Chapter 4133: Hall Master

The violet flower continued to float forward. Knowing the purpose, Yiluna knew she had grasped the key to this great battle and chased after it even more quickly. In the chaotic and weird space, there seemed to be battles between skin-objects and pseudo-humans everywhere, but these monsters seemed unable to see the flower and did not block its progress.

But they could all see Yiluna. Whether it was skin-objects or pseudo-humans, they had obvious malice toward the living, but after the golden sunlight gun exploded, the skin-objects and pseudo-humans couldn't stop her at all.

Yiluna felt that sometimes she was running in that blood-red city, and sometimes she was running among locked cabinets and empty flesh-and-blood puppet coat hangers. The items left by Miss Feilian couldn't be related to pseudo-humans, so Yiluna focused on the scenery related to the hall while fighting off enemies.

The flower didn't lead her too far; that flower seemed to be able to find the nearest path in the chaotic space. After the post office attached with countless eyes in front of Yiluna disappeared abruptly, the flower finally stopped in front of a crooked metal shelf. The skin-objects and pseudo-humans fighting beside the shelf were melted by the sunlight gun, and Yiluna quickly pulled out the only remaining suitcase on the bottom shelf, but unexpectedly found that the suitcase was locked.

"That's right, if it wasn't locked, the things inside would have long since been taken by the Skinners in the hall."

The flower merged into the black suitcase on its own, and the suitcase opened with a click. Yiluna quickly rummaged through it and found the only item that was glowing slightly among a pile of documents and materials.

"Crystal ball?"

She held the crystal ball, suspecting that this was for Luvia or Bella Belindell to use. She still wanted to find other clues in the suitcase, but a loud noise came from overhead, and then, amidst a sound like fingernails scraping glass, the chaotic overlapping space had serious problems in devouring each other. At the highest point of the blood mist, a black crack unfolded, and outside the crack was the blue sky and white clouds of the material world.

Below the gap, Sister Daifulin, Vanessa, Shivi, and several Church ring-mages were entangling the "Skinner Leader." Its essence was still a Skinner, only more powerful than ordinary Skinners, and the small knife it held, if viewed purely as a relic, definitely had a Sage-level evaluation.

Ms. Eden, the "Sun Emblem," helped Xia De, who was riding Ellie and had Miss Feilian on his shoulder, suppress the "Hall Master."

In Miss Feilian's view, the essence of this thing was just a simple piece of human skin. Although Miss Feilian didn't know why that piece of human skin could be so powerful, Xia De could feel that the power of the 【Great Sin Brand】 was in the opponent's body.

The situation was rapidly tilting toward the human side. In the case of its own home field being invaded by pseudo-humans, even the "Hall Master" could not face the joint attack of the descendant of the 13th-ring angel and Xia De and Ellie. The fire of the sun melted the blood light, and the brilliance of the crimson moon swallowed the power of skin like burning flames.

The appearance of the Hall Master was clearly that of the beautiful girl who led the group of nine to visit the hall. Although it couldn't borrow the power of other skins like the Skinners, the power it possessed itself was powerful enough. It certainly didn't have a ring-mage level, and no one present could distinguish the power system it used.

The 【Great Sin Chain】 could restrain it, but it would also be affected by its power. Being in the hall, it should have been like being in its own maze or even a sublimation language. If it weren't for the plotting of the pseudo-humans, this battle would never have been suppressed like this.

Seeing that it was about to be defeated by the descendant of the angel and the strange man—the latter reminded it of a certain existence it had seen when it was still a normal person—it accepted this defeat, ignored the surrounding battle, and flew toward the gap overhead.

It rushed into the crack and arrived at the material world almost instantly, and Xia De and Ms. Eden followed closely behind.

The red light around them suddenly turned into the dazzling morning sun of spring, and even Ellie narrowed her deep blue eyes. And the fleeing figure originally wanted to fall into the crowd in the park immediately and attach itself to the surface of ordinary people with its own characteristics for disguise. In this way, no one could find it, but a black light that had been waiting on the lake hit its chest.

Subsequently, that ancient girl's human skin and the demon-man who had left the hall at some unknown time fell toward the great lake together.

Their speed was extremely fast. No one in the entire park even realized what had happened in the air; only a few people heard the *thump* of falling into the water.

Ms. Eden and Xia De stood on the deck of the new silent steamship and looked down. Nothing could be seen in the shimmering lake water. Ms. Eden wanted to go into the water, but was stopped by Xia De:

"This matter is like the snow mountain; there is also a demon involved, and I am not sure if the demon's true body has come. If the opponent is at the bottom of the lake, we are falling into a trap if we chase after it now."

The exit of the spatial crack was on the deck, so even if the two were standing here at this moment, it would not arouse suspicion. The Church team still in the core area of the hall didn't know what method they used to enter the interior of this ship, but there were no other arrangements by the Church on the lake.

"Waiting for the result here?"

The blonde Ms. Eden asked.

"Of course not. If the demon succeeds, I'm afraid there will be more serious consequences. I suspect that human skin is the true origin of the 【Skin-Object Hall】. If the demon masters this, I wouldn't be surprised if the hall suddenly turns into an Angel-level relic."

Xia De said, and the petite doll on his shoulder gave a suggestion:

"Angel descendant, you stay here, on one hand to guard against other monsters leaving the 【Skin-Object Hall】, and on the other hand to prepare to meet us. I will go into the water with the God-Caller. Ellie, you go back to help the others and solve that 'Skinner Leader' as soon as possible.

Yiluna Beias should have already obtained the containment item I prepared during the Fifth Era according to my guidance. Among the four cores of the hall, the Sacred Artifact Master has long since disappeared, the Old Man of the Parchment has been sealed by the God-Caller, and after dealing with the Hall Master and the Skinner Leader, it will be almost time to carry out the final containment of this relic."

She didn't mention how to deal with the pseudo-humans, and although Ms. Eden didn't recognize what this doll was at a glance, she thought the idea was good:

"Alright then, you must be careful."

After Xia De jumped off Ellie, the little unicorn also urged Xia De to pay attention to safety, and then drilled into the crack on the deck.

Xia De didn't say anything more, took 【Night Watcher】, and jumped into the lake. The spring sun couldn't completely illuminate the deep bottom of the lake, but the entangled whisper elements and demonic power were so obvious, not to mention the shining 【Night Watcher】 was also pointing the way for him.

The depth of the lake bottom had exceeded the normal level, and some kind of power caused spatial anomalies under the water. And the inexplicably appearing demon-man was clearly prepared. When Xia De approached the battlefield deep at the bottom of the lake while wandering, the dim yellow light symbolizing the power of "Wither" had already bloomed at the bottom of the lake.

Several spears made of dim yellow light pierced the body of the Hall Master, who looked like a young girl. It no longer looked plump like a living person, but was fixed at the bottom of the lake like a withered scarecrow.

And behind the demon-man, who looked like a middle-aged man with an unclear face, appeared a three-meter-high black outline. The black shadow held black chains in its hands, and one end of the chain pierced through the chest of the Hall Master.

The chain was clearly extracting some kind of power, perhaps vast life force, perhaps the power of the Great Sin Brand.

But at this time, the demon-man also heard the sound of Xia De swimming. It kept its body still, and its entire head twisted 180 degrees on the spot to look at Xia De. Although the facial features on the pitch-black face were not clear, Xia De could guess that the opponent was showing a fierce expression.

Xia De then stopped ten meters away from the area illuminated by the dim yellow light. He didn't say anything, just showed the demon-man a piece of parchment scroll torn into pieces in his hand.

The demon-man certainly didn't understand what Xia De meant, but it didn't need to know soon, because it heard a melodious laughter.

It was a woman's laughter, and the sound seemed to appear directly in its ear. The laughter reminded it of the sound of wind chimes at the door of its old house in childhood, reminded it of the sound of bells in the evening when it was studying as a youth, reminded it of the greeting when its wife welcomed it home when it started a family in middle age, reminded it of...

Its head fell off its neck, but strangely, there was no blood oozing from the break between the head and the neck. And accompanied by the death of the body, the huge black shadow floating behind that body swallowed the corpse in one bite.

The black shadow dissipated, and the swallowed corpse was already too withered to be recognized. The power of withering lost control completely as life force was rapidly stripped away. In less than a second, the demon-man was left with only bone residue drifting toward the bottom of the lake, not even giving Xia De a chance to identify its identity.

And from the bone residue, a wisp of black shadow drifted out quickly; that was the power gifted by the demon to the demon-man. But before that black shadow could escape, a cluster of colorful hair appeared from the darkness at the bottom of the lake and entangled with it.

The death of the demon-man also caused all the power that bound the "Hall Master" to disappear. After gaining freedom, the latter wanted to escape from here at the first moment. Too many unexpected opponents had appeared today. It had the confidence to deal with any one of them alone, but it couldn't fight everyone at once.

Space was twisted and changed by its power, but the twisting disappeared quickly, and the stable space imprisoned it like a binding belt. The light on the silver sword illuminated Xia De's face, and Xia De came to the Hall Master.

Looking at it from a close distance, its appearance was not only exactly the same as the girl who led the group to visit the Skin-Object Hall, but also exactly the same as the girl who was whipped by Mrs. Connaught. That face seemed to have infinite changes, and it also seemed that there was nothing on that face. ===== CHAPTER 4134 =====
