-81- Pressure from evil gods

"Lord Linus, Lord Knight, is he dead?"

The old Duke's expression was a little solemn.

"I'm afraid yes, I can no longer sense the aura of his faith. Even this holy emblem has been destroyed. I'm afraid not even his soul can be left..."

The high priest looked at the broken holy emblem in his hand and sighed.

"Who did it? Is it related to Bold's vision just now?"

The old Duke became more serious and frowned slightly.

The high priest was silent for a few seconds and shook his head slightly:

"I have no idea……"

"However, the Guardian Holy Emblem that Erd wears is specially made by the Theocracy. It can withstand even the legendary power for a moment... It is impossible for ordinary people to destroy his soul."

"unless……"

The high priest did not continue.

But thinking of the various strange phenomena in the sky of Bold City just now, the Duke of Bold quickly fell silent.

His expression was uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking of.

"The man has already run away. He ran quite fast. Let's see what traces we can find first. I seem to smell the rotten smell of the undead."

The high priest said.

After saying that, he prayed silently, and the radiance of holiness bloomed in him.

The great priest gently stretched out his hand and sprinkled the light on the ground. As the photons fell to the ground, traces of black breath rose from the soil.

"The power of the undead?"

The old Duke was a little surprised.

As a well-informed Knight of the Blazing Sun, he is no stranger to this power.

Although the Holy Royal Court has always emphasized the need to have faith, there are still a considerable number of extraordinary beings and ordinary people who believe in gods in name, but are actually unbelievers.

It is impossible for the Holy Royal Court to inspect each person one by one, so there are many similar unbelievers, and after their death, their souls will not return to the kingdom of gods.

If the corpses are not disposed of in time, their souls will linger in the world until they die. Some people who encounter special circumstances will turn into dead spirits.

For this reason, almost any noble territory has had incidents of resurrected undead, and eliminating those resurrected undead is also a common task for demon hunting stations and noble lords.

However, feeling the familiar aura of the undead, the old Duke quickly frowned slightly and felt something was wrong:

"The person fighting the Lord Knight is a high-level undead? Is this impossible?"

"Yes, this is impossible. The holy light of my Holy Royal Court is the best at restraining the undead. Unless the person fighting is a wizard king with legendary strength, no one can defeat Erd in such a short period of time..."

The great priest also shook his head.

The old Duke narrowed his eyes:

"It seems that the other party wants to hide their traces..."

"I'm afraid so."

The high priest nodded and continued to use magic to detect traces of the battle.

"There are no traces left. The power of the undead is most suitable for contamination. The other party should be a habitual offender."

After a moment, he shook his head slightly.

The old Duke frowned:

"What mission is the Lord Knight performing?"

"It should be the president of the Society of Rose Hunters, Sebastian Flameheart."

"The Rose Club, I heard that the Rose Club was re-recognized by the church last night."

The old Duke took a deep look at the high priest and spoke with profound meaning.

The high priest was silent for a moment and replied:

"This matter has nothing to do with me, and I did not expect that the Rose would be related to Castel, let alone... that the Rose would be able to withstand the test of the Holy Light."

The old Duke was noncommittal, thought for a moment, and said:

"It shouldn't be Sebastian."

"I have dealt with him before, and he is a very interesting elf."

"He was a staunch unbeliever. He firmly believed that the Moon God destroyed the Old World, causing the elves to have to wander to the New World."

"Not only did he blaspheme the Moon God believed in on Luna Island, but he was also said to have insulted the Archduke of the Vampire Clan. He is a complete lunatic, but surprisingly he is not bad."

"But... I remember that his power has already fallen down a level."

"It should be something else..."

The high priest did not deny it.

He picked up the broken Holy Emblem again and poured a little sacred power into it.

However, the moment the sacred power entered the Holy Emblem, a palpitating aura suddenly rose from the Holy Emblem.

The breath came and went quickly, disappearing in an instant.

But at that moment, the great priest trembled slightly, as if he heard a majestic scolding from ancient times:

"roll--!"

Under that voice, the great priest's face turned pale, and his soul was directly hurt.

He threw the broken Holy Emblem out almost instantly, swaying and almost losing his balance.

Seeing the high priest's appearance, the old Duke's eyes twitched.

He subconsciously looked at the Holy Emblem that was thrown on the ground by the other party, drew out his sword and tried to pick it up, but was instantly stopped by the high priest:

"do not move!"

"Don't touch it!"

"It's contaminated!"

"The evil god...is the power of the evil god! A strange evil god just arrived here!"

The high priest shouted in horror.

Evil God...!

The old Duke's expression suddenly changed.

The high priest then performed a series of sacred purifications on the holy emblem on the ground, and after a long time, he carefully picked it up.

"The breath is gone, He should have gone far."

The high priest breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Duke Bold's face was a little ugly:

"Is it...the one who represents the Thorns and Roses?"

The high priest was silent.

After a long time, he sighed slightly:

"Old man... I'm not sure either."

The old Duke suddenly became angry:

"Sir Linus, I salute you because you are a priest of the church!"

"As a priest, you have the obligation to report the resurrection of the evil god!"

"Except for the Blood Demon Order, there has been no new cultist organization in Boulder for a long time."

"The person who can kill a great knight is most likely the mysterious evil god who represents the Thorn Rose!"

"Obviously...after so many days, His strength has recovered a lot."

"Sir Linus, we can no longer hide this matter from our superiors."

"I know you want to compete for the position of officiant, but this is Boulder! I am the Duke of Boulder! I also need to be responsible to the people of Boulder!"

"If this matter gets serious, even if you become the officiant, you will be investigated and punished! All your efforts will be meaningless!"

After listening to the old Duke's words, the high priest's expression was uncertain.

After a long time, he sighed:

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, this matter... I will handle it."

"Hmph! Please hurry up!"

The old Duke snorted coldly and walked away.

Watching Duke Bold leave, the high priest's face didn't look good either.

He glanced at the broken Holy Emblem with an uncertain expression. After hesitating for a long time, he seemed to have made some determination and put it in his arms.

The high priest did not deceive the old duke. He indeed sensed the terrifying aura left by the evil god on the holy symbol.

However, he did not tell the other party that even after many purifications, the aura on the holy symbol did not completely disappear...

This mysterious evil god may have a higher status than he imagined.

It was so high that even he had some crazy thoughts...
