Chapter 147 Celestial Sect

In the sacred beam of light, the tree tumors and flesh and blood that lost the support of external power disintegrated quickly, as if encountering snow covered with red-hot iron balls.

Amid the indescribable hissing sound, Cynthia's face wrinkled, looking extremely painful.

She turned left and right with difficulty, looked up and down, her expression gradually became terrified and confused, as if she finally realized that she was not in the right state.

"General..." Her voice trembled, and she looked forward in fear and despair, but she could only find a strange face.

Klein could have used Cynthia's remaining flesh and spirit to feed "Squirming Hunger", but at this moment he just sighed and said calmly:

"Don't touch strange items or religion in the future."

In his opinion, Cynthia's current appearance was either related to a cult, or because of a dangerous item that was connected with an existence that could not be seen directly, so she responded in this way.

Cynthia vaguely understood something, and with only one head and some flesh and blood left, she suddenly shed tears:

"Yes, it's the Mother Tree of Desire, it's the Celestial Sect...

"General, General, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!

"Help me! Help me!"

The Mother Tree of Desire... The Celestial Sect... This is not within the scope of my mystical knowledge... Klein's expression did not change, and he looked at Cynthia who collapsed and asked for help with pity, opened his arms again, and said in a low voice:

"Death is not the end, you will be redeemed by the gods."

Another beam of clear and pure light fell, and Cynthia's tearful and beautiful face was completely frozen.

Her eyes were suddenly desperate, but there was still some hope for the heaven after death.

Under the light of the "sun", her head and torso melted and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, obtaining the ultimate purification.

Klein looked at this scene seemingly calmly, without any change in expression or movement for a long time.

When everything subsided, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he gave a low, bitter laugh:

"What a crazy and chaotic world..."

The experience just now made him afraid to "channel" directly,

The many weirdness of the matter made him give up his plan to bring Cynthia's spirit body above the gray mist to "inquire", but in the face of the situation where the evil feeling could not be resolved and the corrosion was getting worse, he could only choose to let Cynthia was purified in time. After all, this is a world with a true god, and there may indeed be a heaven after death.

As for the backlash from "squirming hunger", Klein is not worried for the time being. After getting along for so long, this magical item that has been sealed to a certain extent is getting better and better with him. Give it food, and it will return to its original state. Once it is turned on, it will only be eaten once in 24 hours, no matter how many times it is used. Of course, on the day it is not used, it is definitely not necessary to eat.

Therefore, Klein still has plenty of time to find food for "Squirming Hunger", so as not to hurt innocent people.

If it doesn't work, you can still throw it on the gray fog... Klein looked around, and found that the members of the general guard and the male and female waiters in the house had escaped the influence of magnified desire and passed out. This included choking his companions at the door Throat maids who want to gain praise and approval, including the blonde secretary Lu ErAnn.

"Sure enough, only by solving the root of the problem can the matter be completely ended...

"According to Admiral Amyrius's description, Lu Er'an is at least a Sequence 6 Extraordinary, suspected of being a 'corrupted baron', and may even have secretly reached Sequence 5... He is so easily controlled by the magnified desire, which shows that he was controlled by Cynthia's arrival. The essence of this kind of power is extremely high, but why I just had a dream...

"Not counting magical items, Lu Er'an and I should be at the same level...

"Because the part of the power that is intertwined with the gray fog and reality is helping? Because of the restrictions of Admiral Amyrius' "temporary contract"? Or are there two factors?

"Well, without them, as Cynthia's main target, my desire in that aspect would definitely be magnified to the extreme, and this wouldn't be just a beautiful dream..." Klein habitually stretched out his right hand and stroked his face Kong, transformed back into the appearance of Amyrius Leavitt.

Because the rest of the people were not in danger for the time being, he carefully examined the room, and suddenly he was inspired.

Taking a few steps forward, Klein came to the place where Cynthia disappeared, bent down and picked up a necklace from the pile of torn clothes on the bed.

A pendant the size of a knuckle was hung on the necklace, the whole body was black, shaped like a shrunken rhinoceros horn, its surface was extremely dull, covered with many cracks, except for a little evil feeling, it lacked any spiritual brilliance.

"Is this the dangerous item that caused Cynthia's mutation? Because it has been connected to the invisible existence, it has completed its mission and poured all its power into Cynthia's body?" Klein made a preliminary study based on the condition of the pendant and his previous experience. made a guess.

He checked for a while, but found nothing else, so he took out the paper figurine, dealt with the traces of the scene, and lifted the restrictions of the spell, then walked to the side of the blond secretary Lu Er'an who had been swallowed by flowers for a short time and left some traces of corrosion, raised his knee, Kicked each other a few times with the toes.

With Amyrius' character, he probably wouldn't be able to squat down and shake the secretary awake... Heh, this guy's arrogant attitude before was really annoying, and I wanted to beat him up... Klein stopped his movements , watching Lu Er'an slowly wake up with a serious expression.

"Your Excellency, General..." Lu Er'an was a little confused for a moment, as if he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.

As a superior, he has no obligation to explain... Klein looked down at him and said in a low voice:

"You wake up all the slightly injured people here, some of them treat the rest, and some of them immediately investigate the Celestial Sect on Oravi Island. They worship an evil god called 'Mother Tree of Desire', um... from the people around Cynthia.

"I'm waiting for the report in the study."

After finishing speaking, he held the broken and reduced rhino horn pendant, turned and walked out the door of the master bedroom, and entered the unaffected quiet study room.

As a military figure, although he has a certain amount of helplessness when facing the high-level officials of the kingdom, he must selectively ignore some things. For example, the new governor has arrived just after the telegram order to dismiss the governor of Auston-this shows that the other party He set off ahead of schedule for a long time, and as the supreme commander of the Central Sunian Navy, Amyrius Leavitt did not receive any news at all, but on Oravi Island, after facing Secretary Luan, the local police system and As a member of the naval base, he still has absolute authority and does not need to investigate by himself, and some people can arrange it.

The demigod only needs to be on guard against accidents, wait for news, and don't need to rush around!

In the study, Klein heard the chaotic footsteps outside and the terrified screams, inquiries, and exchanges, and the bright starry sky and the bright star bloomed involuntarily in his mind.

"What exactly does this symbolize?" Klein frowned, and sat on the armchair behind the desk, his figure immersed in the darkness brought by the curtains.

He quickly had a certain association, because the myths and legends of the City of Silver and some descriptions of the blood race situation by Emlyn White made him confirm that the "Moon" pathway had part of the authority to "reproduce", which was in line with Cynthia's intentions and The performance is relatively consistent.

"A bright starry sky... Mister 'Gate' told Emperor Roselle that the Tarot card corresponding to the goddess is a 'star', not a 'moon'. Could it be that this illusory starry sky symbolizes her? Well, the 'primordial moon' It is suspected that it is the vest of a certain god, angel or high-level demon, and the goddess has the honorable name of 'Crimson Moon', could it be that she pretended to be the 'primordial moon', occupied the corresponding position, and grasped the necessary authority?" Ke Although Ryan knew that such thoughts were very profane, he still inevitably doubted the Evernight Goddess.

But he quickly denied this speculation, because no matter Lilith, the ancestor of the vampire, or the "primordial moon", what they showed was pure "reproduction" and did not involve appetite, arrogance, and the need for identification. This is different from the previous part. The victim's performance is contradictory, and the rest of Everest's honorific title does not include the corresponding domain.

"This is in line with the characteristics of the 'demon' pathway. The 'Apostle of Desire' is an expert in similar fields... Could it be that the one who replaced the 'primordial moon' was really a high-ranking demon, or even the demon king who claimed to be the 'Dark Side of the Universe', sequence 0'Abyss'? This possibility is very high, but the problem is that it shouldn't present an illusory starry sky and bright stars, neither the 'moon' nor the 'Abyss' has anything to do with similar symbols..." The more Klein pondered The more I feel that this guess is problematic.

Amidst his thoughts, he suddenly thought of a concept.

A concept that often appears as an important content in the mystic knowledge he has come into contact with, but has never been described and explained in detail!

That is, "Star Realm"!

Except for a few organizations such as the Life School who believe in niche knowledge such as the "absolutely rational world", in most mysticism, the world is composed of "reality", "spirit world" and "star world".

Needless to say, "reality", the knowledge of the "spiritual world" is the foundation of many ritual magic and extraordinary abilities. Only the "star world" is basically blank in Klein's cognition.

"So, the illusory starry sky represents the 'star world', and the bright stars are some existence in the 'star world'? I have always suspected that the 'star world' is the residence of the true god, so it is not impossible for this symbolic picture to represent the 'primordial moon' Accept..." Klein stopped thinking about it, and while recalling the details of the previous few days, he waited for the results of his subordinates' investigation.

Time passed by, and Klein finally heard familiar footsteps going upstairs and approaching.

The blond secretary Lu Er'an knocked on the door and entered, lowered his head, and calmly reported:

"Your Excellency, General, you have found the Celestial Sect and captured their leader.

"This is the clue provided by Miss Cynthia's parents.

"This sect has been very active in Olavi in ​​recent years, with the purpose of not wearing clothes, returning to nature, and indulging in nature, and believes that human beings can obtain spiritual liberation in this state.

"Reproduction is a byproduct of that philosophy."

After a pause, Lu Er'an added:

"Their leader is a Extraordinary, the 'madman' of Sequence 8."

"madman"? The "Madman" of the "Prisoner" route? Something to do with the School of Roses? Well, there are two factions of "temperance" and "indulgence" within the Rose School of Thought, and the latter's philosophy is quite consistent with the situation on the scene... Klein was startled, but said calmly on the surface:

"Bring him here."
