The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 664 Load

On the small square outside St. Ruide Hospital, a thick layer of fog suddenly appeared and filled the surrounding area.

The bright lights became faintly visible, very dim.

Even the high-power searchlight that had just been erected outside the hospital lawn was like a small night light with a few watts of power at this time, completely unable to provide the proper lighting.

But the people in the hospital didn't realize this at all, and they were doing their own things.

Ignoring a group of monsters in robes and long swords, they passed by them.

In this group of people, three of them walked straight out of the hospital building, while the remaining two knelt down in front of the statue of Sister Rhett, praying in a low voice.

hum!

On the lifelike statue, an inch of light lit up amidst the sound of prayers.

The power beyond ordinary people's comprehension was blessed to the three people who went out.

Immediately, the breaths of the three people began to rise in a straight line.

"hiss!"

Standing in the shadows, Qin Ran gasped.

After discovering the strange explosion, he rushed out of his ward, just a little later than the five people in front of him, and happened to witness the process of praying and blessing.

It was also because of this that Kieran was so surprised.

If the previous three were slightly stronger than ordinary people and comparable to the elite of the military, then the three at this time have already surpassed the limits of ordinary human bodies and entered the level of similar fighters.

A simpler example: a person whose attributes are hovering at the E level suddenly reaches the C level.

This is no longer a degree of leapfrogging, but a complete qualitative change.

"Is some kind of secret technique used to stimulate the power in the statue?"

After Kieran quickly calmed down, his gaze at [the statue of Sister Rhett] became strange.

Among the [Sister Rhett's Statue] that he knew, there was no such thing as 'endowed'.

But the things in front of me...

Kill the chicken and take the egg!

This conclusion rose from the bottom of Qin Ran's heart.

The already weird gaze became even weirder.

Every special item has its own power.

Even the lowest level of magic items are no exception.

But such power is not endless, and legendary items are no exception.

Therefore, cooling occurs.

In [Mysterious Knowledge], it was also introduced that the method of using overload can make magic items exert a power far beyond their own.

But the price is damage to the item.

Although no specific method was introduced, the current method of absorbing the power of a certain item and using it beyond its original usefulness is an overload method.

"Ignoring [the statue of Sister Rhett] itself...is there another recovery method?"

Suspicious Kieran subconsciously thought of the honorific title "Holy" that the white-haired old man gave to Sister Rhett!

But in front of him, people who belong to the same camp as the other party are extracting the power of the statue in this way.

This made Qin Ran suspicious.

Because, doing so, how can it be called respect.

If there is a way to fix it after the fact, it's okay.

if not...

Qin Ran sensed dozens of auras in the hospital similar to the five people in front of him, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

As for how to judge that the five people in front of him, the dozens of people hidden and the old man belong to the same camp?

If the similar breath is not enough to explain, then the symbols hidden in the clothing are enough to prove it.

The special pattern on the inside of the sleeve is obviously not a decoration or something that can be simply imitated. The faint mysterious atmosphere on it shows the essence of its magic item.

clang clang clang!

The sound of the long sword being unsheathed sounded.

The three people who walked out of the hospital drew their long swords and stood ready.

The fog on the opposite side was billowing more and more.

The two sides are at war.

However, Qin Ran won't 'mind his own business'.

He stood in the shadows, watching the thick fog outside the hospital with bated breath.

The perception reduced to S+, combined with the [Tracking] field of vision, is enough for Kieran to easily see a large number of invisible wandering souls, a small number of evil spirits, and a very small number of evil spirits hidden in the dense fog.

Of course, these were not what Kieran cared about.

With [the statue of Sister Rhett], even if the power is drawn, as long as the statue is not broken, these undead don't want to enter the hospital.

What Qin Ran really cares about is the people who control these invisible wandering spirits, fierce spirits and evil spirits.

They piled up these undead outside the hospital, definitely not for exhibition.

And these people must know the function of [Sister Rhett's statue].

It is impossible to waste such a great opportunity!

That's right, it's a great opportunity!

Thinking about the words of the members of the "Elder Council" who infiltrated before and the old man, an obvious fact appeared in Qin Ran's mind: turn the tiger away from the mountain.

The 'Elder Council' wanted to provoke the old man to leave St. Read's Hospital.

The member who sneaked in was considered a part of it, but it was harmless. Even if he killed him, the old man would definitely leave.

Because the 'elder council' must have other arrangements, enough to hold the old man back.

What is the arrangement, Qin Ran is not clear, but Qin Ran knows that such an arrangement must pay a high price.

After paying a lot of money, just came to the 'exhibition'?

No matter what, Kieran would not believe it.

Next second!

Rumble!

Amidst the roar of the engine, a huge monster loomed in the thick fog.

Qin Ran saw the huge monster in the thick fog at first glance.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

chariot!

With machine guns, turrets, tracks, and a puff of black smoke, the chariot moved forward rapidly.

boom!

Flames flickered on the turret.

Da da da!

Flames blazed from the muzzle of the machine gun.

Holding long swords and wearing robes, the three standing outside the hospital seemed to be dazzled by such an attack.

Under the shells, the two of them were directly smashed to pieces, and even a huge crater appeared in front of the hospital.

The remaining one didn't hold on for a second, and was beaten into a sieve under the machine gun.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Marylin' fools, do you think it was a hundred years ago?"

"Long sword?"

"Killing me!"

"It's all powder guns now!"

A jerky and ugly laughter rang out in front of the blood-spattered hospital door.

This is a thin old man.

Only the skin and bones remained, and the deep-set eye sockets exuded a miserable green light. It looked like a walking and talking skeleton covered in human skin.

And following the thin old man's laughter, a truly vicious taunt sounded from the thick fog.

However, the next moment, these voices stopped abruptly.

Kieran in the shadows felt his throat a little astringent.

because--

Dozens of rockets fell from the sky!

From the hidden windows on various floors of the hospital, one after another rockets with trailing flames smashed into the thick fog, especially where the thin old man was, there were no less than ten rockets falling at the same time.

Boom boom boom!

The huge explosion caused the entire building of the hospital to shake.

But it subsided immediately.

[The statue of Sister Rhett] emitted more light.

Not only was the whole building safe and sound, but the dense fog outside the hospital also dissipated immediately.

A dozen mutilated corpses looked extremely terrifying under the moonlight.

Those wandering souls, ominous spirits and evil spirits were wiped out in the explosion.

The people belonging to the Church of 'Marylin' came out of their hiding places and came to the hall.

Kieran looked at these people in long robes, with long swords on their waists and bazookas on their shoulders, and didn't know how to describe them.

He seemed to see the players in the huge city.

All the same... eclectic!

Qin Ran backed away slowly.

He didn't want to be discovered by dozens of guys carrying bazookas who could be empowered at any time, even if he had met and agreed with the leader who should be these people.

In fact, when the members of the invading 'elder council' were killed in one fell swoop, Kieran's vigilance towards that old man was heightened again.

Possessing the power of the mysterious side, but not minding the use of modern weapons, it is enough to show the opponent's flexible mind.

Moreover, at the scene in front of him, Kieran even suspected that the other party deliberately 'involved'!

It is necessary to eat the "bait" given by the "elder council" and wipe out the manpower sent by the "elder council".

Facing such a person, even if they were in the same camp, Kieran would not take it lightly.

Because, you don't know at all whether the other party will treat you as an abandoned child.

Just like those three people who stood outside the hospital with their swords drawn after being blessed.

Without the sacrifices of those three, how could the ambushers of the 'Marylin' church have so easily judged the location of the invading enemy in the thick fog, lured the guy who looked like the leader of the opponent, and wiped them out in one fell swoop.

Carefully, Kieran stepped back step by step.

But the next moment, Qin Ran, who was retreating, stopped abruptly.

He saw the skinny old man who should have been blown to pieces!

The other party entered the hospital hall grandly in the form of a dead soul.

He even ignored the protection of [Sister Rhett's Statue]!
