Looking up to heaven in hell Chapter 15 on the abyss

Chapter 15 Deep

If the process of history is a necessity, then this must be composed of countless accidents.

Straw, who rushed over, stared at the space gate and asked, "How could Serena get in?"

The woman in black said, "She was not experienced enough, and was deceived by Roger and was stabbed into the space gate by him."

"You mean..." Straw's voice trembled, and he asked with the last glimmer of luck: "Then, the sword of Damocles..."

"I was taken in by her, too."

Although Straw had seen countless storms in his life, he still felt dizzy and weak all over and almost fell to the ground.

The woman in black looked at Straw coldly, even feeling gloating.

"Serena relies on your favor, she never knows the importance of her work, and she doesn't know how many disasters she has caused. The last time she caused a disaster, if you were willing to lock her in a water prison and reflect on her for three months, or at least whip her hard, would she still be like today without knowing the height of the sky and the earth, and do whatever she wants?"

Straw was worried and anxious, and was so excited that he was addicted to the fire of the woman in black that he couldn't help but be furious: "Su! Enough! Serena is still young, and she will inevitably make some mistakes. As a sister, you should help her more! Now you are gloating. I think it's you who should be imprisoned!"

"Make a little mistake?" Su sneered: "Training the Sword of Damocles into the Abyss of Barto is also called making a little mistake? My father, can you tell me. Is there any mistake that is bigger than this? If so, then I am willing to spend twenty years in the water prison! With her ability to make people laugh, if it wasn't for the power of the Divine Sword, I still want to fight against the fox-like Roger? I really don't understand why the Divine Sword chose her!"

Straw sighed and said, "This...ah, what's the use of saying this now? Let's think of some solutions!"

Su vented some resentment in his heart, and seemed to begin to realize the sinisterness of the situation. He pondered: "Father, aren't Druids from Yunxiao City very good at breaking seals? With their understanding of seals, there may be a way to seal this space gate. Although the greedy Druids will take this opportunity to propose new conditions, there is no way. Since the sword of Damocles has entered the abyss of Batto, this space gate may collapse at any time. The Abyss Gate is still far from the imperial capital, but in order to crack the seal, the emperor almost killed Pompey. Think about it, if groups of Batto demons suddenly emerge from the center of the imperial capital..."

Strau had calmed down at this time, and although he still regretted Serena. But since she had entered the abyss of Barto, she would definitely not be able to come back alive. After the heartache, the prime minister of the empire finally regained his calmness and determination.

At this time, Deputy Straudy hurriedly asked for a meeting outside the door. Straud and Su glanced at the peaceful space gate, left the place helplessly, and came downstairs.

"Master Strau! We sensed the mark of Lord Charles near Pompei's Mansion, but the soldiers were eager to save people and had a conflict with Pompei's people, and they accidentally killed one of the other. There were too many people. Our soldiers could not resist it, and almost all were killed, and only a few people escaped!"

Straw frowned, walked around with his hands behind his back for a few times before he said with a blue face: "Retreat all of us! Don't clash again with Pompey and Alexander tonight!"

The deputy was stunned for a moment and said, "But Lord Straw, our strength in the imperial capital is not worse than Alexander and Pompey! Now Lord Charles is clearly kidnapped by Pompey and the others. If we withdraw, what should we do with the safety of Lord Charles?"

Straw snorted, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Hold on these days first. If they dare to touch Charles, then I have nothing to worry about!"

The deputy man stepped back, but in a blink of an eye, he ran back. The panicked look made Straw extremely unhappy.

"Mr. Straw! Things are not good! The news just came. Lord Riddle was assassinated!"

Straw was shocked and said, "What!"

General Riddle was in charge of the Imperial City Defense Forces. Although his position was not high, he was a real and powerful figure. He was Straudd's confidant and decent subordinate. It was precisely because of his presence that even though Alexander and Pompey had huge private armed forces in the imperial capital, Straud was not worried.

Now that Charles is kidnapped and Riddle is killed, the two things are linked together, which can only mean that Alexander and Pompey are ready to use blood and fire to decide the outcome with him!

Straw quickly calmed down from his shock and anger and quickly came to the command hall downstairs. The numerous magical devices in the command hall and the two magicians who were on the turn can enable Straw to pass information to important figures as soon as possible.

In the center of the hall is a huge magic map. It lists in detail all the above and below the imperial capital, and even the natural rivers deep underground.

Straw stared at the map for a while, reached out and clicked on the map a few times, and the bridges he pointed to lit up. He said to his deputy: "Although General Riddle was assassinated, General York is also ours. Let the guards he could mobilize to control these bridges immediately! Also, let him pay attention to the situation. Monitor the movements of Pompei's mansion closely, and if there is any movement, immediately return them. Notify Ampe outside the city, and ask him to lead the five thousand soldiers to approach the camp of the Ice Corps for surveillance, but do not fight with them. Notify Gurbanda, and say that the night of the 'Blood Moon' has arrived."

The deputy knocked down these orders one by one, and asked the two magicians to spread the message one by one.

Straw stared at the magic map for a long time, his fingers hung in the air and could not fall. Finally, his hand fell on the magic map, and a large-scale house lit up.

"Su! Go and kill Li Wei in the place where he lives. After killing him, if you still have time, kill all the other people in the yard here, and no one will be left! Come back here immediately after killing."

The woman in black licked her bright red lips gently. It seemed that the killing and blood coming made her very excited. She responded, and the seductive figure gradually disappeared.

Not long after, an important bridge on the magic map suddenly turned red.

A magician in charge of communication said: "Mr. Straw, a fierce battle has just happened on this bridge. It seems that the other party also wants to control the bridge. It is very regrettable. The message said that the number and personal combat power of the other party overwhelmed us, so our local people were defeated."

Strau looked at the location of the bridge. He immediately clicked another place on the map, which was a residential house. "Mobilized heavy infantry teams and joint crossbow teams to occupy the roof and the tallest building in the Vonsk District. You must guard this place at any cost! Please send a mage here to assist in the defense."

The location designated by Straus is very critical. This residential house can control a large area nearby. On one end, there is a strong military fort controlled by the Straus faction, and on the other end, the Imperial Palace. If Pompei and Alexander do not pass through here, they have to bypass half of Richelieu before they can attack the Prime Minister's House. They will never let the soldiers enter the Imperial Palace within a thousand meters. This behavior is seen by the Imperial Guards, which is like a rebellion.

The situation is urgent at this moment. It seems that Alexander and Pompey have decided to come forward, so Straw no longer cares about covering up the truth and decides to directly send troops to occupy the houses in important positions.

After a while, the color of this house on the magic map also turned red.

The wizard who sent the message replied: "Master Straw, the other party has mobilized a large number of warriors and is attacking for a strong force! However, Lord Gurbanda and his mages have arrived."

"Have you responded to the Cloud City?" Straw asked.

"Their message has been received. The Great Elder Osedas has left the City of Yunxiao and is expected to arrive in Richelieu in three days. Druid, the residence of the Goddess Temple of Nature, has gathered and is monitoring the Lord Hall of Ice and Snow Goddess. As long as the Ice and Snow Mages leave the Lord Hall, they will immediately capture the Lord Hall of Ice and Snow Goddess."

Straw nodded, and his heart became much more at ease.

At this time, a faint smell of blood spread in the command hall. Su in black appeared behind Straw again. She smiled at Straw, satisfied and cruel. Straw nodded, knowing that Su's mission had been completed and that he must have been a living person.

The prime minister of the thin empire's eyes fell on the magic map again. While paying attention to the changes in the situation, he issued an order to mobilize his troops.

There was only one thing he felt very confused, that is, Alexander and Pompey were both very clever commanders, so why would they do such an almost crazy behavior tonight? Even if they could kill themselves, how should they face the anger of the emperor tomorrow? As military generals, their behavior of openly fighting in the imperial capital with soldiers is enough to exterminate the clan.

But no matter what kind of doubts Straw has, he must now face tit and mobilize all the power in his hands to attack his opponent. At least he must be able to meet the Emperor.

On this night, the flames ignited everywhere reflected the night sky in Richelieu. No one noticed the bloody edge of the blue moon in the sky.

On this "Blood Moon" night, are everyone crazy?

Not only Straw had such doubts, but Alexander and Pompey also had the same doubts. However, the two sides had been in opposition for a long time and had already prepared countless sets of emergency plans under different circumstances. As long as one side had abnormal movements, the other side would inevitably launch a response plan. As you go back and forth, the scale of the conflict quickly expanded. The entire Richelieu was full of fire and killing sounds.

However, both sides still maintained their final restraint. In addition to the most fierce competition for the Vonsk District, the military strength of the other secondary locations was less than 100. In fact, although both sides were the most powerful ministers and generals of the empire, they could only rely on their own few guards and personal soldiers in the imperial capital. Except for the most important Vonsk District, the purpose of fighting in other places is to test and restrain. In the case of not being able to use the army on a large scale, the outcome of the battle between the two sides will depend on the result of the battle between the strong.

After General Riddle's death, the city defense army was temporarily paralyzed and unable to control the situation in the outer city. The imperial palace's powerful imperial guards were on full alert. But for some reason, they remained silent and turned a blind eye to the fight between the two sides.

Under the silent attention of the terrifying beast of the Imperial Guard, both sides carefully controlled the scale of conflict and revenge, and did not dare to step beyond the line.

However, both sides knew that there were too many factors that could not be controlled. In the ever-changing battlefield, accidents would happen at any time. Therefore, they were quietly accumulating all their strength in their hands, ready to give their opponent a final blow before the situation was completely out of control. Even if they had to face the emperor's surging anger, it would be tomorrow.

On Strau's magic map, a originally calm church in the south of the city suddenly turned bright red and then quickly disappeared from the map.

Straw's eyes twitched slightly. He came to the window and looked silently at the surging fire pillars more than ten meters in the distance. The flames that instantly razed a church to the ground could only be a masterpiece of high-level magic. Straw sighed secretly. When the high-level magicians on both sides began to move, the scale of the conflict could no longer be controlled. Unfortunately, Straw could not control the actions of the Druids. However, the only way to do this is to weaken the opponent's strength as much as possible.

Su, who had been quiet, spoke: "Father. I have already rested. Now it's time to go out for some activities. I think there must be many ice and snow mages running around in the city now."

Straw nodded heavily, watching Su's figure gradually become blurred. He suddenly said, "Su! Be careful. There are many strong people in them. If you encounter difficulties, don't show off and come back here immediately!"

Su's figure paused for a moment and then disappeared.

Before leaving, she chuckled and said, "This is the first time you are concerned about my life and death!"

She always felt a hint of imperceptible sob in her bloodthirsty and cruel voice.

At this time, under the reflection of the blood moon, a slender figure was moving quickly. She avoided the fierce battlefields and rushed towards the direction of Pompei's mansion. A huge wheel saw was stuck in her hand. Blood was still dripping on the extremely sharp saw teeth.

Blood and flames did not attract Feng Die's attention. She was still immersed in the pleasure of killing, and the warm blood was flowing down her slender hands.

Fengdie no longer felt the bloody smell of floating ground, but the faint moonlight in the sky made her restless. She could hardly suppress her bloodthirsty **, and just wanted to rush into a house full of land and kill her, just like she had just done it at the home of the old man named Riddle.

Feng Die flew between blood and fire while lifting her left hand full of blood.

She gently licked the blood on her fingertips.

The blood is warm and sweet.

She put her hand down again. Roger had issued a strict order to prevent her tongue from being stained with blood. Feng Die now only knows that Roger's orders must be obeyed. Licking a few drops of blood is the limit she can do.

Tortured by the double curse of darkness and bloodthirsty, Fengdie has become drowsy, and her whole body is like a stove falling into a fire. Her consciousness is gradually becoming blurred. She wants to rush back as soon as possible. In the crazy and absurd carnival with Roger, she is venting all the burning pain, and then, what she yearns for the most,

Quiet sleep.

The ignorant sleep is the happiest time for her. And waking up is the beginning of endless pain.

A sudden and severe pain made her wake up a little, but she still looked at the holy light that was shrouded in confusion, wondering where these beams of light that produced strong burning pain came from.

Under the burning of the holy light, the blood on Fengdie's body boiled and evaporated quickly. When the last drop of blood disappeared, the holy light also disappeared.

At this time, a gentle voice came into Feng Die's heart: "Discovered soul, you let hatred blind your soul, and you go further and further in the blood and dark hell. You were once noble and pure, so were you willing to accept destruction in a daze?"

Feng Die was blankly looking for the source of the sound and found that a figure appeared in front of him at some point.

This is a middle-aged man whose face is covered with the wind and frost of time. He has bare feet, only a dark gray robe, and his long brown hair is casually scattered on his shoulders.

Feng Die's eyes immediately fell on his hands. This was a pair of slender, white hands, which was eye-catching, with gorgeous shackles on his hands.

The shackles flashed with blue light. The light flowed on the chains, and countless magic talismans were like tiny bubbles under the water, constantly turning on the surface of the chains and gradually disappeared. However, more new magic talismans would float up from the depths of the chains.

The man was separated from the wind butterfly with a burning house, but he walked step by step into the air, and the flying smoke and fire could not leave a trace on him.

The closer he got, the more Feng Die felt a strong light coming out of his body. Not only did it hurt her eyes, but it also shone on her body. It seemed that bursts of blue smoke were burning. Seeing him walking step by step, Feng Die couldn't help but feel afraid and took a few steps back. But when she looked at it again, she found that the man had neither strong light nor burned his body.

Everything just now was an illusion.

"You have completely lost your direction in your confusion. I will no longer let your hands be stained with blood. Come with me, in the divine flame, your sins and curse will disappear, and you will have the opportunity to repent."

The strong sense of fear made Feng Die unable to calm down and think about the other person's words. The man said for a long time, and she only understood one meaning: he wanted to capture himself and would burn himself with the holy fire.

Feng Die's toes slightly above her toes, and she floated up into the air. She wanted to escape to the distance. For some reason, she was so bloodthirsty that she didn't dare to fight against the mysterious middle-aged man in front of her, even if he handcuffed her hands.

The man raised his hands and a dazzling colorful light lit up in his palm. More than ten golden chains suddenly appeared around the wind butterfly. She felt a sensation and could not move at all. She was locked in mid-air.

The man sighed, "Give up resistance. Although you have caused turmoil in the entire imperial capital, I am still unwilling to use violence against you. With your dark nature, my earthly holy power will bring you great pain."

Feng Die's eyes showed unconcealed fear. She struggled desperately, trying to break free from the chains formed by the holy light. However, the power gap between her and this mysterious man was too large and her physical condition was restrained. Therefore, no matter how hard she struggled, the golden chains could not move for a moment.

"Will it bring her pain to burn her with the holy fire?" A cold voice rang behind the middle-aged man.

The man's face changed, and a golden light lit up at the center of his eyebrows. Then the whole person faintly emitted light, just as if a ball of flame was burning in his body. A circle of golden rings suddenly appeared around his body, just blocking the water-blue sword light from the attacking.
