Chapter 263 The Love Story of the Snake and the Golem 2
[Blessing 5: Call of the Scourge Apostle (Limit reached)]
Rand has repeatedly trained and tested this ability.
But being able to reach this level still made Rand feel a little unreal.
Karin once again assessed Rand's abilities.
Has the ability to take over another person's body for a short period of time.
It is also possible to revive and control the dead to this extent.
In this case, it is hard not to suspect that he also knows other necromancy spells.
At least now, she probably can't beat Rand.
In addition to his strong strength, the cult leader's internal affairs ability should not be underestimated.
If this Rand truly became the Torch Church, no, became the enemy of humanity, it would definitely be a disaster.
"Go ahead." Rand didn't know what Karin, who looked a little unwell, was thinking. He was concentrating on the situation in front of him.
The giant bone snake covered in green flames hissed again and rushed towards the huge golem.
If it is a normal resurrection of the undead, generally speaking, the combat power is weaker than when it was alive.
Rand's Blessing 5 is slightly more powerful, but it can't make the undead surpass their living level.
So Rand had embedded the Scourge Orbs obtained from the Haunted Iron Mine in various parts of the giant snake's body in advance.
The golem's huge hand grasped the giant bone snake wrapped around it.
Want to tear it off.
The sound of metal friction made everyone present feel sick to their teeth.
Although they didn't understand why a bone snake with blazing green flames suddenly appeared, it seemed to be able to help them.
The giant snake coiled around the golem, and the raging flames coated the golem's magic steel armor with a layer of pale green.
Although it has lost its flesh and blood, the giant snake is still very powerful due to the power of the evil god.
Soon, the teeth-grinding sound of metal friction turned into the crackling sound of metal deforming.
However, bone snakes are not much better. After all, their bone bodies are much inferior to those made of metal.
There are some cracks now.
However, the bone snake still has the upper hand.
Rand called Ellie over and asked, "Will this thing explode?"
"Don't worry, its main core has been destroyed." Ellie had obviously observed it carefully, "Even if the remaining auxiliary energy core wants to self-destruct, it won't have much power."
Rand was relieved.
Soon the golem could no longer hold on and fell to the ground.
This was the third time the golem had fallen.
The golem on the ground was still trying to break free from the bone snake's control.
But no matter whether it was grasping or hammering, it was difficult to shake the bone snake's increasingly tight wrap.
From noon until dusk, the golem turned into a pile of twisted metal parts.
The bone snake burning with green flames has turned into an ordinary giant snake skeleton, and it is already badly damaged. I don’t know if it can be summoned next time.
But the crisis was finally resolved.
In this way, the tenth floor of the ruins can also be explored.
However, it is estimated that the road leading to the tenth floor must be rebuilt first, so that the huge golem can break through from the tenth floor to the first floor. It is estimated that the damage to the ruins will not be too small.
Also, the alchemical reagents have been used up. If I want to make the materials of this iron golem into magic steel plate armor, I probably need to kill more followers of the God of Struggle.
Rand rarely missed those psychopaths.
And now, the top priority becomes dealing with the problem of the Crimson King.
Rand now knew very well that there must be something wrong with the body of the Crimson King, but judging from his previous performance with the spear, it seemed that he was still far stronger than the ordinary top-level professionals.
At this time, it was already afternoon and time for dinner.
The adventurers, merchants and villagers at the resort who witnessed all this were asked not to discuss it.
But Rand also knew that it was impossible to completely shut it up.
But it doesn't matter. His external identity has the background of the Torch Church. The Torch Church will endorse him and just leave no evidence. As for why a bone snake defeated the iron golem, let the Torch Church come up with a reason.
As for why the Torch Church endorsed him.
The holiday villa has built a small church of the Torch Goddess. Doesn't this prove that Rand is a devout believer in the Torch Goddess?
Moreover, he has cooperated with Bishop Kahn.
I believe that as long as I talk more, the Torch Church will probably give me some face.
"Lady Saint." Rand said.
"Just call me Karin." Karin said.
"Thank you for your help. I will make a list of your compensation later." Rand tried to ease the awkward atmosphere.
The current atmosphere is very awkward, because after the crisis is resolved, the natural contradiction between the cult leader and the saint is exposed.
In particular, the solution he just used to solve the problem was to use powerful evil forces.
How is this different from robbing in front of the police? Karin nodded expressionlessly, indicating that she was willing to accept the reward.
She was not a cold person, but now she really didn't know what expression she should use to face this young cult leader with black hair and black eyes.
Seeing that Karin didn't say anything, Rand looked at Ellie beside him.
Ellie should be better at handling diplomatic issues.
"Why are you looking at me?" Ellie turned her head away. "I don't know."
She knew what Rand wanted to say, but she couldn't do anything about it as he used his evil power in front of the Holy Maiden of the Torch Church.
She can't handle this kind of diplomatic issue.
Rand looked at Lysa. Rand always thought that Lysa was very intelligent in her normal state.
Then it was discovered that Lysa was not found.
He was there just now, but now I don’t know where he is.
The atmosphere returned to awkwardness.
The only thing Rand could be thankful for was that even after seeing such a scene, the Saint Lady had no intention of taking action.
Of course, it could also be that she is too tired now and plans to take action later.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Your eyesight doesn't seem to be very good." Faced with the gradually stagnant atmosphere, Rand found a way to speak.
Karin still didn't answer. The previous javelin throwing had consumed a lot of her energy, and it was obvious that Rand was talking nonsense.
Rand continued, "I'm actually quite good at medical treatment. I might be able to cure your eyes."
“Heh.” Karin looked at the giant snake skeleton that was already full of cracks and had returned to silence. “I don’t doubt your medical ability.”
But it's hard to imagine how the medical abilities of a cult leader who is good at using evil powers would work, or what the side effects would be.
In any case, Karin couldn't give even a little trust to this seemingly normal and kind black-haired lord.
"Then do you want to go have dinner?" Rand couldn't think of any other way to start a conversation. "It's almost time for dinner now."
"Can."
Rand breathed a sigh of relief. The Saint Lady finally stopped having that incomprehensible expression.
“Do you eat teppanyaki?”
"eat."
Rand signaled his men to retrieve Karin, who was to be used as a javelin weapon.
Then he took the top executives of the hideout into the restaurant area of the holiday villa.
The "earthquake" caused by the Iron Golem caused some impact, but Rand took stability into consideration at the beginning of the design, so not many houses collapsed.
However, this incident just happened and most restaurants are closed.
There was only one exception, and that was the restaurant of the Steel Squad, the winner of the first cooking competition.
Originally they came to help deal with the Iron Golem, but after seeing that Rand had a solution, they came back to clean up the restaurant.
By the evening, it had reopened.
Rand led a large group of people into the restaurant of the Steel Squad.
There are no customers here anymore. Everyone is checking their losses in this small disaster that was contained in time, and not many people come to the restaurant to eat.
However, for the sake of quietness and as there might be a conversation later, Rand still asked for a private room to be prepared for them.
The Burning Steel Team, who originally thought they would have some free time, had to get busy again when they saw the overlord, the higher-ups of the hideout, and an unfamiliar blonde girl coming to have dinner.
"Fried meat, grilled mushrooms, juice, fish soup, toast." Rand ordered some dishes and asked Karin for her opinion.
Karin listened to Rand's explanation of the menu and ordered a vegetable salad, indicating that she didn't need anything else.
The scene became serious again.
Under normal circumstances, the top leaders of the hideout would also sit down to eat, but now, this was a meeting between the leaders of both sides, and at least except for Lisa who had run off to an unknown place, the rest of the top leaders of the hideout were all nervous.
They must be cautious in case the saint opposite Rand suddenly attacks and kills people.
On the contrary, Rand was no longer so nervous. He felt that if the Saint Lady wanted to take action, she would have done it long ago.
Now it seems that there was probably no intention to kill from the beginning.
Although Rand was curious about why this was the case.
As the atmosphere seemed serious and the higher-ups in the den nearby also looked very serious, the half-elf female mage from the Burning Steel team came over as a waitress to deliver the dishes.
She knew this blonde girl. She had worked as a publicist for a while and later opened her own agency called "Detective".
Now it seems that his status is not ordinary, and he is qualified to be on equal footing with Lord Rand.
Karin picked up a grilled mushroom with a fork, bit it with her teeth, and swallowed it.
When it comes to etiquette and graceful manners, Ellie is miles ahead of Karin.
But Karin's most ordinary dining method still made Rand feel pleasing to the eye.
Although Rand was embarrassed to keep staring at her, he was just curious about how Karin could accurately pick up the mushrooms on the plate with a fork even though she had no vision.
Rand signaled the higher-ups in the hideout to be careful to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.
Rand lowered his voice slightly and started talking about business: "May I ask why you are here?"
"Study." Karin said bluntly.
Rand frowned in confusion.
"I admire your ability to govern very much and would like to communicate and learn here." Karin did not hide her purpose.
