196. We are like-minded partners

However, before Bai Yi could go to find Radicia, someone came to him one step ahead, not looking for him in reality, but in the void.

"Yo, there's a new person coming." Bai Yi said something in the void, so the rest of the walkers put down what they were discussing and thinking about, and followed the guidance of Bai Yi's consciousness to focus on the two new souls.

"Tsk, church people, I smell a disgusting stench in them." Before the newcomers could introduce themselves, the lich preemptively said, "It looks like the internal cleanup of the church has begun. ”

Knowing that it was someone from the church, the missionary first showed a little friendliness to the newcomer and said, "Who are you?" Don't be afraid, it's safe here. ”

Maybe it's because it's very uneasy to act in the void that everyone fears as safe; Or maybe the two newcomers were not very comfortable with this way of communicating directly with consciousness, the two newcomers ignored the missionary, and Bai Yi waited a little impatiently, and took the initiative to poke one of them with his consciousness, and after a while, a large wave of negative emotions erupted from that new consciousness.

Despair, madness, frustration, fear and other emotions filled the entire void at once, making people feel very uncomfortable, Bai Yi silently observed for a while, and judged that this consciousness had completely collapsed, without the slightest trace of rationality, so he said to everyone: "This is hopeless, give up." ”

With that, he flicked it with his consciousness, and the soul of this newcomer was the principle of the Void Walkers, and entered the true sense of the void, so he 'saw' a wave of forces representing chaos and fury frantically eroding his consciousness, and he did not have the slightest idea of self-preservation, allowing the real void to quickly devour his consciousness.

This is the real void, an absolute forbidden area that even souls will devour!

"Alas, every time I see this scene, my heart is always not a taste." The Soul Armor Envoy said with some regret, and then changed back to a rather formal tone and said to Bai Yi: "Thank you for everything you have done for us, I hope Your Excellency." ”

"Although it's a dog management, without you, we'd be the same as that guy, right?" The astrologer said with trepidation.

"I should have been in a similar situation when I first came in, thank you for not giving up on me at that time." The paladin also thanked Bai Yi.

"That's because I still have a shred of reason in your consciousness." Bai Yi explained casually, and asked a little strangely: "I said what's wrong with you?" Suddenly become so hypocritical again? Shouldn't we all be accustomed to these things? ”

Yes, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened in the Void, in fact, it has been more than 6,000 years since the First Walker Magician entered the Void, and there must have been far more than 33 people who have entered the Void for various reasons in such a long time, but only 33 people finally decided to survive by taking advantage of it.

In fact, when the magician first entered the void, this was completely a forbidden area for life, if you don't use the strength to protect your consciousness, it will soon dissipate as quickly as the newcomer just now, the void is not a prison in the normal concept, but a forbidden area of life.

The physical death of living beings in this world does not mean the death of consciousness, the soul can still exist, otherwise there will be no soul armor, and unlike necromancers or demons, the Orderists do not have a very good way to destroy their souls, and banishing the void is the best way to destroy their souls.

Yes, in the normal understanding, banishing the Void is equivalent to killing souls directly, rather than imprisoning them inside, just like putting people in a vacuum, no one's soul can survive there for too long, and the power used to resist the erosion of the Void will eventually be exhausted, and an existence as strong as a magician will not last long.

But fortunately, when he was about to lose his bearing, he met Bai Yi, and his soul could miraculously tame those violent void energy, becoming stable and peaceful, although it was still a little cold, but it finally provided a good haven in this forbidden area of life.

"We are here to practice penance, hone our will and strength, and look for opportunities to get out of trouble, we are void walkers." This is how the magician fooled Bai Yi at the beginning, "But we're tired now, can we rest by your side for a while?" ”

In this way, Bai Yi accepted the four consciousnesses that were still lingering, and the Void Walker came into being. In return for providing a place to live, the magician taught Bai Yi something, and the other three walkers also chose to exchange memories with him, and even the prophet at that time reluctantly showed Bai Yi some fragments of his own memories.

And then in this way, the number of souls who are willing to live by Bai Yi's side gradually increased, and it has reached the current scale of 33 people.

That's why Bai Yi can exchange memories with everyone, why he can ban others and dare not complain, why everyone belonging to different camps has a more or less favorable impression of Bai, and why they call it hope.

This is not just the hope that they will find an opportunity to get out of their predicament, but also the hope that they can continue to exist.

Okay, let's get back to business.

In fact, when Bai Yi's strength was not very strong at the beginning, he couldn't accept everyone to his side, and many people disappeared into the void before he could find out; There are also some people who are unwilling to wait desperately in this endless darkness after being accepted in, and choose to give up; There are also some people who have firmly believed that they are dead, and their souls are either in chaos or dead, just like the newcomer, who has been abandoned by Bai Yi.

So after so many years, there are only 33 people who are willing to live strongly, waiting for hope to guide them out of trouble.

Like today's second newcomer, after spending some time to understand the way of consciousness communication, he was first surprised that there was life in such a place, and then he could distinguish who could live here, and finally after knowing that the missionary was the saint on the mural, he chose to meet the real death with dignity, but before he died, he still revealed some information about the inside of the church to the missionary.

He is the second chief judge of the Inquisition, he has always been very religious, silently defending his faith in the dark, but unfortunately he was exiled because of his involvement, but he did not expect to meet the legendary saint here.

The saint Joel, who walked alone in the abyss, successfully walked the path of sublimation, this is a typical story that almost every devout believer must read when pursuing sublimation, but unfortunately the truth behind this story is too cruel, the saint appeared in the place of exile, so what is the path of sublimation that he has pursued all his life?

Not everyone can withstand the spiritual impact of the collapse of faith.

Therefore, Bai Yi respected his own choice, and after seeing his soul disappear into the void, he turned back to the missionary and said, "How many are these?" Do you have to drive all your former colleagues to death? ”

"Can I be blamed for this?" Unconvinced, the missionary said, "I just told them the truth of the way of ascension, and it was their cowardice and faith that made them afraid to face such a cruel truth, and chose to escape with death." ”

"So speaking of which, it's better to be like us." The paladin said beside him, "At times like these, Fall is also a brave way to face it. ”

"Anyway, I said that when I go out, the truth will be revealed, and I'm afraid there will be more suicides by then, right?" The missionary said with great seriousness.

Alas, religious people are sometimes so awkward, and Bai Yi is also quite helpless about this, and can only think about the good things, such as this will completely shake the foundation of the church and so on.

"Did he provide any useful information?" Bai Yi turned to ask again, and the chief judge decided not to communicate with others, and only spoke to missionaries.

"The Inquisition is now largely abolished, and one of the three Grand Inquisitors has defected, one has been banished, and the last has been demoted to be the most ordinary ascetic; The Knights and Inquisitors suffered heavy losses, and those who survived were all taken into custody for interrogation, including those who were placed in other planes, and all were recalled to await purge. "At least for a long time, the Inquisition will not work, but don't be careless, their surveillance is still working." ”

"At the same time, the purge within the Church was also carried out, and in fact, except for the Pope himself, everyone in the Church was in danger, even the Templar Fortress was affected."

"Your previous battle has attracted the attention of the church's higher-ups, who know that someone has used forbidden forces in this battle, but they are not sure if it is you." The missionary then said that Bai Yi's interests were related, "But in my opinion, as long as you don't expose too many problems, they shouldn't be able to deal with you." ”

"How?" Bai also asked a little strangely.

"Because my beautiful and lovely student also caught their attention, and my magic was recognized by them, and my students also explained the process of knowing and teaching you, and they knew that you taught her this magic on my behalf." The missionary explained briefly, and Bai Yi understood the key.

No matter how gentlemanly and how dirty and skilled the missionary is in the void, his image in reality has always been a typical representative of the high, one of the most typical faces of the church, and now it is said that this face is now having an affair with that group of filthy contraband? Even the same! Flow! Combine! Unclean? The church was the first to jump in opposition.

Whoever opposes the saint Joel will smash his dog's head, this is the church's firm position, so Bai Yi is rubbing the face of this fallen gentleman, but he has a good image on the side of the church, no matter whether they doubt Bai Yi's true identity or not, at most they will secretly investigate, and they will never dare to blatantly do anything with him.

It is precisely for this reason that Bai Yicai skillfully avoided this purge storm, and even waited for the church people to take the initiative to visit, with a smile on his face that was brighter than a flower.

The person who came was Griward, the chief knight of the Great Knight who had been transferred from the Holy City, a burly middle-aged man, and behind him, stood the village girl Lady Radia, who had been redressed.

Now she is no longer wearing a linen skirt or student armor, but a set of special armor with beautiful workmanship but not enough protective area, the silver-white armor only protects the upper body, and deliberately outlines the girl's bewitching body curves, and even the shoulders are exposed; Underneath is a skirt that is too short, in order to prevent the skin of the thighs from being too exposed to attract the attention of others, black stockings are specially put on, which has the opposite effect completely; Even the head of the armor that was obviously supposed to protect the forehead was made like a chic hairpin.

Is this really armor? Is it really protective? Isn't it some kind of uniform or sex toy?

Wearing this armor, Reethia is exceptionally beautiful, in a heroic posture without losing the feminine softness and charm, showing her slender figure while adding a bit of majesty and solemnity, in a word, this look of Reethia has become more beautiful, cuter and better licked.

If she hadn't stubbornly combed her braids, Bai would have almost lost her recognition.

"Mr. Hope, it's a pleasure to meet you again." Laethia held the canon necklace in her hand, bowed slightly to Bai Yi, and prayed in a low voice, "May the gifts of God always protect you." ”

I'm afraid that your god will only come to protect me if I'm demented, right? Bai Yi secretly scolded himself, invited the two into the living room, and after asking Artie to pour tea, he himself continued to patiently fiddle with the few money jars at hand - after settling down in the past few days, various shops have begun to open one after another, this is Miya and the others went outside yesterday to buy him a new one, and they have planted new seeds of flowers and plants, and they didn't tell him what kind of flowers and plants they are, and they won't know until they sprout and grow, which can be regarded as some kind of surprise brewing, right? So Bai is more concerned about this.

He didn't take the initiative to speak, and the chief knight of the church had to take the initiative to speak in order to alleviate the embarrassment, "Master Hope, I heard your story from Laethia, and you said that Saint Joel is your friend?" ”

"Not just friends, but like-minded partners." Bai Yi corrected his speech, and then felt that this statement was easy to cause ambiguity, and corrected: "It is like-minded in some aspects. ”

He was afraid that he would be mistaken for a gentleman.

The Grand Knight Captain hesitated, considered the wording, and continued to ask, "Then you were back then"

"Ah, I just liked to go around the abyss, kill some demons and get some materials, and I happened to meet an old friend of Joel, we faced several dangers together and formed a deep friendship, but unfortunately he insisted on continuing to practice in the abyss, and we parted." Bai Yi smoothly told the story that had been arranged a long time ago, which he and the missionary himself had compiled together, and promised that there would be no flaws.
