Seventy-Two, the End
When the light that illuminated the world gradually dissipated, the night finally filled the surroundings again, but even so, under a trace of gunpowder smoke, the desolate ruins reflected silvery brilliance, and the whole land seemed a little cold.
"Where did you throw those people?"
Ghost Knife looked at the golden treasure box in Nine-Tailed's hands, and raised his chin with a little interest: "You still lack points."
On the ranking list at this time, the number one is still like a dream, and the second is Kyuubi.
And Jiang Rui ranked third.
Ghost Saber and Beichuan deliberately suppressed a lot of output, so the contribution ratio is not very high.
But even so, the two still occupy the corner of the list of fifth and sixth respectively.
Tick, tick.
While Ghost Knife was speaking, drops of rain quickly fell, purifying the dust in the air.
Jiang Rui raised his head in astonishment, looking at the bright moon——
"A clear sky with rain?"
"Could it be that in this world there is also a saying that the saints have fallen and mourned the world?"
Lowering his head amusedly, Jiang Rui shook his head and said, "I threw them away, and I'm not sure where they will be."
However, if the points are not enough, forget it first and take your time.
"It's actually the same."
Bei Chuan walked over with his arms crossed and said, "They will come back."
She glanced at Jiang Rui, who was silent.
"I will come back to collect the corpse of Kanzaki Kaori, or take revenge. If you want, you can stay here and wait for them..."
"alright."
Kyuubi interrupted Beichuan's dissatisfaction, and obediently walked to Jiang Rui's side, tugging at his sleeve.
"for you."
It was Kanzaki Kaori's treasure chest, exuding colorful streamers——
"What are you doing, it makes me feel very uncomfortable."
Jiang Rui twitched the corners of his mouth, and said helplessly, "I'm just wondering why Dreamlike is the number one, and it's really inexplicable that it's raining."
Bei Chuan pulled her wrist behind her, and a cobweb hammock appeared and she leaned on it: "If it's like a dream, I vaguely know how he got the points."
"Huh? You know?"
Ghost Knife was taken aback for a moment, not daring to say, "How would you know?!"
Bei Chuan gave him a blank look, didn't even bother to answer, and continued: "Do you know Brunhilde?"
Brunhilde Eckertbel...?
Characters in the New Testament...
Sure enough, the main reason why the bosses didn't come to Academy City was that they directly set their sights on the main battlefield of the New Testament, the magic association related to Norse mythology.
Compared with the small fights in Academy City, the income is naturally not as good as the stage of saints and demon gods.
but……
"He alone, shouldn't be able to deal with Brunhilde?"
Jiang Rui raised his eyes and guessed: "Or, did he find the weak cycle of the other party?"
Brunhilde, like Kanzaki Kaori, is one of the saints. Apart from being a saint, she is also a Valkyrie in Norse mythology.
But not only did she not become stronger with both powers at the same time, but she would have a period of weakening with a three-month cycle.
Wait, if you think about it this way, time seems to be enough...
Yes, the time they can stay in this world is exactly three months——
That is to say...
"That's right."
Seeing Jiang Rui's suddenly enlightened expression, Beichuan raised his legs gracefully, and explained: "Although he is Brunhilde's companion now, he will deal with magic associations such as "Overlord of the Sea" and "Golden Forging Hammer" with her. Scored a lot of points. "
"But I'm sure that his ultimate goal is to wait for Berenghild's ability to weaken... click."
Bei Chuan wiped his neck with his hands, and said with a wicked smile: "Betrayal or something, like a dream is good at it."
"..."
"Aren't you excited?"
Bei Chuan smiled lightly, and said slowly and seductively, "Berenhildr's spiritual outfit is the "Spear of the Lord God". "
Odin's Spear, a spiritual item that can manipulate weather and lightning...
Jiang Rui looked into each other's eyes,
Suddenly understood the meaning of the other party.
Indeed, Rumeng Sihuan is also a member of the coalition camp. If Kyuubi opens his mouth to get involved, he must give Kyuubi a face no matter what.
Although Kyuubi is stupid and not very interested, the key point is that she is obedient!
She listened to Jiang Rui!
Obviously, Bei Chuan has fully seen this point.
That's why she suddenly mentioned this -
"Did you... have you gone to him and been rejected?"
Ghost Knife lit a cigarette and asked amusedly.
"yes."
Bei Chuan rolled his eyes, didn't hide it, and directly retorted: "Otherwise, who would come to cooperate with you? Waste."
"..."
Jiang Rui scratched his head with a headache: "Let's talk about it, the main thing is to watch Nine Tails..."
"What else do you say?"
Kyuubi blinked, she had never heard of this name, after all, the information she added was only the first part of the magic ban.
"I'll explain to you slowly when I go back."
"oh."
Kyuubi nodded, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "Can you open the treasure chest?"
"Forget it, my hand is black, you can open it."
The phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly, Jiang Rui responded casually, took out the phone absently, and glanced at it.
Aleister...
There is no end!
However, if you have to participate in world missions anyway in the later stage, if you can do it smoothly, it seems that it is okay to mix in the plot of scoring points on the dreamy side.
Well, this is part of Beichuan's recognition of himself.
Of course he understood the other party's small calculations. When the combat meeting started, she didn't mention it. Apart from not knowing that Kyuubi had such a good relationship with him, another reason was that she never thought that her combat power could match Get on them without holding back.
It’s just that I might feel wronged by Rumengsihuan, the head of Dream Garden... I guess Ghost Saber’s relationship is not very good, because Jiang Rui noticed that when Beichuan wanted to be disgusted by Rumengsihan, Ghost Dao But the smile was quite gloating, and he didn't even reply when Bei Chuan called him a waste!
After walking aside, he decisively answered the phone——
"Hello!"
"it's over?"
"Ah, I don't know how to read it." Jiang Rui raised his head and looked at the sky full of stars. At a height of several hundred meters, dense loops of stagnant loops are constantly flowing——
"This rain is not your fault, is it?"
"No." Aleister was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "This is the first time a saint has died."
"..." Jiang Rui was taken aback for a moment: "No way... Haven't saints died in battle since ancient times?"
After a long silence, Jiang Rui's tone gradually weakened, and he said resentfully: "Then you are really weak..."
"The next task has been sent to your mobile phone." Aleister changed the subject and said, "And ask your team to clean up the eighteenth school district, and clean up all witnesses."
"?"
Jiang Rui raised his eyebrows and disagreed: "Isn't it too ruthless? This time the momentum is too big..."
"Your battles have already killed thousands of people, not bad for that."
Aleister said lightly, Jiang Rui wanted to refute, but after he glanced at the ruins and collapsed high-rise buildings everywhere, as well as some residual broken arms, he decisively closed his mouth.
"It's not time for the magic to be exposed."
After a long time, Aleister still gave Jiang Rui a face, explained something and hung up the phone directly.
Clean up?
Jiang Rui glanced at the entire eighteenth school district and sighed. Fortunately, this is not a densely populated area.
Forget it, let Frenda and Kinuhata love them the most, they seem to be quite free anyway.
Killing ordinary people is not suitable for him. He may accidentally step on ants to death sometimes, but it is a bit boring to clean them up.
"King of Hunting Witches", an S-level magic formula, the type is a skill.
"Crimson Cross", B-level magic formula, skill.
"Splitting God Stigmata", a stigmata containing power, the type is equipment.
"Amakusa-style cross desolation art collection", a skill book that needs to be learned.
"Swordsmanship seven days and seven swords", Jiang Rui took a look at it, it seems that it contains a lot of techniques for drawing swords and cutting, as well as a few small skills, that is, flashes and the like, a book that can be poured directly It can also be said that it is the most valuable thing besides the stigmata.
In addition, there are two sequences, namely the Christian believer and the flame magician.
Two sequences of 6 levels of sequence.
Kyuubi chose first, and then she gave Jiang Rui the right to choose.
Jiang Rui was also polite, the power of the stigmata perfectly matched Jiang Rui's heroic ability, why not, and then he chose the sword technique himself, so the most embarrassing thing came, that is, the most valuable things were all taken away by Jiang Rui If you take it away, the remaining messy combat power items will naturally belong to the other two.
So Jiang Rui silently glanced at the Qitianqidao in Ghost Saber's hand, and looked helplessly at the saber technique in his hand...
This saber technique seems to be matched with the Seven Heavens and Seven Sabers...
"If you need this knife, take it."
Ghost Knife glanced at Jiang Rui funny, picked up a cigarette and lit it, and said: "Although it is considered a legendary weapon, it is useless. Without your sword skills, it is not worth much."
"..."
Jiang Rui looked at the saber technique in his hand in confusion, this is a proper peddling of favors...
If I really want to accept it, I will probably be tied to Zhenshanhe in the future, after all, he is not a white-eyed wolf...
"It's not necessary, anyway, you won't give up breaking this artifact because of this kind of sword drawing."
That being said...
Jiang Rui is still very tangled, as the saying goes, you can know what shit he's shitting when you lift his butt.
The great sage naturally understood why Jiang Rui was entangled.
"Isn't it because the sword-drawing technique is so handsome? I can help you improve this sword technique and make it more suitable for you and your sword, okay?"
Eh?
Are you so hung up?
As his thinking accelerated, Jiang Rui expressed doubts about the words of the great sage.
"I can't do anything else, but after I finish analyzing the 103,000 grimoires, I believe this is not a problem, not to mention that your sword skills and grimoires come from the same source."
Eh? ! It seems to be oh.
Jiang Rui's eyes lit up, he quickly shook his head and said to Ghost Dao, "No, if you really don't want this knife, just leave it there, I think they will come back to get it."
"..." Ghost Knife was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that Jiang Rui was referring to the followers of Kanzaki Kaori.
"Is it the Amakusa-style cross desolate religion?"
"Well, I think they always need something left by the first pope, right?" Jiang Rui nodded and looked into the distance. "Isn't that the case? There always needs something as a spiritual sustenance and inheritance."
"I think you are more cruel like this."
Bei Chuan said from the side: "The so-called murder and punishment, returning them will only make them collapse even more?"
"The more important thing is that I have expressed it to Kanzaki."
When he handed the sword to Shenzhe, he said that it was respect for her, which meant that he would not touch her sword, and he agreed to let Shenzhe and her partner go on the road together for seven days and seven swords.
Jiang Rui said seriously: "Although we didn't take it to heart, and I don't need to fulfill it, but since it can be done smoothly...it's better to abide by the agreement?"
"Tsk, this is hypocrisy and hypocrisy."
Beichuan chuckled disdainfully.
"Can I? I can buy it."
Jiang Rui looked at Ghost Knife and scratched his head in embarrassment: "But the money must be owed first..."
"haha of course."
Ghost Knife threw the long knife in his hand casually, and still gave it to Jiang Rui: "You can deal with it whatever you want, I told you to send it to you."
"How much." Nine tails raised his head, took the responsibility of supporting Jiang Rui very dutifully, and said directly: "I can give it to you first."
"Tsk."
Ghost Knife shook his head with a smile, surrounded by smoke, Vicissitudes said: "No, no, I've done this before."
"Anyway, he can be regarded as his own junior."
He glanced at Bei Chuan triumphantly, not forgetting to disgust her and said: "Our town of Shanhe is not as ruthless as some black-hearted forces."
"Crack." A cross popped out on Beichuan's forehead...
"Aren't you two tired of bickering every day?"
Jiang Rui covered his head in distress, and seriously inserted the Qitian Qidao straight into a slightly raised high ground, which can be regarded as a monument for Shenzhe Huori.
Then he turned his head and said, "Where are you going to go next? Why don't you stay in Academy City? I can introduce you to Aleister. Anyway, you won't be able to go back to England, right?"
"I heard from Aleister that this is the first saint to fall in history. Puritanism probably won't let you go."
A saint is not a name for the strong in the world, but a religion, a system unique to the teachings of the cross.
Just like the Nordic mythology mentioned above is the Valkyrie, the Eastern mythology may be Arhat or the like.
But in any case, the fall of a saint, whether it is Russian Christianity, British Puritanism, or Roman Catholicism, as long as it is Christianity, that is, for believers who believe in God, it is no different from killing their own mother .
"Who said we can't go back?"
Ghost Knife pinched the end of his cigarette, took a puff comfortably and said, "We only betrayed Puritanism, but we didn't betray England."
"ha?"
Jiang Rui narrowed his eyes, and he clearly sensed the meaning of the other party's words.
"You mean, this operation also involved the royal faction?"
"To be precise, it's the Cavaliers."
Ghost Knife performed a knight salute very chicly, then took out a medal, and proudly said: "Please allow me to introduce myself, I am the guardian knight of Princess Kailisa, who belongs to the third Holy Glory Knights—— "
"To put it bluntly, it is a double agent of the Royal Faction and the Cavalier Faction, and then guide the two parties to cooperate to deal with the Puritan Faction first."
Bei Chuan was very rude, and finally let out a yell: "Scum!"
"..."
Okay, Jiang Rui sighed, it seems that everyone is very good.
No matter who it is, they are all at ease, but I always feel like I will end up looking like a 25-year-old boy...
