Sweating profusely, Sophia could barely stand with the support of a spear. To maintain the strong combat power of the Valkyrie's soul, it is necessary to continuously consume a lot of mana, and when the mana is exhausted, it can also be replaced by the body lì, but now the body lì seems to have run out of oil, and the armor that is gradually translucent indicates that the Valkyrie's soul can not last long.

"It's surprising that relying on the soul of a mere Valkyrie can consume 6 of my stand-ins, but you've reached your limit. "The terrifying figure of Meritgar was once again revealed among the dust that had not yet scattered after the battle.

The continuous fighting, instead of making him appear a little weak, seemed to be more and more energetic, and it seemed that the claim that the consumed stand-in could be transformed into his strength was not bragging.

Sophia was always not to be outdone: "Who has reached the limit? I, I can still ......"

"Don't bluff!" Melitgar raised her hand, and the gray force field covered Sophia from all directions like a fishing net.

"Empress Holy Shield" - at this time, Sophia no longer had extra body to dodge such a dense attack, she chose to carry this blow hard, and then find an opportunity to launch a counterattack.

However, even carrying Sophia hard couldn't do it, because her body had been greatly reduced, and even the simple action of raising the shield had become very slow, and the "Empress Shield" had not yet had time to be activated, and the gray force field had already covered her body surface, invading into the armor and battle robe.

"Wow--"

In the midst of a miserable scream, the swollen gray force field shattered the Valkyrie's armor and battle robe, and the Valkyrie's soul, which was already in an unstable state, completely collapsed, and the armor, weapons, shields, and battle robes all turned into an elemental state and disappeared into the air. At the same time, the reaction force of the gray force field squeezed Sophia's internal organs, causing her body to be extremely stressed, and she instantly bleed a lot of internally.

After spitting out a stream of blood, Sophia fell to the ground. She couldn't even move a finger, and she had completely lost the ability to resist.

"You understand now. No matter how hard you try, it's all in vain......" At this point, Meritgar suddenly stopped, as if he heard some voice that only he heard, he closed his eyes tightly, and opened his eyes two seconds later, his expression looked quite pleasant, "Very good, it seems that the 'Star Key' is now in hand." And I'm tired of this cat-and-mouse game, so let me die!"

Meritgar's body vanished with a thud and appeared beside Sophia, who reached out his right hand and grabbed the defenseless Sophia's neck and lifted her up.

Owen, who had already fallen to the ground, saw this qiē, and his pupils suddenly dilated. The evil hexagram foreshadowed by the "Destiny Card" has not been reversed at all, and Sophia's crisis has actually just begun. "Let go of her!" Owen shouted loudly, the strong mood made the telekinesis strengthened beyond the limit, and the strength of the brain waves spread out with dozens or hundreds of times the increase, although Merit Gaal believed that he had resisted Owen's mental attack, but under such a powerful mental interference, he was still affected, and the nerves in his whole body were temporarily paralyzed, and the hand that held Sophia's throat was released, and before the force was applied to crush the throat, Sophia fell to the ground in response, temporarily getting rid of his clutches.

"Get out of the way of her!" St. Angel swung her twin swords at Meritgar, forcing her to defend herself before she could strike at Sophia again. However, her attacks were never able to penetrate the barrier of the gray force field, and Meritgar smiled contemptuously, raising his left hand and backhanding St. Angel's short sword to the right forearm of his neck, twisting it with a twist.

Only a "snap" was heard, and Saint-Angel's hand was broken. Melitgar shook off St. Angel's as she snatched her short sword and stabbed her palm. Saint-Kien couldn't avoid it, and the sharp short sword pierced into the palm of his right hand, piercing the entire palm. St. Angel endured the pain, and took advantage of the moment when Meritgar lifted the gray force field because of the attack on her, and slashed the short sword held in her left hand towards Meritgar's neck.

The blade that sliced through the air left a long trail of blood on Meritgar's gills. "Eat hard!" "Meritgar was annoyed, and gently raised her dagger upward, the blade slashed open half of St. Angel's palm, slashed it between her index finger and middle finger, and then raised her foot and kicked St. Angel in the lower abdomen, kicking her back several meters.

The moment he defeated St. Angel, he suddenly suffered a series of violent impacts from his back. These impacts did not come from the physical object, but from the invisible sword qi, there were a total of four sword qi, stacked one after the other like a tidal wave, and the energy of each sword qi was twice that of the previous one.

"Breaking the Waves Quadruple Slash" - The Vampire Prince has somehow lifted his vampire state and wielded the broken sword with human power, using his proud battle spirit skills as a human. But he didn't have time to burn the war spirit, so he could only use magic and burn his own blood to simulate the effect of the war spirit, so that the power was only half of the original, but even so, it was enough to beat a knight in heavy armor to pieces.

However, Meritgar, who had eaten the "Breaking Wave Quadruple Slash", only stumbled forward a few steps, and the clothes behind him were torn into rags, showing 4 sword marks that were deep and bone-piercing, and the gray force field was destroyed by the "Breaking Wave Quadruple Slash", but it also canceled out most of the power.

However, it would be a mistake to think that this would be a relief. The moment Meritgar stabilized her forward body, she threw the short sword in her hand at Sophia almost without thinking. The sword flew towards Sophia at high speed, and neither St. Angie, Owen, nor the Vampire Prince could prevent the short sword from piercing Sophia's heart at this time......

"Rub--"

Blood splattered, and the sword-pierced body slowly fell to the ground.

In front of him, not only Sophia, but even Owen, the Prince of Vampire, and St. Angel were stunned, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, everyone present would never have believed that this man would actually use his body to block this fatal sword for Sophia.

"Religion, His Majesty the Pope......" Sophia, who had already collapsed so much that she didn't even have the strength to speak, struggled to squeeze out these words.

Although Pope Frio I was trapped in the "Holy Light Plantation", he was a cardinal himself, and with a deep understanding of the magic of light, he used his magic to neutralize the magic of the "Holy Light Plantation", although it took a lot of time to get himself out of the predicament. However, the Pope, who escaped from the predicament, did not take advantage of the chaos to escape, but chose to sacrifice himself to block the sword of Sophia, whom he was originally going to kill, which in itself is incredible.

Even Merit Gar herself could not have imagined that such a thing would happen. In his memory, the man he had chosen to support the papacy would not have done such a thing. This unexpected situation made him stand on the spot, so much so that Owen grabbed the gap and rushed over and pressed it against the door of Meritgar's head, and with the increase of telekinesis, Meritgar's head was shattered into a watermelon scoop.

Dump the body that lost its head on the ground. Owen came to Sophia and crouched down, helped her up against him, and looked at the Pope who was lying on the ground drowning. The wounds inflicted by Meritgar could not be healed by light magic, and neither St. Angel nor Sophia could save the Pope's life.

"Snort, snort, snort......"

The Pope, who was dying, breathing more and more hard, slowly stretched out his trembling hand to Sophia, Sophia didn't think about it, and also stretched out her weak hand, and finally with the help of Owen, the two hands touched together. The Pope's lips opened and closed, as if to say something, but he couldn't make a sound, and then the Pope closed his eyes, tilted his head, and his old hand slipped from Sophia's palm.

On May 12, 1687, Pope Frio I died at the age of 88, having reigned for 46 years.

On the day of the funeral of Frio I, all the clergy above the deacon of the central Church, as well as all the regional bishops of the local Church, received a message from the late Pope Frio I almost at the same time:

"Glorious saints, listen to me. Our sacred faith in light has reached a point of life and death, and I have fought against the gods of the light in accordance with the oracle of the light, but in the end we have failed, and the Holy See has paid a heavy price and sacrifice, but it has made it clear to me who the real enemy is. An organization called the Eternal Truth Society, whose belief in the rebellious angel Lucifer has penetrated our holy Church with us, bringing werewolves, betrayals, calamities, and vain attempts to seize control of the Church. I have reigned for many years, but I have not noticed it at all, and I have committed a mistake for it, so I must return to God in the light and accept any punishment from God. I don't know who else the 'Eternal Truth Society' is, they are hiding around you, they may be your friends, subordinates, superiors, or even yourselves who have received this parable, but I have always believed that if I keep my faith pure, I will be able to drive these black sheep out of us. In order to maintain light and justice, and to stop the suspicion of mankind among themselves, we must destroy the Eternal Truth Society at any cost. Long live my gods!"
