Chapter 398 (2/2)
Silent guards lined up in a neat queue to launch an assault, one, two, three... Groups of them launched an assault with shield walls, spears, tomahawks and swords.
But in the end, they all stopped outside the three steps of fascism, either by inexplicably bouncing off, or by organic skeletons that were smashed to the ground.
None survived.
The sneering fascist also stood on the white stone pagoda from beginning to end and never stepped into the long bridge.
”Ha ha... That's right... What an irony...”
A deep murmur came from the ear, which made the expression of Francis cold in an instant.
”The 'barrier' against intruders has become a prop to destroy the guards... These humble guys... I'm sure I never thought I would have this day...”
The silent fascist clenched his fist tightly, and the convulsions of his body became more and more obvious; Tortured by severe pain, he read almost word by word:
”What do you want, serlio...”
”What do I want... This question is really interesting...” the deep voice sounded again, with a hint of ridicule and irony:
”Didn't I fulfill my wish for you from beginning to end... The dog of the Holy Cross...”
”Think about it... When you were about to die... Who revived you...”
”Who told you... The burial ground of the Dragon o'vernier... And gave you the power to use it...”
”Whose power... Let you pass through the glacier wasteland... Reach niederhogg under the threat of countless deaths...”
”Who... Let you find the right way to the Dragon King tower...”
”Is it... The Holy Cross?”
The ironic ending made Francis fall into a moment of silence, and his body trembled even more.
He could even feel that something in his consciousness was gradually eroding and dissipating; And some more powerful pus tumor is gradually occupying those places.
”Less nonsense!”
Forcefully gritting his teeth to resist the pain, Francis said coldly, ”what do I want you to do?”
”The spiral tower in the South has been destroyed... As for those people...” the voice also sneered: ”even if it has not been turned into ashes by the flame... It is impossible to reach the Dragon King tower...”
”What's left is to destroy the barrier... Do you need to borrow my strength again... The dog of the Holy Cross...”
”I'm happy to do this... And I don't need any return...”
”Shut up!” he suddenly interrupted the voice, and the expression of Francis was hard to see.
Yes, all this is only necessary - whether using the people of Loren Turin or the power of evil gods, it is only a compromise that has to be made to achieve the ultimate goal.
Even when the Holy Cross preaches the gospel, does it not rely on the power of mortals?
I have done nothing wrong. All I have done is just for the final outcome, all for the gospel of the Holy Cross; I didn't bow to the despicable evil god, my faith is still very firm!
I didn't
”Ah, ah, ah --!!!”
The shrill and hysterical scream, and the painful fascist finally couldn't bear it. He knelt down on the cold slate, closed his eyes tightly and didn't dare to look at his body.
From the black cross Rune on the right arm to the whole half of the body has been covered with black lines, and there are signs of continued erosion; The tortured fascists struggled and resisted only with a clear will.
The roaring laughter of the trembling soul came from my ears again -!
”Finally feel it... The dog of the Holy Cross... You will no longer be a 'human'...”
”But don't worry... I won't devour you so soon...”
”I'll wait until you witness the truth... The moment...”
