Oracle of Terra

"Well, I respect your choice."

The black crows left the hunter's shoulders, and the black crows in Saltwind City also flew high into the sky, as if they understood the danger that might happen next.

"Oh? I didn't think I'd see you here, Skadi."

"Then, when did you mingle with these Hai Sis? Consul Gloria."

"Hmm... kind of bad."

She understood that Skadi seemed to have misunderstood something, but this situation seemed interesting.

"Let me guess, someone told you that I got mixed up with Quintus from the Church of the Deep Sea?"

"Tell me you didn't do that."

Skadi, dressed as a bounty hunter, drew out her weapon, and Gloria also sighed.

"What if I do that?"

- Keng!

The road cracked, and Gloria blocked the blow with her lance, which seemed an understatement.

"You have regressed. Has life on land corrupted you? Hunter."

"........."

Skadi didn't reply, but sent Gloria flying with a more violent sword strike, but the water flowed around the lady consul, allowing her to land gracefully.

"Brute force and bravery, you are the same as before, this makes you taste the fruits of victory, my countrymen, my warriors, your sword is getting duller, is it because of the confusion in your heart?"

"Answer me! Gloria!"

"You have always been like this, full of passion, but pretending to be calm."

The movement beyond the dynamic vision, as if to blow the street into the air, but Gloria was still able to do it with ease, as if she was dancing, and took over Skadi's move after move.

"Don't tell me those riddles, answer me."

Gloria could feel that the strength of her wrist was constantly rising, oh, she seemed to have guessed why she felt that her compatriots were not as good as before.

"It's amazing how you learned to keep your hands."

The water was turbulent, and high-pressure water blades flew out of Geletia's body, but Skadi smashed it with a sword without even looking at it.

"Why not be more serious? I want to see your full strength after a long absence."

"........."

Skadi didn't move, and the surrounding residents were all here because of the movement here, but they didn't seem to be afraid of the battle between the two of them, and just watched there blankly.

"So that's the case, it really can't go on, Your Excellency Lei Wen."

"what?"

Skadi couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard Gloria calling the crow's name.

"It looks like you don't intend to continue?"

"you...."

The black crow landed on Gloria's shoulder affectionately, and Skadi watched blankly.

"No need, Gloria doesn't intend to let me stay here, so I can only ask Your Excellency in the future. I need to meet our former majesty. The hunters have been submerged in the tide for a long time, but the blood flowing in our bodies , let us return to this land again.”

"You know each other."

"I didn't say I didn't know Gloria, Miss Skadi."

The crow twisted its neck, and Skadi seemed to be able to see a smile on its face, but at the moment she only felt that she had been deceived.

"then you..."

"I'm looking for the captured compatriots, but Gloria doesn't seem to intend to let Quintus or leave Gray Stork City, and if my subordinate, His Excellency Raven, will come back, does that mean?"

"She was rescued by His Majesty and she is safe and sound."

"That's great, Skadi, long time no see, I think it's great that you can make a difference."

Facing the outstretched hand of his comrade-in-arms, Skadi felt complicated, but he still reached out to hold it.

"Long time no see, Gloria, I've been looking for you for a long time."

"Me too."

The hunters looked back and saw that everything hidden in this barren city was not suitable to be uncovered now, because the hangman was still here, and they needed to rally and need more strength.

227. The Battle of Gray Stork City (1) Leave it to fate

"The lost lambs broke into my hunting grounds, hehehe... this time it won't be as easy as before."

A sinister smile appeared on Quintus's face, and a murderous intent radiated from his dark green pupils.

And standing beside him, the monster made of soft body and skeleton, just silently watched the message conveyed by the descendants.

The hunter named Skadi was not in the queue of intruders, so he didn't need to care about it, and let his compatriots take care of it.

"Hmph, I don't know if that woman Gloria has followed my orders properly."

Among the three bishops of the Deep Sea Church, Quintus received the most attention and power from God, but this also made him lose most of his rationality and thinking ability, although he was still very strong when he was in human form. It's normal, but as long as that power is released, he will turn into a huge monster instead of a sane Bishop of the Deep Sea.

However, the envoy of the god, Hai Si, who is called the first speaker, did not interfere with the disputes between Quintus and others, because for it, the most important thing is to get information about the god from the hunter named Skadi. Apocalypse, their ethnic group has not received God's revelation and favor for a long time. As for the mutual killing among compatriots, it will not affect the overall situation, and God's will cannot be shaken.

"Dear Messenger, I may need your help later."

Of course, although Quintus is a complete idiot in the eyes of Goliath, a bastard who pins his hopes on the sea descendant army and does not know how to learn lessons, but even such a Quintus understands that it is only the Gray Stork City who are temporarily The mutated Haisi created can't deal with that woman named Ghost Shark. You must know that the church paid a huge price to catch her.

"It doesn't matter, as far as I am concerned, there is no difference."

The first speaker nodded slightly, affirming the compatriot’s request. He will not refuse, because they are a whole, compatriots connected by blood. do so.

"Thank you very much, may the glory of God protect us."

With the full help of this 'Honorable Envoy', Quintus believes that those damned hunters and Lateran people will never return!

"It feels pretty bad."

Standing on the roof of the abandoned building, Telles looked at the mutated sea sages wandering around below. These monsters with white branches like seaweed seemed to have certain intelligence. After they dealt with the first wave, most of them hid Get up, but some of them are still wandering on the streets, but these Haisi, there is another kind of danger.

"How's Miss Alini? Sid Jia."

"The condition is not very good, Father Lin. The bodily fluids that exploded when Haisi died are more threatening than those we explored in the mine before. One of her legs was corroded, although it was not to the extent of bruising, But I’m afraid it’s impossible to move freely.”

That's right, those sea sages that roam the streets and alleys are those that will explode when they die. Telles asked about the ghost shark, and this deep-sea hunter who has been fighting with sea sages for a long time also shook her head. This is the first time for this new species. Contact, she speculated that it might be a special species transformed by the people of Terra land after accepting corruption.

"In short, let's find some medical supplies for her first. Her legs will have problems if they drag for too long."

The part that Telles can see through the peeping eye is very simple. The muscles collapsed and dissolved into one piece. I am afraid that it will be restored through professional regenerative treatment, but it is a pity that this is an abandoned city.

But you should be able to find medical supplies from the hospital.

"I'm so sorry, I was late."

"It's okay, Miss Eleni, things don't always go so smoothly, and we're a team."

Telles tried his best to comfort the grey-faced trainee investigator, and now the ghost shark who was carrying her on his back had also burned his arm because he had just saved her. Fortunately, the deep-sea hunter had rough skin and thick flesh, and the acid from those monsters There was no harmful effect. Xi Dejia on the high platform kept opening the way with bows and arrows, but an archer's arrows are limited. They never expected to be so embarrassed by the new breed of Haisi.

"Go to hell."

But fortunately, Shirtel summoned the fire giant and used the fire pillar to clean up a lot of self-destruct monsters blocking the way, but those mutated sea descendants who were originally hiding would harass and attack while they were moving.

Telles could obviously feel that the effect of his spells was declining. If he wanted to continue to replenish the spells of mental endurance, it would be useless after a few more spells.

He suddenly regretted not absorbing the [-]% of the arm. After absorbing it, he might be unparalleled now, but considering the pollution in it, he didn't have the confidence to absorb it.

"Could it be that I really want to collect body parts?"

Victoria, Letania, and Syracuse are not good places. Telles remembers hearing Texas talking about Syracuse. Although she didn’t say what she used to do in Syracuse, she did It shows that the current Syracuse is the word of the Sicilian lady, and no mafia dares to resist that lady.

As for her rise, Texas did not say much, but said that suddenly one day, Ms. Sicily began to clean up those mafia families who defied her, and it took only about half a year to dominate the entire Syracuse underground. The world, and even the local government of Syracuse, can only follow the Mafia Queen's lead.

As for whether it was the influence of his own corpse, Telles didn't quite understand. Anyway, Lateran's angel was made by extracting DNA from the corpse of a demon king, which made him feel very magical.

"Hello, Lin, here we are."

Shirter briefly reminded Telles, who was distracted, that Telles had arrived at the hospital, and the group was preparing to build a position, trying to find a way to deal with Ai Lini's injury, even though the little girl said not to worry about it, but to find a way first It is enough to help her after dealing with the scourge of Quintus, but Telles thinks it is not that simple. If she is ignored, I am afraid that she will be directly corrupted after a while, and then fall into the path of mutation. Haisi's mental attack and the characteristics of taking advantage of the situation, the ghost shark also clearly stated its advantages and disadvantages.

"If you don't plan to turn into a distorted monster to be killed by us, and then be discarded on the wasteland outside Flamecrown City, dying without a name and a tomb, then let us give up on you."

"........."

For a while, the words of the ghost shark made her face turn pale. Although the little girl had the consciousness to dedicate herself to her faith, the result that the ghost shark said was definitely not a good ending for a "person". It is devotion rather than depravity.

"Okay, don't scare her, Eleni, we will find a way to make your body better next time, as long as we can get some regenerative medicine, your body will get better."

Terra's strange biotechnology tree can regenerate severed limbs. Telles thinks this is probably related to the origin stone particles in the blood of Terra's people, but he only listens to the high-end treatment method of limb regeneration. Dr. Hemer said that a similar study had been done in Rhine Life's laboratory, but the results seemed far from ideal from her expression.

But Eleni's situation is very simple, as long as an injection of a powerful regenerative agent can temporarily repair the wound damage, although she can't move as fast as normal, she doesn't need to let the ghost shark fight behind her back all the time.

Those mutated sea descendants might not only explode themselves, but also attack with acid. Telles might not be able to protect everyone even if he turned into a magician.

"I have a suggestion, Monsieur Priest."

"What advice, seasoned lady hunter?"

Telles, who was rummaging through the ruins of the hospital, heard the ghost shark beside him talking to him.

"You can let me and the dry girl go directly to destroy Quintus's location, and then protect the little judge girl here with the cutie."

"Can it be done?"

Telles doesn't know Quintus's strength yet. He thinks that if he can become a bishop, his strength is probably not bad. After all, he was full of disdain for Telles and Xi Dejia at that time, like a Lateran warrior To him, it's just weeds, which can be cut off at will.

"The bishop of the Deep Sea Church, I have dealt with him when I was being hunted down, as long as there are not more than two deep sea bishops, I can handle it, plus that dry girl, there is no problem, her strength, you should be the best Clear, isn't it?"

"........."

Telles hesitated a little. His prophecy was useless for the sheltered Quintus. He couldn't predict the good or bad of the situation, but he thought about it and took out a coin, which was given to him by Sonia. The collection looks a bit thieves, even with some blood-stained Ursus copper coins.

"?"

Ghost Shark looked puzzled at what he had planned when he took out this thieves' coin.

"Let fate decide, go for the heads, and not for the tails."

"That's the dumbest decision I've ever heard."

Ghost Shark couldn't believe it, this man actually said that he believed in fate at such a moment, but he went to the doctor in a hurry, right?

"Then, let's see the result."

Telles tossed the coin into the air, closed his eyes, and then covered the coin that fell on the back of his hand.

"That's the flag with the Ursus national emblem engraved on it, not the bear's head that symbolizes the Ursus emperor."

Ghost Shark couldn't read the pros and cons of the Ursus coin, waiting for Telles' decision.

"On the other hand, if you stay here, maybe something good will happen."

"Are you serious? We don't have any supplies. As long as Quintus knows we are there, there will only be more and more sea descendants."

"There won't be much to go, the number of survivors here is far from that sufficient."

Telles refuted the ghost shark's concerns, insisted on staying at the hospital, and then continued to search for regeneration potions for Ai Lini.

"........"

Although Ghost Shark wanted to go to Quintus alone to avenge himself, but he still didn't plan to be impulsive when he thought of the other people who were still in the hospital.

Here is the kindness, she must repay it, otherwise she will not sleep well at night.

228. The Battle of Gray Stork City (2) Flame Decline

Shirtel and Xi Dejia stayed in the room on the upper floor of the hospital, while Ai Lini was lying on the bed unwillingly, with her rapier and the judge's hand cannon beside her, which she hadn't got yet. The eligibility to use this thing, but before the trip, the Grand Inquisitor gave this to her, saying that she would use it when necessary.

She originally planned to use the hand cannon to solve the trouble for Telles and others, and then sacrificed her life for Iberia, making everything that followed more meaningful.

But her behavior was denied by that Agor man, and she would turn into a squishy monster like those mutated Haisi, and was eventually discarded in the wilderness of Yancrown City, and was not recognized by the believers as the lord into the cemetery , but disappeared into people's memory as a monster.

She was a little scared, feeling that she was useless, and she was actually afraid of the results that Sister Agor said.
