Chapter 649 A Turning Point in History

While Olina was still in a daze, Xia Fan had already rushed in front of her at a very fast speed, "Hurry up! The tower is going to explode!"

Explode?

How will the tower explode?

Although the dragon girl's mind had not yet turned around, her body's instinct had already followed Xia Fan's reaction. She circled half a circle on the spot and ran towards the area of ​​Xila City that had not yet been covered by the shadow of the sun god.

Just after flying for less than a few breaths, a very dazzling light suddenly illuminated the entire earth!

"Don't look back, keep running!" Xia Fan shouted.

Under the illumination of this light, even the capital shrouded in darkness seemed to be a little brighter, and the sparkling waves of the Dragon's Saliva River turned into a dazzling silver-white. If the other party's tone was not extremely solemn, Olina would definitely not be able to help but look back at this rare wonder.

Then she saw a "ripple" appear on the ground.

It expanded very quickly, almost instantly catching up with the two people, and collided with the hills and the walls of Xila in the distance. The moment the two came into contact, you can see obvious white smoke and dust rising.

What is that——

Before Olina could ask, a scorching heat wave instantly hit her!

The two of them were thrown out like a kite without a line. In the spinning world, she couldn't control her body at all and could only let the hurricane push her forward!

The problem is that a storm of this intensity should only appear on the sea. There is not even a dark cloud in the sky. How could such a violent air wave be generated?

Until then, the explosion that tore the sky and the earth came from the direction of Denglong Tower——

With this roar, her peripheral vision caught a ball of fire rising into the sky. The fireball was so bright that it was almost as bright as the rising sun!

This may be the reason why Xia Fan asked her not to look back.

But isn't Denglong Tower an ancient stone tower?

Why did it cause such an amazing momentum when it collapsed? Even if all the gunpowder in Xila City was pulled together, it would probably not achieve this effect.

And the exaggerated pair of wings behind Xia Fan...

She vaguely realized that the history of the Holy Wing Islands might take a huge turn today.

…

After the aftermath of the explosion, only a huge deep pit remained at the location of the Denglong Tower, as if it had never existed.

Since Xia Fan and Olina flew high enough, the air wave only pushed them to roll dozens of times, and did not cause much substantial damage. Soon, the two landed on the White Sand with the unconscious Taksis, and immediately called the elf doctor to treat her to remove the poison and stabilize the girl's injuries.

After learning that Li and Qianyan had returned safely and successfully rescued the vampire princess, Xia Fan finally felt relieved. Although no one expected that the God's Ceremony would eventually turn out like this, the timing of the action was chosen just right - the chaos was large enough to reduce the church's control ability to the extreme, and the old palace became a zone that they had no time to take care of. By the time they found that the Natating royal hostages had disappeared, I am afraid that the White Sand had returned to Jinxia City.

But before he had time to see the princess, Xia Fan met an unexpected guest.

The red priest of the church, Alec.

Half of his body was covered in blood, and only one arm was left. Although he was temporarily out of danger after emergency bandages, he still looked very depressed. When he landed on the White Sand, he had no followers around him, and he had to do all the emergency treatments by himself, which was really embarrassing for a high priest in a high position.

"Are you... okay?" Xia Fan looked at him for a moment, "Do you want our doctor to check you?"

"Thank you, but no need." Alec smiled bitterly, "My injury was not caused by the evil spirit, but by my own hand. This kind of injury can be recovered in ten days or half a month. On the contrary, the loss of magic treatment is too great. If possible, I hope your doctor can use the healing technique on ordinary people who need help more."

"Did it yourself?"

"Yes. If I didn't do this, I'm afraid I would have ended up like His Holiness the Pope."

Xia Fan immediately became interested.

He also wanted to know what kind of changes had happened in the Vatican that turned the God's Ceremony into such a miserable state.

"Don't worry, I will tell you everything I know." Alec seemed to see what he was thinking, "But before that, can I ask you a few questions?"

"Go ahead."

"My men saw you flying all the way from the Denglong Tower just now, and it seemed that you were carrying Miss Yongyi in your hand... Is this true?"

So that's it, Xia Fan suddenly realized, this is why the red priest rushed over. But it's normal for his whereabouts to be discovered. There are many dragonborns active in the dock area, some are nobles moving their wealth, and some are church priests directing the people to take refuge. At that time, he only wanted to return to the White Sands as soon as possible to save Taksis's life, and did not deliberately avoid the sight of the crowd.

"That's right. I received intelligence that a suspicious person was following the team heading to the Dragon Tower. For safety reasons, I also went to the Dragon Tower and ran into Taksis. Of course... I also encountered enemies who wanted to murder her." Xia Fan said bluntly, "Something went wrong within the church. This trial was clearly a premeditated frame-up. Fortunately, she was strong enough to hold on until I arrived. If she had been a step later, she would have been in great danger."

Hearing this, Alec's expression relaxed a lot, and then he showed a trace of shame, "You are right, the magic lock spell prepared for the God's coming ceremony was secretly tampered with. I can't think of any other explanation that could make the Goddess Hera look like this. Although it has not been found out who did it-"

"It was the red priest Mayne." Xia Fan gave a direct answer.

He couldn't help but be stunned, "You know?"

Xia Fan briefly recounted Taksis's discovery, "I don't know much about the internal affairs of the church, but even the youngest judge thinks so, it should be nine out of ten correct."

"It's true..." Alec's tone was more disappointed. It can be seen that after the incident, he was not completely suspicious of the suspect, but just lacked real evidence.

"Where is she?"

"She is missing just like Archbishop Bolton. I was worried that she might be deprived of her soul by that thing, but it seems that she should have prepared a way out long ago."

After a moment, he looked up at Xia Fan, "Where is Takhisis now?"

"She is resting in the cabin. Do you want to see her?"

"If possible." Alec nodded, "The magic belt should not bind her anymore."

Xia Fan brought the red priest to the bedroom in the stern. The elves in charge of treatment had left, and only the red-haired girl with her eyes closed was left on the soft couch.

Alec silently chanted a spell, then brushed his fingers over the other's collar, which then broke into several pieces.

The moment the magic power resumed flowing, a faint red blood color suddenly appeared on Takhisis's cheek.
