Chapter 3365 Trouble
The next afternoon.
Holy Spirit Temple, sixteenth floor.
The twelve oracles responsible for guarding the teleportation magic circle were replaced by a new batch.
The oracle responsible for guarding the area performed his duties as usual, maintaining the smooth operation of the magic circle leading to the spiritual world.
"what?"
After the shift handover was completed, a young oracle suddenly let out a soft exclamation and looked toward the center of the magic circle.
"what happened?"
"My companion asked."
"Archbishop Kevin...hasn't he come out yet?"
"Archbishop Kevin?"
Upon hearing this, everyone else turned their gaze to the aged figure in the center of the magic circle.
Archbishop Kevin often meditates for more than ten hours at a time.
But now...
"I remember the archbishop went in yesterday morning, didn't he?"
“That’s right. The mental world we entered during the last shift change was more than 24 hours ago.”
"Isn't this taking a little too long... a bit unusual?"
The young oracle was somewhat worried.
Although Archbishop Kevin possesses great mental strength, it is extremely rare for him to remain in the highest level of mental world for more than a day and a night.
"It should be fine; the archbishop's physical condition is stable."
An older, high-ranking oracle observed Kevin's physical condition, then turned around, only to see his companions' expressions suddenly change.
"Something's wrong! Look!"
Archbishop Kevin's face was visibly losing color, and his skin and muscles were rapidly shriveling.
"No! Something happened!"
"Quickly! Notify the bishop immediately!"
Leo, the leader of the Oracle squad, strode forward and entered the center of the teleportation magic circle to check on Archbishop Kevin's condition.
not good!
Leo reached out and touched Bishop Kevin's neck, his heart skipping a beat.
The bishop's vitality is rapidly fading!
"Report to the Archbishop immediately! Colin, you stay here and keep watch! Everyone else, follow me and teleport into the spiritual world to rescue Archbishop Kevin!"
"Yes!"
For an ordinary person, dying in the trials of the spiritual world is simply death.
But Kevin is different.
He was once an archbishop of the church, a position of great prestige.
Leo dared not be careless and immediately led the Oracle Guardian Squad into the spiritual world, leaving only one person to inform the bishop and the other to stay in the real world to take care of everyone's physical bodies.
……
Huh?
Upon entering the spiritual world, Leo's team of oracles looked around and exchanged bewildered glances.
What about people?
Archbishop Kevin could not be seen within the magic circle area.
its not right.
Archbishop Kevin suffered a severe mental injury, so he never leaves the area of the alchemical magic circle during his daily cultivation.
So where did he go?
Leo frowned, sensing that something was amiss.
Just as they were hesitating whether to have the team disperse and leave the magic circle's protected area to continue searching, they suddenly felt a strong sense of danger coming from their side and rear!
"who!"
Leo reacted extremely quickly, turning around instantly and simultaneously creating a golden mental defense barrier.
"call out!!"
A figure shrouded in purple light rushed toward him from afar!
Um! ?
A spiritual construct?!
Leo's pupils contracted.
The mental construct was surrounded by a violent surge of lightning elemental energy, and its body was also shrouded in a layer of materialized purple lightning attribute armor.
The armor's appearance is extremely similar to the Holy Armor!
strange!
This is completely different from any other mental construct Leo knows!
Before he could think any further, the Thunder Martial Soul slashed forward with the giant axe materialized from his right hand's spiritual energy!
"boom!!!"
Thunder roared suddenly.
A thick bolt of lightning leaped down from the sky and slammed into the sacred defensive barrier that Leo had formed around his body!
"boom!!!"
Leo's expression changed drastically.
With a deafening roar, the entire divine barrier surrounding him trembled violently under the bombardment of lightning, flickering and on the verge of shattering!
Dense purple currents still lingered outside the sacred barrier, continuing to cause damage.
"The enemy is suspicious! You all retreat!"
Leo was greatly alarmed.
With just one strike, he consumed a third of his mental energy!
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw the Thunder Martial Soul rapidly approaching him, its battle axe flashing with lightning swinging towards him.
Leo's pupils contracted sharply, and he pushed his mental power to its limit, slashing forward with a longsword formed from holy fire!
"boom!"
A tremendous force surged forth!
What a terrifying power!
Compared to other mental constructs of the same level, the lightning elemental mental construct before us is more than twice as powerful!
Leo's mental energy-condensed form dimmed considerably in an instant. He gritted his teeth and used the recoil to retreat into the magic circle.
Sudden!
A dark light flashed across the magic circle.
Leo immediately used his spiritual power to return to the Temple of the Holy Spirit along with the surrounding oracles.
……
Leo's figure emerged disheveled from the magic circle, his mental strength severely damaged, his face deathly pale.
"Captain Leo!"
Everyone immediately rushed forward to help him up.
The oracle who remained outside the magic circle had never seen Captain Leo in such a disheveled state and instinctively asked, "Captain, what happened? What happened to you?"
“A kind of spiritual construct never seen before…” Leo gasped for breath, looking up and asking, “Has the church been notified?”
"Already notified."
Just then, hurried footsteps came from outside the passage.
Temple Bishop Hadinres pushed open the door and entered, followed by a team of high-ranking oracles.
Everyone saluted.
"Greetings, Bishop."
Seeing Ollie's miserable state, Hardingres frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
"Reporting to the Bishop, we entered the spiritual world to investigate and encountered an attack by an unknown spiritual construct. To avoid casualties in the team, I have chosen to retreat temporarily."
A serious expression appeared on Harding Reese's face.
How could Leo's Oracle squad have escaped in such a sorry state with just one mental construct?
"The attacks of the mental construct are accompanied by enhanced lightning element attributes, its mental strength is extremely high, and... and strangely enough, the shape of the armor formed on its exterior is very similar to our holy armor."
"Constructed armor?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Having guarded the spiritual world for so many years, I've never heard of a spiritual construct capable of automatically transforming into armor.
Is someone pulling the strings behind the scenes?
Hadinres's heart sank again, and he pressed, "Where is Archbishop Kevin? Have they found him?"
"No, we were attacked as soon as we went in, and we didn't have time to search."
"Bishop Hattinres!"
An oracle who accompanied the group into the hall examined Archbishop Kevin's physical body within the magic circle, shook his head slightly, and whispered, "Archbishop Kevin's spiritual body has perished."
Everyone's hearts sank, and their expressions turned somewhat grim.
died.
The situation is worse than we thought.
Archbishop Kevin died, and his spiritual world encountered an unknown enemy.
"Report this to Archbishop Austin immediately! Seal off all entrances and exits and restrict all personnel from entering or leaving until the Archbishop arrives."
"Yes!" (End of this chapter)
