At the same moment, in another corner of this burning city of shadows, on a small hill near the Lucas family residence, three figures were standing on a protruding rock looking at the smoky city below. Two of them were A tall and tall man, the other is a petite and slightly thin woman, all three of them are wearing black long trench coats of the same color, with a huge and exquisitely structured battle crossbow on their backs, the man standing in the front has short gray hair , with several shocking scars on his face, and a blindfold on one eye, he looked stern, looking at the raging fire under the hill without mercy.
Standing beside him was another tall man with a dark complexion and a bald head. He looked a bit like a black descendant of South America. He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was listening to the news from afar, and then opened his eyes to look at himself The leader: "Elder Hassu, the attack on the west side has been contained."
"On the west side... is that vampire group called the Hessiana family?" The one-eyed man known as the elder Hasu nodded, "That group of vampires seems to be a little different from the usual species, and it seems a little tricky?"
"They have set up machine gun bunkers, tank guns, mines, howitzers, chemical weapons and gas traps, and all of the above weapons have magical effects," the dark-skinned man had a strange expression on his face, "We seem to be attacking a human being." Fortresses, instead of fighting vampires, those light and heavy weapons are very troublesome to deal with, and there are too many of them. Moreover, the news from the front mentioned that those vampires can resist the holy power, and the holy water and exorcism spells of the demon hunters have little effect on them Effect."
Hasu's face was slightly surprised: "Resist the divine power? I think of a very old elder... I hope she didn't get involved in this matter..."
"Who are you referring to?"
"It's nothing, don't worry about it." Hasu shook his head, "It shouldn't be her, she is not a real vampire, and she can't pass on the power of her blood to so many people. In short, increase the attack on the west side. Those vampires may be What has been researched during the thousands of years of hiding in the shelter, they cannot be allowed to pass on this achievement to other aliens."
"Is it necessary to destroy the whole city?" The female witcher who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke up. She was a girl who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old. long hair. Even her eyebrows were the same white. Looking at the burning city below, she had a strange expression on her face, even mixed with a trace of imperceptible regret, "They haven't come out to hurt anyone for thousands of years."
"White Fire, put away your useless pity," Hasselblad gave the white-haired girl an indifferent but majestic look, "they killed more people thousands of years ago than you can know in this lifetime , They have lived peacefully for thousands of years, but they just couldn’t find a chance to make trouble.”
"I just think it's a pity that this city is ruined like this..." the young demon hunter named White Fire hurriedly defended. "And there are at least a few civilians in the city, right?"
"When Mohenjo-daro was destroyed, no one interceded for the civilians in the city, and neither did Knossos—they were destroyed even because the offerings for the sacrifice were not fresh enough, or someone in the city was on the day of the sacrifice. I didn’t go to the temple to worship in time,” Hasu folded his arms and looked at the fire in the city indifferently. “The creatures in this city and their entire race are not worthy of pity. The only thing that happened here is regrettable.” The only thing is that they died two or three thousand years later."
Hasselblad's reprimand made Bai Huo bow his head and dare not speak. The dark-skinned man next to him silently glanced at the young disciple: "Baihuo, you are the most talented demon hunter ever, but your only shortcoming is this inexplicable sympathy. There is a law of balance, which pays for your gift with this useless sympathy—you have to be on your guard against this, and don't let this queer state of mind affect your future."
Bai Huo bowed deeply: "Yes, keep your teachings in mind, Master Tutan."
Hasselblad frowned slightly as he listened to his assistant for many years educating the "child prodigy" who was gifted but had constant problems. He knew that there were quite a few "new generations" like Baihuo who were curious about aliens, and even doubtful about the mission of the demon hunter. It's just that this girl is too good. It just seemed too prominent. The saints noticed this a hundred years ago and conducted a secret statistics. They found that almost 40 to 50% of the demon hunters passed down to a certain generation had this phenomenon of wavering beliefs. It is about seven to eight generations from the first witcher to the newborn witcher who has problems. This phenomenon occurs so intensively in a particular generation or two, and it occurs worldwide. Obviously, it can no longer be explained by improper education or environmental factors, and the reason is not external. Should be inside.
Maybe something went wrong in the blood.
Or maybe it's just like the heretic scholar who was executed last month said - a certain deviation in the blood is about to be corrected.
Hasu shook his head, and stopped thinking about these things that made him vaguely afraid. He had lived for too long, and certain things were as deeply rooted in his heart as the truth. He was unwilling to believe, or even assume that these truths would collapse once possibility. But he also wanted to verify certain conjectures, so he took a huge risk and used his authority as an "elder" as a guarantee to make a deal with the evil aliens in this city. Is there a similar situation in China, but he is sorry, and of course he may be very relieved to find that at least the Shadow Fiends have not changed: the latest generation of Shadow Fiends is still as greedy and cunning as their old ancestors, and they are ashamed of their own race. Any creature outside is extremely cruel and indifferent.
The bloodline of a demon hunter is indeed fundamentally different from that of other species. Even if the new generation of demon hunters began to have some strange problems, this at least proved the purity of the bloodline of the demon hunter.
As one of the oldest demon hunters, Hasselblad is more willing to interpret the whole thing in this way, and when the sinful city in front of him was burned and the sacred object was retrieved, this absurd farce And this ridiculous "verification" should be over.
"Elder," the man called Master Tutank suddenly interrupted Hasselblad's contemplation, "Do you think that Shadow Demon has the slightest sincerity?"
"No," Hasselblad shook his head indifferently, "They have no sincerity, but at least they have value, and valuable things should be used as much as possible. This is our experience from the most difficult years, sometimes..."
A hoarse female voice suddenly interrupted Hasselblad from the side: "Value... Ha, anyway, you will soon be worthless..."
Before the words fell, a scorching light curtain appeared out of thin air, and immediately after that, a huge mace jumped out of the light curtain with the momentum of destroying mountains, and hit Hasselblad's head straight!
"boom-"
A burst of shock that nearly collapsed the entire mountain, and the entire mountain was covered by a scorching light curtain and billowing thick smoke. Under the glow of the setting sun, the rocks began to melt, and the plants evaporated instantly. Even the silt turned into a thick liquid and slowly flowed down. The figures of the three demon hunters appeared in the sky in an instant. A layer of pure white light shields shone on their bodies, which finally offset the power of the scorching sun. Bai Huo's face was still in shock, while Hasselblad frowned as he watched the female figure gradually appearing in the billowing smoke: "... Hesperis... I have long suspected that you are still alive."
"But you will live until today!"
An earth-shattering battle broke out. Bai Huo and Tutan tried to help their boss deal with the crazy woman who appeared suddenly, but they were soon entangled by the ancients who rushed out from other directions and attacked.
After the end of the age of mythology, the confrontation between the ancient "gods" and the demon hunters started again under this circumstance.
At the same time, Hao Ren and Hesianna and their group came to a strange place.
Theoretically, it should still be the ruins in a different space, but the energy storm in the space has subsided, and the structure and scenery of the entire space have undergone earth-shaking changes.
It seems that Bethemos activated something in the ruins after escaping here, and it may also be that the entrance below the Shadow Demon Castle leads to an unknown deeper layer of the ruins. In short, what appeared in front of everyone was not the endless sea of clouds and A temple floating in the clouds, but...
A desert.
Lily squatted on the sand dunes looking up to the sky and screaming: "Wow - where are you going!" (To be continued~^~)
