Chapter 21. Demonic siege
Originally, Nero was not ready to take care of this matter anymore, but this guy Credo persuaded Ji Liye and asked her to help lobby him, and he himself has always been obsessed with the last defeat under Li Hao's hands, and he always feels that he is holding his breath in his heart and wants to get this field back........ Nero, who still couldn't escape the life of the coolie, embarked on a journey to pursue Li Hao and Dante.
Before leaving, he glanced at Credo rather unhappily, because he really couldn't imagine that a guy with 'thick eyebrows and big eyes' like Credo would do such a small actionββββ this guy knew from the beginning that he would definitely not be able to refuse Ji Liet's request.
As for how that guy persuaded Gilliet, Nero didn't have to guess to know, it was nothing more than 'the people in the world are in urgent need of hanging upside down, and this danger can only be saved by the general Nero!' So you have to help me persuade him or something.
Only in this way can it be possible to convince the kind-hearted Jiliet to help persuade Nero, otherwise, with the danger of this matter, how could Jiliet be willing to let Nero take the risk.
The three of them walked out of the church side by side, and as soon as they stepped out of the main hall, a terrible cry for help reached their ears.
"Save. Help me! Oh my! Come on! Who's going to save us! β
The sudden cry for help made the three of them stunned for a second, and then immediately turned their heads to look in the direction where the voice came from.
Outside the church, there is a large square preserved from the Middle Ages, in the center of the square there is a huge fountain pool, and the person who asked for help is running out of the fountain in a panic, looking at his dress, it should be the believers who were still worshipping in the church before.
Seeing that the man still had blood stains on his body, his steps were staggering, and he was walking staggeringly, he should have been injured.
The three of them stared at each other, and instantly became vigilant, Credo immediately drew his sword, and Nero also took out the blue rose from his arms.
Just as Kirily was about to call the believer, the believer seemed to spot them as well, and stretched out his hand to them from a distance to ask for help, with an expression of helplessness and horror on his face.
"Sir, have you been attacked? Don't worry, we'll help you. Credo comforted the man and ran to him.
But almost at the same time, Credo took a step forward.....
Sizzle!
There was a high-pitched, piercing hiss, and a scarecrow demon suddenly appeared from behind the fountain and leaped towards the believer, the blood-stained butcher knife in his hand aimed squarely at the believer's back!
Although the moment the scarecrow demon appeared, Nero and Credo discovered it, but they couldn't do anything, because they were so far away from the believer that they could only watch as the huge blade in the demon's hand plunged into the man's back, piercing it through, and then lifting it up into the air, throwing it out like garbage!
"Hmm!" Ji Liye couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her mouth to prevent herself from screaming, and her head was also turned away, not wanting to see the tragic death of the believer.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Nero hurried forward and comforted her softly.
Seeing that he still hadn't saved that person after all, Credo roared, instantly sped up, jumped up directly, and slashed the scarecrow demon under the sword with a condescending slash!
Then, the next second, he was stunned..... There is more than one demon! After the fountain, the square is littered with raging demons!
From afar, the shouts of countless people were heard, and then they got closer and closer, and as far as the naked eye could see, a large number of demons appeared in various parts of the city, and people were fleeing for their lives!
"It's... What's going on? β
It's normal for demons to appear around Verduna, even if it's not surprising that one or two scarecrow demons pop up on the city streets..... But that can only happen at night on the night of a Blood Moon!
And this is the center of the city, and it is completely incomparable to the appearance of demons in the suburbs, at least he Credo has never seen a demon appear in the center of the city in all these years.
Besides, this is a cathedral! Not far away is the headquarters of their Demon Sword Knight Order! How could the demons have invaded here?! It's unimaginable!
But in fact, it is not surprising, according to normal circumstances, it is true that no demon can easily invade the Buddha, but if ..... Is it the guardian of the city, the protector god, the Order of the Knights of the Demon Sword doing it themselves?
It wouldn't be surprising if the people who had been guarding the city were now the ones behind this demonic invasion.
Nero suddenly glanced back at Credo with a complicated expression, and at this moment, he suddenly remembered what Li Hao said to himself before leaving..... Wait, the Pope has been preparing for such a good show, it is estimated that it will start soon, and this city will soon become a paradise for those demons.
At the time, Nero didn't think it was serious, thinking that the guy was talking nonsense, but when these demons really appeared in front of him, he couldn't help but wonder what the truth of this matter was.
Did the old man of the Pope really do it? Or Li Hao and Dante did it, and then it is estimated that they splashed dirty water on the Pope.... For some reason, Nero was inexplicably more inclined in his heart that all this was really the Pope's conspiracy, although it stands to reason that as a member of the Demon Sword Knight Order, his position should be on the Pope's side, but he felt that Li Hao's words were the truth!
...........
Not mentioning Nero's side, but said that after Dante left the church, he went all the way to the castle of Verduna, and then wandered around aimlessly, because although he and Tracy had agreed to meet here and discuss the next move, the exact place and time of the meeting were not agreed in advance, so they had to look for it.
Along the way, a few demons will suddenly appear from time to time, and Dante doesn't have to do anything, because whenever a demon appears, Li Hao next to him will be like a hungry wolf who sees a fat sheep, and instantly pounce on it, and dance in unison, chopping it into pieces, and hunting demons with extraordinary enthusiasm, Dante is a little stunned.
My son..... I'm afraid I don't have a special hobby of cutting demons, although I seem to have a little bit, and I want to find a few demons to loosen my muscles and bones when my hands are itchy, but it hasn't reached the point of 'scraping the ground', right?
Along the way, they encountered a total of dozens of demons, as long as they appeared within their perception range, without exception, they were all turned into value points by Li Hao, even if they were not by their side or in their way!
Whoop....
A swarm of wriggling sounds came into his ears, and several scarecrow demons suddenly stood up from the ground, Dante subconsciously took out two guns, but before he could take aim, a purple-red thunderbolt instantly burst out from his side, rushing in, a burst of thunder flashed, and several scarecrow demons instantly turned into ashes, and there was nothing left.
Dante: "......" Ahaha... It's good that young people are energetic, well, it's a good thing.
