Under normal circumstances, the other party would probably realize what was happening, but if they fall into her trap, it will be like the situation just now.
Upon seeing the Arbiter's death, Ockham frowned. A seventh-tier being had been killed so easily; no wonder Servis had warned him to be careful.
He glanced at the archbishop standing beside him, who remained expressionless, as if the one who had just died was not an adjudicator of the Eternal Church, but a stranger unrelated to him.
Noticing Ockham's gaze, the archbishop smiled and said, "It was his honor to give his life for the Lord, and he will live forever in the Lord's Kingdom."
"As His Excellency the Archbishop said, these people are somewhat troublesome to deal with, and some sacrifices are necessary."
Ockham responded with a smile, while also making a firm resolution in his heart that once this matter was over, he would never have anything to do with this group again.
Just as Ockham was talking with the archbishop, in a distant dense forest, a group of eternal believers were praying devoutly, and leading this group was none other than Saint Miriam of the Eternal Church.
As they prayed fervently, a ray of holy light shone down from the sky, and an angel with six wings descended with that ray of light.
Majestic, sacred.
The moment the angels descended, it was as if a second sun appeared in the sky. ∥″⊙∝【'
Volume 1: Chapter 651 I'm your sister Rumia~
"Wow."
Elise watched with some excitement as the six-winged angel descended from the sky. It was not a real six-winged angel, but a projection created by the Eternal Church after uniting its believers through a special ritual.
After all, the Eternal Church has no shortage of people.
Through rituals, even low- to mid-level believers can join high-level wars, just like they are now.
This projection of a six-winged angel is already close to the ninth rank in strength.
"Rumia, this projection is yours."
Rumia, who was suddenly called out, was stunned for a moment, then pointed to herself: "Me, fight a six-winged angel?"
"Yes, I have faith in you."
Although she didn't know where Elise's confidence came from, since her master had already said so, she, as the dog, just had to obey.
Rumia licked her lips; the once dignified and elegant woman now seemed like a completely different person.
With Elise's words, it meant that she no longer needed to pretend and could freely express herself.
A blood-stained golden spear appeared in her hand, and a pair of pure white wings unfurled from her back, giving Rumia a captivating yet holy aura.
The majestic six-winged angel looked at the enemy charging towards it, and just as it was about to attack, it suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Rumia knew what had happened.
If nothing unexpected happens, this six-winged angel projection is likely being controlled by Miriam, which explains why it didn't attack immediately upon seeing her. No wonder Elise assigned her to deal with this projection.
The master is really naughty, but the naughtier she is, the more she likes it.
Saintess Miriam, who was presiding over the ceremony, stared blankly at Lumia before her and couldn't help but call out, "Sister Lumia!"
At this moment, not only Miriam discovered Rumia's identity, but the archbishop also discovered the former saintess of his own church. His eyes were filled with cold killing intent as he looked at Rumia.
If Rumia had died, she would have died a worthy death, but she chose betrayal, which is blasphemy against the Lord!
"The Arbitrator Squad will eliminate the heretics who blaspheme against the Lord."
The Arbitrator squad, which had been lurking near the battlefield, also rushed towards Rumia without hesitation. As fanatical believers, they naturally could not tolerate Rumia's existence.
The Arbitrators team consists of four members, each at the seventh rank, and they are highly skilled in teamwork, capable of fighting even against eighth-rank opponents.
Elise, of course, wouldn't let the Arbiter team disturb Lumia and Miriam's conversation. She gently leaned close to Elena's ear and whispered, "Thank you for your help."
Elena nodded slightly, and then immediately entered her dragon form.
Even when facing the Arbitrators' team, she dared not let her guard down. In other words, no matter who she was facing, as long as they were enemies, she would go all out, even if they were powerless.
Elise understands this all too well.
"Saint Miriam, what are you doing? Why don't you kill the blasphemer!"
Upon hearing the archbishop's voice, Saintess Miriam snapped out of her daze and quickly said, "I think Sister Rumia is definitely being controlled. Please give me some time; I'm sure I can awaken her!"
"I'll say it again, eliminate her!"
The archbishop, who had been smiling while chatting with Ockham, now exuded a chilling killing intent.
Miriam bit her lower lip, choosing to temporarily ignore the archbishop's instructions. Although she knew what awaited her if she did so, she did not regret it. She was determined to bring her sister Rumia back to her side.
"Sister Rumia, it's me, Miriam! Wake up and get away from that witch!" Miriam shouted as she manipulated the six-winged angel to unleash its purifying power.
Faced with the purifying light before her, Rumia did not flinch, but let the light fall upon her.
Seeing this, a hint of anticipation flashed in Miriam's eyes. The six-winged angel summoned through a special ritual released a very powerful purifying force. She believed that even if her sister Rumia was bewitched, she could definitely be purified.
As the light of purification faded, Rumia looked dazed, as if she had just woken up.
Seeing her sister Rumia react this way, she couldn't help but get excited. She felt as if she could see her familiar sister Rumia about to return to her side.
Miriam couldn't help but control the six-winged angel to open its arms to her beloved sister Rumia.
Rumia slowly floated towards the six-winged angel, her previously dazed eyes gradually becoming clearer.
Even the archbishop couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. If Rumia was truly bewitched, he believed that the Lord would be able to accept her back as a faithful believer.
But just as Rumia approached the six-winged angel, the Godslayer Spear pierced through the angel's chest. There was no blood, only golden fragments drifting down, like a golden rain.
As the controller of the six-winged angel, Miriam felt as if her chest had been pierced, but her heart ached more than the pain of being pierced.
She didn't understand why, even after being purified, her sister Rumia still hadn't returned to her former self.
Taking advantage of the other party's momentary daze, Rumia chuckled and fired a few more shots at the six-winged angel, saying, "It's natural that your purification was useless, since I'm perfectly sober right now."
"I'm sorry, Miriam." Rumia's breathing suddenly became heavy, and her fair cheeks flushed red. "I've already taken on the form of my master."
"No, no, no!" Miriam desperately tried to control the six-winged angel to snatch her beloved sister Rumia back.
But she soon discovered that she had lost control of the six-winged angel.
The once holy six-winged angel was now covered in signs of corruption; although it hadn't collapsed yet, it was close to it.
Before the six-winged angel completely collapsed, Rumia said to Miriam, "Haven't you been looking for me? Why don't you just come to my side? Once you're here, you'll understand the beauty of your master, and you'll experience true joy!"
“No, you are not my sister Rumia.” Miriam didn’t want to accept reality.
"I am your sister Rumia, the one who always gently touches your head and cheers you on."
"No, you're not! My sister Rumia could never be as promiscuous as you. You must be a cultist in disguise. Don't try to fool me!"
"That's because you don't understand me; you only see the mask I wear."
With just a simple sentence, Miriam fell into complete silence, and the six-winged angel completely collapsed at that moment.
Volume 1: Chapter 652 Too Many Chosen Ones
"Wow, I'm actually really amazing!"
As the six-winged angel disintegrated into specks of light and disappeared, a pleased smile appeared on Rumia's lips.
However, her smile quickly vanished as she sensed that many enemies were eyeing her menacingly, each one wishing they could tear her apart.
Rumia shrank back slightly, then quickly returned to Iris's side, saying pitifully, "Master, it's so scary here. They're all staring at me."
"You just like being stared at, don't you~" Iris chuckled, then reached out and ruffled Rumia's hair. "Since you did a good job, I'll give you the reward you want when we get back."
Upon hearing about the reward, Rumia, who had been looking pitiful, instantly became excited and even let out a soft "woof" in Iris's ear.
From afar, Miriam, who had just left the dense forest, happened to see the two talking intimately. Her already lifeless eyes were now filled with even more deathly stillness.
Why, why did it turn out like this?
Seemingly sensing someone's gaze, even on this dangerous battlefield, Elise couldn't help but curl a pleased smile at the corners of her mouth.
"It seems your juniors haven't given up yet."
Rumia blinked and then said, "Master, may I kiss you?"
"Considering the special circumstances, I gave my permission."
After receiving a positive reply, Lumia kissed Iris without hesitation, being careful not to be too presumptuous, but still kissing Iris's lips.
The soft sensation, and the feeling of being watched by everyone, brought an alluring blush to Rumia's fair cheeks, and a mark of pleasure appeared in her eyes.
Sensing that Rumia seemed about to push her luck by sticking out her tongue, Elise gave her a light tap on the head: "That's enough. Don't you even know what the situation is?"
If we were at home or somewhere alone, Elise might have let her stretch out, but we're still in the middle of a battle.
Rumia smiled a little shyly: "I was just captivated by Master's charm~"
Elise rolled her eyes, then fired another arrow at the distant mountain peak.
"Guaranteed to hit, double the power."
Despite the incoming arrows, the heavily armored knight remained calm and chose to shield the heroic spirit behind him from the attack.
However, the moment the arrow struck the light shield, a nauseating, foul power erupted, instantly covering the entire shield and even rapidly spreading to the heavily armored knight.
Although he reacted quickly, he was still corrupted by the power of filth.
Moreover, he didn't notice that as the light shield disappeared, another arrow landed on him. Under the influence of the corrupting power, accompanied by a series of shrill screams, the heavily armored knight's body underwent a terrifying distortion.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a terrifying monster devoid of reason.
The knight, now a monster and driven mad, turned and charged toward the elf wielding a longbow, but was soon engulfed by countless vines.
The elven girl, now transformed into a heroic spirit, remained expressionless as she manipulated vines to use the mutated knight as a shield, blocking the attacks while simultaneously unleashing a barrage of arrows across the battlefield.
Sensing the life force contained within the arrows, Elise did not hesitate and immediately activated the Mark of Gluttony, devouring all the arrows before turning around and releasing the rain of arrows she had devoured in that direction.
Under the barrage of arrows, a group of eternal believers hidden in the distance were also forced to begin defending themselves against the attack.
Those people had somehow hidden themselves there shortly after the battle began, seemingly preparing some forbidden ritual.
The more you interact with the Eternal Church, the more you should realize that you should never underestimate those seemingly harmless believers. No one knows what terrifying things they might unleash at a crucial moment.
The archbishop raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, never expecting that one of his carefully concealed backup plans would be discovered so easily.
"Lord Ockham, I hope you can help keep them in check."
Upon hearing the archbishop's words, Ockham nodded and then looked towards the battlefield.
He planned to find someone easier to bully, after all, he had paid a considerable price to suppress the noise of fate, and most importantly, Servis was not around, so he naturally did not need to stand out too much.
As the power of destiny surged, Ockham also saw the threads of fate connecting everyone present.
There's nothing particularly special about my side, but Elise's fate line is truly spectacular.
Putting aside the discordant element of fate surrounding Elise, why are there so many chosen ones around her?
Although he had done some investigation beforehand, and with the information Servis had given him, he already knew that the other party had some chosen ones around them.
But isn't this a bit too much?
Moreover, the fate lines of these chosen ones are more complex than the last, and even he cannot easily manipulate them.
Most importantly, the fate lines of these chosen ones all seem to be more or less intertwined with Elise's fate line.
"Lord Ockham?"
At the archbishop's prompting, Ockham snapped out of his reverie: "Sorry, I suddenly remembered something. I'll go help right away."
After saying that, Ockham disappeared from where he stood and reappeared on the battlefield in the blink of an eye.
Ockham's appearance with his white hair immediately attracted a lot of attention, with Elena and Nora being the most vocal, since both of them had been tricked by the white-haired man before.
"Who's going to deal with this dragon? I want to go kill the white-haired man!" Nora shouted at the group on the shore after swinging her greatsword and sending the dragon flying.
"I'd also like to change my opponent," Elena said menacingly while fighting the Arbiter team.
“I’ll take care of Miss Nora,” Elira said as she walked into the sea.
She did not choose to fly, but instead stepped directly onto the sea. The sea, which had been turbulent because of the blue dragon, gradually calmed down after her appearance.
Seeing that Elira had taken over from Nora, Elise said to Elena, "Leave the Arbiter Squad to me. You can go and kill whoever you want."
Upon hearing Elise's words, Elena did not hesitate and disappeared from the Arbitrators' sight.
Volume 1: Chapter 653 Forced Recollection
"Two?"
Ockham sensed two intense killing intents and couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.
He should have been able to hold off one person, but now it's become two.
