Our family is in decline

Chapter 688 I am the flame 1

But now he needs to solve some problems first. He looks back at the people who are in torture, opens his hands, and makes a calm but rich voice with a unique rhythm.

"There is no need to be afraid. Fear and despair cannot overwhelm us, because I am right beside you."

The sound seemed to have magical power, reverberating in the brain and even directly touching the soul.

Two forces were confronting each other in their hearts, and the fear that shrouded them melted quickly like ice meeting the scorching sun.

"Then send me to hell! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!"

Boudica responded first. She resisted the power of fear, and then a firm belief emerged in her heart and expanded rapidly. She let out a war cry to adjust her breathing rhythm.

"Maybe fate is in our hands." Amanda showed a wry smile, put down the raised card, and joked to herself.

Because it seems that as long as he is around Lance, his divination results are basically wrong. If you look at the divination results on the other hand, they may not be bad.

The two of them broke free so easily because of the effect of the holy water and their deep affection, or trust, for Lance.

But Audrey didn't think so. She didn't react so strongly to Lance's words. Desperation still clutched her heart, but she simply refused when they expressed their stance.

"A decent lady would not die willingly!"

These words already illustrate her selfish nature, but this should be the reaction of a normal person. After all, she does not know the dangers of the cult, nor does she know Lance's true strength.

On the contrary, people like Boudica seemed to her to be as crazy and stupid as those cultists.

"Take this and leave. You have completed your mission and are now free." Lance did not force her to do anything, but instead handed her a bottle of universal potion as a signal.

Lance is too lazy to be a nanny. He wants to tear this dungeon apart now. Audrey is just a burden.

Audrey looked at the potion in her hand and didn't know what to do for a moment. Was he really letting her go?

However, the movement just now has attracted the attention of some beings in the dungeon. While they were stalling here, a true believer approached them.

"enemy!"

Amanda yelled, there was no need to question anything, only enemies appeared here.

Lance looked back and saw a guy covered in gold-painted black robes approaching quickly in a strange drifting manner that seemed to move without moving.

For Lance, who had browsed the secret files of the cult leader, he had a certain understanding of the personnel structure and habits of the entire Ascension Sect.

In order to distinguish those old gods, the ancestors called themselves new gods.

And of all the cultists gathered in the land, there was a small group whose fanatical devotion and worship was so great that they received the "great blessing" of the new god.

This Lance also had related impressions during the battle with the cultists before, but he called it [seed], or more accurately, flesh and blood corruption.

However, there is a failure rate in the things the ancestors did, and this was called the [Ascension Trial] by those cultists.

Success is naturally to control the power implanted in the body step by step, and reshape their bodies with the help of great blessings.

And those who lose...their bodies will spiral out of control into a twisted mixture of "incomprehensible" shapes composed of flesh, teeth, eyes, and tentacles.

Different from previous failed attempts, there are many cultists who control the power of blessing. However, only those who completely shed their human bodies and master new forms can become cult priests.

Because of these "great blessings", they are one of the highest-ranking members of the cult. The gold-plated luxurious ritual cloaks that distinguish them from the pure black cloaks of ordinary believers illustrate their status.

Because of their noble status, they rarely appear outside the dark dungeon. Only the leader and a few high-level cult officials know of their existence.

The job of the cult priest is to perform mysterious and evil rituals, and unfortunately, the person who opened the door was one of them.

For the cultists of the Ascension Sect, only truly devout believers can receive the blessings of their gods.

Similarly, only by controlling the power of that great blessing can one truly pass the trial and then open the [Door of Oblivion] to enter here.

These devout believers usually have priests coming to receive them, which is why the priests appear here.

But unfortunately, those who came in this time were not devout believers.

But an intruder!

"Witness my courage!"

Under that oath-like shout, Boudica ignited the long-repressed anger, and the outburst of anger completely burned away the fear.

He raised his ax and gun and took one step forward before Lance. However, he saw that the cult priest reacted so quickly. He even turned around and dodged with exaggerated movements that were difficult for humans to do. The violent movements made the ritual cloak flutter. That reaction Not like a spellcaster at all.

But Boudicca's attack was equally swift and fierce. He missed the target and suddenly raised his ax gun in an attempt to tear the incoming enemy apart.

Then at this moment, the cult priest finally took action. Two tentacles suddenly stretched out from under his cloak and grabbed the ax gun. The sharp ax blade that had just been ground failed to cut the tentacles. Instead, Boudica was pulled and stopped. For a moment.

This flaw was fatal to a battle of this level. The cult priest leaned forward violently, and a strange purple-black tentacle covered with spikes stretched out from under the darkness shrouded in the cloak.

Death whipping!

Boudica wanted to raise the ax gun in front of him, but the two tentacles were tightly controlled. Look at the dense spikes. If they were slapped, their flesh and blood would be scraped off.

"puff!"

With a muffled sound, the thick arrow shot directly into the priest's head. The strong force above was all absorbed, causing the body to be stunned and interrupting the spiked tentacle attack.

At this time, Amanda had also moved. She raised her hand and threw out the flying knife with extraordinary power, which was accurately inserted into the priest's body. The burst of power made her grip on the ax gun weaken.

Boudica seized this opportunity, suddenly used strength to snatch the ax gun back, and struck it down on the head with a backhand swing.

The polished ax blade cut open the delicate cloak, and the tough flesh fell into the flesh, but it was stuck by the bones.

There must be no hesitation during the battle. The consequences of jamming the weapon are very serious, so he kicked it out and used the strength to pull out the ax gun.

The cult priest flew backwards and fell to the ground. This action puffed up his cloak, revealing the terrifying body wrapped inside.

It has completely lost its human form, and is more like a mixture of flesh, bones, and various organs forcibly fused together.

The hands and feet on his body were completely replaced by tentacles. It was his hands that grabbed the axe. The reason why he could move instead of walking was because his lower limbs had turned into octopus-like arms and legs.

The whole body was covered in fresh flesh color, but it was covered with ulcers, similar to the corrupt appearance of many cultists, and the flesh and blood seemed to be corroded and dissolved and then restored with scars.

The upper body was severely hunched, so exaggerated that the original back became the top of the head, as if the human torso was twisted and folded at ninety degrees.

The strange thing is that there are several skulls entangled in flesh and blood on it, which shows that the priest likes to devour something.

It has no facial features such as eyes, ears, and nose. It is defined as a head simply because it has a ferocious big mouth in front, and the turned-up lips reveal weird teeth, which reminds people of a limp.

The purple tentacle just now must have stretched out from it, because it still carried the arrow shot by Lance.

The attack just now did not cause much damage to it. The tentacles of its lower limbs stood up again as soon as they arched. The two thick tentacles rolled up arrows and threw knives and pulled them out. Their flexibility was no worse than both hands. Those wounds and the wounds on the head were The cracks that were opened are also healing quickly.

But at this time, Lance had already pulled out the wolf fang from the void and swung his sword up. The cult priest who responded hastily wanted to use his two tentacles to stop him like before, but the sharpness of the wolf fang was not comparable to that of ordinary iron. This is the power of rules.

He swung the knife and cut off the tentacle directly. Perhaps he was aware of the danger, but the cult priest didn't care about it. He rushed forward and leaned down to deliver a swift blow.

No one could have imagined that the part that looked like the head of the cult priest would split open, and a weird-shaped spine would shoot out from his back like an ejection at a speed that was difficult to react.

Deep sacrifice with one finger!

Even though Lance reacted, the distance between the two sides was too close, and the tip pierced him like a sharp blade.

“waaagh!!!”

A roar suddenly erupted, and the power contained in it failed to deter the priest, but the ax blade struck the spine and made a metal knocking sound.

It successfully deflected the spine that was originally inserted into Lance's head and penetrated into his torso, but it no longer had the power to penetrate his body.

At this moment, Lance understood why, as a priest, it chose to attack at close range instead of casting spells, because the moment the sharp blade penetrated the spine, he felt an evil and strange force trying to invade from the wound.

In other words, any of its attacks carry evil power and will corrupt the body and soul. This guy has been casting spells all the time, but it only affects itself.

But Lance was not afraid at all. He pulled out the spine on his chest with one hand and stabbed his fangs into the exposed heart due to the ejection of the spine, which caused a large amount of flesh and blood.

This sudden attack failed to kill Lance, so its death was doomed.

But not only Lance, Boudica and Amanda also followed, pouring their power towards the priest, and soon turned into a ball of rotten flesh.

Confidence comes like a tide when the enemy collapses!

"How dare one of you charge forward?" Lance looked at the thing and couldn't help but complain. It didn't even cast a single evil spell.

"This guy is so stupid!" Boudica kicked him over and shouted.

"Are you okay?"

Amanda looked at the damage left by the spinal puncture on Lance's chest. There was an obvious tear in the clothes, and blood seeped out.

Lance glanced down, looking calm as if he wasn't hurt.

The sharp blade on his spine indeed injured him, but the asylum exempted him from soul pollution, and the power that corroded the wound was instantly defeated by the blessing, and the flesh and blood was reconstructed to smooth the wound.

It can be said that this injury recovered instantly without any impact at all.

Still a little bit...

"It ruined my clothes."

Lance complained slightly speechlessly, and casually sacrificed his body, feeling the gift, and feeling a lot more psychologically balanced.

As expected, they are at the top, and their spirituality is quite rich. The cultists above are not even close to it. I am afraid that only the top few can match it.

The cultists who had cleaned up the old house had already been replenished. If the cultists here were of this level now, it would be hard for Lance to estimate the gains after sacrificing them.

After sparing a little at the beginning, Lance now directly blessed Boudica and Amanda to refresh their status.

"Let's go, we have to clean up those cultists before they react."

Lance quickly adjusted the team's status and prepared to continue deep into the dungeon to explore the secrets of the ancestor.

Audrey in the back was like a spectator. She didn't take any action just now. She had a strong tendency to protect herself and even wanted to run away.

But when he saw Lance and the others killing the cult priest with overwhelming force, the pressure in his heart was inexplicably reduced.

She didn't know whether it was the effect of the holy water or her natural big heart, but she soon calmed down again.

If the enemy can be knocked down or even killed, it means that this ghost place is not as scary as one imagines.

As she began to adapt to the environment and the external pressure subsided, she began to think about a problem.

That is, if he really takes the potion and leaves, will he be able to get out alive?

People with complicated minds always like to be suspicious, especially a tomb robber like her who has been involved in the dark side all year round, and is extremely sensitive.

It was too simple to let herself go. She even suspected that the antidote in her hand was fake or poison. If she drank it, she would die suddenly.

I don’t know if the red mist affected her brain, or if she was born with a tendency to like this feeling of being dominated. When doubts arose, it was even difficult for her to control her thoughts, thinking that Lance was warning and threatening her just now...

When Lance and the others ended the battle, Audrey followed him unconsciously, which also caused Amanda to sneer.

"Have you finally woken up? I think I can go out and sleep slowly. I don't need anyone here."

"Coward, traitor!" Boudica rarely participated in the fight between the two of them, but she always looked down on those guys who ran away from battle.

Even the innocent Boudica couldn't stand her, so one can imagine Audrey's reputation among the team.

Audrey looked ugly. Putting aside the facts, don’t you have any responsibility?

But now that her life was in the opponent's hands, Audrey could only endure silence no matter how unhappy she was.

"Okay, one more person will help more." Lance glanced at the visitor calmly, but it was just a glance.

He didn't know the reason why Audrey followed, and he didn't bother to understand.

Her role has been played out and she has lost her use. Then she is a tomb robber. If she can die here, maybe she can save herself some trouble.

"Let's go..."

It’s doubled on the last day. Please vote for me.
