Soul Echo

After shouting that sound, Savage Bishop couldn't hold back any longer and coughed up dark blood.

Blood sprayed on the clothes, and the scene in front of me started to get fuzzy.

"My lord!" the clergy next to him exclaimed.

But more people turned their attention to the square, and Savage Bishop's shout just touched a nerve in all of them.

'Abyss', a word that sounds unremarkable at first glance, but actually represents boundless terror is the 'sensitive point' of all clergy. As long as they hear this word, any cleric will have stress response.

Either by the teachings and immersion of the senior, or the horrible to see from the scriptures, all clergy are exposed to things related to the 'abyss' during their apprenticeships, when they become official priests After the personnel, they will be directly taught by the instructor, telling them how terrifying the 'abyss' is.

Like now, almost everyone looked at the square and evacuated to the outside in an orderly manner.

—this is the quality of a trained clergyman!

Apologetics Knight and Paladin, who were guarding around the square, moved inward, as they were armed and equipped with armor.

The people lying on the square stood up one after another, and they also underwent the same changes as Number One Person.

The power of the abyss is transmitted from the source of faith, infecting the soul of every believer, and as the soul is distorted, their bodies are also changing.

Muscle agitation, skeleton deformation, their appearance is gradually detaching from the 'human form' and moving closer to the 'devil'.

The devotees of the Healing God took Savage bishop their three people into the temple, and before the gates closed, they saw the cultists roaring and turning around and lunging at the Paladins.

The battle begins!

…………

Lilian was not involved in the mission, she was worried about Zhong Ye.

If nothing else, he's fighting a false god.

And the 'pseudo-god' of this time is not the inferior product of the witch in that small town, it is a genius, already has a lot of beliefs, and is not far from the real Spiritual God' Pseudo-god'.

As well as being a 'false god', Adrian is also a Legendary mage.

Although Zhong Ye is impossible to act alone, not to face Adrian alone, Lilian still feels a little worried.

The beam of light reaching the sky just now, and the earthquake that followed, because it felt too real, Lilian couldn't help but trembling in fear, and after being shocked, she couldn't help but think of Zhong Ye.

Zhong Ye is most likely on that battlefield, fighting the enemy.

Although Zhong Ye is only an NPC in the game "Soul Echo", to Lilian, he is not only as simple as an 'electronic program', but more like a father who has been absent from her first half of her life— —If she had a father, it would definitely be like Zhong Ye!

She didn't listen to the barrage's persuasion at all, and even thought they were annoying.

Lilian turned off the barrage and walked aimlessly on the street with the purse and the scattered crowd.

As she walked, she saw someone suddenly fall down, and more than one.

One of those people fell down beside her. She had a good chat with her companions just now, and she fell down without any warning.

Because standing aside, Lillian could see clearly, the man was not in a coma, his eyes were not closed, but his eyes were blurred and his breathing was short.

Why is this state so similar...

Lilian was stunned, turned her head and looked towards the other people who suddenly fell to the ground.

None was comatose, but neither was conscious.

"That's them?"

"Yes, it's them."

Several players standing on the side of the road pointing fingers at those who fell, this Only then did Lillian realize that these guys who suddenly fell were their mission targets.

All of these people have used hallucinogens?

If so, why did they suddenly fall?

Lilian couldn't help but wonder, she had been by Zhong Ye's side for so long and experienced many incidents, and she immediately smelled a bit of a 'conspiracy' from it.

Put the purse into the small backpack that you carry with you, press it on the bottom layer, and then quietly hold down the saber.

Those players discussed it and came over to drag the fallen people away and take them to the church area to collect rewards. Sure enough, there was a dispute with the fallen people's companions.

At this moment, a person who fell to the ground suddenly staggered to his feet, and his actions directly triggered the siren in Lily's heart.

She saw that there was something wriggling under the person's clothes, and the wriggling thing slowly climbed up, from the back to the shoulders, and then to the neck...not under the clothes, but under the skin!

Lilian saw that the man's neck bulged, and the people around screamed and spread out.

"Get out of the way!"

Lilian immediately drew her rapier and let out a shout.

She walks lightly, shuttles through the crowd, and emerges more and more after passing through many obstacles.

But at this time, the body swelled in a circle, and the fallen man whose skin swelled into pink turned his head strangely, looking towards Lillian.

Lilian squeezed the hilt of the sword tightly, clenched her teeth, and rushed forward without hesitation.

The light sword swayed, reflecting the cold light blossoming, and under the gaze of everyone, it stabbed into the man's throat.

'He' should have died, but this guy not only didn't die and screamed, his face turned red, his eyes sparkled, and his excitement exhibited one's feelings in one's speech.

Seeing 'he' raised his hand to grab it, Lillian immediately twisted her wrist and cut the guy's neck in half.

However, 'he' stumbled while coughing blood, with a bright smile on his face. This strange scene sent chills in the hearts of all onlookers.

After walking two steps, the man finally fell down, but 'he' did not die completely, his body continued to move, his palms clawed on the ground, and he wanted to crawl forward...

"Cultists!"

Lilian raised her head suddenly, looking towards the positions of the other fallen people.

People followed her gaze and found in horror that there were still a few guys standing here who looked nothing like the person just now.

Fear rises and panic spreads.

"Ah!"

Someone screamed and turned to run.

Someone pushed the crowd away and tried to get closer.

"Don't come near me!"

"Don't push! Don't push!"

"Fuck off! I'm going over!"

Before the cultists attacked, the streets were chaotic. Among them, the players who had already been gearing up for a long time shouted, pulled out their weapons and rushed over, adding a fire to the powder keg.

The cultists laughed, and several of them turned and threw themselves at the passers-by, either raising their fists to beat them, or ripping off their clothes.

More cultists and players fought on the street. They didn't care about outsiders at all, causing nearly ten casualties in just five seconds - there were players, and there were evil. Christians and pedestrians.

Lilian clenched her rapier, furious.

"Enough!"

She squeezed through the crowd, wielded her rapier, and stabbed the cultist who was fighting the player one after another without hurting anyone else. Then head straight for the cultists who are assaulting or beating passersby.

After dealing with these guys, Lillian turned her head to stare at the disgruntled players, "Look at what you guys have done? Don't you know how to pull back when you fight?"

None of the pedestrians who were affected by the battle died. They screamed in pain and screamed directly into Lilian's heart.

The players who were accused by Lillian felt a little uncomfortable when they heard these screams, because it was too real, but they were more angry.

The left and right are just a group of NPCs. If they die, they will die. What's there to scold?

But they failed to quarrel with Lillian, Lillian just stared at them and made them all shut their mouths.

lightly snorted, the players turned and left, Lilian also put away the light sword, and called some people to help her take the injured to the adventurer's house, which should be the safest place in the lower city now.

However, how could this change occur in those who have used hallucinogens?

This is a standard change, only for cultists who believe in the abyss Evil God... Could it be that something happened 'over there'?

Thinking of this, Lillian couldn't help but turn her head and looked towards the direction where the beam of light was rising, her eyes filled with worry.

…………

[…Meet again. ]

A soft voice sounded in Zhong Ye's heart, causing his eyes to focus on Adrian.

The corpse that was broken into two halves turned into sand and dust. The dust did not drift away with the wind, but spiraled upward and re-condensed into a body in the air.

The first thing that condensed was the face - I saw, the corners of the mouth cocked up before the eyes were opened.

【Cheers! Celebrate! ]

[With your cheers and praise—]

As the eyes slowly opened, the rest of the body gradually took shape.

【——Welcome to my arrival! ]
