Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 127 Demon Hunter

Just as Adele and Vinata caught up with the fleeing craftsman, the battle between Sister Vespe and the demigod-level Demon Tower broke out.

On one side are the demons who have gained demigod-level power through a mixture of low-sequence extraordinary characteristics from various sources, but have fallen into a semi-crazy state. On the other side are the armed nuns whose mission is to hunt down heretics, who have forcibly elevated their status in a short period of time through a large number of magical items and high-level seals. The conflict is irreconcilable.

The bronze bell on the rooftop rang out a sound like an angry roar, and countless demons fell off the walls that looked like the womb of a giant beast, sharpening their claws and flapping their membrane wings.

The demonic language they uttered echoed in the tower's unique internal structure, and finally converged into a tangible evil curse at the center, tearing at Vespe's spirit on both the spiritual and real levels and hindering her steps.

"...The servants of God used their swords to plow through the frozen soil, allowing the people of Feysac to plant the seeds of hope."

Ignoring the demonic curses that were already chorusing in her ears, Sister Vesper simply chanted a prayer in a low voice, while at the same time pulling out a broad-bladed cross sword from behind her with one hand and swinging the hideous-looking flail with the other. A tiny silver light flashed where the flail touched the ground, and then disappeared in an instant.

However, the next second, violent energy gushed out directly from the ground, and the entire tower was shaking slightly. She tore down the floor of the top floor, and the demon embryos born from the walls on all sides fell straight to the ground with her. In mid-air, they were caught in the morning storm created by Sister Vespe's giant sword and burned up in the shining morning light.

There are indeed many enemies, but for the servants of the God of War, this is normal.

Vesper stood on the ground below. The tower had been used to isolate her from the earth, and now she had to smash the obstacles until she could step on solid ground again.

However, there were other things that were not destroyed by the light storm just now, and they were the demons specialized in defense. Before they became demons, they were creatures with strong defense, and after becoming demons, their specialties were greatly enhanced, allowing them to survive under Vesper's light storm.

They swarmed toward Vespe, their exoskeletons or shells glowing like phosphorescence in the darkness, like moths to a flame.

Then, their target really became fire.

Vespe casually threw away the cross sword, which was at least equivalent to a Sequence 5 magical item, and took out a magical item that looked like a sickle that a farmer used to cut wheat from the coffin behind him. He slammed it against the flail given by the God of War, splashing sparks of fire.

Then, Sister Vesper swung the sickle in a guiding manner. Where her arm passed, white flames instantly rose up, forming an extension of the sickle's blade. Wherever the flaming sickle passed, the demons fell like wheat being cut.

"…in the harvest season, farmers harvest vegetables and grains just as warriors harvest the heads of their enemies."

While praying, Sister Vespe's hands were moving quickly. She raised her hands and smashed the next layer of the ground, and burned the summoning array on the ground with the light of morning light.

"The flail is the weapon of the servants of Mars. The nuns use it to separate the bones from the flesh of their enemies, just as farmers use it to separate the straw from the grain."

Sister Vespe's voice grew louder and louder as she chanted, and with every word the holy emblem of dusk beneath her breastplate grew brighter, and her aura grew stronger.

However, this is not a word from the Holy Canon of the God of War, nor is it a prayer phrase prescribed in the Holy Canon of the Earth. Instead, it is more of a combination of the two, praising the battles advocated by the God of War and praising the joy gained from the teachings of the Earth.

It is very dangerous to change the prayers to the true God at will. Those who do so without authorization are either crazy or believers who are so fanatical that they have a new understanding of the doctrine. It must be one of the two. Now it seems that as a follower of a true god and a former god, Sister Vespe is obviously the latter.

Sister Vespe swept through the tower like a storm. All the demons and demon arrays she saw were destroyed by her using various extraordinary items. The little bit of dusk power that leaked out from the gaps in the bandages made it completely impossible for these things to regenerate.

Even though she was facing a demon with demigod status, Sister Vespe was not at a disadvantage at all and even had an overwhelming advantage.

But this is not surprising. After all, the demon hunter's promotion ceremony requires the killing of a Sequence 4 "devil", and Sister Vespe has already prepared two rituals, which means that she has killed two Sequence 5 demons alone when she was Sequence 4.

"Thank God of War for giving me the courage to move forward;"

"Thanks to the Mother God for allowing me the leisure time to rest;"

"Thanks to the God of War for strengthening my mind and keeping me from wavering;"

“Thank you Mother God for guiding me and keeping me from getting lost.”

"Praise the God of War, praise the Mother Goddess!"

Although the devil's curse was still ringing in his ears, for Vespe, those words had lost their original effect.

Originally, Sequence 4 demons no longer needed to wait for the other party to have emotional fluctuations or rising desires. They could directly use sounds, eyes, movements, etc. to make specific targets or all targets within a certain range fall into an inevitable psychedelic state, with emotions and desires rapidly expanding, which would then either detonate the mind, destroy reason, or lead to loss of control.

However, facing Sister Vespe, who, under the influence of magical items and her own deliberate guidance, all her emotions were transformed into devout faith in the Mother Goddess and the God of War, the devil's ability was not enough.

To some extent, Sister Vespe's inner world is now a direct projection of the God of War's will. The mere Sequence 4 mental interference is nothing to be afraid of.

……

However, simply killing the devil or killing the craftsman does not mean preventing the disaster.

The devil's fanatical, twisted face appeared on the wall not far in front of Sister Vesper. At the same time, in the surprised eyes of Adele and Vinata, Smith also stood up in the smoke and dust raised by the explosion. At a distance of nearly three kilometers, the devil and Smith spoke at the same time.

"It's too late... He has already arrived."

As soon as he finished speaking, the stars in the night sky suddenly dimmed, and a door made of sulfur and magma opened out of thin air, and an obsidian arm stretched out from the door.

In an instant, the emotions of all living beings within two kilometers, except for Sister Vespe and the devil in the devil's body, exploded at the same time, and their hearts stopped beating together.
