The defeated saint is also on the way to tame the evil god today

　"Any news?" Xing Mo turned her head.

　"There are believers' prayers coming from the Magic Academy Island, which is protected by some kind of barrier," Aurora nodded. "It seems that Merlin has already

　Having foreseen what would happen that night, he chose not to stop it, but instead used the Storm Beacon to play the reverse chords of the Sand Song, ensuring that more civilians could seek refuge at the Magic Academy.

　"Compared to the Holy Tree Church, that place is the real safe haven."

　"If that's the case...then why didn't Principal Merlin say anything..." Xingmo murmured.

　He arranged for Xingmo to go to the God's Abode and become a demigod, but chose to avoid the war at the last moment when the academy fell.

　This doesn't seem like the Principal Merlin that Xingmo had in mind.

　He is the only demigod in the Academy City. He may be the only one in this city who can compete with the Golden King.

　But he hid on an isolated island, choosing to shelter a minority and abandon the majority?

　"I have to go find him and ask him clearly," Xingmo took a deep breath, "Alia, I need to go to Nefera Beta."

　"Are you sure you want to go out today? Your body won't be able to handle it, okay?"

　"We don't have time to waste. Who knows how long the Golden King's next move will take."

　Xingmo and Aurora entered the underground passage behind the church and went deeper into the church.

　Along the way, all the clergy who saw the two were very excited and greeted them happily.

　This made Xingmo feel like he was back home.

　"If Principal Merlin has any plans, we need to know as soon as possible," Xingmo said to Aurora while nodding to a young nun. "At least, I need to know what he's thinking."

　"Maybe he has no plan at all and is just taking the beating unilaterally," Aurora muttered.

　"No," Xing Mo shook her head. "From the storm beacon to the barrier of Nefera Beta Magic Academy, it's not something that can be planned in a day or two."

　"After planning for so long, he finally chickened out," Aurora said with amusement. "That's not like a demigod."

　"I don't think so either, so I think there might be something unspeakable."

　As they were talking, the two of them came to the depths of the church.

　At the end of the corridor, a stone door engraved with green runes stood, and a faint light flickered inside the door frame.

　"This is the passage to the outside world. Strictly speaking, it leads to the spirit world," Aurora said. "Through the spirit world, you can go to any place in the Citadel. However, the spirit world is quite dangerous, and only those who are protected by the mark of the Tree of Life will be safe."

　"I'm relatively safe too," Xingmo chuckled. "I actually grew wings that night."

　Aurora puffed out her cheeks.

　"Who allowed you to grow taller? Only we are allowed to grow taller!"

　Xingmo smiled bitterly:

　"Perhaps the golden full moon in my body is the same as the blue star in Yuechen's body, and is also an angelic power."

　"What kind of angel are you? You are not an angel, I am an angel." Aurora pouted.

　"Okay, okay, you are a little angel, you are a little angel."

　Xing Mo rubbed the little evil god's head, then closed his eyes and concentrated his spirit.

　The high fever has almost subsided. It is true that when you have a fever you need to eat more. Eating makes you feel healthier.

　She is quite vain now, and definitely cannot engage in a long-term battle in a short period of time, so she has to take it easy.

　"Let's go."

　After Xingmo finished speaking, he took Aurora's hand and they walked into the door together.

　A wave of green light rushed towards them, drowning their vision. A gap appeared in the green light, and gray-white light and shadow poured out from it.

　In the blink of an eye, the two entered the spirit world.

　"Crack!" The moment Aurora entered the spirit world, the spatial structure was destroyed and cracks appeared all over the spirit world.

　"It seems the Imperials haven't set up a barrier here yet," Aurora muttered. "Then let's get out first, to avoid tearing the spirit world apart later."

　After saying that, she left through the gap.

　Xing Mo flew alone in the spiritual world. She flew towards Xicheng District, shuttling between gray and white light and shadow.

　Ten minutes later, the gray light and shadow faded away, and Xingmo settled on a clock tower in Xicheng District.

　"Boom, boom, boom"

　The bell rang six times, and in the early morning, the academic city of Academi was shrouded in white mist, and strange streams of light flickered in the sky.

　Under the illumination of that stream of light, the academy was dyed white, as if it had been dyed by a heavy snowfall.

　The prosperity of the past has become silent in a pale scene.

　"That's the Hanging Gardens absorbing spiritual energy," Aurora emerged from the crack and landed beside Xingmo. "It looks like they really are planning to pry open the White Tower."

　"Can the so-called Heart of God really do this?" Xing Mo frowned.

　"It's hard to say. After all, the Sky Garden is now a super can opener made up of the divine bones and divine hearts," Aurora stuck out her tongue. "What a luxurious lineup."

　"It seems that if we want to stop the Sky Garden, we can only destroy the heart." Xing Mo said.

　"But it's useless. We still have to turn off the String of Truth," Aurora shook her head. "That Moon Dust can't kill me. Angel Bullet, if I got hit in the heart or head by that, I'd have to go to the hospital and get an IV drip. He just made the bed and fell asleep."

　"Do you have any idea? How to turn off the String of Truth?" Xing Mo asked.

　"Not yet," Aurora waved her hand, "Let's ask the principal. Our power is in the air.

　The Central Garden will be restricted by the Song of Sand, and we must find a way to remove this restriction."

　"Before that, we have to find a way to enter Nefera Beta."

　Xingmo said this, looking towards the west.

　She saw a blanket of white light—the Neferabetta Strait was isolated by the light curtain, and birds were faintly circling around it.

　"That power is very similar to my sister's," Aurora said. "Well, at least the characteristics are very similar, but my sister's barrier is not that weak. Maybe Merlin made some kind of deal with my sister."

　"Is there any way to get through?" Xing Mo asked.

　"Just go straight to the rift. I'll take you in," Aurora muttered. "How about we go now?"

　"Of course, let's go."

　Xingmo said as he took Aurora's hand and prepared to enter the rift.

　Just then, she suddenly heard the sound of fire strings being played.

　In fact, until she heard that sound, she didn't realize that she could actually hear the sound of strings playing so far away.

　The source of the sound was the North City District not far away. Judging from the street, Xingmo thought it was the North City Police Station.

　After being promoted to a demigod, my ability to perceive resonance strings has become so strong... Xingmo muttered, pointing to the source of the sound:

　"Go over there first. It looks like the Imperials are attacking the police station."

　With the Citadel almost completely under control, if the Imperials took the initiative to attack there, they must have their reasons.

　This is a clue that Xingmo doesn't want to miss.

　"Okay, let's go there."

　Aurora said as she casually split open a crimson crack and began to shuttle through it with Star Foam.

　At the gate of North City Police Station.

　"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

　The raging fire bombarded the gate repeatedly, and the golden starlight gradually shattered, unable to support the defense line.

　An immortal stood at the door, waving his staff and laughing:

　"Hahaha! Trash! Heretic trash! Fight back! You can't even fight back, you're such a trash!"

　He sounded a little mentally unstable and crazy, which made the scene a little creepy.

　Around him, imperial wizards in yellow robes waved their wands with him, causing flames to explode repeatedly on the gate.

　"Sheriff! The starlight barrier is about to collapse!" A police officer looked at the increasingly overloaded alchemical steam engine helplessly, "How much longer will it take!"

　"Five minutes! Just five more minutes and we'll have it deciphered!"

　Sheriff Laura Williams bit her lip, her hand trembling slightly as she gripped the revolver.

　Half an hour ago, the North City Police Station suddenly received an encrypted telegram from outside the Academy.

　Laura knew that the telegram from the outside world at this time must be very important, and might be related to the backup plan left by the top leaders of the academy...even though the top leaders of the academy seemed to have been slaughtered.

　Otherwise, this telegram would not have reached a small police station.

　After receiving the telegram, Laura immediately ordered the telegraph operator to start deciphering to confirm the specific content of the telegram.

　Five minutes after the decryption began, the Imperials began their attack.

　They seemed to know the importance of this telegram, so they dispatched the Immortals directly.

　The imperialists did not seem to dare to start a large-scale war in the northern city area - apparently because of the Holy Tree Church, they did not deploy large-scale troops here.

　But even if it was just one Immortal, it would be enough to kill the entire police station.

　Laura gripped the revolver tightly, beads of sweat on her forehead.

　While the message was being deciphered, the North City Police Station had already sent the telegram out, and Laura could only pray that other people in the academy could receive it.

　And she was not going to back down. The Imperials had to pay the price in blood.

　""

　"boom--"

　"boom--"

　"boom--"

　Waves of flames exploded one after another, the starlight shield gradually approached its limit, and the alchemical steam engine was about to run out.

　Just then, the sound outside suddenly disappeared.

　"?"

　Laura was slightly stunned and hesitated for a moment.

　"Stopped?" she murmured.

　No one in the police station relaxed. Revolvers and wands were all pointed at the door, waiting for the next round of attack.

　The technician paused for a moment, and immediately took advantage of this opportunity to repair the alchemical steam engine and reinforce the starlight shield.

　But suddenly, the starlight shield disappeared.

　"Sheriff! The Starlight Shield won't open!" He turned around, "All the Star Strings..."

　Before he could finish, the door was pushed open.

　"Don't move!" Laura clenched her pistol and shouted at the voice, "You..."

　The next second, she froze.

　Because, what came into view was a familiar figure.

　"Sheriff, long time no see."

　Xingmo closed the door and turned around, her star-like eyes meeting Sheriff Laura's.

　His long black hair cascaded down, his robe swayed slowly with the golden light, and an extraordinary aura lingered all over his body.

　Laura knew her—the freshman at Nefera Beta Magic Academy, the girl who had been involved in the Sunflower Baths and North City kidnapping cases last year.

　But she is now a completely different person.

　"Are you... Xing Sheng?" Laura didn't put down her gun. "Those Imperials outside..."

　“It’s all settled.”

　Xingmo said simply, raised his wand, and gently pointed it at the alchemical steam engine.

　Along with the rumbling sound of mechanical operation, the faint starlight shield once again protected the door.

　"Let me introduce myself again."
