Monster Lord: The Goblin Offers the Saintess to Me at the Start

Chapter 96: The Transformation Ceremony



Behind the members of the Knight Order, there were also some priests in rich long robes, their faces filled with solemn and holy expressions. The Silver-Rank priest was also in the line.

These people were heading toward Sivis's factory...

The priests were in worse condition than the Knight Order members. They hadn't been in a battle, but they looked extremely defeated and fearful, as if they had gone through a terrible ordeal.

They had indeed encountered trouble.

Originally, they could have stayed safely inside the city, holding the outer temple's formation, and waiting for reinforcements from other districts of the Church.

When the formation was working normally, it could hold off Gold-Rank enemies. After confirming that the Blood Clan in Minnet City was only Silver-Rank, they had reduced the formation's energy output, and it could have lasted for months!

The priests were perfectly safe!

Only the Knight Order members had to go out, because their duty included patrolling the city.

That's why, under Sylar's persuasion, they had previously gone to ask for Vikalina's help.

But...

After being rejected, they hadn't lost hope, because they could just hide in the church.

Everything changed in the explosion of Divine energy.

The power of the God of the Blood Sea not only desecrated Vikalina's Flame of Salvation, but also desecrated the formation outside the church.

This desecration ability was developed specifically to counter the terrifying achievements of the Holy Flame Spear from thousands of years ago, but it wasn't just for this one ability.

In fact, it was aimed at many of the Church's holy light formations, martial techniques, and magic.

When the God of the Blood Sea's aura erupted.

The priests and knights who had been safely inside the church, as solid as a mountain, were forced to their knees, falling into extreme panic.

After they regained consciousness, they found the formation was broken, and a flood of Blood Servants came rushing in.

You see, Minnet City had over ten thousand people. Except for the Sivis factory area, most of the people had already been infected during this time.

Even with one Silver-Rank priest, the church group found themselves in a life-or-death crisis!

The priest used holy light magic, killing hundreds, even thousands of enemies, but he still had to join forces with the Knight Order members to fight their way out.

As for the direction of their escape, they had no choice.

The church was far from the city gates, and escaping would mean facing many enemies. But heading toward Sivis's factory base was actually safer.

Vikalina often patrolled this route. Earlier, the Knight Order had approached her and cleared out the Blood Servants in this area.

They had no choice but to go in this direction, hoping to meet up with the female knight.

With two Silver-Rank warriors working together, their chances of survival would be much higher.

At this moment, Sylar, who had been infected by the Blood Clan, spoke up in the group: "Last time, our attitude was too harsh. This time, we have to be polite. "

"We can't let Vikalina have any more bad feelings about us. "

"Her combat power should be stronger than the priest, after all, she's a dedicated fighter, the 'Holy Flame Spear'. "

"We have to rely on her strength. "

He spoke as if he understood the situation clearly.

"Yes, yes, listen to Mr. Sylar, he's right. "

The Silver-Rank priest was also urging the priests around him.

He knew that, normally, these colleagues of his received offerings from the people and had high opinions of themselves, being quite proud. Vikalina cared a lot about ordinary people.

There was a good chance these priests would anger the female knight.

"Everyone must be careful this time, don't provoke Vikalina," the priest quickly explained: "First of all, don't get into a conflict with Sivis."

"According to what Mr. Sylar said, Vikalina and Sivis might already have a bad relationship, which has insulted our knightly spirit. But at this moment, we need to focus on getting through this crisis first, and not worry about a little bit of personal virtue."

"Also, Vikalina is a very devout knight. So in front of her, everyone must not be too casual, especially not break the rules about offending or harming the people."

"We understand, we know."

The priests quickly nodded.

They were in a life-or-death situation, so they naturally tried their best to remember the priest's instructions.

The knight who had been turned into a Blood Servant had a flicker of calculation in his eyes.

The Blood Clan had given up on reclaiming the Blood Shackles.

But this servant had not given up!

Thousands of years ago, the servants created by the Blood Clan caused great casualties to the Church, precisely because of this strange loyalty after being transformed.

Sylar had not received any orders from his master, and didn't know that the Blood Clan was now barely alive, relying on the Bleeding Blood Technique.

He just felt that, by taking the chance to meet up with the female knight, he could check what was really going on at Sivis's side.

If possible…

"I'll help my master kill that little nobleman!"

Sylar said with a determined expression.

...

Sivis opened his eyes in the room. To his surprise, an ordinary person would probably need one or two days to stabilize the newly broken Silver-Rank power.

He did it in just a few dozen minutes.

Sivis felt the energy inside his body was flowing extremely smoothly and effortlessly. Above his mental sea, streams of energy were flowing, creating a scene of deep harmony and tranquility.

"This is the change after ascending to divine power..."

He sighed, and indeed, it was no ordinary thing!

Sivis did some calculations. Normally, after a breakthrough in cultivation, a person would need to re-stabilize their realm and adapt. But after he used divine power to cross the boundary between Extraordinary and the counter-argument, the time needed to stabilize his realm was extremely short!

Just this one point alone would save Sivis a lot of time in cultivation, effectively increasing his talent by half a level!

This half level was an extra half level even after his talent was pushed to the limit of the mortal world!

"It feels like the benefits of being the Evil God are starting to show up now..."

Sivis joked, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately opened the system panel to check if any new subjects had been in trouble.

Luckily, during this time, with Vikalina patrolling outside, there had been no new notifications of subject deaths.

He then tried to sense the red thread of blood in his mental field — that was the effect of Blood Hunt.

But, it seemed that the Blood Clan figure was still under the effects of the Bleeding Blood Technique.

Sivis couldn't find his location at all.

"Hmph."

"Troublesome."

He had a slight headache.

Sivis had just broken through and just escaped from a life-or-death situation. When he rescued those civilians, he hadn't thought much about it. But after stabilizing his realm, he couldn't help but analyze the situation —

In the whole Minnet City, aside from the area where Sivis was stationed, which was protected by Vikalina, the rest of the city had already turned into a human inferno.

Blood Servants had plenty of food to eat. They only had the intelligence and instincts of beasts, and their instinct for self-preservation would tell them that Sivis's base was a dangerous place, so they wouldn't come near it easily.

The previous order from the Blood Clan before it was heavily wounded was to mobilize a large number of Blood Servants into the sewers to chase and block Sivis.

Now, either his order was still in effect, and the Blood Servants were still rushing into the sewers, but from the scene they saw when Sivis and Vikalina broke out of the sewers, that was clearly not the case.

Or, the Blood Servants hadn't received any orders and were just following their instincts to search for food.

In this situation, if Blood Servants were still coming to the factory, it meant that they had already finished eating in other areas and had no choice but to take a risk!

Sivis's face looked a bit grim.

He knew that the entire Minnet City was now like a bomb about to explode, ready to detonate at any moment.

When it did, it could drag all of his subjects into disaster.

Sivis had just confidently promised the subjects that he would protect them, but that was only under the condition that he obtained an Extraordinary Soul and unlocked the "Summon Guardian" ability, so he could instantly gain a group of Silver-Rank monsters as combat power.

Nearly a hundred combat units, all of them Silver-Rank beings with Extraordinary abilities, were enough to carve a path through Minnet City.

Even though there were a lot of Blood Servants, Sivis's monsters would never be able to kill them all, even if they died from exhaustion. But it was enough to ensure the safety of the subjects and also give a big boost in soul points.

If it weren't for these monsters, Sivis and Vikalina, just two Silver-Rank warriors, wouldn't have made much of a difference.

Sivis had perfectly ascended, and with the system-issued recovery potions he could get himself out of there, but he definitely couldn't save many subjects. At most, he could only carry a few children with him.

But how could that be acceptable?

After stabilizing his level, he was extremely anxious, constantly using his refined divine power to sense that Blood Clan figure, but no matter how he scanned, he found nothing!

Sivis was completely frustrated!

"This system can't be relied on either. I have to go back to the teleportation point in my territory, or upgrade my territory from a monster settlement to a monster kingdom, so I can unlock the temporary territory heart and remotely teleport to search for monsters."

"What should I do now? Maybe I should go check the adventurer's guild, see if there are any large groups of monsters outside the city that I can subdue?"

"But the Blood Servant's final attack could happen at any moment. If I go out to collect monsters, by the time I get back, the subjects might already be dead."

"And even if I could find some monsters, I might not be able to find enough usable ones."

Sivis was very frustrated.

At that moment, he suddenly heard a moan coming from nearby.

He turned his head and his face changed slightly — it was the young maid Reina.

During her unconsciousness, her body temperature had risen a bit more, and she kept muttering, "Master, Sivis Master… don't leave me, don't leave me alone…"

Seeing the girl in such pain, Sivis immediately set aside all his other thoughts and rushed over to take her hand. "It's okay, Reina, I'm here, I'm here." He kept repeating.

Sivis didn't care anymore about the Blood Clan figure that had still not appeared. He could only place the various materials he had gathered earlier for the guardian transformation beside Reina.

"Let's finish the transformation ceremony for Reina first."

Reality and the game were different. In the game, as long as there was enough spiritual power of holy light injected, the blood plague would be as good as nothing.

But in reality, Reina's body hadn't changed much, but her mental state continued to deteriorate.

Sivis couldn't wait any longer!
