Edge of Pure Land

Chapter 64 The Appreciation of the High Priest

When the pressure from the high priest echoed in the sky and the earth, passers-by on the street seemed to have seen a miracle, and the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis almost drowned the entire city.

At the entrance to the underground ruins on East Street, hot fire danced in Longque’s raised fingertips. The skeleton of a giant dragon had already materialized, hovering around him, roaring.

 This is the sense of oppression brought about by the sixth world of compassion.

Facing such a terrifying power, the sickly young man among the six chief priests did not choose to force a breakthrough after all. After all, his own strength was far from enough.

“Master officiant? Master officiant?”

Director Charles jumped anxiously, and suddenly found that the officiant had stopped moving.

 After a while, there was a sound of snoring on the long street.

This officiant actually fell asleep standing up!

“Senior brother fell asleep again. Find a stretcher and carry him away. It’s embarrassing!”

“Anyway, the teacher is still alive, so we don’t need to worry about the underground ruins.”

 “Let’s go quickly to avoid further embarrassment here!”

The remaining five officiants looked at each other, found a stretcher from somewhere, carried their senior brother and left in a hurry, with the priests and nuns of the sacrificial hall following behind them.

 Leave Chief Charles messy in the wind.

In an instant, the overwhelming terrifying power dissipated.

 Longque sat on the wheelchair again, and the violent fluctuations of life energy collapsed again.

  Returned to the level of the third victory circle.

 The giant dragon bones entrenched around him also dispersed, and the scorching heat disappeared.

Charles's cold sweat was like opening a floodgate, and he felt as if he had walked away from the gate of hell.

After waiting for those innocent ordinary people to come out from the underground, they knelt down on the roadside and cried bitterly. They were all people living at the lowest level. After being captured by the heretics, they never expected to be rescued, but they did not expect that fate would really favor them. got them.

Just when Charles was about to order his men to appease the ordinary people, he saw them getting up one after another and coming to the ladder at the entrance, pulling the last two people up and thanking them sincerely.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Those ordinary people said sincerely: "Thank you."

Officer An gave a wry smile and shook his head: "It's okay, I didn't do anything."

 Boss Zhang smiled and said, “It’s not us you want to thank.”

After Damon and Rose climbed out with the judges, they quickly looked around.

"That Annan is still underground, won't that guy start a fight with him?" Qiangwei acted very anxious, her charming face was full of anxiety, and she was so anxious that she wanted to go back to the underground ruins to find someone.

"rest assured."

Damon grabbed her and said, "The officer's chip is here, he's fine."

 The next moment, an unusually arrogant voice sounded from the ground.

 “Someone come quickly and pull me up.”

Lu Fuji shouted underground: "By the way, which beast ordered the annihilation of underground ruins? Someone even executed such an idiotic order. Let him get out and face me!"

 Director Charles's face changed instantly.

 Because he applied for the annihilation of underground ruins...

The attack on the high priest during the sacrificial ceremony was too sudden, but fortunately the senior officials responded quickly. The source of the explosion from the underground ruins has been eliminated, and the rebellious heretics have basically been cleared away. Although they took the lead I didn't catch it, but I also found clues.

At this moment, Director Charles is still leading a team to investigate the traces in the underground ruins and handing the clues to the Sacred Intelligence Network to analyze the specific situation.

This time, the Anomaly Supervision and Administration Bureau did not argue with him.

 Because all the useful evidence was taken away by Lu Fuji.

 It’s just Charles who is stupid and still checking it.

 Even if he is found buried, nothing will be found.

"You see, the Law Enforcement Bureau's style of work is to search for evidence at the scene, and the specific case analysis is handed over to the Holy Intelligence. Although the Holy Intelligence is indeed efficient enough, people's subjective initiative will be reduced for a long time. , people will become more and more useless.”

Longque was sitting at a roadside stall drinking tea and commented lightly: "As a collection of divine power from the Tree of Kabbalah, the Divine Intelligence has been evolving on its own, becoming more and more perfect so that humans can rely on it. But it has chosen , often those who are not attached to its existence.”

He paused: "Only such people can pursue the qualifications of the divine monarch."

 “Oh oh oh.”

Lu Fuji didn’t listen at all, he drank tea tiredly and looked around.

 “What are you looking at?”

Longque couldn’t help but ask.

 “Oh, I met a person in the underground ruins.”

  Lu Buer retracted his gaze: "The nuns next to the high priest can also use divine power."

After coming out of the laboratory in the underground ruins, the nun named Xuelian parted ways with him. According to her, it was because there were so many people outside and she was likely to be exposed to the eyes of people with ulterior motives, but the specific reason was I don’t know, there’s a high probability that there’s something else hidden.

Longque looked at him rather strangely.

 In fact, only the high priest can use the divine power of the Kabbalah Tree of Life.

Of course many people don’t know about this.

Lu Fuji's words revealed who the person he met was revealed.

 “Well, Sister of the High Priest.”

Long Que said without changing his expression: "She didn't say anything bad about me to you, did she?"

Lu Fuji asked curiously: "Do you know each other?"

Long Que hummed: "We are old acquaintances."

 “Oh, she told me to stay away from you.”

　　Shika Fuji stared at him carefully: "Because you can become a white ghost."

 When speaking, he always maintained a high level of attention.

 There was no desire to eat in the palm of his right hand.

 But it is also possible that Longque hid the dark matter very deeply.

If they are all the same kind of people, they can speak openly.

"Do you believe?"

Longque glanced at him.

Lu Fuji also drank a cup of tea and analyzed: "First of all, I can confirm one thing now. All abnormalities in this city are related to the Holy Mountain. Eight years ago, a pair of siblings entered Crossing the Holy Mountain. Since then, the prototype of the Corpse Food Cult has appeared, and the core of the secret of the Holy Mountain is probably what the third generation of the Holy Monarch obtained. "

 He paused: "White ghost magic."

 Longque showed an expression of reminiscence, silently put down the teacup, and lit a cigarette for himself: "You know quite a lot."

  Lu Fuji is basically certain.

The Grand Adjudicator most likely knew from the beginning that all the anomalies in Linhai City were related to the Holy Mountain. It was even possible that he already knew that this group of people were studying the ghost art the moment the Corpse Cult appeared. , but he said nothing.

 Instead, investigate privately.

  Chances are he has his own concerns.

 As for whether he mastered the White Walker technique, he did not admit it until the end.

Lu Fuji didn’t bother to ask.

  He has similar secrets anyway.

No one should get to the bottom of this.

So much the better.

 “What if I really master the White Walkers?”

Longque asked: "Aren't you afraid of me?"

Lu Buer asked back: "Why should you be afraid?" "That is the power of the White Walkers."

Longque explained calmly: "If I have that kind of power, then I am an alien among humans. There is nothing wrong with being afraid of me, fearing me, and staying away from me. It is definitely not a good thing to get too close to me. You should stop following me. I cooperate."

Lu Buer shook his head: "You said that it is not the power that is wrong, but the people who hold the power. I think this sentence is quite right. There is no right or wrong in power itself, it just depends on how you use it. Unless something goes wrong like in martial arts novels Be possessed and become a madman.”

He paused and said, "If I decide to stay away from you, it will be because you have done something that I cannot accept, not because of secular concepts and other people's dissuasion."

 Especially what happened today.

After returning to the underground neighborhood, he realized that he had time to stop the explosion because of this man's efforts.

 Especially, Longque did not hesitate to go against the will of the City Safety Committee.

 This kind of trust is hard to come by.

Longque looked at him deeply and hesitated to speak.

 Half a sound.

"The so-called Corpse Food Cult is actually studying the power of this taboo. The reason is temporarily unknown. But what is certain now is that they really want to destroy this city. Because they are all a group of... People who have been abandoned by this world.”

Lu Fuji slapped the manual on the table: "Read it yourself."

Long Que lowered his head and flipped through this manual. It recorded the tragic past of each corpse-eating cultist and the reasons why he wanted to pursue power. If he opened any few pages, he would see the suffering in the world.

"It's no wonder that the scale of the Corpse Cult is so large. What they rely on is not some kind of power, but the reluctance and anger deep in the hearts of human beings. The system of the divine intelligence treats human beings as human beings in order to pursue the ultimate efficiency. Tools force them to give up their emotions, and even regard human intrigues as part of the survival of the fittest. But in fact, people can never be without emotions. Of course, they will fall into darkness when they suffer great injustice and injustice."

He said softly: "When a person loses his bottom line and is not restrained by order and law, he will cause huge damage, regardless of whether he has strong power."

 He turned to the last page of the manual and saw the circled photo.

"This person is from the Law Enforcement Bureau. I will ask Damon and Qiangwei to check it out."

He suddenly said: "It's interesting to say that the Corpse Cult can conduct so many experiments in urban areas, so it should require huge funds to support it. Where does this money come from?"

Shika Fuji was stunned for a moment: "That's right."

 “That’s the clue.”

Longque put away the manual: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Shika Fuji was stunned: "What are you going to do?"

 “Go and settle the score with the person who said bad things about me.”

Long Que pushed the wheelchair, turned and left: "If there is something, please contact me through the communication channel."

 The moment he turned around, he couldn't help coughing.

 A trace of blood spilled from his lips.

 He calmly wiped away the drop of blood and sighed softly.

 It is indeed no better than before.

 Using the White Walker spell once, it has already become like this.

Lu Fuji saw his slightly tired figure and suddenly said: "Hey, please pay attention to your health. And... thank you very much for today's matter."

 Longque waved his hand without looking back: "You're welcome."

As night fell, Lianhua was shopping in a busy neighborhood to buy clothes. She disguised herself as a high school girl who had just finished school, wearing a sky blue school uniform and carrying a pink schoolbag.

 There is also a pink ragdoll cat hanging on the school bag.

so cute.

After she came out of the clothing store, she first had a meal of charcoal barbecue meat, then bought a beef roll from a roadside stall, and finally went to a snack shop to buy some things.

She hasn't enjoyed life so much for a long time, but she is not satisfied with the experience: "Compared with five hundred years ago, prices are no different now. Have ordinary people's lives really become better? The existence of evolvers. , what’s the point? Everyone is fighting for power and intrigue..."

 The first generation of holy monarchs once said.

  Evolutionaries exist to help ordinary people live a better life.

And if the power of evolvers brings oppression to ordinary people, then their existence is poison to the world.

Lianhua agreed with what he said.

 As she walked through the huge city, the look in her eyes gradually became colder.

 It is as if humanity is gradually disappearing.

 In its place is majestic divinity.

 In the end, even the childish school uniform could not hide the majesty on her body.

At this moment, a disabled man came over pushing a wheelchair on the side of the road.

 “You should have informed me earlier.”

Long Que coughed hard: "What if something happens to you?"

 He looked around and made sure there was no danger before he felt relieved.

I have to say that the high priest has a really big heart.

 After the matter was over, I notified him to come over.

 Once something happens to the high priest during this period, the consequences will be disastrous.

Lianhua said indifferently: "I met an interesting little guy underground."

 Longque knew who she was talking about.

 Otherwise, Longque would not have resisted the will of the City Safety Committee so decisively.

　　It would be difficult for Lu Fuji to prevent the explosion by himself.

  But it was different with the help of the high priest.

 “Like you were back then.”

Lianhua said again: "What a pity."

Long Que was unhappy: "Isn't it a good thing to be like me back then?"

Lianhua glanced at him: "You should be somewhat self-aware of yourself."

Long Que said helplessly: "Did you tell him something bad about me?"

 “I’m just telling the truth.”

Lianhua said coldly: "Let's go and do something."

Longque said calmly: "Do you need me to help you clean up the ghosts in the sacrificial hall?"

 “As for your body, forget it.”

Lianhua said calmly: "I have very little time. It would be faster to do it myself. After dealing with these heretics, I still have to translate a pathology report for others."

This woman stood on the main road leading to the sacrificial hall, looking at the terrifying hole that had been blasted through the ground. A brilliant holy light fell from the sky and enveloped her body.

 The childish school uniform suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a moon-white sacrificial robe.

"After dealing with these heretics, I may have to take a break. The City Safety Committee may take the opportunity to regain power. They regard you as a thorn in their side, so you must be careful."

Lianhua raised her indifferent eyes, opened her arms, and her robes fluttered.

At this moment, the sacrificial hall at the end of the main road was illuminated by endless light.

"The wrath of my lord will come on the sons of disobedience."
