When Dunn opened the urn of Saint Selina, Megoose felt a fatal threat. She glared at Dunn and shouted:

"You're going to kill my child!"

"You must die!"

boom! Dunn was thrown away by an invisible force and hit the opposite wall hard, causing the wall to crack and bricks to fly. He only felt an astonishing sharp pain in his chest and back, and his thoughts were stagnated for a moment. Blood spurted out from his nose and mouth, but his strong willpower allowed him to hold on to Saint Selena's hand tightly. The urn let the cold, black silk threads tighten around Megoose's body, tightly binding her in place.

After ten seconds, Klein and Leonard rushed out of the partition at the same time. One held a warm, thin piece of gold in his hand, and the other had the "Vessel Thief" wrapped around his left wrist and opened it at Megoos. five fingers. Melgoose suddenly sensed the danger and opened her mouth wide. At the same time, Leonard's five fingers on his left hand suddenly closed together and his wrist rotated half a circle.

Megoose didn't make any sound - Leonard used "Vein Thief" to steal her profanity ability!

Klein seized this opportunity, spoke in a low voice, and spit out an ancient Hermetic word: "Light!"

The thin gold talisman in his hand suddenly became hot. Klein poured most of his spirituality into it without thinking. The talisman instantly burst into dazzling golden light, as if it had turned into the sun in his hand! Then, he threw a spell at Megoos who was struggling hard after sensing the danger!

The reception hall instantly became bright, and the darkness and gloominess disappeared.

Klein and Leonard's pupils shrank suddenly.

The talisman was completely released, and the power of light reflected the sun in the sky. However, the light was bounced away, and the talisman was knocked out by something before it was fully erupted, and was released on the side of Megoose. Not only was there no Destroying this terrifying matrix only burned out the threads that imprisoned her.

They turned their heads in disbelief and saw that behind them, Dunn silently raised his revolver, with smoke rising from the muzzle.

Dunn hit the wall hard, and his vision suddenly became blurry. It was as if a pair of hands gently held Dunn's shoulders, raised his arms, and helped him get into a posture to draw a gun and shoot. The muzzle of the gun was pointed at the defenseless man who was being chased by Megoos. Klein.

"Shoot." A voice said in his ear, seducing him as gently as it reached his heart, "We agreed to kill them."

Yes, I want to kill Klein and Leonard because they prevented the "True Creator" from descending. Dunn thought naturally, aiming at Klein who was dodging in a panic, and the muzzle of the gun moved according to the position of his head.

At this moment, a cold breath came from the urn of Saint Selina in his hand, like a basin of cold water falling from the sky and dousing him completely. Dunn suddenly remembered everything. His hair stood on end, and his whole body was instantly soaked in cold sweat. Nightmare's trembling hands widened his eyes, and a sealed memory suddenly appeared in his mind: that night he mistakenly entered the other party's dream, gained knowledge from the other party's hands, and then irresistibly established a deal, and the content of the deal was ——

"From now on, you are my eyes and ears within the Nighthawks." The demon said to him, "If anyone prevents the gods from coming, kill them."

"No……"

"Kill them."

The gentle voice sounded in my ears again. Due to the ruins and partitions, the sight of the two team members could not penetrate the wall. Naturally, they could not notice that their captain was sweating profusely and with a distorted face, pointing the muzzle of his gun at their temples and backs of their heads, holding the trigger finger. Dunn's frightened eyes tightened every moment, his resistance was meaningless.

"Don't even think about it...!!!"

"No, I will never...will hurt my...team members!!"

At this time, Klein threw the spell and shouted: "Light!"

boom!

When the light bloomed, Dunn found that the person controlling his body with words paused for a moment. He used all his strength to deflect the muzzle of the gun by half a minute, and his finger completely pulled the trigger at this moment. The talisman was shot away by the bullet, and the beam of light as bright as the sun did not hit the enemy. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he immediately retracted his hand, pointed the muzzle of the gun at his temple in the doubtful eyes of the team members, and pulled the trigger fiercely!

"team leader!"

"Captain what are you doing?!"

He heard the concerned and nervous questions from the team members, but his throat could no longer make a sound. There was no sharp pain in my temple, but the gun actually misfired! He was not dead, but the surroundings suddenly became dark and extremely quiet. The hands held Dunn's cheeks, forcing him to look up.

——He met a pair of pure black eyes.

"You broke our deal."

"Your soul belongs to me."

The demon whispered malicious words in his ear, grabbed Dunn's shoulders with both hands, and gently lifted him up - this action seemed to help him straighten his wrinkled clothes, but in fact, it moved the entire spirit body It was as easy as taking off a piece of clothing, and it was completely ripped out of the body. Dunn suddenly felt that his body became extremely light, and the deep darkness was extremely friendly. A smile of relief remained on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were closed. He slowly sank into a dark and sweet dream, and invisible forces formed a glass-like object around his spirit body, wrapping him in it.

Fortunately, I didn't... hurt my companions...

...Leonard, Klein...leave...quickly...run...

The glass bottle slipped into the darkness and landed lightly in someone's hand. He looked at the new collection for two seconds and then placed it on the table.

"Your resistance is meaningless, and there is no room for the devil's bargain."

Edward Vaughan spoke straightforwardly and said to himself: "Breaking the deal, the soul will belong to me; committing suicide is equivalent to giving up, and giving up is a violation; but even if you kill your companion to complete the deal, the behavior and guilt that goes against your original intention will make you feel guilty." You fell, but your soul still belongs to me. - From the moment the deal was made, your soul was already mine.”

"It still has a glorious soul...but, at that moment just now, did the Eternal Blazing Sun glance here?"

"That's the secret? It seems I have to change my strategy..."

51

Dunn did not pull the trigger. He pressed the barrel of the gun against his temple for several seconds before his eyes finally regained their light.

"...I was influenced by the descendants of the evil god." He gasped, and the blood spilled from the corner of his mouth dripped into the urn. Megoose, who started to struggle because of his trance just now, was once again tightened and unable to move.

"Do you still have the talisman just now? I'll control her, do it quickly!"

Klein hesitated for a moment. The captain's state did seem wrong, but it was indeed difficult for anyone to remain completely normal when faced with the influence of the evil god's descendants. His spiritual intuition gave no warning, and the current critical situation did not allow him to hesitate. Fortunately, he had two Yangyan Talismans on hand. He subconsciously followed Dunn's serious words, took out another Sun Flame Talisman from his pocket, infused it with spirituality, and the majestic ancient Hermes language burst out from the tip of his tongue. He raised his arm and was about to move towards Megoos. Throw it over!

"Don't believe him!" came an old voice, "Run!"

"Klein!" The Midnight Poet suddenly burst out with a roar. He rushed up three steps at a time, and knocked Klein aside who was about to throw the spell. He also lost his balance and fell due to the inertia. On the ground, the two rolled into a ball and slid two or three meters away. The fortune teller's foul words suddenly stuck on his lips. He saw with his own eyes that all the thin threads on Megoose's body disappeared at the same time. She rushed directly to their sides at a ghostly speed, and narrowly missed Lun. Nader's toes. ——It is conceivable that if Klein had stood where he was just now, he would have been torn into pieces by Megaos, who had regained his freedom, dodging the spell!

Megoose's arm split into sharp bone knives, and her fingers completely mutated into claws that could tear people apart. She landed where Klein was standing just now, leaving scratches several centimeters deep on the ground. ! Klein instantly felt like he was dead. He immediately threw the Sun Flame Talisman in his hand without thinking. This time, the golden beam of light finally erupted at the right position, covering Megoose who had not had time to move!

Taking this opportunity, Klein and Leonard moved a few steps further on their hands and knees. Megoose turned into a huge ball of fire, rolling crazily on the ground and letting out shrill screams. The scorching wind and light hit their faces, and the sudden increase in temperature dispelled some of the fear in their hearts.

"How did you know to push me away?"

"Intuition, it's intuition! My intuition is accurate!" Leonard maintained his balance and regained his footing, and pulled Klein up. He had just acted based on passion and instinct, but now he really felt scared.

Leonard rubbed his arms and just breathed a sigh of relief when he immediately heard the old voice in his mind. This old voice was more serious than ever before. He felt as if he was struck by lightning and froze in place: "Leave! Stay away from him - stay away from Him! Pray to the goddess of the night! Pray! Hurry!!"

"Dunn" let go of his hand, and Saint Selina's urn rolled to the ground. The golden flames on Megoose's body gradually extinguished, and apart from the high swollen belly, there was no trace of human characteristics on its body. The resentful emotions of the evil god's offspring who had been prevented from being born were unabashedly directed at the two Nighthawks present. Klein and Leonard felt chills running down their spines at the same time, and they chanted the goddess's honorable name in their hearts at the same time.

"You're not mature yet. He's too impatient." "Dunn" fiddled with the urn on the ground with his toes. He looked at the two nighthawks present as if they were nothing. He admired the bustling town outside through the gap in the wall and was satisfied. He nodded, "Let me help you."

"Dunn" raised one hand, palm upward, and clenched it tightly.

——

It was a peaceful day, but from this moment on, the illusion of tranquility suddenly shattered. The reason may be that the thief who was escaping on the street pulled out his gun in a panic. The bullet entered a police officer's eye socket, flying off his hat and half of his skull. Blood spattered on the gentlemen and ladies passing by. It may also be because a noble gentleman suddenly coughed violently at his banquet, vomited out bright red blood clots, and then fell into it and died. His bodyguards kept the guests inside in order to maintain order. The falling chandelier and gunfire from the street ignited people's suppressed panic. Or maybe it was a sparse and ordinary group fight in the lower streets that finally went too far. The gangster's dagger sliced ​​the neck of a thin homeless man, and blood and fear broke out together.

Everything was ignited and induced to explode naturally.

Screams were heard one after another, fear and chaos were like a wandering plague, and people were fleeing and crying aimlessly on the road. The police officers who maintained order were struck down by gunfire and death first. Their bodies lay in a pool of blood on the street. The horrific death scenes only aggravated people's panic and fear.

"Bang!" It seemed that the gas leaked somewhere and then exploded. Bright yellow flames instantly rose from the corner of the lower street. The simple shacks made of dirty cloth connected together became the best path for the flames to spread. As expected, the two Within minutes, the flames would engulf half of the block, and then the wind would advance all the way, covering the entire lower street!

The coachman was thrown off the seat by the frantic horse, and the carriage was smashed against the wall by the out-of-control horse.

Screams, wind, crying, prayers, and the sound of burning flames engulfed the city. It was full of people and extremely lively, like a grand tide. In the blink of an eye, half of Tingen was plunged into blood and chaos. People who wanted to survive returned home and rushed to the church. Crowding and stampedes took the death toll to another level.

Of course, the real reason may just be because two streets away, the "Angel of the Abyss" clapped his hands, and the half-expanded deep black world flashed away from the spiritual world and merged with the ground of Tingen. The city was silently separated from the real world, the sun became dim, and everyone walked unconsciously on the black plain of the abyss. He watched all this and then calmly uttered a single obscene word.

"confusion"

52

In the center of the storm that decided Tingen's fate, there was peace, even to the point of death, in the Nighthawk building. Klein maintained a retreating and evasive posture, seemingly stationary, but in fact he could find that his lips and body were moving at an extremely slow speed. The baby in Melgoose's belly happily digested the negative emotions caused by the chaos. Leonard's feet were stepping on a half-black and half-white clock with shadows on it. The second hand seemed to be welded to the dial. One second The clock was stretched to its limit.

At the time of crisis, Pales further squeezed out his remaining strength like a sponge, barely able to immobilize Megoos and the undeveloped children of the evil god who were focused on absorbing nutrients, and pulled Leonard and Crane was saved from the blade of death.

"You are not Amon, and you actually still have a living Worm of Time?" The demon turned around and looked at Leonard with interest. "You are more valuable than "Nightmare". I didn't expect Tingen to have something hidden." Sequence one. "

Leonard gritted his teeth.

Such a strange expression on Dunn's face made Leonard's fear even deeper. In this almost static world, something wearing the captain's skin came closer step by step, with the usual deep gray eyes. His eyes were filled with malicious joy: "You may need help. I can help you escape from Amon's pursuit, and I can also help you catch the lone Amon as a snack. You hate and fear him, right? Goddess of the Night Before his gaze fell, the Eternal Blazing Sun also withdrew its sight. Staying here will only bury the city and the god who is about to be born."

"The emperor you once served is his ally, isn't he? We can actually cooperate..."

What? ! Leonard was horrified after hearing the secret knowledge, and his fear and rejection of the mysterious person parasitic on him was instantly amplified to the extreme - isn't the coming god the "True Creator"? ! The old man's allegiance was once his ally, so wouldn't the old man be the companion of "him" in front of him, the Nighthawks and even the enemy of the Seven Gods? ! Then he would have become the culprit who lured the wolf into the house. All the struggles and efforts were just a good show in the eyes of the old man - Leonard suddenly felt filled with regret and touched the gun bag with one hand, thinking of committing suicide and atonement.

"Don't think so wildly!" Pales growled. This sound was like thunder, interrupting Leonard's guilt and self-blame, "Use your brain! Didn't you realize that He told you this news on purpose?! He omitted the key parts in order to provoke us and guide us. You have fallen, otherwise He could have told you in more detail and made you blow your head off on the spot!”

"You seem to know the devil very well. I'm beginning to believe that we have indeed cooperated." "Dunn" smiled.

"Who are you?!" Leonard finally found the opportunity to speak, "What did you do to the captain!"

"Dunn" looked at him and spoke in a gentle voice: "..."

Leonard heard nothing.

"You bastard, are you crazy? Don't ask Him!" Pales was exhausted and stole Leonard's hearing. "Don't listen, don't look. As long as you actively or voluntarily get anything from Him, He will I can make a "deal" with you, or even make a "contract" with you! ! "

"The tragedy you saw in the book of the church school during the Russell period was caused by this. A little girl exchanged one of her candies for Him for the lives of the entire city! Your captain must have also been inadvertent. No matter what you get from Him, you will pay the price of your soul!"

Paying the price of his soul... Leonard's face turned pale.

"I think that was a win-win-win deal?" The devil smiled, "My friend won, I completed part of the ritual and got candy, and the little girl got the life of my enemy. Isn't that great? "

When this second was about to end, when Pales was powerless and death was about to come, Edward Vaughn suddenly had a strange feeling. He raised his head and saw a hint of red mixed into the edge of the pale sun in the sky. The red slowly swallowed up the temperatureless sun in the abyss inch by inch. At some point, stars appeared in the black sky. Stars spread from the corners of the sky, as if a black curtain had been lifted and replaced by a layer of night sky.

"The goddess of night, nobler than the starry sky and longer than eternity."

"You are the Mother of Secrets, the Crimson Lord"

"Queen of disaster and fear, lord of silence and sleep..."

The power of tranquility fell from the sky, and "Dunn" moved his eyes away from Leonard and looked at the fortune teller in the corner. He heard the soothsayer speaking with difficulty, reciting the name of the goddess of the night over and over again at a normal speed in this slowed-down world.

My abyss has been invaded, He thought, I am only an angel after all.

"I pray for your gaze, I pray for your presence."

"The son of the evil god is born, and I pray to you to save this city."

He actually came. People with secrets are really troublesome... The Angel of the Abyss smiled and shook his head, and the crimson moonlight enveloped the entire city.
