Volume 3 The War of the Insects Chapter 249 The Battle of Kalinhod (13)
What to do?
Morningstar really didn't think of any good way for a while, the distance was too close, and he didn't know if the so-called nuclear bomb-like power of this guy was real. Just as Morningstar racked his brains to find a solution, Tina's nervous voice came from the headphones.
"Morning Star, oh no, multiple reflex signals have been detected, your prophecy has been fulfilled!"
What a big gesture, Morning Star sighed in his heart, the Mandate of Heaven Sect actually used the Space Force for this operation! This is an all-out declaration of war on the Empire!
"Protect yourself, and if you are defeated, get out of the battlefield as soon as possible! Promise me! Morningstar's words were loud, even a little eager, which made Tina a a little panicked, and her voice trembled a little when she answered: "I, I'll try my best!" β
"Not as much as possible! It has to be done! β
Although worried, Morningstar knew that now was not the time to persuade Tina, and that he still needed to solve this matter! The communication was turned off, and Morningstar looked up, because of Morningstar's roar, everyone in the banquet hall knew that something big had happened. And the one with a brighter head, combined with the inexact news he got before, also analyzed that the empire is fighting a war with whom!
"It's as legend goes, Lord Morningstar. I've heard people say that you are a prodigal son, or a prodigal son with affection and righteousness, but when I see it today, it's really like this, I can't save my own life, and you still want to save others? β
As soon as Morning Star's words fell, the middle-aged man blocking the door picked up the conversation, and then continued: "Introduce myself, I am a former imperial official, my name is Skrill. β
As Skrill introduced himself, Morningstar gradually learned that this person was the official who had disappeared after entering Kalinhold as mentioned by Kentas, and he was also the person in Kentas's mouth who had strange runes hanging in his home, and if nothing else, Skril should also be the murderer of the villa murder. Before Morningstar could speak, he heard Vistock behind him take the lead and say, "Skrill? Why would you do such a thing? Aren't you ashamed that you were once a hero loyal to the Empire? β
It seems that Skril should be a famous person in the history of the empire, and Vestock will even remember him.
Vetstock's words caused Skril to lose his mind for a moment, as if recalling the past, but after a moment, Skril shook his head vigorously and replied: "Your Excellency, you will not understand, human beings are not their opponents at all, if we do not surrender, then our fate will definitely be destruction!" β
"Shameful!" Vistock shouted: "My imperial official, how can there be a soft egg like you? What is so terrible about dying! β
Skril continued to shake his head, his mood gradually became depressed, Morning Star was about to make a sneak attack, but suddenly saw Skril raise his head, his eyes were full of blood-red light, and his tone gradually became high, and said, "You don't understand at all, you don't understand at all!" There is nothing terrible about death, but those people are more feared than death! You haven't seen their methods at all! They are rooted
It's the devil! Especially Lord Azazel, when he comes to the human world, we will not be spared! Unless, we join the Mandate of Heaven Sect and become believers! And you, you, none of you have seen the power of Lord Azazel, let alone the power of his Void Swarm! β
Skrill's emotions had reached a boiling point, and Morningstar was worried that he would explode himself directly from his overexcitement, so he said, "You're wrong, Azazel and the Void Swarm, I've seen them all!" β
Morningstar's words managed to attract Skrill's attention, he looked at Morningstar in disbelief, then shook his head and said, "No way, no one can survive meeting Lord Azazel and the Void Swarm, you're lying!" β
Morningstar sighed lightly and recounted the characteristics of the so-called Azazel and the Void Swarm, and it really caught Skril. Of course, Morningstar was lying, he hadn't met Azazel, let alone seen the Void Swarm with his own eyes, and the reason why Morningstar knew all this was because of the video that Quinn had discovered. Enough, though, as long as Skrill doesn't get too impulsive, Morningstar's lie is a success.
Scrier's face was full of disbelief, and he wanted to continue accusing Morningstar of lying, but Morningstar's words were so accurate. If the Void Swarm can still be said to have been imagined by Morning Star through the insects, but how did Morning Star know about the physical characteristics of Azazel?
"Skrill, I have to say, your infiltration skills are really strong. We didn't get you out of this way, and I think you really deserve a high look. Morningstar said when he saw that Skril had calmed down a little.
Skrill hurriedly looked at Morning Star vigilantly, and replied with a sneer: "Don't waste your efforts, Morning Star, I will not be persuaded by you, my soul has been handed over to the Heavenly Mandate Sect, and I am honored to die for the Heavenly Mandate Sect!" β
"No, no, no!" Morning Star hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't want to persuade you, you should also know that there are probably dozens of people from the Heavenly Mandate Sect who died under my hands, and I know your style very well, so I don't want to waste my words." Looking around, his eyes deliberately stopped at the direction of the two exits, and then Morning Star said: "Look, your people have controlled the exit, according to my analysis, the periphery of this hotel should also be controlled by you, am I right?" β
Scorsr was noncommittal, acquiescing to Morningstar's words.
"In that case, if we break through, you're going to blow yourself up and kill us all, right?" Morningstar continued.
Skrill was still expressionless, but everyone knew that the reason why Skril was still able to talk to Morningstar was because of this.
"The present form has been mastered by you, in other words, today we will die, and your actions will be successful! You think so, right? Morning Star's words caused a small commotion in the banquet hall, and even some timid aristocratic women were already crying. But those who can be invited have status in the Empire
People with status, these people have all experienced storms, and they all know that if the scene gets out of control now, they can only let themselves die faster, so they controlled the women who were about to cry, and quietly watched how Morning Star dealt with it.
Skrill finally reacted, but only nodded.
Morning Star sighed lightly and continued: "I have to say, you guys are really well prepared, just now I tried to communicate with my mecha, and found that there was no response at all, it should be what means you used to block my induction, right?" β
Morningstar's words finally brought a proud smile on Skrill's face, and he replied, "That's right, you're too high-profile, we've given us too much information about you, and we've taken great pains to do it for you." β
Morning Star pouted, this feeling of being valued was a little strange.
"In that case, we are certain to die! Since you are so confident, I wonder if you can answer a few of my questions before I die. β
Maybe it was because he was too confident, or maybe it was because Skril thought he had already eaten the Morning Star, and he even had a few more words with the Morning Star.
Morningstar got the other party's reply, and said lightly: "First of all, Mr. Crimskrill helped me solve my doubts. Why are they all dead, you don't choose to be a human warrior, but choose to be a dead soldier of the Heavenly Mandate Sect? β
Morningstar's words made Skril stunned, he had never thought about this question, it seemed that there was only the idea of dedicating himself to the Heavenly Mandate Sect in his mind, as for dying for the human race? He never thought about it. Seeing Skrill's performance, Morningstar also knew in his heart that this was the strange method of the Mandate of Heaven Sect, they could influence the minds of others, so that they would obey their orders unconsciously, this method Norin Hill had told Morningstar that it seemed to be some kind of subconscious control.
Fearing that Skrill would go mad in the loop, Morningstar hurriedly continued, "Okay, okay, that's your business, don't tell me. I also want to know, did you do the murder at the villa? If yes, Kiyoshi told me why I did this, killing people is not a nod to the ground, why are you so cruel. β
A cruel smile appeared on Skrill's lips, as if he remembered the scene, or rather he was enjoying it, and replied, "Of course me, the others, how could I do it so perfectly!" With that, Skril licked his lips, and his face looked like a devil thirsting for blood. After a few moments, Skrill continued, "Even though I told you that you don't necessarily understand, I can't help but say it. You ask me why I did that, and I tell you, this is the power of our Heavenly Mandate Sect, the power that God has given us! If I had received the power of the gods elsewhere, I was afraid that I would have been discovered when I passed through the levels, so I chose to come to Kalinghod to make a sacrifice and let the gods add to my strength! β
"Wait!" Morningstar interrupted Skrill's narcissism and asked, "And how did you get past the ballroom inspection?" β
Skrill smiled contemptuously and tore off his clothes, naked
The exposed upper body caused a burst of exclamation from the people in the banquet hall, but it was not because of how sexy Skrill was, but because it was too disgusting.
Skrill's torso should be a human torso, barely distinguishable, but on his chest, there is a dead human face at this moment, that painful expression, anyone can think of what this person went through before he died. In addition to this face, there seemed to be traces of human limbs on Skrill's body, but they all seemed to be about to dissolve in half, and they were slowly being consumed by Skrill's body.
Skrill was clearly psychopathic, and when he saw the disgusting gazes of the crowd, he actually laughed out loud and shouted, "You mortals! To be so disrespectful to God's creation, look at me! What a perfect body! β
Morningstar really wants to go over and kill this guy now, it's disgusting, not only disgusting on the outside, but disgusting on the inside. But considering the possible consequences and what he wanted to know, Morningstar endured and said, "Let me think, if I'm not mistaken, you should have entered the banquet hall separately, right?" When you were two separate entities, you weren't much different from normal humans, but once you fused, it was a powerful bomb for a moment? β
When Skrill heard Morningstar's words, he didn't know whether he was anxious or excited, so he paced back and forth, and after a moment, he pointed to Morningstar and said, "You, you're great!" Morningstar, Moninsta! No wonder the Holy Maiden focuses on taking care of you and must get rid of you! I now finally understand why the Holy Maiden would say that about you, you are indeed wonderful! β
For Skrill's flattery, Morningstar only wanted to reply to him that he didn't need it, but there was a slight smug on his face, which made Skril let his guard down.
Morning Star finally knew what the secret weapon of the Heavenly Mandate Sect was, to be honest, Morning Star felt a headache, two good people, once combined together, it was a big killing weapon, how to defend against such a means? But now is not the time to think about that, Morningstar continued, "I'm a little proud of your compliment, but I have one more question that I'd like to ask for your help with. β
As soon as Morningstar's words fell, Caterina, who had been silent beside her, stood up, walked to Morningstar's side and gently grabbed Morningstar's arm. But Morningstar ducked a little. This strange behavior made Skril wonder a little, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Hahahaha, Morningstar, it seems that you are nothing more than that?" Sure enough, as the Lord God said, in the face of death, no one can deal with it calmly! Don't you love Katerina? So what are you hiding? Do you think that if you draw a line with Katarina, I will let you go? Hahahaha. β
The corners of Morningstar's mouth twitched, thinking that this was really a guy with a huge brain, and he actually thought of this. But Morningstar also had Scrill think so, so he would have more time to prepare. The situation is already like this, losses and casualties are indispensable, the lesser of two evils, between total destruction and some people being injured or killed, morning
Star chose the latter.
Skrill didn't know what Catalina's real purpose was when she stood next to Morning Star, but everyone behind Morning Star could see it clearly, because on the right hand that Morning Star was carrying, the pitch-black light clusters that were large and small had gradually taken shape. And the aura of nothingness in the black light cluster made everyone feel creepy.
The reason why Caterina got up and stood next to Morning Star was because she had heard about Morning Star's trick from Quinn's mouth, and Caterina was also clear about the characteristics of this trick. No matter what the nature of Skrill's explosion was, it came from his body, and his body couldn't escape the realm of ordinary matter, maybe the devouring power of the pitch-black light in Morningstar's hand could really cancel out the explosion he was about to face. In order to give Morning Star more time to prepare, Caterina bravely stood up and stood by Morning Star's side at the risk of being accidentally injured by the light cluster in Morning Star's hands. And the reason why Morning Star dodged was also because he was afraid of hurting Katarina. The others didn't know what the light in Morningstar's hand was, but how could Morningstar himself not understand that this strange ability that he had mastered because of his resonance with the trap, this strange trick called Annihilation by Morning Star, would devour everything it touched except himself, like a black hole. But fortunately, when Caterina stood up, it was already the time when the morning star compressed the annihilation to a stable form, and there was no longer a phenomenon of big and small, so Caterina was also unscathed.
Morningstar and Caterina looked at each other, then their eyes fell on the necklace around Caterina's neck, who willingly put his hand on it. Then Morningstar shook his shoulders slightly, shook off Katarina's arm, slowly raised his eyelids to look at Skrill, and asked, "My last question is, how can you be sure you can kill me?" β
Still unaware of Morningstar's intentions, Skrill replied, "I know you're powerful, but you're just a giveaway, and our purpose isn't yours!" Kill Vistock, kill Katarina, kill you high-ranking officials of the Empire, the administrative system of the Empire will be paralyzed, and the new forces we have fostered will spread the glory of the Mandate of Heaven to the land of the Empire in the name of the Lord God! β
As Skrill's voice grew higher and higher, his body rapidly turned red and swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, striking at everyone in the banquet hall with a furious aura. And the people who had been able to suppress their fears before finally exploded in full force at this moment, and they all retreated in the direction of Skrill. And Skrill, who was still moving his steps, gradually walked towards the morning star, his already distorted face still with a barely discernible contempt.
The time has come, and Morningstar has been waiting for such an opportunity, such an opportunity to minimize accidental injuries. The killing range of annihilation is a cylindrical area up to 100 meters long, and the morning star is waiting for the crowd to move away from the scrill as much as possible, and the direction of the impact can be as far away from the crowd as possible, as for whether it will cause harm to the innocent people outside, the morning star has no time to care. Skrill is right, the people here
Can't die, if Vistock dies with Caterina along with these officials, then the empire will really fall into the hands of the Manifest Destiny Sect.
The Morning Star moved, but the target wasn't Scriel. He gently pushed Caterina beside him to Vettock's side, and this loving father did his best to protect his daughter from being injured, and the majestic FΓΌhrer made a human cushion to protect Caterina. The moment Caterina was pushed out by Morningstar, Morningstar had already turned away, believing that Vystock would protect Caterina and that he would save as many people as he could. Morningstar didn't know if his figure would be captured by the people in the venue in order to adjust his position, but time didn't allow Morningstar to coordinate. In the flickering of his figure, Morning Star came to the middle of Skril and the crowd, the annihilation that had already been prepared in his hand was facing Skrill, who was about to explode, and above the free left hand, it represented the icy cold air that was unprecedentedly active, and a wall of ice appeared out of thin air in front of the crowd, through the ice wall, Morning Star could still vaguely see Katerina's outstretched arms and painful expression.
Annihilation was activated, as he had done the previous few times when he appeared in front of people, silently, like a god of death, harvesting all the lives he touched, but this time the opponent was not an ordinary person, but a powerful human bomb, and at the same time as the black light was fired, the explosion was also generated. Morning Star, who had no spirit to defend himself, felt a huge impact blow his body away, and then his back hit the ice wall, and after the huge force shattered the ice wall, the body of the morning star was embedded in the wall of the heart of the Kalinhold Ballroom, which was said to be able to resist railgun attacks.
