Chapter 185: Resurrection, My Queen
"There...... It's scary......"
Seeing the pillar of light appear, there was silence on the approaching Bakli, and everyone's eyes widened as they watched what had happened on the ship that was clearly owned by the Church of Dawn.
, what a fierce person!
No, what a fierce wizard!
Or maybe it's not a human at all, it's a deep-sea beast in the form of a human, right?
How could anyone directly slaughter an entire Judge Knight, let alone a Grand Knight on it?
Seeing the familiar corpse explosion technique again, a touch of helplessness flashed on Black Jack's face, and he turned his head to look to the side, "Epidemic doctor, this little guy seems to have become even more terrifying." ”
Euan bowed slightly, the memory of being a neighbor with Wayne for months came to mind.
I remember that when he first arrived in the city-state of Caster, he was still a cautious little intelligence officer, who spent his days picking and searching and calculating every penny of life.
When did it start?
Oh, from the time he went to the Secret Division,
Ever since Wayne went to the Secret Division, he was like having obtained a relic of the previous era, his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, and his whole personality had also changed.
What hasn't changed is that he's taken a shot at the Church of the Dawn again...... Compared to him, I ......"
"That's something that can't be helped, after all, Carly is still in the Church of the Dawn, and she is still a saint-in-waiting. With your strength, let alone on this ship, even if it's their holy daughter, you can kill it. ”
As he spoke, Blackjack turned his head to look at the other side and chuckled: "Waleed, that person should be the one who killed Henrik, didn't you say you were going to fight him before?" I think it's a good opportunity now......"
"No kidding, boss!"
Waleed jumped onto the side of the ship and said without shame, "Am I the kind of person who takes advantage of people's danger?" After he's done dealing with the people on that ship and has some rest for a while, I can fight him. ”
"You say, right?"
"The boatswain is right, the pirates aboard the Black Pearl are not afraid of a challenge!"
"Real man!"
Black Jack smiled dumbly, with a hint of disdain on his face: "How can you say such noble words so shamelessly?" ”
"You don't believe me?" Waleed patted his chest and said, "If you don't make a bet, bet on whether I will wait for him to rest before finding a chance to fight?" ”
"A fool bets on you! I'm afraid that I won't be able to beat him and lose face, so I just say it! ”
"Who, who is afraid? I'm not even afraid of you, old ......"
Bang! Bang!
"Lao Tzu?" Blackjack grabbed him and pressed him on the deck, and his fist hammered up, "Waleed, I haven't been looking for you these days, I think you're itching......"
"Boss, I mean old, huh? Hurt! ”
"Hahaha......"
Not to mention the ease of the pirates on the Bekli, Marco, who was standing on the side of the ship, looked at Wayne with a much more complicated look, he killed some believers in the Church of the Dawn, it was really ......
With such a strong strength, how can I catch up?!
"Boss, that's Wayne? When you were in Custer before, the investigator you worked with? Mosquera asked thoughtfully.
"What? He's Wayne? The aberrant wizard who was put on the no-go list by Custer? ”
"That's him, you haven't read the newspaper before?"
"Drink and forget ......"
Marco nodded and took a deep breath, "It's him." ”
Now that he knew that the person who was impersonating him was Wayne, he had some inexplicable feelings in his heart.
It's so infuriating and funny......
Should we say that Wayne values him, or does Wayne have an opinion about him?
But one thing Marco is glad for is that the kid didn't become him when he shot at Dawn.
This is really a blessing in misfortune -
Otherwise, if he is charged with killing the Grand Knight of the Church of the Dawn, he will really not be far from death......
"After this time, he should be on the top list of the Dawn Church, right?" After beating Waleed, Black Jack felt much better, "Do you want to pull him into the Black Pearl?" ”
"What do you think?" Euan glanced at him, as if he was looking at an idiot, if he really wanted to invite Wayne on board, he was afraid that the journey would not be peaceful.
"Yes, is it still in the past? Looking at this situation, there should be another Holy Favored over there, maybe a Holy Maiden who has gained the authority of the dawn......"
"Authority?"
Euan's eyes flickered slightly, he thought for a few seconds, and nodded: "Go!" ”
"Huh?" Seeing his expression, Blackjack reacted, "You don't want to take her away, do you?" Boss, this is no joke! ”
"If she is really a saint with that potential, do you believe that once the matter is exposed, the heroic saint who has just been out to sea for a long time will come directly to her?"
Euan looked at the pillar of light with an expressionless face, "It's just right that you can invite Wayne on board." ”
Blackjack: "......"
What's the matter, this is because Wei En is not in trouble enough to pick a bigger mess, right?
"Otherwise, if you really brought Marco to that island, I'm afraid that the Hammer Prophecy Lady won't let you go, right?"
"Don't worry about this, it's better for Lao Tzu to be hammered than to be hunted down by the cardinals of Dawn......"
"I don't care, she, I want it!"
Euan had already made his decision, and he very much wanted that the Holy One to be the one with the authority of the Dawn, so ......
Carly, I'm going to free you from the grip of authority!
……
……
Meanwhile, the Clown Theater, Wayne's studio.
Claire lay on the soft carpet, covered with Wayne's coat, and her face was calm and serene, like a sleeping princess.
"Is something really wrong?"
A low, slightly helpless voice appeared in the studio.
Then I saw nothingness, a ripple, and the space seemed to be invisibly pushed around, piled up layer upon layer.
Immediately after, a figure slowly walked out of there, wearing a one-piece robe with a slightly lower hood, revealing only an angular jaw. In the dim candlelight, his tall figure looked mysterious.
The hooded man looked up, revealing a handsome face, thick dark eyebrows, and silver-gray eyes, who was none other than Claire's immediate boss, Menor Vannis Stringer, one of the twelve elders of the Eternal Society.
He looked at Claire's appearance at this time and chuckled, "What a worry-free subordinate...... Let me see what killed me this time...... Hmm, the power of faith at dawn, Grand Knight? ”
"I really don't know whether to say that you are unlucky, or lucky, every time you can meet some characters that you don't usually see."
Menor looked at it a few times, without further delay, and reached into the void with his hand, pulling out a box and opening it.
"Fortunately, I asked you to prepare a few more stand-in necklaces in advance, otherwise I don't know how many times I died."
As he spoke, he took out the contents and placed them on Claire's eyebrows.
It was an unpretentious necklace, and it looked like an ordinary ornament without any supernatural powers.
But after the necklace touched Claire's eyebrows, the necklace strangely blended into her body, as if it was part of this body.
After doing this, Menor's expression was slightly relaxed, and he read out a line from a famous musical and dance drama of the Fourth Age with a bad taste, "Resurrect, my queen~"
This is why he knows that the double necklace has been sealed for too long, and it will take some time to awaken Clea's origin.
Otherwise, he wouldn't risk being complained about by Claire and make such a joke.
With that in mind, Menor glanced around, walked to the workbench, sat down in a chair, and waited quietly for Claire to wake up.
This is supposed to be Wayne's studio, right?
"Runes, potions, machines...... Rather, he is a qualified wizard. ”
Menol was well-informed and had a wide range of friends, and he knew very well that wizards were different from other other-than-world systems. It is a special system that can only be promoted if you have enough knowledge.
Many times, he suspected that wizards were not the original forces of this world, but belonged to outsiders like those distorted species.
Of course, this was just his thoughts when he couldn't beat those legendary wizards, and he couldn't help but complain.
It's just that they're too perverted - not to mention spells with all kinds of weird abilities, they can also use the power of runes and Gonzales to exert power far beyond the level.
"Tsk, before I know it, I'm thinking of those damn bastards again."
"Oh? I don't know what kind of bastard it is, so impressed by Lord Menor~"
At this time, Claire woke up at some point, and said charmingly: "Speaking of which, let me also have a long experience~"
"Are you awake?" Menor's face froze, and then he naturally changed the subject: "Did you forget to say something to that little guy before you died this time?" ”
"Don't you ...... Well? Claire reacted and sat up and clutched her chest, "Wayne? ”
"Who else but him?"
"What's wrong?"
Menor chuckled, "I guess he didn't know that you had prepared multiple stand-in necklaces and were fighting the people of the Church of the Dawn. ”
"Quick, let me see."
"Now don't you ask who those bastards are?"
Claire glared at him, "You don't want the old lady to go back there now, do you?" ”
“…… I'm scared of you,"
Menol said that she couldn't stand it, and with her in her hometown, it was a mess every day.
With this in mind, he waved his hand lightly, summoning a mirror, which swirled with the fluctuations above, slowly emerging a five-masted galleon and a broken and sinking steamship, as well as ......
"Wayne, huh? What is that? ”
Claire couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that Wayne was safe and sound, and that she had killed so many clerics of Dawn.
"Do you need to ask? That is, of course, the gift of the dawn, and probably the patron of the power of the dawn. ”
Menor's tone was relaxed, not caring at all what kind of power Dawn had, "I have to say, this time you have found an amazing member of the Eternal Society. ”
"I'm even considering whether to propose him as a deacon at a later meeting."
"Deacon?" Claire frowned slightly, and said unhappily, "Menor, you did it on purpose, right?" I'm not a deacon yet, and if you let him hold it, don't you want him to crush me? ”
"What? Wouldn't you like to let you be his deputy? Menol had a wicked smile on his face, "Or should I find someone else to help him?" ”
"The others......" Claire's brows returned to level, her face showed a charming expression again, she glared at him and asked, "I don't know who the elder thinks is the most suitable~"
Menor: "......"
Who is suitable?
Whoever it is, he won't say it!
"I'm just kidding, ahem, let's see how he deals with the patron first."
"Humph!" Claire gave him a blank look, forgiving him for not daring to name him, or she would have to find the man and turn him into a puppet.
Then, her eyes also looked in the mirror, looking at Wayne in the picture.
I deliberately didn't tell him about the stand-in necklace before, and I don't know if he will be angry......
Well, it's a big deal to let him punish himself.
Spanking?
It should be a nice punishment!
……
……
At this time, outside the theater, Kincan Frolov was on board.
Huberto's body was rickety, his gorgeous and delicate armor was covered with sticky pus and crimson flesh, and the golden light that represented the divine dawn was also the same as the half-gold, half-black sword in his hand, half of the light was stained with deep dark lines, eroding his body little by little.
Depraved......
The thought of this word made Huberto's face difficult to hide bitterness.
He was the Grand Knight of the Church of the Dawn, but he was seduced into depravity, betrayed the Dawn, and lost his long-standing faith.
If he can't get Dawn's forgiveness, then he'......
Heresy, you are blaspheming the dawn—
Thinking of this, Huberto held the hilt of his sword in both hands and raised it high, his face was resolute and solemn, even if I die, I will never let you succeed!
"Dawn of my lord, your devout believer Huberto Watson, pray for the blessing of greatness like you......"
In the next second, he reversed the golden greatsword and pressed it down.
Yikes!
There was a dull grinding sound, and the great sword had pierced deep into his chest, blood spurting out.
Self-harm, sacrifice?
Wayne was stunned, such a change was no longer expected!
"Judge......
Pavra watched his movements in a daze, how could this be?
She looked at Huberto, who wanted to use her faith to summon the dawn's favor, and then at the stumps and severed arms scattered behind him, the sky covered with blood mist and flesh, and a look of dazed thought flashed across her face.
Everyone, they're all dead......
"Dawn!"
At this moment, Huberto roared again, and the black and gold greatsword on his chest was stained red with his blood, but he was unaware, staring at the sky, looking at the pillar of light that extended from his body to the sky.
"Sacrifice!"
Wayne frowned slightly, this time he didn't choose to wait as before, reached out to summon a sniper rifle, and fired several shots straight at the Grand Knight of Judgment.
He must be stopped!
[You use a sniper rifle to hit Huberto Watson, triggering the Burst Rune, triggering the Death trait - Aging, that is, the death progress is 31344/40000.] Comments: He has surrendered his body, soul, origin, and all his faith. Special Rewards: +20 Survival Points, +3 Marksmanship, +1 Toughness Level, +1 Spirit Level. 】
There are less than 10,000 left of the 40,000 progress, which is not much.
Activate the specialty - Rapid Fire!
Wayne alternated his hands and pulled the trigger as he reloaded the bullets, smashing them at Huberto.
Under the effect of the rapid rune, the bullets nailed to the body of the Grand Knight of Judgment, piercing through the heavy armor, triggering the bursting rune, blasting the flesh and blood on his body, and also attaching a layer of death characteristics.
In just one second, he fired twenty bullets, an improvement of more than six hundred, but he was still some way from triggering the Instant Death trait.
"Ghosts!"
Without his command, the ghost immediately cast a shadow winding spell.
This is the only spell with the Death trait, allowing him to trigger the Instant Trait faster and kill the Grand Knight of Judgment in front of him.
"Deep, Rocco, Door!"
The circle emerged, and countless twisted arms reached out from the black vortex and grabbed at the Grand Knight of Judgment. But the pillar of light outside his body was like the nemesis of these undead creatures, and the moment his arm touched it, it instantly retracted like an electric shock, leaving only a terrible wail, as if he had been hit hard.
[Your Shadow Coil (Reaper) level is too low to deal damage to Huberto Watson and cannot trigger the Death trait.] 】
Wayne frowned slightly, the level of the spell is too low?
If you can't go on like this, since you can't kill the person who is a sacrifice, then kill ......
Well?
Who's going to kill?
Wayne shot for a moment, but he was stunned, what happened?
There were only two people on the deck, one was the Grand Knight of Adjudication, and the other was that-
Wayne glanced sharply at the female priestess who was kneeling on the deck not far away, her face stained with tears on her face, and carefully looked at her face and body, not missing an inch.
Long golden hair, golden robes, exquisite face, proud figure.
Kill ...... She, not her......
When such an idea came to him, the people he wanted to kill in his mind came to Carly, Tina, and Lacey one by one.
Wrong!
Wayne realized that something was wrong, he couldn't even have any bad thoughts about the woman in front of him?!
Killing, dying, and even the idea of pulling down that golden robe and blaspheming can't go on properly!
"What's going on?"
[You step into the Fountain of Dawn Faith, because your Source exceeds 1000, you are exempt from Source erosion and pollution. Comment: The good authority of the dawn ah that's, don't think about it, don't look at it, disgusting authority...... Special Rewards: Survival Points +40, Origin +1, Spirit Level +4, Tenacity Level +4. 】
Good authority?
The authority that can't make people think evil about it?!
Wayne sensed the information in his mind, and suddenly thought to himself, no wonder he had chosen to turn around and kill in other directions when he had killed those priests and approached the woman.
that
Wouldn't we just be able to watch the sacrifice succeed and be blessed at dawn?
"You-"
Rumble!
A low roar rang out from the depths of the sky.
Wake up in an instant, and he hurriedly continued to shoot at Huberto.
Now is not the time to doubt, since you can't kill the woman who has the protection of good authority, then you can only solve the judgment of the Great Knight and destroy the sacrificial ceremony!
At this moment, Hupoto's body began to sway, as if it was under the control of some force.
Well?
[You missed Huberto Watson with a sniper rifle.] Evaluation: It's late...... Special Rewards: +10 Survival Points, +1 Marksmanship. 】
Missed?
Sensing this, Wayne flickered away in an instant.
Damn, is it still too late?
In the next second, the pillar of light swelled violently several times and spread around at an extremely fast speed, until it submerged Pavla, who was kneeling on the deck, and then it stopped expanding.
Then, a sacred whisper resounded all around, like a god lamenting the suffering of the world, lingering over the sea.
This is!?
Wayne's face changed slightly, and the voice seemed to be whispered in his ear, but he couldn't hear what he or she was saying.
Dawn?
"Praise the Dawn ......"
With that voice, the bitterness on Huberto's face vanished.
Dawn answered his plea and showed that he had been forgiven for his fall, and he succeeded!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face as he looked at the blonde priestess who was also shrouded in a pillar of light, "Pavra, it's up to you in the future." ”
"Lord Judge, why are you doing this, obviously ......" Pavra looked sad, she still couldn't accept the result.
"Embracing the dawn is something I should have done a long time ago," Huberto smiled and wanted to reach out to help Pavra, but found that his body was out of control, so he sighed softly, "You are the patron of good authority, and you should spread the greatness of dawn in this world." ”
"I," Pavra staggered to her feet, her gaze looking at the clergy who had died tragically at the hands of the aberrations, "am I okay?" ”
"Of course, there is no authority more suitable than you!"
Pavra was silent for a few seconds, "I see. ”
She is the alternate saint of the dawn, the patron of good authority.
Her very existence is to spread His splendor and greatness on behalf of the Dawn!
Huberto smiled again, "Your Majesty, don't be sad, I will be in the Hall of Dawn, looking forward to your arrival...... Bye. ”
Pavra nodded slightly, "Goodbye, Lord Judge!" ”
As soon as the words fell, she saw Huberto slowly close his eyes with a smile on his face, and an even stronger divine aura emanated from him, merging into the surrounding pillars of light.
Not only that, but the body of the Grand Knight of Judgment also slowly rose, flying upwards along the pillar of light, as if summoned by an unknown being, until he completely disappeared into the vortex above the clouds.
Immediately after, a dark blue light descended from the depths of the sky and landed on the top of Pavra's head, and the two rays of gold and blue light slowly blended and converged on her body.
A deep, mysterious aura emanated from her, forming a blue-gold ball of light around her.
Wayne looked at the familiar scene, remembering that Carly was the same when she was favored by Dawn......
Before he could recall the scene, he saw the woman in the ball of light change.
The long blonde hair turned into an aqua blue swirled down, and her face changed slightly, the soft lines became softer and more three-dimensional, and the golden robe on her body disappeared, revealing a pair of upside-down hanging bells.
Then, the orb of light slowly rose, as if to chase the Grand Knight of Judgment.
"Yes, that's it, unclothed ......"
It's just that this time Wayne saw the figure in the ball of light again, and he couldn't afford any blasphemous thoughts in his heart. The thought of killing her for eternity couldn't even occupy a hundredth of his mind.
It's a very weird feeling, obviously one second you want to kill her, and the next second such a thought is deflected or inexplicably disappears......
Good authority, what a terrifying power!
Wayne looked at the corpse of the cleric on the ship, thought for a few seconds, and decided to resurrect Claire first.
Well?
At this moment, the feedback of a five-masted galleon appeared in Wayne's spiritual perception.
Someone's coming?
He turned to look, his eyes widening suddenly, was that- Marco?!
