Chapter 1168: The Night of the Transcendental Clearing (Finale)
"Dead~"
"Are you sure?"
"The Seal Spell has been activated, and even if you don't die with the blessing of the Dominating Power, you will sooner or later become a dead man, but this time our Grand Knight Captain is dead worthless. β
Being killed in an instant, and in the state where the curse of blood is activated, a great knight can instantly rise to the level of a sea blue knight in a short period of time, but in this way, the members of the sect are still killed by the other party like crushing ants, obviously the other party, as an extraordinary person, is also a terrifying existence in the upper layer of the pyramid in this system.
The believer of the Killing Master, Ashered, observed the magic guide in his hand, which recorded all the believers who had planted the Blood Spell, and it showed that a person had already died, and he was crushed by someone under the power of activating the curse, but fortunately, the activated spell would burn his soul at the moment of his death, and the transcendent who defeated this believer did not want to get any useful information from it, even if it was a necromancer here, he did not want to put the broken soul back together.
Pouting, Ashered threw the magic guide aside, lay on the sofa and closed his eyes and said: "It's really unfortunate, it's only been a long time since I came to this city, and a stupid person was pulled out and killed, and now the transcendents lurking in this city have also begun to move around hunting. β
"Specifically for the hunt of the Transcendental, it seems that they don't want to interfere with the day-to-day operations of the city. β
Sophia picked up the magic guide that was thrown away by Ashered, and not long after the dispersal of the action, some members were discovered, and the members of their own side seemed to be preparing to escape from the city, in this case, there is really no need to accuse the other party of being afraid of absconding, after all, it is also good to save some more strength, but their own people were still killed after leaving the city and were crushed by brute force so quickly, it is obvious that the transcendents hiding in the shadows of the city have become serious.
Walking to the window, Sophia slightly lifted the curtain and looked at the brightly lit upper area not far away and the lower area that fell into boundless darkness, the number of lights at night has become the dividing line between the rich and the poor in the city, but even in the upper area where the lights are the most, the whole city is also soaked in a strange sense of terror, at least for Sophia, the city is like an unknown and terrifying monster, ready to open its blood basin and eat all those who go against its will, in those dark corners and streets, at this moment I don't know how many powerful transcendents are following the will of their masters behind them, acting as hounds to hunt those who are unwilling to surrenderγ
It should be said that it is indeed known as the city of sin that even the gods abandoned, and now the city looks like a purgatory in the abyss, and the beasts in the dark are really hunting everywhere!
"What are we going to do next?, Miss Sophia, now that we're pinned here, we can't move, and the smell of blood can even come from here as if we were dancing like demons outside. Ashered asked, lying on the couch.
Sophia didn't answer him directly: "Are you sure it's safe here?"
"Of course it's safe, this mansion was originally my property, and since I was sent from my family to this city, I've been making black money here to help those sanctimonious guys maintain the face of their great aristocratic families, and these properties belong to me all these years, even when I was in the Order, I have always let people maintain the property rights of these properties, so please rest assured. β
"Words of contract can't stop the sword of the transcendent. β
"I know~" Ashered sighed: "Even if you can get the city security team, you can't get some people's private army, if they really want to break in, then I don't have any way." I just hope that Miss Sophia can show your power and repel them all, maybe we can break out of here if we join forces. β
Sophia didn't say anything after glancing at Asherid, what Ashered said was right, if the other party really wanted to be mortals, the terms and contracts of mortals could not be the footsteps of the transcendents, and the only thing that could be expected now was that the information of this mansion did not enter the eyes of those transcendentals, and it was possible for his side to hold out until the situation eased, and if it was really unfortunate to be discovered by those transcendents, then there would be no choice to fight against the water.
Ordinary transcendents who have their own strength are not opponents, even if it is the dragon itself, they can compete with one of them, but I don't know how many transcendental level characters are lurking in this city, and as the prince of the black dragon, Crossside is a huge trouble, although now Crossside continues to maintain cooperation with the master, but it does not mean that Crossside will show mercy to this subordinate, after all, cooperation is one thing, but invading his domain is another, and Crossside will never choose to give in on this. Even if Crossside really killed him, even the Juggernaut would not be able to reach out to this city that does not welcome gods or demons, so the best option now is to avoid contact as much as possible.
ββββββββββββ
The hunt for the transcendents unfolded in the night, the detailed intelligence provided by the blood clan and the exhaustion of a large number of powerful transcendents made the transcendents lurking in the city and unwilling to surrender to be broken one by one, and even the powerful existence outside the city early in the morning even killed the hope of these transcendents trying to escape, and the entire free city became a hunting ground made of iron cages, and the prey in the hunting ground was hunted one by one in a panic, even if some prey tried to resist and tried to bite their enemies before dying, but under the highly coordinated organization, none of the transcendents could successfully cause influential destruction in the city, as for some killings in the lower districtsFor the people of the Free City, this kind of killing and destruction is not to be taken into account.
The lives of the poor are not worth much in this city, no rich person will set their sights on them, and some people even think that it is necessary to regularly clean up a group of poor ghosts in order to keep more fresh blood injected into the city and make the city revitalize.
"The smell of blood today has finally faded a little, and it looks like it's almost over. β
In the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce, Lelouch was looking at the block from the upstairs study, the shadows that were originally active in the shadows were a little less stomach, and the smell of blood in the air was also decreasing, and it seemed that the cleanup operation launched by Yunokia and Crossside and others to clean up the transcendents was coming to an end.
"So can we go out for a walk? Your Excellency, we've been grounded by you for a long time. Sephiroth, who was lying on the sofa on one side of the study and doing nothing, said in a dissatisfied tone.
"This is also something that can't be helped, after all, this kind of immortal fight, as 'mortals', we should stay away if we can avoid it, right?"
"Tsk~"
Sephiroth snorted coldly, closed his eyes, and stopped talking.
For Sephiroth, who wants to hone his swordsmanship and improve his strength and pursue the pinnacle of power, the nights of hunting the transcendent are simply a good testing ground, those powerful warriors who represent the extraordinary level of this world are fighting and hunting each other, and the aura of power that is inadvertently revealed makes his blood surging and eager to fight, but Lelouch's grounding makes him feel like a hungry person who is turned away from the dinner party.
Lelouch looked back at Sephiroth with a smile, and the other party's dissatisfaction was completely ignored.
As a reinforcement from Ulduar City, in terms of strength, Sephiroth is probably the most powerful warrior in the Chamber of Commerce second only to himself and Buyani, even if it is an ordinary transcendent, he is not necessarily an opponent in front of him, but none of the masters behind the transcendents who hunted the transcendents this time are soft persimmons, and Closed Needless to say, the identity of the Black Dragon Prince is estimated to be that Lelouch who was reincarnated as a black dragon is not his opponent, and Yunokia has the strange necklace and the staff of the Child of the Star in her hand, plus the special layout of the city makes her almost invincible, and the blood clan seems to be the weakest among them, but how much heritage a race that existed 10,000 years ago has, this is really difficult for people to judge and cannot be underestimated.
No matter who it is, Sephiroth or even the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce can provoke now, and there is no need to provoke it at all!
Not to mention that Sephiroth has already shown his face in front of outsiders, especially on the side of the blood clan, at this time, if Sephiroth still goes out to fight against those transcendents, wouldn't it directly attract the attention of Yunokia and others, and then won't he find himself painless, for which Lelouch resolutely imposed a grounding order on Sephiroth, and even in this special time period, except for himself who is the president of the council, who went out to socialize during the day, everyone almost stayed in the Chamber of Commerce.
But fortunately, although Sephiroth has a lonely personality, he still knows how to examine the situation in major matters, at least Sephiroth Nine did not expose everyone under the lockdown order just to satisfy his own selfish desires, although being banned in the Chamber of Commerce made him very unhappy, but in the end he endured it.
Lelouch likes this kind of person who can distinguish between the important and the heavy, and usually a little rebellious, it doesn't matter as long as you don't be willful in major situations, but if someone really wants to be a black sheep unreasonably, then he will definitely not be soft at that time!
"There's a message from Black Rose, Lord Lelouch. β
A dark shadow scurried into the room, and the doom who emerged from the shadows handed an envelope to Lelouch before retreating into the darkness.
"It seems that the envoys of the Big Three are coming, which is expected. β
Lelouch smiled and opened the envelope, the development of the Black Rose should have been noticed by many well-intentioned people, especially the benefits created by the cigarette rolls flowing from the hands of the Black Rose are eye-catching, and there will definitely be people who will hit the inspiration on the Black Rose, considering that the most well-informed person in the city now, there is a good chance that it is Yunokia.
With this expected relaxed attitude, he opened the envelope, but after a few glances, Lelouch suddenly couldn't laugh.
Hmm~ Some things are expected, but some things are unexpected!
