"Oh God! Is it really a witch? Look! She can fly! She is really flying!"
After hearing the clear and sonorous voice of the little girl that suddenly rang out, the square was quiet for a short while, and then suddenly started to become noisy again.
"Where? Where? Wow! It can really fly? I saw it too, it's really a witch!"
"Aha! I saw it too! I saw it too!"
After a while, the large crowd of onlookers began to commotion.
They were pushing and shoving, trying to squeeze in and get closer to see the flying little witch more clearly. A living flying witch is a real rarity. It is better than being tied to a stone platform. It is much rarer to get burned.
"Don't squeeze! Bastard! I'll break your neck!"
"ah!!!"
"Don't block the road, get out of the way! I want to see what the witch looks like!"
The crowd began to surge. Now, the soldiers' muskets and bayonets were no longer able to maintain order. Even the soldiers did not bother to maintain order. Instead, like ordinary people, they raised their heads and looked at The little witch flying above.
The church had burned witches for so many years, but they had seen too many so-called witches burned to death on those racks.
However, they have never seen any of those so-called witches know witchcraft! At most, they are nothing more than powerless curses before death.
Although the church has specifically explained this, saying that the witches lost their ability to be witches and the magic power to perform witchcraft because they were doused with holy water, the people obviously do not buy this statement too much. It's just that I'm afraid of the power of the church and I don't dare to gossip too much.
Over the years, watching the burning of witches turned into a festive entertainment activity for them. As for whether the person burned by the church was a witch, they no longer cared, and would not ask any more questions. At most, they would just talk about it with gloating.
Some people who think deeply even think that there are no witches in this world, and everything is just a conspiracy of the church! Because no one of them has ever seen or heard of a witch who can cast magic. In their opinion, can a witch who cannot cast magic still be called a witch? This idea is still very popular among some enlightened people or intellectuals!
But today was different. Now, when they saw the little girl slowly floating in the sky towards the burning platform, they finally believed that there really were witches in this world... …
Up to now, people were just rioting out of curiosity, and some even wanted to squeeze in and get a closer look.
They didn't think about running for their lives, they just marveled at each other, pointed at the little witch floating in the sky, and talked about their opinions.
Some sailors were even shouting loudly. They were very excited. Today, they encountered such a magical scene here. When they float on the ship in the future, some of them will be able to boast!
"Oh! God...Norrington, are you sure I saw it right? That...is there really a witch? Is she flying?"
Governor Weatherby Swan stood up from his seat all of a sudden. He was staring at the flying little girl in the sky with his mouth open. This situation made him a little unacceptable in a short time.
"Soldiers! Form up! Be alert!"
Brigadier General Norrington, who was calm in the face of danger, was the first to react. Then, he jumped directly off the viewing platform, drew out the short-handled musket from his waist, and gave orders to the soldiers.
As a soldier, he traveled across the ocean with the fleet and hunted down many pirates. Naturally, he had witnessed some supernatural events. Therefore, after seeing the flying little witch, he Reasonable arrangements were made as soon as possible.
Following his order, dozens of nearby red-robed lobster soldiers who did not need to maintain order quickly ran to the front of the viewing platform and quickly formed three neat horizontal lines. At the same time, they put their muskets on their shoulders and raised their guns. Aiming at the little witch floating in the air.
After seeing the soldiers lined up, Brigadier General Norrington did not issue an attack order. He just frowned and looked at the flying little girl. For a moment, he was a little undecided.
Little Annie had actually noticed the soldiers who were lined up over there and aiming their guns at her, but she didn't pay attention to the soldiers who were aiming at her. After putting on a shield to protect herself from arrows, She flew directly in front of the bald priest Jonathan who was holding a torch.
Just floating in mid-air, looking down at the priest in front of her with her head lowered, little Annie's eyes began to become a little cold. Her intuition, which has always been unreliable, told her that this bald old man must be a very bad person! Since her intuition tells her that the other party is a bad person, then it must be so, and it doesn't mean that it is not!
Anne looked at the other person's shaved head and the ring of hair under his head with disgust. She thought, this must be bald, right? How do you say that? Ten bald and nine bad? Look at his words and deeds, and look at his bald head, he must be a bad guy, for sure!
It's a pity that little Annie doesn't know the special magic detection camp or evil detection in a certain world. Otherwise, if she throws a detection spell at it, she can see that the priest's name must be red and purple. kind!
"Hey! You thief and bald old man, let me tell you, I am a real witch. Do you want to come and see me?"
Anne carelessly floated down between Charlotte who was tied to the cross and the bald priest, with a wicked smile on her lips, looking at each other leisurely.
"I am a witch, and you are here to burn me!"
Charlotte on the cross had already lowered her head and closed her eyes to wait for death. She had long been mentally prepared to meet her upcoming tragic fate!
She secretly swore that she would never scream even a little bit in front of these villains. This would be her best and last fight! It was her last resistance to a world that had disappointed her so much!
Therefore, when she lowered her head, she bit down on a strand of her blond hair, so that when the flames were engulfed, she would not make any noise that would please the villains!
She will never compromise in this dark world! She also cursed this dirty world! Curse this evil church that persecuted her family and destroyed her family!
"..."
After waiting for a long time, Charlotte was completely desperate. She had been closing her eyes and waiting for the flames to come, but she did not feel any pain when the flames burned her body. In addition, just now, she seemed to have heard something in a daze. The voice of a little girl and the noise of the crowd around her?
What happened again? Why don't they come and burn themselves?
This made Charlotte a little confused, so she opened her eyes again with difficulty and raised her head.
This is……
Charlotte was surprised to find that the back of a little girl was blocking her front, confronting the evil priest.
More importantly, the other party's body is actually floating in the air? Then, she heard the naughty words from the little girl. This little girl actually claimed to be a witch? It turns out that there are really witches in this world?
"Hmph! You evil witch! In the light of the Lord, your witchcraft will be useless!"
Although what happened in front of him was far beyond his imagination, Bishop Jonathan still pretended to be calm, suppressing the fear in his body and the idea of turning around and running away.
After calming down, he threw away the torch he was holding, turned around with a ferocious expression and snatched out a glass bottle from his entourage's luggage, which contained the holy water that had been worshiped by believers in the church and blessed by himself.
"Accept purification! Evil existence!"
After pulling open the stopper of the glass bottle, the bishop poured the holy water inside directly towards the little girl's head.
These holy water were originally prepared to purify the ashes of witches after burning them. This was the church's usual procedure after burning witches. As for whether these holy water were useful to the flying witch in front of him, he was not sure. Anyway, there is no better way now, so you have to try it, right?
"Tch! Is this your trick? Don't try to lie to me. Is this the so-called holy water?"
Little Annie stretched out her hand, and the holy water poured over her was directly manipulated by her, and then quickly condensed into a small water ball floating on the tip of her white and tender index finger.
Little Annie was very puzzled. This was obviously just a ball of ordinary sewage, so where was the holy water? Real holy water, she had seen the priests of Lordaeron use it in the world of Azeroth!
Besides, even if it’s real holy water, it’s useless if you pour it on yourself, right? She is not an undead or a creature with negative energy. What is the use of this bald old man pouring all this dirty water on himself?
"Here, give it back to you."
After realizing that this ball of water was just a ball of ordinary sewage, little Annie didn't even think about it. She flicked her fingers and hit the water ball directly on the opponent's bald head, directly drenching the opponent until he was soaked in water. .
"Damn! Come on, come on! Catch her! Catch her quickly and crucify her!"
Jonathan, who had his face poured with holy water, finally came to his senses and staggered back several steps.
He finally understood that the little witch in front of him seemed to be more than he could deal with with his tricks, so he quickly became angry and started to call his men, asking them to go forward and catch her.
After receiving the bishop's order, a dozen church members wearing black robes took out their weapons, either holding chains or hammers and surrounding Anne.
"Everyone, come together! Catch her, don't let her fly away!"
A group of church thugs began to pounce on him brandishing their own weapons. They had just looked at it for so long, and seemed to realize that this little witch didn't look too powerful.
Apart from being able to fly and having some weird tricks to manipulate objects, the opponent doesn't seem to be much of a good person! Maybe they can catch her? This is a genuine witch. Catching her will be a great achievement. Maybe she can also report it to the European Church?
"Hey! Did you attack just now? Then, now it's my turn to fight back!"
Anne smiled softly, and then a scorching fireball as big as a head quickly appeared on her free right hand. Then the fireball suddenly split into more than a dozen. Before anyone could react, She threw it directly at the church thugs who surrounded her.
"ah!!!"
"Help!!!"
“God, help me!!!”
"Water! Someone give me some water!!!"
…
A group of black-clothed thugs were instantly hit by fireballs and their whole bodies burned violently. It was as if someone poured kerosene on their bodies and lit them on fire.
Then, a group of them rolled and fluttered, wailed, and screamed. A dozen firemen rolled around on the high platform and fled. Their miserable situation even scared the onlookers to retreat suddenly. Large distances.
This is actually because little Annie deliberately lowered the power of the Shattering Fire. She thinks, don't these people like to burn witches? Then, she would satisfy them and slightly reduce the power of the spell, letting those flames burn slowly and gently, so that they could play longer.
Look, isn’t little Annie very kind? Anyway, she felt that she had always been a good girl.
"you you you……"
Seeing that his men turned into more than a dozen human-shaped torches in the blink of an eye and were burned by the flames, howling and running wildly, Bishop Jonathan was so frightened that he even started to tremble when he spoke. This little witch seemed a little too cruel, and he had already planned to prepare Going to run away.
This kind of terrifying existence is definitely not something that he, a small regional bishop who was sent to the New World to preach, can deal with. Perhaps, he should report it directly to the church?
"Oops? I almost forgot about you. Then, this fireball is yours!"
Little Annie realized that just now she had forgotten about this bald villain who looked the worst and the most bad-tempered, so when he turned around and was about to run away, she immediately hit him in the back with another small fireball.
"No!!!"
Another burst of heart-rending wailing sounded, and then, on the stone platform, a new Pyroman appeared on the stone platform, which was still able to move and scream. The original dozen or so had now begun to fall to the ground motionless. .
Bang!
There was a dull sound of a gunpowder gun. I don't know which musketeer misfired or trembled and pulled the trigger. A round lead bullet left his barrel in an instant and rolled and roared, directly towards the still floating platform. Little Annie, who was at least a yard high on the ground, shot away.
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang! …
As if they had received the command to fire from their superiors, when the other royal musketeers heard the gunshot, they all began to aim at the little witch on the high platform and opened fire. Countless gunpowder smoke drifted from the muzzle of the gun. Floating up, at least hundreds of red and rolling spherical lead bullets were fired towards the high platform.
"Everyone, stop firing!!"
Before he even gave the order to fire, these bastards actually fired a round of volley without authorization. Brigadier General Norrington was so angry that he began to shout loudly and ordered his royal soldiers to stop.
Then, he had time to look at the top of the high platform. There had just been a volley of hundreds of musketeers, and the place was shrouded in thick smoke from burning gunpowder. He didn't know what happened to the little witch. He thought, with this level of close range shooting, even a witch should die, right?
"Wow! Are you trying to smoke me to death?"
After the thick smoke, a little girl's clear voice came out. Then, she seemed to use some magic to directly dispel the choking smoke, and then everyone could clearly see her current situation.
"This, this, this...how is this possible?"
After the smoke was blown away, Brigadier General Norrington was immediately stunned!
He only saw that the little girl was still floating in the mid-air on the high platform, and her body was surrounded by hundreds of red and steaming lead bullets. Those were his soldiers. Those bullets that were just fired? They were just like that, as if they had hit invisible glass, and then they were floating around the little girl's body?
"I have already said that she belongs to a witch! These bullets of yours cannot hurt me! Now, I will return them to you."
Anne felt that they must not know what the word witch actually meant. Do they really think that they were like the ones they burned before?
However, she didn't have time to explain so much to them. Now that they had attacked her, she had to be mentally prepared for her to fight back. Now, it didn't matter whether they were bad guys or not!
"Let's go back!"
Little Annie snapped her fingers, and then, those round lead bullets that were still emitting heat shot back at the same speed as when they were fired, knocking down the soldiers who had just shot at her. In a pool of blood.
Here in the square, except for the soldiers who were maintaining order and who had not had time to shoot, those who had just fired, more than a hundred of them fell down immediately. They just groaned and collapsed on the ground. The blood began to soak through their originally red clothes...
"It's murder! Run for your life!"
I don't know who roared first, and then, the stunned onlookers immediately turned around and ran towards the street entrances in all directions like a group of frightened rabbits.
Even the big shots on the auditorium began to scream and roll off the stage one by one.
At this moment, they did not appear more noble than others. They were just like the citizens who were joining in the fun, showing the same ugliness and running around, wishing their parents would give them more legs. Come!
The whole square began to become more and more chaotic, with citizens running for their lives, nobles calling for help from their entourage, soldiers at a loss, and various commanders who could no longer find their men.
"Hurry up! You idiot, organize yourself and gather in formation! Fight back! We are going to fight back!"
Brigadier General Norrington was still loudly maintaining order among the soldiers and asking them to gather and continue to fight back. In his mind, the opponent was just a little witch. Even if she could set fire, reflect bullets, and have some strange spells, then So what?
The royal soldiers were here in this square. Some of them had just died or were injured, but there were still nearly a thousand of them. Besides, they still had cannons. He didn't believe it. A little witch could still be in Port Royal. , is it turning the world upside down in his territory?
…
The chaotic battle continues...
Charlotte just stared blankly at the little girl who was standing in front of her and showing off her power. This...could it be that the goddess of fire came down to earth to save herself?
It must be...because, in the next moment, Charlotte only saw flames...flames...still flames! The flames were flying all over the sky... They just flew out of the little girl's body out of thin air. Some continued to surround the little girl like elves; some directly attacked and burned all the church's lackeys and accomplices. The struggling humanoid torch...
The royal soldiers continued to fight back. Countless bullets whizzed towards the little girl, but they all seemed to be blocked by an invisible transparent wall. Then, these bullets actually flew back one after another. Those bullets flew back. The soldiers who launched the attack screamed and were hit by their own bullets, and fell in a pool of blood...
I don’t know how long it took, but when everything calmed down, Charlotte discovered that in the square in the middle of the street, apart from herself and this little girl who suddenly appeared like a flame goddess, there were already There is no one left alive...
All the onlookers had fled long ago, and the people from the church here seemed to have been burned to ashes without exception... The entire square was filled with blood and corpses, and it was a mess... And now all that is left here seems to be bright red blood and burning ashes. It seems that all the more officers and soldiers have been beaten away?
Is this the true power of witches? Fighting a city's army with one person?
At this moment, a certain string in Charlotte's heart seemed to be touched... If, if she had had this extraordinary power before this, she would have been able to protect the people she wanted to protect, right?
At this moment, she seemed to have made some kind of decision.
Therefore, after being untied by little Anne, Charlotte just straightened up her appearance slightly, then dragged her injured body and slowly knelt down to Anne, then opened her hands and deeply He fell to the ground.
"Great goddess of fire... I, Charlotte Miles, swear to be loyal to you forever! Believe in you! And follow you forever! Until the end of the world..."
"Please give me the strength to accept me as a humble servant..."
From this moment on, Charlotte Miles swore that she would serve her god until death!
Her family is gone, everything is gone... Her life was saved by the goddess, so from now on, she will live only for her goddess!
"Eh? What are you doing? She's not a goddess, she's far from it!"
Annie was startled by the other party's actions and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up. In fact, she was really not a goddess. She could only be regarded as a demigod at best? High level demigod? The peak of demigods?
She doesn't know... She never cares about these things. Anyway, from Annie's point of view, doesn't strength and other things increase with age?
She was like this when she was a child. She never went out to practice or anything like that. Even if her mother Amorin forced her, she just dealt with it. From childhood to now, she has suddenly become a hero by growing taller. of. Then it continued to grow, and when she was eight years old, she inexplicably became a demigod. And now, it seems that she is almost at the peak of demigods, right?
However, as long as the power is enough, she doesn't want to care about how far she can grow in the end, no matter whether it is a true god or an evil god. It's very troublesome to think about it! If she had time to think about this, she might as well go play!
