Not only the 6 Main Elemental Messengers, Chen Rui was also stunned.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such a situation would happen.
Chen Rui didn’t know that under the influence of the ‘man’, the original Godhood reshaping became Godhood projection reshaping. The projection certainly couldn’t maintain the reborn will of the elemental goddess for a long time. Therefore, even if the man didn’t destroy the elemental goddess will, she would also dissipate within a limited time.
What Chen Rui could sense was that even the newly reshaped elemental goddess Godhood (projection) and will had unparalleled power. Even if the [Analytical Eyes] could not be activated due to distance or space, he could confirm that the kind of power far exceeded the peak stage of the Pseudo-God including SSSS+ and SSSS++ levels.
In all fairness, the man didn’t show oppressive momentum or power over Rafferty. However, he actually easily destroyed the projection that Rafferty descended upon.
Maybe the man had special power that Chen Rui couldn’t understand, but the real reason should be that Elemental Goddess Rafferty didn’t resist. This was absolutely abnormal. There must be a special reason.
As they looked at each other, the 2 must have exchanged many things that outsiders couldn’t know. Due to the angle, Chen Rui couldn’t clearly sense the state of the man above his head, but he could clearly see the gaze of Goddess Rafferty on the opposite side.
Calm.
Even if he couldn’t understand that kind of communication, Chen Rui could still see that kind of calmness throughout, even in the face of annihilation.
Chen Rui had experienced a lot from crossover to the present, and he was not a clueless otaku who was ignorant of worldly emotions. This calmness itself represented a kind of relieved state of mind.
Back then, in Veronica’s eyes, he vaguely saw this kind of tranquility.
After the image of Goddess Rafferty disappeared, the man looked up at Zola in the sky as if he was pondering on something. Chen Rui had a strange feeling that the man’s eyes were actually looking at the farther sky through Zola.
While Chen Rui was wondering, he found that the Dark Shadow Cape behind him suddenly disappeared. At the same time, the big tree above his head, the light beam and the shadow of the man disappeared.
The binding light of the 6 Main Elemental Messengers also disappeared, and the 6 Main Elemental Messengers immediately regained their freedom. Their gazes all focused on him. The gazes seemed to be different from the previous hostility, but Chen Rui still had a high degree of vigilance.
Although the power of the incomplete fusion form [All Star Gods View] that he used riskily completely overwhelmed the [Cosmos Annihilation], and he even had a valuable new insight, the appearance of the phantasm just now emptied his power. Hence, his current combat power had plummeted. He was unable to launch the power of [All Star Gods View] anymore. Meanwhile, the Main Elemental Messengers were immortal existences in the elemental world. Their power was endless. In other words, Chen Rui’s current strength was simply not enough to face any Main Elemental Messenger, let alone 6, so the only way out was to escape!
Chen Rui glanced at Zola in the sky. The light cocoon beside Zola had disappeared now, but perhaps because the pair of butterfly wings had not completely disappeared, he actually still couldn’t keep her into the Star Conferring Platform. On the other hand, the 6 Main Elemental Messengers were already approaching.
Looking at the speed at which the colorful butterfly wings disappeared, it would take at least 3 minutes. For the peak stage of the Pseudo-God, these 3 minutes were enough to kill countless enemies.
When Chen Rui was fully alert, he suddenly found that the dangerous breath on the Main Elemental Messengers disappeared. They did not form the hexagram formation. Instead, they slowly floated over and stood not far from him.
“Don’t be nervous, the battle is over.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger sighed.
The rest of the Main Elemental Messengers didn’t speak, but they looked up at Zola who was still in the sky.
Now that the Main Elemental Messengers had gained the upper hand, there was no need to play any tricks. Chen Rui felt that the other party was really no longer hostile, so he slowly relaxed his tense nerves, but there was an absurd feeling in his mind. The enemies whom he fought desperately just now had inexplicably turned into spectators together.
After careful observation, Chen Rui discovered that the colorful butterfly wings on Zola’s back did not just ‘disappear’, but they converged into her body bit by bit. Finally, the process of convergence was completed. Chen Rui clearly sensed a strong force emanating from Zola’s body. At the same time, in the Super System, it could be seen that the rainbow constellation, which was already dim, shone unprecedentedly. In the galaxy, ‘Knowledge Goddess’ miracles appeared frequently in various places. The believers were all inspired.
Zola’s eyes slowly opened. Without the cover of the light cocoon, her vision became clearer. The moment she opened her eyes, Chen Rui had an illusion as if he saw the pair of eyes looking down on the common people that appeared in the clouds before. This feeling was only fleeting. Soon, her gaze returned to the one that Chen Rui was familiar with.
The first reaction of the fairy dragon waking up was to shift to Chen Rui’s side in an instant. She looked at his broken arm and hugged him tightly regardless of the Main Elemental Messengers beside them. Tears streamed from her eyes.
The moment Chen Rui’s voice woke her up, her consciousness had really awakened, but her body was out of her control later on. Although Zola did not witness the battle that broke Chen Rui’s arm before, she could guess that it was caused during the battle to save her.
Chen Rui touched the fairy dragon’s purple hair, “I’m fine, Zola. It will regenerate soon.”
The more he said this, the more Zola cried, showing her true feelings completely without her usual fake daze appearance.
“Ugh… I’m sorry to bother both of you for a while.”
It wasn’t until the Water Main Elemental Messenger’s voice sounded that Zola stopped crying. Her gaze looking at the 6 Main Elemental Messengers was full of anger and murderous look. She already had a short staff in her hand, which was made for her by Chen Rui: ‘Secret Shadow’.
Chen Rui was surprised to find that the breath on Zola’s body had actually reached the level of peak stage of the Pseudo-God.
“As I said, the battle is over. No matter what the 2 of you choose next, we want to determine what happened just now.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger’s tone was full of solemnity while the rest of the Main Elemental Messengers nodded one after another. It seemed like they agreed to let the Water Main Elemental Messenger speak on behalf of them.
Chen Rui thought for a while. He didn’t take Zola to run away immediately, but he just nodded to Zola.
The fairy dragon snorted and said in a hostile tone, “You all saw what happened just now. Your goddess has failed to wake up and has been completely annihilated.”
The Water Main Elemental Messenger was not offended, “So, may I ask, have you gained some kind of power?”
“Gained?” Zola said coldly, “From the beginning to the end, I was a victim. I was deceived by all of you to come to the elemental world and inherit the so-called Elemental Goddess Armaments. As a result, my soul was almost swallowed!”
“The Elemental Goddess Armaments now…”
“The most important artifact of the elemental world has been completely shattered now.” Zola sneered, “Do you want to use this as an excuse to let me stay and try to resurrect the elemental goddess?”
“You’re wrong.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger shook his head, “If there is no death, how can there be ‘resurrection’?”
“No death?” Chen Rui was taken aback, “The existence that was annihilated just now…”
“It was Madam Rafferty who was annihilated, but the elemental goddess… may not really be annihilated.”
Chen Rui was even more surprised, “You mean…”
The Water Main Elemental Messenger did not continue to explain, but he looked at Zola, “Actually, the Elemental Goddess Armaments are the same…”
“What?” Zola really didn’t understand this time.
“The so-called ‘Elemental Goddess Armament’ refers to the artifact infused with the will of the elemental goddess. Perhaps one day, the robe on your body will become the new Elemental Goddess Robe, and the scepter in your hand will become the new Elemental Goddess Staff.”
Zola was startled. Chen Rui finally confirmed his guess, “You mean, Zola has become the new elemental goddess?”
No wonder the Water Main Elemental Messenger said that. It turned out it was the ‘former’ goddess, Rafferty, who was annihilated just now. The elemental goddess is not really annihilated.
“I mean ‘maybe’. She is not the elemental goddess yet. Maybe one of her future paths will lead to that direction. Maybe she chooses another path. Maybe she will never succeed. In short, her current existence can be called ‘hope’ to a certain extent.”
Chen Rui quickly activated the [Analytical Eyes]. In the [Analytical Eyes], Zola’s comprehensive strength assessment no doubt became SSSS+, and her analysis attribute had an extra item, ‘Heart of God Blessing!’
Chen Rui suddenly came to his senses. Although Goddess Rafferty’s will disappeared, part of the inheritance ceremony just now had played a role. Zola should have obtained the power of a part of the Godhood fragments!
In other words, now Zola was God’s descendant!
From the words of the Water Main Elemental Messenger, it could be deduced that because Rafferty’s will collapsed, this part of Godhood should be pure power. It would not have the danger of devouring Zola’s soul, so the future choice was entirely on Zola herself.
“Is this the reason why I must continue to stay in the elemental world?” The fairy dragon asked the main point.
“You’re wrong.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger glanced at the rest of the Main Elemental Messenger, “As the successor of the elemental goddess’ Godhood fragment, you have complete freedom whether to stay or leave.”
The fairy dragon was a little surprised, and she took Chen Rui’s arm, “Then I will choose to leave with him. Do you have any objections?”
The key point of this sentence was actually ‘him’ and ‘with’. The Water Main Elemental Messenger looked deeply at Chen Rui, “It turns out we were all wrong.”
Chen Rui somewhat understood the meaning of this sentence, “You’re not the only ones who are wrong.”
“However, Madam Rafferty was eventually annihilated because of you.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger stared closely at Chen Rui, “Then…”
This sentence seemed to be tense. Zola immediately clenched Secret Shadow, ready to fight at any time.
“Thank you.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger suddenly said 2 unexpected words.
Chen Rui was greatly surprised. He suddenly thought of the last words that Moore conveyed to Lambost. When the same voice sounded in his ear, he was in a daze for a moment.
“You can leave now.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger looked at Zola, “In any case, Zola is the 7th Main Elemental Messenger after all. Even if the elemental world is completely annihilated in the future, she can more or less retain the true inheritance of elements.”
“The elemental world will annihilate?” Chen Rui frowned.
“Everything in the world is subject to birth and death, so is ‘plane’ or ‘world’.” The Water Main Elemental Messenger let out a long sigh.
There were too many queries in Chen Rui’s mind, but the other party would definitely not continue. Moreover, he didn’t want to stay in the elemental world anymore, so he nodded to Zola and keep her in the Star Conferring Platform before opening the [Star Gate].
