You call this the god of etiquette?

Chapter 71 Sky
"Your mercy endures forever."

A hymn ends.

Yige and Mary, who were kneeling in front of the red marble statue, raised their heads at the same time.

Mary was about to ask Ige what the "barrier" was.

But suddenly startled.

Because the moment the thought of "barrier" appeared in her mind.

I felt an inexplicable resonance from the depths of my soul.

Although the statue still stands there majestically, it has never moved or changed.

But Mary felt that the statue showed a different posture.

In this way, I am under the benevolent gaze of the gods.

As long as you want, you can let the god statue form an indestructible realm centered on itself through the ringing in the depths of your soul.

At this moment, she had a self-evident understanding of the "barrier" that Priest Yige called.

I secretly sighed in my heart, the wisdom and benevolence of the gods are beyond the reach of human beings.

In such turbulent times.

The appearance of the barrier is no doubt that the god is protecting his lamb with his strong arm.

Mary glanced at Yige and knew that she could not overstep now.

It is up to the priest to open the barrier.

Sure enough, Yige bowed his head again at this time.

Accompanied by his barely audible crooning.

Mary seemed to sense the sacred connection Yig had established with the idol.

Sudden.

A majestic energy burst out from the statue.

Starting from the claws on the statue's helmet, lines of energy that shone with red light spread out, burning like flames.

This energy quickly covered the entire base and spread outward.

With the extension of the energy lines, the original rigid texture on the surface of the base began to become lively.

Under the infusion of energy, those warriors and beasts seemed to be revived, and they continued to fight to the death amidst the blood.

The red light spread all the way to the ritual area of ​​the temple, and then stopped.

Soon, a huge and thick barrier began to form.

The entire barrier spreads out in all directions along the body of the statue, woven by energy.

The surface of the barrier is inlaid with dozens of rectangular outer frames, and inside are delicate and complex patterns.

It's like a picture scroll.

The scenes of wild beasts and warriors fighting each other in the decoration are faintly visible under the flow of energy.

The behemoth leaps at the brave and fearless warrior with its teeth and claws, and the sharp blade of the warrior reflects the cruelty and ruthlessness in the fight.

These visions are not just a reenactment of battles, but more like a sacred declaration.

With unparalleled power and glory, they announce to the outside world the majesty represented by this barrier.

The energy flows continuously, forming ripple-like ripples on the barrier, creating an atmosphere where strength and tranquility coexist.

This barrier with a radius of ten meters separated Ig and Mary in front of the statue from everyone on the aisle outside the barrier.

The civilians who had dried their clothes and waited quietly were shocked by the vision that suddenly appeared in front of them.

Old Derek, who was worried about Mary's accident, subconsciously took a few steps forward, trying to reach out and touch the barrier, but was stopped in time by the double warning of soul and body.

In the end, it still didn't touch it.

The red light on the barrier was flickering and restless, warning him brightly.

Anyone who tries to touch or approach the barrier will be blocked by this powerful and invisible blood energy.

Seeing the old Drake stop in front of the barrier, the other civilians retreated again and again.

They all reacted.

The things in front of them are not something ordinary people like them can challenge.

Staring at this barrier, everyone can feel the coercion contained in it.

Not long after, with a burst of ripples, Yige walked out of the barrier with Marie.

The process of arousing the barrier just now was also the process of him resonating with the idol.

In this way, he naturally knew the ability of the barrier.

First of all, the function of this barrier, just as it intuitively shows, is to protect an area centered on the statue.

Ordinary people would be stunned by the violent surge of energy on the surface of the barrier even if they just approached it.

And stronger people.

Whether it is a direct attack with a sword, or an impact with magic and natural forces, it will be resisted by the barrier.

All but the clergy and followers of the deity of ceremonies are automatically excluded from the barrier ward.

Clerics, on the other hand, can open up "entrances" for specific non-believers by praying to the idol and reactivating the resonance link.

Yige adjusted his collar, and a bloody smell permeated the temple following Yige's slap, making everyone present tremble:
"As you can see, most areas of the temple are now blessed with the power of the great god of ritual."

"But you are not believers in God, so I cannot let you enter the core area of ​​the protected temple."

"You can stay here, at least it's a little safer than outside."

As Yige said, he took a panoramic view of the disappointed expressions of the civilians in front of him.

There was no disturbance in my heart.

He can indeed directly accept all these civilians inside the barrier.

But the previous events further reduced the importance of civilians in his heart.

Maybe Oswald deserves a back door, but he's not necessarily better than the others to warrant Iger's special treatment.

Therefore, Yige does not intend to make an exception to allow non-believers to enter the core area of ​​the church.

He was not at all worried that this would arouse the resentment of the common people.

Things that are easier to get are less cherished.

Only let these civilians deeply realize that it is their luck and glory in this life to become followers of the great god of etiquette.

In order to ensure that these commoners can at least dedicate their pitiful talents and abilities to the gods.

Seeing her parents' disappointment, Mary felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't dare to speak out against Priest Yige's decision at this time.

She felt somewhat that Priest Yige was a little dissatisfied with her leading the team to reduce staff.

In fact, when she was facing the monster, for some reason, the idea of ​​fighting also came to her mind.

So when Hardy and Atwood, the two leather factory workers, were the first to be overtaken by monsters because of their long-term high-pressure work, they were physically overdrawn.

She didn't continue to run wildly into the distance like everyone else.

Instead, he stayed at the end, watched the monster hunt Hardy and Atwood from a distance, carefully observed the monster's movements and habits, and made preparations.

It was as if one's own hands could really accomplish some kind of miracle and defeat a terrifying monster.

But soon, this abnormal idea was suppressed under the influence of her rationality.

But no matter what, she still became the person in the entire team who knew the monster's situation best.

At the same time, she also saw the fatal moment when the monster killed Hardy and Atwood.

The tall pillars of blood shot from the necks of the two became the bright colors in the gloom of the rainy day.

It also made her feel an indescribable throbbing in her heart.

Of course, the immediate focus is to implement the will of Priest Yige.

Mary then opened her mouth, wanting to repeat Yige's words, to ensure that other civilians would not have unrealistic fantasies because of her existence, and felt that the priest's words could be regarded as empty words with a flexible scale.

But suddenly stopped.

A deafening roar sounded from outside the temple.

That voice was vicious and ferocious as if it came from the abyss of hell, as if every trace of despair and darkness had been released.

With powerful and terrifying power, the roar broke through the barrier of the bronze gate.

Almost tore apart the air, trying to penetrate the human heart.

The tremors caused by the roar made the ground tremble, and the temple shook slightly.

Mary was dazed by the roar, she groped to reach the back of the bench before she finally stopped.

Several civilians reacted more violently. Mary's mother, Pope, and the raw leather factory worker, Boyce, even vomited blood.

Seeing Yige frowned.

They made the temple floor even dirtier.

However, Yige understands that now is not the time to care about this matter.

He quickly told Mary to protect the statue, and then opened the door and left the temple.

The clouds have partly dispersed and the moonlight is falling.

Yige skillfully stood on a nearby dilapidated small building and looked around.

He froze as he looked east.

Pupils constrict.

Incredible.

In the sky above the east of the town, there is a huge monster that he has never seen before hovering!

That is by no means a product of nature!
It has a black scale armor, and each piece looks as if it is cast from the strongest obsidian.

It is several feet long, with smooth and perfect lines.

The sharp claws were stained with blood, sharp and cold like a blade.

When the pair of wings covered with black scales and shining cold and fluorescent like moonlight spread, it seemed that the night sky was about to be torn apart.

Every scale on the wings exudes madness, with a deep hum when they flap.

There was an evil and bloodthirsty aura in the long, narrow, red, ferocious beast-like eyes.

The curved and powerful tail is covered with the same black and tough scales as the body.

The monster flew in the moonlight, leaving behind a ferocious and terrifying shadow, casting despair and death on the ground.

Yige was deeply shocked.

He didn't know what kind of monster it was, and he didn't know how to face such a monster's possible surprise attack from the sky.

Just when his mind was in chaos.

An irresistible torrent washed away the restlessness of his soul.

Show him the way.

[Let’s call it Moonlight Dragon. 】

[Wait patiently, my priest. 】
