Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 297 King, Worm

The black hand did not even pause the moment it lost its target. It suddenly changed direction and grabbed towards the position where the White King flashed.

Inside the black egg, no breath can hide under the void, except the void itself.

"Declare war with you? Humph, how can you be so confident? Look at the creatures on this land under your feet. We never thought they would be so weak!"

In addition to anger, there is also a hint of loneliness deep within the words of the Void God.

Although both sides suffered heavy losses in the war between gods that year, all ethnic groups suffered severe blows and the number of survivors dropped sharply, but they did not reach the point of extinction after all.

So it is with the light, and so it is with the shadow.

But now?

The moth clan was still alive and well in the world, but the void clan had disappeared without a trace. Only a few of them were hiding in obscure places, and they couldn't show up for various reasons. How could he not be angry? !

The foundation accumulated over countless years was completely destroyed by an intruder. This is an insult!

It is a great disrespect to the ancient gods!

The extreme anger caused the black hand to swell again, and it smashed down towards the White King with the force of covering the heaven and earth. In comparison, the latter's body was like the gravel next to the boulder, and the former could easily crush it without much effort.

The expression of Bai Wang at this moment was so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of it. He could not have imagined that the God of Void would be so stubborn and would attack him even when there was a possibility of breaking the seal.

What a reckless man!

A white ring suddenly appeared above him, with patterns forming. A huge amount of soul power was constantly compressed in it. It was released the moment the patterns appeared, and all of it bombarded the black palm that was about to press down.

Countless black and white particles burst out and scattered like fireworks from the center of the collision. Looking at the center of the black palm, a large dent suddenly appeared, which was shocking. However, the attack of the ring did not make it give up the trend of pressing down. After a brief pause, it covered it up again.

The white light flashed once more, and also transformed into a giant hand that moved towards the black palm, intending to completely stop it and disperse it in front of it.

The battle between the two gods at this moment seemed like a wrestling between two mortal insects, simple and unpretentious.

The White King frowned, and the white palm transformed by soul power began to dissipate into light particles at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was then subtly wrapped and absorbed by the aura emitted by the black palm.

Devouring souls is what the Void is best at.

He had realized this a long time ago. His attacks might not be able to threaten the Void God at all. Moreover, it was not only the spells that were consuming his divine power, but even the void matter lingering around him was absorbing his power unconsciously. As one was gaining while the other was losing, and his condition had not recovered at all, defeat was the inevitable outcome of this battle.

At the moment when Bai Zhang was about to disappear, a tide of green light suddenly surged in front of Bai Wang. The vitality in the green light continued to fight against the deathly silence in the black air. Even though the aura was not as strong as the former, it was unexpectedly effective.

Wu En had already exhausted all her strength at this point. She had to guard the seal while assisting the White King at the same time, which put her under unprecedented pressure. What made her even more powerless was that the power of the black palm seemed to be endless. After a few breaths, even she could not hold on.

After all, it was two against one, so how come they were at a disadvantage after just one encounter?

The Void God's gaze shifted and fell on Wuen, who suddenly felt a chill on his back and his pupils were gradually filled with darkness.

"If I remember correctly, you are new gods born under the light. You have been blessed by the light but you have joined forces with outsiders to rebel against the light. As gods, you are as ignorant as ordinary people!"

"You should share the same crime as him!"

The moment the words fell, the giant black palm changed direction and grabbed straight towards Wuen. The latter was shocked and looked fearful.

Of course, she knew who the Void God was referring to in his last words, and she also knew that there was no possibility that He would hold back.

A sky-high green light suddenly burst out from her body. Wu En was shaking violently, ruthlessly squeezing out every bit of her divine power. Her body was like a withered flower, gradually losing its original color and wilting.

She no longer looked at Black Palm or the Void God, but locked her eyes on the White King.

She didn't say anything, but the latter understood what she wanted to say.

1. Drive away the Void God and protect the seal.

Second, break the seal and retain the power.

The situation was urgent, and the Void God had almost no time to think. If he delayed until Wuen was defeated, he would not gain any advantage. Looking back, the White King made up his mind.

Is this a choice?

To a god it certainly is, but to a king it is quite the opposite.

"If the cocoon is still there, maybe there is still enough energy to resist..."

Wyrm shook his head. His strength was no longer able to support this kingdom. Even if he took action by force, it would only cut off the last hope of Holy Nest.

Without a king, there is no kingdom.

But if that's the case, then you want me to hand over this land to him, on which he has poured all his efforts. That's wishful thinking!

Worm raised his hand, his palm facing the depths of the eggshell - the secret room with a closed stone door.

boom--!

Bang, bang, bang——!

The sounds of chains breaking rang out one after another, echoing in the eggshell through the stone door. Under the huge noise, a slight sound of bone cracking was covered up and dissipated.

"Urn, go!"

Worm clapped his hands on the ground, and a huge teleportation array suddenly appeared under their feet.

The Void God snorted coldly, raised his head slightly, and his giant black palm suddenly exploded, falling downwards like a poisonous snake, devouring the entire teleportation array.

Although the black egg is filled with void matter, it is also filled with the seals of the White King. If he insists on leaving, the Void God cannot force him to stay.

There was a flash of white light, and the figures of Unn and Worm disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, and silence returned to the eggshell.

"Destroy both the good and the bad? Such a clumsy trick, naive and stupid."

The God of the Void walked towards the depths step by step at a leisurely pace.

He closed his eyes, carefully feeling the long-lost breath in the air, fragile yet tenacious, like a new sprout trying to push away the huge rock pressing down on his head.

Tick...tick...tick...

The short figure did not stop in front of the stone door, but went straight through it and appeared in the stone chamber.

The place was in a mess, with broken pieces of chains scattered everywhere. In the center of the stone chamber, there was a hunched figure, holding the bone nails tightly in his hands, as if enduring great pain.

"Brother...Brother?"

It seemed to sense something and slowly raised its head, but suddenly froze in place.

At this moment, the Void God was only a finger's length away from Bai's face.

"Child, the void will give you strength."

The ancient god whispered, and Bai's pair of eyes glowing orange began to tremble violently, and strands of black silk gradually climbed up from the bottom of his eyes.

In an instant, a scream was heard!
