You are my wife, don't doubt it!

"We have no choice. With my dad in this condition, we can't go down the stairs by ourselves," said Yu Baolu.

Xiao Yao: "...That's not right, the big sheep is still at the other end of the corridor?"

"You take them down first, I'll go and meet up with Dayang." Yu Bo instructed using the communicator.

Xiao Yao: "Can you do it? You don't have a fortress..."

Yu Bo: "I just woke up."

"...6." Xiao Yao said, "Be careful, there are so many monsters."

As if to prove what Xiao Yao said, with a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened, and a shadow from the elevator stood inside, staring at Xiao Yao and the other two.

"Hi." Xiao Yao said to them politely.

The young man hacked and killed his way through the elevator, then helped Yu Baolu and Yu Texuan into the elevator.

The elevator door closed and slowly moved downwards. There was no power outage or stop as Xiao Yao had worried about, nor did Shadow's claws pierce through the wall of the car and reach in.

"Thank God, Ami...Alleluia." Xiao Yao said.

When they reached the first floor of the hotel, Xiao Yao rushed out first.

"Uncle, are you okay?" Xiao Yao asked.

"Go on your way." said Yu Baolu.

The three of them made many twists and turns, and Xiao Yao kept fighting as he advanced. The further he advanced, the fewer shadows there were, until they disappeared completely.

Yu Baolu pushed open the door of the eucharist and walked in without letting the old man get on his back.

Hey, this is the Eucharist where I come every day, Xiao Yao thought.

In order to be a good and pious child (to show Grandpa Yu), Xiao Yao would sit in the Eucharist for an hour every evening with Yu Luying and Shen Jie throughout the summer camp, so this place was very familiar to him.

It's like going home.

On the soft carpet of the sanctuary was a girl kneeling, with a lace shawl on her head, shivering as she prayed.

"Evil woman! Is it you?" Xiao Yao was shocked.

"Please do not make any noise in the Eucharist." Yu Baolu gently put Yu Texuan down and said, "Why don't you come and help me?"

"Evil woman! Is it you?" Xiao Yao was shocked.

"Please do not make any noise in the Eucharist." Yu Baolu gently put Yu Texuan down and said, "Why don't you come and help me?"

Xiao Yao put down the flashlight and went forward to help, wondering how could this person be so annoying, to the point of being annoying everywhere.

When the old man was seated firmly in his seat, Yu Baolu immediately drew a vertical and horizontal line on his chest and bowed to the Holy Host. Xiao Yao thought he almost forgot, so he also bowed quickly, and then asked Luzia what happened and why she was here.

"I don't know," the girl replied in a tearful voice, "I had just finished using the toilet, and as soon as I flushed the toilet, the power went out in the entire hotel."

Xiao Yao: "..."

Hold it in, don't laugh.

Lucia continued to describe: "Then I saw green everywhere, and there were many people screaming outside the toilet door. I rushed out and said, what are you doing? Are you taking advantage of the power outage to rebel?... What's so funny?"

Xiao Yao said with a straight face: "No, I didn't laugh."

"Then they surrounded me and wanted to beat me up. I was so scared that I ran and screamed. Then I saw Father Yu holding a gun and fighting with them."

Lucia described the scene vividly, as if she were there herself. She talked about how she was captured by Shadow and almost disemboweled, and how Father Yu suddenly grew armor on his body, long hair on his head, and two scimitars in his hands, and rescued her and brought her to the monastery.

"I still suspect that I am dreaming. Am I dreaming? Everyone is frozen, only we can still move..." Lucia half-knelt on the ground, pulling her face hard, and spoke a little incoherently.

"Calm down," Xiao Yao also squatted down and put his hands on the girl's arms: "This is not a dream, I promise you."

"Father Yu was like this at the time, holding his head with his hands, half squatting on the ground," Lucia subconsciously shook Xiao Yao's hands away from her. "He seemed to be mumbling something to the air, and then he became like that, with armor growing on his body, long hair growing on his head, and two scimitars in his hands..."

"Okay, okay, I get it." Xiao Yao said.

This vicious old woman was provoked and turned into Xianglin Sao, Xiao Yao thought.

The lights in the sanctuary were also turned off, but the red lamp hanging in the front left, announcing the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, was still on, providing a tiny bit of illumination to this small "humble room" and even dispelling the green light in the air.

"These shadows really don't dare to get close to the sanctuary." Xiao Yao peeked outside the sanctuary and found that the shadows were all gathered outside an invisible boundary outside the sanctuary door. None of them dared to cross the line.

Lucia looked at the light of the Eucharist and murmured: "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never overcome it..."

"Okay, it works." Xiao Yao said, "Then you stay here and don't move. I'll go buy some... I have to go find Dayang. I'm worried about her condition."

"Hello, hello," Yu Bo's voice came from the communicator: "Dad, have you arrived in the monastery? Give the communicator to Xiao Yao."

"I'm here, I'm fine, eh, okay." Yu Texuan handed the communicator to Xiao Yao, but he couldn't reach it. Xiao Yao was thinking about something and didn't react to take it, so Yu Baolu stood up and stepped forward, took the communicator from the old man, and handed it to Xiao Yao, his eyes full of "You are such an ignorant child."

"Hello, Xiao Yao." Yu Bo said.

"Father Yu, I'm here."

"Where did you say Big Sheep is? Is it the 27th floor?"

"It's the 27th floor. She's maintaining the ice barrier in the corridor. Didn't you find her?"

"I just came over there and didn't see her, and there was hardly any trace of her either." Yu Bo told Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao's heart sank. "How is that possible? Why don't you look for it again? Could it be on the other side?"

Yu Bo: "I've gone downstairs now - go look somewhere else, don't worry too much, since you're fine, that means Dayang must be fine."

Xiao Yao: “That’s right.”

Yu Texuan, Yu Baolu and Lu Jiaya didn't understand the logic behind this, but no one cared to delve into it.

"By the way, where is Shen Jie? Have you seen Shen Jie? I seemed to hear an explosion outside just now. Could Shen Jie have been caught in?" Xiao Yao asked into the intercom.

Yu Texuan, Yu Baolu and Lu Jiaya all looked at Xiao Yao again, their expressions were different but all very complicated.

There was a lot of noise in the communicator and I didn't know what Yu Bo was saying. Finally, I could hear the words "I didn't see her".

"They are both so troublesome..." Xiao Yao said hurriedly, holding the hilt of the sword and about to go out.

There was another burst of "Ziz-z-z" noise coming from the communicator, and another voice joined the channel: "Hello? Can anyone hear me?"

"I can hear you," Yu Bo said, "Who are you?"

"Fuck, this damn thing is finally healed!" The man said, "I'm a hairtail! Shen Jie might be seriously injured, who of you can go and take a look? I can't go ashore, I don't have the strength to go ashore..."

"What?!" Xiao Yao and Lu Jiya were both shocked, each one more nervous than the other: "Where is she?"

When Daiyu explained the approximate location of Shen Jie, Xiao Yao jumped up and was about to run, but was stopped by Yu Bo: "Xiao Yao, I'll go! I'm already going downstairs. I'll go see Shen Jie, you go find Dayang!"

"No, I——" Xiao Yao was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

"My fortress can heal, can yours?" Yu Bo insisted, "Don't forget that it is you who have that kind of bond with Dayang, stop talking nonsense, go find Dayang and bring her back to the sanctuary safely, otherwise you will be the only one to blame! Do you understand?"

Xiao Yao glanced at the way Yu Texuan and Yu Baolu looked at him and said, "I know."

"Okay, be careful and don't be too aggressive." Yu Bo warned.

"Bobo, he's gone." Yu Texuan said, "Go and save Shen Hongsheng's daughter."

Yu Bo didn’t dare to take the elevator, and ran down the 27th floor in one breath, his legs feeling weak.

This set of armor is not too light, and fortunately we didn’t encounter many enemies along the way.

Where did the huge army of shadows just now go in the blink of an eye?

As Yu Bo ran, he harvested the scattered shadows that blocked his way, and he made a war cry with some strange sounds.

I never expected that my fortress would be... him.

Not bad, Yu Bo thought.

Yu Bo rushed out of the main entrance of the Saint Ai Hotel like a whirlwind and was almost hit in the face by a bullet from Daiyu.

"Damn it, hairtail." Yu Bo looked at the dark crater about 20 meters ahead and yelled into the communicator, "Are you firing?"

"Yeah, isn't he handsome?" Daiyu's voice came from the communicator.

"You're so handsome!" Yu Bo yelled, "I'm leaving the hotel now, you better watch out and don't blow up!"

The gunboats at sea immediately ceased firing.

"You are already a priest," Yu Texuan's voice came from the communicator, "You don't speak elegantly at all. How can you be a role model for the church members?"

There is no way to win, Yu Bo muttered to himself.

In fact, the location of Shen Jie described by Hairtail was still vague. We only knew that she was on the beach, but as long as we followed the swarm of shadows, it seemed that we could find her.

Yu Bo was a little puzzled - he could fully understand why the Shadow Group targeted the old man, because the old man was a member of the "organization", but now that Dad had hidden in the sanctuary, they turned to Shen Jie, as if they were determined to put her to death. Why was this?

But it's not surprising. After all, she is also one of the fortress's messengers and is outside the protection of the holy body. It makes sense that Shadow wants to get rid of her.

Yu Bo's heart was lifted up and he ran faster than the group of shadows, holding a katana in his right hand and a wakizashi in his left, waving them like a whirlwind among the group of shadows. The black mist left behind when the shadows dissipated was dripping from the blades of the two swords.

……

……

……

Shen Jie lay dying on the beach, her lifeless eyes staring at the terrifying black moon, her consciousness gradually becoming blurred.

My legs and upper body, which had been in severe pain from the burns, had slowly begun to lose sensation, and my body was becoming lighter and lighter - it felt so good to be free of pain.

Why did the cannonballs stop? Maybe they ran out of ammunition.

The girl turned her head with difficulty - without the cover of artillery fire, countless shadows had surrounded her in three circles inside and outside.

One of the shadows was taller than the others and was walking slowly towards him.

Its right claw formed a spike out of thin air and stabbed it towards its heart.

This shouldn't hurt much, right? Shen Jie closed her eyes.

The girl heard a burst of gunfire, and when she opened her eyes again, the shadow had fallen to the ground and began to dissipate.

Who is...?

The shadow army let out a terrifying scream - just like that day when Master Shi Hui first appeared in the mirror under the bridge. Then, the shadow army was scattered, and a man in armor broke in.

This man had long flowing hair and was wearing a black half-body...metal armor? (Shen Jie wasn't sure what it was called), a ridiculously large red cloak, a white cloth hanging down around his waist, and a long scimitar in his right hand and a short scimitar in his left.

Looking at his face, I found that he was wearing a mask.

His eyes are so clear.

And it seems like I've seen it somewhere.

Who is it? ...

The man danced the two knives, one long and one short, in his hands like windmills, and from time to time he took out a shotgun from his red cloak and fired a shot. If it weren't for three or four hands, it would seem physically difficult to do this.

His movements were so fast that the girl could hardly see him taking out and putting away the gun.

After dealing with one-third of them, the remaining shadows scattered and fled in all directions.

The man turned his head, put the two scimitars, one long and one short, back into his waist, pulled off the red cloak on his back, and while keeping his head turned, he covered himself with the cloak.

Shen Jie wanted to wrap the red cloth tightly, but she was completely unable to move.

The man turned around, squatted beside him, and reached out to help him cover the cloak, covering his entire body except his head.

These eyes... could it be Yu Bo? Isn't Yu Bo a Western priest? What's with this oriental-style armor? It looks like I've seen it in the TV series "Three Kingdoms"...?

Yu Bo placed the gauntlet of his right hand on the girl’s forehead.

The man murmured something in Latin that Shen Jie could not understand. A warm current flowed from the priest's right hand to the girl's whole body - her pain was relieved, her consciousness was clear, and her physical strength seemed to have recovered a lot.

Shen Jie wrapped the red cloth tightly and slowly stood up: "Is it you?"

"You're unrecognizable after this?" the man joked, then bent over and coughed violently. The armor on his body and the two knives on his waist gradually faded and finally disappeared into the air.

When she looked up again, the mask was gone, and Shen Jie saw Yu Bo's pale face.

"Ah! Brother Bo, there's blood at the corner of your mouth!" Shen Jie screamed.

--split line--

Xiao Yao finally found Yu Luying in the private room that he and Yu Te chose to have dinner in when they first arrived.
