"Ah... ah ah... ah men..."

When the final, soaring note ended with a trembling final note, a baptism from an apostle of God completely transformed Heidewilli from a girl into a woman.

Then, the battle song rose again, and the angels, under the cover of night, displayed their majesty.

As the sun rises, its fiery rays pierce through the gaps in the trees, casting their light upon the couple embracing. The boy sleeps peacefully, while white wings gently cover the nun's body, as if protecting her faithful follower.

Bathed in light and color, even amidst the mess, an inexplicable sense of sacredness arose, as if they had completed a ritual that would please the Lord.

That sleep was so good...

As his eyelashes fluttered, Kevin, now awake, stretched slightly, his knuckles cracking. The warmth between his fingers and beneath him sent a chill down the spine of the previously drowsy boy.

"You're awake?"

Heidewilli struggled to sit up with a soft moan. Looking at the Angel's Feather covering her body for warmth, the little nun's face was full of gentleness and comfort, and even her voice revealed a hint of satisfaction in having accomplished a rescue.

Wait, what's going on? Wasn't it that green-haired guy who started the fire? How did it become you?

Kevin ran his hands through his short silver hair, rubbing it haphazardly until his head throbbed and he felt completely disoriented.

"Heidewilli... right? I'm sorry, this wasn't my intention. I only borrowed the Holy Grail for a few days, and I already told you not to come!"

The boy looked embarrassed and helpless, his expression troubled, almost scratching his scalp raw. Can anyone tell me what's going on?

However, the victim's family members were not only emotionally stable, but also smiled and embraced Kevin, gently patting his back to comfort him.

"Yes, it's alright. I know you're a good child who never intended to hurt anyone..."

"It's all the Lord's will. The shepherd sent the hounds to earth so they could be tempered..."

"Believe me, this is merely a test of piety, so I am willing to sacrifice myself to cleanse your sins..."

"My child, promise me you won't lose yourself..."

Holy crap! I've run into one! This is... a fanatic!

Kevin's eyes widened in horror; Heidewilli's thought process left him speechless.

Even after being assaulted, the nun continued to preach to him with intense gaze.

However, this belief was so pure and innocent that Kevin felt a little ashamed of his self-justification earlier and helplessly added a few more words.

"Okay... I'll find a way to atone for my sins..."

"... Or, after we've used the Holy Grail, we can return this green-haired guy to you... and then we'll be even?"

Kevin has always maintained a respectful distance from such fanatics, while Heidewilli's smile remains unchanged, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Just as Kevin was pondering how to distance himself from this troublesome situation, he subconsciously looked around, a strange thought popping into his head.

Wait a minute, the boy turned around in confusion and walked forward.

"Bang!"

The dark figure, who had climbed up a tree branch and was carrying a large, bluish-gray boulder, crashed to the ground with a hair's breadth of error.

"Hey, are you ever going to stop?! Attempting an assassination in broad daylight!"

Kevin was startled and hurriedly distanced himself, his expression one of annoyance and helplessness.

You deserve to die!

After several unsuccessful attempts to push the boulder, CC bared his teeth at the source of all evil with a look of deep resentment and frustration.

"Hey, Green Haired Pizza Girl, please speak with your conscience!"

"You were the one who maliciously set the fire, but the kind and devout nun beside me has willingly become the scapegoat."

"It's just looking at a naked body, it's not like I lost any weight. You've seen mine too, haven't you? Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you're so great. I'm still a minor!"

"So, when it comes down to it, we're splitting the score 50/50 at best. From now on, let's call it even, okay?"

Kevin rubbed his temples, choosing to reason with him.

"Let me kill you once first, then we're even."

CC's gaze was dangerous and gloomy, but despite several attempts, the boulder, deeply embedded in the ground, remained completely still.

Anyway, we signed this contract with our lives. If we kill this bastard once, maybe we can break our subservient relationship.

"Listen to this! Does that sound like something a human being would say?!"

Kevin was furious. To avoid leaving Heidewilli with any psychological trauma, he pulled the devout nun along as an ally and judge.

"Indeed, your request is a bit excessive..."

"Just die once! I'm experienced, I'm very steady on my feet! Anyway, this guy is practically immortal."

CC's malicious persuasion made Kevin so angry that he almost spat out the fragrant words stuck in his throat.

However, just as their bickering was beginning to escalate, a great earthquake shook the earth, and a violent roar spread like muffled thunder, causing flocks of birds to take flight and beasts to run wild in the forest.

As Kevin took off and looked around, he saw a giant centipede, five or six meters long, a dark and shiny giant scorpion, and a rhinoceros, seven or eight meters long and covered in scales, fleeing from the center of the forest in a grand procession.

Enemy situation unclear, run!

"Etc!"

After seeing the two adulterers exchange glances, CC hurriedly shouted as they prepared to leave.

"Please move this rock aside, I... I have a broken bone..."

Kevin looked down with a strange expression, somewhat amused and exasperated. What was this? Did he reap what he sowed, shooting himself in the foot?

P. S.: Chapter 420 is under review. To avoid disrupting everyone's understanding of the plot, I've posted the banned chapter in the group. You can join the group to find it in the group files. Group number: 547240280. Sorry everyone, it's backfired.

Chapter 422 A Handsome Guy from Skull Island Passing By

"Ouch, ouch, ouch... Slow down, you little brat, my leg bone has just healed..."

Kevin, who was leaping and darting among the tree branches, suddenly darkened his face and looked down at the Green-haired Witch in his arms with a cold smile.

"Shut up! If you keep talking, I'll throw you off this hill!"

Even so, Kevin slowed down as he flapped his wings, trying his best to avoid turbulence.

"Hmm, truly a devout follower of the Lord!" Heidewilli felt a surge of joy, and on her way to clear the Master Angel, she deliberately cast a halo around the cunning little guy.

At this moment, Kevin suppressed his aura and frowned deeply as he looked at the strange creature rushing below.

Plants and animals I've hardly ever seen on any maps? And they're growing like crazy, each one constantly adding points to its unique talent, making them no less formidable than those low-level Honkai Beast.

Before the plane crashed, I vaguely remember that this was... the Pacific Region?

Even if a precise anchor point wasn't fixed when the Spatial Rift was torn open, this place should still be not far from the location of the second mission.

"Bang!"

In the distance, the lake splashed water columns several meters high, and the roars and fighting sounds of beasts were deafening.

There's something there! Let's go check it out!

Kevin adjusted CC to a more comfortable position, nodded to Heidewilli, and then flapped his wings and flew away, with the devout nun naturally following closely in the messenger's footsteps.

As he parted the dense undergrowth, Kevin descended before the lake, his solemn gaze fixed on the center of its waters.

A giant gorilla, about 40 meters tall, stood upright, pounding its chest and roaring. Then, its thick arms reached into the water and began to grope around.

Soon, a red tentacle covered with suckers was pulled up by the gorilla's thick right hand, and the dark red octopus, which was tens of meters long, was forcibly dragged out of the water.

Aroused by its predatory instincts, the underwater tyrant immediately wrapped its eight arms around the black gorilla's arms, extending all the way to its neck, and then desperately tightened its grip, trying to strangle its terrifying opponent.

However, given the absolute difference in size and strength, the giant octopus's prized tentacles couldn't even penetrate the gorilla's needle-hard fur; they were merely massaging the beast.

Bang!

The gorilla reached out its left hand, ripped the octopus's other tentacle off its body, pulled it taut on both sides, and then stomped heavily on the octopus's head with a thick, hairy foot.

"Pfft!"

Like the sound of a plastic bag bursting, thick black ink splattered everywhere, almost staining half the lake black.

The foul-smelling organs and brain tissue sank to the bottom of the water. Piranhas, drawn by the scent of blood, swarmed in, but dared only to enjoy the feast before them, daring not to lay a finger on the gorilla.

"Behemoth! It's Behemoth! It must be the Lord who led us to His garden!"

Heidewilli's face flushed with excitement as she gazed at the enormous creature with awe and curiosity.

Behemoth, also known as "Behemoth," was born on the fifth day of creation, just like Leviathan, according to the Apocrypha.

The Book of Job in the Bible does not say that it was the first created being, but only that "He is the chief of the ways of God," meaning "it is the head of all that God has created."

It is the largest land creature, and legend has it that it can devour a thousand mountains every day. Compared to humans, who are born with original sin, Behemoth enjoys more of God's favor.

"Behemoth's enemy is the Kraken, the giant sea monster! The evil creature that attacks fishing boats in Norse mythology!"

"Sir, it won!"

Seeing her faith triumph, Heidewilli was as excited as a little girl who had received a toy, shaking Kevin beside her with great enthusiasm.

CC, nestled in the boy's arms, turned deathly pale amidst a series of cracking sounds, her cherry-colored lips glued together as if glued shut, only able to whimper for help.

You two are that old bastard God, sent here specifically to torment me, aren't you? I should have wiped out the Roman Papal Legion when I was Pope!

Unable to speak due to its owner's order to "shut up," CC became a grim-faced onlooker.

"Uh... um..."

Kevin, of course, didn't notice the witch in her dire straits. While giving Heidewilli a perfunctory answer, he stared at the enormous creature that was slowly turning around.

"Sir, it's looking this way!"

Heidewilli was not afraid at all, and excitedly grabbed Kevin's arm and shook it.

At this moment, the black gorilla carrying the takoyaki for breakfast crouched down slightly, taking an interest in the two hairless monkeys. Its golden pupils reflected a strange emotion.

"Roar!"

The black gorilla growled, switched the takoyaki to its left hand, and slowly extended its right index finger toward the tree branch where Kevin and the other two were hiding.

Heidewilli, dressed in a nun's habit, immediately reached out and embraced the thick, hairy finger with a pious and respectful expression.

The gorilla nodded slightly to the nun, grinning with a sinister smile.

When its gaze fell upon Kevin, the giant hesitated for a moment, then crouched down to be at the same height as the little guy in front of it.

After a brief exchange of facial expressions, the gorilla withdrew its finger, picked up the takoyaki, and walked away.

That's right! God's creations will surely protect the flock under His glory! And even in the face of angels, even Behemoth, we must still maintain reverence!

Heidewilli pumped her fist excitedly, her faith growing stronger, while her gaze toward Kevin was filled with fervor and reverence.

However, Kevin was clearly too preoccupied with Heidewilli's increasingly fanatical path to pay attention to her at this moment. His mind was racing with the sound of gears turning, and a clear electronic voice immediately followed.

"The first stage of the Seven Trials: The Holy Grail War is complete. Memory Fragment x1, sent..."

"Search target location -- South Pacific, Skull Island..."

"Guardian King Kong discovered, Calamity Mission activated, Seven Trials, Second Stage - [***Hymn]!"

"Insufficient information, please investigate on your own..."

Here we go again! Kevin frowned deeply, his thoughts sinking into his mind, searching for the gradually gathering purplish-red Memory Fragment, wanting to peruse the information within.

Unexpectedly, the chains and lock markings that appeared kept Kevin, who desperately wanted to know about his origins, out.

"Friendly reminder: To ensure the integrity of the memory fusion, please use all seven fragments at once after collecting them."

How cunning! I knew it, this heartless mastermind wouldn't give away any benefits so easily!

The familiar routine made Kevin scoff and complain. At the same time, Diva composing music in a dark room sneezed loudly.

The boy, with a "what's done is done" attitude, prepared to look down at the jungle below, only to find the Green Haired Witch foaming at the mouth in his arms staring at him and Heidewilli with teary eyes.

After exchanging glances several times, the angel and the believer finally reached the same answer.

"Hey, are you... in the middle of needing to pee?"

In the witch's gaze, which was filled with "gratitude" to the point of wishing to die together, a slender, white middle finger, signifying "friendship" and "greetings," tremblingly rose up.

At this very moment, a weathered giant ship gradually cuts through the waves and approaches the shore.

So what if I kicked a director who tried to sexually harass me and smashed his balls? Let him freeze my career, I'll just make a low-budget documentary!
