Wizard: Adventures in Two Worlds-Chapter 559 - 14: Entry

Base.

An elderly priest with white hair holds an oil lamp, lighting the torches one by one as usual.

"Merciful and great Moon Goddess, your faithful followers pray to you, wishing for a next life..."

"God said: The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep."

"He said: Let there be light, and there was light in the world..."

Passing apprentice priests mostly gave him strange looks, as if this person was a weirdo.

The Gods have already fallen!

The Moon Goddess is no exception.

The former Holy Hall took the resurrection of the Goddess as its mission, but after bustling for hundreds of years, nothing was found.

And now.

The power of the Otherworldly Divine has already infiltrated, still holding onto the so-called Goddess is nothing but self-deception.

Decades ago, the top of the Holy Hall already gave up on resurrecting the Goddess, turning to seek other paths.

Of course.

There are always some people who are still devoted to the so-called ’faith’, these kinds of people have gradually become marginalized.

"Tutor."

A young man who was lighting the lamps ahead turned his head to look back:

"Will God really save us?"

"First save yourself, then God will save you." The old priest heard this and smiled, answering according to the scriptures:

"God will not save those who willingly degenerate and lose hope; when facing despair without changing hearts, miracles will naturally appear."

"Really?" The young man’s eyes were bewildered:

"They all say the Goddess is dead, that we should turn to other Divine, praying to statues and idols cannot bring anything."

"Nonsense!" The old priest’s face sank:

"Only mortals will die, God never will."

"And our belief in the Divine is not to gain anything but because God’s guidance is correct."

"Only the Evil God will lure hearts with benefits; the Righteous God seeks peace of mind, mercy, and justice."

"Yes." The young man bowed his head:

"The tutor is right."

The old priest shook his head gently, knowing his words couldn’t convince the other; once seeds of doubt are planted, they will sooner or later take root and lead to the evil path, just like other apprentices who once followed him.

Alas!

The Holy Hall is no longer the Holy Hall of the past, it won’t guide people to nobility, only lead them to hell.

"Hiss..."

At that moment, a black-robed priest approached with two Desecration Abnormal Beasts, blocking the two.

The abnormal smell and hissing from the Desecration Abnormal Beasts made the young man subconsciously hide behind the old priest.

"Fran!"

The black-robed priest’s expression was stern:

"Under the order signed by the Second Elder, I now arrest you in the name of ’colluding with the Evil God’."

"Colluding with the Evil God?" The young man was stunned, hurriedly said:

"Senior, is there a misunderstanding? The tutor has never left the base, how could he possibly collude with the Evil God?"

"Whoosh!"

The black-robed priest shook his hand, revealing a scroll with the portraits of a man and a woman.

"Fran, you recognize them, don’t you?"

"Jerry, Nicole." The old priest nodded:

"I recognize them, they are good kids, still holding onto their faith in these times."

"That’s right." The black-robed priest sneered:

"Let’s go!"

"This..." The old priest was stunned, as if realizing something, a look of helpless bitterness appeared on his face, nodded:

"Alright."

"Tutor." The young man was terrified:

"No!"

Although young, he knows what the clothes of the black-robed priest represent, the Holy Hall Law Enforcement Officer only acts against those who defy ’faith’, and once they act, it’s almost certain they won’t return.

"Hmph!"

The black-robed priest snorted coldly:

"You’re coming with me too."

"What?" The old priest’s expression changed:

"He’s just a child, he doesn’t understand anything."

"Whether he understands or not, you have no say." The black-robed priest’s expression was stern:

"Come back with me and we’ll talk!"

...

The old priest’s body trembled, his expression changed between struggle, unwillingness, anger..., finally turning to helplessness.

"God, please grant your blessings!"

For his lament, the black-robed priest sneered, was about to reach out when he suddenly halted his movement.

"Who?"

He quickly turned, looking towards a dark corner, the two Desecration Abnormal Beasts beside him roared and rushed over.

"Whoosh!"

Two intersecting flashes appeared out of nowhere.

Holy Cross Slash!

"Bang!"

The two Desecration Abnormal Beasts whimpered and were flung away, the black-robed priest’s expression froze.

A cross crack appeared on his body.

"Sizzle..."

The crack expanded, splitting his body into four parts, blood splattered from the fissures, making the scene fall silent.

"Go!"

The female priest wielding a sharp sword stepped out from the corner, signaling to the old and young:

"Leave here quickly."

"Josie." The old priest’s face showed movement:

"It’s you."

"Hurry." Josie’s face was grim:

"The base is under surveillance by the Evil God everywhere, let’s leave quickly while the Second Elder is not here."

"That’s right." The young man reacted faster, nodding urgently:

"Tutor, let’s go quickly."

As they spoke, the two Desecration Abnormal Beasts rushed over again, claws waving as they fought with Josie.

The Desecration Abnormal Beasts possess the strength of a Legendary Knight, fearless of death and pain, moreover, due to the Evil God Bloodline within, they can heal quickly unless suffering limb severing or beheading.

Thus, when fighting, they are far more troublesome than ordinary Legendary Knights.

Josie stands out among the priests in the base, yet it’s challenging to completely deal with them swiftly.

"Go!"

Swinging her sword to repel the attacking Desecration Abnormal Beasts, Josie shouted:

"Go quickly!"

The trio fought while escaping, seeing the exit ahead, but two burly figures blocked the way.

"Mechanical Puppet!"

The young man looked despairingly:

"It’s over!"

Products crafted by the followers of the Mechanical Puppet Master creator, made of hard metal, covered in lethal weapons, also possessing Legendary level strength.

"Alas!"

The old priest’s body trembled, tremblingly drew a short sword from his waist, eyes showing determination:

"For faith!"

"Boom!"

He stabbed forward, and the two Mechanical Puppets exploded, leaving the trio stunned.

"Tutor." The young man blinked:

"You’re so powerful."

"..." The old priest opened his mouth:

"It wasn’t me."

In the place where the Mechanical Puppets stood, flames outlined a portal filled with strange patterns, a hand reaching out from that portal.

Carl stepped out of the Flame Gate, looking at his location, shaking his head gently:

"Why at the base entrance?"

"This..." Nicole showed embarrassment:

"I feared if problems arose, we might need to escape, so I asked Old Fran to position it here."

"Alas!" Carl sighed:

"Forget it."

He stepped forward, shouting at the two approaching Desecration Abnormal Beasts:

"Wretched creatures!"

"Stop now!"

The high-level Pale Wings bloodline aura emanated out, freezing the Desecration Abnormal Beasts in place.

"You head to the Desecration Abnormal Beast breeding area first."

Carl took out a dozen drum-like objects from his body, handing them to everyone present:

"These can control the Desecration Abnormal Beasts, with their help, you can temporarily control the base."

This is the result of his research in the past year.

Based on the Holy Hall’s technology and Bloodline Magic, Three Disks Skill can seize control of Desecration Abnormal Beasts from the Holy Hall Priest.

Of course.

It can only seize low-level control; encountering himself or Holy Hall Elders, it would still be restricted.

"Yes!"

"Let’s go!"

The agreed plan, everyone took the drum-like objects and nodded affirmatively.

"Fran?"

Carl looked at the old priest:

"Take me to the location of the Pale Wings right hand."
