Chapter 1375

On the other side.

The elderly priest's face now showed a trace of despair, "I made so many preparations! Prepared to suppress the outbreak of her constitution... I never thought that in the end, I still couldn't make it in time."

The elderly priest clenched his fists, gripping the cross, silently praying within.

But he himself knew the situation was extremely dire, for he could clearly feel the church's barriers around him gradually weakening.

In the end, they shattered into fragments.

Countless demonic shadows spread from all directions, their target the room behind the priest.

The priest stared blankly at it all; even though he knew that if he stepped aside, these... demons would not care for him, he refused to do so.

"May the Lord protect us!"

The elderly priest murmured to himself, preparing to welcome death.

At the very moment the priest made his decision, a brilliant light suddenly erupted, and a radiant banner tore through the air.

Scorching crimson lotus flames spread outward in all directions.

In an instant, the demons were swept clean away.

Joan of Arc appeared before the elderly priest.

She held the banner, her entire body radiating dazzling light, as if crimson flames burned around her—those demons spreading toward her were obliterated in an instant by the radiance.

Her entrance was too sudden and overwhelming; in an instant, all her enemies were crushed beneath her.

The elderly priest was now stunned, staring blankly at Joan of Arc's back, his lips trembling slightly, even doubting he was hallucinating.

At this moment, Joan of Arc held the crimson lotus banner, her bearing heroic and majestic, truly possessing an unmatched elegance.

"So strong... overwhelming power!"

Especially when the priest recalled Joan of Arc's name, his brow twitched several times, his lips moving, "... Could it really be the reincarnation of the Holy Maiden?"

The guild was now in an uproar.

My Sister Is Not Cute: "WTF..."

Xiao Tongtong: "WTF..."

Sakata Ginji: "WTF..."

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Cat Clan: "One strike wiped out all the demons..."

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Cat Clan: "At first I thought those worthy of the name 'demon' would have tremendous combat power."

I never expected them to be surprisingly weak."

Wugeng Liuli's lips twitched several times; she was genuinely shocked and taken aback.

After all, she had once traveled to the Demon High School world and clashed with demons from that world.

She knew well just how terrifying and powerful those... true demons truly were.

If not for the game mode's immunity to all damage, even someone as strong as her would have faced serious trouble facing demons from the Demon High School world.

Tony Is Not the Richest: "... I'm shocked too! Demons shouldn't be weaker than vampires, right?"

Tony Stark also looked utterly baffled, speechless.

But Su Han's memory copy contained no content about demons; the key issue is that Su Han's content included descriptions of Death Apostles.

Vampires are so powerful, yet demonic power is so weak—this is a joke, right? Wei Bo: "... I think this is perfectly reasonable."

Wei Bo: "Don't forget one thing—our world! Death Apostles are a dire threat."

But demons have little reputation... which precisely indicates demons have little impact on... reality."

Little impact on the real world.

Then it's perfectly normal for demons to be weak.

Tony Is Not the Richest: "Makes perfect sense! Admirable."

Just as everyone was discussing furiously, Joan of Arc closed the guild video.

Miss Xia Shizi: "... Actually, right now I'm only concerned about one thing."

Su Xiao Xiao: "What's that?"

Miss Xia Shizi: "How strong is Miss Joan of Arc's combat power? Could she match a true Heroic Spirit?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "... This question is hard to answer."

Bai Hu Zi: "Gulalala! Why is this hard? Based on the combat ability Joan of Arc just displayed—she surpasses the Servants in the memory copy released by the Guild Leader... she's likely on par with, or even exceeds, the enhanced version of Alexander."

Su Xiao Xiao: "... You're mistaken about one thing, Grandpa Bai Hu. If you compare her purely to Servants, Joan of Arc's strength naturally exceeds them."

Su Xiao Xiao: "But what Miss Xia Shizi just asked was about Heroic Spirits."

Not Servants."

Bai Jing Heizi: "..."

: "..."

Aisi Desi: "Is there a big difference between Heroic Spirits and Servants?"

Wei Bo: "The difference is very significant."

You can think of Servants as avatars of Heroic Spirits!"

Joan of Arc: "Enough. This issue is largely resolved."

But now I've encountered a new problem..."

Master Hou Jue: "New problem? What problem? Didn't you already solve the demons?"

Marquis Wo Ban frowned slightly, his eyes flickering as he pondered: Did eliminating the small ones summon the big ones?

A tremendously powerful great demon has come to trouble Joan of Arc... the old marquis's lips curled slightly, his eyes gleaming with wolfish light.

It's been a while since I last faced a strong opponent; sparring daily with guild members has become utterly boring—I've memorized all their tricks.

If Joan of Arc truly encounters a great demon, I'd be interested in stepping in.

It wasn't to help Joan of Arc; I was just bored and wanted to fight.

Joan of Arc: "... The old priest is now asking me to adopt Carine."

The old man is the Hou Jue: "..."

The Marquis Wo Ban's battle lust within his chest was completely extinguished.

He clicked his tongue but said nothing, watching silently.

The Symbol of Peace: "... This is indeed a considerable trouble."

Let the World Feel Pain: "She saved her life! That's already quite remarkable... Even if the old priest asks you to adopt her, you have no reason to accept."

Kayaba Akihiko: "If you take her in now, it means adding a burden."

"It will also be troublesome if you want to travel in the future!"

"But the key issue is... if you do not adopt that little girl."

"Then her constitution will inevitably attract demons again."

"This is merely treating the symptom, not the root cause! Moreover, why are you two butting in? No one asked you to adopt Carine."

Let the World Feel Pain: "..."

Kayaba Akihiko: "......"

【: The New Year is coming! I've been very busy these past two days.

Super busy! I'll try my best to maintain updates.

But today's update will definitely be very late! I'm very sorry.
