Gavin looked at the bizarre scene, feeling a mix of tension and anger.
These monsters, crawling out of hell, easily took the lives of ordinary people and toyed with their corpses.
In his view, the words spoken by these monsters parasitizing people must be mockery of humanity from demons in hell.
"You wretched monster! Go back to hell!" Gavin gripped the blazing sword with both hands and slashed down without hesitation.
The elemental power in his body was transmitted to the sword through his arm, and a crimson light appeared on the blade, accompanied by a fiery heat wave that blew the already burning tent apart.
The sword, carrying a flash of fire, struck straight at the spinal worm parasitizing the obese man's back.
Click!
The sound of hard bones being crushed rang out, the exoskeleton of the spinal worm was cleaved open, and fire elemental power erupted, producing a sizzling sound like lard falling into a pot of oil.
Most of these sounds came from the obese man, whose back was charred black by the fire element and bubbling with oil, as if the subcutaneous fat had been burned away in an instant.
"Aaaaaah..." the parasitized man screamed, as the spinal worm's head emerged from his neck, its mouth agape and shrieking, "Guzizi!"
At the same time, the spread of fire elemental power burned away the thin layer of scarlet mist.
crunch...
The spinal worm at the man's feet quickly crawled towards Gavin. The spinal worm wasn't going to save its companion, but rather it wanted the host in front of it.
"So hard! I'm too weak!" Gavin felt his arm ache from the force of the holy sword rebounding after striking him. He had used all his strength just now, as if he had struck steel.
It should be noted that when he gained the Holy Sword's approval, his strength increased significantly, becoming comparable to that of an adult.
Gavin had no time to think. He gripped the holy sword and slashed at the spine worm crawling towards him. The blade, carrying a fiery red arc, struck the spine worm's body.
Crack! The spinal worm's exoskeleton cracked, and the impact dented it into the soil.
"Gagaga..." The spine worm let out a chilling scream, just like a baby crying.
The remaining four spine worms also made a cracking sound as they crawled rapidly toward Gavin, releasing a crimson mist at the same time.
This mist is 'scarlet pigment'. People infected with it will experience hallucinations and gradually develop red blisters on their bodies. The blisters will increase and cover the entire body, even the internal organs, eventually leading to ulceration and death.
In addition to affecting the physical body, it can also cause abnormalities in the life essence, making it abnormally active. This manifests as an inability to control one's emotions, until both the emotions and the physical body collapse together.
With current human technology, it is impossible to treat infected individuals.
However, the mysterious energy of elemental power can destroy the crimson, so those who possess elemental power will not be infected.
"Courage erupts!" Gavin panicked upon seeing this and immediately activated his ability.
The elemental power in his body instantly boiled, and flames appeared on his body. It was as if he was burning in flames, but the flames did not burn him or even a single hair.
Gavin felt his strength suddenly increase, and he slashed the Holy Sword down fiercely at the Spine Worm.
The crimson flame struck the first spine worm, and with a crack, the spine worm was cut in two.
Then he continued chopping at the next one, *snap!* He chopped off half of the spinal worm's head.
Two spine worms had crawled to his feet, but Gavin felt no fear. In this state, he seemed unafraid, and he could even clearly see the movements of these monsters.
He raised his foot and stomped hard on the head of a spiny worm. He felt the sensation of stepping on stone, and the worm was crushed into the ground.
He plunged the sword into another spinal worm, and with a crack, the sword tip pierced the exoskeleton with a crisp sound of bone breaking. Fire element spread from the sword into the spinal worm's body, and the worm instantly emitted black smoke.
"Ahhhhh..." A sharp sound came from the spine worm's mouth, the sound grew softer and softer, and finally it stopped moving.
"So that's how you kill it, you have to infuse elemental power into the monster's body." Gavin looked at the spine worm that had been pierced by the sword and died, and suddenly realized. He swung the sword hard with both hands, and the dead spine worm was shaken off the sword.
His expression was full of disgust; he didn't want such a monster strung on the holy sword, it would be an insult to the holy sword.
At this moment, the duration of 'Courage Burst' disappeared, and the sudden surge of power also vanished, leaving him with a feeling of emptiness.
Before he could even savor the feeling, the spine-borne worm under his feet kept pushing against his foot, and without the power to support it, he couldn't keep his footing down.
He gripped the sword hilt with both hands and thrust it forcefully at the spinal worm at his feet. The sword tip shattered the spinal worm's carapace with a crack, but the tip only penetrated a little.
However, all that's needed is to pierce it; the elemental power within the body rushes into the spine worm's body along the sword.
sizzle...
Black smoke billowed from the spine-like insect's body, its head spewing out plumes of smoke like a smoke machine, and it was burned to death amidst the piercing cries of an infant.
"Gavin, leave the rest to your sister!" Eleanor rushed in front of Gavin, her body radiating a blue light, as if a whirlwind had formed a protective barrier.
"Bless the angels!"
Eleanor called out softly, and blue angel wings slowly unfurled behind her, with a blue halo appearing above her head.
"Ah!"
The four parasitized beings twisted and pounced on Gavin and Eleanor in bizarre postures.
Eleanor stood in front of Gavin, and the four of them were bounced away by the blue barrier around Eleanor's body. The parasitized child was thrown into the air and rolled on the ground.
"Sister, we need to pierce the monster's body with the tip of the sword and pour elemental power into its body to kill it easily," Gavin shouted.
“I saw it,” Eleanor said. When Gavin rushed in and started killing, she saw clearly how he killed him, gripping the sword with both hands and stabbing it fiercely into the fat man’s charred back.
It pierced in with a snap, but only a tiny bit went in.
She was only slightly stronger than Gavin, and her skills were not amplification skills.
The wind element flowed into the spine worm's body, causing its exoskeleton to expand instantly, like an inflated balloon, before bursting into fragments with a bang.
Gavin was taken aback for a moment: 'Sister's wind element is so violent...'
Eleanor stabbed again at the back of the fat woman and her equally fat daughter. People controlled by the spinal worms were not agile and were much easier to kill than those without the parasites.
With two loud bangs, the two parasitic spinal worms were blasted apart by the wind element.
Then, looking at the chubby child who had been flung away, Irene flew over with her toes off the ground. She wasn't fast, but she arrived in front of her target in just one second and stabbed him hard.
"Ahhh..." The spine worm's head lifted off the fat child's back and screamed. Its exoskeleton expanded, shattered, and then exploded into fragments with a bang.
Just then, the helicopter rotor started making noise.
Gavin and Eleanor looked over quickly and saw three black dots in the distant sky.
Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Noble Young Master Desires Extraordinary Power
"A helicopter? Is it the Royal Marines?" Eleanor looked at the three small black dots that were slowly growing larger, and remembered what her sister Anriel had mentioned at the cake shop.
The Royal Marines are dealing with monsters that have crawled out of hell.
“Sister,” Gavin said softly. He didn’t have a good impression of the military because he had seen marines kick away a girl who was blocking their way and scold her harshly in Cardiff’s square.
Those soldiers weren't protecting civilians; they only obeyed those they were loyal to.
Although he is only twelve years old, he already knows a lot of things.
Because he had no parents and no one to help him, and he didn't want to bring blame to the church, he had to act tough outside the church in order to avoid being bullied. As a result, he learned a lot from the adults.
The military will not protect civilians like them; it's best to stay away from them if you see them.
Luo Sheng glanced at the three small dots slowly growing larger in the distance, but paid them no attention. He then looked at the two who had completed their initial growth and spoke calmly.
"Your initial combat awareness was decent, but your combat skills were practically nonexistent. After tonight, Artoria will teach you swordsmanship for a few days. Try your best to learn it."
For two people who had never held a sword before, it was already quite impressive that they could do this on their first try. Combat skills are honed in battle, and with a few more experiences, they can become true warriors.
"Let's go to the next location." After saying that, Luo Sheng opened the Anywhere Door again and stepped into it.
Without giving the two a chance to catch their breath, they had only used half of their elemental power and were still able to continue fighting. They needed to strike while the iron was hot.
“Yes!” Gavin and Eleanor said in unison, then followed Los Saint’s steps.
Irene looked back at the four people lying on the ground, completely dead, and made a salute with her hands on her left and right shoulders: "May you enter heaven."
Los Saint felt nothing when he heard Eleanor's prayer. Even if there were a heaven, they couldn't get in. With that thought, he glanced again at the three helicopters that had grown larger.
They weren't there to protect civilians and eliminate monsters, but to capture them. For them, sacrificing dozens or hundreds of people to capture a live monster was no big deal.
After all, it was only ordinary people who died, not the noble elite class.
“Gavin, Eleanor, let me remind you that the ruling class of this country is not trustworthy. To judge them, you should not listen to what they say, but look at what they do.”
Not all members of the ruling class are bad, nor is it possible to eliminate them all; that's unrealistic and would plunge society into chaos.
Therefore, the best approach is to judge actions, not intentions.
As Eleanor and Gavin grow up, they will inevitably become leaders of the new era, and some of them will certainly choose to follow them. At that time, the war of generational change will begin.
Of course, even so, they still could not obtain extraordinary power.
His extraordinary power cannot be judged by actions alone; on the contrary, it is judged by both actions and intentions, requiring the unity of knowledge and practice, with neither being dispensable.
“Understood, Your Honor.” Gavin and Eleanor nodded solemnly, determined to remember every word the priest said.
The priest is a 'saint' in Catholicism, and what he says is the indisputable truth.
Crunch!
The door closed and vanished into thin air.
A short while later, three gray-white helicopters hovered over the campsite, and five fully armed soldiers jumped down from rope ladders onto the grass.
Bright searchlights shone on the place where Gavin and Eleanor were fighting the spineworms.
"First Combat Team, Third Squad, collect everything quickly! Don't miss any spot. Scrape off a layer of soil and bring it back, then pour gasoline on the site of the fire and burn it."
“Yes, sir,” the soldier said over the walkie-talkie as he landed, then began carefully picking up the corpses of the spinal worms.
Two soldiers put the four dead bodies into body bags.
Inside the helicopter cabin, a young man in his twenties dressed as an officer slapped the pilot's helmet and began cursing.
"Fuck! I told you to hurry up! You still didn't make it! I'm definitely going to have my father make you clean the toilets later!"
"A superhuman! For the first time in our great Britain, there has finally been a trace of a superhuman. You made me miss this opportunity, f***!"
"Even if you send your daughter to my room this time, I'll still make you pay! Fuck fuck!" The young officer got angrier and angrier, and finally kicked the driver's leg.
Even though the driver was very uncomfortable, he could only endure it and could not show his dissatisfaction, because the man who attacked him was Remar Hendy, the son of James Hendy, the vice president of the newly established 'Supernatural Management Committee'.
Moreover, it was a noble family with a history of over three hundred years. Noble families like this would intermarry, and members of the British Parliament or high-ranking officials in important departments were all related to each other.
If he showed even the slightest dissatisfaction, he would pack his bags and become a vagrant.
At this moment, Remar wished he could pull out his gun and shoot the pilot: "If I had been any faster, I would have already obtained the power to awaken my superhuman abilities from those superhumans. Magic, sorcery, divine magic, fuck!"
