Chapter 552 - 567: Conflict from the Holy Light Church
CHAPTER 552: CHAPTER 567: CONFLICT FROM THE HOLY LIGHT CHURCH
Odin saw Baiyu showing that inquisitive expression again, and a sense of satisfaction rose in his heart.
It felt like when he used to teach newcomers.
However.
Those Bounty Hunters, their status is nothing compared to the president of the Mutual Aid Association, right?
Even though, within the Hunter Association, Odin is a well-known figure who can chat and laugh with the president.
However.
The presidents of other departments don’t pay him much attention.
Having such experiences, being able to brag to his old friends, is also a kind of capital.
Glory Queen.
The strongest among the Imperial Legendary Ships, it’s a national treasure.
Odin carefully explained this to Baiyu, and then the two fell silent again.
After a while.
Bored and idle.
Seeing Baiyu sitting on the city wall like a motionless log, closing his eyes for rest, he said, "Did the captain just call you Count? Did I hear wrong or what?"
"You heard wrong," Baiyu replied casually.
"I don’t believe it. Tier Five Martial Artist has sharp senses; they can even hear the sound of a mosquito’s wings. How could I hear wrong?"
Odin scrutinized Baiyu’s handsome face with growing satisfaction, "Not bad, I have a sister back home, are you interested?"
After speaking.
He leaned closer with a streetwise expression, "Really a Count? The hereditary kind?"
Baiyu rolled his eyes.
The old guys at the Hunter Association are all good.
Except for their chatterbox habit, which needs to change.
He originally wanted to cultivate the Moon Spirit Divine Heaven Seal, taking the chance to break through several levels continuously.
But this guy.
Simply makes people restless.
Looking at that big face, Baiyu shook his head helplessly, "My Count title is from another family, it took quite an operation to come to me.
Having said that, you should understand, right?
Such things.
Those who understand, understand, those who don’t, explanations don’t help."
Odin actually nodded seriously after hearing such a convoluted explanation, "I understand."
Baiyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction, "Good that you understand."
Odin was speechless.
Then started introducing his sister again, determined not to stop until he promotes her.
Baiyu could imagine.
His sister is probably seven or eight points similar to him, definitely old enough to be unmarried, or simply impossible to get married.
Wanting Baiyu to jump into a pit of fire, it’s simply impossible.
The two chatted idly.
Originally thought they’d pass the night this way.
But their comfortable night didn’t last long before a group of people walked down the street.
"Going out of the city?"
"The city has been blocked, do you know?"
"Now, no one can leave the city."
From a distance.
You can hear the City Guard Army’s voice stopping idle people.
The two looked over.
The group trying to leave the city only had ten members.
Each wore a thick black robe, and a black cloth covering their faces.
Dressed so "mysteriously."
It’s as if criminals are telling the police, there’s a problem with me, come catch me.
The City Guard Army brother naturally wouldn’t let them pass.
The group was stopped at the city gate, constantly arguing, but Odin and Baiyu stood by observing the situation.
Afterward.
The argument grew fiercer.
The group almost began to act, Odin frowned and walked over to the City Guard Army.
"The city-blocking order was personally issued by the Anomaly Bureau. Anyone who dares rush through will be put in the Anomaly Bureau prison."
Odin swept his sharp gaze across.
The group’s arrogant momentum quickly decreased, suppressed by Odin’s aura from traversing through a sea of blood.
Subsequently.
After his calm "persuasion."
Not only did the group fail to leave the city, but they were also detained by the City Guard Army and Bounty Hunters for a thorough questioning on the side.
This was just a minor incident.
Soon after, another group came.
As expected, they were also stopped by Odin at the city gate.
Then taken by the City Guard Army for questioning.
The whole night.
People continuously arrived at the city gate trying to leave.
Baiyu and Odin basically didn’t have a moment of leisure.
At dawn.
Another group arrived at the city gate.
Odin still, as before, led people to stop them.
But, just after saying two sentences, a cold sword pierced out suddenly from the group.
Odin’s eyes sharpened, his upper body, as strong as a bull, twisted at a strange angle to dodge the attack.
Then he grabbed with one hand.
The sharp long sword was directly broken by bare hands.
The battle broke out immediately.
In a moment’s time, the surrounding Bounty Hunters had rushed up, encircling the group.
"Take them down!"
"Anyone who resists, execute them on the spot."
Odin roared angrily, his eyes crimson.
His back muscles rapidly expanded, ripping his clothes apart with a tear.
Then he charged into the crowd like a human berserk bear.
Ordinary swords couldn’t even leave a white mark on him, seemingly cast from reinforced concrete.
Rushing into the crowd.
His sturdy arms crushed two people’s skulls, blood sprayed like a fountain covering him.
Tier Five Martial Artist.
Can already be considered an ultimate human-shaped weapon.
The battle seemed almost one-sided.
Baiyu was about to go back and slack off, but just two steps turned around.
In the crowd.
A man jumped up like lightning, a Light Talisman exploded in his hand.
The glaring white light shot out like an arrow.
Odin took the brunt, hit directly in the chest, his iron-like gray-black skin fell off in pieces, flesh kept flipping out at the wound.
He retreated sullenly, crimson blood spitting from his mouth, incredulously looking ahead.
After the man unleashed the attack, his black robe fell off.
His whole body shone with Sunlight, with an intensely scorching feel, hard to look directly at.
"Holy Light Church!"
Odin called out deeply.
From the moment he received the mission, he had a premonition something might go wrong.
Yet truly facing it, still felt hard to accept.
The other side is from the Holy Light Church!
Though over the years, the Church gradually faltered, still not to be compared with the Hunter Association.
Furthermore.
For the Church to forcefully breach the city-blocking order.
What exactly happened at the Grand Cathedral?
Could the empire truly have gone so far against the Holy Light Church?
Even if they’re found to be making Forbidden Divine Weapons, such fierce and aggressive measures aren’t needed.
Odin was shocked and angry.
That glaring light from the man made him difficult to attack.
This light is not ordinary light; it’s extremely hard to defend against, even with strong eyesight.
Fighting the Holy Light Church, this is the most annoying part.
Odin once had the fortune to battle a renegade church member, the opponent fought while emitting light, making it impossible to open one’s eyes.
Simply disregarding Martial Virtue.
At this moment.
Odin was retreating step by step, planning to avoid the edge, to flee when the time was right.
A more blinding and dazzling light burst forth.
This light was even more intense and blinding.
And it actually came from his own side.
Before Odin reacted, the enemies were already letting out screams, the glaring light enveloped them, too bright to open eyes.
