"For us, fighting desperately is not loyalty, but a sign of disloyalty."
Chapter 0180 The Monster in the Gate
Upon hearing this, Hina fell into deep thought; she had indeed never considered this aspect.
Father Hearst said from the side, “My Lord would certainly not want His servants to be in danger, for the mercy of my Lord is everywhere.”
"To be able to severely injure and nearly kill two level 20 ghouls in an instant, such strength is at least level 30. And Sheena, you are only level 21 now, it is very dangerous for you to go down."
Sheena clenched her fist, and after pondering for half a minute, she exhaled and said, "I understand, but before that, I still think we should first determine the truth."
Kur nodded: "Leave it to the two of us, you wait here."
After saying this, Kurt and Father Hearst entered the church through the window.
Upon entering the church, they saw that the bodies of the two tomb raiders had been torn to pieces, with more than a hundred pieces in total. They were scattered haphazardly on the ground, and blood was everywhere on the ground and walls.
"Those kids were scared because they saw this scene while they were peering out the window," said Conte, who was standing outside the window.
Kur looked around and then asked, "Can the suppressed monster come out from below? Judging from the scene with Roel, if it chases after us, Roel and Puxi won't be able to escape at all. But from what we've seen so far, it seems that it can come out."
Father Hearst took out a 30-centimeter-long silver-gray cross from his pocket, and with a flick of his wrist, a short sword appeared.
“We’ll find out once we go in,” Father Hearst said, cautiously advancing.
This was a clergyman with a level 30 rank, who had never believed in any deity before, because he thought those guys couldn't even perform miracles and were just a bunch of liars.
Born into a family of clergy, Hearst possesses a unique talent and cognitive bias. What ordinary people consider beautiful, he sees as ugly, while he regards the emotions that cause tragedy as the most beautiful existence.
Therefore, from the age of six, he was adept at drawing strength from the pain and tragedy of others.
Kur clenched his fists, cautiously protecting Father Hearst behind him.
After receiving the ancient god blood of Los, he already possessed power approaching level 25. Subsequently, through continuous training and consuming the blood of sinners, he has now reached level 28.
He is currently struggling with what kind of blood to ingest in order to enhance his abilities in a specific direction.
In the quiet, the two of them had already descended the stairs to the space below.
But just as they approached, the two of them felt strange ripples appear in the space in front of them.
Then, countless bizarre bone spikes and sharp teeth appeared on the ripples.
Squeak!
With a screeching sound of pages folding, it seemed as if a door had been opened.
At that moment, Kur, who had been strengthened by the blood of the ancient god, felt an indescribable danger.
In an instant, he grabbed Father Hearst, and the two of them leaped upwards.
Father Hearst also sensed something was wrong. He swung his longsword forward suddenly, and a strange wave of energy was transmitted through it.
Click!
The next instant, his signature wave attack failed to cause any damage, but the ripples passed through his longsword and bit his palm.
The next second, blood splattered as Father Hearst's arm was severed from countless angles by a strange force, leaving his beloved weapon forever below.
thump!
As they landed, Kurt caught Father Hearst.
Without saying a word, the two turned and ran!
Just then, the crowd waiting outside saw two people run out with extremely solemn expressions.
Before anyone could ask a question, everyone saw that blood was gushing from Father Hearst's right wrist, and the hand on it had disappeared.
"This!" Upon seeing this, Sheena's eyes narrowed, followed by a wave of fear.
Even Father Hearst, a level 30 priest, was no match for him. If he went down there, he would probably be killed instantly, without even having time to react.
“Father! Your hand!” Conte hurriedly reminded him.
Father Hearst had an idea. He quickly tightened the muscles in his wrist, squeezing the blood vessel to stop the bleeding.
“It’s alright. Quickly reseal this window and completely seal off the entire mountaintop. No one is allowed to approach,” Father Hearst said, giving the order.
Sheena reacted and said, "I'll go inform the master now."
"I'll take you to the sanatorium," said Kurt to Father Hearst.
Meanwhile, in the apartment of the Witch's House.
Minnie was still conflicted. Her faith in the great Lord of the Gate was unquestionable, but the divine descent that Loth had displayed that day had completely shaken her heart.
Now, the hearts of all members of the Forbidden Gate are in constant turmoil, and they have even lost the will to work and pray. Everyone is thinking about their own problems and is often absent-minded.
Minnie had originally intended to teach these wavering believers a lesson.
But at this moment, she found that her heart was also trembling.
Just then, an old woman dressed in black suddenly appeared in her room.
"Grandma!?" Minnie was startled when she saw the old woman.
The old woman slightly raised her head, revealing a head of gray hair and an aged face beneath a black hood.
"Long time no see, Minnie." This old woman was Minnie's teacher, the previous leader of the Forbidden Gate: Shaka Mason, a terrifying witch who survived two burnings at the stake.
Upon seeing Mason, her mentor, Minnie didn't show much enthusiasm. Instead, she asked rather calmly, "What brings you here?"
“If I hadn’t come, the entire Forbidden Gate would have been destroyed in your hands.” Mason’s hoarse voice was filled with dissatisfaction and coldness.
Minnie said calmly, "This is now my forbidden gate, and it has nothing to do with you."
"Irrelevant? Hmph!" Mason appeared behind Minnie in an instant, accompanied by a gust of black wind, and said indifferently, "The Lord of the Gate's messenger has awakened, and it is hungry."
Upon hearing this, Minnie's expression immediately changed: "Is it going to start again?"
"Do you have any questions?" Mason asked in a low voice.
Minnie turned her head slightly, clenched her fist, and said, "Now that you've left the forbidden gate and joined that organization, you shouldn't interfere in our internal affairs anymore."
Mason's eyes turned cold after hearing this: "It's been a few years, and your wings seem to have hardened. Everything you have is given to you by me, and naturally, I can take it all back!"
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed Minnie's neck.
Minnie dodged instantly, and retaliated with a terrifying ball of flame: "Mason, I've had enough of being controlled by you!"
Chapter 0181: Who's Worse?
Mason was not surprised by Minnie's resistance. She knew her student very well; the pride she carried because of her background would never disappear, and she would never willingly submit to someone else.
Faced with Minnie's attack, Mason's body once again turned into a gust of black wind and disappeared. The next second, her aged hand suddenly appeared from the black wind and grabbed at Minnie with force.
Instantly, Minnie sensed a tremendous danger, and in a flash, her entire body was covered in a thick layer of ice crystals.
Click!
The ice crystal was instantly crushed by an invisible force the moment it solidified.
As the ice crystals shattered, Minnie's rosy, moist lips suddenly parted, and she spat out a mouthful of ice towards Mason.
Suddenly, numerous sparks appeared around Mason's Black Wind, which then burst into flames.
It was as if hundreds of grenades had exploded around Mason at the same time. The terrifying heat caused the interior of the room to catch fire, and the floor and ceiling were riddled with craters, as if they had been continuously riddled with shotgun shells.
Having succeeded in this move, Minnie turned and ran without hesitation.
She knew very well that she was no match for the old witch; this was merely a delaying tactic.
Just as Minnie was about to turn and run away, she was suddenly grabbed by the ankle by a black thread that appeared out of nowhere.
Then, Mason's sinister voice rang out: "Still as forgetful as before. Having been burned at the stake twice, do you think I'd still be afraid of fire?"
As she spoke, Mason calmly stepped out of the flames, the intense heat of which hadn't even scorched a single corner of her robes.
Minnie's eyes flashed with shock upon seeing this: "Impossible. Even with resistance, it's impossible to be completely unharmed."
As soon as she finished speaking, Minnie seemed to realize something and suddenly looked at Mason: "You... you're level 40!?"
On the path to becoming a superhuman, every ten levels is a huge hurdle, and after level thirty, each hurdle is a transformation akin to a new life.
Once you reach level 40, you will be able to master some special abilities.
Level 50 is the demigod realm that countless people dream of. Legend has it that once a human reaches level 50, they have already transcended the realm of humanity, possessing a long lifespan and becoming extremely difficult to kill.
As for level 60? In all known areas, no one has yet been able to reach level 60.
Seeing Minnie's shock, Mason revealed a sinister smile on his aged face: "Not too stupid."
As she spoke, Mason raised her arm, revealing that her arm was covered not with normal skin, but with horrific burn scars.
These scars were now a deep, intense red, like countless embers hidden beneath her skin.
Whoohoo!
Mason let out a breath.
The moment that breath was expelled, it completely melted all the furniture, bricks, and floorboards in front of it.
Yes, it melted; the temperature was so high that the burning process was not even visible.
Minnie, who had witnessed all of this, gritted her teeth: "Your special skin can absorb and store all heat, so high-temperature flames can't harm you. And this stored heat can be used to attack enemies!"
Mason replied calmly, "As expected of my student, you have some insight. This is the special ability that those two burnings at the stake gave me."
As she spoke, she stepped forward and suddenly produced a pure metal whip that tightened around Minnie's slender waist.
"If I transfer just a little heat to you, before you even have time to react or deploy your abilities, I can strangle you in half!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, it would be so interesting to put a gruesome burn around such perfect, smooth skin, hehehe!"
Minnie felt a tightness in her chest upon hearing this, as her most prized possession in life was her tender and alluring body.
If she were to have a scar around her waist, her self-confidence would completely collapse.
Mason noticed Minnie's subtle inner thoughts and said calmly, "If you behave yourself, I might consider letting you go. After all, someone is very interested in you and specifically asked me to spare your life."
After hearing this, Minnie gritted her teeth and said, "Even if I die, I will never give myself to him!"
Mason chuckled after hearing this: "Unfortunately, your life or death is no longer up to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mason punched Minnie in the flat stomach.
As Minnie opened her mouth in pain, a pitch-black object was shoved directly into her mouth.
