Chapter 13: Purpose

The lowest level of the Cornerstone Gate, deep in the ocean. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The order is complete, the target has been confirmed with your own eyes."

Astarut's inorganic voice rang out as the final gate was broken.

But unlike her before, Astrut's entire body was now encased in the body of a headless, translucent beast - all she had used to fight before was the beast's arm!

"Ahh

Rudolph, who carried the giant axe behind him, stared at his right eye, which was not covered by the blindfold, with a reverent and moved expression, and two lines of clear tears flowed unhindered.

Tears in their purest form, joy from the heart.

He walked step by step to the center of the last platform, knelt there, and then looked up at the crystallized object suspended above the high platform, and froze for a moment, then laughed.

Laughed maniacally.

"The immortal body taken from the church of Lotharingia has been waiting for it to return to the hands of our disciples for a long time! Now no one can stand in our way!! Pull up that disgusting wedge and sanction this decadent island!!! ”

"But the preconditions are incorrect, and the order is required to be re-selected."

Astarout's voice in the humanoid beast's body said without any waves.

"What!?"

Rudolph looked puzzled.

Then the next voice answered him.

"I'm sorry uncle!"

It was a voice he was familiar with—the voice of the Fourth True Ancestor who had his head cut off not long ago.

Looking up, standing on the railing not far away was the Lion King Machine-Sword Witch Hiiragi Yukina with a spear, and Xiao Gucheng, who he thought was going to die!

After all, it was the True Ancestor—the power of immortality far exceeded that of any vampire.

Well, although it's just the true ancestor as defined by this world. To know the true ancestor who is recognized by the will of the world like Elquit....... Well, even the concept of death doesn't exist in her at all.

And just as Rudolph pulled out the giant axe behind him and made a vigilant gesture to the two of them.

"I'm going to be there - if it weren't for the fact that it took too long to go the wrong way before, we could have stopped this guy halfway!"

Another clear male voice echoed as well.

"Sure enough, that girl is stupid!"

And Elquit's energetic voice.

"Su Mo and Elquet?!"

Xiao Gucheng and Ji Hiiragi Yukina looked surprised: "It turns out that the people from the guard team said before that you were the ones who helped a lot?!" ”

"That's right, Gu Dao is hot-hearted, handsome and dashing, and the jade-faced little Langjun Su Mo is talking about me."

Su didn't blush at all when he said it.

“......”

“......”

There was some silence.

Rudolph may have been a little irritated – and the saddest thing is that it's not over yet.

"Whew, whew....... Am I the last to arrive? ”

The flashing Asuna looked at Su Mo and the others in some surprise: "Didn't you set off after me?" ”

“.......”

The corners of Su Mo's mouth twitched - dare to love your old man who was left behind by us from the beginning!?

"Hmph-ha, that's pretty good! In order to stop me, so many people came, including the famous Miss Deputy Head of the Blood Alliance Knights. ”

Rudolph laughed gloomily.

"Boy, can I ask what that crystallized arm is?"

Su Mo was a little interested in the arm suspended in the crystals in the center of the field.

"The remains of saints who serve the gods of the Western European Church are called holy relics, right?"

After hearing the word holy relic, Su Mo's thoughts instantly diverged—'I don't know if I can use this thing to summon the heroic spirit of that saint?' Anyway, what happened to that girl in Arthas, she must have been very angry that she had suddenly entered the evil of this world.......

"That's what you're for, right, Rudolph!"

After speaking, Xiao Gucheng focused his sharp gaze on Rudolph.

Rudolph, on the other hand, calmed down, closed his eyes and said slowly: "This island, which you call the String God Island, is trying to bring prosperity to the city based on spiritual power. It can be said that the designer of the island of strings, Chira, did a good job, and he compared the four islands of the string god that were divided into four parts as the four gods, trying to control the dragon vein with their organic combination - but there was a problem that had to be solved. ”

"Oh, it's the strength of the cornerstone, right?"

Su Mo interjected, he had been analyzing, listening and thinking.

"Exactly! Forty years before the design, it was impossible to create enough building materials to make the Evergreen Dragon of the Four Gods work, so he got involved in the forbidden evil method! ”

"What do you mean ......."

"That's right, the human pillar was chosen to support the demon-infested city - this is the body of the precious saint who was taken from our church in the first place!! Unforgivable, absolutely unforgivable!! ”

Rudolph became more and more angry: "So! We are going to use our strength to reclaim our holy relics today!! So step aside, Fourth True Ancestor! And the deputy head of the Blood Alliance Knights and those two unknown spectators! This is my holy war against this whole city!! ”

And Xiao Gucheng also roared: "Then it doesn't matter if the 560,000 people living on this island are dead, right?!!!! ”

"Just think about the price this is the city has to pay for its sins, that level of sacrifice is not worth mentioning at all!!"

Yukina still wanted to reason with him: "With the current level of technology, it is not a problem to make a foundation stone with sufficient strength, as long as you go to appeal, it is still possible to get back the holy relic, isn't it?" ”

"If—your dearest relatives are being ravaged and suffering, can you spit out such words from your mouth?!!!

Rudolph looked humiliated and shouted angrily: "Astarout!!! ”

"Take orders."

The huge humanoid beast without a head stepped out.

"Hey, is that still the case?"

Xiao Gucheng, whose fangs were full of fangs, took a sip, and then jumped down on the railing.

Asuna also drew her sword: "Even if my mission is not to prevent the sinking of the String God Island, I don't agree with you, although faith is a respectable thing, but that is not a reason for you to trample on the lives of others, it is really sad to be shackled like this by a man who has been dead for a thousand years." ”

The girl jumped to her feet in a dashing manner, then landed lightly, and pointed her sword at Rudolph: "I will stop you." ”

"Hmph, who else? You? ”

Rudolph snorted coldly and looked at Su Mo, who was still standing in place.

"Well......."

Su Mo shrugged: "If you want." ”

When he said the first word, he was still standing in place, and when the voice of the second word sounded, he was already standing next to Asuna and Xiao Gucheng: "I'll accompany you once." ”
