Soul Echo

There is indeed a hidden compartment in the base of the Divine Idol of the church.

The mechanism to open the dark grid is the four corners of the base - a single corner cannot be rotated, but if you touch two corners at the same time, you can find that these corners can be rotated.

When the four corners are rotated 90 degrees, the hidden compartment of the base will pop up.

A pitch-black scepter lay quietly in the dark compartment, and Zhong Ye reached out and took it out.

The moment the fingers touched the body of the stick, the use of this sacred relic appeared in my mind.

This scepter really cannot cure the disease, because it can only disseminate and control the virus, and it cannot even completely eliminate the virus. At most, it can inhibit the self-replication of the virus.

If he guessed correctly, this scepter should be a product hundreds of years ago, before the abyss invaded this world, and it is probably not the sacred relic of the medical church.

Devils are very resistant to viruses, and ordinary viruses cannot infect them at all, and after infecting them, the more virulent viruses will be transmitted back to the humans who fight them through their bodies, so As a result, it will cause more harm to the human side.

The reason why Plague God perished was more or less influenced by these factors.

Zhong Ye took the scepter to the office on the second floor and tapped bishop's shoulder with the tip of the scepter.

According to the instructions in the scepter, this will temporarily inhibit the self-replication of the virus.

The blessing of the medical god still exists in bishop's body. As long as the proliferation of the virus can be suppressed, he can recover.

Zhong Ye and the others waited silently. After two minutes, bishop opened his eyes and sat up with his head covered.

It's just that his eyes are blurred, and he can see three people standing opposite, but he can't see who it is.

"...Who are you?" Bishop asked slowly after a moment of deliberation.

"I'm Zhong Ye."

"Oh, it's Your Excellency Zhong Ye..." bishop took a deep breath, blinked his eyes, and his vision slowly became clear.

At this time, he was finally able to see clearly the appearance and stature of the man and the woman on the opposite side.

"Long story short, what exactly happened in Auxerre?" Zhong Ye brows tightly knit, urged.

"We may have suffered a blow from the abyss..." Bishop only said a few words, and his breathing became rapid.

Zhong Ye and the others could see that bishop's face flushed instantly, but after taking two deep breaths, he gritted his teeth and continued: "The location is probably on the east side of the city, maybe outside the city, It may also be inside, until now, there is still something spreading the plague!"

Zhong Ye nodded, "but didn't move, and continued to ask: Why do you know someone will come?"

"Because the church members of Bourges and I have been informed..." Bishop gasped, suddenly feeling weak in his hands and feet, "They said that there may be a stronghold of the vampire clan around Auxerre, so I will add more recently. Be prepared...and, they told me, you, the demonhunter and a title chapter may come to Auxerre in the near future, let me prepare the information..."

said Here, bishop stopped, raised his hand with difficulty, and pointed to the door.

"Bring the 'Stick of Plague', it may be able to help you..."

Before he finished speaking, Bishop fell on the table with a bang, Comatose again.

Seeing that Bishop was unconscious again, Zhong Ye pursed his lips, turned his head and looked towards Lily, "You..."

"I want to go with you!"

Lily Lieber interrupted Zhong Ye's words and said firmly: "Don't worry! I will never be a burden to you, whether it is fighting or investigating, I can help!"

"teacher, I want to be with you too!" Lilian echoed.

Zhong Ye looked at them again, because it was winter, and their clothes were very thick. Although they could not effectively block the virus from invading the body, they could temporarily block it. Symptoms will appear so quickly...

"If you feel symptoms in your body, you must return to the city." Looking at them, Zhong Ye said seriously, "Because you also know that if you are in danger, I will Absolutely impossible, regardless of you!"

It would be great if I hadn't said these words at such a time...

Lily felt a little turbulent in her heart, but she was immediately suppressed by her. go down.

—now is not the time to think about these things!

Zhong Ye turned to leave the office, and as he walked down the stairs, he heard a third cough coming from the direction of the treatment room.

When they walked out of the church, they saw that the two draught horses were already on their knees, if not for the ropes, they would probably be lying directly on the ground.

Can even animals be infected?

Lilian's face behind the mask changed slightly, because she knew that if the same virus could infect humans and animals at the same time, it would easily produce terrifying mutations.

Zhong Ye walked towards the carriage and cut off the ropes on the two draught horses with a knife, allowing them to lie on the ground.

Although the ground is cold, they are also wrapped in animal skins, which makes them more painful to keep kneeling all the time.

Seeing Zhong Ye, the two draught horses let out a low cry, as if they were pleading.

Zhong Ye said nothing, turned around and walked to the carriage, and took out Lily and Lilian's equipment.

Then they put on their gear while walking.

I don't know if there will be a fight, but until then, it's always good to be prepared.

Zhong Ye took out the Compass and took Lily and the others to the east of the city.

The area of ​​Auxerre is not large, they only spent a few minutes strolling around the east of the city, but they didn't find the 'thing' in the bishop words.

Since it's not inside the city, then it's outside the city!

There is no city gate in the east of the city, so Zhong Ye picked up Lilian and the others and planned to jump directly from the city wall.

However, just after jumping on the city wall, they saw a yellow-green sphere lying quietly in a pit.

"What is that..." Lillian couldn't help whispered.

The devil? Abyssal weapon?

Zhong Ye had a lot of thoughts flashing through his mind and jumped out of the city without making a sound.

"You two stand here first, don't move."

Instructing the two of them, Zhong Ye took out the long knife from his back, held it in his hand, and walked slowly towards the two of them. The pit where the yellow-green object is located is close.

Standing at the back, Lily and Lillian also nervously took up their weapons and drew holy oil from their pockets.

Even Archfiend, the Holy Oil can damage it, as long as that thing comes from the abyss, it will be affected by the Holy Oil.

Zhong Ye didn't rashly use psionic energy, because psychic energy comes from the soul. If there is any pollution on that thing, using psionic energy to probe it will only infect his soul.

Compared to his strong body, his soul is much weaker.

Walking to the pit, staring at the yellow-green irregular sphere at the bottom of the pit, Zhong Ye took out a glass bottle from his arms, which was filled with holy oil.

Two steps back, popped the cork off, and threw it towards the pit.

After completing this series of actions, Zhong Ye retreated violently and quickly distanced himself from the pit.

The holy oil was poured onto the yellow-green irregular sphere, and at the first moment of contact, thick smoke floated upward.

The originally whistling wind suddenly stopped, and then centered on the pit, it suddenly spun.

Intense light rose from the bottom of the pit, and the originally extremely stable yellow-green irregular spheres suddenly proliferated and expanded outward!

In just a few seconds, the sphere expanded into a human-shaped body, but this body was ten meters high.

A huge shadow was cast on the ground, just covering Zhong Ye and them.

Under the horrified gazes of Zhong Ye and the others, the 'human figure' opened its eyes.

"...I know you."

Zhong Ye pupils suddenly enlarged and her heart tightened.

The monster derived from that object actually possesses self-awareness.

In other words, this thing is actually a devil?

Able to infect a town in a short period of time, even blocking the connection between the God of Healing and his clergy...

Is it the 'Great Demon'?
