Soul echo

Chapter 263 After the war
Mrs. Pereira opened her eyes in a daze, but felt her body shaking...

His vision slowly changed from blurred to clear, and the dark land and his swinging hands appeared in his vision.

But the brain seemed a little sluggish, and it took a while for Mrs. Pereira to react.

"Your Excellency Zhong Ye?" She turned her head and saw the back of her head. Her shoulder-length black hair was combed into a bunch and fell on her back.

"En." Zhong Ye responded.

"...let me down." Mrs. Pereira sighed.

Zhong Ye stopped and put Mrs. Pereira off her shoulders.

After landing, Mrs. Pereira rubbed her belly, then touched her head, and then looked at Zhong Ye.

The old mage Kale, who hadn't woken up, was carried on the other shoulder by him, and this was not the Kingdom's Mage Academy... She didn't know where it was, but when she looked around, she only saw a vast expanse of white woods.

Feeling the pain in the back of her head and face, Mrs. Pereira gradually recalled what happened before.

She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Since they are still alive, Zhong Ye must have expelled the Lord of Pleasure from this world, but he doesn't know how he did it.

If it wasn't for Zhong Ye, she and Kale would almost have sworn allegiance to the Lord of Pleasure, and once the oath was spoken, they would really be transformed into believers of the Lord of Pleasure.

After a long silence, Mrs. Pereira sighed again: "...Thank you."

"You're welcome." Zhong Ye shook his head.

Then they took another step and walked in the direction of Paris.

Not long after, Calle also groaned and woke up.

After waking up, the first thing he said was: "Is the battle over?"

Although he was knocked unconscious by Zhong Ye's kick, Kale was more sober than Mrs. Pereira, who was hit hard on the head.

"Your Excellency Kale!"

Hearing Mrs. Pereira's call, the old mage who had just been put down by Zhong Ye rubbed his belly, sat down against a tree, and waved his hands, "I know what you want to say, since the Lord of Pleasure has been expelled , then the situation in Paris can’t be that bad, I’ll talk about the teleportation later, I’m going to take a break first…”

In order to take them both away, Zhong Ye could only carry them on his shoulders, but his body was too strong, even if he paid enough attention, it was inevitable that he would bump into their abdomens while walking.

Mrs. Pereira still feels dizzy until now, let alone the old mage. Even a young man with a strong body can't stand Zhong Ye's kick. Even if he tried his best, Kale is old and his body is weak Different from young people.

After sitting down, the old mage couldn't help asking Zhong Ye about their situation after they were stunned, and how the Lord of Pleasure was expelled.

When they heard "Blessings of the Gods", the old mage and Mrs. Pereira didn't say anything, but the expressions on their faces were very exciting.

But after hearing "Adrian's resurrection", the shock and joy in my heart receded like a tide, and doubts flooded my heart.

Even if only a part of the Lord of Pleasure descended, it was impossible for Adrian to be resurrected under his oppression, let alone compete with him for control of his body.

If there is no accident, there must be an external force that helped Adrian, and this force is most likely the king of conspiracy.

It is impossible for the King of Conspiracy to help Adrian for no reason. Among them, he must have got something he wanted, and it must be beneficial, so he will help Adrian resist the Lord of Pleasure.

Thinking of this, the old mage stood up.

"We can't wait any longer, let's go back now!"

Kale began to prepare the spell with a serious expression. Mrs. Pereira and Zhong Ye looked at each other and smiled wryly apologetically.

She hasn't recovered from the blow to her head. If she just uses psionic energy, there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that she needs to keep her mind clear, otherwise there may be a transmission error.

The wizard's teleportation can also verify the calculation results many times, but the psion's teleportation is completely idealistic, so Mrs. Pereira didn't use the teleportation herself before, but waited for the old mage to wake up.

With a flash of light in the woods, the three of them were teleported back to Paris.

By the time they got back to Paris, the fighting was over.

The location where they appeared was in front of the temple of the God of Medicine, so they naturally saw the bloody scene on the square.

The corpses of many cultists were piled up in the center of the square. Most of those corpses were incomplete. Just around the periphery, you could see many headless, broken arms, broken legs, and even half-cut corpses.

Because it was already evening, twelve braziers were lit around the square, and the flames were burning, bursting out with dazzling light, driving away the darkness of the entire square.

Between each brazier stood three armored paladins holding sharp swords, and more than a dozen clergymen wandered around the pile of corpses, enduring discomfort and continuously pouring holy water on the pile of corpses.

The choir gathered in every temple and church, singing sacred hymns, and beautiful and shocking notes floated from the magnificent buildings, lingering over the square.

"who?"

The knight guarding the temple saw three people suddenly appearing in front of the door, pulled out their weapons in a panic, and asked sharply.

"Child, relax a bit, we are not your enemy." The old mage smiled and turned to look at the temple knight, and then cast his gaze into the open door.

The lights in the temple are brightly lit, but there is an entrance hall blocking the situation inside.

"Bishop Savage of the God of War Church should be inside, right? We are his comrades-in-arms, you go and tell him, he can prove our identity."

None of them are from the Kingdom of Gaul. Mrs. Pereira is from Corsica, Zhong Ye is from the East, and Calle himself is from Castile. noble.

During this sensitive period, if they could not reveal their identities, they would be hostile by the people of the church, so the old mage chose to let other people prove their identities.

Hearing the old mage call out the name of Bishop Savage, several temple knights looked at each other.

"His Excellency Bishop Savage has already gone back."

The old mage glanced at the sky and laughed dumbfoundedly.

His consciousness was still stuck in this morning, completely unaware that the time had quietly arrived in the evening.

As the bishop of Savage, it is enough to get the best treatment in the shortest time—although [Dissociation] can only be restored by replenishing a large amount of water, the clergy of the God of Healing can also relieve the 'water loss' State magic.

At this moment, a clergyman left around the corpse pile and took a ray of flame from a nearby brazier.

The clergy dispersed to watch as the firebearer walked up to the pile of corpses and threw flames.

The pile of corpses was instantly ignited, and the flames soaring into the sky reflected the night sky of the city red.

With this scene, the choir in the temple also began to move.

They didn't stop chanting, and their voices were getting closer and closer to the gate.

Several temple knights retracted their weapons silently and looked at Zhong Ye and the others.

The three of them saluted slightly and stepped aside.

Group after group of clergymen came out of temples and churches, singing holy hymns.

The team leader walked to the brazier, caught a flame with the torch in his hand, and then led the team into the dark and dark streets.

More than a dozen teams acted separately, wandering the streets and alleys like long snakes, trying to purify the remaining evil breath in the city.

The sanctity is filled with singing, with the church area as the center, the priests chanted and poured holy water all the way.

Therefore, there is warmth emanating from it, and as the singing flutters, the power from the gods caresses the earth little by little, alleviating the trauma of the city.

Looking away from the distant team, the temple knight let out a long sigh of relief, "... let's go."

With a smile on his lips, the old mage saluted the knights again, then turned and left.

The same was true of Zhong Ye and Mrs. Pereira, but the old mage turned his head and walked towards the church of the Church of God of War, but the two of them left the square of the church district.

When they came to an intersection, the two separated again.

Before parting, Mrs. Pereira stopped Zhong Ye: "Your Excellency Zhong Ye, you will be staying at the Adventurer's House these days, right?"

Zhong Ye nodded, "There is no plan to leave yet."

"That's good." Mrs. Pereira smiled slightly, raised her skirt to salute, and then separated from Zhong Ye.

Looking at Mrs. Pereira's back, Zhong Ye shook his head and walked on the road to the Adventurer's House.

The city was gradually filled with divine power, and the resentful spirits hiding in the shadows were also dispelled. Tonight, there was only warmth left on the streets, even if there was a wind blowing, it would still bring warmth.

Wrapped in warmth, Zhong Ye walked all the way back to the Adventurer's House.

He also met two church teams on the road, but he didn't disturb them. He stood by the roadside and waited for them to pass by before heading back home.

The door of the Adventurer's House was wide open, and countless hustle and bustle overflowed from it.

Lilian sat at the position closest to the gate, raising her head to look at the gate from time to time, imagining that Zhong Ye's figure would appear at the gate, but she never saw Zhong Ye appear.

Lilian lay on the table, sighed wistfully, turned her head to look again, and then - Zhong Ye really appeared!
She sat up straight at once and rubbed her eyes.

Immediately, she realized that this was not a hallucination, and before Zhong Ye came over, Lilian jumped off the chair and ran over.

"teacher!"

She ran directly into Zhong Ye's arms and hugged him tightly.

Zhong Ye was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, and patted her on the head.

"Your teacher, I am very powerful, and I won't die so easily!"
