Chapter 16: Redemption and Choice
Shak was really desperate, and his consciousness began to be a little foggy as he watched the monster who could still make everyone fall into a coma after withstanding the onslaught of the Royal Knights and stabbing his body little by little with his sword. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I don't know why, Shak can suddenly feel that there is a kind of sadness in the monster's heart, a kind of sentimentality that is hidden deeply.
At this time, a cold and calm voice was heard: "If you want to live, you have to kill, and if you want to save others, you have to kill people." ”
A thin young man walked through the passage where he had escaped, and Shak's eyes were blurred and he couldn't see the person clearly.
"What if you want to die, but you can never die? Killing you is a kind of redemption for you. The boy stopped a few meters away from the monster and Shak.
The monster suddenly screamed, a kind of sorrow, a kind of first time to be understood, to release the long-hidden sadness in his heart.
"If that's what you want, then I'll end your fate." The young man suddenly said softly.
"Come on, the opponent you can't cope with with all your strength is here, what are you waiting for?" The boy picked up a knight's sword on the ground with his foot and pointed at the monster.
The monster pulled out the sword that pierced Shak's body, but fortunately, the sword did not penetrate deeply, and Shak hurriedly used his qi to condense the wound to prevent himself from dying from excessive blood loss so quickly.
The monster screamed and rushed at the boy in a reckless manner. The boy didn't seem to move, but the sword that was pointing at the monster slowly drooped.
Suddenly, the monster didn't know if it was excitement or what, and let out a laugh. The monster's sword-gripping hand was severed alive.
The neat incision is like a work of art produced by the precise work of a machine.
Xia Ke knew that with his eyesight, there was no way to see anything, so Xia Ke gritted his teeth and dispersed the qi condensed in the wound, and felt the fight between the two with his qi. Shak, who was already on the verge of death, now doing this, he knew that his actions would lead to his life being irretrievable, but Shaq still wanted to witness the end of this battle.
"Do your best, don't have any regrets, I'll help you out." The boy's tone was still gentle, giving people an instinct, or instinctively willing to believe his words.
Shak sensed that the monster seemed to have the same thoughts as himself, and suddenly, the monster rushed towards the boy at a faster speed than before.
However, at the moment of contact with the young man, how many times did the sword in the young man's hand swing, Xia Ke had obviously sensed the young man's movements with qi, however, he couldn't know how many times the young man's sword was swung. At last, the boy's sword flew out.
The boy stretched out his hand to hug the monster, Shak thought it was his own delusion, but Shak clearly felt the monster.
Obviously, the monster can only be captured with the naked eye, but at the moment of contact with the boy, Xia Ke finally felt the monster's feelings with his breath.
In that moment, the monster left a tear of joy. However, that tear seemed to drip into Shak's heart, and Shak seemed to feel the sorrow of the monster.
Now, being able to die seems to be the hope of the monster.
Meet the only person in your life who can understand you, and prove to yourself that you are not just a machine, not just a monster.
It is an existence with feelings and hearts. Person? Monster? Demon? I don't care what it is.
The monster's tears made Shak suddenly understand the sorrow of the monster. However, what about the royal knights? Killing for the sake of killing? Or did they already understand the monster's heart?
And then there's this mysterious boy who can understand the monster's heart and has enough strength to put an end to the monster's suffering.
However, does he have to die? Shak's consciousness gradually blurred, but Shak seemed to touch the edge of the truth that he had been holding on to, pursuing.
Death is not terrible, and Shak is not afraid of death, Shak does not know that the mysterious boy has already left with the body of the monster.
Shak's eyes gradually lost their moisture and became dry, but their eyes were still firm, and his face showed joy and happiness, forever fixed in this moment.
He always remembered that when he chose to participate in the experiment, he was a guardian knight in gray armor who was a staunch believer.
He didn't know what kind of monster he was transformed into, but there was no pain, all the wounds could heal quickly, and his body would become stronger and stronger.
But he felt that he had the power, the power to protect everyone's smiles and happiness, and the power to carry out his beliefs.
However, is this really the case?
Gradually, he realized that this endless reinforcement was only exchanged for a strange gaze in the end.
No one thought of him as a knight, and no one told him that he was no longer him. The demon's body, the resurrective power bestowed by the Holy Emblem beyond the norm.
There is also the ability to imitate, the combat instinct, and the information of different Holy Emblems.
He doubted his own existence, but he existed to fight the demons? Or did it exist to fight the Royal Knights?
However, the only thing left is his soul and the ability to think, and he can't completely dominate his body at all. Each time, it was only to complete the mission. With the lives and resentments of countless people he once swore to protect, he wrote one bloody story after another.
He believed, and hoped for, that the Royal Knights would kill him. However, the power of the royal knights is truly incredible.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't touch the royal knight at all, however, the defense of his body also caused the royal knight to be completely helpless.
He was sure that both the royal knights and the young men felt his heart.
The moment the young man's blade landed on his body accurately, he knew the young man's mind.
In the end, the combined forces of several Holy Emblems, for some reason, regained control of themselves. At the same time, it is a pity that the body's defenses cannot be broken at all.
His spirit collapsed, he did collapse, and he didn't know why, just like the soul that had been trapped in this body wanted to vent the resentment in his heart immediately after mastering this body.
If that person hadn't appeared, perhaps, he would have killed everyone present.
That person has a very warm feeling, and seems to have a power that can make people believe from the heart.
He picked up the sword and pointed it at himself, giving himself a sense that his life was threatened.
However, it was his act of picking up the sword that made him feel understood.
That person can feel the depths of his own heart. Although no one admits it, he is indeed a knight. The knight's sword is an extension of itself.
That man, gave him the best ending, so that he could meet his end as a knight.
The heartbeat that has long disappeared, just in the last moment, did you hear it? The beating of the heart.
He did not leave a name, because it was not necessary. But at the end of his life, he left the last tears. It is an emotion that has long been forgotten, and it can cleanse the resentment in the heart, and it is an emotion called moving.
The ruins had collapsed to the point where it was impossible to explore any more, and even the slightest fluctuation could collapse completely, so everyone chose to quit the ruins.
"Well, I didn't expect all the money to be in my hands to fly......" Richter complained when he got home.
"Yes, your knife is broken, and it will cost a lot of money to forge it again." Zuston smiled wryly, "However, you should give me an explanation too, right?" ”
"What else is there to explain? I've encountered a pervert. Russ casually fiddled with the shattered mirror that had been brought out of the ruins.
"Can you be more perverted than you?" Zuston gave Zuston a blank look.
"It's more beastly than Mu You." Russ replied casually.
"That's more brute than you." Mu You squinted at Russ with a helpless face.
"Stop talking this nonsense, let's think about whether we should go to the temple first. And then go to the cathedral? Aletus slapped the table.
Mu You didn't say anything about encountering Yakumo Xihong in the ruins and other things, and his intuition made Mu You think that this matter was not so simple.
"Then please go, my share of the money will be given to you." Russ and Richter both raised their hands at the same time and said lazily.
"I don't think it would make much sense even if you went." Zuston thought for a moment and said, "According to what you said, you went to five people, and the temple went to five people, and I guess there can't be 20 people in the cathedral?" ”
"What do you mean?" Aleus hurriedly asked.
"I guess it's only right to have five places at most, and I'm counting the cathedral responsible for maintaining the normal operation of the world, so there can't be such an obvious violation." Zuston rolled his eyes and said slowly: "As far as I guessed that the cathedral also entered the 5 people, that is only half of the people, at least half of the people, that is to say, there are at least three parties or even more existences. It shouldn't make much sense just to go over there. ”
"I agree with Zuston." Mu You touched his chin and said in a low voice: "Moreover, I think everyone's purpose is the same, and no one knows the exact purpose, so even if we don't go to each other, the other party should have some actions." With that, Mu You took out two pieces from his pocket.
Putting the pieces into the frame, it was indeed two pieces of the broken mirror.
"I stole this from inside, and I guess this mirror should be something very important." Mu You lied, these two pieces were obtained by Yakumo Xihong from the knights of the cathedral and Yakumo Xihong's own, and handed them to Mu You just before he was about to leave.
Although Yakumo Xihong did not explain the meaning of the mirror, she told Mu You that everyone came here for this.
What can make Yakumo Xihong so cautious and important, Mu You thinks this is a sufficient reason.
"So what are we going to do?" Arius looked at the broken mirror and said.
"Put it online." Everyone looked at each other, and Russ sneered, "Let them bump into each other on their own." ”
