Chapter 39: Cataclysm 2
"Catherine, be careful!"
"Bang dang!"
A silver sword with a flowing silver brilliance blocked the black claws that smashed into Catherine, and Catherine, who was crouching on the ground, looked up at Douglas above her head, the young swordsman just looked at her with worried eyes, she frowned lightly and shook her head, indicating that she was fine.

"Drink!"
"Brush, brush, brush!"
Douglas gritted his teeth and pushed forward, and with a few swings of his long sword, the leopard-shaped monster in front of him was split into several pieces, and for a moment the inky juice splashed everywhere, and a fishy smell filled the air.
Catherine staggered along with Douglas's careful support, and she looked at the streets filled with black fog, and a pair of green eyes peered at them in the depths of the darkness.
"It's going to be given up again, isn't it?"
Douglas was cautiously observing the movements on all sides, after all, the attack of the undead creatures was not a joke, but Catherine on the side asked such a sentence. For a moment, his face changed, and he couldn't give a reasonable answer.
Abandoning the Tulip Kingdom is a tacit fact in the Temple of Light, but this cannot be said on the table, although most of these people were forced to starve and were conquered by the "Fruit of Life", although they were secretly divided into the cultists of the Ban Manor, but on the surface, everyone was a large number of people of the Empire of Light.
In short, there are some things that can be done but can't be spread out, after all, people still have to have a little face in the world.
......
......
Castle Lord's Mansion.
In the living room, Catherine lay on a bunk, and several white-robed Temple of Light staff were casting holy light on her right leg.
"Zizizi!"
I saw circles of hazy white light enveloping the surface of her wound, and drops of black pus slowly overflowed from her body, and a putrid stench spread out in this space.
"Woohoo!"
Catherine couldn't help but turn her head to look at the slap-sized laceration on her right leg, the originally blackened flesh turned bright red after some purification, and it seemed that the residual poison in it had been cleaned up.
At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties with a Chinese face walked into the house, and after bowing to Catherine, he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, the body of the city lord has been found. ”
Douglas looked at Catherine's gloomy expression and couldn't help but sigh lightly, after all, she had an accident to find the city lord here, but she didn't expect that this city lord's luck was really not very good, and he also returned to the sea of stars with his people.
"Look! Dragon! It's a fire-breathing dragon, and it's flying towards us!"
"What are you talking about? uh, dragons, run!"
......
......
There was a commotion outside, Douglas was the first to run out quickly, everyone in the yard was panicking, he looked up at the night sky, there was a vague figure of a dragon in the night sky above, its eyes were bubbling with leaping red soul fire, and it flew towards this direction with bone wings.
Damn! How can there be a dragon here?
"Slayer the Dragon Yuan, the evil dragon that the Starry Sky Sword Saint Bambets slain a thousand years ago!!" Catherine walked up to him at some point, her eyes looking at the bone dragon that was constantly spitting and destroying.
When Douglas heard this, his eyes were shocked, and his fists clenched suddenly. How could he not know about this stubble? Isn't the legendary Dragon Slaying Yuan exactly in the territory of the Tulip Kingdom?
A thousand years ago, the Starry Sky Sword Saint Bambets single-handedly killed this dragon who was killing on a large scale, but where the dragon's body went is still a mystery, I didn't expect it to be really thrown into this dragon slaying abyss, didn't I find it after rummaging through it?
"Boom, boom, boom!"
While the bone dragon outside wreaked havoc on the brightly lit Castle Lord's Mansion, Catherine in the basement was sweating profusely and waving her wand and chanting awkward incantations. Hurry, hurry, hurry!
As Catherine's magic spell was recited, the golden Mofa scroll in her hand automatically flew up and hung in the air without wind, and golden Mofa runes similar to tadpoles quietly appeared, "whirring" countless magical elements gathered at great speed.
"Buzz buzz!"
A low buzz sounded, and everyone in the Temple of Light opposite Catherine was surrounded by the white light of an octagonal magic array, and a colorless spatial ripple vibrated in all directions.
"Boom!"
The basement collapsed, and a massive bony claw poked through the ground and grabbed Catherine, who was on her back.
"Get out of the way!!"
With a loud shout, Catherine looked back blankly, the bone dragon was above the entrance of the cave, drops of warm blood dripped on her wide forehead, and she saw a waist-thick turquoise branch running straight across the top of her head, this is Douglas's arm?
"Ahh
As the bone dragon's claws retracted, Douglas's phytochemical arm was ripped away, causing him to howl in pain.
"Douglas!"
Catherine hugged him in shock, and with one free hand, she tore off the shell pendant between her necks, and a dazzling white light flashed, wrapping the two of them and disappearing into the basement in an instant, and at the same time, the magic array on the opposite side suddenly lit up, and the rest of the people inside turned into more than a dozen humanoid lights and shadows and disappeared.
......
......
In the early morning, on an overgrown hillside, Catherine squatted beside Douglas, her face with tears on her face caressing the sleeping Douglas with her eyes closed, his eyelashes beating from time to time in his sleep, and he could clearly feel the pain brought by his body.
"Catherine, don't waste your magic!" Douglas woke up at some point, but Catherine was still panting and banishing his planted left arm with her magic, as the flesh of his arm was hardening into turquoise branches.
"When did you know who I am?" asked Douglas after a moment of silence, and finally asked with a bitter face, the girl strangely calm about herself.
Catherine looked away from him and replied calmly, "Last time you were going to help you with your baptism. ”
Douglas shook his head and smiled bitterly, he should have thought about how he could have fallen asleep for no reason during the last baptism? And her expression was very strange after that, it turned out that this was the case!
Routine baptism is a new term since the Cataclysm, the Holy Light Purification Ritual conducted by the Temple of Light to prevent its own team from being contaminated with undead substances, and Douglas's purification has always been carried out by Catherine.
"Well, I'm sorry, I'm bothering you again!" Catherine sobbed as she sobbed and apologized to him sincerely.
Douglas was so frightened by her dripping eyes that he looked at her with amusement and comforted, "Catherine, what's wrong with you?
Catherine's tears flowed down like a floodgate, and finally she choked up and said, "You do this, but I can't repay you!"
When Douglas heard this, he smiled slightly, and then said with a serious face: "I know, what you like is Bambets of Ban's Manor!"
Catherine's face was pale, and she pretended to be calm and glanced at Douglas, not believing that her mind was being seen through: "What are you talking about? How could I like him?"
Douglas stared at her with a smile on his heart, a look that you don't hide from me: "Who was the one who kept his face sad during the days of his disappearance?
Catherine was dumbfounded, she realized that she really had no talent for concealing her emotions, so wouldn't the entire Temple of Light know about it?!
Douglas looked at Catherine, who was flushed, and wondered how the famous, but unmet owner of the manor, had captured her heart.
After a while, Douglas solemnly suggested to Catherine, who was in a calm mood: "Catherine, leave the Temple of Light, you should know your situation!"
Catherine was silent, of course she understood the dilemma she liked to go to Bates: the Temple of Light and the Ban Manor were opposed, especially after the owner of the manor planned to form a new sect!
Yes, why has the Ban Manor been repeatedly attacked by unknown figures? Of course, there are some greedy magicians peeping at it, but don't forget the impact of the rise of the Ban Manor on the Temple of Light!
First is the magic talent awakening potion, its non-damage lifespan advantage challenges the light fruit of the Temple of Light, then the Dou Qi Channeling Elixir captures the body and mind of a large number of people who try to cultivate Dou Qi, and finally the famous magic book cleansing potion, which may make the magic that disappeared in the past reappear one by one, or it is exclusively produced by Ban's Manor!!
In other words, the popularity of Ban's Manor is expanding day by day in mainland Ireland, and this good reputation makes the Temple of Light extremely jealous, and the business is too good, and the "Irish Food and Clothing Plan" that came out later is even more robbing their lovely believers, which can be said to be a financial road.
Well, the reason is very clear, the Temple of Light and the Ban Manor are mortal enemies, and the Temple of Light wants to secretly stumble over the Ban Manor all the time, as for the strategy of suppression on the surface, I will not consider it, lest people think that they are too small to accommodate a small manor.
Catherine blinked, she hadn't thought that far ahead, after all, she was just unrequited love, and it was still a question that the owner of the garden could take a fancy to herself.
Suddenly, Catherine's eyes lit up, she remembered the question she had ignored for a long time, and when she thought of this, she looked at Douglas and asked urgently, "Douglas, how did you become a plant?"
Douglas's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he struggled to get up to tell her something, but in the middle of his body, countless white finger-sized roots suddenly stretched out to envelop him.
"Remember!Don't look it up!!"
This is what Catherine read at the last moment through the gap covering the root system, according to the shape of Douglas's mouth, is there something terrible in this??
