"Who exactly are you!"Anleisi channeled the forbidden curse, shouting loudly with questioning.
The cocoon wrapped around Kaius continuously transferred a certain energy into the Pope’s body. His old face immediately showed a comfortable expression, as if enjoying sweet nectar.
[Viskasa]
[I, my true name is Viskasa]
The Pope’s voice appeared in their minds again, but this time, his voice was much more vivid and lively, more like that of a living person.
"Who?"
Anleisi was completely unfamiliar with this name. The mastermind’s self-revealing name should be a moment of revealing an exciting truth, but she didn’t understand it at all.
The forbidden curse was completed at this moment, and she blasted into the Pope with this forbidden spell-level magic cannon called "Star Shatter."
Just as the magic cannon was infinitely close to the Pope, the surrounding space instantly distorted, with the space and time in that area twisted together. Although the magic cannon was only a little distance away from hitting him, that tiny distance was infinitely elongated or even paused.
Anleisi’s world flickered with color.
In the next moment, the destructive forbidden curse disappeared.
It just vanished into thin air!
What’s happened!?
Anleisi was shocked in her heart and quickly increased the distance from the Pope.
The Pope showed an expression of delight at this moment, as if he had tasted some delicacies, and his gaze towards Anleisi was filled with even more desire.
"What are you trying to achieve with all this?"
Anleisi decided to use conversation to delay time, while replenishing magic and analyzing the enemy’s abilities during this period.
[There’s nothing to say]
The Pope raised a hand towards her.
"!"
Anleisi didn’t even have time to dodge and was instantly controlled in place. The space around her was so heavy it felt as if a Titan Giant was sitting on her, but not being crushed was already the result of the Hero’s power eruption.
[You too, assist me in returning]
"What... is this..."
Just as Anleisi gradually felt the magic power being extracted from her body, another powerful wave of Holy Light erupted behind her.
If the Holy Light emitted by the Pope was dazzling and cold, then the Holy Light appearing behind her was gentle and warm, though it was also filled with killing intent?
In the next instant, one by one objects shining with Holy Light came rushing in, directly fitting onto Anleisi’s body. These objects vibrated together, and the gravity binding her was instantly lifted.
"Ah!"
Anleisi suddenly fell to the ground, and only then did she realize what had been put on her.
Weapons, all shone with Holy Light weapons!
[Bright God’s Skull], [Bright God’s Left Wrist], [Bright God’s Right Wrist]... These were Bright God’s Series Weapons from the Holy Light Dungeon.
Wearing these weapons, Anleisi’s aura instantly intensified, increased, and boosted; even the chapel couldn’t withstand such soaring power and showed signs of cracking.
"Good, such powerful force, what are these?"
She turned around to look, only to see that at the chapel’s entrance, various mythological creatures that appeared only in the Holy Light Dungeon stood aplenty.
Has the Holy Light Dungeon gone berserk?
She had a feeling that these beings were here to help her, and she could fight side by side with them!
Anleisi glared at the Pope, took a deep breath, and solemnly said:
"No matter what you are, regardless of what you intend to do, I am going to kill you now, you fake Holy Light bastard."
[No, I am the Holy Light]
The Pope finally stood up from his chair, looked at Anleisi, but his gaze penetrated her towards a farther place.
[I knew you would come, Zank]
"Zank?"
Anleisi looked around; there was no one else here, who is Zank?
At the same time, the followers in the Holy Light Dungeon seemed to be struck by lightning, showing an expression as if they’d seen a ghost.
"How, how does he know my true name?"
[You arrived just in time, now only you are needed]
The Pope’s voice grew more lively, surrounded by increasingly dazzling Holy Light.
[You are the most gifted follower I’ve seen, yet you never heeded me]
[At this moment, I have become the Holy Light itself]
[I am the Holy Light God]
"Pfft——"
An ominous stench suddenly enveloped the entire chapel, accompanied by a sound as vulgar as a fart—this is a Pseudo Forbidden Curse-level Poison Attribute Magic, Foul Stench at the Doorstep.
The Pope’s passion that had just surged up was instantly interrupted, and he looked towards Anleisi with eyes devoid of emotion.
"So, poison gas is ineffective against you."
She raised her hand slightly, with hundreds of magic wands suspended behind her, each emanating different magic.
"I don’t know who you are or what you want, but you are not the Holy Light."
"Holy Light—that is a gentle entity capable of healing the world’s people, not a creature like you colluding with the Demon Clan!"
Hundreds of nearly forbidden spell-level magic shot towards the Pope, their combined power already surpassing the Super Forbidden Curses painstakingly researched by the Magic Professors!
The Pope raised his hand, and Anleisi’s eyes once again flashed a transformation of brightness and darkness.
Hundreds of super powerful magic disappeared soundlessly.
"What!?"
Anleisi and the followers exclaimed in unison.
[Do you know where light comes from, what it symbolizes?]
The Pope’s voice already carried a tone of "light shrug" emotions.
"Light?"
Anleisi broke into a cold sweat; the huge amplification from the weapons gave her immense confidence just now, but now she inevitably sank into bewilderment.
She needed time to probe the enemy; otherwise, she couldn’t comprehend what had just happened at all.
"The source of light is surely the sun, you don’t even know that?" She attempted to enrage the Pope, searching for vulnerability.
The followers immediately thought of the Church’s doctrine, which states that light originates from the Holy Light God’s blessing, symbolizing His compassion for the people.
[The source and symbol of light, both are the same]
Suddenly, a tone of reminiscence flowed in the Pope’s voice, as if he were reminiscing about something, he said:
[It’s courage]
Light symbolizes courage?
Anleisi had never heard of this saying, and she found it absurd for a moment, but if she followed the conversation, perhaps she could make the Pope expose more weaknesses.
But before she could say anything further.
The sky turned dark.
[Now, I shall deprive you of your light]
The screams of Anleisi and the followers suddenly echoed throughout the capital.
Gong Qiying heard the followers’ wails.
"Something has gone wrong with the Holy Light Dungeon... we need to increase our speed."
