Unfathomable Doomsday - 24. Chapter 24 The Last Mercy (4000 words!)

Beyond Alsace’s surprise.

The view outside the door.

It is a peaceful town.

Probably because there was news of a virus infection in Wenhan City not far away.

The people in this small town are in a hurry, and many people are planning to leave with their luggage.

If it is normal, it should be a beautiful scenery, the best place for tourism, right?

Arthas was already standing at the door wearing a cloak.

For some reasons, the camouflage glasses redeemed by the system could not have any effect on Alsace.

This made Lu Qiu a little bit distressed.

However, this cloak, which can cover everything, covered Arthas’s appearance and the dazzling silver hair.

Where did the master go? Arthas glanced around the street and found that Lu Qiu was nowhere to be seen.

She closed her eyes, and gradually walked towards Lu Qiu along the weak connection with Lu Qiu.

Through the streets paved with stones, the surrounding buildings are in the style of Western European churches, not Chinese.

It adds a sense of sacredness to this town.

It was already time for the sunset, and Arthas’s reflection was drawn very long, very long.

The town has gradually become quiet and peaceful, making people feel like they want to stay here.

This is the hometown of the master? The hometown of a vampire?

Arthas didn’t understand why Lu Qiu’s hometown was here, shouldn’t it be in the eerie castle?

She walked along the path towards the outside of the town, and on a hillside, she found Lu Qiu.

This is a cemetery…

Large and small tombstones are placed here to mourn the passing of the dead.

Lu Qiu was at the back of the cemetery. He half-kneeled in front of a tombstone, holding a bunch of flowers in his hand and gently placing it in front of the tombstone.

Arthas walked behind Lu Qiu.

Her first impression of Lu Qiu was that although Lu Qiu was very gentle on the outside, it was just a disguise. Inside Lu Qiu, it was a monster or lunatic who was desperate for a certain purpose!

After all, Arthas still remembered the memories of the exorcist period very clearly.

What Lu Qiu did can clearly feel his hatred of humans.

But as a monster, why did you suddenly come to this place?

The cemetery… the cemetery of human beings, this kind of place to mourn the dead of human beings?

Arthas didn’t understand it very much.

Lu Qiu stroked the dust on the tombstone with his hand, revealing the profession of the tomb owner.

“Sister…” Arthas whispered the words written in English above.

The nun who dedicated everything to the light…

Why does the master who represents the darkness sweep the tomb for this nun?

“She is my mother…” Lu Qiu gently stroked the tombstone that had been gradually corroded by the wind.

“Mother?!”

The cat ears on Arthas’ forehead stood up.

“Well, it exists like an adoptive mother. When I was young, she was brought up by her. It’s surprising that a nun would raise a vampire…”

Indeed… it is surprising.

There was a reluctant smile on Lu Qiu’s face, unlike the craziness and hypocrisy of the past, but a really weak smile.

“She is an idiot. As the master of a monastery, she adopts homeless children everywhere and turns the monastery into an orphanage.”

Lu Qiu whispered and confided to Arthas.

“And it’s very annoying. Every time she eats, she tells us not to forget to thank the gods, and every time we sleep, she also tells us not to forget to say thanks to the gods… nagging, it’s really annoying…”

Lu Qiu stroked the hand of the tombstone and suddenly stopped…

“Then…?” Seeing Lu Qiu stopped speaking, Arthas asked instinctively.

“Then? Then died…”

Lu Qiu stood up and looked at what was written on the tombstone.

“This is a beautiful town, a good place to travel, it is indeed a good place to travel, the monastery is also a good tourist attraction, a good thing to make money… So the real estate dealers around here want to buy this monastery, but The idiot said something stupid like “If you sell it to you, the children won’t have a home,” and then… and then died. Human beings are really terrifying creatures, things that you can’t get, even if you use force. Go for it.”

“…”

“But, it’s really good.” Lu Qiu turned his head and looked at Arthas, the smile on his face remained the same. “After she died, it was on the news. The developer didn’t dare to ask anything about this town anymore. He was afraid that he would be discovered that he was the mastermind. Then he would be arrested and sent to jail or something, and he gave us a lot of money, called We don’t want to talk nonsense everywhere, so after her death, life in the monastery feels a little easier.”

It’s… okay…

It’s really, great.

“Master…” Alsace suddenly found that there was something in the corner of Lu Qiu’s eyes.

“Did it rain?” Lu Qiu turned his head and walked in the direction of leaving the cemetery: “Alsace is gone, go to the monastery to take shelter from the rain…”

rain……

Arthas glanced at the sunset on the small slope, and the sun was clearly visible.

She didn’t ask much, just followed Lu Qiu over.

At the end of the cemetery, about to enter the town, I saw a monastery.

In a lonely monastery, the crow flutters its wings near this dilapidated building.

Lu Qiu didn’t have much, and walked into the dilapidated monastery, and the crows standing on the building suddenly stiffened and collapsed.

Arthas glanced at the body of the nearest crow.

Their hearts were pinched…

For an instant.

Arthas glanced at Lu Qiu, not understanding why Lu Qiu did this.

The gate of the monastery was blocked by heavy iron locks, and the surrounding doors and windows were also blocked.

It was almost like a haunted house, so no one dared to approach it at all.

Arthas saw Lu Qiu standing at the door.

A scent of frost overflowed from his body, and then the iron lock of the door was frozen into ice and fell to the ground.

Lu Qiu thinks it’s really nice to have a family member…

He opened the door and walked in, the smell of dust spilled over the entire space the moment he opened the door.

Lu Qiu ignored the statue in the church and walked straight into the room.

At this moment, Lu Qiu could no longer restrain his inner mood and walked into the indoor room.

In a small dusty room, there are several beds and two small coffins.

In front of the bed were placed a chair and a table, and a kerosene lamp that had no kerosene.

Arthas followed Lu Qiu inside, and she glanced at the things on the table in the doorway.

There is also a book, stroke the dust on it…

It is a story book.

She glanced at the layout of the room, and could imagine how the children who used to live in this room spent the night.

Listen to the story told by the person sitting in this chair… and then fall asleep peacefully.

Is that the same with the master? She looked at Lu Qiu who was turning over the coffin.

“Look…found it!”

Lu Qiu exclaimed excitedly.

He took out a small box in one of the coffins.

This window is the only one that is not sealed, and the sun shines through the window.

“?” Arthas walked behind Lu Qiu, looking at the small box that Lu Qiu opened in his hands.

Photos are placed inside…

All kinds of photos.

All are children’s.

But no matter how many photos there are, there is no Lu Qiu.

Vampires are creatures that are not recognized by the gods, and they will not leave any images on the photos.

“Still…”

Lu Qiu turned out a piece of white paper among the piles of photos like a treasure.

“Great…really…still…” Lu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and threw the small box aside, only holding this drawing paper.

“Master?” Arthas walked to Lu Qiu’s side, looking at the drawing paper spread out in Lu Qiu’s hand…

It’s…a girl’s…

She is only about ten years old, her long jet-black hair dangled, her eyes squinted and smiling, with a small mole on the corner of her eye, she stretched out her hands as if to hug someone.

The artist’s skill is very superb, almost completely showing the girl’s joyous mood.

It feels…like the real thing.

Arthas glanced at the abbreviation on the corner of the scroll.

‘Give it to my beloved sister…’

younger sister? She looked at Lu Qiu again.

Is she the master’s sister? In other words, this was painted by the master? Where is the master’s sister now?

“I got what I want.” A scroll holding the drawing paper appeared in Lu Qiu’s hand, and he carefully put the drawing paper in it: “It’s time to leave this town.”

Is this the only thing you want here?

Lu Qiu walked outside the monastery without any nostalgia.

Alsace, who didn’t love to talk, continued to follow Lu Qiu silently.

What are you going to do next? Go on… dye the world black?

Perhaps it was an illusion. Arthas looked at Lu Qiu’s back, and she could feel that Lu Qiu still had the last trace of tenderness, but was it really possible? For a monster?

impossible.

In the last glimmer of the setting sun, Lu Qiu passed a jujube garden in this small town.

He glanced at Zaoyuan, but found that there was a petite figure who seemed to be working hard.

It’s a little girl… Maybe she ran out of the house and wanted to eat those dates when she got hungry.

There are still some red dates on the trees in winter, not many.

But Lu Qiu walked into the little girl.

To eat? Arthas looked at Lu Qiu from a distance.

Vampire species, they all like to eat the blood of virgins.

However, an unexpected scene for Alsace.

“This way, you can get it, right?” Lu Qiu carried the little girl on his back and let her sit on her neck.

“Wow! So tall! Big brother can get it.”

The little girl excitedly stretched out her hand to grab the jujube branch, grabbing a few big jujubes.

“Be careful.” With a smile on Lu Qiu’s face, he seemed to enjoy the scene.

“Yeah!” After the little girl caught enough red dates, Lu Qiu carefully placed her on the ground.

“This is the only time today. Don’t run away from home anymore. My parents will be worried.” Lu Qiu stroked the girl’s head.

“Understood, thank you elder brother…” She gave Lu Qiu a red date in her hand: “I will go to my mom and dad. Just treat this as a gift.”

“Goodbye, then.”

Lu Qiu stood in the orchard and watched the little girl jumping out of the orchard.

“Owner?”

After that, Arthas walked to Lu Qiu’s side, completely unable to understand why Lu Qiu did this.

But the smile on Lu Qiu’s face was real.

“Don’t ask anything, don’t say anything.” Lu Qiu pointed to the setting sun.

“Let’s watch the sunset with me, this town…the last sunset…”

“…”

In the end, Alsace and Lu Qiu sat on a high slope together, and the whole town could be seen above the high slope.

At the same time, the cemetery is not far away.

At the last moment of the sunset.

At the moment when the whole town was shrouded in the dark night, a calm and comforting breath radiated this night.

“Alsace.” Lu Qiu whispered to his subordinates, holding the scroll with the scroll in his hand.

“?”

“Summon your Legion of Undead.”

“Master!” The cat ears on Alsace’s head stood up again, and she stared at Lu Qiu, who still had a smile on his face.

“Summon your undead army, didn’t you hear it? This is the first order, do you want to violate it?”

“But the master…”

This… is your hometown! The memory that Lu Qiu showed to this small town just now is definitely not false, and there are tears…

why……

“I came to this town and I only need this.”

Lu Qiu raised the painting in his hand.

Only this is enough…

“Indeed, I admit that I want to protect this town and keep it peaceful, but this is impossible.”

Lu Qiu clenched the painting in his hand.

“Any life can only guard one thing in a lifetime. If there are too many, it will lose its meaning. All I want is this… So Arthas, let me see your undead army, this world, I Make it completely dark black.”

“clear……”

She stopped talking, the cloak draped on Arthas fluttered, revealing her long hair that was silver whiter than snow, and the great Lich King drew out his eternal sword! Frostmourne!

The trembling dark atmosphere spread throughout the land.

Wake up! My army!

Arthas pierced Frostmourne into the ground.

Afterwards, the earth began to shake, and a large number of dry bones suddenly appeared in the soil, one after another, they were holding the rotten blades, and the blue soul fire was burning in their pupils, which made a quack. The rotten sound…

The army of the dead!

“Let this town turn into a sea of flames…”

This time, it was Lu Qiu who ordered…

“Destroy!” Lu Qiu took off his camouflage glasses and threw them aside, the scarlet in his pupils burst out completely…

“Destroy everything within sight! Do not leave anything! Burn me a brick and a tile! Kill all lives! Lick all the blood! No matter what!! Give it all! I destroy it!”

Lu Qiu waved! The Undead Legion issued a harsh roar, and they marched towards the peaceful town.

Begin to trample on everything in this small town…

Everything!

I only need this thing in my hand! Lu Qiu made up his mind from the beginning, even if he destroys everything, even himself, as long as she is enough!

Owner……

Arthas looked at Lu Qiu, who was standing among the endless army of undead, mighty? Can’t match it? Does it make people tremble all over? Arthas didn’t think it, she only thought that Lu Qiu was very pitiful…

As for the reason… Arthas looked at the undead legion. One did not hold a sword, no shield, or any weapon. Judging from its rotten clothing, it seemed that he was a nun before his death…

It has turned into bones, relying on its own hands and teeth, fighting…

The corpse in that cemetery also joined the undead army…

Now Arthas could understand how terrifying Lu Qiu’s determination was.

Even if you abandon yourself, you must destroy the world.

So… what exactly makes him like this?

Is it because of the painting in your hand? Or… the beautiful girl in the painting, the person she wants to hug, must be Lu Qiu.
