<h4>Volume 5 Chapter 274: The Truth Behind The Secret Of Angus City</h4>
Trantor: The Light
Edits by Kenny
In the central area of Aldridge Empire, the airspace near Angus City, the church along the Ryder River outside Andorra Town, the girls of Olsylvia Academy, the Listabel Academy and the Dimiost Academy retreated to this area.
Themanders at the scene were the student presidents of the three academies. Presidents Angelia, Alephia and ddis had a stony-faced expression. When they came, they didn’t bring a light mage with them. Aside from the Radiant Church, light mages ounted for a deficient proportion among the mages, and it was not easy to find decent ones.
The onlypetent light mage in the Olsylvia Academy was President Lucia, the “Holy Page.” However, she wasn’t here. Without light magic, no substantial damage could be done to the abyss demons, which led to their present passive situation.
Be carefully moved to the inner area of the church. The bodies of the staff in the chapel had disappeared entirely. Obviously, they were killed by the abyss demons, not the crypt spiders. They hadn’t even entered the ce, so it must have been something else.
There were too many outsiders around her, else Be would have summoned her own group of abyss demons to fight the enemy. Abyss demons often killed each other in the abyss regions, like predator and prey. Those crypt spiders belonged to a lower abyss demon in the abyss food chain and theoretically couldn’t defeat the abyss demons around Be.
On the way to the inner part of the church, Be saw traces of strange blood on the ground that smelled a bit like honey. After much deliberation, she took out her invisibility cloak from her storage ring and put it over her body. She continued to explore ahead in this manner. With her invisibility cloak, Be had also grabbed the Savior’s Great Evil ying Sword. Perhaps it was her circumstances that allowed Be, a Demon King c** Demon God, to be extremely handy with a Savior’s weapon. She had almost no side effects from using it.
On the way to the gates of the rest area of the church, Be jumped with fright when two variant abyss demons broke out of the gates. The abyss demonic poison bee was different from the ordinary demonic poison bee. In fact, these abyss demonic poison bees were more than two meters tall when standing upright, like the size of an adult human. The horrifying thing was that these abyss demonic poison bees walked around upright like people, the sight of their heads was enough to send anyone screaming in horror.
“It’s really great! Arge group of prey has arrived outside! We’ll use them as raw materials... I caught one just now, but the Queen didn’t allow me to... Ugh, those crypt spiders outside are causing trouble again...”
“That is Lord Faust’s prey. Don’t worry. When the Queen sends down her orders, that group of human girls will not be able to escape. Although they are skilled in magic, what are they to abyss demons like us...”
As the two abyss demonic poison bees walked and chatted, Be could clearly hear every word they spoke. Regardless of race, the abyss demonguage could be understood by Demon Gods. Be didn’t bother listening to their nonsense any longer. She stood behind the two abyss demonic poison bees waving her Great Evil ying Sword in a horizontal split. Just like that, two demonic poison bee heads fell onto the ground, leaving two bloody decapitated bodies in ce.
Be entered through the door. Inside was originally a rest area for the church members when the Radiant Church had built the ce. Now, it had be a demonicir, much like the beehives in her previous world, with thick honeb walls everywhere. By the looks of it, this was merely a temporary hive. It looked like the abyss demonic poison bees built their nests here for the time being.
The queen bee, the head of the abyss demonic poison bees, wasn’t here. In this punishmentir, a group of abyss demonic poison bees were on guard. Their numbers were about a hundred. Aside from the abyss demonic poison bees, Be also noticed the captured humans. On the sticky honeb wall, there were seven or eight human beauties. Their dignified hairstyles and long blond hair suggested they were nuns and knights who guarded the church.
For a small church of this size, there should be around five nuns plus three female guardian knights ording to the usual arrangement. Be didn’t care about the remaining priests and male knights. She was only interested in women, so she deliberately left out the men.
The clothes on the nuns and female knights had been dissolved, exposing their charming snow-white bodies that were imprisoned in a viscous liquid. The liquid seemed to be alive, stretching out numerous transparent fluid tentacles in the shape of human hands as they groped the girls.
The nuns and female knights had their mouths forcefully opened by transparent liquid pipes. Something strange was being poured down their throats. Be looked at their plump breasts and slightly bulging bellies and thought of a terrifying idea. Abyss demons, regardless of race, liked to hunt other intelligent beings such as humans and use them as their birthing machines. Men were used as food, while women had other uses. These records are confidential to the Radiant Church and not known to the general public.
The imprisoned nuns and female knights were filled with exhaustion, with panic in their eyes. After they were attacked by the abyss demonic poison bees, the men had all been eaten. When they regained consciousness, they found themselves imprisoned in this hive. The demonic poison bees obviously wanted to do strange things to their bodies.
Be shifted her gaze further inside and found Princess Effie. Her surprise was marred with a little disappointment. These abyss demonic poison bees did a poor job this time. Princess Effie was unconscious, yet her clothes were basically intact. Perhaps they were saving her for some great lord, so the abyss demonic poison bees didn’t date to subject her to the same treatment as the other girls.
To deal with more than one hundred abyss demonic poison bees, Be felt it was pertinent for her to call for backup. Just as she was hesitating whether or not to ask Lisha or Kriss for help, the situation took a turn. From the ground sprung arge number of crypt spiders that broke through and crazily attacked the abyss demonic poison bees as soon as they came out.
Abyss demons were used to killing each other, and those in the wild who didn’t take refuge under a Demon God strongly disyed such behavior. The crypt spiders frenziedly attacked the abyss demonic poison bee. Unlike feeding on humans, these demonic poison bees could increase their strength when consumed. This was an important difference between the two.
Be had just ambushed and killed the two abyss demonic poison bees, the blood that spattered on the ground stimting the bloody natures of the crypt spiders. They hunted and attacked, following the smell of blood. When the abyss demons were at war, they basically ignored their surroundings, so Be She was able to kill more of them with her sword. However, the first thing she had to do was to save the prisoners. She removed her invisibility cloak and hugged Princess Effie.
“Princess Eiffie... Princess Effie, wake up...”
“Be... this is the abyss demons’...”
“I know, so let’s go! We’ll take them with us as well!”
Be was fortunate to find a small wooden cart for carrying goods. Her Great Evil ying Sword was able to cut through the viscous liquid that imprisoned these girls. Be managed to save all the nuns and the female knights. Before they could even thank her, Be stretched out her hand and pressed on their bellies. These girls vomited a sticky, unknown liquid at once.
“Thank goodness... Anyter, and you would have be their kind. Do you know of any other exits here?”
“Thank you, may the Goddess of Light... Cough, cough, there are other exits.”
Under the guidance of the nuns, Be carried Princess Effie as she loaded the nuns and the female knights onto the small wooden cart. Before leaving, she covered them with a cloth. To guard against them from turning into demonic beings due to abyss toxin residues, Be tied them up with the red rope that she carried with her.
The nuns very much wanted to argue that they weren’t infected, but Be blocked their mouths with a white cloth. Princess Effie didn’t know what to say at the time. Be didn’t seem to be doing anything wrong, but her binding methods were a bit strange. Of course, this “ssic” binding style was used in the previous world and very famous in a certain ind country. These Other World people wouldn’t recognize it, only Lisha and Kriss, who had transmigrated from Earth.
Be was a Demon King and Demon God, so it was not possible for her to not know if the nuns were really infected. She only did so to prepare for the eventual “sumptuous feast.” These nuns and female knights were all beautiful girls. In fact, all the members chosen by the Radiant Church in the important cities of the various human empires had an attractive appearance. This was rted to their image as the Radiant Church, so they couldn’t afford to be careless.
Be wanted to integrate them into her own team and assign them to one of her own. With the new chief of the Radiant Church’s Law Enforcement Team, Mathilde, in charge, the abyss demonic poison bees hadn’t done anything to them. They were still perfectly intact. At this thought, Be secretly took the white cloth and blindfolded these female captives and then waved her hands in several summoning gestures. Princess Effie was busy watching out for the crypt spiders and the abyss demonic poison bees that were all around them, so she hadn’t even noticed Be’s little actions.
Demon World Princess Diazplied with Be’s summoning and emerged from the dark magic array on the ground. She wore a strange mask that made her face invisible. Be took the opportunity to jump back, pretending to be blown away by Princess Diaz’s dark energy ball.
“Be... are you alright? Y-you’re from the Demon World. Why are you here?”
“Hmph, humble human beings, I shall take these handmaidens with me. Goodbye...”
“Stop it! Damn it...”
“Be, don’t chase after her. She must have gone to the Demon World. Let’s say that the nuns... fought for the Goddess of Light till the end...”
Demon World Princess Diaz used dark magic to take away the small wooden cart with the nuns and female knights into the dark space, then quickly retreated. Be pretended she wanted to go after her but was held back by Princess Effie. She was only acting with her trusted aide, Princess Diaz. Otherwise, Be couldn’t think of a better way to take the girls away. By the time she got back to see Kriss and Lisha, it would be even harder to smuggle away the girls, so she had to resort to this tactic, sessfully tricking Princess Effie with her acting skills.
Princess Effie was tricked by Be’s act of risking her own life to save her. Be’s courage made it almost impossible for her to suspect that she was in collusion with Demon World Princess Diaz. She intentionally helped Be keep this incident a secret since Be was known to have a good rtionship with the Radiant Church, yet she failed to save its followers. Seeing that they were captured by demons, she was afraid that it might affect Be’s rtionship with the Radiant Church. Hence, Princess Effie chose not to mention it.
When the white cloth covering the eyes of the nuns and the female knights was removed, they had entered the dark space. Their hands were shackled in chains that hung from the ceiling, their bodiespletely naked. They had also been tied in a strange and shameful posture by that Holy Knight with red ropes.
A loli with her crimson hair tied in pigtails held a ck whip as she looked at them with a wicked smile. She was wearing a Queen’s dress that seemed almost out of ce with her appearance. The pair of unusuallyrge breasts on her chest rather suited the loli.
“Mistress Be has handed you over to me for questioning. Little sisters, I prefer to y some exciting games. Okay, let’s start then... Don’t move. This is my dark space, and you can’t escape... Just rx and have some fun with me!”
Looking at all kinds of strange props brought out by Princess Diaz, the nuns and female knights were filled with panic and uneasiness, and a hint of shyness. It wasn’t until now that they discovered the “betrayal” of the fallen Holy Knight Be, but it was toote for regret. Demon World Princess Diaz was already beginning to do all sorts of unspeakable things to them...
They couldn’t take refuge in the chapel much longer. When Be and the others arrived at the hall outside the chapel, they saw three girls in a sorry state. After the crypt spidersunched a random attack, they too suffered from injuries. If Lisha hadn’t stayed at the frontlines and Kriss’ sword array, they wouldn’t have managed to deter them until Be and Princess Effie had returned.
These girls were in quite a mess, their school uniform sttered with venom from the crypt spiders as if they had collectively ruined their clothes. Large areas of their uniforms had been dissolved by the special venom of the crypt spiders, exposing their snow-white skin for all eyes to see.
As they were all girls, President Angelia and the others didn’t think it was a problem to reveal their bodies to each other. Had Be been a stepte, she might’ve witnessed the grand scene of theirplete nakedness.
The results of Demon World Princess Diaz’s interrogation in the dark space would be sent to Be through a specialmunication between a demon and her master. Be already knew the exact way to the other church exit. ording to the information given by the nuns, Angus had an ident as early as a week ago. The Radiant Church and the Aldridge Empire had been blocking the news, only iming that people had gone missing.
The truth was even more horrible. The upper rungs of the church and the top imperial officials in Aldridge were too afraid to reveal it. Only a short distance from Angus City, the Rofsky Camp was set up to monitor the anomalies of Angus City. The day before Be and the others arrived, they had lost all contact with Rofsky Camp.
Be didn’t dare to tell them the truth because she was afraid it might frighten the girls. In fact, there were arge number of abyss demons in Angus City. The Aldridge Empire couldn’t deal with them by itself and had to drag the situation to buy some time. The Radiant Church nned to prepare arge-scale light magic spell “The Judgement of God” to purify the entire Angus City in one stroke. However, it would take them some time to prepare, and time was the problem. The abyss demons in Angus City had already spread to the surrounding areas.
The person controlling the abyss demons wasn’t one of the Twelve Demon Kings. Be was sure that there were arge number of Abyss Demonic Kings in the abyss that Demon Kings couldn’tmand them.
“Be, you’re injured... What’s wrong? This blood seems to be...”
“Ahem, Lisha, don’t ask. Come with me. I’ll take you all out of here. We won’t be able to hold out here much longer. We need to leave while the crypt spiders and the abyss demonic poison bees inside are killing each other.”
The blood on Be’s lips was fake. She hadn’t been injured at all. Lisha and Kriss, who were well aware of Be’s strength, could easily see through her act. Fortunately, Be stopped them from speaking, avoiding a “crisis of faith.” The rtionship she had established with Princess Effie mustn’t be so easily destroyed.
“There are demonic beings everywhere... Where should we go!”
“President Angelia, President Alephia, President ddis, please believe me. I will take you to a safe ce near the Ryder River. We can’t stay here tonight.”
Under Be’s sincere lobbying, President Angelia and her entourage followed and left through the secret entrance originally meant for the church followers’ emergency escape. They finally made it to the other side of the Ryder River.
Shortly after Be and the others left, two strange shadows appeared in the sky above the church. One was a tall and slender mysterious man in a ck robe while the other was a petite loli. The two were suspended in the air at a distance from each other as if they knew each other but were on guard against each other.
“These damn low-level abyss creatures! They’re always messing things up! It’s a pity you had to witness their failure.”
“Faust... your joke is not funny at all! Let it be. I’ll go back to the city to rest first. My wound hasn’t been healed yet after thest fight with Lolita, that naughty girl!”
When the girl disappeared, the gentleman’s eyes revealed a cold look. They were only temporarily cooperating, and there were some things he had to do alone.
“The crypt spider king and the abyss poison queen bee are really useless. It looks like I’ll have to add others...”
