Bulwark of Light

Chapter 753 Chasik has no tombstone (first update 7K, ask for a monthly ticket)

I was in time.

The important character "Ai Li" in this dream did not die.

Mu Wanqiu, who was pinned down by Gu Shen with one hand on her head, had a cold and evil look on her pretty face.

In the "blazing vision", a cloud of black mist lingers behind her——

Judge has awakened!

"These extraordinary people... are probably only at the elementary level."

Gu Shen glanced at the room, "Well, this guy named Zuo Wu is a little bit stronger, about the strength of the second layer in the deep water area, the strength of these guys is too weak, as long as the 'judge' awakens, he can kill them all. "

Extraordinary abilities are divided into strengths and weaknesses.

Zuo Wu's "fire" has extremely low attack power.

It's not bad for attacking ordinary people, scaring ordinary people, and completing a few arson cases at most.

The initially awakened "judge" can crush it, and the "fire" thrown by Zuo Wu collides with the black evil, making no waves at all, just splashing a few scattered sparks and then dissipating.

"boom!"

The silence of the cabin did not last long.

A red and silver bullet sounded behind Gu Shen, piercing through and smashing the wooden door, leaving a narrow bullet hole.

Gu Shen stood up expressionlessly.

He turned around.

The next moment, the wooden door was kicked open violently, and the only remaining "informant member" of the gang of seven slammed into the room with a fierce face. The movement just now was so loud that it could be heard from the church... No need I also want to know, this is the little brat who has awakened extraordinary, trying to resist!
However, when he saw the bloody scene of the black shark surrounded by flames, he was frightened dumbfounded by this horrifying scene.

Gu Shen stretched out his palm, and involuntarily pressed the little girl's head, making her turn her head away.

Then he snapped his fingers.

"Pong-"

The guy who crashed into the house just exploded his head.

He covered Mu Wanqiu's sight.

But this scene was seen by Ai Li.

"Don't worry... I'm not a bad person."

Gu Shen spoke subconsciously, then paused to add: "Maybe I'm not a good person, but compared to them, I'm much better."

Aunt Ai covered her lips to keep herself from making a sound. She looked in horror at the direction of the black mist.

"If you want to vomit, just vomit."

Gu Shen said considerately: "There is still a guy who has not been resolved over there, I will go back as soon as I go."

Gu Shen carried Mu Wanqiu and walked towards the outside of the church.

The little guy roared hoarsely, like a lion.

After awakening, the judge continued to attack Gu Shen... The black evil spirit fell like a storm, but Gu Shen looked calm and walked calmly. He held Mu Wanqiu's back collar with one hand, and put the other hand in his pocket. , even considered "elegant demeanor", in the violent wind and rain, he was like a lightly fluttering willow leaf, always dodging perfectly at the moment when the black evil stab was about to arrive.

To kill someone, of course you have to take Mu Wanqiu with you.

This little guy, after awakening his talent, was too murderous... In just one minute, he killed a whole room of superhumans.

If she wasn't with her, she'd probably kill everyone in the church.

"Your 'S-rank' awakening... formation seems to be stronger than mine."

Gu Shen looked at the cloud of evil spirit lingering in all directions, he murmured, "Can you really kill so many people after awakening for the first time? It's really enviable."

Of course Mu Wanqiu didn't respond.

Gu Shen smiled, "However, I probably understand the reason why you hate 'Brightness'... This church is really disgusting, how about we go and get rid of Virgil now?"

The little girl struggled desperately, and when she heard this, she suddenly stopped moving, she just turned her head and looked at Gu Shen in confusion.

Gu Shen lifted her up to eye level with him with one hand.

"I'm afraid of trouble." He said softly, "So I can leave that trash to you."

Storms, accompanied by torrential thunder.

Perhaps it was due to years of disrepair, or perhaps it was the appearance of Gu Shen who "modified" the world line of the dream. The main glass of this high cathedral was broken at this moment, and the colorful holy light was torn apart by the thunder. The shattered glass reflected the reflection of the man carrying the little girl forward... Gu Shen stepped on the broken holy light all over the ground, leading to the sacred and solemn main church. Virgil held the holy book and stood pretending to be calm and praying Before the altar, he saw blood oozing, and the little girl who was wrapped in the black mist and hung in the air.

"You... Freak! Evil Seed!"

Virgil chanted the scriptures of light, he raised his voice, trying to calm himself down... But it didn't work at all, because the louder he was, the colder the echo in the church was, and the more suffocating the fear in his heart was.

Mu Wanqiu just looked at him calmly.

"boom!"

A burst of flame exploded in the pages of the book Virgil was holding. He picked up the revolver and pulled the trigger. The red and silver bullet shot a long straight line in the wide church.

Gu Shen moved sideways half a step very gently.

The long thread brushed the girl's cheek, and the scorching air blew her hair.

He moved on.

"Bang bang bang-"

Virgil continued to shoot, Gu Shen walked in a straight line, and he shot in this same straight line, his marksmanship was very accurate, but he could never hit the target.

Even if it hits...

It won't have any effect either.

The strength of the red and silver bullets is too weak for Gu Shen... Besides, this is the spiritual world, and he is the supreme "king" in the dream world!
Killing a person is not torture.

Death is just a moment.

But watching "death" come, step by step, and finally oppress you to the extreme... This is the most desperate thing.

When Gu Shen brought Mu Wanqiu slowly to the holy altar.

Virgil couldn't even hold the gun anymore. He desperately pressed the trigger, and the bullet was empty. His elbows were pawned on the countertop, supporting this body that couldn't stand upright and was trembling crazily... snot and tears poured out .

"The Illuminati will punish you..."

"Evil..."

"Evil..."

Virgil stared at the black mist, wanting to curse, those words just came to his mind, but at the moment he couldn’t utter a single word, his last strength was just staring at the black mist...

Gu Shen stood still and stopped moving.

He gave Mu Wanqiu the chance to kill "Virgil".

But nothing happened in the church.

"boom."

A few seconds later, Virgil... just fell backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

"..."

Gu Shen silently looked at the man who fell on the ground.

Is the judge so scary?

Virgil was terrified to death.

"and many more--"

At this moment, Gu Shen realized that something was wrong... He didn't know how Virgil died in Mu Wanqiu's real experience. This kind of death is really weird.

But before his death, Virgil kept staring at "himself".

"It stands to reason... this dream should end after the death of 'Virgil'..."

Gu Shen stood quietly, he held up the little girl, and made "Mu Wanqiu" who was lifted up slowly turn around.

The two looked at each other.

Gu Shen looked at the little girl in front of him. From the beginning to the end, his spiritual power enveloped the church to ensure that no tragedy would happen.

Virgil is dead.

Zuo Wu also died.

Ai Li is still alive...

"The reason for Mu Wanqiu's 'Nightmare' is that she lost control of her awakening. While killing these gangsters, she accidentally killed 'Ai Li'...but the dream is still going on...Is there something I have neglected? I Guessed wrong about Mu Wanqiu's 'Heart Nightmare'?"

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, feeling something was wrong.

"Squeak."

The small door of the wooden house was slowly opened.

Aunt Ai looked pale, and came to the church hall. She retrieved the jade talisman from Zuo Wu's body, and holding the jade talisman, she came to the holy altar surrounded by black evil spirit.

"Xiaoqiu..."

She looked at the blood splattered on the altar, her voice was trembling, and although she was frightened, she still approached slowly.

Gu Shen turned around.

Auntie's eyes are very similar to Virgil's... They are both looking at "self", but their eyes actually pass through "self".

They... can't see themselves.

Holding the jade talisman, the desperate woman said with difficulty: "Wake up...Xiao Qiu...don't be controlled by the 'evil ghost'..."

Rolling Hesha, like octopus tentacles, covered the vaults and pillars of the church.

The judge was condescending, watching the woman.

After seeing Aunt Ai, Gu Shen immediately realized what the "wrong" place was.

It is a jade talisman.

The mascot that Ai Li usually carries with him to drive away the "Judge Heisha"... This jade talisman can't play the role of "protecting against evil spirits" at all, it's just a beautiful looking one The jade talisman contains some extraordinary source quality, that's all, it doesn't have any special function.

In theory.

There is absolutely no way for the jade talisman to protect the host and resist the [judge].

So when Zuo Wu got the jade talisman, the ending was the same... Even if he didn't intervene in the dream, he would be tortured and killed by the [Judge] in the hut just now.

Since the jade talisman is useless.

So why has Aunt Ai been safe and sound for six years...

Gu Shen could only think of one possibility.

Countless black spirits rushed towards Aunt Ai, he let go of the hand that suppressed Mu Wanqiu, and the girl flew towards Aunt Ai in an instant, and crashed into the arms of the woman... There was no [judge] killing In such a scene, those black devils almost surged into the sea, but retreated around Aunt Ai by themselves, and the source quality of the jade talisman exuded a faint fluorescence.

It looks like the jade talisman expelled the disaster.

But in fact.

The disaster never went away.

Calamity is just being firmly controlled by its master...

One big and one small, embrace each other.

Aunt Ai hugged the child tightly and cried bitterly.

"Rumble..."

The entire dream world began to shake at this moment.

Gu Shen slowly came to the door. He looked out of the church's floor-to-ceiling windows, and there was a shocking mechanical roar in the distance, and the "light breath" he felt at the beginning gradually descended... Countless flocks of crows took off around the church, dancing wildly , roar, carnival.

It rained heavily, the sky turned upside down, and a blazing "sacred light" fell in the distance.

The saint riding the white horse of the church, the Holy Inquisitor, followed the light of day and arrived in front of the dilapidated church surrounded by crows.

The leader is a tall man, wearing a red bishop's robe and a gorgeous long sword inlaid with purple and silver hanging from his waist. He circles the white horse and reads the crime loudly.

"In the light of the light, to hunt down and kill the sinners—"

"Mu Wanqiu and Ai Li, in the year 626 of the new calendar, in the north of Chashik Town, committed murder. They killed 74 people. In order to avoid responsibility for their crimes, they escaped from many places on the border of Beizhou. Their crimes are unforgivable, and they will be punished today!"

The red-robed archbishop drew out his long sword and raised it high.

The church surrounded by crows, inside and out, was wrapped in black evil spirit.

Aunt Ai hugged the baby tightly.

Mu Wanqiu's expression changed from indifference to bewilderment.

New calendar 626 years...

Gu Shen glanced at the calendar hanging on the church wall.

six years ago.

He felt the "thick" and "suffocating" darkness... finally understood why Mu Wanqiu killed Zuo Wu and the others effortlessly and easily.

Because today is not her first awakening at all.

Her real awakening was six years ago.

If what the red-robed bishop outside said was true, then the 74 people in the small town of Chasik probably all died in that awakening.

It's just that in Mu Wanqiu's dream, there was no relevant information at all.

Because of the memory of the bloody night six years ago, it was sealed away.

For a mature spiritual transcendent, it is not difficult to do this... That person should be the figure that appeared at the beginning of Mu Wanqiu's dream, with arms outstretched, resisting the artillery fire in the war.

her father?

No matter what, that figure in this dream...is always an unknown person.

That man gave Mu Wanqiu six more years of precious time.

[Judge]'s extraordinary power is constantly increasing, impacting the "memory seal", and Mu Wanqiu has gradually learned how to control this calamity power during the six years of "buffer time". Facts have proved that she is indeed worthy of "" The "S-level" talent has traveled to many places in the past six years, and without a teacher's guidance, she has completed the initial control of [Judge] just by relying on her own will.

She didn't hurt Auntie one iota.

And the reason for the completion of this "Heart Nightmare"...is very simple.

Six years of exile is only for a recovery.

Just today.

Her "memory seal" was completely shattered.

……

……

"So... the real nightmare was Chasik six years ago."

After realizing this, Gu Shen turned his head to look at the two embracing behind him.

He murmured: "This campaign in the name of light will not kill Mu Wanqiu... That red-robed bishop will be stopped at a critical moment, but my arrival has changed part of the world line .”

The world outside the glass is full of killing intent.

At this moment, the Holy Inquisitor of the Evangelical Church has completely surrounded the church... and the Lin Guards are still on their way.

If you guessed right, the final outcome is that the big shot of "Lin's" rescued this gifted child, and after overthrowing the Red Emperor, handed him over to the investigative army for training.

"Looks like I came... just in time."

Gu Shen turned around and asked softly: "The guys you hate, they are still alive until the end... right?"

Mu Wanqiu was startled.

Her memory at this moment is still stuck in the immature age of ignorance.

After the Red Emperor War ended.

The Lin family has established a good relationship with Guangming City. Many holy inquisitors and archbishops have withdrawn from Beizhou... Some of them are sincere people, but there are also some who, in the name of "Brightness", practice "filth" thing.

They praised the pure gods, but returned in the form of hell.

For people like them, Beizhou in peaceful times is far less valuable than in times of war and chaos. If they stay on this land, the crimes they committed in the past will be found out sooner or later... Beizhou people never forgive, and never No compromise.

So after the war ended, they withdrew from the borderlands and returned to West Continent.

Those crimes, those filth, and those dirty past events eventually became the dust buried in history.

The church glass began to shake.

[-] meters away.

With the red-robed bishop Qu drawing his sword, the holy inquisitors who came in formation began to load the shells. Of course, they would not go to the battle in person... It was recorded in the Chasik file six years ago that the extraordinary power awakened by this little girl was quite strange. , The war against the Red Army is coming to an end, and they will return home soon. To deal with "heretics" at this moment, all they need is bombardment with artillery fire.

"Everyone, in the name of light—"

Bishop Qu's angry shout resounded through the sky.

"fire!!!"

When he came this time, he wanted to take this opportunity to erase the "bloody history" of this church... What the Holy Inquisitor did in Deepscale City must not be known by anyone, and the Red Emperor was overthrown It is a certainty, Lin's New Deal is destined to come, and the young queen who is about to ascend to the top is said to be a hard-faced person who cannot tolerate the slightest "dirty" in her eyes.

The strongholds in Shenlin City that abducted and sold Chaofan must be "cleaned up".

Now Virgil is dead—just right!Save yourself the trouble!

Right now is the best time to start shelling. It only takes one salvo, and the dilapidated church in front of me will be reduced to ashes together with the girl in "Holy Light Wanted".

No one will know what happened here.

With a shout, countless shells were loaded.

"Boom!"

The crows no longer surrounded the church, but scattered under the rolling pressure of the blazing waves.

A salvo of shells—

The huge floor-to-ceiling glass reflects fragmented firelight.

Mu Wanqiu, who was hugged by Aunt Ai, stared blankly at this scene. How similar was the scene in front of her to the dreams that had flooded her mind countless times in the past six years?

Subconsciously, countless black spirits surged up on the soles of her feet.

[Judge]'s power has fully recovered, these black spirits can rise from the ground at any time, and condense into a perfect high wall.

But the next moment-

Time seemed to slow down.

Those shells "slowly" reached the highest point in the air and fell "slowly".

"Make a deal."

The figure wrapped in countless black mist stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass, and turned around after seeing the salvo of gunfire.

Gu Shen turned his back to the gunfire and faced the girl.

He said softly: "I'll help you...get rid of them. It's not just the 'get rid of' in the dream, it's the 'killed' in the real world, the kind of 'done' that they can't escape anywhere Drop'. This nightmare, I will help you fill it up."

"trade……"

The girl looked blankly at the black mist.

The ignorant voice echoed in the church.

"This word is not appropriate, let me think about it..."

Gu Shen rubbed the center of his brows, could it be that it was the influence of Pluto's tinder, that he even used the word transaction.

"You don't need to change the words, I know what 'deal' means."

The immature girl suddenly said firmly: "I agree, what do you need from me?"

"I need you……"

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Be my [Apostle]."

apostle?

The girl was startled.

"You don't have to rush to agree."

Gu Shen said calmly, "Let's see my sincerity first."

Gu Shen stood up.

His spiritual power was released in an instant, directly reaching the edge of Mu Wanqiu's dream!

Gu Shen's "vision" covered the entire church and even the snowy forest with a radius of ten miles. He saw the Lin's guards on their way with "external armor" outside the snowy forest, and also saw a familiar face. The absolute pillar of the future investigation corps, the captain of the first team, Lu Zhe, is still an immature young man.

This group of people is galloping in the snow forest.

Due to my own reasons, the world line has undergone some changes...

They came in a little later.

"Sorry, the 'highlight picture' of this dream belongs to me."

Gu Shen whispered silently in his heart.

next moment.

The frozen time returns to its original state.

The cannonball flew, and the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the church shattered, but they were shattered actively. Gu Shen stepped on the ground and swept out in an instant. , Dozens of whip legs burst out in a row.

"Rumble rumble—"

Flames blazed and exploded over the church.

All these cannonballs were detonated in advance, countless gunpowder smoke shook and shattered, and the holy inquisitors who looked up from a distance looked confused. Logically speaking, the cannonballs hadn't touched the church yet. How did they detonate?

And the next moment.

The white horse neighed, and suddenly raised its upper body.

"?!"

Bishop Qu's expression froze, and strong ominousness emerged in his heart. The moment the shell exploded and flew, a figure suddenly appeared behind him. He sat calmly behind Bishop Qu, held the rein for him with one hand, and said calmly, "I remember your face."

Gu Shen wiped lightly with two fingers, and a line of blood appeared before the neck of the red-robed archbishop.

"bishop!"

"bishop!!"

This scene happened so strangely, before the Holy Inquisitors had time to react, the tall steed crashed to the ground, Gu Shen slid on his back, he dragged the long blazing thread... in the army of the Holy Inquisitors. "Cropping".

This is his meeting gift to Mu Wanqiu.

For the meeting ceremony, it is necessary to make it more attractive.

The mud was flying.

But Gu Shen's body was spotless.

These holy inquisitors wearing bright holy robes and riding pure white horses were cut up by Gu Shen alone in the roar of artillery fire. Gu Shen killed them one by one, like cutting melons. Cai, this massacre is meaningless, the most important thing is that he needs to fulfill his promise, so Gu Shen remembers every face in this dream.

The reason why the faces of these people are so clear.

It was Mu Wanqiu who conducted an investigation after the incident was over.

Everything in the nightmare.

She remembers it all very clearly.

And after it's all over.

Gu Shen returned to the church.

From the beginning to the end of all this, it seems that only a second has passed, because the gunfire that exploded behind Gu Shen was like fireworks, only scattered sparks fell to the ground, and the impact wave splashed, "Slowly" smashing the floor-to-ceiling glass of the church, like waves tumbling on a cliff.

"Who are you?"

Mu Wanqiu's real memory also began to wake up at this moment.

She had a headache.

At this moment, she tried her best to look at "Gu Shen", but she couldn't see clearly. She just vaguely felt that the "human figure" wrapped in black mist was very familiar...

"I'm……"

Gu Shen smiled lightly.

"Pluto."

The artillery fire exploded, and countless shattered glass splashed into the church.

The shock wave came roaring.

The crows screamed.

The Holy Cross fell.

Gu Shen took a step forward, and he opened his arms.

The girl stared at the generous figure in front of her in a daze, and the flames from the shells overwhelmed him. This scene almost overlapped with the picture in the dream——

……

……

The small town of Chashik ceased to exist after the war.

The town has been trampled on many times.

The borderlands have suffered from wars, and many refugees have been displaced, choosing to embark on a long journey away from their homeland...

People are gone.

The town is naturally gone.

The siren roared.

The steam train stopped at the border of Beizhou.

The little girl took Aunt Ai's hand and walked slowly towards the homeland in the dream. It was a rare sunny day with no clouds in the sky, and the snow reflected the warm light.

The two looked at the strange yet familiar soil, dazed in a daze, not knowing where to go.

"Why, don't you know?"

An old man on the train, seeing the reaction of the two, said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I saw you. The Third Army has been here... It has been reconstructed after the war, and the house has been rebuilt and planned. The land was lost, and this place was merged into 'Ussuriysk County', and now the new policy stipulates that this place is 'South of Ussuriysk County'."

"It's just that we're still used to calling 'Chasik' here..."

He paused and said with a smile: "The people from the past are still there, why isn't the town here?"

"We... are here to pay homage."

Auntie spoke softly.

The old man nodded, and the smile on his face disappeared a lot. He stretched out his withered hand, took the bag without saying anything, and said in a low voice: "I guessed it... Come, I will take you."

There is a wind blowing.

Dry grass clippings hit the girl's face.

She looked in the direction of the wind, and there was a layer of weeds growing stubbornly under the snow layer.

soon.

They came to an empty hill.

There is nothing there.

There are no tombstones, no soil bags, and no wooden signs.

"That's it."

Pointing to the silent mourners in the distance, the old man said softly, "Whoever you want to mourn, you can mourn here."

Aunt Ai asked in surprise, "The cemetery... Where is the cemetery?"

"There is no cemetery. There are too many people who died. They couldn't put it down. They were all set on fire. Many soldiers in the legion don't have tombstones, let alone us..."

The old man shook his head and said hoarsely: "But that's fine, it means that you left early... This ghostly place has experienced a lot later, and all in all, it is like this now. All the dead souls gather together. You can join in the fun here."

"A few days ago, I heard from the Lord of the Third Legion that after fighting for six years, they finally captured the Central City. In the future, Her Majesty the Empress will build a large cemetery there, following the example of the 'Qing Tomb' in Dongzhou..."

He smiled and said, "I don't have a chance, you guys have time to take a look for me."

The snow on the hill was swept clean.

Weeds fly.

Some people come, some people go.

There is a big oak tree growing here, with wind chimes, letters, and dense wishing papers hanging on it. The flames of war burned Chasik, but did not burn this old tree... Many children of Chasik, It grew up under the shelter of this big tree.

Aunt Ai held the "Jade Talisman" hanging on her chest.

She read a few words silently, and then made up her mind to take it off and hang it among many wishing papers.

The breeze blows and the wind chimes sway.

The trees are full of snow, and countless wishes are clanging.

Chashik has no tombstones.

This town has seen too much death.

After that, only the new students remained.
