As if feeling that no one shared his joy, the high priest waved at Wang Man and removed the leaves from her mouth.
"Miss Wang Man, did you feel it too? Let us taste this longed-for pleasure."
Wang Man didn't feel anything, she just felt that the person in front of her was a psychopath...
"Who are you?"
"Who is it? Do you mean identity? Name? Or something else representative?"
"Your name."
"Name? Names are not important. I've had many names before. For example, when I was young, I was called Rosen, then Xiong Zemo, and later Mo Chen.
I have used many, many names, but if you want a name, just call me Mo Chen."
While Mo Chen was talking, he would occasionally glance at the sun in the sky, and then look at the time on his watch.
He seemed to be confirming a certain influence in time all the time, and Wang Man noticed this particularly.
But he mentioned a lot of names...
"Mo Chen, what do you want to do to Xu Le?"
"He is a perfect being, more perfect than you. It is really something to look forward to, Miss Wang Man. I believe that soon you will not need to ask my name anymore.
You can also call me Brother Xu Le as you did before!"
Wang Man: …
Wang Man felt her scalp tingling. There were more and more perverts in this world.
Also Xu Lege, Yue...
"Why aren't you talking? Are you looking forward to it too? It won't be long before you don't need to be in love anymore, and your brother Xu Le will come back to you..."
"Go away, crawl, who wants you to stay by my side, go away, go away, wuwuwu..."
While Wang Man was cursing, Mo Chen blocked her mouth with leaves again.
Perhaps because of being scolded by Wang Man, his excited expression subsided a little and he became quieter.
Slowly untying the veil wrapped around his head, Mo Chen revealed his current appearance.
Just by seeing the back of Mo Chen's head, Wang Man's pupils contracted violently.
Rotten skin and patches of bald hair were mixed together. The scalp had completely rotted in some places, and the skin tissue could not even cover Mo Chen's skull.
The color of the skull is a mixture of red and white, and some blood vessels are still on it, a bit like the roots of a leaf.
What flows in these blood vessels doesn't feel like normal blood, but rather some special liquid.
"Woo woo..." When Mo Chen turned around, Wang Man screamed in fear.
His look...
"Don't worry, Miss Wang Man. Your Xu Le will come to see you soon."
Mo Chen turned around and walked to the window of the prayer room. He stood by the window and slowly raised his head, bathing in the last rays of sunlight at sunset.
"Goodbye, cage."
…
On Xu Le's side, Wang Shu was driving fast on the road, and the Illuminati Church was already in front of them.
With an emergency brake, Wang Shu parked the car in the parking lot next to the Illuminati.
"Let's go, we're pretty fast, but we can't let our guard down."
"yes."
While walking on the road, Xu Le briefly explained the current situation.
“The Upper Town is a wealthy area, but it is not just a wealthy area. If they are really here, we also need to try our best to control the scope of possible fighting.
After all, the upper city is not the lower city, so the night watchmen and guards will arrive faster, and the Illuminati itself will also have experts appear."
"Understood."
After nodding to each other, several people entered the Illuminati church together.
Xu Le walked towards a pastor of the Illuminati, although in Xu Le's eyes he looked like this:
Priest, Level 2 Strange, Red Moon-God
But Xu Le still showed his politeness:
"Reverend, I want to ask if there is a lady of this height, with this figure, wearing a black silk dress who has been here before. Her name is Wang Man."
Like other Illuminati clergy, this pastor was wrapped in cloth, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.
The eyes hidden under the veil have a pair of light golden pupils.
After staring at Xu Le and the others for a while, he nodded slightly:
"Miss Wang Man is a devout believer. She comes here every day and prays for a long time. She should still be here at this time. You should be able to find her in prayer room No. 3."
The pastor's answer was very complete, and Xu Le did not expect to get Wang Man's information so easily.
He originally thought that it would be troublesome for a while, but it went unexpectedly smoothly.
"Thank you, Reverend, and may the light bless you."
"You're welcome, Mr. Xu Le, the light is with you."
Xu Le led his men inside, but suddenly stopped halfway.
"What's wrong?" Gu Beichen asked.
Xu Le didn't say anything. Ai Li glanced at Wang Shu, then shifted his gaze to Xu Le.
"The pastor just now said he was Xu Le."
"Yeah, he is Xu Le, what's the problem?"
"Xu Le never introduced himself."
"Forehead… "
The conversation suddenly came to a halt. Xu Le himself did not say much, but he did not immediately walk towards prayer room No. 3.
“We still have to go, but we have to disperse and spread out at different angles, so that the safety pressure will be much less.
His puppets have been almost used up. If he is really that strong, he doesn't need to spend so much energy to arrange these things."
"clear."
Several people dispersed, and only Xu Le went through the main entrance and walked towards prayer room No. 3.
…
Wang Man kept holding her Lightcast notebook in her hand, and she kept using her power to remind Lightcast.
But Guangzhu only gave her an indifferent response.
"This is not our business, and Xu Le is not one of us. Why should we remind him?"
"If Xu Le dies, there will be no one to take me to the tower, and my Lord's plan will fail completely..."
"..." Guangzhu was silent again, but this time he did not explicitly refuse, he just said lightly:
"I see."
Wang Man frowned, she was a little unwilling, but she had no better way.
Mo Chen in front of him was still staring at the door, and he seemed not to notice the little movements made by Wang Man.
"Mr. Xu Le is a very smart, sharp, vigilant person with strong fighting ability.
I am no longer his opponent."
Wang Man:
She didn't understand what Mo Chen meant by this, but Mo Chen continued:
“But it was because of his intelligence and vigilance that I was given a real chance. In a sense, he defeated me from a positive perspective, which gave him confidence in his own strength.
Then, even when he defeats me, he will still remain vigilant, and when he finds something wrong, he will split the team and attack here from multiple angles.
His lovers and friends will all be there, and I have prepared special rituals for each of them.
Dusk is the sunset, and the light will also disappear at this time. "
Wang Man had no idea what Mo Chen was talking about. She did gain some power from Lightcaster, but she was not a warlock.
Therefore, there is no way to guess Mo Chen's thoughts from a sorcerer's perspective.
All she could do was shout for help, keep shouting, shouting to Guangzhu.
She kept yelling until Guangzhu was a little annoyed with her and could only respond:
"Stop shouting. I've already sent the warning to that kid's beacon. He never contacted me on his own initiative, so..."
Wang Man suddenly stopped calling Guangzhu because Xu Le had already arrived at the door of the prayer room and was looking at her from a distance.
Well, Wang Man was not sure whether Xu Le was looking at Mo Chen or at her.
"You're so ugly." Xu Le stood at the door and didn't move forward.
Well, I'll just stand at the door for a while and definitely not go in.
Mo Chen was not angry at what Xu Le said, he just smiled and said:
"Mr. Xu Le's reaction speed is really fast. You came earlier than I thought..."
Xu Le took a look at Wang Man who was trapped behind Mo Chen, and did not rush forward rashly. Although he was not completely sure about Mo Chen's purpose in capturing Wang Man, from the previous analysis, he should want to take over Wang Man's body.
Xu Le didn't know whether what Mo Chen was going to do was called possession of another's body in this world, but the general meaning was that he was going to occupy Wang Man's body and then be reborn.
To be honest, this is a little similar to his situation, so Xu Le is also very curious about how the possession of another's body is actually carried out.
"I have always thought that Mr. Mo Chen is great. He is brave in research, pursues his ideals, and is not afraid of difficulties.
My original idea was to kill you, then embellish Mr. Mo Chen's life story, and then publish a book...
What a pity, Mr. Mo Chen, how come you are still alive?"
Mo Chen: …
What is the structure of this person's brain circuit
"Shouldn't it be natural for people to seek survival?"
Mo Chen smiled, took a step back, and came in front of Wang Man.
"Mr. Xu Le should have come to save Miss Wang Man, but it's a pity that you came a little late."
As Mo Chen spoke, he extended his hand towards Wang Man.
He was full of anticipation because he had already sensed the positions of Ai Li, Wang Shu, and Gu Beichen.
It will be soon. It will be soon.
As long as Xu Le walks in...
bite!
The excited Mo Chen was shot in the head by Xu Le, and the silenced gun barrel didn't even make much noise.
Xu Le still didn't come in and remained at the door observing.
Because he received the prompt from the Black Staff, the prompt from the Lightforged Beacon.
Danger.
Xu Le didn't know what Guangzhu's hint meant, and it didn't give him any more information, just the word "dangerous".
Xu Le was alert enough, so he didn't even go in the door, just in case.
He raised his left hand slightly, signaling Wang Shu and Ai Li to be on guard, and he summoned zombies to explore.
But before he could make a move, Gu Beichen stopped him.
"Wait a minute, this is the Illuminati, do you think we're not dying fast enough?"
After hearing Gu Beichen's reminder, Xu Le also felt that there was some truth in it, so he gave up the idea of summoning and looked at Wang Shu instead.
Wang Shu, who was standing on top of the wall, lowered his voice and shouted:
"Brother Shu, this should be your home court."
Wang Shu understood what Xu Le meant. He pressed his palms against the wall of the prayer room, and branches of the golden tree gradually grew from his fingertips.
The branches spread along the walls, the ground, the grass, the chairs, and the pillars.
As the branches passed through objects one by one and came to the front and back of the body that was shot in the head by Xu Le, Wang Shu used the branches to carefully examine the condition of the body.
Phew!
The branch brushed across Mo Chen's rotting body and began to carefully examine the head-blasted corpse.
Especially the wounds and the remaining vitality under Mo Chen's body.
Just as the branch pierced into Mo Chen's body to check whether Mo Chen's heart was still beating, the heart suddenly grew some golden and bright branches like the king tree.
The branches of these golden light trees extended tender pointed buds, entangled with the branches of the king tree.
The moment the two touched, Wang Shu's pupils turned into a dazzling golden color.
These branches quickly invaded his body with some kind of soul-like power. Wang Shu's pupils shrank slightly, and the power of the golden tree converged and spread in his body.
Some fragments of memory flashed by.
Struggling, screaming, endless experiments, his skin was torn off, his bones were taken out and replaced with branches, and his blood was replaced with tree sap.
It was an endless cycle that lasted for many years.
Savoring these past events, Wang Shu slowly closed his eyes, a slight smile appeared in his heart, and then he turned his head and said to Xu Le at the door of the prayer room:
"It has been confirmed dead, so there should be no problem."
After getting Wang Shu's response, Xu Le finally felt relieved and walked forward.
He remained alert while walking because he still remembered Guangzhu's reminder, and Wang Man kept making "woooo" sounds at him.
"Don't be too anxious, Wang Man, I have to eliminate the danger here first."
Xu Le slowed down his pace and walked forward, but he had no idea that Wang Man’s reminder was not urgent at all, but that she didn’t want Xu Le to come over.
When Xu Le approached, Ai Li and Wang Shu also fell down.
Only Gu Beichen was left, still sitting on the wall with a serious expression.
Wang Shu's brows flickered slightly, and he looked at Gu Beichen:
"Beichen, aren't you coming over?"
"Um, I'll keep watch for you." Gu Beichen's expression was a little unnatural.
"We need you to keep watch?" Wang Shu urged.
"Okay, my pants are caught, wait a minute, I'll be down soon."
When Wang Shu heard Gu Beichen say that his pants were caught, the dissatisfaction on his face flashed away. He glanced at the setting sun that had gathered at the junction and said lightly:
"Forget it, it's too late."
Xu Le suddenly looked at Wang Shu. Although he didn't know what Wang Shu meant by this sentence, the tone of his voice just now...
Before Wang Shu could move, a beam of lightning hit Wang Shu's leg directly.
Let’s talk about whether there are any accidental injuries first. The most important task now is to control Wang Shu.
"Mr. Xu Le's reaction is as quick as ever..."
boom!
Wang Shu let the lightning strike his legs. This body was not what he needed, and he didn't care how Xu Le destroyed it.
When Xu Le's lightning struck Wang Shu, Wang Shu's legs had already sunk into the ground.
At this moment, Wang Shu's torso became more plant-like than ever before, and his legs completely became part of the tree, turning into roots that connected to something deeper underground.
"I originally just wanted to find a temporary body, but I didn't expect that I would be a tree-turned person, and a tree-turned person who was not controlled by the golden tree. I didn't expect that there would be people like me in this world. Mr. Xu Le, do you think this is a kind of marriage between us?"
Marriage
Can this kind of words be used here? Are you a Nantong
And even if there is such a thing as marriage, it is a matter between you and Wang Shu. What does it have to do with me, Xu Le
"You're disgusting."
Xu Le couldn't care too much at this time. Even if he used the ancient sound energy, he would be recognized by the Illuminati. He couldn't just let Mo Chen slaughter him.
"Ritual - Forbidden Summoning Array."
A large number of zombies appeared in front of Xu Le, but Mo Chen just waved his hand lightly, and countless branches broke out of the ground and pierced into these zombies.
The ancient sound energy in their bodies was instantly drained and became part of the Golden Light Tree.
This scene left Xu Le stunned.
Because he had seen similar scenes before.
That was the ancient Yinduo mother tree that devoured the power of the red moon, or it was the furnace tree he planted that killed those ancient Yinduo's strange appearance.
However, the golden light tree in front of him was full of light and the aura of the red moon, and was a completely different species from the ancient Yinduo energy.
Xu Le can confirm this.
Mo Chen controlled Wang Shu's body to move higher. The golden tree he controlled was rising higher and higher. Now everything in the prayer room was covered by a layer of golden light.
People outside can no longer see clearly what is going on inside.
Many believers would even kneel down and worship when they saw the dazzling golden light.
Although the clergy of the Illuminati were also very confused about what happened in prayer room No. 3, the believers were now worshipping there. Even if they wanted to investigate or stop it, they had to wait until the crowd dispersed.
"Notify the Tower."
"yes."
In the courtyard of the prayer room, the controlled Wang Shu had already reached mid-air.
His body was completely integrated with the tree. The lightning released by Xu Le could only barely cut through the branches that swept across, but he was never able to get close to Wang Shu.
Ai Li on the other side was not much better. The pressure from the branches was too many and too strong.
Every sweep of a branch carries with it an unrivaled impact force.
These branches seemed to be connected to the Golden Light Tree at the location of the high tower. Mo Chen controlled the King Tree and activated the power of the Golden Light Tree in the King Tree's bloodline, while also borrowing and extracting some of the power of the Lighthouse Golden Tree.
Xu Le transformed his body into an element and rushed through a pile of branches. He came to Ai Li and fought back to back with the dog.
But there were too many endless branches here, and Xu Le’s original condition was not very good, and the art of saving his life had not yet been reproduced.
After dodging several golden branches in succession, the elemental's rapid movement gradually could not keep up with the dense thorns of the branches.
A branch pierced Xu Le's body.
Xu Le groaned and swung his sword to cut off the branch, but the branch that pierced his body had actually begun to take root and sprout in a short period of time.
"Xu Le!"
Ai Li, who was standing aside, was so worried that she was in a panic. Although she knew that she needed to stay calm during the battle, if the person she cared about was really going to get hurt, no one could completely ignore it.
After Xu Le blocked more than ten branches in a row, Ai Li's thighs and abdomen were also pierced by the branches of the golden light tree.
She gritted her teeth and transformed, but in the process, her whole body began to turn into a tree.
"Aili? Dog!"
Xu Le's eyes were a little angry and a little hesitant.
Was my decision to chase Mo Chen a mistake
Wang Shu was controlled, Ai Li was seriously injured and captured, and he himself was in a desperate situation. At this time...
Xu Le suddenly stood up straight, allowing several branches of the golden tree to pierce his body, and his eyes once again turned as black as ink.
Mo Chen saw the darkness in Xu Le's eyes, but this time he was not as flustered and surprised as before.
Instead, he looked as if he was sure of winning.
"I know that Mr. Xu Le has great strength behind him, unlike me, who is helpless and alone.
But here, I'm afraid you can't rely on it anymore. After all, what we are standing on is the real Golden Light Tree, which has the power to trap gods."
The person who was stunned was no longer Mo Chen, but Xu Le at this time.
The golden tree... trapped the power of the gods? Did it mean it trapped the shredded Lightcast
Never mind.
The black color has begun to spread around, and the branches that pierced Xu Le's body have also begun to be contaminated by the darkness, revealing the characteristics of the polluter.
Mo Chen looked at the spreading black without panic. When the black was about to spread to his feet, the golden light blocked the spread of the black.
The two forces began to conflict, and he controlled Wang Shu's body and prepared the ritual, pressing his palm, which had been completely transformed into a tree, to the ground.
"Ritual - Survival Gift Ritual, LV5 - Reincarnation Puppet."
"Promotion ceremony?"
