Arya Dickinson awoke in the darkness.
"...Where are you? Am I here to save you?" came a somewhat distant voice.
"Who's calling me?"
Hearing another sound, Aaliyah's eyes widened: was it her brother's voice?
"Am I dreaming?!"
She woke up a lot in an instant, only to realize that her hands and feet were tied up, and a towel was tied around her mouth, making her unable to make a sound.
Sean Dickinson's voice traveled through the floors and reached her ears visibly.
"Wuwu...wuwu..." The girl could only respond to Sean's cry in a vague voice.
…
Sean was just about to walk up to the attic when he suddenly felt warm in his abdomen.
The Crimson Tie relayed Olivia's condition - she was injured.
Sean was startled and ran to the window. He saw that something seemed to have changed in Kennedy at this time.
His eyes turned black, his whole body exuded the ancient aura of the Forgotten Wasteland, and the black crystal thorns on his arms became particularly rough and violent...
The priest seemed to have sacrificed something, which was more powerful and...directly supported by the god he believed in.
"Damn it, how many cards does he have..." Sean cursed, "What kind of monster is he?!"
He gave up his plan to find Aaliyah now - if his teammates were killed by Kennedy, even if he found Aaliyah, he would not be able to take her away from here alive.
"Destroy the enemy first!"
With this in mind, Sean loaded the Mauser rifle in his hand and aimed it at Kennedy.
One shot!
Downstairs, the black priest's black eyes instantly turned to the window upstairs. The rifle bullets were embedded in the black glass in front of his face, creating white cracks.
Kennedy's black whip-like arm swung toward the second floor, and thick black crystal spines suddenly proliferated, destroying the entire second floor like a rough black train!
Before Sean was stabbed by Sombra, he had already swung his vicious claws towards the floor, causing him to fall into the first floor.
In the ruins of wood, Sean's whole body ached.
Kennedy walked towards Sean with a crazy smile on his pale face.
Moonlight's spiritual power has bottomed out, and he realizes the huge danger and suddenly starts playing the "Ghost Overture" from "Unknown Nocturne".
The crescent moon, the dead tree, the crow, the pianist... together played a sad and lonely melody.
A golden apple coiled with snake bones rises from the underworld.
That treasure belonging to the underworld, the soul that nourished Moonlight, caused his spiritual power to rise rapidly.
In the desolate cemetery, the nameless dead were lured by the golden apples and climbed out of the black scorched earth.
With only the bones left, they saw someone intruding into this cemetery that did not belong to the world of the living. They stretched out their hands like dry wood and entangled the intruder who disturbed their sleep.
Kennedy turned around and looked at the withered bones on the ground that had been turned into music. He hugged his legs tightly and said with a smile: "Interesting music."
Moonlight·1902's playing has completely entered a state of selflessness. He seems to be standing in the wind, his arms flying up, his fingers jumping like bright lightning, squandering his spiritual power wantonly...
As the interlude of "Untitled Nocturne", he once again played a gust of wind.
Different from before, the surging wind became more vast and desolate, as if it wanted to sweep across the boundless wasteland!
Kennedy's face became serious, and he waved his hand suddenly, and a piece of rough but extremely thick black glass protected him.
Through the twisted black glass, Kennedy watched the wind blow away;
A rushing wind exhausted the spiritual power of the moonlight.
The wind stopped and the glass was chopped to pieces.
The Mauser rifle in Sean's hand fired again, and there was only a clanging sound when it hit Kennedy's chest.
"When God is with me, do you think mortal weapons can hurt me?"
Kennedy's eyes flashed fiercely: "Farewell, Mr. Dickinson!"
Crystal thorns that grew violently like black ice spread out.
"You can't die." A brass body stood in front of Sean without any delay.
Her abdomen was now damaged, exposing the delicate components that were originally hidden inside her body.
The black crystal thorns penetrated her body, and the ice crystals continued to proliferate and pierce, damaging the structure of the finely crafted girl.
The moment Olivia blocked it, Sean threw the Holy Judgment Silver Coin into the air.
The black priest's eyes looked doubtfully at the silver coin spinning in the air.
Half-crouching behind Olivia Wind Chime, Sean saw the moment when the crosshair, the silver coin and the target were aligned.
The bullet wrapped with spiritual essence is fired!
After the gunshot, there was a sound as clear as starlight.
The bullet containing the power of the Holy Judgment hit Kennedy's forehead, a diamond-shaped halo broke out, and the arrogant black priest let out an inhuman scream.
Kennedy was half kneeling on the ground in pain, white smoke rising above his head, and his face was temporarily blurred.
Sean put down his empty rifle, took out his revolver, and stood in front of Olivia.
A shot from the Holy Judgment obviously failed to incapacitate Kennedy, so Sean inspired his divine roots and pulled the trigger.
The first bullet contained the vicious meaning coming from the corpse of the witch, and the rusty trajectory went straight into the left shoulder.
The second shot, the sorrowful mist of the Elegy Twins, filled with sad and red bullets, hit his chest.
The third shot, the terrifying shadow of the City of Two Suns, the bullet trailed a trail of black shadow, hitting the ribs...
As the bullet hit, the black priest half-knelt on the ground, sometimes howling in pain, sometimes feeling inexplicable grief, sometimes shivering...
Finally, Naija, who had suffered too much damage, withdrew. Kennedy's eyes were no longer pure black, and he sat down on the ground slumped back to his mortal body.
But his eyes remained calm, without any reluctance or panic at defeat...
In other words, he simply didn't recognize that this was the end.
Kennedy's hoarse voice revealed a ruthless tone: "Free her, Lydia."
Lydia, who was flanked by two explorers, closed her eyes for a moment.
The spiritual essence that spread out of her was instantly dyed with a dreamy dark green color, shining with a terrifying cross light.
The scarred girl floated in the air, her temperament completely changed. She seemed to become detached yet violent, as if she were a god who had descended into the world.
Evan and Doug were shocked by her ectoplasmic explosion and took a few steps back.
When Lydia opened her eyes again, they were like bright green stars, and the cross on her forehead flashed, illuminating the entire neighborhood...
The convoy of the Patton family and the Shepherd Dog follow-up troops were attracted by this sky-high light and the spiritual power that emptied everything like a huge wave, and were coming at full speed.
"Sean, you...worked very hard, but you still can't win this round." Kennedy has countless tiny spiders on his body patching up his wounds - Naiya's godhead has withstood those fatal injuries, and he is still only weak now , "In this era, it is impossible for the gods to do whatever they want, and it is even more ridiculous for you and me..."
"Let's go!" Charles Kennedy snapped his fingers, and the sound of broken windows came from the third floor of the wooden house.
Sean saw Tom, the evil spirit in the rain, carrying Benjamin in a white suit and evacuating away into the distance. Benjamin is still in a coma.
A man with obvious bullet holes in his body was carrying Aaliyah, who was restrained. The man looked coldly at the Mauser rifle in Sean's hand.
Unbeknownst to Sean, his sister's long hair had been cut short.
Her medium-length hair was now hanging loosely on her shoulders.
She was wearing an ill-fitting dress, her round face was dirty, and tears washed down her face with bright streaks.
Sean ignored Kennedy who was leaving and ran straight to Aaliyah.
"Aliya!"
What he didn't see, the moonlight, Ellie, Ivan and Doug all saw it.
The miracle that Lidia just performed made an indescribable and vast dream blend into reality.
The sky is no longer a night sky with a few thin clouds floating...
But the ocean is hanging upside down.
The waves surged in the air, making the everlasting sound of ocean waves.
Aaliyah raised her head and saw Sean. His mouth was strangled by a strip of cloth, and he kept making whimpering sounds, with tears pouring down his face.
In the sky, things that sank in the sea were constantly being dumped out.
A rusty diving bell fell out of the sea and smashed the wooden house next to Sean.
In the distance, a steel sunken ship covered with barnacles and seaweed crashed onto the street with the sound of metal breaking, blocking the oncoming convoy.
The statue of Dagon fell, and the old blue whale landed.
Tuna, coral, shells, rotten wooden masts... The sea seemed to return everything to the earth, and the sky began to rain sunken objects.
But Sean had no idea that the top of his head had turned into a crazy upside-down ocean.
He just ran towards Aaliyah.
The ectoplasm hook hit the fence, and Sean threw himself more than ten meters away.
My sister is not far ahead.
Everything seemed to slow down.
Sean's hand reached for Aaliyah's outstretched hand.
An arm with a tattoo of a filthy angel grabbed Sean's wrist from the side.
Kennedy looked at Sean with a determined look on his face and smiled: "The best revenge is not to kill you...
"It makes you forget everything about your sister...and the meaning of your pursuit."
Charles Kennedy smiled, a white light flashing in his eyes.
Aaliyah, who was being carried by the resurrected gunman, kept her hand outstretched. Seeing her brother's eyes turning white, he stopped and held his outstretched hand palely, his face gradually becoming confused.
