“Great Eternal Sun God. You rules over all light. You are the symbol of mercy, the symbol of sacredness. You represent the untaintable holiness.
I am your loyal guard, the shield that defends the evil from endangering your children, the sword that cuts down all the evil regardless of their identities.
Noblest existence in the sea of stars, the source of light and the origin of life, merciful Eternal Sun God. I pray for your grace.
I pray for your sight to this lowly guard.
I pray for your guidance.
I pray that you will bless our beloved ones.
I pray for your holy power. I pray for your sacred blessing which can cleanse all evils.
Through the sun, I pray for your blessing to your lowly guards who are going to cleanse the evil ahead.”
Seven armored men did half kneeling action with one hand holding the gun and one hand placed on the chest while looking up at the sky and staring at the blazing sun. They read the prayer under the guidance of Peter uniformly with their firm voices. Strangely, they didn’t feel burning nor piercing feeling of their eyes from staring at the sun intently. Instead, the sun has been bringing warmth and nourishing feeling to them since several days ago.
They were doing their ceremony on the dirt road. Not far away, Emma leaned the body of domineering off-road vehicle lazily.
‘Can’t they choose a better one than this dirt road?’, Emma thought. She felt that these guys were probably muscle headed. In her cognition, Emma always thought that ceremony involving God would have to be done in a clean, sacred and good environment. But what these guys doing? They were doing directly on the dirt road. Sacrificial things? Can the sand on the road be counted? Emma felt like she might be probably crazy.
At this time, one of her guards pointed at the sky in the distance and asked, “Guys… Take a look at that.”
In the distance, a group of dense dark cloud was rapidly condensing. Although it was not very big, how it was forming showed the other people about its specialness. After all, the sky beside it was still bright and clear blue sky. Soon, a group of dark cloud was completely formed and stabilized.
Moreover, the environment under the dark clouds was quickly full of pale dark mists.
At that time, Peter and his squad who just finished the ceremony stood up and turned to look at the direction where they were going soon. Then, they immediately noticed the special situation in the distance.
Peter’s face quickly changed and cursed, “Fuck! Couldn’t it be that kind of situation again?”
Ben on the side immediately shouted at Emma and his men, “Get in the car and get out of here. The evil danger is coming. We can’t protect you.”
Allen walked to Emma, gave her a kiss on the forehead and said anxiously, “Leave this place as fast as you can. Otherwise, I would not be able to protect you as I promised.”
Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.
Emma was greatly confused. Allen didn’t explain. He glanced at the dark clouds starting to move towards their direction and shouted anxiously, “They are coming to this side.”
Everyone turned their heads to look at the distance sky. Sure enough, the group of dark cloud was already moving slowly towards their place.
Allen turned to look at Emma and said calmly, “Go to a big city. Then, find origin church and stay at there. Only they can protect you.”
Emma asked anxiously, “What about you?”
“We have sworn to fight against the evil.”, said Allen and he walked back towards his squad standing near a pickup. Emma bite her lips and fell into thoughts.
“Emma, we gotta go.”, said a burly bearded man. And it woke her up. Emma turned around and quickly got into the off road vehicle which was already ready to move. The men nodded at Peter’s squad and quickly drove back along the road they came. Emma silently watched at the armored men who quickly became smaller in her sight while leaning out her head through the window.
She only sat back on the seat when she couldn’t see them anymore. Emma narrowed her eyes and said calmly, “Drive back to the town first. We must inform everyone to flee from this place of right and wrong right now.”
The bearded man on the co-pilot seat said anxiously, “Are you sure about that? It is going to waste our time. And it would be bad for us if we miss the chance to get out. Moreover, we don’t have evidence to persuade them to leave their home with us.”
Emma said firmly, “I know. But I can’t just watch them dying because of that.”
Peter took the only helmet left on the truck bed and handed it over to Allen. While the latter was putting on his helmet, Peter took the pickup into his space ring. He is also the logistic guy of the team in situation like this because only his space ring could take in or take out things in twenty meters radius. It depends on his mental power but it is better than storage bags which need to do physical work.
They didn’t talk anymore. It was not that they didn’t wanna communicate but their communication item was damaged. They felt uneasy looking at the incoming dark cloud and dark atmosphere. Since the cloud moved, it changed from a circular disc to an arrow like long stick shape. As for the reason, Peter also didn’t know. But he felt that it might depend on the movement.
Peter looked at the gun in his hand and wondered if the bullets would be enough. Due to sudden knowledge, they only had time to switch and load several drum magazines. There were only two for each person and they were all loaded with purification holy bullets. Of course, they also have special pistols loaded with magic breaking bullets. Just in case, they might come in handy.
After a moment, several cars driving in very high speed passed through them. Peter saw scared, afraid, worries and crying on the faces of the people on these cars. He wondered, ‘What just exactly happened?’
But he was not afraid. Although they suffered a lot in Cerriro town accident, they became different from them at that period. Couple with special arms, Peter believed that they would be able to solve most of the things and would be able to run away easily from highly dangerous things. Moreover, he believed that high level people from their side would also take necessary measures too.
As for the late arrival of high level reinforcement in that accident, Peter realized that things were not so easy after he read the book and understood the preciousness of boundary crystal. So, he felt that they would not be very unlucky to the point of meeting with another gangster who came up with boundary crystal. It must be so. Peter relaxed slightly.
Another batch of several cars in high speed passed. The poor people had no time to look and check at the strange armored guys standing on the roadside. It was terrible. They still couldn’t believe that many familiar people were infected by something and changed into those zombie like things in movies.
They were lucky to be able to flee that evil scene because they were in the cars. Other people were not that lucky. Without being able to fire a single shot, pale blackish mists entered their bodies and transformed them into something else.
Seeing that kind of situation, how could these people dare to stay and fight. So, they quickly started the cars and immediately fled the scene for life.
However, these people didn’t realize that there were pale blackish spots appearing on their skins.
The dark clouds and strange environment under the clouds full of thin blackish mists were still slowly moving towards the town far away along the dirt road.
