"Great Aka, please establish a call link with Sister Vanya for me..."
"This is... Miss Dorothea!"
"Shh... Speak softly. You are still in danger now. In someone else's base, who knows where there are spies..."
Dorothy's voice continued to ring in Vanya's mind, and Vanya was startled after hearing it. Later, Vanya realized that it was Dorothy who was speaking to her through the connection of Akka. After looking around, she spoke silently in her heart.
"Ah... Miss Dorothea, when can I get out of here now? From what the werewolf said before, it seemed like he was going to let me go..."
"Yes... He does have this idea now, but judging from the current situation, you don't need him to let it go. Someone will come to rescue you soon."
Dorothy spoke to Vanya in this way through the information channel. Vanya was slightly stunned after hearing this, and then spoke out of curiosity.
"The one who saved me? Was it the church? Or the Security Bureau?"
"Both. These guys intercepted the Security Bureau's car and arrested people from the church... They offended both sides. Now they are almost at the door."
Dorothy continued her instructions in a serious voice.
"Those guys will be here soon. This villa may be in chaos soon. When Smith realizes he's been attacked, he will definitely suspect you first. So you must protect yourself. If you encounter danger, remember to run to the right after opening the door. Do you understand?"
"Oh, it's all white!"
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Vanya nodded seriously and muttered to herself, then sat quietly in her seat in the room, waiting anxiously.
…
Far away from the Smith Villa, on a small hill in a dense forest, Dorothy's carriage continued to move forward. On the carriage, Dorothy, with a frown on her face, was monitoring the overall situation. At this moment, there was a hint of worry between her brows.
"Those guys from the Security Bureau and the Church need to hurry up, otherwise my 'cup' will run out..."
Observing the information from afar, Dorothy thought to herself that today was the first time she used the living puppet so frequently and for such a long time. The living puppet consumed the "cup" severely, and she could no longer afford it.
Unlike normal corpse puppets, a living puppet consumes a little "cup" each time it is activated. A little "cup" must be consumed every twenty minutes to maintain it. Dorothy's frequent use of the living puppet to manipulate Vanya and Davic has already caused a great consumption of her "cup". Although Dorothy used methods such as stopping the manipulation on the way to greatly shorten the manipulation time, this still made Dorothy's "cup", which was not rich to begin with, begin to run out.
After helping Adele find her teacher last time, Dorothy's "Cup" was reduced to only 9 points. When she helped Greg on the train, she used the Breath-Seeking Talisman, the Life-Eating Technique, and the Living Puppet, which consumed another 4 points of "Cup". Dorothy only had 5 points of "Cup" left. Today's series of living puppet manipulations had almost used up all 5 points, but fortunately she had some spare ones.
In fact, Dorothy wanted Davic to be truly dead now, and instead control the corpse puppet, which would save a lot of spiritual energy. However, he never had this opportunity before. He was either being watched by the hunters or by Smith's men, and he never had the chance to do it.
With a serious look, Dorothy took out her magic box, and then took out two pieces of dried meat. These two pieces of dried meat were given to her by Adele last time to activate the Breath-Seeking Seal. Since Dorothy was used to using her own spirituality to activate it, she kept them.
Without thinking too much, Dorothy ate the two pieces of jerky. Each piece of jerky had 2 "cups". Dorothy, who had obtained 4 "cups" of supply, was now able to continue using her abilities.
"Huh... I really lost a lot of money this time... I think the harvest will be satisfactory..."
After chewing and swallowing the jerky, Dorothy let out a long sigh and murmured.
…
The broad Yueliu River continued to flow forward with a rustling sound in the dark night. The villa where Smith lived still stood quietly on the riverside mudflats. In the yard of the villa, security guards were keeping watch on the surroundings.
At this moment, above the villa, there were two figures floating there, and they both ignored the buildings in the darkness below.
One of them was wearing a hunter's black windbreaker uniform, but without a mask. This was Edmund, one of the garrison captains of the Tivian Security Bureau. The other was wearing a white robe and armor, with a helmet on his head. The armor was engraved with the sun symbol of the Radiant Church, and he looked like a knight.
The strong wind from the Wind Priest lifted the two people up in the air, making their robes whistle and flutter. Edmund looked at the villa below and spoke.
"Father Anrethius, according to the target, the wolf cubs' lair is down there. We have found our target."
"We're finally here. I can't wait to purify these hungry wolves. Let's get started!" said the church knight named Andreus, with a loud sound coming from his can-like helmet.
"Don't worry, Father Anrethius. Most of our people are still on the ground and have just completed the encirclement. My people will use the wind to gather their breath and then sneak in to conduct reconnaissance. After finding out the situation, we will launch a surprise attack."
Edmund said this, and the knight next to him snorted in disdainful response.
"Do you still want to go in and investigate? Humph, under the shining light of the Lord, not a single evil spirit will be able to hide!"
As he declared, the knight named Anrethius took out something and raised it above his head. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a withered human hand.
“The glory of the Lord becomes a consuming fire, burning sin and seeing through evil!”
Along with the knight's declaration, the dry hand in his hand suddenly burst into flames, and the raging fire wrapped around the dry hand. In the firelight, the eyes in the shadow of the knight's helmet flashed a faint light. Edmund couldn't help but speak in amazement after seeing the torch-like dry hand.
“This is… the Church’s Hand of Glory?!”
Holding the torch transformed from his withered hand, the knight in the sky seemed to be able to see through everything. After glancing at the villa below several times, he suddenly laughed.
"Haha! You found the biggest one! Are you afraid to hide? Are you afraid that your 'shadow' will be drained and affect the battle? I also want to judge you with my own hands!"
As he spoke, the church knight named Brother Anlei extinguished the Hand of Glory in his hand, put it away, and drew his sword.
"The time for purification has come, Holy Son, please light the Holy Flame for me!"
Praying, the knight raised his sword high, and then a raging flame burned on his sword, which was countless times hotter than the flame on the Hand of Glory before. Looking at the knight's action, Edmund spoke in some surprise.
"Father Anresius! What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? You think you are purifying sin! I'm leaving first! Captain Edmund!"
As he spoke, Anrethius took out a talisman and stuck it on his armor, injecting it with the spirituality of "stone", which instantly doubled its mass. Anrethius's weight suddenly broke through the limit of Edmund Feng's bearing, and then he fell down.
Just like that, in front of Edmund and countless pairs of astonished eyes, the knight holding the flaming sword turned into a flaming meteor falling from the sky, dragging a long flame tail, and smashed straight towards Smith's villa.
“Welcome to the purification!!”
