Embers of Embers

Chapter 537 Encounter
Heibald raised his head and looked at the molten spear that exploded in the night sky. The scattered sparks spread to the entire field of vision, illuminating most of the dock. After a few seconds, the semi-melted metal fell one after another and fell into the sea. A burst of mist also fell slightly on the pier, tinkling like a rain of arrows.
"I hope Lorenzo can understand this..."
Haybold looked back and muttered in a low voice.
After dealing with the attackers, they were supposed to go to Floki and meet Lorenzo there, but after walking a few steps, Seleu suddenly denied this action.
"If I were Lorenzo, Lengbing Bay will only become more and more chaotic due to the interference of all forces. It would be better to directly kidnap Floki and stay away from this land of right and wrong."
This was the conclusion drawn by Seleu at the time.
"So?" Haybold asked in confusion.
"So? We should return to the Dawn Advance and let the engine warm up and enter the state. As long as Lorenzo carries Floki back to the ship, we can escape from here at full speed. No one can catch up with us." Seliu said .
Everyone was silent for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, they found that Seleu's plan was indeed worthy of trust. The main reason was that she was one of the few people who could keep up with Lorenzo's thinking. During this time, Lorenzo was striding towards here with Floki on his back.
"The most important thing is that this is our initiative to release a signal. Notar has no authority to do this. You are the only one who can issue orders." Seliu said and looked at Lan Jade.
"That is to say, when the signal flare goes up, Lorenzo will understand that I am on the ship and you guys are with me," Lan Jade said. "This will save a lot of time to prevent him from going back to find us and delaying us." ”
"The other thing is, I need to convince you, don't I?" Seliu said seriously.
After pondering for a while, Lan Jade agreed with Seliu's plan.
What happens next is what happens now, returning to the Dawn Advance, launching the Forged Spear, the engine roaring, ready to set sail.
Heybold looked at the girl standing on the deck. Seleu showed the leadership ability that a duke should have at this moment. She commanded the crew and issued various orders to wake up the giant steel beast under her feet.
Some people had objections at first, but under Blue Jade's strong request, they all chose to believe it, even Captain Notal.
"Hurry up! Boys! If nothing else happens, we will be the enemy of Lingbing Bay in a few minutes!"
Notar roared. He was only wearing a coat, and his body shrank into a trembling bamboo pole. His bare legs could be seen from below.
Notal was still sleeping when Hebold and others found him. Time was running out, so this guy put on his coat and rushed out.
"Damn it, this is indeed some kind of military operation, right! Are we going to push all the way across the Viking Kingdoms!"
Notar seemed to be a little awake, talking nonsense. Fortunately, the cold wind in the north was cold enough, and he woke up completely after a while and did not delay his actions.
"What about your agreement with Lingbingwan?" It was only then that Haibode remembered that Seleu also had a mission.
"Lorenzo will bring Floki, and we can solve it together then," Seleu said nonchalantly, "Besides, my mission is not important at all, is it? It's just a cover to cover yours." action."
Everyone was hiding these things, but Seleu could see through it easily. In fact, when she used the Original Sin Armor in the naval battle, she understood that this was just a trade signing, and Seleu thought she was leading a convoy. , but in fact they are a legion armed to the teeth.
No matter how you think about it, there is something wrong with it.
Lan Jade opened her mouth to explain something, but was interrupted by Se Liu.
"I understand, I understand. I am also one of the shareholders after all. I also know a lot about the regulations of the cleanup agency. If you don't tell me, I won't ask. In short, let's get over this current difficulty first."
There was no crying or fussing. Regarding the matter being concealed, Seliu seemed very sensible and didn't ask too many questions.
"If there is an emergency sailing, the remaining cargo ships will be abandoned here." Notal said.
Lan Jade told Notal not to worry too much, "It doesn't matter. The main supplies are all on the Morning Glory Advance, and they are used to attract the other party's attention."
The muddiest the water, the better their chances.
Although she thought so, Lan Jade was still a little absent-minded and felt extremely distressed. She never expected that the situation would be hurtling in such a bad direction. She was already in such trouble before she even entered the Sea of ​​Silence. It was hard to imagine that there would be something else after the Sea of ​​Silence. Something is waiting for them.
The whistle sounded again and again. The crew stood guard next to the artillery, waiting for orders. The elevator above the deck slowly opened and sent a third-generation armor to the deck. This was a blue jade armor. She didn't have too many Manipulation experience, so only three generations of armor can be used.
But Lan Jade was not in a hurry to put on the armor, it wasn't that bad yet... until a little light shone at the end of the sea level.
The first person to discover it was Highbold. As a Viking, he was personally sent by the king. Now that Hebold was involved in the operation to eliminate the agency, for a while he was a little unclear about where he was from.
This strange situation made him think for a while, his eyes wandering randomly until he stopped on the sea surface and saw the glimmer of light rising behind it.
At first there were only one or two light spots, but slowly, there were more and more light spots. The sound of steel breaking through the sea waves came with the wind, and the noise of the roaring engine hovered together with it.
"what is that?"
He walked to the edge of the deck in confusion and put his hands on the railing.
The next moment, Heibald heard a roar coming from the far end of the sea, and then a light spot suddenly appeared in the darkness. It grew bigger and bigger until it filled Heibald's frightened pupils.
"Enemy attack!"
Heibald yelled, he was very fast, he picked up Seliu who was at a loss, and then he picked up Lan Jade. The three of them crashed into the shadow of the cabin and lay on the deck. Then heavy shells came from the deck. It passed above, shattering the deck along the way, and finally hit the cabin, igniting a fire.
Several armored ships sailed out of the darkness. The soldiers on board looked at these with expressionless faces, faithfully executing the orders of the epidemic doctors.
……
"What was that just now?"
Garen struggled to move forward, recalling the exploding Forged Spear in his mind. He had never seen such a weapon, let alone such a scene.For a moment, I felt a little sad. The gap between the Viking countries and the rest of the world was already so huge. How could they catch up?
"I said it was a flare, do you believe it?" Lorenzo said without looking back, "But you can also use it as a flare."
Although it sounds a bit ridiculous, Lorenzo feels that he is not lying. The Forged Spear can indeed be used to do this. This has been proven in practice.
Garen said nothing more. They found a few horses, and the deputy struggled to get Garen up. They rode the horses and ran wildly on the streets of Lingbing Bay.This city can be considered prosperous among the Viking countries, but it is still far behind the old Dunling.
The road was muddy, and a few people quickly crossed the sea of ​​​​fire and chaos, leaving all the hustle and bustle behind.
Someone noticed a few people running wildly and tried to stop them. A burst of gunshots was heard. Winchester accurately broke the legs of several people. They rolled and fell to the ground, and were immediately trampled by horse hooves. Let out a whimpering cry.
Lorenzo became their enemy, and the enemy was about to be eradicated. More and more figures appeared around them, and gradually the same sound of horse hooves sounded.
"We can't escape." Garen said desperately.
"As long as we get to the dock, we win."
Lorenzo opened fire again, killing several more of his enemies, loading the Winchester amid the turbulence and re-aiming.
In an instant, the blazing dragon's breath surged wildly, and they moved forward with a few people, using blazing fire to protect their movements.
Usually dragon breath bombs are very useful, and creatures are instinctively afraid of flames, but this time Lorenzo's enemies are not afraid of death. They even restrained their instincts and stride towards the flames.
The staff and sword roared low, cutting open the body, and the severed head was thrown high. Lorenzo rushed at the front, cutting the way for the people behind him.
"Mr. Holmes..."
Garen looked ahead. He seemed to see something and shouted in a low voice.
His voice was too weak. During the fierce pursuit, Lorenzo couldn't hear his words clearly. Gallon also tried to warn him loudly, but when the words reached his lips, he found that he could not speak at all.
fear.
The fear of the unknown captured him. He tried to resist, but was powerless. He breathed rapidly until he exhausted all his strength and finally found some respite under this oppression.
"Holmes!"
Garen stretched out his hand in fear, pointed forward, and roared.
Lorenzo saw Garon's gesture from the corner of his vision, and then looked forward. The fire tore through the darkness. At the end, someone was waiting there.
The darkness dissipated, and heavier pressure fell into everyone's heart. This is the price. The price of looking directly at the unknown. The beating of the heart can't help but intensify. As the sight becomes clearer, the things seen become more detailed. This heaviness The pressure became more and more intense, until it was breathless, until he could see his appearance clearly.
The broken cloak covered most of the body, and the exposed arms were also covered by scratched silver armor. He was holding a spear, and there was an unseeable darkness under the helmet.
"God Odin."
Garen's eyes were dull, and he murmured that he saw him again tonight.
Lorenzo was not as shocked as Garen, and uttered a different word than Odin.
"pioneer."
Without any warning, Lorenzo suddenly jumped up from his horse. Fireworks wrapped around the nailed sword, and the scorching heat enveloped the metal, as if it would burst in the next second.
"I'll wait for you on the boat!"
After working together for so long, Shrike has long been accustomed to Lorenzo's various changes, and the two have maintained a corresponding tacit understanding. Without asking why Lorenzo did this, he quickly crossed the battlefield and ran towards the dock.
Garen's eyes were fixed on the leaping figure. He couldn't believe it. Why did Lorenzo dare to draw his sword?He had no idea what he was dealing with.
That is god.
How dare mortals draw swords against gods?
Lorenzo held the flaming nail sword, and his figure rolled rapidly in mid-air. All the power was exerted on the nail sword. This blow could break everything.
Maybe Lorenzo would still believe in gods in the past, but it's different now. It's all a scam, everything is like this, whether it's gods or demons, they are all false.
Lorenzo will use his sword to verify one after another.
The pioneer didn't move. He didn't seem to realize Lorenzo's sword strike. The bitter wind brought an irresistible sword force, and he slashed down on the head.
The sword attack missed, Lorenzo didn't hit anything, the nail sword slashed through the air fiercely, and finally fell to the ground. The force was so great that the whole ground trembled for a while, and the flames wrapped around the staff sword also It broke out instantly, and the raging heat wave spread to all directions, knocking over those enemies who tried to pursue it.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Lorenzo withdrew his nail sword and looked at the pioneer not far away. This was the first time Lorenzo saw him, but it was only at the first moment that Lorenzo instinctively realized his identity.
The Herald didn't respond. He stood there silently like an unknowable fog, blocking Lorenzo's way.
Lorenzo frowned slightly, and a blazing white light rose in his eyes, as if a pure white storm was swirling in his pupils.
If nothing else happens, Pioneer, like himself, is also a sublimated person with secret blood. He also possesses the power of Gabriel. Among the enemies Lorenzo has encountered, he may be more troublesome than Lawrence.
A guy who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and without knowing his purpose, Lorenzo could only be more vigilant.
"he came."
Suddenly, the Herald spoke.
"Who's coming!"
Lorenzo pressed, but made no answer.
After the pioneer said these words, as if he had completed his mission, he turned around and walked into the darkness with his spear in hand. Lorenzo tried to chase him, but at this moment there was the sound of another footsteps, The sound got closer and closer until it came out of the darkness.
"Oh, I didn't expect to see you here!"
The visitor's voice was cheerful, and he looked really happy to see Lorenzo.
Lorenzo looked in the direction where the sound came from. The faint light reflected on the beak mask, and then was reflected back by the mirror on it.
"Apparently, this is our first meeting, Mr. Holmes."
Lorenzo nodded, he no longer cared about the traces of the pioneers, but confronted this strange guy head-on.
"Yes, epidemic doctor."
For a long time, both of them have heard of each other's existence, and now they are finally here to witness each other's existence with their own eyes.
