The setting sun was just right.
The light of dusk cast a brilliant light on the ground. It was the last light of the day, and there was a trace of sadness in its magnificence.
A shadow was cast on the ground.
It was Capullo's shadow.
He walked out of the Holy Helm Castle alone.
The old marshal bit a cigar, wore a fox fur cloak and a golden lion uniform. His back was ramrod straight, step by step, he walked towards the figure in the distance. He stopped the Golden Lion's army from fighting, and even the defensive turrets on the Holy Helm Castle did not move a single one, afraid that it would cause a misunderstanding.
Capullo had never expected that the Twilight Son would return and find him. The other party's meaning was obvious. He didn't directly attack the Holy Helm Castle, but invited him to fight outside the city. Therefore, Capulo left the city alone. He had no choice but to leave. If he didn't, the Holy Helm Castle would be finished.
The distance between him and the Twilight Son wasn't close, but it wasn't far either.
It would take some time to walk like this. As he walked, Capullo suddenly remembered his life's past. He was born on the surface and had a hard childhood. His family had five children, and Capullo was the oldest. Therefore, he had to come out to work to earn money and help his parents run the family from an early age. Originally, if that was the case, it wouldn't have been a big deal. After all, everyone who lived on the surface had to work hard. However, the sudden arrival of the bandits destroyed his home. Overnight, countless familiar people died just like that. Including Capullo's parents and four siblings. When the Federation Army arrived, Capullo did something that changed his life. He joined the Federation Army.
After that, he underwent incomparably arduous training, and he gritted his teeth and endured every training. Due to his outstanding performance, he finally won the second turning point in his life. Under the stimulation of the potion provided by the Federation, he successfully ignited the fire seed and officially embarked on the path of Origin Energy.
Along the way, Capullo never retreated. From a private, to a captain, to a general, and finally to a marshal, he had never retreated a step in countless battles, even when he faced the Paragon of Agares on Kidd. Even though that battle had a great impact on him, even so, after decades of hibernation, he reappeared in everyone's line of sight.
He had never backed down in his life. This is probably the portrayal of Capullo.
Today was no exception.
And Capullo knew that this was probably his last war.
When he stopped, he could already see the man a hundred meters away. Capulo sucked hard and the cigar quickly burned out, turning into countless ashes that drifted down. Capullo spat out the last ring of smoke and asked indifferently, "Why did you find me? As far as I know, there are at least two other people on Earth who have the same combat power as me. That's why I'm curious. Why did you look for me? "
"It's simple. When you 'killed' Kallistan that day, I knew you were still holding back. For a human, the power you possess is quite impressive. It could even be said that on this planet, you are the most powerful being. So, isn't it the most natural choice to kill you first? "The Dusk Child's tone was extremely calm, as if he was narrating an ordinary matter.
"If that's the case, it would be my honor."
The Dusk Child nodded. "That's why I advise you to use your full strength from the very beginning. Otherwise, you'll regret it. "
"I think so too." Said Capulo.
Then, the sun finally leapt below the horizon and night fell.
However, the sky was getting fiercer and fiercer. Streaks of azure-golden lightning exploded in the roaring clouds. The lightning gathered together and suddenly broke through the clouds. A large ball of lightning condensed into the image of a giant lion in midair. The lightning lion turned into a plasma waterfall that landed on Capulo's body. As the lightning flashed, Capullo's cloak instantly turned into ashes. Then, his uniform exploded into thousands of butterflies, revealing Capullo's old but still vigorous body.
As the lightning flashed, Capullo's body trembled continuously, and a low rumble sounded from the ground. These sounds came from Capullo's body. His body quietly expanded, his muscles were even more developed, and his hair was already gray. Every strand of hair suddenly turned golden, and the wrinkles on his face gradually disappeared. In the blink of an eye, Capullo's face changed from an old man over fifty years old to a dignified man who was almost middle-aged.
When the lightning disappeared, Capullo seemed to have returned to his youth, at least twenty years younger. This kind of youth was not only reflected in his appearance, but also in the vitality of his body. At this moment, Capullo's body had returned to the most precious golden stage of his life. His aura was far stronger than when he fought with Greed that day.
When Capullo activated his full strength, Horn, who was playing chess with Spear Demon Fordin in the Bescot family base, suddenly trembled. Then, Fordin also felt the aura. The two of them exchanged glances, and Fordin said doubtfully, "Is this Capullo's aura? But it feels a little strange. "
"To be precise, that's his aura when he was young." Horn put down a chess piece and narrowed his eyes. "Why, Capullo suddenly erupted with all his might. And judging from the aura he emitted, he didn't intend to hold back. What kind of existence could force him to fight with all his might? "
Fuding couldn't answer this question.
There were a few other people who also felt Capullo's aura. One of them was Windsor Bellow.
Greed had already returned to Earth, and the Earth Mother Core he had brought from Frost Star had almost been analyzed. Now that Earth was temporarily in a stable state, Windsor Bellow had nothing to do. She, who was bored choosing the menu, suddenly felt Capullo's aura and read some information from it.
"This old fellow is actually going to risk his life?" Windsor Bellow was stunned. Then, she turned around and rushed into the bedroom, preparing to change into her combat uniform.
She had to go and see what kind of person forced Capullo to risk his life. Then, she received a message. The message was sent in the name of Mobius, and there was only a short sentence on it: Don't act rashly.
Below was a footnote, indicating that this was a message from Saint Helm Castle, and it was only relayed by Mobius.
The same message was sent to Bescot.
Looking at this message, Windsor Bellow sat down and rubbed her forehead, "Is this old thing planning to be a hero?"
On the ground outside Saint Helm Castle, the wind breathed like a desolate horn.
Looking at Capullo, who was bursting with energy, the Son of Dusk laughed, "Aren't you going to call for some helpers? At least on this planet, there are one or two experts who can reach the same level as you. If you call them, your chances of winning will probably be higher. "
"No need. Since you've come alone, let me greet you." A smile appeared on Capullo's youthful face. "Besides, I've already notified those guys before I left the city. This is my war, and no one can interfere. "
"I really don't know where your confidence comes from. Do you think you can defeat me? "
"No." Capullo grinned. "But I thought about it. If I go all out, I should be able to leave you some souvenirs."
"Oh, why do I feel like you're not such a person?"
"I think so too. When I left the city, I was still thinking about whether I should deal with you a little and then evacuate. After all, it's not my style to die for such a righteous cause, but when I saw you, I suddenly came to a realization. Back then, when I faced the Sovereign of Agares, I didn't even dare to punch him before I was defeated. Even though I found countless reasons for myself afterwards, it inevitably left a lingering shadow in my heart. "
"It's precisely this mental barrier that prevents me from ever touching the door to the Sovereign Realm. And just now, I wanted to escape, just like the scene from decades ago, so I knew that I would never be able to advance to the Sovereign Realm in my life. "
Capullo laughed, "So I suddenly figured it out. Since that's the case, I might as well risk my life. At the very least, it seems good to be able to buy some time for my race in the end. "
Then, brilliant light blossomed from Capullo's body. Just as the light penetrated his body, it was gathered by an invisible force, forming pieces of golden armor on Capullo's body. The armor continued to combine, finally forming a brilliant set of battle clothes. This was Capullo's strongest posture, and when he fought Windsor Bellow, he only condensed two golden armors.
As soon as the battle armor appeared, Capullo walked towards the Son of Dusk. The back of the battle armor spat out blazing flames that hung down from his back like a cloak.
The Son of Dusk also greeted him.
The two of them walked faster and faster.
In the end, in the dim night, a golden light and a dim yellow light rushed towards each other and collided forcefully in the middle. Then, an extremely intense light blossomed at that point, like a sun rising under the night sky. Only then did the shockwaves of the energy collision spread out. The earth rumbled, and even the distant mountains trembled!
The Holy Helm Castle was also affected. The city seemed to have suffered a strong earthquake. The buildings shook, and cracks appeared on the walls of some buildings. In the command hall of the city, a general said in a deep voice, "Activate the shield."
Then, a barrier of light rose from the surroundings of the city and finally gathered above the Holy Helm Castle, forming an energy shield. At this moment, an extremely strong tremor came from the battlefield. Circles of light that were like the aurora of the earth slowly swept past. As these light patterns slid past the shield, the shield flickered unsteadily. The brain in the command hall kept sending out alarms, and the energy shield was being consumed. The general could only order the energy supply to be stopped throughout the city and most of it was used to maintain the shield.
Those seemingly harmless auroras were actually very terrifying. Otherwise, the shield of the Holy Helm Castle would not have been consumed so quickly.
