Esther’s action scared those present.
For this to happen in a church, it was nothing like what happened in taverns or those places for fighting. A church a territory of God’s so it naturally had the protection of God, including the rocks on the ground. Normal players could not even break a wooden stool there so Esther’s strength on that sword was unimaginable.
Furthermore, it was a severe offence to execute violence in a church. If normal players did a PK in a church, they would be minimally executed on the spot or even become wanted throughout the server. If they fought against an NPC like Esther, no one present could get away.
Esther’s words were very clear. She would definitely not give up her rights given by God so to take the Soul of the Gods away, they had to defeat her.
Esther was a level 100 obsidian ancient BOSS. Without considering the consequences of fighting in the church, any sane person like Wang Yu would not offend the Light Sanctum for someone like Ally.
“Haha, Boss, that two idiots are going to fight the Great Leader!”
Peach Blossom Wolf, who was in charge of watching Wang Yu, saw what happened and excitedly sent the news to Sanwen Cuttlefish.
Wang Yu was fierce but could he be fiercer than the Sanctum of Light? If they really had to fight, Wang Yu had no winning chance and the greatest winner would be Mad Wolf Guild.
“No way…” Sanwen Cuttlefish received the news and was so shocked that he stunned for a few seconds before replying, “He even dares to offend the Sanctum of Light?”
“What if he is an idiot?” Peach Blossom Wolf analysed.
“Let me ask you, will you attack the Great Leader?” Sanwen Cuttlefish asked.
“Rubbish, of course not,” Peach Blossom Wolf replied as though it was a given.
“Then look!” Sanwen Cuttlefish said, “Even an idiot like you won’t, why would he? Think of a way to make him take action in the church. Don’t worry about dying, you will be heavily rewarded.”
“Erm…” after Peach Blossom Wolf received Sanwen Cuttlefish’s order, he looked at Wang Yu once more in a difficult position.
Just as Sanwen Cuttlefish said, Wang Yu was not an idiot so he would not challenge the Sanctum of Light. Seeing how Esther was about to attack him, Wang Yu weighed the pros and cons then immediately emphasised that he was just asking and had no other intention. After informing them, Wang Yu pulled Little Bookworm, ready to leave.
Seeing how the two of them were leaving, Peach Blossom Wolf and the few of them quickly followed behind, lifting their dagger, ready to stab them.
This was the same tactic they used in the library…
Logically speaking, Wang Yu had been taken advantage of once so he would not easily fall for it again but it was difficult for Wang Yu to change his habit of decades. Feeling there was a murderous aura behind him, Wang Yu forgot where he was and without even turning his head, he reached back and pulled Peach Blossom Wolf to the front then smashed Peach Blossom Wolf’s head.
“F*ck! Brother Bull, you’re in trouble!”
Seeing how Wang Yu killed someone, Little Bookworm panicked in an instant and yelled.
The other perverts in the corner saw what happened and dashed out in shock.
Before they could run out, the patrolling team already quickly sealed the church’s entrance. In a blink of an eye, they killed everyone into a cloud of white light.
These perverts died without knowing why and who this person was such that he dared to kill in front of the sacred church’s patrolling team.
“For God and justice!!”
At the same time, familiar voices could be heard.
“???”
Wang Yu heard them and looked up. He saw the Knights from both sides of the Church activated and unitedly walked towards him. The other patrolling team had already killed all the players other than the two of them and sealed all exits.
“[Holy Web]!”
Soon after, a sharp sound could be heard as Esther, who was not far away, waved her giant sword with both hands and a golden light appeared in mid-air.
Although he knew his opponent was strong, Wang Yu was not the type to be passive. At the exact moment, he rolled aside to dodge Esther’s sword’s trail.
Little Bookworm, who was behind Wang Yu, did not have the same abilities so he was tangled by the sword’s trails.
Esther casually waved it and yelled, “Break!”
The golden ray combusted and Little Bookworm disappeared, leaving only Wang Yu in the Church.
The Holy Knight began approaching him from all directions.
Esther pointed her sword at Wang Yu and said strongly, “How dare you kill in a holy place?! This is defying God’s authority. What do you have to say!”
At the same time, Wang Yu received a system notification: As you defied God’s authority, your Light Faction merit points -200.
Wang Yu was such a poor thing. How was this defying God’s authority, it was obviously legitimate defence. Great, he had 200 merit points deducted at once. It was difficult for him to accumulate a summable amount of Light Faction merit points but now, it was going back to zero.
Of course, the sadder thing was not about attributes, it was that Wang Yu was surrounded by a bunch of Holy Knights. This was the scariest.
These iron-clad guys were extremely strong and Wang Yu witnessed this in Vatican City. Just like quest monsters, their levels depended on the player’s and not a single one was easy to deal with. When they were in a group, they were even more unformidable. When they were in a formation, they were invisible. If it was on a usual day, Wang Yu would be in the mood to play along with them but now, they had the backing of the holy patrolling team and a level hundred BOSS. Even if Wang Yu wanted to escape, it would be challenging.
“Spear of the Holy Meteorite!”
Seeing how Wang Yu escaped from her [Holy Web], Esther wrapped her left fist in mid-air and a shining spear appeared in her hands. She waved it and the shining spear pierced towards Wang Yu.
Wang Yu squinted his eyes, wanting to dodge, but suddenly, the shining spear split into five separate spears, each aiming for him limbs and heart.
Wang Yu naturally did not dare to take on this skill by a skillful BOSS like Esther so when the shining spears dashed towards him, Wang Yu calmly rolled and avoided them.
By then, the Holy Knights were already in their formation and their bodies formed a ray of holy light as their holy shields neatly slammed towards Wang Yu who was on the ground.
Seeing how he was about to be smashed flat, Wang Yu laid flat on the ground and used his two hands to press against the ground. His two legs kicked against the ground in a [Thunder God’s Stomp] and his entire body slipped through the gap between the Holy Knights’ legs against the ground.
Luckily, these iron-clad dudes had pretty average agility so, by the time they reacted, Wang Yu had already leaped a few times and have reached the bottom of a corner of the wall.
The Church’s doors were pretty high but the patrolling Knights were only around two metres tall. They might seem like an obstacle to pass the ten-metre tall doors but to Wang Yu, this was not an obstacle at all. After reaching here, it was as good as he had already exited.
However, Esther was not one of those brainless small troops. When Wang Yu escaped the encirclement, she already knew what he was doing so she leapt pass the Holy Knights and threw her hand forward, sending her large sword towards Wang Yu’s upper back.
Wang Yu heard an air-breaking sound behind him and without hesitation, he activated his qing gong. Using both legs to leap, from the low-ground, he rapidly flew up and Esther’s sword narrowly passed Wang Yu’s feet and stabbed the wall.
“Thanks, beauty, for your help!” Wang Yu turned and flirtishly thanked Esther then strongly stepped against the sword blade and used its elasticity to gain strength to step on the wall. Then he easily flew diagonally out of the Chevalier’s Church as though he was walking, towards the outer door.
