With the help of the light emitted from Xiao Mu's body, Mark lifted and threw away rocks of different sizes until Kyle's body was completely dug out.
After clearing the stones, the first thing that appeared in front of Mark was a back with grid-like scorch marks burned by the holy light.
"The skin on his back wasn't completely burned, proving his physique was strong enough to withstand the impact of Stan's self-explosion."
Mark put his hand under Kyle's nose and relaxed a little after confirming that he was still breathing.
As long as he is still alive, the Holy Light Church will definitely be able to rescue him.
Well... Actually, even if he is dead, the Church of Holy Light can resurrect him if it wants.
However, to be fair, Mark would definitely not watch his savior suffer deep underground in this dark place.
Since Kyle's life was not in danger for the time being, Mark turned his attention to the direction where Stan had just been.
————
Mark walked over the gravel to the remains of Stan.
At this time, a faint milky white ball of light was hanging above his body.
In the dim light of the light ball, the sacred golden armor had already melted into a twisted metal shell in the explosion.
But Stan's skinny and paranoid face and shriveled body remained intact, as if the holy light still favored this pious face at the last moment.
When approaching the milky white ball of light, Xiao Mu immediately purred excitedly and pounced on it.
The jelly-like pink translucent body suddenly expanded three times, sucking all the halo into its belly.
"Hey! You greedy bastard, at least let me see what that thing is first!"
Mark discovered that although Xiao Mu became closer to him after drinking the holy water he mixed, he also became more and more courageous.
However, he still didn't understand what Xiao Mu liked to eat.
When fighting with Stan before, Xiao Mu also said that he wanted to eat Stan.
Now it seems that it is not interested in Stan's human body, but in some special energy in Stan's body.
This special energy is the milky white ball of light just now, which always gives Mark a feeling that he has seen it before.
It was very similar to the aura emitted at the final moment of the Holy Light Nightmare's outbreak in the dream space.
However, Mark didn't know if those were his own illusions. No matter what kind of breath it was, it seemed to be the breath of holy light, and there should be only some difference in concentration.
When Mark was thinking this, Xiao Mu's body suddenly twisted and shook, and the ball of light swallowed by it suddenly dimmed. With a gurgling sound, Xiao Mu spit out a fist-sized transparent crystal into Mark's palm.
Before Mark could use the item identification tool to look at the crystal in his hand, he felt a torrent of information pouring into his temples like a burst dam, reflecting fragmented images.
In front of the church in the rainstorm, when the brother with a high fever was dying in Stan's arms because he had no money to seek the Holy Light for healing, the priest of the church baptized a noble newborn with the Holy Light with a humble face;
Stan, who successfully transitioned to a priest, joins a nobleman to study at a church monastery. The nobleman is directly appointed as the head monk of the same class.
The scene where Stan, with his legs broken, lies helplessly in a mud pit and is abandoned by his noble classmates;
And at the end, he was devoured by a terrifying monster, but was rescued and fed with a magic potion, with his body emitting holy light from the inside out.
"The Holy Light is with you and me. The only reason you haven't received a response from the Holy Light is because you are not pious enough." Stan's monastery teacher patted him on the shoulder and said this when he graduated.
But he had seen many priests outside the Pope's City using holy light to cure the gout of the powerful, but they turned a blind eye to the refugees dying outside the city gate. The believers in the Pope's City had never experienced the real holy light!
The true holy light never cares about status or whether His believers are strong or weak.
Whenever you need Him, He will merge into your body and bring you miracles!
When Stan was assigned to the Stonehammer Town Church, he sympathized with those believers who were destined to become miners, and with their faith, he transformed them into true believers of the Holy Light.
"This brief suffering is for the eternal return to the embrace of the Holy Light. Your dedication will allow the true Holy Light to shine upon the earth once again!"
This is how Stan, wearing ancient Vatican armor dug out from the mine ruins, explained to his believers.
Stan wasn't lying to them; he'd been there himself.
Perhaps, as the teacher said, they did not receive a response from the Holy Light simply because they were not pious enough.
Look, don't those Holy Light Blood Armor Paladins possess the wisdom bestowed by the Holy Light...
The memories of Stan that flooded into Mark's mind were filled with his own subjective emotions and opinions.
With just some scattered images and memory fragments, Mark could tell that Stan was a religious fanatic who hated the rich to the extreme.
What a bullshit for the holy light, for the hard-working believers, it's all just a tyrannical interference in faith that deprives others of their right to choose in order to satisfy his own empty heart.
Mark didn't see any faith at all, but only saw weak people who were unable to resist the suffering in their own lives, but turned around to destroy the lives of others.
"Bah! What a fucking retard! Why let the memories of such an idiot pollute my eyes!"
Mark cursed and forced his consciousness out of Stan's memory vortex.
Just as Mark cursed, a dark purple magic chain suddenly shot down from the rock above and shot towards Mark who made the sound!
“Mmm——!”
A circle of dazzling white light immediately exploded from Xiao Mu's body surface, and dozens of fireballs wrapped in white light were spit out from his mouth and hit the magic chain.
The fireball collided with the magic chain, quickly dissipating the magic energy on the chain.
"Huh?"
A light exclamation came from above, and then the dark purple magic chain that had been cut to an extremely thin line changed direction and gave up attacking Mark, and directly rolled up the transparent crystal in Mark's hand.
With a "whoosh" sound, the crystal was brought into the rock crevice above.
With the help of the fireball sprayed by Xiao Mu, Mark only vaguely saw a familiar figure leaving from behind Yan Feng.
"I'll trick you..." Mark never thought that even though the blood crystal mine had been blown up like this by Stan, someone would suddenly show up to take advantage of it.
That was something that exploded from Stan. How could something dropped by a "copy boss" be bad?
He didn't expect that someone would take advantage of the situation and snatch away his dropped equipment right in front of him!
Uncle can tolerate it, but aunt can’t recognize it!
"Damn it, that guy up there who stole my dad's equipment! You better tell me what that equipment is and what level it is! I haven't even finished looking at it yet!"
Hearing Mark's shouts below, the figure behind Yan Feng who was condensing magic stopped his actions, looked at the crystal in his hand, shook his head and chuckled, then tore open a teleportation scroll and disappeared from the spot.
