Chapter 253: The Holy Spirit Tree, the Sky Canopy, and the Innocent Man (1.3w)
Along with Lin En's contemptuous words, the Holy Spirit Tree suddenly emitted a wonderful energy fluctuation!
The next second, a sky like water waves slowly unfolded above Grostin, and colorful colors gathered in it, gradually forming a picture, and began to play the true situation that happened in the old factory that night in Lynn's memory!
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the sky, and the first scene that just appeared caused an uproar in the entire imperial capital.
It's really exciting.
The scene in the picture should be an abandoned old factory. The fourth prince Joshua was tied up by Lin En and was sleeping. Lin En was standing beside Joshua, touching his face with a sad look on his face.
It can be clearly seen from the picture that Lin En, who kidnapped the fourth prince, did not show the slightest panic.
"This guy really has a big heart. He has already been issued a Level 1 hunting order."
"Not only that, this guy was even talking to himself, worrying about the crimes he had committed and where he would rank on the wanted list."
"Hey, this guy took out parchment, is he writing a suicide note?"
Through the skylight, people can clearly see what happened that night in Lynn's memory.
But for some unknown reason, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't see clearly what Lin En wrote on the parchment, as if it was blocked by a mosaic.
The common people did not think much about this, but Chief Justice Cornell and Saint Laurent VI were a little surprised.
Especially Saint Laurent VI, the emperor who was always known for his iron fist, at this moment there was a rare flash of hesitation in his eyes. He was even a little reluctant to hang Lin En directly after the trial.
All signs indicate that Lynn may be hiding secrets that are not even recorded in the royal archives.
Soon, on the sky screen, the fourth prince Joshua woke up from his coma. Seeing Lin En standing in front of him, he looked extremely shocked and angry.
He clenched his teeth, as if trying hard to suppress the fear and anger in his heart, trying to maintain the dignity of a prince.
He shouted at Lin En to let him go, but Lin En did not respond to his request.
Then, Joshua began to persuade Lin En, admonishing him to think carefully. Taking a prince hostage was an unforgivable act. He hoped that Lin En could stop and not go further down the wrong path.
Ordinary people did not seem to notice anything wrong, but in the eyes of the shrewd nobles and the royal family including Saint Laurent VI, Joshua's performance was undoubtedly disastrous.
"According to what you said, holding the prince hostage is already a capital crime, so what does it matter if there are a few more charges?"
"For example, torturing and killing the prince."
In the picture, Lynn said jokingly.
Joshua's body could be seen trembling slightly, with fear and trembling visible to the naked eye. His already limited dignity was about to collapse.
The people who were watching this scene became indignant and could not help but sympathize with Joshua and denounced Lynn as a devil.
And the next sentence that Lin En said lightly made everyone in the city deeply appreciate the extent of Lin En's madness!
"Do you think I will die here because of such a small matter?"
Hearing this, almost everyone gasped.
Assassinating a member of the Imperial Parliament in the street, paralyzing him for life, and kidnapping a prince were just trivial matters in Lin En's eyes.
"Oh my god, is this guy still human?"
"Mad man, absolutely a complete mad man!"
"This demon has disregarded the laws of the empire and must be severely punished!"
There was a constant stream of condemnation against Lin En from the crowd.
Fortunately, the picture on the sky curtain continued, especially what happened next, which instantly calmed Grostin down.
"Congressman Black is still too young. Doesn't he know who my Highness is collecting taxes for?"
"Just think about it. Imagine killing him, one of the main culprits who caused the border tax revenue to be embezzled for many years. Would Your Majesty be happy or angry?"
Lin En's words were like a sharp sword, directly piercing through the dirtiest power game beneath the empire's glamorous appearance.
Assuming that what Lynn said is true, then Congressman Black is a thoroughly corrupt official, and it seems that his death does not deserve a pity.
As for Saint Laurent VI, he did not expect such a thing to happen. He was somewhat unhappy in his heart, and even doubted whether his decision to use the form of the Holy Tree Trial to judge Lin En was correct.
But once the Holy Tree Trial begins, there is no possibility of stopping.
Not even Saint Laurent VI could stop it.
In the picture, Joshua has been completely broken by fear. He is sweating profusely and shaking all over. There is no trace of his usual arrogant look.
"You can't kill me. I, I can't die. The Ruins Project is not yet completed. I..."
Joshua spoke incoherently.
People who were watching this footage were somewhat curious about what the "Ruins Plan" he was talking about was.
There's no way around it, gossip is part of human nature.
And what Lynn said next made Marquis Saxton and Lady Olivia's hearts tremble violently.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you."
Lynn said after glancing at Joshua.
As for Marquis Fred, his face suddenly turned extremely pale.
They had been worried that there would be complications because of the Holy Tree Trial, but they never expected that this situation would actually happen.
"But if you accidentally die in the aftermath of the battle between me and the Limb Reattacher, it will have nothing to do with me."
After these words were spoken, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
"What a vicious guy! Even though he didn't kill the Fourth Prince himself, this doesn't change the fact that the Fourth Prince died because of him!"
"What a great trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife!"
Someone in the noble seats gnashed his teeth and commented, "He has removed the thorn in his side while keeping his hands clean. This is really... insidious!"
At this point, Lynn’s image in the eyes of the world has been fixed.
Insidious and crazy, the nobles said he was more dangerous than a poisonous snake, and the common people said he was more terrifying than a devil.
But what they didn't know was that the climax of the drama had just begun.
"That's not right. Isn't Lin En the Limb Retaker? Why would he talk about his battle with the Limb Retaker?"
For a moment, people were confused, and curiosity drove them to continue looking down.
Only by watching this fragment in Lynn's memory in its entirety can the truth be revealed.
Soon, eighteen shadows appeared silently on all sides of the old factory, surrounding Lin En.
"It's the extraordinary team from the military, the Tenri Church, and the Mandated Punishers!"
Anyone with a sharp eye could recognize it at a glance.
When Joshua saw that the official superhumans finally arrived at the old factory, hope was instantly ignited and he immediately asked everyone for help.
After a conversation, Lynn did something that surprised everyone.
"I surrender."
These three simple words echoed over Grosstin at this moment.
"You can arrest me and claim the reward."
The turn came so suddenly that no one expected it. Everyone originally thought that Lin En would have a big fight with the official superhumans who came to arrest him.
As a result, Lynn surrendered directly.
"After all this trouble, assassinating a congressman and kidnapping a prince, in the end it's all for show effect?"
The people who were watching this scene were silent.
Even those who suspected that Lin En was playing some tricks were completely confused when they saw that they were voluntarily put on restraint shackles. They could not understand Lin En's actions at all.
"Are you going to surrender now?"
"Then how did these people die? How did the fourth prince Joshua die?"
The scene before their eyes was incredible to everyone, because according to the official report, these official supernatural beings and Joshua all died violent deaths.
Huge questions and curiosity drove them to stare at the sky.
Sure enough, Lynn did not disappoint them.
"You two, the spoils are not divided equally."
With just a few simple words, the first three forces that arrived at the old factory were instantly plunged into internal strife.
At that time, Lin En didn't know what reward Saint Laurent VI had promised, but everyone present knew that whoever arrested Lin En could get a branch of the Tree of the Holy Spirit.
"Hiss, this guy is really smart. He even figured this out."
"Apart from the crimes he committed, he is indeed a man of incredible intelligence."
People were amazed at Lynn's wisdom, but at the same time they were concerned about his methods.
Because the next moment, the extraordinary people from the three forces were caught in a fierce battle.
The audience's thoughts at this moment are exactly the same as Joshua in the picture - Lynn is a demon who plays with human nature!
The reward of the branch of the Holy Spirit Tree was indeed too tempting. The three forces had no intention of holding back and were fighting desperately at this moment.
About ten minutes later, people clearly heard a "click" sound, and Lin En's hands slowly broke free from the shackles.
At this time, there were more than ten figures lying on the ground. Lynn, who had broken free from his restraints, walked slowly towards Joshua.
There was also a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
"Are you going to attack the Fourth Prince?"
The audience felt terrified at this moment. After all, in their opinion, they were about to witness a prince being killed on the spot.
Many people even held their breath.
But what happened next left everyone stunned.
In the picture, a second-level extraordinary person wearing the iconic black robe of the Tianli Church was trembling strangely at this moment, his skinny fingers dug deeply into the ground, and he slowly raised his body from the pool of blood.
This guy's eyes were bloodshot, hiding surging hatred and murderous intent.
Even though they were just separated by a screen, everyone could feel a bone-chilling chill and resentment from him.
Ordinary people even have a chill down their spines, shivering and their souls are trembling.
"Is this the real Limb Reattacher, Burrhuman?"
Standing next to Saint Laurent VI, Hillelina's eyes fixed and she made her own judgment in an instant.
But most people are still confused at this moment. They cannot determine the identity of this guy who suddenly appeared for a while.
But one thing is certain - this guy is definitely not a true believer of the Tenli Church.
Because the power in him obviously comes from the devil and is full of evil and malice.
On the contrary, outside the crowd, Bishop Connor, who was sitting in the carriage, had a bad expression on his face, because no matter whether this guy was a true believer of the Tianli Church, the reputation of the Tianli Church would definitely be damaged at this moment.
He didn't even dare to think about what would happen next.
If this fake Tenli Church believer is really the Limb Remover Burshuman, then no matter what happens next, it will be difficult for the Tenli Church to completely distance itself from the matter.
How could a high-level demon sneak into the Tianli Church and get involved in the operation to arrest Lin En? Some things cannot be explained.
But Bishop Connor didn't have the mood to think about this at the moment. He was more concerned about how the situation would develop next.
"finally found you."
The extraordinary person from the Tianli Church, who was wearing a black robe, grinned with a sinister smile, which made everyone who saw the scene feel a chill.
"Lord Kushustain... let me... say hello to you."
If she had only suspected that this guy was the real limb-replacer, Burshuman, then now that this sentence had come out, Hillina had already confirmed this guess.
In a flash, she sorted out the whole story, starting from Lynn's assassination of Senator Black.
Soon, Hillina figured out the truth of the whole matter.
"I see."
Hillina looked stunned, her chest rising and falling violently with her emotions.
The truth is far crazier and more...dangerous than she could have imagined.
And in the sky screen, Lynn and the limb-replacer have completed the first round of confrontation.
Even under Lynn's guidance, the limb transplanter introduced himself and admitted that he was the limb transplanter Burshuman.
Then, the cloth on his body exploded instantly, accompanied by a "swish" tearing sound, and pale hands pierced through the flesh and blood, slowly stretching out with sticky blood plasma.
The hands came in all shapes and sizes—some were long and graceful, some were strong and sturdy, and some were even childlike and delicate.
When the last piece of cloth fell to the ground, the true appearance of the limb-replacer was finally revealed!
At this moment, the entire Grosstin seemed to be shaking violently, and almost everyone looked up at the picture on the sky screen.
The reason why Burrhuman was given the name of the limb-joiner was that every time he killed a target he liked, he would cut off the most beautiful part of the victim's body and sew it onto his own body.
At this point, even the dumbest person would know that this guy disguised as a supernatural being from the Tianli Church was the real limb-replacer, Bolshuman.
"Mom, I'm scared."
At this moment, the limb-replacer looked like a bloated flesh worm with countless limbs, and his entire body was covered with dense sutures, which was extremely weird.
Ugly is not the right word to describe him.
The most important thing is that this scene was not blurred, which led to many children in Grosstin seeing it, and they were scared to tears.
It is not difficult to imagine that for a long time to come, the image of a limb transplant recipient will become a nightmare for many people.
"How could this happen? Lin En is not a limb transplanter..."
This fact was difficult for the vast majority of people present to accept.
After all, with the spread and fermentation of public opinion, coupled with the wanted order issued by Saint Laurent VI, most people have firmly believed that Lynn is the culprit of this series of murders.
Coupled with the word-of-mouth rumor that Lin En was exiled to the border and then took revenge on society out of resentment, people have come to believe this proven fact.
It does make sense.
But now the facts are before our eyes, shattering the version of the rumor that has been passed down by word of mouth among the people.
No one would doubt that there would be any falsehood in the Holy Tree Trial. In the hearts of every citizen of the Saint Roland Empire, the Holy Tree Trial was absolutely fair and just.
But even though the true identity of the limb transplant recipient has been made public, many people are still confused and even fall into a brief period of bewilderment.
It was not until Matthew, a nobleman, spoke that the truth of the whole matter was revealed.
"I think I understand."
"The real reason why Lynn attacked Congressman Black was to pretend to be the murderer and make people think he was the limb grafter. This would anger the real limb grafter, Burrhuman, and lure him to show up."
Although Matthew explained it very clearly, many people still don’t understand.
"Ridiculous, why would the real limb-replacer show up when Lynn pretends to be the murderer?"
Lady Olivia said with disdain.
"What a big-breasted, brainless guy."
Matthew shook his head at Olivia.
"He's right."
At this moment, Melanie stood up and said loudly:
"According to my understanding of the Ascension Trial and my research on the demons, the evil and cruel faith must create extreme fear to conform to its origin law. So this limb-holder who believes in the evil and cruel faith wants to create panic in the city by carrying out serial murders, and then use the panic in the hearts of the people to complete his own advancement."
When she came to this point, Melanie paused for a moment and continued:
"Lin En pretended to be a murderer and made people think that he was the limb grafter. This was equivalent to transferring the fear energy that originally belonged to the real limb grafter to him."
"This is something that a true limb-replacer cannot tolerate, so he will definitely show up, find Lin En, torture and kill him, and regain his identity."
When Melanie said this, most of the people present suddenly understood.
At this moment, when they looked at Lin En on the sky screen again, their mood became a little complicated.
"Humph, what's the point of saying so much?"
Madam Olivia sneered, "Even if Lin En wasn't the real limb transplanter, the Fourth Prince still died because of him. Just because of this crime, it's enough for him to die a thousand or ten thousand times."
The audience's conversation did not affect the continuation of the sky screen picture. People could clearly see a fierce battle breaking out between Lynn and the limb-replacer.
In the picture, Lynn snapped his fingers gracefully, and in an instant countless thorny brambles entangled his body. Amidst the mournful wails, a scarlet halo spread out like ripples.
The recipient of the limb transplant looked like he had suffered a serious injury. All his limbs were shaking wildly like tentacles and twitching continuously.
Opportunities are fleeting.
Lin En held his right hand in an empty fist, and the dark silk threads intertwined in his palm to form a spiral knight's spear. Although there was still a sense of disobedience in his heart, he did not hesitate in his actions - twisting his waist, exerting force, and throwing!
“Puff!”
Amid the sound of flesh being torn apart, the spear pierced the monster and nailed it to the mottled wall.
The dark red blood flowed slowly along the wall, and after a moment, the creature stopped struggling and looked like it was dead.
"Even the limber is no match for Lin En?!"
Everyone looked at this scene with disbelief on their faces.
As everyone knows, Lin En is only at the second level, while the limb-replacer is infinitely close to the fifth level. There is an insurmountable gap in strength between the two.
However, people like Hillina can still see that Bershuman's true strength has not been fully demonstrated, and this guy must be plotting something.
After revealing an intriguing smile, all of Bolshuman's stitched limbs instantly retracted into his body, causing him to look like an ordinary believer of the Tenli Church. Moreover, he was pierced through the chest by a spear and nailed to the wall.
Just as everyone was looking at this scene in confusion, the factory glass suddenly shattered on the sky screen.
A slender figure bathed in moonlight slowly descended like a moon goddess.
Everyone recognized at a glance that this was Saint Tia of the Church of Silence.
She herself was there at the time.
Finally there is a living witness.
When Tia arrived at the old factory, the scene that caught her eyes was a mess, with traces of fierce fighting everywhere. The already dilapidated old factory now looked shaky, as if it would collapse at any time.
"Saint Tia appears at this time, she should instinctively think that it is Lin En who caused all this."
Someone in the crowd whispered.
"Indeed, the extraordinary people from various forces fell to the ground, barely breathing. The Fourth Prince, who was tied up, had a pale face and his neck was tilted. It was unknown whether he was alive or dead. Saint Tia would definitely misunderstand that it was Lin En who did it."
Someone echoed.
And the facts were indeed as they had speculated. In the scene, Saint Tia did misunderstand Lin En. After she gave an order, the nine nuns behind her flashed, drew out their beheading swords with cold light, and instantly engaged in combat.
"Why does it seem that besides being extremely angry, Tia Sheng also seems to be very disappointed with Lin En?"
"Is there any intersection between these two people?"
There were still some sharp-eyed people who noticed this slight change in expression.
However, more people were still indignantly cursing the cunning limb-joiner, Burlehuman.
Now everyone finally understood why he had to return to his human form and pretend to be nailed to death by Lin En. It was purely to frame everything on Lin En and mislead Tia.
Finally, with Tia's attack, Lin En, whose body was covered in blood, was tied to the ground by shackles formed by several rays of moonlight.
Sister Louise approached him with the attitude of a victor, stepped on his chest with her high-heeled boots, and knocked Lynn to the ground.
Seeing this scene, many people at the scene began to sympathize and feel sorry for Lin En.
"Hey, I wonder what Saint Tia feels when she sees this scene?"
"She should feel regretful. If she had arrived earlier, she might have seen a different scene."
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, but Saint Tia herself remained silent, and her expression did not seem to fluctuate at all.
But in fact, my heart was already in turmoil.
She felt remorse in her heart for having misunderstood Lin En.
Ten minutes later, members of various major churches, the Punishers and the Night Torturers team arrived at the scene one after another. After checking, they found that the Fourth Prince Joshua was still alive, which made them feel relieved.
But for the people watching on site, the fact that the Fourth Prince Joshua was still alive added to the suspense.
Everyone was curious about how the Fourth Prince died, and what happened next after Saint Tia and many high-level transcendents arrived.
Great curiosity drove them to continue reading.
A military killer hiding in the shadows suddenly appeared and claimed that he had received the latest order to execute the limb transplanter on the spot.
Before Tia could even react, the military killer raised his sharp bayonet and stabbed it towards Lin En's chest.
This time, the miracle did not happen.
The sharp blade completely penetrated the boy's body, and the bloody spiked part passed through his chest and appeared directly on his back.
This scene caused an uproar in the entire Grostin.
It has now been confirmed that Lin En is not the limb transplant recipient, but there are still people in the military who want to kill Lin En. This inevitably makes people wonder whether the military has ulterior motives.
"Look, the limb grafter is alive again!"
There was a very sharp-eyed viewer who noticed a corner of the picture that no one else noticed.
A faint friction sound came from the darkness, as if some limbs were scratching the ground and walls.
At the same time, Lin En also fell to the ground because of this fatal injury, and Saint Tia became at a loss when she looked at the dying Lin En, which made everyone more convinced that the relationship between her and Lin En was extraordinary.
Although Lynn was seriously injured and on the verge of death, the quarrel over the limb transplanter in the old factory was not over.
The temptation of the branches of the Holy Spirit was shattered. Saint Laurent VI wanted a living Lin, not a dead Lin. This caused the other extraordinary people present to be furious with the extraordinary Casimo who had killed Lin.
The situation was tense and fighting could break out again at any time.
"What a bunch of idiots!"
"Lin En risked his life to lure the limb grafter out, even at the risk of bearing the infamy. However, these self-proclaimed righteous transcendents are still fighting over the branches of the Holy Spirit Tree!"
"Oh, I feel so bad for Lin En."
The audience couldn't help but denounce.
This made the major churches and the military present very embarrassed, but there was no other way.
"The real limb-replacer is still alive, and these idiots are still fighting among themselves. Oh, it's really infuriating."
There were many dissatisfied voices in the crowd, one after another.
Fortunately, someone with a little bit of brains in the old factory finally realized that something was wrong:
"Do you feel something is wrong, as if some people are missing?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately looked around and found that there were indeed fewer people, less than half of the number at the beginning.
"What a bunch of pigs!"
The people who were watching this scene started to curse loudly. They had just discovered the limb-replacer's movements in the dark, and he had eliminated dozens of extraordinary people silently.
But these guys were so busy fighting among themselves that they didn't notice it at all.
"Look up!"
Someone said loudly in a horrified tone.
In the picture, there was a gecko-like figure perched on the ceiling, wearing a black robe of the Tenli Church, with all kinds of limbs sewn all over the body, like a disgusting, thick and long worm.
"I don't know whether to say that you are stupid or greedy. As noble transcendents, you actually lost your vigilance for such a small benefit and ended up becoming a part of my body."
At this moment, the figure let out a sinister laugh.
When they saw this, the crowd was already filled with a barrage of abuse.
A group of extraordinary people who usually act high and mighty and claim to be extraordinary only now realized that Lin En was not the limb-replacer, but the stink bug lurking on the ceiling was the one.
In addition to anger, people feel more sympathy and regret for Lynn.
At the same time, it's not worth it for him.
The next scene that appeared on the screen shocked everyone.
Tia, the saint of the Church of Silence, disregarded her image and hugged Lin En's blood-stained body in her arms.
Not only that, she also used her trembling little hands to press hard on the wounds on Lin En's body, trying to awaken his consciousness.
"I'm sorry, this is all my fault."
"Please... don't die."
Almost everyone in Grosstin heard these two sentences of Saint Tia clearly, and almost no one was not moved by them.
At this moment, most people did not think about the relationship between Lin En and Saint Tia. They only felt that Saint Tia was the incarnation of the Goddess of the Bright Moon, who loved the world and cherished the memory of all living beings.
Of course, except for Sia who was there.
Looking at Tia holding Lin En in her arms, his face couldn't be greener.
"When I am promoted to the fifth-level legend, the strength of this body will be enhanced unprecedentedly. By then, it will be fully sufficient to serve as a temporary vessel for Lord Kushustain to descend."
A vicious smile appeared at the corner of Bershuman's mouth.
As soon as he said this, not only the extraordinary people in the old factory, but even the people who were watching the sky screen couldn't help but gasp.
You know, Kushustain, as the king of evil and cruelty, is on par with gods.
"It's really a big game of chess."
"I never expected that the reason why the amputee killed people was to gather sacrifices so that he could advance to the fifth level and summon the King of Evil and Cruelty to wreak havoc on the imperial capital of Glostin."
“I can’t imagine what kind of hell Grosstin will become if his goal is achieved.”
"Hey, if Lin En hadn't joined the game, maybe you and I would have died at the hands of the King of Cruelty. How could we still be standing here?"
While people were still feeling frightened, they were also grateful for everything Lin En had done.
"It is hard to imagine that a person could be so great that he would not hesitate to bear the infamy of being criticized by thousands of people. It can be said that he was willing to give up everything."
In the picture, the limb-replacer was killing people everywhere. His figure turned into several afterimages, flashing from all directions.
In just a few moments, more than half of the extraordinary people present were killed or injured.
Even the captain of the Punisher Squad, who sacrificed a Level Zero Seal, was unable to stop Bolshuman's path of killing.
Malice swept across the place, submerging the entire space.
Even the civilians who were watching this scene from across the sky felt boundless despair.
Because, Bolshuman has completed his upgrade trial and successfully advanced to the fifth-level legend.
It was at this time that a young girl murmured, "I must atone my sins," and slowly stood up, her eyes meeting those of the raging Bershuman.
Although the girl didn't say it explicitly.
But everyone who watched this scene understood what she meant by atonement.
Because she misunderstood Lynn.
So give him an explanation.
"Ber Xiuman has been promoted to the fifth level. Soon, the King of Cruelty will descend. By then, I will create a chance for you to tear a crack in this space. You can take the opportunity to escape and seek help from the church."
In the picture, Tia seemed to be saying goodbye to everyone, leaving behind her final words.
"Take Lynn's body and give him a decent burial."
She had already decided that this was the last thing she could do for Lynn, even if it cost her her life.
The next second, the quiet and soft moonlight flowed slowly in all directions like a stream.
Sister Louise took the cold body from Tia and stared at the scene in front of her with dull eyes. Her mind was filled with thousands of thoughts and her dry throat could not make a sound.
"Look, Lin En doesn't seem to be dead, his index finger trembled slightly!"
Someone was staring at the seemingly dead Lin En from beginning to end, so the abnormality occurred at the first moment.
In fact, they all knew that Lin En was not dead, otherwise, who would be the young man standing under the Holy Spirit Tree?
But everyone is always curious. The King of Evil, a being comparable to a god, is about to arrive. So will this final crisis be resolved by Saint Tia or by Lin En?
Everyone looked down with anticipation.
Borshuman, who was perched on the ceiling, suddenly began to chant in an obscure demon language.
There is no doubt that this is the advent ceremony of the King of Evil and Cruelty.
The next second, a terrifying aura that was countless times more powerful than that of the person who had received the limb suddenly exploded!
"boom!"
The violent pressure was like the collapse of the sky, sweeping across the entire space in an instant. The trembling from the depths of the soul made everyone's knees weak and they subconsciously collapsed to the ground.
The pupils of a few weak-willed ones dilated and they fainted in extreme fear, with white foam oozing from the corners of their mouths.
Looking at this scene, the people of Grostin did not laugh at the misery of those extraordinary people, because they also felt the fear and trembling from the depths of their souls through this scene.
They couldn't even imagine that if they were at the scene, they might have exploded and died.
After all, this is also the first time that ordinary people have faced the horror of demons that are comparable to gods.
They were fully aware that in the face of such an absolute power gap, even the thought of resistance was a luxury.
Just like an ant facing a tsunami, it has no choice but to wait for annihilation in despair.
In an instant, several third-level extraordinary beings exploded into blood mist, unable to withstand even a glance from Kushustein.
At the moment when the entire descent ceremony was completed, that is, when all the power was completely poured into Bolshuman's body, but he had no time to call upon it.
Tia had a chance to launch a fatal attack.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, she tightly grasped the Moonlight Scepter in her hand. The next second, as the bright moonlight suddenly lit up, Tia's temperament instantly became holy and ethereal, and her indifferent expression became more divine, as if she was transforming to a higher status.
Almost everyone looked up at the sky and looked at her in shock.
At this moment, Tia was like the incarnation of the moon goddess, curled up in the bright moon, suspended in the sky, faintly dispelling the haze of the dead land.
Even Kushustain, who was far away, had a flash of gloom and surprise in his eyes when he saw the rising moon.
Then he called out the name he didn't want to mention - "Beatrice!"
Although Tia seemed to have transformed into the Moon Goddess at this moment, shocking the world, she was not the real Moon Goddess after all.
Even she herself knew very well that she was no match for Kushustein. Her fatal attack could only tear open a crack, allowing Louise and the others to escape with Lynn's body.
Then what awaits you is death.
"You are not her! You are indeed not her!"
Kushustein laughed out loud. The opponent's fatal blow just now only caused him a tiny loss.
I was almost safe and sound.
But with a painful cough, Ketia's slender body fell rapidly from the sky.
At this moment, she had completely lost her fighting power and even slowly closed her eyes, waiting for death to come.
The sky screen showed Tia's efforts to resist the devil, but now she was exhausted. This extremely tragic scene moved countless people from the bottom of their hearts.
"Long live the Moon Goddess!"
It can even be said that in the entire Grostin, countless people worship the Church of Silence. Tia's actions form the most extreme contrast with those extraordinary people in the Church of Heavenly Principle.
"Look, Lynn is alive again!"
Someone shouted excitedly.
Because in the sky screen, Tia did not fall to the ground, but was held in the arms of Lin En who jumped into the air.
The great rescue in desperate situations is always something that brings tears to people's eyes. It also makes the whole city boil again, with passion and hope flashing in the eyes of countless people!
"Leave it to me next!"
The boy's cold voice fell clearly into the ears of everyone in Glostin.
Seeing the affectionate scene between the two, even Hillina was moved. At the same time, she was confused as to when these two people became involved, and it seemed very unusual.
"I didn't expect it, it's actually you!"
In the sky screen, after seeing Lin En appear, Kushustein actually laughed and roared.
"What's going on? Lin En and Kushustein En actually have some connections."
Hillina is now becoming more and more curious about Lin En, and her desire to poach him is becoming stronger and stronger.
The next moment, Lin En walked slowly to the front of the King of Evil and Cruelty and looked up at him.
When facing the evil king who was far superior to him in both size and strength, the indifference and calmness displayed by Lin En alone made people watching this picture feel extremely impressed.
It was even more exciting that Lin En even dared to tease and make fun of the King of Evil and Abuse.
Then, people only saw Lynn taking out a seemingly ordinary card, and it seemed that he had infused extraordinary power into it.
In an instant, the cards turned into a dazzling white light, wrapping Lin En in it.
Just like a grand magic trick, Lynn changed into a completely different appearance in an instant.
The boy was dressed in a black suit, paired with exquisite leather shoes, a cane, white gloves and a high-brimmed hat, and he looked like a magician with a dreamy glow all around him.
And under Kushustein's gaze, the young man gracefully took off his hat and touched his chest to salute everyone.
Watching this scene, countless people were overwhelmed with emotions and felt indescribable excitement and excitement in their hearts.
In their eyes, Lin En was undoubtedly like a savior at this moment.
"It's just a dress-up game. I thought you had such a powerful back-up."
Kushustain laughed contemptuously.
His words were like a heavy hammer hitting the heart of everyone who had expectations of Lin En.
Indeed, Lin En’s method just now was truly dreamy and brilliant, or even to put it simply, very handsome.
But what's the use of being handsome?
How can a mere second-level being defeat this indescribably powerful monster?
At this moment, everyone fell into despair again.
"Just ants."
Kusuisten opened his mouth and spewed out a river of blood, a blow that was enough to kill a fifth-level legend.
And he was sure that the blow actually landed on Lin En's head, but after a moment when the smoke and dust cleared, Lin En was still safe and sound.
People were also extremely surprised, and some people even closed their eyes just now, not wanting to see Lin En being tortured and killed, but the result was surprising.
The hope that had been extinguished was rekindled.
"No, you see, a transcendent from the Tianli Church died at the scene."
"I saw it too. He inexplicably turned into fine dust and disappeared into the air."
"What happened?"
This was not only the feeling of those watching the sky screen, but even a powerful person like Kushustein was puzzled.
“It’s very simple.”
Hearing this, Lin En smiled slightly: "If death is a kind of fate, then what I just did was to transfer the 'death' that originally belonged to me to that guy."
"Of course, the weight of destiny for each person is different. When grafting destiny, it can only be grafted onto two beings of the same level."
Lin En gave his own explanation. His method was truly magical. Not to mention ordinary people, even Hillina had heard of it for the first time.
Kushustain didn't seem to care about this. He directly exposed Lin En, saying that he was a second-level being, but he wanted to touch the power of God. It was a strong determination that he didn't die on the spot.
As soon as these words were spoken, people looked at Lin En intently and were surprised to find that Lin En's originally intact skin was now broken like porcelain and covered with cracks.
This scene made Morris and Graya Eleanor feel extremely distressed and they couldn't help crying.
Even Hilina remained silent.
Almost everyone knows that Lin En's incredible move actually cost him his life.
"Ahem, you're right."
Lin En in the picture was calmer than anyone expected. "So, I'll make it short."
"Kushustein, could you please leave for now?"
What Lin En said next made everyone feel incredible.
Lin En was actually negotiating with a devil. It sounded ridiculous, but it was actually happening.
Although the final negotiations ended in failure as expected, people's admiration for Lynn rose to a new level.
Apart from anything else, this courage alone is already commendable.
Just when people were curious about how Lin En would break this deadlock next, Lin En spoke again:
"Not long ago, I buried a needle made of painful energy into the Fourth Prince's brain."
"And just now, I grafted the thread of fate of Bershuman and the Fourth Prince together."
"So, let me ask you one last time... Kushustein, do you want to leave by yourself, or do you want me to send you off?"
Not surprisingly, this was Lynn's ultimatum.
The calmness and playfulness on the face of the King of Evil and Cruelty disappeared in an instant, replaced by scarlet anger and murderous intent.
No one expected that Lin En’s final backup plan would be this.
Many people were even trembling in fear, and of course there were also smart people who roughly guessed the final outcome of this incident.
But at this moment, almost everyone fell into silence.
Because the price Lin En paid to eliminate Kushustein was too high.
Not only would he have to sacrifice his own life, but he would also have to sacrifice the life of the fourth prince, Joshua.
The citizens watching this scene still had time to think about whether Lin En's action was right or wrong, but Lin En in the sky picture didn't even have time to think.
He just sighed slightly, then slowly raised his right hand and snapped his fingers, ignoring the anxious shouts of a girl in a corner in the distance.
Because if he hesitated any longer, he would be broken into pieces first.
The moment the fingers snapped, the Fourth Prince Joshua, who had been protected in the corner just now, seemed to have an epileptic seizure. His head tilted and he completely lost his breath.
Looking at this scene, countless people sighed.
As an extremely noble prince of the empire, his deal between man and devil was ended by a snap of Lin En's fingers.
And Kushustein's fury froze on his face, and his huge body, as big as a tall building, collapsed and dissipated like quicksand.
Before this, no one had expected that the terrible storm that was about to befall Glostin would be prevented at the most critical moment by the young man who everyone believed to be a murderer, who entered the form of a playwright at a huge cost and prevented the disaster from happening.
The picture on the sky curtain ends here.
However, those shocking scenes are still stirring in everyone's mind.
The young magician strolled leisurely in the old factory, dodging the opponent's fatal moves with a nonchalant attitude, disregarding his own life and death, and negotiated with a terrifying high-dimensional demon in an equal and even condescending manner.
Normal people can't even remain calm in front of His aura.
As for the bargaining chip, it was his own life.
Is there anything more fascinating than this scene?
At this point, the truth is revealed.
Lynn is not the real limb-joiner Burrhuman, nor is she the murderer of a series of serial murders.
Although the Fourth Prince was indeed killed by Lin En, it was ultimately to save the city.
As for the assassination of Congressman Black in public, causing him to be paralyzed for life, this crime has become completely insignificant at this time, and can even be ignored directly. At least no one mentions it now.
Who is Congressman Black? He's just a stray dog on the side of the road.
After all, everyone has seen that if Lin En didn't do this, the King of Evil would sweep across the entire Glostin, causing countless casualties, and it would definitely be an unprecedented disaster.
The nobles might still have a chance to escape, but the unarmed civilians were doomed to become the food of the cruel and brutal prey.
The Trial of the Holy Tree ended here, but it was far from over.
The truth and the ending were so unexpected that the whole city fell into silence.
"So Lin En wanted to save us?"
A mother holding a baby murmured to herself, her fingers unconsciously clenching the swaddling clothes.
Old John, who worked at the tailor shop at the corner of the alley, suddenly took off his hat and put it on his chest: "My son, who was in the city defense team, was killed by the limb grafter while on patrol."
Whispers began to spread like wildfire:
"I heard that the Fourth Prince was an evil scientist who conducted a large number of human experiments in private, and countless civilians died at his hands."
"If it's true, Lin En is doing this to get rid of harm for the people."
…
Emotions continued to brew, and finally, someone in the crowd was the first to shout "Lynn is not guilty." This shout was like a spark falling into a haystack, instantly igniting the long-suppressed emotions of the entire city.
At first there were only a few sporadic voices of agreement, but soon they spread like flames.
Tens of thousands of citizens flocked to the Clergy Square from all directions, with waves of noise getting louder and louder!
“He faced evil with his mortal body and saved the people with his bloody hands. Lin En is the most tragic and heroic lone hero of this era.”
"Therefore, Lynn is not guilty!"
