Chapter 1541: Chapter 643: The Gaze of the Outer God (2)

It was then that he realized.

The old man was specifically waiting for him; it was for doing business.

Your abacus beads are buried too deep!

Speaking of which—

It is reasonable for the target being helped to pay a fee.

But is killing and dropping equipment reasonable?

—God, are you stealing settings from video games and using them for profit!

At this moment, three final lines of small text appeared:

“How can sacred matters be described as ‘theft’? To save the love and peace on earth, don’t use mortal eyes to speculate on the benevolence of the Lord! (This is a message from the Lord a few hours ago.)”

“Explore this historical fragment.”

“—until you trigger the third mission of the Eternal Poem.”

No more words.

Let’s set off!

Shen Ye mounted the horse and galloped towards the distance.

—The horse was still provided by Valhado.

Valhado was indeed dead.

But when it was alive, I urged it to write back to the Church.

It really wrote back.

I just used the identity of a Human Race messenger to bring its letter back to the Church.

“Giddy up!”

Shen Ye rode swiftly.

About a few dozen minutes later, he left the desert and reached a plain.

The sky gradually darkened.

Cold rain scattered on the plain, producing an increasingly loud “rustling” sound.

The rainwater gradually poured down.

Under the wash of the rain, the bodies pierced and bound by iron chains in the soil gradually surfaced on both sides of the road.

At first, Shen Ye still checked one or two.

He eagerly used the newly advanced “Whispers of the Dark.”

But there were too many corpses in the plain.

He asked for a while and then walked for a while before he went numb.

According to the deceased—

—this historical fragment seems to be in the midst of war.

But they were all Normal people, and Shen Ye did not get much useful information.

It was late at night.

The rain got heavier and heavier.

Thunder and lightning.

A faint firelight suddenly appeared ahead.

“Giddy up!”

Shen Ye was overjoyed, urging the horse quickly.

Indeed.

He could directly open the door to the Church now.

But he wanted to genuinely walk through this world and see what it was really like.

The horse shuttled through the rain curtain.

In no time.

He arrived at the place where the fire was.

It was a simple temporary camp, with only a tent fixed by rusty chains and a magic fire that would not extinguish in the rain.

Three iron lances were erected high in front of the camp, and above them were some twisted monster corpses.

“Who goes there?”

Someone asked in a low voice.

“I am a messenger of the Church, Baxter. Who are you?” Shen Ye reined in his horse and asked.

“The Church? That’s great! White is saved!” the person said happily.

Immediately after.

Two people rushed out from the camp, examining Shen Ye carefully by the light of a torch.

A female archer and a male mage.

“Is he reliable?”

The female archer asked.

The male mage murmured a spell, glanced at Shen Ye, and breathed a sigh of relief:

“He carries the God Slayer sequence—he’s on our side!”

“Quickly, get inside, I’ll keep watch,” the female archer’s tone immediately became enthusiastic.

“Please help! Our companion is dying,” the male mage urged.

—Accepted by the humans of this world!

Shen Ye happily dismounted and followed the mage into the camp.

He saw a broken large shield lying on the ground.

A man covered in blood lay on the large shield, groaning continuously.

Shen Ye hesitated a little.

He didn’t have any direct Healing Art.

—Kill him and then perform a resurrection spell, it might be quicker.

But killing this person would certainly cause misunderstandings.

What should he do?

“Can he be saved?”

The mage asked in a deep voice.

The archer outside the camp also cast a concerned gaze.

“He can be saved,”

Shen Ye said.

—How to save?

Should the Chaos Ship come and kneel again?

No, it is good at removing all kinds of negative states.

While Shen Ye was pondering, a water bag appeared in his hand.

Uncle Qi’s voice sounded:

“Give him this bowl of yellow wine, once he drinks it, his injuries will heal.”

“Great!” Shen Ye was overjoyed.

He held the water bag, lifted the man up, and poured a few sips of wine into him.

“Ah…”

The man groaned.

His injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Drinking my yellow wine is equivalent to performing a Sacrificial Ceremony for me, I bestow healing and take away his gratitude,”

Uncle Qi said.

Shen Ye understood.

But——

This is the Sacrificial Technique of Truth Creation.

What will the mage think?

“It’s the holy water of the Church! Wonderful!” the mage exclaimed with joy.

He bowed his head, took a bag of gold coins from his ring, and handed it to Shen Ye, saying sincerely:

“I know the holy water is precious, and I know its price is very high, please accept this as a reward.”

Shen Ye held the bag of gold coins.

Without looking, he knew there were a full hundred gold coins inside.

But in an instant——

A whole seventy gold coins disappeared in a flash!

A line of small glowing text appeared:

“Opening day!”

Shen Ye was speechless.

The “Master” indeed took seventy percent of the earnings.

Do you have to act so fast!

“No need to be polite, it is what I should do.” Shen Ye said.

He calmed himself, suddenly realizing that the mysterious sacrifice just now had been veiled by the Master as “holy water”.

Uncle Qi received the sacrifice.

He received thirty gold coins, joining the Human Race camp.

The “Master” received seventy gold coins.

The person was saved.

Everyone has a bright future!

That’s fine.

“Why are you camping in this wilderness?” Shen Ye asked.

The man called White sat up, took out a suit of armor, quickly put it on, and said:

“The angel envoy of the Outer God killed hundreds of people in Star Moon City and fled to the wilderness.”

“We are pursuing it.”

Angel envoy of the Outer God?

Shen Ye shook his head and said, “The rain is too heavy, the wilderness is full of corpses, and the road is muddy. Under such conditions, it might be difficult to pursue the monster.”

“Yes, so we now decide to hold this position,” White said.

He drew a two-handed greatsword and turned to shout towards the camp:

“Leia, come back and rest, I’ll take over!”

“Okay!”

The archer replied and walked towards the camp.

Suddenly—

The mage suddenly waved his magic wand and shouted sternly:

“Everyone fall back to my side – barriers, layer upon layer!”

The technique was completed.

One glowing barrier after another stood around the mage, forming a solid magic defense.

Everyone moved closer.

“Is it that envoy?”

The female archer asked.

“I don’t know, but I felt an extremely strong evil presence,” the mage said.

The ground shook slightly.

Everyone’s expression changed.

“Which direction, I’ll hold them off!”

White shouted.

“I don’t know!” the mage said.

Shen Ye looked around, suddenly raised his head, and gazed towards the sky.

Rain.

The raindrops turned blood-colored.

Blood rain.

Amidst this blood rain, a giant eyeball floated above the camp.

A line of glowing small text appeared:

“As members of the Old Order Camp, you are under the gaze of the Outer God Nyarlatotep,”

“The targets it stares at will gain the temporary status ‘Observed’.”

“If the status isn’t destroyed within ten seconds, you will lose self-awareness.”

Shen Ye’s face showed an expression of disbelief.

So powerful!

It’s almost ridiculously powerful!

Did they not say—

Their purpose in coming to the wilderness was to pursue the angel envoy of the Outer God?

Now the Outer God has directly descended!

“It’s the Outer God descending upon us, we are doomed,” the mage said, pale and trembling.

His two companions also lowered their arms, letting their weapons fall to the ground.

Everyone fell into complete despair.

Doomed.

No way out whatsoever.

In this instant——

Shen Ye suddenly shouted:

“Stay sharp, the battle has just begun!”

He raised his arm, which emitted a surging holy light, shooting straight into the sky.

“It’s holy shelter!”

The female archer screamed.

There is hope!

However, Shen Ye had not actually released any “holy shelter”.

His hand struck continuously in the void, adding the prefix over the “Observed” status above the four:

“Not.”

——Not Observed!

A series of “pop pop pop pop” sounds were heard, and the status above everyone’s heads disappeared as if solving a puzzle.

Shen Ye’s expression was solemn.

Outer God——

What is it?

How to fight it?

——I don’t know!
