A crimson bolt of lightning descended from above, falling where Gu Qing Shan was.
Gu Qing Shan stood still with his sword in hand, not moving at all.
When the Soul Obliterating Lightning was so close that it almost touched the tip of his sword, he finally sighed in relief.
Lola had done what she needed to do.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the giant bolt of Soul Obliterating Lightning — — -
There's no need to endure it anymore.
At the very next moment.
— — as if someone had switched the scene, Gu Qing Shan and the Soul Obliterating Lightning both disappeared and swapped places.
Divine Skill, [Shadow Shift].
The lightning struck the ground.
Boom!!!
Dirt was blown up into the air, forming a bottomless crater in the middle of the square.
"Tch … such power, what a waste"
Gu Qing Shan looked back and regretfully sighed.
While in the air, his body flickered and flew straight up like a bird piercing the clouds, heading straight for the top of the sky.
On the way, he was constantly dodging and avoiding the bolts of Tribulation Lightning.
— — Lola's coming of age ceremony was over, so he didn't want to touch even a single bolt of Tribulation Lightning.
The wind was howling in his ears.
The Tribulation clouds were roaring in anger, preparing for the next wave of attacks.
The bolts of Tribulation Lightning that he dodged all stopped their descent and quickly flew up to chase after him.
Gu Qing Shan drew the Chao Yin sword, flew through the Tribulation clouds, and pointed at the dark sky.
It's time to kill the [Demon King Order]!
But at this moment.
But time stopped.
Everything became still.
Gu Qing Shan found that although he couldn't move, he still retained the ability to think.
A thought connected to his mind, speaking with a voice full of vicissitudes of life.
「 Young man, I've been observing you for a long time, as well as watching you and Lola for a long time. Now, I've been summoned, so I've once again appeared in front of you 」 the thought spoke.
"Who are you?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
That voice sighed and said, "Me? I was originally recuperating on your body, but now it seems that I have work to do."
Gu Qing Shan reacted and asked, "Are you the armor that Lola gave me? Are you hurt? "
"Correct, let's get straight to the point — — back in Aboul, Triste used the four poisonous thorns granted by the Lord of True Demons to assassinate the Bramble Bird royal family"
"Four poisonous thorns?"
"That's right, at the time, the Bramble Bird King, Queen, Lola and her brother were taking a family photo when Triste suddenly attacked them from behind"
"How did Lola survive?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"At the last moment, His Majesty covered me with Lola's body."
"Because Lola has the [Shelter of Infinite Worlds] ability, as long as she isn't killed by Stinger on the spot, she can immediately activate [Shelter of Infinite Worlds] and escape from Triste's pursuit"
"… Lola has a great and wise father"
"I really must say, that Demon Lord's thorn was very powerful, even [Time Stanch] couldn't stop it, I was even wounded when I tried my best to defend against it"
"What about Lola?"
"Fortunately, she's fine"
The armor's will became serious and asked: "I have a serious question for you right now"
"Please go ahead"
"Fate has always given people choices, and this choice will result in unpredictable changes for both you and me — — I need to know, do you want to wear me and continue to fight for the rest of your life, or do you want to return me to Lola after this battle is over"
"Return me to her" Gu Qing Shan immediately said.
The armor's will replied: "You can actually consider taking me with you, after all, there aren't many armors like me in the entire world"
It continued: "I don't like to stay on the Saint Bramble Tree, nor do I like to always appear as a status symbol armor for the King of a certain race, I want to go on a real battlefield"
"No, this has nothing to do with our choice"
Gu Qing Shan shook her head: "You originally belonged to Lola, she lent you to me, and I'll return you to her after the battle is over, that's all"
"But — –" the armor was about to continue.
Gu Qing Shan cut it off: "A father, in the final moments of his life, wished for you to protect his daughter, I can feel his final longing for his daughter"
"Since you were able to resist the Lord of True Demons' poisonous thorn, I hope that you can stay by Lola's side and protect her from now on"
"This is her father's last wish, as well as a request from a stranger like me"
"Because of that, I will definitely not take you with me"
The armor silently listened to her.
Time was still in a state of [Time Stanch], everything around them remained still.
All of a sudden, a chuckle resounded.
The armor's voice became calm and pleased: 「 In truth, I also have a vow with the Saint Bramble Tree 」
"What vow?"
「 I swore to forever protect the Bramble Bird race that brought me out from the Chaotic Abyss, to forever protect their King 」
The armor continued to smile: 「 Just now, if you had been greedy and wanted to take me away, I would have directly returned to Lola's side 」
「 But now, it seems Lola still had good eyes and chose a suitable protector 」
「 Since that was the case, I shall follow the wishes of both you and her, and fight by your side 」
As soon as he said so, the world returned to normal.
The sound of wind could be heard.
Gu Qing Shan found herself continuing to fly upwards.
The Tribulation clouds were preparing for the next wave of attacks.
Lola stood at the top of the tree, loudly cheering for herself.
The Tianma were all preparing themselves, waiting for the moment when the sky would split open.
[Time Stanch] had disappeared!
At the same time, a faint layer of white light appeared around Gu Qing Shan's body, a bit like mist, but also a bit faint.
"This light is — –"
"It's me, I am a creation of the Old Gods, invisible"
"Why is it in this form?"
"Because light is the manifestation of the majesty of a creation of the Old Gods"
As the armor spoke, Gu Qing Shan noticed two lines of glowing text appearing on the War God UI.
"Your armor has already entered combat mode."
[You may now check the armor's detailed information, would you like to check it?]
"Check it now"
Gu Qing Shan replied.
Lines of glowing text appeared one after another.

[After that, the Lord of True Demons did everything he could to destroy this armor that betrayed him]
Reading through the entire explanation, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but sigh.
So even armors have emotions.
The Lord of True Demons' crushing defeat was most likely because the armor took revenge for the Bramble Bird royal family.
"Alright, I'm going!"
Gu Qing Shan loudly declared.
It's time to kill all the enemies!
It's time to end everything!
Following Gu Qing Shan's determination, the faint light around his body became even more intense.
A mysterious and dignified presence began to exude from his body.
At the same time, a voice resounded from within the intense light.
