Chapter 379

"Success … Success …!"

On the ceiling, Elise, who had successfully snatched the "Book of Intrigue" from Danas, revealed a joyful expression.

No one knew that Elise did not actually enter the Temple. Instead, after arriving here, she chose to climb up to the roof of the Temple and sneak in here. She had been observing the situation inside the Temple through the skylight.

She had no choice. There were always evil creatures roaring and running out of the Temple. Even if Elise could spy on the activities of the evil creatures through praying, she did not dare to enter the Temple from the entrance.

Shien and the others thought that Elise had already entered the Temple, but they had forgotten that this Saintess was actually very timid. How could she enter the Temple openly knowing that there were so many evil creatures in the Temple?

Wasn't that equivalent to delivering herself to her doorstep?

No way.

Therefore, this timid Saintess had a flash of inspiration. She climbed up to the roof of the Temple and waited for an opportunity to strike.

It had to be said that Elise's timing was indeed very good.

Thanks to this, Danas's "Book of Intrigue" fell into Elise's hands, causing the dark light on the magic book to dim and lose its effect.

Seeing this scene, in the Temple, Danas's eyes flashed with a touch of sharpness. He stretched out his hand and placed it on the shoulder of the little demon beside him.

The little demon's body suddenly emitted a weak magical fluctuation, causing several black shadows to suddenly rush down from the sky above the Temple.

"Be careful!"

"Lady Elise!"

Oz and Maffey, who were originally pleasantly surprised, saw the situation on Elise's side and immediately became shocked and angry.

"Ah!"

Elise let out a cry of surprise.

The main body of the black shadows that rushed down from the sky were a few flying monsters.

With violent and sharp roars, they pounced on Elise in unison.

In a panic, Elise wanted to use magic on them.

It was a pity that Elise's level was not high. She was only at level 40 and was no match for the monsters between levels 50 and 60.

"Bang!"

Not long after, with a crash, Elise was knocked down from the ceiling by a monster and fell into the Temple.

"Lady Elise!"

"Get lost!"

Maffey and Oz's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as they screamed. They broke through the evil creatures that surrounded them and wanted to rush toward Elise.

"Ah ah ah ah …!"

"Ah ah ah ah …!"

However, the evil creatures that surrounded the two seemed to have received instructions. Not only did they increase in number, but they also became fiercer and fiercer. They directly used their bodies to block the path of the two Orc Priests, causing them to be even more shocked and angry.

Just like that, Elise fell into the temple and smashed into the floor of the temple, becoming covered in dust.

A sharp pain struck Elise's entire body.

"It hurts …"

Elise sobbed with tears in her eyes, but she still hugged the book tightly in her arms.

So …

"I didn't expect us to meet in this way, Saintess Elise."

A figure arrived in front of Elise and looked down at her, who was lying on the ground, causing her body to stiffen.

"I'm sorry. Can I trouble you to return what belongs to me?"

Danasi said calmly. He looked so gentle and refined, but Elise felt a chill run down her spine. Not only did she not comply, she even hugged the demon book in her arms even tighter.

Seeing this, Danas's eyes turned cold. He waved his hand at the little Demon Warrior beside him, and one by one, the evil creatures began to slowly surround Elise.

Elise finally could not suppress the fear in her heart. She hugged the book and screamed.

Elyse could no longer suppress the fear in her heart. She screamed as she hugged the book.

"Bastard!"

Maffey and Oz desperately wanted to rush over, but they were blocked by the evil creatures again and again. They could only show anxious expressions.

Maffey and Oz desperately wanted to rush over, but they were blocked by the evil creatures again and again. They could only show an anxious look.

Danath ordered without any emotion. The evil creatures roared and rushed towards Elise.

Danas gave an emotionless order, causing the evil creatures to roar and pounce towards Elise.

Just like that, Elise was drowned by countless evil beings.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Both Maffey and Oz's eyes turned red, and their faces were filled with madness, causing them to roar hysterically.

Their minds were greatly shaken, and the demonic aura finally invaded their souls once more, causing them to walk towards madness.

Danas only watched the scene unfold mercilessly as he waited for the evil being to cut the Saintess into pieces. Then, he would take the Book of Intrigue from her corpse.

Danas didn't notice that a second before the army of evil creatures drowned Elise, a streak of light rushed over and arrived at Elise's location first, hugging her in his arms.

"Boom!"

An astonishing amount of magic power erupted like a volcano, gushing out from the army of evil creatures.

The magic power was like a storm, blowing away countless evil creatures and even the ceiling of the temple. It was like a pillar of air, shooting up into the sky.

"Ah ah ah …!"

Danath did not have time to react, and was blown away by the storm of magic power. He rolled on the ground like a piece of trash, looking extremely pathetic.

The evil creatures were also like pieces of trash, either smashing into the walls of the temple or being blown out of the temple.

In the end, even Oz and Maffey were not spared, and were thrown to the ground by the storm of magic power.

However, not only did they not feel angry, but they were also shocked and overjoyed.

In the center of the storm of magic power, the figure holding the Beastman Saintess appeared.

When the evil creatures rushed over, Elise had already closed her eyes with a pale face. When she came to her senses, she found that she was not torn to pieces, but fell into a familiar and warm embrace.

"You …"

Elise slowly opened her eyes. In the next moment, the face that she had secretly hated to the point that her teeth itched and her heart trembled in fear was imprinted in her eyes.

"I say, Saintess, actually, you don't have to spend so much effort to snatch that book. Instead of using this rare opportunity on that book, you might as well kill those disgusting old Demons with magic."

Holding the flashing red holy sword in one hand and holding Elise in the other, Shien glanced at the Foxman Saintess in his arms and suddenly smiled.

"Well, it's all thanks to you that we've finally gotten rid of those troublesome magical creatures. I should thank you for your help."

Hearing Shien's words, Oz and Maffey, who were thrown to the ground, looked around the entire temple subconsciously, and immediately found four wounded and dying demon gladiators lying on the ground in a corner of the temple.

Without the enhancement of the "Book of Plunder", the four demon gladiators were in a situation where their power had plummeted, and Shien seized the opportunity to defeat them in one fell swoop.

"When we go back, I'll ask La Xia to cook a delicious meal for you as a reward."

Shien smiled at Elise, and Elise looked at his face in a daze. After a while, her pretty face actually turned red.

This scene, Shien did not have the opportunity to pay his respects.

He had already retracted his gaze and cast it on Danas, who stood up shakily and only had the little demon with him.

"My demon gladiator …!"

Danas saw the four dying demon gladiators lying on the ground, and his expression changed dramatically.

But then, Danas was suddenly pushed down by the little demon beside him, and fell back to the ground again.

"Clang!"

Before Danas could react, a sword light suddenly flashed from the place where he stood a second ago, bringing with it a clear sound.

Danas only then reacted, and he was so scared that his hair stood on end.

"Bang!"

In the next second, a foot kicked heavily on Danas, who had fallen to the ground, and he was kicked away.

"Ah …!"

Danasi slammed heavily into the wall and spat out all the air in his lungs. He even spat out a mouthful of blood before sliding down the wall.

The little demon still wanted to rush to Danas' side, but she was grabbed by a hand and thrown in the direction of Oz and Maffei.

Oz and Maffei, who got up from the ground, quickly caught the little demon and controlled her regardless of her struggle.

Only then did Shien put down the red-faced Elise in his arms and cast his eyes on Danas.

"Quite a tough life, no wonder you can become the leader of a force of the Old Demons." Shien came in front of Danas and said with a smile: "I just don't know, does the great Old Demons have any other means? Huh? "

Shien raised the holy sword in front of Danas and pointed the tip of the sword at Danas' head.

Danas, who was lying on the ground, did not move. It was not until a while later that he smiled faintly.

It was not the kind of chuckle that seemed to be in control of the whole situation, but a kind of sneer that made people's hair stand on end.

Then …

"I really do have one."

Danas laughed as he let the voice ring out.

"I didn't want to use this method at first. After all, [Mirage] doesn't have as many members as [Slaughterer Faction], but now, it's time for them to sacrifice themselves for the greater good."

Danas' words made Shien's eyes narrow, and a bad feeling emerged in his heart.

"Sacrifice!"

But at this time, Danas suddenly raised his head and roared in the direction of the seal.

Over there, the group of old demons, who had been chanting incomprehensible spells around the crystal and had been ignored by everyone, suddenly took action.

They took out a small knife engraved with magical runes and stabbed it into their hearts without hesitation.

"Puchi!"

Neatly piercing sounds, the knives sank into the chests of the Old Demons.

Those old devils didn't even make a sound as they slowly fell to the ground, causing the chanting to come to an abrupt stop.

But the knives in their chests suddenly bloomed with a dazzling light, and the blood that flowed out of their chests turned into a dark air flow that was much thicker than before, and it rushed towards the crystal at an astonishing speed.

"Kacha … kacha kacha kacha …!"

The crystal cracked in response, causing countless cracks to appear in everyone's panicked expressions.

"Boom!"

Terrifying magical power once again gushed out from the crystal.

That day, the sky of Kosmos, changed.
