Chapter 94: Greedy Fruit God War Eve
Whether it becomes a pervert or not is another matter, but God cannot do anything to Eskin now.
Hidden thorns pierced the skin, and trickles of blood slowly flowed down the wounds. Because the ceremony had just ended and the believers were still immersed in it, no one around even noticed the abnormality here.
"Ers..."
Chen Shuang looked at the face of the person in front of her and changed her words: "Why are you here?"
Although he had doubts about Sifuska's identity, he did not expect that the God of Light would actually come in this body.
Thinking of the scenes I saw in my memory... maybe it was the same thing about tearing the origin apart.
Chen Shuang looked at the chubby girl's face in front of her, and there was no way to connect her with the cold and indifferent body of the God of Light.
Fran Shengzi said before that Sifuska had lost her memory when he picked her up. Maybe there was an accident during the tearing this time.
The girl in front of him immediately turned her head away: "I'm not"
Her expression was completely different from when we first met. There was no trace of girlishness on her face. "Be yourself" was written all over her.
Chen Shuang: Who can believe this?
"I have something to say to Him, Iper, let go first," she stopped God's hand from pressing down, preventing the human's carotid artery from being completely cut.
The black-haired priest lowered his voice and said, "This body is human. The one who will die will be Sifska, not Eskine."
She patted the god's arm and felt the power in it slowly relax. The god looked at his old friend coldly and retracted the sharp dagger condensed from the darkness in his hand.
"You won't let me kill Him." God turned his gaze back to the priest and said after a moment, "I'll listen to you this time."
"priest."
God said slowly, "But remember to tell me everything when you get back. I don't like being isolated."
Those eyes, as black as the night, were so clear that they reflected the figure of the human priest, as if the whole world was wrapped in them.
"If this guy were to tell me off from behind," God turned his gaze away, his eyes suddenly cold. He sneered, "I could have cut His neck in time."
The god came closer and looked directly into Chen Shuang's eyes, searching for the emotions in them: "Because, I am the only one who matters, right?"
"Of course, you are the most important."
Chen Shuang touched the black hair on the god's chest and said, "Some things cannot be explained clearly at once. When things here are over, I will tell you everything bit by bit, in detail."
Eskine: "..."
He is still here.
The god was quickly appeased, and the murderous intent he had revealed was temporarily hidden, but his eyes were still exceptionally cold when he looked at his old friend. Upon closer inspection, there was even a hint of provocation.
The girl with pigtails not far away was so engrossed in reading that she had no idea what the world was like. Her cheeks were flushed red, and when she came across an interesting part, she would read it out loud several times to savor it.
Pigtails: "No matter how hard you try, she still ignores you. I'm the only one in her heart. You can confuse her for a while, but you can't confuse her forever."
Eskin: ...That sounds so weird.
In order to avoid hearing more strange content, He moved His feet and walked towards the girl with pigtails. While she was immersed in it, He snatched the extremely evil book from her, and then threw it out quickly and accurately amid the girl's exclamation.
"My book, I can't live without you!"
The pigtails flew out along with the book.
Having solved a big problem, Eskin clapped his hands and suddenly felt a lot quieter in his ears.
"Clang!"
A loud noise suddenly came from outside, and His clapping action stopped.
"What's that sound?"
The sound, like a heavy object hitting a door, was particularly conspicuous in the quiet cathedral and immediately startled all the believers who were praying.
Noisy sounds gradually came in, and chaotic footsteps approached, mixed with the girl's cries of pain and some inexplicable resentment.
Eskin raised his eyes and looked at the open door.
“That’s them!”
"They used dark and evil magic to control the Saint. How could such a lovely little girl become like this? It must be an invasion of darkness."
The clergyman who had just left was the first to step through the door, his voice resounding and powerful: "Elder, you must eradicate the evil dark creatures and rescue the Saint. The hope of the Church of Light rests on you!"
Dark invasion?
Chen Shuang glanced at Shen, who slowly shook his head: "I will not be exposed."
The hidden darkness suppressed in the shadows may surge, but before it erupts completely, it will never be discovered by any human here.
This was divine power, the ability wielded by the world's most elite beings. As a god, he had absolute confidence in this, unless a god of the same caliber noticed...
He looked towards the light, but the other party did not look at him at this time, nor did he even pay attention to any of the church elders or clergy who came to criticize him.
Eskin stared at the gate ahead, his face expressionless.
God said, “It’s not Him either.”
Chen Shuang seemed to be lost in thought.
Since the arrival of darkness will not be noticed, and Eskine's report is ruled out, then why did this group of clergy come?
"Elder, it's her. She's holding a picture book that disrespects our God. This must be an invasion by dark forces."
"Tell me quickly, did the Saint give it to you? Was she controlled by the darkness? Tell me quickly!"
Two clergymen dragged the staggering girl. Her originally smooth and delicate braids became crooked. There was blood at the corner of her mouth. She seemed to have no strength left and could only let others pull her.
"No, no," she said, seeming to be in pain, and the breaths she exhaled from her abdomen were full of struggle. "I really picked it up, it's none of anyone else's business."
"Haven't you learned enough from the lesson just now? Do you need the elders to punish you again?"
The solemn white-robed elder ignored the pigtailed girl and looked directly at the Saint, that is, in the direction of Eskine. His voice remained unchanged, "I know you are a good child. May the God of Light bless you and allow your pure soul to break free from the shackles of darkness as soon as possible."
The white-robed elder had droopy eyelids and looked listless, but the words he spoke instantly perked up the people in the cathedral.
He said, "Today is a deeply unfortunate day. In the past, the great Church of Light, under the protection of our God, was able to spread light to the world. But now, the hateful darkness has crept into the Saint's side and poisoned her soul. As the highest executive officer of the Church's Elder Hall, I am forced to carry out a major purge."
"The darkness lurks within you." He glanced at the silent people in the cathedral and said slowly, "Please come out voluntarily. I will give you five seconds."
No one responded.
"It's okay if you don't come out," the white-robed elder said, as if he was tired, and slowly closed his eyes: "Let's clean everything."
"As for the Saint," he calmly announced the charges, "a person already corrupted by darkness should be eliminated immediately. However, out of God's mercy, she can be given a chance to repent and reform."
"Take Sifska to the confessional in the Elder Hall. I will personally guide her soul back and bring her back to the embrace of light."
As soon as the word "cleansing" was uttered, the church exploded.
"You can't do this. Besides, Sifska was just singing a hymn. How could she be invaded by darkness without any warning?"
"How dare you overstep your authority, His Royal Highness? Just get rid of us! We want to see His Royal Highness!"
"It's a bit loud," the white-robed elder opened his old eyes, "it's the darkness that's making the noise, isn't it?"
The clergyman beside him immediately leaned forward and said, "You are absolutely right."
Chen Shuang narrowed her eyes.
It seems that this is not just a case of being discovered, but a complete power grab drama.
The clergyman grabbed the pigtailed girl and snorted coldly, "You are the vanguard of darkness."
The girl with pigtails shed tears of pain. In such shock, she couldn't even finish a complete sentence and could only shout helplessly, "No, it's really not."
"No? No, why are you so close to the Saint? Why do you have such a disgusting book?"
The ferocious face approached, and he seemed to particularly enjoy the pleasure of manipulating other people's lives and deaths. He exerted force in his hands and tightly clamped the girl's neck: "Let's start with you."
"I've already said no, why are you asking again?"
The sound of breaking wind rang out in the air, and the arrow flew at high speed, leaving behind a feather tail that was still vibrating violently. Flames and hurricanes penetrated into the flesh and blood, wantonly stirring up the fragile body.
The clergyman immediately let go of his hands and screamed violently in pain.
Chen Shuang retracted her bow and arrow, and her wind magic lit up. A gentle but powerful wind brought the girl over. She patted the girl's back gently and said, "It's okay."
The pigtailed girl's tense emotions instantly broke, and she choked out, "I'm not... not a bad person... I didn't... do anything bad."
The tears soaked the collar of her clothes, mixed with the blood, looking shocking: "It hurts... Sister, it hurts so much, I want to go home."
Chen Shuang patiently comforted her: "Don't worry, we will be able to go home soon."
"Uh..." She changed her words: "Sifska, light healing magic, you are good at it, right?"
Erskine walked over, his fingers hanging by his side moving as if he wanted to touch the girl's forehead. But just as he was about to touch her, the confused girl with pigtails grabbed him and said, "They are all bad guys, dear Sifuska, hurry up, they are all bad guys..."
The voice gradually weakened, and finally he didn't even have the strength to hold on with his fingertips, and leaned softly on Shen Shuang's shoulder.
Eskine's hand, frozen in mid-air, finally moved. He lowered his eyes and said, "Severe impact injuries, internal organs damaged."
It was the loud noise just now.
Just as he threw the book out, the girl who ran out in a hurry to catch the book was blown away by the huge force of magic.
Those calm eyes finally moved and looked at the several clergymen at the church gate.
These people were the ones who did it.
The old white-robed elder finally showed a new expression. He looked in the direction of Chen Shuang: "Spellcaster?"
"Forbidden-level elemental mage..."
He raised his eyelids and said, "You shouldn't get involved in the church's internal affairs. I can give you some time to take your people away."
Chen Shuang: "What about Xifusika and the others here?"
White-robed elder: "Those who are corrupted by darkness will go to where they should go, and outsiders don't need to worry about them."
Chen Shuang: "It's really interesting."
He shouted for the killing of his own god, but told the hostile forces to leave quickly. It is not clear what Eskin's mood is now, but it must be very complicated.
Eskyn ignored the noise around him. He slowly wiped the blood from the pigtailed girl's mouth. A huge, soft and bright formation unfolded instantly, and rich white divine power spread within it, repairing the dying girl.
Pure light suddenly filled the entire church. The huge white statue was shrouded in a halo of light. The statue's gaze looked down and happened to fall on the "Saint".
"I said the rumor is true. The Saint possesses the rare divine favor of light and is God's most beloved human." The believers in the church suddenly became excited. They shouted, "Elders, you are mistaken. There are no dark lurkers here."
Such a rich light.
The white-robed elder finally opened his eyes completely and looked in the direction of the "Saint".
If it could be used by him, perhaps it would help him become even brighter...
"Foolish..."
The elder tapped his cane, silencing the voices in the cathedral. "This is just a disguise. You are not capable enough to see through the secret..."
A voice interrupted the elder's declaration: "Can't see through the secret?"
Eskine saw the pigtailed girl's breathing calm down and her eyes soften. He finally stood up slowly and asked, "Invaded by darkness?"
He looked at the old human in front of him calmly: "Are you talking about me?"
At a certain moment, the light in the cathedral changed, causing the "Saint" to glow all over. At certain angles, her figure even overlapped with the huge statue standing behind her, bringing a shock that cannot be described in words.
It was as if...a god had descended.
These words slowly crossed the minds of some believers.
Eskine said slowly, "Before you want to taste the fruit of greed, you must also see if you have the ability to pick the fruit."
"You're thinking that a tiny, powerless girl is a being that can be controlled at will."
"You think that the believers who witnessed your despicable behavior can be wiped out at will."
"You're thinking, these two elemental mages will definitely suffer losses if they fight. It's best to leave as soon as possible so as not to interfere with your next plan."
"You are thinking that by holding the Saint hostage and killing the Son of God, you will be the sole ruler of the Church of Light."
A faint golden glow shone in Eskine's eyes as he read the man's thoughts. "You're thinking about plundering the divine favors of others as quickly as possible, plundering all resources, and extending your lifespan."
"You're thinking right now..."
He said calmly, "How to kill me."
The white-robed elder had a serious expression on his face: "Nonsense! Evil has completely invaded the Saint. We must not let her leave today."
"leave?"
Eskine: "It's time for you to leave."
As He finished speaking, a sun bright enough to burn the eyes slowly descended and approached the Church of Light.
Several clergymen following the white-robed elder were the first to feel unwell. Under the astonished gazes of other believers, burns spread like wildfire on their bodies. After reaching a certain point, a cluster of bright flames instantly burned on their bodies.
Before he could make any sound, the flames instantly grew larger, engulfing the hideous face, leaving only a tiny amount of ashes.
The huge team in front of the cathedral disappeared in an instant, leaving only the pale old man standing at the head.
Eskine: "It's your turn."
The white-robed elder was speechless, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar person in front of him raising his arm, and a huge fear descended on his heart.
He will die, he will definitely die.
He can't die, he must not die!
He looked up suddenly.
Oh, and he also has powerful light magic, and he has the protection of God.
The staff instantly burst out with unprecedented brightness, and a giant magic circle unfolded under the elder's feet.
[Taboo Level: God's Sigh]
The light gradually grew larger until a huge white shadow formed behind him.
Eskine glanced up.
The phantom that had just been put together suddenly collapsed, carrying the power of the white-robed elder and disappearing between heaven and earth.
"Impossible, how is this possible!"
The divine power on his body gradually retreated and eventually returned to zero. Without the favor of the gods, his back became more and more bent until it became what a centenarian should look like.
"No...Impossible...My God..."
The trembling lips uttered the last words, the frail, aging body deteriorated rapidly, and life was heading towards its final end.
Eskyn waved away the setting sun, lowered his eyes, and said, "Greed is the original sin."
"The light declares that you are guilty."
The girl's brilliant golden eyes fell into the old man's eyes, startling him for the last time in his life: "You...you...are me..."
The last breath stopped, and the old body turned into ashes, disappearing before people's eyes along with the departing sun.
The ethereal wind chimes began to ring again, bringing back people's heartbeats.
"Just now, it was a miracle!"
A voice appeared first, followed by silence, and then more miscellaneous voices appeared.
"I said that gossip is reliable. The Saint is worthy of being a Saint. She is indeed someone blessed by God."
"My God, I will be rich, admired by beautiful women, and handsome..."
"Where's the book? Where's that book? I want to read it too!"
"If you want to read it, just tell me earlier. I'm so inspired today. I'll stay up all night for a few days and write a few more books for everyone's benefit."
"Alas," someone finally came to his senses and scratched his head, "Where's the Saint?"
*
"My book, good Sifuska, where is my book?"
Eskine was silent for a moment, then he picked up the damned book and stuffed it into the girl's arms. He paused for a long time before finally saying, "Read less in the future."
The girl with pigtails shook her head stubbornly and looked at Him with tears in her eyes.
Eskine was silent for a moment, then changed his words: "You can read more about the Dark God. He's very interesting."
god:"……"
Chen Shuang: “…cough.”
What a good trick to divert trouble away.
After sending the pigtailed girl away, Chen Shuang called out to the God of Light, "Eskin."
But Eskin did not stop until the sharp dagger was against his neck again.
God: “She is calling you.”
Eskine: "You have the wrong person."
As long as He refuses to admit it, those things cannot be applied to Him.
The god raised an eyebrow. "Is it because of the book 'After Rebirth, the Paranoid God of Light Cried and Begged Me to Love Again', or is it because of turning into a girl?"
Eskine: "...I don't know what you're talking about."
He turned and walked away, trying to escape the continuous spells in his ears, but it was completely useless. God always repeated the book from various angles and tones.
"How could there be such an interesting book? The priest has one here. I'd like to lend it to you..."
Finally, under the continuous mental attacks, Eskyn stopped walking with a pale face. He turned to face Chen Shuang and said: "Why don't we implement the plan in advance? Whether it succeeds or not, I really want to die now."
Shen Shuang paused for a few seconds and asked, "Are you okay?"
Looks like he's in dire need of mental help.
Erskine smiled reflexively: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
Chen Shuang: Hiss, things are getting a bit serious.
*
After trying hard to separate the gods and Eskin, Chen Shuang's ears finally quieted down a little. Before she could sit down, she heard a noisy sound coming from outside.
Pushing the door open from the room arranged by the Son of God, I looked into the distance and saw thick smoke billowing up into the sky.
It's a fire.
...and the smell of magic.
"It's in the direction of the Elders' Hall," a cold voice broke into the courtyard. There were several bloodstains on the face of the Son of God that were deep enough to see the bones. He carefully arranged his clothes until every fold was neatly spread out.
"I heard something terrible happened in the cathedral, and some people's divine favor suddenly dropped significantly," he yawned. "I'm glad to see you're all safe and sound. Those old guys must have suffered a great loss. It's really pleasing."
Sure enough, the attacks on the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter were carried out at the same time, and the Holy Son, who had extraordinary combat power, was obviously also an additional target.
Fran took a breath and wiped the blood off her hands. "It was so embarrassing. I almost couldn't get out."
"But it turned out alright," he said, his eyes lighting up. "It was those guys who couldn't get out."
The flames are fueled by the sun, and this magical fire will not go out until their last bone is burned out.
The Holy Son narrowed his eyes and smiled: "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, Your Excellency the Priest."
