Sinmonger Chapter 27: Angry gods
It took a long time for Lucca, Paper Man and other powerful people to reach the place where Yan Kong and Tang Xian fought, but as expected, there is no half figure here. , and could not detect the presence of any energy nearby.
"It really seems to be a waste of time." Luca said, looking at the wasteland in front of him.
"Judging from the traces on the ground, there have been battles here, but it's hard to say how many people are fighting." Paper Man carefully paid attention to the clues around him. His habit of doing criminal investigation for many years made him instinctively analyze some things. : "There are bloodstains on the ground, but there are no corpses, if there are no footprints... I only saw two people. No matter how many people fought here before, only two people broke the ground during the fight." He paused: "So I infer... there should be only two masters, and they had a battle here. As for the result of the battle..."
Luca said: "Then there are too many possibilities, maybe they both perished, and the bodies both vaporized; maybe one of them removed the other's body for some purpose; it is also possible that neither of them died, One captured the other; or one ran after the other and left the place."
"Do you think one of the two will be Director Tang?" Paper Man asked.
"Oh... who knows..." Luca shrugged: "Even if we measure the size of the two footprints now, we don't have any information on what size of shoes Director Tang wears, right?"
"Sir! Lieutenant Jimmy's side... um... something happened." An eas member came over to report to Luca.
Luka didn't say much after hearing the words. Looking directly at the other party's gaze, I saw a capable person sitting on the ground not far away.
Briskly walked up to Jimmy, Luca looked at him carefully, the second lieutenant looked very young. If you are less than 30 years old, your ability level should be strong. His face was very ugly, he was sweating profusely, and he was sitting on the ground panting hard.
"It seems...the loss of physical strength is more obvious for the lower-level people..." Luca said thoughtfully.
Jimmy looked up and said, "Sir...sir, I'm...all right, haha...just take a break...haha...well."
"No, you have something to do. You are struggling to stand up," said the paper man.
Jimmy seems to be trying to get up, and when he hears this, he wants to stand up.
Paperman put one hand on his shoulder: "Don't waste your efforts, start from this moment. You have to be very careful." His face was terrifying, and it was even more terrifying when he got closer, and Lieutenant Jimmy was caught by the Paperman He stared too hard to move, "This is no joke, if you continue to lose physical strength like this. You will eventually lose the strength to breathe, and your lungs and heart will stop working."
Jimmy was so frightened that his face paled: "Then what should I do?"
Luka said next to him: "This time and space is too dangerous. If we stay here for too long, we will all die. No matter how strong we are, we cannot survive. We must find Director Tang as soon as possible." He paused. : "If necessary, even consider giving up searching for him. Priority is given to finding an exit from this space."
"When necessary?" Paper Man glanced at him: "If you mean the situation where the companions have begun to lose their ability to move, it is now." He seemed to have already thought about what to say just now: " We must get to the city in sight as soon as possible. Because if someone leaves the team in this wasteland with a sense of distance..." He took out the communicator in his pocket, held it up in front of Luca and pressed it a few times, the thing's battery level He couldn't even make a rustling sound, and it was completely scrap metal: "Without electronic equipment and the loss of energy of the stragglers, the possibility of us finding each other in the wasteland is almost zero." He straightened up and looked at The city in the distance continued: "If you reach the city, the situation will be much better. At least there are buildings there that can be used as a reference, and you can roughly distinguish the direction and distance."
Luca thought for a while, then said loudly: "Who else, like Lieutenant Jimmy, can't continue to maintain the speed of travel, let me know." He glanced around, nearly thirty capable people, no one responded He: "If there is, don't hide it. This is not something to be ashamed to admit. If you fall behind in a while, it will bring trouble to others."
Not much to say about the paper man, the paper in the windbreaker has already flown out, forming a large paper blanket floating in mid-air: "Those who feel that it is difficult to cope with the urgent march, come up by yourself, there is not much more than one of you." He put Jimmy picked him up and let him sit on the paper blanket: "My energy should be able to support the city like this, but it's faster." He also jumped on the paper blanket and stood at the front.
Luca said: "Those who are confident that they can still run, just follow behind Chief Ness with me."
"Um...sir." Someone finally raised his hand.
"Don't raise your hand. If you want to hitch a ride, hurry up. Don't waste your time. There are still things to do after arriving in the city. Saving time is saving energy." Luca said sternly.
Soon, six people jumped on the paper blanket one after another, and the paper man said, "Okay, if there are only these people, I'll set off." The comrades, who were already stretched out of physical strength, flew towards the city.
Luca gave a shout, and the others followed him.
…………
The capable people of the empire failed to find Tang Xian, and finally realized that the danger of this space was more serious than what Shishi said, and they began to rush towards the city. And those who are capable of the Iron Commandment can only be described with a miserable word at this time.
The weakest of them have been killed by the blood owl. It is estimated that those few people were fascinated at the time and did not notice the changes in their bodies. When the black beam flew over, they realized that I can't even move my feet, I can walk but can't run, I can stand but I can't move.
And when the remaining dozens of ability people left the battlefield of Jacob and the blood owl, they also discovered the seriousness of the loss of physical strength and energy. If they stay any longer, they will sooner or later become the ruins in this ruin. Withered bones, and finally submerged in the sand.
This group of people moved in the direction of the head of the group and the long pastor with an uneasy mood. Looking forward to the adult they believe in, who can protect them, guide them, and save them.
Five of the reverse cross. Those who are able to come to the temple one step ahead of those who are capable of the Iron Commandments. Each of them carries a fragment of the eternal core, which was collected from all over the world before, which is naturally part of Tianyi's plan. Those who hold this shard can be protected from the loss of physical strength and energy in this time and space. Therefore, in the Hanging Garden, the members of the Reverse Cross are not in a hurry to clash with people from other forces at all. They can delay it for more than 20 hours, and then worry about the gang of people dying? certainly. The situation of the blood owl is a special case. A fighting maniac meets the opponent's brigade on a narrow road, and there is no reason not to fight.
As for the other members of the Inverse Cross, it is quite right to choose to avoid pointless battles. However, they could not sit idly by about Balmond's actions. Preventing that religious leader from accessing the Tree of Life was their main purpose here.
"Hey...Why can't I feel Balmond's energy all of a sudden." Fengxian said, "Is there something wrong with me?"
"Probably not." The Moon Demon replied: "His energy has indeed disappeared, but the energy of the other person is still..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Dino, the chief priest, scrambling out of the gate of the temple, with panic written all over his face. However, his right hand is still holding the big book that never leaves his body, needless to say, that is the foundation of their founding school - the code of precepts.
At this moment, the gate of the temple is fully opened. But the observation angle of the five people of the reverse cross is not facing the gate, so they can't see the iron coffin inside. Nor did the cherubim be seen. They are still some distance from the gate of the temple, and their whereabouts have not been revealed. The five people are still hiding under Doctor Shi's ability. Seeing this situation, they naturally won't show up. They have to figure out what caused a fierce-level ability person to flee in such an embarrassing manner.
Seconds after Dino escaped, they saw a creature with four pairs of huge wings and eyes, floating slowly out of the temple's door.
The cherubim's outstretched outer wings did not move, nor did the two legs move under the wings that wrapped around the body. He is not stepping on energy, nor is he flying with wings, he is completely manipulating his huge body with a kind of thought power. Presumably he just opened the door of the iron coffin and the stone door of the temple, also relying on this kind of thought power.
"That's... an angel?" said the gunsmith, dumbfounded.
"After seeing the three eyes just now, nothing can surprise me." Fengxun replied.
Wei Shengdao: "Isn't this hanging garden the place where all the gods of the 'heaven' in mythology gather?"
"No, they are just creatures." The moon demon said in a very positive tone: "This is a group of creatures that ruled the earth long before humans appeared. Their kingdom has been destroyed, and this space is them The last refuge."
The other four looked at her in surprise. From the tone of their words, the Moon Demon was quite sure of what she said.
"It's your husband..." As soon as the gunsmith said these words, a murderous look came across him. He had to swallow the words and changed his tone: "I mean... it was Tianyi who told you. ?"
The Moon Demon let out a long sigh: "I'm too lazy to explain."
"The part about the husband, or the part about the creatures?" The gunsmith asked again, ignorantly.
"Ask your dad to go!" The Moon Demon replied angrily.
It took the gunsmith more than a minute to remember what this meme meant...
"Lord Dino!" The Iron Commanders finally arrived, and they soon discovered their chief priest. The dozens of minutes of separation seemed like a lifetime ago, these guys really seem to have met each other. Like relatives, they ran over and waited for a well-known person to instruct them what to do next.
Who knows, the always calm, gentle and dignified Manzarek Dino. The spiritual mentor of all the members of the Steel Commandment, with a look of panic at this moment, stumbled in the opposite direction of his subordinates, and behind him, there was a huge unknown creature.
An indescribable fear rose in the hearts of everyone. They all noticed something, but no one believed that this kind of thing would really happen. They were asking two questions in their hearts, where is the chief? Also, the monster at the back...what is it?
…………
Four minutes ago, in the temple.
"The Narrator!" The cherub's celestial face showed an angry look. He roared, "You let a dark water race to slaughter my only remaining compatriots!"
On his four faces and four eyes, there are four people's whereabouts: Tian Yi, Xue Xiao, Dark Water, and Shen Key.
The divine key has now returned from the space rift. However, his position has changed. Like the other three, they are all heading towards the center of the city.
Bamond was awakened by the roar of the cherubim. He came back to his senses and shook his head, but the strange light in his pupils had not disappeared. But he has completely recovered his senses, and at this moment, the mental torment of the dream on him disappeared. Because he obtained the kind of vision that cherubs see things, his brain was clearer than ever before, and the mysteries that had been troubling him a second ago seemed to be solved in an instant. Everything in the world seems so simple and pure.
"Well, I admit, humans are indeed inferior to you." Balmond actually said: "But, I will soon be beyond the human body." He smiled: "Thank you for your blessing. , now I can see the gate of the Garden of Eden by myself. Then...you are useless..." Before he could finish speaking, his body suddenly floated up, but it didn't look like he was moving by himself. Balmond's attitude. He was pulled up by an invisible force.
"I... don't want to be entangled with you at this moment, mortal!" Six eyes on the cherub's arms simultaneously activated powerful thoughts.
Balmond involuntarily flew into the iron coffin. His expression was astonished, but he didn't have the time or strength to do anything at all. The tall and strong body slammed into the needle mountain at an extremely fast speed, and the energy defense was useless. The length of those iron needles was about ten times the thickness of his body. The sight of his flesh being squeezed out was like the pulp and juice of someone struggling to squeeze half a lemon with their hands.
Almost as soon as he was strung on, the iron coffin was closed again with a bang. The cherubim didn't even need to move at all, all these things were done by the power of thought.
Dino's body returned to action as Balmond floated, which should be why the cherubim turned their attention away from him. However, Dino just stood there sluggishly, witnessing his great leader being thrown into the iron coffin. This scene made him completely lose his sense of resistance. If Cesare Bamond was killed so easily, who else in this world could stop the creature in front of him?
…………
"Sir, what's the matter? Where is the chief?"
Dino stopped and looked at his subordinates blankly, his eyes changed from empty to erratic, and finally he smirked like crazy.
"Dino... Your lord..." The subordinates were frightened by him, not sure what the situation was.
"We were wrong...hehe...so...that's God." Dino turned and faced the approaching cherubim.
Those who are capable of the Iron Commandment are all instinctively retreating. They don't know whether the "angel" in front of them is an enemy or a friend, but the sense of oppression when they approach is real.
"Lord Cherubim, please accept my repentance. I was blinded by the power of that mortal, and helped him deceive these ignorant believers!" Dino held up the precepts with both hands and knelt on the ground: " I am an ordinary ability person, the descendant of the Isaiah Monastery, I just use the fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the divination method passed down by the Monastery to make prophecies! I can't see the future at all!" He went crazy With a smile, he tore off the outermost book cover and several layers of paper: "Look, these are all fake, there is no precepts at all, the steel precepts are just lies that have been fabricated and pieced together by generations of leaders. Full of faith. Balmond has used me! Let me intertwine prophecy and lies to help him rule this organization, and help him steal the name of God! Forgive me! Lord Cherubim! I will surrender to you! "
"You...what are you talking about...Dino-sama." The members of the Steel Discipline were stunned, they couldn't believe what their ears were hearing.
"It's so sad, the backbone of these steel commandments, I am afraid that more of them joined the organization for their beliefs, not just as a resistance organization to invest in, they are really 'allegiance' to those adults Yes." Fengxian watched from a distance and felt sighed: "But now, supporting their beliefs has become a worthless scam..."
While he was speaking, the faces of those people were shocked, angry, and the same as Dino, which changed from sluggishness to madness.
Stranger said solemnly: "That's why, many evil religions are clearly using foolish tricks that are very easy to see through ~IndoMTL.com~ but there are many die-hard believers, because those believers need Faith, even if they know that there is only a false truth in front of them, they cannot bear to deny it.”
"Human, my generation...I don't have time to listen to your confession now." Except for the face behind, the other three faces of the cherubs all turned their eyes to Dino, who was blocking the front. It sounded from his chest, and it turned into several voices at the moment: "I have no obligation to listen to your confession." On his open arms, the pupil of one eye turned quietly, turning into a direct look. Dino's status: "And...to use a metaphor invented by you humans - in my dictionary, there is no forgiveness at all."
Boom! Dino's body exploded from the inside, his head and limbs were shattered into several pieces, and flew away. His heart was like a broken oil pump, and blood spurted out from there, rushing to a height of seven or eight meters.
This place is like a red light rain, and the air is still filled with the smell of flesh and blood flying.
The remaining people of the Steel Commandment have only one thought left in their minds at this moment, no matter what, run away! The farther away from this monster the better.
But as soon as they turned around, two other terrifying figures appeared on the road ahead. To be continued. .
