Chapter 12: Forbidden Fruit?
The Carlo that Morris saw was also seen.
It was a figure shrouded in dazzling white light, and it was wrapped up and down with a powerful and unrivaled momentum that rushed towards Carlo.
Carlo has always felt the momentum of the strange bird demon that almost ate him, and even stronger than the strange bird demon.
Almost instantly, Carlo's black robe was torn apart, and a pair of wide bats with a wingspan of nearly two meters on one side broke away from his back.
Carlo grabbed the stunned Talia and quickly dodged to the side.
"Boom!" there was a loud bang, and the spire of the tall tower on which Carlo had just stood was shattered by someone from the outside, and the gray rock rolled down.
"Sure enough, it's a demon from hell. ”
Carlo finally saw the appearance of the visitor, a handsome young man with resolute eyebrows, and his eyes were full of burning anger as he stared at Carlo.
Carlo glanced at the two-handed sword that also released this dazzling white light in the hand of the visitor, looking at it was quite extraordinary, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Even if the level is higher than yourself, the equipment is still so good, how can you fight this?
Let's find a chance to escape, Carlo has a lot of awareness as a demon.
But apparently the young and powerful Knight of Light had his eyes firmly on him.
Carlo casually threw Talia on a rooftop and ordered her through a soul contract: "Talia, do whatever it takes to cover me." ”
Talia comprehended, "Dear master, everything in Talia is ready to be sacrificed for you. ”
The white light on the Holy Light Knight had begun to condense again, and to make matters worse, a spell chant sounded in Carlo's ears, and the nasty aura of holy light around him seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.
There's also a powerful priest in the shadows!
"Talia, get the ghouls up to speed!"
Carlo was in a state of panic, and this was the second time he felt the threat of death. Just like the Strange Bird Demon that time, although he was much stronger, he still had no power to resist.
Talia is not even an ant to the strong men in light and darkness, he can only bet on whether these two sons of divine grace have a heart as high and great as the Holy Light. In the face of the slaughtered civilians, whether to save them or choose to kill themselves.
The ghouls below rushed towards the remaining civilians like crazy, and Talia even performed a "corpse explosion", and the ghouls who fought with the living could not be said to explode with a "bang" in the next moment.
This has rapidly reduced the number of remnants, and there have been ghouls tearing the throat of a priest.
"You damned demon!" Oliver glared at Carlo fiercely, eager to cleanse him with the light now, but the innocent civilians below were struggling, and he could relieve them with a single blow.
Oliver hesitated.
Carlo saw hope in Oliver's eyes, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face, adding fuel to the fire: "Come, kill me, those souls who wail in hell will thank you for what you have done." ”
Carlo's words became the last straw in Oliver's heart.
Even if you kill this demon yourself, the dead still can't be resurrected, and Elijah's magic is also ready, the demon will definitely die, and it seems that there is no shortage of himself.
Oliver finally obeyed the call of a benevolent knight and dropped a sentence: "You can't run away." He turned and flew towards the group of ghouls below.
The dark purple heart in Carlo's chest was beating fast, and the holy light locked on his body had already taken shape, and there was a line between life and death, and he roared madly in his heart: "Exchange, blood bat technique." ”
Coaxing the Holy Light Knight to give up the flanking attack on him is just hope, this is his real life.
At the same time, the chanting stopped, and a dazzling light fell from the sky straight towards Carlo.
Carlo's whole person turned into countless blood-red little bats with a "bang" and flew away.
The holy light was like a blade of divine punishment, and the little bats that were struck by it hissed and disappeared into slag, but there was still a small group of small bats that escaped and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
A quarter of an hour later, all the ghouls in the city were purified by the Holy Light and turned into a pile of dead flesh, and Maurice was saved by Oliver just before he fell, and he commanded the remaining guards to gather the corpses together, douse them with tung oil, and the whole sky was red with the blazing flames.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty Elijah. Oliver's face was filled with guilt, "I shouldn't have given up that sword, or the demon wouldn't have escaped."
Elijah said in a tone of regret and relief, "Oliver, you made the right choice. ”
Oliver stroked his greatsword and solemnly swore an oath: "By the glory of the Knights of the Holy Light, I will slay evil." ”
Immediately after, Oliver's gaze fell on Taria, who had a blank face beside him, "Your Majesty, do you want to execute this witch who has fallen into darkness?"
Elijah shook his head slightly, "The demon was seriously injured by me, and now even the crystal ball can't find out his whereabouts. With his minions, we can find the demon through her. ”
"Understood. Oliver clenched his sword and stared into the distance, his eyes blazing with golden flames, and although it was his own choice, his hatred for Carlo deepened.
...
In the dense Lost Forest, a small group of bats flapped their wings, and the birds and beasts that passed along the way were sucked clean of blood and died.
When the living creatures in this area were almost extinct, the bats gathered together and turned into a black mist, and a demon with a pale face as paper fell out of the black mist.
Carlo's face was weak, and he struggled to lean his back against a large tree behind him.
He was badly wounded.
The Blood Bat Technique was originally a secret technique for self-harm and escape in blood magic, and he was also wiped by the Holy Light, which was simply worse.
Carlo once again experienced the same powerlessness as he was born, and he needed to regain his strength as soon as possible.
Carlo slumped on the ground, his mind sinking into his mind, and he remembered that there was an item in the system store that could help him heal.
Soon, Carlo's eyes lit up and he found it, this is it!
"The fruit of iniquity: The sacred tree that fell from heaven to the abyss grows by absorbing the sins of the world. Its fruit possesses a powerful hateful power and is the best tonic for demons. ”
"Exchange price: 1,000 evil points. ”
Carlo silently exchanged in his heart, and a fist-sized bright red fruit appeared in his hand, looking very similar to an apple from his previous life.
"The fruit of the sacred tree of heaven is good for the devil. Is it the tree of good and evil in the Garden of Eden? Is this the forbidden fruit that led Adam and Eve to fall in legend?"
Carlo looked strange, but didn't think much about it, and opened his mouth to bite into the fruit.
The fruit tasted very delicious, and even the pit was swallowed by Carlo.
After a while, the flesh of the lower belly turned into a mysterious force that spread through Carlo's body.
