CHAPTER 45: THE BLACK VATICAN ON THE MOVE!

ORIGINAL Author: Chaos

SPINOFF Author: Vester

A kilometre to the south of the Safety Shelters, a Battle Maga wearing a bloodstained white uniform and dripping with water ran across a road.

Behind her were two monsters that looked like pitch black monkeys with abnormal bodies, in the process of ferociously pursuing her. They looked as though they were going to shred the attractive young woman into pieces.

“Wind Disc: Tornado!”

The atmospheric pressure suddenly declined, the broken debris in the surroundings began to suddenly move and spin!

The rotation became more and more intense, and soon enough, a colossal cyclone was visibly forming into a wind cyclone as it charged and began to grow skywards.

The cars that were parked on the sides were slowly leaving the ground, the street lamps were also being pulled out from their stands. The incredibly ugly monkey-faced beasts that were chasing the Maga emitted miserable shrieks before they were mercilessly drawn into the air. The fiercely rotating stream of air made them float like grass.

_Boom~~ Boom~~ Booom~~_

The cars were crashing into each other, metal fragments were everywhere. The two monsters were quickly turned into indistinct flesh fragments in the air, and what sprinkled down was a rain of scarlet red fluids. A miserable death.

After seeing this scene, Lin Yuxin’s face grew a withered smile. Her gaze carried a bit of celebration as she attentively looked at the other Mage who had came just in time.

“Mr. Yang, thank you!” Lin Yuxin said excitedly.

“If I’m not seeing this wrong, then those must be the Cursed Beast Monsters which the Black Vatican loves ordering about,” Yang Zuohe said with a solemn expression.

“That is correct, the disaster this time was caused by them,” Lin Yuxin said with certainty.

“I also guessed that. Unfortunately, we don’t have any bit of preventive measures to let this Bo City… Sigh.” Yang Zuohe’s expression was filled with grief. This Crimson Alert was really unforeseen, there was no way of knowing how many people had already died.

“I suffered from an attack when I was protecting the Underground Holy Spring, their objective seems to be the Underground Holy Spring,” Lin Yuxin told him.

“We already know that, they specifically wanted me to find you just so I could ensure the safety of the Underground Holy Spring. As for the Underground Holy Spring, you didn’t give it to them, did you?” Yang Zuohe asked.

Lin Yuxin shook her head, “They had me surrounded. However, after they realized the Underground Holy Spring wasn’t on my body, they flew into a rage and wanted to kill me. I used a group of scattered One-eyed Magic Wolves to escape from them.”

“You’re very clever! If that’s case, where is the Underground Holy Spring now?” Yang Zuohe continued asking.

“I gave it to the student who was cultivating inside the Underground Holy Spring. I believe placing it with him was much safer than carrying it myself,” Lin Yuxin explained.

“Cultivating inside the Underground Holy Spring… Are you talking about Mo Fan?” Yang Zuohe asked with an astonished look.

“Mhm.”

“Where is he right now?”

“I don’t know, I had him escape to the Safety Shelters by himself,” Lin Yuxin answered.

When Yang Zuohe had heard that Lin Yuxin had not let the Underground Holy Spring fall into the hands of the Black Vatican, he looked as if he was relieved from a burden.

However, after learning the Underground Holy Spring was in the hands of a student whose location was unknown, his entire being felt completely gloomy.

“Mr. Yang, why do the Black Vatican want their hands on the Underground Holy Spring? What is their objective of calling over Monsters to attack Bo City?” Lin Yuxin asked.

“The reason why they have destroyed Bo City is something we don’t know yet. However, them wanting the Underground Holy Spring is to completely eradicate Bo City,” Yang Zuohe said with his voice carrying a hint of anger.

“Why?”

“The Underground Holy Spring is a several thousand year-old heavenly treasure. The Monsters are immensely attracted to it. Through the abuse of the pups of the Darkwing Wolf and the Violent Rain, they gave rise to this calamity.

However, from the start until now, the Darkwing Wolf still hasn’t extinguished Bo City yet. Their plan is to release the Underground Holy Spring’s gigantic pond to entice other Commander level Monsters to attack Bo City.

The Monsters have an innate instinctual thirst toward these kind of treasures that could allow them to greatly expand their strength. Once the Underground Holy Spring’s pond is released, the Commander level Monsters within kilometres will be drawn here by the smell.

Bo City’s defence line is already approaching a crisis, and those Commander level Monsters who possess a certain intelligence will definitely profit from our misfortune. When that time comes, Bo City will become Hell on Earth,” Yang Zuohe said.

As Lin Yuxin heard this, she trembled in fear.

The Black Vatican was too cruel!. Not only did they entice the Darkwing Wolf and its clan, but they wanted to attract even more Commander Monsters. This would turn Bo City into a city of corpses!

“We must find that student called Mo Fan before Black Vatican does,” Yang Zuohe said, gravely serious.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know that the Underground Holy Spring would influence such a big…”

“You made a sensible choice. The Underground Holy Spring being in the hands of that student would at least indicate that it hasn’t fallen into the hands of the Black Vatican.” Yang Zuohe could only pray quietly in his heart that they didn’t find Mo Fan first.

“Let’s not be too optimistic for now. I’m afraid the people from Black Vatican have guessed that I have given the Underground Holy Spring to Mo Fan, I reckon they have already dispatched people to search for traces of him in the city,” Lin Yuxin said with a calm and steady voice.

“There’s no time to lose, let’s go find Mo Fan.”

“If he was eaten by a Monster, then isn’t it better that a Monster has acquired the Underground Holy Spring, rather than the Black Vatican?” Lin Yuxin suddenly asked.

Yang Zuohe was stunned.

“That would indeed be true…”

...

A group of people wearing Black, Grey and Blue Robes were following a person wearing bright green robe. 

"Black Sparrow, have you acquired the Holy Spring?" The Person wearing bright green robe asked. 

"N-not yet Lord Great Bishop... We just found out that Lin Yuxin was not carrying the vial of Holy Spring! She had passed it to the Student who she was with." The Blue Deacon named Black Sparrow quickly informed everything.

"Lord Great Bishop, please give me a chance to retrieve it! I swear to bring back the Underground Holy Spring!" A man wearing Black Robe suddenly spoke! 

He was obviously of the lowest rank, but he still dared to speak in front of all the Blue Deacons! 

The Great Bishop glanced at the man in the black robe and said, "This is your last chance. If you fail to bring it now, forget about half of your face, I will put your whole body inside burning lava and then turn you into a Cursed Beast Monster." His voice sounded extremely cold! 

A chill ran down the spine of the person in the black robe. 

"I... I will not fail you, sir!" He knelt down on one knee and said. 

"You don't have the luxury of that anymore!"
