Chapter 66 The Dark Lady
"My first question is, did your Light Church send anyone else besides you this time?" Delphi said in a cold tone, "Don't try to lie to me. My Lord sees everything. In Him
You can't hide your secrets under his gaze."
Deputy Commander Bilton shivered.
He had to admit that he had never thought of lying at all.
Ever since he witnessed the sudden wildfire that destroyed the world and destroyed the world, Bilton has been filled with bone-deep fear of the evil god behind the Dark Temple.
"No," Bilton replied with a stiff throat, "Archbishop Aknelga believes that with most of the troops of the Guardian Knights, it is enough to completely wipe out you evil... believers of the great God of Darkness."
"Then he is really a fool," Delphi commented. "I am very curious whether he can still hold the position of Archbishop after he lost so many elite troops of the Church of Light because of his stupidity."
Bilton did not dare to speak. He knew that this was not something he should discuss.
"My second question is... who was the murderer of Isabella in your church two years ago?" Delphi pondered for a moment, then asked. Compared to just now, Delphi's tone sounded different
Colder and more decisive.
"Isabella...is that saint of yours?" Bilton hissed.
"That's right."
Bilton lowered his head and felt his heart pounding.
He knew that behind this question, there was a secret that the Church of Light had hidden for many years. Once he told this secret, it would mean that he had completely betrayed the Church of Light and could never go back.
"Isabella is not dead yet." A few minutes later, he heard himself say in a trembling voice.
"What did you say?" Upon hearing this, Delphi suddenly raised his voice and seemed to find it difficult to remain calm.
"Isabella is still alive," Bilton raised his head and looked directly at Delphi and explained, "She...she is locked in the dungeon of the Northern Trial House...the deepest cell. His Majesty the Pope once thought
Simply burn her to death on the stake, but Archbishop Nerga believes that she should hide some unknown secrets involving the God of Darkness itself. As long as they obtain these secrets, they will have the opportunity to destroy the Dark Temple.
Total destruction.”
Delphi quickly regained his composure. He looked at Bilton seriously and asked word by word:
"So did they succeed?"
"No," Bilton replied without hesitation, "The Dark Saint is very tight-lipped. No matter what methods the Light Church uses, they can't get any useful information from her. Sometimes, we even suspect that she is not a human at all, but
A puppet refined by the God of Darkness... Otherwise, how could she have persisted for so long under any kind of torture?"
Delphi did not speak. But Bilton could clearly feel that the atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense, making him breathless.
I don't know how much time passed before Delphi finally said slowly: "How many troops has the Church of Light deployed at the Northern Trial Center?"
"A whole order of Judgment Knights," Bilton answered.
"Besides, do you have any secrets you want to tell me?"
Bilton's breathing became rapid again.
Of course he knew that the other party was opening his mouth.
However, urged by a strong survival instinct, he blurted out: "Yes, I do! When the previous total lunar eclipse occurred, the goddess sent an oracle in the Cathedral of Light. As for the content of the oracle, the Pope is currently the only one.
People know.”
"Oracle..." Delphi said thoughtfully, "Is there any more?"
Bilton shook his head and replied: "That's all I know."
"Very good," Delphi chuckled, "In that case, you can rest in peace under the care of our Lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out a hand, and black mist rose from the palm of his hand, surrounding Bilton, penetrating his body, and corroding his soul from the outside in.
"But you clearly promised me..."
At the moment when his soul was about to be annihilated, Bilton's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief on his face, and he roared at the top of his lungs.
"Billon, are you curious why I broke the promise I just made?
"Do you remember that when Isabella was killed by your Church of Light... no, she was stabbed three times in the waist and abdomen when she was taken away," Delphi's tone sounded calm, as if she was just telling a story.
A story that has nothing to do with me, "There were three people who took action at that time, one was Nerga, one was your group leader, and the other was you.
"Since that day, I have sworn an oath at the altar of my Lord, and I will never rest in peace until the three of you lose their souls."
Hearing this, Bilton stared at him, as if he wanted to say something, but could no longer make any sound.
The next moment, his body turned into thousands of fragments.
Like confetti flying all over the sky, dancing in the moonlight against the biting cold wind.
Delphi still stood where he was, motionless.
It was only then that the other believers of the Dark Temple came out from under the cover of the night and gathered around Delphi. Their total number of people together was less than a hundred!
"Dear High Priest, we won," someone said excitedly, "Thank you Lord! This time, we only sent out a few dozen people, and the whole army of the Church of Light was wiped out!"
"Yes, we won," Delphi said calmly, "but all the wildfire in our inventory has been used up. Our most loyal believer, Isabella, is still being tortured in the dungeon of the Church of Light's trial."
"What?" The believers were shocked.
The impact this sentence brought to them was no less than the oracle sent down by the God of Darkness.
"Then what should we do?" the believers asked eagerly.
When the power of the Dark God has not yet fully recovered, wildfire can be said to be the most powerful weapon of the Dark Temple.
Without wildfire, it would have been impossible for them to break through the Trial House, let alone rescue Saint Isabella and restore the Dark Temple.
"What else can we do besides praying to our Lord to send down the gods to help us create new wildfires?" Delphi replied, "Go back quickly! Kneel down in front of the altar and offer the most abundant sacrifice. Alas,
I only hope that the great God of Darkness can have mercy on us as always."

At the same time, the capital of Braden Kingdom and the mansion of the York family.
Alan and Howard sat at the desk, looking through "Spell Modeling" together, studying new ways to construct magic spells.
However, at this moment, Allen once again felt a slight swelling and pain in his head, and vaguely heard countless murmurs quietly coming from the mysterious dark crystal.
