Chapter 444: Stealing the Saint
Bang dang...... In the silence of the dungeon, the sound of the iron door opening was particularly harsh, and the little thief Helen was dressed in a thin garment, with two tender arms around her chest. Because the fighting spirit was sealed and could not resist the cold in the dungeon, a layer of fine prickly heat rose on her white arm. The body shrunk in the corner of the dungeon, shivering, and the chains on the wrists and ankles made the sound of metal clashing from time to time.
"You're waiting outside." A slightly old voice sounded at the entrance of the dungeon in the distance, and immediately someone answered 'yes', and then the iron door clanged again, and then only the sound of footsteps could be heard in the dungeon, walking towards Helen's cell.
Helen's eyes were full of despair, she had been locked up here for more than half a month. Although the people of the Holy See of Light did not torture her, she knew that in five days, it would be the Holy See's monthly judgment day, and at that time, she would be destined to be burned at the stake, without any luck.
After the little thief Helen left the city on the other side, he traveled all the way west, and with the excellent flying ability of the super-rank Golden Winged Tiger mount, he soon arrived at the supreme holy mountain of the Holy See.
After wandering around the periphery for a while, Helen finally decided to sneak into the Supreme Holy Mountain, and her goal was the "Holy Codex", which was closely guarded by the Holy See, that is, Li Feng's local stall "Encyclopedia of the Otherworld".
Helen has never told anyone about her background, in fact, her ancestor is the famous thief saint, and the fragments of the Holy Book scattered outside are all stolen by the original thief of the holy house.
The thief saint is also from a wealthy family, his family heirloom fighting spirit attribute is somewhat special, few people can cultivate to the top level, in fact, his family is not known for its strength. However, the Thief Saint is an exception, his talent is very outstanding, and he originally had no future in his fighting spirit, but he was cultivated all the way to the realm of the saint level, and at that time he was only a person in his forties, which can be regarded as a rare genius in the Titan Continent.
The family heirloom of the thief is not suitable for fighting with others, his family was originally a wealthy family, and it was also a huge wealth, so he would not have been allowed to do such a thing as stealing, but the thief saint was naturally funny, and very bold, he almost regarded life as a game, and often did things that made people stunned, stealing things is one of his many hobbies that make people laugh and cry.
Before the Thieves, there were also thieves in the Titan Continent. But thieves don't have to steal, in fact, thieves are very proficient in the arts, and they usually follow adventuring teams to explore ancient ruins or make a fortune as tomb robbers. It wasn't until the thief was born that the profession of thief was brought into full play.
The Thief Saint often likes to patronize the homes of the rich who are unkind, and then scatters the stolen money into the slums, and is a well-known thief. However, because the thieves are very measured, they don't kill them all, and his ability to escape is unparalleled in the world, so those families who are patronized by him, although they hate him so much, they can't do anything about him.
It wasn't until the thief was provoked by his friends to set his sights on the Holy See's "Holy Codex" that his tragedy was officially staged.
Of course, the skill of stealing saints is unparalleled in the world, and he has taken great pains and risks to finally succeed in bringing the Holy Book out of the Supreme Holy Mountain, and then preparing to show it off in front of his friends.
In fact, the thieves did not want to take the Holy Book as their own, and at that time there were no magical rumors about the Holy Codex, and the Holy Book was simply a holy relic of the Holy See. The thief is very competitive, and his vanity is also a little overflowing, he just wants to prove that his stealing skills are the best in the world, and he is worthy of the supreme bandit among the thieves.
But the thief didn't expect that his so-called friend would provoke him to steal the Holy Scripture, and his intentions were not simple at all. The thief took the Holy Book with great interest, ready to prove or show off his abilities to his friends, but his friends had already laid a net and waited for him to break in.
It's just that the ability to steal the saint to escape for his life is far beyond his friend's imagination, although the "Holy Scripture" got his hand as he wished, but the thief still escaped with a wound in the end.
At this time, the Holy See of Light learned that the Holy Book had been stolen, and the person who locked it up was the thief, so the strange people of the Titan Continent who had been arrogant for a generation became a lost dog hunted by the Holy See.
Fortunately, although the thief saint didn't know anyone and made a villain by mistake, he also had honest friends who were really willing to speak for him.
Through the mediation of his friends, the Holy See of Light finally agreed to not blame him for the past as long as the Holy Thief returned the Holy Book to the Supreme Holy Mountain.
A thief is worthy of a thief, and there is nothing in the world that he can't steal. After he recovered from his wounds, it only took him a few days to steal the Holy Book from his friend who betrayed him, and he also stole the head of the villain who betrayed his friend. After taking revenge, the thief took the Holy Book and set foot on the Supreme Holy Mountain.
At that time, the immortal was just running into the death of the previous Pope Formosus, the Stephen Pope took office, and the Holy Canon had just been stolen and sent back to the Most Holy Mountain, but the Holy See suddenly turned its face and denied people, ignoring the previous promise, insisting on burning the thief at the stake, and purifying him from his sins with a blazing holy fire.
The thief is not stupid, of course, he will not be so two hundred and five tied hands, his ability to escape is worthy of being unparalleled in the world, and he really escaped from the Supreme Holy Mountain.
But the thief didn't get complacent for a few days, and he heard the bad news that made his hands and feet cold and almost fainted - his family was ruled as a heresy by the Holy See of Light for no reason, and the whole family, young and old, did not leave a single one, and all of them were burned at the stake and burned alive.
The domineering Bright Holy See, what he likes to do most is Zhu Lian, the thief did not expect that because of him, the entire family would be implicated, so that the originally glorious family would be destroyed in the blink of an eye, and even be infamous forever - all those who were burned at the stake by the Holy See were sinners who were spurned.
This made the thief of the Sacred Heart like ashes, and almost in front of the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors, he apologized for his crimes.
Although the thief knew that he was indeed at fault for stealing the Holy See's treasure "Holy Codex", but the Holy See did not ask about it, and regarded his entire family as a heretic, but it was too cruel and vicious, so unlike Dai Tian's mortal enemy, as long as he was a bloody person, he would never swallow his anger and not try to retaliate, so the thief saint quickly gave up the idea of suicide and began to plot revenge.
The thief saint knows that his fighting spirit attribute is not suitable for fighting with others, although he is also a saint-level powerhouse, but if he wants to take revenge with his own strength, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream, not to mention that the power of the Holy See is all over the Titan Continent, can he still kill every clergyman of the Holy See? That's certainly not realistic.
The skills of the thief saint all his life are on the word 'thief', so the focus of his revenge also falls on the word 'thief'. Didn't your Holy See say that I had stolen the Holy Scriptures and was a heinous crime? Okay, then I'll just steal the Holy Book again and put my own charges into practice.
However, the Supreme Holy Mountain has always been the holy place of the Holy See, and it is not so easy to break into, especially after a theft of the Holy Scripture, the defense is simply extremely strong. After a lot of hard work, the thief finally managed to sneak into the Supreme Holy Mountain, but at the last moment, he still missed. In fact, it was not a complete miss, he ripped off most of the "Holy Codex", escaped from the Supreme Holy Mountain with a serious injury, and has never been heard from again.
The family of the thief was all wiped out, but the Holy See didn't know that the thief wandered the Titan continent and showed mercy everywhere, although he never got married in his life, he had an illegitimate child outside.
This illegitimate son is Helen's grandfather, when the thief escaped from the Supreme Holy Mountain, the injury was too serious, and almost all of his fighting spirit was abolished, and he only lived for a few years before he died, but his skills and will were inherited by his son.
The descendants of the thief saint are now the only one left in the little thief Helen, and she broke into the Supreme Holy Mountain this time in order to steal the "Holy Codex" and complete the will of the ancestors.
However, it is a pity that although the skills of the Thief Saint have been handed down, the talent of the Thief Saint is really not comparable to any of his descendants. Although the little thief Helen is also a stunning genius, she is still far from the realm of her ancestors, so she misses as expected.
The sound of footsteps stopped outside the door of Helen's cell, and the key was unlocked, and the iron door clicked open.
Helen looked indifferently at the person who came in, this was an old man wearing a red priest's robe, looking kind, but Helen knew that she couldn't just look at people, this old man was actually an extremely disgusting pervert.
"Baby, have you thought about it?" As soon as the old man spoke, the kind expression on his face became a little distorted, "There are five days left before Judgment Day, and there is not much time for you to think about it, and on Judgment Day, even if I, Cliff, am a cardinal, there is no way to help you get rid of your guilt, so you don't regret it at that time." ”
Helen said coldly: "I'd rather be burned alive by fire than be touched by you disgusting pervert, you die of this heart." ”
It's not the first time Cardinal Cliff has been rejected, and he didn't feel much surprise when he heard this, but he sneered, "Little baby, you really make me like it more and more, it doesn't matter, a delicious young tooth beauty like you, when she was burned to death by the holy fire, that expression of pain and struggle, is also my favorite, ho ......ho ho
Cardinal Cliff's laughter was filled with a perverted hideousness that made Helen shudder to hear it. In the past half a month, she has already seen the other party's perversion, but she didn't expect that the other party, as a clergy and a cardinal second only to the Pope, could be psychologically distorted to such a point.
"Stay away from me, or if I scream, you'll be ruined in no time." Helen stared coldly at Cardinal Cliff as he approached her.
Cardinal Cliff suddenly stopped, and said with a smile: "The little baby is really strong, but do you really have no nostalgia for this world?" As long as you promise to follow me in the future, you don't have to be burned at the stake, how old are you? Don't you feel sorry that you haven't even enjoyed the highest happiness in your life, and you just die like this? ”
Helen didn't want to say another word to this old pervert, it would make her feel extremely disgusting.
Fortunately, the Holy See has its own laws, even as a cardinal, he can't mess around in the dungeon, otherwise Helen doesn't know what kind of humiliation she will suffer.
The priest of the Holy See of Light asked for abstinence, but a large number of psychologically distorted old perverts were banned, and the more the desire was suppressed, once it started, the more terrible it became.
"Heh, on the Supreme Holy Mountain, there is such an ugly scene, tsk, the gods educated by the God of Light, is this the case? It's really disappointing......" A strange yin and yang sound suddenly sounded in the dungeon, and the hairs behind Cardinal Cliff stood on end, and a piercing chill rushed to his brain.
