Chapter 47. No, You Can't.
The flames in the sinkhole spread in just a few minutes. From a distance, it looked like someone had lit firecrackers in the sinkhole and they were still exploding.
There was a flash of fire, a loud bang and it was also smoking densely.
Even if the Church's people were all pigs, they would have been woken up by such a commotion, not to mention that they were already very vigilant.
Mobis and Sean arrived at the scene "immediately", only to find that someone was faster than them.
"The Valkyrie?"
The old priest was anxious.
He was very clear about what was going on down there. He could not let her find out the truth!
If she found out the truth, she would raise her holy sword and kill him on the spot!
Mobis gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. He then started casting divine spells.
Now that things have come to this, he had to make her stay even if he had to use force.
However, he heard a clunk all of a sudden and froze on the spot.
It was the sound of a holy sword being unsheathed.
The sword was placed on his neck.
Is she going to kill me?
Mobis' neck had goosebumps from the sharp blade, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"Lady Valkyrie!"
Sean hurriedly tried to stop her.
"The holy sword can't attack its own people! You will be punished! It's not worth it!"
Even if Mobis' life was on the line, Sean still wanted to shame the old man.
What did he mean by "not worth it"?
What did Sean mean by that?
Ah?
However, due to the severity of the situation, Mobis did not fixate his thoughts on trivial matters.
"Yes, yes, Sean is right. Valkyrie, this isn't worth it!" Mobis said through gritted teeth.
"The holy sword has indeed requested that I do not attack my own people," Ortlinde said in a serious tone.
"However, if you die under the holy sword, I will lose the recognition of the holy sword. In that case, you will have to find another Valkyrie to fight against the abyss."
They were shocked!
Mobis and Sean looked at each other, both shocked.
She was right. It was not easy for the holy sword to acknowledge someone, and if she was gone, it would be the Holy Spirit's turn to do something instead of the Holy See and Laurentia!
That's not right! When did she become so cunning?
Who taught her this?
Oh right, where's that kid?
"Where's Dr. Nice? Where is he?" Sean blurted out.
Ortlinde shook her head.
"I don't know. I came over when I saw this place was on fire."
She withdrew her sword and took two steps back.
"Don't come after me. If any of you dies in my hands, you'll lose me, your Valkyrie!"
Mobis and Sean had no choice but to stop. They shouted at the people behind them and watched her disappear into the thick smoke.
After a full ten seconds, they hurriedly shouted, "Chase! Protect the Valkyrie! Do as she says!"
"Yes!"
The people behind him filed in, and Mobis and Sean's faces looked uncertain.
"Are you still not going down?" Sean asked him.
"I should be the one asking you this question, right?" Mobis sneered.
Both of them understood that there needed to be an explanation for this matter. It was not about how the matter was resolved, but how they would push the blame to each other after the Holy See and Laurentia blamed them.
What happened next was the church's business.
However, the current matter was their business.
They had to prioritize properly.
"Why don't we go down and see what's going on? Let's find out who sneaked down first. Then, we'll think about how to explain it to the Valkyrie," Sean suggested.
"I'll leave you to take charge, Sean. I'm old, and I'm more suitable to investigate some unusual things. After all, you brought them from all over the grassland. If the Valkyrie asks, this has nothing to do with us."
Sean secretly scolded the old fox for being so sinister. What abnormality could there be? He was clearly shifting the blame!
Then, a panicked servant came to report, saying that he found that the patrol guards on a hidden path had been poisoned by the "Frozen Soul" of the White Spirits, and Cisco, who had been tortured in the afternoon, was nowhere to be found. What was worse was that the Gangrene Tribe, which had a conflict with the White Spirits during the day, had attacked at night, and they were seriously short of manpower.
Mobis' face turned grim and he suddenly asked, "Where's Dr. Nice?"
"He's also gone."
Oh no...
Mobis immediately looked at Sean, but the latter had already turned around and ran down.
"Leave the charging to me!" You're already so old, so you're more suited to deal with the situation up there!"
He shouted and ran away quickly.
…
As soon as she left everyone's sight, Ortlinde's gaze changed. She became smart and cunning. Her eyes were looking for someone. At the same time, she kept muttering to herself.
"Alright, alright, I'll return your body to you after I walk around for a while. At least let me see that guy and hug him. I've given you so many chances, but you didn't know how to grasp them. How long do I have to wait before I can sleep with him?"
"Sigh, what's with your shy look! Do you know how barbaric you look when you're 'tasting the marrow'?! You're just short of throwing him onto the bed with the torch. Do you feel good like a young girl now?! Alright, alright, I won't say it, I won't say it ..."
"Don't worry, I won't mess around. I'll definitely ask for your permission. After all, I owed you back then, so let me be more active now. Didn't I just help you resolve the crisis? If it wasn't for me, would you have said those words?"
"That's more like it!"
After successfully coming to an agreement with herself, she curled her lips and smiled like a fox.
There was no doubt that the only one who could threaten them so wittily was Rosswealth.
The church's people were also stupid. The holy sword in her hand was like an ordinary piece of iron, without any spirituality at all. They actually did not notice anything unusual. They really deserved to be deceived.
Rosswealth quickly stepped into the depths of the forest. As soon as she entered, she saw the Blood Demon's "Super Double Chain Fireball" bursting out. Char was forced to run around like a panicked chicken.
"I can't handle this, so you can have it!"
Rosswealth became more and more cunning in avoiding responsibilities. The Valkyrie fell to the ground and got up again as another person.
It was not a light fall. Her nose was red, her eyes were teary, and her mouth was pouted. She raised the blazing holy sword high and went straight to the Blood Demon.
Zin'rokh had just used the Blood Demon's Blood Assimilation, which absorbed the energy attack and converted it into an attack of the same attribute. He was temporarily stunned, and the sword ray in his field of vision continued to expand. He subconsciously wanted to use Blood Art to escape, but at the critical moment, he looked at Char.
The Blood Demon's eyes were filled with the desire to live, as if he was asking Char could he escape.
Char shook her head slowly and firmly as if he was saying, "No, you can't."
Zin'rokh's movements faltered, and he allowed the holy sword to cut him in half, allowing the clone to take the fall.
The attack triggered the holy sword's penetration effect, Tenacity. It was grand to see the Blood Demon being cut in two and engulfed in holy flames.
Splash!
The bodies fell and melted into two puddles of blood and slipped into the drain, disappearing from sight.
Before Ortlinde could help Char up, a soft 'boom' came from the inside of the sinkhole, followed by an earthquake.
Charging complete! The inner ring was activated!
