“Sir, let's go. Please allow me to lead the way for you." Catherine had an elegant smile on her face, but her behavior was so humble and respectful, bowing slightly to Jiang Xiao.

It was clearly a noblewoman's demeanor, but she was living like a maid.

Jiang Xiao looked at the place where the spatial gate had disappeared and sighed softly.

Jiang Xiao was not in the Dragon's Lair, but rather at Hopkins' Sea Ridge Sanctuary.

Hopkins' Sea Ridge Sanctuary has been upgraded to the highest quality, so it is more appropriate to call it the "Sea Ridge World."

Jiang Xiao came in for the same reason as the previous few times.

Ever since he met Hopkins, he found it difficult to refuse Hopkins' requests.

Why?

Because Jiang Xiao still "cares."

Jiang Xiao has friends he cares about, comrades he cares about, and a country he cares about.

Currently, it is indeed difficult for Jiang Xiao to refuse any request from Hopkins.

Jiang Xiao couldn't possibly just throw all his friends into the Calamity Shadow World to protect them.

In theory, Jiang Xiao has the strength to do so, but his comrades still have their own responsibilities. After all, they are all soldiers, especially in the current global crisis, and they cannot abandon their mission or the civilians.

Hopkins handed Jiang Xiao the bodies of the last two Star Transformation members, which was considered another expression of goodwill, and then requested that Jiang Xiao enter his Sea Ridge World.

And Jiang Xiao had no ability to refuse.

Why enter the Sea Ridge World?

It's just that Hopkins is unwilling to wait any longer. In this Sea Ridge World, Hopkins seems to have prepared a lot of programs for Jiang Xiao.

Obviously, Jiang Xiao's growth is not fast enough, and Hopkins is already old and frail. He wishes that Jiang Xiao could advance successfully in the next second, carry out a second Star Transformation into a Martial Warrior, and try to explore the outside world.

Of course, Jiang Xiao never mentioned the Dragon's Lair secret that he had discovered.

This old fellow pretended to be generous and gave me Pu Pu Whale when we met. Now, he has lost the bridge to communicate with Star Beasts, right?

I won't tell him what I found!

"Sir?" Catherine asked softly, looking at the silent young man in front of her.

At this time, Catherine was acting as a guide.

Although on the surface, she seems to be a perfect servant, but in reality, she also has some small thoughts.

In fact, how could any Star Warrior at the peak of the Starry Sky Realm, especially those who are successful in the Star Transformation organization, be mediocre?

Catherine had already understood the relationship between the "Old Prophet" and the "Little Prophet." She also knew very well that the "Big and Little Prophets" were still in a cooperative stage, but one day, after the mission objective was completed, one mountain... cannot accommodate two tigers.

Catherine is willing to make investments. No matter which prophet ultimately wins or loses, she just needs to rely on the strong.

This is a very terrible thing. A first-class player in a Star Transformation organization, a Star Warrior at the peak of the Starry Sky Realm, actually has to rely on others and look at other people's faces to survive humbly...

Sometimes, Catherine's heart is also crying.

Why... did you let me wade into this muddy water!?

Wouldn't it be better to be a top-level mage who is admired, respected, and even feared by everyone? To be willful and do whatever I want... I am clearly a king, but I have to be a servant here...

Why did you let me meet these two terrifying Star Warriors!? Why is this happening...

Catherine restrained the emotions surging in her heart, her smile was still elegant, and she softly probed, "Sir?"

Catherine: "When you arrested the Star Transformation couple, especially Elizabeth, did you get a map?"

"Yes." Jiang Xiao frowned slightly and nodded.

Catherine: "That map marked six locations, which are the places you need to go."

Jiang Xiao said silently, "What do you mean?"

Catherine said apologetically, "I'm sorry, sir, I don't know. I'm just here to take care of your daily life."

Jiang Xiao grinned, waved his hand, and a spatial gate opened.

Behind the door, a hand reached out and handed a map to Jiang Xiao.

This map was the one Elizabeth had in her arms during the final battle between Jiang Xiao and others and the Star Transformation Leader.

At that time, Elizabeth made it clear that this map was left by the Prophet, and whoever won would get it.

Afterwards, the Star Transformation couple was captured, and Xiao Chongyang also searched out this map from Elizabeth's arms, but Jiang Xiao didn't understand the specific location of this map.

But unexpectedly, it turned out that... this map depicted Hopkins' Sea Ridge World.

"Do I look like I can't take care of myself?" Jiang Xiao said casually, and unfolded the map, looking at it again.

On the map, there was a clear red line, all the way from south to north, crossing mountains and rivers, and finally falling into a big mountain.

And above this line, there were 6 specially marked red "x"s, which seemed to symbolize something.

"No, sir, I have prepared many unexpected things for you, which can relieve your mind and improve the quality of your life during your arduous task." Catherine smiled very confidently.

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao laughed and said, "What, did your little dwarf band learn 'Good Day'?

Is it the kind where today is a good day, and everything you want will come true?"

Catherine: "......"

Suddenly, for a moment, Catherine knew where the gap between herself and Jiang Xiao was!

This mentality is so good, it's really ghostly...

Is there really no sense of frustration at all?

Catherine said softly: "You're joking, sir."

"Well, don't do those fancy things anymore. The last song was too evil, and it made me feel upset." Saying that, Jiang Xiao handed the map to Catherine and said, "Where is the location?"

Catherine nodded and said, "I only know the approximate location, on the Apennine Peninsula."

"Oh?" Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, took back the map, looked at it, and said, "So, this mountain range is the Alps?"

This broken map, why don't you draw a little more to the southeast, and include the "boot heel" so I can see where it is? It's useless to only draw a boot shaft...

"Yes, sir." Catherine nodded hurriedly.

"Yeah." Jiang Xiao flashed and came directly to the Apennine Peninsula.

The two stood in the high altitude, and they all put on the Soul of the Sea Eater.

Jiang Xiao held the map and looked at the terrain below.

Aside, according to the first bright red "x", Jiang Xiao flew slowly in the high altitude, looking at the endless mountains and forests below.

From time to time, you can still see some pale figures wandering in the forest.

It looks like the Dark Burial Forest creatures of the Apennine Island country, a group of low-quality skeletons.

However, in the lower dimension, the Dark Burial Skeleton clan is of Silver quality, and the Star Technique effect is also ridiculously low. The Star Technique effect is not strong, and it is rarely useful, but this group of Dark Burial Skeletons thrown in by Hopkins may be of different quality in other planets, and there may be Gold or Platinum existences.

Of course, Jiang Xiao was not interested in competing with this group of skeletons. As he flew, the trees below became denser and denser, and the pale figures in the forest gradually disappeared.

A few minutes later, Jiang Xiao could no longer see the ground situation in the high altitude, so he brought Catherine down.

"It seems that our mission is going smoothly." Catherine said.

Jiang Xiao: "Hmm?"

Catherine: "The Prophet's Sea Ridge World has Star Beast groups in various regions. In this deep forest, I didn't find any creatures around. This is very special, isn't it?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Xiao nodded. Surrounded by giant trees, two small humans broke in. The dense leaves covered the sky and the sun, and only a small amount of sunlight could penetrate, making this forest extremely dark.

It should have been an extremely dangerous place, but it became particularly safe because there were no Star Beasts entrenched there. Is it an evil sign?

"Sir, I found it." During the march, Catherine suddenly said.

"Where?" Jiang Xiao asked.

Catherine: "Right in front, that seems to be a wooden house."

Saying that, Catherine suddenly raised her hand, and a huge holy light fell down, completely illuminating this slightly dim deep forest.

Platinum - Light of Heaven!

The huge holy light did not just fall in the distance, but quickly moved forward horizontally.

Speaking of which, it is also interesting. When Jiang Xiao fought with Plato and Catherine's team, Jiang Xiao shot down their teammate, the Blood Bat, with a Withered Arrow, and Catherine just watched her teammate gradually wither, without moving.

The Blood Bat struggled little by little in extreme pain and despair.

Until the moment of death, the teammate who begged and squeaked at Catherine failed to beg for Catherine's healing Star Technique.

She didn't even bother to move a finger.

But now, she is using this healing Star Technique to provide lighting for Jiang Xiao...

Damn it, being her teammate is really unlucky!

Catherine who never helps her teammates?

My healing Star Technique is not for saving teammates, but for lighting up Mr. Jiang Xiao!?

While thinking, Jiang Xiao, who had passed through a forest, felt that the surrounding environment was getting brighter and brighter, and also saw a slightly dilapidated wooden house in a huge open space.

The environment here is very interesting.

Why is the forest dark? Because the huge trees are lush and cover the sunlight.

And why is it bright here?

Because there are no trees around the area of the wooden house, and the branches and leaves extending from the surrounding trees directly above the wooden house have also been cleaned.

It's like a skylight has been opened, and it's more like a spotlight on the stage. The sunlight falls from the sky and falls on the area of the wooden house.

What does it mean?

Do you still think you are not conspicuous enough? Did you specially put a light on your cabin?

Well, the stage effect is not bad...

While Jiang Xiao was thinking, a person came out from behind the wooden door.

A giant with messy and disheveled hair and a scruffy beard...

"You're here." The man, who was at least two meters tall, spoke with an old voice, and his face was full of wrinkles. It seemed that he was very old.

Jiang Xiao raised the map in his hand and said, "I'm here, but I don't know what to do."

"Hehe." The old man with a big beard laughed and said, "Just be killed by me, it's that simple."

Jiang Xiao grinned and said, "Who are you? You're very arrogant?"

The old man waved his hand, and a huge battle axe appeared from his palm.

Damn...

Jiang Xiao was startled!

This axe has obviously exceeded the scope of people's cognition!

The huge double-sided axe is shaped like a "bow tie", and the left and right axe blades are incredibly wide, and it is no problem for 5 or 6 people to stand on it at the same time!

In contrast to this giant two-handed axe, the giant who is more than two meters tall instantly becomes a little guy.

"Forty years ago, you would have died." The old man smashed the double-sided axe on the ground, looked directly at Jiang Xiao, and said, "Give you a chance to leave a last word. After you die, I will allow your servant to bring your last word back to your hometown."

"Ah..." Aside, Catherine suddenly let out a soft cry, but also hurriedly covered her mouth with one hand.

From the moment the old man came out, Catherine's eyes were a little confused. She always felt that she had seen this guy somewhere, somewhere...

In a flash of inspiration, Catherine finally remembered why she was so familiar with this old man!

As a member of the Star Transformation, she prays devoutly in the Pantheon every day!

Although the object of kneeling has always been the Prophet - Hopkins, the other gods in the Pantheon are also worshiped by Star Transformation Martial Warriors every day!

This old man... isn't this old man... the squad member of the Prophet when he conquered the European continent back then, the Great Shield Warrior codenamed Sparta?

The old man frowned slightly, looked at Catherine, and said, "You recognized me."

Catherine bowed slightly, saluted, but did not respond, just silently retreated.

Jiang Xiao turned to look at Catherine and said, "Who is he?"

Catherine then responded, "The Prophet's teammate, one of the gods who conquered the Alien Planet - the European continent, the Shield Warrior - Sparta."

"Uh?" Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, turned his eyes and looked at the old man's image, compared it with the statues under the sea, and remembered that there was a statue holding a double-sided axe.

However, the double-sided axe held by that statue is of normal size.

Jiang Xiao smacked his lips and said, "You're still alive?

You're so old, listen to my advice!

Be obedient~ turn around, open the door, go into the house, and go home to walk your bird. Don't come out and try to blackmail me."

Although Sparta couldn't understand Jiang Xiao's words very well, Jiang Xiao's attitude had already shown everything. How could it be anything good?

Sparta's eyes turned cold, and his face was gloomy: "Young man, don't be too arrogant!"

Jiang Xiao tilted his head and looked at the old man and said, "If you're not arrogant, then what's the point of being young?"

Sparta suddenly picked up the giant double-sided axe with one hand: "I will use your flesh and blood to fill my yard."

And Jiang Xiao took out a blood-colored giant blade from his chest and pointed it at Sparta from afar.

In the next moment, the giant blade surrounded by blood mist in Jiang Xiao's hand began to constantly change color and shape from the handle he was holding.

The dark red giant blade turned into a scorched earth color inch by inch, gray and red, and cracked lines instantly covered the entire giant blade!

Jiang Xiao grinned: "Try it?"

I have never been a god.

But I have a nickname: God Ender!

Don't call yourself a god in front of me!

I'll kill one when I see one!
