056 The Power of Name【()~】

o56

Zhang Xiao looked at the pattern on the pennant flag.

Ignoring the faded red base, the iris lace and the golden lines representing the holy light, the most conspicuous thing on this pendant is undoubtedly a weird cross.

It is actually not appropriate to say that strangeness is just a small cross than an ordinary cross. Moreover, those who know the meaning of this sign may not think that this cross is weird.

"The Lorraine Cross..." Zhang Xiaonian said, he happened to know this different cross.

The Lorraine cross is also called the double cross, and is known as the true cross, representing freedom; and the extra small cross bar in the legend says the four Latin letters [InRI] are written on it, which translates to [Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews].

That's right, it is said that Jesus was crucified on this cross.

Zhang Xiao looked at Ji Qing, and the woman holding the Lorraine Cross Flag naturally appeared in his mind, "Joan of Arc?"

In the Middle Ages, there was a legendary woman called "The Girl of Orleans" and "Joan of Arc". She was illiterate, but claimed to have received the will of God. She waved her sword and flag, and activated the battlefield as a woman. She defeated Britain repeatedly when France was in a comprehensive disadvantage, and eventually completely reversed the position of France's disadvantage in the Hundred Years of War between Britain and France.

That pennant is the Lorraine Cross. Legend has it that Joan of Arc has such a flag. She will carry it with her every time she goes to the battlefield. She once said, "I value my flag more than my sword."

This can be seen as a proof of her devout faith in the Lord, of course, Joan of Arc might have believed that it means that the Lord is right beside her.

Ji Qing showed a firm smile on his somewhat gloomy face, "That's right, I inherited the name of [Joan of Arc] and possessed her power - the power of a hero given by legends."

Zhang Xiao was not happy after hearing this, but instead frowned and pondered slightly, "Inheriting the name of a hero?"

Ji Qing glanced at the monster that was about to break through the mist, and then said, "That guy probably inherited the name of [Adam], the ancestor of original sin of mankind. Although he possessed strange power, he was not Adam, but just a trialist with part of Adam's power."

She raised her sword in one hand and said in a deep voice: "And it's an unlucky guy who was backfired."

“oaoa!!!”

The next moment, the monster rushed out of the water mist, and the fur was rotten by steam, making it even more irritable. It rushed out of the water mist, but it rushed up without looking.

Ji Qing blocked the monster's claw with a sword.

boom------

The sound of the metal and iron fighting swept across the audience instantly with a terrible wave of air. The two on the field only had one blow, and the leaked wave of air actually blowed Zhang Xiao away.

Ji Qing looked at Zhang Xiao worriedly, but he didn't care and focused on fighting with the monsters.

Bang bang bang!!

The monster and Ji Qing fought very quickly, and Zhang Xiao could not see the changes on the field at all, but he knew that both of them were just physical tests.

The temptation of flying sand and rocks.

Zhang Xiao narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to block the gravel like a bullet. Although he was not injured, he was still beaten and painful.

After a long time, Ji Qing and the monster finally finished their test and stopped for a while, and Zhang Xiao finally saw the monster clearly.

"Seven heads and ten horns, body like leopards, mouth like lions, and bear claws... This thing..." Zhang Xiao frowned slightly, feeling that he must have heard of such things.

After a brief rest, the monster started to take action again.

"oaoa!!!" Its screams are no different, but this time the sand and gravel are controlled!

The rolling sand and gravel were aggregated into a huge giant five-meter-high, and they wielded the stone fist that was bigger than Ji Qing.

Ji Qing crossed his sword and flag in front of him, but he was knocked away instantly and spit out blood in the air.

This is not magic, it is purely power!

"oaoa—————————” The monster's screams became louder this time, as if inspired. The stone giant also gathered more earth and rocks under his control, becoming bigger.

Boom-boom-

Every step it took was like an earthquake, and it caught up with Ji Qing in a slow and rushing manner.

Zhang Xiao was worried when he watched, but he had no choice but to continue to recall this familiar monster, hoping to help.

Bang---

After catching up with Ji Qing effortlessly, the stone giant knocked her away again.

Finally, Ji Qing made preparations in advance this time, and a beautiful man turned over and stood up.

Her face looked ugly, as if she had suffered internal injuries, but her eyes were bright and bright, and she could not see any depressedness.

"oaoa!!!" The monster's scream urged the silent stone giant.

But facing the heavy punch of the stone giant again, Ji Qing inserted his sword, held the flag in both hands, and shouted loudly, "I am fearless, because God is with me!!"

Zhang Xiao knew this famous saying, which was what Joan of Arc once said, but now it is more than just a famous saying, it contains great magic!

Chi———

The white light instantly occupied every inch of the entire space.

"oaoa!!!!!!!" The monster's scream sounded in the blind white light.

When the eyes could see again, the stone giant on the field had turned into ashes, as if it had been thrown into the sun and burned.

But what was even more surprising was that the monster, which seemed to melt, shatter, cracked and...it then...it showed Adam he was swallowed by him.

"So that's it..." Zhang Xiao recalled what he saw just now, and suddenly realized, "That was the first wild beast [666], a monster recorded in the Bible."

After recognizing the monster and seeing Ji Qing’s actions just now, Zhang Xiao finally figured out the origin of the power of the two.

"What?" Ji Qing gasped and asked subconsciously, but looked up at Adam who was still alive in front of him, and his face turned ugly again, "He is indeed not dead."

"Don't worry." Zhang Xiao comforted and said affirmatively, "We have an advantage."

"Why?" Ji Qing didn't understand, "You also saw my power. Although I don't think he is invincible, it is undeniable that the [name] he inherited has a stronger power than me. Although..., I am sure that his strength must be stronger than me."

"I probably understand the source of your power." Zhang Xiao did not care about Ji Qing's suspicious pause, but said confidently, "The more famous the [name] you 'inherited' is in myths and legends, that is, the higher the mystery, the stronger the power you get, right?"

Seeing Ji Qing nodding, Zhang Xiao smiled, "It is obvious that your power comes from myths and legends, so you think that the human recorded in the Bible is naturally much stronger than a medieval saint, which is usually true."

"Hmm?" Ji Qing said that he was listening.

"The key to the problem is that [name] brings not only strength." Zhang Xiao said bluntly, "In addition to power, I believe he also bears the cause and effect of [name]. In Western terms, it is fate."

The complex expression on Ji Qing's face did not expect that Zhang Xiao was so sensitive and already knew the key to her deliberate concealment.

"You can tell what I'm right, just look at your appearance." Zhang Xiao patted her back lightly, "When you solve this problem, you must tell me well."

Ji Qing nodded slightly.

Zhang Xiao took a breath and continued, "Depending on your appearance, whether it is his peasant costume or your men's armor, it is obviously in line with the history of the original owner of [name]. I think it will not be yourselves. Then this is the fate brought by [name], and this is just a trivial part. The fate that you really have to bear must also include...weakness."

Ji Qing's eyes lit up and she understood a little, "You mean, he also inherited Adam's weakness?" She just inherited this power, so she hadn't thought of this level at once. Now that Zhang Xiao was a little bit, she understood, "That's right, that's what it should be... Is Adam's weakness a snake or a woman?"

According to the myth, Adam was expelled from Eden by God for stealing the forbidden fruit with Eve, and all this was the plan of Satan who turned into a snake.

Obviously Eve and Satan can be said to be the obstacles that Adam cannot avoid in his life. Of course, Ji Qing did not think that he needed to find the "original version" to attack Adam. The symbolic snake and woman were obviously enough.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiao shook his head, "The direction is right, but he didn't grasp the point." He pointed the Lorraine Cross Flag, "This is the point."

Zhang Xiao took two steps forward and looked at Adam who was still struggling out of the monster's bloody limbs, and said, "Better than this sinner who has caused all mankind to bear the original sin because of stealing the forbidden fruit, the pure girl who has seen miracles is obviously closer to God."

"You mean?" Ji Qing murmured.

"Of course it's to summon angels." Zhang Xiao said affirmatively, "You can do it, right? In the legend of Joan of Arc, she has mentioned more than once that she saw the angel, and she was also Saint Miel, Michael, the earliest born archangel."

"He is the guardian of the Garden of Eden designated by God..." Zhang Xiao pointed at Adam again by pointing the flag in Ji Qing's hand, "and he was the sinner who was expelled from the Garden of Eden."

"They... are natural enemies!"
