The bone of sin domain is king

Chapter 107 No.40 Act Two. The Ceremony
Rosen stood in a cloud of smoke and dust, and the radiance from the silver bell held in his right hand was gradually dimming. The elements in the air had never been so dense, and he could almost see the aggregation and dispersion of these free elements.

The prayer hall was now beyond recognition.

The stained glass with religious meaning has long been broken, the white walls have been stained with scorched black marks, and the ground is uneven. With Rosen as the center, the traces of the flames spread out radially. The burnt-smelling meat was trembling slightly.

Oops, it seems a bit over the top.

Rosen secretly groaned in his heart.

After using up the three sunshine guns stored in the Holy Bell of Griffith at once, Rosen consumed almost one-third of the remaining mana.

In fact, when the second Sunshine Spear fell on Joseph, the monster was already almost dead. However, Rosen knew the importance of last-ditch strikes and did not take the risk to kill the opponent with his sword in person. Instead, he directly and violently killed the opponent with a sword. Throw out the third Sunshine Spear.

Until the end, Joseph couldn't believe that he was actually killed like this. Compared with Rosen's feint attack tactics that saw through his own flaws, he was even more inconceivable about Rosen's Sunshine Spear.

Rosen was also thankful that the Sunshine Spear did not have any additional damage bonus to the undead. Apart from the burning sensation at the beginning, the next two shots had almost no side effects, and it was quite easy to use.

The high temperature evaporated almost all the blood in the hall, and even the remains of those priests and synthetic beasts were baked into a deep black.

That large mass of wriggling flesh was Joseph, or the remains of the monster that had been Joseph.

Rosen slowly swung his sword, and the red flame ignited, burning the mass of flesh. Joseph's mutilated body could be seen inside. His lower body seemed to be supported by machinery. Rosen couldn't help but think of Grande. you.

It seems that the Holy Church is really keen on human body modification.

Putting away the Griffith Holy Bell, Rosen thought that most of his hole cards had been used up in this move, and if he still encountered any powerful enemies next, he would have to make the last effort.

His mental energy was released, and all the perceptions that had been restrained due to the appearance of a powerful enemy were mobilized at this moment. His whole person was like a living radar, searching for every plant and tree in the Byron Weiss Cathedral.

Rosen quickly discovered the familiar aura of Elander.

In the tower directly above, there are no other people around, and it seems that they are imprisoned there.

However, in Rosen's perception, Ellander's breath is quite weak, but it doesn't look like the performance after being seriously injured. In Rosen's words, it's like losing the breath of life.

You have to act fast.

There was nothing that could be used from Joseph's corpse. Rosen stepped directly over his corpse and climbed up the spiral staircase. He didn't encounter any monsters or blocking priests along the way.

"Is it a trap?"

Thinking of the simplest trick, Rosen narrowed his perception to the surrounding few yards and carefully searched for all possible ambushes and traps. But soon, he found that he was overthinking.

There is nothing, whether it is hidden enemies, deadly traps, or sneak attacks in the dark, it does not exist.

Going up the stairs, he pushed open the half-closed door.

Then, Rosen saw Eilandel who was tied to a chair.

To be honest, Rosen once watched some indescribable training videos in his last life, but this was the first time he actually saw a "broken" person.

The nun, who was originally aloof and indifferent, now had lost her eyes and couldn't find the focus. She was slumped on the chair. If she wasn't tied up with a rope, she might have slipped to the ground.

It seems like a major blow?
Rosen was a little strange. It stands to reason that Irandall knew about Bishop Edgar's betrayal of the church and would not behave like this. So what is the reason for her to do this?
After thinking about it, Rosen could only come to a conclusion related to Pachelbel. After all, this nun lady is not so cold in front of that young man.

Anyway, he had to confirm the specific situation first. Just as Rosen was about to take a step, he noticed something strange on the ground around Eilandel.

"Is this a magic circle?"

The complex magic circle drawn with bright red blood is full of obscure ancient runes, and the position of Elander is exactly in the center of the magic circle.

This made Rosen think of some kind of evil sacrificial ceremony, offering pure girls to evil gods in exchange for power, which was in line with his impression of cultists.

And the thing on Elander's chest made Rosen confirm such a guess.

It was the golden crystal that Rosen had seen before. Unlike before, this crystal was spinning at a high speed emitting a faint light, and it flickered for a while, as if it was resonating with some kind of existence in the dark.

It seems that this golden crystal is of great importance to the ceremony. Rosen thought that if Erandel was taken away or simply destroyed, it might interfere with the cultists' plans.

Rosen had no idea of ​​pity for her. On the one hand, in the current situation, Elandel, who was unable to move, was undoubtedly a burden. On the other hand, if he could inflict heavy damage to the cultists by sacrificing himself, this jealous and hateful person would Eilandel should probably choose to do the same.

However, Rosen felt that the golden crystal seemed to contain far more power than it showed, and he was afraid that he would suffer disaster if he took action rashly, so he still prioritized rescuing Eilandel.

After all, this nun lady still owes herself a request, so she can't just let her escape.

Rosen suddenly came back to his senses, and found that he was seriously considering whether to kill Elander, and there seemed to be little ripples in the indifferent soul of the undead.

"Anyway, try it first."

He shook his head, throwing aside any thoughts that might have arisen, and stepped forward into the tower hall.

Everything was as usual, and there was no magical mechanism that was triggered as Rosen imagined. He walked quickly to Ellander, and first called twice. Seeing that there was no response from the other party, he took out a short knife and cut the rope, stretched out his hand I want to hug this nun lady.

But at this moment, the entire magic circle glowed with a strange red light, shrouding Rosen and Eilandel in it.

"Sure enough!"

Rosen hurriedly hugged Ellander in the posture of a princess hug. This nun is frighteningly light, not as heavy as her steel body on the outside.

Just as he was about to retreat immediately, Rosen suddenly felt that the surrounding scenery slowed down, and then, a burst of white mist enveloped him and Eilandel.

"what's the situation?"

He was not attacked, and his own strength seemed to have no trace of passing away. When Rosen was still hesitating, he found that Elander in his arms had disappeared without a trace.

What exactly is this unfolding?

Rosen looked around, and the thick white mist was gradually dissipating.

Finally, like a breeze blowing, the surrounding scenery became clear.

But this made Rosen even more puzzled.

Because what he saw was neither the weird blood circle in the hall of the tower, nor the Byron Weiss Cathedral full of twisted monsters, nor even any place in his memory.

Santa Ophelia Orphanage.

This is written on the plaque on the door in front of Rosen.
