Volume 2 Why the Sun Shines Chapter 109 Born to be destroyed
On the afternoon of May 28, the Church sent a high-ranking hunter to the abandoned warehouse at the end of Barracuda Street.
An extremely rare old wooden tea table was placed next to the warehouse, and around the table sat the great priest and the great nun, and Mei was also cross-legged on the right side of the table.
She didn't care what the church was going to do, but she was eventually called by Hughes for the simple reason that the end of the world was coming.
Yes, it's as simple as that, the world is going on as usual, but it's all about to be done right away.
The Boundary Breaker has been dormant for so long, not sleeping.
It's just that the big priest blew his beard and stared, and Mei didn't look at him at all, and the atmosphere between the two was tense.
The archpriest poured himself a cup of tea, and in the process said sarcastically: "What a great thing, Miss May, I guess it must be a very good feeling to betray the church and make you glorious now." ”
Mei smiled, then the corners of her eyes became extremely sharp, and she replied: "Yes, the best time to feel is the day when the church kicked me away." ”
The archpriest slapped the table, turned his head to look at Hughes, and questioned, "Even if the Boundary Breaker wakes up Raleier now, the church can handle it." Why are you calling this evil woman, don't you understand, Ms. Hughes, the business is unreliable. ”
Hughes's expression was indifferent, and he made a gesture to make them quiet.
Many of the gods of the church are now locked up in the dark temple, and the archpriest is just stubbornly refusing to let go of the church.
She said lightly: "First Lalaye descended on the royal city, then the orphans of the royal city were awakened, and now it is the extreme anomaly of Barracuda Street, and the Boundary Breaker is holding the sword of Damocles high above our heads. ”
"Rather than the hatred between you, it is better to care about whether there is a tomorrow for mankind."
With that, she waved her hand, and a high-ranking hunter on the side talked about the discovery of the church, and the hunter derived from the Stage Eight Butcher approached and began to speak: "According to our sensors, aside from these scattered demon statues, there is an even more terrifying thing buried under the warehouse. ”
With that, he respectfully took out a map of Barracuda Street under Hughes's gaze, placed it on the table, and drew a circle in ink around the location of the warehouse.
"So we need to dig at least a hundred meters deep to determine what it is."
Mek restrained her already impatient emotions, tapped her hand on the table, and asked, "I still haven't heard why I have to be here." ”
The butcher hunter looked back at Hughes, who nodded in agreement before saying, "We don't have an extraordinary person who can do this at the moment, so we need the main gun of the company's flagship Queen Victoria." ”
Mei frowned when she heard this, and she estimated a little, if the main gun was used to dig into the ground, this depth would be at least a few days and nights in a row.
But it's not that it can't be done, it's just that it's a lot of trouble.
She opened her mouth and said, "Look, the noble church now has to come to the outsiders because of this little problem. ”
Hughes's expression was still very calm, but she opened her mouth to remind, "Little girl, the business has just pulled out of the eight-year war, and the church is now pulling you into the quagmire. ”
"If you deal with it now, all the destruction will only stay in the royal city, but if it expands, it won't be clear."
May was generalized, but she still couldn't say Ms. Hughes, and it was also the award ceremony she held for herself that year.
She finally said: "I'm sorry, the man of this family has a discipline, forbidden to contact the church, I can come here is already guilty." ”
Jackson listened to it with his chest crossed, and this was perhaps the most important two-sided conversation, but it was going on like afternoon tea at the moment, and he couldn't help but feel the drama.
Hughes pursued: "Everyone knows that you are now the actual person in charge of the business, if Francis is still in charge, he will obediently listen to me." ”
With that, she glanced meaningfully at May, and left the meaning behind the sentence to May to think about herself, for example, was the Eden Project really conceived by Francis?
Mei was silent for a while, she had a premonition, and then immediately changed her tone and said, "Okay, the company is willing to help." ”
Hughes smiled, this was just an expected result, the little girl in front of him was not stupid.
"The Queen Victoria will enter in an hour, and the digging time depends on your signal, and if there is nothing else, I'll go first."
Merry got up and left, not wanting to look at the old priest again.
"Ms. Hughes, you are defiling the sanctity of the church." The archpriest whispered, and he realized that the man in front of him, who had brought him into the church a hundred years ago, was now more and more incomprehensible.
Yes, Hughes's lifespan is a mystery, and she seems to have been here since the founding of the church.
No matter how old the seniority is, when you see her, you also need to shout out to the respected nun.
Hughes looked at the former young man step by step to become the old man in front of him, and said softly: "Child, the church has never been sacred, have you forgotten what I told you?" ”
The archpriest was speechless for a moment, and he felt a deep sense of powerlessness, even in his current position, the representatives of the hard-liners in the church could only obey after Ms. Hughes spoke.
He has been working on adjusting the church system, and the revival has been remarkable over the years, with many high-level hunters being trained, and it seems that the order of the church has been re-established. But after the Black Temple was locked, all efforts came to naught.
"Jackson?"
Hughes remembered all the names he had bestowed on the hunters.
Hearing the Grand Nun call out his name, Jackson stepped aside in a proper manner and replied, "I'm here, respected Grand Nun." ”
"What are you waiting for, clean up here and see what's down there."
After she finished with a smile, she left with the Grand Priest and many of her retinue.
Jackson spread the nun's orders, and the hunters began to draw a large circle around the warehouse with their tools, and lit flare oil lamps around them to guide the upcoming bombardment of the flagship.
At this time, Abel and Margaret came here from the shop, and Margaret's expression was very frustrated, and Alice did not look like she could be persuaded at all, so she had to give up.
They saw the heat in full swing and asked Jackson what he was doing.
"There's something strange underground, and the surrounding statues seem to be connected to it, and the Grand Nun wants to blow this place into a pit about a hundred meters deep."
Abel snorted and said, "Sounds like it's going to take days." ”
"Yes, the preliminary estimate is that the Queen Victoria will be blown up for two or three days, and the sound of fireworks can be heard in the royal city for several days in a row."
Hearing the name of the company's flagship, Abel was puzzled.
"Queen Victoria? When the company also came to help, my mother would never agree. ”
Jackson kicked the rocks around him, and then said unhurriedly, "Everyone thinks so, but Ms. Hughes just has a way, and in the end she agreed." ”
Then he looked at them twice and continued, "Don't be idle, go over and help." ”
Abel nodded, and then took Margaret up to set up the signal oil lamp together, back and forth, Margaret whispered: "Is there something big going on, otherwise how can the company unite with the church." ”
"I don't know." Abel shook his head helplessly, he didn't know any news, but looking at the feeling that the recent mountain rain in Wang Cheng was about to come, it was probably something big about happening.
As for why Alice and Solomon stayed in the shop, he had a rough answer in his mind, most likely to hunt down the carver.
While everyone was busy, hundreds of large signal oil lamps circled around the abandoned warehouse.
Now everything is ready, just the arrival of the flagship.
While Abel was resting on the side, the carver appeared beside him at some point, smiling at the abandoned warehouse, without the slightest sense of sadness that all the works were about to be destroyed.
"It's a pleasure to see you again, Abel."
Abel wiped his sweat with a towel and said casually, "The church asked me not to keep anyone here, I'm sorry for your work, but it's not a good idea to stay here." ”
He pretended not to care, his tone seemed to be a casual exhortation, trying not to provoke the engraver to inquire further into his identity.
"Hehe, some works are born to be destroyed, which is a good thing."
Kate, the engraver, shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly.
Dedication is another kind of sublimation, all in order to reach the highest point of art, and he is willing.
"Let's stop the riddles, Abel, your last name must be Messiah, it can't be anything else."
"And you must know Alice, a clown, who is leading a drunkard down this street to find me."
Abel's movement of wiping sweat stopped suddenly, it seemed that he was just 'swimming naked' now, so he simply stopped hiding.
He hung the towel over his shoulders and withdrew all his questions: "Why did you come to the royal city?" ”
Kate, or, rather, whose real name is Duke Celtic, narrowed her eyes and said softly: "For the sake of a great idea, this is my last freedom." ”
"Why don't you run?"
Celtic replied, "It was I who chose to come here instead of coming here to be discovered." ”
"I am a servant of the Goddess, and likewise, the Goddess is a servant of the Breaker. Now that the Boundary-Breaker's feat needs to fill some holes, I've been honored to be chosen as a pawn. ”
Abel stood up straight, and said in his heart that this guy was really abnormal, and he was indeed a supreme believer.
He couldn't help asking, "Do you know Jacobin?" ”
Celt tilted his head and said, "Of course, another pawn, it's just that guy is just lucky." ”
Abel shook his head, gritted his teeth, and said, "He deserves death." ”
Celtic smiled and didn't say a word, then shook his body a few times and walked into the distance: "By the way, tell Alice that I can't wait for her to find me." ”
