The Rose School chapter in East Balam had a day they would never forget.
Since for ninety-nine percent of the members, their lives end tonight, the word "never forget" is absolutely correct.
When the sun rose early and the brilliant light of purification fell in the center of the city, the senior members of the Rose School, who were relatively optimistic and had not been directly purified into ashes in this wave of light, were still wondering whether it would be eternal. The angels of the Burning Sun Church launched a surprise attack, and who revealed the whereabouts of His Highness Sia, but after a moment of daylight, the coming night dispelled their speculations.
"His mother's!"
An indulgent demigod was purified in despair, with only one last word left: "This is an enemy attack!
” echoed in the night sky.
This inconspicuous small town of East Balam seemed to have suddenly become the center of the world. It was dawn, the wind was blowing, and it was night again. An unreasonable high tide occurred in the middle of the night. In just a few minutes, the tide flooded the private property of the indulgent party. Harbor, a huge amount of seawater rushed directly into the city.
The Eternal Fierce Sun wiped out the entire town with one blow. The surrounding hills, forests, and houses and buildings were all washed white, and no human corpses were left. Everything was purified until not a single bit was left.
Only a few buildings near Sioa still exist, and not all the people inside died.
Then the sunlight slowly faded away, and the night once again filled the sky, with stars twinkling, and everything just now seemed like an illusion.
After the sun returns to the star realm, the lingering knowledge and information around it also disappears.
In fact, the surrounding distant scenery quickly became illusory. This small town with only a few houses seemed to be separated from the surrounding world. The scene fluctuated and slowly became transparent and like a lake.
However, a certain star in the sky that did not belong to the goddess of the night kept flickering, not only emitting light on the night sky, but also shining continuously in Sioa's spiritual consciousness. The extremely high power blocked the actions of the goddess of the night, preventing her from successfully pulling Siya into his dream.
Once he enters the dreamland and faces the attack of the two gods, Si'a will definitely die.
When Si'a dies, the Sequence 1 characteristics will also be lost. The Mother Tree of Desire cannot let this happen.
At this time, Sia, who was in the center of the storm (double meaning), had just come to his senses.
She felt a fatal danger. This time it was not a perfunctory annihilation by one or two churches, but several gods working together! No wonder the warning from the "Bound God" could not reach his ears.
This is not a problem that can be solved by money. Someone really wants to invite her to the private seat in his underground sealing room!
The more dangerous it is, the more confused his thinking becomes. Si'er almost thought about the product introduction after he almost turned himself into a sealed object. But the roar of the "Bound God" in her mind once again woke her up. She ignored the subordinates and civilians around her who were still using the sealed objects to resist, and the human form that restrained her melted and collapsed.
She quickly turned into a huge tree nearly 100 meters high, and continued to grow. The surface was dark and sticky, as if it had been doused in petroleum.
On the "trunk", on the surface of the viscous black liquid, one after another bloodshot black and white eyes are rolling around. These eyes will instantly clear the mind of the people they see, and cast a "deformation curse", transforming the surrounding people. The soldiers turned into small animals and toys with no fighting power. But now she is fighting alone, and these crazy curses have caused devastating harm to her subordinates who were already struggling to support themselves.
The hundreds of weirdly protruding arms quickly extended around, some blocking the sky, and some sinking into the earth, as if they were trying to form a cage to trap themselves inside to resist attacks from the outside world.
All this happened very quickly, but the speed of the electric light was even faster. When the cage was about to be completed, several huge thunderbolts poured in from the gaps that had not yet been connected, tearing the more than half-completed cage into pieces, and once again let Sia's true form is exposed.
Countless silver lightnings traveled on the dark "trunk", causing Sioa great pain.
Immediately afterwards, she, who was more like a beast than a human, quickly gave all the pain to her subordinates, forcing them to help her bear the Storm Lord's attacks.
But how could these extraordinary beings, who were no more than demigods, endure the power of a true god? The silver lightning that danced on Sia's body spread out, wrapping everyone in it.
In just a few breaths, there was no longer a living person around Si'a.
It is nothing to treat subordinates and believers as consumables, and it is commonplace to beat up teammates. Sia didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, as long as she lived, she could raise the banner of the Mother Tree of Desire again. There were many extremists in the southern continent who were willing to respond to her call.
After finally evading the deadly attack of the Storm Lord, the revelation of the "Bound God" appeared in her mind again, making her aware of the breath of night and dreams that was about to touch her body. Knowing that the next wave of attacks was coming, Si'a acted quickly. The gaping mouth on her body opened wide at the same time, letting out bursts of strange and extremely painful roars.
There is another voice hidden in this roar, which is the "Bound God" controlled by the Mother Tree of Desire!
With the help of the Mother Tree of Desire, the painful roaring duo finally had some impact on the offensive of the Night Goddess and the Storm Lord. They shared their madness and pain, making the surrounding night no longer light, and the waves and storms also changed. It has to be slow and heavy, and the trajectory becomes clearly visible.
However, Sia's movements were still a step slower. The disaster spread by the goddess of the night in advance took effect, and the dream successfully touched her body. The eyes on her torso closed one after another, and she fell into an irreversible sleep.
She resisted the secret and the tsunami with all her heart, and could only watch half of her body lose control.
If you really fall into the dream weaved by the goddess of the night, you will never wake up again!
Sioa tried his best to stay awake, but the number of closed eyes continued to increase.
In the blink of an eye, half of his eyes were pulled into dreamland.
The dream world in Sioa's eyes became clearer and clearer, almost becoming a reality. She saw a sky full of stars and countless flowers paving the ground.
A dim-faced being stood between that day and that place, holding a crimson moon in his hands.
There are two hands holding a huge sickle like a crescent moon, waiting to cut themselves off.
Getting closer, getting closer, two-thirds of the eyes have been closed, the goddess of the night is walking slowly, and the crimson moonlight on the sickle is clearly visible.
Right now.
The eye that was closed at first suddenly opened again.
The black and white eyes turned up and down, and the black eyes slowly turned into cyan.
At the same time, Sia suddenly felt a cold breath appear in his body, like a snow wind blowing.
The second cyan eye opened, and then more and more eyes opened.
Si'a's chaotic thoughts suddenly disappeared without a trace. She strangely heard someone sneer in her ear, so she calmed down instantly, so calm that not even a little bit of nervousness and fear existed.
Then, the two-thirds of the eyes that were closed were all opened. The dream world in Siua's eyes disappeared without a trace, and turned into dozens of intricate thin lines. She seemed to suddenly understand. Those threads caught one of them.
This line of possibility represents "survival".
She chose this line without thinking, but shuddered after realizing it.
This line is placed so obviously, it's like a trap!
It just said "survive", but it didn't say how to "survive"!
Sure enough, her body suddenly started to move on its own. More than half of her body was immersed in unknown pollution, and her consciousness was pushed into a corner. But now Si'a had no room to resist. Once she tried to give her the power of the "Bound God" and the Mother Tree of Desire, Focus on dealing with the sudden appearance of consciousness, and the slowly approaching thunderstorm, tsunami and secrets will engulf you in an instant.
The power in Si'a's body suddenly became stronger, and hundreds of branch-like arms once again surrounded him in his direction, re-building the cage.
This time, her movements were beyond imagination, and the cage was completed almost in an instant. A huge wooden coffin, as if countless tangled wooden strips were entangled, surrounded Si'a in the middle.
The coffin shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally disappeared from the eyes of the two gods.
In the ruins of a city dozens of kilometers away, a normal-sized coffin appeared out of thin air and hit the ground heavily from mid-air.
The coffin cracked open, and a creature similar to humans rolled out. She was covered in black, and part of her body had black and cyan eyes. At the same time, huge brown branches continued to grow out of her body, removing those cyan Eyes poked out.
The two Outer Gods' taints fought against each other, and Si'a, the only carrier and medium, suffered the side effects of the increased power.
She was unconscious due to pain and unable to move due to pollution. She could only struggle and twist in the ruins as if she were alive, muttering to herself:
"Sacrifice..."
"Give me...a sacrifice..."
She clearly felt that the cold breath had invaded her brain. After a long time, Sia was forced to re-establish the shackles of the human form and hide herself behind this shell. While suppressing her indulgent desires, she also suppressed herself. Weird contamination in the body.
Yet no matter how much she tried to change her appearance, one eye remained cyan.
And that eye has no field of vision, or in other words, the field of vision does not belong to Si'a.
Her skin and hair were affected by the pollution of another alien god. Her skin quickly lost its luster, and her strange pale hair continued to grow, almost completely covering her normal brown-black hair.
"Sacrifice..."
She could only say: "Give me more sacrifices... stabilize my condition..."
Brown branches appeared around her again, and the branches strung Si'a up and trapped her in layers of restraints.

The ruins of the Oravi naval base.
Klein didn't know what happened in the outside world in these few minutes. During this time, he walked around the rest of the ruins and found nothing else.
So he took out the paper man, processed the traces on the scene, and lifted the restrictions of the spell. He woke up the servants who still had vital signs, so that the remaining guard members could confirm their identities.
Taking a few steps forward, Klein came to where Cynthia disappeared, bent down and picked up a necklace from the pile of torn clothes on the bed.
The necklace hung a knuckle-sized pendant, which was completely black and shaped like a shrunken rhinoceros horn. Its surface was extremely dull and covered with numerous cracks. Apart from a slight sense of evil, it lacked any spiritual brilliance.
"Is this the dangerous item that caused Cynthia's mutation? Because it has been connected to the existence that cannot be seen directly, it has completed its mission and injected all the power into Xinthia's body?" Klein based on the situation of the pendant and the previous I made preliminary guesses based on my experience.
He began to look for someone who could handle the matter. Unfortunately, the secretary took the first step. Klein had no choice but to recall the contents of the previous files and find a more reliable person among the survivors of the Guard. of.
Klein walked up to the black-haired guard and looked at him with a serious expression as he noticed him.
"Your Excellency, General!" The guard suddenly realized that there was someone behind him two seconds later, and immediately stood up straight in surprise and saluted.
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 treat the remaining people, and some immediately investigate the Celestial Sect on Olavi Island. They worship an evil god called the 'Mother Tree of Desire'. Well... check from the people around Cynthia .”
"I'm waiting for the report in the study."
The study is far away from the door, still there.
After saying that, he held the broken miniature rhinoceros horn pendant, turned around and left, entering the quiet study.
As the supreme commander of the Zhongsunian Navy, he still has absolute authority when facing his own guards and subordinates, local police system and naval base members on Olavi Island. There is no need to investigate on his own, and there are plenty of manpower to arrange it. .
Demigods only need to be on guard against accidents and wait for news, no need to rush around!
In the study, Klein listened to the chaotic footsteps and frightened screams, questions, and exchanges outside, and the bright starry sky and the bright star bloomed in his mind involuntarily.
"What does this really mean?"
Klein frowned and sat on the armchair behind the desk, his figure immersed in the darkness brought by the curtains.
He quickly made certain associations, because the myths and legends of Silver City and Emlyn White's descriptions of the situation of the vampires allowed him to confirm that the "Moon" pathway had partial authority to "reproduce and reproduce", which was in line with Cynthia's intention. It is more consistent with the performance.
While his thoughts were swirling, he suddenly thought of a concept.
A concept that often appears as an important part of the occult knowledge he comes into contact with, but has never been described or explained in detail!
That is, "Star Bound"!
Except for a few organizations such as the School of Life who believe in niche knowledge such as the "absolutely rational world", in most occult sciences, the world is composed of "reality", "spiritual world" and "star world".
Needless to say, "reality", the knowledge of the "spiritual world" is the basis of many ritual magics and extraordinary abilities. Only the "star world" is basically blank in Klein's cognition.
"So, the illusory starry sky represents the 'Star Boundary', and the bright stars are some existence in the 'Star Boundary'? I have always suspected that the 'Star Boundary' is the residence of the true God, so it is not impossible that this symbolic picture represents the 'Primordial Moon' Accept..." Klein stopped thinking about it and recalled the details of the previous few days while waiting for the investigation results of his subordinates.
As time passed, Klein finally heard footsteps approaching upstairs.
The black-haired officer just knocked on the door and entered. He lowered his head and calmly reported:
"Your Excellency, the Admiral, has found the Celestial Body Sect and captured their leader."
"This is a clue provided by Miss Cynthia's parents."
"This sect has been quite active in Orawi in recent years. It aims at not wearing clothes, returning to nature, and indulging in nature. It believes that humans can achieve spiritual liberation in this state."
"Reproduction is a by-product of this philosophy."
After a pause, the black-haired officer added: "Their leader is an Extraordinary, a 'madman' from Sequence 8."
"madman"? "Madman" on the "Prisoner" path? Related to the Rose School? Well, there are two factions within the Rose School: "Temperance" and "Indulgence", and the latter's philosophy is quite consistent with the situation at the scene... Klein was shocked, but on the surface he said calmly:
"Bring him here."
After saying this, Klein unexpectedly felt that some of the constraints on his body disappeared.
Klein was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened.
——His contract with Admiral Amilius ended suddenly just now.
TBC
——————
Well, both are more successful.
I happened to see a comment saying that the protagonist of this book is the enemy of the world, which made me laugh... Decay: I pissed off all of you.
Another rather funny comment was that Edward had the skin of a demon and could not be considered a demon. (Judging the devil actually depends on the path rather than the deeds, the devil of fundamentalism)
