Ember Gun

  Chapter 705 Fire of War

The **** of death wandered between this magnificent city. He leaned on a sickle, standing in the shadow of the street, watching the running people with cold eyes, waiting for the moment when their lives were exhausted. Then he would wave his sickle, and he would be sad. The soul withdrew from the broken body and took the dead souls to the unknown shore together.

People flee in horror. Many people don’t know what happened. They asked around and no one could give an answer. They could only feel the sense of disgust in their hearts and the strange hallucinations that kept flashing in their minds. It seems that the nightmare is eating away at the cornerstone of reality, trying to connect with it and drag everyone into the real horror.

   "Go on! Don't stop!"

  The knights of the Templar held the torch high and commanded the evacuation of the crowd, and the line of long lines stretched to the end of the city.

  Seeing this, he couldn't help but also doubt, can he really get out of it? The population of Feilengcui is so large that even if the elderly and young children are not included, there are so many adults. After so long evacuated, the number of people in the city is still not low.

  Felengcui is lagging behind the times after all. Although there are dense railroad tracks here, it is undoubtedly far worse than the transportation capacity of Inervig.

  What's more, after leaving Feilengcui, where can they escape?

  The capacity of train transportation is limited. Most people will be evacuated outside the city, but beyond Feilengcui, there is an endless wilderness. In this wilderness, they have nowhere to hide.

   "Hurry up! Don't stop!"

  Nord continued to urge, he blinked vigorously, trying to clear himself up.

  In the past few days, he has been in high-intensity work. Only when he can't hold on, he will rest for a few hours, then hurriedly get up and continue his work.

When the new pope gave the order, Nord was in the home of seven hills and was carrying out evacuation work, probably because of his good work efficiency. He was able to leave from the home of seven hills and was transferred to Feilengcui, continue Work for evacuation.

Whenever he thinks of this, Nord feels that he is quite lucky. After he left the place of seven hills, the place of seven hills immediately entered a complete blockade. He can only stand here at Feilengcui and look at the place of seven hills. The fireworks inside kept burning.

The existence of the Demon Order is not a secret for a small number of Templar knights. Nord happens to be one of these few people. More importantly, his qualifications are very old, so old that he even remembers many years. The night before.

  The night that people deliberately forgot was so similar to everything nowadays that he couldn't help thinking about the situation in a bad direction.

  No, it's actually bad enough.

  All of the night of Saint Lin ended that night, but today's abnormal changes, which lasted for nearly a week, still have not been resolved, and everyone is full of fear, constantly fleeing.

  So this time... Will there be any monsters this time?

He thought about this, and suddenly great fear captured him. Nord looked around. At this moment, the people walking forward became hideous in his eyes. They wrapped their robes and resisted the cold wind, and looked pitiful. Civilians, but every one of them could become that bloodthirsty monster.

  He is in hell, but the **** at this moment hasn’t revealed that terrible and terrible appearance.

   Breathing became rapid, and Nord tried to throw away these messy thoughts, but they intensified in his mind, until a fire light rose from the other end of the street, and then the sound of hacking sounded.

  The crowd became frightened. They were like frightened sheep, crowding each other. Under the influence of erosion, their minds were wrapped in fear, and they were completely detonated at this moment.

  The soldiers were still trying to maintain order, but they were soon overwhelmed by the crowd. Some soldiers seemed to be relieved. They put down their weapons and joined the escape out of control.

   "Come back! You deserters!"

  Nord looked furious, raised the gun in his hand and wanted to shoot, but the crowd was so large that he could hardly aim from it, and then the other hand came out from the side, held the barrel of the gun, and forced it down.

  "Let them run away. For such a person, even if you force them to stay, you will only die when facing the monster."

  His voice is very soft and tired.

  Nord tried to shake off his hand, just about to say something, he saw the appearance of the person who came, and the sword on his waist.

Few people know the existence of the Demon Hunter Order, let alone the figure of the Demon Hunter, but Nord remembers that sword, a weirdly shaped sword, without a grid, as if it were cast in one piece, with a narrow and sharp blade. It is like a slender silver nail.

  The Demon Hunter.

  Nord looked at Samuel's face, and from his gloomy eyes, he could faintly see the rolling whiteness.

  He is a witcher, a mysterious witcher.

   "The Demon Hunter..."

"What's your name?"

   Samuel asked him first.

   "No...Noord, you can call me Noord."

   Samuel responded coldly, "Let’s go, or are you going to escape together?"

   drove the horse underneath him to advance, perhaps due to the homology of the monster. Samuel exudes an abominable aura, which makes people instinctively avoid him, as if he is some kind of humanoid monster.

The same is true for the war horse under the hips. It is driven by Samuel and obeys it wholeheartedly.

  Nord looked at the back of Samuel's departure, his words were more provocative than choices.

  Fulfill his duties, or just run away, just like those panicked soldiers.

  Nord did not hesitate for too long, he grasped the reins, followed Samuel, squeezing the crowd with great effort, and marching in parallel with Samuel.

  "Aren't you afraid?" Samuel asked slightly curiously, "From your eyes, you are very scared."

"I know I know."

  Nord resisted the repression and continued talking.

   "But I also experienced that night."

  "Holy Pro Night?"

   Samuel said that taboo vocabulary, his expression seemed even more unexpected, and he did not expect that he would meet the experienced person here.

   "Yes, I have experienced it myself, so I know what kind of end will come if I don't kill these disasters in the cradle."

  Nord is breathing hard, which may be the reason for walking with Samuel. At this moment, he is not as scared as before.

  The demon hunters are very powerful, beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Although they were born in the darkness, at this moment, they are the only torch in the darkness. Following Samuel, Nord feels a little relaxed.

  At least...at least with Samuel, and with this demon hunter, he will not suddenly die from an attack by a demon.

   "I am different from those cowards, fear or something, this kind of thing, one size fits one size," Nord mumbled, "I am a member of the Templar, guarding our noble god."

   "God...?"

  Samur whispered, a strange light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say much.

   "However, the demon hunter, in the place of the seven hills..."

  Nord tried to ask about all this, but Samuel responded indifferently.

  "Stop asking, Nord, you don’t want to know."

   Samuel drew out the nail sword, the silver sword exuded a cold glow.

They are getting closer and closer to the commotion in the fire. Nord only feels uneasy, but Samuel can feel the erosion in the air. They carry a smell similar to blood, and continue to spread. Everyone who breathed in was brought into a frantic blur.

   "By the way, Nord, what is your position in the Knights Templar?"

  The distance is getting closer, Samuel asked suddenly.

   "Other soldiers and templar knights, they won't follow my instructions. They may not even know the existence of the Demon Hunter."

   "Oh? This one."

  Hearing this, Nord took up the gun again, holding the gun in one hand, and pulling out the knight sword in the other.

   "I am the commander of thousands."

   "Chief of thousands?"

This time, Samuel was stunned. This position is in the Knights Templar, second only to the chiefs, and the general commander who is held by the pope himself. It is a high-level commander who can independently lead troops to fight. .

   "Are you surprised? Don't be too surprised. If you can survive that bad night, you might be promoted to this position."

  Nord made a strange joke, then galloped on his horse, roared, and ran away from the crowd.

   "Let's go! Demon hunter! I was your enemy many years ago, but now I want you to fight side by side!"

  Samuel followed him, faced the violent wind, and asked him.

   "Then how do you feel? Nord!"

  "Very good. Compared with the out-of-control demon hunters, I think these monsters are all amiable!"

  In the cheers, chaotic gunfire sounded, blood was splashed, the corpse fell, and the roar of the wild beast played with the wailing of the crowd.

Under the pressure of erosion, some people are finally unable to maintain their sanity and fell into madness. The dark side of their hearts is infinitely magnified, and they wield weapons to attack the surrounding citizens. Fortunately, they are just falling into madness. No alienation into a monster.

  The sharp sword and bullet rain fell, smashing their bodies to pieces easily.

  Using violence to control violence is very simple, but if you want to control the fear of spread, this obviously can only be counterproductive. What's more, there is no time and energy for the knights to promote love and peace.

   "Control the scene! Don't be soft, don't kill them, they will become obstacles, which will affect us in turn!"

  Samur ordered coldly, and Nord also shouted and opened fire.

Nord unexpectedly cooperated with Samuel’s instructions and did not say any nonsense. Probably it was because he had fought with these demon hunters, or the lesson of blood and pain told him that this kind of fight against evil is just It should be handled by experts.

   "Leave the minimum number of people to maintain order, and the rest will follow us." Samuel continued.

   "Then sooner or later here will be out of control again." Nord said.

  "It’s okay. Human instinct is to survive. Although it is a bit cruel, they will still try to escape. The farther away you can escape, the better. This is no different from our original intention."

   Samuel continued.

   "Now there are signs here. Judging from the scope of the erosion influence, the demon will appear first in the place where the seven hills are located, and we have to reinforce there in advance!"

   "Demon" and "erosion" words to Nord sound like black words among the demon hunters, but as a Templar knight, he also felt the dark meaning of these words to some extent.

  At this time, what is needed is not a templar, but a professional demon hunter. Nord only needs to follow Samuel.

   "But why are you the only demon hunter!"

  Nord asked.

   "I said, Nord, some things are not good if you know too much."

   Samuel responded indifferently. Nord really shouldn’t know this, even if Samuel wanted to tell him, Samuel himself didn’t have the courage to say it.

  What should he say? Except for himself, all the demon hunters are in the place of seven hills, life and death are unknown.

   Samuel couldn’t do it. The current situation was enough to shake people’s hearts. He didn’t know whether Nord would escape like other soldiers after he knew all this.

  The current Nord still has the value of utilization, and Samuel needs him to make the Templar knights control the disaster as much as possible.

  As they talked, bursts of fire lighted up, rising from a distant place, falling into the night sky, lighting up most of the night.

  One after another flares rose, surrounding the place of seven hills, surrounding the burning city.

"this is…"

   Samuel trembled, and Nord was also completely stunned, and reluctantly squeezed the voice out of his throat.

  "The legions are at war, and the garrison is at war."

  This is the signal of war. The Templar knights stationed outside of the Seven Hills exchanged fire with the enemy. This also means that the demon broke through the blockade and escaped from the encirclement of the holy city.

  "Father..."

   Samuel was worried. He knew very well Anthony's toughness. As long as he breathed, they would never allow any demons to escape. Now the war is on, what about the demon hunters in the holy city?

  He didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

The momentary loss of consciousness made Samuel completely forget the things around him, all the sounds and light were going away, vaguely he could hear what Nord was yelling, the next moment the world spun around, and the pain felt afterward. Came from the ground.

   "What are you in a daze!"

Nord roared, and quickly got up from the ground. He had no time to shoot, so he could only lift the knight sword, and abruptly blocked a blow. During the harsh sound, Samuel's consciousness gradually became sober. Saw the grim-faced crowd on the side.

   "Alienation...began."

   Samuel was numb, he thought everything was too good, and when the erosion really happened, everything would only get worse.

  As the signal flare rose into the sky, the raging flames of war ooze out of the place of Qiqiu, igniting the nearby Feilengcui.

   "Kill them all!"

   Samuel was angry, filled his chest with anger, and slammed his sword and slashed his fears.
