Forbidden Nightmare

Chapter 71: Relief from Pain
Even though Li Nanke has experienced all kinds of artificial beauty in the real world, he still couldn't help being dazed when he saw Colette's true face.

Her appearance was not that kind of aggressively gorgeous, but rather flawless and pure beauty, with a sense of holiness and affinity.

No wonder artists use the face of the Madonna as a template for sculpting statues. If one were to find the face given by God among the vast sea of ​​people in the world, then the first person that people who have seen this face would think of would be hers.

"who are you!"

After a brief moment of unconsciousness, Renault frowned and subconsciously reached for the hilt of the sword, because the woman in front of him was quite similar to the statue of the Virgin Mary.

Colette said nothing, but continued to chant her prayers.

As the prayer sounded again, the originally soft outline was completely replaced by deep red and purple-black burn areas, and the smooth skin became rough and unrecognizable.

The skin was covered with blisters of varying sizes, some of which had already burst, revealing the bright red flesh underneath, while the unbroken blisters were like tight hillocks that could burst and ooze pus at any time.

Hot oil continued to seep out of her eye sockets, burning her skin and flesh until they sizzled...

Li Nanke felt his throat tightening a little and looked away, no longer looking at that horrible face. The transformation from such beauty and purity to ugliness and horror had an extremely strong visual and psychological impact.

"I'm sorry to show you my true identity in this way. I may look a little scary."

"In fact, there has never been any Colette. There is only a part of the soul that has been stripped away by the grace of pain. The grace has always been like this."

"Perhaps the physical torture and pain alone could not satisfy that great being. After my death, God's grace descended upon me again and stripped off a part of my soul. I watched helplessly as my body turned into a giant monster and the hot oil that kept oozing out burned my face, over and over again, without stopping."

"Perhaps that great being has long understood that the suffering and pain from the soul is thousands of times greater than that from the body..."

Li Nanke said in a deep voice: "How can I help you?"

"Only death."

Colette walked out of the wooden house and pushed open the high door of the monastery. The setting sun lengthened her shadow.

"God's grace cannot be reversed... If it could be reversed, I would be resurrected because of God's grace, and I would die and be freed because of God's grace disappearing."

"Now only your help can end the endless suffering."

"Please help me, kill Felicia and Colette..."

Renault sighed. Our Lady of Jiao Rong and his sister had the same miserable fate. All of this was due to the Holy Congregation of Penance and the grace of suffering.

The dim sunlight casts its shadow on the monastery garden. Under Dugu's tomb is Felicia's mausoleum.

Under Colette's guidance, the two walked into the secret passage, down the stone steps, and arrived at the basement of the monastery.

Only a few candles were lit in the dark underground. As I walked down the stone steps, the shrill roars and wails echoed in my ears, and I could even vaguely hear the sizzling sound of hot oil burning my skin.

"I can't control her behavior. She has become a completely huge monster and will attack any creature she sees."

"You must be careful..."

Colette was the first to enter the mausoleum. The mausoleum built by the Holy Society for Felicia was vast and had a towering dome.

But even so, the huge shadow in the depths could only crouch on all fours, with its back against the dome, and crawl like a wild beast to move normally.

The arrival of several people brought the painful wails and roars to an abrupt end.

Renault drew out the wolf-head sword, and a blazing fire ignited, illuminating everything in the mausoleum and making the silhouette of the giant creature completely clear.

The giant raised its head slightly, hot oil was flowing on its horrible face, the skin and flesh were sizzling, and burn scars were all over it.

Its body is like a twisted giant, and it still retains some female characteristics, but it only makes people feel ugly and terrifying.

It is the real Madonna of Scorch—Fritsia.

Colette strode forward with a sad look in her eyes.

"Boom!"

The Holy Mother Jiao Rong rushed over with a roar. As her huge body moved, the mausoleum rumbled and dust fell from the dome.

The huge hand swept across, piercing through Colette's figure, but could not really hurt her. Similarly, due to the effect of the grace of suffering, Colette, as a soul, could not hurt the Scorched Mother, so she could only hope that someone else would end her suffering.

Renault gripped the sword tightly, his figure flashed, and he rushed towards the huge monster!

Facing the huge palm sweeping towards him, he tapped the ground with his toes while charging, then jumped up to avoid the terrifying attack.

While dodging the attack, he swung his sword downward, and waves of flames swept across!
"boom!"

Blood gushed out of the monster's arm, and burn marks appeared on the horrible wound.

A 'Linear Laser Cannon' appeared in Li Nanke's hand.

As the barrel hummed, green energy storage indicator lights lit up one by one, and dazzling light gathered at the muzzle.

Renault used his nimble steps to fight with the huge monster, as if dancing on the edge of a knife. If Mother Jiao Rong's attack landed on him once, the huge damage caused would be enough to be fatal.

However, Renault was able to narrowly avoid the attacks every time, leaving terrible wounds on the body of the Holy Mother Jiao Rong.

"Renault! Dodge!"

Li Nanke shouted and released the trigger.

The cannon barrel vibrated, and huge amounts of energy were gathered through the optical system into a destructive force that was released instantly!

A piercing high-frequency scream sounded, and a dazzling beam of light tore through the air, dragging a blazing trajectory, and hit the head of the Holy Mother Jiao Rong.

The monster roared miserably, and one of its giant eyes exploded.

The laser beam continued to penetrate into the eye socket and burn the nerve tissue. The monster immediately raised his hand to block it.

When the dazzling light went out, the laser almost pierced through the huge palm of the Holy Mother Jiao Rong.

Li Nanke put away the cannon, picked up the chainsword and rushed forward.

There was a light flashing in Renault's eyes. Facing the giant palm sweeping towards him again, he not only did not dodge, but uttered strange syllables.

In an instant, raging flames ignited, and the wolf-head sword instantly turned into a giant flaming sword. The sword body swung horizontally, and actually deflected the horrific attack.

Renault stepped on the ground, and in a flash, he appeared above the monster's ugly head.

At the same time, Li Nanke used Renault to deflect the monster's attack and rushed to the bottom of the monster's head.

He gripped the hilt tightly, and the sharp thorns pierced into his flesh. He stomped his foot on the ground, and the teeth tore through the flesh and twisted into the monster's head from the jaw!

Renault stood on top of the monster, shouted loudly, and held the giant sword in reverse, and flames and fire burst out...

The entire blade of the giant sword, along with the scorching flames, penetrated into the monster's head from top to bottom!

"Boom!"

After a loud bang, the entire mausoleum fell into silence.

Our Lady Jiao Rong fell to the ground with a bang, and her crazy eyes finally became calm and clear in the last moments of her life.

That huge and ugly face was distorted with intense pain and was gasping for breath.

Colette walked forward and gently stroked the monster's face: "Sleep, sleep, this time you can sleep peacefully, and there will be no more pain in the future."

Our Lady Jiao Rong seemed to understand her words and slowly closed her eyes, without making any sound.

Colette turned around and regained her beautiful appearance.

With tears in her eyes, she smiled and said, "Thank you, it's my turn now."

Li Nanke closed his eyes and took a deep breath...then he opened his eyes and strode forward, with a flash of cold light from the sharp blade!
The broken soul shattered, and the woman's figure turned into star-like light and dissipated.

Vaguely, she could see a peaceful smile with relief on her face.
