Chapter Seventy-Six: The Wall of Darkness
"What does it mean to exist in the otherworld?"
Except for Kurumi Tokizaki who was present, no one else had a way to understand what Lu Qiu meant.
Because, in their memories, they should have been born here and existed here.
That's how Alex is......
"To put it simply, it is an existence that does not belong to this world."
Lu Qiu's fingers moved, and a large amount of blood spread out from the ground.
In the past two months, Lu Qiu has not strengthened any other skills, and the aspect of pure blood manipulation is much stronger.
These scarlet bloods float in mid-air, forming a bird's-eye map.
This is the shape of the border of Italy and the country.
This is the reason why they have traveled all the way from the land of Great Britain to the city......
The blood wriggled and squirmed, creating the illusion that it was shrinking, but in fact the size did not shrink, but Lu Qiu gradually shrunk from the map of Yihe Country to the map of this area.
"That's not the most important thing."
Lu Qiu's fingers drew a circle on the map made of blood.
"The important thing is that humanity is empowering itself in a variety of ways... However, the leader of it all, or the leading organization, is here. ”
"Is it the holy city of China?" Alex recognized the area that Lu Qiu had carved out, the country owned by the world's largest religion... A holy place in the minds of all people who believe in this religion.
Hearing the word Holy City, Lu Qiu noticed that Yuri and Arthas each had some strange mood swings.
After all, both of them were once part of the story, as exorcists......
"That's right, I think the rest of the people here, except for a certain elf named Miss Tokizaki, should be very clear about this country, right?"
Lu Qiu's eyes looked around the few people present one by one.
Where, is the holy land of light, all filthy things, are not qualified to step into, but... It's ridiculous that as a creature like a vampire that has tarnished the brilliance of the gods, Lu Qiu has once set foot in that country...... And when Lu Qiu was weak like an ordinary person, he was brought in by a bastard.
However, Lu Qiu should also be grateful to that bastard, it is because of him that Lu Qiu has the opportunity to see his sister being burned at the stake, and has the opportunity to deeply imprint this hatred in Lu Qiu's heart, and at the same time let Lu Qiu understand what kind of existence he is for human beings.
As for Arthas and Yuri, as exorcists, the country is a sacred place for all exorcists, and the reason why they hunt the dark things is to protect the city.
"Can you tell me about it?" Kurumi Tokizaki was very interested in this, she could always smell the scent of delicious 'things'.
"After the so-called 'Judgment Day,' a large number of humans went to that city to seek refuge... Now the city is the only one left to withstand the virus. ”
Alex absorbed a lot of human memories, but he was able to keep himself alive, and the information he just got was a fragment of some human brain.
"Now, that city is in this wasteland, and it is an ideal place for those humans, and it will be absolutely safe to get there."
Alex could sense the yearning of the humans for that city.
"I don't understand why this city can't be breached by an infected." This is what Alex cares about, as the prototype of the virus, he knows how terrible the black light virus is!
At present, what Alex knows has evolved, and there are two fifth-level infections equivalent to human A-level superpowers, and the fourth-level infections have exceeded 10,000, or even more!
These infectees are more powerful than humans, and their attacks are one-hit, which is where the most important thing is.
After being injured by the existence of the black light virus, even if it is only a slight scratch of the skin, it will only be eroded by the black light virus in the end and become the fate of the infected body.
Even if humans possess thermal weapons and superpowers, they will theoretically not be able to resist the never-ending tide of corpses.
"yes, that's why I didn't choose to attack this country in the first place."
If there's one thing in the world that Lu Qiu hates about it, it's definitely this country.
A place that any dark creature would hate!
But Lu Qiu didn't attack at the first time, but traveled around the world, speeding up the evolution of the zombies and eliminating the resistance forces around the world one by one before coming here.
"Wall of Darkness ......," Arthas's voice sounded faintly.
"What's that?" Alex had never heard such a strange term.
"It's... It is a legend that circulates among the exorcists of the Holy City. Yuri replied weakly, "When darkness covers the world, the light of the gods will return, and the light at the center of the faith will dispel all darkness and keep it out...... I thought it was just a legend, but when the infected approached the Holy City, it was really blocked by something invisible......"
What the hell does that mean! Alex is still confused.
"What this kid wants to say is that there is a realm around this city or country that absolutely refuses to be approached by dark creatures! All beings who are regarded as dark by that 'god' can't get close to that city......"
Lu Qiu helped Alex translate Yuri's words.
"That's why they've been able to survive this frenzy for two months, plus the Holy City has two of the strongest forces in the world."
A human being who is rated as a sixth-level life......
"Archbishop..."Yuli choked up and said the name of the person Lu Qiu was referring to, even if he became the mother of the virus, he couldn't help but be in awe.
"That's a problem, everyone here will be treated as dark creatures, right?" Kurumi Tokizaki looked at everyone present.
There is no suspense about Lu Qiu as a vampire, Arthas is the Lich King, not to mention the King of Darkness.
Since there is no way for zombies to set foot in that city, Alex and Yuri are a truth.
As for Kurumi Tokizaki?
In fact, she occasionally wandered around the city a few times, but unfortunately found that she had no way to enter, and was completely rejected by the city.
"If you leave them alone, one day they will starve to death."
Alex remembered that the city had contained too many people, more than the city could handle.
"No, no, no." Lu Qiu shook his head, as if he was very sorry: "I can't ignore it, because... It's not just this world, they seem to be doing something to touch another world now, and I don't want to end up with a drama of magicians vs. zombies, so we must destroy the last gathering place of mankind, the Holy City. ”
"So what to do? Crack down on that wall? Alex understood what Lu Qiu wanted to say.
Exorcists exist more like magicians than superpowers...... This kind of thing doesn't belong in this world, just like vampires shouldn't belong in this world.
"Ask questions." Lu Qiu looked around at everyone: "You... Do you believe in the existence of gods? ”
God?
"I don't believe that human beings worship beings who are more powerful than themselves and call them gods...... So, I don't believe in the existence of gods. ”
Lu Qiu pondered the cold texture of the stone in his hand.
"This barrier can't be created by some god, it must be somewhere, in that city, the messenger-like existence that created this barrier, as long as it is destroyed, the last territory of mankind will disappear forever."
