Rosweisse Takes Action (1) / The Saint Bathed in Blood (2)

Leading a large group of loyal clergy, Rosweisse burst into Augustus's room, glanced around, and said, "Find it for me."

There must be a secret passage in this room.

Rosweisse's operation finally began.

In her mind's eye, Rosweisse seemed to see the Pope's sacred throne beckoning to her.

In the Grand Canyon.

The heart has shrunk for the third time.

The height has been reduced by nearly one-tenth.

Each contraction of the heart triggers a heartbeat, and a heartbeat can trigger a powerful earthquake.

Qin Chu felt a strange, fuzzy sensation in his heart.

It's as if the heart never truly died; the so-called heartbeat is more like a distress signal from the heart!

Chapter 369 Rosweisse Begins Her Actions (1)

Qin Chu unleashed the Gluttony Authority to its limit, concentrating all his energy and stamina in an attempt to devour this enormous heart.

The Sapling's power has already reached its peak.

It was thanks to the help of the Sapling that they were finally able to slightly move this enormous heart.

This process is very slow.

This is no longer Magic Power or Battle Qi.

That is a higher-level, more mysterious power. This power is not just about simple destruction and annihilation; it's more like changing everything at the level of the rules.

The sun had already set sometime earlier, and the bright moonlight enveloped the world.

Buzz...

The Evil God's Heart beat once more, and an earthquake followed.

Qin Chu felt that this so-called heartbeat was more like a signal sent by Evil God.

Is it a distress signal?

Even more strangely, Qin Chu seemed to be affected by this signal. Whenever his heart beat, Qin Chu could feel his heart trembling uncontrollably.

Even a brief moment of blankness in consciousness.

If it's really a distress signal, what's the point of sending it to me? I'm not going to save you; I might even eat you.

Immediately afterwards, the raging impact surged and rolled in all directions like a tsunami.

Strangely, this violent impact, powerful enough to instantly turn boulders into dust, did not cause the slightest harm to Qin Chu's body.

It was as if the shockwave, in an inverted V shape, had just avoided the location of Qin Chu and the Sapling. Saya, Antia, Heloise, and Ieta naturally noticed this as well, and all stayed behind Qin Chu.

As for the canyons on both sides, they were incredibly unlucky; their original shapes were completely unrecognizable, with collapsed rocks and mud burying the deep canyons.

A layer of gray dust filled the entire sky.

It was clear that completely swallowing this heart would take more than a day or two, but at this moment, Qin Chu's stubbornness had taken hold, and he was determined to go head-to-head with this heart.

Heartbeat.

All the fragments of the Skyvault Continent reacted, as if the Evil God had not completely died, and even attempted to piece together his broken body to stand on the continent once more.

Empire, Imperial City.

The earthquake radiated from the Imperial Palace and spread throughout the Imperial City.

The earth is cracking.

The violent shaking caused buildings on the ground to collapse in large sections, and the entire city seemed to have entered the apocalypse. Countless nobles screamed in panic, fleeing from their rooms without even having clothes on.

Ironically, the Commoners' District, being far from the Imperial Palace, were the least affected.

Just as all the bigwigs were exhausting their efforts to suppress the rioting remains, Rosweisse and Douglas took the opportunity to appear in Augustus's palace.

Although it is unclear why the earthquake suddenly occurred, it is obvious to everyone that Augustus will not be back anytime soon.

Douglas, together with the two archbishops, set up powerful barriers inside and outside the room to isolate all Magic Power fluctuations and senses within.

Augustus often locked himself in his room for long periods of time, leading Rosweisse to conclude that there must be a secret passage inside.

And at the end of the secret passage, there must be the cage where his so-called mother is imprisoned.

Although Rosweisse disliked this so-called mother, and even felt that the mother's existence was a serious obstacle for her.

She had thought to herself more than once how wonderful it would be if she didn't have this so-called mother.

Of course, Rosweisse was very clever. She knew that so many of her subordinates were desperately searching for Saint Felice's whereabouts, and if she, as her daughter, did not react, it would inevitably affect her image in the eyes of her followers.

She had already planned it out; if she could rescue them, she would.

They can just give her any title of "Goddess" and keep her in the Holy Church.

If they really can't be rescued, then so be it. But if Augustus really does bring out Saint Felice as a hostage to threaten him, then he can take the opportunity to stage a scene of sacrificing family for the greater good.

To uphold the faith and glory of the Holy Church, and to prevent an evil figure Augustus from continuing to plague the Holy See, she must not be threatened by Augustus. Even if it means sacrificing her own mother, she must eliminate this scourge.

At worst, you can have a good cry afterward and shed a few tears; you'll definitely receive plenty of praise.

In Rosweisse's plan, this was the perfect solution: not only would she eliminate Augustus, but she would also get rid of her own mother and gain immense fame.

Unfortunately, this sudden earthquake drew Augustus away, potentially ruining Rosweisse's perfect plan.

A large number of clergy were searching Augustus's palace. After all, Augustus was still the Pope, and this status made these clergy somewhat afraid. If Augustus suddenly returned, things could get complicated.

But seeing the goddess Rosweisse and Cardinal Douglas, he immediately felt at ease.

Even if the sky falls, these two will hold it up, so it won't be your turn to suffer.

So a group of clergymen began to search high and low, but calling it a search felt more like ransacking the house.

He casually stuffed some valuable items in the room into his pockets.

Augustus's room wasn't very large, but the entire search took nearly an hour. Suddenly, a priest shouted excitedly, "Your Majesty, here... here is a restriction!"

"Your Majesty the Goddess" is what they call Rosweisse.

Her Highness is no longer able to bear the dignity and majesty of Rosweisse.

There was a very sophisticated magical barrier on the floor beneath the bed, one that a mere priest like him could not break.

The two Knight quickly moved the bed aside, and Douglas stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the restrictions on the ground. He frowned and squatted down to try and break them.

He reached level 88, and after receiving the Goddess's blessing and being able to touch the Oracle Scroll, he gained even more benefits, and his level, which had not been broken through for a long time, finally reached level 89.

As Douglas's fingers traced the ground, a thread-like Magic Power spread and permeated along his fingers and palms, gradually seeping into the floor tiles below.

The Magic Power was colliding within a small area, occasionally producing crackling sounds.

This was not a large-scale release of Magic Power, but it put Douglas under immense pressure. To break the seal, he needed extremely subtle and precise control over Magic Power, and there could be no room for error.

A fine layer of sweat had formed on his forehead, and his face was somewhat pale.

The entire process lasted nearly half an hour. Then, with a snap, Douglas's body jolted, and he let out a long sigh. He stood up, wiped the sweat from his brow, and nodded to Rosweisse behind him. "Your Majesty, it's untied."

Rosweisse frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

This is just a restriction on the entrance, yet it's taken so long.

But she couldn't show her dissatisfaction directly; Rosweisse had to maintain a gentle, concerned smile, "Douglas, you've worked hard..."

Douglas smiled excitedly, "It is my greatest honor to be able to contribute to Her Majesty the Goddess."

Rosweisse was very satisfied with Douglas's answer.

This is the attitude a subordinate should have.

Thinking back to those Ekaterina, Athena, Sylph...

Especially Sylph, that bitch often acts nonchalantly when faced with my orders, completely disregarding me.

From time to time, you could see defiance in those emerald green eyes, and the way they looked even suggested they wanted to stand up and have a fight with you.

If it weren't for the fact that they were once members of the same Hero's Party, and that Sylph had previously held Lord Jello's Soul Fragment in her hands, and that this woman was somewhat useful, Rosweisse would never have allowed this woman to live on.

She will be patient until all of Jello's Soul Fragment are collected.

Having spent so much time with Lord Jello, they had a more acute perception of the fragments of Jello soul compared to others.

I wonder how Athena and Sylph are doing.

Shaking her head, Rosweisse suppressed the distracting thoughts in her mind, and gently raised her hands, spreading them apart to the sides.

A hissing sound was heard, and the stone slab on the ground moved to the side, revealing a dark passage leading deep underground.

A faint, eerie sound seemed to emanate from within.

"Douglas, you stay here and don't let anyone near. Also, keep an eye on Augustus's movements."

Douglas nodded firmly, even though he longed to stay by Her Majesty the Goddess's side and protect Lady Rosweisse's safety.

But this is also a very important task, and there is no room for the slightest slack.

Looking at the dark opening in the ground, Rosweisse was about to take a step when she suddenly stopped. "My loyal warriors, please open the path to the prison where the Goddess Mother is held."

Her voice was seductive.

Since receiving the Divine Oracle for the second time, Rosweisse's mental abilities seem to have greatly improved, making it easier for her to use abilities such as guidance and mental interference.

As soon as the melodious voice faded away, dozens of Knights and priests stepped forward, their faces seemingly gleaming with glory.

It is the greatest honor to be able to contribute to Her Majesty the Great Goddess.

A Knight walked at the front, followed by the others.

Rosweisse walked at the very back with a gentle smile on her face, her figure gradually disappearing into the passageway.

The passage, though narrow, was not dark.

Every few tens of meters along the walls on both sides hangs a magic lamp, the magic stones inside the lampshades clearly being replaced frequently, the light warm and soft.

Ah... Ah... Ah...

Yet, amidst the soft, warm light, there were faint, sharp, hoarse sounds filled with pain.

This added a touch of gloom to the passageway.

Chapter 370 The Saintess Bathed in Blood (2)

The eerie sound sometimes resembled the mournful cry of a woman who had lost her husband and children, filled with sorrow; at other times, it was like that of a mad beast, filled with a violent and insane urge to destroy everything.

The sound wasn't loud.

Yet it echoed continuously within this single passage.

It was an eerie and unsettling atmosphere that even the soft glow of the magic lamp could not dispel.

Even though this group of people were all priests with considerable strength, and even had the goddess Rosweisse behind them, they still felt a bit uneasy on their scalps.

Snap, snap...

The Knight's metal boots clattered on the stone steps of the stairs.

Even though the spiral staircase leading downwards was clearly visible far ahead under the illumination of the magic lamp, with no dangerous or twisted monsters in sight, everyone felt as if a heavy boulder was pressing on their hearts, making each step exceptionally difficult.

An inexplicable and indescribable sense of oppression hung heavily over everyone's hearts.

The Knight leading the charge had beads of sweat covering his forehead. The further he went, the stronger his fear became. He regretted charging ahead just now, trying to show off and impress Her Majesty the Goddess.

Now I want to sneak away to the back, but I really can't afford to lose face.

He muttered to himself as he took a step forward.
