Chapter 1040: Once You Have Faith, You Can’t Be Defeated

"Shun, I have some bad news for you. Your brother, Ikki, was terminally ill during his physical examination last year. He only has three to five years to live." Lake went to find Shun and said with a sad expression.

"What, how is that possible? I had a video chat with my brother last night and he didn't tell me about it. He looked very healthy!" Shun said in shock.

"The test results were not told to your brother. In fact, Ikki's illness is due to the fusion of many powers of Apocalypse. He has practiced too hard these years, and his body has a rejection reaction. The reason why your brother works so hard to become stronger is because he wants to help You, a Saint, work so hard to share the pressure of protecting Athena!" Lake continued.

"Is there any way to cure it?" Shun asked nervously.

"The current scientific and technological medical capabilities cannot cure the physical rejection of Ikki's mutant power. There is only one way, which is the goddess Athena who has restored her divine power. Her healing ability should be able to cure your brother's disease! But Miss Saori is not good now. She has not recovered her divine power yet. It is estimated that Saori will be able to regain Athena's divine power in two or three years! By the way, don't tell your brother about this, otherwise he will lose hope in life! "Rake said, and then walked away, leaving Shun alone there in a daze.

Reike then went to find Saori and briefly talked to Saori about the situation he had told the saints.

After all, these Saint Seiyas will probably stay by Shazhi's side to protect her for about a year.

If Saori didn't know about this, once she talked to these saints on weekdays, it would probably be counterproductive to let Seiya and the others know that their future expectations didn't exist at all.

Fortunately, Kido Saori and Lord No. 2 have lived together for two years, and they have some trust in each other.

Lake explained to Saori that he did this to protect her life and to survive.

"Oh, that's it. If you agree to Seiya and the others' requests in advance, I will try my best to help you if I regain Athena's divine power in the future. But I can't guarantee whether I can handle it by then." Saori was very worried. He said happily.

After hearing this, Lake wanted to talk to Shazhi now. After she gets the power of Athena, she can give him some blood.

However, Lake thought about it and gave up the impulsive idea.

Even if Saori agrees now, when she really recovers Athena's memory, she will be able to take the initiative to give her blood.

Moreover, if the matter of drawing blood had been mentioned first, once Athena regained her divine power, she would probably be on guard against drawing her blood, and then she would be self-defeating.

On the contrary, it had the opposite effect.

Lake found that Miss Saori also looked a little unhappy today, with a frown on her face.

"What's wrong with you? You haven't eaten well recently. The food doesn't suit your appetite? I'll ask the kitchen to change the recipe for you!" Lake asked Kido Saori.

Saori shook her fat face depressedly, "Hey, I just eat too much and I'm too fat. Now that I'm so fat, I feel bad. I don't want to be Athena and get that magical power. I I just want to lose weight and not save the world." Saori sighed.

When Reike heard what Saori said, he felt bad.

If Saori doesn't work hard, once she is hit by a golden arrow in the future and has no desire to live, Saori will be unable to withstand the damage caused by the golden arrow and die, and her work will be in vain.

"Actually, if you restore Athena's divine power, you can lose weight and become slimmer. Think about it, Athena, the embodiment of battle and wisdom, is not fat in those stone statues of Athena. It means that after you awaken and restore Athena's divine power, You can rely on divine power to make yourself slimmer! So, you must work hard and awaken as soon as possible!" Lake said casually looking for excuses.

"Is it true? After I awaken the divine power of Athena, I can automatically lose weight. I don't even have to lose weight. I can easily lose weight by using my divine power?" After hearing what Lake said, Saori stood up in surprise. Asked Lake again.

"Yes, of course it's true! You will definitely be able to lose weight in the future. As long as you want to lose weight by then, you can!" Lake nodded and said.

Lake also didn't know whether Saori would be able to lose weight after regaining Athena's divine power.

However, Lake judged that Yawei, who had restored the power and memory of the goddess Athena, would definitely have much stronger self-control than she does now.

And when the time comes, he will no longer be able to interfere with her weight loss plan.

If Athena wants to lose weight in the future, it will not be a big problem if she wants to become slimmer again in a few years.

"This news is great, you should have told me earlier!" Saori said excitedly. She changed from her previous sad look and started to pick up the snacks on the table, eat them, turn on the TV in the room, and start watching TV series. .

After Lake chatted with Shazhi for a while, he left.

At night, when Lake was about to rest in his room, he looked through the window and saw two figures walking on the lawn outside the villa.

Lake checked it with his Fiery Eyes skill, and was a little worried that it was the evil Saint sent to the Sanctuary to assassinate Athena.

But after reading it, Lake realized that he had worried too much.

The people walking around outside were Zilong and Binghe. They were patrolling together, dutifully protecting Shazhi's safety.

After reading it, Lake felt relieved.

Now it seems that the professional ethics of the four Saint Seiya bodyguards have improved several times, and they have begun to take the initiative to shoulder the mission of protecting Kido Saori.

Half a month later, Saints sent by the Sanctuary began to come to the villa area on the mountain to attack Kido Saori.

The ones who came at the beginning were the Bronze Saints, four little strong ones who could still be dealt with.

Lake intentionally didn't take any action, letting the four little masters fight monsters and level up.

But another month later, the Silver Saints began to come, especially Medusa, who petrified Seiya, Hyoga, and Shun.

Purple Dragon was about to burn the small universe and was about to blind his own eyes. When Lake found out, he quickly went out to stop it.

Lake opened the magic portal and brought a large mirror directly to Medusa.

Medusa, the Silver Saint, closed her eyes vigilantly.

Lake immediately teleported behind Medusa, took out the golden cudgel, and slapped Medusa on the head with the stick.

Zilong also took the opportunity to close his eyes and activated his Lushan Shenglongba, hitting Medusa.

This Silver Saint was defeated by Lake and Purple Dragon.

After Medusa Saint died, Lake absorbed the energy from Medusa Saint's corpse and felt that he became a little stronger.

With Medusa dead, the petrified Seiya, Hyoga, and Shun began to return to normal.

"Don't close your eyes and use Lushan Shenglongba in the future. It's too scary and almost hit me!" Lake warned Zilong.

Until today, Zilong, Seiya, Shun and Hyoga did not know how powerful Lord No. 2 was. Before, they thought that Lord No. 2 was just a little more powerful than ordinary people and could use teleportation and teleportation abilities.

Unexpectedly, the real fighting power of this No. 2 Venerable was only stronger than them.

"I'm sensible. I can sense the small universe in Medusa's body. Under normal circumstances, I should be able to hit without missing a beat!" Zilong said with some embarrassment.

Now the Saints sent by the Sanctuary to attack Athena are getting stronger and stronger.

Lake knew that the Kido family's villa complex could no longer stay.

Reike then began to greet Tatsuki, and he took six servants with him, preparing to leave the villa first.

Lake opened the magic portal and teleported away directly with Athena and others. They went to an oasis in the desert and planned to stay for a few days.

Reike originally wanted to go to a small island by the sea, but after thinking about it, Reike was a little worried. It would be even more terrifying if the plot of the Poseidon Saint was triggered in advance.

In the desert, after playing in the sand for two days, I couldn't get enough of the sun anymore. Everyone asked for Venerable No. 2 to change places.

Lake could only open the magic portal, leaving this relatively safest position.

Lake began to take Athena and others around the world.

Just stay in a city for a day or two. Then at noon on the second or third day, open the magic portal and change places to live.

After all, Gu Yi has not yet finished his retreat and has not been able to fully integrate the power of the Phoenix.

Lake planned to delay it as long as possible. As long as he was not encountered by the Gold Saints, he and his people would have no problem dealing with the scattered Silver Saints.

As time went by, Lake and others also encountered Silver Saints from all over the world who came to encircle and suppress them.

From the mouth of the defeated Silver Saint, Lake learned that the Sanctuary had begun to send out Gold Saints to search and kill the liar Kido Saori who dared to impersonate the goddess Athena.

"The eldest lady who slandered us, Venerable No. 2, when will we enter the sanctuary to prove that the eldest lady Saori is the real goddess Athena?" Tatsumi asked Lake this question.

Lake looked at Kido Saori on the side and heard Seiya and others say that a small universe has appeared in Saori's body recently.

The small cosmic energy in Shazhi's body is very pure and the most powerful they have ever seen.

But now the existence of Saori's small universe is very small. It is just in the awakening stage. Although the energy is pure, it is almost useless in battle.

Because Saori cannot activate the attack moves of the microcosms, the only effect of the small amount of pure microcosms that Saori now has is only some healing effect.

Because Saori has begun to awaken her small universe and has healing effects, Lake has found that Shun has been working extra hard recently when fighting enemies.

"Wait a little longer. It will be safe for us to go to the Sanctuary until the little universe of Shazhi is stronger!" Lake said, deciding that he could delay it longer, but it would be best to wait until Gu Yi can go to fight before going to the Sanctuary to fight. Zodiac signs.

Anyway, there is no time limit for this Saint Seiya plot. Zhutian Online has no time limit. Lake's three main missions of Wolverine will not start until Professor X becomes an old man decades later.

Lake felt that he had plenty of time now and did not need to take risks to immediately attack the Zodiac in the Sanctuary.

Just recently, the number of silver and bronze saints sent by the sanctuary has been relatively large. Delaying for a while can also allow Seiya and the others to train more.

Lake had already vaguely felt that the four little heroes Seiya grew up faster the more they experienced battles.

At first, they had to fight together to deal with the Bronze Saints, but now they can all deal with the Silver Saints.

During this period, Lake asked Shun, who often made video calls, how his brother Ikki was doing recently.

Shun said that Professor X had successfully killed the aliens with Ikki, but Magneto was released.

Professor X did not arrest Magneto and return him to prison.

Magneto is now free and nowhere to be found.

Finally, after traveling around the world for three months, Lake and the others were still blocked by the Leo Saint Aiolia. They were blocked outside the door of a resort by the Golden Saint.

"This super big dog-headed Golden Saint is so powerful, he can find them all!" Lake thought helplessly, but he didn't go into battle yet.

Let the four of them, Seiya, Hyoga, Purple Dragon and Shun, go up to fight the enemy first. Lake was at the back, standing with Kido Saori to watch the battle.

It just so happened that Lake was going to take this opportunity to see what the strength of the Golden Saint was.

Let's see if Seiya, Hyoga, Purple Dragon and Shun can defeat a Golden Saint in a four-on-one situation.

But the result came out quickly. The Leo Golden Saint's lightning speed punch was used only once, and he knocked down all four Saints including Seiya.

Lake was watching from behind, and he felt so sad. He had been training Seiya and the others for so long, but they all lay down on the ground without even catching a single move from the enemy.

Fortunately, dozens of seconds later, Seiya stood up again. This little strong man was more resistant to fighting, and the holy clothes on his body began to assemble, like a Transformer.

Purple Dragon's shield, Shun's chains, and Hyoga's boots were all added to Seiya's Pegasus Saint Cloth.

Seiya punched Aiolia again.

However, despite Raike Bai's expectations, the result was still the same. With one move, Seiya was knocked down again.

Lake felt that even if he tried his best, if he fought with this Leo Saint, the outcome would only be five levels.

After all, in the two moves just now, it was obvious that the Leo Golden Saint Aiolia did not use all his strength against Seiya and the others, but just punched twice casually.

Lake began to take out the golden cudgel and prepared to deal with the enemy.

Aiolia has been walking slowly towards Lake and Saori.

"stop!"

Lake was pleasantly surprised to find that it seemed that he didn't need to fight anymore. Seiya, this Xiaoqiang, was so invincible that he stood up again and stood in front of him and Saori.

From the distant sky, the Sagittarius Golden Saint Cloth flew quickly and was put directly on Seiya.

"I want to protect Athena, and I want to see the master every day!" Seiya roared and began to burn the small universe.

Aiolia looked back at Seiya in confusion, not understanding the meaning of the second half of the sentence.

Aiolia was also a little surprised as to why he was willing to wear the Sagittarius Golden Saint Cloth on this Bronze Saint.

The two soon exchanged moves again.

This time Seiya, wearing the Sagittarius Golden Saint Cloth, did not fall down.

However, they failed to knock down each other, and the two could only be considered a draw with this move.

"True Shadow Word!" Lake immediately activated his healing skills and set four recovery circles on Seiya. He also placed two recovery circles on Zilong, Hyoga and Shun who were lying on the ground.

Lake looked at this situation and felt that the four little strong men had the hope of beating this Leo.

Purple Dragon, Hyoga and Shun, ten seconds after receiving Lake's treatment, also stood up one after another, blocking in front of Athena and Lake, standing side by side with Seiya.
