Seven Deadly Sins System

Chapter 127 Holy Magician

The territory of Earl Heath is located at the edge of the Sun Kingdom and apart from the Earl, there are only a few more Great Warriors in this part of the kingdom.

Among these Great Warriors was Royce, a Priest and the person responsible for the branches of the Holy Church in this area,

His strength, coupled with his status as a Priest meant that Royce's status was extraordinary and even Earl Heath wouldn't be willing to offend him.

But at this moment, Royce was walking respectfully behind a seemingly frail old man, his expression solemn.

This old man wore a long golden robe embroidered with many gems of different colors on its cuffs and held a golden scepter in his right hand.

"High Priest, what can I do for you?", Royce lowered his head and asked respectfully, always standing half a step behind the old man.

In response, High Priest Hayden shook his head casually:

"You don't have to worry about me. I just came here to investigate the disappearance of my apprentice."

When Royce heard his words, he was stunned.

It was well known among the extraordinary people of the Sun Kingdom that Hayden really loved his only apprentice.

Who would actually dare to touch the beloved apprentice of a Holy Magician?

"High Priest, I'm sure that your apprentice will be fine. I'll order the people below to look for any clues. I'm sure we will find her.", Royce immediately spoke up and he was about to continue, when he noticed that Hayden's expression suddenly changed.

Hayden raised his head and looked at the horizon, as many scenes flashed in his eyes.

"What's wron-", Royce was about to ask, but before he could finish his words, Hayden waved the golden scepter casually and flew away.

Seeing this, Royce understood that something serious must have happened and he became nervous.

"Come here! Send people to see if anything has changed in the surrounding area!", he yelled, his voice spreading throughout the church.

Chu Wuyao ran away as fast as she could, not hesitating in the slightest.

In her mind, there was no reason to risk her life in order to try to stop Xu Zian and even if she did, it was very likely that she would be unable to.

While this was going on, the aura of the bloody giant became even stronger and its body quickly became larger and larger, matching the increase of the blood river's expansion.

Under Chu Wuyao's stunned eyes, the scene of the apocalypse seemed to be taking place, with a terrifying giant that was hundreds of meters tall and whose body was made out of blood standing at its very center.

"Is this whole world going to be destroyed?", she couldn't help but wonder while at the same time, her legs never stopped running and she continuously cast spells in order to increase her speed.

Glancing at the river made out of blood, Chu Wuyao was sure that if nothing changed, it would continue expanding, covering this territory, the Sun Kingdom and eventually the entire continent.

A chill ran down Chu Wuyao's spine when she imagined this scene, realizing that she might be able to witness something terrifying.

Quickly, she made a decision.

With a thought of her mind, a blue talisman appeared in her hand, which was the Teleportation Talisman that she had previously obtained from the Mist Dragon's hesitance.

Its function was quite simple: as long as it was activated, it would teleport the user away, although the place it would teleport the user to was completely random.

This meant that if one was particularly unlucky, they might get teleported straight to the den of a vicious monster and end up becoming its snack.

Even then, this Teleportation Talisman had always been Chu Wuyao's trump card and it was it was exactly the reason why she had always been so nonchalant despite her situation being very dangerous at times.

She was a little unwilling to use it, but in the current situation, she knew that it was the only thing that might save her.

With this in mind, Chu Wuyao was about to activate it and escape this place.

However, just before she could do so, her hand holding the Teleportation Talisman suddenly paused.

From the corner of her eye, Chu Wuyao saw a dazzling golden light piercing through the sky and rushing towards this direction, flying straight towards the bloody giant that stood above what had now become a sea made out of blood.

The speed of this golden light was very high and before she could react, it had appeared in front of Xu Zian.

Then, it landed on his bloody body.

"Boom!"

A loud noise spread, not only in this place, but throughout the territory.

Following this noise, Chu Wuyao noticed that the earth below her feet was shaking violently, as if an earthquake was going on.
