Alger: What, I'm a Hostage? Right, Right, I'm a Hostage

Alger put his finger on the trigger and took two deep breaths.

Although Qilingus's head had been blown, he still felt a little uneasy.

Qilingus has been his old rival for many years, and he didn't quite believe that Qilingus would die so easily.

I always felt that everything went so smoothly.

Everything is going according to his plan, completing the transmission according to the plan, finding Qilingus according to the plan, controlling Qilingus according to the plan, killing Qilingus according to the plan--

It all went so well.

It goes smoothly like a sweet dream.

Click.

Bang!

The surrounding environment was shattered, along with Qilingus's head.

This is just a dream.

He still held the rifle, but he didn't have time to pull the trigger.

The "Creeping Hunger" in Qilingus's hand also gave Grazing a "Nightmare"!

At some point, this pirate general had switched abilities and entered the state of "Nightmare".

What is different from the normal "Nightmare" is that he can still move after dragging people into the Dream Infiltration environment.

At this moment, the figure of Qilingus has quietly appeared behind Alger. His angry eyes locked on his former "friend" and he raised his right hand, which had already been filled with strength and anger.

Furious Strike.

This is probably the strongest blow of Low Sequence Sailor. It can use its own anger as the basis to explode an extremely powerful blow of the same Sequence. The damage is linked to its own anger. In the case of extreme anger, even Sequence 8's Sailor can break Sequence 7 to a certain extent. Protection of Warrior.

And now Qilingus's blow contains rage and various bonuses. Even an ordinary Sequence 5 cannot easily take it. If you are facing Sequence 5 who is not good at frontal combat, this blow can even severely damage the opponent.

Boom!

Qilingus's punch made a huge noise in the air, entangled with the rapidly rotating wind, and hit Alger's back heart.

At this moment, in an instant, before Alger could react, a tail poked out and struck Alger one step ahead of the attack.

The next moment, the attack came down, but Qilingus's sneak attack missed.

His fist hit Alger, but passed through it, as if it didn't touch anything.

The body of Alger suddenly blurred before that, turning into Illusory Door one after another. The main body appeared behind the "door", in two different worlds from the attack, facing each other from a distance.

And Qilingus, of course, cannot hit a person in another world.

Although he was about to explode with anger, it seemed that his "Furious Strike" could not break the void yet.

Very sorry.

Alger's reaction was not slow. After realizing what was happening now, he immediately held the gun handle with his backhand, instinctively swung the rifle in his hand like playing golf, and hit Qilingus on the chin.

And Qilingus was not hesitant. He pressed down hard, and his head that had just been lifted up a little from the beating immediately clamped downwards. He used his chin and his chest to crush the butt of the gun into pieces with a roar, and various parts fell gradually.

Before Alger dropped the rifle and took out the pistol again, Qilingus's hand had already reached forward and grabbed Alger's head.

He wants to take a gamble and bet that Alger cannot become blurred twice in a row.

When he attacked Qilingus, he had exited from the previous virtual state, and now Alger has a physical form.

And just as Qilingus thought, the same blur cannot be used a second time in a short period of time.

But Qilingus still failed to catch Alger this time.

His hand got tangled in mid-air.

Wandering Star Borer, which looked like centipedes and worms, poked out of the air one by one. They entangled with each other and turned into tentacles, entangled in Qilingus's hand.

At the same time, Qilingus's gloves suddenly bulged, as if there were small insects squirming underneath.

Wandering Star Borer "traveled" to the inside of the Qilingus glove.

"Travel" is achieved by relying on "Spirit World".

And because there is a complete Spirituality in the human body, and Spirit World is regarded as a complete whole, it is almost impossible for Traveler to travel directly into the enemy's interior.

But extraordinary items are different. No matter how tightly this glove fits the skin of Qilingus, they are still regarded as two "different" areas in Spirit World.

It just so happens that Wandering Star Borers are generally small enough and can be easily drilled into.

More and more Wandering Star Borer are coming out of Spirit World and appearing in the gap between Qilingus's hand and the glove "Creeping Hunger". It is necessary to take off the glove from Qilingus's hand from the inside.

This is not possible!

Qilingus immediately began to struggle hard.

However, his limbs were now entangled one after another by tentacles composed of Wandering Star Borer that looked like centipedes and worms, making it difficult to move.

Alger once again reached for the gun.

His mind was spinning so fast that he had no time to think about anything else.

Although the Cardinal was looking for him in the opposite direction and was quite far away from his current location, it certainly wouldn't take long to get here.

Although the "rifle" failed to fire just now, the sound of the pistol was heard.

The wind would carry these gunshots to the Cardinal's ears.

And if the cardinal wants to come here, he doesn't even need half a minute.

This time, we must not miss again.

Qilingus naturally noticed Alger's action of pulling out a gun.

His gloves once again bloomed with brilliant light, becoming as if they were made of pure gold.

Qilingus followed the force pulling on his limbs, leaned back and opened his arms, as if he was hugging Sun.

He planned to summon the Holy Light to drive away these worms that were born from Spirit World and were half Spirit World Creature to a certain extent.

Snap.

Morien's hand fell on Qilingus's head.

"This is not okay." Morien's smiling voice sounded in the minds of several people present, "These children don't like the Holy Light."

Qilingus immediately discovered that the glove "Creeping Hunger" did not respond to his command this time.

This extraordinary item was completely separated from him at this moment, and the bugs filled all the space between him and the glove.

Although he can still mobilize Spirituality to control the gloves, in this case, his control will be much worse than when he directly controls the gloves.

At this time, Morien also used "Resonance Curse Technique" against Creeping Hunger.

"Creeping Hunger" has a certain degree of "alive" Beyonder Characteristic.

Resonance Curse Technique has a strong special attack effect on creatures without high intelligence. Beyonder Characteristic, which is "definitely understandable", caused the gloves to immediately confuse Morien's command with Qilingus's command.

At the same time, the hand holding Qilingus's head also exerted force, Resonance Curse Technique started, and Propagation was used to push it.

Synchronized Propagation turned on and quickly filled Qilingus's brain, causing the contents in his brain to begin to split rapidly.

By accelerating the effect of "Synchronized Propagation" through direct contact, in just a few seconds, Qilingus's eyes were already wide open and bloodshot, and his whole body was twitching and unable to control his body.

His brain was completely filled with a sentence that was played over and over and split.

Looking at Morien's side face, Alger, who had just pulled out the pistol, slowly put the gun down again.

This face, and this way of not speaking, are exactly the same as the man I saw at sea.

"Are you the favored one of----Mr. Tower?" He asked with some uncertainty.

Mr. Tower favored one?

Audrey, who had been watching and listening, suddenly widened his eyes.

If you can recognize Mr. Tower, then this is Mr. Hanged Man?

Audrey's face under the mask suddenly became excited.

Great! I'm wearing a mask and Mr. Hanged Man is not.

I actually discovered the identity of a Tarot Club member so easily!

Audrey's eyes passed over the faces of Morien and Alger repeatedly.

Feeling Alger's confusion, Morien held Qilingus's head in one hand, turned around, and showed a smile to Alger.

"No, it's not."

"I am Tower, I am myself," Morien pointed at himself, "As you can see, it is Sequence 7."

It's actually me!

Alger was shocked.

He didn't think his followers would have the guts to pretend to be Grace's own Angel or even a true god.

So it really can only be me.

But----

Alger glanced at Morien who was holding a pirate general in one hand, and blinked when he saw Sequence 6 who was holding a Sequence 5 level Sealed Artifact and subdued him with just one slap.

Sequence 7?

Did you say this is Sequence 7?

I haven't read the book, don't lie to me.

He gave an awkward yet polite smile.

Alger said nothing and his posture was very respectful, but his meaning was very clear.

Do you think I look like a fool?

The surrounding Wandering Star Borers dispersed happily, surrounding Morien.

"Is it really me?!" Audrey was a little unbelievable.

She has always had the illusion that Morien next to her seems to know her very well.

Moreover, the way he speaks is very similar to the real Mr. Tower.

So Audrey felt a little hesitant from the beginning. It felt like it was me, but it didn't feel right.

It wasn't until Bug Pack said Morien was "Sequence 7" that she gave up the idea that Morien was "Mr. Tower".

But now, Morien directly admitted that he is who he is.

What is this? Having fun with the people?

Mr. Tower is so "people-friendly"?

Audrey also believes it.

After all, this kind of thing is easy to confirm. Tomorrow will be Tarot Club, and she will give a pair of "confessions" at the meeting.

However, she didn't believe the so-called Sequence 7 either.

She also showed an impeccable smile and looked at Morien without saying a word.

Well, if you say you are Sequence 7, then you are good.

Mr. Tower must have a reason for saying so.

The two of them thought of a word that Emperor Roselle once proposed:

A smile to the person on the wall.

"Don't believe it, my current body is Sequence 7." Morien explained with a smile.

The two of them immediately understood.

body?

Your current body?

Oh! God has come! I understand, I understand.

The seven righteous gods have not walked on the earth for a long time. Beings like Mr. Tower need a container to appear in this world. It is understandable and understandable.

The two of them quickly got along with each other.

Morien, who could probably guess what they were thinking, smiled. He raised his hand, shook it slightly, and said to Alger, "By the way, shouldn't you point the gun at me?"

Muzzle?

Alger was stunned for a second and reacted immediately.

"I'm sorry." He apologized softly.

He raised the gun again and pointed the drooping muzzle at Morien's head.

Just two seconds after he raised his gun, a huge gust of wind roared past the forest.

Cardinal Church of Storms, Snake, who was wearing a black robe embroidered with storm symbols, was caught by the strong wind and fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed. His feet landed on the ground and hit the ground not far away from the four people. However, he did not fall. Instead, he used his legs to support the weight that fell from the sky.

"Hey, little pigeon." Morien smiled and raised his hand to say hello. The voice appeared directly in Snake's heart, making his expression darker.

There was no expression on the square face of "Spellsinger of God", but his posture showed his dignity.

The gray hair that emerged from under the black soft hat was blowing in the wind, setting off the extremely serious silver eyes.

In his eyes, Morien carrying Qilingus is definitely an extremely difficult opponent.

He can't tell the strength of this person, but Sailor Pathway, also known as Tyrant Pathway, is very good at imposing pressure.

And the fact that Morien is not timid when facing himself as a cardinal can already explain a lot of problems.

There is also the ability to ignore his Spirituality protection and directly let the voice appear in his head, which is also not tolerated by Xiaobiao.

Besides----

His eyes turned slightly and looked around Morien.

All those creatures are extraordinary creatures.

A Beyonder driving thousands of Spirit World Creature----

Having dealt with Church of Evernight for a long time, he thought it would be difficult for the bishop resident at Quiet Church to do so.

So this is a Demigod.

"Let the hostages go first." He said in a low voice.

Who is the hostage? Qilingus?

Alger first thought for a moment, then looked down at the Church of Storms priest robe on his body, and then at the Wandering Star Borer that fell on his shoulders.

Am I a hostage?

Oh, yes, I am a hostage.

"Cardinal Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about me!" He immediately clenched his pistol, tensed his muscles, and looked like he was ready, and pointed the muzzle at Morien's head.

"Your courage is the treasure of the storm, but you don't need to be buried here." Snake spoke in a low voice, keeping his eyes fixed on Morien.

He repeated it again.

"I said, let the hostages go!"

His voice was mixed with rolling thunder, and sparks began to crackle around him.

Church of Storms is a typical chauvinist church. For them, the weak are dependent on the strong, and the strong have the obligation to protect the weak.

Alger is his subordinate, and he is also a "weak" and the object of his protection.

He would never allow the pastor of the church to be bullied under his eyes.

Morien smiled and raised his hand and waved it towards Alger. The Wandering Star Borer on Alger's shoulder immediately fell off and returned to Morien.

"Go back." He said with a smile.

So, Alger took a tentative step in the direction of Snake. Seeing that neither of them had any reaction, he trotted up behind Snake.

Seeing Alger return to the team, Snake relaxed a little.
