demon godfather

Werner Welf grabbed the paper copied from the archives, crumpled it up, sat down on the small bed in the warehouse, and wiped his forehead like wiping sweat.The Morrisons were condescending and stared at him coldly.

"Yes," he said, "I am Benjamin Tristan."

"You're not dead?"

"I didn't die. That fire, ah, that fire..." He raised his head, staring blankly at the ceiling, "I didn't die. But everyone thought I was buried in the sea of ​​fire, if it wasn't for the Apocalypse Knight..."

Chris exchanged a surprised look with his sister. "Knight of the Apocalypse?" he asked. "Which knight?"

"Who else. 'War' on the red horse, my unfinished 'Helen of Troy.'"

"Helen? She saved you?!"

"It's not quite right to say 'rescue'," said Werner Welf, or Benjamin Tristan, to himself. Everything they do is at their behest - War and the other Knights of the Apocalypse."

"What have you done!" Abby exclaimed in surprise, "Is there anything else we don't know?"

"There are so many things you don't know."

"Why did the Apocalypse Knights choose you? What is their purpose?"

"Purpose?" Benjamin Tristan giggled, "They are the knights of the apocalypse, what purpose can they have?" He looked at Abby, but his eyes passed her, and he surrendered to the distance, "The end is coming. They All I wished for from beginning to end was the end of the day."

Dominic has nowhere to go.

A mortal has no chance of winning against an Apocalypse Knight, let alone three at once.Apart from immediately kneeling down and begging for mercy, he really couldn't think of any wonderful way to save his life.

"Helen, Helen, hear me, calm down, are you making a mistake?" His throat was dry, and he uttered a few words with difficulty, "I know that summoning Armageddon requires a 'key', or a sacrifice The 'lamb', but it must be a child who has passed the 'black baptism'? I heard from Abaddon that my 'black baptism' has not been completed, so I am not a qualified 'lamb'..."

"'Black Baptism' is just a means of making 'keys'. There are other means." War Knight said.

"As long as you meet the necessary conditions, you can become a 'lamb'." Famine Knight said.

"Now the three conditions have all been met." The death knight said.

"The Apocalypse Knights have only one goal from beginning to end, and that is the end of the world." Benjamin Tristan grinned, forcing out a smile uglier than crying, "They want to summon Armageddon, the doomsday battlefield. However, in ancient times, Armageddon was sealed by angels and demons. To summon it to come again, there must be a 'key' to open the seal, or a 'lamb' for sacrifice. Of course, This 'lamb' is not for everyone, only those sons of men who have both angelic and demon bloodlines, have undergone 'black baptism', and have reached the age of 19, are eligible to become 'lambs'."

"Is there such a person in the world?" Abby asked.

"Of course there are. Although they are rare, they do exist. At present, there are two sons of man who have both angel and demon bloodlines. One of them has undergone the 'black baptism' and has reached the age of 19, and has obtained the status of a 'lamb' .his name is Scott Singer."

An ominous premonition suddenly appeared in Chris's heart: "The other one, could it be..."

"The other one is Dominique Montale."

"You said Dominic was the 'key' to summon Armageddon?!"

"No, he wasn't qualified at first. Something happened to him when he went through the 'black baptism'. I don't know exactly what the situation was. The Apocalypse Knight didn't tell me, but what is certain is that his baptism ceremony failed Yes. However, to make a person a "lamb", it is not necessary to carry out "black baptism". There are other methods, as long as three conditions are met. It is to achieve those three conditions that the Apocalypse Knight saves and ordered me to work for them secretly."

Two big muddy palms emerged from the ground, grabbing Dominic's calf tightly.His center of gravity was unstable, his knees bent, and he fell to his knees. His knees hit the small stones on the ground, causing him to grin his teeth in pain.

The Apocalypse Knights surrounded him.Under the starry sky, the three women all looked extremely glamorous, but who would have thought that they were the scariest people in the world at this moment?

The war knight opened his hands, and the leather jacket on his body turned into a bright red tulle dress, dancing in the night without wind, like a handful of dancing flames.

"The first condition," she said in a sad and mournful voice, like a bleak elegy at a funeral, "this son has neither parents, children, nor brothers and sisters, no attachments, no attachments, and is alone."

"Dominique Montale's biological parents are dead, right?" Benjamin Tristan raised his chin, motioning for Chris to answer.

"It should be like this." Chris felt chills all over his body. "I heard that his father passed away and his mother disappeared, so he was adopted by the godfather... You mean, the Apocalypse Knight killed his parents with his own hands?"

"Kill? There's no need for that. His parents are demon hunters, and there's no monster in the world who doesn't want their lives. As long as the war knight stops there casually, someone will naturally take their heads. The war knight is the most Adept at starting a fight, where she is, there is always blood and death."

Famine Knight clasped his hands and placed them in front of him.She was dressed in black like ink, almost blending with the night.

"The second condition," her voice was soft and low, like whispering on a lover's pillow, "this son has a noble character and is willing to sacrifice his life for the one he loves, even if he falls into hell."

"Next, the Apocalypse Knight must create the right environment so that Dominique Montale is willing to sacrifice himself for true love. This move must be taken very carefully. If he dies unwillingly, the second This condition cannot be met. The Apocalypse Knights have been planning for a long time, and finally they came up with a foolproof method, which is to give Dominique Montale a chance to resurrect, and then kill him and his sweetheart at the same time, If Dominic gives up the chance of resurrection to his lover, he will automatically fulfill the second condition."

Chris gasped.Abby looked at him puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"The fire in the shelter," Chris said with a pale face, "Dominique died, and I was almost unscathed. Could it be that..."

"It was planned by the Apocalypse Knight long ago. When Dominic entered the university and met you, the plan of the Apocalypse Knight began. Of course, it doesn't matter which school he enters and who he falls in love with, even if the object is not you It doesn't matter, the key is that he must have a lover. Because that lover happens to be you, so the Apocalypse Knight hit your head. It just so happens that your family relationship is relatively complicated, which is creating opportunities for them.

"The death of your brother Jared was not accidental. Helen used her influence to intensify the conflict around Jared, causing him to be overwhelmed by the pressure and commit suicide. Afterwards, Famine Knight ordered me to take the black ship model Sell ​​it to your sister—of course, at that time, I always thought that 'her' was 'brother', so I didn't recognize her for a while. The power of famine resides in the ship model. Under its influence, your sister dug out took Jared's body and tried to revive him."

Benjamin Tristan glanced at Abby, "Then it's the Plague Knight's turn. She was deliberately captured by your pharmaceutical company, and the virus extracted from her can resurrect the dead and turn them into undead zombies. When the time is right , the Plague Knight persuaded Jared the Living Dead to find a remote town to develop a zombie army. At this time, the Death Knight appeared "in due course" and reminded Dominique Montale and his little lover to go to that town to act as a savior. When the incident is resolved, the Plague Knight is free, the zombie army is wiped out, and the Death Knight reappears 'in due course', pretending to thank Dominique Montale for giving him a chance to be resurrected. Then they just need to find another chance Kill both of you at the same time, let Dominic give up the chance of resurrection, and the second condition is fulfilled."

The death knight's expression was as calm as that of the dead, his gray clothes drooped, and he remained motionless. His whole body was as quiet and beautiful as a mourning angel in a mausoleum.

"The third condition," she said firmly, as if the prophet's prophecy was unchangeable, foretelling the end of everything. "This son once visited hell, and then returned to the mortal world to become a human again."

"In the end, Dominique Montale must die and be resurrected. This 'death' cannot be an ordinary 'death', his soul must first go to hell and then return to the world. If his body remains, then he It may be possible to revive the soul, but even if the body is cremated, it doesn't matter. The "key" to open the seal is enough. Even if Dominique Montale returns to the world as a ghost, the third condition has been fulfilled. He is A dark hunter, so he will go to hell in all likelihood after death. There is no suspense. The key is how he gets out of hell. He needs a guide to help him escape, and I, the pawn of the Apocalypse Knight, is the one Guide."

Benjamin Tristan finished speaking in one breath and slowed down.Abby and Chris were silent, waiting for him to continue.

"It is very difficult for living people to enter hell, and they must have the permission of a demon above the title of duke. It is difficult for the knights of the apocalypse to persuade high-level demons to cooperate with them. After all, demons are busy fighting for power and profit, and are not interested in things like the end of the world. Therefore, they They simply captured one by themselves. Many years ago, the Apocalypse Knights teamed up with the Demon Hunters Association at the time to seal Abaddon, the Grand Duke of Hell, in the magic book. Only a magician can release Abaddon. I think at that time, they couldn't predict when this magician would appear, just to leave a way out for themselves. If this magician is lucky to become a 'lamb', then they will use He summons Armageddon. If he doesn't, then they use him to release Abaddon and start the 'three conditions' plan. In modern times, children of angelic and demonic blood have finally appeared, one of whom is both a 'lamb' ', another magician, and the other has nothing but his own special blood. So the Apocalypse Knight used the former to lift Abaddon's seal, and then tried every means to turn the latter into a 'lamb'. Of course, all these actions must look like Naturally, one cannot be suspicious.

"20 years ago, after Scott was born, the Knights of the Apocalypse handed over one of the two grimoires to humans. This grimoire was taken away by Abaddon's subordinates. The other grimoire was later given to me. For a long time, I have always played the role of a black market dealer, so buying and selling magic items will not be a big surprise. I sold the grimoire to Scott Singer through ebuy, and I specifically reminded him that the teleportation spell recorded in the grimoire is extremely convenient and practical , to tempt him to try that spell. As long as he casts the teleportation spell, it will attract the attention of Abaddon's subordinates. They will definitely kidnap Scott Singer and force him to release Abaddon. As the prince of hell, Abaddon has many eyeliners, so it is easy You can find me who sells the magic tome. He will definitely not let me stay in the world and live happily. Either kill me or imprison me. Both methods can let me enter hell smoothly. I am looking for the crack out of hell ', while waiting for Dominic to arrive.

"I am not the only undercover in hell. Jared Morrison is also one of the chess pieces of the Apocalypse Knight. If my mission fails, he will be responsible for guiding Dominic out of hell. After Dominic entered hell, he was picked up by Abaddon. Back to the palace. I persuaded him to escape together, and went to the Dragon Tomb with him. There is a 'crack' there, but I have not found the exact location. Our whereabouts were exposed, and Abaddon's patrol team came to catch us. At the critical moment, Jared appeared and pointed out the location of the 'crack' to Dominic. Thanks to his help, we successfully escaped hell and returned to the world. In this way, the third condition is also fulfilled."

After Benjamin Tristan finished speaking, there was a dead silence in the warehouse.Abby and Chris were petrified, unable to speak for a while.After a while, Chris asked eagerly: "So...well, Dominic has become the 'key', and he can... summon Armageddon at any time?"

Benjamin Tristan nodded.

"Wait a minute!" Abby pressed his brother's shoulders, telling him not to act rashly, "There is something strange, don't you think?"

Chris shook his head slowly.Benjamin Tristan's speech was too informative, and he couldn't digest it for a while.

"Dominic's christening ceremony failed, but Scott's succeeded! He is also one of the 'keys'! So why did the Knights of the Apocalypse go far and hard to get Dominic to meet the three conditions instead of arresting him? How about Scott?"

"Because Scott Singer is the godson of 'that demon'." Benjamin Tristan said, "'that demon' has been guarding him every step of the way, and it is difficult for the knights of the apocalypse to approach. And for Dominic who is not the 'key', "That demon" is much negligent, so the Knights of the Apocalypse racked their brains to make a fuss about Dominic. In addition, Scott is also a heavy insurance. If the plan against Dominic fails, the Knights of the Apocalypse will go to take Scott away. It is not too late. At this moment, Dominic has returned to the world, and the knights must have found him. They will not waste time, I guess, Armageddon will come soon. Just kill Scott , everything is ready.”

"Why did you kill Scott?!" Abby exclaimed, "Don't they already have Dominique?"

Benjamin Tristan laughed darkly, "You only know one thing, but not the other. The 'key' can open Armageddon, and naturally it can also close it. And each 'key' can only be used once. In other words, even if the Apocalypse Knights use Dominic to summon Armageddon, as long as Scott is still alive, there is a way to seal it again. How could the Apocalypse Knights let this happen? So they must cut the roots and cut off the troubles."
