Chapter 207: Hourglass of Destruction

For a while, the priest couldn't distinguish himself from the civilian in front of him, perhaps it was because he realized that this situation was wrong, and Yashu took action directly, and did not let the priest and the other party stalemate.

Ashur pulled out the azure stars in his cuffs, and without hesitation, he turned to the divine light shooting mode, and in the next second, two azure rays of light erupted from the muzzle of the gun, hitting the opponent's side with a scorching temperature.

Any rune shield has a limit to endurance, even the protection of the gods, and the same is true of these civilians, and the huge power contained in the divine light shot quickly broke through the range of the shield.

Two black smoke holes were carved out of the civilian's side, and the laser drilled out of the other without hindrance, piercing him in the crosshairs.

The civilian seemed to be unable to bear the damage, and he slowly let go of his hand and stepped back

However, just when everyone thought that the civilian was about to fall, he suddenly let out a heavy roar and lunged at the unprepared priest, and judging from his movements, it seemed that the injuries just now were not affected in the slightest

The priest's heart sank, he was very confident in Ashur's shooting, even if this civilian was not dead, he should have been destroyed by Ashur's main organs, and he was not far from death, so he also subconsciously relaxed his vigilance, but why could the other party launch such a ferocious counterattack?!

Just as the priest was about to suffer a big loss, a slender figure ghostly came behind the civilian.

Sofina's eyes were cold, and one of her arms quickly circled the civilian's neck, pinning him in place.

The civilian frantically resisted, but could not break free no matter what, and in desperation, he bit Sofina's wrist violently.

A scalp-numbing gnawing sound sounded, and Sofina's eyes lit up with a burst of evil fire, and with a low roar, she lifted the powerful civilian from the ground like a chicken, and slammed him to the ground.

Then, Sofina stomped on the civilian's chest, and her clenched fist smashed into the civilian's face like a hammer.

At first, the civilian was able to resist, but soon, his face was dented by Sofina's fist, and his entire head was smashed into flesh.

The remaining few people were also killed by the joint efforts of Han Dui, Shadow Moon and the others, and became immobile corpses.

Han Du wiped the blood from his body, walked to the priest, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you okay?" ”

The priest shook his head, stared intently at the civilian corpse on the ground, and did not speak.

"Han Dui, do you understand the power of runes?" Sofina suddenly lit a cigar and walked over.

Han Du looked at the corpses of civilians on the ground and said silently, "I know a lot." ”

Sofina spit out a smoke ring and said lightly: "Then you should know that runes can only bless inanimate instruments, and it is impossible to bless living bodies, right." ”

Han Du pursed his lips, and he said solemnly, "I thought so at first, but now you can also see that the things on these civilians are nothing other than runes, they are flesh and blood creatures. ”

"Creatures? Biologically speaking, a living thing is an individual with life. Sofina silently glanced at the civilians on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Dead things are not living things Han Dui, let me ask you a question, in essence, what is the difference between a corpse and a knife?" It's just that a corpse once had life, but a knife didn't, so you think that even after death, the corpse and the knife are different, but in addition to the different structures, what is the difference between them in terms of the definition of a living thing? ”

Han Dui stiffened when he heard this, and he said in disbelief, "No, don't you say it?"

"Yes" Sofina laughed coldly, she kicked the civilian corpse on the ground, and said: "If a creature is blessed by the power of runes, its own life system will be chaotic, but a corpse that has lost its metabolism is different, he is no longer a creature, but a 'knife' If it is right, these civilians are actually dead a long time ago, they are just 'instruments' driven by the power of runes"

"Stygian are you saying that Stygian killed these civilians and blessed their corpses with rune power, giving them greater power in order to strengthen their combat power?!" Han Duan couldn't believe his words, but at this time, it seemed that there was only one explanation left, otherwise, with the body of an ordinary civilian, how could he kill Jack instantly, how could he compete with the priest?!

What's more, this civilian also ate Ashur's divine light shot, and his actions were not affected in any way, which is simply impossible for normal humans

"And there is one more thing" Sofina's willow brows furrowed slightly, and she said in a cold voice, "I fought with these civilians just now, and I found that the strength of each civilian is different, and the civilian who killed Jack is a lot stronger than the other civilians!" ”

Han Du took over the conversation, and he said: "That is to say, after their corpses are blessed by the power of runes, the limit of the strength they show depends on the strength before they were born, it is really terrifying, these people are ordinary civilians, I didn't expect that after being made into rune equipment, they actually have such a strong combat power and so on."

Suddenly, Han Dui's eyes widened wider and wider, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't make a sound in horror.

"You've finally reacted." Sofina laughed coldly, and she said gloomily, "Stygian took away the corpse of the Mountain Splitter Axe King and the body of the King Kong Chief when she left yesterday, do you think she is here to bury them?" ”

Han Dui's mind seemed to sound with boundless thunder, no wonder Stygian took away the corpses of the Mountain Splitting Axe King and the King Kong Chief yesterday, it turned out that she had long known that the power of runes had this kind of use!

Ordinary civilians have such terrifying combat power after being "resurrected", how terrifying will they be after the resurrection of the Mountain Splitting Axe King and the King Kong Chieftain, who are already strong warriors?! Han Du didn't know, and he didn't dare to think about it

Sofina continued: "Although I believe that this kind of rune blessing is not simple, it is certainly not difficult for a rune master like Stylus, maybe she still has a way to mass produce it!" Anyway, at least I don't believe she's been a rune warrior for more than ten hours last night. ”

As if to confirm Sofina's words, the priest's communicator rang rapidly.

After the priest connected, the anxious voice of the squad commander came from the other end of the communicator: "Deputy Commander! We are under attack by civilians! Something is not right, these are not ordinary civilians! They have the blessing of an unknown force, and our advance has been blocked by Yan zhòng! ”

One by one, the scattered troops began to report to the priest what had happened, although the strength of these rune warriors and the strength of their lifetime, but for ordinary humans, they could not be defeated lightly! Not to mention that they also have rune shields on their bodies that can absorb a lot of firepower.

I don't know if it's because the lucky named Lucky left, but today, Lady Luck doesn't seem to favor the Order and the Polar Black Wolf.

Just as the priest was frowning, a scout sent him a terrible message

"Deputy Commander! The instrument has detected a large force gathering in the northeast, and judging by their movements, it is likely that they are preparing to bypass our main force and storm the Order's territory! ”

"What?!" The priest cried out in horror, and he asked in a hurry, "How many people are there?!" What's the configuration?! ”

"In terms of numbers, there are thousands! All with heavy firepower, as well as a large number of armored units, a mixture of mechanized infantry regiments and armored regiments, I'm afraid! ”

The priest's heart was half cold, if there was no accident, he would not be afraid of this force, after all, if they went head-to-head, they would not suffer too much, even if the other party wanted to sneak attack, the Order would have enough mobile troops to deal with it.

But now, almost all the troops are held back by these rune warriors made of civilian corpses, and there is no way to support and defend the territory!

Now, it can be said that the assembled heavy troops in the northeast are a terrible sharp knife, and the territory of the Order is the heart, the bare heart! All it takes is one carelessness and the heart will be pierced!

The purpose of the Order's war is to defeat the Coalition Army and thus protect the civilians of the Order's territory, if these civilians are slaughtered first, they will lose the purpose and faith of fighting, and the entire army will collapse!

For a time, the originally imposing Order's troops fell into a low morale estimate, and many soldiers were unwilling to curse the insidiousness of the Combine Army, but there was no way to deal with the situation.

The priest really wanted to let his main force defend himself, but he had already found that there were many rune warriors made of civilian corpses in the alleys not far away, and if he retreated now, he would expose his back to the enemy, and the consequences would be unimaginable!

"Damn! How many monsters are there! Isn't the whole city dead?! Han Du looked at these rune warriors with fierce eyes and roared unwillingly.

Sofina said solemnly: "It's impossible to all die, but I think that the Stygian will definitely do everything in its power to delay the movement of the Order's troops, so that the forces of the Combine Army can destroy the Order's collection and you see, there are many wandering rune warriors in the alleys, and it should be impossible for the living civilians to stay in the civilian area, so they are likely to be concentrated in the inner defense line, killed one by one, made into rune warriors on the spot, and come to stop us on the spot"

Han Du cut unwillingly, he had seen the methods of these fanatical believers, even his own children could be smashed into pulp, what was so difficult about letting them die? What's more, they can really gain great power after death, but it's not just a casual talk!

In this way, those civilians who have been baptized by fanatical thoughts are afraid that they will die quickly and become rune warriors in a hurry!

The morale of the Order's troops was at its lowest point, and the soldiers kept shooting to stop more and more rune warriors, but on the one hand, they were also anxious, and now with a second of delay, the Combined's armored forces would get closer to the Order's territory

The countdown to the destruction began to sound, representing the collapse of the hourglass disappearing little by little, at this moment, all the light and hope seemed to have disappeared, and many people even closed their eyes in pain, clenched the cross in their hands, and prayed for the arrival of the savior

However, will there really be a savior to save them?

Can light really overwhelm darkness, and can hope really come from despair?

No one knows the answer, and as time passes little by little, everyone is in a hurry
