Digaro put the books back in the underground library, and then led everyone back to the main church.

"Your church is in trouble." However, when they came to the side entrance of the church, Leo suddenly stopped and said.

Digaro was stunned for a moment and looked at Leo in confusion. He didn't seem to take Leo's words seriously and continued to push the door open and walked into the church.

Leo and Sylvia looked at each other and walked in without saying anything.

However, Qiao An did not continue to walk in, but stood at the door, looking at the rock temple in front of him as if he were looking at some monster, and then quickly stepped back. He also drew out the knight's sword and reached out to press it.

On the holy emblem of the Lord of Illusion on the knight's armor on the chest, he quickly recited a special sacred word in his mouth, and his body instantly entered a state between reality and reality.

At the same time that Qiao An's body was changing, a breeze swept over the place where he was just now. Wherever the breeze swept, the masonry appeared corrosive mottled as if it had gone through a long period of time, and the plants

It also withered quickly, and the land dried up and turned into desert.

Qiao An, who was not affected, quickly climbed to a nearby building, then stood on a high place and looked around. He quickly locked the target and immediately jumped from above to attack, and then headed towards the outside of the church and the street.

He ran past a building on the opposite side.

While running, he looked towards the Rock Cathedral behind him from time to time, but when he looked around, his eyes always showed a look of fear, because at this moment, the Rock Cathedral was no longer a religious building in his eyes.

Instead of a building, it was a monster, a fleshy monster with sharp teeth and a big mouth. The side door that Leo, Sylvia and Digaro walked in before was also a big mouth of the monster.

He was not running away in fear at this moment, he was rushing to the source of the monster, because he found that there were several pipe-like things on the monster extending from the air, all the way to a building across the street from the Rock Temple.

.

Soon Qiao An ran to the building, but he hesitated a little at this moment, because the building had also turned into a monster, but the size and ferocity of this monster could not be compared to the monster turned into by the Rock Temple.

Than, but it is still very dangerous for him.

After taking a deep breath and suppressing the worries in his heart, Qiao An buried his head and slammed into the monster's big mouth, which was the entrance door of the building. The powerful collision also instantly knocked the door open.

He also rushed into the building, but in his eyes, the scene inside the building was an esophagus full of sharp teeth and attacks.

Just when Qiao An found the source of the abnormal situation and prepared to use his own abilities to solve the source of the trouble, Digaro, who was the first to enter the Rock Temple, also fell into trouble.

The moment he entered the Rock Temple, he immediately realized what the trouble Leo was talking about was. The moment he walked into the side door, the surrounding scene instantly changed and turned into a place that made him feel familiar.

Scenes from the Mount Baker Front.

Just like other senior clergy of the Rock Temple in Nice City, he was also transferred here from the Old World. Before being transferred, he was the frontline small theater commander of the church on the Mount Baker Front.

For churches in the Old World, coming to the New World to serve is equivalent to retirement and vacation, because in the New World, although the relationship between the major churches is not very good, it is not particularly bad, at least the conflicts between the churches

It rarely escalates into a war, and most of them are resolved through negotiation and other methods. Therefore, the security of the church's clergy in the New World is far greater than that in the Old World.

However, in the Old Continent, almost all churches have deep hatred for each other. Once conflicts arise, it is difficult to resolve them through negotiation. A so-called holy war is often launched. Therefore, the church knights in the Old Continent are basically

Some of the soldiers who have been on the battlefield were even promoted directly from the battlefield.

Mount Baker is located in the northern central plateau of the Old World. It is the junction of six plateau countries and is also a holy place recognized by more than a dozen religions, including the Rock Church. Therefore, the Mount Baker area is the most complex area in the entire Old World.

More than a dozen religions from six countries have occupied a piece of territory in this area, and they all claim ownership of the Mount Baker area. No one will give in, and the result naturally turns into a war.

More than a hundred years have passed since the first war in the Mount Baker area. Large wars involving more than ten forces have occurred more than a dozen times, while other smaller wars occur almost every year or every month.

.

The church knights of the Rock Church will go to the Mount Baker area to participate in at least one war. Some of them will directly transfer from church knights to war knights and stay on the battlefield their entire lives.

For the vast majority of the church knights of the Rock Church, the experience of Mount Baker is an honor, a meritorious service, and something to be proud of for a lifetime. But for Digaro, the experience of Mount Baker is what he feels throughout his life.

The most disgusting and shameful thing was precisely because of this reason. When the church asked him if he was willing to be transferred to the New World, he immediately agreed, because for him at that time, there was no other way to go.

The most important thing is to stay far away from that ghost place on Mount Baker.

However, Jean Digaro never thought that he would return to the front of Mount Baker in this way, return to that war, or more accurately, return to the aftermath of the war, because the surrounding ground was covered with

There were corpses, some of which were comrades, and some of which were enemies. The situation was exactly the same as before. The only difference was that he was not injured.

Although he knew very well that everything in front of him was just an illusion, he still couldn't suppress the rejection and disgust in his heart, and deep down in his heart, he had an uncontrollable urge to turn around and escape far away from here.

Perhaps due to the influence of this strong emotion, Digaro suddenly became clearer. He immediately remembered that his reaction to Leo and the others just now was too abnormal. Not only did he not hold them responsible for trespassing into the temple,

Instead, he listened to the other party's suggestion and ran to take out the divine war record secretly stored in the temple and showed it to the other party. This made him instantly realize that he might have done it unknowingly, otherwise he would not have done it.

Such a decision that goes against common sense.

"Is he here for the capstone?" A question immediately appeared in Digaro's mind, but he quickly denied himself in his heart: "No, he is not, otherwise, he would have already taken action. He should

I came here to collect books."

Although Digaro is unclear about the purpose of Leo and Sylvia coming to the Rock Temple, now is not a good time for him to think about these things. There are greater dangers and more important things waiting for him. He

We need to find a way to escape from the illusion created by this unknown person and deal with these attackers.

Just when he thought about breaking away from the hallucination, his thoughts seemed to trigger something. The originally noisy battlefield hallucination instantly became dead silent, and then he saw piles of comrades and allies on the ground.

The enemy's corpses got up from the ground, standing stiff and twisted, and all the corpses stared at him.

Most of these corpses are adults, but a large number of them are children aged 11 or 12. These children are wearing ill-fitting military uniforms and holding weapons taller than themselves.

The corpse of an adult looks very out of place.

After standing up, they saw the corpses of these children slowly walking towards Digaro with stiff steps. The corpses in front of them also automatically moved out of the way.

When these seemingly innocuous children's bodies approached, Digaro's face showed emotions such as nervousness, guilt, and sadness. These emotions even affected his will to fight, making him have to fight.

Only with extra strength can you grasp the war hammer and shield in your hand.

The corpses of these children soon walked in front of Digaro, with pairs of gray-white eyes waiting for Digaro. Then almost all the corpses of the children said one word in the common language of Northland at the same time, and this word was mother.

When he heard these corpses say the word "mother", Digaro couldn't help but take a few steps back, and his retreat also made the Holy Emblem of the Rock Church on his chest dim a bit.

At this moment, the scene of that year appeared in Digaro's mind. Because of the war that lasted for a hundred years, the population of each country has been greatly reduced, and the majority of the casualties were adults. This also caused the war participating countries and the church to

The recruitment age for soldiers has gradually been lowered, and now children as young as eleven or twelve are being drafted into the military.

In a war that Digaro participated in that year, three countries and two churches participated, and these five forces, including the Rock Church, all sent such child soldiers to the battlefield.

After the war, the Rock Church, as the victorious party, executed some prisoners, most of whom were still ignorant child soldiers, and the person responsible for the execution was Digaro.

At that time, Digaro watched the child soldiers being executed in front of him one by one, and those child soldiers did not shout words like "Long live the kingdom, the true God is watching us" before they died, like other adults did.

Before he died, he cried loudly and called his mother. Just like other children living in peaceful areas, when they are most helpless, the first thing they think of is their mother.

This incident gave Digaro a great shock and blow. It almost made him doubt the teachings of the Lord of Stone, and almost caused him to lose his ability as a church knight.

Even though many years have passed, the hallucination in front of him has once again awakened that memory. The uncomfortable feeling has not weakened at all, but has intensified a lot, and is like a battering ram hitting a city gate, trying to destroy his

The line of defense of will.

Under the impact of waves of strong guilt, Digaro seemed to fall into a complex emotion of guilt, anger, resentment and even hatred. As if defending himself, he shouted loudly: "Shut up! This is not me.

It’s my fault, I didn’t take action or give the order, it’s not my fault!”

As he spoke, he saw him raising the shield and war hammer without hesitation. Like a suicide, he rushed directly into the corpses of children in front of him, frantically moving towards all the corpses in sight.

After smashing it, the whole person fell into a state of selfless violence.

"Sure enough, that guy is right. Digaro really has a spiritual weakness. Now we are waiting for him to become violent and weak, so that we can completely deal with him." At this time, a man stood under the top stone.

The man in black robes looked at the image of Digaro in the illusion in the crystal ball in his hand, and said to himself with a little contentment: "Who would have thought that we were not aiming at the capstone from the beginning?

Are you here for your rock wall?"

Perhaps sensing that Digaro was doomed, the man in black robes began to adjust the crystal ball to see what was happening to other people who had broken into the realm of illusion.

However, what surprised him was that when he adjusted the crystal ball to the side of the male intruder, he found that it was pitch black inside and he could not see anything.

At first, he thought he had made a mistake, so he made a few adjustments, but soon he confirmed that he had not made a mistake. The darkness in the crystal ball was the thing that most aroused the male intruder's emotions.

The illusion created.

This made him feel a little tricky, because this dark scene made it impossible for him to do anything, because he couldn't figure out whether it was the darkness itself that easily made the man emotional, or whether there was something in the darkness that made the man feel strong.

of mood swings.

In the end, he had to give up dealing with the man like he dealt with Digaro, and instead controlled the crystal ball to see the image transferred to the woman's strongest emotional hallucination.

However, as soon as he moved over, he saw that the entire crystal ball turned into an eyeball with a vertical pupil, and this eyeball seemed to penetrate the magic he cast and stare at him.

However, at this moment, this senior cleric of the mysterious church of unknown origin could do nothing, because when the crystal ball turned into an eyeball and stared at him, he immediately felt a feeling as if he was facing a god.

The illusion, the body also lost control instantly, and the whole person's spirit fell into an inexplicable madness and chaos.

At the same time, his body also mutated at an extremely fast speed. The robe was crushed by the expanded muscles and fat. Soon a deformed meat ball quickly formed in place, and a large number of tentacles grew from the surface of the body.

Coming out, there is also a mouth full of sharp teeth on the top of the tentacles.

These tentacles do not seem to be controlled by the owners of their bodies, because the moment these tentacles are finalized, the tentacles stretch out, trying to find the food needed to supplement the rapid changes in the body, but the results seem to be unsatisfactory.

In the end, these tentacles aimed at the source of their devouring object, the body that was deformed into a flesh ball, biting open the flesh ball body like earthworms, burrowed into the body, and quickly devoured all flesh and blood.
