Chapter 381 Arena of Sin (two-in-one)
The largest church in the Red Apple Mission District collapsed.
Several high walls, exquisite reliefs, and spiers at the top were shattered, and countless stones flew and exploded. The continuous bombing of the "Spade" card was like poking a hornet's nest. Dozens of red-robed priests ran out of the smoke, led by the bishop of the area and the three standard priests.
"Intruder!"
"Damn it! Isn't the Generosity Council still over there in Phosphorus City? Why did it suddenly come here?!"
"Only one person?!"
A group of extraordinary beings from the Red Apple Church gathered at Chen Lun's feet, looking up and glaring.
The bishop was a bald middle-aged man. He stared at the gentleman in black clothes in the sky, his face changed drastically, and he growled at the people around him:
"Ask for help immediately! It's the Archon of the Generous Council! Jack!"
"?!"
The priests and priests nearby were immediately horrified.
The name Jack Spate had been spread within the church from a long time ago, but at that time he was just an "ordinary enemy" or "a heretic who was obliterated on sight". But now, it has become an existence that scares the vast majority of middle- and low-level believers!
"Die them all!"
Chen Lun's eyes were cold.
The silver cane in his hand turned a few times, then swished and pointed downwards.
Swish swish...
Countless poker cards swirled around him, and then poured downwards like a torrent!
The sound of popping was endless.
The lower-level priests had bulging muscles and taller bodies, but their flesh and blood alone could not withstand the sharp storm of cards, and each one of them screamed as if they were being tortured by Ling Chi.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
As flesh and blood flew everywhere, bat wings sprouted from the bishop's back, and the bones of his left arm emerged from under the skin, turning into a white bone shield to block the front, like a rock in the torrent, dividing the storm of cards from it.
Ding-ding-ding-ding!
The dense cards rotated at high speed, hitting the shield hard with a cutting force that exceeded the blade.
Bone powder bursts out and sparks abound.
The bishop had a gloomy face and bent down to resist, but he couldn't help being hit back by the continuous force. Among the congregation hiding behind him, a priest took out a golden goblet, poured a bottle of fresh virgin blood into it, and immediately called for help from the church in a frightened and urgent voice.
When Chen Lun saw this scene, he sneered.
He did not stop him and allowed the other party to ask for help.
Because the purpose of this trip is to kill without any cover-up in order to bring out Rafa's true identity. Ordinary Red Apple Church extraordinary beings pose no threat to him, and even if they send incarnations of saints, they will only be given in vain.
Only those in high positions can stop his rampage!
The Red Apple Church knows this, and this area is under the responsibility of Rafa, so the most likely thing is that he will come to suppress Chen Lun.
This plan is simple and crude, but it is the most time-saving and labor-saving method with the highest success rate in Chen Lun's deduction...
Seeing that the time was right, Chen Lun continued to throw out several "diamond" cards, mixed in with the card storm. Just hearing two loud bangs, the bald bishop's expression suddenly changed again.
The bone shield on his left arm broke immediately, and immediately after, his forearm was chopped off by the red streamer!
Poof!
Blood spurted out.
The bald bishop was frightened and angry. He just prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the church could quickly come to his aid and suppress the arrogant guy in front of him on the spot.
He roared, flapped his bat wings and rushed towards the black hat figure in mid-air.
But what greeted him was a giant sword burning with purple-red flames!
Chen Lun instantly entered the "Pale Knight" form, holding a silver sword in both hands, and struck the bishop on his head!
Clang!
Click! !
As soon as the bishop's left arm grew back, the bone-white claws on his right hand fell off.
His pupils shrank sharply, resisting the pain of both body and soul, and was about to enter the sequence form, but the pale knight in front of him was frighteningly fast, and the terrifying giant sword seemed to be nothing in his hand. Pick it up and let out a terrifying scream.
"Get away!"
The bald bishop screamed inwardly.
But his body was still a beat slower after all.
Clang!
In mid-air, the red-robed bishop's body was split into two, with ferocious expressions on both sides of his face. He rolled his eyes and looked at the pale knight standing in thin air, feeling inexplicably depressed.
The pressure the other party brought to him was too strong!
Bang!
In desperation, he had no choice but to activate both sides of his body to turn into a swarm of bats and flee.
But Chen Lun had long been accustomed to this move, and with a snap of his fingers, a "little ace" flew out. At the same time, the white python on his shoulder stood up, opened his mouth forward and spit out death fire.
"Disu..."
Buzz!
The black ball suddenly appeared in mid-air, sucking in everything around it.
The bats were forcibly dragged in without any surprise, and were stirred in the black ball along with the raging flames. Not a moment later, the bishop died on the spot!
A huge pale figure fell from the sky, and the silver giant sword swept across ruthlessly!
Without the strongest combat power in the area, the remaining priests and priests were all reduced to pigs to be slaughtered under the sword of the Pale Knight. The killing only lasted for two minutes, leaving corpses everywhere.
Chen Lun stood alone and glanced around.
He originally planned to count the loot, but found that these clergymen of the Red Apple Church did not leave any legacy after their death.
‘The spirituality has disappeared… It should be a sin-blood ritual. ’
Chen Lun quickly figured this out and teleported inside the church.
Under the guidance of divination, I quickly found the ritual circle and the blood-covered statue of Lady Rose in the secret door of the prayer room. At the feet of the idol, he received a half-cup of sinful blood.
‘The people of the Red Apple Church are as ruthless to others as they are to their own people... Are they promoting the idea that everyone in the world is sinful, hehe...’
Chen Lun sneered secretly.
All this is just the desire of the Rose Royal Family, and even an unprovoked war to satisfy the interests of high-ranking people... In essence, it is to make up the number of deaths, regardless of the enemy or friend, only to satisfy the ritual .
Judging from the information obtained, one of the purposes is to resurrect the former Pope Dolomipurnis... and the other purposes, analyzed by confirming the memories of previous lives, are mostly to please Mrs. Rose or some flesh-and-blood angel. Causing miracles to come.
Maybe the outcome of the war doesn't matter.
What matters is whether the empire can be dragged into this quagmire and the Beelzebub Kingdom reap the benefits.

When several red rose squads arrived for support, they saw only a mess, with mutilated limbs and corpses all over the ground.
"Lord Rafa, we have found no trace of the enemy."
Several red-robed priests returned to the ruins-like open space and reported to a red-haired man.
"Bishop Seleman, Father Shur and Father Tobot, plus twenty-one monks, were all killed without exception... In addition, the sinful blood of the branch church has been taken away by the enemy."
"I know."
Rafa said calmly.
A faint smile appeared on His face.
"Jack, is this your revenge? It seems that Byers told you everything before he died... But it's okay, since it was delivered to your door, I can also restore Byers's legacy. Take it back.”
Rafa originally planned to ambush Byers, and even used the church's [A-level trick - Sin Arena] to trap the opponent to death. However, he did not expect that Byers was so courageous that he "suicide" after knowing clearly that the situation could not be changed. , allowing spirituality to escape the arena.
This ultimately led to Rafa's plan to seize the moon's high properties to fall through.
Now Jack actually abandoned the battlefield in Yanbang and went deep here alone, obviously coming for Byers' death. In Rafa's opinion, Jack has been blinded by hatred.
But this is an excellent opportunity for Him...
It can not only settle the old and new grudges together, but also bring back the characteristics of the high position of the moon.
The feeling of being lost and found made Him extremely happy.
At this time, a golden goblet was shaking violently in the hands of one of his subordinates. He listened intently and his expression changed drastically.
"Lord Rafa! The church branch in Jianbo City has been attacked again... The enemy is still Jack, he is the only one!"
"You guys clean up the mess here, I'll go over there myself."
Rafa said calmly.
"Yes!"
The men lowered their heads and said.
At the same time, they secretly thought in their hearts that this damn Jack had provoked the church again and again... and now that he had offended Master Rafa, his true body would personally take action and kill this man on the spot!

However, when Rafa arrived in Jianbo City, Chen Lun had already left, leaving only ruins and corpses.
After entering the "Pale Knight" form, Chen Lun took action with all his strength. The high-level combat power of the Red Apple Church was not worth mentioning in front of him. Each battle lasts no longer than ten minutes. They descend, kill people, and seize the blood of sinners, and then directly use the clouds to leap to the next city without any hesitation.
In just a few hours, Chen Lun destroyed Red Apple Church branches in five cities. Rafa, who followed closely behind him, became more and more murderous.
Chen Lun's intuitive feeling was that the warning from his spiritual intuition was getting stronger and stronger.
It seemed like a disaster was approaching.
But he didn't care about it. Instead, he confirmed Rafa's arrival through this and secretly breathed a sigh of relief... The plan went smoothly as deduced.
After another fierce killing.
Chen Lun sat on the ruins of the collapsed church, gasping for air.
There was a mess all around, broken limbs and blood could be seen everywhere, and there were still flames burning in many places. The silver sword had returned to its cane form and was resting casually at his feet.
He has exited the "Pale Knight" form at this moment and can no longer continue.
In order to rush for time, Chen Lun successively overloaded his transformations. Although he conquered several cities with an invincible attitude, it also made him extremely tired physically and mentally. After consuming a lot of physical strength and sanity, he felt severe pain in his head, accompanied by dizziness and tinnitus, which made him nauseous.
‘This is just the smallest price in the plan...’
Chen Lun coughed up a pool of blood, his face cold.
He suddenly noticed something and turned his head slowly.
The faceless waiter suddenly walked out of the air, bowed respectfully to him, and handed a letter from the tray without any delay.
"Lord Consul Jack, this is a secret message from Lord Mulenga... He ordered me to tell you that you have entered the 'Gem State No. 4' war zone, which is the area responsible for Lord Houston... This may cause Lord Houston’s dissatisfaction”
"I know."
Chen Lun took the letter.
After attaching the tip, I opened the envelope and read it.
Mulenga did not question why Chen Lun went to the war zone where he was and carried out a series of "in-depth destruction", but instead expressed his gratitude for this...
‘Is this the tolerance of one’s own people? ’
Chen Lun smiled.
However, Mulenga Executive said that if Chen Lun continues to go deeper, it is likely that Houston will misunderstand, which is an act of stealing credit.
‘I only told Speaker Azgierro about my plan, and the other consuls of the Senate did not know about it... I don’t care about Houston’s attitude. ’
His eyes were profound.
After putting the letter away, Chen Lun suddenly felt that his spiritual intuition had reached a peak, so he immediately turned to the messenger and said:
"I have received the message, please leave immediately."
"Yes, Lord Jack."
The faceless waiter was slightly startled, but without asking any further questions, he bowed and immediately escaped into the spirit world.
Shortly after it left.
The surrounding scene suddenly changed.
Chen Lun discovered that dozens of simple and old stone pillars suddenly rose up on the edge of a circular area with a radius of one hundred meters with himself as the center.
Each stone pillar requires a dozen people to hold it together and is hundreds of meters high. The surface was pitted and covered with traces of blood, as if it had gone through countless years.
The stone pillars were connected by huge iron chains engraved with strange patterns, which seemed to seal off the area.
Blood began to ooze on the ground, bubbling as if boiling.
When the blood gathered into a large pool of blood, a figure slowly emerged from it.
A voluptuous man with red hair reaching his waist, wearing a gorgeous robe and bathing in blood.
"Jack, you ran so fast...even I chased you for a long time."
Rafa stepped forward step by step with bloody footprints, an indifferent smile on his face.
"Rafa."
Chen Lun took a deep breath, slowly stood up from the ruins of the church, and looked down at the man below with a solemn expression.
This was the first time that he faced the saint directly, and it was impossible to say that he wasn't nervous.
But Chen Lun was not panicked.
The moment Rafa arrived, he began to pray to the Speaker.
According to his previous plan with the Speaker, as long as he leads out Rafa's true identity, the Speaker will personally take action to kill this person.
Chen Lun compiled the intelligence about version 1.0 of his previous life in his mind and selected the most critical information, prompting the birth of this plan... Although the Red Apple Church is in turmoil throughout the empire, it has the twenty-two most important "Fortress of Abomination", they are the key nodes that constitute the final ritual "Scarlet Ritual".
In addition, there are three "Fortresses of Hate", which are the foundation supporting the entire ceremony.
These twenty-five fortresses in total are mixed among hundreds of fortresses in the red disaster area. They are not known to outsiders and are guarded by the "Scarlet Monastery" Ten Cores, the most powerful high-level group in the Red Apple Church... Rafa is responsible for the three A version of BOSS, one of the base fortresses.
In the previous life, the ultimate ritual "Scarlet Ceremony" was completed, and the existence at the end of the flesh and blood pathway performed a miracle, which caused huge losses to the empire and allowed the Red Disaster to continue to rage for a long time.
'I have informed the Speaker of the intelligence and location of the twenty-five ritual fortresses. He can use this information to exchange benefits with the official asylum and the rest of the Orthodox Church... And as long as Rafa is killed, one of the base fortresses will It is in a state of defeat. This is an excellent opportunity to completely break through the Red Apple Church! ’
Chen Lun's thoughts flashed quickly.
‘The Speaker will not miss this opportunity! ’
At this time, Rafa looked with interest at the gentleman in the black hat high up in front.
"It seems like you're not panicking at all. Jack...do you have any trump cards?"
He shook his head.
"You and I are now on the 'Arena of Sin'. No one can come in and no one can go out...until one party dies. Do you still have hope now?"
Rafa had a smile on his face and seemed not to mind saying a few more words at this moment.
Chen Lun frowned and glanced around calmly.
‘Is this the trick that trapped Mr. Byers to death? Mr. Speaker...can you take action smoothly? ’
Ashamed, I won’t say anything anymore
