The Yalong man simply let out a low, ambiguous roar from the depths of his throat as a greeting.
"The viewing place is very simple, I hope you two can forgive me."
Warwick Bennett's voice continued, his golden eyes lingering for a moment on the scroll in Kyle's hand. "It seems the invitation has arrived. Your punctuality in attending the appointment demonstrates your unwavering desire for truth. Very commendable."
Although the name of the Asian dragon sounded familiar, Kyle couldn't remember his true identity for a moment.
Kyle suppressed the rage and restlessness of the Holy Light within him, his eyes icy cold. "Truth? Sacrificing the souls and flesh of innocents to awaken a long-rotted corpse, is this your 'truth'?"
"Werewolves? Argonians?" Ruby's voice sounded even more agitated than Kyle's. Her flail pendant was already spinning in her palm, a bright white holy light poised to burst forth. "You scum who blasphemed the Holy Light and betrayed your race, are you worthy enough to speak of the truth? A bunch of filthy heretics!"
Monsters like werewolves and dragonmen, whether among humans or orcs, have only one possibility for their existence.
That is to abandon the most original bloodline of one's own race, devote oneself to heretical gods, and transform into monsters to gain greater power.
Not only does the Church of Holy Light regard them as heretics, but any humanoid race on the Holy Dragon Continent will regard them as heretics.
After all, it’s not just humans who can be transformed; dwarves, orcs, and even elves can be transformed into this kind of monster.
The werewolf Warwick did not get angry, but instead let out a low laugh, as if he was enjoying an amusing farce.
"Lord Ruby, your anger stems from your fear of the unknown and your narrow view of your own beliefs."
"Holy Light? It's just a tiny ray of light in the vast energy laws of the universe."
"What we at the Qizhi Society pursue is to transcend the opposition between light and darkness and integrate the ultimate cycle of life and death—that is the 'rebirth' that allows life to be sublimated."
Warwick turned his gaze towards Kyle, with a hint of subtle temptation:
"As for 'Original Record of the Advent of Holy Light'... it wasn't something discarded by the Church of Holy Light, but rather a truth that was deliberately buried."
"It records the original, most primitive form and power of Holy Light, the one closest to the origin of the world. The 'truth' it reveals is enough to overturn the rigid and decadent doctrines of the current Church of Holy Light, allowing the true path of Holy Light to return to the world."
The Argonian Spencer finally spoke, his voice as hoarse and harsh as the rubbing of bones:
"Join the Society of Enlightenment, priest. Offer your devotion and strength, and contribute to the glory of our Lord's advent. In return, you will gain the qualification to glimpse the mysteries of the Original Codex. This is your only path to the ultimate pursuit of Holy Light."
"Join you?" Kyle's voice was filled with incredible absurdity. "To be in cahoots with a bunch of demons like you who treat life as worthless and toy with souls? This is what you call a 'smooth path'? It's the greatest blasphemy against the Holy Light!"
"You guys talk so much nonsense!"
Seeing that the werewolf opposite was still chattering nonsense, Ruby completely exploded.
The anger that had been suppressed all the way, as well as the instinctive extreme disgust towards the two monsters in front of him, were completely ignited by their ridiculous and twisted logic.
"Holy Fire—Purify the World!"
Her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot!
Fast! So fast that it exceeds the limits of visual capture!
The flail pendant in her hand turned into a bright white lightning that tore through the air. With a violent will to purify all impurities, and with the power of wind and thunder, she went straight for the head of the werewolf Warwick Bennett who was bending over!
The holy flame burning on the chain ball expanded instantly, illuminating the entire interior of the tent in a blazing white!
The Yalong man's head looked very tough, so she chose to kill the werewolf first.
This attack condensed all of Ruby's strength and murderous intent, and was the pinnacle of her career as a punitive nun!
She wanted to turn this arrogant heretic into ashes in the purest wrath of the Holy Light!
The two heretic leaders actually dared to approach these two professionals favored by the Holy Light face to face.
Do you really think that you can deal with the professionals favored by Holy Light just because you are higher in rank than them?
It's simply courting death!
However--
Warwick Bennett didn't even look up.
It simply raised its right front paw, which was covered with black and white gradient hair, seemingly casually.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
The wolf claw that seemed to be rising slowly arrived at the moment when the hammer head of the Holy Flame Flail was about to touch its forehead!
A dull, heart-pounding sound of flesh colliding was heard.
"puff!"
The wolf claw, with a speed and trajectory that completely defied the laws of physics, pressed against Ruby's slender waist and abdomen as if it were teleporting!
quick!
It was so fast that Kyle just had the thought of casting the Holy Light Shield, and the Holy Light didn't even have time to condense and take shape in his hands!
The burning fanaticism and cold murderous intent in Ruby's eyes were instantly replaced by incredible pain and confusion.
She just felt as if she was hit head-on by a high-speed moving mountain!
The violent force ignored the weak holy light protection that was spontaneously activated on her body surface, brutally tore through her defenses, and penetrated into her internal organs!
“Ugh—!”
A short and painful groan came out of her mouth.
She was like a kite with a broken string, flying backwards at a speed even faster than when she rushed towards her!
The holy flame on the flail was extinguished instantly!
The delicate body slammed hard against the thick canvas wall of the tent with a dull thud, then slid softly to the ground, curled up into a ball, blood uncontrollably flowing from the corners of her mouth, staining her black nun's uniform red.
She tried to struggle, but the severe pain and the shock brought by the terrifying power made her eyes go black, her bones seemed to fall apart, her magic power was in chaos, and for a moment she had no ability to resist at all.
The whole process happened as fast as lightning!
The werewolf Warwick Bennett slowly retracted his claws, as if he was just brushing off a speck of dust.
It didn't even glance at Ruby who was lying on the ground seriously injured. Its golden pupils were still staring calmly at Kyle with a gloomy face.
"Lady Ruby's enthusiasm is a bit too intense."
Its voice remained deep and magnetic, without a trace of emotion. "Young man, it always takes a lesson to learn to revere true power and...truth. The Church of Holy Light may be powerful, but not everyone is Alfonso."
Kyle's heart felt like it was being gripped by an icy hand!
He was very clear about Ruby's strength. She was the top one even among her peers in the Holy City Monastery!
She will definitely be an outstanding nun who will join the Holy Knights in the future.
But in front of this werewolf who didn't seem to give off the aura of a high-level professional, he couldn't even withstand a single move?
The opponent didn't even use any obvious energy fluctuations, just pure physical strength and speed!
The gap! A gap as huge as a chasm!
The Argonian Spencer let out a low, mocking roar, and a hint of contempt flashed in his vertical pupils.
