Da da da--
Only the sound of footsteps echoed in a certain corridor of the church. The surrounding lights were very bright, making it seem like there was no darkness at all. Father Louis led the way, getting more and more remote, gradually getting away from the crowd, and even, in the end, could not be seen. The figure of the white knight.
"Where are you taking me? Father Louis."
If there is no end if this goes on, Jiang Chenchuan couldn't help but ask aloud.
The priest stopped.
"You are not a believer of the Dawn Goddess."
The priest suddenly spoke.
The inexplicable question left Jiang Chenchuan a little confused.
"What if I am?"
"Please recite Chapter 8, Section 16 of the Book of Dawn."
"..."
Jiang Chenchuan just wanted to cover his face and surrender.
It seems that only faith cannot be faked.
"No matter what your purpose or reason for coming here, go ahead and leave from here. I don't want to hurt people who have nothing to do with Dawn Church."
Father Louis turned around and seemed to be observing Jiang Chenchuan.
This gave Jiang Chenchuan a strange feeling. The holy white robe was no longer holy, but the holy soul was still holy.
"Father, what do you mean by this?"
Jiang Chenchuan was full of vigilance. He sensed the danger, but he didn't know where the "danger" came from.
"After all, we must be prepared and wait for the darkness to fall. After all, we must be prepared and wait for the redemption of the dawn."
Father Louis spoke in ecstatic words and walked along the corridor. His long robe did not seem to fit him that well. Everything was obviously normal, but a terrifying coldness crept up Jiang Chenchuan's spine.
He didn't know why he was afraid. Maybe he knew what was going to happen but he didn't know anything about it.
Something is going to happen...
Just tonight,
Inside this church.
Jiang Chenchuan clenched the skeleton cane in his hand and looked at the priest's back as he walked further and further away, thinking that the other party seemed to want to spare his life, but he didn't appreciate it at all.
You have to go back quickly!
"You can't save them."
Father Lewis stopped at the end of the corridor, looked at Jiang Chenchuan's turned back, and said.
"I can see that you are different from those people. Your eyes are very pure, and you don't have that kind of obsessive desire and worship. Please, I don't want to be a complete bad person."
Hearing Father Louis' words, Jiang Chenchuan stopped in his tracks to leave. He turned his head and looked at the priest with doubts on his face.
The cold moonlight appeared out of nowhere, emerging from the clouds and shining on the pure white robe. Father Louis lifted his hood and revealed his face.
It was an unimaginable face.
It was hideous and terrifying, no longer like a normal person. Most of it was trapped in the darkness, and it was unknown what kind of organs it was. It was still squirming in the darkness, trying to break free, and there was still a faint purple-red aura of power.
"Sequence eight, crime..."
Jiang Chenchuan recognized the sequence of power contained in Father Louis's body at a glance. Of course, this was also related to his professional intuition in his previous life.
"When did you..."
Jiang Chenchuan wanted to ask how the clergy in the church came into contact with such dangerous serial relics and were corrupted to such an extent.
"Sure enough, you don't know anything. Naive believers will always believe in faith, unless one day the blade of faith pierces themselves!"
Father Louis roared in a distorted manner, with anger and hatred. At this moment, Jiang Chenchuan heard a commotion coming from the direction of the cathedral. It seemed that something rushed into the church, and several shrill screams were heard.
"Look, I saved your life."
Father Louis had a "you have to thank me" tone.
"You are not Father Louis! Who are you anyway?"
Jiang Chenchuan suddenly understood something. This was a premeditated crime, taking advantage of the important time of the secret gathering to destroy something.
"Who I am is not important. What is important is what I am going to do and what you are going to do. Or, go get a better understanding of what Dawn Church is doing!"
"The Church of Dawn...did...what?"
Jiang Chenchuan suddenly thought that the reason why the other party let him go was because he saw that he was not a follower of Alona.
What an irony.
"I gave you a chance, but you gave up on your own. If you survive, you may be able to investigate the truth yourself."
Father Louis put his hood back on, shrouding his terrifying face in shadow again. He seemed to know what was going to happen next, and he left in a hurry without wanting to stay too long.
This time, the situation was beyond Jiang Chenchuan's control. He had two clear choices before him: go back to save people or escape with the priest.
In fact, according to Jiang Chenchuan's character, he doesn't know how to choose and has no choice.
…
The pure world turned into a purgatory on earth in an instant. Deformed monsters appeared out of nowhere and occupied the Cathedral of the Dawn. They broke through the doors and windows, and the exquisite stained glass was scattered everywhere. The weak and pitiful humans had never seen these before, screaming. The atmosphere of fear spread, and amidst the roar of the monster, it was torn in half by its sharp claws.
Blood spattered all over the pure white sculpture, adding a different color. The Dawn Knights responded quickly and quickly gathered the knights to fight. However, the unexpected surprise attack still caused huge losses and disasters.
Ethan hid in a confession room in time, squatted with his back to the iron door, trying his best to cover up his breath.
He originally wanted to follow the knights, but after the battle began, he found that the white knights were in more danger than he was. It was better to hide in a room with no windows on all sides and still survive.
He didn't know how these ghostly monsters were born. They were so outrageous that they exceeded his imagination. Countless monsters were running rampant in the church, making horrifying howls.
"No, I have to get out of here."
Ethan muttered to himself.
At this time, the patrol airships in the sky should still be operating. As long as they can be discovered, the Knights of the Pure Palace will immediately rush to support. After all, there are many nobles coming to the party tonight.
Thinking of this, Ethan took a deep breath. He tried to calm himself down. Reason suppressed his fear, slowed down his breathing, and gently opened the iron door, trying not to make a sound.
Most of the energy lamps were completely destroyed by monsters. It was dark outside the room, and the way out could only be vaguely discerned by the moonlight.
Ethan walked through the shadows. Thanks to the low vision and low IQ of the monsters, he was able to escape two crises.
If you want to notify the patrol airship, you must climb the church steeple. It is like a lighthouse in a heavy rain. It has an independent energy supply line and can send a distress signal to the patrol airship.
Gotta find a way to get there!
After a short rest, Ethan started to take action. He went all the way up the stairs. At the same time, non-human breathing and wheezing sounded in his ears.
