Chapter 2829: Zhong Lou Lovers - Galinna

Without any hesitation, the three thirteenth-ring sorcerers belonging to the church cast thaumaturgy at the same time. After the thunder fell and the Sky Blade slashed, "Nightmare Witch" Miss Maria blew a breath at the insect, and the soul storm in the phantom dream swept past, and the "paradox insect" that was flying tremblingly disintegrated in the air.

Although when the paradox insect appeared over the city for the first time more than a month ago, the church had no way to deal with it. But after so long preparation, a single insect was no longer a fatal threat.

"Well... it seems that we really don't need help."

Miss Sylvia on the roof took her eyes back from the falling insect shell, but found that Xia De's expression was still serious.

"What's wrong?"

"I thought that insect was the 'Guardian' I had seen, but it seems it wasn't."

He frowned suddenly, and the witches and girls on the roof were also surprised to look at the direction of the Golden Music Hall again. Because the sound of *buzz, buzz* sounded again, and this time the sound was lower but seemed to have more power.

The sound of *buzz, buzz* made the ground vibrate slightly, and the power from the deep underground that could not be ignored made people suffocate before it appeared.

The green miasma that divided time and space did not dissipate but merged with the white fog, making the city under the night sky even more blurred. At some moment, Galinna beside Xia De even thought she saw that what was in front of her was not the city night view, but the forest sea in midsummer.

The boundary of the city's time and space seemed to be completely broken at this moment, so under everyone's nervous gaze, a brand new paradox insect drilled out from under the ground.

The size of this insect was only about the same as a normal person, the color of the insect shell was deeper, and there was even a layer of complex patterns attached to it.

It was immediately affected by the divine ritual under the starry sky after flying out of the ground, but its body just shook and then returned to that illusory state. While being attacked by thaumaturgy from all around, the insect instead cast spells on the surroundings.

The harsh sound of *buzz* was no longer the vibration of insect wings, but the sound from the insect's mouthparts. A transparent air bubble then shrouded the insect, and all the thaumaturgy that hit the air bubble were bounced back, and even the "Sunlight Gun" thrown by Iluna in her spare time was bounced back.

"This paradox insect can cast spells!"

"Law - Stability!"

Dark golden ripples spread, and Iluna, riding a skeleton horse, greeted it in the air. The power of the witch's secret technique spread to the surroundings of that insect, but was immediately offset by the invisible unstable time fluctuation around it.

The thirteenth-ring sorcerers who gathered around wanted to help Iluna, but only made the ancient paradox insect temporarily unable to fly to a higher place. Thunder and sword light had no effect on it, but the griffin that joined the battle rashly fell straight to the ground. Listening to the sound, that fall should be quite heavy.

"This time I need your help."

Xia De on the roof said to the duchess beside him, his right hand had already taken out the small bottle filled with essence:

"The 'Guardian' has appeared, so this is a chance. I can't compare with it in terms of time power, but Iluna has just proven that the power of balance is useful for stabilizing time - I want to open that lock. You are only twelfth-order now, but you should be able to persist for a while."

The night wind made the witch's red hair float behind her like flames. She pointed at herself in surprise and then nodded quickly:

"To tell the truth, I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time."

She didn't understand the second half of Xia De's sentence.

"But with just these essences, is it enough to open the lock?"

Miss Sylvia asked worriedly, Xia De nodded, and his fingers took out the bright golden "Angel Elixir" again. This potion of Priest Augustus, combined with the essence,

Miss Sylvia asked with concern, and Xia De nodded, his fingers pinching out that bottle of bright golden "Angel Elixir." This potion from Priest Augustus, combined with the essence, was enough for him to open a Mystery Lock. Although he hadn't intended to save this opportunity for the end, he hadn't expected to use it so soon:

"This will be fine, Miss Sylvia, don't easily join the battle here. If anything happens later, prioritize retreating."

Xia De said, gulping down the essence in the bottle. Ever since that "poisoning" in the Randall Valley, he hadn't done this for a long time:

"Are you ready?"

Galina Cavendish smiled at her lover:

"Of course, this time it's finally my turn!"

A golden thunderbolt streaked across the miasma above everyone's heads, and Iluna, catching this thunder in the sky, fell toward the insect like a demigod from ancient legends.

The skeleton horse disintegrated in the air, and she hit the shield on the outside of the insect with the precision as if she could fly. The thunderous roar only sounded late at this moment, and in the thunder that followed in the sky, Iluna flew backward while spinning, but was fortunately caught in time by Miss Maria, the "Nightmare Witch."

But Iluna's efforts were not in vain; the Paradox Worm's shield had shattered. So, although she lost her mount, the "Blade of the Firmament," who was flying on her own, slashed down with a sword, splitting the insect in two within the sword marks made of starlight, but it immediately recovered to its original state as if time had reversed.

Iluna blew the bone whistle to summon her mount again, just trying to feel the anger of the Battle of Moon Bay, letting herself transform into thunder and charge again, but at this moment she heard the sound of a bell, only it wasn't the time for the clock to chime.

Dong~ Dong~ Dong~

In the increasingly loud bell sound, dazzling spiritual light soared into the sky on a nearby roof. In that spiritual light, a towering ancient clock tower rose from the ground.

The outer wall of the clock tower was peeling off, and even the clock tower itself was tilted. And on the top of the clock tower, Xia De and Galina Cavendish faced each other with smiles. He reached out his right hand to her, and the latter picked up the hem of her skirt and bowed slightly before placing her right hand on his.

So the handsome knight pulled hard, and the beautiful duchess took two steps forward in her high heels and was embraced into his arms. The gale at the top of the tilted clock tower blew up his clothes and her bright red hair, and two pairs of eyes stared at each other—

"Thorn of the Love God!"

The silver thunder spear was thrown into the sky by Xia De's left hand, then the thunder fell straight down, and the lightning instantly annihilated the two people on the spire of the clock tower.

The people of the church, who didn't expect this scene, recognized that this was the Mystery Lock of the "God-Caller." Just as their eyes shifted to the place where the spiritual light was gushing, the Paradox Worm slammed into the clock tower that appeared because of the Mystery Lock. In the loud roar, the clock tower was smashed into two by the giant insect.

The already tilted clock tower collapsed completely in the blink of an eye, but the falling bricks and stones disappeared without a trace before hitting the ground.

Click!

The sound of clock hands turning came from the wind. The insect that destroyed the clock tower looked up to a higher place, and golden stairs seemed to extend downward from the moon level by level. The moonlight illuminated the figure walking out from the moon, holding a staff in his right hand, and the bright red tailcoat looked like flames or blooming flowers under the moonlight.

The moonlight seemed to penetrate his head from behind and radiate from his left eye, and in his opened right eye, the dark golden holy emblem symbolizing the "Ancient God - Chaos Witch" flashed by. At this moment, he even vaguely felt that the passage of the 【Witch Council】 could be opened by him at any time.

This was the first time Xia De used the Mystery Lock to merge with a contemporary Great Witch, and this was also the first time Galina had touched Xia De's soul so deeply.

Her body, which itself symbolized "perfection," merged into Xia De's body without any hindrance, and even her soul seemed to turn into nourishment, tightly fitting Xia De's soul.

Entering a brand-new body, the essence of the witch's soul felt no discomfort at all. It was also perfect, and perhaps even more perfect than her original body.

The fiery soul made Galina once think that her soul was sticking to the sun. And when she carefully felt it in the intoxication of the two becoming one, she realized that the power felt by her soul made her tremble uncontrollably.

She understood what the person she chose really was, and also understood why he could still use the witch's power even though he wasn't a witch. For such a pure and great soul, she even felt that her contact at this moment was a blasphemy... but she was willing to blaspheme this purity and beauty; no one could refuse this, no one...

Dong~ Dong~ The bottom of the long staff tapped the golden stairs twice. The power of the contemporary Great Witch was slightly different from Adele of the Doomsday Era, and even the essence was slightly different. Chaos represented the disorderly mystery and the unity of opposites, and its indescribable essence symbolized the most mysterious power among the thirteen ancient gods.

Although the power of Galina, a 12th-tier Great Witch, was far less than the power of the demigod Adele, he felt that this power was really just right at this moment.

The tapped golden stairs spread ripples outward. As the giant insect soaring into the sky touched these ripples, its body, which looked illusory due to time instability, switched between "non-existent" and "existent" several times in just one second, and finally solidified completely.

"Decree—"

After easily mobilizing the power of the Great Witch of Balance, Xia De held his staff high in front of the moon, and Iluna, understanding, also held up her dark golden scales at the same time:

"—Stabilize!"

A "Dong~" sound, like a large bell ringing in everyone's ears, represented the power of "order and stability" in the form of miracle elements, completely clearing away the whisper elements remaining after the relic disappeared.

Under the cold moonlight, even the green miasma remaining in the city was disappearing rapidly. And more importantly, the Paradox Worm under the moonlight that wanted to slam into the golden stairs again actually trembled in the air and then fell straight downward.
