Kuai Chuan's face-slapping gold finger

Chapter 37

The hearts of Yu Miaojun and Yang Zhao are broken...

They knew that there were many good things in Luke's system, such as teleportation scrolls, city return buttons, etc. They wanted to catch him off guard and prevent him from getting out of the battle, but he ran away!Moreover, this stand-in puppet was never mentioned in the Jade Slip, so it can be seen that in the original trajectory of fate, he did not even encounter life-threatening danger.

I don't know how many kinds of this kind of props he has. If there are a hundred or so, wouldn't it be impossible to kill them at all?
What's more unfortunate is that Luke must not dare to show up with great fanfare when he escapes this time. They have lost their surveillance of him. They can only blame them for being too underestimating the enemy. This time is different from the previous two worlds. A mortal without the strength to restrain a chicken.

The two looked at each other helplessly and sighed regretfully.

However, in the face of failure, the pope was calmer than anyone else. He said calmly: "Let's go to the magic pool first, maybe there can tell us the answer."

This time, they're going round and round.

After another three days, they finally arrived at the center of the Devil's Nest Valley. The environment here is so harsh that even monsters rarely appear. There are only some black trees polluted by magic energy, with branches stretched towards the sky, like withered Ghost Claw.

The rotting leaves of the trees fell into the magic pool, emitting a stench. It was an abyssal smell mixed with rot and death, even worse than the stench of the magic nest valley itself.

There is boiling black water in the pool, at the beginning even the reflection will not appear, but you only need to stare at it, slowly you will see the mountains burning with flames, continuously spouting highly poisonous magma, spreading like blood Come, wash away countless human corpses.The monsters spread their wings and covered a large shadow. They pierced the human heart with their giant claws and crushed the human throat with their sharp teeth. The mortals were irresistible and could only endure bloody killings over and over again.

"Be careful!" Yu Miaojun pulled Helena, and the girl's eyes were all dyed black, as if possessed by a demon.

Helena was a little scared, patted her chest, wrinkled her nose and was about to say something, but accidentally found some gray paper scraps scattered around the magic pool, which had already been soaked in the soil and stuck to the ground.

"What is this?" Helena carefully picked up a piece, which was obviously a man-made trace.

"Don't touch it casually." The pope wrapped it in holy light and took it, closed his eyes and sensed it with spiritual power, his withered face was full of solemnity. "This should be a summoning scroll."

"Summoning scroll?" Everyone turned their eyes to the magic pool one after another, and they were all silent.

It is rumored that the magic pool is the birthplace of all monsters. The monsters that surrounded the camp before should have been summoned from the magic pool.

"I think we need to seal this place." Helena proposed, thinking that it would be impossible with their abilities, otherwise the Demon's Nest Valley would still exist, and she couldn't help showing a sense of loss. "At least, seal around, so that the person named Luke can't get close."

Even so, it is very difficult.

At this moment, the Demon Pool seemed to feel their threat, and a huge vortex formed from the bottom of the pool. A pair of slender arms stretched out from the vortex. Its five fingers were sharp, and the nails shone with a dark cold light.

"It's an abyssal demon, oh my god, this magic pool is already conscious!"

Everyone was terrified, even Yu Miaojun and Yang Zhao were very surprised. They understood what it means to have a consciousness in the magic pool—even without Luke, it can choose to give birth to the most powerful monster with its own wisdom. , control them to break out of the Devil's Nest Valley and wreak havoc on the Esther Continent!
This point is also not recorded in the jade slips. It only mentioned that after Luke defeated the Temple of Light, he immediately ordered people to overthrow the statue of Light, took off the two eyeballs carved with gemstones from the gods, and threw them into the magic pool.They didn't understand what it meant at the time, and thought it was just that he wanted to humiliate the temple. Now that they think about it, how precious these two celestial gems are, Luke can easily give them up. Perhaps it is a last resort, he is to suppress the consciousness of the magic pool!

However, Luke, the gem of the god of heaven, could not do so in the Temple of Light. It was a blasphemy against the God of Light, and it was a more terrifying thing than the knowledge of the magic pool.

Everyone was extremely anxious. Seeing that the abyssal demon had revealed its deformed head, they couldn't help feeling desperate. Could it be that there was no other way?
At this time, everyone heard a sigh in a trance, sighing the vicissitudes and helplessness of the world, and saw the pope pointed at the scepter, and a holy light immediately pierced the devil's head, and black smoke rose from the wound, like Like it was burnt.

Accompanied by a depressing and painful scream, the abyss demon with half of its body exposed quickly shrank back. The vortex became bigger and bigger, the black water was surging, and the surrounding devil energy gradually gathered, so thick that it almost blocked their sight .

At this time, Xu Miaojun suddenly felt a trace of sadness, which seemed to be an emotion that did not belong to him, it was very strange, and he didn't know why.

A mass of silvery white light emerged from the surging black mist, more dazzling than the high-hanging sun, more eye-catching than the burning stars, it contained the majestic power of destroying the world, but it was as pure as a newborn baby, " With a bang, the air exploded, and the power of light spread rapidly, struggling with the black mist.

The surroundings became gray, and a phantom appeared in this gray. He was still wearing a silver crown, a sword hanging from his waist, and a scepter in his hand. The scepter was tapped lightly at Lionel, and a solemn and solemn voice resounded between heaven and earth.

"In the name of light, a devout believer—Mr. Lionel, No. 60 of the Temple of Light, the seventh pope, Gerba Eich, will crown you."

"My lord pope!" Everyone looked at the phantom in the sky in shock. Helena had tears in her eyes, and she was about to cry. They finally understood what the pope was going to do!
"From now on, you will wear the crown."

The Pope's crown appears on Lionel's head.

"You will hold a scepter."

Lionel's staff was wrapped in silver light, and when the light dissipated, the staff transformed into the Pope's staff.

"You will have the highest glory."

A sword hangs from Lionel's waist, and a ring appears on his upper left index finger.

"You will become the No.60 Eighth Pope of the Temple of Light, and remember, you will always defend the peace of the Esther Continent with fairness and compassion, and lead all living beings to enjoy power and light forever!"

Lionel put on a flaming red cloak behind him, and the flames were blazing, as if they could burn the endless darkness.

The crowd could no longer control their tears, and their pope would sacrifice all his power to seal the will of the Demon Pool!
"The God of Light is above."

Yang Zhao's voice was a little unstable at the moment, the mission of the third generation, it was the first time he felt such a heavy mission on his shoulders, the pope's self-sacrifice awakened his long-lost sense of responsibility, his state of mind gradually overlapped with Lionel's, every time he attached Being in him is just an experience, but for the people in that world, it is hope and salvation.

The pope's phantom gradually faded until it disappeared. The turbulent black mist finally subsided, the weak sunlight poured down, and countless silver crystal dust shone in the sky, like the first snow in winter.

The old Gerba Eshi gave the inheritance.

Young Lionel finally reached the top!
Witnessed by the scarlet land of the Devil's Nest Valley, Helena and Phoenix led all the servants of God to kneel down on one knee, touching their foreheads with their hands, to meet their new Pope!
Suddenly, a wonderful song came from the clouds thousands of miles away, with the power to purify people's hearts, carefree, like seven-color candies in the hands of children, like a rainbow after rain.

Yu Miaojun looked up in surprise, she felt the power of light in her body grow wildly, she saw Lionel bathed in the holy light from the sky, his long flaxen hair fluttering in the wind, like a beautiful mountain eagle.

There was no more rancid smell in her nose, only the fragrance of flowers.

She heard someone calling her name affectionately, and the person said, Phoenix, my child...

It was the inspiration of the gods. For the first time, she clearly realized that there is really a god in this world!
——Thousands of years later, the miraculous light once again came to the world!
This is a mysterious coronation ceremony, and the Temple of Light conceals everything that happened next to the magic pool.

But history will always remember this unusual change of power. When they returned to the Temple of Light, Lionel immediately appointed Phoenix as the new goddess in the name of the Pope, and officially announced that Luke would be included in the list of the Temple of Light. It also announced to every corner of the Esther continent that any force that dares to shelter Luke means declaring war on the temple!
Lionel's name quickly resounded across the continent, and his resolute actions shocked and puzzled many people. Why did the temple target such a young mage?Why did the Pope change without warning?What role does this Luke play in it?
Of course, the temple would not answer them, and no one dared to ask.

The king of the Monka Empire was very frightened. He was well aware of his daughter's friendship with Luke, and immediately sent someone to watch her closely, lest she do anything impulsive to offend the temple and bring disaster to the empire.

The Magic Council, which had been infiltrated by Luke, carried out a large-scale purge in a grand manner. They needed to use actions to prove to the temple that they stood by the light.

Today's Luke is like a mouse crossing the street, he can only hide around, even disguised as a mercenary and mixed into the lowest mercenary team. He thought about hiding in the Devil's Nest Valley, but in this way, he couldn't do the tasks issued by the system at all. After completion, there is no way to upgrade without experience. You can only stay there forever. Like other undead, you will gradually forget yourself and lose your soul.

Even the only demon summoning scroll that can be relied on in the Demon's Nest Valley is now useless, turning into a gray icon lying quietly in the inventory.

Lying on the pile of rotting leaves, covered in mud, Luke, who had lost his brilliance, swore in pain: one day, he would stand on the top of the stone statue of the God of Light, overlooking the temple shrouded in gunpowder smoke and blood. He is the only belief in the Esther Continent!
