Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Wern, the "senior warlock" of the Alchemy Academy, came to the church shortly after Bishop Fabian saw the picture of the obelisk.

After informing him of his identity, the cleric in charge of guidance in the church took Wern to the inner courtyard of the church and to the gate of the Holy Inquisition.

At this time, Anthony had already received arrangements from Priest Leonard, entertained Vern, and asked about his purpose.

"'Blood of Thorns'... is a monster of 'Blood of Thorns'!"

Wern looked panicked and described his previous experience with words and gestures:

"They suddenly appeared like this... hiss! One of our colleagues was torn into pieces! And then... boom! Even the crystal statue at the door of the obelisk was blown to pieces by them!"

While Wern was talking, Anthony was also looking at the other person.

At this time, "Senior Warlock" Wern was covered in blood.

His originally smooth warlock robe with azure patterns was cut into dozens of broken rips, revealing the horrific scars dripping with blood.

It is not difficult to see what kind of difficult situation Wern went through when he escaped from the alchemy courtyard obelisk.

Every time he spoke a word at this time, he had to take a few deep breaths, so that he could calm the increasingly chaotic spirituality in his body and not cause himself to suffer more serious internal injuries due to weakness.

"...the 'Alchemy Institute' is under fierce attack from the enemy! However, now, several of our 'generalists' are not here, and my colleagues are still resisting with difficulty."

"Originally, several colleagues tried to break out with me, but in the end, I was the only one who successfully escaped from that purgatory..."

"I ask for your assistance and ask the church to send the 'Holy Judges' to eliminate those cultists. Only in this way can we save the 'Alchemy Institute' and prevent this treasure house of knowledge from being completely destroyed by the enemies... "

"..."

"I understand." Anthony nodded.

Afterwards, Anthony followed what Leonard had told him before and said:

"This is the duty of our 'Holy Judge'. Friends from the Alchemy Academy, you can rest assured that we will go and judge those rampant cultists."

After calming Vern's mood, Anthony asked the clergyman to take Vern to rest and receive treatment from other clergymen in the church.

Afterwards, Anthony went straight to Priest Leonard's room, opened the door and walked in.

At this time, Leonard's room was unusually full of people, and without exception they were all clergymen.

Most of them are priests who have the same rank of "priest" as Leonard.

When they saw Anthony pushing open the door and entering, the faces of these priests all showed complicated expressions.

"Are the people from the Alchemy Institute here?" A middle-aged priest asked, "Anthony, is the situation they are encountering consistent with expectations?"

"...Yes." Anthony nodded, "Lord Calvigit. I have agreed to their request for assistance in accordance with Priest Leonard's instructions."

"Okay." An old and majestic voice came from behind Carl Weigit. It came from Leonard's unique and iconic voice:

"Anthony, you did a good job. I have already arranged for you to take the church's Holy Inquisitors and go to the Alchemy Academy obelisk now."

"Remember, your goal is not to completely annihilate them, but to quickly attack and kill their 'Body Destroyer' leader. After that, you must return quickly. The Sina City Church still needs you."

"..."

"I understand, Master Priest."

Anthony agreed, then turned and exited Priest Leonard's room.

…

After Anthony left, no one said anything in Leonard's room for a while.

There was a solemn atmosphere at the scene, with everyone frowning and thinking about something.

"...Leonard."

Calvigit suddenly smiled and broke the dusty silence: "I haven't seen Anthony for a long time. I feel like he has grown up."

"…People always grow, Calvigit."

Leonard sighed. His eyes then fell on the other side, an old man wearing a patriarchal robe, leaning against the wall and keeping silent.

"Now that Anthony has left with those children, I think everyone should have understood one thing."

Leonard said slowly: "Let them leave the church. This is to protect them. Because the enemies we will face later are not something that group of children can solve..."

"I think everyone here should understand this deeply. We are all people who have experienced the era of 'Holy War', especially Markis and I. We have all seen real suffering."

"So, everyone."

Leonard paused, and the expression on his face became more serious than ever before.

"Everyone should understand the terror of the 'Ancestral Bishop' of the original sect. Bishop Fabian is ready to fight, and we should also fulfill our duties."

Leonard's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp. He put his hands forward to form an equilateral triangle on his chest, and finally said to the "priests" and clergy present:

"——May the Holy Light be bathed forever and be with us for a moment."

…

…

When Luo Xiu returned to the church, he happened to meet Anthony and the others who were preparing to go to war.

Anthony took Connor, Pamier, and a dozen other Holy Judges whom Luo Xiu had only met a few times. When Anthony saw Luo Xiu, he greeted Luo Xiu from a distance.

But Anthony did not stop. He knew that Luo Xiu had Leonard's approval to act alone.

Therefore, Anthony just said "be careful" to Luo Xiu and continued towards the direction of the alchemy courtyard obelisk.

"...Anthony and the others are setting off. This means that the original sect and the 'Ancestral Spirit Bishop' are coming soon."

Luo Xiu pondered as he walked quickly towards the inner courtyard of the church.

At this time, all the ordinary clergymen in the church have been replaced by "holy judges" transferred from outside.

They still maintained the usual order in the church, but on this day, there were few believers in the church who came to worship.

Although everything seemed in order, there was an atmosphere of tension inside the church. Luo Xiu quickly crossed the path and came to the Holy Inquisition.

As soon as Anthony left, Luo Xiu came to Priest Leonard's room and gently opened the door.

The moment he opened the door, Luo Xiu saw many familiar faces from his previous life.

Three priests from the "Church of Sina City" actually gathered here. In addition, there were also elite extraordinary persons from various clergy, seeming to be discussing something important.

When Leonard saw Luo Xiu arriving, a surprised expression flashed across his face.

"Luo Xiu? Why are you coming back? You don't know the danger..."

Leonard was surprised, then shook his head.

"Forget it...since you're here, Luo Xiu."

Leonard sighed and said, "Okay, just look for something you can do."

"...But remember, when the enemy appears, even if you are a 'Son of Glory', you must not approach the 'Ancestral Spirit Bishop' of the original sect rashly! You must remember to never do anything beyond your ability."

"..."

"Okay." Luo Xiu nodded.

"Master Priest, I will pay attention."

"Please rest assured. I will never do anything beyond my capabilities."

"..."

…

When "Senior Warlock" Vern came to ask for help, Anthony led a group of Holy Judges to leave shortly after.

--boom! ! !

A shocking explosion broke the usual solemnity and silence in the church, and opened a huge gap in the side wall of the church.

Countless pagans in crimson cloaks filed in through this huge gap and threw various sealing media that had been prepared into the church.

The magic crystal as the sealing medium exploded the moment it touched something hard. A strange and ominous deep darkness suddenly filled the air from the fragments of the magic crystal, quickly filling every corner of the church.

Although many clergymen who were in the church had already made various preparations to meet the enemy, they did not expect that this group of pagans would break through the church wall and attack from a tricky direction!

But the priests stationed on the periphery quickly reacted and gave the heretics an effective counterattack!

For a moment, a dazzling golden light flashed instantly, and the light group containing the power of annihilation flew towards the invading pagans, and then a quite violent explosion occurred!

The battle between the "Primitive Sect" and the "Holy Court Church" began in an instant.

Countless crimson and golden rays of light intersected in one place, weaving into a curtain of light that exuded a terrifying aura. The men on both sides suffered casualties in an instant.

However, the pagans responsible for the temptation only have three levels of combat power, so this is not the main battlefield.

After a period of symbolic resistance, the "priests" retreated toward the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard of the church is the most important position!

As the clergy retreated, the pagans of the "original sect" moved deeper.

And just behind these pagans wearing crimson cloaks, there is an old man wearing a bishop's robe with gorgeous patterns and holding a staff with dark green light in his right hand. His eyes are calmly looking at and being watched by him. A big hole was blasted behind the wall.

"...There are no barriers and not much resistance."

"It's as expected... It seems that the plan of the 'Lord of Blood Sacrifice' can proceed smoothly."

The old man murmured, and he immediately took a step forward, and countless dark green wandering spirits suddenly emerged from his body and coiled around his side.

"Fabiang...heh. It's been a long time since we last met."

"..."

…

When the clergy in the hall all retreated to the inner courtyard, the pagans from the "original sect" followed closely into the depths of the church.

Priest Leonard, who was overlooking from a high place, was looking for the most dangerous figure.

After previous testing, Leonard already roughly knew the opponent's number and strength.

In addition to the "Lost" fifth-level destiny "Ancestral Spirit Bishop" who is bound to come, the original sect also sent three "four-level destiny" "high priests". Curse" and "Elemental" abilities.

At this time, the two "Patriarchs" of the church, Calvigit and Markis, had found the two [lost] high priests respectively, and had started an extremely fierce battle!

The last "high priest" of the other side followed the "ancestral bishop" and followed their bishop into the inner courtyard of the church.

When the biggest enemy appeared, Fabion, who was leaning on the scepter beside Leonard, slowly stood up from the imitation throne and pointed the scepter into the air.

"--The moment of supreme majesty, you preach all good, you punish all evil..."

Bishop Fabion began to pray loudly:

"--I pray for your attention, I pray for your grace, I pray for your listening..."

"--I pray for you to lower the 'cage of lightlessness'!"

"..."

As Fabion prayed, the bright sun light in the sky above the church gradually dimmed.

Then, including the entire glorious church, a large area of ​​space was shrouded by an invisible gauze.

The sarong blocked most of the light, and people could not see each other from the inside or from the outside; the sarong was an indestructible barrier, and people outside could not enter, and people inside could not escape.

The current "Glorious Church" has become a completely closed cage area.

This is one of the "authorities" that Bishop Fabian took over from Bishop Alfonso!

"...Okay."

After completing a prayer of using authority, Fabian's face suddenly became a little pale.

He coughed twice lightly, looking at the field, looking at the pagans who showed some panic at the sudden change.

"Now... it's time to fight to the death."

Bishop Fabian said slowly, and he walked slowly towards the field.

"'Lightless Cage'... Hehe. This is really a blasphemy against the 'Holy Light'..."

"Now, only if either of us, the 'Ancestor Bishop' or I, dies here, can we break this heavy cage."

"Leonard... I hope you can witness this scene."

Bishop Fabian's words were filled with a kind of calmness as if he was ready to die:

"If I die and cannot make the 'Ancestor Bishop' lose his ability to move before the final moment arrives..."

"Leonard, you take all the survivors and quickly flee from here, flee from Sina City..."

"..."

"I understand, Bishop."

Leonard's eyes dimmed, and he shook his head slightly, but he didn't say much after all.

He knew that there was an extraordinary feud between Bishop Fabian and the "Ancestor Bishop".

After Bishop Fabian finished explaining all this, he stepped into the mid-air.

He stepped into the air, and a translucent, golden long staircase appeared under his feet.

Fabian stepped onto the long steps extending downwards, looking calmly at the "Ancestor Bishop" wearing a gorgeous bishop's robe.

At the same time, Fabian raised his scepter high, and a bright golden light suddenly flashed on the scepter.

As the golden light became more and more dazzling, a huge annihilation light ball quickly condensed above the head of the "Ancestor Bishop" and fell heavily downward!

——Boom!!!

The deafening explosion sounded, and the entire church courtyard was shaken violently by this violent explosion!

The gravel was scattered, the golden light splashed, and the dust was filled.

This was the highest standard "greeting gift" that Bishop Fabian gave to the "Ancestor Bishop".

…
