Because of Renn's distraction, the Greatsword of Light was already at Renn's forehead, about to pierce through him.
but……
A powerful force of spatial stasis froze the greatsword of light in place, preventing it from advancing an inch.
Raine reached out and touched the patterns on the greatsword, saying calmly.
"There are differences even among the sixth rank. You're still too green to fight me."
After saying that, Raine suddenly grabbed the hilt of the greatsword and threw it at Audrey.
Audrey was shocked and hurriedly tried to wrest control of the greatsword from Raine, but no matter how Audrey tried to control it, the greatsword continued to fly towards her.
Seeing the giant sword hurtling towards her head, Audrey quickly dodged to the side.
The giant sword flew past and slammed heavily into the church wall behind Audrey, collapsing half of the church.
Before Audrey could recover, Raine had already grabbed her by the neck with his left hand and lifted her up, suppressing and sealing Audrey's magic with his own.
Seeing this, Audrey gave up struggling. She knew that she was no match for Renn at all, and that even if she wanted to self-destruct, Renn would stop her.
She stared intently at Renn, speaking haltingly.
"The Holy Light... will eventually purify everything... I, Audrey, am... the cornerstone..."
Looking at the madwoman in his hands, whose eyes showed no fear, Raine narrowed his eyes and realized that Audrey was an absolute fanatic.
This also explains why she harbored such great hostility towards Joan of Arc, who had lost her innocence.
It should be said that she wasn't targeting Joan of Arc, but rather anyone who violated church law.
To put it nicely, they are principled; to put it bluntly, they are inflexible and their minds have been completely corrupted.
Joan of Arc was being targeted by such a person, and Renn cursed his bad luck inwardly.
He and Audrey had nothing more to say to each other.
He had seen far too many fanatics like this in the Misty Lands, and he had completely given up on them.
It's practically impossible to hear people like them beg for mercy or see them remorse.
Whether you threaten her with her family and friends or make her suffer humiliation at the hands of thousands, she will believe it is a test from the gods.
Therefore, directly taking action to kill is the optimal solution.
Raine raised his right hand, pointing his index finger at Audrey's heart, and a beam of dark golden magic pierced through Audrey's left chest at lightning speed.
Her magical core and heart were destroyed by Raine.
"Cough cough..." Audrey coughed up blood and grinned.
"I... will return to the embrace of the God of Light... and you, Raine, you heretic, will surely be scorned by the God of Light..."
After saying that, Audrey tilted her head to the side, and her eyes lost their light.
Audrey Hughes, one of the five elders of the Church of Light, is dead.
Raine tossed Audrey aside, flew out of the palace, and headed towards the Fourth Elder's palace.
Inside the central palace, Pope Granger watched Audrey die and once again made the sign of the cross on his chest.
Elder Finn, standing to the side, watched this scene with regret and said...
"Ah, Audrey may be fanatical, but with her around all these years, the church's discipline has greatly improved. It's a pity..."
After finishing his prayer, Granger glanced at Finn and snorted coldly.
"What a pity? What's a pity?"
"Yes, she has improved the church's discipline on the surface, but what about the things she doesn't see behind the scenes?"
"Because of her presence, the sordid things that happen in the church behind the scenes have become even worse and more rampant!"
Finn remained silent.
Granger slowly rose from his throne and said, "That kid went to see Fourth Elder Jokic. I'll go there."
"The church cannot afford to lose another sixth-rank member..."
