Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Victims (Fifth Thanks, Golden Alliance, Under the Sycamore)
Feeling the light dim, Lumian quickly opened his eyes.
The black robe worn by the "Invisible Man" lay on the altar, the surface was scorched, but it didn't stop, trying to get back up against the golden flames made by Valentine.
The transparent faces, including Raymond, disappear and reappear, as if the destroyed "future" has returned to the "now" where nothing happened.
Seeing this, Ryan immediately shouted, "Squat!"
Without hesitation, Lumian bent his knees and crouched down.
If it weren't too late, he would even want to lie directly on the ground.
Liya and Waxintai were not much slower than him, and they also crouched down.
At the same time, Ryan placed the "Sword of Dawn" in his hand in the center of the altar and inserted it into the black robe.
Silently, the greatsword of light disintegrated into countless shards, turning into a brilliant storm of dawn within the altar, tearing at everything and destroying everything.
When the hurricane of light subsided, Lumian looked up and saw that the entire altar was a third shorter, and the thorn symbols, candle oil, and black robes were all gone, turning into powder and floating in the air.
This trick is so strong...... Lumian wanted to do that yesterday afternoon.
"Are you alright?" He asked.
Leah stood up and spun in circles, the four little silver bells on her veil and boots clanging again, not too soothing or intense.
"There are hidden dangers." She reminded Ryan and Valentine, and then muttered to herself in confusion, "The altar is gone, where does the danger come from?"??
As she spoke, Valentine created golden flames that floated into the air and shone in all directions.
At the edge of the basement, there was nothing but stacked human bones and a few sheepskins, and the ceiling was simple and plain, not even a chandelier.
Lumian sighed, "No extraordinary characteristics?"
"It may have been sacrificed." Ryan said simply, "It may also be that they didn't receive many gifts at the beginning, and their strength was not strong, so they could only capture ordinary people as sacrifices, and only when they had good extraordinary abilities, such as this time, did they start targeting the extraordinary." ”
It can be seen that they are not unfamiliar with the phenomenon of receiving "gifts".
Ryan then said: "There is nothing else to discover at the moment, let's leave, there is no need to confront the hidden danger."
Lumian didn't react, and looked around again, looking for a secret door from the subtle traces.
The answer is no.
He led the way, leading Leah, Ryan, and Valentine along a safe route to the basement exit.
As soon as he came out, returning to the narrow and steep staircase, Ryan suddenly snorted in pain.
His body flew up on its own, slamming into the side of the brown wooden door in the basement, causing a noticeable vibration to be felt in the staircase area.
"Poof"!
Ryan's chest seemed to be pierced by an invisible spear, revealing an exaggerated wound that caused him to remove
Individuals were nailed to the wall, blood gushing out.
If it weren't for his extremely fast reaction, teleporting his back and twisting his body, this blow would definitely pierce his heart.
And Leah, who always turned on the "Spiritual Vision", couldn't find the attacker at all!
It's like Ryan is being punished by the gods.
Before they could find the source of the problem, Leah's expression was instantly distorted.
Her arms folded backwards on their own.
With a click, her bones snapped and her arms hung limply.
Immediately after, there was a noticeable depression in her abdomen, as if she had been hit by a huge fist, which made her take a step back and hit the wall on the side, the latest and fastest update was released.
Valentine, who had not yet climbed the stairs, screamed.
The ribs in his chest were crumbling inward, as if someone had struck him with a giant hammer.
There was a loud pop, and a bloody wound appeared on Ria and Valentine's abdomen and chest, which penetrated their bodies and plunged into the stone wall.
Lumian was a little stunned, dazed by the inexplicable change, and glad that he didn't seem to have been attacked by this strange attack.
That black thorn symbol protects me? As soon as he flashed this thought, he suddenly felt himself being pushed by an invisible force, and leaned against the wall on the side of the staircase.
In his "spiritual vision", there was nothing in front of him.
Thinking of what happened to Ryan, Lumian immediately moved his body to the side.
Intense pain instantly filled his mind, and the skin on his right chest burst open, and the flesh bloomed, and the inner lobe of the lung could be faintly seen.
Lumian felt as if there was an extra rod in the form of a substance, piercing himself through and nailing it to the wall.
As his bright red blood flowed, Ryan filled the area with spots of light like the dawn of light, which was effective in warding out evil and debunking illusions.
However, the four of them still couldn't see anything.
Bang!
Ryan's chest was hammered with an invisible blow, and it sunk deeply.
Leah's veil and the small silver bells on her boots echoed violently, and the nails on her hands were pried open and pulled one by one by an invisible force, stained with blood.
The unspeakable pain made her unable to control her expression anymore, and her face was contorted and frightened.
Valentine opened his hands and let the pillar of divine light that fell out of thin air fall directly on him.
The sun's rays erupted, clearing away all evil and setting Valentine's body on fire.
But under the illumination of the "sun", his hands suddenly stretched back uncontrollably, sticking to the wall.
Two blood-colored holes appeared in his wrists, nailing them to the wall.
By the time the light subsided, Valentine's face was scorched, and his skin was being peeled off inch by inch.
Seeing what happened to them, Lumian couldn't help but feel pain for them.
I don't know if the black thorn symbol played a role, he was relatively not so miserable, but he was constantly slapped by the invisible force, left, right, left, right, so that his face was red and swollen, his teeth were loose, and he couldn't speak.
When a new assault was about to come, Lumian saw a wilderness in front of his eyes.
Mountains in the distance, grassy wilderness in the distance.
Two devil-like creatures with sheep's horns pulled a dark red convertible carriage like a conch, and quickly came to Lumian and the others from a distance.
Sitting in the car was a woman in a fresh green dress and a laurel wreath of flowers, with long brown hair and high brown eyes, and a majestic and noble temperament, like a much more mature Madame Poalis.
She kept her promise to help a little? Lumien was surprised at first, then glad to find that the others were no longer attacked by the invisible force.
For some reason, he never felt that the person in front of him was Lady Pualis, or rather, not exactly equal to Lady Puaris, she was like Lady Pualis and the unnatural property stitched together by some will, and Lumian preferred to call this "Lady of the Night, unlike when they met in the other world, Lady Pualis held an oak branch with a mistletoe entwined in one hand, and a small bowl made of green jade in the other."
The small bowl contains a liquid that shimmers and sparkles.
Lady Pualis dipped the oak branch in the liquid of the jade bowl and sprinkled them on Lumian and the others.
After she sprinkled it three times in a row, Lumien noticed that the wound on her chest began to heal rapidly, the redness and swelling on her face quickly subsided, and she no longer felt like she was pinned to the wall and could not move.
Leah, Ryan, and Valentine were also completely healed, and they couldn't tell that they had been brutally hurt just now.
"What struck us?" Lumian spoke with the mindset that he would not lose anything by asking.
Madame Poalis, who was sitting in a dark red carriage, said condescendingly:
"You're getting a little bit of the sufferer's breath, but it's only a little bit, or you'll have to think about restarting.
"The breath of the sufferer, what is it?" Lumian glanced at Ryan and the others, and found that they were also puzzled.
Madame Poalis replied softly, "That's all I know."
"Do you know what happened to the dead wizards and owls in the cemetery? Lumian asked.
Madame Poalis glanced at him: "If I had known, things wouldn't have turned out like this, I had planned to make this place my domain', but now I have to leave."
Running into your territory? Lumi was shocked, and felt that falling into a cycle didn't seem entirely bad: "If Mrs. Pualis really achieved her original purpose, Aurel and I don't know how many children we will have now!"
"Compared to this kind of ending, it is not so difficult to accept that you are trapped in a cycle that can be destroyed at any time.
"At least you died innocently!"
Lady Pualis glanced at Ria and said nothing, letting the two devil-like black creatures pull the conch-like carriage and turn into the depths of the wilderness.
When her figure disappeared from the eyes of Lumian and the others, the wilderness disappeared.
At this time, they found themselves still in the basement, half on the stairs, close to the wooden door.
If it weren't for the blood and falling fingernails on the ground and on the walls, they would have thought they had just been subjected to a real hallucination.
"Leave first." Ryan quickly came back to his senses and instructed Valentine, "Dispose of the traces we left behind." ”
Valentine nodded, summoning an illusory golden flame that burned away the blood and nails.
All the way back to the church, the four were not attacked again.
I don't know if the "suffering" breath was consumed or cleared by the liquid spilled by Madame Poalis
Dropped.
Lumian was about to exit through the side door when he suddenly saw Father Michelle of the Replica Hall. Garigu was standing outside the room where several of the sleeping servants were kept, staring inside.
Did this guy come back with a full stomach? Lumian was just about to dodge it, when Michelle, with curly brown hair and a good look, jerked her head sideways and saw them.
Ryan was about to go over and knock this guy unconscious, and Michel Garigu asked with an unusually enthusiastic smile, "Are you here to pray?" Do I need to make a confession?"
Everyone else in this church has fallen, but you care about confession or not? Lumian looked at Michelle like he was looking at a crazy man.
Compared to last time, this guy's abnormality is clearly manifested!
