Chapter 5 Socorro (5K chapter, please subscribe, please vote)

On the other side, Diogakas got a set of equipment from the Temple from somewhere and hid in the Temple.

This guy didn't look out of place wearing the equipment of the Temple.

After talking to the deputy leader, Klansha took Lin Yi to the inner hall of the Church.

Although there were only a few members of the Church left, the defense of the inner hall was still strict and heavily guarded.

If there was no Klansha's guidance, Lin Yi and Diogakas would have encountered great obstacles if they wanted to force their way in.

Klansha stood in front of a strange-shaped elevator, which was shaped like an iron cage, completely different from the common elevators.

This elevator was not powered by electricity, but by manpower.

"Open the door, I want to see His Majesty the Holy King."

Two soldiers of the Temple opened the elevator door for Klansha.

At the bottom of the cathedral, thousands of slaves toiled underground, and their existence was to drive the operation of this huge church.

Whenever someone needed to use the elevator, these slaves would start their arduous work, using manpower to make the elevator go up and down.

"Where are we going?" Lin Yi asked in confusion.

"To solve some potential problems." Klansha explained, "If there is a conflict with the Holy King later, the Templar Army will definitely become an obstacle for us."

Hearing Klansha's words, Lin Yi said nothing more, but just stood behind her silently, playing the role of a loser.

After the elevator slowly descended two floors, Klansha pressed the stop button, opened the door and took the lead.

Lin Yi followed closely and walked into a dim corridor.

"Klansha, you come here."

A bishop was quite puzzled when he saw Klansha, but before he could finish asking, Klansha pierced the other's heart with a sword.

The bishop widened his eyes and stared at Klansha in disbelief.

"Let's go. Not many people come to this floor on weekdays."

Lin Yi had put the hemp rope on his body into his personal space. He sensed the surroundings and found that this floor was very empty. There was only one person wailing in the distance.

Walking forward along the bright red carpet, Lin Yi and Klansha came to a room with enclosed spaces everywhere.

In the center of the room there was a huge red ceiling, and under the ceiling was a huge bed.

On the bed, a nun was tightly bound by heavy chains, and her arms were raised above her head in an extremely twisted posture.

The chains seemed particularly large and heavy compared to her thin body.

The nun's skin was engraved with dense holy marks, which intertwined and entangled in her flesh, just like the veins of another life.

Long-term torture caused the nun's body to be severely distorted.

Her face also became hideous and terrifying due to long-term suffering. The once clear eyes now only retained endless despair and resentment.

Lin Yi noticed that the original color of the bed in front of him should be white, and the original color can still be vaguely seen from the bed sheet at the foot of the bed.

Due to the blood, the bed has completely turned red.

"Socorro, I'm here."

Hearing the voice of Klansha, the monster in front of him, whose body was twisted by the pain miracle, slowly raised his head.

Although her body was no longer the same as before, her eyes could still see the shadow of the past.

She looked at Klansha with pleading eyes, begging Klansha to kill her.

The moment Socorro looked at Klansha, several holy seals on her body suddenly shone.

The next moment, Socorro's body had injuries of varying sizes, some of which were deep enough to see the bone, and some of which were bleeding profusely.

As the wounds appeared, a miracle power suddenly descended on Socorro.

This power repaired her wounds at an astonishing speed, and no matter how serious the injuries were, they were healed in the blink of an eye.

This healing ability is indeed magical, but it cannot cover up the pain that Socorro has endured.

A large amount of blood gushed out of Socorro's body, dyeing the bed red again.

In Lin Yi's perception, Socorro's life source has been polluted by the power of miracles, and the two are closely intertwined and difficult to separate.

Faced with this situation, even Lin Yi feels helpless.

Looking at the dying Socorro, Lin Yi stood in front of Socorro.

As if sensing something, Socorro raised her head with a weak breath, and the light in her eyes was extremely clear: kill her.

"I wish you don't come to this damn world again in your next life." Lin Yi said softly.

At the same time, his long sword had already pierced Socorro's chest.

As the power of the abyss eroded, Socorro felt that the power of miracles in his body was gradually dissipating.

The process of being eroded by the power of the abyss was extremely painful, but Socorro had been numb to the pain after experiencing countless tortures.

The holy seals on her body disappeared one by one, and the fire of life was about to go out.

At this moment, Socorro's face showed a smile of relief.

"Thank you." She said these two words with her last strength, and then her body began to drift away like a handful of yellow sand.

The source of Socorro's life was closely connected with the power of miracles. When the power of miracles disappeared, her life also came to an end.

[Kill the Sister of Pain, Socorro, and obtain 5.2% of the World Source. Now you have obtained 82% of the World Source in total]

[Obtain the Golden Treasure Box, Kindness. ]

At the moment when Socorro passed away, the Temple Army that was fighting in other parts of the continent noticed that something was wrong. The holy seals on them were invalid.

The reason why the Temple Army was able to suppress the rebels was largely due to the extraordinary abilities given by these holy seals.

On the battlefield, no matter what kind of damage they suffered, they could recover quickly in a short time, which made the Temple Army an almost invincible army.

But without the holy seal, the Temple Army was just a group of old soldiers.

Although the equipment of the Temple Army was relatively advanced, other rebels were not completely powerless.

After all, the number of the Temple Army was limited, and the Temple Army responsible for carrying out tasks in the outside world usually carried out tasks in small teams.

The cause of the battle was quite simple. The raging plague caused the civilians to be in dire straits.

The Church of Pain should be a place for civilians to seek hope and salvation, but it is closed at this moment.

What is even more infuriating is that the price of holy water is still rising.

This is not an official decision of the Church, but a choice made by some priests in private to seek huge profits, trying to make a fortune from this plague.

With the continuous increase of life pressure and the accumulation of dissatisfaction, the desperate civilians finally launched a riot.

And the place where this riot took place was the city that Lin Yi had visited.

With the assistance of the Licker Church, some civilians were able to recover and escape from the clutches of the god of death.

After experiencing life and death, they began to reflect deeply: Why do they work hard for those members of the Church of Pain who are usually idle and turn a blind eye to the suffering of the people?

Driven by this emotion, coupled with the instigation of some ambitious people, a large-scale rebellion finally broke out in the city.

As a symbol of power, the City Lord's Mansion was attacked first.

After learning of the outbreak of the plague, the city lord hurriedly fled to the summer resort with his servants and thirteen concubines, so the defense of the city lord's mansion was extremely weak and was quickly conquered by the rebels.

However, the arsenal in the city lord's mansion became the rebels' harvest.

With these sophisticated weapons, the rebels' strength increased rapidly. They advanced all the way and soon killed near the temple of the Pain Church.

At this moment, the Temple Army in the temple was fighting fiercely with the rebels.

The wound that just appeared on Socorro's body was caused by this battle.

Facing the well-equipped and high-spirited rebels, the Temple Army had extraordinary abilities, but they were gradually at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and weapons and equipment.

If it weren't for the Holy Seal, they would have died countless times.

But unfortunately, because Lin Yi cut off Socorro's connection with miracles, the painkillers and recovery potions that the Temple Army relied on instantly became ineffective.

The Holy Seal that originally gave them immortality has lost its effectiveness and become worthless.

These holy seals could not transfer injuries out of thin air, nor could they provide them with a continuous supply of vitality.

Because he did not notice the changes in the holy seals, an arrogant Templar soldier recklessly charged at the rebel army, and was chopped into meat paste by the rebels the next second.

The rebels looked at the fallen Templar soldiers and could not believe their eyes.

Just now, these Templar soldiers seemed to be assisted by God. No matter how they attacked, it seemed difficult to cause fatal damage to them. However, at this moment, the Templar soldier suddenly died just by being stabbed in the heart.

"They have lost the protection of the gods, and the gods can't stand their perverse behavior! Everyone, follow me to kill!" An ambitious man raised his arms and shouted, and his voice echoed over the battlefield.

All along, the actions of the Painful Church have made them dare not speak out, but now, they see the hope of overthrowing the rule of the Church.

"Sure enough, God can't stand it anymore?"

"Great, these guys should have died long ago."

Under the instigation of the ambitious, the surrounding rebels were like brainwashed, and the fear and worries in their hearts disappeared without a trace.

They were originally dissatisfied with the Church of Pain, but they didn't dare to express it before.

After the speech, the leader disappeared in the crowd, quietly came to a dark corner and took off the black veil on his face.

If Lin Yi could stand here, he would find that the leader was actually the vegetable stall owner that Lin Yi met.

The vegetable stall owner originally planned to go to the Church of Pain and exchange the gold coins he had saved for holy water to treat the two seriously ill children at home.

But the priest suddenly raised the price and caught him off guard.

Looking at the child wailing on the bed, the vegetable stall owner secretly contacted some vendors to incite the patients' families.

Unexpectedly, the effect was so significant that everyone didn't even say much, just said "Do you want to grab holy water?" The families of these patients automatically joined their team.

With a common goal, these people are fearless.

Even before they died, their only request was that the people around them bring holy water to their families.

This is also the only goal of their action this time. For the survival and hope of their families, they threw themselves into this battle without hesitation.

At present, the Temple Army near the temple is directly involved in a bitter struggle.

The Temple Army in this city has a total of 30 people per squadron. After all, this city is an important source of funds for the Church, so more people were allocated.

But at this moment, the number of rebels has exceeded 1,000. After losing the effect of the Holy Seal, the 30 Temple Army soldiers can only fight and retreat. They are about to retreat to the temple. The situation is extremely critical.

"Has the call for help been sent out?"

The captain of the Temple Army asked a soldier behind him while resisting the attack in front of him.

"The call for help has been sent out, Captain!" A soldier behind him responded, with a hint of anxiety and helplessness in his voice.

Their squadron has only 30 people in total, but they have to face more than 1,000 rebels. The pressure they are under can be imagined.

"It seems that riots have occurred in various cities now, and they can't spare any manpower." A soldier behind him is holding a crystal ball in his hand, which can contact other crystal balls.

But at this moment, there are shouts and shouts in the crystal ball, and it can be seen that the situation in other places is not much better.

"Damn it, what about the Church? Let them send out a large army to suppress it, otherwise the situation will be out of control." The captain of the Templar Army said anxiously, but before he finished speaking, a spear suddenly pierced his chest.

This sudden attack made him freeze instantly, and then several long knives pierced his body at the same time.

Under the crazy attack of the crowd, the captain was quickly chopped into meat paste.

At this moment, in the Church, the captain of the Templar Army in charge of communication was immersed in enjoyment.

He was lying on a velvet bed with two beauties in his arms, and he had no idea what was happening outside.

The other captains also lived a similarly extravagant life. They didn't take the rebellion outside seriously at all, and believed that those civilians could never be the opponents of the Templar Army.

The crystal ball used for communication had long been thrown into the warehouse and locked to avoid disturbing their lives.

At this moment, the crystal ball in the warehouse was glowing red, flashing a signal of crisis.

Few people came to this warehouse on weekdays, so no one noticed the abnormality here.

The corruption and indifference of the Church have undoubtedly exacerbated the chaotic situation outside, and the entire continent has fallen into an unprecedented crisis.

In the basement of the Cathedral of the Mother of All Mothers, Klansha knelt on the ground, clasped her hands together, and her lips trembled slightly. She was confessing for Socorro, hoping that she could go to Mount Heaven and gain eternal rest.

In Klansha's narration, Lin Yi also learned about Socorro's past.

Socorro was once the saint of the Church of Suffering. She had a pure and kind heart.

However, that kind of kindness that was ignorant of worldly affairs became the source of her pain under the strict rules of the Church.

When she witnessed the Templars torturing the pagans and betrayers in the Church, Socorro could not bear this cruel punishment, so she began to pray for these punished people.

According to the teachings of the Church of Suffering, she prayed to the gods to spare these people from suffering, and was even willing to replace their punishment with her own suffering.

Praying day and night finally ushered in the advent of miracles.

Originally, Socorro had a pure wish, hoping to relieve the pain of those who were punished through her own prayers.

However, she never thought that this starting point would trigger her personal nightmare.

After learning about the miracle that happened to Socorro, the Pain Church became very interested in her ability.

A bishop proposed that Socorro share the damage for the Templars, which not only provided a new "protection mechanism" for the Templars, but also happened to meet Socorro's deepest desire - to bear the pain for others.

This proposal was quickly unanimously agreed by all bishops and the Holy King.

Socorro was tightly bound underground by iron chains, and her body was engraved with dense holy seals, which became the link between her and the Templars.

From then on, Socorro became the "painkillers" and "recovery potions" of the Templars.

Under her blessing, the Templars gradually suppressed other forces on the continent, and were invincible.

The only price was that Socorro had to endure endless torture underground.

Whenever someone joins the Templars, the priest that Klansha saw just now will engrave a holy seal on Socorro's body.

And the priest that Lin Yi saw just now was the bishop who proposed this idea.

Because of this proposal, he was nominated as a cardinal by everyone.

His task is to take care of Socorro to prevent him from getting into trouble for other reasons.

But Klansha's sword caught him off guard, and he had no chance to send any distress signal.

"Let's go, it's time to go to the Holy King's Corridor."

Klansha finished praying for Socorro and stood up from the ground.

After witnessing the various bad deeds of the church, Klansha's idea of ​​overthrowing the Holy See became more and more determined.

The two of them are now located in the basement of the Cathedral of the Mother of All Mothers. As long as they reach the second floor and cross the corridor, they can meet the Holy King.

Klansha pressed the elevator button again. As the elevator slowly rose, she held the cross sword tightly in her hand and was ready for battle.

Of course, taking this opportunity, Lin Yi also summoned a few more soldiers from the Black Shadow Corps.

If other situations arise, these soldiers of the Shadow Corps can cover the rear of the two and delay time.

"Ultimate Halo."

"Chain of Life."

"Holy blessing."

After Lin Yi added the buff to Kelansha, Kelansha felt as if she had been reborn.

If the previous self was placed in front of her, the current Kelansha had the confidence to defeat the previous self within three seconds.

The two took the elevator to the top floor, and stepped out of the elevator and stepped onto a long corridor.

The corridor was full of paintings depicting the past glory of the Painful Church, each of which told the glory and glory of the Church.

Among these paintings, Lin Yi noticed the statues of the Mother of All Mothers and the Twisted Father carved on the stone pillars.

From the hands of these two stone statues, blood kept dripping and gathered in the pool below.

The strong smell of blood came to his nose, and Lin Yi immediately distinguished that all the blood was human blood.

Walking forward along the corridor, Lin Yi found that there was no figure in the corridor. After all, this was the Holy King Corridor, and ordinary members of the Church were not qualified to approach.

Only Kelansha, with her special status, could directly meet the Holy King, otherwise Lin Yi could only get here by breaking through the entire Church.

As the two continued to walk along the stairs, a familiar voice suddenly rang in Lin Yi's ears: "Blasphemer, I wish you success."

He turned his head suddenly and was surprised to find that the nun he met before killing Tepidade appeared in his sight.

In just a moment, the nun disappeared from his sight again.

"Did you hear it?" Lin Yi asked Klansha subconsciously.

"What?" Klansha turned her head in confusion, obviously not noticing the voice just now.

Lin Yi looked at Klansha, hesitated in his heart, and finally chose to remain silent and did not tell her about the nun.
