Chapter 680: Chapter 660 Gently awaken the sleeping soul
"Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
The man's roar eventually turned into a beast's roar.
A giant wolf about the size of two people leaped forward with a heavy sword in its mouth and flowing mane.
"Right now, target the right rear!"
Behind it, Li opened his eyes as wide as he could and stared at the "church bell ringer" who looked like an old man and was wrapped in gray cloth.
The moment the giant wolf heard her voice in his mind, he moved behind the bell ringer.
A strange white light radiated from a pair of narrow wolf eyes. The moment the bell ringer turned around and looked at him, his whole body stiffened for a moment.
The next moment, the giant wolf shook its head violently, and the sword chopped down heavily from top to bottom!
"Ha... Today's bells toll for the church..."
After the sword flashed, the bell ringer stood there in a daze for a moment, then slowly fell to the ground with gray blood spurting out of his body.
"Huh, huh..."
The giant wolf held the heavy sword in its mouth, standing there panting. After staring at the dead enemy with its glowing eyes for a few seconds, it looked up to the sky and let out a howl:
"Awoo—"
The giant wolf's body quickly shrank and turned back into the appearance of a human man.
Whitley looked down at his hands, unable to believe that he had actually retained basic sanity in his beastly state and successfully transformed back into human form.
"Crash!"
General Li threw the rags he had torn off the enemy in his direction. "I never thought you could kill him... the church bell ringer! He is one of the church's hidden top fighters."
Whitley threw the grey cloth over himself, using it as a cloak to cover his muscular body.
He first said: "We solved it together."
Then he turned his head to look in a certain direction and whispered, "But our combat power is really not worth mentioning in front of 'that person'..."
Li looked over as well.
The Cathedral of Ikaros stood quietly in front of them.
The outer wall made of branch reliefs has been damaged. Amid the rumbling vibrations, large sections of the wall are under a layer of faint white light barrier, enduring the relentless pressure of the ice crystal tree.
And around the church, the bodies of the White Knights, the bodies of the Qiming Tree Guards, and the bodies of the Glorious Qiming Guards, all retained their original army formations, and they were completely still on the ground!
——Among them, the figure of a skinny old man was particularly prominent. He was stuck on a tall icicle rising into the sky, like a flag.
While Whitley and Li were still fighting the bell ringer, You Huan had already dealt with the army of white knights, the Qiming Tree, and Bishop Aldridge, who led the guards, avenging the previous sneak attack! Before
his death, the bishop was still saying that his snow dust worms and ice dust worms were imitations of Bai Chen, and that this was another piece of evidence of his blasphemy against the gods.
And it turns out that his symbiotes are much cuter than Bai Chen.
The branches of the ice crystal tree are breaking through the white light barrier on the outside of the church one by one, and slowly wrapping around the main body of the church.
After easily dealing with the army blocking the road, You Huan personally entered the church.
After passing through the magnificent gate of Ikaros Church, his eyes moved slightly.
The vast extrasensory vision penetrated the building and saw a large number of entangled heat sources.
There's a fight going on inside the church!
——Archbishop Hewlett laughed and watched the head of an unwilling archbishop fall to the ground.
"Now is a critical moment for the church. You are stirring up internal strife at this time. Do you want to watch the church go to destruction and have no one to inherit God's glory?!"
The third archbishop, under the protection of his personal guards, stepped back step by step, stared at Hewlett and shouted.
"Haha, it's because the situation is critical. Now is a good time for me to take action."
Archbishop Hewlett just snorted and waved his hand. Several loyal killers immediately rushed forward and fought with the archbishop's guards.
Hewlett walked step by step towards the only surviving archbishop, playing with a few small balls in his left hand that looked like tangled branches.
You can vaguely see a round object inside the small ball, which is shaped like the fruit of the Qiming tree.
He approached step by step, and said at the same time: "At this moment, you are busy with external defense, and the internal defense is the most lax. This is the best time for me to launch an attack!"
"Matt, just go on your way without any worries. If I kill you, not only will the church not be in danger of being breached, on the contrary—"
He raised several tree branch balls in his left hand and gazed at them in ecstasy: "After I collect all of your 'Sacred Hearts of Zetassia', I will have enough power to resist external enemies."
"..." The only archbishop left besides him stared at the Sacred Heart of Zitasay in Hewlett's hand and stopped talking.
Because what Hewlett said was quite right, perhaps the power of the Sacred Heart can only be gathered together to fight against the incoming enemies.
If it were just in the hands of each archbishop...there's no way they would be willing to concentrate their power.
"...I can give you the Sacred Heart, and I will not compete with you for the position of Pope."
After a moment of silence, he spoke again, trying to fight for a chance to survive.
Hewlett didn't want to answer him, so he smiled and continued:
"As for the question of the inheritance of God's glory... Ever since the current pope plotted to murder the first pope - the 'first believer', the purity of the church has long been lost. When I become the pope, I will restore everything."
"It sounds nice, but you're just doing it for power—eh!"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The unfortunate archbishop's angry words turned into a short wail halfway through.
——The biting cold air rushed in from the corridor behind him like a group of snakes!
Both he and the men of the two archbishops who were fighting around him were frozen into terrified works of art.
Fortunately, before being frozen, a sacred heart fell out of the robe of the unfortunate bishop and rolled to Hewlett's feet.
He immediately bent down to pick up the Sacred Heart, then slowly stepped back, looking seriously at the white figure that came with the cold air.
The God of Ice and Snow, the moving natural disaster, the corpse beast lord who single-handedly wiped out more than 80% of the church's conventional combat power, was right in front of him!
When You Huan arrived here, he saw a lot of corpses lying on the ground.
It looked like a large-scale church infighting had just taken place here.
He raised his red eyes and looked at the only winner.
This is a tall and strong old man. Compared with the other archbishops who focus on decoration and authority, his clothes are simple and easy to move in. He looks like a neat and tidy man who can withstand a beating more easily.
When Li Yi, who followed him, saw the old man, he immediately called out his identity:
"This is... Archbishop Hewlett who is in charge of the White Knight Army!"
Hewlett saw her, then looked at Whitley who was silently guarding her, and snorted coldly:
"... Li, you really betrayed me. At that time, I said that I shouldn't give you so much freedom. You just need to be a good experiment subject. It's a pity that others didn't listen to my advice."
Li has come this far, experienced many ups and downs, and met a life that can be called a miracle. He didn't care at all what he said.
Her eyes quickly fell on Hewlett's left hand, and her eyes focused: "Lord, be careful, that is the 'Sacred Heart of Zitasai', it is said to be a holy object bestowed by God himself, which can release God's power!"
Hearing her words, You Huan also looked at the five strange little balls made of tree branches.
"...Ha." Hewlett sneered upon hearing this, and raised the Sacred Heart in his hand while backing away. "I realized it too late. God, please punish the many blasphemers in front of you!"
As he spoke, the five holy hearts burst out with dazzling white light!
Glowing branches shot out from the holy hearts one after another, and the omnipresent aggressive light blocked all of You Huan's space for action.
With several "dong dong" sounds, the white branches pierced the body of the snow-white corpse beast.
Seeing this, Hewlett's confidence increased sharply.
The Enlightenment Branches summoned by the Sacred Heart are much closer to the essence of God than ordinary Enlightenment Trees.
The church has conducted experiments and found that no matter how strong or tough a life is, its existence will be instantly erased under these branches and it will disappear from the world!
As he watched, the corpse of the beast that was pierced by the branches indeed disintegrated with a "bang".
But his smile faltered.
Why does this "disappearance" method seem different from what is described in the church documents?
The snowflakes that drifted into the church re-formed a silhouette behind him who was puzzled.
You Huan glanced at the dissipated fake body, stretched out his claws, and gently tapped Hewlett's back. (End of this chapter)
