Königsberg in 1942 was a place that had absolutely nothing to do with peace, as the area closest to the Red Empire in the traditional territory, the Sandezi Empire recruited troops and set up camp here, while capturing some of the city's residents into the concentration camp to make soap, and on the other hand, recruiting troops and horses to set up camp, further strengthening this military fortress in the Far East.

Bai He, who was wearing a long white trench coat, and Aresta Crowley, who was wearing a long black trench coat, were walking on the streets in the middle of the night, and their own magical power made the passing Swastika soldiers ignore them, and Bai He looked at the old houses on the side of the street and the patrolling Swastika-kun, and suddenly couldn't help but start sighing.

"Why are you sighing?"

Shirakawa shook his head, looking at the scenery on the side of the street, and began to have a rare sense of hypocrisy, compared to the history he knew, the future situation of the city was amazing, but there was no way to explain the reason to Aresta.

"Because of stupid war?" asked Aresta, "the boring trick of human self-elimination?"

"Don't tell me your knowledge of war is so superficial, Dr. Crowley. Bai He sneered: "I just lament the disaster caused by the war, whether the cause of the war is the inevitable process of the development of civilization, or the nonsense of some people who have nothing to do; ”

"This kind of thing is very unconvincing for you to say, Mr. Bai. Aresta retorted disapprovingly: "Those agents and cultists on the train yesterday probably thought so. ”

"I didn't kill them. Bai He glared.

"They will never be grateful to you, Mr. Bai. Aresta chuckled, "I think they'd probably rather die immediately." ”

"I myself also want to survive and develop, and I can't just sacrifice myself for others in the face of the guy who threatens my safety, right?" Bai He smiled and said: "The power and resources that may be involved in the behavior have reached the level of you and me, and the competitive environment can not be called benign at all, and the work of creating tragedy ~ I will get used to it if I do more." Ha, I don't look like a scumbag with double standards?"

"I know. Aresta laughed, with a hint of understanding in her laughter: "Sometimes success is accompanied by evil deeds, isn't it?"

"Don't you find it very boring to talk about this superficial righteousness and evil before confronting that gentleman? Bai He picked up his pipe and looked at the sky: "Think broader." In some ways, they have been God's spokesmen. ”

The church has never liked this argument. Aresta smiled sarcastically, "I'm a little skeptical about whether it was the right decision for me to come to see him." ”

"Are you scared?" asked Shirakawa, staring at Aresta Crowley's trembling fingers.

"Yes, I'm afraid. Aresta Crowley's eyes widened, and sweat kept running down her forehead: "Let me be quiet for a while before I reach my destination." ”

Shirakawa shrugged, he could understand Aresta's state of mind at this time, and he could understand where this fear came from.

Capable of standing at the apex of the wizarding world and what would become known as the 'scientific community', Aresta Crowley was no cowardly and incompetent.

Fear is not an emotion worthy of criticism, and Osamu Tezuka believes that understanding fear is the manifestation of a person's true mental maturity.

It's just that when people's psychology is in violent turmoil, it is easy to expose hidden weakness. Hesitation and fear are completely normal reactions.

What matters is the choice under fear is to turn away or move on.

Shirakawa looked at Aresta's heavy but solid footsteps, and his heart was touched for a moment.

But do you, the hanging man, really trust me so much?

Bai He looked at the thick black trench coat soaked with sweat and shrugged his shoulders speechlessly.

Silence is a luxury at this time.

Footsteps came from all directions. Shirakawa snapped his fingers, and a spark shone from his pipe, rising with a curling aroma. As the voice drew closer, a large number of magicians, priests, and even soldiers of the Swastika Party poured out.

Sure enough, it has become the target of the whole world.

But if you challenge the dragon, you will have an accident.

The white dragon sighed, the huge wing-like light condensed behind him, and a playful look appeared in his red eyes.

......

"Miss Schwartz, the battlefield has been cleared. Standing at the makeshift command post at the mouth of the alley, Otto Rasch, commander of the Königsberg garrison, said to Lola Stuart, who had a pseudonym.

He looked at the stitching marks on Miss Schwartz's body, and forced his gaze, which was mixed with pity and disgust, to press down.

As a high-ranking officer in the Imperial Army, Otto Rasch was not ignorant of the more real world.

He was secretly horrified that he had heard about what the church was doing, and even the head of the Vanzika Party had formed the 'Ancestral Heritage Society' seven years earlier, and it seemed that another office had been established at the same time, with the purpose of replacing the role of the church.

He had heard that the church had often fought with strange things in unknown corners for many years, facing unpredictable dangers, looking at the face of the girl in front of him, Otto Rasch was secretly terrified, a girl of this age should be innocent, even if it was a girl in his family, at this age full of allegiance to the Führer, but who would actually know what the slogan he shouted meant?

And this girl from the church was already covered in scars when she was so old, and she looked like a rag doll sewn up after being blown up by a bombshell.

It's a cruel world.

He listened to the silent voice in the distance, and was a little strange: "Madam, the encirclement over there should have been closed." ”

"You want to ask why there's no sound at all?" Lola Stuart smiled, the stitching marks on the corners of her mouth made her expression gloomy, she obviously knew this herself, and the corners of her mouth only hooked slightly, "I don't know why it became quiet, but the battle has begun." ”

As they crossed the alleyway, the astonishing light and explosions of the road came into view, but Otto Rasch's expression became shocked.

He saw that half of the buildings had been razed to the ground, the ground had become potholed in the violent explosion, and all the weapons of the Swastika Army had spewed tongues of fire, but without exception there was no sound.

Cold sweat flowed down the forehead of this Imperial Army general, it was one thing to hear of extraordinary power, and it was another thing to have seen it.

Lola Stuart looked at Aresta who was walking in the flames a little distracted, and the boy who was floating in the sky with his wings outstretched, and his brow, which had burned his eyebrows, furrowed: "Don't get close, immediately analyze the source of this mute spell." ”

The nun beside her searched for a while in the thick information bag, and her expression gradually became frightened: "Lady Lola, it is another magic whose source is completely unrecognizable. ”

"As unrecognizable as that blasphemous and filthy spell in the train?"

"Yes, yes, Miss Lola. The nun said with some panicked expression: "No, there are too many schools of magic in the world, and we can't retrieve them at all when we record and recite them on paper." ”

"Can't retrieve it? If you don't know the source, you can't carry out the most efficient countermeasures, and the magic forces can't even pronounce the spell, so what can you do to fight this heresy?"

Lola Stuart shook her head in disgust, and a thought popped into her mind.

Perhaps there should be a way to create something specifically that stores all the magical materials in the world and can be retrieved at any time.

In this way, the spells cast by the heretics can not be hidden, and even if they encounter new magic created by themselves, they can quickly find a way to counter it.

The inspiration flashed through her mind, but the battle was already not good.

"Look, you want to be quiet, but I made it for you. Shirakawa sighed, and the sound that shook the air did not spread.

An ice shield blocked the energy generated by the bullets and explosions, and he looked at the well-trained priests and troops who still hadn't given up the attack, and decided to fight quickly.

He chanted in a low voice, drawing power from the angel, and another blue light slowly began to spread around, illuminated by the blue light, the priest's body flashed with protection, blocking out the terrible magical effect, but something was wrong with the large group of soldiers.

General Ottolasch looked at the chaotic army and turned pale, and finally understood the reason why the church did not recommend the army to follow the battle.

"Blasphemy!" Lola Stuart was furious: "Quick! Release the hounds!"

A tall magician nodded, pulled out an ancient dog training stick, threw a huge collar out, and a bloodied huge hound appeared in the middle of the city's road, a pair of fierce eyes, staring at Aresta and roaring.

Aresta awoke from his trance, and as the hound appeared, blood began to flow down his thighs and his teeth began to glow.

"Kill it. Aresta looked at Shirakawa and said in an accentuated lip, "At least five years will make this mark invalid." ”

Shirakawa nodded.

Lola Stuart looked nervously at the Hound and the mage who unfurled the spirit suit behind him, for this operation, the Puritan sect mobilized several of the most elite mage troops of the necessary evil, except for the Styx Hound Gam, the other battle spirit suits were also very powerful.

What happened on the battlefield quickly ruined her plans, and she saw an astonishing huge white creature appear on the street, its twenty-five-meter-long body swinging long, and a large number of mages who were caught off guard flew out one after another.

The monster's huge body pressed down, and the body of the giant dog Gam was instantly torn apart.

It flapped its wings and roared silently, and suddenly a shower of snow fell from the sky.

"Let's go. Lorastuat was shocked and ordered: "Retreat!"

The church and the army fled in a hurry, and only stopped in horror until they were two streets away.

"Ms. Schwartz, what the hell is that monster?"

"Dragon, it's a dragon. Lola gritted her teeth viciously: "I didn't expect it to be such a monster." ”

"Lady Lola, it seems that we can't stop them from reaching the untouchable, so what should we do next?" asked one of the priests.

"You can't just leave it at that. Lola ordered in a low voice: "Go to the royal family and take out King Arthur's sword in stone." ”

She stared coldly at the blizzard-blocked streets in the distance: "The blasphemers cannot be allowed to go free in this way, even if they come into contact with the untouchable realm, they will always come out again." ”

......

"You don't seem surprised?" In the snow, Shirakawa turned back into his prototype and continued to follow Aresta towards the building whose shell was frozen with a layer of ice.

"Dragons are not rare creatures in the Transcendent World, but dragons who study science are really rare. Aresta shrugged his shoulders, seemingly fully recovering from his trance, he looked at the faint tooth marks on his pants and said, "At least I want to thank you, this time I destroyed the Whip of Garm, at least for a few years, it will be difficult for the Puritans to find me." ”

"I'm a dragon anyway, how can I not even beat a dog?" Shirakawa smiled as Aresta stopped in front of the chapel, "It's not a former residence, it's not a tomb, it's not Königsberg University, are you sure it's here?"

"Yes, it was his favorite church to visit when he was alive, and that's something that few people know. Aresta said, "According to the description in that little poem, this should be the edge of the human and divine realms. ”

"And the light of heaven is eternal?"

Aresta brought down the idols and crosses, stuffed them under the table, extinguished the candles, closed the door, and closed the curtains to block out the light of the stars and moons shining through the windows.

"It's so simple? The intersection of night and white, it won't be just waiting for dawn here. In the darkness, Bai He froze for a moment.

"Try it first, it's the best explanation I can think of. ”

Aresta whispered.

Shirakawa shrugged his shoulders as he yawned and began to wait, watching Aresta grow restless.

He was also a little anxious, he believed that Aresta had calculated the time to come, and it was almost dawn when he came, and for such a long time, if he and Aresta had solved the puzzle correctly, they should have reacted by now.

But the nonsense is that all the places that can see the outside are blocked, and in this confined space, it seems that there is only one way to wait.

He watched Aresta walk to the door, hesitated for a long time, and finally pulled hard.

Bai He's eyes lit up.

When you open the door, you will not see the steps in front of the church and the city. It was pure darkness.

Could it be that you are right?
