She clasped her hands and placed them in front of her chest. She said hesitantly, "Why … Why can't I do it just because I'm a Holy Maiden candidate?"
She was thinking that if Scholar Calvin forced her to stay, she might be able to defeat him.
The self-defense skills that I learned in the [Academy of the Freedom City] … are they finally going to be put to good use?
"Because you have the remaining power of the holy ritual in your body," Scholar Calvin said seriously, "This power can help me save Robert."
"Robert?" Sister Selene was stunned. She looked at the severely injured person on the table. "Him?"
"Robert is my nephew." Calvin said something that shocked the nun. "Perhaps it was the guidance of the will of faith that led you to bring Robert to me … Sister, I need the power in your body."
Sister Selene shook her head hesitantly. "I'm sorry. I … I don't really understand. Also, there are many candidates for the Holy Maiden. Do you really need me? "
She did not want to be involved in trouble, but if it was to save someone … She had to do this for the sake of the [Saint].
"I don't need you. I just happen to have you here." Scholar Calvin said directly, "Every girl who participated in the Holy Maiden Ceremony and passed the baptism of the holy ritual will have the power of the holy ritual in their body stay for a short period of time. As time passes, it will become weaker and weaker until it disappears. This process usually takes two to three years. Of course, there are many candidates for the Holy Maiden, but you're right in front of me. Do you understand, sister? "
"He … Is Mr. Robert's condition very serious?"
"Yes, it's very serious." Scholar Calvin nodded. "The ointment that I applied on him can only delay it for a while. I need this little bit of time to find a girl with the remaining power of the holy ritual in her body. Sister, I hope that you're the one I find. Actually, I didn't even have much hope. Robert might not be able to survive until dawn. "
"What do I have to do?" Sister Celine took a deep breath, her expression determined.
"You don't even want to ask about the cause and effect?" Calvin asked solemnly.
Sister Selene smiled bitterly. "Mr. Calvin, didn't you say that I don't have a first choice … But? I only participated in saving people? Then I left immediately and continued with my first choice. Otherwise? I'm afraid I can only use it on you. I used self-defense skills that I had never used before. So, what should I do? "
Calvin asked, "You're coming over? He took Robert's hand in his. I will help you trigger the remaining power of the holy ritual in your body … Hurry up. "
He stepped aside.
Sister Celine took another deep breath and gritted her teeth. Step forward resolutely? He followed Scholar Calvin's instructions and held Robert's hand with both of his hands.
"Now, let us begin our usual prayers."
Sister Nun nodded and held Robber's hand. Pressing it against his forehead? She said softly, "Although we don't know each other, I hope you are safe and sound. Poor man … Amen."
She slowly closed her eyes.
Scholar Calvin looked at Sister Seline in surprise. He suddenly asked, "Why did you only get fifth place in the previous tournament?"
Miss Nun said calmly: "I'm not God's Chosen? My prayers have always been weak … Does it matter? "
"It doesn't matter." Scholar Calvin shook his head. Then, he said seriously, "Let's begin."
"Okay."
The nun closed her eyes again and prayed with all her heart. Calvin was standing behind the nun at this time.
A broken blade fell from his hand. Suddenly, it slid down from his sleeve … Scholar Calvin held the broken sword tightly in his hand and murmured something. Then, his gaze froze. He stabbed the broken blade into Sister Seline's back.
A stab to the back? Sister Seline opened her eyes abruptly. She felt a sharp pain accompanied by a terrifying sense of being pulled away from her body.
Under the effects of the sharp pain and the sense of being pulled away from her body, Sister Seline seemed to see a dazzling world.
Her conscious body in the dazzling world seemed to have fallen into a cold lake. She felt her body sinking and being swallowed by the abyss at the bottom of the lake.
Sister Seline was instantly engulfed by fear and suffocation.
Death.
…
Ha —!
She took a deep breath.
Driven by her instincts, she greedily inhaled fresh air for her exhausted body. Sister Seline even started to cough violently.
She choked on water. She woke up in a very shallow pool!
A pure white world and an endless pool that was barely above a normal person's knee. Sister Seline crawled up in fear.
Outside the pure white world, she couldn't even see anything.
However, it seemed like she was not the only one in the pool. Under the swaying water, Sister Seline looked at a person lying in the pool with an inconceivable gaze.
Many, many people, densely packed, lined up neatly, just under her feet, stretching all the way.
Sister Selene wanted to scream, but she quickly covered her mouth … This place was so quiet that she could hear the sound of her heartbeat!
"You did the right thing by holding back."
"Who is it?!"
Faced with the sudden sound, Sister Selene looked around nervously … But she couldn't see a second person who woke up from the pool.
"Close your eyes first."
"Why?!"
"If you don't want to face death, do as I say. I'm going to drag you into my room. Quick, they are coming," the voice sounded again in Sister Seline's head.
The voice sounded a little anxious. Sister Seline was helpless and could only follow the instructions. She slowly closed her eyes, took a deep breath, pinched her nose and sank into the pool again.
"Open your eyes."
Sister Seline quickly opened her eyes when she heard the voice but was stunned by what she saw.
At this time, she appeared in a church. How did she suddenly appear in a church? At this moment, she was even pinching her nose.
"Welcome to the mezzanine of consciousness."
This time, the voice sounded as though it had materialized. Sister Seline turned around and saw a boy whose height reached her waist. He had white hair, white brows, and gray pupils.
The boy was wearing a loose robe that didn't fit him at all.
"You are?"
"You can call me …" The boy with white brows and gray pupils smiled and said, "Medanzo."
"Medanzo?" Sister Seline frowned, trying to search for information about the name.
However, the boy smiled and said, "You have never heard of my name before. You can only hear my name and my voice here, Sister Seline."
"You … You know me?" Sister Selyn's face was filled with astonishment.
"I know you. I've witnessed your life, from your birth to your present." The boy named Medanzo nodded slowly. "I've witnessed everyone who was born in the Holy Light Kingdom."
"This … What is this …" Sister Seline clenched her fist and placed it before her chest. She looked around anxiously — the church.
The church was consecrating an angel.
It was a statue of an angel with thirty-six wings, and on the feathers of each wing was an eye … an angel statue with countless eyes!
"I've said it before, this is a mezzanine of consciousness," the boy said slowly. "To be exact, this is a transfer point between the Petitioner's Tower and the Destiny System."
"I … Why am I here?" Sister Seline hesitated. "I know about the Destiny System, but … but what is the Petitioner's Tower?"
The boy said, "Before I answer your questions, are you prepared to know everything? Calvin should have told you about this. If you don't cause any trouble, you only need to stay here. Soon, you will wake up again. Then, you will leave Calvin's home and forget everything that happened tonight. "
"I …"
An enormous desire for knowledge was madly attacking the determination in Sister Seline's heart … It was as if it was her instinct. Her instinct was driving her to open her mouth and ask the boy everything he knew.
The countless eyes on the 36 winged angel statue seemed to have opened. All of them were looking at her, waiting for her answer.
Finally, after coming to a decision, Sister Seline slowly sighed. "I … I am only trying to save someone."
The white haired and white browed boy was not surprised by her answer. However, he suddenly asked, "You don't even know what Calvin and Robert did. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? For the sake of saving someone, you don't care if it is good or bad … Perhaps, Calvin and Robert are doing something that is not good for the Holy Light Kingdom. As for you, by saving someone, you might become an accomplice. "
Sister Seline shook her head. "Although this is my first time meeting this Mister Robert and also my first time coming to Mister Calvin's home, I can feel that they … love life very much. They have a very pure belief in their hearts. They are not bad people."
"Oh?" The boy nodded. Then, he said, "Your senses are quite sharp. This is a kind of talent … Otherwise, your consciousness would not be able to reach this place. All right, I know your choice. Sister Seline, before you wake up, just stay here. They will not be able to find this place. "
"They … are referring to?"
The boy smiled casually and said, "Of course, it is the Destiny System's willpower guards. They always like to bite me and not let me go."
Sister Seline opened her mouth. She subconsciously wanted to ask something.
However, the boy winked at her. Sister Seline instantly understood what he meant. Then, she tightly pursed her lips.
The boy also revealed a faint smile.
"I … Can I pray here?" Sister Seline suddenly asked.
"There is nothing wrong with that," the boy said calmly. "However, praying here is actually useless. Of course, you should still be able to comfort yourself. Do you still want to pray here? "
Sister Seline nodded. "The Saint of the City of Freedom has fallen. The Saint will be resurrected on the third day of the calamity. I … I also want to contribute my strength. "
"Resurrection on the day of calamity," the boy seemed to be muttering. "If back then, there was someone who was willing to …"
"What did you say?"
The boy shook his head. "Just stay here. Remember not to look at the eyes of the statue … Remember."
After saying that, the strange boy slowly disappeared before Sister Seline's eyes.
Sister Seline subconsciously went to look for him. She looked around the church … Her gaze soon moved to the 36 winged angel statue.
However, she instantly remembered what the boy had told her to say. She hurriedly closed her eyes and turned around. Her back was facing this strange … strange 36-winged angel statue.
The interlayer of consciousness, the Petitioner's Tower … Destiny System …
Sister Seline suddenly shook her head and muttered to herself, "Don't think about it, don't think about it … Don't think about it."
However, they were still lingering in her consciousness.
…
…
Franci Hotel, in the corridor of the floor reserved by Mr. President.
The man in sunglasses walked to the door of a room … In front of the door, there was another man standing guard.
"Is there anything wrong?" the man in sunglasses asked casually.
"This door has never been opened," the guard said casually. "However, the soundproofing of this room is really good. I can't hear anything from inside."
"I'll go in and take a look." The man in sunglasses said, "It should be about time … Let's see who this guy who sneaked in is. Let's see if he is qualified to be our companion."
Hearing that, the guard swiped the key card and opened the door … At the moment when the door was opened, a figure suddenly rushed out.
The man in sunglasses reacted quickly. In an instant, he used his knee to hit the figure that rushed out.
However, he didn't manage to knock the other party down. The man in sunglasses even had his thigh grabbed tightly … The guy in front of him let out a low roar like a wild beast. He opened his mouth wide and wanted to bite the man in sunglasses.
"What's going on?!"
The man guarding the door immediately shivered and quickly hugged the crazy guy from behind and pulled him away.
The man in sunglasses frowned. He looked into the room and saw traces of destruction everywhere … Even the guy who was originally handcuffed to the chair was flipped to the ground at this time.
Looking at the crazy guy at this time, the guard quickly said, "I can't hold this guy down … What should I do?"
The man in sunglasses frowned and signaled the guard to let go of Assaches … The moment he let go, he quickly kicked Assaches directly into the room. The guard quickly closed the door of the room again.
The two stood outside the corridor and saw the confusion on each other's face.
"Could it be … the dosage used is too heavy?" The guard asked hesitantly.
"The dosage is normal." The man in sunglasses shook his head.
The guard thought for a while and said, "That is to say, this guy is not used to the [Holy Water]? How unlucky, to encounter it with a one in a million probability? What should we do now? Robert is still locked up with this guy? Robert was the same. After the second injection, he actually went crazy as well, as if he had gone mad! What's going on! Fache … Is there a problem with the [Holy Water]? "
The man in sunglasses … Fache said expressionlessly, "There is no problem with the [Holy Water]. If there is a problem, how can you still stand here normally?"
"That's true …" The guard nodded, "What about now?"
Fache said quickly, "I'll go see the president."
