In front of the light gray hound and her red eyes, there was a powerful explosion under the right-hand Monster Truck, so strong that even the tire armor began to give way and the huge monster on wheels fell off the road, making sudden turns and jumping, and the steel under the bullets began to crack after so great and intense heat, a scarlet imp in a black jacket sitting next to the driver, Blitzo, looking at everything with his yellow-red eyes, knew what but didn't know who.
- it's a phosphorus grenade, it burns even in water, but who?. Blitzo asked and his horns twitched slightly until Blitzo rattled his barks slightly, angry at one thing.
-John. She said Loona happily as her red eyes saw a gray Ford with the roof removed coming out of the black cloud and a killer in black with flowing black hair in the strong wind.
- Wick!. Blitzo shouted maliciously, watching as John shot with a heavy rifle at the neighboring brown monster on wheels, and the bullets designed to pierce thick armor caused subsequent layers of steel to crack in the same way as the shattered driver's cabin, and the Monster Truck itself began to stagger away.
John, driving the Ford along the main road, led the green Skoda safely to the bridge, while the burning monster truck next to it, with broken steel and ignited tires, began to roll over, and another explosion actually knocked him off balance and threw him over four meters, the red imps, Moxxie and Millie, with their yellow eyes, watched the monster flying over melted tires and their jaws dropped with the same sensation as the jaws of the pair of cherubs who were also looking at the image of a multi-ton monster flying through the sky, until the yellow sheep in Keenie's dress started screaming as the burning monster on wheels was barreling straight towards them.
- no no no!. Keenie shouted, closing her purple eyes and she and Cletus hugged the pair of pixies for a moment, and another strong crash of breaking steel made both her and Cletus look at the image of broken steel landing on the other side and then falling over the edge of the bridge into a deep ravine.
- but how is that possible?. Cletus asked, dressed in an orange caftan, looking with wide light purple eyes.
- it's him, because who else?. Millie said to John, who was driving on the bridge in front of them, when there was a strong detonation on the left side and deep within the bridge.
- well, I doubt anyone could recover from something like that. Moxxie said, grabbing his head and gray hair.
The crossing of the bridge was a moment of peace, but it does not change the fact that two Monster Trucks and the rest of the rabble following the fugitives were preparing something, and the leading Skoda Loona pressed the gas pedal with all her might, the wolf lady in a gray top, black trousers and trousers pressed the gas pedal with all her strength, keeping pace driving in front of him and a killer in a black Ford without a roof, and as soon as they all ran out, entering a straight section of road, two Monster Trucks passed them with a loud bang, two huge monsters with thundering engines and Nitro running ran out in front of them like furious beasts because that's what they were, beasts led by ghosts that know no fear or feelings.
- what are they planning?. Blitzo asked, watching with wide eyes as two Monster Trucks began to surround John's car and then hit it from both sides.
- John!. Loona shouted, trying to press the gas pedal with all her strength, but it had already happened, and the Skoda, not adapted to racing, was already giving everything it had, just like the four passengers of two monsters, because now, from two decks, black and white ghosts started shooting at John, but to the wide eyes of the cherubs. and the imps, each of the power balls was caught in the air again by Wick's power, and with an outstretched hand, he turned the balls with his telekinetic power and threw the bullets back, hitting the four passengers, and the power of John himself caused each such shot to shatter into small fragments. each of the ghosts hit.
It was a moment of cheering, but it was quickly interrupted because two drivers performed a maneuver aimed at crushing the target, two Monster Trucks moved away from each other and took off again into one collision point.
- run, John!. Loona shouted, holding the steering wheel tightly and her hands making a slight dent in the steering wheel and the dusty upholstery.
The climax was getting closer with every second and John was still sitting in his seat, and Loona, who was watching everything, clenched her jaw with rage that she couldn't do anything, finally the two Monster Trucks hit the black Ford crushed by their power and everyone's eyes they widened uncontrollably as John Wick jumped to a height of many meters and glided in the air from twenty meters to the moving green Skoda, when Blitzo closed his eyes, Loona with wide eyes and drooping jaws watched as John calmly landed on the front hood of their car, making the green Skoda rose slightly, and Loona, who was driving it, struggled to regain her balance, but that was not the most deafening element at the moment.
Behind John, a crumpled black Ford suddenly exploded before the second and last of the phosphorus grenades was blown up, and in the meantime John jumped inside through the broken window, catching and advising Blitzo in the backseat among the cherubs of the pixies, and in his second move John placed his hand on Loon's. .
- John. Whispered Loona, looking at John with a slight reddening and he watching the explosion and two Monster Trucks rolling left and right, pulling her on top of them, the green Skoda made two revolutions, driving through the flames, the now grounded two brown monsters on wheels, and when the Skoda evened out the traffic and drove on everyone in the backseat saw John driving the car and a confused Loona sitting in the passenger seat alone for a moment, not knowing what had happened.
- but how, how do you do it?. Moxxie asked, looking with Millie at the assassin sitting in front of them.
- firstly, I expected this and I was waiting for you, I didn't wait long for you and here I am, but secondly and most importantly. John said, pulling out his rifle, pointing it to the right in front of Loon's crossed eyes, firing a few shots at the drivers driving on the right and their four quads, defeating with one series of shots a real devastation where the piercing bullets tore the ghostly bodies of the ghosts to pieces from the form of dust.
- secondly, I shoot and you hand me the gun and load it, we understand each other. John said, pressing on the brake and pulling the gear stick, now facing away from the driving force and facing the Motocross racers rushing behind them, with as many as a hundred arrows firing.
Everyone watched with wide eyes as Jonn with his powers caught, stopped each of the bullets and turned their power against twenty motorcyclists, a series of bullets began to whistle in front of the feint motorcyclists, but most of them broke into pieces struck by their own weapons and the tumbling Motocross started a real a domino effect, because the next Motocross cars ran into the ones that had already crashed, blowing up the others, but not the shadows themselves, who ran on without any means of transport and jumped onto the next Motocross cars.
John hit the brake again and pulled the gear lever, the green Skoda made a quick turn again, causing Blitzo, Millie and Moxxie to land on two cherubs, and Loona, sitting next to the driver, shook her head, completely confused, until her eyes trembled even more as the motorcyclists started driving around the road. surround them quickly.
- what do we do, John. Loona asked and John stretched his arms behind him, waiting for the loaded gun.
- Quickly, give me what you have, my gun is already empty, quickly. John said, and Moxxie and Millie quickly and without hesitation handed him two pistols, preparing another pair of weapons and new magazines pulled out from under the black jacket, the outfit and from under the seat where the bag, almost empty of weapons, lay strewn about to the right and to the left.
Suddenly the car started to move, John was making quick turns and turns following the street leading to Etna, with the gun he held in his right hand he was shooting right and left, and with his free hand he was holding the steering wheel and sometimes blocking, he was throwing away subsequent enemy shots, black bullets loaded with natural gray luminous power, Wick ran at the same speed, smashing the oil hosts of enemies, subsequent ghosts ceased to exist, and only one shot to the head or heart was enough, and each shot John made was almost surgically precise.
At this moment, Blitzo, watching the fight, trembled slightly, it wasn't about the fight or the attackers, but about the efficiency with which John fought, his powers, everything that made him an unbeatable opponent now, and just not so long ago he wanted to kick him in the back. , now Blitzo, shaking hands tightly, watched as Moxxie, Millie, Cletus and Keenie, working together, handed John another loaded pistol, and he, shooting and throwing away enemy bullets, drove the car, taking turns so strong that Blitzo landed several times, first on Millie, then on Keenie. .
Finally, the green Skoda entered the swirling motion again at the deepest corner and John, letting go of his hands from the steering wheel, stretched out his hands and shot two guns at the blindly falling motorcyclists, because they were unable to steer the fast corner, their speed was too great, the next motorcyclists started fall off the road becoming an easy target, subsequent Motocross races fell out on their own without drivers, crashing into rocks and exploding loudly and spectacularly until there was a momentary silence.
The green Skoda stopped between the flames and everyone looked around, breathing heavily.
- by all that is holy, what a crazy ride, oh no. She said Keenie, instinctively hugging Blitzo, and she and he jumped away from each other, struggling with natural nausea.
- what now, what now, they're getting closer. Cletus asked, watching the gang of Quad riders getting closer and closer to them.
- give me your crossbows, quickly. John said as he pressed the gas and extended his hand to the two cherubs sitting behind his seat.
The two cherubs looked at each other, Cletus materialized his crossbow and handed it to the assassin, and the Skoda began to run with increasing speed until it reached the maximum it could reach, but it did not change one thing. The quads started to catch up with them, and with them another collision.
The quads and the drivers and passengers shooting from them, faceless shadows, were rushing after their target, pressing on the gas as hard as they could, and the quads were rushing towards their target with all their might and mad power, getting closer with each meter, and John Wick fighting them again showed no major emotions. , his face was only focused and cold, those who looked into his brown eyes saw only determination and eternal pursuit of the goal, but his current goal today was completely different from the one he lived a year ago, fighting the entire underworld.
Today it was different, but the same determination and drive were unchanged, so John with a golden crossbow in his hands pressed the brake again, turning the green Skoda around its axis several times, this maneuver made the Skoda lose its speed, but on the other hand, the speeding Quad were unable to respond to such a sneaky maneuver, and the drivers, empty ghosts, started shooting blindly, at the same moment Keenie crashed into Blitzo with her eyes widened to the limit and yellowish wings trembling because she saw in front of her a man who had let go of the steering wheel and was holding a repeating machine with one hand. he fired a crossbow at the structures passing them and with his left hand stretched out in front of Loona, he stopped enemy bullets by changing their shooting angle, it was a great loud moment full of screams and exchange of fire, and everything ended in one moment until the Skoda stopped in place and the silence was broken by a row of explosion in front of the front hood and the image of the volcano, it was there that the disintegrating ghosts struck by golden bolts piercing the steel and their dark forms of three opponents each, and the ghosts struck by their own bullets scattered into small fragments and the Quad colliding with each other exploded, changing the streets at a distance of a hundred meters into a road full of flames.
- this, this, this is, it's impressive, really. Cletus said, his teeth chattering and John reached behind him to the cherubim, handing the crossbows back to Cletus and extending his hand to Keenie.
- come on, give me a new loaded crossbow, quickly, they're coming. John said, Keenie handed over the new crossbow without complaining and the two trembling imps, Millie and Moxxie looked behind them at the broken rear window watching another approaching Quad.
- oh no, they are here again, how many of them were summoned by Helen and her subordinates. Moxxie asked, holding his head.
- from what I see, many. Millie said, barking her teeth and holding her husband's hand tightly.
- what now, Wick, what now, wall of fire, aaaa!. Shouted Blitzo before the Skoda made a sudden turn of one hundred and eighty degrees, they were facing the oncoming Quad and driving backwards, but that was not the end, because John again turned the steering wheel sharply so that the Skoda turned on its right side and everyone fell into each other, including cherubs into three imps and Loona landed face first on the window.
The Skoda, driving sideways, crashed into the fiery wall, cutting it in half with the power of the killer himself, Wick let go of the steering wheel again, blew out the fire with his left hand, and with his right hand in front of him, holding the crossbow, he started shooting, and in front of everyone's eyes, shiny golden arrows began to cut through the space, steel knocking down the wraiths chasing them, they even knock off the launched black bullets from their trajectory, this was one of the few moments when Blitzo forgot about his natural dislike for cherubs and squeezed Keenie's right hand, which, of course, did not go unanswered.
- Blitzo what are you?. Keenie asked, lying sideways on the scarlet pixie.
- it's stronger than me. Blitzo said before his composure returned and his yellow-red eyes turned to Keenie and Cletus.
- what are you looking at, soon Wick will need a loaded crossbow, quickly. Blitzo said hastily, and Cletus, following his advice, quickly loaded his golden crossbow with a new series of bolts, set the mechanism, and was already handing the loaded crossbow to Wick, replacing it with the unloaded one, which landed in Keenie's hoofed paws.
Wick continued firing, golden bolts flying over the heads of the cherubs and imps, tearing apart with incomparable precision the new hosts of faceless shadows pursuing them, destroying the Quad along with them, until everything shook as the green Skoda fell out of the wall of fire.
John grabbed the clutch, pressed the brake, turned the steering wheel to the right, causing the car to spin, everyone in their seats started spinning, pulled by the force and momentum of the natural laws of physics, the Skoda landed on its four tires facing forward, and everyone was upside down, while Loona with big eyes on the chest of a killer in a black suit.
- wow, it was amazing, you took me on the most beautiful journey, aaaa!. Loona shouted, looking into the killer's eyes, seeing something more than concentration in them and even a smile breaking through the mask of concentration, but everything was interrupted by the very loud roar of the engines.
- impossible. John said, looking behind him with everyone at the image of a wall of fire with two brown Monster Trucks falling out of it.
- but why, I saw how their tires were destroyed. Blitzo said panicked and the image of the rushing monsters on wheels made his horns tremble.
- I think I know what, look at their tires, they're living tires made from the bodies of ghosts!. Millie screamed, her black hair standing on end.
It was true what Millie saw, two large monsters on wheels were rushing along the ground, easily breaking through the wall of fire on black and white wheels, where hundreds of faceless heads and appearing guns were reflected, this was the moment when Loona, seeing the image of destruction on black and white wheels approaching she approached them with great speed, she placed her left hand on John's right hand lying on the gearbox, but that was only the beginning, because another bang from the other side made her grip become stronger, because on the other side, two wagons of a fast-paced car burst out of another corn field. the limits of the great locomotive's capabilities.
- it's a joke. Moxxie said as he hugged Millie in a tight hug.
- John. Loona whispered as John pressed the gas and accelerated the Skoda, driving, to everyone's horror, head-on to an approaching silver locomotive and two wagons.
- lead the way and trust me. John said and then he went out through the broken window, standing on the front hood of the car, making everyone tremble, and Loona, fulfilling the killer's will, although she didn't know what John was planning, trusted him to the end. Loona pressed on the gas and did not change the direction of the collision with the two-car locomotive.
- what is he doing!, attention. Blitzo shouted and tried to cover his eyes as he looked in shock at what happened.
John, using the recently learned power, clenched his hands with all his strength, with a grimace on his face and a scream, he hit his hands, releasing another powerful shock wave that easily shattered the streets and hit the locomotive, this was the moment when John, striking with his power, hit the hood and the rushing from the other side the locomotive shot into the sky and flew over everyone's heads, a huge bang shook the earth behind everyone's backs, the Skoda jumped and the multi-ton locomotive hit the ground, mowing down everything in its path, there was no force that could survive a collision with this power, Motocross, A quad and even two Monster Trucks were all completely annihilated, and since they were still charged with the killer's inner power, each of the ghosts fell to pieces, falling into oblivion once and for all.
The Skoda made one turn, stopping in place and everyone was catching their breath for a moment until everything was interrupted by Loona running out of the car, she was the first to reach the killer landing on his side, helping him to get up, doing it in a truly delicate and tender way, if not for the shock, and everything that happened to Millie she would certainly say something malicious, but she couldn't, neither because of the shock and even more the gratitude she felt for John, as well as Blitzo, who was currently clutching his stomach and finally hugging Keenie, who was now shocked by this gesture.
- John, you're fine. Loona asked even caringly, and her grip on the hands of the rising assassin was naturally strong as well as tender and gentle, and her eyes were focused only on John's brown eyes and his next sincere smile.
- no, nothing, I'm a little tired. John said, watching Loona return him a smile for a smile.
- thank you for everything. Loona said, hugging John, which of course finally shook everyone out of their momentary shock, not least of all what happened next.
Everything, the earth and the sky shook with the violent eruption and red flames coming out of the volcano, it was not an ordinary eruption, it was strange red flames which could only mean one thing.
- they are already there, my damned wife, why are you doing this?. John said.
- we have to stop her quickly. Loona said, jumping into the car and taking her seat, and John, following her words, jumped into the car and stepped on the gas, and the Skoda shot out with a loud screech towards the volcano where the breaking process was currently taking place.
Meanwhile, in a large tank between magma and gas, levitating in space, a woman in a tight rubber-steel suit was staring at her large target, and two scientists, a bald Hank in a green suit with glasses, were staring with equal intensity at an unusual object suspended between the magma. and gas, his friend, a gray-haired scientist named Steve in a blue suit, was staring with great curiosity at something that had not been created by human hands or by the hand of two forces.
Helen, Steve and Hank observed a strange machinery that looked like a single sphere made of many segments resembling the bricks of the Inca civilization, but they were different and each one between the gaps emanated a strange power, the sphere itself was suspended between magma and gases on four huge rods made of pure diamond and the the rods never stuck into the sphere itself, instead a strange power connected them to the sphere.
- this is amazing, no one from this world could have created it, it's definitely alien technology. Hank said, taking off his black glasses and his brown eyes watching the spinning ball with great intensity.
- this is why both sides forgot, they themselves were unable to create a perfect prison, so they used alien technology, ha, how obvious it is, this is the second truth that they reject to this day. She said Helen, straightening her black hair and her brown eyes revealing her joy that this day had come.
- Steve, Hank, you are men of science, what can you tell me about this?. Helen asked and Steve and Hank looked at each other and waved their arms.
- it's hard to say what it is, but I can say one thing for sure, it's a prison that draws its power from the heart of the planet from an eternal, infinite source of power, it's brilliant, brilliant in its simplicity, but the mechanism itself, I don't know how it can work. Steve said, his gray eyes scanning virtually every crease, looking for a tiny keyhole, but he never saw one.
- I don't know, my friend Steve is right, we don't know how it works, and what's worse, I don't see any keyhole here, it's as if this prison never had one. Hank said, scratching his bald skull nervously.
Helen, undeterred by the words of the two scientists, ran towards the ball made of alien technology, guided again by her feminine intuition, Helen placed her hands on the shiny ball and when she did, everything began to glow with powerful power, everything around started to tremble and the power that was released suddenly shot out from the ball into up in the form of red flames, breaking magma, gases and rocks blocking the way.
Everything was broken and the strange sphere made of bricks began to come together, one by one, brick by brick began to withdraw, forming only a large base, so Helen stood firmly on the shining base, watching the last bricks disappear at the base.
- like, how did you know?. Hank asked.
- woman's intuition. Helen said innocently with a happy smile from years ago when she was not the woman she was and is now.
- yes, women's intuition, now everything is possible, because so many of the laws of physics are broken. Hank said shaking his head and his eyes landed on the last object where the last of the bricks disappeared into the large disk of the base.
- it's him, Murmur. Helen said as she watched the last of the bricks fade away, freeing from the last chains the fallen asleep, the exile, the greatest of traitors.
Helen, Steve and Hank came closer to the waking fallen man, Murmur was similar in shape to a human, he also wore a black suit and had a human form, but there were elements that distinguished him from humans, the first of them was a hole in his left chest where there had once been heart and then one of the pieces of the broken Gold Token, his white face was as pale as the purest white, his pair of eyes glowed pure red and with great fury but as he looked at the three gathered, at Helen his eyes showed only joy as his grinning teeth and flowing black hair.
Murmur immediately constructed a perfect black full armor with elements of black feathers from the suit, looking like raven armor, and he himself, shaking hands tightly, looked at the gathered people, feeling the power they wielded, the same power he had.
- so you are my chosen ones, my dreams have reached the acolytes, they to you Helen and you to me, it's time to start, open our path to heaven. Murmur said, spreading his hands and the large disk of bricks began to rise high above the edge of the volcano, and another process now seemed inevitable.
L
Eventually, Murmur was liberated and the aftermath of its liberation left many wondering what would come next, who would be the next target.
