Chapter 113 Victims

"I'm not very clear about the specific situation. The Lord's will is not something that mortals like us can speculate on without authorization." Kelly's voice seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with her. "The target is the Sacred Heart after all. Or something else, I don’t know, but it does not affect this mission.”

"As agreed before departure, I will lead you to the location of the target, then use the holy object to collect the target and give it to you to bring back. As for what will happen to me, it seems to have nothing to do with you."

"It really doesn't matter. You said from the beginning that we can give up on you at any time." Shuer said coldly, expressionless, "But if you don't make it clear, how can we believe that collecting the target really has no impact? ? If after collecting the target, the alien projection supported by it suddenly collapses, then it has something to do with us."

"It won't be like this, because..." Kelly hesitated for a moment and finally said it, "My Lord has an agreement with the other party."

"other side?"

"You just said that the God of Water in this world is a complete god. You are right. She is indeed a mature true god. But now, her faith has been completely severed and she is on the verge of dissipation. If it hadn't been for a If something unexpected happens, she may disappear completely within a year or two.”

"The surprise you are talking about probably refers to the projection from another world." Shuer said thoughtfully, "The projection from another world cannot even be copied by higher souls, let alone existences outside the standard such as the heart of water or gods. Theoretically, it is impossible for her to appear in the projection world. However, she can use another method to sneak into the projection world, just like... ahem, in short, as long as you master the timing, it is not impossible to sneak into the projection world. Although it is impossible for mortals to grasp this opportunity, it is not too difficult for gods, even gods that are about to dissipate."

"Well, she accidentally discovered the generation of projections from another world, and took this opportunity to escape to this projection world, and then sent a final distress signal to Parvatija. Our Lord and this god have the same origin, so we A message for help arrived, but the Lord could not come directly, so I replaced the Lord and offered her a helping hand."

"But you never said how to avoid the collapse of the projected world."

"I am one of the carriers of my Lord's coming, you should understand."

"Haha, it's true." Xiu'er smiled sarcastically, and his eyes couldn't tell whether it was ridicule or pity, "The body descended from the gods."

The body descended from the gods is a special physique that most priests cannot ask for. For a certain god, it can withstand the direct arrival of the god's will and power without being assimilated by the god's will. Once such a physique is discovered, it will Pushed to the top of the church.

Every qualified archbishop of the church must be a descendant of the gods, including Lisa of the Dark Moon Church. Only if there is no such thing as a descendant of the gods, ordinary clergymen will be allowed to serve as archbishops.

For the clergy, this is the highest honor and the fastest shortcut to religious power. However, at very special moments, the divine body also means responsibility and sacrifice, such as Kelly now.

"After finding the target, she will use my special characteristics to transfer a little of the remaining divine power into my body. Then, I will replace her as the core and temporarily support the world, so that she can hide in the holy object and be with you. Leave. Of course, the divine power that a mortal body can withstand is not too much, but it can still be done by barely supporting the world for more than ten days, which is enough for you to return to Parvatiga with the holy objects."

"When we get to Parvatiga, my Lord's will will be supported outside to ensure that she can reach the other side smoothly, and of course you will not be in any danger."

"Even if it is to ensure that the holy objects can be returned to Parvatiga smoothly, my Lord will not harm you. Moreover, my Lord has officially promised Lord Dark Moon that he will never intentionally put you into death, so I have said this from the beginning. Say, you don’t have to worry about anything.”

There is no need to say what follows. Everyone can escape from the alien projection, but Kelly, who is the support point, must not leave the core position.After everyone escaped from the projection of the other world, the passage to the escape point was closed. Kelly could only stay in this world alone until the divine power remaining in her body was exhausted. Then, along with the collapsed projection world, she turned into a human in the endless void. nothingness.

The shadow chasers all recalled what Xiu Er told everyone in private not long ago, he asked everyone to be kind to Kaili. Kindness is not too much to ask of a man who is doomed to die alone.

"Why choose us?" Xiure asked without comment on Kelly's statement, "Among the Shadow Chaser team, we are not the strongest. There are several equally mature teams, and there are even legendary warriors in them. .Similarly, we are not the most experienced. As far as I know, there are at least ten shadow chasing teams with more experience than us. In terms of strength and reputation, we are not top-notch, but we were selected for such an important task. Don’t you think it’s weird?”

"It's not surprising. As you said, if you want to find a strong team, we have many choices. Compared with the top few, you are still far behind." I don't know what euphemism is at all, and Kelly's words attracted a lot of attention. There was a dry cough, but everyone had already seen that this person only knew how to speak bluntly, so no one had the intention to argue with her, so they could only grit their teeth secretly.Unfortunately, Kelly didn't know that she would offend someone, so she continued, "Moreover, even with Lady Judy's introduction, it would be difficult for us to trust you until Lady Judy said something."

"Lord Judy said, in terms of strength, you are not as good as those two teams from Xuefeng Empire, and in terms of experience, you are also not as good as the two teams of Night Elf Vallem and Wind God Priest Ferdinand, but, first, You are the closest, and you have the time, and second, in terms of security, those teams are inferior to you." "The Archbishop has inquired about your team. Since its establishment two years ago, it has been known that there have been more than ten shadow-chasing operations. Including the newly joined Mr. Makajeren, and several extra temporary personnel including Baron Dak, a total of 14 people have participated in your operation, and the loss of personnel is zero."

"Maybe the loot you bring out each time is not as much as that of other teams, but you can all return alive every time. This kind of loss rate can be said to be almost unique. And this mission requires exactly this kind of stability. For my Lord, as long as you can accept the task, it means that 80.00% of the task has been successfully completed."

"In addition, knowing that you are the priest of Lord Dark Moon, my Lord has become more determined to entrust the task to you. For this purpose, he can personally negotiate with Lord Dark Moon, and even make a heavy oath."

"This is the reason why I'm looking for you. What the Archbishop said is indeed true. You will find out sooner or later. I will tell you so once you ask. But I didn't expect that you would find out so early."

"Early? I found out too late!" Shuer slammed the table, stood up suddenly, his expression full of extreme anger, and said loudly, "If I had known this, I would have doubled the reward! Anyway, You are looking for me at all costs, and even if I double the price, you will eventually agree. Why should I worry about my asking price being too high and scaring you away?"

Kelly was really a little stunned this time, her mouth slightly opened, and she stared at Xiure in surprise, as if she wanted to see a monster. As for the others, they covered their eyes and lowered their heads neatly, and they couldn't bear to look directly at him anymore.

"Ahem, cough, it's nothing." He coughed a few times and sat down again. Xiure said seriously, "Habitual reaction, no, no, no, wrong. I was joking to lighten the atmosphere. You are so smart, you must have noticed that I That’s the purpose.”

"Uh, ah." Kelly nodded blankly, not yet out of the sluggish state.

"Very good, I knew you could tell." Shuer picked up the ceremonial ax on the table and played with it, "Why didn't you tell me from the beginning? Fortunately, the long-lasting memory of this sacramental object was stimulated by something unknown. Now, let us see the past scene, so that I can understand the purpose of your Water Temple, otherwise, we don’t know when we will know, and that would be too embarrassing.”

"We are afraid...you will stop our plan." Kelly asked tentatively, "The archbishop is worried that even if you enter this world, you will stop me for some reason, so he chooses to hide it as much as possible, unless it is absolutely necessary. I will never tell you."

"Oh, you also know that your plan is not human." Xiu Er smiled sarcastically, "If we send a woman to the altar with our own hands, and then light a fire, it means that all of us will be killed by our own hands. If you are me, would you agree with me? Forget it, you can’t understand what empathy is, and it’s useless to ask you.”

Kelly really didn't understand, so she could only stare at Shuer.

"Don't worry, the agreed deal will not change. We will do it according to your wishes." Shuer looked at his teammates and said leisurely, "The same goes for them. No one will stop you."

"We do not agree with your sacrifice, but we respect your ideas, and we will not try to use our own values ​​to forcefully change your choice. Since you think it is right to do this, and you would rather die than do it, then If we stop you, we will harm you, so everything remains as usual."

Shuer looked at the shadow chasers around him. Everyone's expressions were calm and no one expressed any objection.

"Thank you." Kelly stood up and bowed solemnly in thanks, "Even if I die, my soul will be grateful for your help."

"You won't even have a soul at that time." Moria added, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, "In the void, even your soul will be annihilated, and you will not be able to return to the Holy Lake."

"That's my honor." Kelly smiled rarely, her smile really full of pride.

Knowing that he couldn't change the other party's mind, Xiu Er secretly sighed: "That's it, continue to rest here tonight, observe the night situation, and decide when to leave tomorrow."
