Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 165 Snow White's Evil Stepmother

North Quarter, St. Samuel's Church.

Audrey stood by the window, looking worriedly into the distance.

She saw the fog in the sky gradually thicken, the light yellow was stained with iron black, and it was slowly rendering towards her direction.

"Hopefully in time."

Audrey pursed her lips lightly, she didn't know what the mist represented, but she also knew that it was definitely not a good thing.

Suddenly, she found that the branches outside the window began to shake, and the glass trembled slightly.

"The wind is coming!"

Audrey felt joy inexplicably.

A terrifying storm visible to the naked eye suddenly emerged from the Holy Wind Cathedral in the Jowood area, and then blew an unimaginable hurricane towards the east.

Woo!
The deposited mist was blown away, and the rich yellow and iron black quickly faded away.

Woo!
Dry branches fell to the ground, dust and soil rose into the air, and drifted away with the mist.

Woo!
Many pedestrians had their hats off their heads and their bodies were shaking so much that they had to hold on to trees or walls.

The sailors in the dock area seem to have returned to the port city and are witnessing the onslaught of a typhoon.The smoke in the East District and the factory area has faded, and the mild discomfort of healthy people has been alleviated.

Boom boom boom!

Lightning leaps and thunder explodes.

They subsided quickly, and the splashing rain began to wash the earth, washing away the diseases and plagues brought by the Desperate Witch.

"call!"

Seeing this scene, Audrey couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, her mood became a little better, and she asked hesitantly, "Ember, that Ms. Bernadette, is she a descendant of Emperor Roselle?"

Gustav's surname is really hard not to make people think about it.But what Audrey is most concerned about is whether the lady who asked her to pray can catch the murderer, catch those witches who are planning to let the 'primordial witch' come.

"Ah."

Ember looked at the dark clouds in the sky, nodded slightly, "She is Roselle's youngest daughter, an angel."

"Angel?"

Audrey's eyes moved slightly, a little surprised and a little surprised.

If so, there is certainly no problem.

After all, it was an angel!
-
"Queen of Mysteries?"

Ms. Despair looked at the lady with long chestnut hair and straight hair who blocked her way. Her eyebrows were slightly frowned but raised again after a while. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing a charming smile. She said comfortably, "You just happened to pass by here too?"

"Passing by?"

Bernadette's sapphire-like eyes stared at her calmly, and said softly, "No, I'm here to find you."

"That's it~"

The Desperate Lady chuckled lightly and smiled at Yan Yanjian, a sharp and crystal ice spear immediately condensed out of her palm, and threw it at Bernadette.Taking advantage of this opportunity, her figure also quickly fled towards the alley behind!
She thinks that her whereabouts are secretive, and she took care of it beforehand, so she is not worried that she will be blocked by Backlund's demigods in a short period of time, but she did not expect that she will be blocked by Bernadette who is an outsider !
She couldn't understand why the other party would find her whereabouts secretly so quickly, and she didn't know why the other party wanted to meddle in other people's business.But as a desperate witch of Sequence 4, who grew up from an assassin step by step, she understands that she can't be distracted at critical moments, can't talk nonsense, and it's not too late to think about all problems afterwards.

Bernadette, as one of the four kings of pirates, the Queen of Mysteries, is also a descendant of Roselle Gustav, and is considered a 'well-known' figure in all the secret organizations.In addition, the "task" carried out by Ms. Despair is also related to it, so I have a certain understanding of its ability.

The other party was a Sequence 3 of the Path of the Mystery Peer. Although he was one sequence higher than himself, he was not very good at fighting.Because the Sequence 3 of the Mystic Path is a master of prophecy.With only the 'mysterious reappearance' she has, it is impossible to keep herself.

But Bernadette's father was the former Emperor Roselle after all, and Madam Despair did not know about his inheritance and background.What's more, this is Backlund, once too much time is wasted, it will be even more difficult for her to escape when the demigods of the three major churches arrive.

Therefore, she chose to attack directly and took the opportunity to escape!
"Crack!"

Where the ice spear passed, hoarfrost condensed and sealed the world with cold.

The pea vines hanging down from the sky quickly condensed and frozen, turning into emerald green ice cones!And all of this is still spreading, layers of crystals continue to extend to Bernadette, freezing everything around.

She had to break through the obstacles with great difficulty in order to have the strength to catch up.And at that time, she must have already left the street and mixed into the crowd!
Ms. Despair was thinking in a good mood, and a bright and beautiful sweet smile was drawn on the corner of her mouth.

However, in the next second, her smile completely froze on her face.

Because at some point, Bernadette, who was supposed to be frozen by layers of crystals, appeared in front of her again, blocking her way!

The desperate female lady's eyes were fixed, black flames shot up all over her body, spreading diseases, and planned to ignite everything around her, creating a large-scale fire.

But the next moment, she heard the awkward and mysterious spell spit out from the mouth of the mysterious queen:

"The cage!"

In an instant, the bright stars lingering around the mysterious queen flew away one after another, turning into a big net that seemed to make people breathless, and rushed towards the desperate lady.The starlight condensed in an instant, creating a huge transparent amber that completely enveloped it like an exquisite specimen.

At that moment, a slight change finally appeared on Ms. Despair's face. There was a trace of astonishment and fear on her beautiful face, and she finally realized what kind of existence she was fighting against.

It was no longer her, but He, an angel!
Bernadette's gaze remained calm, she slowly withdrew her gaze from Lady Despair, and cast it to the distant sky.

"The wind is coming."

she whispered.

In the next moment, pea vines all over the sky appeared out of thin air, and they were blown to pieces by the wind and collided with each other. They quickly hung down from the sky, entangled layers of the desperate lady who was sealed in amber as a specimen, and suddenly retracted during a short stay. Back to the sky, disappearing from everyone's sight.

And disappearing from the sight of others, there is also a lady wearing a girlish yellow cake skirt and a black old-fashioned soft hat.

The wind blew away the mist that spread the disease, and the heavy rain washed away the remaining plague on the ground.

But for those who have already fallen in the mist, the Church of the Storm can't do anything at all.

Although a large number of extraordinary people rushed to the east area at the first time, even though the cathedrals in the east area immediately gave a helping hand, but in the east area, in the dock area, in the factory area, those who are old or have hidden diseases seem to be cut down The trees fell one after another in the mist, and the people who came into contact with them at this time were infected with the plague and died quickly. The adults and children who were still in good health also felt slightly unwell.

In their eyes, the mist mixed with light yellow and iron black is like the descending 'Grim Reaper'.

And for those who are taken by death, they can do nothing.

Those who survived looked at the people who fell in the fog on the street, their eyes were full of sadness.

And there are more man-made plague-infected bodies, coughing violently.

"Cough cough!"

"Cough, cough, cough—"

The coughing is getting louder and louder, and it is spreading rapidly like a plague.In a short while, the entire street and the entire area were filled with coughing sounds one after another.

The expressions of the first batch of Extraordinary people who came to the rescue changed drastically, and they immediately realized that something was wrong, but when they just wanted to take measures.

In the next second, it was discovered that these coughing people were those who had already collapsed in the smog.

They were already believed to have died in the plague, but at this moment they coughed violently, which made people worry that they would be coughed up by their lungs.

"Cough cough cough~"

The old Kohler coughed in pain, only feeling that something in his throat was spit out like a bullet.He struggled to get up from the ground, and he didn't forget to pick up the paper bag containing the retreat, which he had prepared for the New Year, so he couldn't just throw it away.

"I'm not dead?"

Old Kohler thought incredulously, the cough just now almost killed him, and it felt like his internal organs were coughed out.But after coughing, he felt relaxed for a while, his waist was no longer sore and his legs were no longer painful, but fortunately his heart was still beating.

Old Kohler suddenly changed color, as if remembering something, exclaimed:
"By the way, my cigarette!"

He hurriedly searched on the ground, and finally found the crumpled cigarette that was broken in two with the tobacco exposed.But at the moment when he picked up the cigarette, he saw that there seemed to be another piece of apple on the ground, a piece of black and spoiled apple that had already rotted.

Old Kohler was stunned for a moment, he finally remembered that what he coughed up just now was this piece of apple!

But he remembered that the last time he ate an apple was obviously years ago...
-
"Mom, Mom, how are you feeling?"

Freya, who spat out the apple, got up from the ground and hurriedly helped Liv up.

"I-I'm fine..."

Liv looked at the two pieces of apples on the ground that had been spit out and quickly rotted. She was a little surprised and not sure what happened just now.

They helped each other out of the apartment, and saw that the streets were full of people who had just woken up, and their faces were full of complex emotions of panic and bewilderment. There were rotten apples everywhere on the ground, sticking to each other like sores. on the ground.

But soon, the torrential rain washed these poisonous apples into the sewer piece by piece, and they were no longer seen.

"Daisy!"

Liv looked at the confused daughter beside her, suddenly exclaimed, and hurriedly ran towards the public school.Freya followed behind her, and the two thin women burst out with amazing stamina and speed, and they ran all the way towards the public elementary school on the edge of the East District.

In the distance, they saw a small and thin figure rushing out of the church next to the school, and that was Daisy.

Liv's daughter and Freya's younger sister.

"Daisy!"

"Mom! Freya!"

They ran towards each other, embracing each other tightly on the street and in the rainstorm, with the joy of reunion and the joy of reunion.

Although they don't know what happened, at least they are still alive.
-
Relying on the magical item obtained from Embers, the copper-green mottled cross, Klein was quite lucky to fight back and forth with Mr. A.But even so, he didn't dare to fight for a long time, because the side effects of this cross were too great——

As long as he holds it for more than an hour, his sequence will be lowered by at least one level, and the speed of this regression will become faster and faster, and within three hours he will completely become an ordinary person.When it was really a last resort, he would rather throw away the cross and run for his life.

But fortunately, the battle did not last a full hour after all.

Because just when the two were 'fighting', all the colors in front of his eyes became intense, as if they were splashed with oil paint by the gods.

This feeling disappeared in a flash, and Klein found himself far away from where he was originally, and saw Azik Eggers with bronze complexion and soft features appearing beside him.

"Mr. Azik, are you not injured?" He heaved a sigh of relief uncontrollably, and at the same time threw the Wudark Cross away like a hot potato.

Azik looked at Klein's actions in surprise, and immediately smiled and said:

"Yes, but for the undead, this is not a big problem."
-
In a room in the basement of St. Samuel's Cathedral, the 'Necromancer' Daly Simone held the telegram that had just been sent from the East District, and reported with a dignified expression:
"The smog has brought a large number of diseases and plagues that spread. Even if the Church of the Storm takes action in time, the scope of the impact is still large. The population directly affected is at least 10, and the number of residents affected by the periphery is at least 20!"

"20 people?"

Audrey couldn't bear it and closed her eyes, not daring to think about how many lives were taken by this tragedy.

"Miss Daly."

Ember raised her head and asked slowly, "How many people are there in the church now?"

"There is no one left."

Daly shook her head, "Everyone has been sent out except my team."

Before leaving, Archbishop St. Anthony told him that even the deacons should obey Ember's arrangements and orders.And all the nighthawks in the church have been sent out, and Daly and her team stayed because they were also responsible for guarding the Chanis Gate.

Ember was silent for a long time before asking, "What about the number of victims?"

"Not counted yet."

Daly whispered, "But the estimated direct death toll is at least over [-]."

10 people, ordinary small towns may not have this population size!

"Deacon Daly, a new telegram."

At this moment, the Nighthawk who received the telegram suddenly had a weird expression on his face, and handed a telegram to Daly.

Daly took the telegram, glanced at it solemnly, then froze in place, staring at the big words on it:

"Estimated death toll, 0."

Daly couldn't help asking: "Did you translate correctly?"

"No."

The telegraph operator said categorically, "The telegram was sent twice, and that's the number!"

Audrey couldn't bear to ask, "What's written on it?"

Daly glanced at her, her expression became as weird as that of a telegraph operator, and said:

"The death toll is out, 0."

"0?"

Audrey exclaimed, "How is it possible?"

"Yeah, how is it possible?"

Daly frowned and said, "The telegram said that after the person affected by the plague spit out a piece of poisoned apple, he miraculously recovered and was completely healthy."

"Poisoned apple? Snow White?"

Audrey subconsciously had an association, and was immediately overjoyed, knowing that someone had rescued the people of the Eastern District!
It was the dark blue chief priest who summoned strong winds to disperse the smog, and summoned heavy rain to cleanse the plague, but he obviously did not have extraordinary abilities in this regard.And the archbishops of the other two churches also didn't have it. This was a strange high-sequence Extraordinary shot.

And the name of this high-sequence Extraordinary is already coming out:
Bernadette Gustave!

Audrey raised her head to look at Ember in surprise, but Ember nodded slightly, confirming the girl's guess.

Audrey showed a faint smile on her face, with a little reserved pride:
Although she didn't make the shot directly, even though she was only in charge of praying, at least she had some credit.

Rounding it up, it is equivalent to her saving Backlund!
This is far more proud of Audrey than the 'Tarot Society' preventing the evil gods from descending and the 'Evernight Church' arresting criminals!

What made Audrey most happy was that the death toll was zero.

This means that in this disaster, no one will lose their lives!
