Chapter 662 Witness my sublimation!
Zoe turned her head and saw that the huge muzzle on the wall was gradually flashing with light, and the orange-yellow flames were converging towards this side from behind like fire dragons.
The Candlelight Society priests soon noticed this and tried to rush towards the cannon, but this time it was not as smooth as the previous charge.
More [Investigators] managed to rush over, but their offensive was entangled by the Mechanicus.
Once the [Investigator] got close to the Mechanicus, the situation immediately turned into a one-sided massacre.
But this massacre has to be carried out by killing people.
The Mechanic Priests' battle lines were layer upon layer, densely packed and filling up half of the room.
And no matter how powerful the [Investigator] was, he was just one person, and they were almost squeezed in the middle.
But these mechanical priests are not that easy to kill.
The higher the rank of the priest, the more modified limbs he has, and they are all made of steel.
The flesh and blood body is indeed weak, but the steel body is very resistant to blows.
[Investigator] One punch can make a mechanical body spark and lose its ability to move, but it can't make steel disappear.
Dead Mechanicus were sometimes more difficult to deal with than living ones, especially when the crowd grew larger and larger. The [Investigator] who rushed forward felt as if he had been squeezed into a steel wall.
Some extreme Mechanicus will put bombs in their bodies, which will explode after they die. The proportion of extreme Mechanicus is relatively high.
Then these [investigators] suddenly discovered that these mortals were not as easy to deal with as they had imagined.
They were stopped here, and the huge cannons on the wall would not wait for anyone.
Soon the buzzing sound of the artillery fire became louder and louder, and it seemed that it was not far from being able to be fired.
Zoe grabbed Gaia's clothes in a panic: "What should we do? If this goes on, everyone will die!"
Gaia gritted her teeth and pointed to a thick pipe nearby. "You brought the Dragon Breath Cannon, right? We'll rush over to the pipe, blast a hole with it, and then get in!"
"Where does that pipe go?"
"I don't know! I only know it should be empty, and someone from the Mechanical Temple just came out!"
When the Candlelight Society was locked in a tough fight, the Mechanical Temple was frantically stalling for time, and Zoe and Gaia were about to run away, in an unnoticed corner of the battlefield, a man wrapped in a windbreaker excitedly raised his head.
His face was covered with a thick leather mask, the edges of which were even sewn to his skin.
If Zoe were here, she would definitely recognize him: this is a guest from the southern continent, the covert of the Temple of Eternal Peace.
But at this moment, he was not nervous at all, but just looked at the huge cannon that was gradually gathering energy with anticipation.
The humming sound of the cannon suddenly stopped, and the energy gathered at the muzzle was like flowing slurry.
Everyone looked towards the muzzle of the gun, with fear, regret, hesitation, and confusion flashing across their faces.
The strong energy caused the entire church to tremble. No, not only the church, but everything around it, even the high walls of reality were shaking.
The investigators present immediately abandoned the enemy and fled frantically in the direction away from the muzzle of the gun.
But suddenly, all the extraordinary people paused, and then turned their heads in shock.
Zoe and Gaia, who had just rushed to the pipe and were about to take out the dragon breath cannon, also stopped.
“The high wall of reality”
"It's broken."
The huge energy tore a hole in the world, and something was madly pouring into the world. The surging waters in the Sea of Unconsciousness began to flow back towards this side!
In just a moment, the investigators not far from the muzzle lost control. Amidst a distorted wail, their flesh and blood ruptured, and new hideous limbs broke out of their bodies.
Suddenly, more than a dozen monsters appeared in the banquet hall!
The mortals of the Mechanical Temple and the Candlelight Society beside them just stood there blankly, without any reaction. They neither fled in fear nor took up weapons to fight.
Being washed directly by the waters of the Sea of Unconsciousness is no less than throwing a person completely into pollution.
Although mortals are more resistant to pollution than extraordinary people, they are not much better. It won't be long before they are also eroded by pollution.
Only Zoe and Gaia, who were standing in the corner of the banquet hall, were still some distance away from the rift in reality, so the water from the Sea of Unconsciousness had not yet flowed back into them.
They both shuddered.
Gaia hurriedly pulled out the dragon breath cannon from her chest, pointed it at the pipe and prepared to fire, but Zoe next to her patted her shoulder and pointed forward.
"What's wrong?! Don't get in the way! Let's run first and talk later!"
Gaia looked in the direction Zoe pointed and was stunned.
The skin-covered one, he... seemed to be fine and not out of control.
No, not only was he not out of control, he was walking against the backflow of seawater towards the muzzle of the gun that was crackling and flashing white light.
"How is that possible? That's the water of the Sea of No Consciousness! Even in that world, one has to wrap the soul with consciousness to touch it, but he touched it directly with his flesh!?"
Gaia thought she must be going crazy.
Is there anyone in this world who can be contaminated by physical contact?
Oh, Lord, you can, but you are purifying the pollution. However, the Skin-Covered One in front of you is standing in the seawater flowing back from the Sea of Unconsciousness, but there is nothing unusual about it!
No, if you look closely
Gaia activated her spiritual perspective, and the whole world suddenly turned black and white. The transparent sea of unconsciousness turned into a thick, insoluble black.
And this black seawater is pouring into the body of the skin-covered being? !
"Impossible, impossible, what the hell is going on?!?!"
Countless seawater mixed with pollution poured in, but the Covered One did not show any abnormality. He walked step by step to the huge muzzle, the blazing white energy ball, and the crack in the world, and slowly stretched out his hand.
"I see. Is this the power of the Named One?"
"Luckily, the ritual was successful. If there had been even the slightest mistake, I would have been instantly consumed by the surging pollution and turned into a monster out of control."
He slowly turned his head and looked at Gaia and Zoe in the corner of the church.
"Heh, I originally kept you around to give me an extra way out, but now it seems you're no longer necessary. Witness my ascension!"
He tore off the mask with one hand, and the mask sewn on his face tore off a large piece of flesh and blood, which was immediately repaired by the sea water and pollution that flowed into his body.
Beneath the mask was the face of a young girl.
Looking at Zoe and Gaia standing there in a daze, the girl suddenly smiled.
"I almost forgot to introduce myself. I'm Beatrice Perannis Rhine Joan, Pope of the Candlelight Society and the Mechanical Temple, Emperor of the Saint Mir Empire, and the new [Named One]. Remember to give my regards to Hughes."
