The Villain Saint is my secondary account

Chapter 48: Roll's Request

【6: 14】

"Evans told us that he would find a way to create a god for us." Luo Er's sword was easily deflected by Ye Xiao. His steps had become quite slow now, like a robot that was about to run out of power. "He convinced the scholars to become the priest of Hope Town and brought an unconscious soul with him."

"This soul is so... unique, possessing the purest spirit and an extreme affinity for magic."

"He said that as long as we give the unconscious soul the faith of the townspeople and then find a way to condense the godhood... this soul will gather the kingdom of God, the people of God, and the godhood, and become a true god... and because it is unconscious, this god will become a god shared by Hope Town."

"We did this, gradually expanding the population of Hope Town and exploring the alchemical technology for transformation and evolution..."

"Until one day, scholars discovered that... the alchemical transformation had actually begun to gradually erode the consciousness of the original soul."

"Both the body and soul of those who have been 'evolved' by the alchemy of Hope Town will be gradually controlled, becoming slaves to the 'evolved' parts... The higher the degree of transformation, the higher the degree of erosion and control."

"'Evolution' gradually solidified into... the authority of that soul - and that soul was controlled by Evans."

"He deceived all of us... The Institute of Craftsmanship fell into his hands... The consciousness of the residents was also controlled by him..."

"All the parts on my body were made by me... myself, so the degree of corrosion is relatively low... But my soul is in Hope Town after all. As the power of the gods grows stronger... the replacement of my own parts will gradually be included in the process of 'evolution'."

"So, while I can still control part of my consciousness... I have been looking for someone who might be able to help us..."

"For this I also made a deal with Lord Mammon... using my soul... He promised to bring me your help..."

"Mr. Ye... this is all I can tell you..." Luo Er's voice began to stutter. Perhaps, as he said, as Freya got closer to the real god, his consciousness would no longer belong to him. "Forgive me for bringing you into such danger..."

"I don't know how to express my sincerity... but I really love Hope Town, and the Society that once aimed at redemption... I can only beg you..."

"Please save us, save the society... save... hope..."

Luo's voice became smaller and smaller, but his body began to move less slowly and his movements became more and more agile.

Even so, Luo's sword was still trying its best to stab at a place where he could not hit Ye Xiao.

His voice seemed to have exhausted all his strength as he uttered the last three words:

"Kill... me..."

Ye Xiao sighed lightly, he dodged, and then loosened his grip on the knife handle.

Seeing the mechanical gentleman whose figure and swordsmanship were becoming more and more fierce, but whose movements were no longer elegant but became more and more brutal, Ye Xiao finally made up his mind.

While the opponent's consciousness was still able to delay his body movements, he took advantage of the opponent's unnatural flaw and slashed with his sword.

The mottled brass head rolled to the ground, with rusty parts scattered around. The optical lenses that made up the eyes reflected Ye Xiao's figure, and after blinking a few times, they slowly closed.

This mechanical gentleman, who had only met him twice, fell under the huge clock. His tiny figure rolled down the stairs and fell into the crowd below.

Ye Xiao glanced at the countdown.

……

On the other side of the Cathedral Square, Bishop William attacked Evans again.

He stood with a sword in his hand, chanting loudly, his red robe fluttering with the pressure, and the silver sword in his hand emitted countless streams of light, tumbling in the air and transforming into countless holy sword beams, which then gathered into a wave and rushed towards Evans.

Faced with the overwhelming sword light, Evans finally took action.

He tapped the floor lightly with the end of the ceremonial staff, and a dazzling light immediately shot up into the sky from the tip of the staff inlaid with a red gem, converging into a huge sword blade.

This was the holy light spell "Sword of Judgment" that Ella had seen in class.

"Tobias, the people of the Institute of Engineering want to create gods." Evans waved his sword lightly, and the sword light wave summoned by Bishop William was like a cut-off stream of water. With an oblique cut, it instantly disintegrated into golden light dots, scattered on the stone steps like rain. "They established the kingdom of God in hell and guided the souls of the living beings in the present world to enter the kingdom of God and become the people of God... Do you think they are crazy too? But I see hope in it."

The sword array that Bishop William summoned with great effort was broken in one move, and he was already somewhat powerless.

He was panting, and tried to dodge as Evans swung the Judgment Sword again, but the golden magic circle that suddenly lit up under his feet made his legs unable to move for a moment.

He had no choice but to raise his sword to block, but the powerful slash actually shattered the silver sword in his hand.

The gushing blood dyed the stone steps red. Bishop William knelt on one knee, with a diagonal gash on his chest extending from his shoulder to his thigh.

The two rings on his hands broke on the ground with a slight sound. Even though he activated two items enchanted with protective arrays at the same time, Bishop William was almost split in half.

But when faced with the line between life and death, he did not feel afraid, and his eyes seemed to become more fanatical.

A golden light surged around him and he slowly stood up from the steps. The look in his monoculars became more and more like that of a beast ready to devour people.

"This is the blessing bestowed by the Holy Light on the Knights Templar. This is what you are pursuing." Evans' eyes were still calm. He continued to speak, but it seemed that the person he was talking to was no longer Bishop William. "A million lives in exchange for a shelter. As a mortal, this price is actually very small."

Bishop William, whose whole body was wrapped in holy light, condensed a golden sword in his hand. Bits of holy light floated around him, and the tremendous pressure he released continued to increase.

Bishop William rushed towards Evans again, but along the way, golden chains rose from the ground, covering the entire staircase, waving and twisting like a nimble python and instantly wrapping around Bishop William.

The chains dragged Bishop William into the air, and then slammed him hard to the ground. The holy light wrapped around his body flew everywhere like broken pieces of armor.

The cardinal, whose body was smashed to pieces, struggled to stand up against the force of the chains, but was immediately knocked to the ground by Evans with a ceremonial staff infused with holy light power.

Some blood stained Evans' white robe, but he didn't care. He just summoned a golden sword of judgment from the tip of the staff in his hand and stabbed it into the back of the head of Bishop William, who was lying on the ground and being healed by the holy light.

Chapter 49: Gradia and Freya

"Lord High Priest."

The girl's ethereal voice rang out at the moment when the tip of the sword was about to pierce Bishop William's head.

Ella, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up, "It is not appropriate to have bloodshed during the pilgrimage festival. Bishop William is also a believer of our Lord, so let him go."

There was a complicated expression on the old face of High Priest Evans. He didn't understand what Ella was thinking about and why she suddenly spoke out to stop him, but he did not dare to move the staff in his hand at all.

He first invited the daughter from the Haywel family into the temple. In addition to respecting the fact of the angel's coronation from the temple's perspective, he also had doubts and inquiries about the appearance of this strange chosen one.

Because based on what he had seen before, the Chosen One of Light should not appear in this world.

But this saint was born in such a strange way. He had to recruit her into the temple and keep her under his nose, otherwise he would never have peace in his heart.

During this period of time, he also discovered some vague clues, but even now, he still didn't understand what the other party was.

"Lord Haiweier, you didn't stop the blood sacrifice of millions of people in the square, but now you are stopping me from killing a priest you don't know very well," Evans decided to test the waters cautiously. After all, his goal was not to kill Ella Haiweier. The best result would be for the other party not to mess around and destroy his ceremony. "I don't quite understand your idea."

"There will naturally be people over there who will stop your ceremony." Ella said frankly, "I am just the master of ceremonies, ensuring the safety of everyone here."

High Priest Evans frowned, "No one can stop God from descending."

Ella didn't reply.

"What if I insist on killing him?" Evans asked tentatively upon seeing this.

"You can try." Ella said calmly.

In fact, Ella didn't think about anything too complicated. It was just that Ye Xiao was trying to turn the tide in Hope Town. Since there was a chance to solve the problem directly over there, it would be the best plan for Ella to keep silent for the time being and not let the identity of the evil god be exposed to the public.

But if Evans dared to kill innocent people right under her nose without her taking any action, Ella would not tolerate it.

However, Archpriest Evans just couldn't understand why the Saint Lady suddenly wanted to protect Bishop William.

These two people don't seem to be very familiar with each other.

Never mind, no need to rush, Evans thought.

When the magic circle is activated and Freya becomes a true god, this strange saint will no longer be a threat.

As for what Ella said, that someone would stop the God's Descent in Hope Town, Evans didn't take it seriously anyway - he probably knew who Ella was referring to, but he had enough confidence in "Freya".

Evans retracted his staff, leaving the chains to bind the dying Bishop William, who was unable to break free. He walked to the side of the stairs and began to wait silently.

Outside the temple, the Imperial City Guards and the Royal Knights had gathered at the edge of the huge blue barrier. However, even the destructive magic unleashed by several court mages could not create even a single hole in the deep blue barrier.

The imperial army had no way to deal with this barrier that was as solid as a tortoise shell.

……

【5: 00】

In Hope Town, Ye Xiao was panting and finally walked up the last spiral staircase and reached the top of the tower.

On the top of the tower was a huge magic circle in operation. In the center of the circle, a huge crystal ball as big as a carriage was slowly rotating, and countless magic circuits on it were emitting a light blue halo.

As the big crystal ball rotated, dazzling blue light spots fell outside the tower like thrown stars.

Ye Xiao took a deep breath and pulled out the long sword from the sheath.

It seems that it would be right to blow this thing up.

……

And the moment Ye Xiao stepped onto the top of the tower, Freya at the foot of the tower sensed it, and a hint of murderous intent appeared on her cold face.

She was about to fly to the top of the tower, but the next moment her body suddenly dissolved into golden liquid.

But the magic power surrounding her body instantly poured into Freya's body, and countless brass-colored threads burst out from the broken chest that was dissolved to only half of it. These threads intertwined with each other and gradually formed the shape of bones and muscle fibers. As the skin was also woven into the threads, it recovered to be intact.

Freya's body recovered, and her clothes all dissolved. But she didn't care. She looked at the pink-haired maid yawning in the open space with a cold face: "You want to provoke God too?"

“Ah… if I had known you were the core, I should have killed you directly.” Grettia yawned with tears in her eyes, as if she was getting more and more sleepy uncontrollably, “Ah, I’m so sleepy… that bastard… if it wasn’t for following him, I wouldn’t have been rejected by the Kingdom of God like this…”

Freya first pointed a finger at the sky, and a few strands of silk threads floated out from her fingertips and instantly woven into dozens of precisely structured mechanical goshawks that circled around her. Then she gently pointed her finger downwards, and the eagles swooped down and turned into dozens of straight lines that whistled towards Gratia.

And Gratia simply stretched out her palm and clenched it, and the alchemical puppets that Freya subsequently created exploded into fragments of golden sand in the air, crackling like a grand fireworks show.

The gradually spreading explosion not only affected the eagle puppet created by Freya, but also caused all parts of her body to suddenly swell as if golden pustules had grown, and then exploded with a "bang".

But this time was different from the tragic situation just now where the whole body was directly dissolved. Only the metallic skin on Freya's body was broken, revealing the brass bones that were no longer human. The next second, countless silk threads stretched out from the edges of the broken skin and weaved the wound back into the smooth skin.

“Adapting so quickly... worthy of the authority of ‘evolution’...” Gradia bit her pink lips. After all, she was just an incarnation projected in someone else’s kingdom of God. Although Freya had not completely become a god, she was the real one after all, and her power had gradually begun to take shape.

She might not be able to win this battle.

Although this place was born in her own territory, the original deal limited her right to interfere, and projecting an avatar in was the limit of what she could do.

We can only hope that Ye Xiao can successfully destroy the magic circle of the tower...

As Gratia was thinking, she suddenly heard two deafening roars. She looked at the scorpion-tailed lion that was split in half beside the tower. The two halves of flesh and blood grew mechanical bodies made of brass parts, and they turned into two scorpion-tailed lions that roared and flew to the top of the tower.

amount……

Gratia looked at the two scorpion-tailed lions soaring in the sky and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly - if Ye Xiao died, then taking Ye Xiao's soul back to hell should not be too much of a loss.

Chapter 50 Holy Flame

【4: 32】

Top of the tower.

Ye Xiao tightly grasped the long sword in his hand, took a step forward, gathered his strength, and chopped at the crystal ball in the center of the tower that was engraved with magic array patterns. However, the sharp sword light only left an insignificant mark on the crystal ball, and a tremendous force suddenly erupted and flew Ye Xiao several meters away.

Why does it feel like it's getting harder and harder, like a turtle shell...

Ye Xiao got up panting. The first two cuts left obvious marks on the crystal ball, but now the marks are almost invisible.

It would be difficult to cut it open with a knife. I could only wait for the effect of the blue bottle to replenish my mental strength, and then use Ella's Evil God Contract to release a big move to see if I could blow it up.

The sound of the crowd below was getting louder and louder, and the residents of Hope Town and the alchemy guards seemed to be catching up soon.

Ye Xiao could only sit on the ground and continue to take out a bottle of mental power medicine and pour it into his mouth.

Although drinking multiple bottles of blue medicine in a short period of time is useless, just like taking two pills or one bottle of medicine will not affect the speed of recovery.

But at least it's some effort.

As I was thinking this, a familiar and loud roar came from below.

Ye Xiao held the bottle in his mouth and covered his ears, and saw a huge creature with metal wings spread out, rising into the sky from the edge of the tower.

The wind pressure almost made him roll again.

The scorpion-tailed lion, which was half flesh and half metal, flapped its wings, and its huge body covered with metal scales slowly landed in front of the crystal ball. On its large, copper-like lens eyes, spiral metal masks opened and closed like conch shells.

"Isn't this guy dead yet?" Ye Xiao recognized this old friend, so he split him in half to prevent him from dying.

I didn't expect that he couldn't kill the opponent. He is worthy of being the God of Evolution. The creatures under his command have evolved to an extraordinary level.

Ye Xiao's mental strength had not recovered yet, so he had no intention of fighting. After all, even if he won, he couldn't destroy the crystal ball that operated the ritual array, so it was meaningless.

But Ye Xiao didn't want to fight but he couldn't care about the opponent. The reborn scorpion-tailed lion roared, stared angrily at the villain who had made him lose twice, and rushed over with all his limbs.

"It's really annoying..." Ye Xiao's scalp tingled. He arched his body and rolled over in an extremely ungraceful donkey-like posture to get rid of the other person who was rushing towards him.

If only he could switch places with his other half. There's nothing they can do over at the Cathedral Square anyway. If Ella were to come over and go all out, she would definitely hang this broken lion and the rebellious Freya below up and beat them up.

If I had known earlier, I would have let the Saint Lady go up to have a boxing match, it would have definitely been exciting.
