At the moment of the blood moon rising at noon, Anos in the Cathedral of St. Cecilia felt something and turned to look out the window.
There was a huge slanted window on the high wall in the center of Santa Cecilia Cathedral. Normally, sunlight poured down from above, giving the huge cross a soft golden glow.
At this moment, the warm sunlight was stained with a light crimson and fell on the cross, as if there were traces of blood on the cross!
Anos’ expression became serious. He stood up and was about to walk out but stopped at the church door.
Luo Mi trotted after him, confused: “What’s wrong?”
Anos stretched out his hand with a sullen face. His fingertips touched the air in front of him, causing layer upon layer of light white ripples, as if a dot was touching the surface of empty water.
The ripples started from Anos’s fingertips and spread throughout the church without any weakening, converging somewhere at the back of the church.
Anos pursed his lips and said, “There’s a sealing barrier, using the three chosen ones as a medium, connected to the divine magic array of the entire St. Cecilia Cathedral, sealing us all in the church.”
Luo Mi’s mouth dropped open, and he quickly realized: No wonder the Black Wing Lord had given up the three Chosen Ones! No, it should be said that he had been planning this for a long time and had been deliberately putting on a show in front of him!
Archbishop Valentine also came over, stretched out his hand to sense it, and frowned: “Even His Majesty the Angel can’t remove it?”
“It will take time.” Anos said briefly, “Breaking it by force will lead to the death of the three chosen ones.”
After rescuing the Chosen Ones, Anos focused on continuing to pursue the high-level demon and only conducted a simple examination of the Chosen Ones – his divine arts level was not high to begin with, so it would be better to leave a more detailed examination to the bishop who was proficient in divine arts.
What puzzled Anos was that the “seed” planted by the enemy in the body of the Chosen One was so perfectly connected to the divine magic circle in the Cathedral of St. Cecilia, and the magic circle was perfectly tampered with into a sealing barrier, that it showed that the enemy was very familiar with the divine magic circle in the Cathedral of St. Cecilia.
But this shouldn’t be the case, because the divine magic array of St. Cecilia Cathedral was modified by Anos himself!
Although Anos’s divine power level was average, he forced himself to memorize many methods of setting up magic circles in the Holy City. How did the mysterious man determine which one he was using?
This not only proved that the other party knew him very well but also proved that the other party’s divine power level was much higher than his!
These thoughts briefly swirled in Anos’ mind before being relegated to the depths of his heart. The more important thing right now was to find a way to break the barrier.
Although he didn’t know what was going on, Anos had a hunch that something bad was going to happen.
Reinhardt and the other Silver Knights, as well as the other nuns and priests in the church, all tried to enter, but were blocked by the barrier. Only a few servants without any supernatural powers were able to enter or exit.
Archbishop Valentine immediately ordered them to seek assistance from other churches, then made the sign of the cross on his chest and said, “I will check on the status of the Chosen Ones to see if I can sever the power within them.”
Anos nodded, then he closed his eyes and continued to look for flaws in the barrier.
Luo Mi looked around and found that there was nothing for him to do.
It would be better not to disturb Anos at this time… When Luo Mi was about to go back and sit down, a light bulb suddenly flashed in his head: This barrier seems to use divine magic array and holy light to seal these people from the Holy See in turn, so will it be useful to him, a demon?
Luo Mi blinked and tried to walk out of the church.
One step, two steps.
He passed through the place where Anos could not pass without any hindrance.
It really works!
Luo Mi was delighted but then felt his wrist being stuck.
He turned around and found that it was the white feather bracelet Anos gave him that was stuck.
Anos opened his eyes and looked at him in surprise but soon understood: “The sealing barrier only targets the power of holy light, and the bracelet contains my holy light power.”
“Does that mean I can just take off the bracelet and go out?” Luo Mi guessed, “Is there anything I can do?”
Anos pursed his lips, and after a moment he said, “But without the protection of the bracelet, you would be in greater danger.”
I still have the Black Feather Bracelet… Luo Mi swallowed the words: “If anything happens, I will run back as soon as possible. Don’t forget that I can turn into a transparent state and fly now.”
Anos said seriously: “No, without the protection of the bracelet, you will be dominated by high-level demons if you encounter them, and there will be no chance of escape!”
Luo Mi smacked his lips, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: “I have an idea, wait a moment.”
He ran to the nearest empty confessional, took off the White Feather Bracelet, put it into the system warehouse, then put his hand in his pocket, ran back through the barrier, and took the bracelet from the system warehouse.
Sure enough, the sealing barrier could not seal the system space!
If the system space could accommodate living things, he could even take Anos out with him!
Anos watched Luo Mi take out the bracelet from his pocket and was a little surprised: “How did you do that?”
Luo Mi lied, “I tried to wrap it with magic power, and unexpectedly it worked.”
If Anos asked him if he could wrap the whole person, Luo Mi planned to fool him by saying that he didn’t have enough magic power.
Fortunately, Anos seemed to be aware of his strength and only showed a hint of joy. He then instructed: “Use Angel’s Advent immediately when you reach the palace.”
The material of the white feather bracelet was Anos’ feather, and it could undoubtedly be used to cast the word magic “Angel’s Advent”.
Luo Mi did not refuse, nodded to Anos, and ran out of the church.
….
It was clearly noon, but a blood-red full moon hung high in the sky, covering the entire city of Troon with a layer of crimson gauze, making it look weird and terrifying.
Luo Mi ran a few steps on the street but felt that this was a bit slow. He looked around and found a rickshaw on the corner. He hurried forward and said, “To the palace.”
The driver leaned against the rickshaw, motionless, with most of his face covered by his hat, making it impossible to see his expression.
Luo Mi was stunned for a moment, a chill running down his spine. He approached cautiously and took off the driver’s hat.
The driver stared at him with his unfocused eyes, his face showing an extremely strange expression, which showed pain and fear, joy and tranquility as if he was having a beautiful nightmare.
Wisps of black air swirled in his eyes, finally flowing down with the tears and quickly dissipating into the air.
Luo Mi was startled and tried to stretch out his fingers, then breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he is still alive.
He didn’t dare to disturb the driver, so he put his hat on the cart and continued to drive forward for a while.
Luo Mi discovered that all the pedestrians on the roadside were like the coachman just now, maintaining their previous posture and falling into a deep and dark dream. Only tears mixed with black air were flowing continuously and drifting away.
Luo Mi also saw that the servants who had been sent by Archbishop Valentine to seek help from other churches were in the same situation.
No wonder Luo Mi felt something was wrong after leaving the cathedral. It turned out that the city of Troon had become extremely quiet!
There was a market near the Basilica of Santa Cecilia, and the noise and bustle didn’t stop until late at night. How could it be as quiet as it was now with only the sound of the wind?
What on earth was Lord Blackwing doing? Was he trying to kill everyone in Troon City?
A chill rose in Luo Mi’s heart.
