Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

In a hurry, the "shadow warrior" Bode sneaked into the shadows and avoided the fatal attack.

But his forehead was already sweating, and his inner evaluation of the enemy's threat had been raised to a higher level.

The "holy beast" in front of him, the giant wolf with golden flames wrapped all over its body, was undoubtedly much more powerful than ordinary holy beasts, and the spiritual pressure it exuded was even enough to directly confront the extraordinary people of the "fourfold destiny"!

Bode thought about these things quickly in his mind. Facing this unprecedented powerful holy beast, his inner excitement became stronger and stronger.

His right hand then quietly reached behind his waist, pulled out a slender black dagger from the black scabbard close to his body, and gently slashed the blade across his wrist.

The sharp blade silently cut the flesh of the wrist, and the blood that flowed out quickly wrapped the blade.

The blood that covered the dagger's edge actually burned the next moment, and black flames jumped up.

"Shadow Warrior" Bode, at the moment when he burned the blade with his spirit and blood, his entire aura changed from the root.

In the next moment, the figure of "Shadow Warrior" disappeared from the spot, leaving only the sound of the wind whistling through the forest.

Fenrir could not catch the other party's breath, and could only roughly judge the other party's hiding position from the wisps of hostile spirit that gradually wrapped around his body.

Suddenly.

——Swish! A fierce sound of breaking through the air broke out instantly, and Fenrir's abdomen was pierced by an invisible attack, leaving a deep hole. The figure of "Shadow Warrior" Bode appeared in it for a moment, and then hid his figure again and lost all sound.

Puff, golden blood gushed out of Fenrir's wound. Although Fenrir in the [Glorious] form had a holy light shield to protect his body, the attack caused by "Shadow Warrior" Bode was "Original" damage, which made his shield only resist part of the damage, and his body still suffered considerable trauma.

"Hiss..." Fenrir clenched his fangs, and the flames on his body began to vibrate, and a terrifying atmosphere suddenly spread.

The enemy did not appear again, so Fenrir gradually retreated, and he remained highly alert, alertly watching for the enemy's next possible attack.

However, "Shadow Warrior" Bode seemed to have completely evaporated from the battlefield. In Fenrir's perception, he could not capture the specific location of any enemy except for the dense hostile spirits around him.

Until the spirits behind him suddenly became disordered, Fenrir quickly turned around and spit out a large range of shining golden flames at the disordered spirits!

——Boom! On the path of Fenrir's flames, a human figure holding a black dagger was illuminated by the flames.

"Shadow Warrior" Bode's attack path was seen through, and the flames devoured his newly ignited black fire, spreading and burning on his clothes!

"Tsk..." Bode's face turned pale in an instant. He didn't expect that the "holy beast" on the opposite side would have such a large attack range. After being burned by the flames, Bode's sneak attack could not continue.

And the "black fire" that burned with his spirituality and blood was gradually extinguished as the duration ended. Bode then stepped back and his figure disappeared into the darkness again.

But Fenrir, who had successfully burned Bode with the "holy flame", followed the remaining breath of the flame and launched a pursuit of the enemy.

"This damn beast..." Feeling Fenrir chasing him from behind, the face of "Shadow Warrior" Bode became darker and darker. As he retreated quickly, the dagger in his hand once again crossed his wrist.

——Puff!

However, before Bode could cut his flesh and blood with the sword and burn the blood, he heard the sound of his flesh being pierced and broken.

Then came the intense pain from his chest.

His eyes became brighter than ever before. In Bode's somewhat dazed eyes, he saw the light, the shining golden, scorching glow, which was constantly escaping from his chest.

He lowered his head and saw only a golden horn with golden light flowing, which had pierced his chest.

…

——"Pegasus Thunder Strike"!

Following the breath left by Fenrir, Luo Xiu, riding the "Golden Pegasus" Pegasus, finally caught up with the fleeing enemy at this moment.

"Shadow Warrior" Bode, he was preparing for the next bloody enchantment ritual, and Luo Xiu immediately let Pegasus pierce him with the "Glorious Horn", interrupting all his subsequent actions.

Then, the golden wings quickly gathered on both sides of the body of Pegasus, and the golden wings spread out, and flew into the sky with Luo Xiu on the horse and the "Shadow Warrior" Bode who was pierced by the sharp horn!

Pegasus stepped on the light and ran fast, and countless shining flying stars began to gather around him at the same time.

These flying stars quickly gathered the power of "annihilation" as Pegasus flew, and looking up from the ground, it was like a group of meteors emitting bursts of brilliance.

"You...you guys..."

"Shadow Warrior" Bode groaned in his mouth. He was hit hard by the sudden attack, and his chest was constantly sending waves of severe pain.

In addition, the biting wind in the air kept squeezing the exposed wound, and Bode fainted for a while.

But he soon regained consciousness, and then his hands tightly hugged the sharp horn that pierced his chest, trying to push it out of his chest.

But soon, Bode gave up such an idea. Just looking down with a hazy consciousness, he understood his current situation.

He was now in the sky! The original church courtyard was now completely within Bode's field of vision. There were clusters of light flickering in it. The "holy clergy" of the church had blocked and surrounded the edge of the inner courtyard.

The most dazzling and dense place of light was the gathering point where Bode had ordered his "Black Fangs" to sneak attack the church. The "holy clergy" released the bright glow of the holy art, which showed that the church had a complete advantage.

And the "Black Fangs" he brought with him might have been wiped out... Bode thought pessimistically that the situation had already deviated far from his expectations at this point.

Suddenly, a flat and indifferent voice came from behind Bode:

"The lackeys of the Executioner Koros, the hidden 'Fang Head', the 'Shadow Warrior' Bode, I knew you would do something."

That was the voice of the "high priest" of the church! Bode turned back with difficulty, and he saw the young face from the corner of his eye, the face that was both immature and mature, harmless and terrifying.

Seeing Bode's eyes bursting with anger, Luo Xiu smiled faintly and said:

"If nothing unexpected happens, all the 'Black Fangs' you brought should have been destroyed."

"And you, 'Shadow Warrior' Bode."

"You will soon go to hell, and may the Holy Light protect you at that time."

The moment Luo Xiu's voice fell, the brilliant horn of "Golden Pegasus" Pegasus that penetrated Bode's body turned into golden light and dissipated. Bode, who lost his support, fell heavily to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

The "Falling Star of Pegasus" that had completed all the power, and the flying stars that originally surrounded Pegasus also shot towards Bode and quickly caught up with him.

——Boom! Boom boom boom boom! ! !

The flying stars that hit the body of "Shadow Warrior" Bode exploded one after another, and brilliant flames burst out in the air. In the panel detection of Bode maintained by Luo Xiu, he was first penetrated by "Pegasus Thunder Strike", and his health was only half left. Under the bombardment of flying stars, it was instantly reduced to the bottom!

Although Bode could dodge the bombardment of some flying stars with his high agility attribute, dozens of flying stars still caught up with him and blasted part of his body into ashes.

When the light fog in the air dissipated and the thick smoke began to roll, Bode's broken body, which was already riddled with holes, had fallen heavily to the ground, smashing out a deep pit.

Luo Xiu, riding Pegasus, landed smoothly on the ground. He immediately recalled Pegasus and walked towards the place where "Shadow Warrior" Bode fell.

In the center of the ring-shaped broken pit, "Shadow Warrior" Bode had lost all his life and turned into a corpse.

"He's dead." After the panel detection of Bode and the kill prompt that popped up in the mailbox proved that Bode was dead, Luo Xiu did not stay and turned to the location of another "quadruple fate" invader at this time.

"Poison Hunter" Alessa, she was lying on the grass at the edge of the previous battlefield, looking at the sparse starry sky with despair.

"Fang Shou" and "Shadow Warrior" Bode who came with her exploded into fireworks in front of her. The fear in the heart of "Poison Hunter" Alessa became stronger, but her broken body made it difficult for her to move at all.

One of her arms had been cut off, and the wounds on her body were still oozing blood.

"Poison Hunter" Alessa, her body had gathered into a sticky pool of blood, her vitality was being continuously drawn out, her "spirituality" was leaving her, her consciousness was gradually becoming dim, and she fell into true death.

Luo Xiu walked in front of her. The panel detection showed that she had entered a dying state, and the remaining life value was still fading. It would not take too long for her to die from excessive blood loss.

When Luo Xiu walked in front of her, the desperate expression on Alessa's face faded, and a cruel look appeared instead.

"Kill... Ho ho... Kill me." Alessa uttered a hoarse voice intermittently from her throat, "My... colleagues... Ho ho... will... avenge us..."

"..." Luo Xiu shook his head silently, ignoring Alessa's dying cruel words, and just prayed silently.

A ball of light containing annihilation began to appear in his palm. He looked at the dying enemy in front of him with pity and said softly:

"May the Holy Light protect you."

After that, he waved his arm lightly, and the ball of light of "Holy Light Annihilation" flew towards Alessa's body and burst into her half body.

The dazzling glow finally engulfed the body of the "Poison Hunter", and her life came to an end.

The blazing holy flame began to devour everything around it, and the body of the "Poison Hunter" was completely annihilated into powder, with only the blood on the ground as proof of her existence.

After completely killing the "Poison Hunter" Alessa and the "Shadow Warrior" Bode, Luo Xiu recalled Fenrir and looked around the surrounding scene.

This corner of the inner courtyard had been severely damaged by the previous battle, with broken trees and collapsed buildings everywhere. The burning marks of the holy flame, the erosion marks of the poisonous fog, and various cracks caused by explosions and collisions can be seen everywhere. They lie there quietly, as if silently telling the story of the previous fierce battle.

Fortunately, the main buildings in the inner courtyard were not affected too much by the fighting. The "Daji Residence" with the barrier opened remained intact, forming a sharp contrast with the signs of destruction around it.

"The budget needs to be increased...and the protection level of the barrier should be further strengthened..."

Luo Xiu was thinking about this, and he quickened his pace at the same time, leaving the established battlefield and walking towards where the other priests were fighting fiercely.

…

--boom!

The war hammer fell, blood splattered.

In front of Anthony, the last "Black Fang"'s head opened the skylight, and he suddenly lost the last strength of resistance, and his body fell down as soft as mud.

Behind Anthony, Pamier also cut a "Black Tooth" in two. Half of Black Tooth's body was hanging high on the landscape tree nearby, and the other half was buried deep in the soil of the flower bed. .

"This is here...the last enemy."

Anthony spoke in a brisk voice, but his face was pale, and the obvious wounds on his body betrayed his current state.

He and Pamier killed four "Black Fangs" in total. The remaining Black Fangs who broke into the church were surrounded by other Holy Inquisitors and "deacons" of the church. There was no news from the pre-set ambush points for the time being. This at least shows that the current situation is still under control and the enemy's actions are not yet under control. Not out of control.

After saying that, Anthony staggered. Finally he could no longer support his tired and weak body and fell heavily to the ground.

At the same time that Anthony fell, Pamier behind him also fell, and traces of bright red blood seeped out from the armor.

Pamier's condition was even worse than Anthony's at this time, she had long lost consciousness. She had just been promoted to "Triple Destiny" and relied on the advantages of her own equipment to barely kill the second Black Fang. This was the limit of her current combat power.

But fortunately, they were all only "seriously injured" and not on the verge of death.

The two chief lieutenants of the church's "Holy Inquisition" just lay motionless on the ground. After the battle, they finally relaxed their tense nerves. For them, "coma" was a complete relaxation.

Until dawn.

…

Morning time.

Red Maple City Church, inner courtyard of Glory Church.

Luo Xiu did not rest. As soon as he finished making arrangements for the aftermath of the "Pishou" invasion, he went to the "Missionary" to visit Anthony and Pamier.

Their condition at this time was much better than when the battle just ended in the early morning.

The church's existing high-level life potions healed their injuries very well, allowing them to return to their prime state faster than usual.

At this time, just as Luo Xiu entered Anthony's room, Anthony just woke up from his coma.

"You're here... Luo Xiu."

Anthony covered his forehead, enduring the dizziness when he first woke up, and asked Luo Xiu:

"Where is the enemy? The enemy..."

"The enemies have been dealt with."

Luo Xiu nodded in response and said:

"Their leaders, 'Poison Hunter' and 'Shadow Warrior' have been killed by me. And all the 'Black Fangs' they brought have been confirmed dead. You have done a good job, Anthony."

"...That's good...ahem."

Anthony coughed twice, his face became a little indifferent, and then continued to ask Luo Xiu: "Then... where are our casualties?"

"...We sacrificed four novice priests and two full-time priests. None of the 'deacons' were killed, but they all suffered minor or serious injuries."

After a pause, Luo Xiu continued: "But their injuries are not serious, Anthony. They will soon be able to return to their previous intact condition."

"That's right..." Anthony nodded.

"This is 'war'... This is the war we are living through."

He prayed silently, his bandaged hands forming a sacred triangle on his chest, and a solemn but sad expression appeared on his face.

Sighing, Anthony finally whispered:

"...I hope the war will stop soon."

"...Hopefully no more tragedy will occur."

"May the victims be able to go to the 'eternal' heaven."
