[It is detected that the host has harvested the soul. 】
All the commotion almost stopped with a cry of "Lord Randall is dead!!"
Even Eve and her knights were stunned by the scene before them.
"......how so."
Eve stared at the gallows blankly, and saw that He Wen's eyes were exuding some kind of pale golden light. His expression was gloomy. After watching Randall cover his throat and fall in a pool of blood, he His eyes moved to the guard on the side.
The guard who sent his daughter and wife to the gallows now pulled out the sword from his waist and let out an angry roar.
"heresy!!"
This sword was originally aimed at He Wen, but the elf girl rushed towards the knight, trying to block the guard's sword for He Wen.
The guards won't refuse anyone who comes, since you want to die.
Then I'll send you on your way first.
He stabbed with a sword but missed.
At the last moment, the elf girl's body was suddenly lifted up by an invisible force.
"It's surgery time now. No one is waiting. Get out."
There was no emotion in He Wen's voice, his hand was gently hanging in the air, and the elf girl was thrown behind him with his movements.
"Heresy!! Devil!! Take your life!!"
This time there were three guards. Under the signal from the saint's eyes, they all drew their swords and rushed towards He Wen.
He Wen just glanced at the three knights with his golden eyes.
"They are all cancer cells. This body does not need these things."
His fingers hanging in the air slowly turned into sword fingers, and then he waved lightly.
The silver needle that pierced Randall's throat flew up instantly and went directly through the gaps in the armors on the chests of the guards. The silver needle drew an S line between the three guards, giving several people an Wear it right.
The three people's sword-holding hands stopped in mid-air.
After a moment, they all knelt on the ground, blood seeping from the armor and flowing to the ground.
Now the mob panicked.
"Monster!! Monster!!"
"What a monster!! This is heresy!! It's a devil!!!"
"Knights!! Aren't you guys guarding the country!! Hurry up!! Kill this demon!!"
The mob that was still attacking the princess's knights just now is now placing all their hopes on them.
Even the saint did not dare to approach He Wen easily.
She couldn't help but frowned as she looked at the dead remains of Randall and the three guards on the ground.
[It has been detected that the host is undergoing an operation. At present, the host's body has been transformed, the props it holds have changed, and the Jiuqu Huoluo Needle has been transformed into the Nine Heavenly Tribulation Needles. I would like to ask the host if he wants to continue the operation]
"The operation must go on."
He Wen turned around and looked at the saint and the mob behind her.
"There are lesions in multiple organs and preparations for removal surgery are required."
He Wen's body began to exude a black aura, and everyone who saw this scene opened their mouths in surprise.
Especially the saint.
She thought of something in her mind, a species that had become a legend in this era.
demon.
It is an evil existence that is more evil and powerful than the demons, but has been suppressed by the gods in ancient times.
Legend has it that the magic power of the demons comes from demons, and the demons were just agents of the demons in the beginning.
But now, the devil's true form is right in front of them, how can the saint not feel fear.
The elf girl was also frightened by He Wen's appearance and fell to the ground, and her body began to tremble.
He Wen slowly opened his hand, and nine silver needles appeared around him.
"Princess Eve!! This is a demon!! You and your knights have the obligation to protect the people of this country!! Please kill the demon!!"
The saint said sternly to Eve.
The others are also echoing.
"Yes!! Your Highness Princess!! We are all your subjects!! You should protect us!"
"You knights, don't you really want to help the evildoer? Are you all bewitched by the devil?!"
"Your Highness Princess!! Please kill the devil!"
This group of mobs has now turned into poor people who have no way to escape and can only cry for help in a hurry, completely forgetting that they had the courage to fight against these knights and even the princess just now.
"Your Highness, how to deal with it."
Lake whispered in Eve's ear.
"..."
Eve's hand held the shield tightly, and she never drew her sword until the end during the battle with the mob.
But now, looking at He Wen on the stage who exuded a black aura, her hand slowly grasped the hilt of the sword.
"You all stay where you are."
Then she walked to the gallows alone, passed the saint, passed the mob, passed the bodies of Randall and the three guards, and finally stood in front of He Wen.
"Dr. He Wen..."
After taking a deep breath, the princess spoke.
"...?"
He Wen tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't recognize Eve in front of him.
"I know that you are not a devil, and you will never hurt innocent people. Please, please stop for now. I will definitely seek justice from my father in this matter."
"justice!?"
"He killed Lord Randall!!"
"He killed mankind's greatest warrior, killed our hero!!"
"He must die!!!"
"Kill him!! Your Highness Princess!!"
"Long live Princess Eve Fast!!"
"Long live!!"
The crowd began to raise their fists and chant Eve's name, led by the saint.
The corners of the saint's mouth turned up slightly.
This is a stage, a stage for people to perform.
As long as she's on the side of justice with the Holy Cult, she can always choose another starring role.
Whether the starring role is Randall or Eve Fast, they will become their own pawns.
"Doctor Hewen, I swear to you in the name of Eve Fast, the fourth crown prince of the Kingdom of Talis, that I will definitely give you justice and give these people who died in vain."
He Wen stared at Eve with empty eyes and said lightly.
"It was observed that the white blood cells are working hard to resist the spread of the disease, but it is too late. The current white blood cells are too weak. She has no way to stop the decay of this body. I must remove it and retreat."
"Doctor He Wen! I am indeed very weak now! But I can petition my father! Thoroughly investigate the behavior of the holy religion in inciting riots! Please believe me, even if I die, I will definitely repay you and those who died tragically. Everyone is fair!"
Eve took a step forward, but the nine needles beside He Wen made no movement.
"The white blood cells are still working hard, but can you do it? This body is completely rotten. Only by completely removing the dead organs and re-transplanting other organs can this body survive."
"It can be done."
Although Eve couldn't understand what He Wen was talking about.
But no matter what kind of result He Wen wants, she will do it and must do it.
"...I understand. Since it is this body's own will, I don't have to interfere."
He Wen slowly lowered his raised hand, and his eyes gradually returned to clarity.
[Surgery interruption has been detected. This operation was unsuccessful and no reward was obtained. Current host race: Demon King species, level: Level 1. All holy doctor points have been converted into demon points. The current total points are: 2600 points.
A total of three souls were harvested during this operation, all of which were human.

He Wen looked at Eve in front of him and sighed deeply.
"...This road is difficult, Princess Eve."
"I know, I have always known, but I have the responsibility and mission of this country on my shoulders, and I cannot choose to let you take on all of this because of difficulties."
Eve slowly stretched out her hand to He Wen.
"Dr. Hewen... please come with me. I need you."
He Wen looked at Eve's outstretched hand.
The gloved hand was so petite, but it was still brandishing the weapon for what she was looking for.
"......Um."
He Wen also stretched out his hand, just when the two hands were about to hold each other.
A sound that broke through the air came from a distance.
Click——
A sound of shattering armor sounded in front of He Wen's eyes.
He Wen's hand stopped in mid-air.
Because he saw the smile on Eve's face in front of him disappear, replaced by endless doubts.
And on her chest, where the gryphon emblem was originally, an extremely sharp arrow suddenly appeared, and blood flowed down the girl's pure white breastplate.
