The crystal candles hanging on the stone walls burned with crimson light, making the darkness in the vast underground cemetery a little more visible.
Weinerson followed Joseph and Elena, looked straight ahead, towards the rows of ancient crosses, and bowed quietly.
These ancient crosses are in the shape of a trapezoid, extending all the way up, like a stepped pyramid. At the top of the tower is a high raised altar.
There was no enshrined statue there, only a huge crimson holy emblem suspended in mid-air, with a dark red base and many copper owls embellished with intricate runes scattered around it from time to time.
On top of the huge dome, unknown fire oil cans burned one after another, like fireflies in the dark night, condensing into pure, miniature bright spots, spreading down the earth and towards the tomb, like the sublime starry sky.
Regardless of the sleeping and crimson gods, the iron sun, the god of light, or the god of the sea, they all seem to have similar starry sky costumes.
Among them was the starry sky dome on the old royal court. What did the "starry sky" mean? Weinerson allowed his thoughts to wander and did not rush to understand this aspect of the matter.
In the extremely quiet atmosphere, time passed quickly. Weinerson suddenly came back to his senses. He saw Joseph take out a silver pocket watch with arabesque patterns, click it open, and take a look.
“The necropolis is one of the sanctuaries of St. Honavitch’s Church. Whether he was a night watchman who sacrificed himself for the people, a talented writer or poet, or a sinful evildoer, this place provides eternity for the departed souls. A place of rest.”
"It seems that Bennett has borrowed the soul power of the mythical creature. Now the holy light is shining, indicating that the ceremony is not over yet. If we rush up there, we will disturb him. Please wait."
Joseph looked up at the ball of light, stopped by the steps, and waved to stop.
Borrowing the power of a mythical creature? Are more than just humans buried in the necropolis? And mythical creatures?
Weinerson was startled at first, then slowly thought for a moment, and then calmed down.
Jason's old father's diary mentioned that after transcending the demigod level, he is no longer him, but him. At that time, he will have his own mythical creature form, but this form Not complete.
As a church established in ancient times, it has a rich heritage. It is normal for a demigod-level night watchman or a church archbishop to be buried in the underground church.
Time passed minute by minute, and about 10 minutes passed. At the moment when the stars above his head went out, Joseph whispered:
"Let's go up."
He placed the half-high silk top hat and silver-white pocket watch on a stone bench nearby, then raised his feet and walked step by step towards the altar.
Weinerson hurriedly followed, as if walking up the stairs. From time to time, he glanced at the ancient crosses erected around him. Some were mottled and covered with moss and black stains, while others were pure white and flawless, as if they had been in the past two years. Genius is buried.
When he climbed onto the altar, the first thing he saw was the huge crimson holy symbol, as well as the sacred runes that emitted from time to time like projections in the night sky. This was inexplicably hard for people to see clearly or look directly at.
God cannot be looked at directly!
Weinerson lowered his head in silence. At this time, a short-haired middle-aged man wearing a priest's robe and a beard came to Joseph not far from the Holy Emblem.
He has the same gray-blue pupils, a full forehead, deep-set eye sockets, and a knife-like aquiline nose that shows a sense of Western classics. He is a standard Ghent race.
"how's it going."
Joseph looked at the floating stone slab shrouded in holy light and Besik, who was lying on it and twisting his body, and he frowned and asked.
"It's a very cunning spiritual residue. Ordinary dispersal rituals can't work. I can only use the souls of the demigod-level deceased to suppress it. Now I can barely control the body surface temperature, but it's just a control. I can't guarantee whether there will be problems later."
Bennett shook out his black priest's robe and sat casually on a stone bench on the side. He looked past Joseph and looked at Weinerson, who bowed his head silently.
"Hello, my name is Bennett, and I am the night watchman who guards the underground necropolis." Bennett spoke gently, without using standard etiquette to introduce himself.
"Hello, Mr. Bennett, I'm Weinerson."
He bowed deeply, and while bowing, he glanced at the stone slab floating in the air, on which lay a figure with flowing silver hair.
"Is Besik up there?" Wernerson asked.
"Yeah, he's in bad shape."
Bennett sighed, and at this moment, painful groans suddenly came from the upper board.
"Ah...ah ah..."
"Kill me, quickly, kill me quickly, you can't let her take over my body... Wuwu, don't come over, I don't want to die..."
"Haha... As long as you are obedient and let me feel enough joy, you, your husband, and children will be saved... Don't listen to him, he is lying to you, he is a devil, a devil ..."
"Kill him, kill him quickly, no... you can't... ah... haha, I can't tell the difference, I really can't tell..."
Sometimes a male voice and sometimes a female voice, sometimes crazy and sometimes restrained, sometimes laughing and sometimes crying, this is the symptom of Besik now, that kind of crazy moans, one after another, reaching everyone's ears, impacting everyone's nerves.
It is as if one body contains multiple souls, constantly intertwined and staged, each soul trying to occupy this body and gain new life.
"This is the situation. Now many kinds of souls and personalities have evolved in his body. In addition to the mental residue, there is also unknown pollution hidden in his spiritual body. I suspect that he suffered it when he used extraordinary power to try to fall into a dream. pollute."
Is your dream contaminated? Weinerson recalled that when he touched the supernatural in the old royal court, a lot of obscure and secret knowledge was stuffed into his mind, including descriptions of the spiritual body, the spiritual body, the mental body, the etheric body, etc.
He did not study this aspect of knowledge in detail, but only had a vague understanding of it. Simply put, the spiritual body is the core of the human body, the fundamental spirituality. All living things have spirituality, and dreaming is one of the manifestations of the active state of the spiritual body.
It actually directly polluted the spiritual body. Where did he go and what did he touch?
"Is there some unknown contamination hidden in the ghost? There is no doubt that this was a targeted, premeditated incident, aimed at St. Honavitch's Church."
Weinerson moved his eyes and watched carefully. Suddenly, he saw a naked female angel vaguely appearing above Besik lying on the stone slab. On the angel's back were two white wings, and her face was full of desire and joy. A strange face made of temperance.
Suddenly, this naked female angel turned her head and looked over with a pair of almost illusory eyes!
This... Weinerson shuddered, opened his mouth, and blurted out:
"what is that?"
After hearing Weinerson's words, Joseph, Elena, and Bennett all turned their heads, glanced at the stone slab, and looked at Besik.
He was lying on the stone slab, with a crimson light covering the surface, his face pale, and his body twisting.
"It's a normal purification phenomenon, and those twinkling stars will continue for a while."
Bennett said not to worry. This situation would continue for at least another afternoon. If it could not be purified before sunset, the mid-sequence night watchman would have to be called in to disperse it.
"No, I'm not referring to that. Just now I seemed to see a naked female angel floating on his body in mid-air."
"Naked female angel?"
Suddenly, Joseph and Bennett spoke out at the same time, their brows instantly furrowed, and their bodies seemed to turn into solid stone statues.
Elena watched the captain's face turn gloomy, she was suddenly startled and had a vague suspicion.
"Are you sure you read it correctly?" Bennett stiffly turned his head for a long time and asked Weinerson. As soon as he finished speaking, the naked angel floating in the sky above Besik quickly disappeared, as if he had never appeared before. Same.
"She disappeared. Just now, she was just looking at me so quietly."
At this moment, Weinerson's mind went blank. He felt that his spirit was floating a little. The illusory figure was obviously no different from a normal naked woman. At most, it had two wings on the back, but the feedback in his eyes was, But it is a huge visual, spiritual and inspirational impact.
"Desire and moderation... Queen of Angels 'Eve'."
Joseph uttered the word 'Eve' heavily. He had no idea that an ordinary pollution would be related to the terrifying King of Angels.
Eve…King of Angels…
A species that only exists in myths has actually come to reality?
As his thoughts flickered, Weinerson suddenly remembered the alchemist he had seen in Jason's notebook before, who was dubbed the beloved son of God—Benjamin!
His eyes widened little by little, and an uncontrollable sense of fear arose in his heart, as if a layer of frost had covered him.
In a sense, Benjamin and Eve should be on the same level. Their names contain extremely high status, and they belong below gods and above humans.
"Captain, I suggest arranging a transfer immediately. This is no longer pollution that we can purify. Even if it is just a projection of Eve, the King of Angels, the corruption caused will be enough to bring a devastating blow."
"King of Angels...King of Angels..."
Elena whispered this honorific title repeatedly, and suddenly she looked at Joseph with a horrified look on her face:
"Captain, Besik is just investigating ordinary ghost incidents, how could he provoke the King of Angels? Isn't that an existence that only exists in mythology?"
"Elena, go to the church immediately and notify the bishop. Bennett, seal it with a ceremony. I will report to the headquarters that Eve, the King of Angels, who has been hiding for thousands of years, has appeared!"
Joseph finished his instructions in an orderly manner, and then he took off the crimson simple badge that he had fastened on his shirt and placed it in Bennett's hand.
"Using it as a sealing node should be able to suppress Eve's remaining desire and restraint power."
Bennett glanced at the penny-sized Holy Emblem in his hand. It was painted with runes full of abstract meanings. This is an exclusive emblem issued by the church to each captain of the Night Watch. It contains the symbols of the Sleeping and Crimson God. miraculous power.
"Captain, this is awarded by the church..."
Just as Bennett finished speaking, Joseph raised his hand to signal that he didn't need to continue.
"It's time to start, this is the only way to save Beswick."
