Chapter 4

With the monthly cleaning of Grandel Manor, Isabel and I had to volunteer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWe walked into the mansion, which looked like a small Versailles, and quietly went to the third floor while Milan was on its way to the rest of the city.

Two cleaners were cleaning, and one of them took off Catherine's portrait and swept the walls. I found that it was too much work for two cleaners to clean such a large area, so I took the initiative to pick up a mop to wipe the floor, and Isabel also took the initiative to pick up a rag to wipe the doors and windows.

I scrutinized the portrait of Catherine as I wiped the floor, and I always felt that there was something wrong with it. A cleaner lifted a plastic bucket filled with clean water and placed it close to Catherine's portrait, then took out the vacuum cleaner and began to clean some of the corners that could not be wiped off.

Not long after, Miranda came up, and she was happy to see me and Isabel helping with the cleaning. "Thank you for helping me clean the manor. She said to us with a smile.

"You're welcome, ma'am, you've helped us so much, we don't know how to thank you. Isabel said.

The cleaner, who was using a vacuum cleaner, accidentally kicked the bucket next to the portrait, and the water was so full that the water splashed on the portrait.

"Hell. Miranda suddenly roared at the cleaner, "How do you work?"

The cleaner was scared off the spot, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I didn't mean to. He carefully wiped the water from the portrait with a dry towel.

Anger made Miranda's face completely ghostly, she instantly came to the cleaner, showed her fangs, her eyes became blood-red, she stared at the boss, and her mouth let out a piercing scream, she showed her fangs, and was about to bite the cleaner's neck, but suddenly calmed down again, became very calm, she pushed the cleaner to the ground, then picked up the portrait, hung it on the wall again, touched it lightly with her hand, and said calmly: " This is the spoils of war, and it took a lot of hard work to get it, and if it is broken, will I not rob it for nothing?"

We were all completely stunned by this scene. Then Miranda smiled at us and left without saying a word.

After she left, Isabel whispered to me, "She's for a portrait, as for it?"

The cleaner who had been pushed down got up from the ground and patted his clothes. "Are you alright?" I asked him.

"It's fine. The cleaner replied.

"Madame's temper has always been like this?"

"It's the first time I've seen such a temper, and it scares me to death!"

Miranda, who has gone through all the vicissitudes of life, does not hesitate to tear her face with others for a portrait snatched from others, which is completely unreasonable.

Not long after, Ferdinand went upstairs with several security guards, who took off Catherine's portrait. I asked him, "Where are you going to take this painting?"

He said: "Madame said that she would be hung in the underground hall as a memorial to the plunder, which had a great harvest. ”

The security guards carefully carried the portrait downstairs and took it away.

Isabel and I left Glendel Manor with us, looking for a place to analyze Miranda's true identity, but also to relax the tension we had just had. So we went to the only bar on the island, ordered a bottle of red wine and a fruit platter, and had a good time+ drink. Sexy pole dancers perform wild dances on stage, and in addition to this, there are incredible magic shows that bring passionate enjoyment to people.

After the pole dancing and magic performances, he was immediately on stage by a singer with long curly hair, as soon as he walked on stage, the audience gave him a warm applause, presumably he is a heavyweight singer, he sang the song called "love-hurts", after the prelude of the song, he began to sing:" love-hurts，love-scars，love-wounds，and-marks，any-heart，not-tough，or-strong，enough......”

Seeing that I looked listless, Isabel asked, "What's wrong with you, darling?"

"I'm fine. I said.

"Don't overthink it. ”

"I feel more and more ......"

"If I were you, I would leave immediately, go to Poppy Island, and don't care if François is there. ”

"But now...... My mind is very messy, and I always feel like I have a lot of questions, maybe I really think too much. ”

She took a grape from the fruit bowl and put it in my mouth, "Relax, and get a good night's sleep at dawn." ”

"Okay, let's have a drink. ”

We drank and talked until the end of the song, and I couldn't stay any longer, because there were so many smokers here that I couldn't get used to the smell of secondhand smoke.

Just as we were leaving the bar, we suddenly felt something in the sky, and from time to time it made a "whoosh" sound. Suddenly, a rocket flew out of nowhere and hit one of the windows of the bar, only to hear a loud "boom", and the bar was blown open a large gap.

I was stunned, and Isabel hurriedly pulled me away from the scene of the explosion. Then another rocket was fired, this one hitting an extended Cadillac, and the car formed a billowing fireball on the spot.

Rocket after rocket came one after another, catching people off guard.

Not far away, two combat helicopters flew over the bar and whizzed over the bar, blowing the roof of the bar to pieces, and the guests scattered in all directions. Through the glass door, I saw huge pieces of rubble crashing onto the ground in the middle of the hall, killing several unfortunate people instantly.

The three helicopters that arrived immediately flew towards the Grandel Manor.

The entire island sounded the battle alarm, and all members entered the first level of combat readiness. Ferdinand arrived at the scene with some guards, he was a little panicked, and when he saw that the Grandel Manor was being damaged by enemy planes not far away, he led several elite members to the rescue.

On the shore, there was a faint noise of gunfire, and I thought that François must have come to attack the island. Some of the guards immediately rushed to the coast to support the garrison. The island was caught in the air by a sudden attack of enemies, and in just one hour, the entire island was turned into a sea of fire.

Isabel and I hurried to the Grandel Manor, where I saw Ferdinand hit the tail of a helicopter with a bazooka, which was hovering in the air with its tail of smoke and interfering with another helicopter that had just arrived, and the two helicopters collided and formed two huge fireballs in the air, circling irregularly. One crashed onto a giant chessboard in the middle of the manor, with several pieces badly damaged, and the other plunged headlong into a nearby pool.

The invaders, who landed from all sides, blew up the only port on the island, and a large amount of supplies stored there were also burned. The watchtower in the harbor was hit by rockets, and the people inside were pushed out by the blast and turned to ashes as they fell, and it was evident that the weapons used by the intruders contained silver.

Looking at the coast, you can clearly see the tongues of fire fired by the guns, and the intruders are approaching step by step, rushing forward to attack under the cover of several helicopters.

Isabel was shocked, "We've got to figure it out." ”

"Go to Frank first. I said.

We soon arrived at Melissa's house and found that Melissa's house was on fire, so we returned to Miranda's mansion, which I was sure Frank must be in.

The manor was in a mess, the servants were busy fleeing for their lives, and I hurried to find Frank. I shouted his name as I aimlessly kicked open several doors to find his whereabouts. But he accidentally entered the hall in the basement, where the chandelier emitted a dim light, adding a bit of oppressive atmosphere to the room. Miranda stood alone in the middle of the hall facing the portrait of Catherine, who looked to have been standing there for a long time, wearing the blood-red floor-length dress I wore when I first met her. Could it be that she is also a member of the Evil Spirits? I asked her, "Lady Grandel, I don't think you have a shallow relationship with the Evil Spirits, do you?"

She turned slowly, her eyes filled with tears, she looked helpless, and sobbed, "Please save us!"

I was overwhelmed by her words and actions, but I couldn't let my guard down, so I pulled out my pistol and pointed it at her, "Where's my brother?"

She shook her head, "I don't know, my daughter is gone, I'm really worried that something will happen to her." ”

"You haven't answered my question yet, what is your relationship with the Evil Spirits?"

She descended the stone steps and approached me. The gun in my hand was still aimed at her face. "I don't want to say that right now. Her tears flowed more and more, "I just want to see my daughter, please, help me find her." ”

I tried to use my superpowers to get into her heart and see what she was thinking, but for some reason, I couldn't get into her heart to find out the truth, was it because I wasn't strong enough? Or was she too powerful? She was still begging me to save her daughter, so I put down my gun. "Do you know where your daughter and my brother went?"

"Maybe at my daughter's. ”

"No, your daughter's house has burned down. ”

"Oh my God!"

"I'll figure it out. ”

I couldn't care about that much, so Isabel and I went elsewhere to find out where Frank and Melissa were. When we passed through the corridor on the first floor, we found a large hole in the wall that had been blown out, and we could faintly hear the sound of music coming from the gramophone inside the wall, which was Mozart's "Requiem". We walked down the hole and stumbled upon the ballroom where Melissa had her birthday that day. The oppressive music begins to enter its first climax. The people in the living room were dead, they didn't seem to have been shot and died, but more like they were poisoned, and the garden with the greenhouse effect was also destroyed by rockets, and a large number of rare plants were burned.

Melissa sat on the floor, her back against one of the table legs, Frank's head resting in her arms, limbs spread out and motionless. I hurried over and found Melissa with a sad expression and red eyes full of sad tears. I noticed that Frank's veins had turned black, as if they had been injected with mercury, and it felt as if they were about to burst, and he had apparently become a corpse. "What's wrong with her?" I asked Melissa in despair.

Melissa was even more sad, tears welled up in her eyes, and she replied with sobs, "He'...... He's dead. ”

I didn't get to see Frank for the last time, I didn't protect him, and I felt guilty and sad about his body, "I hurt you." "Tears welled up in my eyes, the music of the Requiem echoed throughout the room and the corridors, the sad music only made my emotions more restless, and I looked up to the sky and howled, venting my inner sorrow. Even the gramophone was shattered by my shouting, the music stopped, and the room fell silent.

Isabel couldn't help but grieve and shed tears. The saddest of all was Melissa, who lay on Frank's corpse and kissed his cold, iron-blue lips.

"How did Frank die?" I asked.

Melissa replied, "Poisoned." ”

"Who poisoned it?"

She looked embarrassed.

"Answer me. I roared.

She was taken aback, and her grief and fear brought her to tears, "It's a woman." ”

"Who?" I fumed, grabbed her neck with one hand and lifted her high above my head. She was in agony and tried to break free from me. There was a furious fire in my eyes, "Answer me, who killed my brother?"

Melissa's mouth was wide open, unable to make a sound, and her expression was painful.

"No, Alex, don't do that. Isabel hurriedly persuaded me.

"How can you punish a victim?" a familiar voice came from the corner.

I looked into the corner and saw Robinson lying there, looking poisoned too, with the same veins in his face as Frank. "What did you say?" I asked him.

He smiled coldly, "I said you were punishing a victim. ”

"Victims?"

"Yes. ”

"You make it clear. I let go of my grip on Melissa's neck, causing her to fall hard, and Isabel hurried up to help her up.

Robinson didn't seem to have much to live, and he insisted, "That **** killed Melissa's whole family." ”

"Who?"

"Fake Miranda. ”

"Isn't she Melissa's mother?"

"You've been fooled, all of us...... All deceived by her, the real Miranda has long been ...... Dead, she was so guilty that she wanted to poison everyone present, including...... Melissa, your brother drank the glass of wine for Melissa in order to make her drink less, and finally learned that the wine was poisonous. ”

"How do you know?"

"I have known for a long time, because the real Miranda is not willing to marry her daughter to me, I only want to get Melissa, so I did not tell you the truth. ”

"So you've been hiding the truth?"

"Yes, there is no second person on this island who knows the true identity of the fake Miranda except me. ”

"You deceived us. ”

"Yes, I ...... Death is too good for him. ”

"Who is Miranda now?"

"Yes......" Robinson tries to tell the truth about the fake Miranda with the last shred of his life, but he can't hold on and finally lies there and dies.

The door to the hall opened, and Ferdinand appeared outside it, his eyes glazed over, he staggered a few steps forward, fell to the ground with a thud, and died. Then a group of people rushed in, and the leader entered the house and swept around with his submachine gun in his hand, which aroused my anger. At this point, I have no choice but to kill. I leapt to my feet, jumped over the two gunmen, easily dodged their bullets, and grabbed the submachine gun of one of the gunners, killing the rest of the intruders one by one, only the leader was still alive, he was stunned by my sudden attack, and before he could recover my senses, I rolled on my side, picked up a piece of broken glass, and threw it at his heart. The glass was so deep into his heart that he was in pain, and he fired his submachine gun into the air, and after a few turns in place, he collapsed. I walked up to him, gently brushed his long hair covering his face with my fingers, and asked, "Are you François?"

He nodded, looked at me in amazement, and said in a weak voice, "Alex." ”

I was stunned, how did he know my name? I asked, "How do you know me?"

"I'm an officer under Greene Siegfried, and I've been on guard on Tokes Island, near Poppy Island, for centuries, just to ...... I can see you back one day. ”

"You're waiting for me?"

"Yes, Catherine is alive, you ...... Have to...... Have to...... Kill her. ”

"Catherine, you say she's still alive?"

"She's on this island, she's ...... She ...... before he could finish speaking, he died.

Oh my God, what did I do? I hurt Frank, I hurt the people who were born and died with the Dark Realm, and I was deeply sinned. Remembering Miranda's frustration when she first saw us when we first came to the island, and the angry look on Miranda's face when the cleaner sprinkled water on Catherine's portrait. Therefore, I conclude that this Miranda is Baroque's wife, Catherine. I was full of remorse and looked up to the sky and howled. In a fit of rage, I rushed out of the hall, and the battle outside was over, with the exception of me, Isabel, and Melissa, all the others involved in the battle were dead, and fires were raging in many places. I went back to the hall and asked Isabel to take care of Melissa and deal with the fake Miranda, aka Catherine.

Suddenly, a woman's shrill laughter streaked through the silent hallway. "It's her. Melissa said.

Isabel immediately became alarmed, "She seems to be nearby." ”

"Catherine. I roared, "Come out, I have to kill you myself today, I want to make your life worse than death." ”

Catherine's voice echoed throughout the hall: "How sad it is that you are so many of you who have been played by a woman who has lost her husband. Alex, you could have left here with your brother and girlfriend, but you didn't. ”

"I want to avenge my family. Melissa said with tears in her eyes.

"Follow me. I said.

We made our way to the underground hall where Catherine was hiding, and found that she had changed back to her original form and was hanging upside down from the ceiling.

When Melissa saw her, she was eager to avenge her family, and quickly climbed up to the ceiling along a thick pillar, but she didn't expect to pounce. The cunning Catherine had already switched to another position, and she mocked Melissa: "I don't know what is alive or dead. She then retreated into a dark corner and vanished. All you can hear is her creepy smirk.

Melissa suddenly and inexplicably fell from the ceiling, and soon got up again, and said in surprise, "Something pulled me." ”

Catherine's voice reappeared: "You also want to kill me?" ”

For some reason, I always felt that she was not far from me, but I couldn't notice her, what was it that made her so powerful?

Suddenly there was a "whoosh" whip behind me, and I turned around to see Isabel wrapped tightly around her neck with a long whip. Catherine grabbed the end of the rope at the far end and pulled it back so hard that Isabel was in the air, and then fell to the hard marble floor, she tried to get up, Catherine instantly came up to her and kicked her far away.

At this point, I had nothing but kill Catherine, so I activated the forces of hell and leaped high to pounce the invincible Catherine to the ground, grabbing her neck with one hand and plunging the other deep into her chest, causing her to scream in agony. "Die, you filthy and filthy ****. I roared. While pulling out her heart, she squeezed it into a ball of puree. After a few seconds, she finally stopped struggling. She's dead!? she's going to turn to ashes soon. I picked Isabel up, "It's all right, honey!"

We were about to get out of here right away, and the moment I turned around, Catherine suddenly appeared in front of me, and I couldn't help but take a step backwards. Impossible, she's still alive? It amazed me. This time, she didn't give me time to react, and stabbed a spearhead deep into my chest with lightning speed. At that moment, I felt a piercing and piercing pain, and the muscles and bones of my whole body suddenly softened, and I knelt on the ground weakly, and the sudden sharp pain made my throat unable to make a sound.

"Nope. Isabel exclaimed. She was so sad that she tried to lift me up, but I couldn't get up again.

I insisted on pulling out the spearhead that had been inserted into my chest, holding it in my hand and looking at it carefully, I couldn't help but recall the moment of the decisive battle between Lucifer and Samael outside the Angel City, when Samael's spear was cut off by Lucifer's double-edged sword, and then fell into the extremely fast shell of water. When Gabriel returned the water to the earth, it proved that Samael's spearhead had also reached the earth, but he did not expect it to fall into Catherine's hands.

Isabel angrily lunged at Catherine, pinning her to the ground, and cutting her face with her sharp nails into several deep cuts, causing her entire face to become a bloody blur. Isabel also struggled to break her neck and then bit her the neck, causing her to erupt into a piercing scream. After some struggle, she finally stopped moving.

At this time, Melissa could not suppress the anger in her heart, she casually picked up a stone from the ground and smashed it on Catherine's face, venting her anger. Catherine's face quickly became distorted.

I just can't hold it on. At that moment, the course of my life was quickly replaying in my mind, and I felt that my soul was descending into the depths of hell, that I seemed to see the ghost ships carrying the souls of the dead in the River Styx, and that the evil people were being tortured by the ghost soldiers. At this moment, several black-winged demons with horns on their heads surrounded me, as if to pick me up and report to Hell. Am I dead? No, I have to hold on. I roared and tried to get out of this situation and get me back to the real world, to Isabel.

In the midst of the pain, the forces of hell finally broke out. I grew wings, and my eyes were filled with tremendous energy, and then I suddenly shot a red beam of light in all directions, and those horned demons were instantly turned into dust after being hit by the red beam.

In my drowsiness, I heard Isabel calling to me. My wings began to fade, and my half-demonic face began to disappear, and there was chaos before my eyes, as if heaven and hell were one. I could still feel the slight pain in my body, and I don't know how long it took for my soul to finally return to my body.

Isabel helped me up, "Hold on, you'll be fine." ”

From time to time, I moaned, "I...... Dead?"

With tears in her eyes, she said, "You're fine, you'll be fine." ”

"Perhaps...... I...... Overestimating myself. ”

"Let's go, let's go back to Poppy Island and never go anywhere again. ”

"I'll be fine, I'll be fine after a while. ”

We're ready to get out of here, and Melissa doesn't want to continue wasting her energy on Catherine's corpse, she's now orphaned, and it's pitiful indeed.

"Why are you hiding your true identity?" Melissa asked me.

"I'm sorry!" I said, "we're just ......."

"It's just cautious. ”

"Yes. ”

"Frank told me his real name before he died, and now he's dead...... There's no one to paint with me anymore, and no one to ride with me......" Melissa cried, tears of sadness streaming down her cheeks again.

"Melissa, will you come with us to Poppy Island?" said Isabel.

She shook her head, "I want to go see Frank." She walked out of the hall.

"Let her stay with Frank a little longer. I said. For some reason, the wound on my chest was always aching.

Just as we were about to leave here, Catherine's corpse laughed again, sinister and chilling. Isabel and I hurriedly turned around and stared at her corpse, and found that she was still lying there, a hideous smile appeared on her distorted face, the blood on her clothes began to fade away, the wound healed quickly, and the smashed and distorted face quickly returned to its original appearance. When I saw this, I was completely stunned, why couldn't anything hurt her, I gouged out her heart, why didn't she die?

Catherine immediately became serious and said, "You can't kill me, my immortal body was given by Lilith, the demon of the city without return, after tonight, I will no longer be me, I will become a god, even God can't help me." ”

No wonder her vitality is so tenacious, it turns out that she has demons behind her, which is simply getting more and more interesting. "I didn't expect to meet such a formidable opponent as you. I said.

"You have collectively killed my husband, and today I will avenge him and celebrate with your blood that I am about to become a god. ”

"Then it depends on whether you have the ability. ”

"I don't want to say something boring to you, I'm going to kill you all soon. ”

"Then you can give it a try. ”

She suddenly flew into the air and lunged at me. I immediately flew into the air to meet her head-on, and I fought with her in the air, her sharp claws easily cutting through my clothes, and I swung my fists and slammed them in the face, sending her two fangs flying out of her mouth. I used a red beam to slam her into a wall, which collapsed and buried her. She quickly emerged from the rubble, unskewed, with a sinister smile on her face.

"That's what you're capable of?" she said.

"Use your housekeeping skills. I said.

She then flashed a long whip and threw it at me, wrapping it around one of my wrists. She tried to pull me to the ground, but I stood firm. I motioned for Isabel to get out of here first. Then Catherine opened her big mouth full of fangs and stretched out her long blood-red tongue, which instantly grew old and wrapped around one of Isabelle's ankles, and I immediately cut off the disgusting long tongue with a red beam, but it quickly grew out again.

Catherine recited a spell that caused a dense fog to freeze around her, and then turned into several long-horned demons armed with weapons, armor, and webbed wings. Isabel stepped back to my side, ready to fight to the death. The Horned Demon roared towards us, and I did my best to get rid of the whip wrapped around my wrist, ready to use my might to rid the demons with great force. The power of hell began to concentrate in me, and I soon grew wings and appeared in front of the enemy in the form of a mixture, but I didn't expect those demons to be really frightened away, and they immediately turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared. Maybe it's because I have Lucifer's blood in my body.

"You...... How do you have that power?" Catherine asked me in surprise.

"I don't want to continue talking nonsense to you, you should die. I said.

"Then you can come. Before she could finish speaking, she flew at me in a rage. She put her hands on my shoulders and pushed me into the corner, causing a statue in the corner to crack with a strong force.

She opened her disgusting mouth again, and she could clearly see that there were two rows of fangs in her mouth that were as uneven as a Swiss Army knife. She tried to bite me, and I tried to avoid her stinking mouth, otherwise I might have contracted a disease that would be difficult to treat. I snapped the arm of the statue behind me and slammed it down on her face, blood splattering all over my sleeve and chest. I kicked her to a stone pillar opposite, and the back of her head was smashed with a "bang", and her brain splattered on the smooth stone pillar, but it was just a skin wound to her, and it would soon heal itself, which showed that her life was very tenacious.

I was surprised, "This can't be." ”

She sneered, "It seems that Lucifer has trained you well, and this time I will make it a little more difficult for you." ”

Suddenly, the room seemed to be filled with smoke as if she had cast a spell, and nothing could be seen. Suddenly, I heard a groan from Isabel, which scared me. Isabel had been through a resurrection ordeal, but I still haunted her previous experience of death and didn't want her to do the same again.

As the smoke cleared, Catherine quickly climbed up the broken ceiling, revealing her hideous face and roaring at me, "Go kiss your girlfriend properly." ”

At this time, Isabel was half-kneeling on the ground, her head bowed, unable to get up for a long time, and her hands grabbed hard into the hard ground. "Isabel. I asked tentatively, "Are you alright?"

She suddenly raised her head, her eyes turned red like blood cells, and her face was gradually covered with capillary-like black streaks, showing a look as if she was possessed by an evil spirit. She struggled to fight the evil spirit that had taken over her body, and finally spoke: "Alex, you...... Get started...... Kill me. ”

I panicked, "Isabel, what's wrong with you?"

"Come ......on," she came to me in an instant, leaving several scratches on my shoulder with her sharp fingers, and if I hadn't dodged in time, I am afraid that my face and neck would have been injured.

The evil spirit had taken control of her body, but I still tried to awaken her memory: "Isabel, wake up, I'm Alex. ”

Catherine looked at all of this and let out a shrill laugh, she wanted to see me and Isabel kill each other, "Alex, she's not your girlfriend anymore. ”

"Your plot will not succeed. ”

In front of the evil spirit, Isabel will sometimes occupy a few seconds of advantage, she relies on her tenacious will, trying to fight against the evil spirit in her heart, she struggles and rolls painfully on the ground, the evil spirit in her body forces her to stand up and continue to fight to the death, this time, the evil spirit has the upper hand, her body is almost controlled by the evil spirit, she picks up a spear, the evil flame in her eyes burns, while roaring towards me, fighting with me to the death, I deliberately retreat, for fear of accidentally hurting her. I was soon cornered into a corner, and she pointed her sharp spear at my throat, but she refused to strike at me, her hands were shaking slightly, and the black stripes on her face flickered, as if she was still fighting the evil spirit in her heart. "Alex, I'...... Forever...... Love you!" She uttered with the last of her will, finally unable to fight the evil spirits any longer, and stabbed me with her spear.

I grabbed the spearhead that was about to stab me in the throat, causing blood to drip from my wrist to the ground. In order to drive away the evil spirit from her, I activated the power of hell, and the demon pattern crawled all over my left side of my face again, and at that moment, I saw that her soul was sealed by a spell by a black-winged evil spirit with six horns, and she was never able to wake up.

Catherine, who hung upside down from the broken ceiling, walked up to the ground from the top of the thick stone pillars, intending to see a good show, and sneered at me: "What's the matter, you can't do it? She's not kind to you, why are you still soft on her? The outcome of this battle is either you die or she dies, and I'll see what choice the famous half-breeds on Poppy Island make." ”

Unconscious, Isabel was under the control of the evil spirit, and once I fought back with the power of hell, she was likely to die, and the evil spirit would take the opportunity to leave her body, which put me in a dilemma. Now, I can only be free if I kill Catherine, Isabel's soul and body.

Catherine saw that I was very embarrassed, and a wicked smile appeared on her face: "Surprised? No one can kill me." Thick blood flowed from her mouth and sockets, and her eyeballs quickly turned into blood balls, probably ready to use her ultimate power.

At this time, Isabel seemed to have regained a little consciousness, the black streaks on her face were slowly fading, and the spear gradually fell from her hand to the ground, she looked at the spear on the ground in amazement, and for a moment she looked hysterical, and she was about to talk to me, when she suddenly fell down and rolled on the ground in pain, leaving a lot of messy scratches on the ground. The evil spirit tortured her enough, and she insisted on saying to me, "Alex, kill me, quickly." ”

If this continues, I fear that she will be tortured to death. However, at this moment, Melissa suddenly shouted, "Catherine." She stood beside Catherine's portrait with a cold gaze, looking angry and sad, with a dagger hidden in her hand.

"Melissa, what do you want to do?" exclaimed Catherine.

Melissa said calmly, "Demon, die!" She struggled to tear off Catherine's portrait, smashed the frame, raised her dagger, and stabbed Catherine in the portrait.

"No!" Catherine screamed, "stop. She tried to stop it, but it was too late, and soon a bloody hole appeared in her chest, and blood gushed out.

One knife, two knives. Catherine in the portrait is cut through numerous gaps by Melissa with a dagger. Catherine screamed in pain, too late to recover from her wounds and gushing blood.

Still venting her inner rage, Melissa cut Catherine's portrait into thin strips, crumpled it into a ball of paper, and threw it into a nearby flame.

Catherine's entire body was enveloped in flames, and as she struggled, her distorted shadow cast onto the wall, like the devil's dying struggle, and the howl before death made people shudder. Eventually, her body burst open, turning into tiny specks of dust that shimmered with fire.

"Die. Melissa said.

Isabel's struggle suddenly stopped, her consciousness and strength were fully restored, and I lifted her up and hugged her tightly, making her feel infinitely safe. "Is Catherine dead?" she asked.

"Yes, it's fine. I said.

"Alex, I'm sorry!"

"It's better that you're safe than anything else. ”

Everything around them suddenly fell into silence like never before.

In the silence, thunder gradually rose. I watched dark clouds roll in the night sky through the shattered rooftop. This is not a good sign, and I always feel that what is coming is an even more terrible war. The darkness of the night sky was occasionally filled with "whooshing" sounds, as if some large winged animal was gliding. I thought: This is not Samael's escape from hell, right?

A puff of green smoke flew in from the shattered roof and landed in front of me, forming the silhouette of a woman and transforming into a bewitching female Seraphim. She wore a skull crown studded with black diamonds, clear, blue eyes full of cold murderous aura, a short horn on her forehead, and long pale yellow hair like a cascade covering her shoulders like a cape, and her sexy and seductive figure was a stunning stunner. "Alex. She said.

"Who are you?" I asked.

She picked up Samael's spearhead and sighed, "I'm still a step late, I thought Catherine would kill you with me, but I didn't expect me to underestimate you too much." ”

I shielded Isabel and Melissa from behind, staring sharply at the female demon, "Who the hell are you?"

She took a few steps forward, "You'll know in a moment." ”

She may have been one of the fallen angels. I turned around and motioned for Isabel and Melissa to leave.

The female devil smiled, "None of you want to leave, the outside is already surrounded by my people." ”

"Get out of the way, or I'll be unkind to you. ”

"Just what I want, come on. She drew two sharp knives with barbs, too.

Is there another life-and-death showdown? It's so unfair to me, why does everything that has to do with killing always involve me? Why is my fate like this?

Suddenly, a Seraphim flew in from outside the blown out gate, landed between me and the female demon, and shouted, "Stop." ”

I looked closely, and it was Lucifer. "Lucifer. I said in surprise.

Seeing that I was safe and sound, Lucifer said, "Thank goodness you're still alive!" and confronted the demon, "Lilith, put away your weapon." ”

I was stunned, it turned out that this female demon was Lilith, I had no grievances with her, why did she come to trouble me?

Lilith pointed a sharp knife at Lucifer, "Get out of the way, Lucifer, let me kill them." ”

"Why are you doing this?"

"Samael's current condition is terrible, and it was this group of vampires who caused it. ”

"It was I who punished Samael, and it has nothing to do with them. ”

"Lucifer, you are so vicious, I remember that when you were squeezed out of heaven, I have been silently supporting you, I have been silently paying for you, I have shared your worries, but you have always been very indifferent to me, do you really have no feelings?"

"But I've never done anything to be sorry for you, your love for me is just wishful thinking on your part, and I chose Gabriel. ”

"I don't blame you for this, then I met Samael, and he gave me what you couldn't give, and it was he who made up for the shadow you left in my heart, but now...... But you imprisoned him in the ghoul abyss of hell, and made him worse than dead, and you robbed him of my love. ”

"Then you should come to me directly, and don't bother my friends. ”

"Because they also wanted to put Samael to death. ”

"That's because Samael wanted to be the master of the earth, and he enlisted Cyra, Beelzebub, and Mestroma to endanger humanity together. ”

"It has nothing to do with you, you have tried your best to save humanity, you still can't go back to heaven, you still can't see Gabriel every day, don't you think you're stupid?"

"I'm not stupid, I feel like I'm doing the right thing, at least there are a lot of people who have witnessed my efforts, and everything I've done is supported by Gabriel. ”

"But you're still Lucifer, and you're still a fallen devil in the hearts of men. ”

"I have a clear conscience. ”

"I was so a failure, I could have killed them in hell. Lilith pointed at me, "Later, while they were asleep, I smuggled the coffins to the Cape of Watch, trying to get rid of them one by one by the hands of their enemies, but I killed only one of them. ”

"You knew we were going to New Transylvania, so you deliberately put us at the Cape of Watch so that we might take the initiative to go to Catherine and get Catherine to avenge her husband. I said.

"Yes, blame me for being stupid and not killing you directly. ”

"You killed my brother. ”

"You killed Baroque, and Catherine deserves revenge for her husband. ”

"Enough. Lucifer yelled, "Lilith, stop messing around, you must have come here with the remnants of Samael, Michael and Medanzo must know about it, they will not sit idly by, they will kill you all, including you, I advise you to leave quickly, the sooner the better." ”

"It's not that easy. ”

Lightning and thunder thundered in the night sky, as if a thunderstorm was coming. Lucifer seemed to sense a bad omen, "Lilith, you can't go anymore. ”

The kingdom of heaven was about to send an army, but Lilith did not show the slightest sign of retreat, but calmly called in one of her fallen angels, and said, "The great war is coming, and no one is allowed to retreat." The fallen angel received her order and walked out.

"Looks like no one can save you. Lucifer sighed.

Outside, however, there was the sound of weapons slashing violently. When Lilith heard this, she seemed very calm, "You're really right, Lucifer, it seems that I will definitely die today!"

"No, you can lay down your arms, the archangels never hurt those who surrender. ”

"Surrender?it's ridiculous, do you think I will?" she raised her sharp knife and slashed at Lucifer.

Lucifer dodged and persuaded her, "Lilith, stop, are you crazy?"

But she launched a series of deadly attacks, and also cut a wound in Lucifer's arm. No one dared to interfere in this kind of scene, I could only wait and see, so I took Isabel and Melissa to the side, not wanting to be victims. Outside, there was a lot of killing, and the flames of hell were everywhere.

Lilith's sharp knife slashed some of the statues to pieces. Lucifer doesn't want to clash with her and is constantly dodging her ruthless knife. Eventually, he couldn't take it anymore, and after a flash of light, his double-edged sword whizzed through the shattered rooftop, and he grabbed the weapon in his hand, ready to fight Lilith to the death.

So both of them went out of their way to return the color to each other. Lilith was no match for Lucifer at all, her thighs, waist, and abdomen were cut deeply, and the two sharp knives were quickly knocked off.

"Lilith, don't resist anymore, go back to the city with me immediately, and let's talk slowly. Lucifer said.

"There's nothing to talk about. She leapt to her feet and rushed forward.

Lucifer stabbed at the moment, and the cold light of the sword immediately pressed against her neck, making her dare not take a step forward, and her will gradually disappeared in those blue eyes.

At this moment, Michael and Medanzo and several archangels happened to walk in, and the fallen angels such as Cecia and Iliad, who served Lucifer, were also inside, and it seemed that Lilith's army had been annihilated or repelled by the forces of Heaven and Hell.

Lilith also smelled the smell of failure, she looked at Lucifer, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but sneer, "Do it, don't play mercy in front of me." ”

Lucifer withdrew his weapon and slapped her to the ground with a hard slap, "You...... Listen to me, I am not God Almighty, but I want you to respect my choices and beliefs. Now you immediately go back to the city and reflect on it, and you are not allowed to leave without my order. ”

She lay on the ground thoughtfully, her eyes glazed over, half of her face covered by her long hair hanging down, "Do you still want me to go back to that shabby place?"

"And what do you want?"

"I'm going to spend some time in a place where there are no people or very few people on earth, and I'm really fed up with life in hell. ”

"Are you going to continue to plague the world?"

"No, I just want to be quiet alone for a while, I won't cause trouble, you can send someone to spy on me, if you don't like me, or if you're afraid that I won't be trustworthy, then you can kill me now." ”

"Why do you have to go to the world?"

"Because heaven and hell have no room for me. ”

"Humans can tolerate you?"

"I only hope you grant my request. ”

"Okay, but you can't stay in the world forever, and my men will always protect you and spy on you. I would like to recommend you a few places where you can live peacefully for a while, you can choose from, the Siberian Death Ice Field, the Gaohuayu Island of the Chinese Republic, and the ......"

"Needless to say, I knew about these places a thousand years ago. ”

"Very well, I grant your request. Cecia, you send someone to protect her and keep an eye on her every move. ”

Lilith left the place under the escort of several fallen angels. Lucifer then gave the order to withdraw his troops.

The place was about to collapse, so everyone went outside. There were countless corpses on the ground, and the earth, covered in pools of blood, turned purple against the backdrop of the raging fire. The roaring flames howled like the wails of the dead.

A morning glow appeared on the sea level in the distance, and the sun slowly rose, and the sunlight gradually swept across the sea, covering the island.

Lucifer came to a huge reef near the shore, facing the place where the sea and the sky met in the distance, as if thinking, as if remembering, and did not speak for a long time. Gabriel walked up to him and glanced at his handsome face, "You didn't disappoint everyone. ”

Lucifer touched her face, "I did what I had to do." ”

"The war is over, and now it's time for you to think about your own business. ”

"I can't seem to finish my business. ”

"Of course you have a lot to do, more and more dark angels come to Earth to try to rule the world, they use the souls of some fallen and greedy people to find ways to achieve their evil desires, only you can stop the harm caused by the dark angels to mankind. ”

"Where there are dark angels, there will inevitably be righteous angels, and the most righteous angels are often not in heaven, but on earth. ”

"Just like you!" said Gabriel, giving him a deep kiss.

The war is over, and I hope that the tragedy will not be repeated.

The archangels are about to return to Heaven, and it can be seen that they are reluctant to leave us, so that we can remember each other, Gabriel gave Isabel his bracelet as a gift, Raphael took out a small bottle of potion that he had brought with him, and he hoped that I would be able to use it at a critical moment, and Michael, Medanzo, and Uriel did not give us gifts, they only wanted that Isabel and I could live together in harmony and happiness forever.

It's time to break up again. In short, there is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed. Gabriel and Lucifer, the most powerful and high-status couple in the universe, had a long and deep conversation, and they would rather talk like this forever, even if it was nonsense, than to be separated. In the end, under the persuasion of many angels, the couple also had to break up here, and the scene in front of them was tear-jerking.

Then, the archangels spread their wings neatly and jumped into the ocean below the cliff, skimming over the sea level and flying in the direction of the sun. We watched them fly far away until we couldn't see them.

"Alex. Lucifer said, "I should go too." ”

Before he left, I had to ask him a question, "At first, I didn't know you, but why did you save me again and again? You can't care so much about my life and death for no reason." This question is also the most difficult question for me to answer, and if I don't ask it now, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to ask it in the future.

He stopped talking, and after a moment of silence, he felt that it was time to tell me the truth, "Because your grandfather once saved me." ”

"What?"

"That's right, your grandfather saved my life. ”

"Who is my grandfather?"

"Your grandfather was Cain. ”

"Cain?"

"Yes, I have been wandering on the edge of Hell for a short time after I fell into Hell, and I have accidentally reached the border of the Garden of Eden, and the Holy Father, knowing of this, sent Medanzo to search for my whereabouts.

The cruel angel of slaughter, Cyla, wanted to put me to death in the name of the Holy Father, and he led the dark angels to search for my whereabouts everywhere in the world, but found nothing, and he suspected that some people had hidden me, so he took out his anger on many innocent people, causing the earth to become devastated. Although he sinned heavily, he was not punished by the Holy Father in the end, which is very unfair to innocent people. At that time, my strength had not yet recovered to compete with Medanzo and Cylla, and just when I had nowhere to hide, a hermit rescued me into a cave that no one could find, and the army of angels could not find me with great difficulty, and they finally left. After a few days and nights, my strength was restored, but I didn't want to go back to Heaven either, so I told the hermit who I really was, and he told me that his name was Cain. ”

"My father didn't mention him to me. ”

"Because your father Henks was his illegitimate son, and Henks was a vampire by nature and afraid of the sun, he was sent by Cain to the poppy island at a very young age, and Cain gave his son a drink of the water of oblivion so that he forgot his past. Later, Cain left Poppy Island and went to Europa, but unfortunately he fell into the hands of the witchers who condemned him to a 'demon from hell' and locked him up and swore to burn him. I could not stand idly by while he was about to be burned at the stake, and the night before he was about to be burned at the stake, I took my men to kill all the guards in the prison and release all the prisoners. At last I asked him to leave the prison with me, but he flatly refused my kindness, and he kept blaming me, saying that I had killed so many people in order to save him alone, and had released so many prisoners who had committed so many heinous crimes, that he felt that he had no face to live in the world, so he decided to sacrifice himself, and drank a bottle of poison. Before he died, he repeatedly begged me to protect his descendants, and I agreed. ”

"I see. ”

"That's the way it is. ”

"Then why don't you let Frank drink your blood, why don't you let him be like me?"

"If he drinks my blood, he will also have the power of hell, and then there will be two owners of the power of hell. What are you going to do if Frank disagrees with you and wants to fight you?"

"Frank is my brother, he respects me and doesn't disobey me. ”

"I said that once he also has the power of hell, his thoughts and actions are always the opposite of yours, what do you do?"

"I ......," I muttered, unable to answer.

"I've seen too many things about brothers, and they all disagree with each other because of their equal strength, which leads to the division of the family, so I don't want tragedy to happen to the two of you. Once Frank also gets the power of Hell, the two of you will hold each other back and even split or destroy the entire family. ”

"You've thought it through. ”

"I saved you, but I didn't keep Frank, may your grandfather forgive me. I don't want to say more, because it will arouse sadness in my heart. ”

"I understand your feelings. ”

"I don't want to say more, I have to go. ”

"Will you ever come again?"

"Maybe!"

"I will always miss you. ”

"That's not necessary, think about how to take care of your lover, Isabel is willing to lose her life for you, and then ...... It's your turn to do something for her. ”

"I will love her as well as you love Gabriel. ”

A light breeze blew, and strange clouds in the shape of trumpets appeared in the sky, like an entrance to heaven. Lucifer put on a pair of dark brown sunglasses in a dashing manner, and then faced the sea, "Time is running out, I should go." That's all I can do for you, and the rest of your life is up to you. Remember, don't just wait for someone else to change the world, you can try it yourself. ”

"I will, thank you......! Where are you going next?"

"It's been a long time since I've had a good time relaxing and I'm going to take Gabriel on vacation. ”

"So you made an appointment a long time ago. ”

"Due to various accidents last time, we couldn't meet as agreed, so ...... The Father gave us a leave of absence. ”

"How long. ”

"Half a year. ”

"Half a year?" I was surprised, how could it take so long?

"I won't tell you, I have to go. He walked to the shore and, bathed in the sun, spread his beautiful six-sided wings and flew into the clouds above the blue sky that were like the entrance to heaven.
