Chapter 128: The Key
When did the Shadow Fiend come in?!
At this time, no one had time to think about this problem, because the Shadow Fiend's attack was so sharp, and they couldn't detect the direction from which the Shadow Fiend would attack, and for a while, the three people in the room fell into disadvantage.
Gaunt gritted his teeth and got up from the ground, pulling a half-meter-long machete out of the bag on the table, but was quickly knocked out by another Shadow Fiend, and the machete was taken out of his hand.
And Jun Chengzong and Judy were not having a good time, as soon as Judy pulled out the pure iron dagger stained with holy water from behind him, he was attacked by the Shadow Demon from behind, not only was the dagger snatched away, but the whole person was also thrown out, shattering the glass plate used for decoration on the wall, and his body was scratched by broken glass in many places.
It wasn't until this time that Jun Chengzong figured out why Yula had gone to the extra mile of setting up an altar to summon the Shadow Demon to deal with Gaunt.
Even the battle-hardened Gaunt was helpless to take the Shadow Demon, let alone Jun Chengzong.
The Shadow Demon has left wounds one after another on Jun Chengzong's body countless times, but every time Jun Chengzong counterattacks, it seems that the Shadow Demon is everywhere.
What to do?
Looking at the blood flowing from the corner of Judy's mouth, the dice on Jun Chengzong's wrist trembled like crazy.
Could it be that these three of them died here like this?
No way!
There must be something that can be done!
Jun Chengzong was slightly distracted, and the attack of the Shadow Demon came again as promised.
"Uh-"
With a muffled sound, Jun Chengzong was thrown by the Shadow Demon into the broken glass all over the ground, and half of his body was suddenly soaked in blood.
But even so, Jun Chengzong still wanted to struggle to stand up.
There must be something that can be done! You can't just wait here to die!
Just as Jun Chengzong stretched out his hand to help himself up, his hand suddenly touched something in Gaunt's bag.
Signal torch?
That's right!
Jun Chengzong suddenly remembered that Gaunt had dealt with an incident involving a Shadow Demon, and that Gaunt had used a magnesium lamp to limit the shadow where the Shadow Demon was hiding, so that he could eliminate it.
Jun Chengzong bit the tip of his tongue fiercely to make his spirit clearer, then turned over and took the signal torch in his hand, and shouted to Gaunt and Judy: "Close your eyes!" ”
The signal torch is used to call for help in an extremely critical situation, and the bright light emitted by it is generally not recommended for people to look directly at it.
If such a signal torch is lit in such a small room, the bright light emitted by it can not only erase most of the shadows, but also temporarily blind people.
Hearing Jun Chengzong's reminder, Judy and Gaunt closed their eyes for the first time, and at this moment, Jun Chengzong suddenly lit the signal torch.
The flare ignited a dazzling red light in an instant, so strong that even if they closed their eyes, they still needed to block the light emitted by the flare with their hands to keep their eyes from being injured.
People are still like this, let alone those Shadow Demons.
The moment the red light appeared, the Shadow Demon quickly flew into the shadows outside the window, like a rabbit discovering an eagle soaring in the sky, and finally stopped attacking Jun Chengzong and the three of them.
"Let's go!" Jun Chengzong threw the signal torch to the ground, pulled up the equipment bag in the room with one hand, picked up Judy who was not lightly injured next to him with the other, and shouted to Gunter on the other side at the same time.
In this way, the three men stumbled out of the hotel with a body injury, perhaps because it was too late, and these movements did not alarm the hotel staff.
The three of them stumbled to the side of the car, Jun Chengzong pulled the car door, threw the equipment in his hand into the back seat of the car, and then helped Judy, who was a little sluggish, to sit in the passenger seat.
But at this time, Gaunt was not with Jun Chengzong.
"Gaunt, come with us." Jun Chengzong opened the driver's door, but saw that Gaunt had no intention of getting into the car, so he couldn't help beckoning and said.
However, Gaunt shook his head slightly: "No, it will hurt you if I go with you." ”
"What?" Jun Chengzong was stunned for a moment, raised his hand to wipe the blood flowing from the corner of his eye, and looked at Gaunt, not quite understanding what he meant.
Gaunt covered the wound on his shoulder and said very seriously, "I'm hunting those demons, but those demons are also hunting me. ”
"Today's events are already very illustrative of all this, and if I go with you, it will definitely affect you." Gaunt swore by it.
Jun Chengzong and Judy desperately searched for Gaunt, but now that they have finally found it, he wants to leave?
Jun Chengzong turned his head to look at Judy, who was in a coma in the passenger seat, and said to Gaunt: "But, how can you deal with those demons yourself, let us help you!" ”
"No need," Gaunt chuckled, took out a small paper bag from his body, threw it to Jun Chengzong, and said, "If you really want to help me, go find the Tower of Babel and stop Kutulu's resurrection." ”
Jun Chengzong took the paper bag thrown by Gaunt, but found that this thing seemed to be some years old, and the outside was wrapped in yellowed parchment: "What is this?" ”
"This is the key to the Tower of Babel, and there are some things you can use." Gaunt covered his shoulders and said to Jun Chengzong.
Hearing Gaunt say this, Jun Chengzong used his hand hard and pinched it slightly, but found that it seemed to be a round thing inside.
"Metal medals?" Jun Chengzong immediately looked at Gaunt and wondered, "The key? ”
"That's right, this thing contains the energy that can open the Tower of Babel," Gaunt continued, "This is the one kept by the Exorcist Court, and there should be many scattered in the hands of those demons, so you must not let this thing fall into the hands of demons." ”
Jun Chengzong looked at the parchment bag wrapped in a metal medallion in his hand, nodded to Gaunt, and said, "Don't worry, I will not let them succeed." ”
Hearing Jun Chengzong's promise, Gang Te Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly turned around as if he had finally lifted the burden from his shoulders and walked into the distance.
However, Gaunt didn't take two steps out, and suddenly realized something, turned his head and added to Jun Chengzong: "Oh, there is one more thing. ”
Jun Chengzong was about to sit in the car, when he suddenly heard Gaunt's words, and immediately gave a questioning look.
"Take care of Judy," Gaunt said, gesturing at Judy in the passenger seat, "If something happens to her, I won't spare you!" ”
Jun Chengzong pursed his lips and nodded heavily.
"Also," Gaunt was about to leave, when he suddenly turned his head again and said to Jun Chengzong, "Well, only one drop of holy water is enough, and the demon can detect the smell of holy water. ”
