Chapter 0800: The Great God Who Rides a Red Horse
Night fell early, the icy wind was blowing, and large snowflakes were flying all over the sky. The corpses that were abandoned in the mountains and forests will eventually be covered, and the living will continue.
Arthur woke up slowly, and he saw the dark roof and the fireplace burning. There was a strange smell in the cabin, very much like the smell of perfume on a woman's body, but he didn't see any perfume bottles, let alone any women.
He propped himself up with his hands, and he tried to get up from the humble little bed, but before he could finish getting up, he fell down again. His head is groggy, as if he is drunk, he is lightheaded, his reflexes are slow, and he also has double vision.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to sober himself up, but he had to be unconscious, and the feeling of drowsiness became stronger and stronger. But even in such a bad state, he remembered what had happened. He received a communication from Giovanna and led people to capture Charleigh, and then encountered an ambush from Charleigh's men in the forest, killing everyone except him.
"Damn, that guy has been cheating on me from the beginning! he's dead!" a wave of hatred welled up in his heart, and he shook his head vigorously. But he found that his brain began to disobey, and the images he had just recalled became blurry, and some inexplicable images appeared in his brain again, and he saw Jesus crucified, and then he saw the Knight of the Apocalypse on a red horse......
Suddenly, the sound of a horse panting outside the door.
The door to the cabin suddenly opened, and a bright light shone in through the doorway. It was accompanied by the sound of cold weapons colliding and warriors roaring. It gives the impression that behind the bright light is a battlefield, and someone is fighting in that battlefield.
"Defend the faith, aid the suffering!" Someone spoke.
Arthur subconsciously recited: "Defend the faith, help the suffering!" His hand wanted to be raised and draw a cross, but unfortunately his body did not have the slightest strength, and he couldn't even do such a simple action as raising his hand.
In the scorching glare of light, there was the voice of someone talking.
"Look, that's a knight on a red horse!"
"He's like a flame in the wind!"
"He entered the holy city of Jerusalem!"
"Who is he chasing? I can't see it!"
"His armor is gone!"
A voice speaking in Italian, looking messy and nervous.
Arthur wanted to get up and take a look, but he couldn't. At this moment, a person came out of the scorching bright light, he was tall, almost two and a half meters tall. In his hand he held a large sword, which was at least a man tall, like a tree. He wore a very strange robe, which seemed to be sewn from a single sheet, and looked very large.
The big sword and big clothes, the person who came out of the former light gave people the strongest feeling that it was big, so big that it was beyond imagination, so big that it made people feel that he was the legendary Titan Giant Clan.
The giant with the great sword seemed to want to enter the hut, but the door of the hut was too small for him to enter unless he removed it.
Arthur looked at the giant in the doorway, he vaguely saw a red mass behind the giant, he thought it was a horse, and he thought it was a flame. In fact, this did not prevent him from connecting the giant in front of him with the horseman of the Apocalypse, who rode a red horse, a symbol of war and destruction, among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, because of the voices he had just heard talking in Italian, as well as his huge sword and the red war horse behind him.
Seeing the Knights of the Apocalypse is undoubtedly a miracle for a Catholic.
Arthur struggled to get out of bed again, and then bowed to the Red Horse's Apocalypse Knight. However, even in front of the Apocalypse Knight, he still didn't have the slightest strength.
"You sinner!" The Knight of the Apocalypse on a red horse suddenly spoke, in standard Italian, and his voice was surprisingly loud, "The devil has destroyed your kingdom, I fought for you, I lost my armor and cannot return to the Temple of Heaven." It's been almost a thousand years, when will you return my armor to me? I've lost patience!"
"O God!" exclaimed Arthur, "I am your devout believer, and I am your most faithful servant." We've been looking for your Warframe, and we're only one last piece away. β
"Where did you put my armor?" the voice of the Knight of the Apocalypse on the red horse was majestic.
"Malta Island, Holy Palace. β
"How can I get my Warframe back?"
"Angelio's eyes and keys. β
"Why is there still one last piece of my armor?"
Arthur said excitedly, "We've been looking for pieces of Warframe, and we've found one piece after another of Warframe over the ages. We've put it together, and now we're just missing the last piece. He was in the hands of a Chinese, a vile heretic! He had killed our knights and broken our agreement. God, if you can help me capture him, I will be able to get the last piece, and I will return the full armor!"
"Do you want to kill him?"
"Yes, I'm going to kill him. β
"I will seize him, I will kill him with my own hands and destroy his kingdom. But now you have to tell me, where is your holy palace on the island of Malta?"
"Oh my God! it is in the cross mountain by the sea, and the holy palace is in that mountain. The sacred palace built by our ancestors is used to store your armor and supplies for the restoration of the kingdom. β
The Knights Hospitaller was founded on the island of Malta and later defeated by the Turks, but until then the island was indeed the territory of the Knights Hospitaller. It was easy for the Knights Hospitaller to build some secret structure on the island of Malta. In fact, there are still many traces of the reign of the Knights Hospitallers on the island of Malta to this day, and almost all of those places have become tourist attractions on the island of Malta.
"How many men have you sent to defend the Sacred Palace and my Warframe?"
"Ten squads of knights, a hundred knights, ten paladins. They are all the strongest warriors, the most loyal servants of the gods. My God, if you come before them, they will bow down to you. And if the enemy invades, they will shatter the enemy's body. β
The Knight of the Apocalypse, who rode the red horse, was silent for a moment, and then said, "You are loyal, my slave. As a reward, I have opened your way to heaven. Go to Heaven, my slave. β
"My God, I haven't gotten the last piece of armor for you, I can't go to heaven yet, let me get the last piece for you and let me go to heaven. β
"No, I'll get it myself. I've opened the way for you to heaven, hit the road. β
"Where is the road, O my God, and how shall I go there?"
The Knight of the Apocalypse, riding on a red horse, suddenly pulled out a pistol, and the muzzle of the gun was aimed at Arthur's head.
"My God, do you use guns too?" said Arthur in surprise.
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, a gunshot rang out from the pistol, and a bullet smashed into his head.
This is the way to heaven. It's easy to go up, just know you.
The glare-glow of the scorching eyes was gone.
The giant standing at the door of the cabin had suddenly become shorter, and if Arthur were still alive, he would have seen that the Knight of the Apocalypse on the red horse he worshipped was actually Charlei standing on a bench. And the red horses behind him were not red horses, but a wooden frame made in the shape of a horse, draped in a layer of red cloth.
Such a clumsy performance is not easy to fool even a child, but it is not a problem to fool a delirious fanatical believer.
"He's dead. Kyoko Tsukino stepped out from behind the wall of the cabin. Behind her were Yelena, Angumi Khan, Sayim, Erdemutu, and Arecio. The voices of the Crusaders just now came out of their mouths.
"I don't want to kill him, but he must die. Xia Lei said.
Arthur was the only one who knew that it was the Zodiac team that had killed the thirty elites of the Knights Hospitaller, and his life was a huge hidden danger.
"What's next?" said Yelena's voice.
Xia Lei said, "You dispose of his body, and I'll go to the cabin by the lake." β
"Boss. Erdemutu said worriedly: "Although you helped those four women solve their troubles, they are always members of the Knights Hospitaller, and they are all fanatical believers, and it is hard to guarantee that they will not betray you for the sake of faith again." If you go over there now, it's actually very dangerous. β
Xia Lei smiled, "I've thought about this for a long time, and I wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to believe that they are already my knights. β
"Then why are you going back?" asked Kyoko Tsukino.
"I have to go back, there must be an explanation for Arthur's death, and I can't let them suspect that I did it," said Charleigh. In a sense, you're dead, so you can't show up with me right now. β
"But if you go back alone, what if those mercenaries and armed men come against you?" said Sayim.
Xia Lei said: "You don't have to worry about that at all. Arthur is dead, and the Knights Hospitaller are almost dead, leaving the four women and a few armed men of the Knights Hospitaller, who don't threaten me at all. I was the one who gave the money, and the mercenaries and armed men preferred to listen to me than the four women. β
"And then?" asked Kyoko Tsukino.
"I'll retreat with those four women, and you don't show up for a while. Xia Lei looked at Yelena, "From now on, you are no longer my secretary, you have to go from the sun into the darkness until I finish what I have to do." β
Elena nodded.
"We'll see you in China. Charley said he left the cabin.
The members of the six zodiac teams watched Xia Lei gradually walk away in the snow.
"What do you say, Boss, is this trying to do?" Arecio broke the silence.
"I know you want to say he wants to soak four women. Yelena curled the corners of her mouth, "Many people think that the boss is a person, but I know that is not true. The Boss had never touched those four women, and all he did was to maintain a relationship with the Knights Hospitaller, and he was going to use the Knights Hospitaller against the FA organization. β
"Alright, don't guess what's going on in the boss's mind, he's the smartest guy I've ever met. If his mind was so easy to guess, then he wouldn't be our boss. What we have to do is very simple, dispose of the corpse and then go back to China. Erdemutu slapped his palms, "Work and work, who will carry the body out?"
The other five people looked at Erdemutu in unison.
Erdemutu was stunned on the spot, "Didn't you?
No one paid any attention to him.
