Don't call me evil god

Chapter 887 We are safe, temporarily.
Although she was mistaken for a mage, it was not a bad thing for Valerie.

In this chaotic environment, the stronger and more confident she appears, the easier it is for her to gain people's trust.

If she just yelled a few times, others would find it difficult to trust her enough when they saw that her hair hadn't even grown out yet.

But if you have the aura of being a mage.

She instantly became a "young spellcaster with amazing talent"!
In a sense, Valerie even wanted to thank this burly man who was looking for death. He just happened to run into trouble and used himself as a lesson, proving the strength of Valerie and her group, as well as the credibility of her words!
The people around were willing to believe that Valerie had a way to protect them, so they naturally swarmed over, vying to try to get close to her.

"Don't push! Don't push!"

Despite her inner nervousness, Valerie still showed a calm and proud expression on her face, making herself look more like what people imagine a wizard to be like:
"If you want to survive, then follow my instructions!"

"Hurry up and get to the Glowing Church, the sooner the better!"

The more urgent the situation, the more blindly people follow.

Now that an authoritative "Master Mage" had appeared and was willing to lead the way, the panicked crowd quickly regained some order and followed Valerie towards the direction of the Glowing Cathedral in the center of Turin City.

With this first batch of manpower.

The other panicked crowds we met along the way were naturally quickly assimilated.

There were a few blind people who were knocked out by Valerie's merciless use of the discrete magic device. The effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkey further deepened people's trust.

Rather than running around like headless flies, sticking together with a large group for warmth will always give them a greater sense of security.

The team led by Valerie grew larger and larger. From only a dozen people following her at the beginning, by the time she arrived at the Glowing Church, the size had swelled to hundreds of people!
Some of the latecomers didn't even understand what the team was going to do, they just followed instinctively.

The Glowing Church was also in chaos at this moment.

Several priests who stayed behind fled with their families. There was no one to maintain order, and there were screams, howls, and insane prayers everywhere.

"If you want to survive, be quiet!"

"Quiet!!!"

Valerie tried her best to shout at the top of her lungs several times in a row, and finally the panicked people in the church calmed down a little.

"Everyone listen!"

The girl pursed her lips and was about to continue speaking when her expression suddenly became dazed for a moment, and then her expression became firm:
"My name is Valerie. I'm from Ceylon Territory and I'm a believer of the God of Knowledge, Nowen!"

Valerie's voice also became more confident:
"My Lord has given me guidance!"

"I need to perform the Wall of Heart ceremony here. This barrier can protect us all!"

"The completion of the ritual requires the efforts of all of you!"

On the way to the church, Valerie was actually unsure, because she knew that regarding the exploration of the Wall of Heart ritual, both she and the two old scholars had only a superficial understanding of it.

Now she is the only one who possesses the knowledge to perform the ceremony, and she only has one chance.

Without practicing it herself, she was not sure how large an area the barrier created after the ceremony would cover, and how long it would be effective.

What if it’s not big enough?

What if it doesn’t last long enough?

But it’s different now!

Because just now, she opened her mouth and attracted the attention of everyone in the church!
She got guidance from Nowen!
【Wall of Heart: Turin City】

[Ceremony start-up requirements: 1451/4326 people]

[Warning: The Heart Wall Ritual is irreversible. After the ceremony, please ensure that the number of maintainers is no less than 433! ]

Valerie immediately had an idea in her mind!
This is guidance and protection from the God of Knowledge.

Nowen is watching her!

Nothing would give her more peace of mind than this.

"The Heart Wall Ritual requires people. If you want to survive, go tell every citizen you can find to gather at the church!"

"I still need 2,800... No, I still need more than 2,700 people!"

"As long as we can complete the ritual before the monsters rush into this city, everyone can survive!"

"I guarantee it with my faith!"...

There is hope of life.

The citizens, who were previously in a state of panic, suddenly burst out with unparalleled strong action power.

Isn’t it just calling someone?

Starting from the Radiant Church in the center of Tulin City, citizens ran through the streets and alleys, shouting slogans to gather at the Radiant Church for refuge.

The girl who climbed onto the church terrace nervously paid attention to the instructions given to her by Nowen.

"2000 people, 2200 people, 2500 people... 4000 people..."

Various materials needed for the Wall of Heart ceremony have been brought into the church.

These materials were originally intended for Harris Eugene and others as backup, but were now decisively requisitioned by Valerie.

"4326 people! That's enough!"

The moment the number of people met the requirements, Valerie began to chant the complex prayer of the Heart Wall Ritual without hesitation:

"Gnomus, Mosalak, Dokratsim, Ventus..."

The girl stumbled over the obscure syllables at first, until a message from somewhere came into her mind:

[Human species detected]

[Ordinary unit - no special bloodline]

[Group ritual mode, the number of participants has passed the test! ]

[You have temporarily obtained the fifth level permission of "Heart Wall Barrier Blueprint"! ]

[——Waiting for instructions]

When the information appears.

The girl felt that her "perspective" suddenly rose from the ground, taking off from the terrace of the church in the city until it was high enough to overlook the city of Turin.

In Valerie's sight.

A hemispherical barrier filled with gray mist almost covered the entire city of Tulin.

[Are you sure you want to create a heart wall barrier? ]

[Warning: This barrier will attract the evil and distorted "Vicious Meat Mountain" to the mortal world! ]

Although she was extremely surprised by this sudden information, Valerie didn't care at all and confirmed it with her consciousness without hesitation!
The girl's "perspective" began to decline rapidly.

A thick gray fog came from nowhere and gradually condensed and spread above the city.

The "phantom" began to turn into reality!
Although this barrier looks a bit strange, it is not as sacred and pure as the pale golden appearance of the [Past Glory] barrier.

But it does its job!
Because soon there was exciting good news reaching the church:

"Those monsters!"

"They no longer come near Turin City!"

“They’re starting to roam around!”

The anxious people immediately burst into loud cheers.

Valerie wasn’t exaggerating!
The ritual really works!
This is truly a barrier strong enough to protect the entire city of Turin!
The two old scholars looked at each other.

"We are safe."

"…temporarily."
