Ember Gun

  Chapter 72 Call

  At the end of the line of sight, the lighthouse erected in the green curtain was already close at hand.

I don’t know if it’s the dream or the effect caused by the huge pollution source. Eve and Kestrel’s sense of time and space are distorted as they approach the lighthouse. At first, the two felt that they had been walking for at least an hour. But looking back, the Luminous number was still clearly visible, as if the two had been walking in place for so long.

But then the two found that the distance between him and the lighthouse was rapidly shortening. When they looked back again, no trace of the Radiance could be seen. At first, the Kestrel thought it was the flesh and blood that changed the terrain, but this explanation was quickly denied, so big. The two will not fail to feel the battle.

  The world seemed to be in madness, the pointer on the pocket watch in his hand began to flow backwards, the sense of space became chaotic, the faint source of pollution was in front of him, and Eve's eyes were full of caution and solemnity.

   "In fact, we are on a journey to death. The source of pollution is essentially an extremely powerful monster, and we are now near it."

Large drops of sweat slid down his neck. The high-ranking knight who cleaned the mechanism was under unimaginable pressure. As he approached, the weird erosion became heavier and heavier, although he hadn't had any hallucinations yet. Kestrel's perception has already been problematic.

  The palm of his hand has lost consciousness. If he could not see it, Kestrel would even think that his palm no longer exists.

The demon hunter has been trained and specialized since childhood, coupled with the forbidden blood and mysterious alchemy, has the capital to fight with the demons, but the Kestrel does not have those, he is just a mortal, and the only training he has received is only It can make him eroded more slowly.

   is holding a world-leading weapon in his hand. This is the only hole card in his hand. Just like other knights, he moves forward with a mentality of death.

  This is what the world looks like. Those who go to the dead have built this wall that separates the demons, and now the Kestrel will become a part of that wall.

"how do you feel?"

  If we say that besides the mental pressure, the biggest abnormality may be the girl next to me.

  Eve didn't seem to feel any so-called pressure, except for her look a little dignified, she was as relaxed as she was climbing a mountain.

  This relaxed state is like a specialization that you don’t know how many times.

"still alright."

   Eve answered briefly, she felt the weird call from the beginning, and now that voice became louder and faster as she approached, urging Eve to move forward.

  This is the center of the vortex, drag everyone into it.

Lead-grey clouds are rolling over the lighthouse, and the shining green light is embedded in it like agate stone. It is resistance from biological instinct, just like animals don’t need any knowledge, but they know that they can’t get close to the flames. They warned Eve, but Eve kept getting closer because of the warning.

  In this desperate situation, this is the only thing she can do. She doesn't even know how many people will wake up.

   "It's all here."

Kestrel suddenly said, now that the two of them are very close to the lighthouse. The chaotic sense of space makes it difficult for them to judge their position, but for now, no matter how big the error is, the lighthouse will not be far from the current one. How far away.

  Take out the incendiary launcher, Kestrel lifted it high.

   "Can they see it here?"

  Eve thought for a while and wanted to ask again. She also understood the weird sense of space. In the case of communication failure, they could only communicate in this primitive way.

   "Whether it is possible or not, there is only this way, and... and in fact, the task is considered a failure here, but I don't want to admit it."

The Kestrel’s voice gradually lowered. The unfolding of this operation was a failure. Before I saw the enemy, the entire team fell into a dream. Those are the backbone of the old Dunling. Once all of their lives are lost here, this will It was a big hit.

  He didn't want to just admit defeat, so he persisted until now, still holding that small hope, hoping that someone would wake up to see these, and then destroy the pollution source, even if it is dead, it will be worthy of death.

  So pulled the trigger, the white phosphorus incendiary bomb flew obliquely upwards, leaving a burning trajectory in the air, extending to the highest point and then exploding, turning into a colorful rain of fire falling from the sky, baptizing everything on the earth.

  The burning can last for a few minutes. This is the last effort.

  Kestrel looked at Eve again and said to her.

   "Eve, you think that is the center, right?"

  He followed Eve’s intuition along the way, and Eve nodded affirmatively. She believed that the lighthouse was the huge source of pollution.

  Kestrel seemed to understand something, and strode towards the lighthouse.

  "Your journey is over, Eve, I will go next."

   "Wait! Aren't you waiting for them?"

  Eve also looked forward to those who could see the incendiary bomb, but Kestrel shook his head.

   "No, I will explore the way first."

  He said it was relaxed, but Eve could not feel any relaxed feeling.

"Are you crazy?"

   "This is what I can do, and all you have to do is to live, someone needs to write down what happened here!"

  Kestrel said to Eve seriously, he was not joking.

   "No... how can this be?"

  These people related to the cleansing organs are all like ghosts, and there is always a kind of enlightenment to go to death generously, as if it is not death, but ascension to heaven.

   "Because... Eve!"

  Kestrel’s words seemed to be interrupted by something. He grabbed Eve and pulled her to his side, then shot behind her.

  Thermite bombs traversed a red line in the air, piercing all the monsters that came in, but they were as many as tides, and they were of no use at all.

  It seems that there is no need for enlightenment and choice. Everyone in this room has to die here today.

Without much thought, it seemed that there was another weird force at work. The Kestrel pulled Eve and rushed to the mysterious lighthouse. From Kestrel's point of view, that solid wall is the only barrier here that can resist demons. NS.

  It was obviously a long distance, but in a flash, the two of them had already rushed under the lighthouse, and the demons behind them followed like a shadow, with abhorrent horror and blood.

Kestrel grabbed the rusty doorknob. He didn't think about what would be waiting for him behind the door. He only hoped that the door would not be locked. As he wished, the door was easily opened, even too late. What was behind the door, he grabbed Eve and slammed into it, then stubbornly against the door, sealed the lock, and then a heavy impact came from outside the door, as well as the weird sound of fangs rubbing. .

   "Huh... survived temporarily."

  Kestrel was paralyzed on the ground. Although he had a good sense of going to death, no one wanted to die when there was a glimmer of hope.

Eve on the side of    didn't think so. The girl's expression had never been ugly. She looked at the Kestrel and looked around the dark surroundings, as if she had told a terrible truth.

   "It succeeded."

  Yes, it succeeded.

  The call that has been tempting Eve to come here has succeeded.

  The extreme cold swept through the hearts of the two of them. Perhaps in this darkness, something more terrifying than death is waiting for them.
