Chapter 363 The Terrifying Place of the Holy Source
"Finished?"
Seeing Jacob's thoughtful look, Lu Qi couldn't help but ask:
"What are you going to do?"
"You should know that even if we just killed Constantine and a large number of Holy Trinity troops, this is not worth mentioning to the huge Holy Trinity."
"They have a lot of resources, sufficient manpower and material resources, and they will not give up easily until they get what they want..."
Hearing this, Jacob nodded slightly and said to himself:
"I know that thousands of years ago, they did the same at all costs to kill me..."
Overlooking the entire ruins of the Acropolis below, as well as the tribesmen who were holding torches and cleaning up the battlefield, Jacob's eyes flashed with a gleam of wisdom:
"I have been avoiding this problem since Kit City was submerged. I once thought that as long as it was buried under the ice together with the entire city, it would be fine..."
"However, the successive appearances of the Soviets and the Holy Trinity, and the continuous deaths of their tribesmen, made me understand that human beings' desire for immortality can never be satisfied."
"For so long, I have been forcing a fate that does not belong to them on these poor people, forcing them to give everything for something that will only bring death and ominousness."
"Perhaps, the holy source should not exist in this world at all..."
Hearing this, Lu Qi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He turned his head to look at Jacob who didn't look like he was pretending, and his heart suddenly moved slightly.
At this time, Jacob just turned around, looked directly at Lu Qi with his eyes that had seen all the vicissitudes of life, and said in a deep voice:
"Lu Qi, I want to know, if you find the sacred source, what will you do with it?"
Seeing Jacob's serious look, Lu Qi just shrugged, spread his hands, and replied:
"Actually, I'm not interested in the Holy Source. Even coming here is just to watch over Laura and prevent her from getting into trouble alone. How to deal with the Holy Source depends on what she thinks..."
Staring closely into Lu Qi's eyes, the prophet who had lived for thousands of years seemed to want to see through his inner thoughts.
However, the feedback he finally got surprised him.
Because, in his opinion, everything Lu Qi said came from his heart. In other words, the young man in front of him really didn't care about immortality!
Thinking of this, Jacob blinked and then said: "What if I said, I hope you destroy it?"
Shaking his head, Lu Qi seemed to have expected that he would ask this question, and immediately responded:
"Laura would not agree. Her father died for this. She feels that finding out the truth behind the sacred source is her father's legacy and a responsibility she must fulfill."
"She is now focused on finding the source of the sacred and proving to the world that her father's research is right."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jacob's eyes flashed with worry, and he took over and continued:
"That's what worries me!"
"Laura doesn't understand the horror of the Holy Source at all... Once the Holy Source is made public, the result will not be as beautiful as imagined. People will definitely use all kinds of means to compete for this powerful power.
, at that time, the whole world will fall into endless war, and death will follow! "
"However, if it continues to stay here, it will only make my people trapped in the quagmire and continue to face the persecution of the Holy Trinity."
Having said this, Jacob paused, and then said to Lu Qi in an extremely solemn tone:
"My friend, if you can, I hope you can promise me something..."
"What's up?"
"I can tell you the location of the Holy Source, but I hope you can convince Laura and then destroy the Holy Source!"
...
the next morning.
In the bedroom of a wooden house in the village of the survivors.
Accompanied by a murmur that sounded like a dream but not a dream, Laura, who had been sleeping for nearly ten hours, finally woke up faintly.
Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling, Laura blinked her eyes, was stunned for a while, and then murmured to herself:
"I'm not dead?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a familiar voice came to her ears:
"Of course you're not dead!"
Hearing this, Laura stood up suddenly and followed the sound.
Lu Qi, dressed in black long sleeves, was seen sitting on a wooden chair not far from the bed, looking at her with a smile!
"Lu Qi?!"
"You finally woke up... I thought I had to imitate the prince in Sleeping Beauty and give you a deep kiss of love before you would wake up..."
Hearing Lu Qi's teasing, Laura felt a little shy for some reason.
She lowered her head to avoid Lu Qi's gaze and looked at the fur quilt she was wearing. Only then did Laura react, raised her head and asked:
"How was Trinity's offensive? Did we win?
"That's it for now."
"Where is this?"
"After you were unconscious, Jacob and I took you back to the village..."
"so..."
While muttering, Laura seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly opened her top, revealing her smooth abdomen.
When she touched her lower back, which had no scar at all, she couldn't help but paused and showed an expression of disbelief:
"How can this be?!"
"I remember I was shot and seriously injured, but now..."
While speaking, Laura paused for a moment, seemed to realize something, and then raised her head and looked at Lu Qi:
"What the hell is going on?"
"Don't worry, listen to me, this is what happened..."
After Lu Qi's explanation, Laura learned that Jacob was the legendary prophet, and it was he who used the power of the sacred source to save himself from the brink of death.
After accepting so much information at once, Laura was stunned for a while before she asked again:
"Where is Jacob now?"
"It should be in the meeting hall..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Laura lifted the quilt, got up from the bed, sat on the edge of the bed, and started to put on her shoes.
Seeing this, Lu Qi couldn't help but ask:
"Where are you going?"
"Of course it's time to meet the legendary prophet!"
...
The wooden house arranged by the survivors for the two of them was not far from the meeting hall in the center of the village.
After just walking a few hundred meters, the two arrived at the meeting hall.
Jacob, who was standing at a long table and talking with a villager, couldn't help but smile when he saw Laura and Lu Qi walking straight in:
"Laura, it seems you are recovering well."
As he spoke, Jacob did not forget to wave his hand to let the villagers leave.
Meeting Jacob's experienced eyes, Laura, who was originally full of doubts, suddenly didn't know how to speak.
After hesitating for a moment, she finally spoke:
"Lu Qi told me everything..."
"Although everything happened suddenly, I haven't had time to fully digest it. However, I still want to thank you, Jacob, for saving my life..."
"As long as you're fine, you fought bloody battles for me and my people. How could I just sit back and watch you die?"
Nodding to Lu Qi on the side, Jacob opened his arms and then said:
"You are here just in time. The tribesmen who went out to investigate have just brought back good news. It seems that Holy Trinity has no intention of continuing to attack here."
