Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

Bernadette was wearing an Intis-style women's shirt with large lace flowers on the collar, an indigo-patterned captain's coat, off-white trousers and knee-high boots, and a tricorn hat with feathers on her head. She looked like the leader of a pirate ship.

The emotions in her eyes surged for a moment, then subsided immediately. She smiled softly at Bonois who was looking at her calmly and said:

"Long time no see. This should be the first time we meet since my father passed away."

Bonova nodded silently, and spoke calmly as if he was talking to a stranger he knew but was not familiar with:

"The official reward for you has been mentioned as two thousand Felkins."

"And then? Are you going to capture me and ask the church of the 'God of Steam and Machinery' that you believe in for a reward?"

Bernadette asked back in a very calm tone.

"Not today." Bonois shook his head.

Bernadette chuckled and continued:

"What if I came here to stop you today?"

Bonois fell silent, just looking at Bernadette calmly, without saying anything or moving.

"Is that your answer?"

After a long while, Bernadette finally sighed. No one moved, and the two of them remained in a stalemate.

In the magnificent church with pitch-black stone pillars, the classical feather pen in Ince Zangwill's hand seemed to sense the crisis and flew up on its own, writing one word after another on the black clergy robe:

"Ouroboros, who has been watching the Pas River Valley on behalf of the True Creator, has given some unknown factors and happened to notice the abnormality here. Therefore, it is reasonable for Ouroboros to come here at this point in time!"

"Ouroboros' arrival broke the seal of the Church of Bones, allowing Al Tynes and Erihog, who had been waiting in Port Berens, to seize the opportunity and descend here."

As soon as the feather pen finished writing the first sentence, rays of light shone in from the stained glass high up in the church of bones, transforming into illusory layers of pure wings.

Under the wings, Ouroboros with long silver hair was outlined. He was wearing a torn linen robe, with a beautiful face and soft features. His eyes seemed a little dull and empty, and he held a strange crown covered with rust and blood in his hand.

The moment Ouroboros appeared, the red angel evil spirit in Ince Zangwill's body sensed the characteristics of the "conqueror", which was an unbearable temptation for it at the moment. The strong desire made it break free from the underworld in Ince Zangwill's body.

Ouroboros ignored Medici who had turned into an evil spirit. Under his feet and in the layers of wings behind him, mysterious circles appeared one after another, converging into a flowing silver river, connected head to tail like an Ouroboros.

The church of bones suddenly returned to its original state with dark stone pillars standing upright, and the square with starlight hanging around it was looming.

The evil spirit of Medici Soren Einhorn was also stuffed back into the body of Ince Zangwill.

The starlight in the square outside suddenly surged and poured into the Church of the Corpses like a tide.

Amid the twinkling stars, countless mysterious three-dimensional runes floated, outlining the image of a giant dragon.

The dragon lowered its huge and ferocious head and spewed out an invisible transparent breath.

This is the "breath of the mind" unique to the Mind Dragon, which is an enhanced version of the range-based mental piercing.

Starlight mixed with "breath of the soul" can directly stimulate and damage the mind and spirit bodies, making the attacked target feel as if struck by lightning, with the spirit torn apart and the spirit body pierced.

The colors around him became rich and layered. Ince Zangwill fell into a trance and his "spiritual world shuttle" was forced to stop.

Adam held the silver cross pendant in front of his chest with both hands, as if he was praying, and there was always a warm smile on his face. The starlight mixed with the "breath of the soul" did not affect him at all.

Another person who was not affected by the starlight was Ouroboros. He was incredibly lucky. The surging starlight always avoided his position due to various coincidences.

Amid the surging starlight, a cross hundreds of meters high fell from a height and stuck heavily in the center of the unformed church of bones.

Endless light burst out in an instant, drowning out the surging starlight and the figures lingering in the Church of Bones.

In an instant, the Church of Bones was reformed. In this church, every stone pillar, every arch, and every dome was inlaid with bones of different races. They were densely packed, and they stared at the people who appeared in this church with different eye holes.

On the walls, windows, and doors of the church, transparent and distorted faces stood out, as if the souls sealed here were isolated from the existence of the spiritual world and the astral world!

In front of the huge cross that fell from a height, a vague figure stood there, as if watching everything with pity.

At this moment, there were three more figures in the Church of Bones than before. They were Amon, who was wearing a neat tuxedo and a top hat, Renekton, who was wearing a black classical wizard robe and holding a miniature golden kettle-style oil lamp in his hand, and Erihog, who was transformed into an old man in a gray and white robe with long dark golden hair and beard.

Ince Zangwill's expression was twisted in pain, and crimson blood continued to seep out of his body. The evil spirit of Medici Soren Einhorn once again forcibly broke free from the underworld in his body and peeled away from him bit by bit.

The evil spirit had a ferocious expression on its face, and a scarlet crack appeared on each cheek, like two new mouths.

The three mouths kept opening and closing, and a hoarse and uncontrollable voice said:

"I smell iron and blood, Orochi, give me the trait of 'Conqueror'."

“As long as I can recover my Sequence One strength, we can cooperate with that eye monster and the lizard monster to kill Amon and Adam together.”

As he spoke, the classical feather pen that Ince Zangwill was holding tightly in his hand broke free and flew towards Erehog.

The feather pen suddenly disappeared in mid-air and then appeared in Amon's hand.

"You all seem to want this pen, why don't you make me an offer and the highest bidder gets it?"

While Amon was teasing everyone, he tightened his right hand and exerted a little force, and the quill that was struggling in his hand stopped moving instantly.

Silently, the Bone Cathedral was once again shrouded in a layer of hazy starlight, completely obscuring the figures of Renekton, Ouroboros, Erehog and Ince Zangwill.

At the same time, eyes began to grow out of the cracks and starlight, exuding auras of madness, disaster, and ominousness, confronting the Church of Bones.

In the dim starlight, a gray-white dragon figure appeared.

The gray-white scales on his surface were engraved with complex and three-dimensional mysterious symbols, extending into his flesh and blood and outward to the surrounding void, as if intertwined into something that did not belong to the real world. Just seeing it would make people mentally confused, their thoughts distorted, and their spirits tainted with all kinds of thoughts that seemed to come from the heart, making them wish to tear themselves apart or destroy themselves.

Silvery-white light burst out simultaneously among the hazy starlight, invading the skulls and sealed souls embedded around the Church of the Corpses from different directions and angles, causing intense chaos.

This is chaos caused by turmoil at the level of destiny, which is difficult to prevent and end.

This chaos caused loopholes in the Church of the Bones' closure of the astral and spiritual realms, and under the observation and analysis of the "Eye of Mysteries", this loophole was exploited by Renekton.

Around him, stars emerged one after another, densely packed and dazzling.

These stars cast one brilliant ray after another, which merged into a magnificent pillar of light, covering the entire Church of the Corpses, disintegrating and shattering it bit by bit.

A pale golden vertical pupil suddenly appeared in front of Amon, and an invisible mental storm swept around him, causing Amon to fall into a state of trance for a short time.

Adam looked in the direction of Amon but did not move. Around him, a long silver river connected end to end, trapping him in the middle, forming a wonderful cycle of fate.

Ouroboros was constantly reinforcing and changing the cycle of fate, making it difficult for him to break out for the time being.

Taking advantage of this brief stalemate, Renekton rubbed the golden kettle-shaped wishing lamp in his right hand and said softly:

"Let 0-08 return to Eri Hogg."

Golden water overflowed from the mouth of the pot and gathered in the air to form a golden distorted human figure.

The lamp god floated in the air, looking around as if he was watching a show, and then he looked down at Renekton and said calmly:

“This is the first wish!”

After saying this, He looked at Amon and Erihog who were fighting on the spiritual level, stretched out one hand, and grabbed it forcefully in mid-air.

Amon raised the monocle on his right eye and turned his head to look at the genie, trying to steal his thoughts and actions.

His theft failed as expected, but the Djinn's attempt to transfer 0-08 to Erihog also failed.

Amon cheated the rules and switched positions, allowing 0-08 to appear again in the hands of Ince Zangwill.

Having regained 0-08, Ince Zangwill wrote a new line of words on his black clergy robe without any hesitation:

"Al Tynes and Ouroboros destroyed the Church of Bones, making it incomplete. Ince Zangwill happened to be on a 'missing spot'. Because of the mutual restraint, no one noticed this small detail. Ince Zangwill crashed out of the Church of Bones with force and escaped from the center of the storm with 0-08. This is a very reasonable development!"

At the moment when the final exclamation mark fell, Ince Zangwill's body spontaneously crashed into the stained glass window beside him.

Silently, the glass window shattered and cracked, and a howling cold wind swept Ince Zangwill out of the Church of Bones.
