Chapter 31: The Abyss and the Depths
The church was very deserted at this time, and there was no human figure in most places, Zhang Lin wandered around the empty corridor for a while, only to find a church knight guarding the door of a room with his back to him near the chapel.
"Hey, buddy, where have all the people gone?"
"In ...... In ...... Face. The knight's voice sounded weird, like a jammed gear.
"What's wrong with your standing guard?" Zhang Lin complained, and then crossed the other party to see what was in the room, and he vaguely heard a very faint scream in the half-open door.
The church knight slowly turned, his head bowed, feeling as if he was feeling a little uncomfortable and his movements a little sluggish.
Zhang Lin knocked on the opponent's breastplate casually, ready to push open the door.
In the next second, the church knight, who was originally in slow motion every time, suddenly burst out with an astonishing speed, and the two-handed big sword attached to him slashed down from in front of Zhang Lin.
Zhang Lin narrowly avoided such a close slash, but a strand of hair in front of his nose slowly fell.
After a brief moment of surprise, Zhang Lin took advantage of the fact that the other party had not raised the giant sword that had smashed on the ground again, and kicked the opponent in the abdomen violently, kicking the church knight out.
"I'll just say it's as simple as not dying and getting sick," Zhang Lin quickly armed himself and looked at the church knights who got up from the ground, "Are all the knights in the church already alive?" ”
However, when the knight raised his head, Zhang Lin realized that he had made a mistake, because the position of the opponent's eyes under the helmet was emitting a deep red light, and something black like aquatic plants came out of the gap in the helmet.
The red-eyed knight raised his big sword and slashed again, but this time his wide-open attack did not touch the corners of Zhang Lin's clothes at all.
"Bang-"
The door of the room was slammed open by the knight's retreating body, and the whole person fell inside, the crystal in Zhang Lin's hand flashed with golden light, and the knight lying on the ground had a complete hole in his chest at this time, but he could hardly see the blood flowing out.
At this time, the scene in the depths of the room was completely exposed to Zhang Lin's eyes, several travelers in shabby cloth robes were restrained on the stone bed, a large amount of blood flowed all over the ground, several obese people wearing church robes were cutting the innocent person's body with knives, pieces of bloody flesh were placed in a metal basin on the side, and one of them also stretched out his tongue to lick the blood on the blade.
With the thud of the door slamming open, the people inside all stared at each other, including the priests, and the two tall Templars whose eyes were exactly the same as those of the knight guarding the door, and the blood-red glow was particularly eye-catching.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see anything~" Zhang Lin waved his hand and was about to close the door again.
"Boom-"
The nearly three-meter-tall Templar rushed over with a single kick over the corpse of his colleague, and the huge hammer smashed through the wooden door and slammed it on the floor in front of Zhang Lin, causing the otherwise flat ground to sink and debris scattered.
"If Alice had been here, she would have been able to compete with you," Zhang Lin said as he jumped backwards, but soon another Templar rushed out, holding the handle of the hammer in both hands.
The wooden fence at the edge of the corridor was torn open by the giant hammer in an instant, and the flying sawdust crashed into Zhang Lin's shield and fell to the ground.
"What's going on?"
There was a shout from the bottom of the hallway, and several normal church knights appeared out of nowhere.
Before Zhang Lin could answer, the red-eyed Templar held his hammer high and launched another attack, Zhang Lin bent down and rolled to avoid the other party's sweep, and came behind him, and then the golden light skyrocketed to kill him
The knight slammed down the broken hallway, landing right in front of the knights.
One of them was about to step forward to pick up the Templar who had fallen to the ground, when he heard Zhang Lin, who was fighting the remaining Templar, shouting, "Don't come near him, they are infected by the abyss!" ”
The knight of the Church, who had already stepped forward, was thrown away with a hammer, his breastplate deflated as if it had been run over by a car, and his whole body was smashed against the wall, and then collapsed to the ground like a puppet with a broken string.
"Go and call Mistress Guda!" Although he knew that the Templars were far from ordinary church knights, he still gasped when he saw the tragic situation of his companions, but the first one did not retreat, and while drawing his weapons, he asked his companions to inform the hero Guda, who had just arrived at the church today.
This is a world where there is fire and there is light, and the light represented by the first fire corresponds to the darkness represented by the abyss, and after the loss of humanity, it will be swallowed by the soul of darkness, and there is a lot of darkness precipitated in the abyss.
And the Fran Immortals, who have received the inheritance of Arterius, also guarded the ruins of the Abyss eruption in the name of the Abyss Watchers.
However, this situation in the church is not affected by the abyss that spreads out of the ruins, but it should be the dark power of Eldridge sealed in the depths of the church, although the dark is somewhat different from the power of the abyss, or a weakened version of the abyss, its essence is a manifestation of the darkness of human nature.
At this moment, this was not the only place where the situation occurred, and soon, shouts of killing were heard everywhere in the originally silent church. Several silver figures rushed out of the room, and several knights of the Sword of the Dark Moon shuttled through the corridors.
After Zhang Lin repeated his old trick to bring down another Templar, several orbs that were spinning in mid-air rushed out of the room with a black shard, and the wooden door that had been cracked was corroded by the spell.
Even though Zhang Lin dodged to the side, these spells had the ability to track, and they slammed into Zhang Lin's shield with a thud, although it was not immediately broken, but the shield of holy light shone in the spell attack and began to dim.
The priests inside used the dark magic derived from the dark power, which was extremely opposed to the Light.
When Zhang Lin came to the door of the room, he saw that the red-eyed priests seemed to be in a rage, two of them remembered to cast spells, and the other looked fat and ball-like guy rushed directly with a dagger.
After blasting the fat man away, Zhang Lin hesitated for a moment and did not rush forward again, but took out two grenades and threw them at the two guys who were still maintaining the spell casting action.
"Bye-bye!"
Zhang Lin turned sideways and hid behind the wall, only to hear a loud noise, and some fragments of tables and chairs flew out of the door.
When he looked again, the room was unrecognizable, with pieces of flesh and blood all over the floor.
