Chapter 649: Flower of Blood and Bone: Hunting the Sword Bearer IV
"Home is a name, a word, and it is a powerful word; more powerful than any words ever spoken by a magician, more powerful than any voice the soul has ever answered in its strongest spell - a home is not only a physical habitat, but also a spiritual home; a room of one's own is a symbol of independence and freedom."

"Fourteen Inscriptions of Incarnation: Cave Dweller"

**********
味味味味——

The speed of the monorail train at this moment has exceeded the speed of a normal train, and the rapid friction sound between the train pulleys and the tracks is becoming more and more harsh.

The car was shaking violently, and the window glass made a slight buzzing sound due to the vibration.

The armrests on the seats also shook continuously, as if the entire train might derail at any time.

Amidst the violent shaking, Xia Xiu sat on the chair as steady as a rock, his golden eyes flashing with a cold light.

The lights in the carriage flickered, illuminating his handsome face.

The shadow under his feet spread across the ground as if it had life.

A strange dark power surges from the depths of the shadows, and the undead army roars and screams in the gloomy world.

The blurry figures emerging from the shadows struggled one after another to break free from the shackles of darkness.

An angled stalker, twisted in shape, covered in scales and spikes, eyes that gleam with a cruel light.

They squirmed in the shadows, growling deeply, ready to fight for their king at any time and in any place.

As the train shook violently and rubbed, the shadows of the undead army continued to spread on the ground, trying to devour the entire carriage.

Opposing the angled stalker is the one in the black wedding dress, who has now stood up.

The hem of the black wedding dress is particularly eye-catching as it sways. The lace skirt, the off-shoulder top decorated with thorns and roses, the gloves and the blended silk veil all look simple and mysterious.

Her red hair shone like flames in the light.

The fourth sword-wielding man in Heaven had an indifferent expression, and his golden eyes stared at the other party coldly and sharply.

The blond young man had a kingly arrogance on his face, as if he was looking at a moth trying to set itself on fire.

He raised his chin slightly and said in an unquestionable tone:

"name."

The one in the black wedding dress lifted the hem of her skirt slightly and bowed to the fourth sword-bearing man in the Kingdom of Heaven.

This is an ancient court etiquette that shows the highest respect and deference.

She held the corner of her skirt with her left hand and lifted it slightly so that the skirt rubbed lightly on the ground, while her right hand hung lightly in front of her chest.

She lowered her head, leaned forward slightly, and gave a respectful smile.

"Eleanor Blackwood has met the Fourth Swordbearer," she replied respectfully, with an ancient and solemn cadence in her voice.

There was a hint of awe and complex emotions in her eyes.

After bowing and standing up, Eleanor straightened up, looked at Xia Xiu with a firm gaze, and added: "The element I am responsible for in the Fourteenth Incarnation is marriage. You can also call me the judge of human union."

"Just you?" Xia Xiu sneered.

"Yes, that's me." The woman who claimed to be the judge nodded firmly.

"Do you know what you are doing?" Xia Xiu asked.

"We are trying to hunt you." The black wedding dress person's tone was still as respectful as always. "Today, either you will decapitate us here, or we will succeed in this act of destroying the heavens."

"There is only life and death, no victory or defeat." Eleanor replied with unusual solemnity.

"It's really interesting~" Xia Xiu was obviously amused, and the smile on his face became more intense.

"Not all awakened people in the Inner Temple are fools. To be honest, if it were a different place, a different crime, and if there was no extermination order, I would be happy to send you to the witch shelter in the central holding room to be a D-class personnel for life. Unfortunately..."

He shrugged, with a hint of regret in his tone, as if he was regretting the loss of an interesting game.

"There's nothing to regret. We are doing this just for all mankind on Terra." The one in the black wedding dress comforted the man with the sword.

"You are really interesting. For all mankind on Terra?" Xia Xiu was even happier, with a hint of teasing and amusement in his eyes. "That can't be helped. Since it is for all mankind."

As the sword-wielder spoke, the atmosphere in the carriage became more tense, and his hands tapped lightly on his cane, making a crisp sound.

ding~~~
The air in the car seemed to be frozen, and the pictures around were still changing, showing the gloom and weirdness of the Gothic style.

The gloomy sky, the ground covered with dust, fallen leaves and petals, the shabby furniture and scenery, everything reveals a depressing and weird atmosphere.

The scenes in those photos seemed to come alive, and the weirdness moved in the photos, as if ready to rush out at any time.

"Roar------"

The Angle Stalker was the first to break free from the restraints and rushed towards the one in the black wedding dress with a roar.

The hunters have ferocious appearances, covered with black scales, sharp teeth and claws, like vicious dogs from hell.

There was a fierce light in their eyes, as if they wanted to tear everything in front of them to pieces.

At this moment, an incarnation appeared behind Eleanor. Just like the previous incarnations, the deeds of their incarnations either did not belong to the deeds of Terra or were extinct existences in folklore.

This is the incarnation of Tania, a saint from a now extinct village who protected marriage and family harmony.

[Tanya] wore a classical-style robe made of soft white and light gold fabric. The delicate lace decorations and exquisite embroidery patterns revealed her noble and elegant temperament.

There was a gleam of wisdom in her eyes, and in her hand she held an ancient staff, on the top of which was inlaid a gem that emitted a faint glow.

As the hunter army rushed towards them, a huge red shield suddenly emerged from Tanya's staff, protecting Eleanor firmly.

The shield flashed red light, like an indestructible barrier, blocking the hunters' attacks.

The hunters' claws and fangs hit the shield, making a harsh sound, but they could not shake this solid barrier.

At the same time, the surrounding Gothic-style gloom and weird monsters rushed out of the photo and rushed towards the sword-wielding man.

These monsters have different shapes, and each one exudes a terrifying evil aura.

First, a monster jumped out of the photo. Its body seemed to be made up of countless arms, each of which was stretched out, like a spider with many claws.

Its head was shrouded in darkness, with only a pair of blood-red eyes flickering in the darkness.

This is the monster in the background of the photo, alienated by economic crimes or kleptomania, with more than twenty multiple hands or front paws twisting constantly, as if trying to grab everything within reach.

Then, a huge monster appeared. Its mouth was huge and disturbing in shape, like a terrifying smile that was always open.

This is the alienated embodiment of overeating, with saliva dripping from the insect's mouthparts and making a harsh hissing sound, as if it is ready to devour everything at any time.

The other monster had no feet, but grew on the ground like a plant, its body closely connected to the ground with roots spreading everywhere.

It is the incarnation of sin that has long refused to work, its body like a decaying tree trunk covered with thick moss and rotten leaves.

Among these monsters, there was one with part of its body charred and burning. Its skin was dripping with burning asphalt, and it emitted a pungent burnt smell.

An angry or antisocial monster whose entire body seems to be engulfed in flames, with the charred parts looking like burnt charcoal.

The monsters' bodies were huge and deformed, taking up a lot of space.

Peng Pengpeng——

The monster, made up of countless arms, had its claws waving in the air and its arms squeezed together, causing the air in the car to become thin.

sizzle-

The huge gluttonous monster opened its mouth and saliva dripped onto the floor, making a corrosive sizzling sound.

Its huge body took up most of the carriage, further compressing the movement space for other monsters and Xia Xiu.

Hiss--

The footless monster that grew on the ground like a plant, with its roots spreading everywhere, stuck to the metal floor of the carriage, and the ground inside the carriage began to become wet and sticky.

Hua Hua Hua——

The charred and burning monster, with burning asphalt dripping from its body, instantly made the air in the car pungent and hot.

Every step it took left a mark of burns on the floor, and the temperature inside the car rose sharply, as if it was in a sea of fire.

Click click click click——

The monster was pierced by sharp objects, with spikes protruding from all over its body, occasionally hitting the seats and walls in the carriage, making harsh scraping sounds.

The metal plates inside the carriage were punctured, leaving hideous holes, and the air was filled with the smell of rust and decay.

The monster was carrying a heavy object, and the iron chains made a dull clash of sounds. Every step seemed heavy and painful.

Demons, ghosts, goblins and monsters.

At this moment, all appeared in the carriage.

In this crowded and chaotic environment, the seats in the carriage were overturned, the glass shattered, and the roars of the monsters and the roars of the hunters intertwined, forming a suffocating scene of chaos.

Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak——————

The carriage itself seemed to be struggling, with a harsh friction sound between the wheels and the tracks, and the entire space seemed to be shaking slightly.

Xia Xiu remained calm, standing in the center of the chaos. The cane in his hand shook slightly, making a low humming sound.

In an instant, a powerful energy wave spread from his body, and a dazzling golden light flashed in the air.

In this light, three pairs of light particle wings gradually appeared, and the figure of Metatron appeared in the car.

Its appearance seemed to bring with it some kind of sacred majesty and solemnity, and the sense of oppression fell on the shoulders of every creature like an invisible burden.

Metatron held a huge flaming sword in both hands, the blade of the sword was burning with hot lava, emitting a suffocating high temperature. Boom - a terrifying lava column was cut out from the six-winged angel's sword, rushing forward like a punishment from heaven.

Wherever the flame pillar passed, the monsters were cut in half and turned into black smoke and dissipated in the air.

Screams, screams and the hissing of burning lava mixed together to form a heart-pounding note.

The temperature inside the carriage rose sharply, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur and burning.

Those monsters of various shapes were powerless in front of Metatron's lava pillar; their figures twisted and dissipated in the flames.

The sharp claws, ugly mouthparts and charred body were all reduced to ashes in the baptism of flames.

Glass shattered, seats overturned,
Flames and blood mist intertwined,

Confusion and fear entangled here,
The breath of life seemed to be retreating.

The lava pillar, the punishment from heaven is coming,
The flames slashed through, and the demons wailed.
The charred body twisted in the flames,
Turned into smoke and dissipated in the air.

Rumble————

Metatron swung his flaming sword down, and the terrifying slash cut through the air, bringing with it a pillar of blazing lava.

Flames erupted in the carriage, and scorching air waves instantly filled the entire space.

The seats were ruthlessly split, the metal frame was melted, and the glass on both sides of the car shattered under the high temperature, with fragments flying everywhere.

The car cover on the top of the carriage was directly overturned under the powerful impact, and a huge hole appeared on the roof, and the air in the carriage was instantly connected to the outside world.

The cold night wind howled in, bringing a biting chill.

Through the broken hole, you can see the night sky outside, which is dotted with stars, forming a sharp contrast with the heat inside the carriage.

On the ground, charred debris and black smoke slowly dissipated in the embers of the fire.

A deep crack was left on the wall inside the carriage, as if the entire structure had suffered great damage in this fierce attack.

In the corner, some of the monster remains that had not been completely destroyed were still twitching slightly, their bodies twisted and deformed under the high temperature, and they emitted low wailing sounds.

The angel's light shines in this chaos, bringing a touch of sacred tranquility, but it also seems so cold and ruthless.

Xia Xiu stood in the middle of the carriage with a stern expression, and everything around him seemed to be under his control.

Ding ding ding~~~
His cane tapped the ground lightly, making a crisp sound, which was in stark contrast to the chaos around him.

Metatron's light particle wings flapped gently in the air, bringing up a warm breeze and dispelling the remaining dark aura.

Through the hole in the roof, starlight fell on the blond young man, and his handsome face looked particularly cold in the interweaving of light and shadow.

He looked up at the sky. The night view outside was dreamlike, yet full of weirdness and foreboding. Outside the train window, the dark forest swayed gently in the breeze, with mottled shadows of trees, as if countless ghosts were dancing. In the distance, the abandoned village was vaguely visible, with dilapidated houses and tilted chimneys casting eerie shadows in the moonlight.

Further away, the outlines of several ghost towns are blurred, and the buildings stand quietly like huge monsters, giving people a strong sense of unease.

The train travels through the dark night and the scene outside the window keeps changing.

Sometimes there would be a completely still world, without any living creatures or sounds, so quiet that it was suffocating.

At other times, the train seemed to have entered another dimension, with the sky filled with strange stars and misty clouds, and the ground filled with inexplicable emptiness, as if everything was collapsing and reorganizing.

The air was filled with a smell of decay and pollution, as if countless rotting creatures had turned to ashes on this land.

"The photo and the train are both root abnormal items." Xia Xiu murmured in his heart.

At the same time, he looked at the void around him.

There, figures emerged from the void, staring at him with bloody light.

Soon, four men and two women walked out of the void.

Xia Xiu calmly looked at the void around him. Ripples appeared in the void, staring at him with a bloody light. Soon, four men and two women walked out of the void.

The first person to appear was a middle-aged man with dark brown skin and sharp eyes. His eyes revealed tenacity and wisdom, and his face was covered with traces of weathering, showing that he had experienced countless hardships.

He was wearing a dark combat uniform, with clear muscle lines, looking very strong.

"Richard Wilson has met the Fourth Sword Bearer."

The middle-aged man put his hand on his chest and bowed to express his respect for the strong man in front of him. "The element I am responsible for in the Fourteenth Incarnation is social positioning. You can call me the Differentiator."

Following closely behind was an old man with short dark brown hair, slightly gray. His hair was sparse but neatly combed. There was a deep light in his eyes, and he wore glasses, as if he could see through everything.

Although he was thin, he gave people a feeling that he should not be underestimated, and the robe he wore had a bit of classical charm.

"Jonathan Joris meets the fourth sword bearer." The old man bowed his head in greeting. "Among the fourteen incarnations, the element I am responsible for is living. You can call me the cave dweller."

Next came an elderly woman with short, slightly curly, neat and elegant silver-white hair. Her face was covered with obvious wrinkles, but each wrinkle was like a medal of time, showing the years and hardships she had experienced.

She looked amiable, and was wearing an elegant long dress, radiating a maternal glow.

"Agnes Holden meets the fourth sword bearer." The oldest person present also bowed his head and saluted. "The element I am responsible for in my fourteenth incarnation is education. I am the camel driver in the desert of education."

Next to an educational tractor, Agnes Holden, was a young woman with long, naturally drooping golden hair, shiny and fair skin, a healthy glow, a tall figure and a light step.

Her eyes gave people a feeling of spring breeze, and like everyone else, she bowed to the fourth sword-bearer in awe.

"Ellie Townsend has seen the fourth sword bearer." She also reported the element she was responsible for in her fourteenth incarnation. "The element I was responsible for in my fourteenth incarnation was health. I am the foundation of human happiness."

Finally, two men in San Diego Rockets uniforms came side by side.

Their uniforms were neat, with the logo on their chests glowing faintly, showing their identity.

One man was tall, with a stern face and muscular arms; the other was a little thin, but there was a stern look in his eyes and he looked very alert.

"Carl Castiel has met the fourth sword bearer."

"Victor Blackwood has met the Fourth Swordbearer."

In just a moment, the six people took their positions in the void, and stood in line with the Arbiter in black wedding dress who had already run to the other end of the train. They stared at the fourth sword-bearer of the Kingdom of Heaven with some kind of extremely suppressed tension and passion.

Xia Xiu looked at the seven people, then looked around.

Seven people stood in the void, with their respective avatars appearing behind them.

"Seven bright sides and seven dark sides?" he muttered to himself.

Then, three halos of white jade floated behind his forehead.

Three terrifying avatars appeared behind him.

"Three incarnations!?!"

When everyone present saw the three terrifying incarnations, their pupils subconsciously shrank.

The next moment, the cave dweller in charge of the living element among the fourteen incarnations, Jonathan Joris who was wearing glasses, suddenly changed his expression, and his spirit transmitted the information he got from the root strange species to the other six teammates present through a special channel.

"There is a blank in the future, and someone will..."

Behind Xia Xiu, Vashak extended his index finger.

"Buzz——"

[Dispatch resource 1: Future vision glasses
Description: A pair of black half-rimmed glasses, the frames stained with blood from an unknown creature that cannot be removed or destroyed. The lenses will break under certain circumstances, but can be replaced with other lenses of the same size without affecting their functionality.

Unusual Characteristics:
When the wearer looks at a person or object through the glasses, he or she will see a countdown to a future event and the cause of its occurrence, which can display events up to two days later.

Retrieval: [Future Vision Glasses] were recovered during an interception of a Bulgaria Branch transport team, originally intended for use in "Causality" research.

Addendum 070-A: Excerpts from Testing Logs

Tester: Dr. Jonathan Joris
Test 1:

Observation object: a piece of target paper

Text content: 5 seconds later, the bullet penetrated

Result: The guard shot at the target paper at the fifth second and hit it accurately.

Test 2:

Observation object: a piece of target paper

Text content: 7 seconds later, the bullet penetrated

Result: The guard fired the bullet with the primer removed. No bullet was fired and the text changed to "Burst by bullet in 2 seconds". Two seconds later, another guard's rifle went off accidentally and the bullet ricocheted through the target paper.

Test 3:

Observation object: a piece of target paper

Text content: 3 seconds later, the bullet penetrated

Result: Guard fired with the primer removed. No bullet was fired and the text changed to "Consumed by flames 3 hours 15 minutes 20 seconds later".

Test 4:

Observation object: The target paper mentioned above

Text content: Burned by flames after 3 hours, 14 minutes and 27 seconds

Result: The three target papers were handled separately: A was discarded as waste, B was recycled, and C was placed in the office. A was sent to the incinerator, B was burned due to the explosion of the mobile phone battery of the porter, and C was burned by the focused sunlight.

Summary: A pair of black half-frame glasses that have the ability to predict future events. When the wearer looks at the target through the glasses, they will see the countdown and reasons for future events, and these events will almost always occur. The glasses are indestructible and the blood stains on the frames cannot be removed. Testing has shown that attempts to intervene in the occurrence of events usually only change the time, and it is difficult to prevent the event itself. Be careful to prevent the wearer from seeing the events that will happen to him through reflections to avoid causing harm. 】
