Embers of Embers

Chapter 255 There are many mysteries
His ears were cut with iron and air, making a sharp scream, like thousands of needles piercing Lorenzo's eardrums. A simple swing brought strong pressure, and his chest was pressed hard, making it difficult to breathe. Come.
The vision in front of him was completely covered by the rising pure flames, and the raging white fire roared towards him. At this moment, Lorenzo's thoughts were also blank. He had just learned about the strangeness of the [Gap], and then he ushered in the Pope. ’s onslaught, but beyond all that was the identity of the pope.
Lorenzo would never admit his mistake, he would never admit it, the burning eyes under the mask were very close at hand, he was a witcher.
The new pope is a witcher!Seine Lothair is a witcher!
How can this be?
Of course Lorenzo knew that the Evangelical Church was wary of demon hunters. It was already a miracle that Dean Lawrence could reach that height, and what happened to the new pope in front of him?How did he do it, and what happened within the Evangelical Church after Advent?
He had too many questions, but no one gave him the answers. Lorenzo skillfully raised the nail sword. Under the holy fireworks, he didn't even think about resisting. He could only retreat hard, but He was slashed by the pursuing sword light.
The rusty nail sword was burning with boiling fire, and the blazing temperature left a hideous wound on the body of Lorenzo...or the tombkeeper. The wound was directly burned by the high temperature, and was accompanied by severe pain. Not much blood came out.
Lorenzo's staggering steps may be the reason for his occupation of this body. Lorenzo's manipulation was extremely difficult, and the synchronization rate between consciousness and body could not keep up.
But before he could catch his breath, the blade of the sword swung into a hurricane, and the howling fire wave carried countless flying petals. In the dazzling light, the nail sword slashed hard.
This is a sword fight that no one knows about, in this witcher's graveyard.
Lorenzo hid hard to one side. At this critical moment, his consciousness was gradually taking control of the body of the tomb keeper. In the process, chaotic memories were also coming towards him, and at the same time, crazy sounds were heard. .
【Get out!Get out! 】
Someone shouted in Lorenzo's ear, and he went crazy, with all his strength.
The gravekeepers were whining and howling. Lorenzo was so unfamiliar with all this, and the invaded consciousness began to fight back in this desperate place.
The memory of the gravekeeper, the voice of the gravekeeper, the words and deeds of the gravekeeper, all of them are attacking the intruder, trying to drive him out of his mind.
Lorenzo's thoughts were in chaos. He saw the fatal sword strike from the Pope in front of him, and the curses and resistance were constantly tumbling in his mind.
This...is this what Lawrence has experienced?Such a strange and taboo power.
Every power has its own price, and Lorenzo can't imagine how Lawrence can control it all.
Lorenzo simply gave up the resistance and staggered up to run. His vision was blurred and chaotic due to the interference of the tombkeeper. The sea of ​​flowers in front of him was filled with double images. It felt like a hallucinogen injection. Too much of the same.
But the next moment he vigorously waved the blade in his hand. The blade of the nail sword was full of gaps and had an old smell, as if it had never been maintained after a certain battle.
But this kind of weapon is the only one Lorenzo can use at the moment. The gravekeeper is obviously not a demon hunter. What he is controlling is a real mortal body, and what he is fighting with is this unknown iron body. of the Pope.
Instinctively, he swung his sword to block the sword strike from behind, but at the moment of the collision, Lorenzo only felt the deep and powerful force coming from the hilt of the sword, and then his whole arm was numb. Fortunately, Lorenzo Zuo gritted his teeth and still clenched the blade tightly, but then the sound of metal cracking sounded, and the old nailed sword snapped.
The momentum knocked Lorenzo backwards, and he pushed forward for several meters into the sea of ​​flowers before slowly stopping. The moist soil was turned over, and he lay in it with scars.
The new pope did not continue to pursue. He was holding a flaming nail sword, and his face was covered by a cold mask. He seemed to be confused, and stopped in place, without moving forward rashly.
He was indeed a little confused, because the guy in front of him was a little different from the "kind of thing" before. It seemed too weak, even a little unfamiliar. Although they only fought for a few seconds, he could feel that he was like a toddler. A child who doesn't seem to understand how to use this power.
This is very strange, and the new pope's feeling is getting stranger and stranger, but the vigilance in his heart will not let him relax, and he will not let anyone go.
Slowly approaching, Lorenzo cursed angrily.
"Quiet!"
He reluctantly climbed up from the ground, holding the broken sword and scolding the resisting consciousness.
The consciousness of the gravekeeper scratched at Lorenzo, but was torn apart by his cruel cutting. He was destroyed bit by bit under the anger, and blood flowed from the corners of his eyes until the terrible erosion was released from it. The constant corruption and torture made the man who wanted to survive The sound continues to weaken until it disappears.
Lorenzo stood up slowly. Under the threat of death, he successfully suppressed his weak consciousness. He brushed his hand across the sea of ​​flowers and picked up a new nail sword from it, although it was still rusty. look, but at least it's complete.
He assumed the same posture as the new pope, which is the posture that all demon hunters would have, the starting point of Bologna swordsmanship.
Taking a deep breath, he tried his best to suppress the pain and fatigue in his body, and stabilize his restless heart. Just as the new pope thought, Lorenzo is a toddler, and he has no idea about the application of [Gap]. Everything is still being explored.
To be honest, Lorenzo really misses Watson now. Although this is an unknowable devil, Watson said a lot. She never harmed Lorenzo, it was just the choice she gave Lorenzo. The result of the decision put Lorenzo into a state of eternal doom.
This devil is quite reliable. If he knelt down and kissed her feet now, maybe with the blessing of the pseudo-Holy Grail, he could directly defeat the new pope in front of him.
However, Lorenzo also knew that Watson would not respond to his call. This strange existence must be planning something secretly. He also understood that although it was a bit ridiculous to say it, Lorenzo still valued dignity. Kissing He couldn't do this kind of thing on his feet.
Under the huge pressure, Lorenzo's thoughts couldn't stop diverging. It was obvious that the mortal body could not bear him. The tombkeeper's body swayed slightly, but in the end he stood firmly, holding the nail sword in his hand and pointing. The new pope in front of him.
Lorenzo wondered what would happen if he died here?After all, he is now in the state of a ghost. Fan Tie shouldn't be able to kill a ghost like himself, right?
But what if?What if my consciousness is annihilated here?Will the body in the Black Angel lose its vitality like a vegetative state and can only lie on the hospital bed forever?
Lorenzo couldn't figure it out clearly. He didn't have a mentor to guide him about this power, so he could only explore and test it alone.
In the eyes of the new pope, the tombkeeper suddenly laughed, spit out a mouthful of blood, and wiped his eyes covered by the blood, full of fighting spirit.
No, maybe death is just repatriation?
Lorenzo also felt that he was a little reckless going home this time. He had no idea how to return to the Black Angel. If he remembered correctly, the old Dunling was not far away from the Seven Hills.
Of course, these can all be verified. As long as Lorenzo makes a mistake, he will be beheaded by the new pope with a sword. However, before being beheaded, Lorenzo will do his best to test the new pope.
He is a demon hunter, a demon hunter who knows no faction or identity. He even said that he may have been corrupted by demons, and the entire Evangelical Church is now just a lie.
"come?"
Lorenzo challenged.
The new pope had no words or extra movements. He couldn't understand today's visitor. They were usually silent and never responded to any of his words. They just simply carried out the assassination operation.
"You... are a little special," he said.
"Of course."
Lorenzo was referring to the pseudo-Holy Grail he was carrying. Even now, Lorenzo still doesn't know what this thing can do. It's another unsolved mystery.
But the chat ended here. The moment he finished speaking, the new pope moved, his pure white robes sparkling with fireworks, like blazing pure white thunder. He was so fast that he landed in front of Lorenzo in a blink of an eye.
It was pressure like mountains. Although the contact time was so short, Lorenzo could feel that he was far younger than Lawrence and far more powerful than Lawrence.
It is not an unreasonable power, but a kind of desire. Human beings are driven by desire. The more greedy the desire, the more human beings can burn, and he is like the scorching sun.
Without any hesitation, Lorenzo ducked down to avoid the sweeping sword blade. As it passed by, a sharp buzz filled Lorenzo's hearing.
This is not a sword strike that Lorenzo can parry, at least not with the mortal body of the gravekeeper. If Lorenzo does not dodge, but takes it hard like before, this time he may cut off more than just the nail sword , and Lorenzo’s bones and flesh were all shattered under the violent arc.
The blow missed and then the roaring wind came out again. The demon hunter's reaction was far faster than a mortal body. Lorenzo could only find an opportunity to counterattack in this fatal gap.
He no longer expects to escape from the hands of the new pope. The mortal body is now the biggest burden. Even if Lorenzo hits the new pope multiple times, he can still recover with the strength of the secret blood, and he As long as he bears it once, the fragile body of the gravekeeper will die.
Lorenzo didn't know what would happen to him in the ghost state after being beheaded, but he at least wanted to get more information before then, information about the power of the new Pope.
The mortal body did not retreat but advanced. In this fatal sword strike, Lorenzo rushed forward and stabbed the nail sword in his hand. This move was so familiar to the new pope and every demon hunter. Sword skills that everyone knows.
If he didn't react, the blow would bypass his defense and hit his chest directly. In a mortal war, this blow could directly kill the enemy, but he was not a mortal, and secret blood surged in his body.
The new pope didn't want to dodge at all. He cut open most of the tombkeeper's body with the nail sword and cut off the entire arm along the shoulder. The blood dyed his robes red and scattered on the pure white flowers, scarlet. embellishes everything.
The severe pain was directly transmitted to Lorenzo's consciousness. He felt the same with this body. However, after all, he was also a demon hunter. Lorenzo's tolerance for pain was far beyond ordinary people. Even this could not change his sword. The direction of the blade.
The nailed sword stabbed straight at the new Pope, this time it was like a child's weak beating, even if it hit, it would not cause any damage, and the falling blade had already been raised again, the nailed sword set off a fiery curtain of fire, and it rolled Pick up those fluttering petals, and fall in gray ashes in the fall.
This time it was a diagonal slash, from top to bottom, which would chop off the tombkeeper's head. It was even said that he could be cut in half along his neck with one sword.
But Lorenzo didn't care, there was a slight smile on his somewhat stiff face.
He was close enough.
The control of consciousness over the body suddenly weakened, and synchronization began to fail. Like a running machine, each unit went offline one by one. Lorenzo lost control of the body, but at the same time, the strange shadow was like a rising soul. Get out of that flesh and blood body.
The new pope could see the somewhat twisted and unrecognizable ghost. Although it was blurry, he could see it, just like the unspeakable evil coming out of a dark fairy tale.
Lorenzo was very calm and said that he had been crazy for a long time, but he had been crazy for too long and he acted like a normal person.
This trip home gave him too many surprises, so many that he couldn't even think about them. He had no time to think about the consequences, so he made a crazy decision.
Why not try to invade the body of the new pope?
The illusory ghost broke out of the shackles of the body. At such a close distance, the new pope had nowhere to hide. Lorenzo was about to succeed. His hand gently touched his body, and then he easily pass through.
Lorenzo succeeded?
Before he had time to think, the new pope's body disintegrated strangely in the air, like an illusory setting sun. The melted wax oil and rising petals were blurred in the sight.
"Caught you..."
A cold voice sounded.
Lorenzo turned his head sharply, and what he saw was the steel mask. In the deep darkness, the fire seemed to penetrate directly through the constraints of the dimension, and the heat burned his soul. In the endless pain, Lorenzo saw something in that white glow.
For a moment, it seemed that he had lost all his strength. Lorenzo's eyes were a little dazed. At this time, the new pope also slowly stretched out his hand. He knew that he could not touch Lorenzo, and his will could not be killed by Fan Tie. Yes, but it can be replaced by a better will.
The chaotic and twisted hell unfolded before Lorenzo's eyes, and crazy illusions tortured the lost souls.
