It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

Like playful toddlers, they have brutal fun, setting fire to wherever they go.A pale and icy wall of fire appeared out of thin air, intercepting the tiny flying dots of light.

After leaving the dreamland, Shadow took the initiative again!

"This kind of thing... Although I have never seen it, I know what they are."

The voice of the shadow sounded in Ayla's consciousness, with an unprecedented solemnity.

Ella felt indescribably uneasy, and talked to the shadow in consciousness,

"You know these points of light? What are they?"

The shadow was silent for a long time, and Ayla almost thought she had fallen asleep in the eyes of Hermes again.

Shadow spoke again, with some doubts in her voice, she didn't understand why she knew this knowledge,

"They are spirits of fire—from a certain point of view, their essence seems to be very similar to mine."

Ella observed the small light spots wrapped in pale flames. They did not annihilate into the original magic power or disappear, but gradually assimilated with the former.

It seems that these two kinds of extreme cold and blazing heat represent completely opposite forces and have the same root.

What is the nature of shadow?

Ella first thought of Sibyl the Prophet. The shadow is the consciousness born in the alchemy props. She may mean that these light spots, like her, are also life born in magic or alchemy.

But if it's just that, it's impossible for the shadow to appear so dignified.

So Ella thought of another possibility, and fear gradually took hold of her heart.

That is the fundamental reason for the shadow to gain power and produce mutations,

Aphem,

In other words - evil god.

Chapter 49 The Chanting Dead

The three executors did not stop and moved towards the temple in the center of the town.

Not long ago, this place was a remote town on a peaceful isolated island, but now, this tranquility has long since turned into depression and terror.

Ella saw Jack's bar, the place originally called "Dutch Fortress" had become ruins, but fortunately this time Jack had already evacuated the employees in advance.

She prayed those people hadn't been caught up in that crazy night.

Along the way, there were quite a few priests in charge of guarding. Most of them were tall and strong men. Other than that, there were militiamen and townspeople who were in charge of patrolling.

In the face of multiple fanatics, Hyde can no longer manipulate their actions through the power of the Ring of Pride, but the blind militia and townspeople have become better targets for control.

Centering on the course of action of the three, a large number of militiamen began to defect.

The marionettes dragged one fanatic after another into the crowd, just as they had done the night before.

Facing such a large number, Hyde did not completely control their spirits, which was impossible.On the contrary, he just made a simple hint in the consciousness of those people.The clergy were replaced with indentured workers and foreigners.

There is no such thing as rightness, morality, or faith. Instigated by pure hostility and trivial personal will, the townspeople turn into ugly swarms.

Even a strong-willed fanatic, after a struggle, was swallowed up by the swarm of insects,

After removing the last obstacle, the three came to the huge temple in the center of the town.This is a huge stone building that is very different from most of the buildings on the island.

Outside the temple, Ella and the others could hear the sound of chanting scriptures inside.

Passing through the heavy iron gate, there are a large number of priests in front of you.

The figures of those people were slender and graceful, and the patterns on the headscarves and robes were more complicated, but there were large and small holes in the clothing that were burnt from the inside out.

Without exception, they are all young women.

The priests prostrated themselves facing the temple, worshiping devoutly.

They didn't care about the three people who appeared, they just kept repeating strange scriptures that made people feel chills all over their bodies.

Ella noticed that the bodies of these people did not move at all, which was definitely unnatural.

Generally speaking, the human body will follow the heartbeat, breathing, and blood flow without knowing it, and make subtle adjustments. This is an uncontrollable normal state of life, and it is also an instinct.

But they are different. These clergymen maintain a fixed posture, almost like beautifully carved wax figures.

Only dead bodies stop all change.

Ella activated her spiritual vision, and there were two striking colors in the bodies of these young women.

The first is the orange-red color that symbolizes flames, which are countless tiny light spots, all of them, like Saraf, may spontaneously combust at any time.

The other color is dark gray representing death. They have already lost their lives, but they are just lifelike corpses.

But the sound of chanting did not stop, and the fingernails of the female priests were broken on the limestone floor, leaving glaring bloodstains.

The living recite sutras to pray, bless the living, and comfort the dead.

What is the dead man praying for when he recites scriptures?

In their eyes, black eyes and white eyes were mixed together, and the corpses of the priests faced the ground in front of them with dull expressions, opening and closing their mouths, repeating strange scriptures all the time.

A nun with the most exquisite costumes has the last words dipped in blood on her body. Unlike others, she looked up to herself at the last moment of her life.

The incomplete text was almost illegible, and with the help of magic, Ayla managed to make out a few broken words:

【I saw...the scarlet sky】

Ella was startled, she raised her head, but only saw the mural on the zenith of the temple, it was a sky map centered on the sun, the colors were mainly gold and blue, and had nothing to do with scarlet.

What kind of scene did this woman see before she was about to die?

Ella controlled the pale fire, carefully wrapped all the corpses, and sealed the fire essence hidden in their bodies, swallowing up the light spots before they broke out of the body.

Passing through the temple hall and the holy symbol, after the hall is a spacious courtyard.

Before entering the courtyard, Hyde once again used another alchemy tool. After pouring most of his magic power, a dangerous creature was outlined in the sunken light and shadow of the mysterious door.

It was a shapeless soft-bodied creature more than ten feet tall, like a coral polyp or a polyp. Only part of its body was made of material that appeared transparent and vague. Although this monster had no wings, it was suspended in mid-air.

Flying polyps, this is a dangerous creature that all three of them know about. Professor Anderson described this dangerous creature in the first-year course.

In a sense, this is more powerful than the Shoggoth Hyde once summoned, except for the electric current of a specific frequency, the flying polyp has almost no weaknesses.But since using the mysterious door again, Ella clearly felt some kind of change in Hyde.

She recalled the side effect of this alchemy item. The mysterious door can randomly summon ordinary creatures or extraordinary dangerous creatures according to the magic power.But with each use, the user's luck gets worse.

After the Hydra appeared, the light around Hyde seemed to suddenly dim.That space seems to be separated from the world and become something independent.

Ella suddenly reached out and grabbed Hyde by the back of the collar, dragging him back.

"Williams, what are you doing-"

boom!

The heavy crystal chandelier fell and shattered where Hyde was. A flying fragment left a bright red mark on his face!

"Don't use that necklace again until you return to Glamis Castle."

Hyde coughed violently a few times, and nodded with lingering fear.

-

Go through the wooden door behind the holy emblem and enter the courtyard.

Priest Selvi Shastro, wearing a flame crown and a golden-red shawl, sat on a wooden chair in the middle of the courtyard.

"You really came."

There was no abnormality in her expression, as if she had expected this scene, she frowned slightly only when she saw the translucent monster suspended in mid-air.

"As the messenger of God said, you are indeed demons and filth. No wonder you survived the fire."

"No...Only you are the devil on this island."

The priest ignored the rebuttal and spoke the prophecy again.

"The blood of demons hides among the strangers, consecrating filth to the fire... A sacred womb will bear the true Son of God."

Selvi Shastro became flushed,

"And I will be the mother of the Son of God on earth."

Chapter 50 The Sad Victim

"God..."

Ella repeated the word quietly.

This means that behind Shastro's officiant, there is another person called the envoy.She thought of the prophetic image in "Book of the Future", a figure wearing a silk bowler hat, a face covered by a white smiley mask, and a black tuxedo was outlined in her consciousness.

It was the maker of the tragedy in London five years ago, the terrible wizard who made a lot of victims.In the prophecy, he would stand in the midst of a hell of corpses and flames, and pick up a bloody umbilical cord.

"The venerable oracle probably forgot to tell you one thing. He is also a wizard himself, and he was the founder of a certain cult in England... Moreover, you don't understand what kind of existence God is, At least, I don't think He would ever need a mother."

Ella said sarcastically.

She understood that the chief priest, Selvi Shastro, who had no magical qualities at all, was just a sad statue made by that person that could be discarded at any time.

"A lie!"

Selvi grabbed the armrest of the wooden chair and opened his mouth to scold, but what gushed out of his throat was hot sparks!Countless small irregularly moving light spots spewed out from the depths of her throat!

Her long hair also decomposed, scattered in mid-air, and turned into more flame essences.

The garden under Shastro's feet began to crack, and the cracks quickly spread to the entire courtyard!

Wherever the light spot went, dazzling fires burned, and the white jasmine petals became scorched black and curled, and the garden turned into a sea of ​​flames!

Ayla urged the Eye of Hermes and her own magic power with all her strength, allowing the pale flames to devour the flying spots of light.

Every time Ling swings the dagger, large spots of light will be annihilated in the tracks left by the blade. At the same time, she is repeatedly chanting the incantation to generate clear water, although this cannot make the flames created by the Flame Essence directly Extinguished, it can limit their power to a certain extent!

Hyde had already consumed most of his magic power. In a short period of time, all his attempts to restore his magic power failed. The magic potion was smashed, and cracks appeared on the glass tube, making him unable to enter meditation.Because of the side effect of the mysterious door pendant, his luck has been obviously abnormal!
