Evernight God Walk

Chapter 226 Cardinal (Part 1)

The cold wind rolled up, and the afterglow was obscured by the night.

As the last glimmer of light dissipated between heaven and earth, a bleak chill struck.

It's like winter.

Xilan Town, in front of the tavern.

Warm yellow light shines through the windows of the tavern, and the burly boss is rummaging under the counter. He scratches his head and wonders to himself: "Strange, is there no white olive (the name of the wine) here?"

He opened the drawer, fiddled with it, then opened a drawer next to it, and found a flashlight in it.

Just as I was about to squat down to search, suddenly my ears moved slightly.

He got up and looked towards the front door of the tavern.

With a creak, the door was pushed open, and the cold wind rushed into the tavern.

The flames on the other side of the fireplace seemed to be suppressed, as if they were about to be extinguished.

Seeing the face of the young man in front of him clearly, the tavern owner was slightly startled, his expression a little stagnant, he couldn't help looking behind the young man, and saw three other familiar figures following closely like ghosts.

but……

"boss."

Xu Shenchong smiled at the dazed tavern owner, came to the bar and sat down: "Have a glass of wine."

The tavern owner's eyes were uncertain, feeling Xu Shen who was sitting so close, his throat seemed to roll subconsciously, and he forced a smile: "Aren't you drinking white water?"

"Now I like to drink." Xu Shen said softly.

The owner of the tavern glanced back and forth at the faces of the three people behind Xu Shen, but saw a signal that kept his heart sinking. He forced a smile and said, "Where's Lao Liu?"

"he's gone."

The tavern owner's expression was even more unnatural, but he still tried his best to restrain himself: "Is there something urgent, why don't you come to say hello?"

While exchanging greetings, he turned and touched the counter.

Clang.

A bottle of wine was knocked and smashed.

The tavern owner's eyelids twitched violently, and he patted his head and said, "Look at me being careless." Grabbing two bottles of wine firmly from the side, he took them down.

"You haven't asked me what wine I want to drink." Xu Shen said softly with calm eyes.

The tavern owner seemed to be reminded, and quickly said: "I can adjust whatever you want to drink."

"Same as Old Liu." Xu Shen said.

The tavern owner smiled a bit reluctantly: "Are your tastes so similar, okay, I'll adjust it right away."

He flicked open the cork, fetched the mixing glass, his eyes fell on the three people standing behind Xu Shen, and said, "Where are these three friends, what do you want to drink?"

The three of them just glanced at him silently, without speaking or taking any action.

Standing behind Xu Shen like a puppet ghost.

Cold sweat rolled down the face of the tavern owner, and soon after a cocktail was mixed, he handed it to the young man sitting in front of the bar who was meditating: "Use it slowly."

The drink squeezed into the sight, which seemed to bring the young man's ecstatic gaze back to reality.

"You're still young, too much drinking is bad for your health, it's better to drink plain water." The tavern owner advised.

Xu Shen picked up the wine glass and said softly, "Water will only get colder the more you drink it, but wine will get hotter the more you drink it."

After speaking, he raised his head and drank it.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and a short dagger suddenly came out from under the bar, and under the ferocious gaze of the tavern owner, it stabbed at Xu Shen suddenly.

puff!
The dagger was like silver light, piercing the wine glass in an instant, and plunged straight into Xu Shen's throat!

Blood flew wildly, splashing into the shattered cup wall and onto the bar.

Seeing Xu Shen's unbelievable gaze, the boss sneered.

He withdrew the dagger, to prevent Xu Shen from being a person with reconstruction ability, he slashed out again, several times, the dagger pierced Xu Shen's throat, forehead, and eye sockets.

With a bang, he grabbed Xu Shen's hair with one hand, raised the knife with his hand, and chopped off the head.

"Just this kind of stuff?"

The tavern owner frowned as he looked at the headless corpse spewing blood in front of him.

Suddenly, he felt a stabbing pain in his arm.

He raised his arm and saw purple meridians emerged on his arm, entrenched like earthworms, his arm became stiff, apart from tearing pain, he was also gradually losing consciousness.

The boss was horrified, and hurriedly looked at the old man behind Xu Shen: "Old Du, what are you doing?!"

But he saw Lao Du's pitiful eyes: "Look at what you are doing."

Myself……?
The boss looked down, and saw that Xu Shen was sitting in perfect condition, and the bar counter looked like it had been cleaned before, so how could there be any splash of blood?

The head in his hand... He looked down and saw that it was a bottle of wine.

thump.

He let go of his hand in shock, and the bottle shattered.

Everything is like waking up from a dream.

The boss suddenly looked at the young man behind Xu Shen, he had heard of the latter's ability.

Nightmare!

The boss has an ugly face, damn it, when is it?
"It seems that this wine can't be drunk." Xu Shen looked at the boss with regret.

The boss looked at Xu Shen angrily: "Where's Lao Liu?!"

He then looked at Lao Du and the other three people: "You actually betrayed the Pope?! Don't you think this brat is more far-sighted than the Pope? Following such a person, you..."

"Humph!"

Old Du snorted coldly, and interrupted his words: "Emperor Liu is dead, now we swear allegiance to the new king, don't be obsessed with it."

"Emperor Liu died at the hands of the new king, not because we betrayed the Pope."

The young man behind Xu Shen said indifferently.

The boss was about to shout angrily, when suddenly his vision distorted, the tables and chairs in the tavern were torn apart, and a church scene in the dark emerged.

The weird and terrifying huge Ruins Beast, and the young man connected to the Ruins Beast.

The two states of the four ambushed and assassinated.

And Liu Jichuan, who was facing each other ahead.

But then... a horrible thing happened.

Everything that happened in the church before, reappeared before the eyes of the boss, and ended quickly like fast forward.

When the sight in front of him returned to the tavern again, the boss's face was already pale, as if he was exhausted, and looked at the young man in front of him in horror.

His gaze subconsciously looked at Xu Shen's shoulder, where there was still a strand of black hair entwined impressively.

This made the boss' pupils shrink tightly.

The young man gave the boss a meaningful look, but said nothing.

"Six cardinals (ji) bishops, there is one left, it must be Ah Coal."

Xu Shen said softly: "Or, it's time to call him Xue Mei."

Xue was the surname Ah Mei got later, and it was also bestowed by Liu Jichuan himself.

The boss's face was ugly, and he was dripping with cold sweat. In the end, he lowered his head: "Please forgive my rudeness, I will swear allegiance to the new king to the death!"

He knelt down on one knee, although he couldn't use it inside the bar, but his body was hidden in the ruins, across the bar, he just knelt in front of Xu Shen.

Xu Shen nodded slightly: "Get up."

The boss stood up slowly.

At this time, the purple meridian on his arm was gradually fading away.

Obviously, Xu Shen, who controlled the three cardinals, wanted to kill him easily.

What's more, Xu Shen still has the A-level ruin beast he saw from the nightmare ability.

No wonder Emperor Liu would fall at the feet of this young man... He had thought that Liu Jichuan, Lao Du and others would be waiting to welcome him back, but the position of leader was changed.

"In order to kill me, six cardinals were transferred to this small town. Liu Ju is really optimistic about me..." Xu Shen smiled softly. The reason why the tavern owner in front of him did not participate in the assassination in the church was because of the latter The ability is not suitable for assassination, it belongs to the assault system.

The same is true of Xue Mei.

The boss felt bitter. When Liu Jichuan summoned them all earlier, they thought it was a fuss. Unexpectedly, things turned out like this now.

Xu Shen stood up and said, "Let's go, let me meet the last cardinal."

The boss glanced at Lao Du and the others and knew that the sky had changed.

He tore off the bartending apron on his body, and no longer pretended to cover it up, revealing the burly figure and muscles that had been suppressed and contracted before. His height was impressively 1.9 meters, or even close to two meters.

Like a humanoid brown bear, under the bartending suit is an elite yellow-brown battle suit.

He followed Xu Shen silently, and the group walked out of the tavern.

The cold wind hits.

Suddenly, Xu Shen felt a slight chill on the back of his hand, and when he looked up, it was actually a piece of melting snow.

He looked up, and at this moment, apart from the bleak cold wind and mist under the night, there were actually scattered snowflakes falling down.

It's already early spring, and it's still snowing.

Xu Shen stared at the falling snowflakes in a daze, then lowered his head, tightened his clothes and jacket, and walked forward.

The footsteps of the five people walking were silent, even the huge body of the tavern owner following behind was still on the ground.

Soon.

The five passed by the school that Xu Shen passed by during the day.

At this moment, the school is empty, like a ghost in the dark, and the windows are like huge eyes, staring at the passers-by outside.

The night in the small town was exceptionally quiet.

Xu Shen soon came to the previous cabin.

Inside the wooden house converted from the former kennel, warm yellow lights shine.

Looking from the ruins world, the wooden house is like an illusion, only Xue Mei is inside, but his daughter Xiaoqiu is not there.

When Xu Shen saw Xue Mei, Xue Mei also looked through the wooden house and saw Xu Shen.
