The light easily penetrated the tough wings and penetrated into her chest, causing a searing sting. Lily quickly transformed back into her original shape and rolled to one side to dodge, but the light followed closely behind her and there was no trace of it at all.
Signs of stopping.
Lily never expected such an encounter. She didn't know the identity of the ball, but she could recognize the meaning of the light. It was a pure positive energy ray, or it had a more commonly known name - "Holy Light"
".
Different from the miraculous light that burns evil people to ashes and heals good people in rumors, the real "holy light" is just the purest energy. No matter the tough skin of the devil, the strong scales of the dragon, or the angels are always enveloped
No amount of mysterious protection can block this light in the slightest.
But the rumors are at least a little bit right. Those who can use "holy light" must be celestial beings with pure blood. Fallen angels or mixed-blood celestial beings can still retain most of their talents, but they often no longer have the ability to use this energy.
However, the biggest problem is here. In a polluted forest, there is a pure-blooded Celestial Clan who has not yet fallen?
There must be something wrong, Lily cursed secretly in her heart. Unfortunately, complaining could not change her current predicament. The female mercenary continued to avoid the light while hoping that the other party could understand her language.
"Wait a minute!" she shouted, "We are not enemies, let alone bad people, but we are here to restore this forest to its original state!"
There was no response from the colorful sphere, and the light continued to chase Lily closely. If she was not careful, it would add a fresh burn to her body - according to her feeling, there have been five or six burns in total. If not,
More.
This is not okay, being beaten unilaterally is not her preference. Lily gritted her teeth and no longer avoided the light, but turned around and charged towards the center of the platform at full speed in a zigzag pattern. With the tenacity of her body, even if she was "
"Holy Light" is directly irradiated, and it will not be fatal in a short period of time - as long as the enemy can be defeated quickly.
In just a moment, Lily had already crossed a distance of more than ten meters and was approaching the ball. She jumped into the air with all her strength, aimed at the colorful ball floating in the air, and punched hard.
The fist passed directly through, but apart from a burst of numbness and stinging, there was no feeling of hitting any entity. She rolled on the spot, turned around, and saw that the ball was still floating in place, seemingly unharmed.
The attempt failed, and Lily finally determined that continuing to delay was just a waste of time. She ran in a circle to the edge of the platform, jumped, and submerged into the thick and dangerous sea of clouds again.
She allowed her body to fall downwards until the clouds moved above her head, and then she transformed into the form of the wind element - the reason was simple, it was the fastest flying "creature" she knew.
Just ten seconds later, the wind element, which was smaller than the original one, rushed out from under the thundercloud and returned to Al and the others. She returned to Lily's posture, holding the machine man's arm slightly tiredly. Regardless of which
The light from the "sphere" and the lightning strike when it finally passed through the peaks all caused real damage to her.
"How about it!" Elio came forward and looked into the sky with a wary expression, seemingly ignoring Lily's state at all, "Have you lured it down?"
She glared at Elio angrily, but followed his gaze - except for the gloomy thunderclouds and dense lightning, there was nothing there.
The other party failed to be "led down" as Elio suggested. Lily felt that this was not necessarily a bad thing. If it was really pursuing it, she would not be sure to protect An He from the other party's attack.
Others.
"It's not the clouds above." Lily curled her lips and narrated her experience on the platform from beginning to end to the rest of the team. During the narration, An asked her for more details from time to time, and she relied on
Stick to your memory and give as specific an answer as possible.
"What did you say? A colorful ball that can use "holy light"?" Elio showed strong surprise as always, "Could it be that Cang Yun... was turned into this by that lich?
Just... press it into a ball or something..." His voice became smaller and smaller, and he seemed to know that his guess was probably not very reliable.
"Cang Yun doesn't know how to use holy light." Lily explained, then ignored Elio, "Ann, what do you think?"
The girl picked up the pen and started writing in the notebook, stopping to think for a moment from time to time. After about two or three minutes, she turned around the notebook and showed the text to Lily.
"A book I once read mentioned that kind of colorful sphere. It should be Caleb, a kind of 'defensive posture' of high-level Celestials who are prone to chaos. In addition, according to my speculation, it is similar to the one in the lake.
That 'core', he should be the reason why the Cliff of Kings becomes like this."
Lily nodded with satisfaction. The first half of what An said was consistent with her thoughts, but she had not thought of the second half - but she didn't care about the specific reason. An had already proved her "conjecture" with the facts along the way.
reliability.
"Good job? Much better than that guy Elio." She praised An again, "So, what should we do with the ball?"
"Generally speaking, high-level celestial beings can communicate with any living being. But he may have been affected by some kind of... influence, so he cannot respond to your question and remains in his current form." An thought for a while and wrote cautiously.
, "This is just my conjecture. If we can find a way to get him back to his normal state and then take him away from that platform, maybe the problem here can be solved."
"What if the result of doing this is unsuccessful." It was Alphonse who asked the question. For agency people, careful consideration is almost an instinctive part. "Or if we can't do it, what should we do?"
"Then we can only find a way to 'kill' Him, but that is not the result we want to achieve." An shook his head and quickly wrote, "I heard that killing a high-level Celestial Clan will be cursed.
oh."
"Ann, can you please stop saying such scary things!" This time, Bell got ahead of Elio, "Curse or something... I don't want to see this weird thing from a wizard again! Especially Luo Luo.
It’s on my head!”
Lily couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Bell was still deeply impressed by the "curse" he had seen before, which was that of Earl Campbell. Of course, this was also related to the environment in which he grew up. The Sachi people feared ghosts and gods and thought it offended their ancestors and
God's people will be horribly cursed until they correct their mistakes.
"Okay, let's not talk about the curse." She waved her hand, interrupting Bell and Elio's low discussion, "Anyway, how can we change it back to its "original appearance"?"
"It's still just a guess -" An quickly responded, "The defensive posture has limited attack methods. If you can pose a threat to him, maybe he will rely on instinct to change the form he adopts."
"In other words, how many more people need to go together?" Lily clapped her hands, expressing satisfaction with the answer, "In this case, Grum, please stay and protect An. Everyone else, follow us and teach you a lesson.
Look at that Celestial Clan who doesn’t listen to what others say!”
