was plunged into darkness, leaving only the center console in front of him emitting light.

What made John frown slightly was that the feedback given to him by psychic perception was that there was nothing abnormal, and he could still perceive that he was manipulating the flagship and mobilizing the crew of the entire fleet.

Since it's a trouble, let's destroy them, how about it?

Immediately afterwards, a female voice that pierced people's hearts and had a very pleasant voice echoed in the bridge.

heard the words.

John turned his head, turned sideways, and looked at what used to be the entrance and exit of the bridge, that is to say, the source of the words.

I saw a woman whose appearance could be described as flawless, slowly approaching him.

The opponent is about 1.8 meters tall, has snow-white skin and waist-length blond hair, is wearing a white gauze dress, and is wearing a golden armor in the style of ancient Greece. The giant shield in the left hand and the battle spear in the right hand are also scattered in the darkness. With a touch of golden light.

However, behind the other party, there is a pair of huge bird wings that are as beautiful as colorful glazes.

Even though she has a pair of unusual wings, her golden ratio figure and perfect face make this woman exude the same goddess aura as Artemis.

The woman spread her hands, dissipated the spear and round shield, and continued to smile at John:

Since those low-level cosmic apes are a problem, let's wipe them all out and leave none behind...

However, the woman hadn't finished speaking, and was interrupted by John who had rushed to her.

Without hesitation or hesitation, the Primarch threw his right fist at that beautiful face.

Flesh~! The wind of the fist was fierce, and it hit the woman directly on the head.

But there was no expected crisp sound like a watermelon cracking, and there was no tactile feedback from the right fist.

Because the right fist went straight through the woman's head, there was no tactile sensation that indicated that she was not an entity, but some kind of image, or illusion.

Afterwards, the woman smiled slightly, and dissipated her figure on her own initiative, blending into the darkness, and said:

Be patient, John, you are a god...but what I appreciate is your ruthlessness with your enemies.

...

Seeing that the physical attack was ineffective, John withdrew his right hand and stood still, ignoring the other party's words and closing his eyes slightly, trying to use spiritual energy to break the space.

Sensing that John was continuously releasing spiritual energy, the woman had no choice but to stop joking, and said in a solemn tone:

I forgot to tell you, I am the goddess of war and wisdom, Pallas, Pallas Athena, one of the twelve main gods of Olympus.

It's just that after the woman, or the evil god Pallas reported himself, John remained indifferent, releasing his spiritual energy to compete with the space created by Pallas.

And Pallas, in fact, is the goddess Pallas Athena who followed the father Zeus and led the army of Olympian servants into the different space.

Just she...

No, it should be that its current appearance, as well as the previous killings in Poulton, show that it, like Aphrodite, was corrupted into an evil god by a different space.

At this time.

Pallas continued to patiently say to John: John, you are a god, and you are the God of War who inherited the Spear of Fear.

Your father has been deceiving you and your brothers since the very beginning. He didn't treat you as children, but just used you as a tool to rule the galaxy.

Because you have lost your father's love and mother's love since you were young, you only need to give a little favor to get your gratitude and love.

However, he is indeed doting on your hypocritical big brother, that guy named Robert, and Leon who thinks he is superior to you...

Only if you are arranged in this chaotic and conflicting star area, you are obviously the most powerful, the strongest deity among all brothers!

Don't forget, your father has been emphasizing that there is no God, but God does exist!

John, wake up, stop deceiving yourself, face up to your identity as the God of War, and command the Spartan Legion! Command all humans to slaughter all aliens, and capture them as cheap slaves or pets of humans!

I will always teach you and accompany you, unlike the father who regards you as a tool and sends you to perform various difficult and dangerous tasks when you are underage.

There is no falseness in Pallas's words, and the sincerity is extremely sincere. Coupled with his soft and melodious voice, even if he is vaccinated and a determined veteran, it seems that he cannot resist the personal solicitation of a goddess.

Unfortunately…

No matter how reasonable and emotional Pallas was, John never opened his eyes, said a word, and only cared about releasing his spiritual energy to break the space that trapped him.

Although I knew this was the result, I am very unwilling, haha.

Pallas did not become angry, and laughed at himself, and said: In this case, I have no choice but to wait for me to step into your world and come to talk to you face to face.

But before that, John, you need to take a remedial class to understand more clearly what is the difference between a mortal and you as a god of war.

Remember your identity, you are no longer a mortal, but a god, destined to accept the admiration and worship of mortals.

The voice fell.

!

Sensing the strangeness, John suddenly opened his eyes, and saw that the dark space was collapsing and collapsing on its own, showing the original appearance of the bridge, and also saw the busy crew.

But Boom~! There was an explosion.

The flames quickly engulfed everything on the bridge.

outside the ship.

The bridge located in the upper area of ​​the Nozomi was full of flames, the portholes exploded, and the α-titanium alloy deck was twisted and deformed.

The bright light produced by the explosion is extremely dazzling on the sunny side of Harvest Star.

Although the bridge was damaged, the main body of the Nozomi was not severely damaged, and it still kept the same rotation speed as Harvest Star, and there was no sign of sinking for the time being.

The two closest Zeus-class aircraft carriers and the four Steadfast-class frigates rushed to the vicinity of the Hope without stopping, releasing a stable stance emitting lavender light, acting as temporary tugs to ensure that the Hope would not suddenly lose control.

Immediately afterwards.

The Zeus class and the firm class dispatched a large number of engineering boats and rescue boats out of the hangar, and one of the rescue boats flew directly to the vicinity of the bridge of the Hope.

in the cockpit.

The communication channel was extremely noisy, and it was not difficult to guess from the intermittent content that the Second Army had entered a state of emergency preparations.

The faces and demeanor of the two pilots wearing sealed pressure suits under their HUD helmets have become extremely dignified.

After all, the commander-in-chief of their Second Army, who is also the governor of the border fortress, is on the bridge of the Hope.

Even though the two pilots knew how powerful their commander was, they were in the center of the explosion without wearing power armor, and their bodies were exposed to a vacuum environment full of radiation at minus 270°C...

The more these were considered, the heavier the two pilots' hearts became.

But when they drove the rescue boat and arrived at the bridge where the flames had long dissipated and turned into a mess and a completely open state, they found John in tattered uniform.

At this time, the Primarch's right hand was holding onto the twisted railing. Apart from his uniform being torn, his exposed skin also had some burnt black spots, and his short hair was slightly curly, he was fine on the whole.

! !

Seeing this scene, the pilots immediately reported the incident and drove the rescue boat to the top of the bridge.

overboard.

The hatch on the right side opened, and four medical teams equipped with light white power armor left the rescue boat and slowly approached John through the small nozzle.

near.

stop.

The four medical teams worked together to transfer John into the cabin. After closing the hatch, the pilot continued to drive the rescue boat back to one of the Zeus-class.

…

Shortly after.

In a medical cabin of the Zeus class.

John, who took off his broken uniform and put on an oversized hospital gown, sat beside a hospital bed dedicated to providing treatment for Astartes, and was examined by several on-board doctors from the Luna Base.

In the cabin, there were still many silent warrior guards wearing Terminator power armor.

John still had that indifferent face, and his eyes were fixed on the several holographic screens presented in front of him, reading the latest information from Leon, Jerome, Byron and others.

At the same time, John also uploaded what happened just now to Queen Hong, who then passed it on to his father.

Sir, there is nothing unusual about your body. Your physiological functions and various statistics are good. It can be said that you are very healthy. A doctor reported to him.

... John nodded without saying a word.

Seeing this, the doctors also left wisely.

There is no need to deliberately ask, John, who was in the center of the explosion, had already sensed that the unknowing and conscientious crew members had all died.

But he was unharmed.

The difference between gods and mortals...

Pallas...

Straightening out all the clues in the past half month, and based on the interrogation results provided by Leon, John guessed that what the fallen goddess did was indeed preparing to contact him and try to corrupt him, and even the entire Sparta Legion.

It's very unpleasant to be targeted by evil gods.

There is an urge to personally lead an army to slaughter those ignorant ghost-faced beasts used by evil gods, and to kill everything.

However, John quickly calmed down. After all, this overly aggressive attitude would be in the hands of Pallas.

At this time.

Seeing the message reminder on the screen, John got up and left the bed, and waved his hand to signal the warrior guards to leave the medical cabin first.

There is no one else in the waiting room.

Numerous blue light spots emerged from the holographic device in the cabin, condensing into a real-time image of Sui Bian.

After the image was generated, John said, Father, the true identity of that evil god Pallas is Pallas Athena who followed Zeus into a different space ten thousand years ago.

I read your report. Sui Bian nodded lightly, and said, Artemis is expected to arrive at Harvest in four hours, when she and the gray knight will assist you in completely eradicating the corrupted ghost-faced beasts.

Since it wants to come to the real universe, let it come. Leon and I have also revised the destination and will arrive in Poulton in twelve hours. Before that, the report I want to hear is that you succeeded Hunt down Pallas.

I see, Father, and... John hesitated to speak.

Don't get entangled. Sui Bian changed the subject, without reprimanding or teaching, but exhorted with the usual demeanor:

Nothing will affect the trust between our father and son, and I will not have doubts about you because of a trick of an evil god, so let me do it freely.

Everyone, please take a day off tomorrow~
