Chapter 352: Escape

Osman felt as if the sun was blocked by a dark cloud, and the light immediately dimmed.

The corners of his eyes twitched violently, and he sensed the deadly danger spreading toward him.

The dark mass seemed to have opened a hole in the bottomless abyss, and the strong attraction made it impossible for him to maintain his body balance, and he was involuntarily sucked into the black hole.

After a moment of surprise, Osman regained his composure. After more than a hundred years of papal career, coupled with the vast knowledge he had acquired, combined with the outbreak of the two laws just now, he immediately understood the current situation.

This is the annihilation force generated by the collision of two opposing laws, representing the ultimate death and destruction.

There are related records in his knowledge base, and similar scenes have been caused many times when the sun god and the moon god fought.

When this thought flashed through Osman's mind, his body had been sucked to the edge of the expanding black hole, and half of his arm had disappeared.

Behind him, the two faceless men were also pulled by this overbearing law vortex and flew to a position level with him.

Osman's eyes were filled with madness. A white bone knife stabbed out of his other arm, cut off the arm being pulled, and then leaned back slightly, slapping the backs of the two faceless men.

The borrowed recoil force gave him a chance to breathe.

The two faceless men used as springboards were swallowed up by the boundless darkness before they could make any sound, just like a stone falling into a deep pool without splashing even a wave.

Osman's body turned into a fire man emitting the law of bursting fire, desperately fleeing out.

This ability is called fire jumping, which can use the holy power elemental body and use the power of the law to achieve the effect of fast movement. It is an ability that can only be used by church priests at the fifth level, just like the flash ability of warlocks.

Under normal circumstances, the speed of this skill is as fast as lightning, and it can move a distance of 10 to 20 meters in the blink of an eye. But now it is flying out slowly, as if it has been cast into a slow motion spell.

"Hurry up, faster, faster."

With his heart pounding, Osman kept shouting in his mind. He had never expected that he, who was at the top of the fifth level, would be forced into this situation.

Klauen knew the range of the black hole. He saw that the enemy was moving slowly but was gradually escaping from the black hole's death space, so he activated the void rift twice in succession and bypassed the black hole to get in front of the enemy.

At this time, as long as he could slow down the enemy's flying speed, he would naturally be able to bury the enemy.

He took out two more talismans, but before he could activate them, he found that Osman's speed suddenly increased, as if he had escaped from the gravity of the black hole and then fled away from him.

Osman's body flashed red, and he moved about 20 meters in space. The enemy kept using flame jumps and quickly fled.

'Can't let the tiger go back to the mountain.'

Klauen knew in his heart that if he failed to capture the enemy this time and made him hide in the dark, the threat he faced would be very serious.

He flapped his wings suddenly and chased forward.

Osman was helpless against this annihilation attack. He was so frightened when he saw his opponent taking out something that could create annihilation attacks, that he fled forward without sparing his holy power.

When he turned his head and saw the enemy catching up, he immediately released the Ring of Fire, and saw a circle of red fire elements spreading out from him.

Dust and rubble were scattered, as if a sandstorm had come.

This skill is used to shake away approaching enemies and apply the effect of fire shock. If hit head-on, it is likely to be dizzy by the shock.

Klauen had previously checked all the fifth-level secret arts collected by the church in the library, and he wanted to try whether he could practice it.

He recognized this skill and immediately released the Void Rift, which could dodge attacks while moving forward.

Seeing that he could dodge attacks and get closer to him, Osman's eyes showed cold murderous intent.

This enemy's ability is very comprehensive. Not only does he have powerful attack methods, but he also has displacement secret arts, and this secret art actually ignores the influence of range skills.

You should know that the Ring of Fire seems not high, but in fact, the surging flame power blocks the air and forms an invisible elemental wall. Ordinary displacement skills cannot pass through the Ring of Fire at all.

Like the flame jump, it cannot pass through the blockade of the Ring of Fire and can only be pushed away.

After continuous use of the void rift and the consumption of bullet time, there is not much time sand left in the hourglass.

This moment is exactly the moment when he uses the moonlight to restore his spiritual power. Facing the surging Ring of Fire again, he has to temporarily avoid the edge and use his wings to fly in the opposite direction.

When the Ring of Fire completely spreads out, the flying dust in the sky blocks Clown's sight. He can only barely distinguish that the opponent has fled to the prayer hall of the church.

Clown activates the breath of the fire dragon, and the violent power is brewing in his fist. When the power accumulates to the critical point, he steps forward and hits the ground with a heavy fist.

He never thought that the first time he used Lushan Shenglongba in actual combat was to "remove dust".

I saw a new round of "sand storm" sweeping away the dust, and visibility improved a lot in an instant.

When his vision returned to normal, Clown flapped his rose-gold wings and rushed to the prayer hall.

"Hiss," Osman took a breath of cold air. The wound on his cut arm was corroded by the strange annihilation power, and the dripping blood turned into black liquid. You know, he cut off a little more at that time because he was worried about the sequelae.

He gritted his teeth, raised the bone knife again, and chopped off the whole arm.

"Huh!"

Osman let out a low roar, and the cold sweat on his forehead kept dripping like a stream.

Seeing the blood return to its normal color, he bared his teeth, and then urged the life source stored in his body.

After the wound was numb and itchy, a new arm grew quickly.

After he clenched his fist and felt the abundant power, he bared his teeth and said fiercely in his heart: 'Clown, I will remember you. ’

Osman passed by the wall, came to the back of the statue of the Lord of Fire, opened the mechanism in a secret location, and then used the Pope's seal to activate the magic circle.

"Activate defense mode and attack any enemy that comes."

As his voice fell, the eyes of the statue lit up with flames, and a mechanical voice sounded:

"Received the order, eliminate the invaders, and the magic circle is activated."

The huge statue, whose height was not far from the dome, started, and he moved forward with heavy steps.

The statue left, revealing a round metal plate engraved with a precise magic circle.

Osman took off his holy emblem and placed it in the groove in the middle of the stone slab, and the rune lines of the magic circle lit up one by one.

The metal plate quickly shrank, revealing a narrow passage, the torch inside was still emitting light, he jumped in without hesitation, and then the metal plate returned to its original state.

When Clown stepped into the prayer hall, he just caught a glimpse of Osman entering the underground passage, and the stone statue of the god actually rushed towards him waving a weapon.

"Found the intruder, execute the elimination plan."

Hermes' words rang out in the hall.

Crown glanced at the thick blood-stained magic circle on the ground, glimpsed the broken limbs and flesh in the corner, and glanced at the stone statue of the god rushing over. He felt that everything that happened here was so ridiculous.

"Found the intruder, execute the elimination plan."

The stone statue roared again, waving the stone weapon flashing with flames.

In the middle of the chest of the god stone statue is the core of his magic circle. There, Clown had used Thunder Fury to cut it down to only a thin layer of stone wall, and the spiritual light of the magic circle could be vaguely seen inside.

The dragon soul was ringing, and in the sound of dragon roars, Clown suddenly jumped up, twisted his body in the air to avoid the holy sword wielded by the stone statue, and then hit the stone statue's chest with Lushan Shenglongba.

He landed steadily on the ground, and naturally bent his legs to relieve the impact when he fell.

The core of the magic circle was shattered by the violent force, and the statue stopped moving. Without the protection of the magic circle, the statue began to fall apart.

First the head, then the limbs, as the body pieces fell off, the statue fell to the ground with a bang, smashing into the thick blood.

At this time, Flanders came in. He saw Clown slowly standing up and the broken statue, and couldn't help but cry out:

"Holy Lord of Fire."

The statue in the prayer hall is the largest statue of the gods, forged with the holy power of fire and living stones. In the hearts of believers, praying to the statue is equivalent to talking to the gods.

This statue that witnessed the establishment of St. Peter's Basilica collapsed, and his heart seemed to collapse.

Clown stood up and faced Flanders, saying:

"The statue regarded me as a bandit, so I didn't hold back."

How can you just take a beating without fighting back! Besides, although the statue was huge, it was still very agile. If it had attacked him like crazy, he would have been turned into a pool of meat paste if he hadn't been more skilled.

Flanders sighed and said:

"I know the situation of the statue. Only the Pope can activate it. Have you seen Osman?"

"Yes," Crown nodded.

"What happened to him?"

"He was polluted. There were obvious signs of pollution on his body. I can't be sure whether his consciousness is his own."

"There is no reason. How could he be exposed to the source of pollution in St. Peter's Basilica? Was he framed by some secret existence?"

Flanders scratched his head. He really couldn't think of the reason why the other party was polluted. Although he didn't like many of the other party's decisions, Osman still made certain contributions.

It is an indisputable fact that the church is prospering under the other party's leadership.

"Perhaps, Osman took the initiative to leave the church and get in touch with the pollution."

"What do you mean?"

Crown's eyes became sharp, and he said softly:

"Osman has become a fifth-level extraordinary person, and he is the best among them, otherwise he would not be able to escape."

Logically speaking, Osman should not be able to advance to the fifth level. This abnormal situation fully shows that Osman has a big secret. He must have used these secrets to make himself reach the advancement standard, but later some mistakes occurred and he became a polluted evil thing.

Clown dared to conclude that the church's soul detection array must have lost its effect long ago.

Flanders was stunned and tried to digest this shocking news. So, Osman deceived everyone!

After a short silence, Clown pointed to the innermost passage in the hall and asked:

"Where does that secret passage lead to? Do you know?"

Flanders came back to his senses and shook his head slowly:

"I don't know. Only the Pope knows such secrets. As far as I know, there are three secret passages in St. Peter's Basilica. Where they lead to is highly confidential. No one knows except the Pope."

Clown raised the Thunder Fury and ran to the back. He urged the Life Qi and broke the array in a short time.

The weapon passed through the metal plate, but it felt like there was something behind it.

He twisted it hard and cut the metal plate into pieces. The plate without the protection of the spell was not much different from rotten wood to him.

Flanders came over and saw the stone behind the metal plate, and said:

"It should be some kind of mechanism. If I am not mistaken, the passage has been completely blocked.

The secret passage is used for escape, and setting up a mechanism to block the road can stop the pursuers behind."

Crown shook his head, and it seemed that he could not catch up with Osman. He turned his head and said:

"Why are you the only one? Where are the others?"

"They are all in the side room. There are too many evil beasts. We tried our best to kill the evil beasts, but we also lost four people, and two were seriously injured. Those who can still fight should be on guard for the wounded. I will see if you can help."

Flanders paused and continued:

"I plan to wait for others to rest for a while, and then start searching for survivors."

Only with the help of more people can the church be rebuilt faster.

Crown nodded and said:

"You can do it with confidence. Now take me to see the wounded. Recently, I have taken time to study the Wind of Healing. Now I can use it as a healing priest."

The Wind of Healing has been upgraded to the third level by him, which should be stronger than most healing priests.

"It's great that you can use the healing wind," Flanders's sadness faded a little, "Archbishop Martin is seriously injured, do you have any water of life to use?"

Crown took out a bottle of water of life from the space ring and handed it to the other party: "You can take out another one."

He left a spare one, in case he was seriously injured one day, he could use the water of life to quickly recover from his injuries.

"By the way, how are you going to deal with the current situation? The Pope's defection has a huge impact on the reputation of the church."

"The most urgent task is to clean up St. Peter's Basilica, then search the streets and reorganize the Crusaders.

In addition, we must elect a new Pope as soon as possible to stabilize the situation.

Crown, you can no longer shirk your responsibilities in this critical moment."

Crown waved his hand and rejected the proposal:

"Forget it. I can't spare enough time to handle church affairs as Pope. Instead of throwing the work of handling church affairs to others, it's better to let others be Pope directly.

By the way, according to the church's scriptures, I am not qualified to succeed the Pope."

He didn't want to be Pope. This position was not attractive to him.
