Chapter 9: Blasphemy Rituals
Trials Space.
The secret realm of the heavenly realm, the Holy White Tower.
In fact, it is a mountain that resembles a giant tower.
The white peaks that reach into the sky are 70,000 feet high!
From the bottom up, seven martial arts temples were built against the invasion of demons.
Among them, the supreme monastery on the top of the mountain is divided into two houses: the east and the west.
The east courtyard is shrouded in white clouds all day long, named "Cloud Seat", and the first seat is a 7th-order Love Tower Heavenly Clan, known as "Huiyuntian".
The West Courtyard only appears in the moonlight, named "Moon Temple", and the first one is also the 7th-order Aita Heavenly Clan, known as "Yuehuatian".
The monasteries at all levels under the "Cloud Seat" and the "Moon Temple" also have angelic legions of corresponding ranks stationed.
At the foot of the mountain, the largest martial arts monastery, called "Asmo Cathedral", is guarded by 4~5 angels such as "Mastiff First Day", "Winged Snake Heaven", "Peng Yu Heaven", "Lion First Heaven", etc., and is open to all celestial creatures.
During the war, the trialists who joined the "Holy White Tower" camp also initially assembled at Asmo Cathedral to receive combat missions.
Complete quests, gain military merits, and unlock higher privileges to travel to higher-level monasteries, accept more difficult tasks, and get more generous rewards.
Today, the flames of war have burned throughout the Holy White Tower.
From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, all the monasteries are defending themselves against the onslaught of demons or armies of demons.
If it weren't for the fact that the demons and the devil themselves were also engaged in infighting, stealing from each other from time to time, the Holy White Tower might not be able to hold out now.
Of all the seven monasteries, Asmo Cathedral is the most stressed.
Most of the enemies who attack this place are low-level demons.
The strength of the individual is not strong, and there are too many of them!
Like locusts, they kill one wave and one wave after another, without giving the defenders a chance to breathe.
On the other hand, the defenders of Asmo Cathedral are also mixed.
Powerful high-level angels, including trialists from the Silvermoon Monastery, are stationed in the high-level monastery to fight against even more powerful demons.
The heavenly realm, in fact, is also a society that pays attention to class and privilege.
The precious high combat power is not worth wasting in a "novice village" like Asmo Cathedral.
The troops who were ordered to garrison Asmo Cathedral were not even the real "Celestials".
Most of them are mixed races of the Celestial Race and mortal races such as humans, elves, and dwarves, which are the so-called "Asmos".
Similar to the "Tieflin", a hybrid of the devil and a mortal, Asmo was born with extraordinary abilities and is considered a natural warlock.
It's just that, dragged down by the mortal bloodline, the talent for spell-casting is not as good as that of a real angel, and his status is relatively low.
As night fell, the demonic attack intensified.
The cathedral has been temporarily converted into a field hospital, and the floor is littered with wounded soldiers.
The low-ranking priest in white robes tried his best to alleviate the pain of the wounded soldiers.
However, with their mana, they can only heal flesh and skin wounds.
There is nothing that can be done about the disability of a missing arm or leg.
At this moment, two angels covered in blood descended from the sky.
One is the eagle-headed human body, with wings on the back of the "Peng Yutian".
The other is the "lion's head" with a lion's head and a thick golden mane.
With a wounded man in his arms, he hurried to the gate.
The Asmo warriors, who were guarding the door of the church, hurriedly greeted them and bowed.
"Lord Julie! Lord Ferrin! Thank you very much! ”
"Cage and Mano are injured and need first aid, open the door!"
Julie said eagerly.
The doorman's face changed when he heard this.
Cage and Mano are both high-ranking priests of Asmo Cathedral.
After the unfortunate death of the abbot, these two fifth-order priests became the backbone of the defenders.
Even these two adults were seriously wounded and unconscious, which shows how fierce the battle on the front line was.
"Excuse me, who injured the two adults, high-level demons?"
The doorman opened the door and inquired.
Fei Lin shook his head and replied with a serious face: "The murderers who hurt the two adults are the Rakshasa Evil Ghost and the Lust Magician. ”
"Huh?!"
The doorman was taken aback.
Rakshasas and the devil have also joined the siege of Asmo Cathedral, and the church may not be far from being lost!
Crunch –
The church doors are open.
The passage leading to the hall was blocked by a layer of golden barriers.
Any outsider who enters the church gate must first pass through this barrier and be identified.
If it is a demon in disguise or possessed by an evil spirit, an alarm will be triggered and the original form will appear.
Julie and Ferrin, each picking up a wounded man, walked to the door with unchanged faces.
At this moment, a red light suddenly flashed behind him!
Shout!
Like a long rainbow, it passed through the sister and brother and shot towards the open door.
Boom!!
The golden barrier was bombarded by the beam, trembling violently and shattering......
The guards in front of the door were stunned, and they all looked at the place where the red light came from.
The sky shrouded in night was flickering by the light of the fires on the battlefield.
A long-haired woman could be faintly seen, standing proudly in the air.
Looking closely, everyone can't help but feel a chill down their spines!
This witch has a slender figure, but her appearance is extremely terrifying!
Eight claws and eight eyes, carrying the blood wheel!
It was a spider mother rakshasa .
Rakshasa Witch, flicking her fingers in the air.
The scarlet beam of light emitted from the fingertips not only has a strong penetrating power, but also has a special effect of dispelling magic.
Shoot the "Anti-Evil Barrier" of Asmo Cathedral with one finger!
As everyone watched in horror, a large group of Asmosorcers flew into the night sky.
They have all turned on their atavistic forms, with white wings spread on their backs, angelic halos on their heads, and enchanted swords in their hands, besieging the Rakshasa Witch.
Spider Mother Rakshasa sneered slightly.
Eight eyes on his face, and a murderous light appeared at the same time.
Swish!
Countless threads of vindictive spirit erupted from her.
A dense net was woven into the night sky, and in the blink of an eye, all the celestial warlocks who attacked from all sides were restrained.
Spider Mother Rakshasa calmly swings eight strange limbs.
Like a spider's web.
At the same time, the celestial warlocks who were entwined with the silk threads of vindictive qi also danced with her movements, as if they had become a group of marionettes.
Using the "puppet technique", the spider mother Rakshasa remotely controls the celestial warlocks and turns to kill their companions.
Under the control of this witch, a cannibalistic tragedy is being staged.
"Damn it!"
With a look of indignation, Fei Lin handed over the wounded man in his arms to a guard and rushed into the air towards the Spider Mother Rakshasa in the air.
"These two wounded are handed over to you, and they will be sent for treatment!"
Julie hurriedly confessed, and also turned and flew to the battlefield.
At this time, another graceful and terrifying figure appeared in the night sky.
It was a demon in pitch-black leather armor, surrounded by a flock of bird-like tubular metal devices.
Julie and Felin, before they could get close to the spider mother Rakshasa, were intercepted by the floating cannon controlled by the demon remote, and their figures were drowned in the flowing fire.
Laugh at!
A janitor, unfortunately hit by a stray bullet from a floating cannon.
It was too late to scream, and the whole body was full of pitch-black flames.
In the blink of an eye, the unlucky egg was burned to charcoal.
The corpse exploded, spraying hellfire in all directions.
Another nearby guard, who had no time to dodge, was also ignited by the hellfire.
He rolled on the ground in fright, but he couldn't extinguish the vicious black fire.
I'm going to be burned alive......
"Ahem......"
Grand Priest Cage woke up from his coma in time.
He sat up with his support and clenched the emblem with trembling palms.
Hmmm-
The radiance of holiness surged from the gray-haired old man.
The guards who were suffering from the hellfire were illuminated by the Holy Light, and the black flames on their bodies were immediately extinguished, and the burns healed at a speed visible to the human eye.
The guards around them were all relieved when they saw this.
However, Officer Cage, who cast the spell with an injury, fainted again.
Just when everyone was overwhelmed, Mano sat up.
The gray-haired priest with glasses is younger and physically stronger than Cage.
Just now, when Cage channeled his divine power and released the holy light, Mano also followed suit.
Illuminated by the Holy Light, the pain was relieved and he was awakened.
Now, it's Mano's turn to take care of his friends.
"Quick, help me get Mr. Cage to church!"
Mano commanded the guards.
"My magic has dried up, and only by returning to the church and activating the Rejuvenation Circle on the altar can I save Mr. Cage."
The guards immediately picked up Officer Cage and followed Mano through the church gates.
Mano stopped suddenly, and asked the guards with a sinking face.
"Exorcism Enchantment, why hasn't it been activated?"
"Sorry...... Mr. Mano, the church has just been attacked by the Rakshasa demons, and the barrier has been destroyed. ”
"Hell! This is a huge security hazard that must be fixed as soon as possible before demons get involved! ”
The guard shrugged and was silent.
Of course, they know that this is a safety hazard, but unfortunately there is nothing they can do about it.
The church, including Priest Cage, lay a ground of critically wounded people who were dying.
The few remaining low-level priests are already too busy to take care of the wounded, so how can they have the energy to repair the enchantment.
These whining words, they dare not say in front of Mano.
Officer Mano was a stilted, harsh, and uninteresting man, and the guards could not expect his understanding.
Fortunately, Mano also knows what to prioritize.
Without much thought about repairing the barrier, he hurried to the church hall where the wounded soldiers were parked, made a vacant seat in front of the altar, and helped Officer Cage to lie down.
The guards went back to guard the church gates.
The low-ranking priests in the church were all summoned by Mano.
At Mano's request, they stood around the altar and prepared to unite the forces of the people to perform the "Rejuvenation Ritual".
A white jade altar that looks like a bath.
The central groove, seven meters in diameter and three meters deep, is filled with clean water.
Once the "Rejuvenation Ritual" is successfully launched, it will spread out around the altar and radiate the entire church hall.
The people who are in the circle will slowly recover their physical strength and vitality.
Although the "Rejuvenation Circle" cannot regenerate the disabled and break their limbs, it can at least prevent the injury from worsening.
In particular, a seriously injured person like Officer Cage, who has full limbs, has been treated with the "Rejuvenation Circle", and the effect is particularly good.
A total of twelve priests participated in the rejuvenation ceremony, including Mano who stood in front of the holy pool and served as the officiant.
The priests held up the emblem and chanted prayers in unison in praise of the light.
Since the gods of the Celestial Realm failed in their struggle with the Warlock Ancestors, they lost their powers, the Kingdom of God was destroyed, and they themselves were sealed in the depths of the Astral Void, and their corpses were reduced to a cold star wrapped in the Immortal Divine Fire......
The Heavenly Realm, which was reduced to ruins in the flames of war, has also ushered in a great change in faith.
Almost all the angels and Asmos chose to abandon the worship of concrete gods and instead offer their faith to the abstract "Light".
No one knows exactly what the "Holy Light" is.
Invisible and omnipresent, He is said to be the first light in the universe.
All the idols that had been enshrined in the former church were removed.
The beautiful icons of the book of Ecclesiastes were also torn down.
Because the Light is formless, its followers must abide by one basic doctrine – not to associate with Allah!
The vigorous "iconoclasm campaign" lasted for centuries.
Eventually, the Church of All Gods was banned, and the Celestial Faith was united under the Light.
Priests who are inspired by the Light have access to divine magic, but no one has ever received specific instructions from the Light.
The Light does not command believers to do anything, but only gives them supernatural powers equal to their faith.
It's like a cold machine without joy and sorrow, running entirely on the principle of equivalent exchange.
Oddly enough...... The Warlock Ancestors took a tacit attitude towards the expansion of the Light faith.
He even secretly supported the followers of the Holy Light and rebuilt the Holy See in the ruins of heaven.
Why did the ancestor of the warlocks, who regarded the gods as their great enemy, be so tolerant of the Light faith alone?
Some speculate that the "Holy Light" is the embodiment of the "Ancestor of Light".
In the minds of believers, He is an abstract and all-powerful deity.
In the eyes of the Warlock, he is one of the oldest ancestors in the world, the creator of the bloodline of light.
The priests of the Holy Light refused to admit that the "First Ancestor" could also be canonized, and dismissed this heresy as a conspiracy theory.
The priests of Asmo Cathedral, including Priest Cage, are followers of the Light.
As they began to pray, the power of light poured out of them and gathered in the pool of holy water.
The clear water in the pool, glowing and steaming.
These flashes of steam quickly filled the church hall.
It nourishes the wounded, helps them relieve their pain, and heals wounds inside and outside the body.
As the circle runs, the water level in the pool slowly drops.
The ritual lasts for a full hour, and the holy water dries up.
This rejuvenation ceremony will also come to an end.
After a full day of recovery, the pool was refilled with holy water before the rejuvenation circle could be activated again.
Two minutes after the ceremony began, the priests noticed that something was wrong.
The pool of holy water was scarlet.
The steam rising from the pool also had an eerie red color, giving off a faint fishy smell......
What's going on?
Is holy water contaminated?
Sensing the commotion of his assistants, Officer Mano immediately sank his face.
"Stay focused! Do you want to kill Mr. Cage?! ”
In the face of the reprimand of the superiors, the lower-level priests were silent.
Since Priest Mano has asked everyone to continue the ritual, there is nothing wrong with it.
After all, now that he is the highest-ranking priest in the church, who else can everyone listen to if he doesn't listen to him?
So, the priests suppressed their doubts, put aside their distractions, and continued to cooperate with Mano to preside over a somewhat strange "rejuvenation ceremony".
No one noticed that Mano quietly launched a charm spell while reprimanding him sharply.
With his own authority, coupled with words containing magical powers, he unwittingly hypnotized the lower-ranking priests who participated in the ceremony.
The pool of holy water resembles a boiling porridge pot.
The clear water was completely transformed into a strange liquid as thick as blood.
Like a pool of chaotic blood in a bottomless abyss.
The blood-colored steam that filled the hall was frantically extracting the life essence of the wounded and converging on the body of the chief priest Mano.
This Asmo priest, whose original white-gold skin was already red with blood mist.
The muscles under the epithelia throb suddenly, and the whole person looks extremely hideous.
In the middle of the ceremony, Mano suddenly threw the emblem into the pool of holy water.
Immediately afterwards, he himself jumped into the pool with a thud.
Sneering –
Blood-colored pool water, which seems to be strongly corrosive.
Mano's body, dissolved in blood water.
The muscles break down, revealing pale bones.
In the blink of an eye, the internal organs of the bones also turned into pus and blood.
A misty germ was separated from his body and transformed into a naked and bewitching succubus!
The witch curled her red lips, smiled slightly, and immediately dived into the depths of the blood pool, disappearing.
All the priests surrounding the altar fell into deep hypnosis, still following their instincts, constantly pouring magic into the pool of blood.
In their imagination, they are performing a rejuvenation ritual to save lives and help the wounded.
As everyone knows, they have long been bewitched by the witch.
Overdraft your magic at any cost, and help the witch perform an evil promotion ritual in the holy church!
The vision of the blood-filled chapel finally aroused the alarm of the angels.
A figure, breaking in!
This is a fifth-order "Winged Serpent Heaven".
The lower body resembles a thick python, and above the waist is a bewitching female body.
Silver scales obscure sensitive areas, revealing large areas of smooth skin.
Behind him is a pair of white wings, holding a silver harp in both hands.
The beautiful winged serpent angel broke through the barrier of blood mist.
Hurried to the altar.
The scene in front of her made her heart sink!
The pool of holy water has been polluted by demonic blood from the abyss.
All the priests of the Holy Light who surrounded the pool to sacrifice have also degenerated into half-human, half-demon monsters.
"Despicable demons, I will not let you succeed!"
The Serpent Angel gritted his teeth and plucked the strings.
A string of melodious notes wafted out.
The angel of the winged serpent, like the bards of ancient times.
He is good at casting spells through musical instruments and playing sacred music that purifies evil spirits.
The sound of the piano echoed through the hall, and the blood gradually dissipated.
Deep in the pool of blood, dense bubbles appeared.
The witch hiding at the bottom of the pool seemed to feel threatened and was rolling in pain.
At the critical moment, the old man who was lying next to the altar suddenly sat up.
Raise your finger and shoot a green beam of light at the Winged Serpent Sky who was concentrating on playing!
Laugh at!
The winged snake was caught off guard and was hit by the "dissociation technique".
The delicate face suddenly lost its blood!
The harp, which was a ritual instrument, disintegrated into dust in her hands.
"Priest Cage, you-"
"I'm sorry, I'm not Cage."
The old man with gray hair suddenly exploded!
A tall, erect young man, naked, emerged from his flesh and blood.
The Winged Serpent changed color in shock, and hurriedly made a spell casting gesture.
But it was too late.
Thunder in the air!
The tall young man turned into electric light, and instantly approached her.
Reach out with your left palm and grab the beautiful face.
"I'm sorry!"
The apologetic sigh still echoed in the ears of the Winged Snake Heaven.
In the palm of Allen's left hand, bone spurs had already popped out.
With a snort, it runs through the center of the eyebrows and comes out of the skull!
Crimson pearl-like blood flowed down the spikes that emerged from the back of the Winged Snake Heaven's head.
Allen's face was expressionless, and he silently extracted the bloodline essence of the Winged Snake Heaven.
Until this glamorous corpse completely lost its vitality.
Crash......
There was the sound of water hitting behind him.
Alan left the body of the Winged Serpent and turned to look at the pool.
The red-haired witch who has completed her evolution slowly emerges.
Her jade-colored skin was crystal clear, and the demon's wings spread out behind her, and the edges seemed to be scorched.
The buttocks are full and straight, and a translucent scorpion tail extends from the tail vertebrae, with a texture like jade and a heart-shaped end.
This beautiful and seductive image is no stranger to Allen.
In the meditation world of the ogre wizard Zu Ling, he has seen witches who resemble the image of Helent.
"Lady Bewitched" Baiara is the so-called "dementor".
Alan and Helent, using "parasitism" to control the two injured priests, infiltrated Asmo Cathedral with the assistance of the Griffin siblings, just to help Helen advance to the Demon Collector.
Although there were some minor accidents, the result was perfect.
Helent got her wish and successfully advanced to the Demon Collector's level, which looked even more charming than before.
"Brother Allen, thank you for helping me fulfill my wish......"
Atavistic Helent, her eyes are full of affection.
Just naked and thrown into his arms.
Alan stroked the satin-smooth skin of the witch in his arms, and couldn't help but lose his mind.
The charm of the demon is so powerful.
Even he couldn't resist it.
Fortunately, Allen's spiritual attributes are high enough, and "Requiem Meditation" can automatically resist charm.
Soon came to his senses, and took out a white priest's robe from the storage bag to hide Helent's overly sexy carcass.
Helent put on the sacrificial robe, and her temperament changed suddenly.
From a bewitching witch to a holy goddess.
Eren knows that this is a unique ability of the detached, imitating the priesthood to confuse the real with the real, and even being able to emit holy light!
Not even magic could tell who she really was.
Alan himself put on a cloak to cover his body, took Helent's hand, and left the cathedral that had already been desecrated.
