In the centuries-old Luan Cathedral, the silence of the sanctuary was broken by the sound of roars and metal clashing, and the pungent smell of magical flames scorching the air filled every corridor and room, and the gathered volunteer mercenaries and civilians set off a frenzy on the upper floors of the entire church, and the clergy and papal knights who were hiding were constantly found from the corners of hiding and dragged to the square outside, and this terrible movement even penetrated the thick ground and spread into the underground palace facilities under the church.

Wright led a dozen white knights to walk in the deep underground palace of Luan Cathedral, the heavy and rapid sound of iron boots stepping on the ground continued to echo in the ancient stone corridor, and the sound of battle on the ground would faintly float from time to time, as if in another world.

Amber's figure was constantly shuttling in the shadows near this team of white knights, and she caught up with Wright's pace, and couldn't help but be a little curious: "You've been to this place?" How do you see that you are so familiar with ......"

"The structure of the underground of the large churches is much the same, and directly below the main hall extends a rectangular underground palace in the direction of the Holy Spirit Tower, with one or two crossroads in the middle, which is fixed," Wright said in a deep voice as he walked, "Be careful, there may be enemies hiding underneath this......"

"That's what you say...... But I didn't see anyone along the way," Amber looked around, and all she could see was the corridors and stone paths illuminated by the magic crystal lamp, "but it feels like ...... It's a bit weird ...... indeed."

Wright didn't respond, but silently communicated the sense of the holy light in his heart, and with a faint layer of light appeared in his eyes, the facility located in the underground of the church took on a different form in his vision:

He saw countless translucent spirits floating in the deep and long corridor, mottled ancient walls flickering with runes that were difficult for mortals to understand and read, the stone slabs on the ground were soaked with a faint light, and a thin layer of mist was rising from between the cracks in the stone floor, gradually filling the entire corridor.

The other White Knights also activated their tactical eyepieces, alert for all anomalous energy reactions.

"The spirits in the sanctuary are all alarmed......" Wright's pace gradually slowed down, and his tone was unusually serious, "The energy field here is very active. ”

Amber pondered for a moment, and found that she didn't understand at all: "What do you mean?" ”

"The church gathers the power of the human heart, and the older and larger the church, the more so it is, and for hundreds of years there have been countless devout believers and clergy who have been active in and around the church, who have prayed in their lives and who have been laid to rest here after their deaths, and whose souls have formed a strong reverberation in the crypt of the church—this echo is not a dead spirit, but an empty echo of the unconscious, which is harmless and, to a certain extent, calms the spirit, So there is a slight sense of relaxation when people walk into the old cathedral—the priests call it the miracle of the god of light, but in reality it's just a natural phenomenon that can be explained by theory," Wright frowned as he explained the knowledge to Amber, "and there are a lot of reverberations here...... But these were supposed to be dormant spirits in the ground...... All of them seemed restless. ”

Amber suddenly got goosebumps, and Emily's figure emerged from the air beside Wright, and the little girl looked at the empty hallway in the eyes of ordinary people with wide eyes, and happily waved her hand to greet the invisible spirits.

Wright immediately asked the little girl to go back: "Emily, hide well, there may be danger here." ”

Amber swallowed, pondering the possibility of turning around and running away now as she asked, "What could be this place in front of you?" ”

"It should be a prayer room, the underground prayer room is reserved for the principals of the church," Wright looked at the end of the hallway, "where the Holy Light ...... Exceptionally active. ”

The team heightened their vigilance and continued their way deeper into the underground facility, and Amber looked around and saw that there was no suitable opportunity for her to slip away, so she shook her head and stubbornly followed.

The cacophony from above faded away, and the vague sounds seemed to be wrapped in a thick curtain and turned into a faint murmur, and in the murmur, the corridor gradually came to an end.

An oak door stood quietly in front of it, the magic crystal lamps on both sides of the wooden door emitted a soft and warm light, and in the small open space in front of the door, a figure in a black robe knelt quietly.

The white knights instantly clenched the hammer in their hands, and Amber raised the quenched dagger for the first time, but the kneeling figure did not react in the slightest - unless it was a deaf man, he could not have heard the heavy footsteps coming from behind him.

Wright gestured for everyone to stand on guard, and he himself cautiously approached the figure with a hammer in his hand.

The other party has been dead for a long time.

Wright gestured to safety, and when the others approached, he flicked the black-robed body with the handle of his hammer, and the latter fell unresponsive without a sound.

It was a monk of discipline, with a tattoo on his scalp and a holy emblem on his chest, and his countenance made everyone feel extremely strange—

There was no pain on his face, no expression of dying bitterness, on the contrary, a smile on his lips, and a peaceful and calm look on his face, as if he had been immersed in the boundless joy of peace in the moments before he died, and this peace and joy continued until after his death.

Seeing the strange death of this precept monk, and thinking of his previous kneeling posture, Amber suddenly couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "Mom...... This...... How did this guy die? ”

"I was attacked by a psychic attack spell unsuspectingly."

Wright whispered, then looked up at the tightly closed oak door.

"The underground structure of this facility is blessed with magical powers...... You should be able to handle it......" The new Patriarch analyzed in a low voice as if talking to himself, and then waved his hand to the subordinates behind him, "Prepare for the cleaning process." ”

The white knights immediately moved quickly, some of them spread their shields and formed a line of defense in front of the gate to deal with the impact, while others began to untie their grenades from their waists and backs, and Amber was stunned: "What? What is the cleaning process? ”

No one answered her, and in the middle of her questioning, several more White Knights opened the weapons boxes carried by the squad, took out several sets of individual howitzers with acceleration rails and sights, and triangular brackets, and began to assemble them quickly in front of the gate—judging by their skill, it was clear that these warriors had been training in the army for a long time before becoming White Knights.

Amber's ears suddenly pricked up: "Wait a minute, this thing is not the Steel Ranger......"

"Borrowed from Thorderling," Wright said in a deep voice as he instructed the two team members to place a significantly larger howitzer in front of the doorway, "don't worry, you didn't bring anything too powerful." ”

As they spoke, the White Knights had already set up their howitzers, and heavy explosive grenades were pushed into the acceleration orbit, and the warriors of the Holy Light prayed in a low voice while pushing the shells into place: "Holy Light Mercy ......" "Holy Light bless the accelerated orbit." "May the Light bless this cannonball and its fuse......"

Amber immediately felt that the scene in front of her was full of problems: "Hey, wait! You guys don't follow the process! Under normal circumstances, when encountering this kind of secret room underground, you should carefully disarm the mechanism and then follow the ...... in a dignified manner."

Halfway through the noisy half-elf, Wright had already raised the mechanically powered warhammer in his hand, and then the heavy weapon of destruction slammed into the door of the prayer room with a whistling wind: "Holy Striking!!" ”

There was a loud bang, and the wooden door was torn apart, and for a brief moment, Amber seemed to see something behind the door suddenly light up and wanted to rush out, but in the next second, with the continuous explosion, a large number of heavy grenades, heavy grenades, crystallized bombs, and continuous blasts of holy light smashed into the prayer room.

"Boom Boom ......"

The explosion sounded deafeningly, and the entire underground structure of the church shook violently, if it was a normal building, it would only collapse in the face of this terrible explosion, but as the headquarters of the southern diocese of the Holy Light Church, the underground structure of Luan Cathedral was stronger than imagined - in the case of full energy, it was even stronger than the outer city wall. In this dungeon blessed with countless magic, the explosion rumbled like a bell ringing continuously, and in the one-and-a-half-long bombardment, the white knights fired nearly a hundred grenades, bombs, and grenades, as well as a greater number of blasts of holy light—when the explosion finally stopped, Amber felt her entire head rumble, even though she had covered her ears for the first time, but it was obvious...... The excellent hearing that the elven blood gave her was really a terrible weakness at this time.

Wright, on the other hand, rushed into the prayer room with a warhammer as soon as the explosion stopped, and the other White Knights followed suit.

"Be vigilant!!"

In the puff of smoke, Wright shouted a loud warning to everyone to be on guard, and his gaze swept quickly over the large prayer room.

The prayer room was in shambles, the light-blessed floor, walls, and roof had been badly damaged by the terrible bombardment just now, and there were astonishing cracks and crumbling stone slabs and bricks everywhere, and between the shattered walls and the ground, a faint golden light could be seen slowly wriggling, and the remnants of the Protector spell were trying to maintain the support structure and repair the damage to the building.

As for the furnishings in the room, except for the walls and floors...... It was all wiped out in the previous explosion.

"Ahem...... Ahem......" Amber coughed as she followed into the smoky room, "You can't do that, you're more or less ...... Ahem...... How much is it a clergyman......"

Wright raised a hand, interrupting Amber's loud bb, and his gaze fell on the middle of a messy room, where a wriggling mass of flesh, crystals, and flowing light was converging at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Amber was taken aback: "What's that?!" ”

Wright's eyes widened, and between the wriggling flesh and the strange crystal-like substance, he saw a piece of torn cloth, apparently part of some ornate vestment: "...... It's the bishop!! ”
