Chapter 406: Chapter 406: Looting a Burning House (4th Update)

“`

Speaking of which, he was remotely controlling a mechanical beetle with his phone, making it circle around the square.

Anastasia couldn’t help but nod in admiration, “Karsath, I didn’t expect you old bones to still be able to handle such high-tech gadgets!”

Karsath grumbled a bit displeasedly, “Miss Tassia, I hope you understand that as a Necromancer, I am still a youth at just over twelve hundred years old!”

Anastasia snorted disdainfully, “A youth, you say? A youth whose head spouts smoke when he takes a puff of his cigar?”

Fan Mengxue originally didn’t want to laugh, but hearing what Anastasia said, and recalling the image from before, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

With a snort, Fan Mengxue laughed out loud.

Hearing Fan Mengxue’s laughter, Karsath, who had been feeling a bit embarrassed, couldn’t help but feel smug again.

“Ahem, no matter what you say, it seems Miss Mengxue is quite fond of me, right?” Karsath looked at Fan Mengxue full of hope.

Of course, this hopeful expression could only be discerned from the two dancing flames in his eye sockets.

After spending the past few days together, Fan Mengxue had already become familiar with Karsath’s personality.

Chasing trends, flirting at every turn, rooted in place at the sight of a beautiful woman, and always feeling irresistibly handsome – he was incredibly narcissistic.

These were the most prominent traits of Karsath.

As Anastasia put it, it was a good thing his sect had perished at the hands of the Church in the middle ages; otherwise, even if they had survived to the present day, he would have infuriated them to death.

Thus, Fan Mengxue responded with a polite smile and discreetly shifted a little further away.

Now Karsath truly felt awkward.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly uttered a light “Huh?”

“Huh, aren’t those the Dark Druids?” Karsath pointed at the image of the Dark Druid High Priest To Ran and his company on the screen.

Anastasia looked and couldn’t help but frown.

“To Ran and his bunch have such nerve? To actually stroll around in the Sacred Square?”

Karsath curled his lip, “These guys aren’t like us; they all worship the Force of Nature, and if they don’t use it, they’re no different from ordinary people! Naturally, they aren’t afraid of the Church of Light’s checks! But I am curious, what are these guys doing here?”

Just as Karsath said, To Ran had brought a group of his followers to the Sacred Square.

Their purpose was simple: they wanted to see if there was an opportunity to exploit.

Compared to other forces and their deep hatred for the Church of Light, the Dark Druids didn’t have such strong animosity. This time, they purely wanted to take advantage of the chaos and pocket some benefits.

However, after To Ran had made a round, he didn’t find anything unusual and couldn’t help feeling somewhat disdainful.

David, watching from a distance, was fixedly staring at To Ran, whispering into his button intercom, “It seems like the Dark Druids. These guys showing up too, it seems the situation is getting more complicated!”

The bearded man, busy tending to his business, smiled and nodded to a customer. But when he turned around, he whispered, “This affair has startled even the most hidden of the dark forces. Continue to observe, especially for any members of the Dark Council!”

“Yes!”

David responded, quickly gulping down the last of his sandwich, and was about to stand up when,

a low chant began to drift out from the Church of Light’s grand cathedral.

David was momentarily stunned, then his eyes widened in surprise.

Not just him, everyone in the square was taken aback.

Because the chant was astonishingly beautiful, as if… there were truly angels murmuring.

“`

A faint holy light began to rise from the ground, gradually ascending from the statue standing in the square, while the chanting became clearer and clearer.

At that moment, a scream pierced the air.

A well-disguised member of the Dark Races, illuminated by the holy light, started to emit black smoke from all over before dying miserably on the spot.

This scene seemed to serve as a reminder to everyone; many shuddered and expressions of terror appeared on their faces as they turned to flee the square.

But just then, the chanting grew even louder.

The entire Church of Light began to radiate intense holy light.

Countless believers and the congregation, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but fall to their knees in excitement, praying loudly.

Druids like To Ran from the Dark Races also felt a sense of fear; they were just there to join in the excitement, so how had things suddenly taken this turn?

To Ran gritted his teeth and quietly led his people to retreat toward the outskirts of the area.

However, upon reaching the edge of the square, a thin barrier of holy light suddenly appeared.

At the same time, the chanting became deafening as a radiant orb of light appeared atop the Church of Light.

An immensely powerful aura instantly enveloped the entire place.

All the believers and the congregation were moved to tears at this moment.

Whereas people like David and To Ran looked on as if they had lost their kin, their faces pale as they watched the unfolding scene.

The light gradually floated in mid-air.

And behind it, one after another, powerful figures materialized.

In an almost moaning tone, David said, “The Pope, the Chief Judge of the Heretics, Holy Knight of Light, Chief Judge of Light… all these luminaries of the Light have gathered, so this light…”

He dared not continue.

For the conclusion was simply too terrifying.

But at that moment, the light gradually dissipated, revealing a young man radiating an almost tangible holy light, with an exceedingly handsome face and two orbs of holy light burning in his eyes.

This man looked down upon everyone in the square, a smile of superiority appearing on his lips as he spoke softly, “God said, ‘Let there be light!’”

Upon his command, countless holy lights rose, and all the believers and the congregation felt themselves become younger and stronger.

This revelation made them fanatically devoted to the man.

But those tainted with the aura of darkness were not so fortunate.

For instance, To Ran, who was enveloped by a mass of holy light so powerful that it almost completely eradicated his Force of Nature.

Luckily, To Ran reacted quickly enough to escape, though not without injury.

However, his underlings weren’t as lucky; most of them didn’t even manage to scream before they were annihilated by the holy light into oblivion.

This discovery made To Ran tremble all over, but he didn’t dare look back, instead running away frantically.

Because he suddenly recalled a legend, a profoundly terrifying legend. freewёbnoνel.com

Meanwhile, in the black business car, Karsath and Anastasia, among others, all stared blankly at the man exuding superiority on their phone screens.

Suddenly, the man turned his head to glance at the screen.

Crack.

The phone screen shattered, and a few wisps of holy light shot through the air towards Karsath.
