Chapter 649 Flower of Blood and Bone·Hunting the Sword Bearer IV
"Home is a name, a word, and it is a more powerful word; more powerful than any words a magician has ever spoken, more powerful than the soul in the most Any sound that responds to a strong spell must be strong - residence is not only a physical habitat, but also a destination for the soul; a room of one's own is a symbol of independence and freedom. 』

呲呲呲呲——
The monorail train was traveling faster than a normal train, and the rapid friction between the train's pulleys and the track became increasingly harsh.
The carriage shook violently, and the window glass made a slight buzzing sound due to vibration.
The armrests on the seats were also shaking, as if the entire train might derail at any time.
Amidst this violent shaking, Xia Xiu sat on the chair as steady as a rock, his golden eyes shining with a cold light.
The lights in the carriage flickered on and off, reflecting his handsome face.
The shadows under his feet spread out on the ground as if they were alive.
A strange dark force surges deep in the shadows, and the undead army roars in the gloomy world.
The vague figures emerging from the shadows struggled one after another to break through the shackles of darkness.
The angled stalker has a twisted shape, its body is covered with scales and sharp thorns, and its eyes are shining with cold light.
They squirmed in the shadows, making low roars from their mouths, ready to fight for the king anytime and anywhere.
With the violent shaking and friction of the train, the shadows of the undead army continued to spread on the ground, and they wanted to devour the entire carriage.
Opposing the stalker from Angle is the one in black wedding dress. She has stood up at this moment.
The skirt of the black wedding dress is particularly eye-catching as it sways. The lace skirt, the shoulderless top decorated with thorns and roses, the gloves and the blended silk veil all look simple and mysterious.
Her red hair looked as dazzling as flames under the light.
The fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven looked calm, and his golden eyes stared at the opponent coldly and sharply.
The blond young man's face showed a royal arrogance, as if he was looking at a moth trying to ignite himself.
He raised his chin slightly and said in an unquestionable tone:
"Name."
The person in the black wedding dress gently lifted the hem of her skirt and faced it. The fourth sword-bearer in the Kingdom of Heaven bowed.
This is an ancient court etiquette, showing extremely high respect and submission.
She held the corner of the skirt with her left hand and lifted it slightly so that the skirt gently rubbed on the ground. At the same time, her right hand gently dropped on her chest.
She lowered her head, leaned forward slightly, and showed a respectful smile.
"Eleanor Blackwood has met the Fourth Swordbearer," she replied respectfully, with an ancient and solemn cadence in her voice.
There was a hint of awe and complicated emotions in her eyes.
After saluting and standing up, Eleanor straightened up, looked at Xia Xiu firmly, and added: "The element I am responsible for in the fourteen-year-old body is marriage. You can also call me the person who unites human beings." adjudicator.”
"Just you?" Xia Xiu sneered.
"Yes, just me." The woman who calls herself the adjudicator nodded firmly.
"Do you know what you are doing?" Xia Xiu continued to ask.
"We are trying to hunt you." The tone of the person in the black wedding dress was as respectful as ever, "Today, either our heads will be captured by you, or we will successfully complete this act of defeating the sky."
< br>"There is only life and death, no victory or defeat." Eleanor replied solemnly.
"It's really interesting~" Xia Xiu was obviously happy, and the smile on his face became stronger.
“The people awakened in the inner hall are not all idiots. To be honest, if you change the place and the crime, and there is no extermination order, I would be happy to send you to the witch in the central holding room. I will be a D-class personnel for the rest of my life, but unfortunately..."
He shrugged, with a hint of regret in his tone, as if he was regretting the loss of an interesting game.
"There is no regret, we are only doing it for all mankind on Terra." The person in the black wedding dress comforted the sword-wielding man like the heaven.
"Are you really interesting, are you doing it for all mankind on Terra?" br>
As the sword holder spoke, the atmosphere in the carriage became more tense. His hand gently tapped the cane, making a crisp sound.
Ding~~~
The air in the carriage seemed to have solidified, and the photos around him were still changing, showing the gloom and weirdness of the Gothic style.
The gloomy sky, the ground covered with dust, fallen leaves and petals, the dilapidated furniture and scenery all reveal a depressing and strange atmosphere.
The scenes in those photos seemed to come alive, and the weirdness moved in the photos, as if they were ready to burst out at any time.
"Roar——————"
The angle stalker was the first to break free from the restraints and rushed towards the black wedding dresser with a roar.
The stalkers are ferocious in appearance, covered in black scales, with sharp teeth and claws, like vicious dogs in hell.
Their eyes flashed with fierce light, as if they wanted to tear everything in front of them into pieces.
At this moment, an incarnation appeared behind Eleanor. Just like the previous incarnations, the deeds of their incarnations either did not belong to the deeds of Terra, or they were extinct existences in folklore.
[Tania], a saint in a perished village who protects marriage and family harmony, and this is her incarnation.
[Tanya] wears a classical-style robe made of soft white and light gold fabrics. The delicate lace decoration and exquisite embroidery patterns reveal a noble and elegant temperament.
Her eyes shone with the light of wisdom, and she held an ancient staff in her hand, with a gem that exuded a faint light inlaid on the top of the staff.
When the Stalker Legion rushed towards them, a huge red shield suddenly emerged from [Tanya]'s staff, firmly protecting Eleanor.
The shield flashed with red light, like an indestructible barrier, blocking the attacks of the stalkers.
The stalkers' claws and fangs collided against the shield, making a harsh sound, but they were unable to shake this solid barrier.
At the same time, the surrounding Gothic-style gloomy and weird monsters rushed out of the photo and rushed towards the sword-wielding man.
These monsters come in different shapes, each exuding a shuddering evil aura.
First, a monster jumped out of the photo. Its body seemed to be composed of countless arms, each arm stretched out like a multi-clawed spider.
Its head was shrouded in darkness, with only a pair of blood-red eyes shining in the darkness.
This is a monster transformed from economic crime or kleptomania in the background of the photo, with more than twenty plural hands or front paws twisting constantly, as if to grab everything within reach.
Immediately afterwards, a huge monster appeared. Its mouth was huge and disturbingly shaped, like a terrifying smile that was always grinning.
This is the alienated manifestation of overeating. Saliva drips from the insect's mouthparts, making a harsh hissing sound, as if it is ready to devour everything at any time.
The other monster has no legs, but grows on the ground like a plant. Its body is closely connected to the ground, and its roots spread everywhere.
This is the incarnation of sin that has refused to work for a long time. Its body is like a rotten tree trunk, covered with thick moss and rotten leaves.
Among these monsters, there was also a monster with parts of its body blackened and burning. Its skin was dripping with burning asphalt, giving off a pungent burnt smell.
A monster with irritable or anti-social tendencies, its entire body seems to be swallowed up by hot flames, and the blackened parts are like burnt charcoal.
The monsters' bodies are huge and deformed, taking up a lot of space.
Peng Pengpeng——
The monster made up of countless arms, its claws were dancing in the air, and its arms were squeezed together, causing the air in the car to become thin.
Sizzling——
The huge gluttonous monster opened its mouthparts, and saliva dripped onto the floor, making a corrosive sizzling sound.
Its huge body occupied most of the carriage, further compressing the space for other monsters and Xia Xiu to move.
Hiss, hiss——
The monster with no legs and growing on the ground like a plant, its roots spread everywhere and clung to the metal floor of the carriage. The ground inside the carriage began to Becomes moist and sticky.
Hua Hua Hua——
The charred and burning monster, with the burning asphalt dripping from its body, instantly turned the air in the carriage pungent and hot.
Every step it took left traces of burning on the floor, and the temperature in the car rose sharply, as if it was in a sea of fire.
Crack, click, click -
A monster pierced by sharp objects, with spikes penetrating from all parts of its body, hitting the seats and walls in the carriage from time to time, making a harsh sound scraping sound.
The metal plates in the carriage were punctured, leaving hideous holes, and the air was filled with the smell of rust and decay.
The monster is carrying a heavy object on its back. The iron chains make a dull collision sound, and every step seems heavy and painful.
Demons, monsters, ghosts and monsters.
At this moment, they all appeared in the carriage.
In this crowded and chaotic environment, the seats in the carriage were knocked over, the glass was broken, and the roars of the monsters and the roars of the hunters intertwined to form a suffocating chaos. scene.
Squeak squeak squeak squeak——————
The carriage itself seemed to be struggling, there was a harsh friction sound between the wheels and the track, and the whole space seemed to be shaking slightly.
Xia Xiu still remained calm and stood in the center of the chaos. The cane in his hand shook slightly and made a low buzzing sound.
In an instant, a powerful energy wave spread from his body, and a dazzling golden light flashed in the air.
In this light, three pairs of light particle wings gradually appeared, and the figure of [Metatron] appeared in the carriage.
Its appearance seems to bring some kind of sacred majesty and chilling air, and the sense of oppression falls on the shoulders of every living thing like an invisible burden.
[Metatron] holds a huge flaming sword in both hands, the sword body burning with hot lava, emitting suffocating heat. Boom - The terrifying pillar of lava was chopped out from the Seraph's sword, rushing forward like a divine punishment.
Wherever the flame pillar passed, monsters were cut in half, turning into black smoke and dissipating in the air.
Screams and screams mixed with the hiss of burning lava, forming a heart-stopping note.
The temperature inside the carriage rose sharply, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur and burning.
Those monsters of various shapes were helpless in front of [Metatron]'s lava pillars, and their figures twisted and dissipated in the flames.
The sharp claws, ugly mouthparts, and charred body were all reduced to ashes under the baptism of flames.
The glass shattered, the seats fell over,
Fire and blood mist intertwined,
Chaos and fear entangled here,
The breath of life seems to be giving way.
The pillar of lava, the punishment from heaven came,
The flames slashed through, the demon wailed,
The charred body twisted in the blazing flames,
Turn into smoke and dissipate in the air.
Rumble——
[Metatron]'s flaming sword swung down, and the terrifying slash cut through the air, carrying a pillar of blazing lava.
The flames broke out in the carriage, and hot air waves instantly filled the entire space.
The seats were mercilessly split, the metal frame was melted, the glass on both sides of the carriage shattered under the high temperature, and the fragments flew in all directions.
The skin on the top of the carriage was directly overturned by the powerful impact. A huge hole appeared on the roof, and the air in the carriage was instantly connected to the outside world.
The cold night wind howled in, bringing a biting chill.
Through the broken hole, you can see the night sky outside, dotted with stars, which is in sharp contrast with the heat inside the carriage.
On the ground, the charred remains and black smoke slowly dissipated in the embers of the fire.
A deep crack was left on the wall of the carriage, and it seemed that the entire structure had suffered huge damage in this violent attack.
In the corner, some monster remains that were not completely destroyed were still twitching slightly. Their bodies were twisted and deformed under the high temperature, making low wailing sounds.
The radiance of the angel shines in this chaos, bringing a sense of divine tranquility, but it also seems so cold and unfeeling.
Xia Xiu stood in the middle of the carriage with a stern expression. Everything around him seemed to be under his control.
Ding ding ding~~~
His cane tapped the ground lightly, making a crisp sound, which was in sharp contrast to the chaos around him.
[Metatron]'s light particle wings flapped gently in the air, bringing up a warm breeze and dispelling the remaining dark atmosphere.
Through the hole in the roof of the car, starlight fell on the blond young man, and his handsome face looked particularly cold in the interplay of light and shadow.
He looked up at the sky. The night scene outside was dreamlike, yet full of strangeness and ominousness. Outside the train window, the dark forest swayed gently in the breeze, and the shadows of the trees were mottled, as if countless ghosts were dancing. A deserted village loomed in the distance, its dilapidated houses and leaning chimneys casting eerie shadows in the moonlight.
Farther away, the outlines of several ghost towns are blurred, and the buildings stand quietly like huge monsters, giving people a strong sense of uneasiness.
The train passed through this dark night, and the scene outside the window kept changing.
Sometimes the world appears completely still, devoid of any living things or sounds, and the silence is suffocating.
Sometimes, the train seems to have entered another dimension. The sky is filled with weird starlight and misty clouds, and there is an unexplainable void on the ground, as if everything is collapsing and reorganizing.
There is a smell of decay and pollution in the air, as if countless rotten creatures have been reduced to ashes on this land.
"The photos and the train are both root-cause anomaly items." Xia Xiu whispered in his heart.
At the same time, he looked at the void around him.
There, figures emerged from the void, looking at him with a bloody light.
Soon, four men and two women walked out of the void.
Xia Xiu calmly looked at the void around him. Ripples appeared in the void, staring at him with a bloody light. Soon, four men and two women came from the void.
The first person to appear was a middle-aged man with dark brown skin and sharp eyes. His eyes revealed tenacity and wisdom, and his face was covered with traces of wind and frost, showing that he had experienced countless storms.
He was wearing a dark combat uniform with clear muscle lines and looked very strong.
"Richard Wilson has seen the fourth sword holder."
The middle-aged man put his hands on his chest, and then bowed to express his respect for the strong man in front of him, "I am responsible for the fourteen swordsmen. The element is social positioning, you can call me a difference maker."
Following him was an old man with short dark brown hair, slightly gray, his hair was sparse but neatly combed. There was a deep light shining in his eyes, and he wore glasses, as if he could see through everything.
Although his figure is thin, he gives people a feeling that cannot be underestimated, and the robe on his body has a somewhat classical charm.
“Jonathan Joris has seen the fourth sword-bearer.” The old man also bowed his chest and saluted, “The element that the old man is responsible for in the fourteen bodies is residence. You can call me the cave dweller. .”
Then came an elderly woman with short silver-white hair, slightly curly, neat and elegant. Her face is covered with obvious wrinkles, but each wrinkle is like a medal of time, showing the years and wind and rain she has experienced.
She has an amiable expression, wearing an elegant long dress, and her whole person exudes a maternal brilliance.
“Agnes Holden has seen the fourth sword holder.” The oldest person present also bowed his chest and bowed in the same manner, “The element I am responsible for in the fourteen-year-old body is education. I am the camel puller in the educational desert."
Next to Agnes Holden, an educational puller, is a young woman with long blond hair hanging naturally, bright skin, and fair skin. He has a healthy luster, a tall figure and a light step.
Her eyes gave people a feeling of spring breeze. Like everyone else, she bowed her chest in awe to the fourth sword holder.
"Ellie Townsend has met the Fourth Sword Holder." She also reported the elements she was responsible for in the fourteen bodies, "The element I am responsible for in the fourteen bodies is health, and I am the happiness of mankind. "The Foundation."
Finally, two men wearing San Diego Rockets uniforms came side by side.
Their uniforms are neat and tidy, and the logo on their chest shimmers, showing their identity.
One man is tall, has a stern face, and has strong muscles in his arms; the other is a little thin, but has an awe-inspiring look in his eyes and looks very alert.
"Karl Castiel has seen the Fourth Sword Bearer."
"Victor Blackwood has seen the fourth sword-bearer."
In just a moment, the six of them took their respective positions in the void, arranging themselves with the judge in a black wedding dress who had already run to the other end of the train. Positioning themselves, they stared at the fourth sword holder in heaven with some extremely suppressed tension and passion.
Xia Xiu looked at the seven people, and then looked around.
The seven people stood in the void, with their respective avatars emerging behind them.
"Seven bright sides and seven dark sides?" He muttered in his heart.
Then, three haloes of mutton-fat white jade were suspended behind the forehead.
Three terrifying incarnations appeared behind him. ,
"Three incarnations!?!"
When everyone present saw the three terrifying incarnations, their pupils shrank involuntarily.
The next moment, the caveman responsible for the living element among the fourteen bodies, that is, Jonathan Joris, who wears glasses, suddenly changes his face. His spirituality uses a special channel to transform himself from the source of sexual magic. The message obtained by the species is passed on to the other six teammates present.
"There is a blank space in the future, and someone will..."
Behind Xia Xiu, [Vashak] stretched out his index finger.
『Buzz——』

[Scheduling Resource 1: Future Vision Glasses
Description: A pair of black half-rimmed glasses. The frame is stained with the blood of an unknown creature and cannot be removed or destroyed. Lenses can break under certain circumstances but can be replaced with other lenses of the correct size without affecting their functionality.
Abnormal characteristics:
When the wearer looks at a person or object through the glasses, he will see a countdown of future events and the cause of their occurrence, which can display events up to two days later.
Recycling: [Future Vision Glasses] were recovered during an interception of the team transporting the Bulgaria branch, and were originally planned to be sent to the "Cause and Effect Department" for research.
Addendum 070-A: Excerpt from test record
Tested by: Dr. Jonathan Joris
Test 1:
Observation object: A piece of target paper
Text content: Penetrated by a bullet in 5 seconds
Result: The guard shot at the target paper at the fifth second and accurately penetrated the target paper.
Test 2:
Observation object: a piece of target paper
Text content: Penetrated by a bullet after 7 seconds
Result: Guard removed When the primer's bullet is fired, no bullet is ejected, and the text changes to "pierced by bullet after 2 seconds." Two seconds later, another guard's rifle went off, and the bullet ricocheted through the target paper.
Test 3:
Observation object: a piece of target paper
Text content: Penetrated by a bullet after 3 seconds
Result: The guard shot with a bullet that removed the primer, but failed The bullet is fired and the text changes to "Destroyed by flames in 3 hours, 15 minutes and 20 seconds."
Test 4:
Observation object: The above target paper
Text content: Burnt by flames after 3 hours, 14 minutes and 27 seconds
Result: The three target papers were processed separately: A was discarded as waste, B was recycled, Sheet C is placed in the office. Picture A was sent to the incinerator, Picture B was burned due to a fire caused by the explosion of the porter's mobile phone battery, and Picture C was ignited and burned by focused sunlight.
Summary: A pair of black half-rimmed glasses with the ability to predict future events. When the wearer looks at a target through the glasses, they see a countdown and reasons for future events, which will almost always occur. Glasses are indestructible and blood stains on the frames cannot be removed. Tests have shown that attempts to intervene in an event often only change the timing, making it difficult to prevent the event itself. Be careful to prevent the wearer from seeing what is about to happen to him through the reflector, so as not to cause injury. 】
