Chapter 429: Companions (12)

The Emblem of Glory is a high-level magical ornament awarded by the Holy See to every cardinal, and it symbolizes status and status like the red robes on their bodies.

Quinine is not yet a cardinal, but the emblem was given to him by Lord St. Desai, the "Eye of Scrutiny", one of the three cardinals, as a reward for some of his previous contributions.

When the light of the Glory Emblem fell on him, Quinine's body lit up with a faint circle of light, and at the same time, fluorescent flow continued to flow around him, and almost the whole person was shrouded in milky white brilliance, looking solemn and solemn.

"You are enemies of the Holy See!"

Quinine's voice was a little hollow, but as he spoke, there were fluctuations in the bodies of everyone present.

This is the "Truth Word Punishment", which is more powerful than the high-level Punishment Technique that can only be released by the Bishop-level Clergy, and not only contains the Qiē effect of the High-level Punishment Technique, but also makes the enemies identified by the Clergy more susceptible to damage by the Divine Technique.

Quinine then swung his scepter out of his hand and struck it at the barbarian's spear, a flash of dazzling light, and Sapa's tall figure froze for a moment, then involuntarily stepped back.

A rod drove the barbarian back, and Quinine stretched out his right hand and said, "Divine power has descended!"

Just as Fiona's hands were about to press behind his back, the bishop turned and threw a single punch.

With a muffled thud, the vampire girl's body drifted away, and she drew a trajectory in mid-air and continued to fly back.

Quinine ignored it, and after repelling Fiona, he drank a few syllables in quick succession.

"Tenacity!"

"Elemental Enchantment!"

"Battle Blessing!"

"Sword Barrier!"

Streams of light and shadow surged across Quinine's body, and several blades condensed with divine power appeared in a nearby area of several meters. Float up and down around his body.

At this point, Quine's strength is extremely close to that of a full-fledged cardinal, which is the powerful boost provided by the Emblem of Glory.

"It looks like you've got a thick leg in the Holy See. ”

Fiona said coldly and sarcastically. Then she lunged without pause, stopping Quinine from walking towards the stone platform.

At this time, on the side of the stone platform, although Li Ang knew that the strength of a magic item from Bishop Quinine Tong Guò had greatly increased, his attention did not stay on the battle of the three people there, but stared at the changes on the stone platform.

Since the slab shattered, a cloud of black mist gradually spilled out from beneath Sophia, and then rose. Condensed, and finally attached to the sword of sanctions, but it was vaporized by the giant sword in an instant. It turned into a colorless gas and evaporated towards the sky.

Immediately afterward, more mist erupted, like black pythons standing up with their heads held high, scrambling to wrap themselves around the sword of sanctions.

The greatsword began to tremble slightly, as if feeling anger at the onslaught of the black mist. It becomes extremely bright. The "pythons" dissolved as soon as they approached, but the black mist seemed to be endless, and it became more ferocious, and soon, the sword of sanction trembled and began to shake violently - it seemed to turn from anger to fear.

Leon quickly reacted, that black mist should be the so-called dark power, but what made him unable to figure it out was. As a bishop and priest of the Holy See, why do you have a tablet of stone that contains the power of darkness? And why is this slate used to initiate the so-called Holy Light Sanction Ceremony?

As the power of the two diametrically opposed powers poured into each other, a strange noise appeared nearby, sounding like the mournful cry of a young woman tormented by excruciating pain, or like an old witch laughing in a high-pitched voice, or like the angry roar of some creature.

Whatever it was, these sounds mingled together to form a terrifying sound wave that traveled unbridled around the stone platform.

Leon didn't feel anything special, but when his gaze stumbled around him, he noticed that Katerina's expression was quite painful, and blood slowly oozed from under his nose.

The girl's body had almost healed after the effect of the Divine Blessing Technique had disappeared, so Leon was immediately taken aback when he saw her appearance and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Voice...... It's so uncomfortable," Caterina said, frowning.

Only then did Li Ang realize that he was already immune to spiritual attacks when he advanced to the Red Dragon Bloodline, so he just felt that the sounds around him were noisy, but he didn't expect that this sound itself was equivalent to a powerful spiritual attack.

"You go back first!" he commanded at once.

"No, I'm going to look at Sophia!" the girl was stubborn.

Leon glanced back, and Red retreated after the invisible storm had vanished, guarding Erin and Melissa, who were still unconscious, and they were a little farther away, so they were unaffected.

"Okay, but don't be pushy, if you feel something is wrong, leave quickly!"

Receiving Katerina's response, Leon once again focused his attention on the stone platform, his emotions became more and more nervous, and even the hand holding the weapon was already a little wet,

"When will I be able to use my will of immortality?" thought to the young man.

Leon had drunk the mid-level healing potion concocted by Kaka before, but compared to his current vitality, the effect of this potion was no longer obvious, and he could only barely offset the damage fed back by the tenacity talent, so that he was still weak in his limbs and his body was floating, let alone participating in the battle, he couldn't even activate a skill.

So now is his most dangerous moment.

However, he still wanted to persevere, because the Immortal Will was his only powerful means of recovery, and if he could save Sophia from the ritual for a while, no matter how strict her situation was, as long as he could activate the Immortal Will, there would be hope of saving her.

"Sapa and Fiona should have no problem dealing with a bishop, right?"

Thinking of this, Leon raised his eyes and looked at the battle group in the distance.

Quinine's strength had clearly crossed a level, and although the barbarians and vampires had combined forces to besiege him, he still slowly approached the stone platform, and at this time it seemed that there was still a distance of about fifty meters.

The barbarian was wounded, and from Leon's point of view, he could see that his left shoulder was dented so that he was slower than before, so he was now just blocking the opponent and defending with all his might, while the task of attacking was completely handed over to Fiona.

The vampire girl seemed to be in a state of fire, her figure hovering around quinine, ready to attack from different angles.

Suddenly, Fiona stretched out her arm and grabbed Quinine's chest, but when her hand reached into the circle of light beside Quinine, a white blade suddenly appeared and slashed at the back of the girl's hand.

The back of Fiona's hand was barely damaged, but the white blade turned into a burst of white light and disappeared into Quinine's side like a ripple.

However, the blade also blocked the blow, leaving the girl in vain, and Quinine clearly did not want to let her go, and the scepter struck with a thud and landed on Fiona's body.

Leon was startled, and then he noticed that the scepter had stopped castrating when it was only a fraction of a cent away from Fiona, and a black wave erupted at its landing point, flicking the scepter back.

Fiona raised her arms as she retreated, her fingers crossed, drawing a strange symbol in the air, and when the last finger fell, the symbol twisted and turned into three black, thin palms that flew towards quinine.

Leon recognized that this was the "Blighted Claw" that Leonardo had released, but when Leonardo cast it, it was just a black light close to the shape of his palm, and Fiona's withered claws cast this time were not only condensed in shape, but also numbered three.

"Ridiculous! Trying to use this against me!"

Quinine snorted, the scepter raised in front of him, the withered claws literally "withered" in the light emanating from the staff's head, and finally a white blade appeared, completely crushing the wave of attacks.

There was a constant flash of white or black light between the two, and the aftermath of these attacks or defenses proved how fierce their battle was, and Leon didn't expect Quinine to become so powerful after taking out a holy emblem that even the combination of Sapa and Fiona could only slow him down, but not really cause damage.

Quinine is showing her might, but at this time, Sophia's situation is still unclear, and the shape is very unfavorable.

Leon suddenly shouted, "Fiona!

"Are you finally willing to ask me?" Fiona turned to the young man and grinned, as if even if the battle situation was unfavorable, it did not hinder her mood at this time.

Leon was angry, but for Sophia's sake, he said patiently, "Yes, Miss Fiona, please tell me what to do next!"

"Wait. ”

Fiona said confidently.

“...... You!"

"Don't worry, if you want to know the real reason, then I will tell you all after the battle is over, but until then, you can only wait, until the dark power cancels out the remaining energy of the ritual, and then make up for Sophia's injuries, and finally break the vortex of holy power and the chain of bondage in her body, which is officially completed. ”

"Damn vampires!" Quinine suddenly burst out, "You're so familiar with the Holy Light Sanction Ritual, it seems that there are traitors within the Holy See!"

"Sue me!

Fiona's attack was once again intercepted by the blade barrier at Quinine's side, and she retreated sharply, her palm grazed by the scepter.

The vampire girl stood behind Sapa, raising her hand to look at the slight redness on the back of her hand, and a hint of strangeness flashed across her face.

However, she quickly regained her normal and smiled, "Do you think I will sue you?"

"It's okay if you don't say it," quinine said loudly, "When I subdue you all, there is a way for you to say it!"

Fiona did not return the favor this time, but said to Leon: "The big man is almost unable to support it, you should hurry up and recover! ”

When Leon heard this, his gaze shifted from the stone platform to Fiona's face, and said, "The big man can't support it?"

"Rest assured, Sapa will hold on, and for a long time. (To be continued......)
