Chapter 238, Can I Also Ascend to Become a God?

Gu Hang, who landed on the ground, was really tired.

He stopped the original angry owl from trying to escape back to his own country and get rid of the interlayer of the reality curtain. In the final madness of the evil god, Gu Hang took on a huge pressure.

If he had been upgraded before, he would not have been able to bear it.

In fact, even if he was upgraded, he could not hold on.

He could hold on for two main reasons: the original angry owl was weakened by more than one level because it was in the interlayer of the reality curtain; and Gu Hang, as a psychic, entered the real world and was closer to the source of power, and the psychic power he could use rose by more than one level.

This increase and decrease gave Gu Hang the opportunity to kill the gods in his mortal body, allowing him to create such a great feat.

But no matter what, killing the gods is always a reality. After that, he should ascend to become a god!

The original angry owl is dead, but the part of the 'essence of the real world' it represents is right in front of Gu Hang, trapped in the gap of the reality curtain by his psychic power.

Next, he can grab this ball of ‘real essence’ in his hand, swallow, digest, and merge.

From then on, he can replace it and become the new ‘Storm God’.

Ordinary mortals, of course, don’t have this opportunity. But Gu Hang is different. The real world has opened its arms to him and accepted his existence.

As long as he wants, he can.

A golden road is laid out in front of him. As long as he takes a few steps forward, he will get rid of his mortal body and become an immortal, eternal and immortal god.

This is a road like an emperor. He already has the opportunity to start. As long as he takes a few more steps forward...

...

The evil god fell and his body gradually dissipated.

The warriors saw this scene from afar.

Everyone cheered!

To be honest, seeing a monster as big as a mountain that once existed only in religious mythology become an enemy, who wouldn’t be scared?

They were not even sure whether the weapons in their hands and the terrifying artillery fire could hurt the gods.

Until now, when they saw its huge body fall, they completely lost their doubts and were sure that they had won.

Naturally, the soldiers' eyes would turn to their commander, their leader, and the Governor they admired.

Long live the Governor! The Governor... eh? Where is the Governor?

There was some commotion in the crowd.

And the Space Marines and the Sisters of Battle were more worried.

Especially the latter.

They were not ordinary mortal soldiers. They saw the Governor fall from the air after the God War.

The Phoenixes might be a little slow, but the Holy Lilies, who were more sensitive to similar situations, realized at the first time that this was a very bad sign.

Grit showed Martins a possibility that frightened the latter.

"You mean, the Governor might be defeated by the whispers of the abyss, his mind might be changed, or even enslaved by evil thoughts? This is impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Martins refuted fiercely.

Grit quickly spoke to comfort her: "It's not necessarily like this, I just said there is this possibility. We may be in the abyss of hell now, and the erosion of the abyss of hell on human will is very terrible, especially for psychics. Governor Gu has consumed countless strength in the battle just now. He is now in the most vulnerable state, and we must go to see how he is doing."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Grit couldn't see the expression of the warband leader in the helmet, but she could hear the alienation and vigilance hidden behind this question.

At this time, she suddenly realized something: I don't know since when, the Phoenixes have called the Governor of the Wrathful Owl Star "Governor", instead of "Governor Gu" or "Governor" like them, the Holy Lilies.

This change is a bit subtle.

She noticed it before and had some associations.

And at this moment, hearing Martins' question, her association was further deepened.

However, now is not the time to explore those things. She also didn't want to have a conflict with him after fighting side by side just now.

She quickly spoke to comfort him: "My sisters and I can help Governor Gu. We can chant the hymn of prayer to the Emperor of God to protect the soul of the Governor from the invasion of darkness; if the Governor is really harmed, we can expel the evil spirits and evil thoughts..."

At this point, Grit paused and continued: "But no matter what, we must find the Governor who fell as soon as possible. The later the chance of something we don't want to see will be greater."

Martins' attitude loosened: "Okay, no matter what, we should find the Governor as soon as possible."

After reaching an agreement, they took action.

It was not difficult to find the Governor. They still remembered where the Governor was when he was floating in the sky.

The Governor fell straight down, so they could probably find him in that area.

However, they were not the first to find him.

When they saw the Governor with his eyes closed and sitting cross-legged in the same place from a distance, a circle of people had already surrounded him.

Apparently, they were not the only ones looking for the Governor. The loyal soldiers of the alliance also spontaneously searched for him after realizing that the governor had fallen. Some ordinary soldiers who were closer discovered the governor's figure.

They may not understand that much, but seeing the Governor's appearance, they can probably guess that the Governor's current condition may not be very good.

As a result, the loyal soldiers spontaneously protected the governor. There was an open space of about fifty meters around the governor, and no one was allowed to get close, including themselves.

When the Sisters of Phoenix and Holy Mercy Lily arrived, the soldiers on the outermost perimeter were still hesitant, but then a political officer stood up.

He seemed to be an instructor of a company-level unit, with the rank of lieutenant, not a high-ranking official.

It was obvious that he was a little nervous when he stood in front of the Phoenix and the Battle Sisters.

However, he still bravely did it.

"Please stop, Lord Governor..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gerrit's voice emerged from the helmet: "Get out of the way!"

She didn't even stop before she was about to pass this mortal soldier.

She was anxious.

She could already feel the uncontrollable evil energy surrounding the governor.

This proved that her previous guess had indeed come true.

The abyss of hell is really not a place where humans should come. Even a powerful psyker like Governor Gu will still be eroded by the all-pervasive will of the abyss when his spiritual energy is exhausted and he is weak and exhausted.

She had to go there as soon as possible and use the protection of the Sisters' faith to help Governor Gu expel the evil forces.

And if things really come to worst...she will make a decision.

It would be terrible for a person who is corrupted by evil thoughts to serve as the governor of a planet.

But this governor has always been supportive of the Sisters' anti-cult actions on the planet. When he heard his request to deal with the cult elements as soon as possible, he agreed and within a few days, launched the entire political system. With organizational skills, she launched the operation according to her plan. In the end, he even came in person to solve the final problem as a powerful psyker.

Without this governor, they would never have been able to defeat the evil god.

Gerrit understood this deeply.

Because of this, she was extremely conflicted inside.

But no matter what, she had to go to the Governor first.

She was so full of these things that she didn't even notice that the instructor was still standing in front of her.

In other words, it’s not that I didn’t notice, but that I didn’t care.

She just pushed the mortal man away with a casual flick.

The instructor, who was pushed aside by a huge force, staggered to the side. After he stood firm, he directly pulled out his pistol and pointed it at the nun.

This action aroused the alertness of the battle sisters behind Gritte. They all took out their weapons and aimed at this bold mortal.

But immediately after, the soldiers surrounding the governor also raised their weapons.

People who are far away don’t know what is happening in front of them. But they could see that the instructor was pushed away and pointed at gunpoint, and that the group of nuns seemed to be breaking into their encirclement.

In an instant, there was hostility between the two sides.

The lieutenant instructor did not fire recklessly. He loudly said to Gritte: "Your Excellency, Sister Sister! The warriors of our alliance all respect you and your sisters very much, and are very grateful for the help you provide to the Raging Owl Star. However, please do not go any further. Come on, the Governor is ill, and we will not let anyone harm him. If you insist on this, please step over our bodies!"

With that said, he turned on the pistol's safety.

Gerrit turned around, took off her helmet, and looked at the lieutenant instructor.

There was no hint of flinching in the mortal's eyes.

The nun sighed, realizing she had made a mistake.

Maybe elsewhere, ignoring the opinions of mere mortals is no big deal.

But here, no.

She changed her attitude and said: "We are here to help the Governor. As you can see, the Governor is not in the right state, and we are here to help him."

As she spoke, she raised her left hand.

From her hand, a ball of light rose.

She said softly: "Did you see it? This is a blessing from the emperor, which can protect mankind from the invasion of evil spirits. The Governor is facing this problem now, and he needs our help very much. So, let us go over, okay?" "

Facts have proved that the battle sisters who claim to be the 'Emperor's Daughters' can still talk well.

Her softened attitude and the help she said made the resolute lieutenant instructor tangled.

He looked at the light in the Sister's hand and his mind wavered.

If there is a threat to the Governor, it goes without saying that the only option is to fight to the death.

But they said they were here to help, and the Governor-General seems to need some professional help now. But if these nuns are allowed to pass, what if they are not good for the Governor?

Seeing the hesitation of this mortal officer, Gerrit decided to add another fire.

She looked at Martins next to her for help.

The Phoenix Chapter Leader also hesitated.

He knew more, but he was even less able to believe in Gerrit.

Battle Sisters... Although the Holy Lily Sisters are not the kind of sisterhood affiliated with the Inquisition, nor the kind of sisterhood with a bloody and dark reputation that focuses on hunting heretics and illegal psychics, they are still battle sisters after all, belonging to the Imperial Church, not the Wrathful Star Alliance.

If the Governor really has problems, who can guarantee that these nuns will not go crazy?

At close range, it is a bit difficult to protect the Governor.

In fact, the choice now is essentially another choice: If the Governor really has problems, how should the Phoenix deal with it?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Pastor Rizzo next to him.

Rizzo just smiled at him and didn't intend to provide any advice.

Martins took a deep breath and made a decision.

"Sister Head Sister." His buzzing voice came from the helmet, "Let your battle sisters lay down their weapons and obey the officer's request. If the Governor needs your help, he will speak. If he doesn't speak, let us wait quietly, I fully believe that the Governor can solve the problem himself."

"Martins! You know what the current situation means! How can you be so irresponsible?! You are a warrior of the Emperor!"

"Of course I am, all the Phoenixes are." Martins said, "So, what's the problem with the Phoenixes pledging allegiance to the Emperor's agent on the Wrath of the Owl Star, to Governor Gu Hang?"

Grit looked very disappointed.

She knew that when Martins also expressed his attitude, she couldn't do anything she wanted to do today.

She and her sisters might be able to ignore these mortal soldiers and force their way in.

But with twelve Space Marines present, that's another matter.

The thirty of them are no match for the twelve superhuman warriors.

Not to mention, there are also thousands of troops of the Governor here.

Her expression became cold, she put on her helmet again, and said, "I know, we will wait outside. Let's see how the situation will change."

"That's right." Martins said.

...

Gu Hang knew roughly what was happening outside.

But he had no time to care.

The head nun's guess was right.

Gu Hang's spirituality was almost exhausted in the battle just now, in the confrontation with the evil god, and all kinds of passive protection effects were almost at the lowest. Because of this, the mental intrusion from the real world and the abyss of hell finally bypassed the defense and revealed its most harmful aspects to psychics.

Mind interference, mental temptation, will tampering, personality change...

Even [Iron Will] didn't work.

Iron Will is to resist and filter the mental damage that is harmful to the subject. It actually played its effect faithfully, and the changes in Gu Hang's mind caused by those extraordinary powers were blocked by this ability.

However, what happened in his soul at the moment may not be considered harmful.

Two different paths were clearly laid out before Gu Hang.

Iron will could resist harmful mental interference, but it certainly could not make certain decisions for Gu Hang.

It became quiet.

It seemed to be waiting for Gu Hang to make a choice.

Should he stick to being a human?

Or... use the body of this slain evil god to ascend to become a 'god'?
