Chapter 2420: Fog, Bridge, and Strangers

Chapter 2421 Fog Bridge and Strangers

"If there is even justice"

"Don't be so pessimistic."

Shade interrupted her again and looked into the blonde maid's eyes again:

"Justice is not absolute, so we don't know whether our actions are correct. But that doesn't matter. As long as we have a clear conscience and strive to be the light that guides more people, we can call ourselves righteous."

"Do you think you are righteous?"

She thought for a moment, and there was something inexplicable in her eyes.

"Of course I am not just. Justice is too heavy. But at least for now, [Eternal Light] appears to be just. I admire their ideals, but as for their practices, I will not comment."

He smiled at Matilda again, but he didn't see the blush on his cheeks that was covered by his hanging hair.

"Justice is pale and cold, but our souls are hot. There is no point in pursuing justice deliberately. It is enough to understand the truth, be consistent in words and deeds, not bully the weak, and reach out to help others appropriately."

He continued to look at the building of the Opera House, and the blonde maid standing behind him nodded slightly. For a moment, she felt as if she understood what her master saw in the man in front of her.

Although the opera house has a back entrance, Mr. Lean and Mr. Ronan both walked out of the front entrance in casual clothes after changing from their white robes.

They first walked eastward along the street in front of the Opera House. After two intersections, Mr. Lean, an ordinary person, left in a carriage, while Mr. Ronan continued walking eastward.

Under the cover of thick luminous fog and illusion, Shade and Matilda followed him from a distance. This gentleman with the sixth ring did not go around in circles, but kept moving forward with a clear goal. Soon he arrived at the Tatton River, then headed south along the riverside streets, and walked onto the bridge deck at the entrance of the yet-to-be-completed Moon Bay Bridge.

Although it is Wednesday afternoon, due to the thick fog, the Yuewan Bridge has been temporarily suspended, and there is no one on the bridge at this time.

Although they were confused about what he wanted to do, Shade and Matilda followed him.

The bridge deck has not yet been closed, so of course Mr. Ronan cannot walk all the way to the other side of the bridge. So after the gentleman who belonged to [Eternal Light] stepped into the bridge, he followed the scaffolding used by the workers for construction and climbed to the upper level of the bridge as nimbly as an ape.

"Can you fly?"

Shade asked in a low voice to the girl beside him, who shook her head slightly:

"Same as Miss."

There is approximately 141 feet (about 43 meters) between the upper and lower levels of the Yuewan Bridge. This distance has exceeded the current 20m limit of Raglay's jump.

But this didn't bother Xia De. They stood there and watched the six-ring warlock ascend to the upper level of the bridge. Then Xia De motioned to the girl next to him to hug him:

"You must not let go, this is no joke."

After just a moment of hesitation, the maid reached out and hugged Shade's waist face to face. Even though she knew it was nothing, she still felt her heart beating rapidly at this moment.

The memory of that night that often appeared in her dreams came to mind again. The maid's face turned red as if it was on fire. She was worried that Shade would notice something strange about her, but Shade was just hesitant about whether to tell her or not. It means asking her to hug him from behind:

"Forget it, that's it."

"Weather vane bluegrass" extract dripped on the tip of the tongue, and then threw out the frog legs. He put one arm around Matilda's waist and threw the cards upward with the other. After bending down slightly, he suddenly kicked off and jumped upwards as if flying.

Squint your eyes and stare at a higher place, estimate the distance and then take a step forward in the air:

"Raglai's jump!"

The two people appeared out of thin air twenty meters above their heads. They stepped on the cards they had just thrown up and jumped forward. Then they stood firmly on the upper level of the bridge.

He took the initiative to let go of the hand holding the girl in a very gentlemanly manner, while Matilda took a moment to remember to let go of Shade.

She took a step to the side, and then saw Shade raising his left hand. A card flew out of the fog and was caught in Shade's hand. He said to the blonde girl who was still blushing:

"Let's go and see what Mr. Ronan wants to do."

The thick luminous white fog not only blocked the view of Mr. Ronan who was walking in front, but also blocked the view of Sha De and his two men. Fortunately, Shade relied on the clerical relic [Crow's Eye] harvested in the crow's nest after hunting demons, and was able to barely see through the fog and see Mr. Ronan's figure still ahead.

Compared with the lower level of the bridge, which is nearly completed, the upper level of the bridge with dense scaffolding on the sides obviously still has a lot of work to do. However, due to construction requirements, the upper and lower levels of the bridge extend the same distance on the west bank of the Taton River.

Walking on the steel plates under his feet made a very rhythmic sound. Mr. Ronan didn't walk for long before he stopped at the end of the bridge.

The blurry figure stopped moving in the fog, but Shade suddenly raised his hand to stop Matilda beside him:

"There's a second person."

Another figure appeared next to Mr. Ronan without warning. The fog blocked Shade's appearance completely, and the newly appeared ring warlock obviously saw their figure:

"You two, it's enough to follow you here. I don't know what your plans are, but don't follow any further."

The sound was so vague that it was difficult to distinguish between male and female.

Shad took a small step forward, protecting the maid behind him, and stared at the new figure:

"Our plan has succeeded. Look, haven't you appeared?"

"Do you know who I am?"

The vague figure asked, and Shad shook his head slightly:

"Of course I don't know, but since Mr. Ronan, the priest, asked for help from you, you obviously occupy a more core position in [Eternal Light]. Speaking of which, can you tell us how we were discovered?"

"If you can tell us your identities, I certainly don't mind solving your doubts."

The vague figure asked, and Shad's eyes were gradually adapting to the fog. He glanced at the small bat symbol floating above the figure's head - this ability comes directly from the vampire god with a very high priority. After hesitating for a while, he reached into his pocket and then took out a long sword that he absolutely couldn't put in his pocket.

The surface of the long sword is densely covered with dragon scale patterns. This is the "Dragon Scale Long Sword" that Shad carried when he followed Miss Belindel out of the city and encountered the werewolf that night. The long sword was strengthened by the dragon scale coin in the [Earth Core Furnace]. Although it is not as good as the relic, it is also a top alchemical weapon.

The vague figure on the edge of the bridge also noticed that Shade took out the weapon, so the figure nodded slightly and reached out to grab a ray of blood from the fog:

"Well, you won't admit defeat without a fight. No matter which side you two belong to, I won't kill you. [Eternal Light] has no intention of getting involved in the major events that the city is about to face, so if you lose, don't investigate us."

He waved his hand to signal Mr. Ronan not to participate, and then said to Shade and the others:

"Come together."

Although the tone was loud, as the bells and whistles sounded from the thick fog, the life ring floating behind the figure actually looked like it was only at the level of six or seven rings.

The glowing fog was so thick that Shade couldn't even see what the spiritual runes belonging to him were.

The vague figure then disappeared as abruptly as he had appeared abruptly just now, but this was not a spatial movement. Losing the other person's figure also means losing the trace of the small bat symbol on his head. Shade, who fully released his perception, raised his right foot and stepped on the bridge surface. He first used the "Space Stability Aura", and then his eyes caught a blood mark coming from his right side.

The blood mark in the vast fog was as conspicuous as ink. Shade did not use his right sword to block it. He chopped the blood moonlight with his left hand and collided with the blood mark. Then he pulled Matilda behind him and stepped back and appeared twenty meters away.

And where they were originally standing, three pure white light turned into spears pierced out from under the bridge. And as the three spears scattered into light spots and merged into the fog, the light in the stirred fog gathered as if it was being pulled away, until it gathered into the glowing blurry figure.

"Illusion? Clone?"

The blonde maid asked softly, and her six-ring life ring had already appeared behind her. At this distance, Shade also saw that the life ring behind the figure 20 meters away also had six rings, but that life ring was not made of brass, but was made of pure white light.

"I don't know either."

Shade replied. The little bat symbol was still floating above the figure's head, so this was at least not an illusion.

"Be careful yourself."

"Yes, master."

He was a little surprised by this answer, but he didn't care to think about it at this time.

With a flick of his left hand, the chain of sin shot out from his sleeve like a long snake into the thick fog in front. The figure obviously didn't want to touch the chain, and the figure scattered into the fog again, and then appeared directly beside Shade.

The blood light in the hand of the blurred glowing figure had obvious whispering elements, but it was wrapped in light and couldn't be seen clearly. The blood light collided with Shade's sword, and under the situation where Shade's power was dominant, the surface of the dragon scale sword cracked with a click.

He didn't have time to complain that he didn't have the chance to bring a holy sword out on this occasion. He swung the chain with his empty left hand, but the light figure dispersed again to avoid the chain. He reappeared on the side of Xia De and slashed with his sword again. This time, the dragon scale sword broke into two pieces with a sound of snap.

The tip of the sword spun and flew under the bridge, and Xia De, who disappeared on the spot, also avoided the sharp edge of the blood light. He appeared from behind the light figure and stabbed the opponent's back with the blood-colored moonlight dagger.

The dagger successfully hit the target, but the moonlight entered his body, and Xia De actually felt that part of the power of his spiritual weapon was absorbed, and then the dagger shattered like glass.
