Section 507: Going Together II.
"Marceau has reached the ground. Jumping from the airship to the rooftop, Marceau adjusted the earphones on his ears - this new small earphone is designed for people with completely different ear canals, such as cat people, avoiding the embarrassing situation of cat people who can only use hanging when using ordinary headphones.
"The flames have reached the ground. Flame who jumped to the other side of the roof stood up, she pulled out a one-handed short pipe ****** and a short sword from her waist, in the next battle, the room, corridor and basement will be the main location of the battle, in the case of the inconvenience of wielding long weapons, short sword and one-handed firearms are the best choice, so she pulled out the short sword and the rear loading large-caliber ******, Marceau turned on the dim vision, the battle boat in the sky has confirmed the location of the small house through a high-explosive bomb- High-explosive shells will be dropped across the road from their location, blasting another house into the sky and marking Marceau.
The kitten and the cat girl kept jumping from rooftop to rooftop, and the rapid movement made it possible for the lackeys to wander around Marceau, but their attention was obviously attracted by the battle between the battle boats and the gargoyles in the sky - the battle boats attracted the gargoyles outside the north of the city, so that even if there was battle damage, even the pilots would be lost, and as for Marceau and Flame - the road ahead was very long, and after the inspection was completed, it was enough to choose to retreat and then find time to release the flares.
"Seeing the ruins, it looks like the charge is quite large. Standing on the roof of the three-story building, looking at the ruins not far ahead, Flame turned his head to look at Marceau: "Lady first?"
"No, no, no, in the face of danger, of course, let the men come first. Marceau jumped off the building, and the kitten and the cat girl walked through the alley, and on the ruins were a few guys in robes picking up something, as if something or someone had been buried. With his back to the alley, when the last guy turned around because he smelled bloody rust, Marceau's throwing axe hit him in the head, and the guy rolled down the rubble without saying a word.
Flame ran over and pulled the axe off the corpse, tossed it back to Marceau, and dragged the corpse down the street not far from the ruins. Pierce a wooden board into the wound and disguise it as an unlucky bastard who died from a fragment kill from the explosion.
Leaving the corpse, Flame came behind Marceau, who was standing in the doorway, pushed the door open with the short sword in his hand, and then stabbed the long sword inside the door to pierce a sideways body between himself, while the left hand holding the gun used the body of the rear-mounted large-caliber ****** to push away the long sword, so as not to be hit by the flame behind him - but he didn't notice that when he turned sideways, Flame was already following sideways. At the same time, the musket held in his left hand had passed over Marceau's left shoulder, but there was no need to shoot, the short sword in the kitten's right hand penetrated through the door, directly penetrating the murderer's chest, and the lungs were pierced enough to be fatal, the murderer could not even scream and fell, the kitten crouched, and the tail rolled out of the bag behind him a jar. Unplugged the insurance and dropped it into the house.
The next second. With a muffled explosion, there was a continuous sneezing sound in the room, so the cat cub was the first to enter the door, first throwing an axe at the human behind the sofa, and the living cultist, who was completely killed by the pepper, could not control himself at all, so he was directly beheaded by the axe.
Took a step inside. Marceau used the guard on his left forearm to block the tearful halfling who was crying and pounced on him, Marceau pulled out his dagger and stabbed him in the chest, pushing away the unlucky bastard who had begun to count down to his life, pulling out the dagger from the human corpse at his feet, and the target in his left hand, the dwarf, had fallen to the ground with the tail of the crossbow on his forehead. So he changed his target, and a sleeve arrow was nailed into the head of the woman who couldn't stop sneezing, and this time the human woman, who would never be bothered by sneezing again, fell to the floor.
"Empty. The catgirl who snatched the last head of the kitten cub in front of her withdrew her attention from the elf who was falling against the wall, and the latter had a throwing axe on his head, which Flame used uninvited, and of course Marceau had always let such behavior go.
After searching the bodies, Marceau regretfully confirmed that these guys must be the kind of cannon fodder cultists, and maybe they came to this house because of the good environment - other places have been looted long ago, at least pots and bowls and other things are available here.
Yan looked at the cauldron in front of the stove, and then used the spoon in the bowl to fish out a long bone from the bottom of the pot: "Bet, their recipes are really extensive. ”
"After all, these are crazy people, aren't they, to believe in such a disgusting existence, their minds have already collapsed. Quietly holding down the spoon grip on Flame's hand, which was still about to go on a big adventure, Flame smiled and let go of his hand, so the kitten let go of his hand as well.
"But it's really sad. ”
"yes, really a very pathetic bunch of guys. Marceau shook his head: "These lackeys of the evil gods, followers of the mad gods, don't they want to think about following a chaotic and evil god...... Will there be any happy ending?"
"yes, a bunch of lunatics. Flame looked at the corpse lying on the ground, and he also felt a little empathy.
Dealing with the problems upstairs, Marceau found the steps leading to the basement, and down the stone steps, the kitten and the cat girl finally saw the empty altar.
"What are we going to say? Are we going to tell Lady Lily...... Is our goal gone?" Flame couldn't help but complain, and then looked at Marceau's motionless appearance: "Marceau, what's wrong with you?"
"Hmm...... I think I'm seeing the golden dots of light I saw again. Marceau said as he walked towards the golden point of light, and the kitten reached out and touched the point of light, and then the same image of golden points of light appeared in front of Marceau's eyes, the ...... The figure that appeared to be his father stood in front of the altar, and it seemed to be touching the node.
There was no sound, and when he circled to the front of the figure, still with a hood covering his face, Marceau finally took a picture of what was happening in front of him, and then shared it with Flame: "Maybe it's my father." ”
"Your father...... Can't see the face at all. ”
"Yes, I bypassed, but I couldn't see the face at all, my father was controlled by Nurgle during the Warhammer Century...... Have you heard of it?"
"No, I'm completely unfamiliar with the chronicles of Warhammer Century, but I can help you ask, but don't be too confident in the answer, after all, Warhammer Age is also a giant online game, and because of the theme, it is very popular with cats of all sizes, so it is said that many kitten people have had the experience of being controlled. ”
"I know. In the face of Flame's answer, Marceau naturally understood the reason, it was good that the cat girl could help herself ask, and because the time would be relatively long, maybe even the person concerned had already swept this memory out of his mind, all this ...... Maybe there won't be an answer at all.
But at least this time, Marceau has an answer to wait...... No, maybe it would be better to explain all this with the truth, because Marceau really wanted to know if he was going to be the fatherless soul for the rest of his life...... It's not to get any family background, it's really just to know if the father knows himself or not, and whether his children have always wanted such an answer.
"Let's go. With Marceau's deep sigh, the kitten walked up with the cat girl.
Back on the first floor, Marceau unexpectedly noticed a new golden point of light in the center of the living room: "Flame, there is a new point of light." ”
"Well, I'm still blind, you can touch it, and then explain it to me. Flame's tone was a little helpless.
So Marceau came into contact with the golden light again, and this time, Marceau found that his father's phantom was standing at the gate, it was facing him, and the laughter of his soul sounded in Marceau's mind.
'I know, you will come to me, like I know that you are my heir, you have my blood in your veins, how about it, do you think that this world is too peaceful, I have cat ears, you also have it, we should be the masters of fate, just like ......'" It's like you are not the master of fate at all, my father. After speaking, Marceau sent the video to Yan, and the cat girl glanced at it and shook her head: "I still can't see my face, this guy is really mysterious, speaking of which, Marceau, how do you know that there was an illusion trap just now, and this guy wants to control you." ”
"Because the cat people have never been the masters of fate, my grandmother told me that we cat people have been artificial beings concocted by another race from the beginning, with only a short and pitiful lifespan, struggling desperately on the planet where civilization was cut off after the nuclear war...... All this is worth the price of any kitten man's freedom, we are the most loyal servants of the Lonersey family, there will be no change in the last thousand years, there will be no change in this thousand years, not even the next thousand years. ”
Speaking of this, Marceau's hand was held tightly by the flame's outstretched hand: "That's right, maybe there will be madmen and psychopaths who will say that we are servile, that we are born to be slaves, so we have such thoughts, but they have not thought about what it means to be grateful, such kindness, every cat man of Pavlin and Tievrin can only pay with their lives, and pay with their lives, we are the most loyal guards of the Lonshi family, we will not betray in the name of freedom, we are not the kind of evil race that wields a butcher's knife at the descendants of our benefactors." Speaking of this in one breath, Flame looked at Marceau with a satisfied smile: "Marceau, you are indeed a real kitten man." ”
"I just think that the world is big, the truth is the greatest, and I don't want to be a person of bad virtue. After Marceau finished speaking, he suddenly straightened his ears: "There seems to be something outside?"
After a few seconds of silence, Flame picked up the topic: "The footsteps seem to be a little too spaced, and the steps are very heavy, it's a big guy." ”
"It's coming. Marceau said as he led the flame upstairs, "Go to the rooftop, what do you think?" ”
"Well, let's take a look at what that thing is. "There is no disagreement with this flame. (To be continued.) )
