(63) What's that...... Come and see the Knock Knock apparition.
Dio is a very sensible and responsible lord, but his childhood experience and education in a foreign place have caused this lord to be very averse to religion and the like, and he has always believed that the magic of the gods is just some undiscovered effect of functional architecture, and this recognition allows Dio to calmly fight face-to-face with undead monsters beyond the scope of ordinary people's understanding.
But Dio is not the kind of ruler who has a strong desire to control, even if he is disgusted with religion, Dio did not order the expulsion of all the monks in his territory or the demolition of all churches, he knows how to give his people the freedom of the soul.
The strong inclusiveness of Bologna has also given him a strong reputation among his own people, and the universities of Bologna are full of schools of thought, and all visitors who come here for business can find their place of worship.
Freedom and faith are good things, but now Dio regrets that he had indulged in his mind too much.
Because in front of his eyes appeared a group of foolish foolish incorrigible prayers, and then bowed to Dongdong, and bowed to him.
"Looks like we need to get the faith in order..."
Dio sighed as he watched his stupid leader being dragged away by the guards.
"I don't know what will happen when I enter the polluted area this time, so people who don't want to go don't have to follow."
Then the young lord spoke solemnly to his guards, but none of the warriors flinched.
"Nobody wants to quit? All right...... Then go inside. ”
As he spoke, Dio walked at the front of the line with his shield and sword.
Ice Hunter put on a hideous plate armor helmet and followed closely behind with Dongdong's hand, Morgan always kept a distance of about three steps from Dongdong so that he could protect her at any time, while Ningyi led the thirty family guards who accompanied him to maintain the battle formation.
Everywhere this team went, the barren environment seemed to have been split in two by a sword, the sky was no longer cloudy, the earth was no longer dark, and everything was restored to its previous state except for the dilapidated buildings that had been polluted and corroded, which was amazing!
In the midst of the uneasy onlookers, this unimaginable spectacle suddenly appeared, and all the witnesses were stunned.
"Knock knock...... It's a knock on the spirit! O great light! Praise you! ”
Suddenly, a brain-pumping believer cheered loudly.
Although the coaxing guy was immediately pushed to the ground by the soldiers, the faces of the people inevitably showed a look of waver.
'Humph! That's what you want! Use this armor to absorb the power of the Barren Lands and create a scene of Knock Knock! ’
Although it is sealed with its own transcendent power, but Ice Hunt can also use equipment with the same power attributes as himself, the power of ghosts and gods and the power of the undead natural disasters are a kind of negative energy, but compared with the cruel and cold power of death, the power of ghosts and gods is undoubtedly more unpredictable and degenerate, and the ice hunt, who is handy with the power of ghosts and gods, can of course also borrow the power of death.
'Although when you put on the armor, you can use the evil power of the undead to imitate the tricks of the ghost swordsman...... It's a pity that this plate armor is not suitable for using those tricks at all, if you use it a few more times, I'm afraid that even its original effect will disappear, and finally become a pile of ordinary scrap metal, right? ’
The group came to the entrance of the necropolis, which was shrouded in an eerie black mist, giving a strong warning of danger.
"Is this it? Ice hunting? "Hmm...... That's right, move on. Peace! These things don't dare to approach Knock Knock. The red haired replied matter-of-factly, in fact, the magical scene was just written and directed by this guy, and it had nothing to do with Xiao Maoyu.
But the reality is right in front of me, and people can't help but think about it, even Ning Yi, who knew in advance that this was acting hype, thought it could be that Dongdong had some hidden special function...... The only one present who did not waver was Lord Dior, who had a very 'scientific' worldview.
Among the various buildings of the undead, the Necropolis, the Hall of the Dead, and the Black Castle are the buildings with the strongest power of death, almost to the extent that ordinary people cannot approach, and those who have not been eroded to death by evil energy after entering will also be transformed into acolytes of the Cult of the Damned.
However, this high concentration of filthy power is being absorbed by Ice Hunter and injected into the armor on his body, and the reason why Red Fur wears a helmet when entering the Wasteland is to prevent his abnormal expression from being seen as flawed - although he has regained his strength by clever means, the protective seal that the shrine maiden has placed on him will still warn Ice Hunter with intense pain.
There were no monsters in the necropolis, and a team of centaurs came to the top of the necropolis very easily, and they found a delicate treasure chest under the tallest stone monument, but they didn't find anything else, Dio looked at the black-armored knight behind him in confusion.
Faced with the lord's doubts, the confident red fur let go of Dongdong's hand, and then gently pushed her towards the treasure chest under the stone tablet.
"Knock knock, go open that box."
Ice Hunt, who absorbed the filthy power around him, endured the intense pain caused by the rebound of the seal, and said to the little guy with a smile. The little guy nodded obediently, and then ran to the box quickly, the red hair looked at Dongdong's back and put down half of his hanging heart, his role has ended now, and the next performance will depend on the guy in the box.
Dong Dong carefully opened the box in front of her, and the contents made her let out a cry of surprise and delight.
"Mercy!"
Inside the box is a large, shiny bald head that has been maintained!
After Dongdong saw this elder who had not seen her for a long time, she immediately became happy, and she took the bald head out of the box.
People who didn't know the truth were a little chilled when they saw Dongdong happily take out a human head from the box, and the next scene made a few less daring guards almost lose their weapons.
The human head in Dongdong's hand opened its eyes with a majestic expression, and it actually spoke!
"I ask you...... Are you Dongdong? ”
Knock tilted his head in confusion.
"It's me? An Ci doesn't know Dongdong? ”
"When I knew you before, I knew you were hopeful...... Hope against evil, and you are standing before me right now! ”
“…… Yes? ”
Just when the little guy was ignorant, Dio Zheng pulled out his sword.
"What are you!"
"O lord of another continent! Don't panic...... I was originally a general of a country, and I fought all my life against the undead scourge, but after I died...... Those malevolent beings have desecrated my corpse and disturbed my sleep. ”
An Ci's tone gradually changed from formulaic at the beginning to empathy.
"They drove me, who was already a dry bone in the grave, to fight for their purposes, and I am the core manager of this necropolis!"
"In my despair, a voice told me that this hopeful child had come back to wake me up, and I was going to fight for her!"
This is the last hole card of Ice Hunt's performance, the shining bald head who became the manager of the cemetery with the body of the undead - Monk Anci!
When the Necropolis was first summoned, Ice Hunt temporarily put An Ci in a box and hid it in order to prevent misunderstanding.
Later, when Redfur asks Tigerskin Meow to help pass the note, and colludes with Anci in the box to carry out the show, no one could have imagined that an ordinary-looking cat would be able to come and go in a barren land that can turn Sparta into a soft-footed shrimp.
Even if he becomes a cat, but Kazan is still a ghost in nature, Ice Hunt can fight with the power of the undead, Kazan can naturally too, Kazan of the sword soul has always been the terrible existence that has destroyed the continent-level empire.
Even if it becomes the meow of the sword soul......
'Humph! Everything! Now it's time for Dior to witness the end! This necropolis will be summoned by the ornate counter-summoning - An Ci, as the administrator, has such authority. ’
Redfur has the potential to be a big fool, and his script is much more complete than the brainless campaign script of the Scourge of the Dead.
Pity...... Something unexpected happened to Ice Hunt.
Before An Ci could finish reading the final curtain lines, he was hugged tightly by Dong Dong.
"Hmm...... I can feel it. ”
Knock Knock whispered.
"From the moment I came in, I could hear a lot of people crying...... I'm still wondering! There's no one around? But there was not a single person in sight. ”
The little girl's words sent chills down the spine of the audience, and even Ice Hunter felt that the temperature had dropped by a few degrees.
"I can feel everyone's cries, sadness, and pain!"
The little one shouted loudly into the open space around him.
"So...... Please come out! ”
At the call of Dong Dong, a large number of blue figures appeared from under the ground, from the stone monuments, and from the air, and even the most dull people could clearly distinguish the pained expressions from their blurred faces.
In a short period of time, the place where Dongdong was standing was surrounded by hundreds of painful souls, and the number was still rising.
"Ice Hunt! What's going on with this? ”
Ning Yi asked hurriedly.
"I don't know what's going on!"
Ice Hunter nervously drew his sword.
"It's not what I thought!"
Just when everyone was nervous and ready for a fierce battle, Dong Dong, who was surrounded by the dead in the middle, was suddenly wrapped in a pure white circle of light, and these lights were emitted from Dong Dong's chest.
Bang Chang ......
The sword in Dio's hand fell to the ground, but he didn't notice it at all, and the young lord muttered to himself with an expression of disbelief.
"Is the intelligence true? Knock knock she really glows!? ”
