Chapter 192: The City of Apocalypse (19)
As Zhao Xida broke through the encirclement, the knights of the Judgment who rushed to hear the news also jumped out of the shadows one after another, and followed closely to move to the battlefield.
The streets fell silent again.
All that remains are corpses strewn across the streets, telling of the atrocities that took place here.
The puppet girl is familiar with the streets and alleys, galloping all the way, but she can't shake off the 'tail' tightly attached behind her.
The structure of the neighborhood, the distribution of buildings, and the road conditions are presented in the form of a minimap in the lower left corner of her field of vision, and a green auxiliary line winds along the minimap, and the puppet girl only needs to keep an eye on the time while following this navigation line.
During the period of hiding, Zhao Jida had already figured out the surrounding terrain and drew a small map, where the terrain was complicated, which locations were easy to be encircled, and where the roads were easier to walk, she remembered it clearly, and even where the muddy ground that could not be put down could be marked on the map in minutes.
This does give her a slight advantage when escaping from pursuit, which will not be easily trapped
But this, too, the enemy.
The red dots of the Knight of Judgment were moving a short distance behind her, and more red dots were distributed on the different streets and alleys around her, and the red dotted lines used to indicate their predicted route were surrounded by the surrounding streets and alleys.
After realizing that the tactics against the bones were ineffective, the trial knight was not stupid and immediately changed his combat policy.
They mobilized all the all-seeing eyes scattered around the periphery to grasp and share Zhao Xida's position in real time with air superiority, while the Judgment Knights dispersed and moved with her in a loose formation in several nearby streets and alleys, always maintaining a momentum of encirclement.
The all-seeing eye floating in the sky turns into a searchlight sweeping the muddy roads and illuminating the land, while also taking into account all the details of the streets: Zhao Xida's every move, the humidity of the air, the speed and direction of the wind, and even the amount of dust fluttering in the air, all of which are transcribed into visual information and exported to the visors of the Knights of Judgment.
This is after the two companions suddenly split their heads or split their waists during the chase, and the Knight of Judgment realized that the other party had a weapon that was difficult to detect with the naked eye, and adjusted the details of the all-seeing eye to the highest sensitivity, and did not allow any details to be overlooked.
Whether it is a small action or a puppet silk that is difficult to detect with the naked eye, there is nothing to hide under the gaze of the all-seeing eye.
Of course, they saw more useless junk information, but in this way, Zhao Xida's plan to 'use the terrain to lay puppet wires to destroy the enemy one by one when moving' also fell through.
At this point, the chase battle basically evolved into a battle between the two sides to see who made more mistakes in route planning.
But it is clear that this game is undoubtedly overwhelming for Zhao Xida.
Just like now.
The red dots on the periphery quietly occupy the intersection nodes of each route, further blocking Zhao Xida's optional route.
During this half hour, the encirclement was constantly tightening.
There are many trial knights, and a large number of people means that the error tolerance rate is high, no matter who makes a mistake, there can be a team to make up for it, and as long as Zhao Jida takes a wrong step, she may be doomed.
In the case of the balance of intelligence between the two sides, as long as they do not make frequent mistakes and continue to maintain the current formation to chase and intercept Zhao Jida, she will naturally have fewer and fewer ways to go, and the longer it drags on, the more support will enter the field.
The puppet girl climbed over a low wall, landed as lightly as a cat, and then galloped again, and the street scene quickly passed by both sides of the field of vision, rushing towards the intersection ahead.
As long as you cross the intersection ahead, you can reach the more complicated streets, and their encirclement network will inevitably be porous
She checked the time and said to herself.
If there is a loophole, it means that there is a chance to break through.
It's just that the red dot in front of Zhao Jida on the minimap also sensed her intentions, and immediately gave up the original route plan, turned around and turned retrograde
A bend appears at the intersection of the thumbnail map, and in reality, a Knight of Judgment dodges out of the street, blocking the way, raising his hand to raise his Demon Hunter Crossbow and pull the trigger!
Zhao Jida, who had already been warned by the small map, was not surprised, not only did not stop, but accelerated further and jumped up.
Tuk tuk!
Almost at the same moment that Zhao Xida dodged and dodged, the silver glittering demon hunting crossbow bolt landed where she had just stood, and the puppet girl had already jumped high, kicking the wall to change direction in the air, and 'smashing' in front of the Judgment Knight like a cannonball.
Elbow bending.
Punch out!
Within two seconds, Zhao Xida had already thrown seventeen punches, and the fist shadows were stacked on top of each other, falling like raindrops on the heavy armor of the Judgment Knight.
After a stormy combo, Zhao Jida flew back and distanced herself from the other party again.
However, it is a pity that the series of punches just now seemed to fail to penetrate the opponent's armor, and not even a single punch mark was left.
The Knight of Judgment touched his body fearfully at this time, and he thought he was going to die the moment he was approached just now, but now he found that he was unharmed and laughed again and again: Haha! That's it? Hahaha! Use a little more force in your boxing! It's not as painful as being bitten by a mosquito!
Seeing the other party's reaction, a thought suddenly flashed through Zhao Da Fuzhi's heart, and then the speaker had simulated a deep male voice.
γγΎγγ―γγγζ»γγ§γγ(δ½ ε·²ζ»)
What?!
The Knight of Judgment frowned in confusion as he understood her words, but the sharp pain that followed him made him understand the meaning of the words, and his eyes widened in disbelief as he watched his hands, feet, and body inflate like a balloon, and soon the balloon was blown to its limit.
Boom!
Exploded and died, red and white things mixed with bone fragments and bone plates scattered and exploded, pasting a wall and a wall, and the swollen and deformed armor also fell to the ground.
The people who stood in the way during the short battle had been removed, and there was no longer any obstruction in the road ahead, but after such a delay, the three trial knights who were chasing after Zhao Xida also caught up.
You can't run away!
Got you!
Death, heresy!
Three Judgment Knights attacked from the other three directions of the intersection, two Sun Straight Swords and a Piercing Three-Pointed Spear in three directions, left, right, and back, pinching Zhao Xida's throat, head, and back of the heart, and at the same time, several demon hunting arrows were thrown from the sky, covering the entire intersection.
The puppet girl also took a posture to meet the attack, and a large amount of data streamed through her eyes.
The calculus begins!
The figure of the Knight of Judgment and the demon-hunting arrows that fell from the sky were split in two, two into four, infinite possibilities, infinite futures were all spread out in front of the puppet girl's eyes in the form of ghosts, and in an instant, almost endless future phantoms filled her vision.
Calculus reveals the future.
Subsequently.
She closed her eyes.
The possibility is gone.
Countless phantoms shattered, and when she opened her eyes again, only the future she had preserved was left.
Zhao Jida tore off the big sword and threw it aside, the big one fluttering in the wind blocked the vision of the knight on the right, and then turned sideways like lightning to avoid the attack of the knight on the left, the long sword grazed against the collarbone, and then she flipped the back of the knight's neck with her right hand, and swept this knight who was at least more than a hundred pounds as a giant sword, and the demon hunting arrow instantly shot the unlucky egg into a sieve, and then the human flesh sword smashed the companion who attacked on the right side.
At this time, the spear that came from the back of the heart was already close at hand, and there was no way to avoid it.
Zhao didn't think about dodging this attack either.
A small jar the size of a palm pops out of the doll girl's back and hits the Knight of Judgment head-on, who can't dodge.
Then, the light flooded the intersection.
The Knight of Judgment only felt that his face had been hit by some heavy object, and his eyes were black and dizzy, followed by a strong burning pain on his face, and his eyes were 'bright' again
o; He got up, his ears exploded with a piercing eardrum-piercing high-pitched sound, and finally the world in his eyes became bright and quiet, the gun in his hand deflected its trajectory, and the assault sprint was deformed.
Zhao had already turned off the optical and auditory sensors, and within a hundredth of a second when the flashbang exploded, she seized the opportunity.
The upper body is twisted 180 degrees beyond the limits of human beings.
Twist the body.
The right arm is deformed, and the bionic skin and delicate mechanism structure pop out like petals and long knife-like claws, without a trace of blockage slashing through the human body.
Blood splattered.
The body fell.
The dark clouds cleared, and a faint light shone on the neighborhood, illuminating the tattered and miserable body of the puppet girl.
The left arm seemed to have been torn off by someone with great force, along with the left shoulder and a small part of the torso, revealing irregular lacerations, as well as countless jammed gears and deformed mechanisms inside.
On the day of the destruction of 21st Street, although she escaped with the snail gate, she could not escape with her whole body.
This wound was left in that cataclysm.
More Judgment Knights were approaching on the minimap, and in Zhao's field of vision, she also saw several Judgment Knights looming at the intersection in the distance.
With her right arm restored to its original shape, the puppet girl finally confirmed the time, shook her hand defiantly at the approaching knights, and dashed into the complicated alley with their roars, never to be seen again.
I've bought enough time, see you next time
The clock was set back to half an hour ago.
Shuluomen poked his head out from behind the door, looked around, and asked cautiously: They should all be gone
No one answered.
Naturally, no one will respond to his question.
After making sure that there was no danger, he dodged out from behind the door, and quickly left the street where he was hiding down an alley.
Cook, you're going to kill your chosen one
He walked in the alley with a light car, and in the days when he hid in the shack, he also kept the surrounding terrain in mind, and walked through the alley unhindered towards his destination, as soon as he stepped out of the alley and came to the street, the next second he immediately retreated into the dark alley.
Because he saw that there were other people on the street.
A dozen men armed with sticks are 'judging' several people.
You are not a heretic!
The leader, who looked like a squad leader, grabbed a woman's long hair and asked loudly.
No, it's not
The woman seemed frightened and shook her head in denial, but her actions were met with only a beating.
Fart! The knight said it! This kind of behavior of yours is called 'weakness of heart,' and it is something that only people who have done bad things can have! You are definitely a heretic!
Several people rushed up and tortured the woman with sticks in their hands, and several other people who were kneeling on the ground to be judged were also severely beaten, and the miserable wails resounded throughout the street, faintly echoing several streets.
Watching this scene from the shadows, he couldn't help but clench his fists.
Can't see it? The voice of the gods rang in my ears.
As long as you are human, you will be angry when you see such a thing. As a native of the neighborhood, although he has seen this kind of thing countless times, he will also watch others die in order to survive, but he has never been able to take this kind of thing for granted.
Is that going to be managed?
Don't dare to care. The answer was categorical, and he turned around and prepared to find another way to leave, didn't you ask me to pick up the other infidels, how can I have time to care about these things
It's true that you can't see it, and it's true that you're cowardly.
I'm not me, really, really not a heretic, woo, don't don't hit me
Fear and pain overwhelmed the woman's heart, and she curled up with her head in her hands, but never admitted the trumped-up accusation.
But, her neighbor was the first to collapse.
It's her! She's a heretic! Don't hit me, I'll report it to you! I once saw her secretly perform pagan rituals at home! The children, who were also severely beaten, were the first to suffer from the pain and to make false accusations in fear.
Several of his men stopped fighting.
Right! She's a heretic!
I've seen you secretly sacrifice to evil gods!
Seeing that this worked, several other neighbors also identified the woman as a heretic.
The woman's eyes widened in horror: "Don't ask for it, woo, I'm not an infidel!" I'm really not an infidel, I've never done anything like that! Why are you lying! Why!
Her arguments have long since been heard, and the fanatical, blind crowd has long since ignored them.
Kill her! She is the heretic who hides around us! Kill her, or the knight will kill us all!"
Right! Kill her! Kill her!
Can't let her live!
The fear of paganism, the fear of the Inquisition, the fear of punishment and judgment, eventually became the last straw that overwhelmed reason, and became a catharsis of violence, prompting them to rain down on women with their swinging sticks.
It was only then that those who accused the woman understood something.
In this struggle, if they cannot be the perpetrators, they can only become the victims.
Boom! Bang bang!
With a few muffled sounds, the three men who had beaten the woman fell limply.
There are enemies! The squad leader reacted first, and when he turned his head, he saw a man standing behind the three people, holding a blood-dripping stone in his hand, and he was immediately furious, he came to save this woman, and he must also be a heretic! Only the infidels will save the infidels!
The people reacted and waved their sticks at the snail gate, but no one saw it, and a wriggling phantom appeared in the crowd at some point, and quickly expanded.
Then the crowd exploded.
What the am I doing, I threw the bloodied stone aside, my body still shaking, but you're right, I'm a heretic
He picked up the dying woman, picked her up and ran towards her previous destination.
It's okay! I'm here to save you! Hold on a little longer!
The great heresy trial began.
The heavily armed Knight of Judgment kicked open the doors of the chapel/ruined house/*** point full of heretics and rushed inside, killing the believers in the house in a very short time, and then closing the team and heading to the next pagan stronghold.
Under the guidance of monks and judges, members of the neighborhood self-defense forces began to go door-to-door to investigate heretics and heretics, whether accused or not
Everyone is suspected of being a heretic.
Everyone has the potential to be a heretic.
When mass fear reaches a certain threshold, an avalanche of ripple effects is inevitable.
Just like that night.
If you don't become a perpetrator, you become a victim.
People began to accuse each other, judge each other, and more and more people were involved
Day after day, every neighborhood of Apocalypse City is playing out a similar plot.
The first to be destroyed under the attack of the Inquisition was the Demon Sword Order.
The 9th Street, where it is based, is a neighborhood that features 'crafting weapons', from crafting sophisticated and durable mortal swords to self-aware swords and demon swords, from providing blades for others to transforming people into weapons.
The sword worship order developed in such an environment naturally made great efforts to depict the image of the gods, and they created the appearance of their gods with their wild imagination, giving the gods a body in this world, and under the persecution and slaughter of the knights of the judgment, the desperate and painful believers merged their cognition and faith into one before they died, giving the gods a soul.
On that day, all the residents of Ninth Street saw an iron giant standing on the earth, pointing its sword to the sky and its pupils to the sky
Initiate rebellion. Countless swords rose into the air, and the pagan gods showed the world the miracle of the unity of all swords, and finally defeated the picture of the pupil of heaven being dismantled and divided alive by countless tentacles.
Crown District.
Ascend to the Cathedral.
Now the pagan leaders of the Great Mother God Church, the Earth Cat Cult, and the Circle Doctrine Church have been condemned. The heresy cult has been confirmed to be eliminated, and the believers' faith has been shattered, and the three heretical sects have essentially been destroyed, and the relevant personnel of the Holy Light Sect that has spread to the city and tried to split the church will also be dealt with in the near future
In the midst of the spacious Ascension, Giovanni of the Inquisition is reporting to Pope Salivan on his recent work.
Giovanni & ash;&ash; A young and elite Inquisitor who was able to complete revelations quickly and accurately, and whose talent for directing battles, fighting, and hunting for heretics was unparalleled, he was once considered by many to be the youngest Inquisitor in history, and was often compared to the equally young and promising Knight Captain.
And now this name is even more famous with his 'achievements'.
He took over the responsibility of the heresy trial from the head of the Inquisition, commanded the Judge Knights to exterminate six heretical sects in succession, and retreated from the heretical gods several times.
It's just that this elite is now a little worried.
After listening to his report, Sha Liwan, who was sitting on the throne, slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were gloomy: Child, I feel that your soul is full of confusion, and you seem to have a lot of questions in your heart?
Giovanni didn't dare to look directly at the pair of bottomless eyes like an abyss, and after a moment of eye contact, he naturally lowered his gaze: Your Majesty, the Earth Cat Cult and the Circle Doctrine Church are too special, although the Lord has not sent a revelation to kill them all, but we have not been able to catch any believers at present, so let those heretics escape, is there some
He carefully considered the words, hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: Is there something wrong?
Just like the Cogwheel Orthodox Church, these sects also have gods who have come into the world to interfere in the mortal world, but they are still powerless to save the sect that is about to fall, and in the end, the gods are either crushed to death by the Pupil of Heaven or dismantled into pieces, but the only exceptions are the Earth Cat Cult and the Circle Church.
When other heretical sects were forced into the realm of extinction by the Inquisition, the believers' willpower and resentment converged to have the gods come into the world, but these two sects were the first to have gods come into the world, and after the gods were torn apart and taken away by the pupil of heaven, the sects experienced the destruction again.
The High Master of the Circle of Reason, Hou Mula, and the Pope of the Earth Cat Cult disbanded their heresy after sacrificing themselves to awaken the evil gods they believed, and the heretics of these two heretical beliefs have disappeared, although they do not show any harm now, I fear that they will cause sabotage in the shadows
The revelation given to us by the Lord is to destroy the seven heretical sects except for the Order of Axis and hunt down the seven heretical gods. However, Shaliwan doesn't seem to care much about his worries, the number seven cannot be less, not too much, the Lord will not be pleased that you have done too much work, we just need to complete the revelation of the Lord, and nothing else should you and I think about.
But Giovanni was about to say something, but the old Pope's gaze suddenly sharpened, and a strong momentum swept across the heavens, but his voice remained steady and soft: Giovanni, do not speculate on the deep meaning of my Lord.
Giovanni woke up suddenly, cold sweat flowed down his head, and he hurriedly bowed his head and said: Yes, I trespassed.
Well, don't be so afraid, the Lord will forgive you. Sha Liwan returned to his former state as a kind old man, and said lightly, is there anything else?
Yes, Your Majesty, I'm ready to start cleaning up the Cult of the Flying Spaghetti.
Well, Shaliwan pondered for a moment, he closed his eyes as if he was meditating, but nodded from time to time as if he was listening to the Lord's teachings, and after a long time he slowly replied, the Lord's voice had revealed his name, go down and prepare
