319. Robbery of the Execution Ground
Raven bowed his head.
Just as the girl was about to take a step forward and put her white neck on the thick hemp rope sleeve.
It can't see anything anymore.
A large black body swam through the clouds.
The entire vast city-state was shrouded in celestial serpents.
The crowd didn't realize what was above them at first, but they were amazed at why, in an instant, the sky was swallowed up in darkness.
Many people looked up, but they could see nothing, and fragments of the fire appeared in the darkness, swaying like flowers in the sea of people.
Someone lit a lamp.
Even the Boss of Spades, who already knew what was on his head, almost sank into bottomless terror at this moment.
No, it should be said that it was precisely because he knew what was swimming above people that he was hit even greater.
Reason can be understood, but feelings cannot be accepted.
The reason is simple, it's too big.
The size of the Serpent's body was beyond the comprehension of mortals.
There is a scale in the sky.
In his original vision, the width of the snake's body was no more than the size of this scale, and it was not even as wide as the ordinary scale he saw today.
Bang!
"Thunderclouds?"
The Boss of Spades took a deep breath.
No, it's not thunder, it's just the sound of scales rubbing against each other, and although the timbre of friction shouldn't be like this, when something is beyond human comprehension, it is distorted in the realm of human cognition.
Unacceptable because it can't be understood, and incomprehensible because it can't be accommodated.
Hara had tried her best to "boast" about the greatness and horror of her Serpent form, but the Boss of Spades had never recognized its true appearance.
It's not that Hara is inaccurate, it's not that he doesn't believe Hera.
It's just that the mortal brain can't imagine it until it is actually seen, just as human beings can't imagine the existence of a five-dimensional space.
Five minutes?
He used to think that five minutes was not enough.
Now he thinks.
Five minutes was too long for the Duke of Spades.
It was hard for him to imagine how the Duke of Spades would hold up for five minutes.
And then survive.
The Duke of Spades smiled and stared at the huge object.
Few of those present knew better than him what this was.
Just by virtue of its huge size, it is a terrifying monster that can materialize fear.
Of course, he had heard of the vast dark entities that appeared above the Wasteland of Death, but no matter how much he imagined, he couldn't construct such a thing in his own brain.
The mere outline of a piece of scale already occupied the corresponding cognitive functions in his entire visual system and soul.
And beyond the scales, sorry, his brain can't be reached.
Huge.
Enormity is the most instinctive fear of human beings, since tens of thousands of years ago, humans have avoided those creatures that are larger than them, and even when humans were not human, they have long understood the horror of enormity.
The so-called enormity is not an increase in volume, but conceptually incomprehensible, untouchable, and unacceptable.
It's like microbes can't understand mammals, that's and basic common sense.
The Duke of Spades laughed more and more.
If it was in the past, no matter how strong his will was, he would have been shocked, and the seeds of fear would have been left in his heart.
But having heard the Queen's gospel, he is no longer the same.
No more timidity, no more fear, no more surprise, no more annoyance.
For the incomprehensible, the unknown, the only thought left is not understanding itself.
The only affection he had left.
There is only bliss.
The scales begin to move downward.
The sky fell.
The crowd fled in all directions screaming, and some believers even knelt down on the spot, praying sincerely for the gods' forgiveness.
A small number of people are staring at the sky in a demented state, trying to understand what it is, but the longer they look, the more sluggish their brains turn.
There were only nearly a thousand people left, smiling and waiting for the master's order.
The Duke of Spades calmly analyzes the intentions of the master of the scales, whether he wants to devour the soul, or to feast on flesh and blood, or just to create a massacre?
Even its intentions may not be understood by humans, what it does is beyond the cognition of carbon-based beings, and its actions may not make sense to humans, or it may represent the supreme sacred.
But none of this matters.
The giant monster itself is still flesh and blood, and it has not reached the legend, and he can fight it.
No, he was able to overcome.
For the supreme gospel which he hears is a truth that surpasses all things.
Victory over greatness, victory over death, victory over evil, victory over the sun, victory over right and wrong, victory over freedom, victory over the soul.
It is a truth that belongs to humanity.
The poisonous mist of death permeated from under the knight's skin, corrupting all the flashy flesh and blood, leaving only pure soul and bone.
The knight's sword was raised and pointed at the unspeakable monster in the sky:
"For the Queen!
The light of holiness emerged from the empty chest, piercing through the already filthy bones, purifying them as white as snow.
The dark blue ghost fire is also dyed with sacred gold.
The Death Knight leaped lightly, floating upwards under the swastical light.
The scales are getting lower and lower.
The knights are also getting faster and faster.
The light on the sword grew brighter and brighter.
Pierced!
The Duke of Spades thought in surprise.
Although he was slightly hindered, the scales could not stop his blade at all.
In the light of the Most High Gospel, the Death Knight tore the scales of the monster, and he knew what he was going to do.
Together with the sword, he rushed into the monster's body.
In the end, the scales did not fall to the ground.
It just gently scraped the girl standing in front of the gallows.
The magic rune flickered quickly, and then went out directly.
Peloris seized the opportunity and immediately broke free from most of the shackles that restricted her movements, leaving only the muzzle too late to remove.
The Boss of Spades also ended his prayer and stood up:
"Girl!"
Peloris was pleasantly surprised and rushed to the Boss of Spades.
The Boss of Spades shouted:
"Follow me. ”
A shadow appeared behind the Boss of Spades, smashing all the clown members who approached him with his hand.
Peloris sprayed a green poisonous mist that caused all the enemies to fall straight to the ground, foaming at the mouth and losing their vitality.
Shadow blasted a wall open with a punch, and the Boss of Spades stepped on the stone bricks.
The Boss of Spades turned his head:
"It's safe. ”
Peloris ripped off the metal muzzle and smiled happily:
"You're here to save me!"
The Boss of Spades nodded, pointing to the clear sky again:
"It's mainly due to Hara, and it's also her insistence on saving you. ”
Peloris smiled even more happily:
"And where is Hola now?"
Spade boss says:
"She should be out by now, we say it's okay ......"
The voice of the Boss of Spades disappeared.
The bald man looked at the smile on Peloris's face, and at first glance there seemed to be nothing strange, but as the two talked, he felt more and more the smile on Peloris's face......
It's weird.
