Chapter 321: Chaos
Although Celica was alone, she brought a strong sense of pressure, and no one dared to move carelessly.
After all, being targeted by a Red Bishop is not a good thing.
Celica has always been known for her fighting skills; characters like Minaret Merlin are rare. Among humans, Celica’s combat ability is considered the peak of eighth tier. Moreover, when fighting in cities with a Church of Dawn Goddess, Celica gets a boost, which discourages anyone from trying to defeat her.
Merlin frowned slightly in the corner, wondering why Celica had come here. The plan had been going well, but now there were many more variables…
Merlin had a strange feeling; it seemed that every time she made a plan, it could never be perfect. Whether it was meeting Null and 『』, recruiting Alita, helping Sophia here, or even today’s events, it all felt like wasted effort…
"Now, everyone, cover your heads and form a line to go out," Celica said loudly. "If anyone dares to harm the witness, the church’s stake will not be a joke!"
In the distance.
The ponytail girl saw that it was about time, took out a walkie-talkie, and whispered, "Action."
"Sir, the Cardinal is here; we are targeting the Corleone family, not looking for trouble!"
"It is because the Cardinal is here that we can cause them the greatest loss." Danwei spoke into the walkie-talkie, "In the chaos, the Cardinal will definitely think they are causing trouble, and that will help us. This time, I am the commander. Move out!"
Taking the dark elf to the church was not part of Danwei’s plan; she did not want to know what secrets the church and the Corleone family had. She just wanted to save someone!
If a person reaches the church, it will be much harder to save them than it is now.
Besides, with her here, we will definitely succeed.
"Yes…"
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud explosion came from deep within the manor.
"What is that…?" Jeff was stunned. "Is it from the direction of the armory?"
……
Weapon storage.
A man with a scarred face charged in with a group of people wearing leather armor. When they came out, they carried submachine guns and light machine guns, and each person had several grenades hanging from them.
Many men in black from the Corleone family were rushing towards this way, holding firearms in their hands.
"Brothers, let’s show these Corleone punks a thing or two!" the scarred man shouted, decisively firing his light machine gun.
Rat-tat-tat…
Flames shot from the gun as it fired down the hallway.
A group of people happened to burst out from there and were caught off guard, as if the scarred man had predicted their appearance.
"Hey, just like she said…" the scarred man sneered, waving his hand. "According to the plan, let’s steal their treasure vault!"
"Yes!" The mercenaries behind him shouted excitedly.
Not just here, many other important places also heard explosions, and the whole Corleone estate on the floating island was on fire.
This estate is more than just an auction site; it has many valuable items and people inside.
Because the power was turned off, the people in black from the Corleone family could only use the bell to signal.
In an instant, all the people in black sprang into action.
……
Boom!
Another loud bang echoed, and many parts of the roof were blown open, with stones falling down from above.
Whoosh!
Celica waved her hand, and a golden Holy Shield covered everyone’s heads. Stones hit the Holy Shield, making crisp sounds, but no one was harmed.
Listening to the chaotic sounds of footsteps, gunfire, and cries, Celica let out a cold laugh.
Earlier, Celica saw Jeff wave at her, and she thought he was up to something.
Jeff was completely confused.
Damn it, who the hell is targeting us? Why are there armed people here!
"Bishop Celica, is this what you mean?" Jeff suppressed his anger and confronted Celica, "Attacking our estate without a trial? Even the Church of Dawn Goddess shouldn’t be so unreasonable!"
By the way, Jeff was wondering why Celica, a great Red Bishop, came in alone. She must have been waiting for this moment!
The defense of this estate is as strong as a fortress. Can just anyone break in? But if it’s the Church of Dawn Goddess, then it all makes sense.
"Me?" Celica laughed, "Keep acting."
"Not your person?" Jeff’s gaze was cold.
"No," Celica replied confidently, showing no hesitation at all.
"Everyone, carry out Plan F, clear all the rioters!" Jeff shouted.
The movement of the people in black suddenly changed.
The ponytailed person’s expression changed; wasn’t the emergency plan only up to D? What is F?
Damn, this better not go wrong!
Celica stood there calmly, waving her hand, and a golden shield protected the dark elf.
She silently watched Jeff, as if to say, "Go on, perform. In front of absolute power, let’s see what you can do."
……
The scar-faced man quickly encountered resistance.
At first, he knew all the battle formations and strategies of the black-clad men, and any small problems were just due to the enemy’s strong personal skills, without affecting the overall situation.
But this sudden change left him confused.
He had thrown a grenade, and when the black-clad men appeared, it would have exploded and taken many of them out.
However, the speed of those black-clad men seemed to have slowed down. After the grenade exploded, a group of shield-bearing black-clad men moved forward, with others pushing a machine gun into the corridor immediately.
Rat-a-tat-tat…
Bullets poured out furiously, easily piercing the bodies of several mercenaries.
Many of the bullets were enhanced with magic, and the leather armor offered no protection at all.
The bullets here did not just graze like in the movies; when they hit a person, they tore off a large chunk of flesh, and many who didn’t react in time were cut in half.
"What is happening?"
"Help!"
"Damn it, don’t run back!"
How could a person be faster than a bullet? Some who didn’t manage to turn the corner in time were shot to pieces.
"Hurry into the room!"
The scar-faced man quickly entered a room, and many others rushed in after him.
Slice!
The scar-faced man stood frozen in place.
He saw a web of red light tear him and the people behind him to pieces!
His last thought was, isn’t this room supposed to have a magic circle?
Just two people stuck at the door survived, looking at this room with cold sweat.
This is not the room on the map; the room on the map is an office, while this room is an empty space with a bloody magic circle in the middle!
The entire mansion’s space has changed!
Although people’s magic power was suppressed, the magic circle was not restricted.
One can only say, as expected of the Corleone family, their response was too fast, and their plan was too complete.
Not just here, every battlefield is changing.
……
Minaret stood outside the mansion, as if taking a leisurely stroll.
Her foot touched the ground, as silent as could be.
She drifted through the night sky, and no matter how fast the men in black ran, they could not find her, even though she was simply walking, very openly walking.
"It’s time to have some fun." Minaret’s foot gently kicked a stone.
In an instant, the whole floating island began to shake.
Minaret blended back into the darkness and rushed towards the manor’s location.
She was a thief, and she would not set up a wizard’s special magic circle.
But the long years had given her endless knowledge; she knew the weaknesses of any magic circle and could destroy any magic circle, which is why the church feared her!
There were not many places she wanted to go that could stop her.
Why she was stuck in Canglang Province was also a mystery to the players.
……
Celica felt her magical power was coming back, and the limit of her recovery seemed to be at the peak of sixth-tier.
The magic array that was suppressing this floating island was damaged, but it was not completely destroyed!
What does it mean to recover to this extent?
Celica looked at Jeff with confusion; what was he trying to do?
"Huh? My magical power has returned…"
"Not much has returned."
"What happened?"
"It can’t be that we have to escape by ourselves, right?"
Whoosh!
At that moment, a simple throwing knife shot in from outside.
Snap!
The golden Holy Shield summoned by Celica, which protected everyone, shattered with a loud noise!
Celica’s face changed, and her weapon appeared in her hand.
Ding!
The long sword collided with the throwing knife, and a strong wave of dark energy spread towards Celica.
The Night Elves worship the Goddess of the Night. During the Age of Gods, the Church of the Goddess of the Night grew immensely powerful and even faced attacks from several gods.
In the darkness, the power of the Goddess of the Night is very strong, and Minaret is her Dependent!
Now this small island is in the air, which has secretly strengthened Minaret’s power. It is also night, and Celica’s dawn power is not able to summon much.
Of course, the most important reason is that Celica must protect others, while Minaret has no worries.
In this clash, the two are evenly matched!
Buzz…
Celica gathered the holy power in her body into her sword and slashed a flying knife away.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of knives shot in from the outside, some real and some fake.
Celica was greatly surprised, her figure swaying back and forth, as she slashed the flying knives away, as if her shadow filled the entire auction site.
Fortunately, under Celica’s protection, there were no casualties.
Boom, boom, boom…
Soon, a group of lava giants covered in flames fell down from the upper level.
Celica had no time to deal with them!
"Everyone, hurry and evacuate! Trouble is coming!" Celica shouted loudly.
She could finally be sure it wasn’t Jeff causing the trouble.
Damn, how did Minaret know that there was a dark elf auction here?
With her temper, it was impossible for her to ignore something like this; after all, those were the kind of people who dared to openly steal from the Church of Dawn Goddess.
"Run, run!" Many nobles, upon hearing this, immediately stood up and ran toward the door.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Shadows descended from the rooftop, each holding crossbows or bows, countless arrows shot into the darkness.
Unfortunately, the level of these professionals is not very high, so the damage they cause is limited.
But the nobles are afraid of death; they don’t care about their opponent’s level.
"Damn it! Get out of the way!" A heavy woman pushed a middle-aged man away.
"What are you doing!" The middle-aged man immediately got very angry, and with a wave of his hand, his guards rushed at the heavy woman.
Bang!
The weapons of the two guards clashed together.
"Run, don’t block the way!"
Another person rushed forward and knocked the middle-aged man over.
Boom!
The person running ahead did not have a good outcome; he accidentally bumped into a lava giant. The giant slightly lowered its head and with one slap, sent him flying away.
"You’re asking for trouble!"
The warrior behind him leaped forward and struck the lava giant on the head with a shield.
The shield hit right in the face!
Bang!
The head of the lava giant was knocked away.
Ding ding ding…
The auction house was filled with chaos, with all kinds of cards appearing one after another. What was once a spacious auction house was suddenly crowded with attendants.
Various cards had different light effects, making the auction house look like a dance club, colorful and lively.
When Celica saw these people fighting among themselves, she became very angry.
She could already predict that tonight there would surely be injuries, and many of them!
They did not die at the hands of the enemy, but rather at the hands of their own people.
Moreover, there are some who already have grudges against each other…
One noble sneaked up behind another noble, raised his sword, and swung at him.
Swish!
Blood sprayed everywhere, and the man shouted, "Who?"
"The one who wants your life."
This was the best time for revenge, and everything could be blamed on the terrorists and the Corleone family.
"Jeff, do something useful…"
Before Celica could finish speaking, a pretty face was already in front of her.
Bang!
The dagger and the longsword clashed again.
Just as Celica was about to exert herself, she saw Minaret strike and retreat, disappearing into the darkness once more.
Bang!
Celica turned and swung her sword, blocking Minaret’s second attack.
The two top fighters began to battle in the colorful lights and shadows.
Sometimes, darkness is not the best cover; these bright colors are more suitable for Minaret to shine.
"What do you want to do?" Celica shouted, "I will give you an explanation about the dark elf."
"Can you hand her over to me?" Minaret’s voice came from all directions.
"I need to take her back to the church; it’s the rule!" Celica yelled.
"There’s nothing to discuss!"
Minaret’s figure began to move again.
"That voice, is it Lord Minaret?" The dark elf in the cage listened to Minaret’s voice, tears shining in her eyes.
She did not cry when she was badly hurt, did not cry when she was captured, did not cry when the collar was put on her, and did not cry when she was sold in front of everyone.
Only when she heard Minaret’s voice could she not hold back her emotions.
……
"What’s going on…" Saaya felt cold sweat on his forehead. "Everyone is at the sixth tier, but the power Celica can unleash is a bit scary. Karoso, let’s go… Karoso?"
Saaya turned his head to look and was suddenly very shocked.
Where is Karoso? Why did he run away?
