Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 262 Victory

Afatak is dead.

His body was soaked in the blood that was still gushing out of him, and his face still had that hideous, intimidating expression.

But there was no doubt that he was dead - his pupils were completely dilated, his breathing had stopped, and there were no signs of life at all.

Even Luo Xiu's panel detection of him has proved this.

This was the end of the strongest invader who had invaded the church.

There were only two "fang heads" left among the enemies that were not blocked by the golden barrier but were surrounded by the priests.

They were still fighting desperately, and the "Spellcaster" was constantly blasting out waves of cursed light from the scarlet staff in his hand, sometimes blasting towards the "Golden Pegasus" in the sky, and sometimes blasting towards the priests who surrounded him;

The "Alchemist" has summoned three puppets and is fighting with the "Holy Flame Wolf King" Fenrir. The battle between the two sides is difficult to resolve.

When Afatak was killed, it immediately had a significant impact on both sides of the battle.

The church's clergy were eager to fight, and the destructive power contained in the holy magic light balls that bombarded the two "Fang Heads" in the encirclement had become even stronger.

At the same time, Maiyev had also recovered some of his spirituality. He controlled the "mountain giant" puppet that was more than ten meters tall and rushed towards the enemy's position.

Every time the giant puppet took a step, the ground shook violently. Its two huge rock fists were still stained with Afatak's blood, and now it had locked onto the fangs of the "Spellcaster" and "Alchemist" as its new target.

"…Afatak is dead, Raqish."

Right behind the "Spellcaster" Fangs, the "Alchemist" Fangs, who was controlling the puppet and dealing with the "Holy Flame Wolf King", suddenly said in a low voice:
"According to the mission given to us by Master Koros before we took action, the 'sinner' Afatak has received a 'meaningful death'."

"We have roughly figured out the strength of this church, Lacish. So, it's time to retreat."

"..."

When the "alchemist" finished saying this, without waiting for the sorcerer to reply, he took out a copper whistle with mottled rust from his bracelet.

Then he raised his hand, put the mouthpiece of the whistle into his mouth, and blew it hard.

——Beep! The sharp, dry whistle seemed to penetrate the clouds and reach the ears of everyone present clearly.

……

When he heard the unusual noise, Luo Xiu looked towards the source of the noise.

The leader of the "Alchemists" - the "Great Alchemist" Sodler, blew a whistle with strange runes painted on it.

And just as he blew the whistle, a circular fog gate suddenly appeared behind him.

In the center of the fog gate flowed a mixture of black and white light, which could lead to an unknown destination. A moment after Sodler blew the whistle, he turned around and stepped into the fog gate.

Sodler's figure immediately disappeared behind the fog gate, leaving only a vague sentence to his colleagues:
"…End your battle as soon as possible. I will be waiting for you in Lord Baberon's tent."

"..."

Afterwards, the "Great Alchemist" Sodler eliminated all sounds.

The face of the "Spellcaster" Laqish trembled, and he seemed to curse a few words in the direction of the fog gate. The curse light gushing out of the staff in his hand then became thicker.

Now, Lacish was completely trapped in a situation where he was alone against many enemies.

The leader of the "Alchemist" retreated like this, which was somewhat beyond Luo Xiu's expectations, but he didn't feel too surprised.

Luo Xiu then turned his attention to the "Spellcaster" Laqish - he had already fought to exhaustion, and had serious injuries on his body, and could not hold on for too long.

While resisting the attacks coming from multiple directions, Lacish retreated step by step, gradually approaching the fog gate summoned by Sodler.

He was also ready to evacuate - as long as he could enter the fog gate before the last bit of his spiritual energy was exhausted, no matter how serious his injuries were, there would still be a way to heal them!

At this time, not far from Laqishi, dozens of deep cracks had appeared on the golden barrier covering the "High Priest's Residence".

The three "fang heads" inside were about to break through the barrier, and their goal seemed to be to pass through the fog gate and retreat to the base camp.

Luo Xiu had already seen through their thoughts.

While the three "Fang Heads" had not yet escaped from the barrier, Luo Xiu rushed towards Laqish's position!
Then, just before Laqish noticed his movements, Luo Xiu's figure disappeared from Laqish's eyes!

He then used the "Hunting Step" technique to instantly move in front of Lacish, and before he could react in time, he raised his hand and strangled his neck.

Luo Xiu, whose "strength" attribute crushed Laqishi, had his five fingers pierced into his flesh like iron hoops. No matter how Laqishi struggled, he could not get rid of him at all!
As Lacish watched in horror.

The High Priest of the church in front of him suddenly had wings emitting pure white light appearing behind him.

Then, at some point, Lacish suddenly lost his sense of groundedness.

He had been strangled by Luo Xiu's throat and flew high into the sky. At the same time, he saw that the light emitted by Huiyu behind Luo Xiu was becoming more and more dazzling.

When the light reached its peak, the first brilliant feather peeled off from the wing of light and shot towards Lacish!

——Boom! Boom boom boom boom!

Dozens of brilliant feathers containing the power of annihilation hit Laqish's body one after another, exploding into dozens of bright red blood flowers.

And Laqish was completely unable to resist this - he was weaker than Luo Xiu to begin with, and after a fierce battle, his spiritual power was completely exhausted.

The shield he relied on to protect himself was shattered in an instant, and he almost took all the damage from the "Light Wings Heavenly Punishment" with his physical body.

The "Spellcaster" Laqish was originally a fragile person. According to Luo Xiu's panel detection, his health value was completely reduced to zero when Huiyu had only shot about two-thirds of his target.

Death immunity was also triggered once during this period, but it was of no use.

Until all the brilliant feathers had bombarded Laqish's body, he was strangled by Luo Xiu's throat and was already a corpse full of holes.

Then, Luo Xiu let go of his hand and let Laqish's body fall freely.

——Bang! The fangs of the Curse Master hit the ground heavily and fell next to Afatak's body, becoming the second casualty in this invasion.

Luo Xiu also landed on the ground, and the moment he really stepped on the solid ground, he heard a crisp shattering sound in his ears.

That was the "Golden Barrier" being broken!

The golden barrier covering the high priest's residence suddenly emitted an extremely dazzling light and then shattered like a glass window!

The three fang heads of [Lost] and [Nothingness] who were trapped inside took the opportunity to break free and flew towards the fog gate in the center.

Luo Xiu called Pegasus, jumped on the back of Pegasus, and chased in the direction where the three fanged beasts fled.

At the same time, flying stars condensed around Pegasus and shot towards the enemies in front like a meteor shower.

In an instant, the battle had turned into an obvious chase. Fenrir, who was closest to the "fog gate", had blocked the circular door with his huge body, preventing the intruders from escaping.

And it was soon the focus of fire - countless strange streams of light came from several directions around it, arcing towards Fenrir and were about to hit its body.

Fenrir then roared towards the sky, and the aura emanating from his body suddenly rose sharply. Circles of burning flaming rings quickly swept and spread around.

——Boom! Boom boom boom boom! Fenrir's ring of fire collided with the streams of fire that were attacking it, and colorful, brilliant sparks burst out in the air.

"... Kill that beast first!" A Lost Fang-head shouted, "Otherwise, we will all die here!"

While the [Lost] fang leader was shouting, the flying star of the 'Golden Pegasus', which was shooting from behind, had already caught up with him.

——Boom! Boom boom boom! Several flying stars exploded on the body of the beast-head, blasting his clothes on his back into pieces, revealing a large area of ​​horrifying scars with torn skin and flesh.

The "fire" spell he was originally concentrating on was suddenly interrupted by the hasty attack.

The other two fang chiefs quickly passed by the [Lost] fang chief, leaving him far behind.

Then, a dazzling golden light flashed in the corner of his eye, accompanied by a strong tingling and numbness in his body.

Golden light wrapped in thunder descended from the sky and hit the top of the beast's head heavily the next moment.

——"Thunder of Judgment"! Luo Xiu raised his hand and threw out this sacred spell, successfully nailing a fang head in place.

And Luo Xiu, riding on Pegasus, had arrived behind the fang-headed monster in the blink of an eye. The staff in his right hand then burst out a slender sword blade containing powerful annihilation force, and slashed quickly towards the fang-headed monster's neck.

——Shua! The golden light and blood light blended and splashed, and the head of the [Lost] fang-headed monster rolled to the ground, while the headless corpse twitched for a while and then became motionless.

The third "獠首" was beheaded! So far, half of the enemies who invaded the church have been killed by Luo Xiu himself!

But he did not stop punishing the enemy, but continued to chase the two fang leaders with the fate of [Lost] and [Nothingness] not far ahead.

"——Howl!" After a roar, Pegasus ran towards the last two enemies as fast as thunder.

Luo Xiu, who was riding on Pegasus's back, had also prepared the sacred technique that he was about to release.

But right in front of him, the fang-head of [Nothingness] suddenly stopped and stopped running.

At the same time, Fenrir, who was originally guarding in front of the fog gate, seemed to be attracted by something and suddenly pounced to the other side.

That is the ability of the [Nothingness] extraordinary being!

The "Fang Head" in front of Luo Xiu, his profession in [Nothingness] is "Great Illusionist". He created the illusion scene that confuses Fenrir and also confuses himself!

Luo Xiu had already realized it, and he quickly converted the holy art that was about to be condensed to purify himself.

After the "purification" took effect, he was no longer confused by the "illusion" and the scene before his eyes returned to normal.

The "illusion" figure that remained in the original place gradually dissipated like windy dust, and the real figure of the [Void] Fangshou appeared at the edge of the fog gate.

Then, he stepped into the fog gate, and his figure was immediately wrapped in wisps of mist and disappeared from everyone's sight.

The last [Lost] Fang Head was only about two body lengths away from the fog gate.

He was following in the footsteps of the [Void] Fang Head and was about to enter the fog gate and escape from this life-and-death battlefield.

But he was apparently not that lucky.

Fenrir, the "Holy Flame Wolf King" who had been freed from the illusion, had changed direction and pounced towards the fog gate again.

Before the [Lost] Fangs Head stepped into the fog gate, Fenrir's huge body had already blocked the Fangs Head's path, and opened his bloody mouth, spewing a column of fire with golden holy flames towards the Fangs Head!
——Boom! This last fang head was immediately engulfed by the light of the holy flame, and the fog gate that was originally so close to him was once again far away from him.

From three body lengths away to about seven body lengths away, he had to bypass the giant wolf in front of him... The [Lost] fangs head took a breath of cold air, and a feeling of despair surged out from the depths of his heart.

After stabilizing his body, he was about to take a step forward, but suddenly found that he could not move.

——Swish! A golden spear of light pierced through him from bottom to top.

At the same time, strands of fine, golden silk threads had tightly bound his legs, making it impossible for him to move at all.

Before he could escape again, Luo Xiu used the sacred technique of "Holy Temple of Imprisonment of Evil" to firmly control him, cutting off his last hope of escape.

Then, this last [Lost] Fang Head, he suddenly felt a strong wind pressure coming from above his head.

He looked up and saw a huge rock fist approaching him rapidly.

--boom! ! !

The "mountain giant"'s heavy fist fell from the sky and hammered him into the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the second and third punches followed, continuously bombarding the fragile body of the [Lost] Fang Head.

Just as Luo Xiu detected him on the panel, when the "Mountain Giant" threw the sixth punch, his health was almost at the bottom and he had fallen to the brink of "death".

Just when the "Mountain Giant" was about to throw the seventh punch, Luo Xiu stopped Maiyav and personally delivered the last punch at the [Lost] Fang Head embedded in the ground.

——“A Punch of Mercy”!
This punch, which had both extremely strong destructive power and weak healing power, completely knocked the [Lost] Fangshead to the brink of death, and left him with only 1 point of health.

This is the last enemy, and there will be no more intense battles for the time being. Luo Xiu’s goal for the last “fang head” in front of him is no longer to “kill” but to “capture it alive”.

The Lost Fang Head took a solid punch from Luo Xiu and fainted instantly, no longer having any ability to resist.

Luo Xiu then cast a weak "healing spell" on him, dug him out of the pit on the ground, and threw him to the surrounding priests.

The clergy, led by Anthony, immediately rushed forward and locked up the [Lost] fang-head with shackles that had the effect of sealing spirituality, and then tied him up with hemp ropes and steel chains, with eight circles inside and eight circles outside, completely eliminating the possibility of him breaking free after waking up.

……

It was not until the priests controlled the last of the [Lost] Fangs that Luo Xiu called back Pegasus and Fenrir and came before the priests:
"It's all over, my fellow soldiers."

The battle is over and there will be no new threats tonight at least.

"Executioner" Koros is a cautious man. He will not act rashly himself. After this battle, he will re-evaluate the threat posed to him by the church's "high priest".

At this time, Luo Xiu's face was a little pale, and the high priest robe on his body was covered with dust.

But a relieved smile still appeared on his face, and he said to his clergy in a calm and gentle voice:

"We have once again crushed the enemy's plot, and victory still belongs to us."

"I am truly proud of you and 'Sukhvad' will also praise our Sunnah."
