Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 326 "Hidden Elder" Gattuso, double kill!

"The Shining Knight" Gulanbato, he witnessed the entire process of "Hidden Elder" Elius from birth to death at a very close distance.

The powerful fighting power displayed by Luo Xiu once again far exceeded his expectations, which forced Gulanbato to be more convinced of what Archbishop Sid said -

The bishop of Red Maple City, "Roxiu Carlos", indeed has extremely impressive strength!
Gulanbato thought to himself that even if he had been promoted to the fifth level of the [Glorious] Fate Path for more than ten years, if he and Luo Xiu were to become enemies, he would not be his opponent...

That Luo Xiu Carlos, the strength he showed in [Glory], was almost equal to the most peak batch of "Fivefold Fate" saints. Perhaps only the second bishop or the chief saint deacon could compare with him...

As Gulanbato was thinking wildly, he watched Luo Xiu kill Elius swiftly and cleanly, then he rushed towards another battlefield without looking back, towards the last "hidden elder" Gattuso on the battlefield.

Gulanbaator didn't think any more. He swung his holy sword, turned around and joined the new battle.

……

--boom! ! !

The four "natural disaster" puppets bombarded the "Glorious Knight" Evans wildly, and the battlefield suddenly became more and more devastated, as if it had been carved by knives and axes.

Unlike Gulanbaator, Evans, the "Shining Knight", is a paladin majoring in Holy Protection. His offensiveness is not very strong, but his individual defense is extremely strong.

Evans had been controlling the puppets and bombarding him for no less than ten rounds, which finally caused the shield around Evans to become shaky and show signs of breaking.

Although Evans was suppressed, in Gattuso's view, the balance of victory was tilting increasingly towards the other side.

——That “Shining Knight”… He is clearly just one person!

Evans alone had troubled Gattuso for such a long time, which made Gattuso unable to take care of the battle situation on Arius' side, let alone support him!
Gattuso was extremely anxious, but Evans was like a dog-skin plaster and could not be shaken off. Gattuso could only glare at him and attack the Shining Knight with a shield in front of him. There was no other way.

And during the fierce battle with Evans, Gattuso watched helplessly as the young bishop of unknown identity continued to expand the sacred domain, and then used some unknown means to return Arius' attacks twice, and seriously injured Arius in an instant!

——Not good! Gattuso's heart was filled with alarm.

He originally wanted to force himself out of Evans' entanglement and go to rescue Elius, but the aura around Evans surged again. He summoned dozens of golden barriers and actually sealed Gattuso in the "prison"!
In a short period of time, Gattuso was unable to break out. Even though he promptly controlled the puppets to change their targets and wanted them to block the knife for Elius, it was too late.

——Boom! Gattuso, the "Hidden Elder", watched helplessly as the angel on the field flashed in front of Elius, and the holy sword in his hand pierced through the back of Elius's head from the mouth, completely cutting off Elius's possibility of counterattack.

Then, almost at the same time - the Bishop of [Glory] also appeared in front of Elius. He drew a cross with the staff in his hand, and gave Elius the final blow amidst the golden light and roar!
"Elius!"

Gattuso roared, his eyes almost bursting as he looked at the scene in front of him, and he felt his blood boiling.

He could no longer sense the breath of Elius, and the puppet he controlled also lost its function.

There is no doubt that Arius is dead -

Gattuso has already understood this fact.

And in Gattuso's eyes, after killing Arius, the bishop rushed towards him without hesitation!

He was extremely fast, and by the time Gattuso reacted, the bishop had already rushed one-third of the way!
Who is he? !

Such doubts, accompanied by a strong sense of crisis, arose in Gattuso's heart.

He began to search his memory frantically. He knew very well that he did not know him, and he should not be any "bishop" of the Songyuan City Church.

However, some of the abilities possessed by the bishop in front of him gave Gattuso a strong sense of déjà vu!
The sacred beasts he summoned were a giant wolf, a golden Pegasus, and a raven that was like a sea of ​​fire...

Suddenly, Gattuso suddenly remembered!

The "Hidden Elder" Baberon had indeed told them about a bishop who had contracted so many holy beasts at the same time!
That is the bishop of the Red Maple City Church, Ross Carlos!

"Why is the bishop of Red Maple City here?!"

Once he understood the logic behind this, Gattuso was shocked and angry.

He originally thought that the saints of the Songyuan City Church attacked the factory because they were accidentally exposed, and the general church had been planning this for a long time!

But if that bishop is from Red Maple City, then the blame will be completely put on Baberon!

He was probably being followed the entire time...but Baberon! Baberon was totally unaware of this!
Gattuso's anger towards Baberon suddenly reached its peak.

He is ashamed to be [intellectual], ashamed to be a "hidden elder"!
If he can survive this major crisis, Gattuso has decided that he must appeal to the "Hidden Sage" to prove Barberon's guilt. The exposure of the factory and the death of Arius must be blamed on Barberon.

But the current situation does not allow Gattuso to think more. The most urgent task is to survive from the hands of the three [Glory] saints.

As a result, Gattuso's figure began to retreat backwards. At the same time, he almost stimulated all of his spiritual power and completely took over the puppet that was originally controlled by Elius!

At the same time, he raised his hand and wiped it in the air, and a screen with flashing dark red light appeared in front of him.

There were complex circuits that were either dark black or dark red constantly flowing on it. Gattuso quickly operated the spiritual operation of the circuits, adjusting the power of all the puppets he controlled to the maximum!
——Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

In an instant, a harsh metallic humming sound came from the bottom of the entire factory.

Pungent smoke began to emerge from all the movable puppets, and the originally azure blue color of their energy surfaces quickly turned to scarlet. Gattuso had activated their violent mode!
As for Gattuso himself - after he fully activated the puppet's violence, his eyes quickly turned red, and blood flowed out from his eye sockets, nostrils, ears and corners of his mouth!
He is suffering from the "overload" of the puppets!

Even though his body felt like it was burning, Gattuso knew that the situation had become so bad that this was the price he had to pay if he wanted to have a one in ten thousand chance of a comeback.

……

While rushing towards the "Hidden Elder" Gattuso, Luo Xiu suddenly felt that Gattuso's spirituality became chaotic and violent at a certain moment!
Along with a sharp and piercing buzzing sound, all the puppets that were still operating at the core of the factory burst into dazzling scarlet light!

Just like Elius before, Gattuso played his cards desperately!

Luo Xiu clearly felt that the oppressive feeling coming from the "Hidden Elder" Gattuso had become different.

Gattuso's intention was also quite clear. He was not prepared to engage in battle with any of the Shining Saints present. Instead, he rushed towards the secret door on his own, controlling all the puppets at the same time, blocking Luo Xiu and the other two Shining Knights.

Gattuso, the "hidden elder", wants to escape.

Luo Xiu was quite clear about his intentions.

But it was too early for Gattuso to choose to cut off his tail and escape. Even after fighting with Evans for a long time, Gattuso was still in his prime!
"Pegasus!" Luo Xiu summoned the golden Pegasus and quickly mounted it, rushing towards Gattuso. One puppet after another rushed towards him with a buzzing sound, and the scarlet fire stream repeatedly washed over the ground on Luo Xiu's path, buying time for Gattuso to escape.

The distance between Pegasus and Gattuso was getting closer and closer, but because of the puppets' fearless charge, the distance was widened again and again. Gattuso's back gradually shrank and blurred in Luo Xiu's field of vision.

Gattuso was not like Arius. When Arius was still alive, he still had the thought of resistance in his heart... But Gattuso was certain of defeat, and he was determined to escape. Even Luo Xiu found it a bit tricky.

But Luo Xiu was not too worried, because this was also within the prior consideration. He and the saints of Songyuan City Church had also reserved a backup plan for this.

With the blessing of speed, Luo Xiu, riding on the "Golden Pegasus", always kept a certain distance from Gattuso even though there were constant obstacles created by puppets.

At the same time, he was praying for holy spells on horseback. He had prepared several holy spells, waiting to cast them instantly when Gattuso was within the attack range!

……

Gattuso, who was enduring severe pain in his body, tried his best to maintain the violent forms of all the puppets, but he still couldn't completely get rid of the pursuit behind him!

That bishop...that Ross Carlos! He was like a leech, and ever since he rode on that golden Pegasus, he could never be shaken off!
Gattuso became more and more frantic. He kept stimulating his spirituality, allowing more and more puppets to intercept Luo Xiu, and the secret door for escape was getting closer and closer in his sight!

It's almost there...it's almost there!
As long as you enter that secret door, you can then activate the highest level secret mechanism!

At that time, a series of extremely hard hidden cast doors will fall down, completely blocking the pursuit path of this group of [Glorious] saints... and only then will he be able to truly escape!

Gattuso kept thinking about these things in his heart, and the closer he got to the secret door, the more the corners of his mouth curled up.

——Boom!
Suddenly, a heavy roar came from above Gattuso's head.

Illusion? Gattuso thought to himself and looked up unconsciously.

There was a smooth rock wall above, and nothing else.

He then lowered his head again, ready to rush through the last stretch in one go.

But in the next moment.

——Boom! ! !
The same roar came from above his head again, and this time, Gattuso really heard it clearly, it was not an illusion!
This time the roar was clearer and closer! A strong sense of crisis suddenly emerged from Gattuso's heart.

But before he could figure out the source of the roar, the roar broke out again like thunder!
——Boom! ! ! ! !
An extremely clear roar exploded in Gattuso's ears.

As the field of vision was filled with flashing light, several bright beams of light suddenly emerged around Gattuso's position, completely covering Gattuso's figure!

Gattuso felt as if he was in a raging fire, being burned unreservedly from the inside out!

That is the "holy art"! It is undoubtedly the "holy art"!
But the source of that sacred art was not Luo Xiu, nor was it Gulanbato or Evans!
That is the sacred art of "Qihui"!

——That comes from “The Illuminator” Richester!
……

"It seems that we are not late."

As the dazzling light surged, Luo Xiu heard a familiar voice——

"The Illuminator" Richester, and two "Glorious Knights" Adele and Had, chiseled a big hole in the dome from top to bottom and "fell from the sky"!
They have wiped out all the "forbidden experimental subjects" on the previous level, and following the spiritual flow belonging to Gattuso in the "spiritual vision", they set up an ambush in a further position and blasted open the rock layer at the critical moment!
This was also one of the established tactics, and it indeed caught Gattuso off guard - the "Bishop of Enlightenment" Richester, who was responsible for assisting, cast powerful weakening and control spells on Gattuso, with very good results!
Gattuso was forced to stop his escape, and Luo Xiu, who was chasing him from behind, soon caught up with him and simultaneously activated several sacred arts that he had prepared long ago.

First up is the “Holy Temple of Imprisonment”!
The golden spear pierced from bottom to top, completely piercing Gattuso from back to chest!
That completely blocked Gattuso's escape, so that even though the secret door was within reach, he could not move forward at all!
As Gattuso looked on with horror, Luo Xiu and four other "Glorious Knights" had approached him, each swinging their holy swords at him, with the blades emitting dazzling golden light!
——Boom! Boom boom boom boom!

Four shining holy swords kept falling heavily towards Gattuso's position. Luo Xiu heard Gattuso's shrill wails drowned in the holy light, and the sound of his shield constantly shattering.

This wave is a just fight of six against one... Luo Xiu looked at the "Hidden Elder" Gattuso in the center of the fight with some sympathy, while keeping a close eye on him through the panel.

His shield value was quickly exhausted, and even though he controlled the puppet to try to resist the damage, it was of no avail.

Soon, Gattuso's own health began to decrease and quickly fell to a low point.

It was not until his health dropped below half that Luo Xiu raised his arm and swung out several sacred arts in succession.

"Golden Star Explosion"! "Holy Annihilation Sword Formation"! "Glorious Annihilation Holy Cross"!
Seeing this, the surrounding Shining Knights jumped out of Luo Xiu's attack range and guarded around Gattuso.

--boom! boom! boom!

The golden light exploded above his head, and three sacred arts containing terrifying spiritual annihilation powers hit Gattuso solidly!
Gattuso's body was suddenly riddled with holes, and his blood volume dropped below the death line!

Afterwards, Luo Xiu flew high into the sky, and a pair of golden holy wings appeared behind him!

——"The divine punishment of the light wings"!
Dozens of annihilation feathers suddenly shot towards Gattuso from Luo Xiu's back!
"I have not……"

——Boom! Boom boom boom boom!

Gattuso, lying exhausted in the crack of the ground, seemed to want to say something, but his voice was quickly drowned out by Huiyu's annihilation explosion.

The explosion lasted for nearly twenty seconds, and before the last feather exploded, new content appeared on Luo Xiu's panel -

[You have killed "Hidden Elder" Gattuso (lv.49)]

【…】

This is the last enemy...

"..."

But is it really over?

Luo Xiu thought to himself that it was a little unreal, and he slowly landed back on the ground.

He looked at the "Hidden Elder" Gattuso - the saint of [Intellect] who was alive and kicking before, was now embedded in a crack in the ground, a bloody mess.

It was a completely cold corpse.
