Chapter 3: Surprise Attack
"Throw yourself into the arms of the great Lord God, Tsuzawa!"
"It is the Supreme Being that gives us life and strength, and no matter what original sin you are carrying, the great Lord God will surely tolerate your ...... with His most merciful heart."
In the valley of the Pioneer Quarry, hundreds of miners lined up in a huge phalanx. In front of them, www.biquge.info pen "Fun" pavilion stood a makeshift mahogany pulpit. A middle-aged man with loose hair and a fat body was standing on the pulpit, emotionally preaching the teachings of the Fire Protector Sect.
This middle-aged man is the black-robed bishop Neil in Joey's mouth, and beside him stood two red-robed monks whose faces could not be seen clearly, whether intentionally or unintentionally, under their wide red robes, there was a faint red light.
Obviously, these are two high-level magic card masters, and with the escort of these two masters, presumably this Bishop Neal can be said to be at ease with security issues now.
This kind of scene made Xia Yu anxious, especially when he was in the corner at the end of the phalanx, which was extremely far away from the pulpit, at this distance, not to mention the abduction, and even what Neil was saying, he couldn't hear it clearly.
What about Joey? Xia Yu looked around the crowd again anxiously, but saw no trace of Joe at all.
"This guy is so unreliable!" Xia Yu scolded secretly, in fact, Bishop Neil did not arrive on time according to Joey's time, but postponed it for a week.
Moreover, at such an important juncture, Xia Yu has not seen any trace of Joe since early in the morning.
If it weren't for the fact that Joan Yisai gave Xia Yu two rusty "swamp crocodile mines" the day before, Xia Yu would really think that this guy was ready to retreat.
The Swamp Crocodile Mine is a throwing weapon made from the swamp crocodile's venom glands. It only needs to be smashed on the solid ground to emit a hidden poison, and all the objects affected by it can be paralyzed and unable to move, and the heavy ones will be unconscious, and even their lives may be lost.
Early this morning, Xia Yu had already taken the antidote to prevent the poison of the swamp crocodile, and their original plan was that Joey deliberately created some conditions in the crowd, and then Xia Yu took advantage of the chaos to use the "shadow step" skill of the night rabbit black blade, and cooperated with the paralyzing poison of the swamp crocodile thunder, to quickly subdue Bishop Neil, and then use this to coerce everyone to leave.
But, looking at the current situation, I'm afraid this plan is going to be in vain.
"Dear Xia Yu, do you miss me?" Just when Xia Yu was at a loss, Joey's mocking tone sounded behind him again.
"You've finally shown up. The big stone hanging in Xia Yu's heart fell to the ground at once, and just as he was about to say something, Joe pulled Xia Yu's sleeve and dragged him out of the crowd.
"What are you doing! Do you want to rush out directly!" Xia Yu said angrily when he saw that Joey was about to lead him directly to the outside of the wall.
"Don't talk stupid. Joe raised her face and glanced at the quarry guards patrolling the wall, "But if you can beat them all down, you won't be impossible." ”
Xia Yu didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Qiongyi's gourd, but Qiongyi's confident expression told him that it must be poison.
"Lean on this. Joey said, pointing to a large gray rock.
It was a two-man tall stone, which was not uncommon in the Pioneer Quarry, and when the miners had finished mining the useful ore, they would leave behind some useless stones like this one, which were scattered all over the quarry.
"What for!"
"Good, obedient. ”
Xia Yu was very helpless and was pushed to the rock by Joey, and Joe also sat down against the stone wall.
"Xia Yu, have you ever experienced 'Earth Engine'?" asked Joe with a smile.
"Isn't that nonsense, who hasn't experienced anything like this? ”
Xia Yu said angrily, what Joey asked was definitely nonsense in nonsense, and an incident like Diqing would occur every two or three years. It can be described as a geographical phenomenon on this continent that has not been interrupted for thousands of years.
Every time a ground attack occurs, the surface of the entire continent begins to tilt without warning, after which an eerie acceleration throws unsuspecting people and objects straight away. Therefore, all the buildings in the Immortal City are built extremely strongly, and the benches, tables and chairs are all nailed to the floor, just to prevent the occurrence of the earth engine phenomenon.
Fortunately, the ground engine does not last long, and it often ends within half a day, except for the two violent accelerations at the beginning and the end of which have a certain destructive power, it is not a very serious problem.
"In fact, the high-level of the Fire Protector Sect has long calculated the time of each Earth Engine. Joey continued, "But they didn't want to make it public. In order to create the illusion of a 'miracle'. ”
"What do you mean?" Xia Yu is also a very smart person, and as soon as Joey said this, he realized the crux of the matter.
"That's right, that's what you think, get ready, and the action is about to begin. ”
Xia Yu faintly sensed why Bishop Neil didn't arrive on time, and he turned his gaze to the pulpit again. One detail caught Xia Yu's attention.
Bishop Neil had already let go of his hands and grabbed the pulpit in front of him, which was pinned to the pulpit. Although the balding fat man did not stop his passionate speech, the direction of his little eyes shifted from the crowd to the sun in the sky.
“...... Disobedience to God's will is heresy! Questioning God's existence is heresy! And God ---" At this point, Neil deliberately lengthened his voice, as if waiting for something to happen.
"He will personally send heretics who disobey God to Hell with his own hands! Look! This is the miracle of God!"
"It's coming!" Xia Yu and Joey said in unison, and then they leaned against the stone wall.
As if in response to Bishop Neil's words, a low roar came from beneath the earth, like a giant beast moving its massive body.
"What's going on!"
"Miracles!
"Great God, I was wrong!
"Forgive the fart, this is the ground engine! Find something to support!"
............
The phalanx under the pulpit suddenly became a mess, and the people who reacted quickly had begun to look for something that could fix their bodies, but there were still a very small number of people, frightened by Neil's words and the changes between heaven and earth, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing in a hurry.
Half a minute later, the roar stopped abruptly, and in its place, all the rubble on the ground began to roll in one direction, first small stones, and then some unstable boulders. Nature finally announced its power to everyone in a terrifying way, and an inconceivable angle of about thirty degrees appeared between the originally horizontal earth!
The terrible is still to come, after the inclination, a powerful acceleration suddenly appeared! Everyone who did not fix their bodies was thrown out more than ten meters away in the direction of the tangent of the inclination!
"It's now!" Xia Yu shouted, and he and Joey, who had already been on the spot, rushed towards the pulpit like arrows off the string. Now that the acceleration had just disappeared, the two Neil's guards on the stage, although not as embarrassed as the others, had just come to their senses.
Xia Yu's body suddenly disappeared, and immediately after, his figure appeared on the pulpit, and two swamp crocodile thunders came out of his hands and accurately threw them at the two red-robed monks who were caught off guard!
A thick cloud of purple smoke instantly enveloped the entire pulpit.
"Assassins!" Bishop Neil cried out in panic, he wanted to run away, but it was too late, and the poison of the swamp crocodile made his fat body completely unable to move.
A cold dagger was placed around his neck, it was the black blade of the night rabbit in Xia Yu's hand.
"Open your mouth!" Xia Yu said coldly.
"You will be punished by the gods!" Bishop Neil shouted excitedly, and Xia Yu did not pay attention to his words, but choked his fat face and forced a pill into his mouth.
"If you talk more, I will kill you, and send you and your god to meet soon!"
Neil was stuck in his throat by the pill, and he was speechless, in the thick purple smoke, he basically couldn't see anything, but the coolness emanating from the black dagger in Xia Yu's hand Neil still understood, and he nodded hurriedly like a chicken pecking rice.
"Damn, that's unlucky, what's going on!"
Frida emerged from a pile of rubble, his current appearance was very embarrassed, and just as he was about to say something vicious, he saw the pulpit wrapped in purple mist.
The swear words that came to his lips were suffocated back by Frida.
More people struggled to get up from the ground, and at this time, the purple mist on the pulpit began to dissipate, and when Neil's figure clearly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, everyone's mouth changed to a standard "O" shape.
They could all see that Bishop Neil was now firmly under the control of a teenager armed with a murder weapon.
There was also a bewitching teenager standing next to them with an uninhibited look, and Frida recognized at a glance who these two people were: Xia Yu and Joey.
Sure enough, something happened to this kid! Frida immediately regretted it, if he knew that such a scene would happen, he would have given him a few more dares not dare to take Xia Yu's two gold coins.
Behind the three of them, the two red-robed monks were completely immobile, and the red glimmer emitted from their bodies was no longer pure, mixed with a lot of purple substance, and the poison of the swamp crocodile was being expelled from their bodies at an incredible speed.
"Heresy! heresy!" you will go to hell!" one of the red-robed friars rebuked angrily, but even if the poison was gone, Bishop Neil, whom he was trying to protect, had become a lamb to the slaughter in the hands of the villains.
Xia Yu didn't look back at the two monks, he looked around, and his eyes were on the several quarry guards who had already rushed to the bottom of the stage.
"I'm sorry, if God really existed, he would have fallen asleep. Xia Yu's eyes widened and a victor's smile appeared.
"Now, I'm in charge!"
