Chapter 499 Fighting Against God

The situation under the tower was finally resolved, but it was not over yet.

In the tower.

Bang Bang Bang!!!

In the tower, which was already a sea of ​​fire, the sound of burning firewood kept ringing in my ears, and in addition to these sounds.

Clang!!

There was also the sound of metal colliding. It was already a sea of ​​fire, and sparks could still be seen flying.

At the moment when the two figures crossed in the firelight, the weapons of the two people collided, and the two people held the handles of the swords and stared at each other at the same time.

"This tower is about to collapse. It's not worth dying for such a guy!"

Morty looked at the ghost willow in front of him and shouted anxiously. This is a good Rival, and also a person worthy of his admiration. It's a pity that he followed the wrong person.

"This is the final destination of the samurai. Since you don't want to die here, then kill me!"

The ghost willow on the opposite side still had no expression, and his tone was cold without any emotion.

Ding!!!

Morty's eyes shone after hearing the sound, and his arms exerted force at the same time. Both sides bounced back and pulled a distance apart. Then Morty put his knife back into the scabbard.

"Then let's decide the winner!"

"Okay!" Gui Liu's eyes flashed when he saw this, holding the knife with both hands and slowly raised it to the side of his chest.

And Morty opened his legs, holding the handle of the knife with one hand, and slowly raised the other hand to make a gesture of drawing the knife.

Although they were enemies, they had an unexpected tacit understanding at this moment.

They all gave up their defensive postures and planned to give it a try.

"Morty!!"

Violet behind him looked at the scene in front of him worriedly. The situation around them was not optimistic. If they didn't get out, it would definitely be too late.

"Come on!"

The next second, the two rushed forward at the same time. While Gui Liu was swinging the knife, Morty also finished drawing the knife in an instant.

Ding!!!

Passing by, the sound of weapons colliding rang out, the two exchanged positions, Ember scattered in the air, and then the figures of the two seemed to be still before Normal.

Only the surrounding flames were still burning fiercely.

Bang!!

The next moment, there was a crisp sound, and the blade in Gui Liu's hand broke, and Gui Liu himself fell to one knee [Ten hands supported the Ground and the tenth hand looked at the broken knife in his hand.

"You lost!" Morty, who was behind, had turned around and put the knife in his hand back into the scabbard.

"Lost! The knife that has been tempered thousands of times has actually been riddled with holes!"

"You won, Morty!"

Gui Liu laughed at himself, stood up, threw away the broken knife in his hand, and then walked forward while taking off the iron mask and helmet.

"Wait a minute, what are you going to do?" Morty shouted hurriedly.

"It's good to end like this, thank you for giving me Qu Ren's way of death in the end!"

Gui Liu responded while walking towards the raging fire in front of him. Violet was also shocked when she saw this scene, and subconsciously closed her eyes when she saw the figure engulfed by the flames.

"Ghost Willow!!!" Morty shouted subconsciously.

However, Ghost Willow's figure had been completely engulfed by the fire. Even so, he did not make any sound. Morty wanted to move forward, but the fire in front of him spread rapidly.

"Morty, it's too late, hurry up!" Violet also reminded him when she saw this scene.

"Okay, I know!" Morty glanced in the direction of Gui Liu, sighing in his heart, pitying such a strong man.

"But...what about him?" Violet turned and looked at the city lord who fell not far away.

"Tsk! Let this guy live to atone for his sins, it's a bargain for him to die like this!"

Morty took a look, frowned, and finally did not abandon him. If Gui Liu had not touched him so deeply, he might not have saved him.

But Gui Liu was willing to sacrifice his life just to repay his kindness. Although they had different positions, he admired Gui Liu very much. Since he wanted to protect this guy until his death, as a Rival, he might as well fulfill his legacy this time!

Morty stepped forward, carried the city lord without saying a word, and then retreated with Violet.

Boom!!!

Just as the two were about to go downstairs, a burning pillar actually fell down. Violet screamed in Astonish, and Morty, who was carrying a person, also had no time to react.

Hehe~~

At this moment, two dark red rays of light came and hit the fallen pillar directly. The pillar shattered and resolved the crisis faced by the two. "Genggar?"

Looking at the figure that appeared, Morty was relieved after reacting. Gengar also quickly floated down and came to Morty

"Thank you Gengar, protect Violet, let's go out!"

Hehe!!!

Gengar nodded immediately after hearing the voice, and then the two ran out at the same time.

Violet and Morty fled outside with the city lord. As soon as they came out, they saw the city lord's mansion soldiers and the Langya Gang Chengkangs who had been captured by the Shigemoto warriors and Akai's hunter family.

"Brother Miyamoto!"

Morty quickly saw Miyamoto, ran over and threw the city lord to the ground.

When the soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion saw the City Lord, they were all ready to move, but they were quickly stopped by Akai and his men.

"Morty, Miss Violet!"

At this time, Nana also noticed the two of them. Since they separated on the tower, she was also very worried about their situation. [When she saw that they were both safe, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Nana, I'm so glad you're okay. Where's Ash?"

Violet ran up and grabbed Nana's hand. Seeing that Ash was gone, she immediately asked worriedly.

"Ash, he..."

Nana listened and looked up at the sky in the distance. Morty and Violet also looked up at the sky at the same time, and soon saw Ash rushing towards Ho-Oh.

"What does Ash want to do?" The two of them opened their eyes unconsciously when they saw this scene.

"He wants to calm Ho-Oh's anger!" Nana also replied after hearing the voice.

"What? Is this really possible? Ho-Oh is a god, and it just received...

Hearing this, Morty spoke subconsciously. People of their era were limited by the times, and the image of Ho-Oh as an invincible god was deeply rooted.

As for these beliefs, they were obviously much more devout than the Guardian family more than a hundred years later.

Unlike Morty in later generations, who occasionally raised questions such as whether Ho-Oh's advent was really good for Ecruteak City at that time?

This Morty here obviously believed that humans could not compete with gods as the truth.
