Chapter 494 Holy Light Monster

In the centuries-old Luan Cathedral, the sound of roars and metal collisions broke the peace in the sanctuary. The pungent smell of magic flames burning the air filled every corridor and room, and the gathered volunteer mercenaries And the commoners set off a frenzy in the upper floors of the entire church. Hidden priests and Holy See knights were continuously found from the corners of hiding and dragged to the square outside, and this terrible movement even penetrated the thick walls. The ground spreads to the underground palace facilities under the church.

Wright led a dozen white knights in the deep underground palace of Luan Cathedral. The heavy and rapid sound of iron boots stepping on the ground reverberated in the ancient stone corridors, and the sound of battles on the ground would loom from time to time. , ethereal as if in another world.

Amber's figure was constantly shuttled in the shadows near the white knight team. She caught up with Wright's pace and couldn't help but be a little curious: "Have you been to this place? Why do you look so familiar..."

"The underground structures of large churches are all the same. A rectangular underground palace extends from the main hall in the direction of the Holy Spirit Tower. There are one or two crossroad structures in the middle. There are fixed regulations," Wright said in a deep voice as he walked. , "Be careful, there may be enemies hiding under this..."

"That's what I said... but I didn't see anyone along the way," Amber looked around, only seeing the corridors and slate roads illuminated by magic spar lamps, "But the feeling here... ...it's kind of weird..."

Wright did not respond, but silently communicated his sense of the Holy Light in his heart. With a layer of faint light emerging in his eyes, this facility located in the basement of the church showed a different shape in his field of vision:

He saw countless translucent spiritual bodies floating in the deep and long corridor, the mottled ancient walls flashed with runes that were difficult for mortals to understand and read, the slate on the ground was soaked with a faint light, and a thin layer of mist It is rising from the gaps in the slate floor and gradually filling the entire corridor.

The other white knights also activated their tactical goggles, vigilant against all abnormal energy reactions.

"The spirits in the sanctuary were disturbed..." Wright's footsteps gradually slowed down, his tone was very serious, "The energy field here is very active."

Amber thought for a while, and found that he couldn't understand at all: "What do you mean?"

"Churches gather people's spiritual power. The older and larger the church, the more so. For hundreds of years, there have been countless devout believers and priests working inside and outside the church. Its soul will form a strong echo in the underground palace of the church - this echo is not an undead, but a kind of unconscious empty echo, which is harmless and has a calming effect to a certain extent, so people There is a slight sense of relaxation after entering the old cathedral - the priests call it a miracle of the God of Light,

But in fact this is just a natural phenomenon that can be fully explained by theory," Wright frowned while explaining the knowledge to Amber, "There are also a lot of echoes here... But these spirits that were supposed to be dormant underground ...all seemed restless. "

Amber suddenly got goosebumps all over, and Emily's figure emerged from the air beside Wright. The little girl opened her eyes and looked at the empty corridor in the eyes of ordinary people, waving her hands happily with those invisible spirits. Body greeted.

Wright immediately told the little girl to go back: "Emily, hide it, there may be danger here."

Amber swallowed and asked, "Where is this place ahead?"

"It should be the prayer room. The underground prayer room is reserved for the principals of the church." Wright looked towards the end of the corridor. "The holy light there...is very active."

The team raised their vigilance and began to continue to move towards the depths of the underground facility. Amber looked around and found that there was no suitable opportunity for him to escape, so he had to shake his head and bite the bullet to keep up.

The noise from above has gradually faded away at some point. Those faint sounds seemed to be wrapped in a thick curtain, and turned into indistinct low-pitched whispers, and there were whispers. , the corridor gradually came to an end.

An oak door stood quietly in front, the magic spar lamps on both sides of the wooden door exuded a soft and warm light, and in the small open space in front of the door, a figure in a black robe knelt quietly.

The white knights clenched the warhammers in their hands instantly, and Amber raised the poisoned dagger for the first time, but the kneeling figure did not respond at all—unless he was deaf, he would not be able to hear from Heavy footsteps came from behind.

Wright made a gesture to signal everyone to be on guard, while he carried the warhammer in one hand and cautiously came to the figure.

The other party has been dead for a long time.

Lightby made a safe gesture, and after the others approached, he moved the black-robed body with the handle of the hammer, and the latter fell down unresponsively without making a sound.

It was a discipline monk, with tattoos on his scalp and a holy emblem hanging on his chest, and his face made everyone feel extremely strange——

There was no pain on his face, and there was no distressed expression on his deathbed. On the contrary, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his face was peaceful and calm, as if he was still immersed in boundless peace and joy just before he died. The joy continued after his death.

Seeing the strange death of the discipline cultivator, and thinking of his previous posture of kneeling on the ground, Amber couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat: "Mum...this...how did this guy die?"

"Unsuspectingly attacked by a psychic attack-like spell."

Wright whispered, then raised his head to look at the tightly closed oak door.

"The underground structure of this facility is blessed with magical power... It should be able to withstand..." The new Patriarch analyzed in a low voice as if talking to himself, then waved to the subordinates behind him, "Ready to clean up. process."

The white knights acted quickly and quickly. Some of them opened their shields and formed a defense line in front of the gate to deal with the impact. Others began to release the grenades from their waists and backs. "What? What cleaning process?"

No one answered her, and in the interval between her questions, several white knights opened the weapon box carried by the team, took out several sets of individual howitzers with acceleration rails, sights, and tripods, and started Quickly assembled in front of the gates - judging by their proficiency, it is clear that these warriors had been training in the army long before they became white knights.

Amber's ears pricked up suddenly: "Wait a minute, this thing is not a steel ranger..."

"Borrowed it from Solderling," Wright said in a deep voice while instructing the two team members to set up a significantly larger howitzer directly opposite the door, "Don't worry, those with too much power are Didn't bring it."

While speaking, the white knights had already set up the howitzers, and the heavy heavy-explosive grenades were pushed into the acceleration track. These soldiers of the Holy Light prayed in a low voice while pushing the cannonballs into place: "The Holy Light is merciful..." "The Light bless the acceleration track." "May the Light bless this shell and its fuse..."

Amber immediately felt that there were problems everywhere in the scene in front of him: "Hey, wait! You guys are not following the procedure! Under normal circumstances, if you encounter such a secret room underground, you should carefully disarm the trap and follow..."

When the noisy half-elf was halfway through the snarl, Wright had already raised the mechanical power warhammer in his hand, and then the heavy destructive weapon slammed heavily on the door of the prayer room with the whistling sound of the wind. : "Holy Punishment!!"

There was a loud bang, and the wooden door was torn apart. In that brief moment, Amber seemed to see something suddenly lit up behind the door and wanted to rush out. However, in the next second, with the continuous explosion, a lot of heavy explosions were heard. Grenades, heavy grenades, crystal bombs, and the continuous impact of holy light smashed into the prayer room.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

The sound of the explosion was deafening, and the entire underground structure of the church trembled violently. If it were a normal building, the only result would be collapse in the face of this terrible explosion. However, as the headquarters of the Southern Diocese of the Church of the Holy Light, Luan Cathedral The subterranean structure is unimaginably strong—it's even stronger than the city walls outside when charged with energy. In this underground palace blessed with countless magics, the sound of explosions rumbled continuously like the sound of Hong Zhong Da Lu. During the bombing that lasted for one and a half minutes, the White Knights shot out nearly a hundred grenades, bombs and grenades. And a larger number of holy light shocks - when the explosion finally came to an end, Amber still felt that her entire head was rumbling and vibrating, even though she had covered her ears for the first time, but obviously... elf blood The excellent hearing brought to her is really a fatal weakness at this time.

Wright rushed into the prayer room carrying the warhammer as soon as the explosion stopped. Under his leadership, the other white knights followed suit.

"Stay vigilant!!"

In the smoke, Wright loudly reminded everyone to be vigilant, and his eyes quickly swept across the large prayer room.

The prayer room was already in a mess. The ground, walls, and roof blessed by the Holy Light were severely damaged in the terrible bombardment just now. There were amazing cracks and crumbling slates and bricks everywhere. Between the wall and the ground, a faint golden light can also be seen creeping slowly, and that is the residual protection spell that is trying to maintain the supporting structure here and repair the damage to the building.

As for the furnishings in the room other than the walls and the ground... they have all been wiped out in the previous explosion.

"Cough...cough..." Amber coughed and followed into the smoke-filled room at the back, "You can't do it like this, you are more or less...cough...you are more or less priests. what..."

Wright raised a hand, interrupting Amber's loud bb, and his eyes fell on the center of a messy room, where a mass of wriggling flesh, crystals, and water-like light were gathering at a speed visible to the naked eye. stand up.

Amber was taken aback: "What is that?!"

Wright's eyes widened, and between the wriggling flesh and the strange crystal-like substance, he saw a broken piece of fabric, which was obviously part of a gorgeous vest: "...it's that bishop!!"
