"Uptown? You're really brave."
The indistinct shapes in the dim mist murmured softly, and the mist that revealed a lazy atmosphere... suddenly dissipated without any warning.
They shattered into countless pieces and then evaporated into the vast space inside the church.
The mysterious human figure also dissipated, as if it had merged with the shattered and melting mist...
In the upper city, in the alleys where bloody flesh masses of strange and terrifying shapes are piled up.
The hideous mass of flesh stopped expanding and rising at some point and stood motionless, like a postmodern surreal statue.
But this solidification only lasted for a few seconds. The bloody mountain of flesh suddenly squirmed, shrank and condensed at an extremely fast speed, and finally became a size similar to that of a human.
"Gulu..."
Along with a disgusting sticky and slippery sound, the ball of flesh that originally soared into the sky turned into a middle-aged man with pale skin, tall and thin figure, and a mean face.
"The Secret Saint", Fasti.
“Ahem… What the hell is that thing that can release such a strong divine impact?!”
He was hunched over and coughed a few times. His already pale face became even paler. He seemed to have suffered some serious injury that was not easily visible from the outside and became a little weak.
"Moreover, it was a divinity that I had never seen before. I didn't even know how to defend myself... It was a close call. I almost lost control... Damn it, how could a mere 'budding' vampire have such a thing?"
As a legendary powerful being of the fourth realm, although he does not possess divinity himself, with his deep understanding of the spiritual system, he can also evade, defend against or weaken attacks and interference at the divine level to a certain extent.
But there is a prerequisite, that is, the incoming divine attack must be of a type that he is familiar with, otherwise he will have no way to start and can only resist it with willpower.
And the divinity released after the glass apple shattered was something he had never seen before!
"No, this matter is more serious than I originally thought. I have to... huh?!"
He muttered in a deep voice with a hint of fear and shock in his voice, and his body suddenly paused.
"and many more……"
As if he had noticed something, he quickly turned his head in one direction, his eyes widened in horror:
"The divine being from the realm of Decay... an apostle of the Sunset Spiritual Society?! Damn it, I actually lured that guy here!"
A look of panic immediately appeared on the saint's thin face. He hurriedly swung his right arm, creating a crack in the space around him that revealed a strange glow.
Without even a second thought, he went in and immediately disappeared on the spot.
Less than three seconds after the void crack healed itself, the position of the "Secret Saint" Fastiyuan...
Suddenly, a thick, yellow mist appeared.
They gathered together at a rapid speed and turned into an illusory halo.
In the very center of this halo, there is a vague figure.
"…ran away? Really fast."
An unreal, inhuman voice came out from the warm yellow light, and it was impossible to tell the tone of the voice.
The hazy figure swayed, and seemed to turn its head to look at the original location of the void crack:
"Walking in a secret realm... a smelter in the realm of 'Chaos'? He could also be a saint... no wonder he can escape so well."
“Snap!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a crack appeared again in the same space.
Rather than being "smashed", it seemed more like some external force had torn the scabbed scar apart to create another identical wound.
Gazing at the strange and restless outlines and colors in the cracks, the figure in the halo did not hesitate, and directly broke and decomposed, with all the fragments drilling into it.
Then, they dispersed in all directions and went deep into every corner of that mysterious place, as if searching for something.
In the cracks, those terrifying, twisted and strange shapes scattered in all directions at the same time like disturbed hornets, flying around in panic.
It seemed to be avoiding those fragments of warm yellow light.
After a few seconds, the crack that was broken for the second time also shrank and healed on its own.
The alley, which was not well lit, regained its tranquility.
======================
There will be another chapter later, and it may not be uploaded before twelve o'clock, but it's still there.
Chapter 280 You have a new call
On the edge of Upper Town, near Imperial University.
A streak of emerald green light streaked across the ground and rushed towards the northern part of the campus.
But as time went on, it moved slower and slower, as if the power behind it was gradually weakening.
Finally, before entering the Imperial University, it could no longer exist and shattered with a "pop", like a bursting soap bubble.
A slender and tall figure emerged from it.
"what!"
Bernice fell to the ground with a "bang" and let out a cry of pain.
But she didn't care about the pain in her body. Instead, she hurriedly got up from the ground and ran desperately towards the Imperial National University which was not far away.
Just now, in order to escape, she overdrew her spiritual and physical strength and activated the "Escape into the Earth" that can cross several kilometers.
This brought her condition to the lowest point, and now her body was so weak that she had almost no strength left.
If you relax your tense nerves even a little, you will fall into coma immediately.
But she still forced her legs to move and ran towards the Imperial National University, which meant safety.
“Haha…haha…haha…”
She was breathing heavily, the smell of blood rising from her throat and the heavy feeling of fatigue all over her body made her eyes go dark, her mind became confused, and she almost lost the ability to think.
At this moment, Bernice was just running along the road out of the instinct for survival. There was no meaningful thought or plan in her confused mind.
"If only we could get to that place... to that place..."
Driven by this thought, she limped and ran very quickly towards the university's outer wall which was only a hundred meters away.
The chill of the night penetrated her skin and seeped into her bones, making her body weaker and weaker.
"Pfft!"
Suddenly her foot stepped on a bump, which made her trip and fall forward. She didn't even have the strength to scream.
"Hoo! —Hoo! —Hoo! ... I must ... stand up ... otherwise ... I will die ... I will die ..."
Exerting all her strength, Bernice raised her upper body with great difficulty, and suddenly saw a dark shadow appear in front of her.
"……Well?"
Subconsciously, she raised her head and looked forward, but due to weakness and lack of oxygen, her vision was filled with a black veil of darkness and she could not see any details at all.
"That's terrible. Looks like he's in some pretty dangerous trouble."
The tender, ethereal voice, like the sound of nature, floats into my ears.
"One... one zero five... huh..."
Bernice, who had reached her limit, suddenly relaxed after hearing the voice. The black blocks in her vision spread rapidly, and she completely passed out in an instant.
Endless darkness descended immediately.
……
…………
……
In the tree house in Beiyuan Grove.
Donna sat on a rattan chair next to a small wooden coffee table, stroking her soft dark green hair with one hand while flipping through a textbook spread out on her knees.
Tomorrow is Sunday, still a day off, so there is no need to get up too early.
Although Donna tried her best to maintain a good schedule of going to bed early and getting up early even on holidays, so many things happened today that it was difficult for her to calm down and sleep.
Therefore, she decided to take advantage of the opportunity to review the knowledge she had missed while she was still energetic.
——Originally, these were the contents of this afternoon's discussion, but I was so engrossed in playing with Bernice that I didn't even think about this. I can only make up for it now.
Yes, it's just a joke! Absolutely no other intention!
"Xiaoyao is out too... He hasn't come back yet so late, what is he doing?"
After analyzing and summarizing another example, Donna felt tired.
She yawned as she closed the book, then glanced at the deserted and somewhat deserted tree house. She couldn't help but become curious:
"Sister Bernice should be with her, right? What is their relationship? They look similar, but the way they get along with each other doesn't seem like sisters, but more like mother and daughter...hiss!"
Suddenly, she thought of a very shocking possibility!
"Sister Bernice and Xiaoyao are both extraordinary people. Xiaoyao seems to be much stronger. I heard from Teacher Helen that the lifespan of high-level extraordinary people is much longer than that of ordinary people, and they look much younger... They look a bit similar..."
Donna took a breath and couldn't help but sit up straight:
"No way... Xiaoyao, is she sister Bernice's... mother?!"
The moment this idea popped into her mind, she stood up from her chair, threw the book on the coffee table, and widened her eyes in shock.
"The setting sun! This, this, this, this..."
Donna paced back and forth in the tree house excitedly, scratching her scalp frantically with both hands:
"Then, who is it? Who is Sister Bernice's father?! He, he, he..."
"…What are you doing walking around here?"
A familiar pleasant voice came from outside the tree house, interrupting her wandering thoughts.
"Ah...ah!" Donna shuddered and forced a smile on her face, "Xiaoyao, you, you're back..."
She turned her head to look in the direction where the voice came from, but she only saw Qi Ji walking slowly through the illusory door on the wall, but there was no sign of Bernice.
Until the illusory door closed and disappeared, and Bernice did not appear, Donna asked anxiously for some reason:
"...Where's Sister Bernice?"
"She," Qi Ji smiled slyly and grabbed in the air with one hand, "She's here."
A slender and graceful figure with extremely long black hair was "pulled" out from the air, and she grabbed the scruff of the neck and lifted it up in her hand like a cat.
"promise."
Qi Ji swung his hand, and Bernice's body was thrown out. At the same time, a whirlwind appeared out of nowhere, lifted her up and sent her into her room.
"Um...what happened to Sister Bernice?"
Donna keenly noticed that Bernice lay limp and motionless throughout the entire process, her eyes seemed closed, and she seemed to have lost consciousness.
Although Qi Ji looked relaxed and seemed like nothing serious, Donna still felt a little uneasy, so she asked with concern.
"Don't worry, she's fine," Qi Ji gave her a reassuring look and walked towards the rocking chair, "She's just too tired. She'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
"Oh……"
Since the other party said so, although Donna was still a little worried, she felt a little relieved and did not ask any more questions.
Instead, he changed the subject and asked Qi Ji in an unnatural tone:
"Well, it's late. I'm going to take a shower and go to bed... But what clothes should I change into? My clothes are all in the dormitory..."
Qi Ji noticed the stiffness in Donna's tone, but he didn't get bothered.
She looked at the treetops and thought for a while, then she said:
"Then wait a moment, I'll help you pick a few."
As she said this, a brilliant star sand surged out from around her, wrapped around her body, and then disappeared.
A few minutes later, there was another starry sky, and Qi Ji's cloaked figure emerged from it.
And I also have a few sets of clothes on my hands:
"Yes, I got it from your dormitory."
