  Chapter 682 The reincarnation of history [Thanks to the leader of the fleeting wine glass]

  The place of seven hills, the Cathedral of Saint Nalo.

Templar knights linger on the edge of the place of seven hills and the streets in the city. In normal times, these knights rarely appear directly in the eyes of the world, but they do not know when they appear more frequently, and the number of them increases. More and more.

Someone once recalled that everything seemed to start from the martial law of Saint Nalo Cathedral a long time ago. As for why the "long" period was used, it was natural that such martial law lasted for too long, and the people almost forgot about it. When it became like this, trying hard to remember, it was just a blur, as if the Cathedral of San Nalo was so strict from the beginning.

  It is not so much the sense of distance between man and God, it is better to say that on a certain night, the Cathedral of San Nalo became a cage of the devil, and it deliberately maintains a distance from the world...

   "Unrelated people leave as soon as possible!"

  There were soldiers scolding on the street, and not far away were heavily armed Templar knights who maintained order on the scene.

  As the hammer of the Pope, believers have always trusted them, but facing the demands of the Templars today, even if this order comes from the Pope, it makes them somewhat difficult to accept.

   "No, I can't leave!"

  Someone was crying like this, with blood on his forehead, kowtow constantly, begging for mercy.

Regrettably, this did not change his ending. The believers were dragged away by the soldiers and thrown into the slow-moving crowd. They formed a long team, guarded by soldiers and Templar knights, from Qiqiu. The corners of the place overflowed, gathered on the main road, and were driven out of the holy city.

  The believers are looking forward to the day when the martial law is lifted, so that they can see the magnificent church from a distance, but what will be ushered in after that is not the lifting of the martial law, but a deeper purification.

   "I can hold on!"

   Another believer shouted, his eyes were red, but he was quickly controlled by the soldiers.

  Along with another person's riot, more believers also shouted together, some of them were too extreme and crazy, shouting blasphemous words.

   "Here is eroded by darkness! They are crawling out of the shadow of God!"

  Another believer did not know when he left the group. He stood on a high place and shouted to everyone.

  "This sacred land will be polluted! We have to defend it! Until the end!"

  He yelled, even if the soldiers beat him roughly with a short stick, he tried to get up and continued to promote the words.

The words were like a crazy curse. It was like touching something. Many believers who bowed their heads slowly raised their heads, and another emotion flashed in their eyes. They clenched their fists, as if they were about to overthrow these soldiers and protect this area. land.

  From their beliefs, even if they are swallowed by darkness and die on this land, it is a supreme glory.

   "There is no darkness! The light of God will always shelter all this!"

  The Templar Knight noticed these subtle changes, and he immediately shouted loudly, with a loud voice, striking the hearts of believers like a bell.

  This seems to really shocked them, they became a lot more peaceful, but no one knows when the restlessness hidden in their hearts will rise again.

  Even the Templar himself was the same. He watched the believers who had been driven away. Not only did his anger just deter the believers, but the Templar knight was also trying to deter the fear in his heart.

  He looked at his colleagues, under the heavy helmet, in the darkness, he could see a pair of eyes similar to him, and the same emotions lurked under those eyes.

  The hand holding the rein trembled slightly, and a secret and weird babbling came from the noise around the ear.

  Yes, when did it all start?

  It seems to be a week ago, or maybe half a month ago, and the Templar knights can’t remember it. In short, it is deliberately affirmed that all this happened after martial law.

  At first, it was just some people who started to have nightmares. They dreamed of the **** of blood and bones, and heard the sound of the devil grinding teeth and sucking blood in the night.

At first there were very few such people. Even if someone said it, everyone thought that his faith was not pious enough, but gradually, this kind of nightmare swallowed more and more people, and most of them had difficulty under the attack of nightmares. When they fall asleep, their eyes are black, their whites are bloodshot, and their expressions are exhausted.

Gradually, such a nightmare seemed to have become a consensus. Everyone knew what they were experiencing, but they all silently kept silent, because they knew very well that this is the most sacred city in the world, and they live with the great pope. With a piece of land, if there is any place in the world that is closest to heaven, it must be here.

  The devil will not attack these pious people, and they believe it.

  Believers can’t convince themselves to believe in the truth of this nightmare. If this nightmare is real and comes from the torture of the devil, then what is such a pious and pious belief for them? Ridiculous lie?

  So they deceived themselves, in order to guard their sad beliefs, stubbornly regarded abnormal nightmares as poor spirits, and prayed more and more religiously until they fell into hysterical madness.

  The believers were looking forward to the appearance of the pope, but the last thing that was waiting was the expulsion. The pope did not explain the reason for all of this, but expelled most of the believers from the city, and even used the Templar Knights for this.

  Only those clergy with certain ranks were allowed to stay, with a minimum of manpower to maintain the operation of the entire city.

  "More and more believers are dissatisfied. Some extreme guys even think that Mianxia has long been invaded by the devil."

  There are people talking in the corner of the street. They are in the shadows, watching the procession on the street quietly.

  Hearing the words of the person who came, Anthony couldn't help smiling, his smile moved the scars on his face, and he looked very hideous and evil.

   "Is there still such an idea? Then what do they want to do, fork the crown and burn it as a heresy?"

   Anthony made a disturbing joke and turned his eyes to the person in the shadows.

   "I think you should take care of it, right?"

   "Well, they have been dealt with. Even with all the uncomfortable sounds, the families who are about to move around, we have issued a warning to them, and everything is under control now."

"That's good."

  Hearing this, Anthony nodded, and then couldn't help sighing again.

   "All this is really familiar."

  He took out a cigarette and lighted it up, vomiting mist.

   "Like many years ago, I helped wear the crown under the crown. In those days, we also rooted out the dissonance and drowned the opponents in the Tiber... Now everything is happening again before our eyes."

  Anthony narrowed his eyes like a sharp sword.

   "Samuel, inform the other witchers, no matter what, we must ensure that the place of the seven hills is under our control."

   Samuel answered, but he asked again without rushing to leave.

   "I don't think you need to worry like this. As you said, all this has happened. Just repeat it again, and that time we won."

   "Do you know what happened?"

  Listening to the deputy's words, Anthony smiled, and then asked back.

"you mean……"

  "This city, do you know what is happening in this city?"

Samuel shook his head. All these are the highest secrets. The only real insiders seem to be Anthony and Mianxia. Demon hunters like them are just tools to execute orders. Even martial law is effective for them without going through. Yes, even they can't get close to the Cathedral of Saint Nalo.

   "But I can feel the rush of erosion. The city is full of erosion, but I can't find the root of all this."

Samuel added that the nightmare of the believers comes from ubiquitous erosion, but whenever Samuel tries to chase the root of the erosion, he feels as if he is wrapped in erosion and is in the ocean tide. ...

  Like...just like this city, the whole is the source of erosion.

  Thinking of this, Samuel's thoughts trembled a little, and he didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

He, like many believers, has pure beliefs, so the heresy and heresy in Samuel's view are simply false. He will not allow himself to believe in such blasphemous things, such as this sacred city, which is the root of the evil. .

   "You still don't know anything, all this is like the history of reincarnation... Then do you know what happened here many years ago?"

   Anthony continued to ask, he was very leisurely, at least for now.

  "You help put on the crown under the crown..."

   "No, no, no, I mean before the change," Anthony interrupted Samuel directly, "think about it, before the change, what do you remember?"

   Samuel recalled, immediately after a forbidden word jumped into his mind, he felt cold all over his body, and his heart seemed to stagnate for a second.

   "Holy..."

   "Shhh..."

  Anthony put up his fingers and hiss stopped Samuel's words, as if it were some kind of spell, and it would come true.

   "What I am worried about is this. In the final analysis, defeating an opponent and becoming the Pope is just a struggle between people. But that kind of thing is not. It is simply impossible to generalize it by just using people to fight."

   "What...what is going on?"

  Samuel is like falling into an ice cellar. Anthony is still not in a hurry when he sees this, but he is interested and appreciates the panic of his deputy.

   "Don't worry too much, you just have to play the role of a good tool."

   Anthony immediately remembered something, and he continued.

"By the way, we may welcome some guests back in the future. Some less popular guests may come from Gallunaro, or from Inervig... Anyway, don’t obstruct them too much, they Maybe it's a friend...at least for the time being."

  After Anthony said all this, he threw away the half-burning cigarette in his hand. He walked onto the street, merged into the crowd, and soon disappeared.

Samuel, who remained in the shadows, seemed a little at a loss. He seemed to know some secrets that he shouldn't know, but the deputy of the crop Anthony, he knew all this, and seemed to take it for granted.

  It’s just that all of this happened so suddenly that it caught people off guard.

   "Holy... holy night."

Samuel couldn't help but mumbled this word again. After the reorganization of the Hunting Demon Order, all the information about the night of the Holy Promenade was strictly sealed, and few people knew it, even Samuel knew only a small part of it. That's it, but just such a corner is enough to bring great fear.

  He doesn’t know what will happen, but Samuel knows that perhaps in the near future, a huge disaster will befall this city.

   Samuel thought of this, and couldn't help but cast his gaze into the distance. From here, one could vaguely see the spires of Saint-Nallo Cathedral. They pierced the sky directly, and they hadn't changed for hundreds of years.

  At the core of all this, in the cold and gloomy still temple, the new pope guards here as always.

  He knelt and sat beside the well of sublimation, and what he wore was no longer a gorgeous and exquisite religious robe, but an armor cast from pieces of solid and bright sacred silver.

  Like the former Roger, the new pope at this moment is protected by the holy silver armor, and several nail swords are stored in front of him.

   "So are you successful?"

  The new pope whispered.

In Lorenzo’s plan, if Adren is not persuaded, but becomes an enemy, Watson will carry the [Final Echo] in the dark to carry out an ultra-distance [interval] invasion, and here, she will With the new pope as the hub, launch the final blow towards the well of sublimation.

  The new pope is very clear about the risks of all this, but after careful thinking, he calmly accepted, put down the crown of Holy Silver, and waited for himself to be invaded.

  But none of this happened, and there was also news from Old Dunling that the cleansing agency worked with the anonymous people to solve the two troublesome guys.

  Thinking of this, even the new pope could not help applauding them and admiring their achievements.

  【But is this really what you want? 】

  A soft female voice sounded in the ear, and there was a seductive lurking in the voice, as if it were the words spoken by the most beautiful woman in the world.

  【If all this is over, where should you go? 】

  'S voice was so clear that it easily passed through the cover of the Holy Silver and passed into the ear, while the new pope was expressionless, as if he hadn't heard it at all.

  【If the demon disappears, does your demon hunter still have any meaning? 】

  【Your foothold is not to protect humans, but humans’ fear of demons! Only the fear of demons, the demon hunters have a foothold in this world. 】

  【Without demons, the demon hunters will be meaningless. Everything you believe in is just a ridiculous lie, abandoned in the dust of history before the increasingly advanced technology. 】

  【Do you really want to let everything of this glory be cut off in your hands? 】

  【Is this really... what you want? 】

  The soft female voice gradually became violent, and in the end it turned into a sharp scream. In a trance, the new pope could see the dead souls of the past popes. They ranted their actions, but soon all this disappeared.

  The new pope stood up abruptly, drew the nail sword and slashed forward, and then the hot blood overflowed and spilled to the ground.

   "Shut up, monster."

The new pope watched the demon crawling out of the well. Under his sword, the broken corpse fell feebly into the darkness, but before falling, the demon tilted his head strangely and smiled at the new pope with an abominable smile. .

  【You won’t last long, I know. 】

Just like the summary at the end of the volume, although people are not so anxious, the rotten work and rest have not been corrected yet, which caused my mental state to be quite bad when I coded words, so there may be typos. Please take more Don't worry, I will revise it together after seeing it.
