Vrmmo: Passing Of The Sword - Chapter 125

“Hahaha!!! Hahaha”

The Golden Rocs laughter started out very loud, but it got softer and softer

It felt like

He was crying instead

The blue fire and swords were still wreaking havoc in the fortress. The remaining demons were still crying, screaming, and helpless

The fortress was quickly crumbling.

Arrow towers, forts, demonic formation

They were being destroyed. There were no longer any strong demons that could protect the fortress anymore. Even a few ordinary imprisonment spells were enough to send this fortress to its doom at this point. Everything was about to begone!

Without anyone strong guarding the place, the fortress to the Golden Roc was just like the Newbie Village to Old Man Fang easily exterminable.

However, this fortress was supposed to be a powerful and indestructible fortress!

“HahahaLittle Four, Red Hair, White Feathers, Old Green”

The Golden Roc was laughing and sobbing at the same time. He was saying names by one by one above the fortress

“Our King, hes safely rebirthed. Ive not let you guys down”

A sorrowful voice continued to speak above the Terror Fortress

“Its a pityI cant drag another Demon God down with me.”

“However, Ive already exterminated the Terror Fortress and killed Valefor. At leastIve made some amends”

The Golden Roc slowly spoke. His body was gradually getting old and his golden feathers were starting to lose its color. They were evenfalling off.

His life was dwindling

Blue Maple was watching everything from behind the black hole. He wasnt moved at all.

Similarly, the Black Eagle didnt react emotionally. The Black Eagle only stared at the Golden Roc as he slowly died

Blue Maple glanced at the Black Eagle. He didnt appear to be surprised by the reaction. He retracted his gaze and turned to look at the Golden Roc again.

Coincidentally, the Golden Roc also looked over at the Black Eagle.

“Theyve managed to sense whatever thats going on here. But dont worry. They cant lock on your position.”

The Golden Rocs gentle voice sounded very old by now. It felt as ifhe was smiling.

“My life is almost gone. From now on, you must live with this human and becomestrong!”

His gentle voice made him seem amiable. Howeverthis wasnt a joyous moment

“Great, this is great. Dont be sadbecause this is supposed to be joyous!”

The Golden Roc was comforted by the Black Eagles composure. He knew

That their King had truly reborn!

At the same time, he turned his attention towards Blue Maple.

“Kid, I dont know what youve been through or what youre currently going through. However, I hope that you can take good care of our King. Both of you are partners now, although you are bound by the equal contract.”

“However, I believe that both of you will get along just well. Although what youre going through is different from our King, itit still feels similar”

As he spoke until here, the Golden Roc wasnt the only one staring at Blue Maple. The Black Eagle also twisted his head and looked at Blue Maple with a confused expression.

“Perhaps.”

Blue Maple replied very casually. He was back to his normal state. He was as indifferent as he was normally

“Hehedoesnt matter. Its good so long both of you can get along well. As for now”

The Golden Roc suavely said. He then turned to look at the battered Terror Fortress.

“Its time to light the final flame to mark the rebirth of our new King!”

“My life is almost reaching its end, but my body can still go for my last hurrah!”

After he finished speaking, the Golden Roc flew directly above the fortress. He was glowing completely golden right now!

A terrifying aura started to brew from the Golden Rocs body. He wasready to blow himself apart!

At this final moment, he had no intention of leaving anything better. He was just trying to conjure as much strength as possible to inflict even more damage to the fortress!

He wanted to rid the fortress completely of everything, even its foundation!

“Hee!!!”

He let out a stirring cry and started to vibrate above the Terror Fortress.

Blue Maple wasnt the only one who heard his cry. Many of the powerful humans, including Old Man Fang and Old Man Wen, could hear him too.

The strong Demons were also able to sense his emotions from his long cry.

Sorrow, hatred, delight, grief, relief, and satisfaction were some of the emotions contained within

“Boom!!!”

A tremendous explosion took place, and the booming noises reverberated around the entire place. A giant mushroom cloud rose above the fortress

A fortress not guarded by any powerful individuals was just an ordinary structure. It could be easily destroyed. It couldnt even handle the shockwaves of an explosion

Everything was turned to dust

Blue Maple and the Black Eagle saw a brutal, golden energy storm from behind the black hole. The golden lights were blinding

After a long while

The energy storm started to dissipate, and the booming noises faded away. The vision from the black hole also started to become blurry.

Finally, Blue Maple and the Black Eagle only saw a huge depression that stretched for thousands of meters. They appeared to have caught a glimpse of a blurry, golden figure smiling at them

As for them, they slowly descended from the sky and returned to the Elven Forest

At Old Man Wens side.

“Ding!”

Old Man Wen and the Despair Demon God ceased fighting. They separated from each other and just stared at each other.

They appeared to be rather rattled. They were hurt. However, the Despair Demon God seemed to be in a worse state. One of his arms was just drooping by his side.

“Despair, do you still want to go over?”

Old Man Wens voice was a little hoarse. He was holding daggers in both hands as he asked the Despair Demon God.

“Hmph! Looming Shadow, I wont forget! Ill take revenge!”

The Despair Demon Gods sonorous voice echoed in void space. His body also slowly disappeared.

Old Man Wen turned towards the Terror Fortress seeing that the Despair Demon God had left. He seemed a littleregretful.

He slightly shook his head and turned it in the other direction.

“This Old Gangster is really”

Old Man Wen furrowed his brow as he sensed the situation at Old Man Fangs side. He was speechless.

Old Man Fang was playing a game of chess with Belial. More accurately speaking, Old Man Fang was teaching him

“Eh~this isnt right. It should be this. You should make this move.”

Old Man Fang was excitedly teaching Belial how to play chess. He was very relaxed, as opposed to Old Man Wen.

“*%#&”

Belial was feeling a little dizzy. He wasnt stupid. Old Man Fangs teaching was simplyall over the place!

“Eh? Its over at your side? Do you want to come over and play chess? Idle is so stupid. He doesnt know shit!”

Old Man Fang sensed Old Man Wen and turned to speak to void space.

Teach my ass! What are you teaching?!

Belial cursed to himself. But he wasnt doing nothing

“Scram! You can play by yourself!”

Seeing that Old Man Fang was so relaxed but he had been fighting the Despair Demon God for half a day, Old Man Wen was still infuriated that he almost went over to fight Old Man Fang.

“By myself?”

Old Man Fang was puzzled as he asked. He also turned his head towards Belial.

He discoveredthat Belial had long slipped away.

“Jeez, thats too sneaky. Where are you?”

He would be doomed if Old Man Wen came over.

While it wasnt a certainty since the Despair Demon God wasnt far away, he wouldnt be able to escape unscathed.

Old Man Fang appeared very nonchalant towards the Golden Rocs sacrifice. Only heaven knew what he was thinking

Just as everything ended, an announcement from the system came!

Ding! Announcement: The pillar of the Spirit Birds The Golden Roc King, has sacrificed his life for the birth of their new king. He destroyed the Terror Fortress, one of the Twelve Fortresses of the Demons. He also killed Valefor, the Bandit Demon God. He sacrificed his life to kill many demons!

His actions have triggered the Demons. A war will ensue very soon. However, it will be a war between NPCs. But it wont be a full-blown war. If any players want to join in, you can choose to pick up a quest and join this war. The rewards will be handsome. However, the death rate will also be very high. Please think carefully before joining.

Now, the game will initiate the Rank 2 Main City System early. All players can teleport to a city apart from a Rank 1 Main City through Rank 2 and 3 Main Cities. Players can also choose to pick up the quest at a Mercenary Union and complete the quest at a border city.

At the same time, it must be noted that since this is happening early, players are suggested to claim the rewards after their third class advancement!

The announcement was repeated thrice. All the players were excited!

Only a game with a challenge was fit to be called a game!

However

Some players were an exception. For example, Blue Maple was one of them.

Blue Maple and the Black Eagle just landed from the sky. They were now on the ground.

Perhaps the Golden Roc intentionally arranged this before he died. They were exactly where Blue Maple first encountered the Multicolored Cheetah King. The burn marks left behind by the Heavenly Fire were still there.

Everything was charred within a region spanning ten square meters.

“Kacha”

Crisp sounds were heard as both of them landed on the burned branches.

The Black Eagle naturally landed on Blue Maples shoulders. Blue Maple wasnt very used to it.

Just as Blue Maple furrowed his brow, he heard an announcement.

Ding! Announcement: Please give a name to your partner. Once a name has been given, it cannot be changed. Please ponder over it carefully.

Blue Maple twisted his head to look at the Black Eagle as he heard the announcement. He realized that the Black Eagle was staring straight back at him, as if he was waiting for Blue Maple to come up with a name.

SeriouslyI have to do this tooBlue Maple was speechless as he thought to himself. He discovered that the Golden Roc King gave him the responsibility of naming the Black Eagle. He wondered if it was intentional or not.

Blue Maple looked at the Black Eagle before glancing at the burned trees. Everything was the result of his fury and killing intent

If thats the case

Blue Maple muttered to himself. Then, he slightly raised his head.

“I shall call you”

He peered into the sky and slowly said.

“Feather.”

The Black Eagle realized Blue Maple seemed to be a little strange as he stared at him. However, he was still rather pleased with the name.

Ding! Announcement: Your partner has agreed to the name. Hell be called Feather from now on.

There was a strange look in Blue Maples eyes when he heard this announcement

PartnerFeather?

He was slightly confused as he thought to himself. He brought Feather as they ventured further into the forest.

Blue Maples trajectory in the game appeared to have taken a turn

No, itd taken a turn much earlier, but

When did it begin?

The change was subtle
