Xingyue, another world recasts the glory of human nature

Eileen replied softly:

"Logically speaking, you have already come here, so you should be able to see the lights."

A little light will attract the attention of the beast, but a lot of light can resist the beast.Generally speaking, wild beasts will not attack human strongholds where light gathers.

Once an attack occurs, it means that the number of beasts has exceeded a limit.That was also the time when hunters came together to clean up the wild beasts in the lower city.

But now, there is still darkness ahead, and not even a light can be seen.It seemed as if every place in the lower city was plunged into darkness.

"There should be a square ahead. Bonfires are lit all year round in the square, forming a market in the lower city..."

Erin said slowly, then looked at Arash:

"General Arash, can you help me take a look."

Arash shook his head: "I have seen the square you mentioned. But I did not see the so-called bonfire. It was also dark there."

"As for the market you mentioned, there are indeed a lot of things piled up there, but they are all in tatters. They seem to have been plundered by wild beasts."

Arash paused:

"I'm afraid this city has fallen."

"Falled?" Irene's face became even paler.

Logically speaking, as long as the hunters clean up the beasts regularly, there will be no such thing as the fall of the lower city.

When this happens, there are generally two possibilities.

One is that the beast tide in the lower city has experienced some uncontrollable mutation, which has resulted in the lower city being unable to be saved even with the intervention of hunters.

The other is... there is a problem with the hunter organization, and the beasts in the lower city have not been cleared for some time.

This caused the beasts to accumulate continuously, and eventually formed a beast tide, swallowing up the lower city area.

Judging from the current situation, it is obviously the second option that is most likely.

There is a problem with the Hunter organization...

A strong worry emerged in Irene's heart. Those hunters were all her relatives and friends, as well as her most beloved teacher.

It was really hard for her to imagine what kind of change would cause the hunters to give up their duty of killing wild beasts.

"Get ready to fight... There are a large number of beasts running behind the square ahead, which is even larger than the beast tide we encountered before."

Arash sighed, he had seen more than everyone present.The dilapidated buildings tell the story of the attacks that took place here.

The heavy wooden door was torn open, and he could especially imagine the despair of the owner as the beast broke in.

There were various broken personal belongings on the ground, and Arash also saw a bloody and torn puppet.

All the beasts encountered on this trip are human beings. Unlike the battlefield where the armies of both sides can fight without any scruples, even Arash, who is used to life and death, still feels a little uncomfortable when it comes to killing these beast shifters who were mostly civilians. .

However, he also understood that instead of letting these self-lost beast-turners wander around and harm other people, it was better to give them relief and let death take them to sleep.

Three hundred solemn knights entered the original market square.

There was no need for Arash to prompt him at this moment. What was exposed outside the light source of the lighting golem were densely packed black figures, their gray-white hair covered with traces of dried blood.

The lower city has been occupied. If you don't want to become the food of the beast, you can only transform into the beast. That way, you still have the hope of fighting each other and surviving.

"Array!"

Lancelot, who was wearing purple armor, pulled out the sword from its sheath. In this dark environment, the Holy Sword of the Stars [Indestructible Lake Light] was emitting pure blue light, like a lake washing away sins.

The knights formed a phalanx and guarded Kazama and others.

Dozens of solemn knights in the central formation raised their large iron bows, with arrows half as thick as an arm resting on the bow strings.

When the bow string was loosened, a dull roar erupted, and more than a dozen powerful arrows instantly pierced the beasts in front, and their momentum did not decrease until they penetrated the entire herd.

A round of direct fire from a large bow dealt a huge blow to the beasts, causing the beasts to become confused.

The solemn knight holding a big halberd has slowly stepped forward, retreating against the beast tide with slow but firm steps.

Many wild beasts attacked from both sides, but they were chopped into pieces by two-handed swords.

The solemn knight is like a towering and heavy city wall, resisting the impact of wild beasts.Moreover, this wall is still spiked and will fall apart when touched.

The herd of beasts seemed endless, but the military formation of the Solemn Knights was like a sharp knife, piercing into the core of Yanan without any hindrance.

.........

At this moment, in the center of Yanan City, inside the Cathedral of the Healing Church.

Surrounded by countless candlelights, Lawrence, who was under the statue, opened his eyes and looked toward the southwest.

He could hear countless wailings, and the flesh and blood of the sacrifices were placed on the great throne in advance.

"It's coming...it's coming so fast."

"To the southwest, in the lower city area, there is indeed an abandoned secret passage there."

"Irene, the crow hunter... It seems that letting her leave Yanan was a big mistake."

"Speaking of which, you really have a good student..."

Lawrence's deer-headed mask turned slightly and looked to his side.

To the right of the statue, illuminated by countless candlelights, the ground reflected a huge and twisted shadow.

"The time is coming, I have to set off to start the ceremony to welcome Him."

"It's up to you to take your hunters to greet these visitors for me."

"Ludwig..."

Chapter 168 Hunter Beast Transformer

"Such a big movement...the other party should be aware of our intrusion."

What was left behind by the Sovereign Knights was a bloody road filled with corpses.Almost every knight's silver-white armor has a touch of dark red blood.As they advanced, the darkness became less dense, like the scene before dawn.

However, it is not the golden morning light that brings the light, but the rich color of blood.

The city of Yharnam was shrouded in blood.

Outside the city of Yanan, the sun should be shining brightly on the earth at this time.There is something that separates Yanan.

Perhaps there is a reason why Yanan closed himself in this canyon. Compared with the outside world, this ghost-like world is what they want.

"This...."

He tore through the raging beast tide and truly entered the main city from the lower city to the familiar city of Irene.

Looking at the bloody sky, Irene was also extremely surprised.

Although Yanan has been shrouded by dark clouds all year round and looks extremely dark, it has not turned into such an evil appearance.

Looking at the blood in the sky, an almost irrepressible animality burst out of her heart.

All kinds of dark thoughts kept emerging, trying to occupy her mind.Erin could hear vague and confusing words that seemed to come from a distant place in the sky.

It wasn't until a ray of coolness bloomed from her chest that Irene's chaotic consciousness gradually returned.A clear crystal appeared on her neck.

It was Hohenheim who handed over the crystal necklace.

"This necklace can help you resist some negative mental states, so keep it in hand."

Erin whispered her thanks, lowered her head and reached out to touch the necklace.

She was thinking about what had just happened, and she felt so frightened that she did not dare to look up at the sky again.

The changes in the sky, or the changes covering the entire Yharnam, are extremely fatal to all the people of Yharnam who have the curse of lycanthropy.

It's like a very strong catalyst, instantly breeding animal nature and stripping the human nature from the body of the beast-turner.

She is like this, but she has the protection of human power, strange spells, and magic props. What about the others?

What made Erin a little desperate was that even after leaving the lower city and coming to the central city, she didn't find any human beings wherever she looked.It is impossible that the beast tide in the lower city also flooded the central city.

Compared to Irene, Hohenheim and Avisbron, who are more knowledgeable in mysticism, can see more clearly.

"Master Kazama, the reality here has been seriously eroded, or it can be said that this place has basically completed the most superficial alienation."

It is not a temporary alienation that erodes reality like the great inherent barrier magic, but a complete and almost irreversible alienation.

You can get a glimpse of part of it from the strange ecology you saw in the Lower City from the beginning.

"Even if this world does not have the existence of restraining power, and it is not Gaia consciousness or Alaya consciousness, the most basic world correction power should still be there. For the correction of abnormalities, there is no need for world consciousness, but a kind of world consciousness. Instinct, a rule.”

"What does this mean?" Kazama asked.

The person who answered Kazama's question was Avis Bronn, who has related magic research.After all, one of the abilities of his Noble Phantasm, the Original Golem Adam, is to corrode the world and transform the material world into a 'paradise'.

"This means that the consciousness of this world is quite weak, or perhaps some kind of terrifying high-level existence has made this world so weak. Its tentacles have deeply eroded into the world itself."

"In short, this world is very abnormal and a sick world. Otherwise, with the obstruction of world consciousness, human reason cannot easily come here."

"Perhaps... what happened in Yharnan, or in other words, the sealed ancient ruins behind Rome had a tentacle of that terrible influence."

"But there is still good news. Although it has been transformed into another world, it is only on the surface. The reality still occupies the vast majority."

"According to the information collected from Bai Mang and the hunter lady, this rapid change occurred during this period, and the change is far from over."

"So, as long as the root cause is solved before then, there is still room for change?" Kazama asked.

"That's right. Otherwise, this place will be completely fixed to the demonic realm of a certain dimension. Terrible things will happen if this is the source. The worst result is that the originally very stable seal of the ruins will be broken."

"After all, until now, we still don't know what dangerous things exist in that ruins, so that such a huge piece of land must be completely sealed off."

"That's what we're here for..."

"But before that, we have to face Yanan's obstruction."

They used a surprise attack to fight all the way up from the bottom of Yharnam, but on the side of the Healing Church, the archbishop obviously couldn't think that he could stop the invasion of foreign enemies just by destroying the passage.

"Anyone who has a clear mind and whose rationality has not been completely swallowed up by animal nature will be prepared."

The raging beast tide suddenly began to recede at this time, as if driven by instinctive fear.But the fear did not come from the solemn knights who slaughtered them one-sidedly.

Lycanthropes are born because of a curse. The essence of the curse is the pollution of high-level powers, and there are also differences in the level of pollution.

What makes the beasts fearful and disperse on their own is that compared to them, they are higher-level beings with burlier bodies, more twisted shapes, and more insane and bloodthirsty beastly natures.

A twisted monster appeared in front of the Sovereign Knights.

"The false apostle...is the same kind of monster that the previous Lord Joya Xian transformed into."

Monsters that become false apostles need to meet one of at least two paths.

One is that it can affect huge cause and effect and cause huge karma.

The other is to roughly accept the pollution of high-ranking power. As long as the human container is strong enough, it is possible to transform into a false apostle.

There were probably more than a dozen pseudo-apostles in front of them, and they still held weapons in their hands.In other words, the weapons and their bodies are closely integrated.

"Hunters turned into false apostles..."

The only ones qualified to become material are baptismal warriors who have achieved extraordinary physical conditions.If you put it in Yanan, it would be a hunter.

"There are only these. It seems that this method of shaping apostles is very risky, and it is far less smooth than gathering karma to shape apostles."

Chapter 169 Ludwig

Hunters, people who once hunted wild beasts and protected people, have now become the beasts themselves that harm and kill people.

"Lyphism is a disaster for the people of Yharnam, and it is even more of a curse for the hunters of Yharnam."

Glancing at Erin next to her, the crow hunter clearly recognized the alchemical weapons attached to the pseudo-apostle, which made her body tremble slightly.

There is indeed something wrong with the hunter organization, and it was forcibly catalyzed to become like this.

Compared with the apostles of Xi'an City Lord and Yanan City Lord, these pseudo-apostles obviously have no reason at all, but are completely animalistic incarnations, which means that they will be more powerful.

The hunter's beast has moved. Since it has lost the ability to communicate, its only goal after seeing humans is to kill and eat.

Hohenheim, Avisbronn, and Arash, the three servants with long-range attack methods, together with the solemn bow-wielding knight, launched an attack.

The street buildings on both sides were shattered, and tall demon dolls rose from the ground to stop the attacking beasts.

Arrows fell from the sky like a rain of falling stars, accompanied by a dense roar, and thick dust rose up from the street ahead.

Then strong winds swept through, turning into a huge whirlpool, igniting flames in the whirlwind mixed with gravel and dust, and enveloped the block ahead.
