Lord of War

Vol 3 Chapter 429: .Christina's Faith



  Smoke and dust permeated the air, covering an area more than ten meters in radius.

  There are many particles in these smoke and dust, so the visibility is naturally extremely low, not even half a meter. Falling into this smoke-shrouded area is no different from entering a dark world where you can't see your fingers. Of course, because this is not a special field of magic, perception is still very useful in this hazy world.

  There is a long black shadow, like a fish swimming in the water.

  After looking carefully, I realized that this long black shadow was an arm.

  The force of the arm coming out of the fist is extremely strong, because the airflow moves in the direction of the arm, it easily spreads out a blank area with extremely high visibility.

   Just where the fist fell, there was also a black shadow blocking it.

  This black shadow is much larger than the arm, and the width of the horizontal plane is also larger. It is obviously not a normal body part.

  When the fist gets closer, the impact of the airflow is greater, and it is natural to see that the block of metal in front of the fist is a piece of metal.

Black.

  When the hard fist hits this metal surface, the strong air flow suddenly burst out from this point of origin.

  Like the eye of a tornado, all the smoke and dust gushes out crazily along the spiral airflow, dispersing all the smoke and dust in the eye of the storm with a radius of two meters, clearly revealing the two sides in the confrontation and confrontation. With the eruption of the strong airflow, the range of smoke and dust is undoubtedly spread a lot, but it is also obviously thinner, at least not as visibility even half a meter at the beginning.

  The two people in the match are not others, but Sean and Christina.

Sean blocked Christina's explosive punch with the sword face of the Black King. Judging from the power of Christina's punch, if the material of the Black King is not good enough, it is a general high-quality weapon. It is also likely to be interrupted by this punch.

It is clear. Christina was really angry.

  Of course, Sean knew it just by looking at Kristina’s face.

I saw Kristina’s right fist slightly changed, and immediately changed the position of the fist, and then lightly pressed on the sword surface, but it was like a force of adsorption that Kristina instantly got close to Sean’s side. . The left fist hit Sean's right rib at the same time.

  Kristina is extremely fast. It is faster than the general rank powerhouse who is better at boxing. If she didn't use special methods such as alchemy and arcane arts, Xiao En would never believe it. But even if Kristina's speed was fast, Sean didn't care too much, because speed was originally his strong point, so he chose to withdraw his sword and retreat very lightly. Dodge Christina's punch.

   But Christina is reluctant. A bully made a big advance, this time he even used his right fist.

  Her two fists punched out one after another, which was a bit of a punch posture from a regular boxer. But by looking at the howling wind brought up by Kristina every time she punches, we can know how miserable it would be if she was beaten by her fists.

  Even if Sean wants to face Kristina head-to-head once, he will never choose to fight back when Kristina has the upper hand.

  Patience has always been the last thing Sean lacks.

  Furthermore, after the previous ten minutes of offensive and defensive swaps, Sean also gradually felt some very mysterious feelings. He felt that this time was a great opportunity for him to break through, so he didn't mind being given the upper hand by Christina for a short time. After all, it started with Kristina. Sean has the upper hand for much longer than Christina-although Sean knows why this happens, he still didn't keep his hands when he shot.

  Kristina, cares but chaos.

  Even Sean doesn’t know why Christina cares so much about herself. It seems that her dealings with demon believers made her feel very upset. At this moment, all the trust and friendship turned into full of anger and grief.

It is precisely because of this that Sean is even more afraid to have reservations—just kidding, he is not as good as Christina. If it wasn’t because Christina’s mental consumption was too great to maintain the domain, Xiao En has long been beaten as a sandbag by Christina. But at this moment, even if Christina is unable to maintain the field of battle, but her strength in all aspects is better than Sean, if it is not for the loss of sanity due to anger, and frequent mistakes, Sean is not sure. How long can I last?

  But now anyway, Sean is indeed fighting with all his strength.

  The shape of the black king is imitating the shape of a knight’s sword, which is the kind of knight’s sword that fights immediately. It is more suitable for chopping, slashing, and slicing. The weight of the sword body is mostly concentrated on the tip of the sword. However, Sean almost never fights right away, so he has also increased the weight on the hilt, and the blade is thicker and heavier. This is why the Black King can block Christina's punch without breaking.

The Black King in Sean’s hand slightly picked up, and the sword edge turned into a black shadow, but it cut into the only flaw that was revealed in Kristina’s continuous fist attack—because of being too close, Sean The retreat is unrhythmic, and even the punches with Christina have become unrhythmic. The situation that originally had the upper hand was brought into Sean in this involuntary situation. As a result, after a right fist is shot, the left fist cannot be connected.

Sean’s attack was mixed in this connection error—the Black King’s blade accurately hit Kristina’s left fist and forcibly disrupted her rhythm, followed by a long sword. The tip of the sword pierced Christina's left shoulder blade. The next moment, Sean slammed into Kristina's body with a backer, because it was a full-strength collision with no hands left, and the heavy attack immediately knocked Kristina back ten steps in a row.

  However, Christina was also stiff, and the muscles of the left shoulder blade were clamped, and while retreating forcibly, it also brought Sean to keep up.

  So when Kristina stabilized her figure, Kristina’s right fist drew towards Sean’s left cheek again.

  Sean had seen Christina's boxing power after going crazy before, so naturally he didn't want to be so short. But if he avoids, he must give up the black king in his hands. Because Kristina’s left hand had already grasped the sword of the Black King-Sean didn’t understand what kind of skills Kristina was performing, and even holding down such a sharp Black King with his bare hands didn’t show up. Cut, even dare to use his fists to block the sword of the black king.

  In desperation, Sean can only let go of his short body. Escaped Christina's punch.

  But I don’t want to. Christina is also a veteran with quite a wealth of combat experience. Seeing Sean let go of his sword, how could she not take the opportunity to attack. Immediately after pulling out the Black King with his left hand, he flicked the long sword without knowing where it was going. At the same time, he slapped at Sean at an extremely fast speed, and directly hit Sean with a more solid backing. Hit and fly out.

   was forcibly knocked into flight by Christina. Sean, who flew upside down, quickly adjusted his body shape in mid-air. After a twist and turn, the whole body shape turned into flying horizontally, and the right hand sank and pressed to the ground. The strength brought by Christina was immediately transmitted to the ground, shaking out a huge mark, and the surrounding ground collapsed. It's more than a few inches. And Sean also took this to turn his body, the center of gravity quickly sinks, and the whole person immediately landed, once again turning all the impact into dispersion force and shook the ground into the ground. Larger web cracks are formed.

  But at this time, Christina had already rushed over again.

  Only the words of martial arts. Ten Sean and together are not Christina's opponents.

  This is not to say that Christina is more than ten times stronger than Sean, but after coming to this world, all Sean’s mind is placed on swordsmanship, and even his profession follows swordsmanship. And a person’s energy is limited. If Sean is unwilling to spend a lot of proficiency points to fill his skill list, he is actually not much different from the genius of this world, so in the case of losing his weapon , Sean can hardly contend with Christina.

  This is exactly what Christina wanted.

  However, it was not the result that Sean wanted.

  Faced with Christina, who was attacking like a storm, Sean roared in a deep voice, and showed his power without hesitation.

As the prototype of the realm, Sean’s current potential will no longer pose any threat to his life after he acquires the silver body. Simply put, the current situation already has the same consumption effect as the realm-as long as Sean Able to withstand the consumption, then he can maintain the range of force field forever.

  Kristina was impacted by Sean’s momentum in the front, and the speed of the whole person was immediately affected, and all aspects of the movement speed were obviously slowed down.

  This unexpected state made Kristina obviously a little lost.

  But this loss of consciousness was only an instant, and even less than a second, Christina had completely recovered. Although she can't expand the domain right now, for Christina, a momentum is not enough to restrict her actions-after all, momentum is only a suppression of momentum, although the boundary line of the law has been touched, it is not after all According to the law, it may be okay to deal with the strong below the sanctuary, but using momentum to deal with the strong at the sanctuary obviously can only play a role for a moment.

  I saw Christina's aura suddenly surging, and vindictiveness burst out of her body instantly, breaking the suppression of Sean's "potential" immediately.

  Sean didn’t expect Christina’s reaction to be so fast.

  After suppressing Christina with force, Sean had already jumped and flew out towards the place where the Black King fell. After not wanting to be broken by Christina, Sean suddenly felt a tingling pain in his head, and his stature was involuntarily stagnated, and then Christina reached out and grabbed her ankle, followed by Christina. It spins like a top, and after two consecutive turns, Sean is thrown away.

It’s just that Kristina is not stupid. The direction that Sean throws is naturally far away from the drop point of the Black King. Kristina has discovered that Sean, who is holding the Black King and not holding the Black King, is simply Two people. In this case, he naturally wanted to let Xiao En be as far away from the Black King as possible. After all, Xiao En was much easier to deal with when he had no weapons.

   was thrown out by Christina, and Sean could only adjust his figure quickly in mid-air, but the tingling sensation from his head still made Sean feel a little uncomfortable.

  But this time, Christina didn't press it hard again, but watched Sean quickly adjust his figure in mid-air, staggering when he landed.

  At that time, Christina also experienced such a slow growth period-first the maintenance of the field, and then the suppression of the momentum. Then came the embryonic form of the field, which finally formed its own field. So for Kristina, she knew very well what Shaun’s situation would be like after she had cracked it with the force of law, and the intense pain was not much better than the field being exploded.

  The only difference I have to say is that the level of pain is probably a little lighter.

certainly. This actually has an advantage.

  It's just that Christina didn't intend to speak out. As for whether Sean can grasp it, that is his own business.

  Geniuses have the pride of geniuses.

"You disappointed me." Kristina said in a deep voice. She stared at Sean blankly. The only thing that looked good was Kristina's eyes. It was a disappointment, deep and deep. Disappointment. "Why?"

  Sean lightly clutched his forehead. Glancing at Christina, she smiled and said, "Why?...Because I am a lord and a great prince, I am responsible for my followers. As Diane said, the world is not only black and white. There is still a lot of gray. As the business people often say, when there is demand, there will be competition. Not all demons are evil. There will always be one or two good people."

   "Huh." Christina laughed. The voice was somewhat contemptuous.

   "You really don't believe me." Sean shrugged, "I'll just say two things you don't know."

  Kristina raised her eyebrows. He put on a look of listening, but the look on his face was still contemptuous.

  In fact, in the earliest days, there was no distinction between an executive officer and an arbitrator in the Peace Council. Basically, they had to intervene in everything. Naturally, many people were offended because of this-no empire was willing to tolerate the existence of such a special power institution as the Peace Council, so the seven empires and other forces that looked at the Peace Council unpleasantly joined forces.

  The teamwork resulted in the loss of two-thirds of the elite of the Peace Council, which was directly injured. Among them, in addition to the seven empires, there are Deaththorn and several other powerful organizations that are not inferior to Deaththorn. This is also the origin of the feud between the Peace Council and Deaththorn. Of course, according to the personality and ideas of the Peace Council, they naturally hate the seven empires and other major forces, but it is a pity that the Zenus Empire, the Saint-Joles Empire, the Millennium Covenant Empire, and the Emilia Empire The five veteran empires of Maggie Empire are too rich, and the Peace Council really can't help them.

However, these five of the seven empires were unable to take them, and it does not mean that the other two empires were unable to take them. Therefore, under a series of coincidences, the Peace Council easily destroyed these two empires. In one of the empires, everyone including the royal family was slaughtered. Of course, the Peace Parliament also has a perfect excuse, that is, the empire has been corrupted to its roots, and the people have been living in dire straits. This is also the most sensational of the many things the Peace Parliament has done, because an empire’s Corruption directly obliterates this empire.

But also after this incident, the five established empires explicitly prohibited the Peace Council from interfering. Since that time, the Peace Council has indeed kept a low profile for a long time after encountering the cooperation of many forces across the continent, and there have also been more arbitrators. The emergence of a post. What the five established empires refused was the arbitration conducted by the arbitrators. Even in unnecessary and special circumstances, they also refused the arbitration of the arbitrators of the Peace Parliament to arbitrate their subject countries.

  It can be said that the introduction of arbitrators is an innovation of the Peace Council in seeking breakthroughs and changes.

  It's a pity that this plan ended in failure.

  Because not everyone can accept the pure black and white ideas of the Peace Parliament.

  After decades of thinking, the Peace Council made another amazing move: adopt orphans and implement brainwashing training.

  After a short period of failure, this method soon ushered in an extremely astonishing period of explosive harvest.

Because of the purity of belief, the simplicity of thought, and the specificity of quality, the council has many more powerful officers-these people's minds are not complicated, so they are easy to control and can be better executed. Tasks and training. These executive officers, who appeared like puppets, quickly restored the vitality and strength of the Peace Council to a certain degree, and in turn made them firmer in their brainwashing strategy for orphans.

  It can be said that the executive officers of the Peace Council have only two backgrounds: either they are orphans. Either the descendants of the martyrs.

  Because only they can accept the purest extreme ideas of the Peace Parliament.

  Christina, is an orphan.

  From small to large, everything she came into contact with was what the Peace Council wanted her to see, so her world was very pure and simple: it was either white or black, and there was no so-called gray zone. All existence that cannot be classified as white is black. And black is evil. Evil will be obliterated.

  This is what Christina has learned over the past two decades.

  Now, Sean tells Kristina that there is actually a third color in the world. How can Kristina believe it? In other words, she didn't go violently on the spot, but patiently put on a respectful appearance, which was already very important to Sean's performance.

   "Elken. Have you heard of it?" Sean said.

   "Lord of arrogance. One of the Seven Demon Kings." Kristina replied, her tone indifferent.

   "She's dead." Sean said again, "It was killed by the demon that Diane believed in."

When Kristina heard about Elken’s death, her face was shocked and surprised at first, but after hearing the second half of Sean’s words, her face showed contempt again, saying: " The chaos between the demons everyone knows, what's so strange about a dog biting a dog between them. Who knows what conflict of interests is because of."

   "Heh." Sean also laughed, and his voice became a little brisk. "Elken wants to invade this world. She even opened the Demon Gate directly. Even the Demon Legion is ready on the abyss. They will be able to invade only when the Demon Gate is officially opened.... But, this Everything was stopped by Enkos. I admit that demons are very chaotic creatures by nature, but why would a demon that you keep saying that you must destroy will stop another demon from invading?"

  Kristina opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it.

  Intuitively told her that there was something wrong with what Sean said, but Christina really couldn’t think of what was wrong.

  A person who believes in pure has one advantage, that is, pure thinking.

  A simple-minded person, for Sean, that is a fool.

  It is a fact that Enkos prevented Elken’s invasion, but the bigger fact is because Andrew is in this world and is still asleep in his body. As long as Elken invades this world, the first thing is to kill him. Essentially, Elken is standing on the opposite side of Enkos, so Enkos will kill Elken. This It is the same as Christina's "contradiction of interests".

  Of course, because of the asymmetry of information, Christina doesn’t know this.

   "How do you know that the demon lord prevented Elken's invasion?" Kristina's tone was obviously unbelievable.

"Because I was there at the time." Sean replied, "You should know that I have provided you with a lot of information for the Peace Council?... In fact, I have the ability to predict, but this ability is not subject to my own control. Control, but occasionally flashes in my mind, making me feel like a dream. So it is difficult for me to distinguish which are dreams and which destiny wants me to know. Before I get a clear answer, come to me Say everything is fake."

At this point, Sean paused for a while, and changed a more sincere tone of voice to say: "Those things I told you have been carefully investigated and confirmed to be true before I dared to speak. This is also true. That’s why the information I provided to you before is accurate."

   "You didn't mean that the Devil's Gate is on the northern continent, it's the Medusa Chamber of Commerce..."

"Yes." Xiao En nodded, "Even I don't know, there are two Demon Gates originally....Because you have come to the North Continent, there is another Demon Gate, I can only investigate the truth by myself. Sex. But I didn’t expect that the Devil’s Gate was already open, and even a lot of little demons came in. Do you think that with the strength of your Peace Council, you can open up two Devil’s Gate battlefields at the same time?"

  Kristina was silent.

  In fact, the peace parliament is indeed possible.

  Don't say there are two places, even three places are fine. However, the problem is that in this way, the Peace Council will also fall into an extremely weak state. If it is targeted by death thorns at this time, the loss of the Peace Council will be very heavy. It is even possible to fall into a severely injured state again. This is also the real reason why the Peace Council has acted more and more low-key over the years, because the Peace Council today is no better than it was when it was first established.

   "In some coincidence situation, Enkos helped me." Sean retained the truth of certain things, and then continued. "If it weren't for him. I would have died in Elken's hands a long time ago.... Therefore, I owe Enkos a favor. Don't tell me that dealing with the devil is becoming a heretic. I only know that others are right. How I am, I will treat others as I should."

  Kristina remained silent.

   "Is there a conflict of interest between Enkos and Elken? I don't know, and I don't want to know." Sean said softly, his tone a little dull. "I only know. The South Continent did not fall into the chaos of the demon invasion because Enkos killed Elken.... Our world was saved by a great demon. Don't you think it is ironic? Acknowledge your efforts and dedication of the Peace Council, but I think you should also understand that many practices of the Peace Council are problematic."

   "Excuse." Christina sneered.

   "Excuse?" Sean was not annoyed, but smiled, "That's good. Let's talk about another thing.... Do you know why the Peace Council and Deaththorn are enemies?"

   "That's because there are many dark creatures in the dead thorn."

   "It's half right." Sean shook his head slightly, "The other half. It's because Deaththorn has teamed up with the Seven Empires to pit your Peace Council."

  Speaking of this, Sean directly told Christina the earliest story of the Peace Council. These include the joint efforts of the seven empires and the subsequent "retaliation" of the Peace Council. Of course, Sean's unique brainwashing sophistry is also indispensable: such as the cultivation of orphans, the brainwashing cultivation of the Peace Council, The arbitrator has never been able to enter the core circle of the Peace Parliament and so on.

   Christina didn't show any special color on her face at first, but as Shaun said more, Christina's face became silent.

  Whether it is Sean or Christina, they are very smart people.

  And smart people have an advantage, that is, some things don’t need to be said too much and more clearly, as long as they start appropriately. Just looking at Kristina's look, Sean knew that he had successfully shaken Kristina's faith-all this was what Sean needed to do.

   is not to reverse Kristina’s thoughts.

  But shaken.

  In fact, Sean is not sure that he will succeed, because people who believe in pure have one problem: that is stubbornness.

  They will automatically filter all heretical comments against their beliefs, and only listen to the good side. Sean is obviously experienced in these things, so when he narrates things about the Peace Council, he did not incorporate too many personal emotional factors, but described it in the tone of a third party's onlooker narrative. Of course, the most important point was The massacre of the Peace Council-Sean believes that this is a stain on the Peace Council, so they will definitely not promote it internally.

  It's just that they won't promote it, but it doesn't mean that this matter doesn't exist.

  Many forces and organizations on the mainland have records of this massacre, but the people who know this is the Peace Council are doing very few. And Deadthorn happens to be one of these few people, and this is also the reason why Deadthorn calls the people of the Peace Council a hypocrite.

   But these real villains, Deaththorn, there is nothing worthy of praise.

   "Sophistry." Christina said coldly.

"Sophistry?" Sean tilted his head, and then smiled, "Just treat me as a sophistry.... But there are some things that you don't want to deny, and they don't exist. In fact, you peace council does do it. There have been many things that are contrary to your purpose, and the big demon you think you hate the most and must be killed has also successfully saved the world, even... the first mission of the demon believer of Diane, It's also chasing and killing the demon **** Edward."

   After pondering for a moment, Sean said for the second time: "This world is not only black and white."

"You gave me information three times." Christina was silent for a long time, and then suddenly said, "In essence, I only helped you get paid twice.... This time, it's the third time. Peace Council The deal with you has been settled. And our friendship has ended here. I admit that this world is not only black and white, but I can only accept black and white."

  Sean also fell into silence.

  He just looked at Christina so quietly, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, Xiao En sighed slightly: “To be honest, I think it’s easy to be friends with you, and I also hope to be friends with you all the time.... But it’s a pity that our minds cannot be unified. You can only accept black and white, but to me, the world has many colors."

   "I know." Kristina nodded, and she turned her head to look at the high sky, where Enkos and Edward were on the battlefield, "This time, I believe your story."

story?

  Shaun frowned slightly.

  Because Sean is also a smart person, he has guessed Kristina’s plan, but he does not intend to ask.

"Your domain has already taken shape. Feel the pain when I was suppressed just now." Kristina turned her head, looked back at Sean, and then said, "You used to be my friend. But, I The Sean Connery that I knew is dead....The next time we meet, there may be a difference in identity due to different positions. I hope you can be prepared."

  Shaun just smiled and stopped talking.

  And Christina just stared at Sean again, then turned and left.

  Adroan, she is no longer needed in this battlefield.

  In other words, the battle of fate that had to let her in is over. (To be continued~^~)

  PS:  Large chapter, I originally coded three thousand words last night and wanted to update it, but my wrists and elbows were painful, and the plot was not very complete. It was just a fighting scene, so I didn’t change it. After coming back from the hospital this morning, I also included today's update volume and merged it into one chapter, so that the plot of this story will be more complete, so that it will not become a little headless.
