Chapter 315 Final Report
In the western suburbs of Tivian, by the Moon River, in the dark night, the priest Anrethius and the captain of the hunters, Edmund, were dealing with the giant water snake that Smith had just summoned, intending to quickly capture Smith who was still in the villa after dealing with the water snake.
At this moment in the villa, in the dilapidated secret room, Smith, with his weak body, launched a final burst. He rushed to Davic before he could shoot, bit the traitor's throat with his mouth, and ended his life.
Tasting the traitor's blood, Smith's expression couldn't help but relax a little, but what he didn't expect was that Davik, who was bitten in the vitals in front of him, did not fall down immediately. Instead, he stood firm and pulled out a rapier from behind, stabbing it straight at a close distance, directly piercing his chest.
Seeing that the traitor in front of him still had room to fight back, Smith was shocked and immediately prepared to tear the man in front of him to pieces with a few more blows. He didn't care about the wound that went through his chest. Anyway, his heart was not injured. As a "cup" of chalk, he could completely ignore this little injury.
However, just as he was about to continue, he immediately felt something was wrong. He found that his body was abnormal. The "cup" in his body was flowing rapidly, flowing out of the wound on his chest! Then, Smith looked down sharply, and saw the thin sword inserted into his chest at a close distance. In the flickering firelight in the secret room, he saw the inscription engraved on the sword.
"Afterbirth...Chili?! How...how could you have such a thing! Something from the Grand Council!" Smith said in disbelief with his eyes wide open, as if he was extremely shocked by the appearance of the sword in Davik's hand.
The Heart-Eating Staff Sword can only devour the "cup" in the body of a weak person, and at this moment, he was weak due to the previous battle. He was so weak that the "cup" in his body could be devoured by the Heart-Eating Staff Sword. Feeling the rapid flow of the "cup" in his body, Smith immediately reacted from the shock of seeing the rapier at the critical moment, and directly reached out to grab Davik, and then tore it apart with all his strength. The arm holding the sword was torn off, and most of the body was thrown directly into the sea of fire in the distance.
Then, Smith wanted to pull out the staff sword stuck in his chest that was constantly devouring the "cup" in his body. But at this moment, countless black shadows attacked him, lay on him, grabbed his hands, and made him unable to move.
"What!"
The imprisoned Smith looked around, and was surprised to find that the beastmen who were holding him were black ape-like beastmen! They were the beastmen that had died in the battle with Anrethius and Edmund. Now they all moved again, suppressing him and preventing him from drawing his sword.
"Meat...Puppet...!!"
Faced with this situation, Smith gritted his teeth and spoke. Seeing these meat puppets, he finally understood that there was an invisible hand manipulating the situation on his side from the beginning. Everything that happened now seemed to be secretly controlled by a certain will. He and even those Crusade Knights and Hunters outside might be pawns!
Restrained by his former puppet, Smith tried hard to break free, but he was so weak that the "cup" in his body continued to lose power. As soon as he could shake off one beastman, another one would immediately take his place, biting the already wounded Smith with its claws and mouth. In order to avoid further trouble, Dorothy let them start biting directly at the vital parts. With the "cup" being constantly extracted and his body suppressed, Smith was completely unable to move.
Finally, Smith's breathing became rapid, he knelt on the ground with a pale face, and finally he collapsed, and finally he died with his eyes wide open in the bite of the beastman corpse. After his death, the Heart-Eating Staff Sword inserted in his chest also stopped absorbing the "cup", and the huge ruby on the hilt was now shining with a wandering light.
What the Heart-Eating Staff Sword needed was a more lively "cup", so it would not absorb the "cup" from the corpse. At this time, there was still a little bit of "cup" left in Smith's body, which prevented his corpse from directly turning into a mummy, but retained its general appearance.
"Huh... He's finally dead..."
In the carriage in the distance, Dorothy, who was watching the situation in the secret room from the perspective of the corpse, breathed a sigh of relief. The little girl was seriously injured and weak, and it took her so long to die. It can only be said that the vitality of the Cretaceous "cup" is really strong.
Including Alex and Claudius before, there have been three Cretaceous people who died directly or indirectly at the hands of Dorothy in the few months since they came to Tivian.
Chihiro's free novel "Skirt 25", "59", "5", 3, 0, ..0 Of course, this is not to say that killing a white rank is easy. Dorothy cannot defeat a white rank head-on. Among the three dead white rank, Alex and Smith borrowed the power of the church, the Security Bureau and even Adele, while Claudius was killed after careful calculation and preparation beforehand, and most of the combat power of the Rosicrucian was dispatched, which consumed a lot of precious resources.
"It's a pity that the two werewolves from the Wolf Blood Society spent all their wealth before they died, and we couldn't find anything on their bodies..."
Dorothy murmured as he was lifting up the dead Smith and searching his body. He found that most of the guy's clothes were burned, and everything on his body was either lost or burned in the battle with Andreitheus and Edmund just now. This made Dorothy feel a little disappointed.
Dorothy still hoped very much to find his extraordinary item that could summon water snakes, but now it seemed that the summoning of the water snakes was either a one-time thing, or the thing was burned or lost. However, Dorothy no longer had time to look for it slowly.
"Huh... From this point of view, Luer is really a bit fat. He is just the leader of a small gang in a small city, but why is he wearing so many things..."
Dorothy continued to sigh and said that as a Black Earth, Luer of the Holy Communion was really too rich. Not to mention the Feast Talisman and the Extinguished Black Candle, Smith's reaction when he saw the Heart-Eating Staff Sword just now showed that this thing was definitely not an ordinary extraordinary item.
"The main hall... According to what he said, this Heart-Eating Staff Sword should be from a place like the Afterbirth Cult's main hall. I don't know why such a precious thing ended up in the hands of Luer... Is there any hidden story behind this?"
Commanding Smith to pull out the Heart-Eating Staff Sword from his chest, Dorothy murmured in the carriage, saying that the core belief of the Afterbirth Cult is the Mother of Cups. In addition to branches like the Wolf Blood Society, there should be a main hall as the core. However, Adele said that since the Mother of Cups has never delivered an oracle, the main hall that should only believe in the Mother of Cups has now declined and been squeezed by the other three branches whose power has expanded.
After collecting the staff and sword, Dorothy led Smith and his beastmen to continue searching the secret room, trying to find something valuable, but unfortunately, due to the fire, Dorothy found nothing except a secret document that was almost burned.
"Okay... it's okay, it's better to have something than nothing. The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the water snake outside is almost solved. We have to get the things out quickly."
Thinking of this, Dorothy asked a beastman to pick up the Heart-Eating Staff Sword and the secret text that she had found, and quickly crossed the fire to a window sill. She then placed the things on the window. Not long after, an eagle flew down from the dark sky, grabbed the secret text and the staff sword and took them away.
Dorothy controlled the eagle corpse puppet and flew into the dark night sky with the trophy in her hands. When she was about to release the control of the corpse puppet in the secret room, the altar built with blood-stained bones in the center of the secret room suddenly moved, and the flesh and blood in it began to roll automatically.
