The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 147: Bullets, nightmares, the kingdom of God.

"The Modern Age of the Mysterious (

Lydia, who escaped with Benjamin on her back, could already see the scene at the back door of the manor.

Two guards in black uniforms and pointed steel helmets ran over.

A cross-shaped dark green light flashed in Lydia's eyes, and the two guards suddenly fell forward, closing their eyes with a painful expression, as if they had fallen into a terrifying dream.

Lydia heard the continuous sound of gunfire behind her, like a typewriter slamming into her ear.

She turned her head halfway, the spiritual essence condensed behind her, but found that the fierce man wearing a black mask tens of meters away, the bullet fired from the submachine gun in his hand did not hit her back.

Turning back and facing forward again, Lydia saw a spectacle—

Countless bullets have circled in front of him, all of them flickering faintly, like fireflies in the dark night.

These "fireflies" seemed to have spotted the wasps of the attacking target and rushed towards Lydia from the front.

The orange-haired girl took Benjamin into her arms, her whole body tightening.

Countless "firefly" bullets plunged into the solid spiritual substance.

They were all stagnant in the esoteric, but the faint light above them permeated Lydia's esoteric.

"Soul paralyzing agent!" Lydia opened her eyes suddenly, and a burst of electricity seemed to burst out from the depths of her soul, removing the impurities scattered in the spiritual substance.

Just after getting out of danger, she opened her eyes to look at her opponent, and she saw an apple-sized grenade thrown in front of her nose.

The spiritual substance wrapped the grenade, and it solidified instantly. The explosion of the grenade was limited to the spiritual substance bubble, like a huge water bubble, and the inside was shiny and bulging.

It was the first time Carlos saw the practice of using esoteric explosive grenades. He seemed surprised by the orange-haired girl's reaction speed and the skill of using essentia. He was stunned for a moment. With some force, he pulled the trigger again with one hand.

This time, the bullet that spewed out of the gun flame was slightly reddish-black.

The bullet with terrifying kinetic energy must be defended no matter what, Lydia once again opened the esoteric bulletproof layer.

The moment the red bullets were embedded in the spiritual substance, Lydia suddenly discovered that these bullets could erode her spiritual substance!

Looking closely, the red bullets fired by Carlos, after being embedded in the spiritual substance, all turned into locusts painted with strange runes, which made the scalp tingle at a glance.

The heads of those locusts were like skeletons.

The dark red giant locusts frantically devoured Lydia's esoteric substance.

Carlos clenched his fists, his callus-covered joints tensed into a bluish-white color, and rushed to Lydia's side.

The thugs plan to use the skull-faced locusts to destroy Lydia's esoteric protection, and then subdue the opponent with hand-to-hand combat!

The girl with terrifying scars had a fierce look on her face. She let the terrifying locusts bite her spiritual essence and said, "My nightmare is so..."

There was a cross-shaped dark green flash that darkened the surroundings. After the girl's left eye bloomed, Carlos suddenly heard the sound of heavy rain pouring from his ear.

A blood-colored rain curtain covers the world.

Carlos saw countless tall, seemingly gigantic people rushing out of the shadows.

Holding various weapons, they stepped on the blood puddle formed by the heavy rain, rushed to their side, and knocked the people who were guarding them to the ground.

In the terror of being struck by lightning, the mob wanted to shout and cry.

Realizing that he was in a nightmare, Carlos fumbled for a tube of epinephrine from his belt, plunged it into his elbow, and injected it into himself.

The steel pipe in the giant's hand hit his shoulder, and Carlos rolled directly into a pool of blood. The adrenaline took effect quickly, making his heart beat like an explosion.

The pain and the effects of adrenaline pulled him out of the dream, and he crawls on the stone pavement of Barton Manor.

However, the shoulder has been dislocated.

The girl with scars on her face wore a sinister smile. Instead of running away while Carlos fell into a nightmare, she walked to the thugs instead.

With green light shining in her blue eyes, she smiled and said, "So, what was your nightmare like?"

——

Kennedy was very confused at this point.

The oblivion flash released by Arthur, who had just rushed over, was the strongest.

The violent flash even temporarily stopped the action of the filthy angel and the evil spirit gunner behind him.

But the flash only seemed to give Arthur a pause, squinting.

Kennedy saw that a golden rectangular frame appeared behind Arthur, with a line of handwritten Leon script in the frame, like gold-edged text inlaid in the air.

His eyes widened in disbelief.

Arthur smiled: "Yes, I got the last authentic copy of the "Declaration of Truth". It is difficult for the strange forces that dominated the old days to affect me."

The great minds of mankind, who once co-authored a manifesto about reason and the pursuit of knowledge, an A-class heritage with similar effects to "Light of Reason".

It can disperse evil and weaken mysterious and strange power. It is a rare treasure in legend.

The fourth shot, Jealousy, was fired in Kennedy's face.

Kennedy's figure retreated at the moment when the shotgun fired, submerged in the dark green fog that suddenly appeared, and only a pair of eyes still flashed fiercely.

Behind him, a neon flashing city emerged in the depths of the dense fog, and there were all kinds of sounds unique to modern cities - laughter, music, traffic noise.

Facing the thick fog like a wall, Arthur lowered the seven deadly sins in his hand: "This is...?"

"A kingdom of gods formed by a brand new faith?"

A new **** is blessing Kennedy, and the modern city in the thick fog is his kingdom of God.

A selfless smile appeared on Arthur's face, as if he forgot that he was fighting a powerful enemy: "This era... is getting more and more interesting."

The last drop of mercury-like thing in the transparent tube wrapped around the golden leaves dripped onto the wound stained with the blood of the angel of the gunman. A burst of blue smoke rose, and Jess let out a groan~lightnovelpub.net~ The wound seemed to start It healed like a violent chemical reaction.

Longway Patton was also wearing a white suit today, with a solemn and dignified face under his gray beard. He handed the carbine to his younger brother with complicated eyes.

Jace glanced at his brother.

The two brothers did not like too much verbal communication since they were young, but they knew each other better than anyone.

Jace got up, took the carbine, and rushed forward, which clearly revealed a strange atmosphere.

Long Wei Barton stood up, and when everyone around him was panicking, he just pursed his lips.

——

Carlos stood in the dark room.

He doesn't know if he is getting smaller or the whole world is getting bigger.

He found that everything around him was outside the normal size.

Especially in front of him, there is a long table with almost invisible ends.

What is terrifying is that there is a tall corpse lying on this long table.

The head of the corpse was on the far right of Carlos' line of sight, and the thugs had to look at his feet and turn the head completely to the other side.

Just standing in front of the corpse and looking at it, you can feel how cold and stiff the corpse is.

Like the embodiment of death, it is inescapable and irresistible in front of Carlos.

A huge fear grabbed his throat at this moment, and the adrenaline that had just started did not let him get rid of this fear, but made his heart almost stop because of the excessive throbbing.

The scene in front of me seemed to evoke memories buried deep within.

"Grandpa?" A childish voice came from Carlos' throat.

The hand of the huge corpse on the stage suddenly lifted, and suddenly grabbed the thug's delicate wrist.

Like huge shackles locked him tightly...

The touch of death made Carlos instantly dissipate.
