Chapter 658 "The Sword of Despair and Fear" (4500)
"The position of the fifth Austrian musical note has been moved."
The Holy Lion Simu, one of the Four King Fists of the Golem Sect, is on a mission in the United States of Anana. He leads a team and follows Ka Xiu's will to find the last remaining rune of the five cornerstones of the Oyin Civilization.
.
Its rune shape is the outline of two overlapping eyes, with double pupils.
On the island in the center of the lake, Kaxiu is sitting cross-legged. Four points on the outline of his tall body are glowing slightly. The back of his right hand, the back of his left hand, his left arm and shoulder, and the middle of his chest. Life, death, nature, and spirit are all under his control.
Only the last puzzle gap has not been filled.
Once the five runes are gathered together, Ka Xiu will have the means and confidence to target Xia Capital. This is the last theoretical insurance. Otherwise, he can kill or even destroy Xia Capital itself, but he will not be able to prevent Xia Capital from returning to disaster.
The concept of disaster is extremely funny. It is equivalent to actively letting the boss start the second stage and fall into a more difficult battle.
"Oyinwen, Oyinskalo..."
Ka Xiu's whole body was shrouded in the golden sunlight, muttering to himself.
"I really don't know where this mysterious Oyin civilization has gone now. After ten thousand years have passed, Oyinskalo should have come to many worlds invaded by disasters, leaving behind five
Like a cornerstone rune, they spread the fire of resistance. Maybe there will be a chance to meet them in the future, but now we should focus on the present..."
The day before yesterday, February 19th, night.
South Island, United States of Anna, Pennsylvania.
Huangmu City, in the northern suburbs, has a Douglas fir forest.
Douglas fir, also called South Reef yellow fir, is also the origin of the name of Huangmu City. This kind of Douglas fir, with bark like a leopard pattern, is a tall tree that can grow up to 100 meters and can be found along the coast from north to south.
Therefore, this forest is extremely empty and thick. The tall tree canopies block the moonlight and cast large shadows, so that the light on the ground is not so sufficient. The vast but relatively closed forest space gives people a sense of empty valleys, secluded forests, deep mountains and old forests.
Visually, I feel extremely depressed.
Walking in this forest at night, there are rustling in the grass and the sound of unknown animals crawling. The breeze blows, and the leaves and branches flap against each other, as if the waves are piled up. When you look up and scan, you can see that there are thick branches.
Towering yellow cedars rise from the ground and stretch into the sky.
They look like giants standing quietly on the ground.
"Quick, quick, follow closely!"
Next to a thick yellow fir tree, a well-proportioned and powerful man waved to the back and shouted in a low voice. The sound of people trudging through the grass suddenly sounded, and from time to time branches, leaves, roots and stems were torn off.
"Joy, you move too fast, I can't keep up with you..."
A beautiful woman wearing office workers' clothes came out of the grass panting and took the hand that the man was beckoning towards.
"Sorry, Yulia, I shouldn't have involved you in this matter. You are just an ordinary person, and this is too dangerous for you..."
Joey hugged Yulia with some regret, they were a couple.
"Joy, you must tell me what you know."
"There shouldn't be secrets between lovers, right?" Even at night, Yulia's eyes were bright and she stared at her boyfriend with her big eyes.
"Okay, okay. But you must not reveal it to others..."
Joey raised his hands and finally chose to explain the truth.
His identity is not simple. On the surface, he is just a deputy manager of a bank, but in fact he is an exorcist. He is also the son of the president of the Association of Exorcists in the Southeastern United States of Ana. They have been dealing with people in human society.
The bad guy lurks. It is a kind of monster, a monster that eats people's souls. Some people call them evil spirits, but the Exorcist Association prefers to call them nightmares. Nightmares feed on people's fears.
Plant a mark of fear on people, and then slowly torture them until they die.
The souls born in such an environment of extreme fear are the most delicious.
Since his birth, Joey has followed his father to learn how to use the blood power in his body, control source energy, and practice exorcism techniques. After becoming an adult, he joined in actual combat and constantly solved tasks assigned by the Exorcist Association. As for his superficial identity,
It's just his disguise. Every time a mission requires Joey to arrive in a city, the Exorcist Association will help him arrange an identity to investigate strange cases until they are solved.
In the past two or three years, the quantity and quality of the nightmare group in Pennsylvania have increased significantly for unknown reasons, causing many tragedies. So Joey and his companions were arranged to live here permanently, and it was found that the nightmare group was extremely active.
The reason was that it was during this period of stable living that Joey met Yulia, and the two soon fell in love.
As time went by, Joey gradually discovered the reason why the nightmare group gathered towards Pennsylvania. It was the place he came to tonight, deep in the Douglas Grove in the northern suburbs of Yellowwood City.
The nightmares seem to be looking for an ancient ruins. And deep in that ruins, there is what they are looking for, a legendary treasure.
"The Sword of Despair and Fear"
Nightmares are monsters that play with fear, and are born to be masters of manipulating despair. If they get the sword of despair and fear, what will happen? I am afraid that no one can control the entire east coast of the United States of Anna!
Of course, Joey reported the situation to the Exorcist Association headquarters.
The Exorcist Association also gathered its forces half a month ago. The combat forces scattered everywhere arrived in Huangmu City one after another, waiting for a grand operation.
Tonight, Joey, as usual, observed the movements of humans controlled by nightmares. Unexpectedly, they acted at this time. What was even worse was that because the number of nightmares in that area was too dense, Yulia didn't know it.
When was he planted a fear mark and became the prey of a nightmare? Joey panicked as soon as he learned about it.
The fear mark will continue to devour the spirit of the marked person. Only by killing the nightmare who planted the mark face to face can it be lifted.
He absolutely cannot sit back and watch his girlfriend die little by little in the future.
Therefore, Joey made an exception and brought Yulia, an ordinary person, into this exorcist association operation. He hoped that in the ensuing fights and battles, he could find the nightmare and kill it face to face to exorcise the demon.
Only in this way can Yulia return to a peaceful life.
Under the shadow of the tall yellow fir tree, the lovers hugged each other and felt each other's beating heartbeat. Joey patted Yulia's back.
"Don't be afraid, leave the rest to me."
"I will definitely find the nightmare that planted the mark of fear."
"Even if I can't do it, I will beg my father to help me..."
Joey, who had always been quite rebellious due to his strict upbringing, felt for the first time how lucky he was to have such a strong and reliable father.
Deep in the Douglas forest, there is a half-collapsed cave entrance.
Figures in gray robes were busy going back and forth. The huge ritual formed a half-moon shape, covering a range of fifty to one hundred meters around it. Within this range, human bones turned pale in the moonlight.
Inserted at key nodes, the scarlet blood connects the white bones.
This is the mysterious ritual of the nightmares. Eighty-one specially selected human lives are used to assist the desperate fire oil before the death of the living beings, forming a induction ceremony. After igniting, the location of the treasure can be locked.
"Speed up, this ritual will be launched at zero o'clock."
A nightmare that looked like a leader, a hoarse and terrifying voice came from under the hood. After a few seconds, it suddenly took off its hat, revealing a strange head. It was obviously a human face, but the surface was covered with a mass of illusion.
Black smoke and smoke constantly transform into evil spirits, demons and monsters.
Even the faces of men, women, old and young screaming in pain.
This is the Nightmare, a semi-parasitic dark creature. After devouring the life and soul of the host, they will gain part of their physical quality. When the Nightmare descends on a new host, it can give this new body a terrifying blessing.
, combined with the mental ability of the nightmare itself.
The potential of their clan is not inferior even to that of the werewolf clan.
"Remember, no matter what comes close to the Blood Soul Ceremony, kill them all without mercy!" The leader Nightmare snorted coldly, with a ferocious expression: "Exorcist Association, do you think I don't know that you have been tracking the traces of our Nightmare clan? Today you have
If you dare to come, I will send you to death..."
Outside the Douglas Grove, figures wearing white shirts and black vests, who looked like hunting attire and gangster attire, gradually approached. There were many of them, holding short knives in their left hands and holding a pocket glass ball in their right hands. They were cold and silent.
, seems to be waiting for something.
In front, a tall figure with a black suit draped over his shoulders, leaning on a cane in his left hand, reached into his pocket with his right hand and took out a silver lighter. There was a click, flames lingered, and he lit the end of the cigarette.
The man stood in the darkness, with a little red light burning and smoke billowing.
"Carter, lead a group of people and cooperate with the police to seal off the entire forest. Don't let people outside enter or people inside escape." The man turned his head and looked at a figure on his left.
"Understood." The figure nodded.
"The remaining people, enter combat mode and turn on the exorcism mode..."
"Today, we are going to play a big one!"
The man laughed softly, then led the team and rushed into the forest.
*************************************
Half an hour later, on the outskirts of Yellowwood City, outside the yellowwood forest.
As if they had agreed, two figures arrived in front of an iconic boulder. One was wearing a gray robe, and the other was wearing a black robe. They walked very fast, as if they were flickering and moving, and they suddenly appeared.
"Carlo, you are very punctual."
The figure in black robe said, he had been waiting for some time.
"Vinson, I will never be late for this matter."
The gray-robed figure came step by step to the boulder and stopped.
Under the white moonlight, the two men took off their hoods at the same time. Suddenly, they revealed two faces that looked slightly older, but still looked majestic and powerful.
If there are masters from the secret martial arts community on the east coast of the United States of Ana who are watching here, they will definitely scream in surprise. Because these two people were once famous people. Carlo of the Burning Fist and Vincent of the Blood Hand were both great
The first elder of the sect was once the leader of the sect, but now he has stepped down to serve as the foundation of the sect. Yes, both of them have the strength of top fighters.
Twenty or thirty years ago, they fell in love and killed each other, they were both enemies and friends, and they even had the vague title of peerless pride. Their legend was prevalent in the secret martial arts world.
In front of the boulder, Carlo and Vincent chatted like they were reminiscing about old times.
"This is probably the third time we have joined forces after discovering the ruins of the cave nine years ago. There are so many dangers inside. Even if you are a top fighter, you will get caught if you are not careful. After three cooperations, we only got through.
The first floor of the ruins, I don’t know if I can…”
Burning Fist Carlo sighed, seeming to be remembering something.
"Just the first level has brought many foundations and benefits to our sect. Those items with aura of fear, regardless of their own value, are already worth a lot in terms of tempering the will of our disciples.
It’s worth it. In the past nine years, the success rate of the new generation of disciples under your sect has increased significantly, and they have frequently achieved excellent results in the league..."
Blood Hand Vincent shook his head and continued.
"I really don't know what kind of treasures there will be on the last floor of that ruins? I won't be able to rest in peace if I don't take a look..."
After exchanging pleasantries, the two of them headed towards the woods in the distance.
Soon, they came to the yellow cedar forest.
When they were quite close, the two stopped suddenly.
In front of me, I saw figures in hunting attire blocking the road. Next to them, there were even police assisting, and the light of torches flickered.
"Who? Who's there!?"
Members of the Exorcist Association rushed over immediately. Some held daggers in their hands, while others grasped glass balls, and glanced over with scrutinizing eyes.
Carlo and Vincent remained motionless, as if they were in shock.
"Leave immediately! There is a murder scene ahead! Stay back!"
These exorcists in hunting attire pressed forward step by step, scolding.
Directly in front of them, less than two meters apart, Carlo and Vincent slowly raised their heads, looked across the gap in the exorcist's body, and suddenly looked at the darkness behind them: "Friend... your domineering aura is not suitable for hiding..."
"What friend? I told you to leave immediately, didn't you hear me?"
Several demon hunters frowned and tried to drive them away by force.
Not far away, in the forest, in the dark shadows, a figure as strong as a lion walked out slowly with heavy steps. The moonlight shone down, outlining the tall outline of the body, the high bridge of the nose, and the mane of a lion.
Hair-like, long golden hair hanging freely on her shoulders.
On the shoulders, two golden rivets stuck the short cape behind him.
The cloak fluttered up and down, vaguely revealing the magic words on the back.
His entire body was expressionless, and his handsome face was like a statue.
"Tell me the location of the ruins and I will let you two live..."
The tone was plain and ordinary, but there was a ferocity and chill in it.
"Haha, what a boy!"
Carlo's expression fell, with a sneer.
"This is the first time in the entire east coast secret martial arts world that someone dares to talk to me like this!" Vincent took off his hood, revealing a strong face.
Three powerful figures were facing each other from afar in two directions.
A kind of solemn invisible aura is constantly colliding in mid-air.
"Hey what's going on! How did you get into the woods? Come out quickly! There is a murder scene inside. Do you want to go to jail?"
On the left side of Saint Lion Simu, two demon hunters ran over quickly.
There was also a policeman following behind, obviously here to support him.
However, Saint Lion Simu, Burning Fist Carlo, and Blood Hand Vincent all ignored the movement next to them. They only had each other in their sights.
"Then let's try it...how much do you weigh?"
A cold light flashed in the eyes of Carlo and Vincent at the same time, and they rushed out in an instant, with fiery red and blood red aura erupting from their bodies.
The holy lion Simu left an afterimage in place, and his power increased dramatically at the same time!
Bang!!!
A strong and powerful wind wave spread out, blowing away the exorcists and police officers nearby. Some of them were unlucky enough to hit a tree and fainted on the spot.
The sand and rocks are flying, and the leaves are falling like rain.
Boom boom boom boom!
Three astonishingly strong figures fought and fought wildly, breaking countless yellow fir trees nearly 100 meters high along the way, and plunged straight into the depths of the forest. Astonishingly, a tunnel visible to the naked eye was carved out.
"They, who are they?"
On the spot, only a few demon hunters who were blown by the strong wind and filled with tears and dizzy stood there stupidly. They were stunned and stared at the three people who disappeared in the distance and the astonishing traces of destruction they left behind with their jaws dropped.
