Chapter 362: Twist (II)

Previous Chapter

Outside the walls of Theodosius, the Nicaeans who arrived were completely shocked by what they saw.

"How...... How so? King John, who gasped, looked at everything in disbelief, Nicaea's fleet chose to land from the west of Constantinople instead of forcibly attacking the sea wall, although the defense of Theodosius' walls was very strong, but until it was clear what was happening in Constantinople, the Nicaean army did not dare to act rashly for a while.

But not so long ago, King John was shocked by the news that according to the intelligence of the scouts, not long ago there was a huge explosion on the outskirts of Constantinople, and as for what happened, they did not know, but the only thing that was certain was that there must have been a fierce battle here not so long ago.

And when the Nicaeans arrived here, they saw an extremely horrific scene.

"God, what the hell is going on?" Almost groaning, King John looked at the ground strewn with charred corpses and the mutilated bodies of the mechs, and saw at a glance that the army here seemed to be under some sudden attack, ravaged so badly that there seemed to be no survivors left.

More crucially, they finally arrived at the conspicuous cross symbol on the outside of the destroyed mechs, which was obviously only possessed by the Holy See. But this is even more shocking, considering that the power of the Holy See is extremely powerful, and after the fall of the new Roman Empire, it can be said that there is almost no power to balance this behemoth, but at this time, the mighty crusaders were actually destroyed. It had always been a big problem for them, but it fell apart in time, and everything reversed was really incredible.

It seemed that the greatest threat had been eliminated, but King John, Plekhanov and others did not blindly rejoice like the others, on the contrary, they felt that a great crisis was approaching them step by step.

"What a terrifying monster can do to be able to wipe out the Holy See's army in one blow!"

"Monsters? Isn't it an army? ”

"The army? What are you kidding, what other countries do you think the army is capable of doing this now? Franks or Holy Roman Empire? None of them can complete an absolute war of annihilation at all - the only reasonable explanation is even monsters! ”

There were whispers everywhere, obviously so ridiculous, but those people were very sure.

Yes, it is indeed difficult to explain that an existence that has been dominating for a long time can be wiped out. It is not unusual for the Crusaders to be thwarted. After all, the so-called crusaders are all levies in response to the call of the Holy See, and their combat effectiveness is very limited, and it is impossible for the Holy See to assist those nobles with a large amount of weapons and equipment. Outside of Constantinople at this time, the weapons of these men were clearly the most advanced weapons of the Holy Church—recoilless cannons, reloaded mechs, and all sorts of rifle muskets, all of which proved that this was a treatment that only the regular army of the Holy See could have.

To be able to destroy it systematically means that it must be terrifying. It's chilling to think about.

"You...... Look! At this moment, Vivien's face showed a look of horror, and her hand pointed directly at the wall, the wall of Theodosius. The ancient walls named after Theodosius the Great helped defend the empire from invasion after invasion, and even with the advent of a new era, the New Roman Empire and even the New Brad Kingdom continued to turn the walls into a powerful fortress.

It stands to reason that even if a large-scale artillery is mobilized, the city walls of Theodosius will not be able to move at all, but the scene in front of them makes people completely stunned.

Suddenly, the seemingly impregnable walls of Theodosius were hit by something that opened a huge gap, and all this happened unexpectedly.

"What the hell is that...... Monster? Just when he was puzzled, King John saw the huge footprints on the ground, and his expression froze suddenly, this kind of thing was obviously left by a mecha, but the size was a little too amazing! Isn't it possible to wipe out all the Holy See armies of such a large legion with this mecha?

King John, whose heart sank, was thoughtful, and Plekhanov beside him was equally silent.

And just then, an old voice suddenly sounded,

"Sure enough—it still appeared!"

At the same time, John and Plekhanov, who were startled, subconsciously turned their heads to look at General Merides walking behind them, and saw a trace of helplessness and despair on the old man's face.

"What...... Meaning? "King John and Plekhanov, though they also had some understanding, still couldn't believe it—

However, General Merrides said very calmly: "Of course it is the [Origin Species] apart from that kind of thing, what else do you think can have such terrifying destructive power?" It is not known exactly what happened, but at least one thing is very clear, someone has opened the shackles that sealed the demons, and the end of the city will come. ”

The man's voice was deafening, but it completely cast a huge shadow in everyone's heart-

What are you kidding, if such a thing exists, who can defeat it? Even the so-called Knight King will become vulnerable. It is impossible for man to defeat a god-like being!

……

The darkness suddenly disappeared, and when Constance Dante gradually became conscious, there was a white expanse in front of him, as if he was standing on a snowy field.

Constance Dante couldn't help but look in all directions but there was nothing, but suddenly the figure of a woman in his field of vision attracted Constance's attention, because she looked exactly like the princess back then, but even in the illusion, Constance Dante clearly remembered that the woman had already left this world. Today, she still looks exactly the same as she did back then, but Constance Dante understands that things are wrong.

"Is it really you again?" A look of annoyance appeared in Constance Dante's heart, and he knew that it must be the ghost of the hallucinations caused by [Nidhogg].

This made Constance Dante feel an instinctive disgust in his heart, but he knew that he did not hate the imitation of the other party, and the real reason came from the guilt in his heart for the woman.

Constantine always remembered what the woman expected of him at that moment, and he knew that there had always been a magical attachment in his knight's heart, which was precisely why he was able to fight for the new Roman Empire in the first place.

And everything he does now comes from that promise at the beginning, including the atonement at the beginning.

But the woman in front of her did not dissipate as suddenly as Constance Dante thought, but said lightly: "You are still the same as before, always pressing everything on yourself, regardless of whether you have that ability or not. And at this moment, Consdante's face also showed a look of astonishment, because this tone was exactly like the original Anastasia spoke to herself, and it could not be false at all.

At that moment, Constance Dante really had a trance, feeling that the woman standing in front of him was the woman.

"Sister Anna!" Couldn't help it, Constance Dante said in a lost voice, it was completely an involuntary subconscious behavior, because the woman in front of her imitated too real between a smile and a move.

But the next moment, Constance Dante regained his composure, because he knew that this was absolutely not true, there could never be any soul after death, this was what he had always believed, and he knew that it must be [Nidhogg]'s ghost!

"That's enough, I already said not to do it!" A somewhat furious Consité Dante whispered, and the corners of his eyes twitched, like a lion ready to pounce on him in a rage. Because this has completely touched his bottom line.

But the woman in front of her still didn't react, and suddenly showed a meaningful smile, and said slowly: "This is just the last joke that I made to you." ”

"In the end—doesn't it seem like you've been able to stop that madman Baldwin?" Constance Dante said indifferently, without any excitement, and he had no hope of defeating [Azazel].

But [she] in front of her shook her head and said, "No, it's my time that is almost up?" ”

"Your time ——?" Constance Dante looked at him in confusion, not knowing what to answer.

And the [woman] showed a very flat expression and said: "Isn't this a normal thing, even the ancient mecha will be destroyed, just like [Azazel] used to be our [king] but in the end it was [dead]. And my time is over, so now can only be our final farewell. A faint sigh also made Constance Dante feel a little confused.

"You ...... What exactly is it? Believing Constance, Dante finally asked with difficulty what he had been trying to ask all along, and the legacy of the gods in the Holy Sepulchre alone was probably not enough to explain anything.

But the other party showed a confused expression and muttered, "What are we?" Actually, I don't know - it's just that in the past, we had always existed as killing machines, but a huge battle completely destroyed civilization, so we also fell into a deep sleep. But one thing is certain, the so-called [Origin Species] is not a god, but a demon who brought this world to the end! ”

After saying that, the daughter turned and did not know where to go, but what she had just said was not enough to solve the confusion that had always existed in Constance Dante's heart.

"Wait a minute—" Constituent, who was about to stop talking, shouted to make the other man stop.

But he found that he couldn't move at all, and the other party gradually disappeared into the distance.

Consité Dante's ears rang only the familiar and unfamiliar words.

"My path has been completed, and now how will you choose the next path?"

……

And back to reality, Baldwin, who has been completely eroded by the cold mecha, has completely lost his warmth as a father, and even his humanity has finally been lost.

"Die!" Baldwin put a merciless judgment on his daughter. And the huge iron palm of [Azazel] immediately fell like a mountain. But the desperate Ann Lotte was already stunned, and she didn't even know how to dodge, she didn't expect her father to kill her.

At this moment—

"Get out of the way, Your Highness Ann Lost!"

Immediately afterward, Ann Roste felt as if a pair of powerful hands were being pushed away behind her back, and it was only then that Ann Lost's reaction took place.

Ann Lother, who came back to her senses, subconsciously looked back, and only then did she see what kind of person looked behind her.

"Uncle Godric?!" Ann Lost, who screamed in shock, realized that it was Godric, the palace minister who had been watching him grow up, who saved him, but the huge hand of [Azazle] had already fallen, and there was no intention of slowing down and slowing down.

But Godric looked calm, looked at Ann Lotte and said, "Please live well, Your Royal Highness—"

And then, the huge iron hand had already fallen like a mountain and directly pressed Godric down, and the sound of bones breaking was clearly audible and terrifying. But Ann Lost's heart was broken, and she couldn't believe that someone who looked like her loved one had died in front of her.

"Wow-"

A terrible cry pierced the sky, and a crack appeared in the clouds, and the light of the east was able to shine through the darkness. For Ann Lotter, however, it was indeed the darkest day of her life. Ann Lotte hugged her head and let out a heart-rending roar, she couldn't accept it. But this terrifying scene happened right in front of him.

Baldwin watched his former right-hand man die at his hands but didn't make any moves, instead making a cold voice in the mech.

"I'm so disappointed, since you chose to stand on the opposite side of me, then I can only say that this is the result you should have." Baldwin raised the mech's hand and said. And at this moment, Ann Roester completely tasted the feeling of being in the cold, she had never felt that her father was as inhuman as he was now. He actually said such an understatement!

But before Ann Loste could speak, the iron hand had fallen again, but this time there was no one to save Ann Lost. Ann Roste could only bow her head and close her eyes and wait for death to come.

But at this moment, a huge figure suddenly appeared and rushed towards the black mechanical angel!
