Then, he looked at the distant sea and said seriously, "In the last hundred years, we have discovered that the activities of various evil gods in this area have become more and more frequent."
"We suspect there's something special about this area that's attracting them!"
"That legend?"
Betty seemed to realize something and suddenly raised her head.
Simon shook his head and continued, "Maybe it's related to that legend, but maybe it's not."
"In short, because of their activities, we have another necessary reason to investigate this area of water."
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his right hand, palm facing upwards like a knife, and swept it horizontally to the right.
"Holy Sword"
Golden sword energy poured out, instantly leveling a small grove of trees on the right.
boom!
Immediately afterwards, a violent collision wave erupted from inside, and then as the smoke and dust dissipated, a warrior also dressed in golden armor was revealed.
Although both are golden armors, the newcomer's armor seems to be somewhat different from the Saint Seiya's Gold Cloth.
His armor was surrounded by a layer of golden flames, making him appear as if he were enveloped in a blazing golden fire.
"Capricorn's sword aura is actually quite interesting!"
"No wonder he has the title of the number one killer in the Holy Land!" The golden-armored warrior glanced at the bloodstain on his palm and looked at Simon with a much more serious expression.
"Oh no, it's the Sun Warrior!" Betty of Delphinus recognized the other party at a glance.
Moreover, he was a powerful being who had reached the Seventh Sense, on par with the Gold Saints, and was also an emissary under the command of the Sun God Apollo.
Although in mythology, the sun god Apollo and the goddess Athena of the Sanctuary had a good relationship, for some reason, the awakened sun god was unusually hostile to the Sanctuary, to the point that the two sides are now completely enemies.
"Quick, let me hold him off!" Simon stepped forward and shielded Dolphin behind him.
"Want to leave? Not so easy!"
Accompanied by two more cold snorts, two more golden beams fell from the sky, transforming into two suns that appeared.
They also exuded a powerful aura no less than that of the Gold Saints, and together with the previous Sun Saint, they formed a triangular formation, surrounding the two in the center.
"not good!"
Upon seeing this, Capricorn Simon's expression changed, and his mood plummeted.
One Seventh Sense Sun Warrior was already quite troublesome, but now with two more added, even he might not be able to escape unscathed.
"Holy Sword - Blade Drawing"
Simon didn't hesitate and decisively took the lead.
With a sweeping motion of his hand, a golden ring of sword energy spread outwards, slashing towards the three Sun Warriors.
"Blazing Sun Divine Light"
The first Sun Warrior to appear threw a punch to meet the attack, and a beam of blazing red light shot out, carrying an astonishingly high temperature and bright light, colliding with the golden sword energy.
The other two Sun Warriors had just landed when they were caught off guard by Simon's decisive attack. They could only raise their hands to defend themselves and had no time to counterattack.
boom!
With a loud bang, a violent explosion occurred, and the two Sun Warriors who chose to withstand the attack were directly blasted back by the impact.
However, Capricorn Simon did not gain much advantage from this.
Because another Sun Warrior chose to confront the challenge head-on.
Furthermore, since his power was spread out to attack the three people, he naturally suffered some losses and was also blasted away a long distance by the impact of the explosion.
Fortunately, he also took this opportunity to pull Betty Dolphin out of the three people's encirclement.
"Come on!"
He threw Betty Dolphin out, hoping it would help her escape.
However, facing three fighters of equal caliber at the same time was still too much for him to handle alone.
"Want to leave? Dream on!"
Realizing what had happened, one of the Sun Warriors who had been knocked back attacked in a fit of rage.
"The blazing sun patrols the sky"
He gathered the power of his microcosm and rose into the sky, instantly manifesting as a giant sphere of light with a diameter of over 100 meters, releasing rays of astonishingly high temperature.
"careful!"
Capricorn Simon shouted a warning, but the other two Sun Warriors had already rushed up, completely cutting off any possibility of him getting reinforcements.
High-temperature rays shot down one after another, leaving visible trails in the air like blazing red arrows, instantly covering the entire battlefield.
Betty Delphinus was only at the Silver level, and naturally had no power to resist a being comparable to a Gold Saint.
"what--"
After barely dodging two high-temperature rays, she was struck by a third high-temperature ray, which knocked her down from mid-air.
“Betty—”
Having dodged the attack of the high-temperature rays, Simon's eyes immediately turned red upon seeing this.
The Sanctuary is a difficult place, and the fall of every Saint is extremely heartbreaking. Seeing a comrade fall at this moment fills him with grief and indignation.
"I want you all to be buried with her!"
With a powerful strike, Simon knocked the two back, then created distance and quickly gathered his inner power.
"Holy Sword - Sword Net"
He swiftly swung his hand blade, instantly unleashing wave after wave of sword energy that crisscrossed to form a massive net, which then enveloped the three Sun Warriors.
"Blazing Sun Divine Light"
"Blazing Sun Divine Light"
"Blazing Sun Divine Light"
The three Sun Warriors simultaneously used the same move to counterattack, and three blazing red beams shot out, colliding directly with the golden sword net.
Rumble!
The downward momentum of the sword net suddenly stopped, and then it rose outwards, as if something was trying to crawl out from inside. Then it was directly torn into several pieces by the three divine lights.
Ultimately, Capricorn Simon's strength was still insufficient to fight against three Sun Warriors at the same time.
boom!
He was struck by the residual force of the three blazing red beams, his golden holy armor shattered instantly, and he flew backward covered in blood.
"The Gold Saints are nothing special!"
Upon seeing this, one of the Sun Warriors revealed an arrogant expression.
Another person nodded in agreement, saying, "In the end, the radiance of the Gold Cloths is borrowed from our Lord. Without our Lord's divine brilliance, they are nothing more than a bunch of pitiful worms in the darkness!"
"That's right!"
The third person nodded and sneered, "Without divine protection, they are nothing but pitiful worms struggling in the darkness!"
"Today, let me break this sharpest sword in the Holy Land!"
As he spoke, he took a step forward and rushed directly to Simon.
Simon, who had just gotten up, wanted to fight back, so he chopped at Simon with a chop.
However, how could he, already covered in wounds, possibly be a match for such a powerful Sun Warrior?
The newcomer arrived late but arrived first, grabbing Simon's wrist and forcefully extinguishing the sword energy that hadn't yet been released.
"Your sword energy is nothing special!"
The Sun Warrior sneered, then swung his other fist, striking Simon's right arm heavily.
Click!
With a crisp cracking sound, Simon's right hand twisted in a bizarre way, its bones broken.
He endured the pain without uttering a sound, clenching his teeth and letting blood trickle from the corner of his mouth, as he forcefully swung his other hand to slash at the Sun Warrior in front of him.
But the opponent didn't dodge at all. Instead, he ignited his inner power and maximized the activation of his battle suit, releasing a crimson light.
clang!
Simon's second chop came down, but it encountered great resistance.
His once-proud sword energy could no longer be as unstoppable as before, and it was clearly blocked by the opponent's armor defense.
"My sword—"
At this moment, Capricorn Simon's sword heart shattered, and he completely lost his fighting spirit and will to fight.
Seeing this, the Sun Warrior let out another contemptuous laugh and raised his fist, aiming at Simon's head, ready to deliver a fatal blow.
"The legacy of Capricorn is nothing more than this!"
But at that moment, a powerful killing intent suddenly erupted on the battlefield, as if a mythical beast had descended.
They quickly released their senses, trying to find the source of that murderous intent.
It was only then that they were horrified to discover that a woman in a tattered cloak had appeared on the battlefield, and that the terrifying killing intent emanating from her was coming from her.
"who are you?"
"I don't remember there being anyone like you in the Sanctuary!" a Sun Warrior asked sternly, subtly pressing down on his slightly trembling right leg.
He felt as if he had encountered some extremely terrifying being, and an instinctive fear spread through his heart.
"I?"
The woman shook her head and said casually, "You don't need to know who I am!"
"You have no right to know who I am!"
"I never intended to get involved in your petty squabbles!"
"But what you just said really annoyed me!"
