However, this time, the surface of the Shadow Mirror only flashed with a slight black arc, and nothing happened. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Virgi was stunned in the distance, Yuri really wasn't deliberately funny! Obviously he had already told him that using the Mirror of Shadows to simulate the Radiance of the Holy Feather or something was a trick to deceive people, and he was carrying the bent heavy sword to cut Baker at this time, obviously he could win a little initiative, and he had to play treasure Isn't it a waste of opportunity!

Facing Yuri, who was in a hurry, Baker bared his scorched teeth and laughed, "Slash Shotgun Form!"

Originally, the form of the chain blade cannon used the huge impact of steam to launch the blade, and then used the chain and winch to retract the blade. In the shotgun form, the jet port at the hilt of the sword is opened, and the hot steam directly kills the enemy at close range. I only heard a loud bang, and the white mist erupted like a fierce beast, and Yuri was burned by the hot gas, and quickly turned over and dodged backwards.

Both he and Baker understood that shotgun slashing was a terrifying weapon of mass destruction, and that no one could compete with slashing if it was to be killed in close combat.

"Although you sealed my melee attacks, I got a perfect score for my javelin throwing test. ”

Yuri distanced himself again and kicked up smoke and dust with his heavy sword, slashing through the debris of the collapsed buildings on the field, taking out the straight steel bars in the shards, and throwing his hand at Baker.

Beck was even more angry when he was bruised by the steel bars, swung his greatsword and slapped away the remaining steel bars, staring intently at the smoke and dust, and at the moment of the flickering cold light, he recognized Yuri's figure, shouted "Be impaled, damn heretic", and fired the blade violently in that direction.

Both Virgil and Baker heard the screams of Yuri being impaled in the smoke.

Virgie was horrified, and Baker was smug.

"Let this sin be cut into two parts. ”

Baker withdrew his sword, and a figure in the dust was dragged with it. Virgie's heart contracted violently, if Yuri was dragged back like this and hit the sword of slashing, he would definitely be split in two!

He hardly dared to look again, but before he closed his eyes, he saw the real appearance of the figure after being pulled out of the smoke array!

It was a huge piece of building debris, stuck here and there with steel bars stuck everywhere, like a sea urchin with teeth and claws!

The chains continued to retract, and this huge fragment of sea urchins was tantamount to a giant meteor hammer that was smashing into Baker! If the reaction was a little slow, Baker would definitely be smashed into a blur of flesh and blood.

In a hurry, Baker quickly lifted the crime, and the fragments changed their trajectory and swept over his head and smashed against the stone wall behind him, and suddenly the rubble flew and the steel bars danced wildly, and the place where Baker stood seemed to be a torrential rain of falling rocks.

Yuri walked out of the smoke and dust, unscathed. The screams just now were also deliberately faked, so that Baker thought he had succeeded and quickly retracted the blade. He slowly turned the heavy sword in his hand, and in his left hand he carried three or five steel bars on his shoulder, and smiled very happily.

Virgie's eyes widened, but he didn't expect that when Yuri was fighting, his rich combat experience and countless hard-earned battlefield instincts were still not inferior to the former knight generals who were facing the terrifying weapons of martial arts!

When the smoke cleared, Baker's black hair was pale with stone dust, and he was covered in blood, and he could barely stand up in agony, his eyes red.

"Damn, two damned ants. Baker coughed vigorously, "Ahem, I, the head of the Knights, have been forced so badly by two heretics!"

Baker raised his slash again and pointed at Yuri, who was walking slowly: "Ulysses! As long as the smage is still there, your 10,000 carving insect skills are useless! I can still pierce your heart!"

However, this time, the tip of the sword of the slashing sword rushed out two meters and fell to the ground with a bang, and the white steam sprayed from the sword body swirled wildly, but it no longer had the indomitable momentum just now.

"Slash is your crafted secret weapon, with an intricate structure that harnesses steam to switch the form of a greatsword at any time, turning it into an all-round weapon that can be used in long-range melee combat. ”

Yuri stood on the steel bar on the ground, and pointed his sword at Baker with a cold gaze: "However, the biggest weakness of this weapon is precisely the four words of delicacy and complexity. ”

Virgy suddenly understood that the huge impact just now smashed the steam vent of the giant sword into deformation, so when Baker shot the blade again, the steam leaked a lot from the deformation, and most of the impact force was lost, and he could no longer shoot the blade into the distance like a cannonball, so the blade only rushed out two or three meters before falling to the ground weakly.

"So now, it's my turn to seal your ranged combat abilities. ”

Baker could no longer launch an artillery bombardment, and could only face Yuri's steady stream of javelins thrown at him. Although he swung his sword with great difficulty to block the countless steel bars, he was eventually pierced through his shoulder by an extremely angled steel bar.

"Tell me, Baker. ”

Yuri pointed his heavy sword at Baker's throat with a sad expression: "Why do you want to kill Teacher Qiao Luya? If people like you who have blood debts on their bodies and let those who trust you bear the sin can survive, why does Teacher Qiao Luya who saved this city have to die? Is it because she has a dark destiny that she deserves to die more than a sinner like you?"

Baker coughed desperately, his eyes still fierce, and his arrogant smile never went away.

"The fact that the head of the Knights of Law Enforcement was interrogated by heretics is really an unprecedented bizarre. Ulysses, you can push me into a corner, but I don't want to bow to heresy. After all, I am the Law, I am the Great Sanctuary of the Thorns of the Holy Blood, and you are just turning your back on the dregs of the light. ”

Baker looked up at Yuri, "Do you remember the legend of the Goddess of Thorns?"

Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, in the "War of Light and Darkness", when a maiden city was about to be broken, when even the brave men of Faruna had already retreated, they looked back at their hometown, willing to use their lives to protect the city, to isolate the invaders, and after the last prayer, they stabbed the dagger into their hearts.

The stone wall against which Baker leans is inscribed with a relief mural of a young girl's suicide. The girl's blood dripped down the blade, and under her heart, there was an emerald green disc made of thorns, which caught the blood without leaking, indicating that it was a sacrifice to the goddess of the earth.

"It's not just a legend, it's the church's deepest secret. Baker took out the dagger from his bosom with his left hand, bit the dagger in his mouth, the blade pointed outward, and said with great courage, "As the supreme enforcer of Holy Thorn City, if you are willing to sacrifice your life and sacrifice blood, you can activate the sacred thorns that have been turned into stone sculptures, and pierce the heart of every heretic with its sharp thorns." ”

Baker raised his left hand and flipped his head, causing the blade of the dagger to slash through the artery, sending red blood spurting wildly.

Then he placed his blood-spurting hand on the Disc of Thorns, and with the last bit of impending arrogance, he said to Yuri, "I give my life and ask the goddess of thorns to come and destroy heresy. In a little while the thorns above your heads will be fully resurrected, and you will die with me in the boundless fear of the emerald green. ”

There was another rumbling sound from the Great Chapel, and the earth in the atrium shook again.

Yuri ran to Virgie's side: "Don't say it's a secret that even you don't know!"

Virgie was helpless: "But I really didn't know that the Great Sanctuary still hid such a secret. ”

Yuri said in a panic, "Hundreds of years ago, the thorns wiped out the dark servants who came to attack, and I am afraid that the power is not covered. If we don't think of a way, we'll both have to die here. ”

"Maybe I'll be fine, the Goddess of Thorns destroyed the Servants of Darkness in the first place, and my destiny is not the Mandate of Darkness. Virgie said with a tired smile.

Hey, you know I'm unlucky, and you can still speak in such a relaxed tone, what are you going to do!

Virgie took off her monocle, and the pupil of her left eye glowed with a bright seven-colored rainbow, as if she was struggling to scan the surrounding environment that was about to change drastically. Yuri guessed that this was how Letala was used to "pre-write" the Mandate of Heaven, and it was unusual that Virgy seemed to use his left eye to see things with great physical exertion, and his face gradually turned pale and cold sweat hung on his cheeks, as if he was more tired than dragging a hundred-pound shot put up the mountain.

But even so, Virgy failed to find a glimmer of life.

The thorns that obscured the sky in the atrium gradually moved and began to rub against each other, and the rubble and dust kept falling. Baker's face was losing its color, and the blood was spurting less and less, but even so, Baker was extremely excited.

"Virgil, you were just a pawn of mine at first, and as a pawn, you were obediently used, and you even tried in vain to challenge the fate I arranged for you! Unfortunately, in the end, your fate is still playing in the palm of my hand. ”

Baker was right, and in the end it was he who chose to sacrifice himself rather than accept the judgment that Virgy brings. Virgi looked at the person in front of him who had killed his life, even if he died in front of him, it was ultimately an escape, when he gave up his life to flee to the rainbow of reincarnation, I am afraid that the smile was still proud, after all, there was not a second, willing to bow his head, carrying his own sin.

It's too frustrating.

However, the shaking of the Great Chapel stopped, and the thorns of the rock that had just come to life suddenly stopped, became pale and brittle, and then a crack spread rapidly on it, and then the thorns seemed to be dead, and turned into cracked rock, and rumbled into the ground of the atrium.

It wasn't just Yuri and Virgy who were shocked.

Even Baker was suddenly in utter despair.

Even if Baker had the heart to give his life.

The goddess of thorns in the past did not respond to Baker's sacrifice.

In the end, the Goddess of Thorns did not follow her oath that "as long as the chief knight of law enforcement gives his life, she can summon the thorns that remove sin and punish evil", but chose to make her position clear with silence-

"I ...... Betrayed by the goddess...... I couldn't unleash the miracle of thorns......"

Baker knelt in the rock-crumbling atrium, the rays of the setting sun shining on his round-eyed, unfocused, face.
