Chapter 405 Apocalypse Knight! !
The originally relaxed atmosphere in the warehouse was instantly broken.
The moment the knock on the door rang, both Joe and Rufus became nervous. They aimed their weapons at the door and were alert.
It's no wonder that their reaction was so great. Now the two of them were trapped in a small town surrounded by demons. There were bloodthirsty and cunning demons outside. They were already frightened.
At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Anyone who thought about it knew that there was a high probability that the person outside was an enemy rather than a friend.
In order to prevent the demons from breaking in, Joe has poured salt in the gaps between the windows and the door in advance. According to the rules of this world, demons cannot step into places blocked by salt.
Because of this, the knocking on the door seemed even more strange.
Rufus was the first to take action. He took two quick steps and stood in front of Joe. Although he didn't know what kind of monsters were out there, he couldn't let a little girl rush to the first position.
"who?"
Rufus spoke.
His voice was a little hoarse due to nervousness, which was particularly harsh in a quiet environment.
After the voice fell, the atmosphere fell into silence again. The guy outside didn't make any movement, and the two people in the room didn't dare to breathe heavily.
At this time, the warehouse was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. It was impossible to say that you were not nervous. Qiao could feel his heart beating very fast.
After no reply for a long time, Rufus turned his head in confusion and exchanged a look with Joe. He also saw the confusion in Joe's eyes.
Just when the two of them could no longer suppress it any longer, there was finally movement outside again.
"Excuse me, isn't Joe here?"
It was the voice of a very young man.
This voice was very unfamiliar to Rufus, he had never heard it before, but for Joe, she reacted to this voice almost instantly.
His original vigilance was instantly replaced by surprise. Without saying a word, Joe took two steps forward and tried to open the door.
But before she could reach the door, she was grabbed by Rufus.
"Are you crazy!? The devil is standing outside!"
Shaking Rufus' hand away, Joe retorted.
"I'm not crazy, and I guarantee there's absolutely no way there's a demon out there."
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Rufus opened his mouth, not knowing why Joe suddenly went crazy, but for the sake of safety, he had to be responsible.
"Don't forget how cunning those demons are. They will imitate anyone's voice, even the one closest to you. Don't forget that your mother Ellen is already possessed!"
"I know, but I can be sure that there is one person who will never be possessed, let alone be imitated by those demons. Get out of the way!"
Seeing that Rufus was standing in front of him again, Qiao looked a little unhappy.
"No way!"
Rufus raised the muzzle of his gun and aimed it at Joe's head, and said with a serious expression.
"I don't know what you are thinking, but I don't want to die here. Do you understand? If you dare to do anything unnecessary again, I will kill you first!"
Frowning, Joe looked a little angry at Rufus.
At this moment, a golden spark suddenly appeared at Rufus' feet.
Seeing this scene, Rufus immediately lowered his head and looked at the golden sparks constantly bursting out from the soles of his feet. He became nervous.
"You! What did you do!?"
It was also the first time for Qiao to see this scene, and she tilted her head slightly.
"I did not do that."
"How...ouch!"
Just as Rufus was about to speak, the sparks suddenly tore a gap and turned into a circular gold-rimmed portal.
Without any time to react, Rufus fell directly out of thin air, and then the portal immediately closed, leaving only his subconscious screams echoing in place.
With her eyes widened, Qiao looked at this scene with disbelief. Apart from movies, she had never seen such a magical scene.
"Who is that buddy?"
At this time, the door opened automatically, and familiar voices and figures also appeared.
"Zhang Yi!"
Qiao raised her head and greeted him with a big smile. At this moment, all the negative emotions in her heart were swept away.
"That man's name is Rufus. He's a demon hunter. We just met. Where did you change him?"
"Oh, I sent him to the Hunter's Tavern. There is a magic mark I left there."
Looking at the enthusiastic Qiao, Zhang Yi just smiled slightly, then raised his hand to rub her head. With a focused look, Zhang Yi suddenly realized that Qiao seemed to have grown taller. She had only reached her shoulders the last time they met. .
".How long have I been gone?"
"It's been more than two years, Zhang Yi, you know, a lot of things have really happened here since you left."
Feeling Zhang Yi's palm, Qiao's emotions became excited. It was as if she had seen her best playmate as a child when she grew up, and she just wanted to tell all her experiences.
His pupils moved, and Zhang Yi sighed silently. It seemed that the speed of time in different universes was really difficult to define. It was obvious that he had only stayed in the zombie universe for a few days.
"It seems that I did miss a lot. You have grown up and now you are even up to my nose."
Zhang Yi patted Qiao's shoulder, smiled and spoke.
"Hehe." Qiao giggled, but she quickly thought of something and asked curiously. "So, your mission has been completed, and those zombie heroes have been dealt with?"
"Not yet, the situation over there is a bit complicated, but I did make some important gains."
Zhang Yi shrugged and gave a brief introduction.
"The scope of those two universes is a bit wide, and I probably can't handle it on my own, so I'm going to ask for some help, and this is a 'transit station', so..."
"oh."
Joe nodded thoughtfully.
"That's right." Zhang Yi looked outside through the window, and then asked a little strangely. "What are you doing here? Is there a case here?"
After hearing Zhang Yi's words, Qiao remembered that she was not out of danger yet, and she hurriedly spoke.
"Speaking of which, Zhang Yi, you came just in time. This town has been occupied by demons. There are all people outside who are possessed by demons. Even my mother is possessed by demons!"
"Devil Town. Wait what did you just say? Your mother is possessed by the devil? Ellen!?"
Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment, his face full of confusion.
Hearing this, even Zhang Yi didn't know how to complain for a while. Like other demon hunters, Zhang Yi naturally knew the rules of this world.
After a special spell is tattooed on the body, no demon can forcefully possess it. Even the prince of hell cannot break this rule, unless it is the kind of being who is powerful enough to ignore the rules set by the God of Creation.
But the problem is that an existence of that level can already compete with the God of this world, and there is no need to possess a tavern proprietress.
Frowning, Zhang Yi couldn't help but ask again.
"Are you sure your mother is possessed?"
"I'm pretty sure!"
Qiao nodded matter-of-factly, worried that Zhang Yi wouldn't believe her, so she explained specifically.
"I saw with my own eyes that my mother's eyes turned black and her expression was very ferocious, and she also tried to attack me."
"Wait a minute, let me touch it."
Zhang Yi rubbed his temples. He didn't expect that he would come by such a coincidence this time.
The demon town, the people who were transformed into demons, the demon hunters who should not be possessed. At this time, Zhang Yi finally recalled what the plot here was.
If I remember correctly, the timeline at this time should be that Lucifer escaped from trouble and opened the 'Apocalypse'.
Hell and heaven are about to start a holy war, and the battlefield is the world where humans live, that is, the earth. At this moment, both sides are actively preparing for war, just hoping to kill their enemies once and for all.
As the highest combat power of both sides, since the fallen angel Lucifer and the archangel Michael cannot appear in the real world, they must find a suitable human body to display their true strength.
Needless to say, Lucifer's physical body is none other than Sam, who has been targeted by the yellow-eyed demon for a long time. As Lucifer's brother, Michael's physical body is also none other than the sword known as the 'Michael Sword' Dean.
The two brothers will once again be involved in an infinitely terrifying situation, performing a great drama under the watchful eye of God.
At this moment, what is happening here is the beginning of the apocalypse, and it is also where the first knight of the apocalypse appears.
As one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Red Horse Knight, who symbolizes ‘war’, was born in this remote town. As soon as he arrived, he triggered a fierce war.
The specific manifestation is that everyone falls into extreme hallucinations and kills each other.
In fact, most people here are not possessed by demons. Although the number of possessed demons is large, they are not as terrifying as an entire town.
However, under the influence of the War Knight's ability, everyone, including Joe and Ellen, mistakenly saw the dark eyes of others as if they were possessed by demons.
For demon hunters, when such a scene occurs, they will reflexively prepare to fight. In such a situation, it is difficult for them to calm down and communicate with the other party.
As a result, with the help of the War Knights and other demons, an unprecedented war broke out in this town. Everyone joined in the killing and attacked everyone they saw.
In order to make the war more artistic, the War Knight also deliberately manipulated the illusion to divide these people into various forces, so that Joe and Rufus thought Ellen was a devil, while in the eyes of Ellen, Dean, and Sam , Joe is the devil.
"Okay, I probably understand what's going on."
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi finally figured out the whole story.
"Don't worry, Joe, your mother is not possessed. It was just some guy's illusion. Everyone here, including you, was deceived."
"What did you say?!"
Hearing this, Qiao's eyes suddenly widened.
It wasn't that she didn't believe Zhang Yi's words, but she suddenly remembered that she had almost electrocuted her mother to death.
