Going deep into the valley, the road becomes more and more thrilling and difficult.Those who have to cross here will have a hard time.There is almost no foothold on the steep mountain wall, and there is a bottomless abyss further ahead.Compared with the towering mountains on both sides, the road bridge built by the state government between the cliffs is as small as a toy.

The sun doesn't even shine in this place, it's quiet and gloomy.Because of the dead silence around, whenever you step on the moving rocks, the sound of their shaking and rubbing is very clear, which is frightening.Not to mention the harsh mountain wind, which hurts people's faces.In addition to the workers, only exorcists will come to this place.

Louis has long been used to activities in this environment.He initially guessed that Roland would not be used to this, or even come with him.In his perception, those southerners lived a pampered life on the warm plains and could not adapt to the difficult environment at all.

However, the facts are unexpected.Roland came with him, carrying his notebook.Louis had seen the other party record what he had said and draw sketches in that book.The other party came prepared, and after knowing that he was going to go on a mountain road, he quickly took out his short coat, long but not cumbersome trousers, and hiking boots.At that time, Louis looked at all this and was stunned.

"You don't have to come. I have already told you about the experience of slaying dragons in the past. You should have stayed in the safe hotel, organized your language, and written a chapter or two of your novel." Louis looked back The other side glanced. "You are not slow to walk on the mountain road. I thought you wouldn't get used to it."

"I have also climbed mountains. After the factory was operating normally, I traveled to collect materials, even the mountains of Utah." Roland explained why he was able to walk here as usual.

Louis nodded, but wasn't entirely convinced.He still can't believe the other party.Although Roland seemed like a kind and ordinary man, there were still many doubts about him.

"If it wants to hide, it can only be here. The caves left by the mountains in the past and the deep pits left by quarrying can accommodate fire dragons. I told you that demons are very good at 'ambush', but for fire dragons, there is no need to worry at all This. They're too big, with bright red skin, and the sound of their wings beating like thunder. It won't stand a chance of killing us by surprise, and at best I'll die with it."

Roland frowned.Louis had seldom mentioned death to him, and this was too deliberate now.He diverted the topic: "There are also dragons among the demons mentioned in the Bible?"

"You must have heard of the 'Red Dragon'. It is usually defined as Lucifer after the fall. Of course, it will not come to the world in person. Satan will not come to the world, because the church has a tie with the devil."

"But they are still angry, so they let the demons rampage in the world to demonstrate against the church, right? It's like you want to wipe out all the remaining demons in the world. The war is not over."

"Yes, it's not over yet. This is a good thing, otherwise I will lose my job." Louis stopped and looked up at the cliff in front of him—it was probably the highest position in the entire mountain area.He needs to climb up and lure the dragon out.He wasn't going to look for it across the mountains, it would be tiring and dangerous and boring.He took off his coat, took out his weapon, and told Roland, "Wait for me here. I'm going to climb up and lead it out later."

Roland looked up subconsciously.The daylight beyond the valley made him uncomfortable and closed his eyes.Although he only had a glimpse of the towering stone wall in front of him, this glance also made Roland dizzy. "How do you want to seduce?"

"Use blood." Louis began to climb up with a weapon in one hand.Although he was climbing with one hand, he quickly and smoothly reached the top of the rock wall.Roland kept watching him.

Louis cut his wrist, causing blood to gush out.He waits.The bleeding from the wound slowed down, and the howl of the wind sounded in the valley.The smell of animals began to mix in the air.Louis waved to Roland. "Stand back, it's coming..."

Roland always listened to Louis' instructions, but this time he did not retreat, but rushed forward two steps.There was a look of terror in his usually calm eyes.A strong wind whizzed by, ruffling his hair and rattling his scarf.

A huge red dragon skims over the top of the cliff, and Louis is no longer where he was.

When the dragon appeared, Louis only stared at its huge claws.He pulled the trigger on the sole of the dragon's foot as it spread its sharp claws to grab him.The long silver thorn pierced the sole of the dragon's foot, and then exploded.Before it could turn around and breathe fire on itself, Louis climbed onto its hind paws, trying to use that as a starting point to climb up its back.

Louis's original plan was to get the dragon's claws to catch him, and then it would be easy to fire weapons at its huge body.However, he gave up when he discovered that the bottom of the cliff was about a thousand feet away, and the bottom was full of sharp rubble.The dragon often takes the creature that provokes it high into the air, and then releases its claws to make it fall.He didn't want to be smashed to pieces.

Louis tried to climb up the dragon's body, but it was much more difficult than climbing a mountain.The smooth scales made it impossible for him to fight, and the enraged dragon was trying to throw him off and spewed red flames.Although the flame was not aimed at Louis, he still felt the scorching heat.The only thing he can do now is to grab the dragon's claws and fire at the dragon's long wings at the same time.

After a while, the fire dragon seemed to calm down and began to glide smoothly.As it leaped across the canyon, it bent its long neck back and stared at Louis with frighteningly large golden eyes.He pulled the trigger on its head, but made a fatal mistake—his grip on the body loosened.The dragon whirled around, throwing him out.

Louis landed himself flat on his back.The powerful impact made him roll a few times on the ground.Except for the pain in his back from the gravel on the ground, Louis' body was fine.But now he began to worry: the dragon is a very clever creature, and it has realized that it can sear itself with only the fire, so it will not try to catch itself.It must be provoked again, but how?

He noticed where he was standing again.The abyss lay before him, and the edge of the cliff was only two steps away.He walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down.The stone bridge is directly below.This is for delivery, and there are usually no horse-drawn carriages.Louis had an idea.

With a whistle to the fire dragon hovering in the air, Louis pulled the trigger on its short foreleg.With an accurate hit, one forelimb was blown to pieces.He put the machine crossbow on the ground, jumped to the side, avoiding the flames sprayed by the fire dragon, and jumped out of the cliff at the same time.

Louis was falling rapidly, the wind whistling in his ears.He heard someone calling his name loudly, it seemed to be Roland, but he couldn't tell where the voice came from.He should have fallen into the deep valley, but he grabbed the stone handrail on one side of the bridge with his hands, and finally turned over and collapsed on the bridge in embarrassment.It took him a while to get up because of the pain.However, just as he stood firmly, the place where he stood shook violently.Not only the bridge, but also the cliffs on both sides were shaking, and the shattered rocks were flying around.

"Things are going well." Louis stabilized his body, tired and happy.

Enraged, the fire dragon flew into the sky, and then swooped down.The result of its visual inspection was that Louis would fall into a deep ravine, so it rushed under the bridge.However, compared to its huge body, the cliffs on both sides here are not far apart.This caused the fire dragon to be stuck between the thick stone walls, and it couldn't even stretch its wings.It can only raise its long neck and spray flames towards the cliff, angry and futile.

"It's time to end." Louis jumped towards the connection between the dragon's neck and body, and pulled out the long knife from his waist. "In the name of God." Without delay, he severed its long neck.

The fire dragon's body disappeared out of thin air.It turned into dust little by little and disappeared into the air.Before being completely suspended in the air, Louis ran and jumped on the dragon's back, trying to land on the edge of the bridge.

A little short.Louis had run out of strength.But he didn't fall into the canyon—a strong hand caught him.

Louis looked up.Roland looked very embarrassed now, the black coat became gray due to the dust, and the scarf that was neatly stacked around his neck was torn.The other person is also coughing, and at the same time pay attention to yourself.But Roland still maintained his demeanor, as always. "I got you," he said with a smile.

It was a soothing tone, but it made Louis panic.Although the environment and the appearance of the people in front of me were different from those at that time, the scene from the previous life revived in my mind again.The guy grabbed his cold and stiff hand a second before he was about to fall into the deep water, showed an elegant but arrogant smile, and said - "I've got you."

At a certain moment, Louis was almost certain that the guy in front of him was the one who deceived and seduced him.

But there is one more noticeable difference.That guy has strong and powerful wings. His condition was very critical just now. If it was him, he would probably show his original shape and fly to rescue him.He doesn't need to worry about refusing to join forces with demons.What he needs is not his allegiance, but that fresh and powerful heart. "You were down there just now. How did you get up here?"

"Of course I climbed up!" Panting, Roland said excitedly, "When I saw it was about to throw you out, I decided to climb up. I thought, if you fell right above the bridge, I might I can save you. We have to leave quickly, the impact just now was too great, and the bridge may collapse." He pulled Louis up and carried him on his back.

"You move very quickly."

"Because I climbed a ladder. The bridge builders left a ladder on the side of the bridge. Although it was rusted, the rivets driven into the rock were still strong."

"Oh! So that's the case." Louis suddenly realized.He suddenly felt guilty for being carried away from the dangerous area by Roland.This person may really care about him, but he has been suspicious of the other party.He tried to lighten the mood with a joke. "I hope the bridge is safe. If it falls, I feel sorry for the people of Missouri, who pay taxes and fees to build roads and bridges. They spend at least a quarter of their income every year. By taking it out, I'm destroying the bridge their sweat built."

Roland didn't answer, but just concentrated on climbing the ladder.It wasn't until the moment his feet touched the ground that he said, "I feel sorry for you now. You don't care about yourself, and you always want to show your life for the church. Sometimes this kind of sacrifice is meaningless."

It is not the Church that I serve, but the Light.If the church falls, I'll get out of it and do what I have to do.

Louis wanted to say this, and by the way educate Roland well with the words from the Bible.Unfortunately, he doesn't have this opportunity right now.

He passed out.
