Evening Bell Church.

Chapter 560 The Firmest Faith
Gray had never felt so cold before.

The ghouls who came from the Cold Church and believed in the ghostly god of bones all have excellent cold resistance.

However, at this moment, Gray felt that his body's cold resistance was so ridiculous.

The faint blue flame was like a monster that devoured all temperature and life. It appeared from the glove, spreading across his body with terrifying power, freezing his body while quickly devouring his soul.

"No!" Grai's primitive animal nature was aroused by the desire to survive in the desperate situation. He suddenly roared, and his bear-like body began to expand rapidly.

This kind of crazy animal nature has a strange change. His frozen neck and chest actually broke through the ice seal of the cold flames when they swelled.

And his body also turned into a giant ghoul with a height of five meters in a few breaths.

Seeing Su Ge's expression full of caution, he clasped his hands together and pushed forward suddenly.

The surge of spiritual energy was accompanied by the rhythm of knowledge, and the kinetic energy generated by the vibration instantly accumulated to a terrifying level.

boom!
In the next second, the huge monster was repelled five or six meters by Su Ge's shock wave.

The violent reaction also pushed Su Ge back a few meters to the side of Roland and the others.

"Give up reason and embrace madness. The hidden animality completely exploded, and the irrational brain released the restrictions on the body and entered an out-of-control crazy state." Seeing Grai's state at this time, Su Ge said with a little sigh
"However, after that, he will also go to destruction." Anthony looked at Gray and said in a low voice.

Abandoning reason and falling into madness, the core reason why he can become stronger instantly is just as Su Ge said just now.

The brain unleashes control over the body.

Any creature has great potential and explosive power.But this kind of explosive power is not something this creature can bear.

Just like humans, when the potential is explosive, a person can lift a vehicle weighing several hundred kilograms.

However, the price of this powerful moment is that the bones cannot bear the huge pressure and are crushed, and the muscle tissue is overloaded and collapsed.

Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the form, the brain will set restrictions on the body, preventing people from entering the forbidden zone of destruction.

However, when people abandon reason and embrace madness, everything will be liberated.

At this time, it can be seen that Grai's body not far away has already appeared in a similar state.

Bloodshot gradually appeared in his strong muscles, and the outer fixed bones could not bear the swelling muscles and twisted and damaged.

The sound of blood splattering and bones creaking constantly resounded in the night sky.

"Let's leave quickly, this guy is the most dangerous time now." Connor suggested.

As a senior assassin, he is very good at judging the strength of the target.

After all, if the judgment fails in the assassination, then there is only one way to die.

Ooooooooo!

There was a piercing howl from the ferocious huge mouth, and the huge body rushed towards Su Ge like crazy.

Seeing this scene, Su Ge squeezed his cane tightly and stretched his body: "You leave here quickly, just pretend you didn't see me. If someone sees our intersection, it will be very troublesome. Leave it to me here."

Hearing this, the four of them turned around and left quickly without any hesitation.

Now is not the time to reminisce about the past, and they are also very clear about the church's attitude towards Su Ge.

boom!
With a muffled sound, Glenn's huge claws slapped the ground, leaving a paw mark three centimeters deep on the ground.

Su Ge's cloak, who was dodging in a hurry, suddenly unfolded, leading his body to retreat more than ten meters quickly, widening the distance.

After failing to succeed in one blow, Grai slowly turned his head, and a burst of hot air like steam spewed out from his huge mouth.

Obviously, his body could no longer bear the heat generated by such a huge body during strenuous exercise, and the temperature in his lungs was rising rapidly.

The eyes under Suge’s mask looked at Gray who was puffing out steam with an inexplicable look: “Sense and madness, rebirth and destruction. You abandon reason because you are afraid of death, but such a result will only make you Death is more painful."

oooooooo!
Gray's mouth roared, and his body jumped up suddenly, that huge body smashed towards Su Ge like a hill falling from the sky.

Su Ge naturally did not dare to take such a blow head-on.

Under the action of the vibration and the cloak, the body floated slightly, and with the sound of the wind, it moved quickly close to the ground.

boom!boom!boom!
Gray kept jumping up and hitting Su Ge without hesitation, waving his huge claws constantly, but he couldn't catch Su Ge's figure at all.

After a few rounds, wheeze... wheeze...

It was obvious that his lungs seemed to be damaged, making extremely unpleasant sounds.

At the same time, the mist sprayed from the mouth turned from white to red.

This indicated that his lungs and even his esophagus had begun to collapse.

thump!
After a few weak gasps, Grai's huge body fell to the ground, and his undulating body was already covered with blood.

The muscles were broken, and the bones were twisted and broken. Such a body could no longer support his huge body.

It looked like a dying monster that had been attacked by a group of monsters.

Su Ge walked to his side and looked down at the huge head lying on the ground.

The distorted eyes seemed to have regained some sanity, but they were full of pain and despair.

"If you give up resistance, you will die very quickly." Su Ge said in a cold and calm tone.

Glenn's huge mouth squirmed slightly, and made a hoarse and ugly voice: "In the face of death, no existence can accept it willingly. Even if there is an abyss and hell ahead, you have to try it. If you go further, you may be able to live, and you will be stagnant. , that can only wait for death."

Hearing this, Su Ge was a little silent, and he agreed with this kind of speech.

After all, human beings have been like this since ancient times, and there is a word that perfectly explains this behavior.

Drink poison to quench thirst.

"Why did you attack these three priests?" Su Ge asked.

Gray didn't answer directly, and said weakly: "You have no choice for some things. There is no way to have the best of both worlds."

Su Ge didn't continue to ask, he could vaguely guess who it was.

"Do you think this world can be redeemed?" Gray's huge head turned slightly, looking at Su Ge and asked.

Su Ge replied firmly: "Yes."

Gray let out an ugly smile: "I didn't believe it when I fell into the mysterious abyss, so I abandoned the human form and mutated into a ghoul."

Su Ge was a little surprised to hear this.

He didn't expect that Gray was not a natural ghoul, but a mutation of human beings.

"If this is the case, those ghouls that can be included in the mysterious system should all be mutated from humans!" Su Ge suddenly thought.

Here, Gray continued: "I thought that becoming a member of the family and becoming a follower of those evil gods would give me hope and a sense of security. Unfortunately, as a member of the family, I fell into a trap after learning more about the situation. deeper despair."

Su Ge replied calmly: "The world is like this. The ignorant are fearless. Sometimes, ignorance is also a kind of happiness."

Grai gave a weak sigh of gratitude, his huge eyes were almost unable to open with the disappearance of life.

"You said...if I firmly believed in the...possibility of human beings, would I...have become like this?" Gray's voice came intermittently.

Su Ge did not give an accurate answer: "Who knows, after stepping into the mystery, there may be irreparable disaster at any time."

After a pause, Su Ge changed the topic: "But one thing is certain."

"what?"

"As a human being, you may be able to become a good person."

"Good guy? Hahaha cough cough..." Hearing this childish vocabulary that can only appear in a child's mouth, Grai actually laughed a little happily.

Laughing, laughing, his body began to shake violently, as if something was about to explode and control his body.

"Kill... me, I don't want... it to swallow me." Grai said with difficulty, his eyes full of horror.

Su Ge didn't respond, but silently raised the cane that turned into a long sword, and directly pierced his huge head, ending his painful life.

"Thank you." Gray said weakly, and slowly closed his eyes.

With Gray's death, his twitching body gradually subsided, as if the thing stopped moving with his death.

The body of the killed Grai began to shrink rapidly, first he turned into a ghoul about the size of a human, and finally those weird skin and flesh receded again, turning into a middle-aged man in his 40s.

Seeing this scene, Su Ge remembered the words he saw in "The Evening Bell in the Valley".

"The relief bestowed by the gods is not bloody killing, but divine purification. All filth and mutation will dissipate after death and return to their original form. In the most primitive and pure form, madness can be quelled, despair can be Peace is attained. That is a holy death, a supreme gift."

Clenching the cane in his hand in silence, at this moment, Su Ge had a deeper understanding of the Bell Bearer, the Grim Reaper, and "The Evening Bell of the Glen", and even had a faint understanding.

"So, is this the feeling?" Su Ge looked down at Grai's body, unable to recover for a long time.

After a few minutes seemed to pass, Su Ge suddenly came back to his senses: "Take away the secret treasure and get out of here quickly, the people from the church should be here soon."

Just when Su Ge stepped forward to take away the wriggling brain, a sharp crescent sword suddenly shot out.

Su Ge rolled over in an instant, and turned his head just in time to see Father Signe, who was holding a moonlight sword, staring at him.

It's just that Father Signe at this time does not have the obvious hostility and fanaticism of last time.

"I don't understand you." Father Signe took two steps towards Su Ge, with a hint of doubt in his voice.

He has been watching here for 10 minutes, and Su Ge's every move has been under his watch just now.

Su Ge drew out his long sword: "You don't need to understand, you have your beliefs, and I have my persistence."

"What exactly do you want? The right to rule the world and people's beliefs? Or the knowledge to reach the root?" Father Signe was silent for a while, but he didn't make a move.

Su Ge didn't answer directly, but looked up at the sky and said, "I know the truth of this world, so I won't give my faith to anyone, or any god."

Signe then looked up and saw the three sacred moons: "The truth of the world you know may not be the real truth. It is not up to us to decide whether the world is true or not. Maybe we are just in a fight right now." The same as in a nightmare, but the real self? Has already been lost in the depths of the nightmare."

When Su Ge heard this, his heart moved, and he actually thought that what Father Signe said was somewhat reasonable.

Father Signe raised the purple sword, looked at it and said, "I have been lost, feared, and even crazy. It was the ray of moonlight that fell from the sky like a clear spring and guided me out of madness and fear. Since then In the beginning, the truth and falsehood of the world are not important to me, I just want to protect the moonlight in my heart forever."

Su Ge could not refute Father Signe's thoughts and ideas, let alone deny Father Signe's persistence and belief.

"Even if the moonlight is false?"

"Correct."

"Even if the moonlight is full of filth?"

"Correct."

"Even if the moonlight itself doesn't exist?"

Father Signe's eyes did not waver, and he replied firmly for the third time: "That's right."

Su Ge put his hands on his chest and saluted slightly: "You have won my respect."

Faced with Su Ge's sudden salute, Father Signe was a little surprised and couldn't recover.

"If one day, this world suddenly comes to an end, I believe you will still be you, you will not be stained by filth, you will not be infected by madness, and you will not fall into the magic way and turn into a monster." Su Ge said with a tone happy.

Father Signe put away his great sword in silence: "Let's go, I don't want to do anything today."

Su Ge didn't speak, and his body disappeared into the night like a gust of wind.

After Su Ge left, Father Signe came over and looked down at Gray's body, and said in a low voice, "Your choice is not wrong."

The night wind blew gently, and about 5 minutes later, Archbishop Laurie arrived here with the clergy to recover Gray's body.

Father Signe didn't say much, and stood aside silently watching Laurie lead people to recover Gray's body. He didn't say a word during the whole process, as if Father Signe was a strange outsider who didn't know these priests at all. .

Before leaving, Father Signe suddenly said, "How is the Pope?"

Laurie didn't even turn his head back, and replied in a neutral way: "He's recovering well, and he's ready to attend the meeting."

Father Signe didn't answer, he turned and walked into the night with his sword in his hand.

Out of the corner of Laurie's eye, he looked at Father Signe who was leaving, with a very complicated look in his eyes.

"Archbishop, should the body be transported to the chapel or back to the headquarters?" asked the bishop who led the team.

Laurie's expression returned to normal in an instant, and he said, "Send it to the headquarters and hand it over to Archbishop Saru."

Sitting back in the carriage, Laurie glanced at the corpse behind the carriage, with coldness and planning in the depths of his eyes.

"All preparations have been completed, next, feel the despair and fear I have felt, Suge Sotos!"
