Zongman: Beginning with the Killer Queen

The wind blew loudly, like the first cry of a newborn baby.

The sound was loud and noisy, as if it was going to melt everything.

Whether it was the stars, the trees, or the church, it was as if it was about to melt.

This could no longer be said to be a change in the situation. It was more appropriate to say that the world itself had begun to change.

Shadows that repeatedly chanted chilling words emerged from the gap between the earth and the sky, and a black sandstorm covered everything in sight.

——Everything in the world was surrounded by the breath of ‘death’.

This was the only thought that Altruci had when she saw the scenery expanding in front of her.

As the heir of the Moon King and the princess of the Dead Apostle, the girl who had always been proud of this could still maintain a humble attitude in negotiations with the living saint who could easily subdue the primate killer.

But now, there was only deep uneasiness in her heart.

To most of the life in the world, she is an absolute monster, but when she encounters a more terrifying existence that deliberately and easily removes this halo, she will still show emotions similar to humans.

Behind Roland, the dark shadow has become as tall as the surrounding trees. Although it can be seen that the other party is trying to imitate the human shape as much as possible, the final performance is still just a human-shaped mass.

"Disaster..."

Alterluqi muttered to herself, and the ethereal voice could no longer hear the previous firm determination, only coldness.

However, this is also natural.

Although she is the princess of the Dead Apostles, Hei Ji is essentially a hybrid of the True Ancestor and the Dead Apostles. From the other half of the blood, she also inherited the unreasonable intuition that points to the essence of things.

Because of this, she can understand this.

Even if you can't feel any malice or hatred from this creeping darkness.

Even the fluctuation of magic power can't be detected.

But there is no doubt that the other party is a disaster.

The fear and terror that was resounding in the girl's chest were repeating this overwhelming fact.

——In the past, the wind of the Black Death it spewed took away 30 million lives.

——In the past, it took away 50 million lives in the name of Spanish flu.

But these plagues, these disasters, and these deaths are not worth mentioning to it.

According to a section of a prophecy, the other party will never be satisfied and will never stop until it takes away a quarter of the lives in the world.

But this achievement and the power symbolized behind it are secondary.

What is really shocking is the existence of this black shadow itself.

For the real strong, just one look can understand.

It is a system without any will, which is the extreme in the field.

It exists in ancient times and in the distant future.

Although it has a very high status, it can never be called a fantasy species or a god, or even something like uo.

If you have to give it a definition, there is only this answer.

——The embodiment of the principle of the world,

"The embodiment of death... As the bearer of the pale death among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Pale Knight?"

Altluci suddenly read out the real name of the black shadow.

Her lips trembled a little.

This was not because she witnessed an extraordinary miracle, but because of the despair that took root in her heart.

——Monsters that should not exist in the world and extraordinary monsters appeared one after another, completely crushing the pride of Heiji.

Altluci is not a timid person, on the contrary, her personality is quite radical and dangerous.

Because of this, in the ranking of the ancestors of the twenty-seven dead apostles, even though there are several powerful and unshakable characters, Heiji and her servants are still at the top.

But when she encounters Roland, whose actions and performances are completely out of touch with common sense, she still feels uneasy.

It's as if she is talking to a guy from another dimension.

Perhaps because of excessive despair, she instead feels angry.

"What a joke! Why would your servant be this guy!"

You know, although he is also a member of the Christian legend, he does exist in the world.

But there is no corresponding or similar historical figure to the level of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

And, unlike the doomsday disasters such as the beasts, although they are also disasters, they do not want to rebel or make trouble, but are just employees of God to carry out His will.

Therefore, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse exist as the concept of "the end device of the world". Unless the activation conditions are met, it is impossible to summon them even if you want to.

As a result, Roland did not use any rituals or media, and the other party appeared as soon as he said someone was coming.

Could this guy be the living son of God?

"I am also looking for the answer to this question."

Roland spread his hands innocently.

"I did plan to call a Doomsday Knight, but I didn't specify a target. The reason you drew the Pale Knight is probably because you were unlucky."

"Besides, is this the time to dwell on this issue?"

"You already know the name and details of my servant, and basic equality has been achieved. After all, there is no absolute fairness in the world."

Roland raised his head, with a playful smile on his lips.

"In other words... it's my turn now."

"As a reward for your kindness, I will give you one last piece of advice."

"--Run, Altluqi, run."

There was no need to remind her. When she realized that the round had changed, the red moonlight that had been waiting around Heiji merged into her body.

Her body grew up in the light at a speed visible to the naked eye, her figure became plump, and her originally immature and tender appearance became mature and charming.

In the blink of an eye, the petite girl turned into a noble and cold queen.

From Roland's perspective, it was just like the transformation of a magical girl.

Because Altluqi's clothes also grew with her body, and became more gorgeous and dazzling.

Considering the principle that pets follow their owners, it is hard to say that the primate killer on Tsukishima's side has grown fully, but the habit of deliberately maintaining the state of a juvenile has nothing to do with Altluqi.

After the second stage transformation, Hei Ji's figure had already shot out like a high-speed train, and plunged into the forest in front like a fish swimming into the sea.

When Roland looked up, the other party's figure was about to disappear in a corner of the forest.

"You run really fast, but unfortunately... this can't change anything."

Roland turned his head to look at the darkness standing beside him, smiled slightly, and responded with the same words as Arteluqi before.

"'Death', kill her!"

The next moment, a gust of north wind suddenly rolled up in the windless night. The dark death had no words, stepped on the wind, and poured down the mountain like water.

At the same time.

"......?!"

Arteluqi suddenly looked at the messy forest behind her, and the ferocious pupils like a beast could not hide the shock in her eyes.

In her perception, the suffocating death that was several kilometers away in the last second was like a thorn in the back in the next second.

But there was nothing behind her...

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, the girl directly inserted her slender jade feet into the ground, forcibly stopping her own momentum.

Then, she turned her head quickly without caring about her manners.

As expected, the black mist was already in the sky in front of her, circling around her front, like a falcon ready to pounce.

Even in the perfect state, Kurohime's movement speed was even faster than the fantasy species of the Age of Gods. The Pale Knight was not activated as a perfect world-destroying device, but appeared as a phenomenon similar to the Heroic Spirit, and could not reproduce the gray horse it rode in the myth.

But such an increase and decrease could not eliminate the absolute gap.

Riding EX.

The world often uses the ability to control dragons and fantasy species as a standard for judging whether a rider is excellent or not, but as an existence that brings destruction with this term, this is obviously not applicable to the Pale Knight.

Ride the wind, ride the water, ride the bird, ride the person.

Even if it was a city away, it would only take a moment for it.

The distance that Heiji had gained in advance was just a clever trick that it could catch up with by taking a big step.

It was too unreasonable.

It was completely out of the norm.

So far, Altluchi had experienced countless enemies, but she had never had such a frustrating moment.

Because she was not even qualified to fight with them.

Although he had superhuman thinking ability, the Pale Knight had no concept of self, and was just a natural disaster like a storm or an earthquake.

Even if he attacked the other party, it was just like drawing a knife to cut off water.

She could do it, and the only thing she could do was to run away.

This was a game where running to the city was the only way to win.

Although in the history of the Dead Apostles, the Holy Church had not lacked cases in which the Church of the Holy Church had used iron-blooded actions to implicate a city in the same situation, the Living Saint was not the scum that the Dead Apostles of the Burial Agency called heretics.

Roland should not sit idly by and watch other innocent people being hurt for his own willfulness...right?

As the girl ran and thought about this, her pupils suddenly shrank.

At the junction of the forest and the night sky, at the end of her sight, many animals stood there safely.

Wild dogs, deer, squirrels, wolves, and even a bear.

Regardless of carnivores or vegetarians, regardless of race or size, they stood together in harmony, just like a gathering of a large family of fairy tale animals.

The premise is... you have to ignore the black spots on their bodies and the inharmonious feeling like a puppet with its strings cut.

Although it behaves very much like the power of another colleague, Plague, this is actually just the basic ability of the Pale Knight.

When it appears as a heroic spirit, it uses its virus-shaped clone to infect other creatures, thereby dominating them and expanding its own domain.

In this way, it can not only absorb magic power, but also use such domination to fulfill the master's wishes.

For example, now.

Because Roland was expecting a one-on-one duel, before Altluchi escaped, the Pale Knight had already infected all the lives in the forest, controlling them to run to the edge of the forest to avoid being affected.

As for why only the lives in the forest were controlled, it certainly wasn't because the Pale Knight couldn't control more.

In the original book, although the lower limit has not been shown, it still showed the performance of blocking a city or controlling 120,000 people to act together at the same time.

The reason why it did this was because it was unnecessary.

——The night was being quietly eroded by darkness.

Although it was a bit strange to describe the night being eroded by darkness, it was undoubtedly true.

It was like the scene of a dilapidated dark roof when it rained.

Because it was soaked with raindrops, the original color of the roof was as deep as if it was dipped in ink.

The change slowly grew larger, spreading at a firm and continuous speed, and soon swallowed up the entire sky.

Altluchi, who witnessed the whole process, turned pale.

"Inherent barrier?"

This is just the ability to change the physical laws of the earth to be more in line with its own preferences, which is very similar to one of the supreme mysteries of the magic.

But the girl immediately denied this guess.

"No, it's different..."

Although the atmosphere has changed, the elements and environment of the surrounding land have not changed.

Because of the experience of fighting a certain mortal enemy, Hei Ji can realize that this is more like a direct interference in the world, just like the materialization of fantasy.

Although the two seem similar, they are actually very different.

To use an analogy, it is the difference between a barrier treasure and a barrier treasure.

The former is a change to the law. If the force is sufficient, it can be broken and restored, but the latter is a pseudo-space created on the basis of the real world.

There is no time or scale limit.

Even if a treasure like the Sword of Separation is used to fight, it can only serve as an alternative digging tool.

Therefore, after realizing that she was pulled in, Altluki gave up the idea of ​​forcibly breaking through.

She carefully observed the world around her.

The Pale Knight has no personality, and the changes in the barrier he created depend entirely on the image of the master.

But it seems that because his master is the living saint, this is not a typical heaven or hell, nor is it a space that shatters the soul with nothingness, but just a forest that is exactly the same as before.

But no matter what the image is, the foundation of the barrier itself will not change.

"He rides a gray horse, and the underworld follows him and gives him power..."

The girl murmured the motto in her memory, her eyes as cold as a blade.

Hades.

This is the nature of the world in the barrier that has been eroded by the other party, and it is the real thing.

If the preparation is proper, Ishtar's sister, the mistress of the Hades, can even appear.

In this space where only the dead can survive, the lives infected or killed by the Pale Knight will also reappear in the Hades, just like the ability of the spirit Akado that Roland once swallowed, called the River of Death.

Even if it is a treasure like the Pegasus summoned by Medusa, as long as the Pale Knight is willing, he can directly take away this treasure by eroding the spiritual base.

No matter how many means of resurrection are left, no matter what abilities they have, as long as they are not truly a complete resurrection that represents a miracle, they will fall into the sleep of death.

For the dead apostles, this is undoubtedly a natural enemy.

After all, in addition to strength, the powerful immortality is one of the important foundations for the dead apostles to disrupt human history.

This can be seen from the fact that after reaching the level of ancestors, even the professional counterparts of the Holy Church can only be forced to seal in many cases, rather than directly execute.

But in this underworld, such cheating is obviously not allowed to happen.

The thunder that replaced the sky and the shouts that were echoing were the best proof.

{I am a sword}{I am a beast}{I am thirsty}{I am hungry}

{I am the one who brings death}{I am the one who plays death}

{I am dead}{I am dead}

{die}{die}{die}

The words of the Pale Knight have begun to slash at Altuluchi's ears like a roar, and the sound is like the concentration of fear.

In those words without a trace of hatred, just to give the opponent death, without any emotion.

In front of the black fog that fell from the sky like a torrential rain.

The girl has never realized one thing so clearly

——People will die if they are killed. (End of this chapter)
