The sound of the wind...... Slight shaking...... There is also the rotten smell of stale wood.

Chilling, Ivan woke up, he found himself strapped to a high-backed chair, his vision blurred, and a pale white light source seemed to shine above, swinging back and forth rhythmically. The light was not strong, but the long darkness still made him unable to see the surrounding scenery clearly.

"I'm glad to see you still alive, my majesty. Ozmandis's kind, almost hypocritical voice came from the air.

“......”

He blinked effortlessly, trying to moisten his dry eyeballs, and his blurred vision gradually returned.

In front of him stood two clergy in white robes, as well as two Holy Cult soldiers in covered black armor. Behind them, through a curtain of black curtains, a delicately shaped leather sofa could be faintly seen, and the armrests wrapped in gold leaf shone brightly—the thin and straight figure of the high priest sat in the center of the sofa.

"I feel a little sorry to see that you are still alive. ”

With undisguised mockery in his tone, Evan looked at the other party defiantly, while desperately trying to calm himself down and begin to recall the previous bits and pieces.

Before he fell unconscious, the last scene in his memory, the dust flying disorderly in the air, crossed Xia Li's tear-stained face without any obstacles.

Soon, Evan remembered what had happened to him and immediately looked to his chest, but he didn't find the trauma it should have.

"After receiving my simple treatment, the wound that pierced the chest healed in just a few hours, and your physique is becoming more and more in line with my expectations. The High Priest seemed intent on awakening his doubts, as if he were intent on telling him that your time was near.

"Charlie has long said that she is the lamp bearer...... And I didn't know anything about the rank of priest, and thought it was just some kind of honorary title. Ivan didn't pay attention to his words, but instead tilted his head and looked at the flickering light source on the ceiling:

"But I didn't expect that she was a real high-ranking priest. ”

"How does it feel to be betrayed by her?" said Ozmandis chuckled behind the curtain.

"Predictably. ”

He sighed a little depressedly, and after a pause, he pulled the corners of his mouth slightly: "Compared to me, you are still worried about your current self, Your Excellency." ”

"Me?" the voice behind the curtain rose a few degrees.

"If I'm not mistaken, where you're right now, it's the inside of some kind of vehicle, isn't it?"

Ivan stared at the faltering light source, his pupils refracting the light like a beam of sky light piercing through the ice:

"Let me guess what made you take me out of your lair......? A few heavyweight priests have escaped!?"

That's right, but that doesn't change your situation. ”

Ozmandis interrupted him, as if he didn't want to stay on the topic, and his voice became cold as cold as he spoke:

"Your Majesty, your stubbornness and recklessness have indeed caused me great trouble. I had to abandon the principle of courtesy, and while you were unconscious, I considered abolishing your Sun Sutra - but I couldn't do that, it would affect the progress of my research. ”

As he said this, a sinister smile broke out on his old face, and he whispered in a distorted and cold voice:

"So, I'm going to give back to you in another way...... There are many tricks to torturing a person, and I happen to know how to destroy the most tenacious will. ”

"Do whatever you want, try to do it, there are not many opportunities like this!"

Evan stared at him-for-tat, puffing out his chest hard, his gaze as sharp as if he could pierce the curtain:

"Ozmandis, you're finished! You've betrayed the Empire, you've betrayed the Order, you've betrayed all those who expect from you! No one wants to help you, no one wants to take you in, no one wants to trust you anymore! You're completely isolated, abandoned! It won't be long before my cousin finds you and executes you in the most brutal way!"

If you lose or lose, you will die horizontally and vertically anyway, so it is better to stand up straight and die.

"Shut up!"

After a moment of silence, the furious telekinesis instantly tore through the curtain, and black shards flew like butterflies.

Rumble——!

The spiritual storm set off by the huge telekinesis seemed to set off a monstrous wave in the space, and it suddenly shook the void like water waves, and the air was flooded with layers of ripples. Then, the ripples spread instantly, and the fragile items in the entire space were all shattered in this instant, like snow in the wind.

The Holy Sect Army and the two priests were caught off guard, and they were all so shocked that their ears were buzzing, and the Venus in front of them was scurrying, and they collapsed one after another vomiting.

Bearing the brunt of the blow, Evan felt as if he had fallen alone into the boundless storm of the sea, and felt the force of the huge wind and waves crashing against him. For a moment, he almost felt that he had been pressed into a flat surface, all his internal organs erupted from the seven orifices, and his thoughts seemed to be the remnants of his near-death consciousness, which could disappear at any moment.

"Do you think your Eucharistic blessing can win the Sun Sutra? Don't fool yourself, even I can ignore your little trick, not to mention that she has already condensed the light that does not fall!"

In the turbulent waves formed by the telekinesis, Evan held his spirit and told him word by word:

"She will rain on fire, and you—nowhere to run!"

"Enough!"

The High Priest's face became more and more ugly, as if on the verge of collapse, and he let out a loud cry that was sharp and high-pitched, like the penetrating wail of some large animal when it was dying.

Boom ——!

But just like that, when it fell on Evan's ears, it seemed like a thunderbolt sounded out of thin air. This strange cry seemed to be able to penetrate the eardrum directly, shaking him with severe pain in his skull, like several red-hot soldering irons piercing directly into his brain, and the impact on his spirit was unimaginably huge.

“......”

Evan only felt that the soul in his mind was violently shaken, his will seemed to be torn into countless parts, and the fragments of his thoughts were like waves on top of each other, and the back pushed the front, infinitely expanding, as if he was about to squeeze through his skull and splash out.

In this terrible pain, he felt that the blood flow all over his body was hot like magma, and there seemed to be a large number of sharp debris stirring in the bone marrow, and countless electric currents were transmitted back and forth on the nerves, and every cell was like a bomb about to explode!

Can't admit defeat! Can't admit defeat! Can't admit defeat!

His mind was already confused and blurred, but he subconsciously gritted his teeth and moved out all the spiritual pillars that could arm him, holding up what little dignity he had left, and not bowing his head to the hateful old monster in front of him.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to struggle at all, just kneel down and apologize to me, and everything will pass. Ozmandis suddenly opened his mouth to speak, his voice soothing and soft, and the terrifying telekinetic storm also subsided.

At this moment, his voice seemed ethereal and holy, as if it contained a calming power. As the high priest's voice fell, every inch of the room seemed to emit a faint soft light, and in Ivan's blurred eyes, his figure seemed to exude bright warmth, kindness, brilliance, and sacredness.

"Okay......"

Ivan lowered his head in a low voice, letting the broken hair cover his face, and paused intentionally, completely attracting Ozmandis's mind, and suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly:

", you!"

“......”

The high priest's expression at this time seemed to be really, his temples were bruised, and the wrinkles and folds on his face were constantly shaking, making people worry that they would fall off at any time.

"Hahaha!"

Ivan looked at the expression on his face, spat out a mouthful of bloody spit, and burst out laughing.
