Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Anthony's expression revealed unprecedented vigilance.

He held the war hammer tightly in his right hand, and continued to charge the "holy flame" with his left hand. The golden flame in his palm became brighter and purer.

Luo Xiu took out a bottle of mana potion, unscrewed the cap of the potion, took a sip, and then added the "consecration" buff to his teammates again.

Holding both swords, Pamier silently crossed Anthony's position and stood at the front of the team.

"Get ready..."

Anthony then ordered in a deep voice:

"—Break open this door for me."

…

On the other side of the door.

A chair woven from dried vines was placed in the center of the room.

An old man with a withered face was sitting on a wicker chair.

The old man's upper body was almost completely wrapped in bandages, and from underneath the bandages, crimson blood was constantly gushing out.

But this is not a wound caused by "trauma."

——This is the taboo ritual of "serving the spirit with blood"!

Just under those "wounds", the gurgling blood did not flow downwards, but was transported into the air with invisible threads.

At the end of those "silk threads" are countless wandering spirits that look like "will-o'-the-wisps". They are greedily sucking the blood from the old man, just like the needle beaks of mosquitoes and flies, robbing the old man of his "vitality".

"Eat...eat...children."

The old man opened his mouth slightly and murmured kindly: "The delicious food is right in front of you..."

"...Lord Beloved."

Beside the old man, a middle-aged man with long black hair bowed slightly to the old man and said, "Those uninvited guests are already approaching."

"The 'Cursed One' Silosep and Helton have both been martyred. You..."

"I'll stay here."

The old man who was called the 'Lord of the Blessed One' had a calm smile on his face.

"Alonso, you have been following me for thirteen years. You know, the 'Mother Goddess' always takes care of me and allows me to turn danger into good fortune in all kinds of life-threatening situations."

"But..." Alonso shook his head, "The enemy this time is different. Those 'sacrifice' have already killed the door, and they may have discovered what happened to Lodiv."

"Lodiv..." The Spirit Advocate suddenly smiled.

"Alonso, you have to understand. Rodive is just a short stop for us to follow the 'Origin'. He is not our real compatriot."

"So, don't pay too much attention to him or have too high expectations."

"Now, what you should do is to protect me so that I can spend this last time of 'serving the spirit with blood' as quickly as possible."

"...I understand, sir."

Alonso bowed and stepped back, and the slender staff he held in his right hand drew a smooth arc in the air.

Just on the path of the "arc", countless tiny sparks emerged in the air. They hovered in the air and merged with each other to form a larger and hotter flame.

…

Just at a certain moment.

--Bang! ! !

The only door was violently broken open, and Alonso saw the figures of five [Glory] believers outside the door.

His expression condensed, and he pointed his slender staff forward, and countless huge fireballs that had merged into each other flew forward in the direction pointed by the staff!

…

Palmieri raised his sword and once again built a golden wall in front of him.

——Boom boom boom boom! Countless huge fireballs slammed into the golden wall with overwhelming power.

This time, although the attack was carried out by only one enemy, it was more intense than the previous joint attack by the "Spell Master" and "Holy Servant"!

At the same time, in the semi-open room, the "wandering spirits" floating in the air, like jackals smelling the smell of flesh and blood, rushed towards Pamier's position at the same time!

Anthony's eyes were serious. The moment he broke open the door, he was keenly aware that something was wrong with those "wandering spirits".

He then quickly crossed Pamier's position, shouldered the burst of fireballs created by Alonso, and threw the "Holy Flame" in his hands at the "Wandering Spirits".

--boom! The golden fire light escaped and collided with the crimson fire. Palmier suddenly felt that the pressure to maintain the shield wall was suddenly relieved a lot.

Seeing that the attack of the "Elemental Mage" Alonzo on the opposite side was counteracted by Anthony, Pamier also lifted the wall of "Holy Light Protection", picked up the sword and sprinted deeper.

Connor and another Holy Light Priest of the "Red Maple City Church", Coren, also rushed into the room following Pamier.

Coren gathered the light spear in his left hand, and drew out the light awl from his hip with his right hand. Next to him, golden lines flashed on the war hammer in Connor's right hand. They simultaneously launched an attack on the old man in the center of the room.

At this time, anyone can see that this old man is the strongest [lost] here, Starro, the "Spirit Beloved" with three destiny paths!

Coren's light spear touched Starro's body before Connor's war hammer, and was about to pierce the body of Starro, the "Spirit Beloved".

However, at the next moment, with Staro as the origin, a terrifying spiritual surge began to spread rapidly to the surroundings, shaking Coron's light spear and then annihilating it without a trace!

"Séance!" Anthony shouted to the two Connors in front of him: "Get away quickly! Don't you—"

But he hadn't finished speaking, or rather, Colen and Connor hadn't finished listening to Anthony's words before they were swept into the violent spiritual tide.

Luo Xiu then drew out the "White Oak Staff", quickly completed the chanting of "Group Healing", and then extended the staff in the direction of Colen and Connor, locking the target of delayed treatment.

The next moment, countless scarlet blood flowers suddenly exploded from Colen and Connor's bodies, and blood gushed out from the wounds caused by the implosion, and the vitality of the two was quickly reduced.

The light ball of "Group Healing" was also accurately applied to the two before they were about to enter the "severely injured" state.

Blood no longer gushed out of their wounds, and the wounds continued to heal under the effect of "healing".

After Connor and Colen regained their freedom of movement, they quickly retreated away from the "Spirit Descendant", with a lingering fear on their faces.

Anthony was struggling with countless "wandering spirits" who came for the smell, while distracting his attention and observing the battle situation on the front line of Connor and Colum.

After judging that they had temporarily retreated to a safe position, Anthony shouted to remind them:

"Starro, the "Spirit Descender", not only has the ability to let "wandering spirits" descend on himself, but also has the means to let "wandering spirits" descend on other people!"

"Open your perception and pay attention to those hidden-"

Connor still couldn't hear the whole sentence Anthony shouted.

He and Colum were once again engulfed by the spirit of "Spirit Descender" Starro.

Connor and Colum once again inexplicably felt that something was trying to get into their bodies, just like before.

And they couldn't even resist at all, and could only try to slow down the speed of being "descended". This inexplicable "invader" seemed to be really omnipresent.
