Chapter 2215: Xia De's

"Good morning, Mr. Lovgood. Looking at it this way, it is highly likely an Angel-level relic, but it is not certain what it is. We suspect it is the Angel-level relic 【Tower of Profanity】."

The twelve-ring lady leading the Peace Church had rain automatically avoid the top of her head:

"Also, we just found the clock tower guards and mechanics and others on the way. Don't look at me like that, they were really discovered in the alley. They were all stunned, and now they are resting in the carriage behind. It seems someone anticipated that something would happen here, so they transferred them out."

"In this way, it is highly likely not cultists. Is it that 'God-Caller'? Or the new arrival from the New Continent rumored recently?"

The Twelfth Tier High Priest of the Nature Church, wearing white sacrificial robes, also led the first team dispatched by the church to arrive here. Nearly one hundred sorcerers from the four churches were methodically preparing for a major battle around the clock tower.

With the level of whisper elements currently displayed here, no one below the high ring was qualified to intervene in this matter. But this was the city center of Moon Bay City. The church needed to ensure that not too many citizens observed here, and once the handling failed, how to isolate the relic's power from spreading to the whole city.

"Good morning, Father Giles."

The three Twelfth Tier sorcerers from the Peace Church, the Creation Church, and the Dawn Church all greeted the old priest of the Nature Church, and the latter looked up at the tower:

"Since I joined the cathedral, except for that matter 30 years ago, I have never encountered such a serious problem occurring in the city."

"Father Giles, has Mr. Kamora, the 'Beast Hunter', not arrived yet? With just us, I'm afraid we can't control the situation."

The lady from the Peace Church asked. Father Giles looked at the intersection outside the square behind him:

"That gentleman originally arrived with us, but heard on the way that a big figure from the Sun Church was also coming to check the situation, so he went to greet them."

"Who else could be more important than the Thirteenth Tier sorcerers?"

While speaking, the carriage team of the Sun Church had already driven into the square. The team stopped on the outskirts of the square, and the sorcerers jumped out of the carriages one by one. In the lead carriage, first the "Beast Hunter" of the Nature Church and the two local Twelfth Tier sorcerers of the Sun Church appeared, followed by a strange white-robed priest who clearly looked like a Northerner.

Finally, the eighteen-year-old girl with brown long hair jumped out of the carriage wearing waterproof cowhide boots and arrived in the rain, looking up at the clock tower with a serious face.

Iluna narrowed her eyes slightly, observing the black tentacle-like things entangled on the outer surface of the clock tower, as well as the gradually obvious human-shaped indentations. Having dealt with 【Malicious Chain Curse Letters】 with Xia De in Tobesk, she immediately guessed what this was:

"It is the Angel-level relic 【Corpse in the Wall】."

"Miss Beiya."

"Miss Iluna Beiya."

"The Chosen One."

"Hello, Miss Beiya."

The Twelfth Tier sorcerers from the four churches other than the Sun Church expressed their respects one after another. As the only Chosen One currently among the True God Churches, and as someone who frequently played a decisive role in the major events of the past year, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na was indeed worthy of such courtesy.

But she just nodded, and golden thunder jumped in her lowered right hand. At the same time as another white lightning flashed overhead, her raised right hand had already condensed that huge "Sunlight Spear" amidst the rumbling thunder.

Everyone made room for Iluna to test. Just as Iluna wanted to make a throwing motion, she looked up at the top of the clock tower again, and amidst the silver moonlight that gradually bloomed in the rainy sky like ink, she canceled the spell and crushed the thunder in her hand:

"This is... Oh! Close your eyes quickly! Turn around quickly!"

Experienced, she immediately turned around and closed her eyes, while most of the others who reacted slower were still looking up at the sky, so they witnessed the dazzling but gentle moonlight that seemed to be able to illuminate the whole city in the next moment.

At the top of the Belindell Big Ben, facing the black corpse that appeared at the entrance of the viewing platform, Xia De raised the sword and staff in his hands and crossed them together.

The Fate Ring rotated behind him, and all the spirit of his body surged into the two Angel-level relic weapons through his hands. Both 【Night Watcher】 and 【Staff of Yggdrasil】 possessed the effect of enhancing spellcasting. When the sword and staff crossed into a cross, that dazzling, holy silver moonlight erupted at the top of the clock tower in the most powerful posture Xia De had never seen before:

"Light Spell - Silver Moon!"

"Ang~"

The light of the silver moon even made Emilia, who had closed her eyes in advance because she got a hint, feel dazzling. But when the moonlight brushed over her skin like substance, she felt as if she had suddenly soaked into a hot spring to rest after rolling in a mud pit.

She felt that all her other senses were replaced by "vision". The gentle moonlight just blocked in front of her, blocking her from danger. Thus, a decision was suddenly made in her heart. Emilia knew what she really wanted.

The whole sky, which had been raining continuously, was dyed silver in these short five or six seconds.

By the Ta Dun River, Mr. Bernhard, who was exchanging clues with local clansmen, looked in the direction of the clock tower. After seeing the moonlight, he sighed. Xia De had indeed caused trouble again;

At the Member's Club under the Belindell Big Ben, the Great Witch of Fate, who was looking outside from the third-floor window, pursed her lips, worrying about the man's situation;

In the harbor waters, the woman's head floating from underwater watched this scene with a smile, looking forward to a more exciting performance;

At the Moon Bay train station, Tifa, who had just left the station and met the maids sent by Miss Belindell to greet them, suddenly looked at the city center, and then said to the princesses who were curiously looking at the city rain scene under umbrellas behind her:

"Miss Louisa, Princess Ajelina... look."

They also looked at the top of the clock tower that lit up with light following the black-haired maid's finger. Dorothy, with her left hand on her waist and her right hand holding an umbrella, recognized that moonlight at a glance:

"I said why didn't Xia De come to greet us, so he had other things to do."

"Sister... Sister Dorothy, are we going there?"

Ajelina pulled Dorothy's sleeve and asked in a low voice. Tifa also looked at her. Dorothy, who was actually Lei Qianya, shook her head:

"Don't cause him trouble, let's follow the plan and go to Belindell Manor first. Tifa, you take Miss Jia Lin Na's two maids to the city center to see the situation, but don't get too close."

Many citizens within the city range also observed the strange celestial phenomenon at this moment, but as the rainy clouds that were briefly dyed silver returned to their original colors, the moonlight gradually disappeared as if flowing backward, until the last ray of moonlight at the top of the Belindell Big Ben also disappeared.

"Oh!"

On the viewing platform, Xia De in the rain gasped and knelt on one knee. 【Night Watcher】 fell to the wet ground and no longer glowed. He held 【Staff of Yggdrasil】 with both hands and propped it on the ground to barely keep from falling.

The black mist and those protruding human shapes at the entrance of the viewing platform had disappeared, and there was not even a trace of pitch-black on the wall. On the contrary, now on all the solid surfaces that could be seen on the viewing platform, there was a layer of silver moonlight that was not bright but indeed existed.

Xia De, who looked a bit exhausted, could no longer stand up. The little unicorn beside him, which had also consumed too much, rubbed against him, and then lay down beside him, not even caring that the ground was already soaked.

Emilia hurriedly supported Xia De, barely helping him stand up:

"Did you defeat that thing?"

"Of course not, after all, it is... Angel-level. It was temporarily repelled by me, and now it is wandering at the bottom of the clock tower, and will not come up again in a short time."

Xia De gasped, and the Fate Ring behind him disappeared when the moonlight disappeared. Emilia, who was supporting him, could feel his body trembling. The elf girl, who felt heartache, nodded, wanting to ask if he carried holy water or other magic potions, but before she could speak, she saw an astonished expression on Xia De's face.

"How..."

She couldn't speak, and looked down following Xia De's gaze. Only then did she see a slender crow feather piercing through Xia De's heart position, almost poking her arm.

Blood flowed from the wound and was then diluted by the rain. Xia De opened his mouth:

"Run."

He fell to the ground, and the splashed rain wet Emilia's already soaked skirt. The blonde elf looked at this scene incredibly, watching Xia De's vitality pass away at a very fast speed.

In another thunderclap illuminating the top of the tower, amidst the rumbling sound at high altitude, he turned into a corpse.

"Ang~"

Tears flowed from the azure eyes of the weak little beast. It struggled to nudge Xia De's corpse lying on the ground. Finding that Xia De was really motionless, it let out another sad cry, put its head on the back of Xia De's corpse, and then closed its eyes and didn't move either.

The rain wet the pure white fur of the unicorn, and the slightly glowing fur swayed gently with the wind. The scene before them gave people a feeling of heartbreak and sadness from the bottom of their hearts.

But Emilia could not feel the desolation of this scene, because she felt that her soul seemed to have floated out of her body. She looked at this scene like a bystander, looking at herself standing in the rain, watching her hero who had died.

At this moment, she felt that she had also died.

The sound of wings flapping~ was exceptionally clear even in the sound of rain.

At some unknown time, the black crow standing on the round table of the viewing platform spread its wings and flew high. After landing on the ground not far from Emilia, it transformed into a man with a black crow's head, wearing a black suit and black leather shoes. ===== CHAPTER 2216 =====
