Chapter 252: Chapter 219: The Priest Enshrouded in Holy Light
In the end, both men succumbed to the tyranny of the black woman.
Forcibly imagining themselves as women, inside and out...
"Eh?"
The bearded man and the curly-haired man exchanged shocked glances.
They felt a bit lighter the moment they had that thought?
Damn!
What kind of freaky forest is this, with gender discrimination to boot?!
The two began to incessantly fantasize about being women, and in less than five minutes, they shook off that suffocating feeling.
How incredible was that?
"Bearded Bro, are you okay?"
"Seems like it, I imagined myself as a housewife."
"I’m good too, I imagined myself as a woman pregnant for ten months, and now I’ve escaped the predicament and even feel more relaxed than at the start! Bleh~" After saying that, the curly-haired man even had a bout of morning sickness.
Everyone:...
I mean.
How does a big guy like you come up with a pregnancy sensation, and isn’t that morning sickness a bit too realistic?
"Jiang Xiao, Bro, they’re okay now, let’s continue our journey, we’re about to pass through the forest."
"Daddy, let’s go!"
Mu Xitang clung to Jiang Xiao like a koala, refusing to let go.
The black woman shared her speculations with Jiang Xiao, though Jiang Spirit might not have needed them.
The driver probably ran away in panic because of the "side effects" Nikka Forest had on males.
And as for why he didn’t inform them, it’s highly likely he forgot.
After all, he was in a hurry to go home and celebrate winning five thousand Gold Coins.
It might also be because the forest’s suppression of "males" was no secret.
So the driver didn’t bother to explain to Jiang Xiao and the others.
Most likely it was the latter, the driver assumed Jiang Xiao and the others knew.
...
The outer world’s commentary was all mocking this "male over female" forest.
Meanwhile, the high-ranking officials of Lighthouse, Kimchi, and Sakura nations had convened a meeting.
"We of the Lighthouse Empire have already used our heads-up opportunity, so now, about the forest’s negative effects and solutions, let’s leave it to Kimchi to pass on, that’s okay, right?"
"Ah-seo, of course, it’s okay simida!"
"By the way, I should mention to you, they’ve already quietly taken a significant lead on us!"
Kimchi:...
Sakura:...
Big brother, you finally realize the gravity of the situation early in the damn morning?!
Do you even know what "quietly" means?
They’ve steadily climbed to this position in full view of the whole world!
Seeing both nations fall silent on the big screen, Old Deng spoke up again to remind (and admonish) them.
"But what I hope you understand is that they’re no longer the same place that welcomed friends from afar with open arms, their attitude is now rigid! I’m so friggin@#¥! So, if you want to negotiate with them, you might as well give up on that thought."
Realizing his lapse, Old Deng quickly added,
"Of course! With my iron-blooded character, Old Deng, I certainly wouldn’t bow to them!"
Sakura:...
Kimchi:...
Stop pretending, you’ve definitely already tried to hold secret negotiations behind their backs, and the results weren’t great, right?
Back in the day, they might have believed such bluff from you playing big brother.
The only reason they could guess that Old Deng had already made contact was because Kimchi and Sakura had both tried as well.
Of course.
The results, as expected, were all rebuffed.
Even Sakura’s groveling apologies bending over to 180 degrees were of no use.
The main problem now is that they just don’t want to pay any attention to them.
Right, no pretenses anymore, they’ve laid their cards out on the table.
Now they don’t have anything of value that would catch their eye.
Negotiations were undoubtedly off the table.
Unless they were willing to give away concessions one-sidedly, then perhaps they could get a chance to discuss...
"Don’t worry, don’t worry, we still have Little Ya, the talent of this young lady is obviously very strong, we just wait for her to pass through, with her, they’ll surely not underestimate us!"
Regarding Old Deng’s ramblings, Sakura gave neither acknowledgment nor denial.
Our Little Ya being amazing doesn’t have a damn thing to do with you Lighthouse people. You really know how to pat yourselves on the back.
While the three nations were bickering amongst themselves, Jiang Xiao had already reached the outer area of the forest.
"Look, isn’t that our destination?"
Through gaps between branches, everyone could barely make out the silhouette of a cathedral.
Wow.
Bearded man and his two companions initially thought there would be more strange challenges after the forest.
If not ninety-nine difficulties, at least they should expect to pass five levels and slay six generals before seeing the cathedral, right?
But who knew, the Romia Cathedral was just plainly situated at the forest’s edge, seemingly unafraid of direct attacks?
However, considering how the locals venerated the cathedral,
Priests probably thought there was no need for any protection here.
As they stepped out of the forest, the full facade of the grand cathedral came into view.
So big!
Calling it a cathedral was an understatement; it might cover as much ground as some huge stadiums.
The huge sign "Romia Cathedral" was suspended high up on the topmost part of the building.
"Bro? Shall we go for a direct assault or..."
Jiang Xiao glanced over and noticed the bearded man had shouldered an RPG rocket launcher, and he couldn’t help but scold,
"Give it up, readying the cannon now? Try being a decent person!"
"Oh."
The bearded man, cheeks flushing red, lowered the rocket launcher.
Muttering to himself how Jiang Xiao might be a bit crazy, but he was a man of good character.
He admitted he hadn’t thought things through; after all, there were still staff working inside Romia Cathedral.
How many innocent lives would be harmed by this blast of my own?
The trio known as the Seeds of Grudge exchanged glances, not helping but giving Jiang Xiao a thumbs-up in their hearts.
No wonder he’s called ’the Spirit’ by Dragon Country, not only for his formidable strength but also for not indulging in the wanton killing of the innocent.
People like him, it’s genuinely difficult not to be tears.
Seeing the bearded man put down the cannon, Jiang Xiao nodded this time and continued.
"You take your weapon and ammo round the back, go for his butt; Black Sister and Curly, you two flank him, Xi Tang and I will hit him from the middle. And hey! Don’t just prop your weapons up so early, what if you miss the mark or shoot astray? Do you know how much ammo will be wasted?"
"Everyone, get up close and personal! We aim for maximum damage! Make every shot count!"
"First we’ll disperse to all four sides, then you watch for my signal. When I give the order, we’ll attack all at once, 360-degree firepower with no blind spots, putting him in a situation where he’s besieged on all sides. No matter how much that Priest struggles, it’ll be no good."
"We’re going to resolve this once and for all, and send this so-called Cathedral to the afterlife as well!"
By the end, Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but admire his own brilliant courage, letting out a "hehehe" strange laugh.
Everyone: ???
The bearded guy swallowed hard.
"Jiang Xiao bro, inside, there seem to be people still at work, they might be innocent."
Jiang Xiao: ୧(๑•̌~•̑) "What’s that got to do with me? Are the people working inside your friends?"
"No."
"Do you know them?"
"I don’t know them..."
"Well, that’s settled then! Hurry up and move out, Major General Mu Xitang will take full command of this operation!"
"Yay! I’m so happy! No, cough!"
Wait, realizing she was out of character, Mu Xitang immediately switched to a serious face.
"Cough, what I mean is, this mission only allows for success, not failure! Shout out our slogan!"
Three people: ....
Alright, what else can be done?
Of course, it’s to satisfy her...
The bearded guy o(´^`)o: "A loud boom in the sky!"
Curly (ノ`⊿´)ノ: "Xi Tang shining bright on stage!"
Black Sister (*`д´): "Reigning over the seas for years!"
Curly (乂`д´): "The Sect Hierarch, beauty and voice so sweet!"
In unison: "First came Xi Tang, then came heaven, a will to outmatch immortals across all eternity!"
Eh~
Although it wasn’t their first time, shouting such an embarrassing slogan still made their faces turn red.
Just thinking about broadcasting it in front of the whole world made them almost dig themselves a three-room apartment out of embarrassment.
Before departing, Mu Xitang called a meeting of her three men.
"Everyone come over, let’s discuss the signal! Like if I throw the first grenade to signify ’launch the full assault’."
"Then, follow my pistol for the specific details of the action, 3—2—1 means retreat, 1—2—3 means advance, 1—3 means..."
Wow?
Has the missing brain of Sect Hierarch Xi Tang grown back?
Coming up with this ’command by gunshots’ idea looks indeed skillful.
The little pink-haired one finally finished babbling the details.
"gogogo! Let’s move out, you’ve got ten minutes, everyone get into position!"
"Yes Sir!" x3
The three men all but carried away most of the weapons, fearing they might run into trouble, Mu Xitang kindly shared many of her own weapons with them.
She kept only a few bombs for herself, along with two Gold Coin Desert Eagles and a heavy mini-gun, the kind that fires six thousand rounds a minute.
....
Gasping for breath, Mu Xitang hugged the machine gun that was bigger than her own body tight to the ground.
It wasn’t that she was nervous, she was purely too excited.
Even men couldn’t handle such a big toy, let alone a little girl like her, with palms all sweaty!
"Dad, isn’t this too far? I want to move closer too."
The little pink-haired "commander-in-chief" humbly applied to Jiang Xiao to move the position forward.
"Isn’t it safer to stay further away?"
Jiang Xiao obviously didn’t want Mu Xitang to encounter any mishaps.
"But, but the bearded trio is about to hit the Cathedral walls! I’m over a hundred meters away."
At that moment, the eyes of the bearded trio were wide.
Just now when Jiang Xiao had indicated their positions, it felt like they were far from the Cathedral.
But upon getting closer, they realized they were only about thirty meters away from the walls!
Alright, alright, alright...
You really don’t see us as people, huh!
Luckily, there were some pillars and statues nearby for cover, otherwise they’d have probably been exposed.
....
Inside Romia Cathedral by now.
The Priest, radiating wisps of holy light, was leading a total of 88 nuns of various kinds in prayer.
It seemed he was completely unaware of the danger approaching from outside.
A maid-type nun knelt beside the Priest and whispered to him.
"Father, the female mayor of Lunte City wants to invite us to preside over a meeting on Saturday, offering fifty million Gold Coins, we..."
"No need for further words."
The face of the Priest, glowing with sanctity, interrupted her, unwilling even to open his eyes, and went on.
"Vanity and wealth are but fleeting clouds. We won’t go. With the true Lord in our hearts, we surpass mountains of gold and silver."
And his words also elicited the endorsement of the other nuns present, who all agreed that in this world, the Father was the unique king.
"Do not let the vulgar scent of worldly wealth taint our Father."
"My Father’s realm is such that it shames us, like a towering mountain that we can only look up to."
"Not to mention Lunte City, even if you look at the other big cities around, our Father is the most formidable!"
"Hmph! Lunte City? With my Father’s strength, even if you look across the nine continents, that also is an unparalleled existence!"
Hearing the nuns praise him like this, the Priest’s face grew even more righteous and he couldn’t help but say humbly.
"My Believers, you needn’t praise me so. No one dares to claim they are the strongest. I can only say that in Lunte City, in Romia Cathedral, under the protection of Nikasen Forest, nothing can harm us."
"The Lord and God say, ’I am Alpha, I am Omega.’ I shall fulfill God’s will, as promised in the life of Christ Jesus, Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ, Amen."
"Amen..."
All the nuns also bowed their heads, quietly listening to the Father’s teaching.
