I wanted to chase him, but I was worried that it was a ploy to divert the tiger. I looked down at the demons, and the undead were fleeing.

Carla asked, "Father, can this man manipulate demons?" Who is he? She was so frightened that her lips turned white, and she tried to maintain a calm appearance.

I replied, "He's a member of the Salotte bloodline, and it's probably probably from the Era Empire. ”

"Salot? The Anno Empire? ”

"Do you see that strange eye on his forehead? That's a symbol of their clan. The Anno Empire is also our enemy, always wanting to invade the Black Coffin and cry. ”

Carla said, "We're better than them, aren't we?" As soon as that person heard your name, he fled like a lost dog. ”

"Of course, and it's their fault, they're the one who did the wrong."

"Will he ever come back?"

I sighed in my heart and said, "I'll be on my toes, you don't have to worry." ”

Kara shook her head again and again, and said, "I'm not afraid, I'm sure you'll protect us." ”

The Salot's vision is far away, similar to telepathy, he can keep an eye on me and I can't do anything about it, if I want to find him, he can know and deal with it immediately, the all-knowing enemy is really tricky, not to mention that he can manipulate demons.

Mai Zong has invented a similar technique, and I should ask him for advice someday. He's always been out of place with everyone, but he and I are tech nerds of the last century, so we should be able to talk.

Kara suddenly said, "I... I want to pee, father. ”

I said, "Okay, let's turn our heads." ”

Carla said, "No, so many people, I.... Can't get out. ”

Edelman smiled and said, "Your Highness Kara, since you are embarrassed by this, how about I avoid it for the time being?" ”

Carla said, "I'll go into the corner by myself, and you are not allowed to come with me." ”

She had just taken a step when Martin grabbed her hand with a panicked look in his eyes.

Kara: "Let me go!" ”

Martin struggled to squeeze out a few words: "You're not a sister." ”

Carla hurriedly said, "What are you talking nonsense? Don't mess with me now! ”

I suddenly realized: "It was Salotte who hypnotized her!" ”

I use the telepathic blade on her, and for mental manipulation, I only have defensive powers, and I am not good at dispelling. But Zhao Luo explained to me that the hypnosis of the Salotte tribe is different from that of Missouri and Tiphon, it is not permanent, but like a ghost possessing the human brain, he holds her tightly, binds her, and cannot relax in the slightest, otherwise Kara will have a chance to break free.

She screamed as she touched Kara, and I felt something different, like something had slipped through her.

I wiped her sweat away, and she shivered for a moment before burrowing into my arms.

"She recovered," Martin said. ”

I heard one of the mercenaries taking a deep breath, and when I turned around, I saw that his gun was aimed at Martin. He said, "Don't move, Longinus, or your son...."

In an instant, I knocked him unconscious, and in a moment the other mercenary convulsed, foaming at the mouth, and the hand holding the gun was trembling.

The ghost, the spirit of the Salot, wandered among these people like a wanderer.

I used the shepherd sheep to cover them all, this move has a certain mental defense effect, they can't move at all, but their minds should be safe.

I released my shadow and merged with it, and by its sight I saw a spirit that was passing away.

It fled in a certain direction.

I stroked Kara, she opened her eyes and said bitterly, "Father, I.... It was like being swallowed by a monster, and it spit me out again. I.... It's very uncomfortable. ”

Martin took Kara's hand, which made her feel better.

I said, "You be stronger, and with me, everything will be fine." ”

Kara cried and said, "Am I too useless? Father, please don't abandon me, please don't leave me. ”

I kissed her little hand and said, "Not only will I not leave you, but I will also help you find your lost loved ones, this is our agreement, remember?" ”

Kara's expression softened, and she said, "From tomorrow, I will learn to read the blade, and I will protect myself, share the burden for you, and protect me and Martin." ”

I laughed and said, "Martin just protected you, and he's doing well." ”

Carla said, "That's good, my stupid brother, I thought...."

I shuddered when I heard this, because there was a big filial son in the animation of the last century who often said this, and killed the whole family for no reason, which made me feel a little hairy.

But for now, I have to kill this Salot, no matter how hard it is.

I put my arms around Carla and Martin and walked towards the office building, to the darkest place, and covered us with a shadow, and I said, "It's safe this way, go to sleep." ”

The Salotte has reclaimed the "ghost", and I'm not sure if he's still watching us, and if I go for him, no matter how subtle, he'll doubt that he can control my movements, but I can't.

At this point, I can use Traceless, I make myself completely forget about his threat, and he will forget about me and turn a blind eye to me. It's just that I have to make sure I remember one thing, going in a certain direction.

I organize all my thoughts so that my mind is calm, there is no anger, no resentment, no worries, no distress. A hole appeared in my memory, a vision that had disappeared inexplicably.

I stood up, and Kara hurriedly said, "Father, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing, I want to investigate."

"Scouting what? That...."

I didn't hear her name, and I said, "I'll be back soon." ”

Carla cried under her breath again, and I looked at her in confusion for a moment, then walked in a certain direction.

My shadow flowed in front of me, like a small ball attracted by magnetic force, and I looked over the hills and looked at the huge moon, and I could even see the craters on the surface of the moon. When did the Moon get so close to Earth? Where is my shadow going to take me?

When a person is aimless, the road ahead becomes incomparably long, falling into self-doubt and indecision, I constantly question the meaning of my journey, I want to stop, I want to turn back, I want to rest, I shake my head and smile bitterly and feel sorry for myself, I can't find anyone to talk to, and even the scenery along the way becomes boring and monotonous.

I looked up, trying to find the starry prisoner Martin was talking about, imagining his desperate situation.

It dawned on me that I could relate to his feelings.

I am like the exiled Cain, walking on a dark continent where humans are scarce.

I don't know if I'll ever meet my Lilith, my Mother of Darkness, or if she'll quench my thirst with blood and reveal the secret of her power to me.

What am I after? I feel inferior to myself for my incompetence. At the same time, I was angry and hated the people who hurt me and cursed me.

Why? Longinus? Why?

Why do you bear sin? Why are you cursed with blood?

You're just an incompetent and ** centurion, an incurable, vile and shameless scumbag, an executioner who has been pushed forward.

What is your sin?

Executed the Son?

That's not my decision, that's just my job.

Why me?

Because I am the most useless, they use the humblest me to kill the greatest heroes.

Under the dark sky, the magnificent buildings of Rome, the decaying city, cast a cold shadow.

I saw a blonde preacher,

His eyes were cold, his face was pale,

He was smiling and holy,

He is like the first ray of light at dawn,

pierced the darkness, but deepened it,

It brought light, and that light shuddered.

He stretched out his hand to me, as if God had opened a door to me,

It is full of sin and curse, but also full of glory and hope,

He made me sell my soul, but by virtue of this covenant I went on the path of a saint.

Satan, Ambrosa, Lucifer, the first archangels, the morning light of the universe.

"You're doing a great job, Longinus," he said. ”

I cried, "I killed the Son of God." ”

Lucifer said, "You saved the world. ”

"Everything was arranged by you?"

"Everything is, but it's not. The universe has its own cause and effect, and I am as dazed and fearful as you. ”

I knelt in front of him and said, "If you are really a demon, please take my soul." ”

"No, my friend, I was the head of the angels before I became a demon.

The God of Creation has imposed sin on me, persecuted me, and framed me before I can truly commit sin.

But I have not given up my creed, nor have I fallen into my nobility.

This is not a covenant to go to hell, and your redemption has just begun. ”

In an instant, my anxiety, my wandering, my dazedness, my drowsiness, my guilt, my remorse, my weight, my fall, all vanished.

I realized that everything I had been through was nothing compared to Lucifer.

I held his hand as if holding the last ray of light in my life,

I was in darkness, I was in hell, but I knew that I would fight against my fate and against God's injustice.

....

On the edge of the cliff, I saw a three-eyed man, he looked at me puzzled, and after a second, he remembered who I was, and his gaze became stern and vicious.

Enemies of the Salottes.

He said, "Fishbone Longinus! You can find me! How did you evade my surveillance? ”

I replied, "I used to hide from God's gaze, like bacteria hide from the human body where it lodges, what is your name?" The blood of the Salottes. ”

He said his name was Bakken, and as he spoke, he pulled out his weapon, a massive warhammer.

He said: "You are Zhao Luo's accomplice, and for killing my companion, I vow to make you pay for your blood as well." ”

"How did you manipulate demons?"

"It's Barr who gives me the power," Beckon said. ”

"Barr? That seems to be a big demon. When did the Anno Empire fall into the hands of demons? ”

Beckon said: "The Balists are allies of the Epoch Empire. ”

I asked, "If the Anno Empire can ally even with demons, why do you have to be the enemy of the Black Coffin?" ”

Beckon laughed, "Because Baal is just a religion, just the source of some strange power, and the Epoch Empire worships multiple gods, you don't really believe in the existence of such an ancient demon duke." ”

I told him that I didn't believe it at first, but despair and loneliness wore away at me, the curse of blood poisoned me, and in the wandering journey of my hatred, I saw the light of hope in the darkness.

It's like Adam taking the apple.

It's like Cain met Lilith.

I also met the serpent that gave me wisdom.

I am Saint Longinus, I have killed the incarnation of God, I have been tempted by demons, I am cursed by God.

But even if the world is destroyed, even if mankind sinks, even if the sun is poisonous, even if the moonlight is desecrated, even if the world is turned upside down, and good and evil are reversed,

I'm still a saint.
