Zhang Xiao looked at the pattern on the pennant. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ignoring the faded red background, iris lace and golden lines representing the light, the most conspicuous feature of this pennant is undoubtedly an eerie cross.

It's not appropriate to say it's weird, it's just a small crossbar than a normal cross, and anyone who knows the meaning of this sign probably won't find this cross weird.

"The Cross of Lorraine......" Zhang Xiaonian said, he happened to know this different cross.

Also known as the Double Cross, the Lorraine Cross is known as the True Cross and represents freedom; And in the legend, the extra little bar has four Latin letters written on it, which translates to "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews".

That's right, legend has it that Jesus was crucified on this cross.

Zhang Xiao looked at Ji Qing, and the woman holding the Lorraine cross flag naturally appeared in his mind, "Joan of Arc?" ”

In the Middle Ages, there was a legendary woman known as the "Maiden of Orleans" and "Joan of Arc", who was illiterate but claimed to have received God's will, she wielded a sword and a flag, was active on the battlefield as a woman, and repeatedly defeated Britain when France was completely inferior, and finally completely reversed the inferior position of France in the Hundred Years' War.

That pennant was the Lorraine Cross, and legend has it that Joan of Arc had such a banner that she carried with her every time she went into battle, and she once said, "I value my banner more than my sword." ”

This can be seen as a testament to her devout faith in the Lord, and of course, Joan of Arc may have thought that it meant that the Lord was on her side.

A resolute smile appeared on Ji Qing's somewhat gloomy face, "That's right, I inherited the heroic name of [Joan of Arc] and have her power—the power of a hero endowed by legend. ”

Zhang Xiao was not happy when he heard this, but frowned and groaned slightly, "Inherit the name of the hero? ”

Ji Qing glanced at the monster that was about to break through the mist, and then said, "That guy probably inherited the name of [Adam], the ancestor of the original sin of mankind; Although he has strange powers, he is not Adam, but just a trialist with some of Adam's powers. ”

She raised her sword in one hand and said in a deep voice: "And it's also an unlucky guy who has been counterattacked." ”

“OAOA！！！”

The next moment the monster rushed out of the mist, and the fur was burned by the steam, which made it even more irritable, and only then did it rush out of the mist, but it rushed up without looking.

Ji Qing blocked the monster's claws with a horizontal sword.

Boom——————

The sound of the clash of gold and iron was accompanied by a terrifying wave of qi that instantly swept the audience, and the two people on the field only hit one blow, and the air wave that leaked out actually blew Zhang Xiao away.

Ji Qing glanced at Zhang Xiao worriedly, but he couldn't care about it, and concentrated on fighting with the monster.

Bang bang bang!!

The battle speed between the monster and Ji Qing was extremely fast, and Zhang Xiao couldn't see the changes on the field at all, but he also knew that both of them were just maintaining a physical level of temptation.

The temptation of flying sand and rocks.

Zhang Xiao narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to block the gravel like a bullet, although he was not injured, he was still beaten in pain.

After a long while, Ji Qing and the monster finally stopped for a while after the temptation, and Zhang Xiaocai finally saw the monster clearly.

"Seven heads and ten horns, like a leopard, a mouth like a lion, and bear's claws...... This thing ......" Zhang Xiao's eyes frowned slightly, thinking that he must have heard of such a thing.

After a short break, the monster made the first move again.

“OAOA！！！” It's no different from the cry, but this time the control of the gravel!

The rolling sand stone was gathered into a huge giant five meters high, and it hit it with a stone fist larger than Ji Qing.

Ji Qing crossed the sword and flag in front of him, but he was still knocked out in an instant, and spit out blood in mid-air.

It's not magic, it's pure power!

The "OAOA——————" monster screamed louder this time, as if it was inspired, and the stone giant also gathered more earth and stone under his control, and became larger.

Boom - Boom -

Every step it took was like an earthquake, and it seemed to catch up with Ji Qing slowly.

Zhang Xiao watched from the sidelines and was worried, but there was no way, he could only continue to recall this familiar monster, hoping to help.

Bang———

Catching up with Ji Qing effortlessly, the stone giant once again casually flew her.

Finally this time, Ji Qing made preparations in advance, and stood up with a beautiful turnover.

Her face was ugly, as if she had been wounded internally, but her eyes were bright and bright, and she was not depressed.

“OAOA！！！” The monster's cry urged the silent Golem.

But in the face of the stone giant's heavy punch again, Ji Qing thrust his sword, held the flag with both hands, and shouted loudly, "I have nothing to fear, because God is with me!" ”

Zhang Xiao knows this famous saying, this is what Joan of Arc once said, but now this is more than just a famous saying, it contains great magic!

Wow————

The white light instantly occupies every inch of the entire space.

“OAOA！！！！！！” The monster's screams rang out in blinding white light.

When the eye could see again, the golem had turned to ashes, as if it had been thrown into the sun.

But even more amazing was the monster, which melted and shattered in the light, cracked, and ...... and Adam, whom he devoured, appeared.

"......I see," Zhang Xiao recalled what he had just seen, and suddenly realized, "It was the first beast [666], the monster recorded in the Bible. ”

Recognizing the monster and seeing Ji Qing's actions just now, Zhang Xiao finally figured out the origin of the strength of the two.

"What?" Ji Qing gasped and asked subconsciously, but when he raised his head and looked at Adam, who was still alive in front of him, his face became ugly again, "He really didn't die." ”

"Don't worry." Zhang Xiao comforted and said affirmatively, "We have more advantages." ”

"Why?" Ji Qing didn't understand, "You also see my strength, although I don't think he is invincible, but it is undeniable that the [name] he inherited has a stronger power than mine, although it is ......, I am sure that his strength must be stronger than mine." ”

"I kind of understand where your power comes from." Zhang Xiao didn't pay attention to Ji Qing's suspicious pause, but said confidently, "The more famous the [name] you 'inherited' in myths and legends, that is, the more mysterious it is, the stronger the power you get, right?" ”

Seeing Ji Qing nodding, Zhang Xiao showed a hint of a smile, "Obviously, your strength comes from myths and legends, so you think that the first human recorded in the Bible is naturally far stronger than a medieval saint, which is usually true." ”

"Huh?" Ji Qing said that he was listening.

"The crux of the matter is that [name] brings more than just power." Zhang Xiao said unceremoniously, "In addition to strength, I believe that he is also burdened with the cause and effect of [name], which in Western terms, is fate." ”

The complicated expression on Ji Qing's face, she didn't expect Zhang Xiao to be so sensitive, and she already knew the key to her deliberate concealment.

"Just look at the way you look and know I'm right." Zhang Xiao patted her on the back, "When this trouble is solved, you have to tell me well." ”

Ji Qing nodded slightly.

Zhang Xiao took a breath and continued: "Looking at your appearance, whether it is his peasant outfit or your men's armor, it is obviously in line with the history of the original owner of [Name], I think it must not be your willingness, then this is the fate brought by [Name], and this is only a trivial part, and the fate that you really have to bear must also include...... Weakness. ”

Ji Qing's eyes lit up, and he somewhat understood, "You mean, he also inherited Adam's weakness?" She had just inherited this power, so she hadn't thought of it yet, but now that Zhang Xiao was a little bit younger, she understood, "That's right, it should be like this...... Was Adam's weakness a snake or a woman? ”

According to mythology, Adam was expelled from the Garden of Eden by God for stealing the forbidden fruit with Eve, and all this was a ploy of Satan, who turned into a serpent.

Obviously, Eve and Satan can be said to be the unavoidable hurdles in Adam's life, of course, Ji Qing did not think that it was necessary to find the "original" to fight Adam, and the symbolic snake and woman were obviously enough.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiao shook his head, "The direction is right, but I didn't grasp the point." He lit the Lorraine cross, "That's the point." ”

Zhang Xiao took two steps forward, looked at Adam, who was still struggling to crawl out of the bloody stump of the monster, and said, "Compared to this sinner who made all mankind bear the original sin because he stole the forbidden fruit, the pure girl who has seen miracles is obviously closer to God. ”

"You mean?" Ji Qing muttered.

"Summoning angels, of course." Zhang Xiao said with certainty, "You can do it, right?" In the legend of Joan of Arc, it is mentioned more than once that she saw an angel, and it was St. Michael, that is, Michael, the first archangel to be born. ”

"He is the God-appointed caretaker of the Garden of Eden...... Zhang Xiao nodded the banner in Ji Qing's hand and pointed to Adam, "and he is the sinner who was expelled from the Garden of Eden." ”

"They...... But it's a natural predator! ”
