Twilight Chapter 17: Annihilation
Zhu Ziying turned her head, only to see Mo Chen grabbing her and shaking her head, her mouth slightly open, as if she wanted to say something, but she stopped talking.
Ziying held Mo Chen's scarred hand and patted it gently.
"Sister Chen, don't worry, I'll be back soon. After speaking, Zhu Ziying stood up.
"Ziying!" Mo Chen suddenly stopped her, "Good luck!"
"Don't worry. Ziying nodded and walked towards the central district.
Zhu Ziying walked through the familiar streets shrouded in war, looking at her hometown in the sea of fire, as if her heart had been hit by tens of thousands of tons of hammers, but there was nowhere to vent her pain. It was like walking on the road to hell, with corpses burned by fire on both sides, and the closer you go, the more terrified you become.
She couldn't help but think back to the scene in her dream a few days ago, and now everything was really in front of her.
It was such a flame, such a black smoke, such a wail of despair, and a haze that echoed throughout the land.
"No, it won't!" Zhu Ziying kept muttering, trying to convince herself, but the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and she always felt that at some point, there would be a scene that would break her. And at that moment, it must be devastating for all the people of Black Dust.
Mo Chen looked at the scars on his arms, all of which were Mo Ting and Mo Yu. She never thought that the first person to enter the Mo family and bring ruin to the Mo family was her own sister and brother! She tilted her head to the side and closed her eyes, as if waiting for death to come to the door. The "crackling" sound of the flames burning the house was in my ears, and the picture of the previous family reunion gradually came to mind.
I still remember that day, the big tsubaki in the courtyard bloomed, and the elegant flowers pressed the branches. When a spring breeze blows, a few petals fly down the branches and gently land on the stone table.
The family sat in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting, chatting freely.
"Wind. Mo Hao turned his head to look at Mo Feng, "You are their eldest brother, in the future, you will have to take the responsibility of being an elder brother!"
Mo Feng puffed up his chest, patted it, and said: "Of course, I swear, I will definitely protect my younger brothers and sisters and will not let them be hurt in the slightest, if someone wants to bully them one day, I will be the first to refuse!"
"Good. Mo Hao nodded and touched Mo Feng's head, "It's worthy of my son." ”
"I also want to protect my brothers and sisters!" Mo Chen on the side interjected, she also patted her chest like Mo Feng, "Although I am young, I will also protect others, protect my people, and will not let the people I love get hurt!"
As soon as the words fell, the servants on the side covered their mouths and snickered. Steward Mo stretched out a thumbs up and said to Mo Hao: "Master, I think the second lady also has your demeanor, and she will definitely do great things in the future!"
"Of course, of course. Mo Hao twisted his beard and showed a pleased smile, "The children of the Mo family are outstanding!"
"Father!" Mo Chen woke up suddenly, sweat streaming down his forehead. She recalled the dream just now, recalled the bold words she had said, and felt a little ashamed in her heart, and slowly clenched her left hand into a fist.
Mo Chen gritted his teeth and stood up, muttering to himself: "I swore that I would protect my relatives and never let the people I love get hurt, I can't break my word!"
She looked up at the sky, and the sun was sinking in the west, and the clouds in the sky rolled together into a very strange shape, like a giant beast, waiting for the moment when the cage was opened.
"Ziying, I'm here!" Mo Chen took a step forward and hurried forward.
The Central District, the core area of Black Dust, is equivalent to Black Dust's mind and command center. A tall council hall stood in the center, and the sacred and solemn aura made people passing by in awe. In addition to the huge statue of the Chongming Bird in front and the quaint and towering wild goose tower, the council hall is almost the most eye-catching building in Heichen.
At this moment, the black dust had burned in the flames of war, and the council hall had lost its former majesty, the originally smooth and sacred hall was covered by bricks and wooden strips, and the surrounding windows were all shattered by the impact of the battle.
A glaring crack crept down from the top of the chamber, leaving a large stone pit in the ground.
On the curved roof of the council chamber, a deafening explosion sounded, knocking the roof over.
The curved roof slammed into the ground, and from the moment it touched, fine splinters appeared on the edges, and it quickly took over the entire surface.
When the wind blew, a piece of debris peeled off, and then the entire roof fell off from its original frame and scattered to the ground.
Two black figures rushed out, followed by five more figures flying out, following closely behind. The first two stopped in the air, back to back, while the five people in the back stood in a circle, surrounding the two inside.
"Looks like you five old guys aren't bad, enough for me to stretch. Among the two, one of them smiled heartily, "Two to five, interesting!"
"That voice is..."Zhu Ziying had just run to the council hall when she immediately heard the voice. She couldn't help but shudder a little, and then followed the voice. Everywhere the eye passes, only the word shock can be described.
Under the blood-colored sky, Speaker Shen Tuo took the four elders of Zhu, Song, Murong, and Wang to surround the two, and those two were Mo Hao and Zhu Tianqing.
"How can this be?" After Zhu Ziying repeatedly confirmed that she was not mistaken, her whole body seemed to be paralyzed, and she couldn't walk at all. It was like a vine growing under the soles of his feet, holding himself back and unable to move.
"Ziying, that's what I just wanted to say. I don't know when, Mo Chen had already walked up to her and stopped, patting her on the shoulder, "That's why I can't bear to do it, but now, I can't be soft!"
"Because at this moment..."Ziying looked at them, clenched her hands into fists, and said, "They are enemies, the culprits of this disaster!"
"Elder Mo, Elder Zhu, I didn't expect that after many years of separation, the reunion was actually in this way, and we actually had to meet each other. Shen Tuo sighed, with more helplessness and regret in his expression.
"I really don't understand what you're talking about, don't talk nonsense, let's do it!" Zhu Tianqing's hand slowly gathered vitality, and a hurricane burst out in Ling Tian.
"Slow!" Mo Hao stopped him and pointed to the top of his head. "The Elder is coming!"
Everyone looked up at the blood-colored sky.
Dark clouds rolled out of the firmament, and they quickly rolled together, forming a huge eye in the middle, like the eye of the wind, from which a dark light was released.
The clouds grew more and thicker, obscuring the setting sun. In an instant, the sky and the earth were dark, and everyone's vision dimmed a lot.
At the same time, a thunderbolt swept through the sky, quickly illuminating the black dust and illuminating the thick dark clouds.
Shen Tuo looked at the scene that flashed in the air, and his left hand trembled slightly.
The thunder illuminated the silhouette that hid behind the dark clouds.
The black shadow resembles a giant snake with nine heads, and the snake's head is intertwined and deflected in different directions. In the darkness, the nine pairs of ruby-like eyes twinkled. The pupils unleashed an infinite amount of murderous intent.
The huge silhouette, the terrifying head, and the moving thick body couldn't help but make everyone's scalps tingle and their limbs couldn't move.
On the ground, birds and beasts fled, and hurricanes uprooted trees and smashed them heavily on houses, and the stronger the wind, the more powerful the buildings were, and bricks and wood flew sideways.
In the hurricane of the cry, the trees, the corpses of the people, and the bricks and tiles rolled like dust.
The black dust, like a speck of black dust, was played with by the hidden beast.
As the thunder and lightning faded, the terrifying silhouette disappeared into the dark clouds again.
Soon, a golden bolt of lightning flew out of his eyes, and flew towards the five elders with a sharp sound of breaking wind. Not far from the crowd, the lightning split into five more paths, shooting in different directions. In flight, they turned into balls of thunder and lightning, and the surface of each one released an extremely powerful current, which connected to each other, forming an enchantment above the heads of Shen Tuo and the others.
"That's the formation technique..."Shen Tuo's pupils shrank suddenly, "It's the Lei family's formation technique!"
In an instant, the enchantment spun up rapidly, approaching everyone with the oppressive force of mountains and seas, and Mo Hao, Zhu and Tianqing had long since disappeared. The Thunder Barrier was mixed with powerful lightning and wind, and it was menacing, and the retreat path was blocked, and there was no way to dodge.
Seeing this, the five elders chanted the incantation in unison, raising their hands to attack hard. At the moment of impact, the former pressed the five people with an absolute advantage, and with the thunder and lightning whipping on them, Shen Tuo and the others looked embarrassed, and their expressions were very difficult.
They slammed into the ground, and more than three meters of dust rose from the ground.
When the dust fell, the five of them all knelt on one knee, spitting blood, desperately supporting the powerful enchantment, and their bodies had been hit by the thunderbolt with more than a dozen scars, even so, they didn't dare to slack off, because one person's negligence would cause everyone to be crushed to pieces!
"Ah---- I can't hold on!" Wang Rui's voice was hoarse, and he struggled to spit out a few words.
Suddenly, four black shadows hurriedly came, and when they looked closely, they were the four elders Zhang, Lei, Liu, and Li. They stood in four directions, their palms pushed out, and the green light in their palms surged, impacting the Thunder Array.
I only heard a loud bang, and a powerful shock wave quickly shook out, destroying all the buildings and pavilions, and a huge mushroom cloud slowly rose, and the entire Black Dust Central District, which was once the most prosperous place, turned into ruins in an instant, and the solemn council hall collapsed with a bang.
The clouds receded, and the sky returned to its original state. As the sun set, the blood-red sunset shone on the black dusty land, and a frightened bird flew by, leaving a terrifying echo in the deathly silence of the land.
The remnant sun is like blood, in the afterglow of the setting sun, the life of extravagant survival, with the last trace of hope, looking at the fading sun, slowly closing his eyes. The sunset on the horizon is so striking at the moment, and the red light slowly swims away, swinging in circles and circles, until it reaches the other side of the sky.
Nine men stood up in the rubble, all badly wounded, their clothes tattered and their faces covered with dust.
"Where did Zhao Fu go?"
"He went to lead the troops to resist. ”
"Resist, what's the use of resisting! Isn't the central district still occupied?"
"Why the Lei family's formation technique?"
“.......”
For a while, several elders began to complain to each other.
"Don't make any noise!" Shen Tuo's roar calmed everyone down.
And in front of them, I don't know when, nine people have already appeared: Zhu Tianqing, Lei Guang, Shangguan Hua, Mo Hao, Liu An, Mo Feng, Zhu Liang, Mo Ting, and Mo Yuyi.
"Father, big brother... And also... Brother Yu?" Not far away, Zhu Ziying and Mo Chen pushed away a broken wooden plank, slowly got up, and looked at those long-lost acquaintances, and their hearts suddenly felt extremely complicated.
"For... Why is this happening?!Why are they!" Li Qian roared angrily, wanting to rush up and fight with them, but was stopped by Shen Tuo, "Elder Li Qian, calm down, if you go now, you will be sent to death!"
At this moment, a black pillar of light shone down in the sky, and the nine people all took a step back, knelt on one knee, put their left hand on their right shoulder, and lowered their heads slightly. Several elders had serious expressions and stared at the black pillar.
I saw a woman slowly walking out of it, she had long silver hair, was wearing a white moon skirt with wave patterns, a black pattern on her head, a jade bracelet engraved with a rabbit pattern on her left hand, and a strangely shaped beast tattooed on her right wrist. Her facial features are very exquisite, the bridge of her nose is slightly straight, her gray eyes reveal a faint coldness, her face is pale, and she has no expression.
As soon as she appeared, a gust of wind suddenly blew between heaven and earth.
"See Master Kong Yan. They said together.
"Get up. Kong Yan said, and then, the nine people slowly stood up.
"You're the one behind the scenes, turning the black dust upside down!" Li asked sharply, "Isn't it?"
"Bold, you dare to speak to an adult in such a tone!" Mo Feng took a step forward, the machete in his hand glowing in the light of the setting sun.
Kong Yan waved his hand and motioned for him to stand down, and Mo Feng didn't say anything more when he saw this.
"Big brother, how did you become like this?" Mo Chen sighed secretly in her heart, she looked at Kong Yan, looked at it carefully, and suddenly felt that this person seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
"How does she look so much like the little girl Mo Hao brought back? What does it seem to be called, Mo Ming?" Song Wu said, being reminded by him like this, Mo Chen suddenly remembered, and she was sure that it was Mo Ming. But why did Mo Ming suddenly appear here and become like this, is it possible...
Thinking about it, she broke out in a cold sweat. A cool breeze hit her, and she shivered.
"Sure enough, it's a demon! I said that I should have eradicated her at that time, and I couldn't leave her behind!" Li was so angry that he felt extremely regretful.
"Your Excellency is Kong Yan, not what you say, we are here to save Heichen. Mo Feng said.
"Salvation? What are you kidding, look here, look around, this is what you call salvation, you have turned the black dust into ruins, into hell! You have brought a devastating disaster to the black dust, and you are embarrassed to say that it is salvation?" Lei Dong also became irritable at this time, and directly questioned the other party, "Without you, there would be no these, besides, the black dust is not in danger, and there is no need to be saved!"
A crow fluttered past, leaving behind a miserable cry. As the fighting receded, the scorched earth smelled pungent. Houses have collapsed, trees have died, corpses have littered the field, people have been displaced and wailing.
"The Dementors have never provoked wars, since the first life appeared, since the appearance of something called war, there has never been peace in this world..."
