Chapter 59 Post-war
The nuclear explosion turned this place into a huge funnel-shaped pit. Judging from the location of Qin Lun, they were just in the center of the pit, and only a smooth upward ramp could be seen hundreds of meters away.
Because Leo's purpose was to kill a specific target, the nuclear bomb deliberately strengthened the shock wave and weakened the radiation intensity. Qin Lun and his men were able to survive, and I have to say that they were very lucky.
In order to get Captain America and Liv Liv to escape from danger, Leo left a few seconds when he activated the nuclear bomb. If Qin Lun and the others did not rely on these seconds to escape into the quicksand dozens of meters deep, but instead fought on the ground, they would have definitely died.
However, the power of this nuclear bomb is too strong, and Captain America and Little Red Riding Hood should still be in the explosion range. Whether it can escape from danger depends on the protection ability of the S-Men.
Qin Lun searched with his memory, but still gained nothing and found nothing in the explosion area like a desert.
"I'm so stupid!" Qin Lun suddenly knocked on his head, and a blue-green-entangled Yin-Yang fish pattern appeared in his left eye. He began to see through the blackened and dusty underground with Gannets' left eye that merged into his body.
After a few glances, a hint of joy appeared in Qin Lun's eyes. He endured the soreness all over his body, opened a soft black and gray area, and found a slender rusty iron nail inside.
"Elena Holy Nail!" Qin Lun couldn't help but smile. With it, the pain between him and Grant was not in vain.
"There is another one..." Qin Lun's mind became more and more eager, but he also had a little more vigilance.
The Christ's holy relics have not been corrupted after such a long period of time. It can be seen that the law energy contained in them will basically not be destroyed by the nuclear explosion. However, since Qin Lun and Grant can survive, Lancelot may not have died with the ability of the holy relics.
Qin Lun is now suffering severe injuries and his whole body is covered with internal injuries. I don’t know how many bones have been broken. When he moves, he makes his eyes turn black and he has almost no ability to resist. Of course, he must be more cautious.
After looking through again, Qin Lun finally observed an abnormality somewhere at the bottom of the pit, and immediately leaned forward carefully and slowly cleared off the dust on the surface with his hands.
"This is... Alcatel's curse seal?!" Seeing this crystalline land under the dust, Qin Lun couldn't help but feel moved.
This is carved with a blood-colored five-pointed star curse seal, exactly the same as the blood seal that appeared when Qin Lun fought Alcatel for the first time. However, the blood color of this pattern is almost invisible, with only a faint trace.
Qin Lun took out the evil dagger, viciously scraped the curse seal, and even scraped off a layer of stone chips, but found that there was no effect. This curse seal was like a mirage, just like an image, and its original body seemed to be in another spatial dimension.
"You're lucky!" Qin Lun sighed regretfully. Alcatel was really lucky. He had been plotted twice by him, and he barely escaped the disaster both times.
"If Alcatel is in this position, then what about another guy..." Qin Lun's eyes moved slightly, and he checked inch by inch nearby again, and finally found another abnormality three meters away from the curse seal.
This abnormality was two meters deep under the crystallized ground. It was originally dark and exactly the same as the surrounding environment, but after the perception beam of the clock eye was explored, he finally felt a trace of fluctuations in life.
"It's so good to hide!" Qin Lun grinned, flipped his left hand, and Ayala's weapon box fell out of the storage space with a "bang". He pulled out the Feng Zhishuang from the weapon box with one hand, inserted it into the ground and digged hard, directly using the original legendary weapon as an engineer shovel.
After digging, Qin Lun's bones creaked, his head was covered in cold sweat due to pain, his face was pale and like a dead person, and a large green rice dumpling that was taller than a person was exposed on the ground.
If this thing was not wrapped in dark green thorns, it would be almost no different from Egyptian mummies.
Qin Lun thought about it and stabbed the largest thorn vine with a sin dagger without hesitation, but he still carefully avoided the vital parts of the mummy.
As the sin dagger penetrated, the mummy's thorn vine trembled slightly, twitched like a dead fish, then loosened, revealing the "corpse" inside.
"You are lucky too!" Qin Lun glanced at the "corpse". Although he had already expected it, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. The person protected by the Thorn Vine was not Lancelot, but Lily dressed as a nun. The body of the Knight of the Round Table was actually the Thorn Vine wrapped outside.
Qin Lun gave Lily a bottle of recovery potion, then fumbled on her body, and took out a tube of blood-colored liquid like injections.
This injection was originally hidden inside Integura's head and was later taken out by Lily. The blood-colored liquid inside was called Demon Blood, which was taken from the blood pool of the Demon Clan.
For some apostles, this thing is actually a special recovery medicine, just like holy water. Of course, with Qin Lun's current bloodline, holy water is a poison, and the blood of the demon is the nutritional product. On the contrary, for Lancelot, who uses the holy relics of Christ, the blood of the demon is definitely the poison among poisons.
Qin Lun and Grant handed the devil's blood to Lily, hoping that she would wait for an opportunity to give Lancelot. As a result, because Leo's ultimate move was unexpectedly strong, Lily didn't have time to take action.
Fortunately, because Lily did not take action, she avoided the disaster under the protection of Lancelot. As for the Knight of the Round Table, because of the fusion of holy objects as a whole, she is now like Grant, the clown, but she has fallen into a deep sleep and has not completely died.
Qin Lun tried Lily's pulse and felt that she was not in danger of life, so he focused his attention on the thorn vine that had been slumped into a ball. After thinking about it, he stabbed the thorn vine with a sin dagger.
Every time the sin dagger stabs into the thorn vine, it will cause the thorn vine to twitch and some dark green juice flows out, which looks extremely disgusting. Finally, after the last piercing, Qin Lun felt a sank in his hand, and a thin spiritual body was pulled out of the thorn vine by him along with the sin dagger.
After leaving the Thorn Vines, the spirit body revealed a human face. It looked seven or eight similar to Lancelot, but it looked older. At this time, it opened its pale eyes without pupils, its face was ferocious and distorted, and opened its mouth wide at Qin Lun and roared silently.
However, Lancelot's final struggle could not last and was instantly sucked away by the evil dagger. After devouring the Knight of the Round Table, the black luster on the surface of the evil dagger became more solemn and agile, even giving people the illusion of living creatures.
However, losing Lancelot's spiritual body, the thorn vine withered at a speed visible to the naked eye and quickly condensed into a Rubik's Cube rolled up by dark green thorn vine. However, the pattern on the surface of the Rubik's Cube is a bit unique, with a pattern of a thorn crown engraved on the six sides, floating quietly in the air.
Qin Lun grinned silently, picked up the Crown of Thorns Rubik's Cube and threw it into the storage space. He grabbed Lily with one hand and hugged Monica's leather windbreaker in his arms with the other hand, and walked towards the distance with his staggering hands.
...
"How are they?" Qin Lun asked, looking at the two amniotic fluid tanks in front of him.
Qin Lun was quite embarrassed at this time, with white bandages wrapped around his upper body and an arm hanging on his chest. According to the feedback from the military doctor of the battleship Zeppelin, when he returned to the ship, all his ribs showed signs of breaking, and the only difference was whether the degree was serious or not.
In addition, the internal organs were slowly seeping and bleeding, and the bones of his right hand and left leg were cracked. What was most surprising was that a piece of debris was nailed into the back of his head, and even brain particles could be seen at the wound. It was a miracle to survive.
Qin Lun himself understood that if it were not for the Law's body, if it were ordinary superhumans, even if he did not die, he would have fallen into a deep sleep like Lancelot, Alcatel and others.
"Captain Klug's situation is very strange. I thought he would need a long recovery time. But it was only half a day in the early morning, and he had already repaired his body by himself." Dr. Shahel checked the data of the amniotic fluid tank and shook his head hesitantly.
"I have never seen such a situation. You are much stronger than the superhuman of the Millennium Worm. I cannot make accurate judgments based on my previous experience. However, judging from the data, his body has recovered almost and should be awakened soon."
Dr. Shahel looked at the supplementary data of the amniotic fluid tank and was astonishing. The medical amniotic fluid tank on the battleship was rich in a variety of minerals and nutrient solutions. From the moment Grant entered the amniotic fluid, the consumption rate of these nutrient solutions was amazing.
If we look at the data of ordinary humans, Grant consumed enough nutrients for most of the day to combine into more than twenty complete humans.
"What about her?" Qin Lun pointed to Lily in the amniotic fluid tank next to him with his complete left hand.
"She didn't have many injuries, but the situation was more troublesome than Captain Klug. Her brain was severely shocked, and the brain in the X-ray was almost like a ball of paste. For ordinary people, this injury would become a vegetable even if she survived. However, she seemed to be a superhuman who could recover herself. Her brain is currently being slowly repaired, and it may take one or two days."
Dr. Shahel shrugged his shoulders and hesitated for a while before saying, "It's just that we found out in the information that she is a nun who belongs to the Vatican Dharma Hall. Are you sure she has no problem?"
"No problem. She has made great contributions to us being able to kill Lancelot this time." Qin Lun said with a smile, "In addition, you may not know that she is actually a companion of our past and has also participated in the Battle of Casablanca."
"Oh?" Dr. Shahel looked at Qin Lun in surprise, but the young man smiled slightly and stopped explaining.
Sometimes, it is better to not explain than to explain. In this London Battle, the Montana major showed extremely high strategic qualities, and even Qin Lun admired the plot of the plan. However, this plan still has traces, but the storms caused by Qin Lun were basically completely unpredictable and unexplainable.
He could not tell Montana and others that they were all apostles, and there were also apostles and reincarnators among the enemies, so it was normal to fight and betray each other.
With the shrewdness of Montana Major, the more Qin Lun explained, the more flaws he might have, so he simply wouldn't explain it. Anyway, the fat man loved association very much, and probably would regard those apostles as strong men Qin Lun recruited in the past few decades.
As for Lily, let alone Lily. After reading the report of the Battle of Casablanca, Montana should soon associate her with the female nurse. At the beginning, Lily had done something that was in Cao's camp and was in love with Han, and now she can naturally understand it this way.
"Ahem, and... what about Mrs. Monica's situation?" Qin Lun coughed twice and asked embarrassedly.
"Mrs. Monica has woken up, but her original source has lost too much, and it may take a long time to get rid of her weakness." Dr. Shahel held back his laughter, and he has been in ambiguous since the meeting between the men and women. However, Qin Lun is a bit serious and has been teased countless times in private, but he is still confused.
"By the way, can't you persuade her to enter the amniotic fluid tank? In that case, her body will recover much faster!"
"Monica will never agree to enter the amniotic fluid tank!" Qin Lun sighed. The incident of being imprisoned by the Allies in an amniotic fluid tank left a big shadow in the Queen of Sandstorm's heart, and she still has water phobia until now.
"Have our losses been counted? Is Major Montana out of danger?" The two were silent for a moment, and Qin Lun started the topic again.
"The major is fine, it's just that there are not enough replacement parts on the battleship. He needs to return to the base before he can replenish his body. He is now losing his temper in his room!" Dr. Shahel smiled. They all knew that the Major Montana was a mechanical body, so he had no scruples when discussing it.
"As for the loss, everyone in the Millennium Worm is ready for sacrifice. Compared with the casualties of the Allied superhumans, this Battle of London can be said to have won the greatest victory at the smallest price." Dr. Shahel said excitedly, "Now the Allies are divided by the Battle of London and will no longer be united before the war. We have greater hope of reviving the empire."
Qin Lun smiled and nodded, quietly listening to Shahel's detailed report on the post-war.
In this battle, the biggest loss of the Millennium Worm occurred in the later stage. The move of the Montana Major to the battlefield in person led to huge losses of the Millennium Worm. The Millennium Worm Commando led by Captain Hans, the members of the Enhancer Army were destroyed, and the top superhumans lost three people, namely Lieutenant Thorin, Warrant Officer Luke and "Death" Walter.
Luke had nothing to say, and the other two died at the hands of the apostles, which was considered unlucky. Lieutenant Thorin had no outstanding combat abilities except illusions. When he met the apostles in the complete team, he had almost no ability to resist. As for "Death" Walter, his fate tonight was already destined.
After Dr. Shahr's temporary transformation, the old housekeeper returned to his peak youth. However, due to time constraints, this transformation has a very big defect. The body will collapse after only one or two hours of use.
The "God of Death" who abandoned the lord and loyalty was unable to fulfill his wish to fight Alcatel. After his body was about to collapse, he was killed by the apostles.
However, the attack power of "Death" is actually the name of the name. Before the body collapsed, it actually killed two people under the siege of seven apostles. In this world, the plot characters killed the apostles. I wonder who picked up the Rubik's Cubes of these two unlucky guys.
Another thousand-year-old insect lieutenant worth mentioning is Li Bo. This beautiful lieutenant was originally a pawn for Qin Lun. However, during the battle, Lieutenant Li Bo had no time to support her, and her position was discovered by two apostles wandering around.
Fortunately, the beautiful lieutenant's "magic bullet" was very powerful. With the support of the helicopter that arrived later, although she was seriously injured, she also killed an apostle and repelled another person.
In the position of the Montana Major, the Avengers and Green Hunter on the other side also did not get much cheaper. Xie Na, the thumb girl in the fairy tale girl group, fell in the hands of the apostle, and Snow White Elaine escaped seriously injured.
The Avenger's black widow Natasha was killed by the apostle's disguise and was killed. Iron Man used up his energy and his whereabouts were unknown after falling into the sea. The only Avenger who escaped without injury was the Hulk Bruce Banner. This guy is thick and thicker than the White Giant Leo. The first-level apostle is powerless to do anything to him.
As for Captain America and Liv Little Red Riding Hood on another battlefield, there was no accurate news at this time. However, Qin Lun felt that these two people should not be dead. After all, the White Giant threw them out of the explosion center at that time, and with the protection of the S-Men and the super alloy shield, they had a high probability of survival.
The battle lasted all night from the beginning to the end. The subsequent impact of the war was continuing to develop. During the day when Qin Lun returned to the warship, the world's major powers issued relevant statements on this expected battle.
The Vatican won a huge victory in the war, but in some ways, they were total losers, mainly due to the apostles.
During the war, only a part of the apostles who went to the position of Major Montana, and half of the apostles intercepted the priests of the Holy See. However, after killing some of the priests, the apostles found that these priests were just reinforcers and did not gain much.
As dawn was about to be dawn, the Crusaders were organizing the evacuation, and the blockade of London was greatly reduced. Therefore, after some discussion, these apostles were bold enough to try to rescue the captured British royal family. The Vatican Crusaders lacked actual combat and had no formal army organizational strength to be exposed at this moment, and these apostles actually succeeded.
Their bold raid broke through the flying warship that imitated the scarab, killed the Archbishop Maxwell, who commanded the battle at the Hall of the Kings, and protected the British royal family and major government officials and fled into the mountains of Scotland.
After dawn, the British royal family, who escaped by chance, immediately issued a statement saying that Britain would fight the Catholic Church to the end and called on the people of Britain to rebuild their homes.
The Vatican's overall strategy went bankrupt now. Apart from turning most of London into ruins and killing millions of British civilians, they had almost nothing to gain.
More importantly, after this battle, the Vatican's influence was completely gone, and there may not be so many strengtheners who will join the Holy See in the future. Even the internal Crusaders, many people's beliefs were shaken.
In addition to these superficial political articles, the biggest influencing factor of this war is still fermenting. After this battle, governments around the world seemed to have broken a layer of window paper and suddenly discovered that the low-key way of dealing with strengthening humans was not right.
The future world of Divine Comedy will undoubtedly enter the era of evolution, and they should send positive signals to unite their country's reinforcers and superhumans.
Under this trend, countries around the world have also issued statements for their own purposes, condemning the Vatican Church, which has rashly launched a war, abandoned the political compromise that had originally swallowed up and began to win over all the reinforcers and superhumans in their territory.
Under this form, the three major Nazi organizations received the greatest war dividends. Their early attack on London was artificially covered up, and the Holy See completely took the blame. Moreover, because of the cracks in several major superhuman organizations of the Allied forces, their living environment was greatly improved.
