Chapter 372: Gluttony and Lust of the Archbishop of Sin
Chapter 372 Sin Archbishop "Gluttony" and "Gluttony"
On the vast plain, Natsuki Subaru's body was torn in half and he lay on the ground, his consciousness gradually blurring.
Just as Wood expected, Subaru Natsuki did die, and he was killed by Sin Archbishop Sloth.
Originally, the target of Sloth's "Invisible Hand" was not him, but Anastasia Hessing.
Natsuki Subaru stepped forward to block the gun in order to protect Anastasia, resulting in being torn in half.
Logically speaking, Natsuki Subaru and Anastasia should not have any friendship. Although the other person is a beautiful girl, Natsuki Subaru would not be so stupid that he would risk his own life to save the other person.
But Natsuki Subaru had to do this at that time, because he knew that Anastasia was Wood's sister, and although this guy seemed to dislike Anastasia in every possible way, he actually valued her very much.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come all the way here to rescue Anastasia just because of a letter left by Mimi.
Natsuki Subaru's ability is "Death Return". If he resets to a certain timeline, people who died before will also be resurrected.
However, this save point for death reset is uncontrollable. For those who died before Natsuki Subaru, this is actually a very dangerous thing.
If Anastasia dies now, and Natsuki Subaru is killed later, the death save point may appear in a period of time after Anastasia's death and before Natsuki Subaru's death.
In other words, no matter how he "returns from death", Anastasia cannot be resurrected.
In order to prevent Anastasia from dying and then being unable to be resurrected, causing Wood to go crazy, Natsuki Subaru only hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and helping Anastasia block the attack.
Because of Natsuki Subaru's "Death Return", Wood returned to the starting position again at this time, and looked at the familiar environment around him with a look of helplessness on his face.
Wood was not surprised that Natsuki Subaru would die. After all, he clearly knew the combat strength of the White Whale.
Wilhelm, the strongest combatant, was entangled in the two separate bodies of the white whale. The main body of the white whale and Sloth were in the advantage of the thick fog, so he could basically be caught and killed.
"Subaru Natsuki, if you were a man, you would have to last longer!"
While swearing in his mouth, the movements of his feet were not slow at all. In order to avoid the time being reset because Natsuki Subaru died again, Wood even burst out with all his strength this time to rush on.
Obviously because of his first death experience, Natsuki Subaru was indeed stronger this time. After understanding the strength of White Whale and Sloth, he commanded the Stingers in advance and delayed them for sufficient time.
However, it was inevitable that due to the slightly larger gap in combat power, Natsuki Subaru and the others were defeated in the end, but this time he persisted until Wood arrived at Alam and did not die.
In this reincarnation, Wood successfully met "Gluttony" and "Gluttony", the Sin Archbishops of the Witch Cult who fought with Ram.
Among them, "Gluttony - Rai Badenkaitos" is a short boy with knee-length dark brown messy hair. Wearing tattered clothes, his exposed hands and feet were stained with dirt, and his weapon was a dagger.
"Desire - Regulus Corneas" is a white-haired boy who looks like a human and a dog. He wears a white gold-rimmed robe similar to that of a priest. But once he shows off his appearance, it will be compared to Sloth is no less.
When Wood felt the Alam Village, Ram was being bounced away by the power of "Gluttony", and "Gluttony" suddenly appeared behind Ram. Just when he took out a dagger and prepared to sneak attack on Ram, he was rushed by Wood. He was kicked away.
Seeing Wood who suddenly felt this, Ram showed a look of surprise. Just when he was about to speak, a dizziness that Wood was so familiar with hit him again!
"Damn, if I just hold on for ten more minutes..., no, even if I just hold on for five more minutes, I can get some useful clues from Ram..."
Obviously, Wood's roar could not withstand the passage of time at all. When he reacted again, his body had appeared on the road again.
"Damn, isn't this going into an endless loop! Whether it's Subaru Natsuki's white whale and "Sloth", or Ram's "Gluttony" and "Gluttony", they are not ordinary guys.
Even if I change the outcome of Ram’s amnesia, everything will start over again because of Subaru Natsuki’s death in the end…”
Even if Natsuki Subaru "returns from death" every time, he can master more information and prolong his death in battle longer.
But after Wood solved the problem in Alam Village, if he went there to provide support, the day lily would be cold.
In the absence of other external support or interference, if they want to break the situation, they have only three options and possibilities.
The first option is for Wood to immediately go to the place where the white whale is, quickly kill the white whale and Sloth with thunder, and quickly rush to the Alam village while ensuring that Subaru Natsuki is not dead.
The second option is to follow the current steps, either Wood speeds up again, or Natsuki Subaru persists longer so that he can get some information from Ram.
Although the timeline will still be reset due to Natsuki Subaru's death, Wood is a "special" existence, and his memory of obtaining information from Ram will be retained.
After receiving the information from Ram, Wood can continue to go to where the white whale is and kill the white whale and Sloth.
If you do this, although things will develop the same as the original incident, and Ram will continue to lose his memory, the only difference is that Wood has obtained limited information from Ram before she loses her memory.
As for the third option, Wood actually didn't have much hope, that is, Natsuki Subaru and the others could kill the White Whale and "Sloth" through their own power.
If Natsuki Subaru does not activate the power of "Death Return", Wood can slowly deal with "Gluttony" and "Gluttony", and Ram will not lose his memory because of this, which is the most perfect ending.
The first option, Wood, was quickly eliminated after just thinking about it for a moment.
Because based on what he saw in his last reincarnation, Ram was obviously at a disadvantage when he arrived at Alam Village.
Even if he kills the White Whale and "Sloth" as quickly as possible, it will obviously be too late to get there.
Although the third option is good, it depends on Natsuki Subaru's ability. No matter how hard he works, it will be useless.
So after hesitating for a while, Wood found helplessly that now he seemed to have the only way to quickly go to Alam Village.
He had walked the same road three times, and because he had avoided many detours and shortcuts, this time Wood arrived at the Alam village one step earlier than the previous two reincarnations.
When Wood arrived this time, Ram was bursting with powerful magic power, and the ghost horns on his head were surrounded by wind-attribute magic power visible to the naked eye!
Just by raising his arm, the magic power absorbed through the ghost horns turned into gusts of wind, and the moment Ram waved his hand, it turned into multiple wind blades and shot towards "Gluttony" and "Gluttony".
In Wood's opinion, the wind magic released by Ram is comparable to his own "holy level wind magic".
On the hard rock surface, deep ravines appeared directly under the cutting of wind blades, and the houses in Alam Village were also making creaking sounds under the strong wind, and there were many small ones. Stones and trees were directly swept into the sky by Ram's wind magic.
It has to be said that Ram, who has regained the power of the ghost clan, has surpassed Yurius as the "best knight" in power. Even Wood thinks that Ram has a good chance of winning if he fights the white whale in a one-on-one duel.
Because wind magic of this scale is enough to blow away the thick fog released by the white whale in one breath.
But soon, what happened in front of Wood surprised him.
Ram's powerful wind magic was actually blocked by the Witch Cult's Archbishop of Sin, "Lust", with his outstretched hand when it was blasted in front of him!
It is not accurate to say that it was blocked, because Wood could feel that the opponent did not use the power to collide with Ram's magic.
Moreover, the wind is flowing, and this is true even for the wind generated by magic. However, the wind blade Ram shot in front of "Strong Desire" remained "static" at this moment.
Several huge wind blades shattered in the hands of "Strong Desire", but the opponent's sleeves didn't even wrinkle at all.
At the same time that Ram was shocked, "Gluttony" who was originally standing behind "Gluttony" suddenly appeared in front of Ram without any warning, as if teleporting, and tried to stab Ram with the dagger in his hand. chest.
It is obviously impossible to continue watching the battle, because if "Gluttony" succeeds, Ram will at least end up injured.
After using the six styles of shaving, Wood's figure also appeared in front of Ram without any warning, and then struck at "Gluttony" with a preemptive move.
The image of "Gluttony" is that of a sickly boy with a stooped body and ragged clothes. But when Wood slashed at the opponent with his long sword, he showed good reflexes and body coordination.
In an instant, he changed the action of stabbing Ram with the dagger and used it to resist Wood's long sword.
"Ding------!"
A sound of gold and iron clashing echoed in the air. Although "Gluttony" successfully resisted Wood's attack, it was unable to gain an advantage in terms of strength, and was knocked away in an instant.
The short figure slid on the ground for a long distance. When they saw Wood who suddenly appeared here, "Gluttony" and "Gluttony" couldn't help but show curiosity on their faces.
As for Ram, he had a look of surprise on his face when he saw Wood. He was obviously surprised and happy that Wood suddenly arrived here.
"Compared to Rem, Ram's sister is obviously stunted. You actually picked on her chest. This will make her angry."
Hearing Wood's teasing tone, Ram's originally touched emotions at being rescued suddenly disappeared, and he complained: "Really, Mr. Wood, can you be more serious and don't be like that idiot Burruss?" Same.
They are both members of the Witch Cult, and these two are also cadre-level Sin Archbishops. "
It has to be said that Ram felt a lot more relieved when she saw Wood arriving here, because in her opinion, Wood's strength was completely unfathomable.
But the opponent is the "Sin Priest" of the Witch Cult, so Ram thinks that he can't be too careless now.
"So, what happened in Alam Village? Didn't you follow Roswaal?
Why do you suddenly encounter people from the Witch Cult here, and meet two Sin Archbishops at once? "
Because time was limited, Wood was worried that Natsuki Subaru might die again, so he quickly asked Ram for information.
"I was indeed tracking and investigating Lord Roswaal, and I knew that the reason why the Witch Cult had been gaining so much recently was entirely because Lady Emilia went to participate in the King's Election, and Lord Roswaal knew about these things.
Just when I was about to investigate further, I encountered "Gluttony" and "Greed" here. They seemed to be planning to capture the villagers and force Lady Emilia to show up.
Lord Roswaal just arrived, but for the safety of the villagers, he took the villagers of Aram and left first, and I was responsible for stopping the people of the Witch Cult from behind."
Because the results of Ram's investigation were not enough to prove that Roswaal had hurt Rem, Ram was still loyal to Roswaal because of the past kindness.
In addition, once the villagers of Aram fell into the hands of the Witch Cult, it would indeed cause unnecessary trouble, so Ram finally accepted Roswaal's order and stayed behind to stop the people of the Witch Cult.
Being the last one to leave does not mean death, and Ram, who has regained the power of the ghost clan, is also quite confident in his own strength.
But she did not expect that the so-called "archbishop of sin" is also so tricky. Judging from the strength that the two have just shown, it seems that it is not an easy thing for her to get out of here unscathed.
Hearing what Ram said, Wood was a little stunned, because this was different from the information he had obtained in the previous reincarnation.
Didn't the blonde maid named Frederica say that it was because Roswaal arrived in time that scared away the two archbishops of "gluttony" and "greed"?
But now Ram said that Roswaal had left with the villagers first, and she stayed behind to cover the rear.
Did the events change after reincarnation? Or did Frederica or Roswaal lie?
"Then what about the ability information of these two archbishops of sin? What are their abilities like?"
There is no time to investigate what Roswaal is planning now. Wood must ask for the ability information of "greed" and "gluttony" in a limited time.
In this way, even if Ram loses his memory again when re-entering the previous events, Wood and the others will have a way to treat the symptoms.
"I don't know about this, because this is the first time I have encountered the Witch Cult's "Greed" and "Gluttony".
I just fought with them, so I know nothing about their abilities."
