Chapter 1022: Be a human shield? What a waste

A sudden crisis was resolved simply.

I also knew that if the infected person was allowed to stay on the Sphinx, there would definitely be a grand attack targeting Lige in the future.

No, even now, this grand attack targeting Li Ge cannot be said to be over.

"Bishop Luan, Bishop Andre, please take all the priests who are currently on the floating magic battleship to hold a purification ceremony."

"The methods of the Abyss have been known for being weird since ancient times. Even if we eliminate the infected, we are not sure whether there will be any problems left."

"So, you should get this done immediately."

Staring coldly at the scene where Mero killed the enemy with one sword, Nayisa turned her head, looked at the two bishops behind her, and gave these instructions.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The two bishops immediately received the instructions and went down to prepare.

"You too, burn the body on the spot, no one is allowed to approach or contact it, and remain on alert. The alert state is not allowed to be lifted until the Sphinx lands."

Mero sheathed his sword and gave orders to the knights around him.

"Yes, Your Highness."

All the knights, including the two knight captains riding flying monsters, took orders.

"Uh-huh!"

The Sword of Marfa, which was flying in the air, returned through the air and fell into Li Ge's hand, trembling slightly, as if asking for credit from Li Ge.

"You know you're awesome, right?"

Rige knocked on the blade of Marfa's sword, then sheathed the holy sword and turned his attention back to the so-called infected person.

"Is this the infected person who was eroded by the abyss's breath pollution?"

Li Ge spoke.

The breath of the abyss, as the name suggests, is a breath that only exists in the abyss.

Just like there is air everywhere in the human world, there is also a ubiquitous atmosphere in the abyss, which is the breath of the abyss.

To the abyssal creatures, the abyssal breath is no different from air, and there is nothing strange about it. However, to the source life, the abyssal breath is a highly toxic, even a terrible virus.

People who are contaminated with the aura of the abyss will not only suffer from various physical discomforts, but also become mentally abnormal. They will eventually become violent men whose bodies and minds are polluted and corroded, and become puppets that can be manipulated by abyssal creatures at will. They will never be able to survive again. freedom.

This is not the scariest place.

The most terrifying thing about the abyssal breath is that once it invades the human body, it is completely unpredictable.

It will take root in a place deeper than the person's body and spirit that the virus can reach, and unless it breaks out, the person who has been eroded by its pollution will not find out about his problem until he dies, and will remain as before. , normal life and actions.

As for others, unless they witness the aura of the abyss erupting and the infected going crazy, they have no way of detecting the presence of the abyss, let alone knowing who around them has become infected.

The silver-ranked knight in front of him obviously succeeded in boarding the floating magic warship because of this.

"That's one of the scariest things about the abyss."

Next to her, Nayisa saw Li Ge staring at the body on the ground and immediately spoke out.

"Even though the Source has fought against the Abyss many times and has been researching ways to find infected people since a long time ago, neither we humans nor the more powerful groups in history have been able to do this in the end."

"However, abyssal creatures and abyss believers are able to control these abyssal breaths and achieve the purpose of controlling a person unconsciously."

"With such means, needless to say, abyssal creatures, those hateful abyss believers can also easily invade major forces and races, spreading their tentacles throughout the world."

As soon as Nayisa finished speaking, Mero, who returned from sheathing his sword, continued.

"In the source, no matter which force or race it is, there may be infected people inside who are unknowingly controlled by the abyss."

"So, no matter how careful we are, it is still inevitable that infected people will get into this floating magic warship."

"Fortunately, Mr. Marfa is by my side this time, otherwise, my sin would have been huge."

If there is any force in the source that is least likely to have infected people or puppets contaminated by the abyss, then there is only the Holy Sword Holy See.

Because there is a holy sword in the Holy Sword Holy See.

The Holy Sword is the only existence currently known to have power that can be described as a natural enemy of the abyss.

Wherever the holy sword is, as long as its holy light is allowed to bloom, no matter what kind of abyssal power it is, it will become invisible.

Therefore, the Holy Sword Church will fully open the Sword Hall and hold a prayer ceremony every month, allowing anyone to enter the Sword Hall to pray regularly.

One of the biggest purposes of doing this is to find the infected people who have been contaminated by the abyss' breath.

People with more important status, such as the eldest princess of the empire like Mello, would regularly organize an event to enter the sword hall to pray and test whether they have become infected.

If there is, Nayisa and other senior leaders of the Holy Sword Holy See will immediately take measures, either to capture or execute the opponent, or to pray to the Holy Sword and borrow the power of the Holy Sword to drive away the breath of the abyss.

"It's a pity that he couldn't persist. Otherwise, Marfa's power should be able to save him, right?"

Li Ge sighed and said this to the corpse on the ground.

"Your Excellency, there is no need to be sad." Mero said quickly: "Looking at this man's condition, he has obviously been eroded by the pollution of the abyss for a long time. Otherwise, he would not have immediately entered a state of madness as soon as he was bathed in the light of the holy sword."

"With such heavy pollution, even if you and Mr. Marfa are kind and willing to save him, it will take a lot of time."

"For such a long time, the person behind using the abyssal breath pollution to corrode him cannot sit still and wait for death. The abyssal breath in his body will definitely be stimulated, making him crazy and desperate to harm you."

The opponent's performance just now has proved this.

Strictly speaking, this person is actually innocent.

Judging from his previous performance, Li Ge was 90% sure that the other party did not know that he had become an infected person and was eroded and contaminated by the abyss.

But just because he became an infected person eroded and contaminated by the breath of the abyss, he was mercilessly killed.

There is no way, compared to Li Ge, the wielder of the holy sword, a silver-level knight is undoubtedly insignificant.

Therefore, in order to prevent Li Ge from being in danger, Mello decisively killed the innocent infected person without even thinking.

The rest of the people probably have the same idea. For example, Bishop Lu An and Bishop Andre, including Nayisa, the female pope of the Holy Sword Holy See. When encountering such a situation, they will definitely choose to sacrifice each other without hesitation to ensure that The safety of Li Ge, the wielder of the Holy Sword.

Although Li Ge felt some sympathy for this, he was unable to hold Mello and others accountable for this.

After all, they are also trying to protect themselves.

After thinking about it, Li Ge still did not choose to use resurrection magic on the knight to resurrect him.

There is no other reason, the impact is too great.

Even though the magic technology and magic system in this world are extremely advanced, Li Ge is still certain that there is no heaven-defying magic that can resurrect the dead.

If there is, it is impossible that the people of the Reinnail family who have been in this world of sources for a long time did not bring knowledge about this kind of magic to the Akasha continent.

And if the ancient magic civilization of the Akasha continent had knowledge about the magic of resurrection, among other things, the people of the Reinnail family would definitely not be reduced to the point where only Liz is the only descendant left.

If the ancient magic civilization had resurrection magic, then even if it is eleven thousand years apart, even if the modern magic civilization fails to revive this knowledge, it should still be able to obtain some records related to it.

But Li Ge has been in the Akasha continent for a long time, but he has never heard of magic involving the resurrection of the dead.

Even Yuri, a strategic magician, showed that her world view had been subverted when she first learned that Li Ge could use the magic of resurrection. Obviously, in her consciousness, resurrecting the dead was no longer a mere matter. Magic can do it.

That's a miracle.

That is divine power.

From Yuli's performance, Li Ge could only see this feeling.

To sum up, the existence of resurrection magic, even in the world of Source, is probably no less powerful than a miracle.

As a new arrival, Li Ge was not willing to expose too much in this place where strong men were everywhere. Even if he was not afraid, he did not want to cause trouble.

Therefore, even though he knew that the knight was innocent, Li Ge still did not choose to resurrect him.

He is not a standard good person, nor is he a standard evil person.

As long as it does not have a great impact on himself, Li Ge does not mind showing some kindness, just like when he rescued refugees in the Mapros Territory, and in the capital of King Li Yestije in the world of the undead. Those innocent people went to confront the alien species in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick.

But when he feels that it is unnecessary and will affect him, Li Ge will not be overflowing with compassion, and will still choose to ignore it when he should ignore it.

If this were not the case, in the world of magic, after all the events were over, Lige would not be indifferent to the death of some people after resurrecting Hisahito, Fushiguro Megumi, Kugizaki, and Nanami Kento.

For example, Noctua is on the right path.

The principal of Tokyo Magic High School has a close friendship with Gojo Satoru, and is even more like the panda's parents.

But not only did Li Ge not have a close relationship with him, he was even on his guard. Not only was he tested by him when he entered the Conjuring College, but he also threatened to keep an eye on him to prevent him from misbehaving.

Under such circumstances, Li Ge really had no reason to deliberately resurrect the other party, so he never mentioned resurrecting him from beginning to end.

Interestingly, although Gojo Satoru and others knew that Lige had the power to resurrect others, they saw that Lige had no intention of resurrecting Noctua, so they didn't say anything and selectively ignored the matter.

Perhaps, they felt that this kind of power could not be used casually. Seeing that Li Ge didn't mention it, they thought that Li Ge couldn't afford the price, so they didn't mention it deliberately, right?

Therefore, Noctua Zhengdao, the principal of a high school who was like a gang leader, was ruthlessly given up by Li Ge.

The same is true now, Li Ge finally chose to give up this knight.

"Let him return to dust and return to dust."

Li Geduo glanced at the other party and said this.

"We will."

Mello nodded seriously.

Seeing that everyone around them had already started working, the two bishops and a group of priests sang purification magic on the deck and held a purification ceremony. The knights also stood up straight at their respective posts with tense faces. Li Ge was in high spirits. A missing opening.

"Jelina, Xiluen, let's go back to the room."

After such an incident, Li Ge was no longer in the mood to waste time on the deck.

"Yes, Master."

The two nymph girls who had been following silently responded immediately with crisp voices.

"I will go back to your room with you, Your Excellency."

Nayisa's hand holding the scepter tightened slightly and she quickly expressed this.

"The infected person attacked just now. I don't know if there will be any other malicious intentions against you in the future. I have to stay near you to take care of you."

This is the reason given by Nayisha.

As for whether she has other things on her mind, only she knows.

Anyway, there was no way she would watch Li Ge and two beautiful, delicious and alluring nymphs alone in the room.

What? What do you think we should do tonight?

Just don’t sleep!

Your room is so big, can't you just find a spot there and pray?

Nayisa also wears energy-boosting magic items. Just staying up all night will not have any impact on her.

Thinking of this, Nayisa glanced at Mello without leaving any trace.

This is also to prevent Her Royal Highness the Princess from sending anything weird to you again!

It will bring you harm!

"Then I will follow you."

Melo didn't seem to notice Nayisa's intense gaze, as if she wanted to eat someone, and he continued to talk to himself.

"If something happens again, I can serve as a human shield for you."

As soon as these words came out, Li Ge suddenly glanced at Mello without any trace.

After taking a brief look at the other party's voluptuous and uneven body, Li Ge curled his lips.

It would be too wasteful to use this body as a human shield.

Of course, he would not say this out loud.

At that moment, the group left the deck and returned to the room.

Afterwards, not only was a purification ceremony held on the deck, but everyone on the entire floating magic warship, except for those who were present at the time and had already bathed in the light of the holy sword, was subject to extremely strict surveillance and inspection. , to confirm whether there are other infected people or people with evil intentions among them.

Under such circumstances, the floating magic warship sailed out of the border of Kaledohat and landed at a border city of another country at night.
