honor me as god

chapter 77
The ballistas in Dusk City are heavy city defense equipment. The bolts used are 4 meters long and as thick as the arms of strong men. They are specially used to hunt super-large creatures. One shot.

In the entire Dusk City, I am afraid that only this kind of heavy ordnance can deal with Wolf with super resilience.

The ballista is usually fixed on the city wall, and it is extremely cumbersome to disassemble. It is absolutely impossible for one person to disassemble it. Paladin rushed to the city wall with a dozen soldiers including Baisalugo.

On the way, Baiza asked in a loud voice, "Paladin, how are the civilians in the city? Are they all hiding?"

Paladin nodded: "Well, they all received the news and went home. The streets were basically emptied, and there were no casualties."

"It's good that there are no civilian casualties." Baiza breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Ge said cursingly: "Fortunately, we didn't go to that banquet, we were all on duty outside, otherwise we would have been blasted to ashes by visitors from outside the sky."

Baiza opened and closed his mouth, and quickly approached Paladin, looking a little hesitant, and said in a low voice: "Paladin"

Paladin realized that Baiza had something to say, but was concerned about the crowd.After all, Lu Ge is an outsider, and the other soldiers are also the former Twilight City forces. Unlike the two of them, they are comrades-in-arms who have served in Xilin Town together for more than ten years.

Palatine winked at Baiza, and the two moved away from the team.

Paladin walked ahead: "Speak."

Baiza frowned and asked, "What do you think of this banquet explosion?"

Paladin shook his head: "How can you see it? I have never seen such a big explosion. This is definitely not the alchemy of our world, it must be done by foreigners."

Baiza's eyes were erratic: "If the extraterrestrial visitor wants to blow up Kino, why is Kino okay, but the extraterrestrial visitor with the black knife has burns on his body?"

Paladin didn't look back. "And then?"

"Don't you think this is weird? When the explosion happened, Chino was not there, but in the safe area of ​​the square. Why was he there?!" Baiza's body began to tremble unconsciously, as if remembering something terrible , "The strange thing is more than this. After the explosion, everyone and Chino went to the ruins to search for survivors. All the people we found will die inexplicably, including Fick Troy, none of them survived!"

Paladin still didn't look back: "It's normal for such a big explosion to be seriously injured."

Baiza's face was so gloomy that it was like dripping water: "I have checked the injuries of a few people, they are definitely not fatal injuries, there is absolutely room for rescue, and they will not die on the spot, but they just died suddenly! Do you understand what I mean? ?! Someone killed them in some unseen way! And what were they talking about before they died. Grim Reaper"

Seeing that Paladin didn't speak, Baiza continued: "I have noticed that when they say 'Death', they are all looking at Chino, you don't think all this."

"Shut up!" Paladin finally turned his head and slammed into Baiza. With the torch, he could clearly see that Paladin's face was pale, not even a trace of blood on his lips, and his forehead was full of beads of sweat.

Paladin grabbed Baixa's arm and pulled him farther away, his eyes terrified like a prey evading a wild beast: "Do you think I'm a fool? I found out that Chino was wrong before all of you, and it was from the seizure of Mir. When the salt crystal of the Luoshang team started, I felt that he was abnormal!"

"That kind of cold and efficient thinking, the killing skills that are invisible to the naked eye, the very deep way of speaking, so many moon coins of unknown origin, the extraordinary power that appeared on him inexplicably, and the visitors from heaven, 2700 people have already disappeared. Years, but suddenly appeared frequently recently, and they all aimed the attack direction at Chino, do you think I haven't thought about this?!"

"Let me tell you bluntly, that person is not Kino van Helsing at all! The old piece of wood has been ripped off long ago! It just keeps its original appearance, but there is actually another person inside!"

Baiza's face turned pale in an instant: "You mean that the explosion of the government mansion was really planned by him, and the survivors were also killed by him, the purpose was to cover up."

Paladin slammed into Baixa's mouth to stop him from continuing, his voice was cold: "Listen, I don't care what you see or what you think, I want you to hide it in your belly, just treat it as Never noticed! Never ever tell anyone these things, don't tell Lugo, don't tell me, don't ask Kino!"

Baiza subconsciously pushed away Palatine's hand, clenched his teeth tightly, and his voice trembled: "But so many innocent people have died. They obviously did nothing wrong. I can't turn a blind eye to this cruel thing!"

"Brother, I know you are a person with a very sense of justice, but you listen to my advice and live wisely. Your ideal is to punish evil and promote good, that's fine, but you can only do this when you are alive, and you can do anything when you die. No, understand?" Palatine subconsciously glanced in the direction of the government mansion, and asked in a deep voice, "Besides, did Chino treat you badly?"

Baiza was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "He is very good to me and I am able to have my present status because of his gift."

Paladin slapped Baiza hard on the head, as if to wake him up: "That's not right?! It's time to eat, drink, and don't care about the things that shouldn't be in charge. If you want me to say, we The smartest of the bunch is Lugo, the heartless, simple-minded loyal dog that Kino likes most."

Baiza clenched his fists: "But the innocents who died."

"What can you do?" Palatine interrupted him directly. "Are you stronger than Chino and can beat him with one punch? Or are you higher in status and more powerful than him?"

Baiza was speechless.

Paladin looked at him solemnly: "Baiza, you must remember that Chino brought us out of Shilling, which was an opportunity and a kind of imprisonment. He changed our humble origins, but at the same time , our destiny is also bound to him."

"He is supported by his superiors, and you and I will follow along with us. If he falls, you and I, as his confidants, will definitely be implicated and liquidated! So we and him can only share honor and disgrace, advance and retreat together, and there is no second place. a choice.”

Baiza was silent, the complex look in his eyes slowly disappeared, not so much disappearing, but hiding, whether it will reappear in the future, it is unknown.

Paladin exhorted: "Listen, this is the end of the topic. If someone comes to investigate this matter in the future, no matter who asks you, you will bite to death - the banquet explosion was done by an extraterrestrial guest, and Kino has nothing to do with it. It doesn't matter, we've tried our best to rescue, but we haven't been able to save anyone."

Baiza closed his eyes and nodded silently.

Suddenly, he realized something: "Wait. In Chino's plan, this banquet can't have survivors, then"

"Well" Paladin's eyes became gloomy and terrifying, "that's why I have to use the ballista."
