Buzz——

The air was slowly vibrating at an extremely low frequency by an inexplicable force.

From the other side of the sky, outside the box garden, rays of spiritual energy visible to the naked eye gathered together, and finally sank into Lubeck's body like a countercurrent spring, causing him to slowly stand up and float in the air.

The scars on the body of the mountain mercenary and the gray-white, necrotic parts all began to heal and regenerate, becoming bloody again.

The inscription circuit that was originally engraved on his body shone with pure white fluorescence for a while, and then slowly disappeared into Lubeck's body.

This scene lasted for a few seconds, and then Lubeck's body fell from mid-air, and the white psychic halo in his eyes gradually faded, revealing his original green eyes.

"This is……"

Lubeck came back to life. He looked around in confusion, obviously not sure what was going on now - although he was not dead originally, he was not far away from death, but the ritual of Huaiguang actually directly brought him back to life!

"good!"

"The ceremony was a success!"

"Now we have another cleric... we have more hope of completing the mission!"

"Not bad, Lübeck, you actually succeeded!"

Lübeck knew everyone in the rescue team, and they cheered.

If you think about it carefully, the red-haired mountain people were originally mercenaries who sold themselves to Huaiguang. After they were converted, they even served as logistics personnel to assist many Huaiguang churches in Nanling Province.

Although he has not fought for a long time, this time, in order to prevent the beast king in Feiyan Land from going crazy in the Baisen Mountains from causing trouble in the South Ridge and the Western Territory, in order to prevent this 'man-made disaster', he resolutely returned to his hometown in his own personal capacity. , returned to his hometown tribe that worshiped the Dragon God, and tried to cooperate with the Dragon Worship Cult to stop all this.

Even in the face of death, he never regretted it.

At this moment, with the spread of psychic energy fluctuations, Ian actually knew why Lubeck was recognized by Huaiguang - this was recognition, Huaiguang's recognition.

It finally dawned on him that he knew why the other party suddenly acted with Xio to attack Feiyandi's base.

Although Lübeck failed, his spirit can definitely be called "enlightened". No wonder Huijian recognized him.

"I... came to life?"

Lübeck, who landed on the ground, showed a shocked expression. Like Xio, he was directly imprisoned in the soul-binding pillar after being captured. Except for some hazy perceptions, his thinking seemed to be stagnant.

But after he woke up here, he became an official member of the Holy Order of Light.

Although he was confused at first, Lubeck's expression soon became calm.

He smiled and said hello to Huijian, Yingguang and Redemption, and then greeted old and new friends from other rescue teams.

"Hello...strange knight?"

Finally, Lubeck looked at Ian, who appeared to be calm on the surface, but actually had a turmoil in his heart.

He smiled and greeted the knight: "For the next mission, there is a high probability that we will work together... My name is Lubeck. You can also call me Red Blade. This is the code name I have used before, and I will probably continue to do so in the future. Use it."

"...You can call me Rivendell."

At this moment, Ian stared at the 'acquaintance' in front of him.

He was 100% sure that the other party was Lubeck.

But...it's not 100% Lübeck.

At least, Lübeck, who used to be a mountain mercenary, would never be able to say hello in such a Huaiguang style even though he had stayed in the Huaiguang Church for seven or eight years!

At that moment, Ian thought it was Huijian talking to him, or Bishop Baiwu.

Huaiguang is above, that tone and friendly flavor, although showing obvious goodwill, are really too familiar and too familiar...

He... is no longer the simple Lübeck he used to be!

Today's mountain mercenaries are the 'Brilliant Lübeck'!

"Thinking assimilation, or sharing? No... according to the previous ritual... this is simply like the 'Death of Rebirth' I personally performed on my brother Elan on the way to the insect nest!"

Shaking hands with Lubeck, Ian's heart surged.

If it were an ordinary person, they might just lament that Huaiguang's divine power could actually inspire the dying, resurrect them and promote them to the priesthood.

But for him who could see the reason behind all this, what he saw and distinguished could only make him feel a sense of horror and a sudden realization.

Suppose... the way Huaiguang creates priests is to use the rebirth of death on the dying people who are mortal and conform to Huaiguang's teachings, so that they can have souls and assimilate them into themselves.

Then, this can explain why the light-bearing priests can share spiritual energy!

Because in essence, they all share part of their personality, part of their body through the same 'ritual', and even exist in the same psychic network!

However, Ian also heard the key words.

Lubeck's body contained preparations that Bishop Baiwu had made before...perhaps it was something like an 'artificial soul attached to the brain'. Assisting in the creation of souls when dying?

If it were not for such preparations, I am afraid that the probability of Lubeck awakening and becoming a priest would not be too high. If nothing else, he would not have a soul even if he was a first-level person.

Moreover, the Huaiguang ritual is obviously not successful every time, which can be seen from the fact that other people in the rescue team are also happy.

——Organs that require specific preparations, the special efforts of another Huaiguang priest, special potions, inscription rituals, and the person who performs the ritual must also be highly consistent with the Huaiguang doctrine spiritually, and even have to meet some special requirements. situations, such as near death...

From this point of view, it is normal that the number of holy priests with light is small.

Ian watched as everyone in the rescue team put on clothes, armor and weapons for Lübeck. In less than ten minutes, a dying mountain man became an official Holy Priest of the Light.

"What on earth is Huaiguang?"

He had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but in the end he summed it up in one sentence: "There is really no shortage of surprises in this world - well, at least they are really good people, even if they are a group of weird people, they are also a group of good weird people. "

Perhaps it was the effect of the goblin bloodline, or maybe Ian was inherently arrogant. He even began to explain himself as he walked aside: "Yes, in the final analysis, what is the difference between goblins and goblins? Goblins are so weird, and they are also good weird goblins."

In short, Lübeck and Xio were rescued. Although the fairy souls on the other side were all remnant souls, so they couldn't talk to Xio like that, but as long as they were brought back to the fairy village, the fairy's unique reincarnation system could bring them back. one.

And all human souls were taken away by Viscount Avak.

What remains...the souls of beasts, insects, birds, fungi and plants.

There was nothing redeemable about these souls, but Ian felt that it was not too many anyway, so he took all the crystal prisms that stored souls with him.

And he probably figured out what these nine soul-binding pillars were used for.

The creatures corresponding to the nine pillars are almost all categories of major intelligent creatures (including giant monsters) on the continent of Terra... In other words, whether it is the 'thing that all living beings fear' planned by the Demon King, or Or other dead kings, saviors and dead rivers, I am afraid they are all related to it.

In other words, this is probably the central storage room of the Awak Central Laboratory.

If Viscount Awak hadn't lured away the phantoms and monsters here, they might have gone through a horrific and difficult battle.
