Chapter 13: The Flame of the Church (3)
"Moriarty!"
In the tower's lookout, Moriarty had just finished a popular conversation with three accomplices when an angry roar shouting his name erupted from the staircase leading to it. Immediately, a figure burst up in a rage.
Who's that?
For this question, Moriarty can guess ten out of ten even if he doesn't go back to confirm - the archpriest of the Angel Sect, Solasius. There is no second possibility.
"That's not what you promised me!" the man asked, as soon as he arrived, staring at the back of the man standing on the edge of the platform.
"Everything has to be processed. My Excellency, the Grand Priest. Moriarty said dismissively. "Didn't I make it clear to you that this will cost you something?"
"It's called some!" Solasiau gestured to his side. He gestured to the chaos under the tower. "Do you know how much trouble I've been getting into with your failed experiment!"
"Failure?" Moriarty couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. "Who told you that? It didn't fail, it should be called a success. As for the trouble...... The only trouble for you is that your pet runs away. ”
"Hula!"
At this moment, a strange sound of air shaking from the bottom to the top soared into the sky like a volcanic eruption.
It seems that Ilenu has finally realized the existence of the wings behind her. She barely flapped them up with unskillful skills, and the lift was lifted from the ground to the air. After getting used to it a bit, it stumbled away in a certain direction.
This scene made the Great Priest Soraxiu stunned, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses and picked up the topic just now and exclaimed, "How do you know!"
"Otherwise, where do you think she's going?" Moriarty raised his hand to signal the direction in which Ilenu had fled.
"What......" Soracio was immediately so frightened that his face changed drastically, and he couldn't even speak.
"No big deal. Moriarty methodically relieved, "What you want comes down to that pair of wings, not that girl." I've got the data I want and she's useless. ”
Run, run, It wasn't until she was out of breath that An Jie'er had to stop and hold on to the wall to stabilize her figure.
"Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe..."
She gasped for air as she surveyed her surroundings.
What catches your eye is an alley, narrow, dark and silent, with an eerie atmosphere. The buildings that squeezed out of the alleys were extremely small, the structure was twisted and looked so crooked, the walls were in and out and out and out of the place, and the roofs were colorful and uneven, like patched rags. All in all, the surrounding houses are small and dilapidated.
That being said, it's much more durable than on the ground. The road surface is full of potholes, and it seems that it is not as good as the dirt roads in the countryside. The stagnant water is stored in the pits, and I don't know when it will dry up, and on top of that, it emits a pungent smell that dwarfs even uncleaned toilets. On top of that, the corners are all covered in thick gray-black goo-like objects, and occasionally rats the size of the paws of their feet and cockroaches the size of their thumbs are passing by.
Can there be any other adjective for such a picture besides "dirty"? Angela has never been a young lady from a spotless space, but even so, when she faced all this in front of her, she couldn't help but rub her bare feet on such a ground, and showed a disgusted expression.
However......
"Heheheha......ha
Angel soon burst out laughing, heartily laughing. No matter how filthy this place is, can there be a place for her to escape, no matter how unsightly, can there be a place for her to escape? Compared to that place, this is heaven, because there is the freedom she longs for day and night.
"Finally! It's finally out!" Angel cried out in excitement like crazy, "I'm free!
However, happiness begets sorrow......
"Bang!"
At this moment, a loud bang exploded behind him, which dispersed Angel's intoxication, and an ominous premonition rose from the bottom of her heart.
She turned to look with trepidation, her pupils immediately constricting from what she saw.
What shone in her eyes was a monster that resembled a Harpy - none other than Elegan.
"You. At this moment, Irenu, who cast a vicious look at Angel, opened her mouth and let out a reluctant roar. "It's all you! If it weren't for your ridiculous prophecy, how would I have ended up where I am now! It's all you! It's all thanks to you!"
"No kidding!" "What happened to Irene Nu is very pitiful for her, but to be honest, isn't it her own fault in the final analysis! "I'm just saying what you want to know! And isn't that what you forced me to say!
"Shut up!" Elennu yelled angrily as she swung her right hand and slammed her massive claw into the wall next to her. Immediately, the wall was torn apart with a "bang". The rubble flies out and then turns into splinters.
The astonishing scene immediately made Angel shut her mouth in terror.
Immediately after, Elennu spoke again viciously: "Kill you!
The moment the last word of the vulgar words popped out, Elennu pounced on Angel as she had declared. However, she still couldn't fully control her mutated body. As a result, her large claws that burst out looked as if they were about to pierce Angel's head, but they went off course at the critical moment.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, Angel was so frightened that she fell to the ground, but she was still alive. Irenu's claws sank deep into the ground on the side. The latter rightfully wanted to attack again, but only to find that his claws were firmly stuck in the ground.
"Damn!
Just as Ilenu struggled to pull her claws out, the survival instinct made Angel notice the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. So, the girl hurriedly turned over, and as she scrambled to get up from the ground, she couldn't wait to run away from Irennu's side.
"Stop!" Irenu immediately raised her other paw to grab Angel, but the latter deftly dodged. "Come back, you come back for me!"
How is that possible?
No matter how Elennu roared, Angel still ran without looking back. In a panic, she didn't know how many streets she had run through, how many corners she had turned, but in short, she ran desperately. Eventually, all of a sudden, after turning another corner, she ran headlong into a figure emerging from the next corner.
It was none other than Aaron, who had come to see the excitement.
"Smack!"
Angel was slamming into Aaron's chest, and she was too weak to knock Aron down. But even so, the boy was still taken aback by the unexpected situation he encountered.
What's going on?
In his astonishment, Aaron hurriedly looked down to see what had hit him. At the same time, Angel also looked up at Aaron. In this way, the two men stared at each other with their eyes facing each other.
And it seems to be pretty cute!
Even though Yalian, who has read countless women because of his profession, was still amazed by An Jie'er. But the latter is considered something else.
"Help me!" An Jie'er, who was extremely frightened, didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly asked for help such as "who is this young man in front of him" and "what kind of person is he".
At the same time, the sound of "knocking" footsteps also approached from a distance.
Is anyone chasing her?
Regardless of the fact that one of his regular occupations was to hunt down prostitutes who wanted to escape, he was still very gentle with girls, and this was due to his affection for his sister. So, he decided to protect the girl in front of him first, at least before figuring things out.
In this way, Yalian subconsciously folded his arms and hugged An Jie'er's somewhat trembling body, and then counted the companions he might meet in his mind. Yes, he now thought that the maiden in her arms might have escaped from somewhere, after all, she was dressed in this light dress.
However, the facts soon turned Yalian's imagination upside down.
"Click!"
The moment the big paw of Irennu's right hand pulled out of the corner of the alley, the hairs on Aren's body stood upside down.
Oh my God! What kind of monster is this!
While watching Ilenu reveal his true body, Aaron couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
Monsters! Yes! These are monsters! These are the monsters that can only be known from rumors and books and picture books that should only exist in the deep mountains and old forests! If this is the case, how can they appear here! And what does this girl in front of her have to do with this monster!
A series of questions popped up in Aaron's mind unconsciously, but now was clearly not the time to deal with them. When it was too late, it was too fast, and Irenu's sharp claws were killed in an instant.
Not good!
Even though Aren Dang exclaimed in his heart, fortunately he was not frightened to the point of being stunned on the spot. Years of experience on the dark side of society have already given him an instinct to deal with crises, and his body has acted almost subconsciously.
In this way, he picked up An Jie'er and threw herself to the side, but he still missed a little bit - Ilenu did not have full control over her body. The waving claws seemed to follow a predetermined trajectory, but at the critical moment, Irennu's stumbling suddenly changed its location. It grazed past Aaron's back just right.
"Ahh
In the heart-rending wail, a huge force also stirred in Aaron's body. This force came so unexpectedly that he immediately threw Anjie'er out of his arms, and he fell to the dirty street with a "poof".
But that wasn't all, what really scared him was the current state of the HP slot in his field of vision, which represented his life force.
Aaron wasn't unwounded, but there had never been a time when his HP had dropped as quickly as he did at this moment. The speed of a galloping horse made him feel like he was flying away, and cold sweat spurted out of his body in an instant.
Am I going to die?
The good news is that Hades doesn't have such an impatience. Arlen's HP quickly dropped to red, but it was able to halt its depletion.
The bad news is that this dangerous blow to Aryan was just a blow from Irennu's miss. And the monster has now come to its senses.
"Less meddler and more nosy!" Elennu obviously blamed her failure to solve Angel's fault on Aaron, who was killed halfway, and decided to solve this obstacle first. Once again, she stabbed her spear-like claws, aiming at the back of Aren's heart.
However, at this moment, a figure flew in and desperately blocked Aren's body. It's none other than An Jie'er who reacted. This was a completely knee-jerk reaction - she didn't want to die, but she didn't want an innocent person to die because of her.
The appearance of this figure made Ilenu even more excited, and she couldn't help but open her mouth, looking forward to the moment when Angel turned into a cloud of light. She was sure it would make her feel good.
However, there is one being that will not let Ilenu get her wish, and that is the god of this world, the system.
"Bang!"
With a loud thud, a small, thin, rectangular window stood in front of Eleganu's claws. The window is pitch black and the words "Indestructible Object" are written in blood-red lettering. Just these few simple words, but like an iron wall, they protected An Jie'er.
"What!"
Irene was taken aback for a moment, and then reluctantly stabbed into the same position repeatedly, but no matter how many times she tried, the window would jump out of the way at the critical moment. As a result, she could only harvest a series of "bang-bang" loud noises in the end, but she couldn't hurt An Jie'er at all. This fact made her mad and completely ignored the changes that Angel had made at the moment.
Don't look at An Jie'er didn't suffer any harm, but she didn't feel good at all. Every time the window popped out, a stinging pain exploded inside her, as if an electric current was running from her head to the soles of her feet. The more and more the window jumps out, the more and more intense the current becomes, and even in the end, it builds up without dissipating.
Gradually, Angel felt that she had become a balloon, and she was about to burst with the gas in her body. The pain was unbearable, and she eventually let out a roar.
"Yikes!"
Suddenly, a pure white light burst out of its body, followed by a pair of huge snow-white wings. They surged out from below the shoulder blades, and the force of the impact caused by the Irenu earthquake was reversed.
But for Iren, this is where the pain begins.
"Uhh
The glow* from Angel's body caused an unimaginable burning pain for Eleno. Her HP hadn't been cut, but the pain was so real and unbearable. Window after window began to pop up in her field of vision, all with "BUG" characters written on them, one after another, one when one was turned off, and the next one would be the next, one after another, endlessly.
There is only one way to eliminate this pain, and that is to stay away from Angel. Elenu discovered this by unconsciously retreating, and fled without hesitation. The figure quickly disappeared behind the corner of the alley with the sound of footsteps.
"Heh......"
Immediately after, with a bang*, Angel also fainted on Aaron's back.
