Chapter 18: The Last Minute

Laika's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked in the direction of the southeast of the Colosseum, where Laika could already clearly feel that several powerful forces were rapidly approaching—although they were still far away from LaCales.

Overall, though, it's good news...... So now, it's just a matter of how long you can drag Will here.

Strangely, since the brief conversation with Laika across the Sanctuary of Redemption, Will has been silent and silent, of course, those who entered, the screams before death proved that Will was still alive......

Laika had no doubt about Will's murderous intentions, and he knew very well how much damage he had done to the Black Death in the province of Ivey in the north of the empire.

If Will comes out, then ......

Laika shuddered at the thought and shook her head, pushing that terrible thought out of her mind - how could that be?

Time, another five minutes passed.

During these five minutes, Laika looked at the sky to the southeast from time to time, expecting that several legendary powerhouses from the Holy See would appear there. When the time comes, with their help, Will will die.

Laika also thought about the rest of the matter, and the first thing she did after killing Will was to skin him off...... Just as Warren had done before, Laika was going to offer Will's skin to His Majesty the Pope.

Laika thought as he thought this, and a smile of relief and anticipation even appeared on his lips - he imagined how surprised he would be under the papal crown, surprised at the gifts he had brought him.

When the time comes, His Majesty the Pope will definitely not hesitate to reward himself, right?

......

No one noticed that after a few hours, Hattori Chiyo, whose soul was lodged in the body of this Brutum, touched it little by little towards the highest place.

Although now the Colosseum is empty because of what happened before. But Hattori Chiyo has been staying in the dead corner of the highest position, and then touching it little by little, in order not to arouse the alertness of Laika, a legendary powerhouse, Hattori Chiyo has only now slowly touched the bottom of the highest position - the only passage that can reach the highest position is the steep staircase on the side of the highest position. In other words, as long as she goes up this ladder, then Chiyo Hattori can do what she wants......

Legendary powerhouses are not invincible, as long as they do not become gods, as long as they do not use battle qi or shield magic, their bodies are only similar to ordinary people who have been trained for a long time.

Therefore, what Hattori Chiyo has to do at this moment is to take advantage of Laika's carelessness to stab his weapon deep into his chest, in order to save Will and avenge those compatriots who died in this world!

Laika didn't realize the arrival of Hattori Chiyo, because all his energy at the moment was focused on the Sanctuary of Redemption above the center of the Colosseum...... This also means that his vigilance is far less than that of those who have advanced from warriors to strong men. Not to mention, he didn't release the magic that increased perception...... And the knights who had followed Corrando to Lacales to search for mid-level and above warriors were simply ignored by Hattori Chiyo because she was only a little stronger than ordinary people.

And Hattori Chiyo's caution also allowed her to easily avoid the search of those knights between the high platforms of the Colosseum...... She's been waiting...... Waiting for a chance!

......

Minute by minute. Just as the sixth minute had just begun, Laika's face suddenly changed!

Because, on the surface of the Redemption Sanctuary, a blood-colored wave suddenly set off! As the waves lifted, the light of the Redemption Sanctuary quickly dimmed, and Laika clearly felt that the energy contained in the Sanctuary was passing rapidly!

"Will, what did you do?!" Laika said in shock, but without the slightest sluggishness in his hand, he took out a scepter from his spatial ring, which looked more expensive and powerful than before, and aimed it at the Salvation Sanctuary!

The scepter disappeared into Laika's hand in an instant after Laika said this!

By the time it reappeared, it had already reached the belige of the Sanctuary of Salvation!

Then, like the scepter it had used before, it shattered into countless pieces in the blink of an eye.

It's just that after this scepter shattered, there were no magical barriers and traps like before, but ...... From the moment the scepter cracked, endless light poured out!

This light was like a life, and the moment it appeared, it flew towards the Sanctuary of Salvation.

The Sanctuary of Salvation quickly absorbed the light and became stable again.

However, because it has not been replenished by enough souls, its light is still very dim.

"What did I do?" Will......'s voice came from the Sanctuary of Redemption without a care, and he continued disdainfully, "Laika...... Have you forgotten that our people are called the Black Dead by your false gods! though I don't know why, your gods are so hostile to us...... However, your Pope Basseny, in order to prove that the Holy Race is a race abandoned by God, openly conducted a cruel experiment......"

"The experiment...... Wait, you're talking about ......" Laika muttered to himself, and suddenly, as if he remembered something, his face suddenly turned ugly!

"That's right, that's the experiment!" Will was still so calm, but what he said next was always calm...... Will spoke slowly, "You're really forgetful...... If I haven't forgotten, you were invited by the cardinal to watch that experiment, which was to bleed a Holy Clan, let his blood flow into the holy water, and observe how the Holy Clan's blood reacted to the holy water...... Isn't it?"

Laika remembered the experiment, of course, when he was still an inconspicuous priest...... He had seen the blood of the Black Death apostle mixed with holy water, which was full of light and divine aura, and suddenly ...... A violent reaction occurred, and the holy water, mixed with the blood of the Black Death, quickly bubbled up like boiling water and had an unpleasant pungent smell.

According to His Holiness Pope Basseny, this is holy water, the original sin that cleanses the blood of the Black Death!

But Laika, it's too late to think about it now!

Laika guessed that Will must have created a wound on his body just now, allowing his own blood to flow in the Sanctuary of Redemption, which directly led to the Sanctuary of Redemption...... Almost collapsed!

That's right, the light emitted by the Sanctuary of Salvation is getting fainter and fainter!

Laika even saw through the places that were so weak that they were almost transparent, the stumps burned by the Holy Flames all over the place, the blood that flowed down Will's arm and continued to erode the Sanctuary, and ...... Will sneered as he looked at himself!

Laika took a few steps back in horror, almost falling to the ground, and then, Laika hurriedly turned his head, and with a look that had become sinister with fear, he swept towards the rest of the group, and he pointed at Corandor and several others with a trembling hand, and said intermittently and hurriedly, "He...... He's coming out! I'm ...... Kirando, you go in! and, you, you...... You, all in!"

This time, however, Laika was silent, and both the three bishops, Flavies, who remained in the field, and Stuart, the king of Lacales, all looked at Laika with wary faces.

Obviously, these big people, who are often in high positions, don't want to give their lives for nothing like the guys before them......

At this time, Korando stood up, he sighed lightly, looked at Laika with a heavy face and said, "My lord, even if all the people present here are combined, there are only nine people, of course, including you, my lord...... I have no intention of offending you...... After the Sanctuary is expanded, if it wants to continue to maintain it before the energy is exhausted, it must invest ten mid-level fighters at once. But right now, there really aren't enough of them...... This sacred realm is not simply based on strength, its continuation also requires the number of souls...... So, my lord, get ready for battle...... If we're lucky, we'll be able to hold him back...... I think those strong men who came to our aid should be coming soon!"

Korando's suggestion is the most sensible.

Among all the people present, Laika is a legendary powerhouse, Stuart, the king of Lacales, is also a legendary powerhouse, and the three bishops, including Corando, and Flavis, who came all the way from Rome, all have the strength of the squire of the god of war, they are only one step away from the strong, and they are all warriors!

Although the strength of the Black Death has never been viewed from the perspective of ordinary people, it ...... Be careful and hold him down, it shouldn't be a problem!

However, Laika didn't listen to anything now, and his eyes were red and he stared at Korando fiercely, wanting to devour him......

Then, Laika slowly glanced at the faces of the crowd, apparently ...... None of them were going to follow their orders - of course Laika knew a trace of Krando, but in his opinion, even if there were less than ten people, after entering the Sanctuary, their strength would still be able to hold on to Will for a while longer - as long as Will didn't kill them all, then there was still hope for everything.

Of course, after entering childbearing, they are also doomed to death!

No one reminded Laika about his selfish ...... Now Laika just wants to be alive by herself!

Suddenly, his eyes stopped!

"I, why did I forget you?" Laika whispered to herself, then sneered, and before everyone could react, she rushed to Tina's side, lifted her up, and threw her into the sanctuary!
