Tower Defense Game: My Kingdom of Eternal Life

Chapter 363: The Crazy High Priest

A bonfire set up with wood crackled in the cave. People in ragged clothes sat scattered in the cave. Some people knelt in front of a mural and prayed devoutly. The believers who were good at medical skills applied ointment to the wounded.

"hiss……"

The sharp blade flipping through the wound made the brave man tremble all over.

"Be patient."

The man with an ordinary face reminded him without raising his head.

He skillfully cut away the rotten flesh with a knife, took out a dented iron box from his arms, took out a piece of black ointment, and applied it to the strong man's wound.

"Thanks."

The strong man said in a low voice with a pale face and sweating profusely.

The man stood up and left without saying anything. There were a lot of wounded tonight, and he was still busy.

"Our fellow travelers sacrificed their lives to create opportunities for us to escape. We should remember their names! Remember the shame of today! But all of this was caused by the rebellion of a coward!"

The woman in gray robe shouted with an angry look on her face.

"Bring him up!"

Two believers squeezed out a man with a withered face and a crazy expression from the depths of the cave. His hands and feet were tied with heavy chains, and his shoulder blades were pierced by two iron thorns, and his body was stained red with blood.

"Kudo! Why did you betray us!"

Adele said angrily.

"Hey, hey..." the traitor named Kudo giggled and drooled from the corner of his mouth, "Believe in the Blood God... and gain eternal life... We will never be able to escape from here... That bad goat just wants to devour our souls...

"

"You are talking nonsense and dare to slander the great Lord of God." Adele's tone was not as angry as it seemed. "It turns out that you have betrayed our faith a long time ago. No wonder you can do such a thing!"

"Kill him! Blood sacrifice thirteen fellow travelers!"

"Kudo, you are a beast!"

"..."

The believers in the cave shouted excitedly.

Adele's face was cold, and she took the sharp knife handed over by others, "You betrayed the faith of the Lord of God, and you deserve to be punished. You also spread false news, causing thirteen of our fellow travelers to lose their lives in vain!

Only blood sacrifice can atone for your sins!"

Stab!

She inserted the knife into Kudo's chest two inches below his throat, and then slashed hard without changing her expression. Blood spurted out, staining her entire face, and the flickering firelight made her look like a devil.

.

Bah!!

The plasma is like a column.

"ah!!"

Kudo screamed in pain as blood overflowed from his mouth, and his eyes bulged as if they were about to bulge out of their sockets.

The surrounding believers, men, women, old and young, all looked fanatical when they saw this scene. Some of the resentful ones gnashed their teeth and wished to eat his flesh and blood alive. The voices of those praying became louder and louder, as if they wanted to drown out his screams.

"Those who betray will be punished!"

Adele reached into his chest and took out a beating heart. She strode to the mural, crushed the heart, and sprinkled the minced flesh and blood on the black goat's head painted on the wall.

"The blasphemer has been eliminated! Great God, please give us strength again and help us drive away evil!"

Adele said piously.

Buzz!

The goat pattern actually responded, and the eyes lit up with deep magic fire. Then, Adele's body was seen shaking violently, and the aura emanating from her whole body began to increase.

call……!

A strong wind blew through the cave.

Adele's breath quickly subsided, and she knelt down in front of the mural in surprise and responded: "Thank God for the gift!" Seeing her, other believers also knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly towards the goat head on the mural.

After the blood sacrifice incident.

The atmosphere in the cave once again became dull and even a little quiet.

In the endless night, people can't see any hope and can only struggle to survive. The mental state of most believers has become crazy in their blind faith.

"In the next few days, we have to organize people to go back to the Hidden Village. The Healing Church is aware of the thunder beast riot and will definitely send people to investigate again. We cannot let go of any opportunity to leave..."

Adele and several core church personnel gathered together to discuss.

The doctor in the team came to her, paused slightly, and whispered to Adele: "We have used up all the medicine, and the wounds of several injured people have been infected. It is recommended that they be isolated as soon as possible."

"Moore, thank you for your hard work."

Adele sighed with a slight look in her eyes.

"How long will it take for these days to end...Can't the great Lord God hear our prayers...?"

A man with white temples said in a sad tone.

Adele glanced at him and said, "Watch your words, the God Lord is paying attention to us all the time! We are where we are today because of our incompetence, and those despicable Healing Church priests are the culprits!"

"Isn't it just that I haven't fought for territory..."

Cheng Shen murmured in his heart.

Adele looked at the crowd who were silent and wondering what they were thinking, and suddenly looked at Cheng Shen, "Moore, come with me."

"yes."

Cheng Shen lowered his head and knew exactly what she was going to do.

He had already learned everything about this identity through Moore himself in the desperate situation of reincarnation.

But still be cautious.

Although Cheng Shen doesn't think there is any creature in this world that can withstand the torture of reincarnation.

But when it comes to these fanatical believers, one can never be too cautious.

He understood the information Moore had and some of the things he probably had to do every day. He transformed his appearance through deified metal, combined with the hidden aura of invisible touch, and adjusted his mind through emotional perception.

Don't say that people who are not familiar with it can't see it.

Even Moore's biological parents may not be aware of his current changes.

Follow Adele into the depths of the cave.

This cave is the main stronghold of the Goat Sect in the black mist area. It is connected to natural caves inside and is intricate. Even the people of the Goat Sect don't know where the deepest part leads. It is extremely suitable for hiding.

Adele led Cheng Shen to an inner cave. She waved her hand to remove the energy barrier blocking the entrance of the cave, and a wave of evil energy suddenly poured out of it.

"Adele..."

Lying in the cave was a figure that was as black as rotten flesh. His human form could no longer be seen. He could only be identified from the old head that had not yet deformed. He was once a human being.

"High Priest, are you feeling better today?"

Adele asked respectfully.

"It's getting better... The consciousness of the God Lord is merging with me... You see, my body is transforming into the highest form..."

The high priest's voice was muddled as if he was delirious due to a high fever and he replied.

Cheng Shen took one look at his rotten body, and his inner thoughts were unknown to outsiders.

"High Priest, if you can't hold on, give up. The church is facing a crisis and we need you..."

Adele continued.

But before she could speak, she was interrupted by the old man.

"Give up?... The Lord of God has responded to me, and I will gain the power of immortality...! You told me to give up... Are you jealous that I can communicate with the Lord of God?!"

The old man's eyes popped out and he looked at Adele with hatred.

Priestess stood there calmly and silently.

Wow...

The old man's head kept moving on the mud body, and his eyes were sometimes crazy, sometimes confused, and sometimes sober. "I know what you said... everything will be solved when I complete the fusion..."

"Moore will check on you again today."

Adele said.

"Okay..." The high priest stared at her with one eye and turned to Cheng Shen with the other.

Adele turned around and left the cave without saying anything.

"Come here...boy...look at my wonderful body shape. Is there anything that needs to be checked...?"

The high priest looked at Cheng Shen with a strange tone.

Cheng Shen released his senses and noticed that Adele's figure had walked far away, and the hidden light intertwined at the entrance of the cave, forming a complex formation.

Cheng Shen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"I see that you are seriously ill."

He spoke.

"Sick?" The high priest's head slid like a ball in the black mud.

"I am a professional doctor, you have to trust my judgment." Cheng Shen took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and put them on his hands.

"You said I'm sick?"

The high priest seemed to have no idea why Cheng Shen was talking to him like this.

"You just need to keep quiet, and I will arrange the best treatment plan for you."

Cheng Shen walked towards him without any fear.

Creak...

The floor of the cave was covered with a foul-smelling sticky substance, something that could not be distinguished from excrement or food, mixed with the flowing black mud.

for the latter.

Cheng Shen could be said to have met an old friend.

He had encountered a lot of this weird black substance when cleaning the sacrificial temple. It was a polluted substance formed by a mixture of abyss pollution and dark distortion energy.

If a normal life form is contaminated even a little bit, it will be corroded into a twisted monster.

But the Faceless Angel was an experimental subject created by Storm Castle, and Storm Castle had a cooperative relationship with the Temple of Sacrifice. Naturally, they were not afraid of contamination from this kind of substance. Cheng Shen wore gloves purely because of his mental hysteria.

"Hey hey hey..."

The high priest's eyes were moving in different directions, which was a bit funny, but in the current scene, it was even more terrifying.

"You dare to come close to me...?"

He watched in surprise as Cheng Shen approached step by step.

Hearing this, Cheng Shen paused, but not because of the question he mentioned, "You should still have a spine, right?"

"?"

The high priest's thinking was very crazy and erratic, and I didn't understand what he meant for a while.

"It doesn't matter, I'll find it myself."

Cheng Shen said expressionlessly.

"Fresh...delicious...that ungrateful thing Adele hasn't brought me food in a long time."

The high priest coveted.

Whoosh!

The black mud flowing on the ground suddenly splashed towards Cheng Shen.

But half a meter in front of him, there seemed to be an invisible barrier that blocked all pollutants.

Cheng Shen quickened his steps and arrived in front of the high priest in an instant, pulling up its head.

Wow!

Connected under its head is a yellowed skeleton covered with black spots. Those black spots are the pollutants that have eroded into his bone marrow.

"How did you..."

The high priest's eyes were extremely stunned.

"You are indeed seriously ill and need amputation." Cheng Shen said. As he spoke, he stepped on the high priest's skeleton, pulled it hard, and pulled off its head and a long spine with a snap.

come out!

"You dare to destroy my supreme body...!"

The high priest said angrily.

"Supreme? I think you are confused." Cheng Shen didn't believe its nonsense.

Through Adele's previous behavior, he had already deduced what the so-called Goat Church was. Maybe they had really been protected by a god, but that was only once.

"Adele... stop him quickly...!"

shouted the high priest.

"Um?"

Cheng Shen turned around suddenly.

However, he saw a tall figure standing at the entrance of the cave, with no expression on his smooth white face, and a pair of bright black eyes looking at him quietly. The formation he had set up at the entrance of the cave was completely untouched.

Cheng Shen's heart sank.

He miscalculated.

The ability that has always been unfavorable is actually thwarted here.

He looked at Adele and tied the high priest's spine and head behind his back, regardless of the other person's continued yelling.

"Let me leave, or I will expose the truth about you pretending to be a god and deceiving other believers."

Cheng Shen said.

"Heh." Adele's bright eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Do you think you have the ability to walk out of here?"

Cheng Shen's expression did not change.

"The wounded I treated just now will all die within an hour."

He calmly threw out his second hole card.

Adele's eyes narrowed slightly, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly enveloped Cheng Shen's whole body, "I will catch you, tear off your skin inch by inch, disassemble your bones one by one, and make you beg."

You can’t die!”

"It would be nice if I could be afraid."

Stab!

The wide metal wings tore through Cheng Shen's clothes and unfolded behind him. His face began to melt and flowed into silver liquid metal, reshaping another unfamiliar face.

Adele's confident expression immediately turned gloomy, "You guys are such monsters! You wantonly killed my people and then want to leave. Do you really think I can't do anything to you?!"

"...I think we can talk."

Cheng Shen folded his wings and calmed down. After all the cards he had reserved, the opponent did not back down. Instead, his murderous intent became stronger. He immediately understood that Adele would not be convinced by continuing to have a tough attitude and threats.

Instead of being tough, it's better to listen to her opinion first.

This is not cowardice.

It’s about knowing how to be patient and give in.

"The life of the high priest is still in your hands, what can we talk about?"

Adele looked gloomy.

Cheng Shen understood it as soon as he heard it.

"I will hand him over to the Healing Church so that he will never see the sun again in his life."

he promised.

"...Undo the poison in my people!"

Adele said again.

Cheng Shen spread his hands and said, "Fake it, I don't have any poison on me."

"Then what do we have to talk about!"

Adele suddenly became murderous.

"Of course, food, medicine, or bringing your people back to reality. I thought you wanted to talk to me about this."

Cheng Shen said naturally.

He had already figured everything out from the moment Adele didn't attack him.

He disguised himself as Moore, but was actually exposed to Adele's eyes all the time, so what she indulged herself in must have a purpose.

At the very beginning.

Cheng Shen only thought that she wanted to deal with the high priest with her own hands.

Perhaps she had this idea because of the high priest's confused words.

The god who protected the Goat Sect has disappeared, including the so-called miracles, which were all faked by Adele. But the high priest claimed that he could sense the will of the god and was merging with the god.

I also want to know.

The relationship between him and Adele was far from harmonious.

Adele was afraid of the gods and did not dare to take action, so she found him, but if she did not show up, it would be enough for Cheng Shen to achieve his goal.

She obviously had other motives for showing up.
