Bulwark of Light

Chapter 848 The Eye of Destiny
"Mr. Jia Wei, the current situation is really bad..."

On the walls of the West Cave, there was a light gray rain.

Su Ye was sitting in the reclining chair with a self-deprecating smile on his face.

He looked at the thunderous zenith, although his expression did not reveal anything, but his mood was unprecedentedly gloomy.

"The Tower of Origin, Beizhou, and Dongzhou have all begun to retreat."

"And we are still having a 'revolution' here."

Su Ye's slender fingers gripped the handle of the chair.

The mountain ash covered up the essence and shielded the spirit, but he looked at the rain curtain in the distance, and through the countless gray fog, he seemed to be able to see the noise of the West Cave and the urban areas at the moment... The resistance struggle of the large-scale people suddenly exploded.

No need to think about it, this is a good thing done by the "neutral".

Shadow is dead.

The neutrals fled.

The Holy Book is lost!

Su Ye tried his best to restrain his anger. He had not been appointed as the Holy Son for a long time, and going south to the Sangzhou Grotto was the biggest task so far... He came with the "Holy Book" full of confidence, but at this moment he fell into such an embarrassing situation.

The most shameful thing is that he doesn't even know who stole the holy book!
Su Ye covered his forehead with one hand, and laughed in a low voice: "It's better to kill them all, what do you think?"

"..."

Jia Wei fell into silence.

This great knight of Guangming City in heavy armor, with silver and bright armor splashing countless fine rain, is as majestic as a stone statue.

"inappropriate."

Jia Wei said in a deep voice: "In the [-]th area of ​​the West Cave, there are nearly two thousand extraordinary people marching and resisting... those who escaped are not counted, these people still have a chance to enlighten. If you find the 'holy book' , everything is in time.”

"What if I can't find it?"

Su Ye lowered his eyes and said in a distressed mood: "In the past few days, the Holy Inquisitor's evidence search has made no progress...we can't find any evidence."

"...Gu Shen."

Jia Wei once again said the name he suspected in his heart.

He said slowly: "This time, the incident is very similar to Meng Xiao's disappearance. At that time, the Holy Inquisitor also couldn't find any evidence."

"Your Excellency the Great Knight."

Su Ye smiled: "Intuition cannot be used as evidence. Do you want to use this as evidence to search Gu Shen? If the scene of Beizhou Hanging Mountain is reproduced, how should we explain it?"

"Don't waste your energy on Gu Shen." Su Ye sighed with a headache: "We lost a page of the holy book, [The Temple] will know soon... Tan Yao may erupt at any time, but Guangming City is a believer None of them can be taken away, the current situation is that we can’t transform the believers of the entire island, and if we can take some away, we can’t return empty-handed.”

After Jia Wei heard the words, he didn't move at all.

A deep echo came from under the Mingguang armor: "You mean to retreat?"

"Yes."

Su Ye stood up slowly. His thin body was drenched by the heavy rain, and his robe of blessing of light became docile. The bright and bright sun reappeared, but the light was no longer bright at this moment.

"Not enough 'faith'...my sun is dimming too."

Su Ye came to the direction of the inner city and watched the restlessness and commotion in the main city.

"so,"

He pressed his hands on the stone city wall, and asked again: "Kill them all?"

Jia Wei was stunned.

Unexpectedly, the new Blessed Son would come up with such a solution.

"I'm not kidding you."

Su Ye said softly: "Those who don't serve the light will perish, be destroyed, and be broken... Shouldn't these foolish people rebel in the West Cave deserve to die?"

"You are the Holy Son, the one who will lead the Bright City forward in the future."

Jia Wei lowered his head, and said in a hoarse voice: "My lord once taught me that those who do not serve the light, or those who are ignorant, or ignorant, we should give enough patience and tolerance... If they are willing to return Righteous way, then we should forgive the crimes they have committed.”

"What if they don't want to?"

"..."

Jia Wei thought for a long time, and said word by word: "The holy son is the leader of the trip to Sangzhou Grottoes, and Jia Wei is only responsible for carrying out the task... The holy book was stolen, I want to look for it, maybe I will gain something."

"Okay, got it."

Su Ye, who had a gloomy look between his brows, smiled, and did not look at the great knight, but continued to look at the extraordinary people who rebelled in the city with his elbows, and said casually: "Since you don't want to stay here, why don't you stay here?" Let's go find the Holy Book."

Jia Wei left the high wall.

It became deserted and quiet here again.

Su Ye looked at the chaos in the city, he stretched out a palm, and countless rays of light converged on the palm, manifesting the dim sun.

He laughed at himself, and muttered to himself: "So... I have to do the dirty work by myself."

……

……

The rain from the ice sea fell over the Sangzhou Grottoes.

The false sky is stacked with countless clouds and mountain ash, and flocks of birds are swimming in the countless shadows.

Adam stretched out his iron wings and flew low in the gray dome.

Gu Shen was stepping on the flying sword and gliding along with it. Although the altitude was not high, the wind was strong, and the shadow of the black big-winged sparrow could be vaguely seen.

Perhaps it was because the beast tide had just receded.

The flying extraordinary beast spirits in the clouds have not yet rioted, and these great-winged sparrows have not launched an attack either.

Near the core area, the concentration of mountain ash increases greatly.

Gu Shen has planted "blazes" around him, so he can monitor external changes at any time. When he comes to the core area this time, the first thing he has to do is to find out what happened to the "Eye of Destiny" back then.

"Do you still remember the route where you picked up the 'Eye of Destiny'?"

"I remember...but not very clearly."

With the help of the wing iron, Adam was able to fly freely. He muttered: "I entered from the North Cave, went around to the west, and then followed the ridge all the way to collect biological fossils..."

"You lead the way."

Gu Shen said calmly: "Let's go through the same route as before."

"...It's here, I started from here."

Adam began to lower the height, and Gu Shen immediately followed.

The two landed at the foot of the west side of the [Tan Yao] ridge. Adam looked at a red and silver iron rod inserted deep into the ground, and said pleasantly: "This is the mark I made three years ago, and it is still there now."

This iron rod has been devastated by wind and frost, but the surface is plated with a layer of red silver.

So for three years, it has not been destroyed.

"[Tan Yao] There is no deep-sea signal in the core area, so travelers need to make a 'signal pole' by themselves." Adam said solemnly: "This is what I left back then...you can find it along the ridge." The lost place of the Eye of Destiny."

He took off the wing irons, took a deep breath, stepped forward quickly, and looked back at Gu Shen: "Let's go, I'll lead the way."

Gu Shen nodded silently.

The two of them just walked towards the mountain of [Tan Yao], this place is shrill and strange, there are constant birdsong, and at the same time, there are bursts of mountain ash coming with the wind, as for the rain falling from the ice sea, it has disappeared, and it is not approaching yet. The location of the mountain pass is already very hot, the ground is constantly rising steam, and the sky is full of fine raindrops, which evaporate into rain vapor before touching the ground.

Adam was drenched in sweat.

Gu Shen's expression was as usual, because he was shrouded by the pure land domain.

The journey was boring, the two came all the way, and the atmosphere was dull.

At this moment Gu Shen spoke: "Can you tell me the story of 'The Eye of Destiny'?"

Adam was stunned for a second, then smiled and said, "The story about the Eye of Destiny... what do you want to hear?"

"casual."

Gu Shen said: "You can say whatever you want. If you are willing to explain, you might as well tell me why it is called the Eye of Destiny."

At this moment, Adam is wearing that mechanical prosthetic eye.

He carried the small jar containing the "scarlet eyeballs" with him... These eyes are usually not used, especially when he is alone with Gu Shen.

"It's actually not that complicated. I can see a lot of 'ghost shadows' when I wear it."

Adam laughed and said: "At first I thought it was my illusion, but then I found out...the eye is a sealed item, and the phantom I saw after wearing it was not an illusion. When I first wore it, I didn't take it seriously until I saw the laboratory of the institute glowing with flames that day, and it turned out that a fire really broke out in the laboratory the next day."

"continue."

"Later I started to study this 'eye'." Adam shrugged: "I didn't tell anyone about the existence of this thing... You should also know that I have the highest authority in the Holy City Research Institute."

Gu Shen remained silent, and continued to speak.

"This eye has given me a lot of convenience, but it also has a lot of trouble..."

"Those 'phantoms' I saw were often accompanied by side effects, and I would become uncontrollable, whispering constantly, and sharing what I saw with outsiders."

"As for why the name is called the Eye of Destiny..."

Adam scratched his head and asked back: "It can indeed see fate, can't it?"

Gu Shen suddenly said: "But if I didn't bring the 'God Infant', how would you explain the [Tan Yao] scene you saw?"

Adam froze.

"That's a good question..."

He couldn't laugh or cry, "Maybe fate will change. The 'future' I see has changed with your decision? Or maybe this is also a part of fate?"

"Fate... will not change."

Gu Shen said lightly: "Otherwise, wouldn't your eye be useless? Doesn't its existence prove that everything will happen, and everything is expected, since you saw the god's favor in [Tan Yao] If there is a picture of the son standing on the mountain pass, then this picture will definitely appear."

"……Yes."

Adam murmured.

"But the baby god is about to be sent out of the Sangzhou Cave."

Gu Shen continued: "Then who is the son of God's favor that you see, is it me, or is it you?"

"I……"

"Shall I take another look?"

Adam was a little hesitant, he took out the bottle, he was a little tangled, and muttered: "But last time I used it up, my head really hurts, and I haven't recovered yet..."

"Or, I will use the 'Eye of Destiny' this time."

Gu Shen made a suggestion.

He smiled and said: "Since you can no longer bear the price of 'overdraft', you might as well give this eye to me...I will 'see' for you."

Adam's expression became serious. He took two steps back with the bottle in his arms, and said cautiously, "Of course it's fine if you want it... After all, I'm not qualified to refuse. It's just the terms we negotiated earlier?"

"Suzaku is dead."

Gu Shen stretched out a hand and pointed to the heart, "You are safe now, the black silver bomb will not be detonated."

"Suzaku? Dead!"

Adam's pupils constricted.

He didn't know that all his reactions, from the beginning to the present, were all under Gu Shen's observation.

Dozens of blazing flames were hidden in the mountain ash, staring at his performance from all angles and calculating his reaction.

"Um……"

Gu Shen held out his hand.

Unexpectedly, Adam threw the eyeball jar soaked in the Eye of Destiny over.

thump.

The jars are heavy.

Adam smiled and said, "Since you killed Suzaku, our deal is considered complete... I leave this eye to you. I'm not interested in it, but how do you use it?"

"More than [-]% of the sealed items can be driven by 'spiritual power'."

Gu Shen lowered his eyebrows and stared at the blood-colored pupils in the bottle, thoughtfully, and chuckled lightly, "It's probably because of the spiritual force immersed in it... I guess, it's all right?"

talking.

He opened the jars.

Taking out the Eye of Destiny... He had held this eyeball before, and indeed exuded an ancient, mysterious and evil aura.

Between Gu Shen's brows, a fire was burning.

He released his mental power, and the eyeball dangled around, covered with countless bloodshot——

The moment when Blazing Fire and Eye of Destiny combine!
A tiny speck of dust landed on the "eye pupil".

There was a subtle, imperceptible tearing sound.

Immediately afterwards, countless blood-colored flames exploded from that eye pupil. A small eyeball, but the size of a baby's palm, exploded with millions of scarlet flames, and this flame was like a big bowl. Be careful with the back button!

The majestic spiritual power is like the Tianhe empowerment.

"Crash!"

Gu Shen's body was immediately frozen, and at the same time, a sudden gust of wind swept over, and a large amount of mountain ash spewed out from the [Tan Yao] mountain pass arrived in no time. flames.

The tall, blond man took action at the shattering moment of the Pure Land Realm.

Adam's pupils turned scarlet.

His speed is astonishing.

The folded iron wing was picked up by him casually, his palm was as hot as lava, the ancient text and the iron wing instantly melted in his palm, condensing into a long and narrow sword!
"Whoosh!"

The sound of piercing the sky, smashing the dust and sand.

Adam stabbed his sword into the bright blood-colored fire that exploded from the Eye of Destiny. Inside the upside-down bowl, two flames were fighting fiercely. Under the trembling, an obviously bright and thin figure stood out.

This sword aimed at "Gu Shen"'s forehead and pierced through it!

tear it up!

Yi Tie's sword is not very sharp, but in a sudden attack, as long as it is enough to break through the defense of the extraordinary, then even if it is really just a piece of iron, it is enough to kill.

Gu Shen has a sixth-order source armor.

An ordinary attack, even if it goes straight to the heart, can be stopped by the sixth-order source armor.

This is why Adam pierced his forehead with a sword.

This sword pierces through the forehead and exits from the back of the head. There is no close-fitting armor to defend this position. As long as the attack speed is fast enough, the stabbed person has no time to activate [Flash], and it will be a deadly situation!

This stab was planned very successfully.

Gu Shen is a top spiritual transcendent.

To prevent him from activating [End Flash], he had to restrict the activation of his spiritual sea, and after the "eye pupil" exploded, countless bloody flames descended with majestic killing intent, making Gu Shen unable to move at all.

So this sword pierced through the bloody fire smoothly, and landed on Gu Shen's forehead!

[Tan Yao] Flying sand and rocks on the ridge.

After this stab.

Time seems to freeze.
