Chapter 590 588: The Tragic Holy Tree Star, Iris’s Awakening!

Today, Golden Fire is looking at the students, believers, subordinates, and confidants that he has brought up over the years!
They were contaminated by the power of nightmare in front of them, but they could do nothing about it.

At this moment, Golden Fire's spirit was on the verge of collapse.

Because this pollution does not come from anywhere else, but from the beliefs they have been pursuing for thousands of years.

It can be seen that the goddess statue that has been worshipped throughout the Ministry of Faith is now completely covered by the distorted black nightmare power.

The clergy who performed the interpretation and sacrifice four weeks ago now have a series of inhuman organs growing out of their bodies, including various twisted tentacles, claws, and shells.

They have now lost their minds and are killing each other like madmen. At the same time, they are vomiting large amounts of nightmare power everywhere like a group of wild beasts, polluting the surroundings.

The original duty of the Golden Fire was to use its own belief system to cover the entire planet and prevent the opponent's nightmare power from taking the opportunity to enter the interior of the planet.

However, when they confidently channeled the power of the goddess, they discovered that the goddess was actually part of this nightmare force.

With a large number of clergymen on the planet being corrupted and mentally collapsed, the entire Holy Tree Planet has now fallen into a completely chaotic doomsday scene.

Those Molten Spiders and Cinder Giants who had helped them conquer countless planets and protected them for many years!
Now they have all turned into demons that are slaughtering them.

Countless people's faith in the goddess collapsed instantly at this moment.

At this moment, Golden Fire knelt weakly on the ground, his face pale. The vigor and vitality he had in the past were no longer there, and now he looked like a decrepit old man.

Now, those responsible for his security are a group of players who are responsible for security in the entire Black Sun Group’s internal system.

They have now become the last line of defense against those nightmare monsters.

A large number of players guarded several important passages, protecting the safety of the entire command room.

At this time, the situation inside the command room was not optimistic.

Around the golden fire, there were a large number of members with pale faces and twitching bodies.

These people were once the backbone of the Black Sun Group, and their job levels were generally above L50.

At this moment, they have lost their usual powerful strength, and the gift of the Black Ash Goddess has become a curse to them.

The Golden Fire, kneeling on the ground, had a pale face and kept chanting some special spells, trying to release golden rays of light in an attempt to calm their inner restlessness.

However, all these actions were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot and had almost no effect.

As these people's bodies continued to struggle and twitch, the nightmare-like black power gradually seeped out of their bodies.

At this time, a young supervisor of the L61 Sacrifice Department struggled to get up, knelt on the ground with a pale face, and whispered:
"My dear teacher, please don't blame yourself! Please don't give up hope!"

"From the time we were born till now, we have never done anything to make the goddess feel guilty."

"We have fulfilled our piety and loyalty."

"It is not our fault that this has happened. It is our faith that has betrayed us!"

"Teacher! You are not responsible for this at all! Our future is not hopeless!"

"The great expedition warmaster still exists, and the great mother goddess has been protecting us."

When Golden Fire heard this, his wrinkled face was filled with sorrow. He looked up at the young talent, suppressed the sadness and powerlessness in his tone, and said:

"Lyle, please gather your mind as quickly as possible and resist the temptation of those nightmare blades."

"Don't give up hope! As you just said, the Warmaster is still here!"

"We can fully commit to our new faith, please hold on!"

After hearing this, the young talent named Lyle smiled softly and said, "Teacher, please don't waste your precious mental energy on a useless student like me."

"I have sensed that my sanity is coming to an end, and the whispers of those nightmares, like the abyss, have penetrated into the depths of my soul."

As he spoke, two streams of dark saliva flowed from Lyle's mouth, and the left side of his face gradually swelled up.

"Teacher, I can no longer resist their temptation."

"Teacher...it's the students who are not good enough in their studies."

"May you find eternal peace under the glory of the Warmaster."

After saying that, Lyle took out the power sword and stabbed his own head.

The powerful decomposition magnetic field flowed along his head, even directly smashing his neck and chest into a pulp.

However, even so, the nightmare forces that continued to burst out of his body were still trying to restore his body, trying to make this body into its own weapon.

"Hey……"

Accompanied by a deep, weak whine full of pain and despair, the Golden Fire seemed to have aged by a dozen years.

Lyle was his most outstanding student in the past 40 years.

And in the battle just now, he had lost 15 such students.

"Great Mother Goddess! Please have mercy on your believers! Save us from this painful nightmare!"

"The goddess of old has fallen!"

"I am willing to give everything I have. I want to be your weapon, your sacrifice, your food, and your fuel!"

"As long as we can completely destroy the fallen goddess of the old days and take back the sacred authority of the Fire of Light, we believers are willing to give up everything we have!"

At this moment, Golden Fire had no way to deal with this situation and could only pray in his heart while sticking to his own thoughts.

Because at the scene, he was the one who received the most blessings from the goddess.

Now, the erosion of the power of the abyss on him is naturally the most powerful.

Fortunately, Golden Fire is no ordinary man. His willpower far exceeds that of ordinary people and he can stabilize his spirit, even though he can no longer use the powers contaminated by nightmares.

But those twisted erosions could not shake his original intention.

However, this strong willpower can only prevent oneself from falling into depravity.

"Commander-in-chief, as you have just seen, the interior of the Holy Tree has lost all its power to resist."

"Except for the small number of human pioneers who remain here, our core deployment has now been wiped out."

Yan Yu, who was far away on the planet, looked extremely ugly at this moment.

He didn't expect the other party to move so quickly.

As for the true situation of the Black Ash Goddess, they had already known the whole story through Iris's narration a few years ago.

In the past five or six years, the entire Black Sun Group has been secretly planning to get rid of the influence of the Black Ashes Goddess and related blessings as soon as possible.

However, although the idea is good, the reality is very cruel.

The entire Black Sun Group has existed for 5000 years under the influence of the Black Ash Goddess.

Everything the Goddess has bestowed has completely permeated every aspect of this organization.

It can range from a small gift from a company's management to a large one, such as the defense of an entire planet, the command system of a battleship, or even long-distance interstellar communication.

Although they have now received the protection and support of the Empire of Light and have established another backup system, all of this has already penetrated into everyone's bones, and the middle and lower-level personnel and ordinary people are completely unable to accept the fact that the goddess has fallen.

This matter cannot be announced directly, because once it is announced, it will definitely cause large-scale turmoil within the entire group.

At that time, it will directly affect the stability within the Shanhe Star Region.

So over the past six years, they have been carefully and secretly carrying out relevant reforms and divestitures.

But the time is too short. It is simply a fantasy to want to remove more than 5 years of sediment in 5000 years.

Today on the Holy Tree Star, only a small number of core commanders and cadres have completed the stripping and are able to ignore the nightmare pollution of the Black Ashes Goddess.

All the remaining people have continued to use the power of the Black Ash Goddess for defense and combat over the years.

The group is simply unable to reshape these relevant armed personnel and combatants.

Not to mention the enormous cost, hasty transformation and conversion of beliefs can easily lead them to extremes.

More importantly, this transformation will greatly weaken the overall combat capability of the Black Sun Group today.

As the Bright Empire is not yet firmly established, the Black Sun Group plays a vital role in the battle sequence of the Shanhe Star Region.

If they want to get rid of the gift of the Black Ashes Goddess in this way, it will undoubtedly greatly weaken the combat effectiveness of the Black Sun Group.

What's even more deadly is that if they rashly take drastic actions and attract the attention of the Black Ashes Goddess, the other party can completely uphold the principle of "If I can't get it, you can't get it either", and detonate all the believers in advance, turning them into puppets of nightmares.

This situation where the initiative is completely in the hands of the other party's superior has put the matter into a dead end.

Even the solution given by Sui was only to stabilize the situation temporarily and delay it to see if a better way could be found.

Sui's plan was naturally to hope that Iris could resolve the matter.

But it is obvious that the Redstone Empire does not want to give the Light Empire enough time.

This directly led to the tragedy of the Holy Tree Star today.

Yanyu looked at the manure pit beside him and asked expectantly, "Doesn't the expedition commander have any good ideas?"

"Are we just going to watch the Holy Tree Planet fall?"

Yanyu has received the news that 108 is supporting Rhodes Star. At the same time, he has also seen from the relevant images the extraordinary combat capability and infinite divine power of 108.

In the eyes of these people, as long as another of the Ten Saint Pioneers arrives, the current desperate situation can be reversed.

At least the Ten Saints can directly curb external attacks, allowing them to concentrate their current forces to deal with internal problems.

Fenkeng Power Generation said in embarrassment: "The Bright Empire is currently short of manpower."

"Boss 108 did support Rhodes Star."

"But the situation on Diamond Star is also very critical. Boss Mountain Dog has already gone to Diamond Star."

"I have sent a message to my godfather to see if I can request a special reinforcement force, but he has not responded yet."

After hearing this, Yan Yu felt deeply depressed.

Because he knew very well that the current situation of the Empire of Light was not optimistic. The other party could now launch such a firm and swift attack with such confidence, which must have been due to precise deployment and calculations.

Even if the Empire of Light cannot send reinforcements, 108, who has suddenly returned as a god, has disrupted the opponent's deployment.

After a few seconds of silence, Yanyu took a deep breath and said, "I understand, power generation commander."

"Then please take all your human pioneers and return to the interior of the Holy Tree Planet immediately."

"Now only your subordinates can resist the contamination of those nightmare forces and cause effective damage to them."

"I will lead the remaining company troops to fight a bloody battle again!"

"Even if all of us die here, I hope we can buy enough time for you!"

Hearing this, Fenkeng Dianfa naturally knew that this was a desperate arrangement to prepare for death, because he knew very well how crazy and fierce the opponent's attack was.

"Are you sure? If this is the arrangement, you will definitely die."

Yanyu looked forward: "I know."

"But just as Rhodes Star and New Diamond Star have special meanings to you."

"The Sacred Tree Star has been our home and faith for thousands of years."

"As long as we are still alive, we will never tolerate the fall of our hometown."

Hearing this, Fenkengdian nodded: "I understand!"

Just as the manure pit generator was about to give the order, Su Yi's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"There is no need to divide the troops. You are still responsible for defending the front line. I have sent another force to reinforce you."

"You don't need to worry about the situation inside the planet. I have arranged for professionals to handle it."

Hearing this, Fenkeng Fadian was immediately very excited: "Understood! Godfather!"

Turning around, Fenkeng Fadian immediately told the news he had received to Yanyu, who was ready to perish together with him.

"Commander Yanyu! Don't be impulsive! My foster father just sent me a message! Reinforcements are on the way now!"

"I told you! Our great godfather will never give up on us!"

Yan Yu was stunned after hearing this: "Really? You didn't lie to us!?"

Fenkeng Fadian patted his chest and said loudly: "This is what my foster father told me himself. He is definitely not lying."

As the two were talking, the observer in the distance suddenly shouted excitedly:

"Commander-in-Chief! Look! What is that!?"

Hearing this, everyone turned around and looked.

Then, a fiery red crack suddenly appeared above the Holy Tree Star.

Then, along with the appearance of a large number of roots, countless thick flames rushed out from them, forming a field of fiery red leaves and vines.

Countless leaves and vines are condensed from countless red flames.

At this moment, it was like a huge luxurious carpet spread over the sky above the Holy Tree Star.

And in the middle of these vines, an extremely solemn, beautiful and sacred goddess stood there.

She was wearing a gorgeous robe woven from countless flames.

He held a flaming scepter in his hand, his eyes were deep and solemn, and his terrifying divine power surged around like a tide!
Seeing this scene, Yan Yu and others burst into tears with excitement, and all knelt on the ground, roaring with great excitement.

"Greetings to the Great Mother Goddess!"

Elise wakes up!

And descend upon the battlefield!
