Laila drew her bow and shot arrows. Each Heilig Pfeil could shatter hundreds of Mukuro corpses, but after shattering a hundred, a thousand would pounce on them, and after shattering a thousand, ten thousand would pounce on them!
The endless corpses of Mukuro didn't even seep through; as far as the eye could see, whether in the sky or on the ground, there were only walls of these corpses of Mukuro, and they rushed over without regard for the cost!
Even a large enough number of ants can kill an elephant!
Moreover, human physical strength is not inexhaustible!
Using Holy Text consumes spiritual pressure and physical strength. Apollo doesn't know how many of these Mukuro Bones he has killed, yet he still can't see where the end of this wave of Mukuro Bones is!
More and more! More and more! More and more!
Apollo didn't know how long the fight had lasted, but he felt that his spiritual pressure was almost exhausted, and the number of corpses he killed was probably less than one percent of what he had summoned.
Finally, the first skeleton broke through the defenses and grabbed Lyra's face, causing Lyra to scream in terror.
" Apollo! Quickly use your invincible power to clear a path!" Lyra shouted. "Also, these skeletons were summoned by that cat. Quickly use your power to kill that cat directly, and maybe these Mukuro bones will disappear!"
However, Apollo couldn't see Shihōin Chika at all; all it could see were Mukuro bones.
Some of these Mukuro skeletons were armed, while others were simply biting with their teeth. Their spiritual pressure was being constantly depleted, and if this continued, even if they managed to kill all the Mukuro skeletons, they would lose the strength to resist.
At the critical moment, Apollo came up with a good idea.
He radiated golden light, letting the sunlight envelop his entire body, and then charged desperately in one direction.
These Mukuro bones would turn to ash upon contact with the sunlight on his body, meaning that as long as he persisted long enough, he would definitely be able to break through the endless encirclement of Mukuro bones.
As for Lyra...
Good luck to you, I'll put in a good word for you with His Majesty.
After setting its strategic goals, Apollo spared no effort, expending a great deal of spiritual pressure, and burst out of the encirclement of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, its entire body radiating intense light.
Lyra looked at her companion who had abandoned her, and for a moment she didn't know how to react.
Her Holy Text ability, "Death Aura," is specifically designed to target the living, and is completely useless against these overwhelming undead. She can only keep releasing Lingzi Arrows.
But how could she, all by herself, withstand the tidal wave of attacks from billions of undead?
" Apollo! You bastard, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!" Lyra screamed shrilly, but her cries were quickly drowned out by the endless Mukuro bone hell.
Shihōin Chika defeated his powerful enemy and transformed back into a human from a cat, but his expression was extremely grim, as someone had discovered that he could transform into a cat.
" Lukuri, you're a sensible and good girl. You should know what you can and can't say. If this gets out, I'll never forgive you!" Shihōin Chika said through gritted teeth.
Katoribatsuyunsai swore to God that she would never tell anyone about this.
However, after the war ended, the entire Soul Society knew about this, and as for whether she actually said it... well, Katoribatsuyunsai's main strategy was to deny it to the death.
Whatever!
...
Apollo fled in a disheveled state to an unknown corner, panting as he looked back. He breathed a sigh of relief only after realizing that the tide of corpses, Mukuro, had completely disappeared.
"I didn't expect these Shinigami captains to be so terrifying. I think I'll just find somewhere to slack off until the war is over," Apollo muttered.
Most of them followed Yhwach to try their luck at getting rich and to live a better life in the future. Who would want to lose their life?
There are indeed loyal and righteous people in this world, but unfortunately, Apollo is not one of them.
Even the vast majority of people in Sternritter are not like that. Most people only think about their own interests, and they follow Yhwach only because he is strong enough to make people feel scared, nothing more.
Apollo sighed as he walked forward, not knowing which corner he had wandered into, only to find himself in a dead end. In the shadow of the wall, there was a little girl of about twelve or thirteen years old.
The little girl has a face, holds a short knife in her hand, and looks impatient. Judging from her clothes, she should be a Shinigami.
"Hmph, I can't beat the captain of Gotei 13! But I can't beat a little girl like you? I'll capture you and present you to His Majesty!" Apollo walked up to the little girl with a happy expression.
"I'm a gentleman and I don't want to lay a hand on you. Just behave yourself and don't do anything." Apollo was full of superiority, thinking that this little girl was probably about to wet her pants in fear when she saw him. But he found that the little girl just had a cold face and looked at him like he was looking at an ant.
If Shinigami were here, he would immediately recognize that this little girl's face is exactly like Hachiuma Chiyo.
Apollo, who considers himself the sun god, believes that no one in the world, except His Majesty, can be his equal. He is very unhappy to be looked at with such contempt by the little girl in front of him.
"I hate your eyes! I'll gouge them out, burn your limbs, and let you die in agony and screams. Hahaha, what a perfect plan! Sun God, thank you for your unparalleled power!" Apollo's hands erupted with golden light, instantly engulfing the Little girl before him.
"Don't worry, I've controlled the crisis. I won't burn you to death." Apollo said smugly. The dead end had turned into a sea of fire, but the little girl walked out step by step through the flames, her eyes unchanged, looking at Apollo as if he were an ant.
At this point, Apollo had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation!
Did I miss just now?
Should we try again?
Apollo had just raised his hand when he noticed that the little girl had already stood in front of him, slowly drawing her knife!
In an instant!
Apollo, the man who calls himself the sun god, saw the sun blooming before him!
The unparalleled power and intense heat instantly burned Apollo to ashes, bones and skin intact. He probably couldn't even understand what kind of monster he had encountered before he died.
" Little girl " slowly sheathed the knife, her eyes still as cold as ever, as if she had casually crushed an ant.
" What the hell is that bastard Yamabuki doing! How did he make me look like this!" Little girl muttered to herself.
Of course, if it's all for the sake of victory, then I can tolerate it.
