Eileen nodded and quickly followed Amelia away.

"Should we avoid Rex?" Eileen asked.

Although she is usually quiet and doesn't like to think, she can still make some judgments and guessed that Rex would most likely come over.

It's not hard to guess that if Rex isn't here, he must have gone back, and since he couldn't find them after going back, it's obvious that he'll come back again.

“No, let’s go meet them.” Amelia’s eyes gleamed. “Now that we can draw power from the nine gods, the destructive power we can unleash under their blessings is already astonishing. I refuse to believe that such power can’t defeat Rex!”

I had been avoiding Rex before because I knew he was very powerful, possessing strength beyond reason.

However, with the blessing of the gods, Amelia felt that she could even deal with Rex.

After all, the only gods they haven't yet acquired are the Crimson Moon, the Pure White Wings, and the Mysterious Book.

Rex is powerful, but he shouldn't need to collect all the gods to defeat him; he should have enough now.

If we can kill Rex, then many things will be much easier to handle.

"I understand." Eileen had no objections, but simply gripped the War God's Sword tightly in her hand.

But then she handed the Sword of War to Amelia.

Amelia took the Sword of War and flew away with Eileen.

They flew out of the City of Nature and headed straight for the Church of Heaven's experimental platform. Before long, they saw a holy light spreading from the distance.

It's Rex!

Rex, bathed in holy white light, flew over swiftly.

When Amelia and Eileen saw Rex, Rex also saw the two of them, and his flight immediately stopped.

He looked like an ordinary old man with a long white beard, wearing a white priest's robe, holding a platinum scepter, and with a pair of pure white wings on his back.

He may seem ordinary, but he possesses the power and strength to oversee the entire continent.

He is Pope Rex!

"It's you two?" Rex's expression shifted slightly when he saw Amelia and Eileen. "Looks like I'm late."

He knew that seeing Amelia and Irene here meant that Seviara was finished.

To his surprise, Amelia and Irene did not leave after they finished, but instead came toward him. He knew that the two of them were coming for him, but why were they so confident?

While Rex was puzzled, a projection of the bard's bow appeared in Amelia's hand.

She didn't want to waste any more words with Rex. Things had already reached such a critical moment, so of course she had to do everything she could to get rid of Rex first.

Blessed by the gods!

Amelia drew her bow, and at the same time, one after another, gods appeared behind her.

"This is……"

When Rex saw so many gods appear, even his pupils contracted slightly. He never expected that so many gods would appear in Amelia's hands. When did she collect them?

Dwarves, goblins, mermaids... none of the races reported to him that they had lost their god?

A series of thoughts flashed through Rex's mind, making him extremely angry and dissatisfied.

But then he had to focus his attention on what was in front of him.

Because Amelia was truly decisive and efficient, after casting the blessing of the gods, she condensed a nine-colored arrow, the power of which far exceeded the attack that had previously killed the Elf Queen Severa.

"Whoosh!"

Without much explanation, the nine-colored arrows pierced through the air and arrived without making a huge fuss, but their speed was astonishing.

Rex also sensed an intense sense of danger approaching in that instant, a feeling that shocked and disbelieved him.

Chapter 493 Slaying the Pope

Why is Amelia able to unleash such terrifying attacks?

Rex didn't understand, but his instincts told him that he couldn't take Amelia's attack head-on; he had to dodge it.

Behind Rex, the pure white wings were already attached. As the pure white wings vibrated, they propelled Rex to move rapidly, creating a dazzling phantom in the void and instantly moving him far away from his original position.

'With my pure white wings, my speed is undoubtedly astonishing; it could even be said to be the fastest in the world. No one can catch me.'

A thought flashed through Rex's mind.

Just when he thought this speed would leave all attacks in the dust, he suddenly realized that the nine-colored arrows were still approaching him.

How could that be?

Rex stared wide-eyed at the nine-colored arrow.

The nine-colored arrow was incredibly fast. Even though it used its pure white wings to display light-like speed, the distance was still closed.

'No, this isn't about movement speed; it's something else entirely.'

As Rex watched the nine-colored arrows draw ever closer, he gradually understood what was happening.

This is a lock-on attack. No matter how you defend against it or how fast you dodge it, the attack will hit the target accurately after a certain period of time—it's clearly a sure-fire shot!

Having suddenly realized the effect of the arrow, Rex stopped.

He didn't know why Amelia possessed such a strange and terrifying attack method; it was clearly not an ability that the Faith Bard's Bow could wield. However, he knew that there was only one way to block this arrow: to be shot but not killed.

"I am the light."

As Rex spoke, he transformed into a ball of white light.

The next instant, the nine-colored arrow arrived and pierced into the white ball of light.

"It...didn't work?"

The light gradually changed shape, transforming back into Rex's appearance.

His eyes widened as he looked up, the nine-colored arrow already piercing his brow.

There was no pain, only the lingering scent of death.

Rex gave Amelia and Eileen a deep look, and then his head collapsed into points of light. This collapse spread rapidly along his body, shattering him into countless points of light in a short time.

"died?"

Amelia watched this scene with some surprise.

Is Rex really dead?

The Pope of the Church of Heaven, the strongest man on the continent, actually died by his own hand.

Things progressed so easily that even Amelia could hardly believe it.

Is Rex really dead?

I thought Rex was the big boss. If he's gone like this, then he definitely isn't.

[Amelia is awesome! She truly lives up to her name! (Sound of excitement)]

[Pure white wings have fallen. Pick them up, and the blessings of the gods will make you even stronger.]

A barrage of comments appeared.

The audience was also somewhat surprised by what they saw, probably because they felt that Rex had died too easily.

In the original storyline, Rex was the one who had the last laugh, and the image of him as the main villain is deeply ingrained in people's minds.

Amelia felt a pang of sadness, but regardless, Rex had indeed died before her eyes, as long as it wasn't a dream.

She flew over quickly and caught the pure white wings that fell after Rex died.

Looking at the pair of crystal-clear wings in her hands, Amelia began to use the blessing of the gods to shrink them, successfully turning the pure white wings into the size of a fingernail.

"It seems we can control it, so let's keep it for now."

Amelia put the pure white wings into her pocket.

The other gods also shrank and were then put into the pocket.

"I never thought Rex would die like this. As expected of Leah."

Eileen was also somewhat moved at this moment.

Amelia smiled sheepishly and said, "It's thanks to the gods that I was able to kill Rex... Well, let's not talk about that. Now that Rex is dead, let's go to the experimental table. There are still a lot of things to take care of there."

Eileen nodded.

The two immediately set off, flying rapidly towards the experimental platform.

==========

Deep underground in the central part of the continent.

This is one of the Church of Heaven's secret outposts around the world. Similar secret outposts are never made public, and many members of the Church of Heaven are unaware of their existence. They have extremely special functions.

At this moment, the secret stronghold deep underground is unknown even to the cardinals, because it is a stronghold set up by Rex personally.

The interior of the church-style building is structured like a laboratory, with a huge cylindrical incubation chamber on display.

It's always been very peaceful here, so peaceful that it seems like this peace will last forever unless something unexpected happens.

But at that moment, a heavy blow came from the incubation chamber, followed by a dense network of cracks appearing on it.

"Crack!"

The incubation chamber shattered, and the special transparent liquid inside flowed out along the cracks, spreading in small pieces on the ground.

"Oh!"

With another heavy blow, an old hand shattered the incubation chamber and emerged from it.

Following closely behind this hand was an old head.

Then, the person emerged from the incubation chamber.

He had white hair, a wrinkled face, and a long beard—he was Rex.

"I actually died."

Rex raised his hands and looked at them, his eyes filled with surprise.

He never imagined that he would die.
