Chapter 51: Demon
"Be careful, they have a '0' level seal. If anything goes wrong, retreat immediately."
Deacon Taylor warned.
Although the source of the news was a little difficult to explain, Roselle still chose to tell the Mechanical Heart.
This is not only for others, but also for yourself.
With the terrifying power of a '0' level seal that could affect an entire city, if something really happened, Roselle would definitely not be able to escape.
"clear!"
Feisommon and others nodded. They had all participated in operations and carried out many missions, and they knew that they should not insist on something that they should not insist on.
"Stay away from me. Keep at least a hundred meters away from me."
After instructing a few people, Taylor opened a black box he carried with him.
It is a Class 1 sealed object sealed by the Craftsman Church in the basement of St. Douglas Church, numbered "1-47", named "Eyeball of Heinas", and has the characteristics of being alive.
This seal can extend spiritual threads, and everything touched can be presented in the holder's mind, just as the holder sees it himself, so it is very suitable for finding extraordinary people hiding in the dark.
The negative effect is that "1-47" will constantly try to control people within a hundred meters around it. The closer you are to it, the more dangerous it is, and the lower the sequence, the easier it is to be controlled.
However, because the user knows the negative effects of "1-47", he can take targeted measures to prevent it. As long as he is not controlled instantly, he can break free from the spirit's line.
According to the church's tests, one needs to be at least Sequence 7 to avoid being instantly controlled by "1-47", but for a Sequence 7 Beyonder, this is still very dangerous.
But this is secondary. The main problem with "1-47" is that it is difficult to keep it properly when fighting the enemy, and it will become a secret doll if you are not careful.
Deacon Taylor's plan was to hand over "1-47" to Fesommon immediately once he found the target using "1-47".
Taylor has already told Fesomon the method of sealing "1-47". Just seal it in a metal vacuum box, and then send it back to the church as soon as possible.
After turning back to confirm that Fesommon and the others were far away from him, Taylor held "1-47" in his palm, closed his eyes and sensed it carefully.
As a Sequence 5 Beyonder, Deacon Taylor is not afraid of the negative effects of "1-47".
As the spiritual threads emerged one by one, the surrounding environment appeared in three dimensions in Deacon Taylor's mind.
Figures kept flashing in Deacon Taylor's mind.
Deacon Taylor used his powerful spiritual power to quickly search for extraordinary people who might be members of the Blood Cult.
"found it!"
Deacon Taylor opened his eyes suddenly, then quickly stuffed "1-47" into the black box and threw it to Fesomon.
Fesomon had already distanced himself from the other team members and was standing there alone, holding a vacuum pump, which was specially made by the Craftsman Church for "1-47" and could quickly extract the air from the box.
"Send signal!"
Deacon Taylor yelled.
Due to limited manpower, the two major churches had to disperse their personnel, led by Sequence 5 Beyonders in the two churches.
According to the plan discussed in advance, once the Blood Worship Cult is found, if they are just small fish and shrimps, they will be solved by themselves if they can be solved by themselves.
If you encounter the main force, send a signal immediately and the archbishops of the two major churches will come to support you immediately.
As for how to judge the main force, it is very simple, just see if the demigod of Sequence 4 is there.
Just now, Deacon Taylor was certain that the person hiding in the basement was a demigod, and Taylor knew that the demigod must have known that he had been exposed.
Therefore, we must act quickly, otherwise the demigod is likely to escape.
Because Taylor is a generalist and knows the gap in strength between him and others, he took out the second "1" level seal "1-36", named "Fallen Fist".
This is a Sequence 4 Lawmage's legacy after his death, and is a powerful offensive seal.
Not only does it have the passive effect of shocking and imprisoning the enemy, it also allows the holder to randomly obtain five extraordinary abilities below the Arbitrator Path Sequence 4.
Although there is a certain probability of obtaining the extraordinary ability of Sequence 9, it still cannot cover up the strength of "1-36".
"Mind Piercing!"
Seeing that the enemy had already rushed out, Deacon Taylor hurried over to block the escape route of the Blood Cult members.
Under the effect of "mental piercing", most people were stunned for a short time, but some people reacted quickly.
"Fallen!"
A deep voice sounded. It was from the red-robed Earl of Fulais. The obscene words of the Sequence 4 demigod almost made Taylor lose control.
He forced himself to cheer up, raised his right hand with "1-36" on it, and shouted in ancient Hermetic language:
"Demons are not allowed to exist here!"
This is the ability of the Arbitrator Pathway Sequence 6, which can make certain regulations and force everyone within a certain range to comply.
The knowledgeable Taylor immediately recognized that Count Fulais was a demon, and Count Fulais, who was half in the form of a mythical creature, was also a real demon.
"Execution!"
Taylor then recited another sentence in ancient Hermes, not hoping to kill Count Fulais, but hoping to delay a little more time.
"1-36" is strong, but it also has great negative effects.
It will constantly regularize the users, and over time, it will become part of a certain order.
According to church records, there was once a person who, due to long-term use, became a staunch supporter and enforcer of traffic regulations. He worked tirelessly on the road to maintain traffic and eventually died of exhaustion in the middle of the road.
Fortunately, Deacon Taylor is very spiritual and there are no obvious signs of regularization yet.
"snort!"
Count Fulais snorted coldly. Although Deacon Taylor's attack caused several Blood Cult members to die tragically, it did not cause much impact on Count Fulais.
"You are too weak!"
Count Fulais turned directly into a demon, his height instantly increased to more than three meters, revealing his mythical form.
"Close your eyes! Back off!"
Taylor didn't expect that the "1" level seal would have no obvious effect on Fulais, so he quickly asked the mechanical heart team members who were still nearby to stay away.
Boom!
Just as Count Fules was about to approach Deacon Taylor, a spear that was so pure that it seemed to be made of sunlight flew over from a distance.
The Archbishop of the Church of the Eternal Sun, Schmidt Rotluff, has arrived.
"Magama Sword!"
Count Fulais, who possessed demonic perception, easily dodged the attack and struck back with a backhand.
"Yang Yan!"
The bearded archbishop had shining eyes and opened his arms, as if embracing the sun and the gift of God.
A huge ball of light wrapped in sacred flames appeared in the air, as if it was going to ignite Count Fulais's flesh and blood and purify all filth.
As expected of a Sequence 3 righteous mentor, his strength is truly terrifying.
Schmidt saw Count Fures retreating frantically and did not continue his attack.
The possible "0" level seal has not yet appeared, so Schmidt doesn't dare to act rashly.
"Mr. Archbishop, I think you are more needed in the slums than here!"
When Count Fules's low voice sounded, Schmidt frowned unconsciously and turned his head to look in the direction of the slums.
『
"More than one, right?"
As Schmidt asked, he glanced towards the slums, hoping that Astin could control the situation.
"Two indeed!"
"You have also experienced the first '0' level seal, 'Devil of the Heart'. It can effectively affect targets within a certain range, causing their thinking ability to decline, making them careless and prone to making mistakes."
Count Fulais released his mythical form, seemingly not intending to fight anymore.
Schmidt nodded thoughtfully. No wonder he always felt like he was neglecting something these days.
As archbishops, Schmidt and Estin both knew that those in the Blood Worship Cult who were on the Demonic Path had the ability to sense danger, but they subconsciously forgot these characteristics of the Demonic Path.
In addition, people from the two major churches did not notice the suspicious points and subconsciously followed the guidance of the Blood Worship Cult.
"What about the other one?"
Schmidt seemed to have given up on taking down Count Fures and continued to ask.
"Another '0' level sealed object, 'Brothers' Heart to Heart', is divided into two parts."
"Its effect is also very simple. It diverts the enemy's attack to another part. That's why your attack just now appeared in the slums."
"But I still prefer its negative effects!"
Count Fulais smiled grimly and continued:
"It can magnify people's desires! It can make people become apostles of desire!"
It must be said that this "0" level seal was tailor-made for the Blood Cult. As a demonic way to control desires, especially for high-sequence beings, these negative effects can be ignored.
Unfortunately, for the sake of his plan, Count Fulais placed the other part in the slums and used the extraordinary characteristics of a Sequence 5 Apostle of Desire to strengthen its negative effects, allowing it to cover the entire slums.
"Is this all you planned?"
Schmidt didn't quite believe it. These extraordinary people from the demonic path, when they reached demigod, were no longer easily affected by madness. High intelligence and cunning were their hallmarks.
"Haha! Who knows?"
Count Fulais indeed did not finish what he said. The place where "Brothers' Hearts" was placed was not the node where God would descend. It was a deliberate misleading move by Count Fulais.
But Count Fulais didn't know whether he could confuse the two major churches. After all, in the original plan, Estin should have appeared in the eastern district of Kingdom Avenue.
"It's a good thing that Ai Siting didn't come, otherwise I probably wouldn't be able to leave!"
Count Fulais was somewhat relieved in his heart. Sequence 3 was much stronger than he had imagined.
Thinking of this, Count Fulais began to pay attention to the situation nearby. The time was almost up, and if he didn't leave now, it might be too late.
"archbishop!"
Before Count Fulais could act, a familiar voice came from behind him.
A ray of light rose up, and a huge curtain of light enveloped Schmidt and Count Fures.
Seeing Archbishop Schmidt in a rage, Deacon Taylor breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground. The ritual magic that could isolate the influence of the "0" level seal directly drained Taylor's spirituality.
Just now, while Count Fules and Schmidt were talking, Deacon Taylor took the opportunity to set up a large-scale ritual magic.
Because of the demonic perception ability of the Demonic Path, it is undoubtedly difficult to use ritual magic on the Demonic Path's Beyonders.
There's no way, the pre-swing of ritual magic is too long.
But Taylor is a Sequence 5 astronomer, which was called an astrologer in ancient times. He can prepare a lot of ritual magic in advance and has a great advantage in the arrangement of ritual magic.
Most importantly, the astrologer's astrology can interfere with the demon's perception to a certain extent, which makes the ritual magic arranged by Taylor not easily discovered by the extraordinary people of the demonic path.
"Pure white ray!"
Schmidt launched a powerful attack at the first move, and pure white light rushed straight towards Count Fules.
"slow!"
The moment the devil's words were uttered, Count Fules directly revealed his incomplete mythical form, with a thick layer of hard armor covering his entire body.
After narrowly avoiding the pure white ray, Count Fules directly burned the two curved devil horns on his head and forcefully attacked Schmidt's spirit.
Count Fures knew that it was basically impossible to make Schmidt emotionally unstable, so from the very beginning Count Fures' goal was to escape!
Chapter 52: Pervasive Despair
"What a blood cult!"
Schmidt yelled with anger in his eyes.
Even from this distance, Schmidt could sense the depravity emerging from the ghetto.
Needless to say, the Blood Cult must have staged a large-scale sacrificial ceremony in the slums. Who knows how many people will die!
However, Schmidt did not rush to the slums, but instead, with holy light burning all over his body, he continued to fight with Count Fures.
As Sequence 3 Saints, how could Schmidt and Estin be fooled by a Sequence 4 Demigod?
Although the two men didn't know what Count Fulais was up to, they were still keenly aware of something wrong, so they didn't take it lightly.
On the surface, Estin was in the East District of Kingdom Avenue these days, but in fact he just showed up and had returned to the church long ago.
If there is any problem, Aistin will respond immediately. At the same time, Schmidt also told the person in charge who stayed in the Church of the Eternal Sun that if the problem is out of control, the "0" level seal should be used immediately.
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio here!
...
"I should have thought of that earlier!"
Russell stared at Perri.
"Wha…what?"
Looking at Roselle's expression, Perri took two steps back and looked at Roselle with some fear and confusion.
"This is all a conspiracy of the Blood Cult!"
Russell closed his eyes and recalled the whole incident.
At first, when Count Fulais found out that his affairs were ruined by Roselle, he urgently changed his original plan.
Count Fulais first revealed his identity, and then released several members of the Blood Cult, focusing the attention of the two major churches on the nobles.
It was not until the two major churches concentrated most of their forces in the eastern part of Kingdom Avenue that Count Fulais continued his actions in the slums.
As for why the two major churches had no suspicion, Roselle felt that it was the influence of the "0" level seal.
It was this "0" seal that made Roselle and many investigators forget to investigate Leo, the key figure, and also made many people not think that this was a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Although Roselle didn't know what Count Fulais wanted to do in the slums, it was certain that Count Fulais was only one step away from success.
Moreover, Roselle suspected that a fight might have already broken out in the East District of Kingdom Avenue. Count Fulais used the "0" level seal, which gave Roselle some breathing space.
Otherwise, Roselle would not have thought of these things. Roselle did not think that he could resist the "0" level seal.
Roselle thought that Count Fules might have also thought of a way out.
When chaos breaks out in the slums, the two major churches will surely rush to the slums. If they cannot capture Earl Fures in a short time, they will probably let him go for the time being.
"What a calculated plan!"
Russell couldn't help but sigh that this series of plans was flawless.
"I have to go to church urgently. Look here..."
Russell thought about it and changed his words:
"No! Don't look at this place! It's going to get chaotic here soon. Go to the factory first to find Edwards and Green and ask them to leave quickly! You go with them!"
After giving a few quick instructions, Roselle ran towards the Craftsman Church.
boom!
"Haha! Die! Die!"
Russell had just run a few steps when a thin boy with a knife madly slashed at a fat middle-aged man with hatred in his eyes.
Some people laughed wildly and picked up stones from the roadside and smashed them hard on the heads of passers-by, causing a mixture of red and white to flow down.
For a moment, it seemed as if everyone in the slum had gone crazy. Fighting, screaming, and calling for help, all kinds of sounds filled the entire street.
『
"This…what's going on?"
Perri caught up, still not realizing what was happening.
"have no idea!"
Russell breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed like it was a little late!
"I know those two people. The middle-aged man is a pimp. He often forces people from the slums to become prostitutes. If they don't want to, he'll come to their homes every day to cause trouble. That's how the boy's mother was forced to death."
There was a bit of pity in Perri's eyes, and then he pointed at the one holding the stone and said:
"That guy has always been bullied, and almost everyone would kick him, but he never dared to resist. Today he finally stood up!"
As he spoke, Perri's mood became a little depressed.
"Be careful to control your emotions!"
Russell noticed something was wrong and reminded anxiously.
However, Russell suddenly felt that the anxiety in his heart was infinitely magnified, and he felt that it would be better to die than to live in anxiety.
"wrong!"
Russell slapped himself, then slapped Perri in the face.
"Calm down and don't get emotional!"
Russell tried hard to calm down, and slowly he finally returned to normal.
Under Roselle's guidance, Perri gradually calmed down.
"Captain, what should we do next?"
Perri asked as she tried to calm herself down.
"Let's find a less-traveled path to leave here first. After we find Edwards and Green, we'll stay away from the slums. This is not something we can stop."
Roselle answered calmly that he didn't know what would happen next, but he believed that Count Fulais would definitely not just kill people. Perhaps the evil god would descend directly in a while.
After looking around, Perri led Roselle out of the slums.
Perri is very familiar with this place, and she can just find Danny and the others by taking this road.
"Ah~ help me!"
From a windowsill, screams of pain resounded through the sky, but Russell didn't even look at them, he just lowered his head and continued walking forward.
It's not that I don't want to help, it's that I really don't have the ability to help.
This wide-ranging impact has amplified the emotions of many people, and the hatred and evil hidden deep in people's hearts are manifested at this moment.
People indulged their emotions wantonly, some laughed, some cried, some were furious, and some confessed...
But no matter which one it was, they all died in the end.
This strange situation made Russell more certain of his previous guess that this matter had just begun!
"Captain, look!"
Perri pointed to a house not far away, where Roselle had just been a few days ago. It was one of the places where sacrifices were made to the evil gods.
The gang members who had been entrenched here were now lying on the ground, with blood flowing from their bodies into the basement.
"There must be something wrong there!"
Perri said, looking at Russell.
Russell tilted his sore neck. How could he not know what Perri meant?
There is a high possibility that there is a critical point there, and if it is destroyed, the disaster may be over.
But would Count Fules not have someone keep an eye on such an important place?
Roselle felt that this was more like a trap, waiting for any official extraordinary person to appear and fall into it.
『
Chapter 53: The Devil's Trick
"Don't go in!"
Just as Russell was hesitating, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"you are..."
Russell looked back at the old man in front of him. Although he asked the question, he actually had a guess in his mind.
The old man in the Artisan Church clothing must be Archbishop Van Astin.
"I am the Archbishop of St. Douglas Cathedral, Van Esting."
really!
Russell showed a look of understanding, and then looked at the house full of corpses not far away.
"Mr. Archbishop, this is ..."
"A node!"
Archbishop Estin did not explain too much. Time waits for no one, and he had to destroy this place quickly.
Just as Roselle was about to continue speaking, he saw a strange-looking monkey emerge from behind Archbishop Estin and quickly move towards the building.
"Is this... an alchemical creature?"
Russell looked curiously at the little monkey that was exploring the way flexibly in the distance.
Russell specifically inquired about the abilities of the later sequences of the Universalist Path. After all, Russell didn't want to be an old scholar forever, making inventions there.
"Yes, but its intelligence is not very high, but its attack power is still good."
Archbishop Estin explained casually, then turned his gaze towards the strange house.
"squeak!"
A shrill sound came from inside the house, and then Russell saw a dazzling light shooting out from it.
Archbishop Estin's face changed drastically, and he retreated frantically with Roselle and Perri.
boom!
"Ahem!"
Russell bent over and coughed a few times, then looked up at the house not far away, which had become a ruin.
"Is this the arrival of the evil god?"
Russell was a little confused. How could this evil god still glow? It was more like the Eternal Sun had descended!
"It's not the evil god, it's Schmidt's holy light!"
Archbishop Estin explained.
"Schmidt?"
Russell had never heard of this person.
"The Archbishop of the Church of the Eternal Sun!"
...
"Haha! Mr. Schmidt, look at your masterpiece!"
Count Foulers looked at the dazzling light in the distance crazily.
All I can say is that he is worthy of being a Sequence 3 warrior. Even at such a long distance, he can still see the light produced by the attack. If it hits me, I will definitely melt like snow.
Count Fulais' eyes flickered and he was secretly frightened.
"A sealed object?"
Schmidt's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a moment.
Being able to divert such a powerful attack over such a large area, it must be a "0" level seal.
"That's right! In order to welcome the coming of God, we even destroyed a precious '0' level seal!"
Count Fulles didn't mind having a chat with the Archbishop. As long as he could delay for a while, he could evacuate directly.
Chapter 54: Blasting Operation
Russell picked his ears and looked at Archbishop Estin in disbelief.
"It should be the '0' level seal that diverted the attack!"
Archbishop Estin collected the little monkey, which was already in pieces.
It seems that the defense of this alchemical creature is average!
No! Not necessarily!
It should be said that the attack power of Sequence 3 strongmen is too strong!
"Is this the '0' level seal?"
Roselle felt a little dumbfounded. When Dumel asked Roselle to be careful, Roselle didn't feel anything. But now he really experienced it personally.
"This is not a node!"
Archbishop Aistin ignored Russell's sigh, but shook his head and sighed.
"Go find Fesom and the others, and work with them to destroy the other places where sacrifices were made to the evil god."
Archbishop Aistin said, and walked towards the ruins.
"Then...then you are..."
Russell was a little confused.
"I have to quickly destroy the effect of this '0' level seal, otherwise I don't know how many people will die!"
We still don't know where the evil god will descend. Instead of wasting time looking for him, we might as well destroy the "level 0" seal first.
As long as there are no large numbers of casualties, the trance ritual will lack energy and will naturally collapse on its own.
"General, are we going?"
Perri's eyes flickered as he stood beside Roselle, waiting for her to make a decision.
"well!"
Roselle sighed. To be honest, he didn't want to get involved in this matter. Evil gods sounded very dangerous!
The previous concern was only because they were worried that the "0" level seal would destroy the entire Trier, and Roselle would inevitably be affected by that.
But now the influence of the "0" level seal can be almost ignored. As for the arrival of the evil god, Roselle feels that as long as he squats in the church, he doesn't believe that the evil god can hit the church!
"Captain, look!"
Before Roselle could make a decision, Perri spoke first.
Looking in the direction of Perli's finger, Roselle saw an almost transparent light curtain, and then he felt the restlessness in his heart disappear.
As a fellow generalist, Roselle knew that Archbishop Estin had isolated the influence of the "0" level seal through ritual magic, which meant that Archbishop Estin might not be able to quickly resolve the seal.
"You go find Edwards and Green first, I'll go find the Mechanical Heart myself."
After thinking for a long time, Russell decided to go and help.
It's not that he wanted to be a hero, but he felt that if he didn't go, he would have a rift with the Mechanical Heart team, and then it would be difficult to make his own potion.
"You must be careful not to have too many emotional ups and downs."
Roselle gave a few words of advice. Although the seal had been isolated, they still had to be careful, as there might be a member of the Blood Cult hiding in some corner.
And perhaps because the scope of influence is too large, the impact of the seal on emotions is not particularly great. For extraordinary people, as long as they pay attention to some problems, it will not be a big deal.
"good!"
Perri nodded and did not ask to follow Russell.
As for official Beyonders like Mechanical Heart, wild Beyonders like Perli are somewhat repulsive.
...
"Captain, Ryan and his men have already set off with some explosives!"
Simon said as he saw Fesomon coming out from underground.
As soon as Feisuomon put "1-47" back, he took out a "2" level seal. This was the limit of what Feisuomon could bear.
"Do they have enough manpower?"
Now most of the members of the two major churches are heading east to Kingdom Avenue to encircle and suppress the members of the Blood Worship Cult.
Some members of the Blood Cult also ran to other places in Trier in advance to stir up trouble in order to distract the attention of the two major churches.
Although they knew it was an open conspiracy, in order to maintain stability, the two major churches had to send some people to deal with it.
"That's about enough. With Deacon Damian following Ryan and the others, it won't be a big problem."
Simon replied.
"That's good, you can take the rest of the people and go quickly!"
Hearing Fessomon's order, Simon was stunned for a moment, then asked:
"What about you, Captain?"
It should have been the captain who led them there!
"I have another mission and need to take '2-058' to treat the wounded."
Fesomon pointed to the seal in his hand and said.
Simon showed an expression of realization, he had also heard of this sealed object.
The "2nd" level sealed item "God's Mercy" can heal spiritual trauma and is perfect for treating those people in the slums whose emotions are magnified.
"Then I'll set off first!"
Simon didn't hesitate any more and immediately set off with his men.
Their team did not have a deacon following them, so their strength was already relatively weak. Now that they had lost their Sequence 7 captain, they had to be even more careful.
...
"Roselle? You are..."
As soon as he arrived at the fifth block, Simon met Roselle who was about to go to the Mechanical Heart.
"I was just about to go look for you guys!"
Russell said breathlessly.
"I met Archbishop Ai Siting, and he asked me to find you and work with you to destroy those places where evil gods are worshipped."
"Okay, then come with us!"
Simon pointed to the team behind him. Roselle took a look and saw five or six people. Except for Jereff and Selina, whom he knew, Roselle did not know the others. They should be from other teams of the Mechanical Heart.
"Simon, how do we destroy those places?"
Although the buildings in the Fifth Block are all old, they are not so heavy that they can be completely destroyed.
Most importantly, to what extent is destruction acceptable?
We can't just knock the house down, right? That won't stop the evil spirit from coming.
"Use explosives!"
Simon patted the backpack on his back and continued:
"This is all thanks to you! If you hadn't told Ryan how to improve the gunpowder, we would have been in a lot of trouble this time."
Russell looked at the bulging bag of explosives carried by the pedestrian and his eyelids twitched.
If even a spark appears, none of the seven or eight people in the group will survive!
There was no conversation along the way. Roselle soon followed Simon's team to the place where they first discovered the worship of the evil god.
"Don't go in, just put the explosives outside, just put more!"
There was no telling what kind of danger might be in the house, and it would be too troublesome to deal with, and there might even be a risk to one's life, so Simon simply went all out.
"What about the people nearby? There may still be people around here!"
Selina reminded that with such a large amount of gunpowder, if there were people nearby, it would be impossible for them to survive.
"It's unlikely that there's anyone nearby, but let's go check it out anyway!"
Simon hesitated for a second or two, but decided to send three people to check the surroundings.
"People nearby may also be members of the Blood Cult, so be careful and drive them away if you meet them."
Simon gave a warning to the three people who went to search.
Because Russell knew about explosives, he was left behind to place them.
Chapter 55: Advent
The explosives that Ryan improved were actually just more powerful black powder, far less powerful than yellow gunpowder, so they had to be used in larger quantities.
"Simon, how many places like this are there in the ghetto?"
Russell asked as he stacked the pre-loaded gunpowder.
"More than twenty!"
Simon replied somewhat uncertainly.
"More than twenty!"
Russell stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Simon in shock.
"The amount of gunpowder required is not a small amount, and it is not something that can be destroyed in a short time at such a long distance."
Russell didn't think they had much time to do this slowly.
"We only need to take care of these in Block 5. If there is still time, we can help Operation Purification."
Simon clapped his hands and looked around at the gunpowder that had been placed.
"Prepare!"
The three people who went to search the nearby area have already returned. Even if there are still people left nearby, they can no longer be cared for. Time is limited and we must race against time.
Roselle and the others hid far away, and Simon picked up a Ryan crossbow, loaded it with an explosive arrow and shot it out.
Bang!
With a loud bang, smoke and dust spread outwards wildly, affecting Roselle and others.
"Ahem!"
Several people coughed and waved their hands to disperse the dust in front of them.
"Let's go! To the next place!"
Simon pointed into the distance and led the way.
...
"Ha! Mr. Archbishop, we'll see each other again someday!"
Count Fulais was covered in blood and looked miserable, but he still looked excited.
Seeing that the barrier created by the ritual magic was crumbling, Count Fules did not intend to waste time with Schmidt any longer.
"It's almost time. God is about to come. I won't keep you company any longer!"
Count Fules jumped in front of the barrier and interrupted the ritual magic with a punch. The ritual magic, which had already reached its limit, was completely ineffective this time.
Schmidt saw that Count Fures wanted to leave, so he did not chase him.
From the battle just now, Schmidt could feel that Count Fules should have at least a "level 2" seal on him.
This seal made Count Fulais as hard to catch as a loach. Even in a fixed space, Sequence 3 Schmidt still failed to cause fatal damage to Count Fulais.
"I'm going to go take a look at the slums. You continue to arrange the people here to encircle and suppress the members of the Blood Worship Cult."
Schmidt gave Deacon Taylor some instructions and immediately left for the slums.
"Ah? Am I not from the Artisan Church?"
Deacon Taylor looked at Schmidt's back and muttered.
...
"This is the last one!"
Simon looked at the building in front of him, a gleam in his eyes.
"What about the other districts? Are they all destroyed?"
Russell took a breath with difficulty. This journey really exhausted him.
"right!"
Simon nodded and said:
"The Purifying Light team has more people than us. They've already finished. Now they should only need this one!"
After hearing Simon's words, everyone showed excitement in their eyes.
Russell also let out a sigh of relief. It was finally over!
Bang!
With the last loud bang, Russell sat down on the ground and looked up at the dim sky.
On Archbishop Estin's side, Schmidt also looked up at the sky
"I think things are definitely not that simple. He must have some conspiracy!"
Schmidt remembered the smile on Count Fures' face when he left, and felt a little uneasy.
Although Aistin had destroyed the "0" level seal and the media where other evil gods might descend were also destroyed, Schmidt felt that Count Fulais was not someone who would give up easily.
"You mean, his plan isn't over yet?"
Aistin came to Schmidt.
"I received a revelation from God. He said that the Lord of the Abyss will not succeed in coming!"
Schmidt turned his head to look at Aistin, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end what came out of his mouth turned into a sigh.
Estin also glanced at Schmidt. Even if he didn't say it, Estin understood what Schmidt wanted to express.
Failure does not mean that it will not come. If it comes and is driven back, it will also not be successful.
"Something's wrong over there!"
Aistin suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked towards the place in the distance where the wind and clouds suddenly changed.
On a ruin, Count Foulers laughed heartily.
"Hahaha!"
"Even if you rack your brains, you will never guess that I am the key to God's coming!"
Count Fulais had now completely transformed into his demonic form, and he stood at the first place destroyed by Roselle and the others, triggering the final step of the ritual.
In an instant, the dead turned into wronged souls, burned by emotions, and transformed into wisps of energy. The aura of Count Fulais became stronger and stronger, as if he was moving towards the level of true God.
...
"Then...what's going on over there?"
Russell pointed to the sky in the distance. Dark clouds were rolling and the wind was howling. Anyone who saw it could guess that something bad was going to happen.
"This... could this be the arrival of the evil god? Should we go over and take a look?"
Jerry looked at the distance in horror. This scene could probably only be caused by the arrival of an evil god.
"I don't know, but this is definitely not something we can interfere with. Let's go back to the church first!"
Simon was still rational and knew his own weight, so he didn't rush forward.
"ah!"
As the group was getting ready to set off, one of the team members suddenly shouted.
When everyone looked back, they saw that the team member had horns and scales growing all over his body and was about to lose control.
boom!
Simon didn't hesitate and instantly dealt with the out-of-control team member.
"Pay attention to your emotions, I'm afraid the devil has indeed arrived!"
Simon glanced at the changes in the distance with a grim expression and gave a loud warning.
Roselle's mood was also a little fluctuating, but because he had deliberately controlled it before, he quickly adjusted himself.
"Hurry up and leave!"
...
"Welcome to the Lord of the Abyss!"
Count Fulais knelt on the ground and said with fiery eyes, but before Count Fulais lowered his head, his body suddenly shook.
"No! You are not..."
Count Fules roared and retreated madly, as if something terrifying was chasing him.
However, Count Foulers did not escape danger. Before he could finish his words, his stomach suddenly began to swell, as if a baby was about to come out of it.
Not far away, Estin and Schmidt had just arrived and saw Count Fules undergoing a strange change.
"This… this is…"
Aistin's eyes were full of shock, and he looked at Schmidt with some confusion.
"It should be the starry sky!"
Schmidt replied in a deep voice.
Estin's eyes flickered, and he didn't ask any further questions, because Schmidt definitely didn't know either.
The secrets of the "starry sky" were not accessible to Sequence 3 Beyonders like them. Just seeing the evil god from the starry sky from afar was enough to make Aistin feel uncomfortable.
