Above Pearl Lake, thick smoke covered the sky and made everything dark like ink dripping into the pool.
Grant and several others flew above the smoke, surrounded by holy light. With aloof indifference on their faces, they looked down at the now-shattered Pearl Lake below.
-At this moment, the entire lake has disappeared. It seemed as if some terrifying creature had descended here, clawing out a large hole from the ground. The collapse spread from it, extending all the way to the east, forming a winding and complex deep valley.
Thick smoke rose from the collapse, carrying a strong smell of gunpowder and maybe... blood.
“This is what happens when you disobey God’s will.”
Bishop flew right behind Grant. He first looked at the collapse below with satisfaction, then looked sideways at Grant and spoke with a flattering tone.
Grant didn't seem particularly satisfied. He was silent for a moment and suddenly asked: "Was that person also in this tunnel when it was detonated?"
The bishop was stunned and immediately replied: "Probably not. When the Black Nightmare Army captured Coster, the demon was also present. He is probably still with Coster now."
"What about Her Majesty the Princess?"
"We didn't detonate the explosive until she left the tunnel." The bishop quickly added, "We carved that mark in her spirit and can sense her exact location at any time. There will be no mistake. Don't worry, after all, she She is already the new queen, how can we let her die in vain?"
Grant also nodded and said, "She is still valuable. Bring her back as soon as possible."
"The mark is there, you don't have to worry about that."
Grant snorted coldly, said nothing, and looked down again. The devastated earth reflected in his eyes looked extremely hollow. From the beginning to the end, his expression was like a pool of stagnant water. No matter how many enemies were buried in the tunnel below, there was no change.
After watching for a moment, he waved and turned around as if he suddenly became impatient.
"Let's go, there's nothing to see anymore."
The bishop also nodded.
Although he was still a little reluctant to give up and wanted to appreciate their masterpiece for a while longer - the Black Nightmare Army that had been dominating the Kingdom of Hori for so long was finally caught by them and defeated in one fell swoop. Speech. But... sinners are sinners, they are just replacing God to carry out the punishment they deserve.
As for the cleanup work after the tunnel was blown up, let's deal with it slowly later.
However, just when they were about to leave the Pearl Lake area, the bishop suddenly took out a cross and held it in his hand. After sensing it for a while, a puzzled look quickly appeared on his face.
Grant and other priests also stopped flying.
"how?"
The bishop put down the cross, looked at Grant, and said hesitantly: "According to the induction... the Queen's position seems to be rapidly approaching us."
When Grant heard this, an unknown emotion flashed in his eyes.
"How quickly?"
"In the whole world... that devil should be the only one with such speed."
Grant nodded: "It seems he discovered it."
"Impossible, no one can discover the mark we left, not even him." The bishop showed a strange look, "Unless...unless the mark becomes unstable and reveals itself, but in this case, only It only happens when Her Majesty is extremely excited."
He suddenly felt uneasy. The demon flew over with the queen. This was not part of their plan. The fact that the queen was manipulated by them should continue to be concealed.
If the other person becomes aware of the imprint, things can start to get troublesome.
"Is this important?" Grant seemed to be nonchalant, suddenly raising his head and looking in a certain direction in the sky, "What's important is that we are going to meet soon."
"Meet… "
The bishop felt even more uneasy.
It was hard for him to imagine what amazing things that demon would do in a rage after seeing the tunnel collapse. Therefore, even if he stayed next to Grant, he didn't feel much safe.
"His Majesty the Pope, we'd better leave here first. It's not easy to confront him right now." He said subconsciously.
"I don't think so." Grant seemed to be a little excited, "Why should we avoid him? Since he led Her Majesty the Queen into a trap, then we can just get him back."
Upon hearing this, the bishop swallowed his saliva and said nothing more. Instead, he turned his head and looked in the same direction of the sky as Grant.
About five minutes later.
An ice ship rushed out of the thick smoke in the sky, like a cannonball rushing out of the clouds, heading straight for Grant and the others! At the top of the ice ship deck, Benjamin stood like a mast, his eyes piercing through the holy light that enveloped everyone in the church and falling on everyone.
Except for Grant, everyone else invariably felt a chill behind them.
Accompanied by the surging holy light, Grant suddenly spread his hands and tapped lightly towards the ice ship. Then, the holy light turned into a translucent wall, blocking them in front of them.
The speeding ice ship braked instantly and stopped not far away, without directly hitting it.
"you… "
The bishop opened his mouth and wanted to shout something, but was interrupted by Benjamin's next move.
"What did you do to her?"
Benjamin raised his hand and directly picked up the princess and brought her into their sight. The princess was grabbed by her ankles, wailing and shaking weakly, but she did not win any sympathy from Benjamin.
When everyone in the church saw the princess, they looked at each other and couldn't help but show troubled expressions.
"How brave! Do you know who you are catching now? Her Majesty the Queen! You are the devil's lackey, please let Her Majesty go quickly!" The bishop took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and shouted sternly.
"Huh... Her Majesty the Queen? She's just another puppet. Have you ever truly regarded her as a queen?" Benjamin said coldly with an iceberg-like face.
Grant narrowed his eyes.
"Return His Majesty to us, maybe you still have a chance to leave alive." He said slowly, "Otherwise, you can go down and be buried with your army."
Hearing this, Benjamin clenched his fists. He glanced at the collapse below with a complicated expression, but soon, his eyes returned to the church members, as if he wanted to eat everyone alive.
He shook the crying princess again.
"You want her alive, right?" There was some suppressed emotion in his voice, "Do you really think I will give her to you? Do you dare to do it? If she dies, you... seem to be looking for her too. Can’t you think of a better puppet?”
