Embers of Embers

Chapter 568 Divine Soldier descends from heaven
Heibald could barely see the outline under the strong light. Seleu jumped off the armored ship in front of his eyes and rushed towards the fallen Black Angel.
He stretched out his hand and tried to catch the falling girl, but Heibald could not do anything. He could not lift the falling girl, and he did not even have the ability to save himself.
The glow of light hung above the head, emitting light and heat. The rising temperature made the metal begin to burn red.
Heibald closed his eyes in pain to prevent the strong light from burning his pupils out. Waves of severe pain came from the surface of his body. The high temperature burned his skin, and blisters appeared one after another.
This was a cruel execution. The scorching heat boiled the sea surface, and the Dawn Advance was dragged into the burning, slowly roasting everyone to death.
Brilliant.
Perhaps... this is the limit of mortals.
Heibald thought this, but a sudden call broke his confusion.
"Hybold!"
someone shouted.
Haibold couldn't believe it, but then the voice sounded again.
"Hybold!"
The girl called anxiously.
"Se... Seleu?"
Haybold responded loudly. He couldn't open his eyes and groped hard on the ground. The temperature of the deck was extremely high, and every touch brought a heartbreaking pain.
"Pull me up!"
After listening to the girl's words, Heibald stood up with difficulty. The wound on his chest was still leaking blood, but he still stabilized his figure.
Probably because his eyes were closed, he couldn't see the bright light at the moment. With his vision lost, he felt a lot more at ease.
With the vague impression in his memory, he crawled on the deck, looking for the rope that tied Seleu, and shouted at the same time.
"Clough!"
Haybold called to the Vikings.
That was a timid guy. Maybe he was once a brave Viking warrior, but under this endless nightmare, he had lost his former pride and courage.
Haybold kept calling, but there was no response.
This is to be expected, not everyone has the courage to face death.
The only thing Heybold could rely on now was himself. After groping around, he finally touched the tight rope and pulled it with great effort.
"Is it right?"
Haybold was still a little unsure and shouted loudly.
"Yes! Quick!"
Seleu replied anxiously.
She was hanging on the side of the hull, and at the last moment she pulled Lorenzo out of the Sin Armor and held him tightly in her arms.
Fortunately, the silver bolt in Lorenzo's body had been removed a long time ago. Otherwise, with the weight of the silver bolt, it would be difficult for Seleu to hold Lorenzo.
The suffocating foehn blows towards the face, constantly blowing the two of them, causing them to hit the hull continuously.
Lorenzo seems to have lost consciousness, or may still be trapped in the "gap". He is unresponsive, just like a corpse.
Seleu also closed her eyes tightly. She felt as if she was in a furnace. At this moment, she could do nothing but hold Lorenzo tightly. All hope must be given to Hibald.
She could feel the power coming from the other end of the rope, and Haybold did it. He was pulling the two of them up little by little.
The burning sensation constantly invaded Haibod's body, and every inch of his body was being burned. As he continued to pull, the blood blisters on his palms were worn out, and his palms were bloody and bloody, and even the ropes were stained. became red.
But Hebold didn't let go. This was probably the last thing he could do, to maximize the value of life before death.
He wants to bring Seleu and Lorenzo back from the brink of hell.
After getting along for such a long time, although Lorenzo sometimes seems mean and annoying, it has to be said that he can be regarded as Hibald's friend. Without him, Hibald felt that he would have died in Maru. In the harbor.
Seliu is also a good girl. Although she is very cold, after chatting with her, Heibald found that she is also quite interesting. They both have the same hobby and like to read some knight novels.
To be honest, Heibald never imagined that he would find common ground with people in this kind of place. This feeling is quite subtle. Everyone grew up in different cultural backgrounds. They are so different, but they have something in common. place.
Then he thought of another person. At such a damn time, Heibald actually thought of Kestrel, the leader who led him into this strange hobby. He didn't know how he was doing now.
Thinking about it carefully, it's really good that Kestrel didn't participate in this operation. Judging from his unlucky luck, he might have died on the road before reaching the Silent Sea.
Haybold could already imagine the grief, anger and screams on his face. Maybe he was still asking about pensions and other related matters when death was imminent.
Finally there is a familiar face.
"If...if the Hall of Valor is really at the end of the Sea of ​​Silence, and I die here, I should arrive at the Hall of Valor soon."
Haybold closed his eyes tightly and muttered to himself.
He will soon go to the Hall of Valor and meet his best friend. He will fight in a hell-like reincarnation that will never end. But if he can be with his best friend, this kind of hell sounds pretty gentle. .
Thinking of this, his hand slowly lost its strength. When Hybold woke up, the rope slipped quickly in his hand, cutting his palm. He tried to hold on to the rope, but he couldn't stop it from leaving. .
"No no no no!"
Haybold roared, enduring the severe pain, and just when he was desperate, the rope suddenly stopped.
"Keep pulling, Hibold."
A weak voice sounded from behind, and Heybold turned his head. Against the light, he reluctantly opened his eyes.
Haybold could barely see his appearance clearly in the blinding light.Clough wrapped the rope around his body and firmly prevented the rope from breaking away.
Suddenly Hebold understood why he didn't respond to his cry. There was a deep wound on Clough's neck. When Hebold was knocked down by the flying metal, not only was Hebold injured, but so was Clough. He only He can tilt his head and press the wound hard to slow down the flow of blood.
His skin was covered with burned blood bubbles. One of his eyes had been blinded by the strong light and turned into translucent gel that slowly flowed. The other eye was slightly squinted, but his vision was also constantly improving. decline.
"This... will be my achievement in going to the Hall of Valor."
Clough spoke intermittently.
Haybold was stunned for a few seconds, then he growled, picked up the tight rope, wrapped it around his hand several times, and walked toward the other end of the deck with it on his back.
Seleu and Lorenzo continued to be lifted up, and the temperature that followed became more and more scorching.
The sea snake started a new round of action. A huge snake appeared on the other side of the sea. It tried to wrap around the Morning Glory Advance and completely smash it into pieces. The sound of broken metal rang in the ears, just like a person bit by bit. Squeeze the cans flat.
In an instant, an indescribable force invaded here. Everyone had a similar feeling, as if something invisible had arrived here.
It was also at this time that a hook shot out from the boiling sea, hitting the burning pupils directly, and the painful wailing resounded throughout.
After retracting the hook, the Black Angel rushed out of the sea and headed straight into the depths of the strong light. The iron feather struck with a slash. It was so strong that even the extreme high temperature could not melt or evaporate it in the first place.
The snake's eyes are not protected by scales, and are only covered with soft gelatin. The iron feathers are like cutting into the soft flesh, and the hooks are piercing towards the other end, dragging the black angel to slash horizontally.
Daylight was killed.
Seliu only felt that hot rain was falling from the sky, and the hot air brought with it the smell of blood.
She could clearly feel the interruption of the high temperature. She tried to open her eyes, and saw the black angel who had stabbed the sea snake blind. A huge scar ran across the eyes of the sea snake, destroying that delicate face. At this moment, this peaceful A little emotion finally appeared on his face, he was angry and painful.
The hook rope was shot out again and nailed into the deck. Black Angel landed firmly on the ground, dragging the rope and pulling Seleu and Lorenzo up together.
The two of them fell heavily onto the hot deck, and Seleu grinned from the residual heat, while Lorenzo seemed to be dead and unresponsive.
"Lorenzo?"
Haybold looked at the Black Angel in surprise, but it was a little different from when Lorenzo controlled the Black Angel remotely.
Fiery fireworks poured out from the gaps in the armor. This fire was far more powerful than Lorenzo's. It was as if a burning spirit was being restrained under the heavy steel. Once the armor was broken, the raging fire would judge him. everything.
More importantly, the Black Angel gave Heibald a slightly different feeling at the moment. Perhaps it was the change in posture, or perhaps some other details. It seemed that the person inhabiting it at this moment was no longer Lorenzo.
The fire was blazing, and the black angel's movements were non-stop. It waved its wings, and the sharp iron feathers slid out one after another, accurately hitting the noble face of the sea snake.
This is its only weak point. It is not protected by scales, and its fragile flesh is completely exposed to the eyes.
The black angel waved a metal storm as if dancing, with dense iron feathers nailed to his face.
The sea snake whined, and the harsh roar shook all the surrounding materials together with it. He raised his body high, and since he could no longer torture the prey, he would give it a fatal blow.
The snake's body rose from the ground, and no one could stop it from falling. However, as the sea snake rose, its ferocious wounds were also completely exposed. At the collision angle of the Blood Shark, it collided with Aska's body. The wounds after Long's bombardment were huge and brutal.
After the light, there was a huge shadow.
The shadow of the sea snake covered everyone, bringing despair and depression. Even the iron feather of the black angel could not stop such a huge body from falling.
There was fear in everyone's eyes, and the Black Angel also stopped attacking and stood quietly, waiting for death to come.
The whistle sounded.
This was not the whistle of the Dawn Advance, but the sound of another ship.
what happened?
No one knew, but the next moment the sea snake seemed to be hit hard by something, its figure twisted, and amidst the loud noise, its whole body fell down uncontrollably.
"Ahhhh!"
Tuke screamed and drove the Seahorse into the sea snake's wound.
Now his mood is very broken. To be precise, he has been very broken since he entered the Sea of ​​Silence.
The impact brought violent vibrations, and the golden coins splashed and fell. These things used to fascinate Tu Ke, but now for him, these things are no different from dust, and he even said that Tu Ke has never hated them before. With gold.
It's all because of these damn golds, all because of them, Tu Kezai suffered everything like this nightmare.
As the Seahorse hit the sea snake's wound, a huge amount of blood overflowed and spread all over the deck, dyeing Tuco's vision red. He only felt that the temperature around him had risen a lot, and then he escaped from the cabin and abandoned the ship. And escape.
A few seconds later, the bow of the ship exploded one after another.
This is a gift from the Seahorse. According to Tuke's calculations, they should have caught up with the Morning Glory Advance earlier, but in order to prepare these explosives, they docked in the bays of the Viking countries for a period of time to replenish these arms.
The burning high temperature converges into a spherical restricted area. All materials in the restricted area are being burned and destroyed. The powerful impact is poured into the flesh, like an out-of-control bison, repeatedly hitting the twisted body and scarlet tentacles. Without time to heal, he was traumatized again.
The strong scales could defend against attacks from the outside, but they could not protect the fragile interior. Even with the scarlet tentacles, the instantaneous explosion was too violent.
The roaring explosion tore the Seahorse into pieces, and the broken metal was inserted into the flesh one by one, further tearing the snake's wound. The sea snake kept whining, and these three consecutive attacks made his body more and more broken, and even the entire body. The snake's body could no longer be maintained and was completely broken in the fire.
Seleu pulled Lorenzo, and she could only see the huge head with its bleeding eyes tightly closed and a ferocious and painful expression. He kept wailing, and finally fell to the bottom of the sea, causing heavy waves.
Everything is at peace.
Haybold stared at these blankly, unable to believe his eyes.
There were enough desperate situations today that he suspected that what he saw was just a beautiful illusion that he had imagined. In fact, he was dead, and now he was just waiting for the arrival of the Valkyrie to guide him to the heroic spirit. temple.
But after a few minutes, the sea changed from restless to calm again, dark red blood covered all the sea area within sight, the temperature dropped slowly, and even the feeling of oppression and disgust in my heart was constantly weakening.
Maybe... they really won this time.
Even the epidemic doctor couldn't believe this. He stood up and saw a figure jumping onto the deck. The evaporating water vapor covered his figure, but he could see that he had thrown a person up.
Tuke rolled a few times on the deck, stopped in a corner, and then vomited the seawater in pain. Another figure went straight to Seleu, and he looked down at Lorenzo.
"What a shame, Lorenzo."
As he spoke, he kicked Lorenzo, who was motionless. After a while, Lorenzo opened his eyes tiredly and saw the person who had arrived.
Although her face was very unfamiliar, Lorenzo recognized her at first sight.
"Watson..."
