The moon was beautiful tonight, the round moon hung high in the night sky, and the many small stars around it were shining brightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The full moon sprinkled the cold moonlight, the clear light of the moonlight shone on the earth, and the beautiful moonlight, people who had been busy all day went out of the house to enjoy this comfortable moment together, and there were bursts of hearty laughter from time to time in the crowd.

However, such a night still could not hide the bloody killing.

At the door of an unnamed temple in the mountain mystery, two figures pushed open the door of the temple.

"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Charles, seated in the middle of the temple's ashram, opened his closed eyes, their eagle-sharp and bright eyes staring at Brand as he walked in, and Tazmi was deliberately ignored by him.

Brand also seemed to have noticed something, stopped his pace and continued to move forward, turned his head slightly and whispered a few words to Tazmi beside him.

"Tazmi, you're here to watch, and the rest is for the two of us. Also, if you can, please block the red pupils. ”

“······ I see, big brother. ”

Tazmi nodded, then took a few steps back.

"I'm here, don't you want to say something? Master! ”

Brand said in a low voice, and at the same time, his body began to exude an astonishing murderous aura.

"Say what? Do you want to ask if the old decay is Meixue? Is there a problem? Or are you willing to surrender? ”

Not caring at all about the murderous aura released by Brand, Charles still looked light-hearted, and said in a divine manner.

"That's right, I want to know why you are the way you are, master."

Originally, Brand was still entangled in his heart, whether Charles had any last resort, but after answering the rhetorical question just now, Brand knew that Charles acted according to his own will.

"Okay, sit down and talk slowly, besides, would you like to have a drink with me?"

Charles, who did not refer to himself as 'old', motioned for Brand to sit in front of him with his hand, and then opened the cap of the bottle jar beside him, and poured the wine into two large bowls.

Without the slightest hesitation, Brand strode up to Charles, sat down cross-legged, took the wine bowl and drank it all, not worrying about whether Charles would mix the wine with drugs.

Then, Brand handed the finished bowl to Charles, which made Charles smile wryly.

"What a guy who doesn't know how to be reserved at all."

Charles shook his head, then picked up the jar and poured another bowl into Brand's bowl.

And this time, Brand, who picked up the wine bowl, did not drink it all as before, but raised the wine bowl, and then looked directly at Charles.

Charles smiled at this, picked up his wine bowl and Bland's wine bowl and collided with each other, and the two of them drank the same thing.

If, just looking at the scene at this moment, perhaps no one can think that these two people are enemies of life and death.

"I, ah, have been adopted by the Empire since I was a child, as a soldier of the Empire. For as long as I can remember, my life has been a constant killing and training, and I don't know how many imperial rebels and aliens have died at my hands, so to speak, I really came out of the pile of dead people. ”

Charles told reminiscingly, and Brand didn't interrupt, just listened quietly, both of them silently doing what they should have done.

"I don't resent the Empire, after all, for me, who has never even seen the faces of my biological parents, the Empire that adopts me and keeps myself alive is the real destination. Therefore, it is understandable to repay the empire with murder. ”

"As I get older, my killing skills and force become more and more powerful, and with the merit of constantly killing people, I have also become the chief instructor of martial arts in the empire, and I have been valued by Emperor Xian, rewarded the emperor with the imperial tool [Evil Ghost Haunting], and followed the former imperial general to fight in the east and west, it was really a crazy and beautiful time."

Charles, who was telling, closed his eyes, recalling the hideous but unusually beautiful years of his youth, and his face couldn't help but show joy.

"Until more than 20 years ago, I had a fight with that adult (ps: referring to Chen Xiaoyao), ah, what a defeat, you must know that for a long time later, I didn't even have the courage to hold a sword."

"Later, the Lord disappeared without a trace, the First Emperor died, and I was forced to retire because of my age, and I handed over the Imperial Tool to you, who is my most proud disciple, Brand."

Charles said and pointed at Brand, who nodded.

"And you didn't live up to my expectations, and you broke out of the name of '100 people beheaded' in the army. It's a pity, when I was expecting you to become an imperial general, you suddenly disappeared, and it wasn't until recent years that I learned from those so-called revolutionary, life, and imperial wanted notices that you actually changed your career to become a killer. ”

Charles sighed, and at the same time his tone was full of mockery.

And Brand still didn't have any rebuttal, still silently drinking.

"Sorry, a little off topic. Don't you really want to know why I'm the way I am, and it all started after I was forced to retire. After being forced to retire, I suddenly found myself so empty and lost at home. Smoking, drinking, gambling, gambling, women, even smoking, drugs, products, whatever you do... No matter what I do, I feel so boring, my heart is so empty, and I don't feel the emptiness of being alive at all. ”

"In order not to let myself continue to live like this walking dead, I started to travel and see all kinds of new things around the world. However, it was all in vain, and none of this could make up for the emptiness in my heart. ”

"Until one day, when I was traveling everywhere, I was ambushed by a group of robbers, and out of self-preservation, I killed them with my sword, and at that moment, I felt it! I felt the feeling that my heart was filled again, yes, looking at the people who were killed by myself, looking at the frightened eyes of those people, my heart was actually so full, hahahahahahaha ”

Charles laughed wildly, his face full of genuine joy.

Brand had a gloomy look on his face, he didn't expect things to be like this, Charles, who grew up killing people since he was a child, has carved the habit of killing into his bones, for Charles, killing has become a necessary habit for ordinary people to eat and drink.

In his career as a soldier, he had seen many soldiers like this, when others were afraid to kill, they enjoyed killing, and even when they rose up, even relatives and friends would be killed.

I have to say that this is a terrible, but very sad thing. (ps: The real thing, some veterans are often inseparable from killing after excessive killing, even if they receive psychological counseling, this kind of person can only live on the battlefield, or be killed.) ）

Moreover, Brand also asked himself about himself, and found that he actually vaguely had a tendency to kill people.

Maybe I'll be like that." ’

Brand was startled by the sudden thought that popped into his mind.

"That's right, I can't do without killing people completely, and killing is already a necessity for me, just like people want to drink water and eat. Hahahaha, can I no longer call it a 'human'? Or should I say I'm a 'monster'! ”

Charles asked Brand, and at the same time, his face was full of enjoyment, as if the name 'monster' would make him feel more joy for him.

Charles looked Brand up and down, and then gave a look that was both strangely expectant, but also mocking.

"I understood why my heart was empty, and I started a national journey of killing people while traveling, and, on the way, I met three other old people who were also completely inseparable from killing, and then we created the 'Meixue Club', and together we killed while traveling, and finally until recently, I came to the imperial capital, and this is what I have encountered over the years."

With that, Charles drank the rest of the wine in the bowl and put down his glass.

“······ The last question is why even innocent children should be killed. ”

Brand, who was not incomprehensible, also drank the last bowl, and, only Brand knew, his last question was a choice, a choice about how to act next.

"Whether it is a man or a woman, whether it is old or young, whether it is rich or poor, whether it is a good person or a bad person, in my opinion, it is all life, and it is all something that can be killed."

Charles threw the empty wine jar and wine bowl in his hand behind him, and in front of Brand, he picked up an unsheathed Tang knife in his hand, thinking that he also knew that there would be a fight afterward.

“········ It's sad, you can't really call it a 'human', after all, only monsters fit into that view. ”

Brand stood up and took out the Great Sword-shaped Imperial Tool Demon Haunt from the sword box behind him.

"I have a deep understanding, but understanding does not mean recognition······· Master Charles, as a disciple, I only know one cure that has been circulated in the army······· I'll kill you with my own hands! ”

"Oh? I thought you were going to kill me in some 'righteous' tone, or defeat me and redeem me, but that seems reasonable. ”

Charles was a little surprised, but he didn't feel like he expected.

"Justice, if that kind of thing is used to kill people, it will only make me sick, I am a killer, killing people is evil, whether I kill a person who is a heinous crime, it is the same as killing people, there is no justice at all! The word "justice" is not something that can be said casually, but should be quietly stored in your heart! ”

Brand clenched his sword and pointed it at Charles.

"There is no such thing as good and evil, after all, this kind of thing is just something that is determined by people. What I've done, no, I should say, all we have done at Night·raid is to put an end to this hellish world where ghosts are rampant! To end this person's life is to watch others die, and he can only recall the past, but he cannot look forward to the future world! ”

Listening to Brand's words, Charles suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Hahaha, people, the last thing you know is yourself. Especially your own heart, Brand your heart······ Do you really understand? Although he keeps saying that there is no justice and evil, he still chooses the ridiculous path of justice called 'hero', driven by a sense of justice and compassion, pursues without regard for any consequences, and chooses to carry everything himself in order not to let others be harmed. Brand, I have a deep interest in your child-like naïve character. But do you know that your 'righteous behavior' will not get even the slightest reward in the end, and even, in the end, what awaits you is only hell! ”

"So, can you, who are so weak, really be able to defeat me?!"

Charles looked at Brand bloodthirsty, he couldn't hold it anymore.

"It's ridiculous that you're right, in this sad age when patience and self-protection have become a kind of strength, if you are indifferent in the face of such hell, it is better for the world to be destroyed. Each of us at NightRaid has experienced a variety of pains, so we can understand what happiness is! So, don't ——confuse our gentleness with weakness with weakness for those who have experienced pain! ”

Brand roared, and the phantom of a huge armored dinosaur suddenly appeared behind him.

"Roar!"

The phantom let out a dragon's roar, and then, the huge phantom stretched out its hands, clenched and attached to Brand's body as if they were entangled, and then, a set of white operational armor suddenly covered Brand's body.

This is Brand's Imperial Armor [Demon Haunting Operation Armor], a white armor that makes the whole body armor armed, and it is an armor-type imperial tool known for its super defensive power, which can greatly improve physical ability and can be transparent, but it is extremely burdensome to the equipment holder, and ordinary people will die if they wear it.

However, for Brand, who has been tempered for a long time, it is a simple matter.

Brand, who was wearing [Demon-Haunted], made a move of his right hand, and a flash of light flashed, and then an Overlord Gun with a huge red spear head appeared, which was the attached weapon of the Emperor's [Demon-Haunted Operation Armor] - [Red-backed Shrike].

It is a weapon that can only be used if the physical fitness can afford to bear the [Demon Haunting] and use it to a certain extent!

Brand, wielding a red-backed shrike, rushed at Charles as a left-to-right diagonal downward attack. There is no doubt that if an ordinary person is hit by Brand, who has great strange power at the moment, it must be cut in two.

Is Charles an ordinary person, though?

This is clearly not.

Therefore, for Brand's blow, Charles showed a battlelike smile, and the unsheathed sword in his hand was just an easy block.

Poop!

Rumble!

The moment the sword and the spear exchanged each other, there was a piercing sound when the metal collided.

Moreover, in the next second, the dojo with a radius of about one meter around Charles's feet quickly cracked and sinted.

This is because Charles transferred the terrifying power of the sword to the dojo under his feet through the block just now, after all, if it was really hard, Charles would not be able to defeat Brand at all.

"Hahahaha, [Demon-haunted] is really nostalgic, and besides, being able to use you with [Demon-Haunted] to fight a life-and-death battle today really makes my blood boil!"

Almost frantically shouting about Charles, anyone can feel his madness.

However, the crazy Charles, his attacks were not messy at all, on the contrary, they became more and more ruthless, and the moves were all aimed at Brand's fatal point, and the speed of the attack was also extremely fast, only one second carried out more than a dozen attacks, at the same time, by the special skills and the ultra-high-speed sword, the extremely sharp arc sword qi brought by the surrounding dojo ground cut pieces of the ground around.

It's a combination of lightning and thunder!

This also made everyone who was watching silently on the side a little frightened, and full of fighting spirit! (PS: While Brand and Charles were drinking and chatting, Red Hitomi's group came to the door of the temple and watched silently with Tazmi.) ）

And Brand, who was still in the 'storm', was unable to give full play to the advantage of his weapon because he was attacked by Charles at close range, but Brand was not anxious, and still responded calmly and calmly.

As the saying goes, as the saying goes, one inch is long and one inch is strong, and one inch is short and one inch is dangerous.

Long and strong, sharp and sharp. Short and treacherous, hidden murder.

Since ancient times, the gun has been called the king of a hundred soldiers, and it is also known as the thief of a hundred soldiers.

The reason why the gun is called the king and the thief is because it is powerful in actual combat, fast in attack and defense, and full of changes, which often makes people unable to defend against it.

The advantage of the gun is that the length of the object and the speed of the dance, so that the attack is fast and agile, so it has become the most important weapon in the history of warfare, especially as the most important attack - the sting.

The stab is longitudinal, and because the contact area of the tip of the gun is small, the resistance to penetrate the object is also small, so when piercing into the internal organs of the human body, it is the most sinister and concise and efficient technique.

Killing is just a stab.

In addition, due to the length of the gun, the wider the attack range, the greater the attack power.

On the contrary, once attacked, the gun will not be able to move freely due to its length, and it will become constrained.

At this moment, Charles is like this, relying on the short advantage of Tang Dao's blade to attack at close range, so that Brand is always in a defensive and dodging posture.

The shorter the weapon in the hand, the closer it must be to the opponent before attacking. Relying on the advantage of short weapons, you can move faster and take more risks when engaging in combat.

Of course, the main meaning of the word "risk" in this risk is not that you have borne the danger, but that the way you fight, and you can quickly defeat the enemy to death by fighting for your life.

However, Brand can be said to be completely suppressed, and in the case of long-term loss, Brand's body was cut out of several bloody cuts.

You must know that Brand is wearing [Devil-Haunted], and his defense can be said to be very strong, while Charles's Tang knife is just an ordinary Tang knife, which can be called strong at most, but in Charles's hands, it is like a divine weapon.

'It was so easy to break the defense of [Devil Haunted], and it was really worthy of a man who had used a knife all his life and walked to the extreme of martial arts, and the sword was not old. ’

As an enemy, Brand also had to secretly sigh that people often have a series of problems such as the atrophy of their body muscles and the aging of internal organs in their bodies in old age, which limits the output of human strength, the explosiveness of muscles and the flexibility of the body.

However, Charles is different, whether it is strength or speed, he is more agile than when he was younger, and because of the continuous killing over the years, the shots are more spicy and tricky, plus Charles is still his own master, and he knows many of his moves.

It has to be said that such an enemy is especially tricky.

However, just as Brand was secretly thinking about how to get out of close combat, he suddenly saw the slightly curved curvature of the corners of Charles's mouth.

'Oh no, Master Charles is going to make a trick. ’

Brand, who also knew the roots, immediately cheered up the spirit, and what happened next was exactly what Brand expected.

I didn't see Charles put on any pose, he was just an ordinary slash, and the speed of wielding the Tang knife at this moment was at least five times more than before, there was no doubt that this speed even exceeded the red pupil's drawing and slashing, reaching a speed that even Brand couldn't see through his eyes.

Waist and abdomen! Chest! Nape!

In an instant, Charles seemed to be a doppelganger, turning into three people, in three different postures, each brandishing a Tang knife, and each slashing towards Brand's body!

(ps: I've been unlucky these days, and I've fallen into a terrible blind date hell, just these days, I've kissed five times in the next!) I'm going to die, I'm really going to die! ）

(PS: Plus, there's a blind date next!) Oh my God! 555555555555555）

(ps: In this era, it's too chaotic, get married the day before yesterday, and divorce the day after tomorrow.) If you don't do an appraisal, even the child can't be sure if it's really your own. can be sure that 100% of them are virgins, but there are only newborn baby girls, so marriage is the top priority, how can it be so sloppy. ）

(ps: However, it is nothing more than a cry, two troubles, and three hangings against the mother, and now he is a waste person [Ge You Paralysis].) (To be continued.) )
