Act 262 Chaos (Part 1)
The words of the Patriarch of the Sheep-Headed Cult who suddenly appeared were like a spark falling into the boiling oil, igniting the anger in the hearts of the Sheep-Headed Cultists with a bang. They had already fallen into unrest and confusion because of the failure of Akentu's arrival. In a manic mood, after hearing the words of the patriarch, an angry scream immediately sounded in the hall:
"Hadran been invaded by heretics?"
"Kill them!"
"They are the culprits who angered Lord Akentu!"
The Patriarch was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He took out a gray cloak and said: "The heretics have invaded Lord Akentu's domain and soiled the Holy Blood of Dusk. I ask you to catch those heretics—— "
After saying that, he glanced towards the hall and met Brando's eyes hidden under the hood. Brando's heart trembled, and he suddenly thought that he had been exposed. He was very surprised, how did these people detect the relationship between Fang Qi and himself?
But what was faster than his thinking was that in fact, the moment the other party looked at him, he had already lifted his robe, revealing the dark golden blade underneath - the blade of the Holy Sword Odysseus.
The patriarch stared with wide eyes at Brando's sudden action of pulling out a sword from under his robe. He was just casually looking in this direction: The action of the congregant drawing the sword was that of an experienced hand. Judging from his Judging from his actions, it was obvious that he was not responding to Lord Akentu's call.
There are intruders here!
Alarm bells rang in the Patriarch's heart, and he was about to speak when suddenly a childish voice came from the hall: "The heretics are there!"
There was just a crisp bang, and Fang Qi was shocked to see a jar falling in a parabola at his feet, smashing to pieces. Before he could realize what the earthen jar was, he saw a puff of white smoke coming out of the broken jar.
In the darkness, no one could tell clearly who had spoken, but the sound of the broken jar seemed to break the last string in the hearts of the fanatical believers, and everyone subconsciously looked in that direction. I saw that the hall was filled with smoke, as if someone had thrown a smoke bomb in the middle of the crowd.
"There are infidels!"
“There are infidels among us!”
The fanatical believers immediately let out bursts of screams and angrily pushed in that direction, as if to evict the people who were causing chaos in the crowd. However, their move failed to improve the situation. On the contrary, it made the hall even more chaotic. Everyone was pushing and shoving. In order to compete for a forward position and to be able to perform better in front of Lord Akentu, some people even started fighting, and the fighting soon turned into A fight broke out, and the fight evolved into a brawl. There was chaos in the hall, and the believers in front and behind trampled each other. There were screams for a while.
As soon as Brando drew out his sword, he found that the scene had become like this. He couldn't help but be a little stunned for a moment. The little girl's voice didn't sound like Huang Huo's voice, but who else was trying to create something besides them? confusion?
However, this sudden scene just did him a favor. He calmed down and looked around, and suddenly realized that no one seemed to notice him at all. He was originally dressed as a Sheep-Headed Cultist. Even if he drew his sword, the fanatical believers nearby thought he was just responding to the Patriarch's call.
He glanced at the sheep-headed cultist not far away from whom he had previously obtained a lot of information. The man was blushing and waving his hands, trying to squeeze into the crowd. He thought for a moment, then immediately grabbed Delphine's hand and stepped back. Huang Huo and Mr. Liu in the crowd did not care about protecting themselves. Magdale was a little worse, but his location was too far away from the nun and princess. I couldn't take care of it for a while.
Although the crowd seemed to be pushing in the direction where Fang Qi was, Brando was not too worried. After all, even if Fang Qi was unreliable, it was not something that ordinary members of the congregation could do.
The Patriarch of the Sheep-Headed Cult did not notice Brando's movements, because the smoke that suddenly rose up and caused chaos just blocked his line of sight from the hall. He obviously didn't expect this to happen,
He was stunned for a moment, and then he became furious and said:
"You idiots, stay behind!"
He jumped to his feet and cursed angrily, while instructing his followers and guards to separate the crowd. But at this moment, the patriarch suddenly caught sight of a small figure retreating quickly along the direction of the temple wall. , in the opposite direction of the crowd, heading towards the back door of the temple.
The Patriarch was excited in his heart and suddenly remembered his mission. He didn't care about the guy he saw earlier who seemed to be a pagan intruder. He pointed in that direction and screamed: "It's her. Go catch her. Don't worry." Let her run away!”
Lian Zheng stumbled and ran towards the back door of the hall. She couldn't help but tremble when she heard the scream, but her steps couldn't help but become two minutes faster. Root shouted from under her hood: "You've been discovered, run!"
But she had just climbed onto the podium when she heard an angry roar: "Damn infidels, die!"
I saw that the high-level cultist who had presided over the ceremony on the altar had his eyes completely red, and he was holding the ritual sacrificial dagger in his hand as he rushed towards this direction with a distorted face.
Lian's face turned pale with fright. In her panic, she forgot that there was a high-ranking priest of the Sheep-Headed Cult on the podium, and her hands and feet could not help but feel cold for a moment. But at this moment, a fiery red light shot out from her hood, hitting the dagger in the hand of the high-ranking priest. There was a sharp "ding" sound, and the dagger flew out from the hand of the high-ranking priest. Nailed on a nearby pillar.
The high-ranking priest held his hand and screamed, and his whole arm was on fire.
At this time, Brando happened to look back and see this scene. He felt the Odyssey in his hand beat faintly. He subconsciously turned around and saw the high-ranking priest turning into a torch.
"Lute?"
As soon as Brando saw the sword light, he realized that it was obviously the sword light of the little fairy Lute. He had seen it once outside the elemental barrier, and Bai Wu also told him that the latter The power of the sword is actually projected from the holy sword Odysseus, so it is not surprising that the Flame Blade can sense it.
But in the chaos, the little goblin Root obviously didn't hear Brando's cry. He killed the high-ranking priest with one sword. When he turned around and saw Lian still in a daze, he couldn't help but get angry and reminded him: "Stop being in a daze. Get out of this place quickly, if we encounter that demon's clone again, we will both die!"
Only then did Lian react. She didn't have time to be grateful or afraid, and quickly got up from the ground on hands and knees, carefully avoiding the high-ranking priest who was rolling on the ground wailing, and ran towards the back door behind the podium.
But sometimes, the more afraid of something, the more likely it is that she will encounter something. Originally, she had been careful enough and stayed far enough away from the high-ranking priest, but the sheep-headed cultist suddenly got the strength from nowhere and screamed. He suddenly grabbed her ankle with his left hand.
The little girl screamed. How could her strength be comparable to that of a high-ranking priest of the Sheep-Headed Cult, let alone the power that the latter burst out before his death? She immediately fell to the ground, even the little girl in the hood All the goblins fell out.
Lute was caught off guard and fell several times on the dusty wooden floor of the temple before he got up in disgrace. When he looked back, he was immediately anxious because he saw that the Goat-Headed Cultist who was covered in fire was actually grabbing him. Lian's calves pulled her back desperately, as if to hug her, and the two of them died together.
It only took a second or two, and even he had no time to save him.
But at this moment, there was a sudden roar in the hall, and a wave of air swept across from the center of the hall. The air wave passed by the lecture platform, passed by the high-ranking priest who was grabbing Lian, passed by the little goblin Lute, and immediately swept the three The man flew out and hit the wall hard on one side.
It turned out that Fang Qi among the crowd was finally bothered by the followers who kept flocking to him. He no longer cared about hiding. He directly raised his strength to the highest level, and the surging elemental power was immediately pushed in all directions; for a time, There was an expanding shock wave in the hall, exploding from the inside out. For people like Brando, this shock wave was only slightly more violent than a strong wind. It had nothing but the ability to blow their hair. Influence.
But for ordinary believers, this shock wave has become an unmatched force. Those sheep-headed believers closest to the center were the first to be unlucky. They were unable to resist at all and were directly swept away by this force from the inside out. , bumped into the people behind, and the people behind followed them, falling down one after another like dominoes. The Sheep-Headed Cult suddenly suddenly bloomed in the center.
And his unintentional blow just saved Lian's life. The little fairy Lu Te was caught off guard and hit his head on the wall on the side of the pulpit. He was dizzy, but thinking that Lian was still in danger, he ignored it that his whole body seemed to be falling apart. He turned over and got up from the ground. I just wanted to find the location of the little girl.
But he saw a figure passing by him quickly. His eyes widened, and he saw that figure suddenly rush towards the high-ranking priest next to Lian, and hit him with his head, wrapping half of his body in flames. The high priest knocked himself off the pulpit.
The high-ranking priest originally only had half his life left, but was swept away by the shock wave. Now he was knocked off the high platform, his head hit the ground, and he fainted immediately, and his breath was completely lost under the raging flames.
Then Root saw the figure stop and pull up Lian who was sitting on the ground. He heard Lian's surprised voice: "Sister!"
