Oops, I became the witch's substitute

"roll!!!"

As the intelligence officer rolled and crawled, the bishop began to command the defense of the excavation site to be strengthened. Unfortunately, this was meaningless in front of the serious lurkers.

Filin, Enil, and Orfa poked their heads out from behind the rocks one after another.

Feilin introduced: "Yes, this is the excavation site. The area around the mine has been completely blocked. There is only one way in and out. There are seven checkpoints. The miners have all been marked with stigmata. They cannot speak, see, or hear."

Orfa was amazed: "The miners' vision is sealed. How do they work?"

Enil looked at him with contempt: "You have no idea about divine arts, right? In the eyes of these miners, except for the work site, everything else is white."

Olufa didn't care about other people's contempt and touched Filin with his shoulder: "How about it, little brother, is there a way to sneak in?"

Feilin glanced at Orfa with disdain on his face. "It's no problem for me to sneak in with Enil, but you're a little too big. People who know you will know that you are a magician, while those who don't will think you are a berserker."

Orfa shrugged. "You two are really mean. Of course, I don't care. I just want to ask one question. Can we dig out something from the star beast if we sneak in now?"

Enil said impatiently, "The Count's Alzheimer's disease has been passed down to you, right? Didn't you read the briefing? Bahamut's body is wrapped in a huge moon. You want us to sneak in and pick up the manuscript with the miners, right?"

Orfa stroked his chin and said, "This sect has been digging here for quite a while, but there is no real progress. By the way, let's investigate the flow of magic power first. Maybe we can find another entrance."

Filin and Enil no longer mocked him. At least this suggestion was correct. The three of them began to investigate the branches of the earth veins and came to a strange conclusion after half a day.

Enil was the first to speak: "Is this an illusion? This was a barren land before, but now the earth veins from all directions converge here."

Although Orfa was a bit stubborn, his magic skills were not bad. He noticed: "The change of the earth veins was man-made. At least half a year ago, this place was bombarded by pure magic, which forcibly changed the flow of the earth veins. The earth veins would have recovered over time, but the incident awakened the sleeping Bahamut, forming a magic siphon, causing the magic of the earth veins in all directions to gather."

At this point, Orfa pointed at the mine and gestured twice: "I don't know if you have heard of this rumor, but star beasts don't actually have a fixed appearance. They often take on forms that humans fear."

Enier thought and said, "Based on the family's records of conquering, this rule can barely be established. The star beasts conquered in each region will correspond to the local myths and legends."

Jiuwu Mountain is famous for its wine.

Feilin thought about his plan again and again, and asked tentatively: "Does this mean that the birth of star beasts will be interfered with by humans?"

Enier sneered: "That's right, capturing immature star beasts, interfering with their growth, and turning them into tools exclusively for the family, this is also one of the Earl's plans."

Orfa clenched his fists and said, "That's enough, you two. Don't discuss this topic in front of me. It's troublesome to listen to. I have to write more than a dozen academic reports in the family every year. Do I have to help you analyze the reasons for the formation of star beasts after they come out? Don't go too far!"

Filin and Enil looked at Orufa and said, "Well, don't you just want to empty your brain and be lazy?"

Chapter 87 Brave

Even in this world, the Order of St. Arius is a very special and explosive sect.

Regarding religion, the world must first clarify a basic core, that is, there is a true God. The true God exists in many forms. They may be like a powerful person, or a concept, or a beam of light or a belief. From the results, the proportion of true God being a personal God is slightly higher.

After all, normal people don’t believe in noodles flying in the sky, even though that would be really cool.

Like most sects, St. Arius also has his own god, but their god does not seem to care about so-called faith.

"I don't want you to believe in me, and I won't pay attention to any of you. No matter what disaster you encounter, I won't lend a hand. We have no concerns."

This is what a certain god who wishes to remain anonymous and has black bars where his eyes should be said.

The meaning of his existence is simply to wander around this area day after day, but at some special times, he is inexplicably believed in by mortals.

The gods themselves are troubled by this.

"I do not love the world. I am neither merciful nor punitive. I am a resident of this planet just like you. Stop pestering me."

Despite what the god said, stories about his teachings and non-existence continued to emerge, and over time, the sect grew and became a country.

"I think I understand. You don't care whether there are gods or not. All humans care about is raising a flag so that more and more people will gather and protect each other."

This is the Holy Kingdom of Arianism. After many hardships, they finally established the country. They developed and grew with humanism as the core and became one of the leaders in the surrounding areas.

Above, Filin and the other two reviewed the history of St. Arius.

Enil crossed his arms and said uncertainly, "That's what the documents record, but the Holy Nation of Arius is also a country that has encountered the Falling Star Beast and has not yet been destroyed. Will their gods really not take action?"

Orufa sneered, "Are you an idiot? The documents are very clear. Although the god doesn't care about the development of the church, this area may be his territory and his home. If there is a big bug in your house, would you fight it?"

奺50180909

Feilin hugged the angry Enier and said, "Alright, alright. There is no sign of the Star Beast awakening yet. We just need to monitor it and report the news to the family in time."

This is indeed the case. Even if Film is just an illusion, he doesn't want to waste labor here. He has more important things to do.

"Eniel, Orufa, you guys stay nearby and keep watch. I will infiltrate their internal organization to investigate personally." Filin planned to leave quickly. He felt that staying with Orufa would lower his intelligence. Another option was to look for scholars in the church and see if he could pass on false information.

As Filin left, Orfa couldn't help but narrow his eyes and looked at Filin's back thoughtfully.

"I warn you not to have any inappropriate thoughts." Enil glanced at his nominal elder brother and said in a cold tone.

As soon as the film disappeared, the temperature at the scene dropped by several degrees.

Orfa chuckled. "Then you should hide your thoughts. You are not shy about it in front of me. Don't you think it's deliberate? You are the ones who should be warned. Do you really think you can defy that guy's power? You don't... well, not necessarily."

Enil was slightly stunned: "What?"

Orfa held his chin and said, "Filin's power is even more bizarre than I imagined. He is clearly standing in front of me, but my pupils cannot reflect his figure. What kind of power is the gift of deception? Although it is not as refined as mine, his power must have undergone quite harsh training to form a unique system. It's a pity that he doesn't know..."

Enil sighed and said, "You can't even utter a complete sentence. Are you seriously ill?"

Orfa opened his arms, bent over and approached Enil, pointing at his eyes: "Hahahahaha! Unlike Filin, you have been receiving a complete education in the family, but you have never reached our field. You don't understand what kind of scenery we see. But this is also Filin's shortcoming. The experience left by the ancestors is precious knowledge, but he was unable to systematically learn this knowledge due to personal reasons. Looking at his leisurely appearance, I'm afraid he doesn't even know that his abilities are beginning to get out of control, right?"

Enil gritted his teeth and said, "You mean out of control?"

Orfa slapped his chest loudly and said confidently, "Magic is a force full of imagination. It can be a pile of gunpowder, and we are like children playing with dynamite. Ha↘ha↗ha↘! But my little sister, that day is coming soon. When you feel that the power is out of control, don't rush around recklessly. If you die because of this, I will carve mocking advice on your tombstone."

The main reason why mages need to study is to learn from past experience and understand how to use their power so as to avoid accidentally falling into the textbook someday.

Currently, many countries have conducted extensive research on the stage from ordinary people to transcenders. Apprentices can find past experience for the various troubles and dangers they encounter in their promotions, but the road after transcending is still full of dangers, not to mention the knowledge after becoming a hero. Even large families with a long history cannot say that they have inherited a percentage of these experiences.

Therefore, this also highlights the power of the deity. Each deity is unique. They are the strongest people who grasp the unknown power of mankind in their hands and use it skillfully.

Filin vaguely felt that the birth of Bahamut this time was interfered with by external factors.

It can be probably considered that star beasts are formless wild beasts from outer space. After they land, they are influenced by the local environment and become what people imagine them to be.

Now, because of his deceitful talent, he vaguely interfered with this process, had his own thoughts, spread rumors, and made up reasoning. In the end, most people believed that Bahamut was like that, so the star beast Bahamut came into being.

It started out as false interference, but eventually became a concept understood by the world, and eventually became a real entity.

"Now I have to confirm one last thing, whether my magic power has flowed here..." The current Filin is actually a clone. As the power of deception itself, it is easy for him to deceive the church guards and sneak into the underground space.

This is not because Filin is ridiculously strong, but simply because his unique deception power is unknown, just like writing a separate plug-in that is not recognized. Well, this frame is cool, right?

After Film sneaked into the abandoned mine, today was different from the past. The environment under the mine had changed. The surface of the moon wrapped around Bahamut appeared with criss-crossing textures, and red magic power flowed through it. The total amount of this magic power made Film amazed. The sum of the surface power alone surpassed that of the water priestess.

Even elves would not absorb the magic power of the earth veins so unrestrainedly, and it is even more rare for the earth veins to gather from all directions.

Filin focused his consciousness, probably to the extent of letting Fili take a nap over there, and mainly put his hand on the surface of the moon, trying to feel the internal space.

The next second, the reality around Film seemed to disappear, and he was floating alone in a pitch-black world without sky, earth or direction. As he was looking around, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly opened behind him, and then a monster opened its mouth and swallowed him.

"Ouch!" Philin felt a headache and quickly let go of his hand. The bite almost made him cry out.

The magic power was devoured, and the consciousness in Wei Yue harbored great malice towards humans.

However, through this kind of contact, Philin also discovered that this star beast really possessed his magic power, and they could clearly sense each other's presence.

"Is that so? He has ill intentions towards humans. He seems like a guy that you don't want to mess with."

Suddenly, someone's voice was heard beside Feilin. The voice was clear as water and very calm. It seemed that someone had noticed Feilin's presence but had no intention of making it public.

"Hello, I'm Alex, one of the brave warriors of Saint Arius."

The young man who claimed to be a hero was dressed very simply and looked like an ordinary person. He did not have any decorations that showed his identity, and even his sword was an ordinary steel sword.

Unlike the imagined arrogance of the clergy, he has an unprecedented sense of justice. This kind of person looks dangerous. He is an idealist who has a firm belief in victory and is always ready to sacrifice his life.

But fortunately, it’s a big help that he’s not the kind of brave man who comes straight at me with “friendship, hope and justice” in his heart.

Feilin glanced at the hero. Since he was a clone, he was no longer on guard. "I'm Feilin, an adventurer who makes a living."

Alex didn't continue talking, but stood in front of Wei Yue, also reached out and touched it, then looked up regretfully, having no idea what to do with this huge creature.

Feilin also ignored him and began to study other magic on Wei Yue.

"If you were an ordinary adventurer, you wouldn't be able to sneak into a place like this." Alex lowered his head and looked at his palm. "They said this is a device used by the ancient kingdom to seal star beasts. There is a terrifying monster sleeping inside. Once it is released, it will inevitably cause a huge disaster, right?"

Feilin said indifferently: "Yes, but this is also the choice of the bigwigs above you. But don't worry, this Wei Yue can still seal the star beast for the time being."

Alex muttered to himself, then smiled softly, "For now? The ancients were really troublesome. They must have believed in the wisdom of later generations and sealed the star beasts at that time casually."

Feilin shrugged. He had no hostility towards such a hero. He was quite easy to talk to. "That's the truth. The seal will fail sooner or later. The star beast will come out. You have to make plans for the future."

Save Wu Ling Yiba Mio Jiuling Wine

Alex looked at Filin and said, "The big shots above won't understand. How many people working in this mining area would survive? By the way, Mr. Filin, do you know what kind of monster this is?"

Filin immediately threw out the prepared answer: "Bahamut of Disaster. The news about it has spread everywhere. People in the surrounding areas are very worried."

Alex's face was full of worry, and he looked at Wei Yue with a slightly exaggerated expression: "Such a big monster, when it breaks the seal, can I resist it? Or how long can I resist it..."

Filin didn't comment. Just then, a patrol team approached from a distance, and Alex immediately pointed in the direction of the exit.

"You better run. This place is not friendly to you free men."

"Why didn't you expose me?"

"More friends are worse than more enemies." Alex knocked on the surface of the moon again. "Besides, I have a feeling that we may not be able to deal with this big guy alone. I hope you civilians can provide more help then."

Despite saying this, there wasn't much worry in his tone, as if he was just doing something as a matter of course.

Filin was somewhat surprised. Although he had a bad impression of the Order of St. Arius, Alex was not an annoying person.

A brave man? Maybe this title is more than just lip service.

Just as Film was hidden in the darkness, Wei Yue suddenly shook violently. The vibration quickly spread to the entire excavation site. The mine was shaking and Wei Yue was also moving slowly.

Chapter 88: Heaven and Earth Shake

"Found it, found it! This document records the existence of the ancient kingdom. During the thousands of years of barbarism, they regarded the beast from the falling star as a miracle. However, the capital was razed to the ground in an instant. The people at that time were unable to kill it, so they begged our God to seal it. Ah, our God knows about this!"

In the library of the Arian Church, scholars opened cabinets that were stored for more than three thousand years before finding a few documents.

"Using the sky as shackles, the earth as a cage, and the flesh and blood of the victims as shackles, the star beasts are sealed underground. That huge sphere is a device to extract the magic power of the star beasts. The magic power is extracted to nourish this land and create our glory today."

"Are there any records about star beasts?"

"I'm looking for it, looking for it..."

Before he finished speaking, the entire Holy Kingdom of Arius felt a slight vibration. The magic power from thousands of miles away pushed the white clouds in the sky, and after a moment, it turned into a strong wind that swept over.

If the documents are correct, then it proves that there is indeed a sleeping star beast deep in the abandoned mine, and its history has been deliberately hidden. Moreover, in reality, the miners may not be able to see it even if they dig a few hundred meters deeper.

The church scholars began to rummage through boxes and cabinets, trying to find more clues about the star beast. No one noticed that one of the scholars slowly walked out of the room, took off his glasses, and looked into the distance.

There were many doubts and puzzles in his eyes. He didn't recognize this old account, and he even suspected that he had Alzheimer's disease due to his age.

He only learned about the revival of the underground star beast recently. When he first noticed someone violently bombarding deep into the mine, he didn't care. After all, it was the things he buried, and they could only be found by lifting the earth's crust. Mere humans could not discover them. Secondly, he felt something unusual, but believed in past experience that such a sturdy device could not have problems. Thirdly, the church actually claimed to have dug up the device, and he felt that some strategies should be adopted. However, after all, these were the star beasts that could not be completely killed back then, and he was powerless and could only silently guide human wisdom. Now, with this irregular magical impact, he regretted it a little. How could he allow others to sleep soundly under his bed? Maybe he should have taken action at the first moment, but it was too late now.

There were a lot of footsteps in the corridor, and soon several scholars or assistants came in carrying a large number of manuscripts.

"Please take a look at this information. It was collected by our spies. It has been widely circulated outside. The device that appeared under the abandoned mine is called the Moon Guard. It is a huge device used by ancient people to seal star beasts. The star beast sealed is called Bahamut. It mimics the appearance of a dragon and has the power of a doomsday disaster. The witches also believe this."

"What is the basis?"

"The most reliable statement is the word of mouth of the elder witch. The specific source is still being investigated..."

“Is there still time to investigate!!!”

Hearing these arguments, the scholar who took off his glasses held his forehead with his hand and felt a headache. There may be many examples of human shortcomings, but the most fatal one may be the issue of life span.

The accumulation of magic technology will eventually reach the limit of lifespan. Human babies start learning from the womb and will never be able to learn all the basic theories until they die. The limitation of lifespan also makes it difficult to preserve history, and the remaining documents will always be distorted.

But he had to analyze each case specifically. He silently sensed the scene and had to ask, "Is this photo of you?" The unearthed moon and star beasts were very different from what he remembered.

"This land is really full of disasters. If my cradle wasn't here, I would really want to leave."

Then, no one noticed that someone was missing from the house.

At the border, under an abandoned mine, Wei Yue continued to release magic power and began to float up. The abandoned mine collapsed under the brute force, but fortunately the structure of the mine was supported by divine magic. Hundreds of priests actively organized the miners to escape, barely allowing people to save their lives.

But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, an even more violent earthquake caused the sky to collapse and the earth to split. The mine collapsed inward, and high temperatures began to radiate from the center. Rocks melted, magma overflowed, and the dark surface of the moon was crisscrossed with red textures, and heat rose.

Thousands of clergy gathered around and chanted prayers together. The choir's singing formed thousands of blue chains in the sky, restraining Wei Yue with maximum force and suppressing the release of magic power.
