He gently stroked Warwick's head, quietly waiting for his answer.
"It was... a... laugh... that was... very... unpleasant..."
He used the last of his strength to say a few words.
"Is that so? I will avenge you."
"So, as you wish—"
"Become—my sustenance."
Annihilate the eyes, launch.
Warwick's body gradually decomposed into black and white particles.
"Thank you, my Lord."
Warwick vanished into thin air.
Only one sentence remains here.
Chang Yan stood up without saying a word and walked back.
There are no tombstones, no memorials.
Because the saying itself is his tombstone.
"Let's go, Jack."
"I'm angry again now."
Chapter Fifty-Four: Cold
Chang Yan quickly caught up with the group, and the Jack on his body attracted everyone's attention.
"Hey, Changyan, isn't this your pet? What's it doing here?"
Hyoudou Issei recognized Jack at a glance, whom he had seen at Chang Yan's house last time, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
"It was waiting for me in a tree at school, but I didn't expect it to be locked up too. I can only say it was bad luck."
A completely emotionless answer.
Looking at Chang Yan's expressionless face, Hyoudou Issei felt that it was best not to provoke Chang Yan at this time.
Silent journey
A silent atmosphere fermented in the air.
However, as they approached their destination, everyone became more vigilant.
After passing through several flower beds, the scene of the playground came into view.
A huge magic circle, shimmering with an unknown glow, was imprinted on the ground.
Several figures lay in the center of the magic circle.
Outside the magic circle, several women knelt on the ground, chanting indescribable incantations.
Nausea, dizziness, double vision, and the whispering of some creatures in my ears.
Just by listening to those incantations, all sorts of symptoms appeared on everyone's bodies.
"This is really uncomfortable. Just as Master Edward said, everyone, move closer to me."
Legre shakily took out a scroll that was shimmering with an unknown light, and then opened it.
A halo of light enveloped everyone.
In a daze, they seemed to see—
Those countless spheres shimmering with infinite brilliance.
Besides the usual saying.
His shadow is eroding that radiance.
However, as the halo dissipated, the sphere disappeared like a phantom.
The various symptoms then disappeared.
"Looks like it's working well. Aikawa-kun, Koshimizu-kun, Hyodo-kun, and Tsunehiko-kun, those guys are yours to handle. Daphne and I will support you from behind."
"Um"
"give it to me."
"Ok"
"No need, I'm enough on my own. A mere bunch—"
A cold voice interrupted the conversation, and Chang Yan walked out expressionlessly.
"Just trash."
The figure disappears.
Then, blood splattered.
Those figures who were praying all collapsed.
Chang Yan's figure appeared next to the summoning circle.
Because of their previously enhanced dark vision, they were able to see clearly.
Chang Yan's hands were still dripping with blood.
"So fast!"
"Did he kill someone again...?"
"Hey, what are you doing? Get over here right now. How are we supposed to break this broken magic array?"
Chang Yan's impatient voice rang out, and they had no choice but to walk to the summoning circle.
"Hey, don't you think Chang Yan seems to be in a bad mood since he came back?"
"That seems to be the case."
Hyoudou Issei whispered something to Aikawa Ayumu in a low voice.
Legre lay on the ground and stared for a long time before finally shaking his head.
"My knowledge is too limited to see how to break this magic array. Moreover, there is no priest in charge here, so I don't know what to do."
"This magic circle is quite special."
Edward's voice suddenly appeared.
"This summoning circle doesn't directly perform the summoning ritual. Instead, it first summons a wisp of their god's projection, then uses the sacrifices as containers, and finally, those containers sacrifice themselves to open up space, thereby summoning the god's true form. The high priest of this church was originally the one in charge of this summoning ritual, but she's now imprisoned by me, so the summoning circle is no longer operated. However, since she'll also be my human battery, you just need to kill those sacrifices."
"But you'd better hurry. Without those who pray, your arrival is only being postponed for a while. Besides, I need to get on with my own business; I won't have time to worry about you anymore. Good luck!"
Edward spoke a long speech, and then his voice disappeared.
"You want to kill those sacrifices? Let me do it. My hands are already dirty, I don't mind getting a little dirtier."
Chang Yan slowly walked up to the women who were acting as containers and raised his hand.

The other side of the battlefield
A three-way melee.
Initially, the Church of the Light of Truth and the Church of Shub-Migo were locked in a fierce battle.
Then the Church of the Invisible Appearance suddenly intervened, making things very difficult for the other two parties.
That is to say-
The scene was very chaotic.
"Namo Amitabha Buddha! Let me show you what it truly means—"
"The Buddha's Dharma is boundless!"
"Da da da da da da da da da da da da——"
Sparks flew, accompanied by screams and a constant stream of blood.
(I bloom amidst the carnage, like a flower at dawn.)
"What's wrong with this monk! Why is he holding a Gatling gun?!"
"Help me, my magic is not working—ah!"
"These bullets are enchanted, everyone be careful!"
"Didn't they say the people in the Church of the Light of Truth are all scholars? Who said that? Step forward, you bastard! I'll chop you to pieces! What scholar carries a Gatling gun and an automatic rifle?! Ugh, you damned bald monk! You're making me so angry!"
While using her tainted armor to deflect bullets and magic flying towards her, Yuukawa Nanako was cursing the inaccurate intelligence when she was smeared in the face with Master Fazhu's "Boundless Buddhist Dharma," making her tremble with anger.
Suddenly, Nanako Yuukawa felt a chill in the air.
I initially thought it was some kind of magical effect, but it turned out the temperature was getting colder and colder, and it was the kind of colder that was affecting everyone indiscriminately.
"Damn it, this temperature is abnormal. Hey, you guys, quickly release some fireballs to dispel the chill."
Just as Yuukawa Nanako was directing several mages to use fireballs to ward off the cold, the members of the Light of Truth suddenly stopped firing and retreated.
"What's going on? Why did they run away? Shouldn't we be the ones running? Hey, Faceless, do you know what's going on? Also, stop using that guy's face, it's annoying to look at."
Yuukawa Nanako asked another priest next to her in a daze, and the priest's face was none other than Chang Yan's.
"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask? Forget it, let's just wipe out all those people from the Shub Church first. This world belongs to our Lord. For our Lord!"
As he spoke, Faceless glared menacingly at the followers of the Shab Church beside him, and they all raised their weapons.
A battle is about to erupt.
"clatter"
A tiny sound drew everyone's attention.
"That sound? It sounds like... footsteps."
"clatter"
"clatter"
"clatter"
The footsteps grew closer
And the chill was steadily increasing.
Her face was then revealed to everyone.
How should I describe it?
ice
Despite her beautiful face, she was filled with coldness.
And her blue hair fluttered gently in the breeze.
A chill spread out in all directions.
Not only did it make everyone's bodies feel incredibly cold, but it also chilled Yuukawa Nanako's heart to the bone.
"elder sister?"
Chapter Fifty-Five Sisters
With a trembling voice, Yuukawa Nanako revealed the identity of the visitor.
Unbelievable
