"I imagine you're confused right now, aren't you?"
With the familiar voice coming from his ears, Teresa immediately turned around and happened to see Allen standing behind him. An expression of surprise immediately appeared on his face. "Did you save me?"
Allen smiled and shook his head, "No, I just brought your soul out."
"Soul?!"
Teresa Hearing this word, he subconsciously looked down at his milky white body without any substance as filling, and immediately understood that his current state could not be called "alive".
But at the same time, she was also surprised that she could still maintain consciousness, memory and thinking.
After all, souls only existed in certain religions and folklore before.
At least Teresa himself doesn't believe in a soul.
Otherwise, the top management of the organization would have been killed by countless evil spirits after they had done so many crazy things.
But now that the facts are before her eyes, she can't help but not believe it.
In order to confirm the current situation, Teresa tried to stretch out his arm to touch a stone pillar, but as expected, it went directly through it.
That extremely unreal feeling of emptiness made her finally realize that she was dead and now existed in the world as a soul. She sighed in a low voice, "So this is the soul? It's incredible!"
"Incredible? You haven't realized the real reason why your soul can survive the death of your body, haven't you?" Verena lowered his head and stared at two scary big eyes.
This move immediately made Teresa extremely nervous.
Especially the aura released inadvertently by the giant beast in front of her made her feel like a small animal encountering a natural enemy.
"Okay, don't scare Teresa, tell her about the cultivation method of soul power. Only when the soul strength reaches the minimum requirement, can I make a corresponding new body for it." Allen, standing aside, urged.
"Why are you anxious? For a rookie who knows nothing about the soul, I have to teach him from the most basic theoretical knowledge. This is a big project and will take at least several months to several years of work." Verena shook his huge head and spoke plausibly.
It can be seen from this posture that she has regarded Teresa in the soul state as her "toy" for a long time in the future.
Teresa undoubtedly noticed the teasing and playfulness of this huge Great Dragon, and quickly turned around and asked in an uncertain tone, "You mean... I thought I was resurrected?"
Allen nodded without thinking, "That's right! That's why I want you to always wear that ring. As long as the soul is intact, resurrection from the dead has never been difficult for me. In addition, you don't have to be afraid of Verena. She was created by me, and she is also a half-body that shares thoughts, memories and emotions with me, and will not attack others casually."
"What? You created it!"
Teresa's voice suddenly rose an octave, and he no longer looked as carefree as usual about everything. Instead, he opened his mouth in surprise.
Although she had long known that Allen was by no means an ordinary person, she still couldn't believe that the other party could actually create a terrifying monster like Great Dragon that only appeared in myths and legends.
"There is nothing to be alarmed about. My power is much stronger than you think. I can easily do many things that only gods can do in your eyes. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to inform you that Clare has voluntarily joined the organization and become the new Claymore trainee. And what she has fused is not Yoma's flesh and blood, but your flesh and blood."
Allen didn't hide anything and spoke openly about Clare's current situation.
Just as he expected, when he heard that Clare had joined the organization and became Claymore, Teresa's face changed drastically, and he immediately asked angrily, "Why don't you stop her? You should know what kind of organization the organization is! Her joining the training camp is a complete trick!"
"Sorry, this is a matter between you and her. There is no reason for me, an outsider, to get involved. What's more, with Clare's character, do you think she will listen to me?" Allen shrugged and asked.
moment!
The anger on Teresa's face disappeared, replaced by a helpless smile, "Haha, that's right. That child is as stubborn as a donkey. If she would listen to other people's advice, she would not choose to follow me all the time. Promise me to help me take care of her during this time, and don't let the darkness of the organization swallow her up."
"You don't need to tell me that I will keep an eye on you. As for you, just stay and exercise your soul strength. There is no need to worry about other things."
After saying this, Allen opened a portal and disappeared without a trace.
Seeing the space crack getting smaller and smaller until it finally disappeared, Teresa took a deep breath, turned his head and said to Great Dragon behind him, "I'm asking for your advice from today on. First of all, can you tell me where this place is?"
"This is Sky City - Aelionteu. As long as you fly to the platform outside, you can see its full view." Verena pointed to the platform outside for his entry and exit.
No hesitation!
Teresa stepped out of the arched hall at the top and walked to the huge flying platform outside.
moment!
A magnificent magical support appeared in front of her.
There are spiers shining with colorful lights, countless gorgeous decorations and buildings on both sides of the streets, breathtakingly beautiful gardens and courtyards, and intelligent races with all kinds of strange looks. Even in the sky, there are a large number of Great Dragon, griffins, chimeras, Hippogryph, Wyvern and other creatures flying around.
There are even huge groups of space battleships that look like islands at higher places.
As an ordinary woman who was born on a barren island, Teresa had no idea what words to use to describe her feelings at the moment.
Shocking!
Shocking!
Besides being shocked, it's still shocking!
She even thought that she was in heaven at this moment.
"How do you feel?" Verena slowly poked half of his head out from behind and asked.
"Unbelievable! Allen is the owner of this city?" Teresa's voice was trembling.
But Verena smiled and shook his head, "No! He is not only the master of this city, but also the creator and supreme master of this planet that you can see, and even the entire universe."
"You mean... he is a god?" Teresa's pupils suddenly dilated uncontrollably.
"Absolutely. But don't mention this word in front of him, because what Allen hates the most is God, and he even killed many guys who claimed to be gods for this reason." Verena yawned lazily, completely ignoring the looks of admiration or awe from the Great Dragon juniors.
After all, to a certain extent, all Great Dragon hatched by Sky City use her blood and can be regarded as her offspring and children.
"Since he has such a powerful power, what is the purpose of helping me resurrect? I don't think I am worthy of being saved and used." Teresa raised a question that troubled him.
Verena touched his chin with his front paws and thought for a few seconds, and finally answered with a smile, "Maybe it's because of the collection addiction, or maybe because I think you have the potential to become a strong person, but more likely it's just to pass the boring time. But in any case, this is a good thing for you. You can break out of the original constraints and look at what is happening in your world from a higher perspective."
"Well, it looks like I don't have much of a choice, does it?"
With that said, Teresa turned back to the middle of the arched hall, and began to try to control the power contained in his soul under the guidance of Verena, and use this as a basis for combat training.
Although Verena is not a qualified teacher, he is good at being able to retrieve a large amount of information from the database for assistance.
In addition, Teresa's own talent is quite high, so he started to enter the stage of simulated battle within a few days.
On the other side, Artoria, which has established a firm foothold in southern cities, has also developed a considerable number of Holy Light believers.
Whenever prayers begin in the chapel, thousands of people will gather here and pray with pious expressions.
As for why it spreads so fast, the reason is of course that when praying, Power of Holy Light will spread around and shine on everyone.
This kind of warm power not only gives people spiritual comfort and encouragement, but can also treat injuries and illnesses to a certain extent.
So it spread like this in the south, attracting a large number of ignorant people.
Just the money and items donated by believers every day can fill the entire chapel.
The original dilapidated house was transformed into a true religious center with the generosity of businessmen.
"Master Saintess, I have distributed all the uneaten food to the poor old people, women and children according to your instructions." A girl with short brown hair put one hand on her chest and bowed deeply.
From her humble attitude and the enthusiasm released in her eyes, it is not difficult to see Artoria's status among believers in this city.
brave!
just!
kindness!
mercy!
powerful!
Whenever Yoma appears around, this "Saintess" will immediately attack and kill them all with Power of Holy Light.
The most important thing is that although believers have donated so much money, she has never misappropriated a penny to spend on herself. Instead, she has used it all to help the poor and help them regain hope in life.
In the eyes of the girl, all this simply satisfied people's beautiful imagination of gods and their messengers.
In addition, as long as the inner belief is firm enough, no matter who it is, it is possible to obtain the favor of Holy Light and gain powerful power.
Similar situations have been reflected in many apprentices.
Artoria nodded approvingly. "Well done. Remember, Aria, path of Holy Light is the unremitting pursuit of light and the unswerving faith in your heart. It does not require you to worship a specific god, nor does it require you to offer anything to the god. You only need to keep doing what you think is right."
"Understood! Thank you for your teaching!"
The girl known as Aria once again put one hand on her chest and bowed to her mentor, while a faint golden light emitted from her palm.
There is no doubt that she has obtained the enlightenment of Holy Light and officially became an apprentice.
It's just that I haven't chosen yet whether to take the path of Priest or the path of Paladin.
However, judging from the girl's fanatical admiration for Artoria, she will probably become a heroic female knight.
After all, the power of role models is endless.
At present, all apprentices who can understand Holy Light, without exception, have decided to pick up the sword and become a Paladin who can confront Yoma head-on.
And because the whole city is immersed in an almost fanatical atmosphere, Holy Light condenses very quickly. Almost every apprentice who realizes the power of Holy Light will quickly increase his strength as long as he picks up a sword to protect civilians.
Such strong positive feedback immediately made them more convinced that they were on the right path.
If this southern city was not relatively far from Holy City in the middle of the island, it would not be long before a religious war broke out between the two sides.
Just when Aria was about to say something, a woman with double ponytails suddenly appeared at the door of the church.
Seeing this, the girl immediately stepped forward and explained, "Sorry, madam, our evening prayers have ended today. If you want to become a believer and participate in the ceremony, it is best to wait until tomorrow morning."
Unfortunately, this woman ignored Aria and walked straight in the direction of Artoria.
She looked so casual, and her arrogant eyes showed no respect at all, but instead were full of naked and undisguised aggression.
When the other apprentices who were busy cleaning and tidying up saw this, they immediately pulled out their swords and wanted to step forward to stop this unreasonable guy and teach him a lesson.
But before they could take actual action, Artoria raised his right hand to stop the behavior of apprentice Recklessness, and at the same time asked in a tone without any emotion, "Are you here to die?"
"Looking for death? Hahahahaha! Your tone is really quite serious."
As she spoke, this woman with double ponytails, who looked sexy and charming, laughed unbridled.
And as she laughed, two tails covered with sharp teeth suddenly extended from the bottom of her skirt.
"Demon...Yoma?!" The girl Aria showed a shocked expression.
"No! She is not an ordinary Yoma, but South Abyss - Luciela who is above Yoma and Awakened Beings. Please stand down, this is not a battle you can participate in." Artoria directly named the other party's identity.
Although she wasn't sure how this "South Cat" dared to come to her door, she didn't mind taking this opportunity to teach the other party an impressive lesson.
