Volume 1: Chapter 167 Heroes of the Storm

　　"What is that...?"

　　The little fox-eared nun opened her eyes wide.

　　Enormous power surged from the huge black fox.

　　That energy level... has reached the level of a Herrscher.

　　No, how come an enemy of the Herrscher level suddenly appeared?

　　The previous black nun and black miko never violated the rules like this!

　　"Theresa, be careful, it almost ate me!"

　　The voice of Higyokumaru echoed in the little nun's mind.

　　Now she has merged with Theresa, but compared to the giant black fox, her power is still not as great as the other.

　　"Poor bugs."

　　The black fox grinned.

　　The tired master, the weak miko and little nun, oh, and the fox that was almost eaten by it before.

　　If it weren't for the fact that the dark power of fifty thousand years was so overwhelming that it could not completely control its body for a moment, the fox would never have been able to escape.

　　Even now——

　　The hatred that has accumulated over fifty thousand years has still not been completely digested.

　　But the power that can be controlled now is already enormous.

　　Darkness completely enveloped everything.

　　Now this is its territory!

　　No one can escape from here.

　　This is true even for the projection of the master's consciousness.

　　The outside world can no longer interfere here——

　　At least you have to have the ability to penetrate the dark realm.

　　"Haha, Master, give me your body and I can let these little bugs go."

　　The black fox looked at the little child.

　　The Overlord corrupted by emotions was given a weakness out of nowhere.

　　Previously, because of the priestess's consciousness, the power of the alien insect overlord could not be projected in.

　　Amon noticed this.

　　He hopes to accomplish his goal at the lowest possible cost.

　　"Zerg, don't agree to its request!"

　　Theresa immediately retorted.

　　"It will never deliver on its promise!"

　　The little nun could feel the deep malice.

　　"Zerg, leave me be."

　　Yae Sakura took a deep breath.

　　This incident was caused by her——

　　It should end because of her.

　　I was very lucky to see Kallen Kaslana again.

　　Previously, Kallen decided to sacrifice herself in order to help her break free from the dark will.

　　Then now it's my turn.

　　This is her space of consciousness.

　　If the miko destroys her own consciousness, can Zerg and his crew escape from here?

　　Yae Sakura made up her mind.

　　The black fox possesses a power that is totally unmatched.

　　"Zerg won't give in!"

　　Even though he was somewhat exhausted from preserving Kallen Kaslana's consciousness, Amon's dark domain also isolated the main body from replenishing the power of this consciousness projection -

　　However, the Overmind still has a way to fight against the Dark God.

　　"Humph, you are courting death."

　　Amon wields the power of darkness.

　　Various void creatures once controlled by the God of Darkness emerged one by one.

　　Void hybrids walked out of the darkness one after another.

　　This world has a power called Honkai energy, and Amon, as the former god of darkness, quickly mastered the basic use of Honkai energy.

　　However, compared to building the so-called Honkai Beast——

　　It trusts more in the terrifying creature that is a mixture of pure essence and pure body.

　　Even if the Zerg Overlord creates a huge swarm of Zerg again, it will be of no use.

　　The hybrid is far more powerful than the Zerg, and the number of hybrids that appear at this moment is also even greater.

　　"What kind of monsters are these?"

　　Theresa was shocked by the aura of those creatures.

　　How could these twisted creatures exist?

　　"Zerg, Theresa, and...Higyumaru, I will create opportunities for you later."

　　The miko tightened her grip on her weapon.

　　She was determined to die in order to create a way for her companions to survive.

　　The experience after waking up this time was very good and Yaesakura felt it was worth it.

　　She was a person from five hundred years ago.

　　Maybe it's time to return to dust.

　　"Yae Sakura, what are you going to do?"

　　Theresa had a bad feeling.

　　She doesn't want to see anyone die!

　　Kallen Kaslana had sacrificed herself before, creating an opportunity for Yae Sakura to break free from control.

　　And now Yae Sakura has to sacrifice herself to create opportunities for the little nun and Zerg.

　　"It is time for me to return to eternal sleep."

　　The miko didn't look back.

　　But her voice was full of determination.

　　I saw the world five hundred years later and met a child as cute as my sister.

　　I also met Kallen Kaslana.

　　This awakening has been worth it.

　　"wait……"

　　The little nun tried to stop her.

　　There must be a way!

　　As if sensing Theresa's determination, the cross held by Zerg glowed with warm light.

　　The pink-haired fox girl was forced out of Theresa's body.

　　"This is……"

　　Theresa was stunned.

　　The ears on her head and the shrine maiden costume on her body disappeared.

　　Golden light surrounded the little nun.

　　It seemed as if the saint who could see destiny waved to her, as if she wanted to give a gift to her descendants.

　　"This is the last bit of my strength."

　　Kallen Kaslana blinked.

　　The white-haired little nun looked very similar to her, and they both had the same determination to protect others.

　　The Holy Maiden of Destiny decided to help her descendants.

　　But if this is the case, she doesn't know when she will be able to wake up.

　　But Kallen Kaslana was content.

　　She should have disappeared.

　　Zerg saved her consciousness, so she should use this last bit of strength to make a contribution to Zerg and the others.

　　Five hundred years of longing linger in the golden light.

　　Not even fifty thousand years of hatred could extinguish this light.

　　“…”

　　The familiar power returned to the body.

　　It was different from the feeling of being possessed by Higyokumaru before—

　　Now Theresa is using the power she is most familiar with.

　　The holy cross appeared beside her.

　　The clothes on her body were replaced with a red and white dress.

　　A golden halo unfolded with the little nun as the center.

　　The sacred light isolates the invasion of darkness.

　　"The power is back!"

　　Theresa clenched her arms slightly.

　　[Celestial Hymn], this is the name of this form.

　　It is a gift from the Holy Maiden of Destiny.

　　"Dark will, I will not be afraid of you!"

　　Theresa pulled out a golden spear of light from the cross.

　　Even if the enemy is extremely powerful, she will not feel any fear.

　　“…”

　　Amon smelled a hint of danger.

　　The power possessed by a human named Theresa—

　　Seems to restrain the dark forces it uses.

　　It was as if the little fox had once been defeated by the holy light.

　　This is an idealistic consciousness space where anything can happen.

　　No, how could I fail?

　　What if the force restrains it?

　　How can the light of fireflies compare to the endless darkness?

　　"Zerg can also call someone to help!"

　　The dark forces were temporarily isolated.

　　Zerg was able to reconnect with his original body in the outside world.

　　The tired look was swept away as he was replenished with strength.

　　But it’s not enough—

　　[Zerg is determined to fight: Zerg needs help! 】

　　[Zerg determined to fight: @Happy Little Brainworm]

　　[Zerg is determined to fight: @Cockroach Bully]

　　[Zerger is determined to fight: @Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! ]

　　[Zerger is determined to fight: @Young fighter Taluah]

　　[Zerg is determined to fight: Zerg needs your strength! 】

　　The Overlord chose to directly pull people into the battlefield.

　　He needs time to connect with his original body.

　　Take the huge black fox out of Yae Sakura's consciousness space.

　　As long as they get out of here, the Zerg Overlord can easily crush the God of Darkness.

　　This is true even if it achieves enormous power.

　　The power of the Zerg Overlord is growing stronger all the time as the Zerg nest grows and the Zerg swarm expands.

　　[Happy Little Brainworm: Everything I have belongs to you, Zerg, please summon me directly. ]

　　[Young Warrior Talulah: My injuries have healed. If I can be of any help, please feel free to use me.]

　　[Cockroach Bully: Tsk, Zerg, just pull me over there, let me see who is so blind to provoke you? ]

　　Well, only one person didn't respond.

　　“…”

　　In the holy light, three figures slowly emerged.

　　The white-haired, red-eyed Agor drew her giant sword.

　　The Draco with silver hair and gray eyes ignited with flames.

　　The character with white hair and red eyes... Sarkaz held the high-energy stone bomb.

　　"Oh, a giant black fox? It's a really rare creature. I'm sure it can be sold for a good price."

　　W looked at the huge black fox without fear.

　　"W, it's not an opponent that can be underestimated."

　　A slender hand rested on her shoulder.

　　“…”

　　The Sarkaz mercenary froze.

　　This voice is very familiar——

　　It was the voice of the Demon Lord Sarkaz.

　　Why is she here?

　　The pink-haired Sarkaz Demon King emerged from W's body.

　　With the help of the power of the Sarkaz Demon King and the Queen of the Insect Swarm, Theresa was able to show up at this moment.

　　She could feel the call from Zerg before -

　　Even though it was very faint, it seemed to span a world.

　　But the devil still showed up.

　　"Theresa?"

　　Skadi was stunned.

　　Why is Theresa here?

　　As for Talulah—

　　Well, she didn't know the Demon King of the Sarkaz, so she didn't speak.

　　"Zerg, I'll buy you some time."

　　Theresa stood at the front of the team.

　　She looked at the huge black fox.

　　What descended here was not the entire Demon King, but a little bit of consciousness placed in each Sarkaz.

　　After joining the Zerg, she has become the most powerful demon king in history.

　　Every Sarkaz in Kazdel has been marked by her.

　　“…”

　　At this moment, the local Valkyrie was dumbfounded.

　　What are these four people who suddenly appeared?

　　Wait, this person's name seems familiar...

　　Theresa's expression became subtle.

　　The mysterious girl named Theresa has a temperament similar to Kallen Kaslana, as if they are the same kind of people.

　　All are equally holy, all are equally steadfast.

　　But if I remember correctly, Zerg said that Theresa was one of his friends...

　　"Isamara... come and help too..."

　　Afterwards, a figure emerged from Skadi's body.

　　This is the space of consciousness where Ishamara can appear freely without Skadi's approval.

　　“…”

　　The black fox was silent.

　　Where did the Overlord summon people from?

　　Except for a girl with white hair and red eyes who poses no threat, the other four should not be underestimated.

　　Each one has his or her own strengths.

　　Each of them has their own unique tricks!

　　W frowned, feeling inexplicably that she was being looked down upon.

　　"Can you guys protect Zerg with us?"

　　Theresa extended her hand to the little nun, the miko, and the fox girl.

　　It's an invisible race.

　　Only the fox girl was probably a Wolper.

　　It must be someone Zerg knew.

　　Because they all have the aura of Zerg.

　　"I am Theresa, the Demon King of the Sarkaz and the Queen of the Zerg."

　　Theresa introduced herself.

　　"...I agree, just call me Theresa!"

　　Time is running out and the black fox has already launched its attack.

　　The holy barrier created by the cross will not last long.

　　The little nun took the hand.

　　We’ll talk about Theresa and the others later.

　　"Yae Sakura, I will do my best."

　　The miko nodded.

　　"I, I, I... Yae Sakura, let me merge with you!"

　　Higyokumaru held it in for a long time before saying this.

　　Her individual combat power is negligible, but she can fight by combining with others.

　　The best choice is Yae Sakura——

　　The fox girl feels that she and the other party have the highest degree of compatibility.

　　After getting the miko's consent, Higyokumaru disappeared.

　　“…”

　　Theresa glanced at the ears on the miko’s head.

　　For a moment she thought it was Amiya's ear.

　　She shook his head and threw away those random thoughts.

　　In this way, a temporary swarm team is formed.

　　With the Queen of the Insect Swarm as the core and the power of the Black Crown as the medium, a psychic network was launched.

　　The thoughts of the seven girls are linked together.

　　“…”

　　Theresa frowned slightly.

　　This was her first time doing this.

　　Then when I first linked it, I seemed to have read some incredible ideas.

　　Although the Demon Girl quickly blocked the reading of other people's thoughts, she was still certain that some guys had ill intentions towards Zerg.

　　In addition to a mercenary who is already a repeat offender, there is also a more heavyweight guy.

　　Theresa glanced at the Poseidon girl from the corner of her eye.

　　Ninety-nine percent of Ishamara's mind was occupied by thoughts of mating.

　　And the object of mating...

　　The Demon Girl took a deep breath.

　　Theresa, she is a sea creature, not a land creature, so you should not bother with her too much.

　　...After this, I should talk to Skadi later.

　　Now,

　　The holy barrier was broken.

　　The creatures of darkness swarmed forward, trying to overwhelm the enemies of the Dark God.

　　The Zerg Overmind is driving psychic energy to shake the realm of darkness.

　　There is no doubt that——

　　If the Dark God is allowed to complete his actions, it is obvious that he will not have a good ending.

　　The black fox roared and joined the battle.

　　He should have wasted no time in launching the attack instead of trying to exploit the Overlord's weakness!

　　But it’s not too late to make up for this mistake now!

　　The fox ran.

　　“Stop right there.”

　　The Demon King of Sarkaz stood in front of it.
