Chapter 165 From the Underground
Will Sharon know the name Renette Tinicol?
That's obvious, she definitely knows that.
When Shael tells Sharon that her angel teacher is still alive, Sharon instantly becomes a Sequence 5 with the support of a crippled angel, perhaps able to ascend to demigod status a little earlier.
Now that Sharon's energy is tied up, the "vengeful spirit" can go to Silver City without worry.
The extraordinary ability of the Sequence 4 Puppet of the Alien Path is very interesting; it can manipulate all inanimate objects within a certain range, including magical objects that are not yet under its control and have no spirit.
Xia Er first enhanced the body of this "living creature" to the level of a demigod, and then directly used the puppet's extraordinary abilities to manipulate the body, which should feel quite smooth.
Now we're just waiting for Little Sun to find out the exact locations of some wild extraordinary materials before we can consider setting off.
But before that, there are still some minor issues to resolve.
When he returned to Backlund after parting ways with Sharon, he sensed a familiar yet oppressive atmosphere.
"Do you really want to cause trouble here?"
The East District gang leader looked helplessly at a spot on the edge of the East District, near the suburbs.
When it comes to causing trouble, the Aurora Club never disappoints.
They're so proactive; anyone who didn't know better would think the true Creator was in a hurry to leave the land abandoned by God.
"That's impossible."
Without giving it much thought, Xia Er vanished instantly; encountering him would only lead to disaster.
Hey...wait a minute...
The vanished vengeful spirit has reappeared. If the vengeful spirit were to do this, it would be a waste of its time. But if the hermits of the Church of the Night were to do it, it would be a meritorious deed, and it would also pave the way for their next promotion.
And so...
A church clergy member who was on paid leave suddenly had the idea of coming to the East District to inspect the factory.
Xia Er thought it wasn't hard to explain; wasn't it normal for the "Listener" to sense some kind of danger lurking in the East District?
He made his routine visit to the fledgling mask factory, then attended some noble gatherings, participated in some hunting and horse racing activities in the countryside, "discovered" something unusual, and immediately went back to report it to the church.
St. Samuel Cathedral.
I want to report this!
Xia Er told Daly directly about the matter.
Daly frowned, feeling somewhat overwhelmed, and simply handed the matter over to "Goddess Sword" Kreste Cecima.
This "Goddess's Sword" was no slouch either. He brought his two teammates, called on Shael, and saw that Sost's Red Gloves squad was free, so he called them up as well. After all, that area was on the edge of the Storm Church's jurisdiction, so it would be better to go there and finish the job quickly.
Red-gloved rookie Leonard caught up with an "old acquaintance," Xia Er, and asked:
"Isn't that the territory of the Church of Storms?"
The poet, who was urged by the old man who accompanied him to take the "Red Gloves" exam and even passed it, was still very innocent at this time.
"The whistleblower is a clergyman from the Church of the Night, and it's already close to the outskirts of the city."
"Can this performance result be given to someone else?"
Xia Er was somewhat exasperated; how could someone push away work like that?
Is this year's year-end bonus too hot to handle?
"Then why were only the two of us sent?"
Leonard was speechless. Soster's exact words were, "If it doesn't work, report it to the Church of Storms."
"We have to wait until tonight."
"With the increased strength at night, we'll wipe them out and leave, giving the Storm Church no time to react."
"If this 'boiler' is going to explode during the day, then I'll warn you, and you can report it to the Storm Church. 'Goddess's Sword' is acting heroically; there's no conflict between the two."
After disguising themselves, Xia Er and Leonard gathered specific intelligence.
After a quick investigation, Xia'er had a guess: it was the same old story – despair was the breeding ground for evil gods.
The only uncertainty is whether the reproduction in that abandoned factory is bisexual or mitosis.
As evening approached, the night gradually fell.
Two of Cecima's henchmen, the "Sword of the Goddess," took out a mirror-like sealing artifact and shone it on the outside world, isolating the supernatural from reality.
He made a gesture, indicating that he should follow him and charge in.
These "red gloves," who mostly operate at night, stormed into the "factory."
Chael glanced back in the direction of St. Samuel's Cathedral, then confidently disappeared into the shadows.
At such close range, and with Archbishop Anthony being a saint, if their combined squad couldn't defeat the enemy, they could simply call upon his name for help. Archbishop Anthony would then travel through the spirit realm and suppress all dissent, making it impossible for any problems to arise.
As Shael emerged from the shadows, he saw a Rose Bishop who had been sent flying by the "Goddess's Sword" fall to the ground. His body turned into a cloak of blood and flesh, seemingly intending to directly cover Shael, absorb his flesh and characteristics, and return to his peak.
Aerial state?
Then you're gone.
Chael touched the "Eye of the Wind" at his waist. High-intensity wind pressure swept upwards, like a washing machine, trying to tear the injured Rose Bishop to shreds. A certain red-gloved figure thoughtfully used the power of "Nightmare" to restrain him for a moment.
Xia Er praised the poet for his good judgment, then increased his output and used Wind Blade to dismantle the Sequence 6 Rose Bishop, waiting for the extraordinary trait to be extracted later.
"Goddess's Sword" Cecima didn't waste any time with these Aurora Society members. His smooth, slicing movements came to an abrupt halt when he encountered the alluring beauty, Mr. A. As the face of the Aurora Society's twenty-two divine messengers, Mr. A easily blocked "Cecima's" attack.
Meanwhile, more Rose Bishops and Hermits emerged from the shadows, seemingly in a period of religious fanaticism, as even two professional Red Gloves squads failed to break through the Aurora Society's formation.
"Are you kidding me?"
So many people came to the Aurora Festival, even Mr. A. How could he, the "listener," have previously thought there wasn't much danger? Did his hearing decline after he changed his path to become a notary?
Xia Er decided to try activating 'Listen' on his own initiative. He listened and then acted. He merged into the shadows, closed his eyes, and the world seemed to stand still. There were many noisy sounds in the environment. Putting aside the parts generated by the battle between 'Red Gloves' and 'Aurora Society', his mind gradually heard some noises.
These sounds were attached to the members of the "Aurora Society." Xia Er listened carefully and heard a heavy heartbeat with a strange rhythm. In a flash, he saw an underground palace filled with withered, stiff humanoid creatures.
Terrifying resentment and despair that even death cannot dispel continue to reach a certain place along certain cracks.
The heartbeats there grew heavier, as if resonating with his own, until his own heart began to strain under the weight. Shael coughed up blood and stepped out of the shadows.
Leonard saw Xia Er fall out of the shadows and quickly helped him up. He pursed his lips and looked at Lord Cecima, who was fighting with Mr. A. He wanted to say something, but couldn't bring himself to say it.
Xia Er opened her eyes, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and stared intently at the cracks on the ground.
