(I need to figure it out...)
On the galloping convoy, the search team members are ready to enter the battle at any time.

Each of them is holding a single-soldier enchantment device, looking out vigilantly through the window on the carriage, and paying attention to the wind and grass at any time.

The northern mine area is getting closer and closer, and they have already left the area under the control of the religious order.

In this kind of place, with such a flamboyant team, it is not unusual for them to be attacked anytime.

But they will not be afraid of this, because in the middle of the team, there is an exorcist sitting there, like a magic needle, constantly cheering them up.

Si Nuo sat cross-legged on the roof of the carriage, holding the [Devil-Slaying Holy Flame] on his right hand, feeling the tense atmosphere before the battle.

The combat group under Marshal Ilka behaved like a well-trained military unit he had ever seen.

Everyone was neat, silent, and meticulous, with a firm gleam in their eyes. The galloping convoy surrounded Marshal Ilka's carriage like stars surrounding the moon.

If a Level 1 demon is found, the peripheral search team will use the barrier device to cover it, and then the exorcist will kill it.

In this way, it can also reduce a lot of pressure on the exorcist side.

However, it was Snow's first time to cooperate with the search force in a team battle.

This was specially requested by Marshal Ilka. In the past, the Marshal himself should be the one standing on the carriage.

"Since one day you will become one of the marshals, if you want to become a qualified one, these are the things you must experience and learn.

By the way, I also entrusted you with the command of the convoy, so just treat it as an old man's laziness. "

Anyway, that's what the old marshal said.

Snow pondered for a long time before he realized that Marshal Ilka seemed to be hinting at Kulos.

"Master Snow, there is a situation in the northwest."

The reminder voice of the search team came from the wireless Golem.

Snow stood up and looked in that direction, and sure enough, in the distant sky, he saw seven or eight small black spots floating towards this direction.

It's Level 1, it looks like it was attracted by 【INNOCENCE】.

When Wuzhu's [INNOCENCE] triggers an abnormal state, not only will the nearby search team find out the relevant information, but it will also attract the attention of the devil.

They will gather from the surrounding area one after another like flies that smell rotten meat.

It seemed that these were scattered demons who were attracted, but they also noticed the convoy of the Black Order.

After thinking for a while, Snow gave orders to the rest of the people through Graeme.

"The convoy slows down, expands the distance, and prepares to activate the individual barrier device..."

A few Level 1 demons are no match for Snow now, and Marshal Ilka did this mainly to train him.

Now he believes that what Snow needs to cultivate is the idea and concept of being a marshal, and he has never worried about the child's fighting ability.

When he first joined the sect, Snow's first synchronization rate reached the highest record for the first resonance, while Marshal Ilka himself... was the lowest.

At the same time, the child was leaning against a Grand Marshal of the Central Hall, who was also the woman with a rumored identity. The old Marshal believed that Snow absolutely did not need to intervene in his fighting ability.

"The demon is under control..."

"[Scorching Penetration]..."

With the cooperation of the support troops, Snow really felt that his battle became much easier.

These people should also be carefully cultivated by Marshal Ilka. After all, search troops that can provide assistance to exorcists during the battle are actually rare.

"The first batch of demons have been cleared, and the observers found new enemies on the right side of the convoy. Visually, there are three."

Snow squatted on the carriage, watching the people running in an orderly manner. Thanks to this group of skilled logistics personnel, they didn't need to stop because of the appearance of demons during the march.

Therefore, the marshal's convoy quickly arrived, leading the [INNOCENCE] search force fleeing frantically.

"As expected of the troops brought out by the marshal, they actually got the things directly, and they were ahead of the devil."

Snow sighed, and then a [Third Bullet—Storm Thunder] landed in the sky behind them, blowing up all the chasing demons behind the search force.

The new [INNOCENCE] is so easy to get.

It should be said that they were lucky this time, there were not many demons around, and they were basically Level 1 guys, so the difficulty of fighting was not very high.

Snow took the crystal of God embedded in the stone that was handed to him by the other party, and after a few words of sympathy, he took it back to the carriage.

This thing should be handed over to the Marshal for safekeeping.

"Snow, you seem to be quite used to this state. I really look forward to you more and more."

The old marshal smiled and praised Snow, while crushing the stone, took out the crystals inside, and stuffed it on a belt on his body.

"In this way, there will be eight [INNOCENCE] on me, and then..."

"Report to the marshal, the search teammate in front sent a message, saying that they found a strange-looking carriage, and the other party seemed to be coming directly towards us..."

A new report came from the search teammates outside.

Snow and the marshal looked at each other, and they both saw the doubts in each other.

"Marshal, I'll go take a look."

Is it ordinary people?
With such doubts in mind, Snow walked out towards the direction the team member pointed him out, and took a look from a distance.

There was indeed a black carriage slowly driving towards this side, but when he saw clearly the figure sitting on the roof of the carriage shed, Snow's expression changed.

It turned out to be Rhodes.

The other party sat cross-legged on the roof of the carriage, with a relaxed and happy expression on his face, swaying back and forth, as if he was still humming some little tune.

After seeing Snow standing on the other side clearly from a distance of several hundred meters, Rhodes was obviously taken aback.

Then he showed a happier smile, and waved at Snow vigorously...

"The curtain is about to open, come on stage..."

... A few days later.

Darkness... There was darkness everywhere. Li Nali was walking staggeringly on the ground covered with puddles of water. At this moment, she was completely at a loss in her heart, and she had no idea where this place was.

"Where is this...? It's so dark!

elder brother?Snow?Is anyone there? "

No sound can be heard, and the world seems to be dead.

Li Nali hugged her shoulders and looked around in fear, but she didn't get any response, as if she was the only one left here.

As far as the eye can see, there are only broken walls and collapsed ruins, dilapidated streets... dilapidated high-rise buildings... In this world, there is only a dead silence, and not even a single plant can be seen.

I don't know if it's the sun or the moon that shone faintly from the sky. When I looked up, I could only see the black mist of nothingness.

Li Nali didn't know how long she walked, and then she stopped, looking at the scene in front of her, her heart was full of helplessness and despair.

It was the high tower of the religious order that had completely collapsed to the ground. There were obviously no living things around the damaged bronze bell, but it kept making deep crashing sounds.

It's like calling a funeral.

What's even more frightening is that if you continue to look forward, you can find half a broken stone tablet standing in place.

Not only is it full of cracks, but there is also a half-cut Taidao stuck upside down.

"Why is Liuhuan here?"

There were countless black robes scattered around it, and at the same time, in a puddle not far away, a broken dark red hand was slowly sinking until it disappeared.

Li Nali wanted to rush up to grab it, but her body was so heavy that she even had difficulty breathing.

"Everyone... won't..."

After finally regaining control of her body, Li Nali staggered forward, but accidentally tripped over something.

Looking down, I found that it turned out to be half of the familiar silver barrel... It was the remnant of the [Devil-Slaying Holy Flame].

"S... Nuo? Why... what?"

Accompanied by the sound of something cracking in her ears, Li Nali squatted down in despair holding her head, and let out a silent cry, as if she was the only one left in this world.

"Snow... brother... everyone, don't leave me alone!"

Li Nali sobbed and let out a painful cry, but then she opened her eyes suddenly and woke up from the endless nightmare.

"It was just... a nightmare?"

The sunlight shining on her face was a bit dazzling, and Li Nali couldn't help squinting her eyes, and there seemed to be a very loud voice coming from her ears.

Li Nali subconsciously turned her head and looked over, only to find a Level 2 pounced towards the white figure squatting in the corner.

"elder brother?"

Before she had time to think about it, Li Nali instinctively occupied her body.

"【INNOCENCE】—Activate!"

Then, in front of Komui in the corner, an invisible shadow appeared in an instant.

The long legs raised high, kicked the demon in front of him to pieces with a single blow.

After a few seconds, Komui, who closed his eyes, raised his head belatedly, and saw the familiar pair of [black boots] at first sight.

Then there was the handsome figure with loose hair and dazed eyes standing in front of him unswervingly.

"Lee... Nali!!!"

For the first time in his life, Mr. Comui, our chief of operations, felt something more exciting than riding a roller coaster.

"Why do demons appear here? Here is..."

Li Nali just woke up, and she still hasn't figured out what happened in this room.

It wasn't until she regained consciousness that she discovered the controlled demon in front of her.

Of course, he was not the only exorcist in the room. Li Nali had seen this person a long time ago.

It is a bookman [Bookman] with only an identity but no name.

At this moment, he is using his [INNOCENCE]—— Sky Needle, to firmly control a demon that looks like a giant beast, but the opponent's body is almost destroyed.

After hearing the loud noise behind him, the old man turned his head subconsciously, only to find the girl who was smiling kindly.

"Oh, you're awake! Li Nali, it's really a coincidence, old man, my bones have been a little loose recently."

Even though she said so, Li Nali also understood that even if she hadn't woken up, the demon would not pose any threat to them.

[Tianzhen] has already sewn the opponent's whole body together.

After the bookman greeted gently, he turned his gaze back to the demon in front of him.

"Why did you come?"

The old man's expression was full of confusion. He looked at the dying guy in front of him, and he didn't understand what the other party was doing.

Although the two demons appeared suddenly, it was completely meaningless.

There are only two Level 2s, and they broke into the stronghold of their black sect with great difficulty. Apart from delivering food, the old man couldn't think of a second ending.

But in this way, it seems that he came here to meet them deliberately.

"Cuckoo cuckoo..."

A strange and strange laughter came from inside the opponent's body, which made bookman frown.

What do you mean?
"Lord Earl of the Millennium, let us pass a message... Coo coo coo coo."

This unexpected answer made everyone's face darken. It was quite a serious provocation.

"My lord earl said that the time has come, the prologue of 7000 years is coming to an end, and the good show can finally begin.

Don't miss it, the opening bell, the actor is you and other exorcists... 咕咕咒咒~"

After finishing speaking, the other party's body became cracked. Bookman was just about to take action when he wondered if the other party was going to lose a fight to the death.

What slowly leaked out from the opponent's split body made him stop involuntarily.

It was a black exorcist uniform that had become tattered, and a piece of familiar stuff.

The old man's eyes widened suddenly, and at the same time subconsciously looked back.

Behind Li Nali's eyes had lost their light, and she froze in place... After a long time, she slumped and knelt down powerlessly.

Covering his pale and delicate face, he sobbed bitterly.

"Why... Snow's weapon is there? It's obviously just a dream, why..."

"Komui...that's it?"

The old man had an unbelievable expression on his face. How did things turn out like this?
Komui, who was always calm, didn't answer bookman's question, because he couldn't help but completely lost his mind.

"No way! That's [Sacred Demon Slaughter Flame]...it was actually destroyed.

Snow... don't you..."

This is a stage that took 7000 years to build. The earl prepared the script, the curtain has been drawn, and it is the exorcists who are about to perform on the stage.

Kanda frowned, and pulled out the six illusions from the forehead of the demon lying on the ground.

The words that seemed to be declared by the other party before his death still echoed in his mind.

This made him very concerned. Could it be that the Earl of the Millennium was using the demons to declare war on them?

This day is finally coming, but although Kanda thinks he has been familiar with war for a long time, for some reason, he still feels a faint sense of uneasiness.

After thinking about it, he quickened his pace, quickly found a phone, and reported what he saw and heard to Komui.

"Komui... I just got from the devil's side...

"Heard the earl's announcement, right?"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the opposite party. Did Komui hear about it long ago?
"I already know about this matter, after you complete the task, hurry back to the church."

The other party's voice sounded a little tired, but at the same time it was very low, as if something bad had happened.

"Did something happen?"

Kanda sensed something was wrong with the other party, so he asked casually out of concern.

"It's not just you, just today, almost all the exorcists from all over the world have made similar calls to me, as well as other search team members... The Earl of the Millennium has launched a full-scale war against us.

At the same time, just as he said...the other party has already personally attacked us. "

Kanda froze for a moment, then asked with a gloomy face.

"What about the casualties? Who are they?"

There was a long silence on the other side of the phone, and then there was a difficult response.

"Just one day ago, Marshal Ilka was attacked by five Noahs headed by Earl Millennium.

We successfully retrieved him, although the marshal saved his life, but he lost his hands forever, and 【INNOCENCE】”

Hearing this news, Kanda was speechless. The oldest [elder] of the sect actually became the first bad news under the earl's veil announcement.

Fortunately, at least one life was saved.

"Other than that..."

Kanda was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect that there would be follow-up information.

So after listening to Komui's words, he finally accidentally slipped the phone out of his hand.

"Snow may have been sacrificed, we only got his [Sacred Flame Slaughtering Demon] wreckage and team uniform, and it was sent back by the devil sent by the Earl of Thousand Years..."

　After thinking about it, it's better to save the old man's life. Anyway, he spent a lot of brains to perfect his settings.

　　Go back and be a normal person!
