The Book of Gaia flew to Magadal's chest, and the pages flipped. She slowly raised her head, and her eyes reflected the entire battlefield. Two halos rose from her left and right, as if an invisible force was lifting her long hair. A mechanical voice rang across the battlefield.
"Please select your target."
Four light blue virtual screens appeared in front of the Nun Princess at the same time, invisible to others. The first screen filtered out all the dust and smoke on the battlefield, as well as the sounds of killing and blood. The second screen would highlight all the moving units, distinguish between friend and foe, and calculate their movement trajectories. The third screen listed the terrain of the entire battlefield from left to right — distance and elevation.
When the last screen was superimposed on the last screen, the logo of Gaia appeared on the screen. After rotating 180 degrees counterclockwise, the black and white dragon emblems representing Martha and the Twilight Dragon separated, and a huge gray shadow shrouded Magadal's eyes.
Although this was not the first time she had used the Book of Gaia, every time she used its power, Magadal could not help but be amazed.
"Please select your target, Titan GX-013." The mechanical voice repeated again.
"I am Magadal." The Nun Princess stubbornly repeated.
"As you wish, Your Highness Magadal." The mechanical voice repeated.
Magadal's gaze froze in the middle of the battlefield.
She briskly reported three readings. This seemingly simple task was the result of Andrea and the others' efforts over the past month. Just to let Princess Magadal identify the coordinates, the Goddesses of War had to correct her misconceptions of the world.
Of course —
At this moment, Magadal still stubbornly believed that it was the Path of the Golden Flames and the other three sages who started this era. After the War of the Holy Saints, the stars in the sky were rewritten, and the gods no longer cared about this world. The mortals carefully followed the path of their ancestors, and even if some of them fell, most of them still held on to the right beliefs.
But as if she had inherited some memories from her bloodline, she finally accepted everything she had seen and heard after the Battle of Fenhotos, including the strange remarks that Andrea had told her.
"This is what you call the Law," Andrea once said to her when she talked about her past and the power that corresponded to the Book of Gaia. "It does represent part of the truth of this world, but it is more of a man-made law."
At that time, Magadal had a look of confusion. She opened her mouth slightly, as if she had heard something unreasonable. "But that is the law set by the gods. Wohnde was born under the law set by Lord Martha!"
"No matter who made the rules, it is only one of the rules. It may not be true, or the people of the gods wouldn't have such a huge disagreement —"
When Andrea said those words, she hesitated. "We gain power from it, and in turn, we maintain our Order, but the cost of maintaining it is too high, and we cannot bear with it. In the end, we could not bear it.... so, we cannot bear it, we, we have to restart.
"What is a mortal?" When she mentioned this word, Magadal noticed the obvious sarcasm in the girl's voice. "Haha, a mortal is hope. Some people are tired of this game, but more people are not willing to change. You will not understand the contradiction between us. The gods are not noble, but of course, we have no choice. "
Andrea let out a long sigh. "Compared to the past, I prefer the present. Although countless people have sacrificed themselves, including myself and the commander, every one of us could be sacrificed at any moment, at least there is still hope. Without those endless excuses and wrangling, the lives and values of the warriors will be reflected on the battlefield."
Normally, Magadal would not understand Andrea's self-mocking words. But she could at least hear one thing. Whether it was Andrea, the Undead Queen of Madara, or Mr. Brando, or even the people she hated, such as the Empress of Cruz, everyone was fighting for that unknown glimmer of hope.
But according to Andrea's words, it was just a struggle.
Magadal could not understand whether the goal was despicable, noble, or worthless, but she only needed to understand that at this moment, everyone's fate was linked to the survival of this world. Even she could not stay out of it.
And this was the reason why she decided to listen to Andrea's orders and join the adventurer team.
During that time, the only thing that Magadal was puzzled about was that whenever Andrea mentioned Brando, she would always be filled with a different kind of emotion towards this' commander '.
She understood that it was not pure love between a man and a woman, but a kind of hope for the future that was rarely seen in the Goddess of War.
What kind of secret does Mr. Brando have?
Magadal would occasionally think about it, but she never got the answer to this question. In her opinion, this young Knight who claimed to be from the Karsuk Highlands was a standard Erouine noble, but sometimes he was a little rebellious. But what really impressed her was the noble spirit that he had inherited from the ancient times.
Sometimes she could not help but compare Brando to the 'noble' who died in the battle of Ampere Seale. Although she did not want to admit it, even before that noble showed his ferocious face to her, he could not compare to this Count.
"Target confirmed."
In the end, Magadal silently abandoned all unnecessary emotions and said these few words.
When she said these words, she felt an inexplicable feeling fade away from her, like a huge sense of loss. She had never felt so unfamiliar with herself before. She could not help but wonder, "Am I the Princess of Antoburo, the devout believer who follows the rules and never dares to challenge tradition and authority, or am I the more real self in front of me, a titan from an ancient civilization?"
The powerful energy from the Heart of the Dragon surged under the princess's chest, and the sound of her steady pulse seemed to be silently answering this question.
"Gryphine …" Magadal could not help but mutter to herself, "Where should I go from here, why has the world become like this?"
But the mechanical voice did not care about her complicated emotions.
It simply replied, "The attack range has been confirmed."
Then it repeated with an even more rigid voice, "Transferring authority to the original core network, attacking and charging. Countdown, 4, 3, 2, 1 …"
This additional command pulled the Nun Princess out of her complicated thoughts. When she was practicing with Andrea and the others, she had never encountered such a situation. "Wait, why is there a transfer of authority?" Magadal asked anxiously. She was not familiar with the Book of Gaia and her own powers, and this sudden change of events made her panic.
But the worst-case scenario did not happen, and the mechanical voice did not answer her question.
In the dark sky, the cloud-like thing that Brando saw earlier suddenly split in the middle, and then three spots of light lit up from the south to the north. Although from the ground, the three spots of light that looked like stars were very close to each other. But in fact, the distance between them was enough to cover a range of tens or even hundreds of miles.
Then, a faint ray of light fell from the sky.
This strange scene was so eye-catching in the dark battlefield that it even attracted the attention of Huang Huo and Fang Qi. As for a place further away from the battlefield, there was also an even deeper gaze looking at this place.
When the ray of light fell to the ground.
Suddenly, there was a dull sound from the ground, and under Magadal's calm gaze that had abandoned all emotions, the battlefield was split into three sections.
That wasn't an exaggeration. Instead, the plains in front of the hills had completely broken apart. Amidst a series of creaking noises, three huge subsidence zones were formed one after another.
Then, she uttered the name of this spell word by word, "The Highest Verdict."
Aloz was fighting with the Devourer of Divinity. When she tore off the monster's snow-white face with her claw, and exposed the bloody flesh behind, the monster let out a terrifying scream and tried to retaliate with its four arms. But under the little female dragon's shocked gaze, its claws suddenly sank and missed one of her claws.
Because the two of them were suddenly separated by a sudden force.
It was a clear boundary between realms, leaving the little female dragon and the horrifying monster on the left and right respectively. The former was fortunate enough to survive, while the latter lost all its footing — its massive body began to tilt backward, and fell into a cloud of dust.
The non-physical ground slowly sank in the sharp noise, like a capsized ark. The grid that formed the ground suddenly became sharp and twisted on the plains, and slowly bent downwards.
And with it, thousands of void monsters sank.
