Chapter 524 Fernandez's Battle

Chapter 524: Fernandez's Battle

When Fernandez heard the gunshot, he immediately realized that Roland and Cinder had started a battle with the tomb robber.

He slowly lit a cigarette and walked over there with his gun in hand.

but.

A few breaths later, the continuous gunfire made the captain's face change.

Roland and Shandel are both second rings.

These two people are definitely capable of killing a ritualist of the same ring. Even with the power of "Saints", if they cooperate properly, it is not impossible to subdue a not-so-smart third ring -

And to deal with an "apprentice"...

No need to fire continuously.

In other words.

They are in trouble.

The anxious captain ran towards the direction of the sound!
The storm that came in response to the call surrounded his body, and the speed of the dust and mud that was raised almost made a whistle!
'Damn. '

This was originally an ordinary case, and nothing serious should have happened...

Damn.

Fernandez gritted his teeth, and the activated "Secret" roared together with the storm in his lungs, pushing his already strong flesh and blood like a raging flame to make an even more captivating roar!

"Cultists!!"

Fernandez yelled!

He saw it!

I saw——

Saw...

Own mother.

This 'illusion' only made him hesitate for a moment, and then a name jumped out of his mind.

The white veil killer.

The cultist who killed and dismembered Mince-Chloe and Orlando Wilson in the most brutal way!
"Oh, it seems the little flies have a captain."

Fernandez watched as his 'mother' smiled strangely, spoke in a slick voice, and held an innocent dark-skinned girl in her arms.

Shandel held a dagger in his hand and stood in front of Roland.

And Roland...

He leaned against the wall and fainted.

He gave Shandel a look and asked about Roland's condition.

The girl shook her head slightly.

Fernandez then breathed a sigh of relief.

People safe is good.

"All the executive officers in London will be your enemies... the cultists." The captain calmed down and took a slow step. He blocked Roland with his body, twisted his wrist, and moved the gun upwards: "Let her go."

"Let her go?"

After hearing this, the 'mother' smiled and hid herself behind the girl, leaving only her eyes exposed:
"Say 'please', Burner."

Fernandez gritted his teeth and silently calculated the bullet's path in his mind: "Please let her go."

"Say 'Please let her go, auntie'."

Fernandez adjusted the muzzle of his gun and said in a deep voice: "Please release——"

Snap your fingers!
boom!
The gushing flames pushed the spinning silver bullet to draw a thin line, and in the blink of an eye, a flower of blood exploded on Halida's shoulder.

Unfortunately, the person behind her seemed to have anticipated this and dodged in advance.

The bullet should have penetrated the girl's neck and entered the cultist's throat.

"No wonder they say Burners have no emotions. You guys are really the same inside and out."

Faced with ridicule, Fernandez appeared exceptionally calm.

"The cultists must die."

"Oh, then does this sacrificial lady also deserve to die?"

“It’s just a necessary sacrifice.”

The 'Mother' was horrified: "You are more like a cult than we are, Lord Xiao."

Fernandez frowned: "You know me."

"Who doesn't know you?" She held Halida and slowly retreated, getting closer and closer to the dense forest behind them.

then.

He pushed the injured girl away, hid behind a sturdy tree without looking back, and ran into the dense forest.

Fernandez looked back at Shandel, said "take good care of Roland", and quickly chased after him.

This is the White Veil Killer.

The instigator of the bloody case that made a lot of news a while ago.

He had to figure out what "path" the other person was on, and what organization was behind her - Cradle of Flesh and Blood? Mithril Church? Or... Black Urn?
This cultist seemed to be only in the low circle, but he always gave him a sense of danger that was stabbing him head-on.

If possible, he hoped to kill him completely tonight. Some ritualists should die in the lower ring.

They are too dangerous and too talented.

Shandel shouted "Be careful" and watched his captain disappear into the darkness.

then.

He slowly and methodically put away the dagger.

She turned her head and watched the crazy woman who had been shot crawling over on her hands and feet, leaving a long red mark on the floor like a wriggling maggot.

She murmured "brother" and crawled over her toes little by little to the side of "Roland".

Raise your hand.

Grasping an illusion that does not exist.

…………

……

Fernandez chased cautiously.

He remembered many ritualists who had died at the hands of the lower rings - perhaps a bullet, a steel wire, or a table knife.

He always kept a safe distance from the cultists. Once he passed through the dense forest and reached an open area, he would have nowhere to hide.

Time is on his side.

As the fight progresses, he will be surrounded by law enforcement officers or police who have heard the news.

By then, there will be another corpse full of holes.

Fernandez used the hurricane to blow away the obstacles in front of him, staring closely at the nimble figure, and occasionally fired a shot after 'she' turned or dodged.

Not a single shot hit.

The more he chased, the more serious Fernandez's expression became.

There's something wrong with this cultist.

——There is a limit to the "secrets" that flesh and blood can bear.

This is true for all ritualists.

After nightfall, they will absorb the "secrets" consumed during the day from the sleep world and repeat this process over and over again.

With each level up, the ritualist can contain more "secrets".

Putting aside the few large rituals that amplify flesh and blood and the ritualists who possess special organs.

Normally, a ritualist who reaches the fourth ring has the power to continue fighting—that is, to maintain their abilities until the battle is over.

This won't be too long, but it will definitely be enough.

(The premise is that you do not actively build and maintain a "field", otherwise the time will be shorter.)
Fernandez's secret organ makes him more 'durable' than the four rings in the general sense - then, in which ring is the ritualist in front who maintains the image of a 'mother'?

If 'she' was in the same ring as him, why did he let Shandel and Roland go?

If it's lower...

Which "path" does 'she' belong to?
Which "road" can provide such a huge "secret"?
The "Beast Herd" and "Iron Cavalry" have such abilities, but they cannot change their image in everyone's eyes like the White Veil Killer.

Is it a "strange item" that you hold?

Or, a special ceremony that just took place?
Fernandez must try his best to uncover the hidden cards of this cultist who may become a "big sin".

In the battle of the Ritualists, intelligence is of primary importance.

As he was thinking, there was suddenly silence ahead.

The sound of footsteps through the forest disappeared.

creak...

creak.

Fernandez also stopped, stepped on the dead leaves, and looked around.

The damp night fog had just been blown away by the dying storm, but in the blink of an eye it surged back in, blocking the moonlight once again.

suddenly.

A whistling whip sound came from the left!

Snapped--!
A deep mark was left in front of the foot that flashed sideways.
