Global Apocalypse: Awakening the Soul-Swallowing Talent at the Beginning.

"Try to control your arm..."

Just as Kratos was puzzled, Arost's voice came from below, breaking his reverie.

"Arm?" Kratos was about to say that he seemed unable to move freely.

The next second, the instinct to obey orders triggered the arm's reaction.

A noisy clanging sound reached my ears, announcing that a rather large object had begun to move.

Soon, Kratos saw a metal arm wrapped in chains.

Its design is not particularly exquisite; in fact, it could be described as somewhat bulky.

However, it exudes a sense of brute force.

The length of his outstretched hand even exceeded the height of an adult Gobelins.

"This..." Kratos was shocked.

But before he could get any information out of him, Arost's impatient voice rang out again:

"Keep it quiet. I've added an extra set of control elements for you, so you can operate it precisely."

"I tried to remove the chains from my arms myself."

"Oh...oh..." Kratos responded, bewildered.

After some searching, he indeed sensed something else hidden inside his arm.

Shortly afterward, several laser beams suddenly shot out, melting the iron chain.

The sudden, heavy feeling caused Kratos's vision to shift again, and he uncontrollably fell to one side.

In the end, Balgon reacted quickly and steadied him, preventing him from falling to the ground.

"A hopeless idiot!"

"I'm sorry, Master..." Kratos said in shame.

At the same time, he became increasingly curious about his situation.

It seems that the 'Iron Coffin' life support system is not just about keeping him alive and allowing him to linger on.

"There's no need for apologies. The rest of your life is meant to atone for your sins." Arost put away his tools, a hint of satisfaction in his voice.

"The first generation of the 'Iron Coffin' machine was successfully put into operation. Consider it a small amount of interest that you have paid back."

"I am grateful for His Majesty's benevolence," Kratos said sincerely.

Then, with a sorrowful tone and an eagerness, she pressed on with the question:

"Arost... Your Majesty, do you want me to continue living as a mechanical life form?"

"I'm not Gobelin anymore, am I?"

“Don’t worry, you’re still Gobelin.” Arost glanced up at Kratos.

Seemingly feeling that talking like that was a bit tiring, he then leaped onto the nearby steps and said slowly:

"It's just that not much of it remains."

"Moreover, the vast majority of them have been corrupted by the power of the 'misfortune' authority and must be permanently sealed in the 'iron coffin'."

"The 'iron coffin' life support system is both your lifeline and your prison."

"It will stay with you for the rest of your long life, until you atone for the sins you have committed!"

“Or… death?” Kratos asked tentatively.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was met with Arost's disdainful mockery:

"Kratos, I treated you like a brother, but you're such a coward?"

"If you die so easily, how can you face His Majesty the Emperor, who risked his life to save you?"

"No! I will not waste the second chance His Majesty has given me!" Kratos quickly denied.

"But I still don't understand why His Majesty would make you go to such lengths to awaken my consciousness?"

"If Your Majesty only needs an experienced warrior, I can immediately think of dozens of more cost-effective alternatives..."

"His Majesty saved you, partly because of his mercy," Aros interrupted Kratos, explaining.

"The other part is because the residual power of authority within your body requires you to live."

"Your Majesty has discovered that if your will is completely destroyed by the power of the remaining authority of Xu Rangxi, then that power will completely return and become a part of Xu Rangxi's power."

"But if you live, even if you are barely clinging to life like you are now, this power will not return and will weaken Xu Rangxi to some extent."

"Weaken the Chosen Ones?" Kratos's spirits lifted, and he suddenly became incredibly motivated, as if he'd been injected with adrenaline.

"Is His Majesty preparing to launch a war to become a god, and making a final push for the throne?!"

“Go for it, my foot.” Aros rolled his eyes.

"His Majesty is preparing for the future and has no plans to ascend the throne in the short term."

"If Your Majesty were as simple-minded and reckless as you, do you think our Gobelin people could have achieved the prosperity we have today?"

"Uh, yes..." Kratos responded weakly.

“So live well, don’t die easily.” Aros reached out and tapped Kratos on the head, making a thud.

"Although your blind loyalty has caused a great disaster, it is not beyond redemption and remedy!"

"Oh, by the way, His Majesty also asked me to give you a message after you wake up."

Kratos was taken aback, and listened attentively.

Arost's expression was serious, and he said with utmost solemnity, "Remember, no sacrifice is too great to bear, and no betrayal is too small to be ignored!"

"Your actions may have been foolish, but His Majesty has seen your loyalty. Well, His Majesty only said the first part; this last part is what I added, just in case you are too simple-minded to understand the deeper meaning."

Kratos stood there stunned for a long time, feeling the emptiness surrounding him finally dispelled by a clear goal!

He nodded firmly:

"I've got it."

……

The present world.

Neptune region.

Earth.

The shrill cry of the goddess in blue echoed throughout the entire venue, shaking the hearts and minds of everyone present!

No one responded.

Only the Taotie mocked relentlessly:

"Isn't it all due to fate?"

"Then what do you rely on?"

"Was it my kind and innocent mother, Xu Rangxi, who trusted you?"

"Or is it my mercenary and ruthless father, the Eternal Heaven, who is showing you favoritism?!"

"In the end, you're nothing but a filthy bitch!"

"A vile bitch who betrayed her own sister, disregarded blood ties, and used any means necessary to climb to the throne of a goddess!!"

An invisible rage is vented between the lines, like the omnipresent raging black flames in the air.

The goddess in blue remained silent, gazing silently at the Taotie below amidst the dazzling colorful light.

Watching the opponent's six eyes burst open due to insufficient power, only to be healed by the burning black flames, only to burst open again, repeating this cycle over and over.

He suddenly became angry.

Ignorant

That's so inconsiderate!

He gave so much, both openly and secretly, but in the end, instead of receiving a word of thanks, he was even scolded!

And she keeps calling me a filthy bitch...

Ha ha,

If An Shitian, that ignorant child, were to learn the truth about what happened back then, I wonder how he would react!

With this thought in mind, the goddess in green immediately took action.

Overwhelmed by emotion, He temporarily forgot the thought of confronting Elisa.

He flung out a memory crystal, which shot towards the Taotie!
