Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 427 The Rain Falls Like a Knife (6)

Gongsun Ce once had a relationship with Jago Drusus in the Magnificent State. This old gentleman with a hedgehog head behaved very kindly at that time, as if he would come to your house to deliver things during the New Year Neighbor brother.But this time, Mr. Jago was obviously in a state of rage. The muscles on his face were tense, and the anger in his eyes was burning like fire. One could not help but suspect that this person would draw out his gun and start a fight in the next second.

"Calm down first, Mr. Jie Ge." Gongsun Ce rarely acted as a persuasive party, "We will make a plan before we take action."

"Mr. Gongsun, nice to meet you."

The expression on Jago's face changed, from the terrifying war ghost to that amiable man.He enthusiastically shook hands with Gongsun Ce: "I'm sorry we are late. The church only received a call from the Dawn Knight late last night. After we arrived, we did some cleaning work in the city. I think this can purify the air."

"Ah!" "Help!" "It's so painful!"

Behind the two of them, ghosts screamed to the sky, and the miserable howls continued like crows in hell.Men in red trench coats occupied the open space behind the church and planted the silver crosses they carried in the ground.The phantoms hidden in the holographic projections and electronic screens were all picked out by the elites brought by Jago, bound to the cross and killed with long spears.Father Andrew, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was supported by the nuns and stood aside, smiling and clapping his hands, admiring with joy.

"Your troops are so efficient." Gongsun Ce swallowed, "Can I ask what that nail is for?"

Behind Jago was a huge nail about the height of an ordinary person. He took off the nail carefully and supported it with both hands.

"This is the Holy Judgment of the Holy One. It is an emergency measure in the worst situation...I hope that the day when it is not used." Jago said, "Please follow me, Mr. Gongsun. It is daytime now , let's go see the situation of the totem."

·
The totem of the Blade Rain State is not under the care of the church, nor is it managed by the family. It wanders around the land like an unwanted wanderer.Gongsun Ce was deeply confused by this, but when he saw his appearance, he immediately understood the reason for his freedom.

This thing can't be controlled at all.

"Wow! Whoa!!"

There were bursts of shrill howls in the dark clouds, and raindrops like blades poured down.Under the leadership of Jie Ge, Gongsun Ce passed through layers of dark clouds, and saw the crying totem above the clouds.It has a liquid black oval body covered with spikes and looks like an exploding water hedgehog.Its tears fell into the clouds, making a continuous stream of razor-like raindrops.

There was not much room for writing on the water hedgehog. Gongsun Ce stared hard for a long time before he found the handwriting of the saint.

【Embracing fear, conquering self】

A line of petty complaints followed.

[There is nothing groundbreaking about this piece of crap, it is definitely a remnant of other dependent dragons! 】

"The rain hedgehog will disperse into mist and float at night, and only condense into a shape during the day. Its existence is weird, and its personality is even more irritable and irritable, so that the church cannot impose restraint on it." Jago sighed, "If the blade rain If the state of the state deteriorates to the point where the safety of the majority is endangered, I must impose a divine order on it."

When the rain hedgehog saw the nail, he cried even louder.Gongsun Ce quickly drew a silent rune: "Driving this nail in?"

"Yes, and then drag it out of the Blade Rain State."

"Deprive this state of its totem?" Gongsun Ce was surprised.

Jago looked at the timid hedgehog blankly, his fingertips brushing over the nail.

"In this way, the rain of blades in 2000 will stop, and people will no longer have to worry about safety issues." Jago said, "But the sudden change in climate will bring about chain reactions that we cannot imagine, and the loss of the totem may not necessarily be a big problem for the Northern Continent itself." A good thing...I hope I don't have to use it."

The man was very serious when he spoke, as if he could see the ominous consequences.Gongsun Ce suddenly understood that since the saint could keep such a hole card, it meant that he must have used similar methods back then. The Holy Judgment 1000 years ago must have not brought perfect results, otherwise dangerous areas such as the State of Blade Rain and the State of Sour Valley should have been deprived of their totems by the saints early and restored to the ground.

"Is this the reason for your bad mood?" Gongsun Ce asked.

"Partly, the more important reason is that I can't bear to have such despicable villains roaming freely in Hezhong's land." Jago said, "For 2000 years, we have fought endlessly on the northern continent, using ideals, righteousness, dreams, etc. When the Siwon family ruled as a king, they treated ordinary people as worthless. When the church was depraved, there were villains who exploited money in the name of exempting themselves from sin. There was blood and bones under every inch of the Northern Continent. We are all descendants of robbers. No one can say that he is pure and righteous, not even a saint can afford this noble name."

Jago closed his eyes, as if trying to calm down, but the anger that could not be suppressed rationally turned into words and exploded like thunder.

"But all these struggles need meaning! For the success of the pioneers, for the innovation of ideas, and for a better future, these noble excuses are used as anesthetics to deceive ourselves. But what do we see now? Torn apart with bad desires A child's dream, polluting a child's mind with filthy delusions!
Children are the hope of the country and the future of all people!What is the use of the power gained by such evil deeds?So what if you can create ten world-creating law envoys?Even the future no longer exists, so what ideals are there to talk about, what powers to fight for! "

Drops of water fell from Jago's hair and landed on the red windbreaker.The mute rune blocked the transmission of the sound, but the man's ghostly scowl made Yu Hedgehog cry out.Gongsun Ce nodded speechlessly, and pulled Jiego to turn around, away from the irritable totem.

Jago took a deep breath slowly: "I know you feel the same way, there is anger surging in your body."

"I will choose a suitable time to get angry... Tonight will definitely end this garbage nightmare." Gongsun Ce pushed down his glasses, "Wait a moment, I will come back to discuss the plan after confirming the situation."

Gongsun Ce sent Jago back to the dungeon, and then rushed to the door of the toy store "George's Treasure Box" yesterday.He asked Qi Luo on his phone to become invisible, then opened the door silently and entered the store.

The toy store has opened, but no customers have come. The tall George nestled in the small counter, writing lines with a quill pen.George had a smile on his face, and he wrote quickly and with flowing hand.

[Raindrop Knight's Journey to the Holy Grail
Raindrop Knight loves Princess Rain in Water Shield City, but the little princess's character is as unpredictable as her name.In order to win the princess' favor, the little knight decided to find the legendary Holy Grail of Wishing as a gift of his love...

...He went through many adventures, defeated the evil Dragon of Rain Blade, and finally found the legendary wishing machine.But the golden holy grail has no magic power, the little knight walks away in disappointment, and meets the holy man who appears.The sage told him that a cup is never a treasure, but your courage, integrity, love, and all the beautiful qualities you acquired during your journey are the real treasures...]

At this point, George stopped writing and muttered: "It seems a bit clichéd... It would be too bloody to add the story of the saint's injury..."

Gongsun Ce carefully scanned the notebook with his thoughts, and it was just a bland booklet. On the inside of the cover was written "Meiyu Publishing House Children's Book Award Participation Commemoration, looking forward to your next submission".Without disturbing the shopkeeper who was thinking hard, he quietly went out and walked back to the street.

"Gongsun Ce, I think he's just a good-hearted uncle." Qi Luo on the phone said, "The stories he writes are not bad either."

"I've met that kind of happy criminal who deliberately came into contact with you before committing the crime, so I can't let it go. It turns out that he doesn't have any supernatural power in him, and he is just a pure ordinary person." Gongsun Ce said, "The prisoner We chose a suitable place to hide. Water Shield City has a strong literary and artistic temperament, and many residents have the habit of writing. It is impossible for us to guard against every amateur writer around us. Excessive suspicion will weaken our mental defenses. "

"Then how do we find him?" Qi Luo was deeply worried, "If he just walks away like this..."

"That disgusting nightmare is not something that can be built in a day or two. At present, the prisoner has only used that dream to create some phantoms, and his goal will never be limited to this." Gongsun Ce said, "The prisoner before he escaped The last words were 'the nightmare never ends' and he must have plans."

"I guess you must have an idea?"

"Dreams always come from reality..." Gongsun Ce was thoughtful, "I have an immature idea, and I will ask the experts if it is feasible when I have a meeting later."

When she returned to the church, the rest of the crew members had also arrived at the scene. This time, Shigure Ling took the initiative to take over the responsibility of presiding over the meeting. She grabbed Elandia’s black pen and wrote vigorously in front of the whiteboard, as energetic as a A young OL who just went to work not long ago.

"The black hand behind this incident can be determined to be a psychic envoy, and his strength is above the peak of his appearance. His ability is manifested in the filth of positive qualities such as fairy tales and dreams, and he is good at exploiting the weaknesses of human nature. He showed great strength in battle. It has a certain degree of immortality, it seems to have a liquid body, and it is very good at stealth. What's the problem?"

As always, Qin Qianbai was the first to raise his hand: "The prisoner is not a spiritual envoy, and he can't use the power of the totem, so why can he have the power above the peak?"

"Because of the dream and the environment." Shigure Zero pointed to the sky, "The power of that bastard must come from fear. He first incited the panic of the local residents, and formed a vicious circle with the harsh climate of the Blade Rain State. Based on this In fact, he connects the children's dreams in a way we don't know, harvesting fear and cultivating strength through long-term nightmares."

Qi Luo said weakly: "So he treats the children as pastures..."

"That's right. You have all heard the Dawn Knight talk about the symbolic spell before. What the prisoner is doing is an extremely bad ritual. The connected nightmare has become an environment similar to the spiritual prison world. Once the quantitative change reaches a qualitative change, it will cause all this. He must benefit from the ceremony!" Shigure Zero slapped the whiteboard vigorously, "So we must find him as quickly as possible, kill him, and tear him into pieces!"

The murderous look of the huntress made the girls nod repeatedly, and Jago, who was listening, asked the most important question: "How to find him? See how the villain has the freedom to go back and forth in the dream, even if he is killed in the dream, it can only be temporarily relieved." question."

"I have an immature idea about this..."

Gongsun Ce hurried into the room and told everyone his plan.He then asked: "Elandia, is there a way for us to temporarily strengthen the children's 'cognition' of a certain image?"

Dawn Knight replied: "Theoretically yes, the premise is that you can find a carrier that children love."

"I definitely can. I know what children like." Gongsun Ce patted his chest and said, "But to adopt this plan, someone needs to be responsible for dealing with prisoners in reality..."

"I'll do it." Shi Yu Ling said gloomyly, "I already have an idea, so don't disturb me before the battle begins."

They exchanged the details of the plan for a while, and then split up to make their own preparations.After the meeting, Shigure Zero asked the Dawn Knight to stay alone, holding a thick book of fairy tales in her hand.

"Dawn Knight, I have a question to ask you." Shi Yuling bit the bullet and said.

Dawn Knight glanced at the title of the book, and she immediately understood the other party's thinking.

"You're working on an alternative treatment for the filthy fairytale meme."

"As expected of you." Shi Yuling raised his eyebrows, "I want to ask your opinion, is this idea feasible?"

"It's doable. But you need to construct a very, very complex symbolism." Dawn Knight replied, "Fortunately, as a biphasic magician, you have a unique advantage in this regard. I will be happy to provide theoretical support .”

"...Thank you, Miss Knight."

Shigure Rei stretched out his hand with a little embarrassment, and Elandia shook her hand with a smile.

"it is my responsibility."

·
[Last night's Nightmare Paradise caused the sword-wielder to fall into a rage, and tonight he will fall into the dream and compete with the little actor himself.They made full preparations during the day, conspired with the supporters of the church, and deployed staff to various schools and kindergartens.But no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find the little actor's hiding place...

Because it's been raining. 】

The rain is very heavy today, and there is the rustling of writing in the never-ending rain.

The house has long been pierced by the blade rain, and the study has become a ruin like a battlefield. The man in the rain wrote very difficultly, and every stroke fell extremely slowly.The blade rain fell on his body, but it melted silently like falling into a lake, and merged into the man's body.

"This is your study, Skade?" A clear female voice sounded behind the man, "It's really a humble place, not worthy of your noble status."

The woman was wearing a long lavender dress, sitting on a rotten wooden chair, her eyes were bright and soft, as if there were sweet stars hidden in them.Skade put down his pen and stood up from his small desk. He was wearing a yellowed shirt and overalls, like an artist who has no ambitions.There was an odd echo of rain as he spoke.

"Welcome, Pride Puppet. Please choose the seat you like and sit wherever you like, even though I don't have the luxury and pool parties you love here."

The arrogant puppet thought it was ridiculous: "My God, how did you squander your wealth to bring yourself into this situation?"

"Waste the family wealth? When will I have the wealth to squander?" The man smiled lowly, "I come from an ancient family line, and I remember the glorious past, but the glory of the past cannot be exchanged for the current wealth. Slok and Drusus are The pillars of the church, Kalash and Daddarion are flourishing in the business world, and Utimes and Hadrian will always stand in the spotlight. But what about Marcius? Who knows what Marcius is doing?
People compiled the name of the Siwon family into a ballad, and at the end of the song they regretted to mention: 'And Marcius has long since fallen'.Now you've seen what happens to down-and-out nobles who don't even have a house of their own. "

"After all, you still belong to the most noble family." The arrogant puppet said.

Scudder chuckled like a madman at a joke.

"Hahahaha! From the day he lost his totem, Marcius has no dignity at all!"

He walked up to the woman quickly, widened his eyes, and roared: "Look at me, woman, open your eyes! Look at my hands that are full of calluses from heavy physical work. I beg the landlord for mercy." The rented house, the indecent clothes, and the ugly face!"

The man's face was hideously ugly, with rotting gray muscle hanging like a corpse, the remnant of a chemical accident, a scar that will never be forgotten.The arrogant golem backed away in disgust, distanced itself from the ugly man.He covered his face and laughed loudly.

"You look down on me, you despise me, you will never imagine what kind of life I lived before I met the leader. I want to use my own pen and ink to support myself, but what this city lacks most is a damn writer!"

"Is this the reason you gave up your body?" The arrogant puppet shook his head, "At least you are not short of money now, you can find a decent place to live."

"Why should I change my way of life? I like it here, I love this heavy rain, I have long been used to the dirty and low life, and I am integrated with this city." Skade let go of his hand and returned to the table , "Now I have value and I have goals. As a small actor in a troupe, everyone must appreciate my masterpieces. Nothing makes me happier than this."

The arrogant puppet's eyes were full of undisguised contempt, like a noble lady looking at a dirty beggar by the roadside.She put on a sun hat for herself.

"I don't intend to comment on your personal hobbies. I'm here to ask about the situation for the leader. Why did the trap against Huan Yuezun fail?"

"It was only close to success." Scudder corrected, "But the devil himself came to break the game, which was far beyond our expectations. There must be a connection between their dreams."

"I have acquired an important piece of information, which is still valuable." The arrogant puppet stood up, "I will provide assistance after the acceptance of the results, so let's make a scene on this dirty stage as you like."

"Thank you very much, Miss Pride."

"Oh, there's one more thing I forgot to mention."

The woman in the purple skirt raised her chin and gave him condescending instructions.

"The team leader's script has not been finished yet, so don't rush to report it."

"As you wish."

Skade put on the pale white mask and raincoat, showing a ferocious and ugly smile.
