Chapter 396 It's Like Coming Home
A huge axe suddenly appeared, it was clearly a projection, but it had a sacred glow.
The huge silhouette showed a surprising presence in the mist, but it was impossible to step into the town.
only.
Annan looked at the axe and his eyelids moved slightly: "How does this axe feel?"
He murmured, "Just like an ordinary lumberjack axe."
But Rab held out his hand: "Shh."
"Silence."
"Although we agree with you, but..." Lu Fan next to him looked around: "Please note that this axe is the protective force of this town."
At this moment.
The people in the town watched this scene and were not surprised. Looking at the projection of the axe, everyone in the town made a prayer gesture.
"Although people are not allowed to enter the church, it seems that everyone here is very respectful. It is better not to say disrespectful words."
Annan nodded.
"I see."
It's just that as the Son of God, he has seen a lot of awesome things, and he also knows that many shrines that protect the world are transformed by faith. So he was a little surprised to see such a simple object of protection.
"So that's the giant just now."
Rab nodded gently: "Yes, that's what we just said. The greatest danger in this world."
"demon."
Two words were softly uttered from a distance.
The middle-aged man led his fighters and walked over with a large bow on his back.
They seemed to have experienced many battles. Their clothes were stained with dust and blood, and they looked a bit disheveled.
"This is a dangerous world full of demons, and the only place where one can survive is in a few small towns of survivors that provide shelter."
“Although the survivor towns are scattered all over the world and are quite scattered, there are a lot of them, at least tens of thousands of them.”
The middle-aged man looked at Su Qi and An Nan:
"Also existing and opposing are the demon towns. Although there are not many of them, they are all concentrated together, forming a natural barrier like layers of checkpoints. There are monsters and demons everywhere, like the most terrifying barrier."
"Form a barrier?" Annan was a little confused: "Shouldn't they take the initiative to attack?"
The middle-aged man shook his head: "I don't know about this. They seem to be guarding something important, and the dark red here also comes from the center of the demon town."
"but."
The middle-aged man shook his bow and looked into the distance: "We think that the only chance to escape from this life is probably only in that place."
Annan suddenly paused: "Aren't you the natives of this world?"
“There are some indigenous people, but most people,” the middle-aged man shook his head, “are outsiders who were thrown into this world, including us.”
Su Qi understood.
The convergence of the entire dark zone actually attracted a large number of worlds in the entire realm, and also attracted a large number of living beings. A large number of them were probably turned into monsters of one kind or another due to the terrible pollution.
But, there will always be life that survives and grows up in desperate situations.
"clear."
Su Qi suddenly spoke up: "But since there are so many survivor towns in the world, are they all protected by that projection?"
The middle-aged man shook his head:
"Follow Me"
He took Suqi and Annan and walked towards the church.
But Rab and Lu Fan did not follow: "We have already seen it, you go ahead, you will know what to do next when you go."
"We'll wait for you here."
They soon arrived at the door of the church. The middle-aged man did not take out the key, but stretched out his hand and bowed respectfully towards the distance.
"Father, please."
In their sight, a white light slowly appeared, and an old man slowly took a step forward.
He was dressed in priest's clothes, and unlike those evil sects, this man truly possessed holy light and had an aura of kindness and peace.
"Who is this?" Annan was a little stunned.
The middle-aged man said softly: "This is the native inhabitant of this world that I just mentioned. It is also the priest who built this town that sheltered countless survivors."
The priest shook his head gently: "It's all God's guidance."
Su Qi narrowed his eyes. He had some thoughts and doubts, but he would not express them until he went in and saw the scene inside.
Everything here is a little strange. It’s not that there are any weird or strange enemies in the town, but the part he is familiar with seems to have changed.
The priest stretched out his hand and pressed on the door of the church. A ceremony slowly unfolded there, and he moved his lips and began to chant.
"A very high-level ceremony." A voice came from Luoshenfu. He had been observing all the time and at this moment he murmured slightly:
"It doesn't seem like something the natives of this world can control."
"indeed."
Su Qi also touched his chin gently.
This is the lair of the abyss. According to my original guess, this world might have fallen into complete collapse, and there is no possibility of survival. However, I didn't expect that someone would survive, and under some guidance, they built a shelter town.
and.
They are everywhere in the world, and it seems that something is happening here that you are not aware of.
The church door was opened during the ceremony, slowly revealing its true appearance.
What was placed inside was not an axe or something else as they had previously guessed.
Rather, it is a sculpture placed in the center.
"This is the secret that enables us to resist the devil, and he is the savior of all of us." The priest made a gesture of worship and prayer with great piety.
Middle-aged people do the same.
Annan took a look and followed the local customs, so he also raised his hands.
Then he looked at Su Qi who was motionless and quietly nudged him: "Brother Su, don't be still. Respect other people's beliefs."
"You have a point."
Su Qi looked at the sculpture strangely.
But
Why do I feel that this sculpture in front of me looks so familiar?
And so much like myself?
Although the face of the sculpture in front of me cannot be seen clearly, it is carrying a hunting rifle, holding a butcher knife in the right hand and an axe in the left hand!
Isn't this just a sculpture of me being a despicable person? !
Why are you here!
"On June 6th three years ago, we called it the Devil's Day, because on that day, a terrifying shadow suddenly appeared in the originally peaceful world. It covered the sky and the sun, and people from the entire continent could see it."
Su Qi raised his eyebrows.
As soon as these words came out, he knew what time it was.
Wasn't it the time when he came to that small town and took away the evil god's eyes? And that horrifying shadow was naturally the projection of the evil god's furious power.
Boy, everything fits right.
Although Su Qi knew that the world would collapse under the invasion of the evil god's power, he did not expect it to turn out like this. And what about his sculpture?
At this moment.
The priest is still telling:
"Although the terrifying shadow only appeared for less than a minute, it was the beginning of the disaster."
"With the shadow as the center, the pollution spread slowly and engulfed the entire world within seven days."
“We call it Black Week.”
The priest said slowly:
"In fact, by the end of Black Week, although the whole world fell into darkness and chaos, there was still no real destruction."
"At that time, some people suffered mental breakdowns and were directly transformed into monsters due to massive pollution. However, there were still a large number of armies suppressing them, and all countries united to formulate a large number of strategies to resist the monsters."
"They also discovered that the properties of pollution can make people go crazy and eventually turn into zombie monsters, so the government began to use and manufacture large amounts of tranquilizers to prevent mental breakdown and turning into monsters."
Priest: "This period lasted for a month, and even suppressed the chaotic situation for a time."
Su Qi said nothing.
indeed.
Just like in the world of the tentacle man, although the pollution monsters are weird, they are actually just like that and cannot reach the level of sequence strength at all.
At that time, I was only about level 3, not even a Sequencer, but I dared to fight head-on, let alone an army with huge firepower and weapons.
As long as it is made of flesh and blood and cannot dodge or have other means of defense, it will not be able to withstand heavy firepower.
Unlike the Sequencers, who all have psychic powers.
"This month is called the Eve of Dawn, because at that time we all believed that this was not the end of the world, and as long as we suppressed it, we would usher in the dawn."
The priest slowly clenched his fist, his body trembling slightly:
"Until the birth of the devil."
Annan couldn't help but ask, "Is that the giant we just saw?"
"No, that giant is just a pollution-caused Honkai monster, a low-level demon." The middle-aged man shook his head.
