On the other side, Diogakas also got a set of Temple Army equipment from nowhere, put it on, and hid it among the Temple Army.
This guy was wearing the equipment of the Temple Army, and he didn't look out of place at all.
After Klansa finished talking to the deputy captain, she led Lin Yi towards the inner hall of the Holy See.
Although there are not many members of the Holy See left, the inner hall is still heavily guarded and heavily armed.
Without Klansha's guidance, Lin Yi and Diogakas would have encountered great obstacles if they wanted to force their way in.
Keransa stood in front of a strange-shaped elevator, which was shaped like an iron cage and was completely different from ordinary elevators.
This elevator does not rely on electricity, but relies on human power.
"Open the door, I want to meet His Majesty the Holy King."
Two Templar soldiers opened the elevator door for Cransela.
At the base of the cathedral, thousands of slaves worked hard underground, and their existence was to drive the operation of this huge church.
Whenever someone needs to use the elevator, these slaves begin their arduous job of manually moving the elevator up and down.
"Where are we going?" Lin Yi asked with confusion.
"Go and solve some potential problems." Klansa explained, "If there is a conflict with the Holy King later, the Temple Army will definitely become an obstacle to us."
Hearing what Klansa said, Lin Yi didn't say anything more, but stood silently behind her, playing the role of a loser.
After the elevator slowly descended two floors, Keransa pressed the stop button, opened the door and took the first step.
Lin Yi followed closely and walked into a dim corridor.
"Kransa, come here."
A bishop was puzzled after seeing Crantha, but before he could finish asking, Clantha pierced the other man's heart with a sword.
The bishop stared at Krantha with wide eyes and disbelief.
"Let's go. Not many people come to this floor on weekdays."
The hemp rope on Lin Yi's body had been put into his personal space by Lin Yi. He sensed the vicinity and found that this floor was very empty, with only one person wailing in the distance.
Walking along the bright red carpet, Lin Yi and Keransa came to a room surrounded by closed spaces.
There is a huge red ceiling in the center of the room, and beneath the ceiling is a huge bed.
On the bed, a nun was tightly bound by heavy chains, and her arms were raised above her head in an extremely twisted posture.
Those chains seemed extremely large and heavy compared to her thin body.
The nun's skin is covered with densely packed holy seals, and the marks are intertwined and intertwined between her flesh, just like the veins of another life.
The long-term torture caused the nun's body to become severely distorted.
Her face had also become hideous and terrifying due to the long-term pain, and her once clear eyes now only retained endless despair and resentment.
Lin Yi noticed that the original color of the bed in front of him should be white, and some of the original color could still be seen from the sheets at the foot of the bed.
Due to the blood stain, this bed has completely turned red.
"Socorro, here I come."
Hearing Keransa's voice, the monster in front of him, whose body was distorted by pain and miraculous torture, slowly raised his head.
Although her body is no longer what it used to be, her eyes can still glimpse the shadow of the past.
She looked at Klantha with pleading eyes, begging Klantha to kill her.
The moment Socorro looked at Kelanza, several holy seals on her body suddenly shone with light.
The next moment, injuries of various sizes appeared on Socorro's body. Some wounds were so deep that bones could be seen, and some were bleeding profusely.
As the wound appeared, a miraculous power suddenly fell on Socorro's body.
This power repaired her wounds at an astonishing speed. No matter how serious the injury was, it was healed in the blink of an eye.
Although this healing ability is miraculous, it cannot hide the pain Socorro endured.
A large amount of blood poured out of Socorro's body, dyeing the bed bright red again.
In Lin Yi's perception, Socorro's life origin has been contaminated by the power of miracles, and the two sides are closely intertwined and inseparable.
Faced with this situation, even Lin Yi felt helpless.
Looking at the dying Socorro, Lin Yi stood in front of Socorro.
As if sensing something, Socorro raised his head angrily, and the light in his eyes was extremely clear: kill her.
"I hope you won't come to this damn world again in your next life." Lin Yi said softly.
At the same time, his sword had already pierced Socorro's chest.
As the power of the abyss eroded, Socorro felt that the power of miracles in his body was gradually dissipating.
The process of being eroded by the power of the abyss is extremely painful, but Socorro has become numb to pain after enduring countless tortures.
The holy seals on her body disappeared one after another, and the fire of life was about to be extinguished.
At this moment, Socorro actually showed a relieved smile on his face.
"Thank you." She used her last strength to say these two words, and then her body began to float away like a handful of yellow sand.
Socorro's life origin is closely connected with the power of miracles. When the power of miracles disappears, her life also comes to an end.
[Kill Sister of Pain Socorro, obtain 5.2% of the Source of the World, and now obtain a total of 82% of the Source of the World]
[Obtain the golden treasure chest and the kind person. 】
At the moment Socorro passed away, the Temple Army, which was fighting elsewhere on the mainland, noticed that something was wrong, and the holy seals on their bodies failed.
The reason why the Temple Army was able to suppress the rebels largely relied on the extraordinary abilities conferred by these holy seals.
On the battlefield, no matter what kind of damage they suffered, they could quickly recover in a short time, making the Templar Army a nearly invincible army.
But without the Holy Seal, the Temple Army would be nothing more than a group of veteran soldiers.
Although the Temple Army's equipment is relatively advanced, other rebel armies are not without the ability to fight back.
After all, the number of the Temple Army is limited, and the Temple Army who are responsible for performing tasks in the outside world usually perform tasks in small teams.
The cause of the battle is quite simple. The raging plague has plunged the civilians into dire straits.
The Holy See of Pain is supposed to be a place where civilians seek hope and salvation, but it is closed at this moment.
What makes people even more angry is that the price of holy water continues to rise.
This is not an official decision by the Holy See, but a private choice made by some priests in an attempt to make huge profits from this plague.
As the pressure of life continued to increase and dissatisfaction accumulated, the desperate civilians finally launched a riot.
The place where this riot occurred was the city that Lin Yi had visited.
With the help of the Licker Church, some civilians were able to recover and escape from the clutches of death.
After experiencing life and death, they began to reflect deeply: Why should they work desperately for those painful members of the Holy See who usually do nothing and turn a blind eye to the suffering of the people?
Driven by this sentiment, and instigated by some careerists, the city eventually broke out into a massive rebellion.
As a symbol of power, the City Lord's Mansion was the first to be attacked.
After the city lord learned of the outbreak of the plague, he hurriedly fled to the summer resort with his servants and thirteen concubines. Therefore, the defense of the city lord's mansion was extremely weak and it was quickly captured by the rebels.
However, the weapons arsenal in the city lord's palace became the harvest of the rebels.
With these sophisticated weapons, the rebel army's strength rapidly increased. They advanced all the way and soon reached the temple of the Holy See of Pain.
At this moment, the Temple Army in the temple was fighting fiercely with the rebels.
The wounds that appeared on Socorro's body just now were caused by this battle.
Facing the well-equipped rebels with high morale, the Templar Army, although possessing extraordinary abilities, was gradually at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and weapons and equipment.
If it weren't for the Holy Seal, they would have died countless times.
Unfortunately, because Lin Yi cut off Socorro's connection with Miracle, the painkillers and recovery potions that the Temple Army relied on instantly became ineffective.
The holy seal that originally gave them immortality now lost its effectiveness and became worthless.
These holy seals cannot transfer injuries out of thin air, and they can no longer provide them with a steady stream of vitality.
Because he did not notice the change of the Holy Seal, an arrogant Templar soldier launched a desperate charge towards the rebel army. As a result, he was chopped into pieces by the rebels in the next second.
The rebels looked at the fallen Temple soldiers and couldn't believe their eyes.
Just now, these temple troops seemed to have divine help. No matter how they attacked, it seemed difficult to cause fatal damage to them. However, at this moment, the temple soldier suddenly died suddenly after being stabbed through the heart.
"They have lost the protection of the gods. Sure enough, the gods can no longer stand their perverse behavior! Everyone, kill me!" A careerist raised his arms and shouted, his voice echoing over the battlefield.
They have always been angry at the actions of the Holy See and dare not speak out, but now they see the hope of overthrowing the rule of the Holy See.
"Sure enough, God can't stand it anymore?"
"Great, these guys should be dead a long time ago."
Under the instigation of careerists, the surrounding rebels seemed to have been brainwashed, and their inner fears and concerns disappeared without a trace.
They were originally dissatisfied with the Holy See of Pain, but they had never dared to express it before.
After the speech, the leader disappeared from the crowd, quietly came to a dark corner and took off the black veil on his face.
If Lin Yi could stand here, he would find that the leader is actually the vegetable stall owner Lin Yi met.
The vegetable stall owner originally planned to go to the Holy See of Pain and use the gold coins he had saved so hard to exchange for holy water to treat his two seriously ill children at home.
But the priest's sudden price increase caught him off guard.
Looking at the child wailing on the bed, the vegetable stall owner secretly contacted some vendors to incite the patient's family members to each other.
Unexpectedly, the effect was so significant, and everyone didn't even say much. They just said, "Do you want to grab holy water?" The family members of these patients automatically joined their team.
With a common goal, these people can be said to be fearless of death.
Even before they die, their only request is that the people around them can bring holy water to their families.
This was also their only goal for this operation. For the survival and hope of their families, they devoted themselves to this battle without hesitation.
Right now, the Temple Army near the temple was directly involved in a hard fight.
The total size of the Temple Army in this city is thirty people per squadron. After all, this city is an important source of funds for the Holy See, so some extra manpower has been allocated.
But at this moment, the number of rebels has exceeded a thousand. After losing the effect of the holy seal, the thirty soldiers of the Temple Army could only retreat while fighting. They were about to retreat to the temple. The situation was extremely critical.
"Has the call for help been sent out?"
The squadron leader of the Temple Army asked a soldier behind him while resisting the attack in front of him.
"The request for help has been sent out, captain!" a soldier behind him responded, with a hint of anxiety and helplessness in his voice.
Their squadron only had thirty people in total, but they had to face more than a thousand rebels. One can imagine the great pressure they endured.
"There seem to be riots in various cities now, and they can't spare any manpower." A soldier behind him is holding a crystal ball in his hand, which can contact other crystal balls.
But at this moment, there are also shouts of killing in the crystal ball, and it can be seen that the situation in other places is not much better.
"Damn it, what about the Holy See? Let them send out a large army to suppress it, otherwise the situation will be out of control." The squadron leader of the Temple Army said urgently, but before he could finish his words, a spear suddenly pierced his chest. .
This sudden attack made him freeze instantly, and then, several long knives pierced his body at the same time.
Under the crazy attack of the crowd, the squadron leader was quickly chopped into pieces.
At this moment, in the Holy See, the captain of the Temple Army who was in charge of liaison was immersed in pleasure.
He was lying on a large velvet bed with two beauties in his arms, completely unaware of what was happening outside.
The other captains also lived the same luxurious life. They paid no attention to the rebellion outside and believed that the civilians could never be the opponents of the Temple Army.
The crystal ball used for communication had already been thrown into the warehouse and locked so as not to disturb their lives.
At this moment, the crystal ball in the warehouse was glowing red, flashing a signal of crisis.
Few people come to this warehouse on weekdays, so no one notices anything strange here.
The corruption and neglect of the Holy See undoubtedly exacerbated the chaotic situation outside, and the entire continent fell into an unprecedented crisis.
Under the Cathedral of the Mother of All Mothers, Klansha knelt on the ground, clasped her hands, and trembled her lips slightly. She was repenting for Socorro, hoping that she could go to Heavenly Mountain and obtain eternal rest.
In Kransha's story, Lin Yi also learned about Socorro's past.
Socorro was once a saint of the Holy See of Tribulation. She had a pure and kind heart.
However, her kindness, which was ignorant of the world, became the source of her pain under the strict rules of the Holy See.
When she witnessed the Temple Army torturing those heretics and traitors in the Holy See, Socorro could not bear the cruel punishment, so she began to pray for these punished people.
In accordance with the teachings of the Holy See of Suffering, she prayed to the gods to spare these people from suffering, and was even willing to use her own suffering to replace the punishment they suffered.
After praying day and night, a miracle finally came.
Originally, Socorro had a pure wish, hoping to help alleviate the pain of those who were punished through his prayers.
But she never thought that this starting point would trigger her personal nightmare.
After learning about the miracles that had occurred in Socorro, the Holy See of Pain became extremely interested in her abilities.
A bishop proposed that Socorro share the damage for the Templar Army. This not only provided a new "protection mechanism" for the Templar Army, but also happened to be in line with Socorro's deepest desire - to bear the pain of others. .
This proposal was quickly unanimously approved by all the bishops and the Holy King.
As a result, Socorro was tightly bound underground with iron chains, and her body was engraved with densely packed holy seals. These holy seals became the link between her and the Templar Army.
Since then, Socorro has become the Templars' "painkiller" and "restorative potion."
Under her protection, the Temple Army gradually suppressed other forces on the mainland, becoming invincible and invincible.
The only price is that Socorro needs to endure endless torture underground.
Whenever someone joins the Temple Army, the priest whom Klansa saw just now will carve a holy seal on Socorro's body.
The priest Lin Yi met just now was the bishop who originally proposed this opinion.
As a result of this proposal, he was nominated by everyone to be a cardinal.
His task is to guard Socorro to prevent him from accidents due to other reasons.
It was just Kransa's sword that caught him off guard, and he had no chance to send any distress signal.
"Let's go, it's time to head to the Holy King's Corridor."
Keranza finished praying for Socorro and stood up from the ground.
After witnessing all the bad deeds of the church, Kransa became more determined to overthrow the Holy See.
The two of them were currently located underground in the Cathedral of the Mother of All Mothers. As long as they reached the second floor and walked through the corridor, they could meet the Holy King.
Keranza pressed the elevator button again, and as the elevator slowly rose, she held the cross sword tightly in her hand, ready for battle.
Of course, Lin Yi took this opportunity to summon a few more soldiers from the Black Shadow Corps.
Once other situations arise, these soldiers of the Shadow Corps can delay the two of them from behind.
"The ultimate halo."
"The Chain of Life."
"Holy Blessing."
After Lin Yi added buffs to Klansha, Klansha felt as if she had been reborn.
If she puts her former self in front of her, the current Klansa is confident that she can defeat her former self within three seconds.
The two went up to the top floor of the elevator, stepped out of the elevator and stepped onto a long corridor.
The corridors are lined with paintings depicting the past glories of the painful Holy See, each one telling the story of the Holy See's glory and splendor.
Among these paintings, Lin Yi noticed the statues of the Mother of All Mothers and the Twisted Father carved on the stone pillars.
From the hands of these two stone statues, blood continued to drip, gathering in the pool below.
The strong smell of blood hit his nose, and Lin Yi immediately recognized that all the blood was human blood.
Walking along the corridor, Lin Yi found that there was no one in the corridor. After all, this was the Corridor of the Holy King, and ordinary members of the Holy See were not qualified to approach it.
Only Klansha's special status can directly meet the Holy King, otherwise Lin Yi will have to penetrate the entire Holy See to get here.
Just as the two of them continued walking along the stairs, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in Lin Yi's ears: "blasphemer, I wish you success."
He turned his head sharply and was surprised to find that the nun he had met before killing Tepetad appeared in his sight.
In just a moment, the nun disappeared from his sight again.
"Did you hear that?" Lin Yi asked Klansha subconsciously.
"What?" Kelanza turned her head in confusion, apparently not aware of the voice just now.
Lin Yi looked at Keransa and hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to remain silent and did not tell her about the nun.
