Chapter 266
They only knew that there was a powerful supporter behind Rossweisse, an existence that they could not compete with in any case. Even Pope Augustus was nothing more than a humble ant in front of this kind of power.
What would you choose if you didn't choose to surrender in this situation? Don’t want your life anymore?
Looking at the kneeling figures on the ground all around, enjoying the worship of everyone, Rossweisse's body was trembling slightly. She was not afraid, but excited.
This is the picture she wants to see.
Her vanity was unprecedentedly satisfied at this time.
What she likes most is the admiration and praise of everyone. She used to get all this when she was with Lord Jero, using her identity as a hero's lover, but with the death of Lord Jero, all of this disappeared.
After the second-generation brave Qin Chu appeared, she originally wanted to use Qin Chu to regain the glory she had lost, but Qin Chu, a guy with no vision, actually fell in love with a humble maid.
Instead of getting the glory, he was humiliated in public.
Rossweisse has always held a grudge against these things in her heart.
But now, she has gained more.
This was the first time Rossweisse knew about her life experience. She didn't expect her origins to be so great.
I don't know how long the whole process lasted. Just when the people kneeling around felt that their bodies and spirits were about to be unable to support themselves, the scarlet light finally gradually dissipated behind Rossweisse.
The thick dark clouds in the sky gradually disappeared, and the lightning and thunder no longer appeared.
The hazy starlight enveloped the world again.
The coercion no longer existed, but everyone around him was still kneeling on the ground. They looked at each other, and no one dared to get up.
Seeing the esteemed bishops, archbishops, and deputy heads of the Holy See around her looking like this, Rossweisse felt unprecedentedly satisfied. This was how she felt.
It was as if she felt that she was really the aloof queen, powerful in all directions.
"Gentlemen, please stand up."
A voice full of dignity and pride came from Rossweisse's mouth. After receiving Rossweisse's consent, more than twenty people stood up from the ground. Looking at Rossweisse, although she still looks like the saint she once was, her figure has not changed at all, she is even and delicate.
The clothes she wears are still those of a saint, but the feeling is different from before.
At this moment, Rossweisse seemed to be filled with an astonishing charm, like a enchanting witch, seducing everyone's attention.
Rossweisse seemed to sense everyone's weirdness, and smiled slightly.
That smile captivates a country and captivates all living beings.
I don't know how many people felt that their heartbeats were inexplicably speeding up, and some even dared not look at Rossweisse's stunning face.
Immediately, Rossweisse closed her eyes slightly, and the astonishing charm on her body gradually subsided, and after a few seconds, she returned to the innocent and pure appearance of the saint.
However, this change made everyone even more frightened.
Douglas seemed to have regarded himself as Rossweisse's deputy, and his face was filled with morbid excitement: "You all feel it, right?"
"We are just following the will of the gods. Augustus is the real traitor, traitor and evil thief!"
"That bastard controlled Saint Phyllis and wanted to manipulate Rossweisse-san through Saint Phyllis."
"We will never allow this to happen."
"We will overthrow the blasphemer Augustus."
"Overthrow Augustus!" a group of bishops, archbishops, and paladins followed Douglas's voice in shouting.
However, the divine power has faded.
The fear just now is gone, and the minds of these old fools have begun to come alive. On the one hand, there is indeed a powerful existence behind Rossweisse as support. On the other hand, they are controlled by Rossweisse and Douglas, so obedience is the only way. choose.
On the other hand, I also feel that if Augustus is overthrown and Rossweisse is supported in power, what can a little girl understand?
By then, aren’t they the ones who have the final say in the entire Holy See?
A group of people happily formed an alliance despite their own agendas.
"Everyone..." After everyone gradually calmed down, Douglas spoke again: "Currently, our most important task is to find the location of Saint Phyllis and rescue the mother of Her Highness the Goddess."
"Otherwise, when Augustus takes Saint Felice as a hostage, we will be tied up."
"Augustus seems to have a secret room, and Saint Phyllis is likely to be imprisoned there."
Mother?
This title made Rossweisse frown.
She grew up without a mother and was raised by nuns.
The word mother was very unfamiliar to her. Although Saint Felice seemed to be a very powerful person, she had no feelings for Felice after all.
She even felt inexplicably irritable, and an idea came to her mind involuntarily: How wonderful it would be if there was no dirty human blood of Saint Phyllis in her body, but only the blood of gods.
No matter how outstanding Phyllis is, she is only a human being. Having human blood flowing through her body is simply a stain on her nobility and sanctity.
…
"My favorite child..."
On the other side, in the hero's palace, Athena suddenly stood up, her plump body undulating slightly.
The chestnut eyes swept around, and the face looked extremely solemn. The pink lips shouted sharply: "Who is it?"
"Come out!"
The magic wand has appeared in the palm of the hand, and the magic power is surging. The fluctuation caused by it blows the curtains. Under the reflection of the moonlight, the room is shadowy and inexplicably a little gloomy.
In the room, there is no one else except herself.
Only the candlelight is jumping slightly, dispelling the darkness in the room.
Athena's throat moved slightly, and the depression in her heart did not weaken at all, and even became stronger. The sound she just heard in her ear was not an illusion.
She didn't even know where the voice came from, but she knew that the voice was not kind. Although the voice sounded gentle and not violent, it made Athena instinctively afraid.
Huh...
At this moment, a cold wind blew, and everything in the room began to decay at a speed visible to the naked eye, whether it was the bed, the floor, the desk... The gray traces of decay began to spread like blood vessels on the snow-white walls.
Athena's body trembled, and a voice echoed in her ears with the wind:
"My dearest child..."
"Will you accept my power?"
This time, Athena heard it more clearly than before. The strong fear in her heart made Athena's scalp almost explode. Her white neck was squirming quickly. She knew that an indescribable, powerful and terrifying existence had been watching her.
This was definitely not a pleasant thing for Athena.
Sweeping her eyes, a large area of dark green and dark red, like fine dust, had been accompanied by the wind and poured into her room. Athena thought it was dust, but when she looked closely, she found that it was a small insect thinner than a hair.
Densely crowded into a group and squirming constantly, that scene only made Athena's fair skin instantly covered with goose bumps and numbing scalp. She made the most correct decision at this time. Without any hesitation, Athena turned her head and wanted to leave the room.
However, just as Athena walked to the door and even before she had time to open the door, she saw a large number of tiny insects coming in from the crack of the door close to the ground like smoke, and quickly spread in the room.
In an instant, the tiny insects were everywhere around Athena's body.
There were so many of them that almost all the places Athena could see were filled with these tiny insects.
Athena didn't know who was staring at her, but she knew that it was definitely an existence that she could not resist.
But even so, Athena was unwilling to give in.
Gritting her teeth, Athena opened her hands, and a red magic shield instantly surrounded her whole body, leaving no gaps.
At the moment the magic shield was just opened, a large number of insects immediately attached to the magic shield. For a while, the red color was even covered by these insects. At a close distance, Athena could clearly see the appearance of these insects.
They looked like flies with long bellies, but they were smaller and had two sharp teeth on their heads.
At the moment when these bugs attached to the magic shield, the power of the flame shield was activated automatically, and clusters of flames directly burned these bugs into ashes.
But before Athena could breathe a sigh of relief, another layer of bugs attached.
These tiny bugs used their sharp teeth to constantly gnaw at the magic shield.
Crunch...
The weird and extremely unpleasant sound kept drilling into Athena's ears, making Athena feel a burst of pain in her brain.
Even though the flame shield was extremely strong, it seemed that it was about to collapse under the dense bites of the bugs. A few cracks had begun to appear on the magic shield, and it seemed that it might be completely broken at any time.
In front of her was the visual and auditory impact brought by countless bugs... On the other side, in the deepest part of Athena's consciousness, she was also suffering from the erosion of evil.
"Accept my power..."
"Accept my power..."
"Accept my power..."
That mysterious voice, like a huge bell, exploded in Athena's mind. It was like a tiny whisper, echoing in Athena's ears.
It was like a lover's whisper, and like the angry roar of a beast.
"Get out...get out..." The pain in her mind made Athena unable to control herself. The magic wand in her hand fell to the ground, and she hugged her head with both hands, making the sharpest cry: "Ah..."
The mysterious voice made Athena feel that her soul was about to be torn into pieces.
Along with the distorted voice, Athena seemed to see countless dense dark green silk threads, like iron wire worms wriggling in her brain, they seemed to want to penetrate her soul.
Every time the voice in the deepest part of consciousness echoed, the degree to which the soul was affected, interfered with, and eroded increased.
"Accept my power..."
"My dearest child..."
"Child...power...power...child...child..."
The voice became more and more chaotic, countless voices echoed in her mind at the same time, and the echoes entangled together and became particularly complicated.
Athena had a feeling that it wouldn't be long before her consciousness would be completely infiltrated and her soul would be completely eroded, and by then she would become a puppet manipulated by that mysterious being.
Her thinking ability is becoming sluggish, and even her consciousness is becoming lazy.
Stop resisting, it's not something you can resist. Accept it honestly, maybe this is your destiny.
Aren't you tired of living such a hard life? Jie Luo might just be deceiving you, and even Qin Chu... Qin Chu?
Suddenly, Athena raised her head, and a strong struggle flashed through her maroon eyes filled with chaos...
No, it won't sink like this.
She is Athena, a great mage, and she will never give in so easily!
The next moment, her fingers grabbed a sharp dagger directly from the storage ring, her eyes filled with madness.
Athena's hands didn't hesitate for even half a second. She grasped the handle of the knife tightly, and with a pop, the sharp blade directly penetrated one of her slender and soft thighs.
Did it hit a bone?
A bright red blood arrow shot out instantly.
The dark magic robe was directly dyed dark red.
Immediately afterwards, a hint of ferocity flashed in Athena's eyes, and the short knife that penetrated the flesh tore along the curve of the thigh.
The wound, which was half a foot long, was dripping with blood.
A pair of long legs were almost submerged in a pool of blood.
The strong smell of blood filled the room.
But not only was there no pain on Athena's face, there was even some weird excitement. With a click, the short knife in her hand fell to the ground, and Athena sat down on the ground and gasped.
The dense flying insects in front of me disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
The weird and twisted murmurs in his ears also disappeared completely at this time.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……
At this moment, Athena even had the urge to laugh.
She didn't know what the existence that wanted to erode her soul was... But... this time, I won.
You know, idiot, this lady won.
Want to erode this lady’s soul? Phew, not that easy.
boom!
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open, and Qin Chu's figure appeared at the door.
He was originally preparing to go to bed with Sylph downstairs.
