Chapter 2652

~10 min read 1,826 words

Xia De blinked. Normally, the righteous hero at this time should give words like "every life is precious," "no one has the right to deprive others of their lives," "people cannot live only for themselves," but Xia De is not a traditional righteous hero:

"Because if I don't solve you, I will feel very uncomfortable in my heart. Although you haven't provoked me yet, since I met you and knew your behavior, of course I have to solve you."

All the muscles on the Death Apostle's face seemed to be twitching:

"So, you are those people in knight novels who think they can maintain justice?"

Xia De didn't know how he got this conclusion:

"Do we really have to have this meaningless Q&A? You killed people to live, and harmed the world, that's enough for me to take action against you."

"But life is so precious. In order to live, aren't all cowardice and cruelty deserved? What else in this world can be more precious than life? How about this, I tell you the secret of my immortality, is this chip enough?"

Xia De took a deep breath, but the long sword that continued to glow in his hand still exposed his mood at this time:

"Okay, I should have known there was nothing good to say with someone like you."

【Night Watcher】 thrust forward, but York Bronte's body merged into the wall behind him. The sharp long sword then pierced directly into the wall. The moment the flesh squirming behind the wall touched the sword body, the whole room shook.

The damage effect of the angel-level relic long sword on evil creatures made the meat chunks wrapping the room feel the pain acting directly on the soul. Flesh then emerged from the cracks in the floor and walls, turning into tentacles wanting to digest everyone inside it.

But this cannot be called a trap for Xia De, because this trap didn't have the possibility of trapping Xia De at all:

"Lagley's Jump!"

He jumped up and appeared in the air outside the building, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then spat a scarlet breath at the roof of the three-story building:

"Corrupt Blood Mist!"

Invisible flesh squirmed and clung around the building, and was hit head-on by the poisonous mist without any reaction time. Xia De, who was falling to the ground, didn't think this move would work. He just wanted to let Bronte gather all the flesh and fight him to the death here, but he didn't expect that although the flesh did gather together, it turned into black light and flew towards the direction outside the city.

That beam of black light was too conspicuous, so that the church ring-warlocks around the manor and Miss Danister and the others could see it clearly.

After Xia De walked out of the manor, the eleventh-level warlock of the Church of Peace who had just led him to the door immediately asked:

"May I ask what happened?"

"There are no enemies inside anymore, you go in and appease those ordinary people now."

Xia De said while looking up at the light mark left by that black light in the sky that was about to rain. He knew what was in that direction:

"You are all ring-warlocks of the Vistalin diocese, so do you know that there is a 'edge of life and death' here?"

The high-level warlocks looked at each other:

"In Vistalin? In the woods?"

So they didn't know.

"The time it appeared there is only more than half a century, so it is not long ago, or the crack was man-made. You go in and deal with the people in the manor first. The undead near the city now are all appearing from there."

He informed the church of the location of the old Bronte family cemetery, after all, the church would need to use rituals to seal this edge of life and death, which was not very active, again later.

After saying this, he wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the eleventh-level warlock who had spoken to him first just now, feeling embarrassed:

"Sir, oh, or Madam, may I ask what happened here?"

"Can this be said later? Since I have come to this city, I definitely won't stay for just a few days."

Xia De certainly didn't recklessly rush out following that black light. While the church urgently dispatched teams, he joined Miss Danister and the others before leaving the city together.

He was already quite familiar with the road to the old cemetery. It was just that when he brought the girls close to the forest area this time, the thick fog had already drifted from not far ahead, and the cold wind that made the soul feel cold had already blown in the forest.

"That edge of life and death is out of control!"

Prepared for battle, the eighteen-year-old girl with red hair tied behind her head for convenience immediately judged. After walking a few dozen meters forward, before seeing the cemetery, Xia De stopped everyone:

"If you go forward, you will directly enter the edge of life and death."

He looked at Miss Danister, who nodded gently:

"I'll go with you."

Saying this, she drank the 【Spirit-Clearing Agent】 whose specific effect Xia De didn't know. The potion took effect very quickly. The eight-ring life ring that appeared automatically behind her grew to nine rings in just a few dozen seconds, and then there was a trend of continuing to grow:

"It feels very good. Give me twenty minutes, I have confidence to briefly restore to the thirteenth level. Although the peak of the potion's effect takes time to wait, the side effects shouldn't be strong."

Seeing that she had made a decision, Xia De didn't stop her:

"Danister will go in with me. Miss Katrina Tabach, you set up rituals outside to prepare to respond to us. This battle is the last battle with Bronte. This time, no matter what, we can't let it run away!"

The witch's followers nodded in agreement, so Xia De held the red-haired girl's hand, the glowing long sword slashed through the thick fog, and the two entered the place where the fog was surging. And the "Red Moon Witch," even if cursed, had a soul strength far stronger than "Miss Owl," so although she showed some discomfort, it didn't affect the battle.

The two held hands to prevent getting lost. After a few steps forward, they came to the dilapidated old cemetery of the Bronte family covered by thick fog and dead branches.

"Are we going in?"

The red-haired girl's voice in the fog also sounded quite low, and Xia De shook his head with a solemn expression:

"I don't think we need to go in. Three, two, one."

With a bang, the earth shook, and accompanied by a loud noise that shouldn't have appeared in the edge of life and death, a black fist the size of a mountain shattered the main body of the cemetery and stretched out of the ground.

In the continuous rumbling sound, the terrifying giant figure crawled out from the ground. This time it was different from the behemoth that appeared in the coffin as a phantom. This time the thing was a real entity.

Even if the thick fog covered most of its appearance, Xia De could still see black flesh flowing like liquid on its body surface. The body was no longer made of solid flesh, but a terrible semi-liquid formed by smashing flesh and sticking it together.

Just the terrifying resentment and breath of death when it crawled out from the ground made Xia De and Miss Danister feel suffocated, and this was just a huge body prepared by the Death Apostle for himself purely for fighting since 1821.

The flesh came from the corpses of those who died unjustly, and the resentment of the victims became the murderer's power.

But this was not over yet. As most of its body probed out of the ground, the pitch-black giant looked up and roared at the "world," and all the spirits in the entire edge of life and death became restless. The invisible suction force pulled the resentment spirits towards the giant, and then one by one, the wailing souls were all sucked into the black giant's mouth.

"A powerful flesh body with flesh distortion, plus the powerful soul obtained by absorbing the undead... You are right, if this kind of thing is not solved in time, it will destroy the whole world sooner or later."

Miss Danister's statement was not an exaggeration. The Death Apostle who had existed for more than sixty years could do such a thing. And if its existence time exceeded a hundred years, Xia De might have already called the guardians of the earth, Mr. Ptolemy Albert, and Grace and Helen over.

And while those countless souls were absorbed by the black giant, even the thick fog in the "edge of life and death" began to become thin. The giant's body became larger and larger, and at the same time, the flesh liquid that was originally flowing on the surface of the body gradually solidified into ferocious human faces that were semi-solidified.

It didn't attack Xia De immediately, but stood in the fog and finally asked:

"Return my coffin to me! I'll give you one last chance!"

At this time, there was no need for communication. Xia De nodded to the red-haired girl beside him, and then jumped up and threw a huge light wheel. The black flesh giant raised its hand to pinch the light wheel. Pure soul power could not be purified by the silver moon. As it exerted force violently, the light wheel was actually pinched into fragments:

"Do you think I would have no precautions against you after seeing your moonlight thirty-three years ago?"

"Very good, it seems you haven't wasted these thirty-plus years of preparation."

The huge three-ring life ring floating behind the black giant was also dyed black. Its right hand opened, and the instant-death light beam swept towards Xia De and Miss Danister like a torrent.

Xia De stepped forward and blocked in front of the red-haired girl. After a neigh, the huge silver eyes rose from the ground like the moon, and then the magnificent Moonlight Dragon stood up from the thin fog.

The scales flashing with silver moonlight shone in the fog. The giant dragon blocked the instant-death light beam in front of the red-haired girl, and then opened its mouth to spit out a silver light flow, but it was blocked by the soul barrier opened by the black giant.

The giant dragon spread its wings and flew into the sky, and then dived towards the giant and collided with it. In the loud bang, the earth in the fog was shaking, but the battle between the two behemoths ended briefly with the dragon being thrown into the sky.
