[Thank you for the monthly pass support of "Hellsing burial", xiexie!]

While smoke was still rising from the ruins, the Shelterers emerged from the surface like a submarine breaking through the ice, squeezing through the already shattered pavement, flying a cloud of rubble and even tipping over the wreckage of a car with only its outer shell remaining. But when he was about to find the opener to let Sine out, a purple-black light suddenly passed through the smoke in front of him, and the shelterer floated forward again, cutting off three or four lampposts, and Zuihou crashed into a ruined building and disappeared.

Then, the shelterer, the lamppost, and the building all slipped up and down at the same time, bounded by the light.

The building toppled over, making a deafening sound. The Protector made no sound, but a blue-green mist of blood erupted from the fractured surface, filling the space. It is as hard as steel on the outside, but it is still a biological structure on the inside. You can see muscles and bones, except that their tissues are different from normal creatures. The Protector sacrificed all of his attack abilities and used all of Liliang for defense, but despite this, he was unable to block Gaia's blow.

Sine lay down in the shelterer's cavity with his head in his hands, making sure that no other attacks were forthcoming, before he stood up. He looked solemnly at the smoke in front of him, and in the smoke, a figure walked out of the smoke. It was Gaia, who still had a tiny pen on his face, but he didn't look unharmed.

The long silver hair is a little blackened by the smoke, and in some places the hair is burned off by the high temperature. The leather trench coat on his body was torn in many places, the corners of the clothes were torn, and there were sparks spreading tenaciously in some corners. Even Gaia's face was faintly bloodstained, which was injured by the explosion. He looked unmistreated, but Sine was not happy at all.

Sine asked himself if he held a position with Gaia, he would be seriously injured if he didn't die now, and he was only slightly injured like Gaia. It was at the center of the explosion, and the superposition and sputtering of the hot flames would create a terrible disaster. Although the site of the explosion was not in a confined space, there is no doubt that the target at the center of the explosion would withstand severe impact.

However, in this case, Gaia was only slightly injured. Sine had thought that it wouldn't be that simple, but now it seemed that it would be more difficult to kill Gaia than he thought.

"As far as humans are concerned, you've done a good job. Gaia smiled and said, "Throw yourself into the trap first, and then use the strange creatures to get out and create an opportunity to attack me." Your tactics are concise, but they're also practical. If it weren't for me and someone else, you'd be able to get it now. ”

"Perhaps. "Sine jumped out of the body of the Protector, and now he doesn't have any weapons left, which means that the battle will be tough.

"You deserve praise for being able to do this with the ability of the creator alone, and I can't help but want to show what I'm capable of. Gaia smiled.

As soon as he recalled the images of Gaia chasing him, it seemed that his attack was to use the oversized sword to release a sharp jet of energy. That energy stream has the characteristics of long-range range, sharpness, and armor piercing. Although Gaia had not used any other means of attack, this jet of energy alone was enough to cause a headache.

Powerful abilities can be ornate attacks that destroy the world, or they can be as simple as Gaia, but they are so pure that they are hard to resist.

Judging from Gaia's current tone, it seems that this is not his biggest killer move. Sine couldn't help but gasp, he really didn't know how many secrets were still hidden in this man.

"You're probably the first human to know what I'm capable of, so I can give you a little bit more to know. But to understand my abilities, you first have to know what this shijie is made of. Gaia withdrew her sword, stooped down, picked up a stone from the ground and threw it in her palm: "Maybe there are many things that make up this shijie, but in short, they are only solid, liquid and gaseous. But they are still not the ultimate of shijie, so do you know what the ultimate of shijie is?"

Without waiting for Sine to answer, Gaia herself said the answer: "It's energy! Yes, energy is the origin of shijie." I think that at your current level, you have roughly touched the origin of shijie and felt the almost endless energy that exists in the space. If you can advance to the tenth level, then you will be able to learn how to draw energy from space, and your endurance will be greatly improved. ”

Gaia is talking about the theory that most of the higher-level people know, and that drawing energy from space is a symbol of the great evolution of life forms, which means that if there is enough time to evolve and perfect itself, humans can even make interstellar travel by physical bodies alone. If the Eighth Order is the watershed for those who are able, then the Ten Order is the boundary that distinguishes that kind of life.

Up and down the tenth order, they are two completely different life forms. Strictly speaking, being promoted to the tenth rank can be regarded as truly opening the door to super life.

"Space has energy, but what about matter?" Gaia shook the stone he picked up from the ground with two fingers, "The answer is yes, whether it is matter, liquid, or even gas, they are another form of energy. Or rather, another, more stable form. Because of this, it is very difficult for them to be able to absorb energy, which is also the reason why Weishenme Tenth Order Ability will draw energy from space. ”

"Most of the energy in space is accumulated by the energy emissions generated by the movement of matter. Volcanic eruptions, or even wind and grass, are all energy emitted into space by matter, but the amount of energy is different. Gaia clasped his palms together and grasped the stone, "But what I can tell you is that the energy contained in matter is much more terrifying than the free energy of space. Even a stone can be beyond your imagination. And my ability to change the stable molecular structure of matter to form a phenomenon like the core of a planet, so as to extract all the energy in matter!"

Sine was shocked, Gaia went around in such a big circle, it turned out that he was only trying to throw out the mystery of his ability. At the same time, he also knew that Gaia had already regarded himself as a dead man, so he would tell him this great secret.

When Gaia opened his palm, the stone in his palm, the surface of which suddenly turned into stone dust, and then appeared in Gaia's hand with a cloud of purple-black energy. The mass of energy was suffocating, purple on the outside, and deep black at the core, like a black hole.

"And then it's a basic attack based on my abilities......" Gaia reached out and squeezed the ball of energy. The energy moved irregularly in his palm, eventually stretching out to the sides, forming a spear of energy that was three meters long.

Raising the spear, Gaia smiled, "I call this thing the Dark Dragon Lance." ”

At the end of the sentence, Gaia made a throwing motion. With a movement of the hand, the Dark Dragon Lance had disappeared, and when it reappeared, it came to the top of Sine's head!

So fast.

The thought crossed Sine's mind, and his body jerked back, evading it at the end of the day. The dragon spear was nailed to the ground, flashed twice, and immediately rose from the ruins of the city a purple-black ball of light, followed by a boom, turning into dark red flames and rushing into the sky like a volcanic eruption. The air flow emptied and blew so that Sine could not breathe.

The power of just one dragon spear reached the upper limit of the power of his explosive cluster fire just now. A drop of cold sweat slipped from Sine's forehead, and a pit with a diameter of ten meters and a depth of three meters appeared in the place where he had just been. As if hit by a meteorite, a wall of mud was built around the edge of the crater, and hot white smoke was flying. The center of the pit is charred black, and the surface is even more crystalline, which is the trace left by the complete destruction of the molecular structure of the ground.

As for the protector of Sine, he had already been annihilated by the explosion of the dragon lance in the onslaught of energy.

"Sine, you are a cautious and attentive man. You chose this ruin as a battlefield to use the complex geographical environment to limit me, right? Unfortunately, you challenged the battlefield. For me, this city is like an arsenal. ”

Gaia's voice came from the front, and Sine finally smiled wryly. He never thought that Gaia had such a strange ability, he could extract energy from matter and turn it into a means of attack, and indeed this city was like an arsenal. After all, there was nothing else in the ruins, but rubble was everywhere.

Sure enough, the ground shook slightly, and then hundreds of pieces of rubble rose into the air. Gaia appeared in the rubble, and as he smiled and snapped his fingers, all the stones of all sizes vibrate, and the outer stone dust peeled off, revealing the power core within. The core trembled, and then turned into a three-meter-long dark dragon spear. As far as the eye can see, there are hundreds of dragon spears that appear next to Gaia!

Signe knew that a high-level Elemental Domain ability could also condense hundreds of low-level Ice Spear Flame Spears in one go, and then use them to attack like an indiscriminate explosion. The number is about the same, but each of Gaia's Dark Dragon Lances is extremely powerful, far from being comparable to those low-level abilities. The explosive power generated by these hundreds of dragon spears is enough to lift the entire city into the sky!

Gaia pointed in the direction of Sine, and all the dragon lance heads were raised upward, and then, like a missile fire, the dragon lance dragged a purple-black flame tail into the sky. They shoot high into the air, pull a parabola, and then turn their guns and fall towards Sine. When Sine looked up, the sky seemed to be raining gunshots, and the dense dark dragon lances made people's scalps explode.

He cursed and his body flashed sideways. A dragon spear was instantly nailed to the position of Sine just now, and then the body of the spear flickered and exploded.

A series of explosions followed, and dark red, high-temperature flames burst through the ruins of the city, creating clouds of brilliant fire. Under the cloud of fire, everything melts. Whether it's the ground or the streetlights, or the metal wreckage of a car, or the windows and doors of a building, nothing is immune to this heat and fire.

From above, a dark red ribbon of fire was spreading. Wherever the fire belt passed, the road surface disappeared, the building collapsed, and the smoke was everywhere!

Gaia watched with interest as the flames of the explosion circled behind him, and then Sine's figure burst out in the flames of the explosion. Most of his clothes had been burned to ashes, and his exposed body had multiple burns, including his hair. With a puff of hot smoke, Sine roared and rushed in, his palm spread out, and there was a round biological weapon in his palm.

Before he could use the dragon lance, Gaia turned and crossed his sword, using the blade of the sword to block the creature weapon that Sine was pushing at him. It was a bomb-type weapon, and it was immediately detonated at the thought of Sine, and with a boom, orange flames exploded in all directions. It's just that under the dark red fire belt of the battlefield, the flames of this explosion seem insignificant.

At the moment of detonation, Sine drifted out. Then there was a flash of black light in the flames in front of him, and he instantly lowered his head, allowing a jet of energy from Gaia. Rubbing his body and rushing forward, Sine launched a rare hand-to-hand fight. I have to say that his fighting skills are also quite good, and he can't spare time to release that powerful energy jet, let alone extract the energy of matter to form a dark dragon lance.

But Gaia always had that faint smile on his face, and in the midst of the struggle, the silver-haired man seized an opportunity. With a top of his shoulder, he knocked Sine away. Sine stopped his form, and was about to rush forward, when something flashed out of the corner of his eye. He immediately turned his head to look, only to see a black light rushing towards the center of his chest. Sine could only move to the side, passing over the important position in his chest, allowing the black light to pass through a place like his shoulder, which did not have many blood vessels and nerves.

Even so, Sine was able to fly with a force, skimming a distance of several meters before falling heavily to the ground. As soon as he hit the ground, he bounced up. But his left hand was already weak and could not use his strength, and Sine could only use his right hand to support the ground, but at this moment, the sole of one foot fell and stepped heavily on his right hand.

In an instant, he heard the sound of a broken palm, and then watched as his right hand was stepped into the ground by Gaia. Looking up again, Gaia's sword tip appeared in front of him.

Finally...... That's it. Sine thought, but there was not much fear in his heart, but a sense of relief.

"It's strange that you're not scared at all?" said Gaia.

Sine smiled, "Scared? I don't know what fear is since the sari left me. Because before that, I was already scared and hurt......"

"I see, you've been waiting to die. Gaia said, "But even so, I won't let you live." ”

"I know, because I already know your secret. ”

"No, no, that's not the point. Gaia shook her head and said, "The important thing is that if you can't be a companion, then it's enough for me to have one super life." If there are too many, it is obvious that the resources of this planet are not enough to be allocated. ”

"Is that so? But it doesn't matter, I've done what I need to do. ”

"Oh? I don't know yet, but it's your job to run for your life?"

"Of course. Sine smiled, "If it wasn't for you being lured away, how could my people have a chance to send information about you to someone." Soon, the people of this continent will know what Zoro is up to, and you won't be able to stay behind the scenes. ”

"It doesn't matter. Gaia shrugged and said, "Whether it's this continent, Sauron and you in the Papal Chamber, I don't care what they become." So, if this is your Zuihou's last words, then zaijian. ”

"I will be waiting for you in hell. Sine said lightly.

"Hell, it's ridiculous, I've been in the deepest part of hell since I had the will!" Gaia's expression suddenly contorted, and with a sinister smile, the sword reached forward, stabbing through Sine's eye and out of the back of his head.

He stomped on Sine's head and pulled his sword out of the corpse of the legionnaire. Gaia raised her head, looked at the sky and shouted, "I'm right, Agradis, you gave me a hellish life, then I'll drag you and this shijie to hell with Prosius!"

City of Rocks.

Zero stood on the northern wall, staring down.

Viewed from the sixty-meter-high white city walls, the bloodstained road turned into a gray belt, cutting through the wilderness decorated with radiated snow and turning silver shijie. An army from the north came like ants along the ash belt, trying to climb the giant cake of the City of Rocks. Just this morning, Zero received a report that the Papal Chamber was planning a tentative attack, so an army of more than 3,000 men was brought in.

The army consisted of infantry regiments and mecha units, typical of the Papal Hall. Both the weapon and the mecha type appear to be in the middle of the range, and there is nothing particularly outstanding. However, those missile armored vehicles are more threatening, so they have also become the target of zero-priority knockout.

The army in the Pope's Hall is not equipped with high-level competents, and the officers who command the army are only sixth-order colonels, which is not commendable.

At this time, the fortifications of the Rock City had begun to take shape, and the new recruits had been trained for months, so Zero planned to take advantage of this battle to train his troops. Only those who have really been on the battlefield can be called soldiers, otherwise no matter how good they are in the training camp, they are only recruits.

In order to stimulate the aggressiveness of the soldiers, Zero offered favorable conditions. The most direct gold rewards were used to ignite the battle of these recruits, and the two sides fought fiercely outside the city for a day.

Although it was a training exercise, Zero was not generous enough to push out the soldiers who had been sent to death, so after letting the Trident troops eliminate the opponent and the armored vehicles and mecha troops, a relatively fair environment was created for the recruits. Let them feel the fire of war and the test of life and death, and at the same time, they can also protect their lives to the greatest extent.

As for the commander of the recruits, he and Mr. X arrived in Rock City with mecha equipment the evening before yesterday, and officially took over the command of the recruits. Under Mamiro's skilful tactical command, despite the inexperience of the recruits, they made full use of the fortifications and the geographical advantages to lure and divide the enemy, and eat away at the troops of the Papal Hall one by one.

By evening, the army of the Papal Hall was less than 500 men, but the fighting did not even reach the walls of the Rock City. So the commander of the opposing side made a quick decision and gave the order to evacuate, drawing an end to today's battle.

From beginning to end, Zero never thought that this reserve-like army would be able to touch the city walls. He just stared at the north, the sky over there, the radiant clouds thick and low. You can see electric snakes staggering from time to time, as if a storm is brewing!
