The Path of Ascension to the Priest

Noya was seriously injured and lost too much blood before she passed out again and was taken away by the witch Garcia who came to find her.

In order to kill and arrest everyone in the grocery store who was secretly guarding Irene, Granna deployed the secret weapon she had prepared, and it was rare that it was on her own territory. No one caught such a good opportunity in the end. arrive.

Even Irene, who had already fallen into her hands, was taken away.

Grana was upset, but she couldn't attack Noah who caused all this to happen. She could only suppress her anger in her heart, and secretly decided that she would never give Irene another chance to escape next time.

Half of the witches in the clan went out to track down Tang Qiu and the others, and the rest stayed in Wucheng to clean up the battlefield. After Granna roughly estimated the casualties, her ugly face turned even more gloomy.

She summoned the skeleton and jumped on it, directing it to walk into the wild.

The dark formation is still in operation, and the black clouds over Wucheng have not been dissipating, and they are still getting thicker and thicker, and occasionally there will be muffled thunder coming from inside.

Grana came to the location of the dark formation, she got off the skeleton, nodded to the two red-robed witches standing beside the formation, and then raised her eyes to look at the dark formation whose power made her feel horrified. Law.

This was the first time she had seen such a powerful dark formation.

The blood-colored swamp in the center of the formation was boiling and churning, and a vortex appeared inside, and black mist emerged from the vortex, gradually spreading and spreading until it merged into the black clouds above.

The ground under his feet suddenly shook, and purple lightning shrouded the sky like a spider web, followed by thunder, and the rumbling sound almost shattered people's eardrums.

Granna took a step back vigilantly, and her probing eyes fell on Witch Garcia who was guarding next to the dark formation. They were not surprised by this vision at all, but showed satisfied smiles.

The shaking didn't stop, and the ground under her feet was cracked. In the black mist above the bloody swamp, a gray-skinned arm stretched out from it, followed by a right leg and half of her body. The monster that appeared in the black mist slowly narrowed its eyes.

"Can this army compare to your werewolf army?"

Noah's weak voice came from behind Granna. Granna turned around and looked at her. Seeing that although her face was pale, but she no longer needed help, she looked away and said lightly: "It depends on the quantity." .”

Nuoya gave a low laugh, and said in a smug tone, "What if the quantity is...infinite?"

Grana raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

Noah smiled and shook his head, with a mysterious look, he said hoarsely: "The age of darkness has come."

"Yes, then I'm looking forward to it." Granna glanced at her, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. It sounds good to belong to the dark age. Of course, if Noah changed it to the age of the black witch, Then she will be more excited.

The Garcia family prepared a dark formation for thousands of years, and once it succeeded, half of the entire Sittau Continent collapsed.

As Noah said, darkness has really come.

The Godhead of Mother Earth provided enough energy for the operation of the dark formations, and the dark formations that appeared in various countries also had the same situation as the ones in Wucheng.

A large number of monsters emerged from the black vortex. They had no intelligence but greedy nature. Flesh and flesh were their food, and destruction was their instinct. It was their purpose to drag this continent into a dark swamp.

The Holy See of Goss was the first to notice something was wrong and quickly entered a state of martial law. Karen took the Light Knight to the dead city where the dark formation was located to investigate the situation.

The sky was dark and she could only rely on the torch in her hand to illuminate the road ahead. Karen scanned her surroundings cautiously. There was a sound of chewing in front of her. She didn't know what she thought of, and the complexion under the silver mask was particularly ugly.

Along with the Knight of Light were several priests, the noise of chewing was getting louder, and the smell of blood was still spreading in the air, making their faces gloomy instantly, and the priests raised their staffs one after another and began to chant spells.

The white light illuminated the darkness. Karen drew out the long sword at his waist, and carefully walked around the city wall that blocked his vision. Under the illumination of the light spell, everything in front of him was exposed in his vision.

A group of ferocious and ugly monsters were lying on the ground and eating something. Blood-stained stumps and broken arms could be seen everywhere around them, and the ground under their feet was soaked in dark red blood.

Karen tightened her hand holding the long sword, and her figure disappeared in place. With the flash of the sword, the two monsters closest to her were cut in two.

The spell of light emerged from behind her and fell into the pile of monsters one after another. Some monsters couldn't bear the erosion of the power of light and turned into fly ash.

The increase of light spells dispelled more darkness, the surrounding open space was illuminated, and the monsters hiding in the shadows and obsessed with sharing food were exposed, densely packed so that they could not be seen at a glance.

Karen's slaying of the monsters paused for a moment, then he retreated decisively, and ordered to the Bright Knight who was already trapped in the crowd of monsters: "Retreat."

This amount is not something that a few of them can clear up.

And I don't know if it's her illusion, Karen feels that the strength of these monsters is also uneven, and I don't know if there will be powerful monsters in the future.

These monsters feed on human flesh and blood, and they must hurry back and discuss countermeasures with the empire to prevent the monsters from breaking into nearby cities.

The situation on the side of the Goss Empire is not the worst. In some small and medium-sized countries, the Holy See is not so sensitive, and many territories were invaded by monsters in a panic.

A large number of civilians were killed and injured.

Although the Vatican has not been affected by the darkness, except for this place, the entire continent has been invaded by the darkness. Of course, it is impossible for the Pope not to find out.

Pleas for help were sent to the central Holy See in a swarm, and the auditorium used to welcome envoys from other countries was full of people. The Pope had been preparing for a long time and waited for the Holy Son to leave the customs for the baptism of light. Explore the situation.

Although the darkness did not cover the Holy See, the cardinals and bishops staying in the Holy See had vaguely sensed that something was wrong before the envoy came.

Because the power of light on them suddenly felt suppressed.

Because the Pope is getting old, it is not easy to appear on non-important occasions. The archbishop in red who was sent out to investigate has not yet returned. Although the others are worried about the situation outside, they have no other choice but to wait.

Reese was probably the calmest among those waiting for the news. The blond bishop had already mentioned to her about the Black Witch's intention to attack the Startu Continent, so she was not surprised that the darkness suddenly invaded her.

On the surface, it seemed that the Startu Continent collapsed suddenly and without warning, but in fact it was only because the Holy See had never paid attention to the movements of the Black Witch.

For the Holy See, which has ruled the Staru continent for thousands of years, the "rats" that have been active underground are not worthy of their attention.

But the "mouse" also has a mouthful of sharp teeth, if you underestimate it, it can still be bitten off a piece of flesh and blood.

When Reese returned to her manor in the Vatican, Mario hurried over from the outside and told Reese the news he had roughly investigated.

The situation outside was much more serious than what Reese had imagined. She frowned, and then slowly let go of it. She curled her lips into a chuckle and said, "The black witch really gave a great gift to the Holy Son."

In this case, she wants to see if the pope dares to hand over the position to the Holy Son. If he dares to hand it over, then she doesn't mind that the road to the Holy Son's succession will be more difficult.

Of course, it would be better if he couldn't sit on it.

"You go to the Goss Empire." Reese raised her hand and touched her chin, and said with a smile: "Tell Grace that it's time for her to return to the Holy See."

Tang Qiu is still unaware of the external situation and the reaction of the Holy See, but she has a preliminary understanding of the influence of the dark formation.

The place where Lorna's black vortex sent them out happened to be near a dark formation in the principality of Shas. As soon as they came out, they saw monsters looking for food.

After staying away from Wucheng, Tang Qiu discovered that the dark elements in the air had increased. Before, only dark creatures could sense the power of darkness, but now even she could sense it.

"...My Goddess of Light, what happened?" Abel, who joined them, stared at the monsters wandering nearby with wide eyes, and murmured, "No, I have to go back."

Otherwise, he should reveal his secrets.

Knowing Abel's concerns, Rona took out a scroll from the space gem and handed it to him. Abel shook the scroll and sent it away without saying a word.

After watching Abel's figure disappear, Tang Qiu frowned and asked Lorna, "What did the black witch do?"

The influence of this dark formation is much more serious than she imagined.

Before Lorna could speak, Irene, who had been observing the monsters, suddenly spoke and said uncertainly, "These monsters don't seem to be summoned?"

The monsters summoned by the black witch using dark spells all come from the dark world, but these monsters are not very similar.

Lorna affirmed Irene's words and explained: "These monsters are inferior products created by the magic circle. They only have the instinct to eat flesh and blood without much wisdom."

"However, their strength will increase as the dark formations run." Rona shook her head slightly. "It's very tricky. Unless all the dark formations are completely destroyed, they cannot be cleaned up."

When they were discussing the dark formation, Patricia, who was not very interested in it, turned and left indifferently. Tang Qiu caught a glimpse of her leaving back, turned her head, and raised her heels to follow her.

Sensing the breath of the blond bishop approaching her, Patricia paused and frowned slightly.

"Darkness has invaded the continent of Statu, and the situation of the tree of life of the elves will be even worse." Tang Qiu knew that Patricia didn't have much patience with strangers, so she didn't talk nonsense, and directly provoked her most worrying topic , "Is Delphine still using her vitality to support the Tree of Life?"

Patricia, who wanted to leave directly, turned her head to look at Tang Qiu, and said coldly, "This has nothing to do with you."

Tang Qiu chuckled, "It doesn't matter why, Delphine is my closest...friend."

Patricia snorted coldly. She didn't have a good impression of people in the Holy See, because Delphine and Tang Qiu were unusually close, and her impression of the blond bishop was even more general.

The self-healing ability of the elves is excellent. Most of the wounds on Patricia's arm have healed, but there are too many bloodstains that look a little scary. Tang Qiu looked down at Patricia's arm. He took out a jar of ointment and handed it to her, and said with a smile, "Are you interested in making a deal?"

Patricia didn't take the ointment she handed, but just looked at her indifferently.

"I know where the tree of life that the Holy See stole from the elves is." Tang Qiu shook the ointment and said softly: "The black witch's move is really too ruthless, and the Holy See will definitely become more and more chaotic. "

"But it's just the right time for you to take back the Tree of Life, isn't it?"

Patricia stared at Tang Qiu for a while, lowered her eyes slightly, and said indifferently: "...how can I believe you?"

A person from the Holy See will take the initiative to help them regain the tree of life?Patricia didn't believe it.

"This is a deal." Tang Qiu said with a slight smile on his lips, "I also have plans."

Patricia was silent for a while, raised her hand to take the ointment, and asked coldly, "What do you want?"

"I need the help of the elves." Tang Qiu looked up at the monster wandering in the distance, his eyes were deep, "I hope the elves will not stay out of this disaster that is going on in the Situ Continent."

Tang Qiu felt that the Holy See alone might not be able to suppress the darkness.

"Whether this continent is shrouded in light or occupied by darkness, the elves do not want to participate in this."

It is true that the elves hate darkness, but the current Holy See is an existence that they hate more than darkness.

"I think you should go back and ask Delphine for her opinion." Tang Qiu blinked and said with a smile: "Maybe she prefers to live in a bright world."

As if she knew Delphine well, Patricia snorted coldly, turned and left while holding the ointment, and her figure gradually disappeared in the darkness.
