“Nyine―Ksuler―Sotos!!”

Listening to the evil call coming from the window, the priest couldn't help but tremble. She clenched the emblems of her hands and muttered a prayer. But that didn't dampen the fear deep in her heart, and the priest opened her eyes and looked around. But all she saw was fear and despair. Even the bishop, who is usually the most calm, is pale at this time. As for those people, their faces were even more pale, and some even fainted on the ground, unconscious. But at this moment no one cared about them, and the only thing people could do was to hide in this temple, praying and waiting in despair.

The priest remembered what had happened, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the uneasy people poured into the temple, asking the Bishop in fear what had happened. Even the Bishop was at a loss for such a question, after all, they had never heard of such a thing. And just when the people of the True Eye Church wanted to advise the people to return to their homes and wait for further development, a nightmare that no one expected began in front of them.

In the dark night, the originally industrious and simple peasants suddenly changed, they screamed as if they were crazy, and then brandished a weapon in their hands to attack the others. In just an instant, the whole town seemed to be a hell. The priest remembered standing at the window, watching as two friends who had been laughing loudly together roared at each other in the blink of an eye, and then one of them waved his machete mercilessly. He cut off his friend's head like this. Then he held his friend's head aloft and laughed maniacally, as if he were showing some trophy.

This scene is playing out everywhere throughout the town. It doesn't matter if it's a man, a woman, an old man, a child. It doesn't matter if the relationship between them is friends, husband and wife, or parent-child. At this moment, it seems that this qiē has no meaning, they are just brutally killing and biting each other. Unleashing unleashed unparalleled malice. And then, these people began to change, and they twisted in the bitter **. Transfigured, transformed into a disgusting, completely unimaginable monster. Then they sang evil prayers that no one could understand. One side began to wander in all directions of the town. Tear all the creatures that come into their sight.

No one knew what was going on, whether it was the townspeople, the bishops, or the paladins. In the face of this situation, it is helpless. Although everyone feared for the safety of their families, now they only dared to stay in the temple and pray for the protection of the gods. Because the bloody reality had shown them that as long as they left this temple, they would either go crazy and become the same kind of monsters. Or you'll fall prey to those monsters. So although they were terrified in their hearts, the people were curled up in a ball at the moment. There is nothing left to do other than pray in front of the idol of the True Eye.

"Great gods, please give us guidance and let us wake up from this nightmare.........

Dressed in black robes, the bishop clutched a large golden book and whispered prayers as he gazed at the idol in front of him. The statue of the True Eye hanging on the walls of the temple emitted a soft white glow, enveloping the entire temple, calming the mood of those who were originally restless. As for those monsters, it seems that there is no way to get close to the temple because of this. While they would surround the temple and call out some evil prayers that no one could understand, that was all, at least for now, the temple was protected by its gods and untainted by the evils. However, no one knows how long it will last. What's more, this is just a temple, and although there is some food and water in storage, it is not enough to last too long. If this continues, what will happen in the end......... No one knows.

"Knock knock! Knock knock!! ”

Suddenly, at this moment, a sharp knock on the door broke the silence in the temple. The believers stood up in horror and stared at the door in front of them with wide eyes. The paladin, who was guarding in front of the temple, immediately raised his weapon, and then a paladin strode to the door, looked out along the doorway, and then turned his head to report.

"It's the Knight of Santa Los!"

"Let him in!!"

Hearing the paladin's report, the bishop was also in good spirits. Just now, he sent a team of paladins to the center of the town in order to annihilate the monsters and liaise with the ruling class here to grasp the current situation. It's just that they haven't responded, which makes the bishop quite worried. Now that I heard that they were finally back, I couldn't help but show a relieved expression.

Soon, the door opened, and immediately after, a tired figure stumbled in. It was a middle-aged paladin, and as the prince charming of many women in the town, the Knight of Santa Lordos used to be a handsome man who was quite eye-catching. But now, his appearance has completely changed. The hair that had been neatly groomed was unkempt like a chicken coop, and the shiny armor was now stained with blood everywhere, making it look unusually wolfish.

"Knight of Santalos, what's going on outside? What about the others? ”

Looking at the appearance of the paladin in front of him, the bishop couldn't help frowning, and then asked in a low voice. Although he still doesn't know what happened outside, he can already see the problem from the fact that Santaros is the only one who has returned. You must know that he sent the most elite knights in the temple, and logically speaking, dealing with those monsters outside should be a common thing for them. But now............

"They're all dead......... They were all dead......... Dead ..............."

Hearing the bishop's inquiry, the paladin hung his head in frustration, and he replied with a weeping as he reached out to cover his face.

"Everybody's crazy, everybody, we're seeing madmen, dead people and monsters. The mayor of the town is also dead, no one is alive, we are all crazy, we are all going to die, everyone is going to die hahahahaha ”

At the end of his speech, the paladin suddenly raised his head, showed a fierce expression like a beast, and laughed loudly. Seeing this scene, the others were also taken aback, and soon two paladins rushed up to arrest him. But the other party didn't seem to notice this at all, and he didn't have the slightest intention of breaking free, just shook his head frantically, laughed and shouted.

"Dead dead !! Everyone is dead!! We're all going to die, we're dead, everybody is crazy, there's no one here, it's all monsters, monsters, monsters!! You can't kill me, hahahaha, I'm also a monster, you're also a monster, we're all monsters, you're a dead monster, I'm a living monster, I'm a living monster, I'm ............! ”

The poor paladin had said so much, and so at that moment his whole head suddenly rose back, and then he saw his head thrown off his body, and blood spurted from his neck and scattered on the white floor, causing a scream of terror. And the paladin's head rolled on the floor for a moment, lingering on the edge of the steps with blood stains, his face facing upwards, with a happy, pleasant, as if beyond a smile of annoyance. His mouth was wide open, and his snow-white teeth reflected the icy cold light in the holy light.

The temple erupted in a scream of fear, then regained its composure, and the bishop stared at the paladin's head, before he sighed deeply and waved his hand a moment later.

"Take him down............ Everyone, be careful, don't leave the temple........."

"What shall we do, Lord Bishop?"

Resisting the urge to be disgusted, the priest turned his head away, no longer looking at the headless corpse, but at the bishop beside him. Hearing her inquiry, the bishop was silent for a moment, then sighed.

"It seems that there is no way, we have to ask for assistance from headquarters, this is not a situation that we can solve, and no one knows what is going on here. This strange night, and those terrible monsters, people are inexplicably going crazy, and there must be some demon at work in it. In any case, we have to respond. ”

In response to the priest's inquiry, the bishop turned away, and then he uneasily reached out and touched the emblem he was carrying.

If there is really no way, I'm afraid I will have to abandon these people and leave this hellish place.

“Nyine―Ksuler―Sotos!!”

Jenn walked leisurely along the road, and now he put on his mask again, put on the mage's robes, and returned to the swaggering black mage's dress. Not only him, but even Sofina and Elise, who were flanked by Jenn, were required to wear the same robes.

"From now on, you are the high-ranking leader of the cultists, and these monsters are your men, understand?"

They don't know exactly what kind of cultist they're playing, but since Jenn said so, Elise and Sofina can only do it. Then, they followed Jenn on their way, occasionally joined them by monsters chanting strange prayers. It's as if people are volunteering to rally around the hero and accompany him in the face of unknown dangers and against powerful and evil enemies.

Soon, in front of them, a brightly lit city appeared.

It was one of the cities of the Ten Towns Alliance, the Windy City of Sapprus. (To be continued......)
