Chapter 56: Treasure in Progress X.II.

At the time agreed with his friends, half an hour ago, Ye Qi was ready to leave.

Zilyan and his party had been persuaded to leave fifteen minutes earlier; For this reason, Ye Qi had to agree, the half-blood leader of the Blood Alliance Tower, who entered the bridge on the other side to meet his request - the other party's intention to invite him was obvious, although he was refused, but it was obvious that with the other party's character, he would not give up at all.

In this regard, Ye Qi could only shrug his shoulders helplessly.

After learning about the rules of the bridge on the other side, Ye Qi had already decided not to join any organization.

As for setting up a small organization on your own?

Although it was not completely rejected, the possibility is basically none.

After all, there, he was destined to be just a passer-by now, and it was impossible to stay permanently - there might be more opportunities there, but Ye Qi didn't think he could achieve his ultimate goal; To put it simply, in order to fulfill his agreement with the strange wolf, he must move forward in a faster way.

The bridge on the other side seems to be fast, but it is actually very slow.

Otherwise, among the seven strongest people in the world, there would not be none of them from there.

Of course, some necessary things still have to be done; For example: St. Dego and Kirley are unidentified figures.

This was inevitable for him, as an enemy of the Holy See.

In perception, it belongs to Kirli and Smoy's breath, and it is still on the two-kilometer sand dune, in fact, Ye Qi does not need to perceive it at all, and that eager, sharp and hateful gaze is really impossible to ignore.

Ye Qi's body melted into the shadows, and the next moment he appeared behind the two of them. Wave your hand.

When Ye Qi's figure suddenly disappeared. Kirley and Smoy were already taken aback. Instinctively, the whole body is on guard.

However, such a vigilance is basically useless in the face of Ye Qi's knife; It's as if you see a truck coming towards you, and you stretch out your arms to stop them, and the result is self-evident; As for what not to dodge?

If...... If you can dodge, you don't need to stretch out your arms to block it.

Under the bleak moonlit night in the desert. A faint blue sword flashed on the ground, with its own trajectory, blooming with its own unique light, bringing the strange bright red.

Smoy fell straight to the ground, his head flying even higher; However, there was a look of utter disbelief on his face, and it was clear that he would never believe until he died that he had become Kirli's shield - yes. Just as the sword flickered, Kirli grabbed the hem of Smoy's clothes. Throwing it onto the sword, using this block, he managed to gain a bit of a gap, and dodged the must-kill blow.

Ye Qi raised an eyebrow and looked at Kirli who was standing in the distance - although he had already learned from some previous news that the other party was not a good person, with enough insidiousness and cunning; However, judging from the scene just now, it seems that he has to deepen the impression of the other party again.

"We needed a good communication...... And this kind of communication is not suitable for the presence of other people! ”

Killi didn't show any regret or uneasiness about what he had done, and he stood in front of Ye Qi unusually calmly, talking about it.

"You see, I inadvertently offended you before, and it wasn't intentional on my part! It's a trap...... A trap laid by a man named Hortlier - this shameless fellow has put you and us in a dangerous opposite position, and whether you win or we win, we will pay a terrible price! ”

Taking a deep breath, a sad expression appeared on Kirli's face.

And now, it is evident, his purpose has been accomplished; We've really paid a terrible price, and we're still making mistakes; I think they will all hate you and see you as an enemy, except for me...... And so that we don't get used again, I can only choose to do this - it's cruel, but it can keep more people safe, isn't it? ”

When Kirli spoke, there was no pause or hesitation, the whole speech was fluent, and the expression on his face also matched such words, making appearances that fit the scene and atmosphere one by one, but it made Ye Qi feel even more disgusted with the person in front of him.

As a hostile position, disgust is inevitable, but it is rare to be able to reach such a level at this moment.

Ye Qi no longer even wants to say a word to the other party - in the face of sophistry, Ye Qi will feel impatient, and in the face of brazen sophistry, Ye Qi will directly crush such sophistry.

Admittedly, as the other said, Hotlier may not have had any good intentions, but they themselves were by no means as innocent as Killey himself claimed - it was ridiculous that a group of greedy people had been taken advantage of and shouted innocence, as if they were eating in a restaurant and tasting delicious food while trying not to pay.

Anything you get, you will have to give.

Obviously, Kirli is the kind of person who wants to get but doesn't want to give, and is able to find enough reasons for himself to excuse himself; It's like he used Smoy as a shield, but he said that it was for Ye Qi's sake and for the sake of a reasonable communication environment between the two sides.

Faced with such an approach, Ye Qi gave a neat answer - the Enma Knife came out of its sheath again.

Boom!

With the sound of metal, the Enma Knife slashed at Kirli's neck with a mysterious trajectory; The other party didn't want to think about it, and when Ye Qi made an attack posture, he quickly stepped back.

For Kirli, he is prepared with both hands at any time, persuading Ye Qi while looking for a way out; Both the former and the latter are necessary for Kirli - if the former succeeds, everyone will be happy, and he will have more time and means to get what he wants.

And the latter's words are forced to do at the most critical moment - in the face of Ye Qi's attack, the deputy city lord of Spring City. There is no confidence in itself. And wait until Ye Qi comes out of the knife. Only then did he realize why he didn't have the same confidence as before.

The feeling of being completely shrouded in the sword, not seeing through any action, losing any way out, as if he was about to be killed, made Kirli shocked, and the confidence on his face when he talked about it before instantly turned pale, and even a touch of gray appeared.

But. Soon, such a face was replaced by a hideousness - being able to survive on the bridge on the other side, and becoming the deputy of such a powerful force as Quanshui City, Kirli is undoubtedly not lacking in desperate spirit; When cornered, Kirli naturally chose to die together.

The white holy light suddenly enveloped Kirli's body, and then, those rays of light burned rapidly like flames.

And just as the light on Kirli's body was burning, Ye Qi suddenly felt a dangerous aura, and the strange wolf in his heart said even more hurriedly: "Retreat!" ”

Ye Qi didn't think much of it at all. Several [Shadow Shuttles] appeared directly twenty kilometers away. A huge explosion appeared—

Rumble!

The explosion with a flickering white light tore off all the sand within a radius of five kilometers, and the overwhelming sand flew high, obscuring the sky, and in the more central position, everything within a radius of about thirty yards, instantly vaporized, and a large crater twenty yards deep appeared there.

Feeling the vibration of the sand beneath his feet, Ye Qi waved his hand to block the heat wave that was blowing in his face—it was not a simple hot wind in the desert, but a wave of air that was caused by the explosion, enough to roast a person.

After a full ten seconds, such a wave of qi disappeared, and Ye Qi stared at the flattened and even deeply sunken sand pit, and couldn't help frowning - it was not surprising that the other party was able to use the Holy Light, according to the information he received, he suspected that the other party was from the Holy See, and the appearance of the Holy Light at this time was just to confirm such suspicions.

But the self-explosion of the other party as if he was a martyr made him suspicious - because, in that kind of self-explosion, Ye Qi found something very different.

Martyrs, at first undoubtedly the most pious expression of the Holy See, in the face of the invasion of dark creatures, people who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die were honorific, but since the advent of the Holy Age, such a title has changed, and has become a contemptuous title, in fact, such a 'weapon', to be called as such, no one thinks it is inappropriate, after all, they are just a group of walking corpses without thoughts and feelings.

And just the moment when Kirli blew himself up before, Ye Qi felt the breath of the walking dead from the other party's body - as if he was a living person who had become a vegetative person in the next moment.

"Do you feel it?"

In order to confirm that it was not his hallucination, Ye Qi asked the strange wolf.

"Of course, it's just a little trick!"

The strange wolf nodded smugly and said disdainfully.

"What the hell is going on?"

Ye Qi continued to ask.

"It's very simple, this guy in front of me is just a puppet, but a puppet of flesh and blood - using the spells of the school of the undead, it is not difficult to do this, but I know that there is a more convenient and direct way to do it!" The strange wolf sneered fiercely, "That old opponent of mine has a magic that can achieve the same effect, which is not only safer, but also will not be detected by detection spells and magic spells; Some restrictions are needed, though! ”

"What kind of restrictions?"

Ye Qi asked, thinking about the possible connections in his heart - after all, no matter what kind of restriction it is, it is an indisputable fact that Kirli is being controlled in front of him, and the person who can control Kirli is naturally a high-ranking member of the Holy See.

You can perform a magic technique that can be called a secret art, but if you don't come from the Holy See, you can't do it at all!

However, the identity of this person ......

Ye Qi groaned in the bottom of his heart.

The strange wolf ignored the muttering of his contractor, but replied very dryly: "Since childhood...... Well, or to be precise, it starts from the baby, and it takes about two months to complete it completely! And, with the help of a few props, one of which is a hundred-year-old statue of that guy - the kind that must be religiously believed! ”

More than a hundred years old, a statue that is devout and faithful?

Ye Qi frowned slightly—although this seemed to give a specific search range, only Ye Qi himself understood. How many churches are there over 100 years old in Lorante. Not to mention the interior of the Sacred Forest District. In the rest of Lorante alone, there are no less than a hundred.

And the devout faith?

The church that has been in existence for more than a hundred years, no matter how small, is enough to prove his piety.

"Is there a size limit?"

Ye Qi, who was thinking, suddenly thought of an extremely important point and immediately asked.

"Of course there are, you need at least a thousand believers!"

The strange wolf nodded appreciatively at the quick reaction of his contractor, and gave an accurate answer.

At least a thousand believers!

Again narrowed the scope of the search. Ye Qi's brows relaxed slightly-after the initial blockade of the free era, and the intermittent war in between, there were not many churches with a thousand people in Lorante, except for the Holy Forest District, and they were all in larger cities, which was naturally good news for Ye Qi.

"Is there an answer?"

The strange wolf looked at Ye Qi, who had finished thinking.

Well, there are probably some more accurate answers - the base of the population is everything, and churches of that size are rare in Lorente! Of course, more likely. The other party is from the Sacred Forest District! ”

"Sacred Grove? No, no, it's impossible! ”

The strange wolf directly denied his contractor's speculation.

"For what?"

Ye Qi frowned and asked.

"Because. In the Sacred Grove, in that guy's lair, there is only one statue that can really be called a devout faith—the one in the largest church, do you think someone will break that one without anyone discovering it? If that's the case, I think it's great news for us! ”

The strange wolf shrugged his shoulders and said a slightly chilled joke.

"Well, that's good news, and I think it's worth checking out the origin of this deputy lord of Kirli...... Of course, after getting what we need! ”

Ye Qi nodded, glad that the scope of the investigation had been narrowed down again, and at the same time he had not forgotten the true purpose of this trip.

"Of course!"

The strange wolf couldn't wait to shout.

Herod!

After a loud whistle, Groening fell from the sky in the distance, Ye Qi turned over and got on his horse, and disappeared into the sky in a few breaths.

The traces of the huge explosion on the ground were quickly smoothed out by the wind and sand in the Yellow Sand District, although the crater was huge, but as long as the sun rises tomorrow, everything will return to normal - from this point of view, the Yellow Sand District, like the Thousand Swamp District, is an excellent location for killing people and throwing corpses.

Whether it's sand or swamps, they all show the ruthless side of nature.

Of course, it is the people themselves who are more dangerous.

Just about an hour after Ye Qi rode Groning away, about thirty figures appeared on the sand dunes in the distance, and the speed of these figures was extremely fast, each of them was huge, like a mountain and like a lake and sea, so that ordinary people could not look directly, they could only tremble and bow their heads.

Transcendental!

Each of these thirty people is a legendary powerhouse in the transcendent realm!

And walking in front of these thirty people was Cheddell, who had lost one of his arms—gauze and potions, so that Chedel's wound not only stopped bleeding, but also healed quickly, but the lost broken arm could never be recovered; Although St. Brother De seems to have the magic skill that can connect the broken arm, but for the legendary powerhouse of the transcendent realm, even if it is connected, it is just an ornament, and it is difficult to play its own role at all.

Therefore, Cheddell has enough hatred for Ye Qi who cut off one of his arms, and this hatred is even more manifested in the rapid speed at this moment - Chedel can't wait to take the person behind him to appear in front of Ye Qi immediately, and then kill the other party directly!

However, no matter how fast they were, when they arrived, Ye Qi had already left.

Instead of congregating together, the men split into three groups and began to quickly check, and then, they quickly found the place where Kirli had blown himself up.

Feeling the faint breath of holy light, a legendary powerhouse dressed as an ascetic in the crowd recited the "God Says" in a low voice: "Lamb of my lord, you have gone through ups and downs, found your sins, and washed them away...... You have now returned to the kingdom of the Lord, where there is no sickness, no hunger, no pain, and your smile will guide us forward......"

This prayer lasted for two minutes before it slowly stopped.

"Smoy, my friend, I'll get you the justice you deserve!"

The legendary powerhouse of the ascetic, standing on the sand dunes after the explosion, said slowly; Then, he turned straight to Cheddell and asked, "Are you sure that the man's name is Yedki?" ”

"Your Majesty Koska, I'm sure so!"

Chedel, who had always shown cruelty, replied respectfully in the face of the old man's questioning, but the old man in the white robe of the ascetic linen shook his head and said: "I am no longer the Pope, now I am just a sinner Koska!" ”

"Even so, your prestige will still reign on the earth, making others tremble!"

Cheddell said something so sensual that the rest of the room frowned, but in the end they said nothing—because, as they knew, Chiddell was telling the truth.

In fact, when they saw each other, they were all secretly surprised.

After all, if it were rumors, the other party would have died at the end of the Sacred Age.
