Chapter 279: The Last Moment
Jack and Liz hugged each other tightly, and they didn't have much time left, just like Io and Rose who fell into the sea of ice, their lives were lost little by little.
Their situation is not as good as Io and Rose, at least the heroes and heroines in the Shadow drama will have hope of survival.
Both of them were calm, silently embracing each other, enjoying the last moments of their lives.
"I'm sorry, kid...... Mom is so selfish. ”
Lisi stroked her slightly bulging lower abdomen and whispered.
"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry."
Jack sighed lightly: "With me, you haven't had a good day, and you have suffered a lot for my illusory ideals. ”
Lisi rested her head on Jack's shoulder: "No, the days with you have been the freest and happiest of my life. It's a pity that it's coming to an end, it's too short. I can understand your ideals, and your ideals are to create a world where people like us can enjoy freedom and happiness forever. This is also my ideal ......."
Outside the door, heavy footsteps sounded again, interrupting their whispering.
"Knight, like I said, there's blood here, look!"
The traitor's voice sounded outside the door: "That demonic minion must have fled into this house, Holy Father forbid, it was the Holy Father's inspiration that allowed me to find out the clues left by the demon!" ”
Jack smiled wryly and kissed Liz, holding his rifle and aiming at the door, Liz kept her shoulder on her shoulder and slowly closed her eyes.
The moment of separation has finally arrived.
The wooden door was smashed by a kick from the outside, and almost at the same time, Jack's rifle rang out, and the bullet hit the metal tower shield with a crisp "dang bang".
The guarded knight kicked open the door and shielded himself with a giant shield, and the archmage had already taught the soldiers how to deal with the demon's thunder rod before the battle began.
"Knight, as I said, the devil is hiding in the house, and this is a gift from a devout believer to the Holy Father, and it is my salvation, right?"
The traitor asked expectantly, and he babbled on and on: "I came to the city out of the great cause of the Holy Father's demon eradication, without my help, it would be difficult for the knights to search for demons, this evil city has many secret hiding places, the adults do not know, but I know very well." I'm doing it all for ......"
"It is good that your righteous deeds have earned the Father's forgiveness."
Outside the door, the praise of the holy warrior was heard: "Of course the devout believer will be rewarded, and if you are really a devout believer, the soul will be redeemed and ascended to the kingdom of God." ”
"Yes, yes! In the future, I will recite the holy scriptures every day, I will abide by the teachings, and when I die, my soul will ascend to the kingdom of God and continue to pray for the Father, which is the greatest reward of my life! ”
"Hehe......" The tone of the holy warrior who praised him suddenly turned cold: "It's better to receive the reward now!" ”
After that, there was a scream outside the door.
The paladin's sarcastic voice sounded again: "The evil aura is blinding red, and the stench of depravity and corruption is in the nose, and it is already blasphemous to dare to say that you are a devout believer!" ”
"Jack, the leader of the dockers, I know you're in there."
After killing the traitor who led the way, the captain who led this group of holy warriors hid in the tower shield, and shouted loudly into the room: "Your name is listed on the arrest list of the chief mage, he wants to meet you and talk to you, as long as you are willing to cooperate, it is not without a chance to be redeemed!" ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
He was answered by the roar of the rifle in Jack's hand!
Lever, load, shoot!
The paladins hid behind their shields, craned their necks to feel the violent vibrations coming from the shields, and listened to the metal crunch of bullets hitting them.
"What a madman! Captain, what are you trying to do with that madman? Kill him, the fire will spread. ”
"The Chief Mage wants to find out how Bredero has bewitched so many madmen, and the mob that has surrendered says that Jack, the leader of the dockers, is the one who knows Bredero's crooked reasoning best, and that if you catch him, pry out the secret of Bredero's demagogy out of his mouth, you can put an end to this kind of riot forever!"
The Paladin Captain patiently explained to his soldiers, "Wait, everyone, his Thunder Rod has a limited number of uses, just like a spell slot, there is always a time when it runs out. ”
Jack's bullets were running out, and the bullets in the receiver quickly emptied, and the sturdy steel shield was riddled with pits, but it was still unbroken.
The gunfire stopped, and the paladins guarding the door waited for a while.
"Surrender, your Thunder Rods are no longer valid, just throw the Thunder Rods out and you can live." The captain of the paladin shouted.
Not long after shouting, a stick was thrown out of the doorway and fell to the ground.
The captain of the paladin looked at it, and sure enough, it was the kind of wand called "rifle" that the chief mage had shown them.
The paladins could not tell what the rifle was, and despite listening to the Chief Mage's explanations, they were accustomed to calling it a "thunderbolt".
"Good, great." The captain of the paladin shouted in a low voice: "We are going to make a great achievement!" ”
Without the threat of his rifle, the captain of the paladin lowered his raised shield, rubbed his numb arm, and strode into the house, his soldiers rushing in with him, wanting to share the credit.
Rushing into the room, the paladins saw the object they were trying to capture, a civilian named Jack, who was hugging a beautiful girl.
"Huh." The captain of the paladin sneered: "Have you watched too much of Bredrow's romantic drama?" ”
"This is the end of the quintessential cultist, Captain." Another paladin laughed, "Don't forget to hold a woman at the last moment." Which of those leaders of the demon cult camp we breached was not so ugly? ”
Jack looked at him with a smirk, his gaze swept over the surrounding paladins, and slowly raised his hand.
In his hand he held a crystal clear crystal ball with a metal rod embedded in the top of the crystal with a pull ring on it.
"Laugh!" The docker said slowly, "Just as you see what you think you are, believe everything you want to believe." ”
His other hand was clasped on the tab.
"Nope! Wait a minute! ”
The paladin captain's face changed drastically, and he recognized what Jack was holding.
Small Super Crystal Bomb!
It turned out that the rifle was thrown out to trick them all into the house, and in such a narrow space, a small magic crystal bomb exploded, and no one in the room wanted to live.
"Don't be impulsive, we are really just here to arrest you, as long as you cooperate with us, there will be no worries about your life, the Holy Father will forgive your sins and redeem your soul!"
He panicked and persuaded: "You and your woman will not die, and will even be greatly rewarded, as long as you are willing to tell Bledero's secrets, the Chief Mage needs people like you, and he needs to rely on you to understand Bredero." ”
"Mr. Bredrow has no secrets." The woman who was hugging Jack suddenly spoke: "He just told the truth, and the truth is the greatest secret for the gods you serve." ”
After saying this, her hand pressed on the hand where Jack was holding the tab, and the two of them looked at each other and pulled the tab together.
