The Demon King's figure, having made up his mind, disappeared once again. He moved rapidly, heading straight for Ilios.

Ilios, her face hidden by her hair, opened one hand, and a magic book appeared out of thin air in her hand.

"Prayer: Bilirui's Cathedral!"

The magic book vanished, and the next moment, a semi-transparent palace appeared. The palace's appearance was strikingly similar to a cathedral.

The Demon King's body sank, and his speed drastically reduced. This time, it wasn't the wind obstructing him.

Within the range of Bilirui's Cathedral, the gravity experienced by enemies increased.

A magic book appeared out of thin air.

"Prayer: Alice's Dream!"

Four knights, entirely clad in armor, appeared. They drew their blades and charged towards the Demon King at a speed second only to his.

The knights' existence lasted for half an hour. Each knight possessed a strength of around level 21.

This wasn't the end. Ilios was truly angered this time. She would make the Demon King understand the consequences of angering a woman.

The generations of accumulation within the cathedral were finally about to bloom under Ilios's hand.

"Edict: Alexia's Holy Sword!"

A small sword, like a toy, began to glow.

"Edict: Latin's Redemption!"

In total, Ilios activated nine one-time use items. Some were the remnants of a previous Bishop's strength before his death, while others were forged.

But without exception, they all possessed immense power.

These were the things the royal family truly feared, and what the Demon King absolutely had to force Ilios to use.

The Demon King was entangled by the four knights. The next moment, a blade, appearing from nowhere, pierced his body. The powerful regeneration brought by the Black Energy was also restricted by something unknown.

Blocking the knights' attack once more with his hand, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of black blood. The blood dripped onto the ground, corroding a small pit.

The Demon King, who was originally on the offensive, was now retreating steadily.

The heavily injured Ilios, however, had fully recovered her status. She held the previous generation's staff, with an Angel at her back.

Just as Chen Yi thought the battle would continue, the sound of neat footsteps came from the side. The Royal Court's guards appeared with nuns and Clerics.

The others in the cathedral hadn't failed to notice the explosions here; they were merely intercepted by guards who had ambushed them nearby beforehand.

The nuns, who had entered a weakened state, were easily captured by the guards, while other powerful clerics fell under the siege of multiple guards.

Further away, Grand Duke Anna was killing demonic beasts amidst the cheers of the civilians.

The civilians had all gone to the city walls to watch the empire defeat these demonic beasts, but they didn't notice that there was no one from the church among them.

Looking at the blood-stained nuns and clerics, Ilius's hand holding the staff trembled slightly.

The knights who were besieging the Demon King were suddenly attacked.

"Ice Spike Technique!"

"Flame Burst!"

"Triple Slowness!"

The spells announced the identities of those mages.

The Mage Association had also entered the fray. Under the suppression of the church, the mages who pursued truth had been oppressed for too long.

From the fact that Chen Yi could get magic books from the Mage Association for free, it could be seen that the Mage Association's support for the empire was significant.

To defeat the church, the royal family was trying to win over everyone they could.

Therefore, the church had no chance of winning this battle!

The church fell silent for a moment, with only the Demon King still fighting the four knights.

Even the sound of the wind blowing seemed harsh.

Ilius looked around blankly, and everyone he saw was his enemy.

"God, tell me what to choose."

This was just a habitual utterance, but it caused Ilius, who had never received a divine revelation, to suddenly become dazed.

In her eyes, the surrounding environment changed.

Gentle light shone down, soothing her inner anxiety, unease, and anger. Ilius felt an unprecedented warmth.

It was as if she had arrived in the kingdom of God described in the Bible.

The light formed a human figure before her eyes. She couldn't see its face clearly, but Ilius knew this was the deity worshipped by the church.

The deity had come to save His religion!

Chen Yi, who appeared in the center of the battlefield, had a stunned expression: "Holy crap..."

High in the sky, spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared beside him, and in the next moment, he was teleported next to Ilis. The Healing Staff in his backpack was also summoned.

This was not the end; blood rain then began to fall from the sky.

[System judging...]

Ilis, who was communicating with the Deity, found her Deity trembling.

Accompanied by wails, the surrounding space shattered. When Ilis came to her senses, she found herself still on the battlefield.

Everything that had just happened seemed to imply that the Deity had encountered something ominous.

No, no, no, that was an omnipotent Deity!

[Ding! Quest Complete: World Source obtained]

Quest Progress: 100%

Rewards will be settled upon returning to the Game World.

Chen Yi's expression became even more stunned: "Holy crap?"

This Deity might not know that Chen Yi's Healing Staff was in his backpack, and the space where the backpack was located was in the imprint below his collarbone.

This was the imprint of the Game World!

Ilis forced herself to calm down and shouted: "In the name of ** , I release!"

The Healing Staff floated in mid-air, and without Chen Yi's operation, it automatically activated the Strong Heart effect.

A powerful light spread outwards. The Nuns and Clerics illuminated by the light instantly recovered significantly, and they quickly broke free from the guards.

A new round of battle began!

Among them, Chen Yi, who had retrieved the Healing Staff, had the most grim expression. He truly had no intention of helping Ilis, but others didn't think so.

However, since the Main Quest was completed, he should find an opportunity to leave this world.

Stone Wall!

Quickly rising stone walls blocked the faster Wind Blades and lightning.

Chen Yi ran rapidly across the ground. The place where he had been moments before cracked open, and flames surged upwards.

Most of the attackers targeting Chen Yi were mages from the Mage Association. Many of them had seen Yi at the Mage Association and should have been a mage.

Because of this, traitors were the most detestable.

But they forgot that Chen Yi had never seemed to be one of them.

Chen Yi attracted a lot of fire from the mages.

The nuns unleashed their Desire Suppression again, they were now crazier than Berserkers.

As for Iris, she charged towards the Demon King. In her opinion, once the Demon King was dealt with, it would be much easier to handle the others who were below Tier 2 (Level 20).

"Boom!"

Continuous Fireballs exploded among the mages. Shields made of ice and Earth Walls were shattered one after another.

Although he was preparing to escape, being hit was not his preference.

Flame · Fireball Explosion

This version of Fireball weakened the impact of the explosion, but the temperature reached higher in a short time, making it significantly effective against elemental shields.

(Explosion, a chemical or physical reaction that releases a large amount of energy in a very short period, producing high temperatures and releasing a large amount of gas, causing high pressure in the surrounding medium.)

While running, he constructed the structure in his mind. As Wind Walk took effect, Chen Yi's body became lighter and his Movement Speed increased.

Repelling Fire Ring!

Flames swept outwards, intercepting physical projectile attacks with their Impact Force. Spells with unstable structures exploded upon encountering the flames.

While escaping, Chen Yi kept glancing at the sky. The Fire Dragon should be arriving soon.

He had also cast Eagle Eye Technique on the Fire Dragon, so it wouldn't be difficult for it to spot him below.

Once he recalled the Fire Dragon, Chen Yi would find an opportunity to hide and leave this world.

That was what he thought, but he was still somewhat annoyed.

Sanity told him that his gains were already very substantial, and leaving was the correct choice.

Time slowly passed as Chen Yi continuously fled. The ground he passed through was a mixture of various elements, with explosions happening one after another.

[XX's Ice Shard Technique dealt 15 damage to Player Yi]

[XXX's Thunderclap dealt 14 damage to Player Yi]

A little blood trickled from Chen Yi's ears, corners of his mouth, and nostrils.

Fortunately, his Physique stat was high. Otherwise, facing the simultaneous attacks of so many mages, Chen Yi would have already had to use a Resurrection Coin.

Although the single instance of damage wasn't high, the cumulative damage was quite considerable.

A potion emitting faint light appeared out of thin air in his hand. He hid behind a Stone Wall and gulped it down.

The potion's effect caused Chen Yi's HP to slowly rise back into the safe zone.

"Roar!"

The Fire Dragon arrived from the sky.
