Ember Gun

   Chapter 202 The Distorted Unknown

In this complex and mysterious valley, 042 finally found some clues. 016 and 011 were on guard. They were not afraid of the enemy. They were just worried that they could not protect this man in the melee. After all, he was the only one who could communicate at the moment. The object of it.

  The only reason in this crazy valley.

  042 took a potion out of his pocket, which might help the dying man.

  It may be that he has suffered great pain before. The man did not resist the 042 violent injection. He was paralyzed on the ground like a dead man, with only a slightly undulating chest, announcing that he was not dead.

  A little bit of time passed, the medicine took effect, and the man's breathing became violent, which made him a lot better. He looked at the cruel demon hunters with turbid and collapsed eyes.

   "You...who are you?"

  There was trepidation in his voice.

  042 was covered by armor at this moment, and fire was flashing under the dark visor. In this depressing environment, only unknown fear was given to people.

  "Come to save your people." 042 replied briefly, "So tell me, what is going on here?"

  The man didn't seem to listen to 042 at all. He spoke fast, as if something was chasing him.

  "Stranger...stranger!" His voice sharpened, which made 042 look very unpleasant. He didn't want something strange to be attracted by a man's voice.

  "You...are from outside?"

  The panicked eye pupils continued to expand, pushing the only white of the eye back to the edge of the eyeball, and the entire eye socket seemed to be dark.

   "Outside?" 042 listened to him, then nodded, affirming this.

  After seeing 042's affirmation, the man became even more crazy. He tried to struggle, but was stifled by 042's powerful hand.

   "You are demons! You are demons! Sure enough, the Pure Land has fallen!"

  042 severely covered the man's mouth, letting him be as quiet as possible.

  Very good, the most troublesome step in the work of the demon hunter has arrived. After facing extreme fear, ordinary people are crazy. Usually, it is very difficult to find out what information is in the mouth of these lunatics.

  042 did not appease the man, but showed a vicious face. He set up the nail sword and said viciously.

   "Yes, I am a demon. Your last pure land has been captured by me... But as long as you answer my question, I will allow you to live. Is it clear?"

   "No, no, no..."

  The man wailed, but 042 was not polite at all, and the nail sword swung down slightly, leaving a shallow wound on the already riddled body.

   "Of course you can refuse, but what is waiting for you will be the cruel punishment."

  011 seems to disagree with 042's approach, but what he cares about is not the problem of intimidating men, but that 042 scares the only clue to death.

   Obviously, this man's consciousness is not bad, or his desire for death made him temporarily control the panic. He breathed violently, using all his strength to stabilize his almost exploding heartbeat.

  After a long pause, he nodded hard after being pressed to the ground.

   "Very good, then the first question... In your eyes, what happened to the outside world?"

  042 asked from a side angle that he needed to understand the world in the eyes of this man.

   "Destroyed... Completely destroyed, the demons finally escaped from the prison and completely destroyed the mortal world."

  The demon hunters looked at each other. The destruction of the world seemed to be what the end-of-community can say, and the entire valley town can basically be confirmed to be under the control of the last-of-community.

  But the question is where does everyone’s strange sense of oppression originate? Similar to but different from erosion, it constantly increases psychological pressure.

   "Then why do you say that the Pure Land has fallen?"

   "Because...because they come... everywhere..."

  The man’s words were crazy and hard to distinguish.

However, it seems that this is not a pure land statement. People are not unable to enter, but that the people who come in are basically killed by them. It seems that the reason for the isolation of the entire valley town has also been found, not only the problem of the terrain, they Controlled by the final association, the group of gods stripped this place from the present society and established a cruel pure land here.

   "You are not afraid of the demons, then..." 042 looked at the corpse killed by him on the other side, "Why are there still killings."

  The pursuit of final association is death, the destruction of all things, and the ultimate nothingness.

  So everything related to it will eventually go to death, but 042 needs to know what they are doing with these deaths at this moment, and whether it is related to an unknown power that the demon hunter does not yet understand.

   "We will die, we will all die, but to die here, as long as we go through the ceremony, we will be ascended to heaven." The man's voice whimpered, even a little hard to distinguish.

  "In other words, after some **** ritual, your soul will be able to ascend to heaven?"

  042 I didn’t expect it to be like this.

   "You won't understand, it's true..."

   Seeing the mocking look on 042's face, the man said repeatedly, but then he screamed as if he had thought of something.

   "Yes! You want to stop me! You want to stop me!"

  He shouted, and the struggle became more intense, "I can't die here, I want to die in the ceremony, I want to ascend to heaven!"

  042 said in a bit wicked and funny way.

  "If you have money, I can forgive your sins as a pastor."

  He pressed the man to death, apparently the brainwashing of the final association was very successful, and these residents believed it.

  Ke 042 still feels that something is wrong, but those people who have some IQ may not make the situation worse, so how can the association do all this without using the power of the demon?

   "042!"

  011 suddenly yelled anxiously, it seemed that it was only a short time to call out 042's name, but this was enough.

  042 knows the danger is coming, but he is protected by armor. The only thing to think about now is where the danger comes from.

  But sometimes this is not dangerous.

  The man struggled vigorously, as if he had drawn all his strength, he abruptly escaped from 042's hands, even though he was cut by the erected nail sword, he didn't care, his figure was faltering.

011 and 016 moved at the same time. They couldn't let the man leave, but a sudden howling sounded, and a spear-like weapon pierced out of the mist outside the window. It directly hit the man, piercing him, and nailing him to death. .

  Everything happened so fast, 042 walked directly to the man and asked.

   "What is the so-called ceremony?"

  But the man answered him.

   "This is the ceremony!"

  On the twisted face, there is peace, as if this is not death, but a gift.

  042 suddenly understood that the so-called ritual is death, and the death that occurred in the valley town is the reason why those lunatics are not afraid of death. What they have to do is death, death in the valley town.

  "Go to heaven after death...what the hell." 042 said angrily.

   "No... pay attention to what he said, die here." 016 pointed to the land under his feet, and the problem was in the valley town.

  But 011 did not participate in the discussion. He stared at the window that pierced the spear. Someone was walking after the fog, perhaps the remaining lunatics, who wanted to perform the ritual of death through the demon hunter.

  But as he approached the window, 011's inner pressure increased. He seemed to see something, and the determined witcher also caused a strange panic.

   "042...it's coming..."

In 011’s eyes, the twisted weirdness behind the fog slowly walked towards the building. 011 couldn’t distinguish its appearance, as if its weird body was engraved with symbols that were hard to look at. The demon hunter couldn’t judge it. The form, you can only feel the fear that originated from it.

   "Is this the end of the story?"

  Kestrel sat on the side of the house, looking at the horrified demon hunters.

   “Yes, but don’t expect too much, get rid of those weird parts. From the perspective of a third party, the ending is actually quite clichéd.”

   Lorenzo said lightly, with a calm look.

   "But you said it is very special and important." Robin asked.

   "Indeed, this incident made me realize a very deep thing."

  Lorenzo stood up and walked to the window to look at the weirdness in the mist with the demon hunters.

  "Many times, when you start to understand the ‘unknown’ and give it an intelligible concept, the ‘unknown’ is no longer the original ‘unknown’.”

   "You were misled and misunderstood at that moment."

thank! wind! elder brother! elder brother! I cried you guys
