Almighty Alchemist

Chapter Thirty-one: Laureate Saintess (in the middle of the night)

Open your eyes, in front of you is a splendid scene of gold and jade green.

Simone was stunned to find herself in a huge palace.

She was standing at the very front of the palace, surrounded by a group of barefooted young girls wearing snow-white robes and crowns of flowers on their heads, guarding her in the center.

They were chanting something in a low voice, and the strange Sanskrit rhythm lingered in their ears.

She herself was wearing the same snow-white sacrificial robe, and in front of her eyes was a tall man wearing a steel armor made of magic metal, walking towards her step by step.

A huge ferocious animal head is engraved on the armor. Near the animal head, there are circles of exquisitely decorated patterns, which emit the fluctuation of magic power. Behind him was a white battle robe that shone with holy light, looking majestic.

The owner of the armor had a young and handsome face, his eyes were bright, and the lines of his face were full of fortitude like an ax chiseled into stone.

He stepped up the obsidian steps, stood in front of him, and made a strange gesture to himself.

He stretched out his hands to himself, as if begging for something.

Simone looked at him in astonishment.

She had no idea what was going on and what to do with herself.

She looked around in horror, but when she turned her head, she saw a huge altar burning raging fire behind her.

Above the altar, a huge red energy gate opened like a black hole...

She was startled, and then turned her head to look in front of her again. The man's face was surprised by her reaction, and confusion appeared in his eyes.

"Galradia!" The furious roar woke up Simone who was in a trance.

There was a large group of old people wearing sacrificial robes at the bottom of the steps, and one of the leaders was yelling at her: "What are you doing? Hurry up and hand over the Great Bright Excalibur to Your Excellency the Great Conqueror!"

Simone was taken aback.

What?

She looked down and saw that she was holding a golden long sword shining with soft light in her hand.

The light of the golden long sword spreads towards the surroundings in the form of water lines visible to the naked eye.

Simone was a little panicked, and countless memories suddenly flooded her mind.

One picture after another quickly flashed through her mind, and she became a little dizzy again, shaking her body a few times.

A powerful big hand supported her from the waist, it was the man in steel armor and holy light battle robe in front of him.

He smiled: "Holy Maiden of Galadia, are you not feeling well?"

"Ah! Yes... yes. I'm a little dizzy." Simone nodded quickly.

She couldn't adapt to this sudden and huge change for a while.

saint? Galadia?

Yes, it seems that the owner of this body is called by this name.

But will he come into this body?

Why did she become some kind of saint in this wonderful place?

She looked at the man holding her in horror.

The man still had a smile on his face, and his voice was soft: "If that's the case, please give me the sword and rest early. Maybe it's because you are too devout to the gods and overworked. If you slack off occasionally, God will understand you."

"Ah!" Simone put the sword in the man's hand.

As soon as the man let go, Simone fell back a few steps, and several priestesses in white quickly supported her.

The man held the golden sword in his hand, turned to face the believers behind him, and slowly raised the golden sword in his hand above his head.

Under the sunlight, the golden sword of light emitted dazzling holy light.

An old priest in white robe shouted loudly: "Great conqueror, God has given you strength!"

Then kneel down.

"God, give you strength!"

Thousands of voices shouted at the same time.

Simone looked out the door in horror, and saw tens of thousands of people knelt down in front of the palace, before the man holding the great sword of light. They knelt down one wave after another, like the waves of the sea, one wave after another, stretching to the distance, to the bottom of the mountain, with no end in sight.

Looking from here, people are kneeling everywhere, making the sound of devout prayers.

Simone stared blankly at all this, not knowing what to do.

She didn't notice that she was standing next to this man, and she had endured the kneeling of thousands of believers together.

In the entire hall, only she and him were standing.

At that moment, perhaps only the man noticed this scene.

There was a strange light in his eyes, staying on Simone's body, seeing her panicked and bewildered appearance, he actually laughed.

"Do you... like to stand with me?" The voice with a masculine magnetic charm sounded in Simone's ear.

Simone was at a loss, and then passed out with a whimper.

It was dusk when Simone awoke.

She now knew where she was.

This is Mount Michael.

The place where she is located is called the Temple.

The name of her current body is Galadia, the crowned saint among the twelve saints of the temple, and the head of the twelve saints.

When her soul came into this body during the day, the temple was holding a sword ceremony.

Of course, she nearly screwed everything up.

She looked around at the sword awarding ceremony, her face was shocked, and she completely lost the appearance that a saint should have.

In the end, she even stood with His Excellency the Conqueror, accepted the pilgrimage of all peoples, and simply passed out irresponsibly.

This kind of thing is simply unforgivable for the temple.

Some saintesses have changed their expressions when they saw her.

It was sarcastic, funny and gloating.

"Galadea, you are really good at making such a big mistake in the sword-giving ceremony. I think your position as the Laureate Saintess has come to an end, and even becoming a Bottle-Holding Saintess is an extravagant dream."

That was the mockery of the other saintesses.

Simone didn't care about that at all.

To the disappointment of others, the temple's punishment for Galadia was delayed.

The Laureate is still the Laureate, still the head of the twelve saints, leading all the saints every day-even though Simone has no idea what to arrange for them.

When she entered this body, it may be because she was too hasty, and she was interrupted by the elder's scolding before she experienced a complete fusion, so there are many things she still doesn't know. She could even feel that in her body, Galadia's soul still existed independently, and was yelling at herself in a certain corner.

She could understand the anger of the former saint's soul, but the words she used were terrible.

It's hard to imagine how a noble saint can use such dirty words to describe herself.

She has a noble status, but not a noble soul.

Simone thought.

Days go by in this situation.

The turmoil at the sword-giving ceremony did not have any impact on the subsequent life, and the expected punishment never came, which made other saints who tried to step on Simone's head lose their patience.

Simone gradually became familiar with her work. Although Galadia's soul did not cooperate, she still inherited part of the memory.

The work of the saint is actually very simple, that is, to sacrifice to the gods, and to perform various missions on behalf of the will of the gods with a holy body in major ceremonial occasions. They do not have decision-making power, they are just issuers of orders and executors of power. To put it bluntly, they are puppets pushed to the fore.

The ones who really control the temple are the Temple Presbyterian Council and His Excellency the Conqueror.

The former represents the will of the gods, while the latter possesses powerful force and defends the status of the temple.

The rule of the temple is always going through various tests on the mainland, and there are always some rebels who try to challenge the authority of the temple. The significance of the conqueror is that he conquers all evil existences that do not obey the temple.

This year's temple conqueror is that handsome man in steel armor, his name is... Bathgate.

———————————

Twelve bells struck.

Xiu Yi's figure flashed, and he quickly rushed out of the teleportation room. Only a floating sentence was left: "You wait here, don't go anywhere."

Isado rushed out after him. The old man seemed unhurried, but he followed Xiu closely all the time.

The two walked towards the sacrificial temple together, and believers from all directions also came in panic. Obviously, they were also shocked by what happened today.

"Can you tell me what happened? How did God come down twice in one day?" Huey asked Isado in a low voice.

"This is something that the Scourge Church has never had since its establishment. I can only answer you, and I don't know."

"So this time, which god descended?"

"Of course you'll know when you see it."

On the sacrificial temple, the ceremony restarted.

Xiu Yi no longer stood at the corner of the temple as before, but stood directly with Isado.

Again he witnessed Isado calling out to the gods—poor old man, he stabbed himself twice in one day.

But this time, when Isado's blood was sprinkled on the altar, what appeared was no longer the shadow with great coercion, but a mass of pure white holy light.

Isado was visibly relieved when he saw the Holy Light appear.

Xiu Yi immediately knew the answer.

It seems that the one who came out this time is the god that the Scourge Church has been worshiping.

But in terms of aura... it's far inferior to the previous one.

The pure white holy light gradually condensed into an ice shadow in the flames above the altar.

A cold air swept through the hall in an instant.

Xiu Yi saw a huge coffin made of ice lying above the altar, shining with crystal-like brilliance, and emitting a powerful and trembling aura at the same time. That breath made Xiu Yi's whole body tremble, and he felt the domain-like power in his body resonate strangely with the crystal coffin at this moment.

That is……

"That's the Coffin of Immortality." Isado answered Xiuyi's question in a low voice.

really.

But why does the energy in my body respond to the coffin of immortality?

The coffin of immortality moved slowly over the temple, flew away from the altar, and landed on a huge stone platform that had been prepared in front of the altar.

The coffin of immortality slowly opened.

A beautiful woman in a snow-white robe, with bare feet, stepped out of the coffin.

Her eyes that were as bright as stars paused for a moment on Hugh Iglesel's body, and then the starlight in her eyes flourished.

Slowly raised her verdant right hand, and tapped her slender fingers on the foreheads of Xiuyi and Isado.

A cold voice spewed out and spread throughout the hall: "The two of you stay, and the others retreat."
