Chapter 913 - 914: Entering the Church Nation

Another chapter after 30m.

---

At the border between Night Wish City and the Church Nation, after slowly walking out of the small forest, a slender figure gradually raised her head to gaze into the distance. As the girl lifted her head, the face beneath her hood was fully revealed under the sunlight. It was an ordinary face, not considered beautiful, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it was a little ugly.

The only thing that attracted the eyes was that pair of eyes, as beautiful and dazzling as rubies, and the long, thick eyelashes that were like two brushes.

The brown-haired girl had a deep gaze, her eyes filled with calmness, quietly looking into the distance like this.

This girl was naturally Miss Yumo, who had just left the White Crystal Castle.

After learning about the current strange situation in the Church Nation from her daughter, Yumo decided to go to the Church Nation to investigate. Currently on the Ancita continent, the demon and human forces were in a delicate balance, and her children could barely coexist peacefully with Mengxi.

Such a good situation, Yumo was reluctant to see it destroyed.

Therefore, Yumo came up with a plan to infiltrate the Church Nation and seek communication with Mengxi.

Since it was infiltration, not only did she need to conceal her aura, but changing her appearance was also essential.

After learning from the past few lessons, this time Yumo planned to completely disguise herself as an ordinary, unremarkable passerby! This way, she shouldn’t attract everyone’s attention like the previous few times!

After using the artifact Deception Veil to disguise herself as an ordinary village girl, Yumo arrived at the border.

Then, she had to start thinking about another difficult problem.

"How should I sneak in?"

Gazing at the heavily guarded border fortress in the distance, Yumo muttered in puzzlement. First of all, it had to be admitted that the Church Nation’s border inspection was indeed very strict, with dozens of various types of security magic devices, dozens of high-level detection mages, and a large number of holy knight squads responsible for guarding.

However, with Yumo’s strength, it wasn’t difficult to fool these ordinary people by transforming into blood butterflies. As long as she could sneak in from a nearby area with weak defenses, the key was...

Eyes slightly narrowed, the invisible barrier between heaven and earth was clearly revealed in Yumo’s eyes.

"Is this the protective domain at the Church Nation’s border that Yuan’er mentioned - the ’Silver Moon Realm’?"

Indeed, a trace of holy power belonging to Mengxi could be sensed from it. The surging, rich holy power was undoubtedly very sensitive to the Shadow Power. As long as any demon came into contact with this barrier, they would likely be immediately detected by the Church Nation. And... since it was mixed with Mengxi’s holy magic, it was probably even more sensitive to my aura.

Directly transforming into blood butterflies and passing through would carry a considerable risk of exposure.

Yumo carefully analyzed to herself and thoughtfully gazed at the heavily guarded checkpoint in the distance.

To pass through this carefully set up protective domain by the Church Nation, it was still most suitable to go through this checkpoint.

Although the Silver Moon Realm magic was powerful, it had a fatal flaw. It was just like a typhoon. The outer part was turbulent and strong, but the center was calm and very fragile. And the "eye of the typhoon" of the Silver Moon Realm was the fortress before her eyes. It was precisely for this reason that the Church Nation deployed a large number of troops to concentrate here.

"Hmm, how exactly should I pass through?"

Raising her hand to her chin, Yumo tilted her head, trying hard to think.

The people of the Church Nation must be well aware that there was no magic protection at the eye of the typhoon.

Since that was the case, they had probably also arranged some special inspection equipment that she didn’t know about. If she went through the normal procedures, it would likely still be difficult to escape the fate of being discovered.

And just as Yumo was thinking, a voice with a hint of impatience suddenly entered Yumo’s ears.

"What are you thinking about? Just create an explosion, take care of everyone, and then charge through, isn’t that good?"

Hearing the words coming from behind her, Yumo frowned, slowly turned her head, and looked at the star-eyed girl who was also wearing a black robe like herself, leaning against a tree trunk, with a slightly reproachful meaning.

"Yue, can you not always come up with such violent ideas? Isn’t it good to be more harmonious?"

"With humans? It’s a bit difficult..."

After glancing at the distant fortress with eyes that looked like she was looking at garbage, Yue said disdainfully:

"It’s fine if you don’t want to be violent. I’ll just go over and whip them half to death. They’re a bunch of weaklings, the strongest is only a seventh-level. A bunch of trash."

"You... this is still violence, Sigh."

Faced with Yue, who was slightly lacking in common sense and loved to whip people, Yumo could only helplessly raise her hand to her forehead.

"Wouldn’t directly taking action attract more attention? I want to secretly infiltrate the Church Nation, not charge in openly, okay? Doing that would cause chaos."

"Tsk..."

Seeing that she couldn’t whip people happily, Yue muttered somewhat displeased.

Faced with a group of people with disgusting holy magic, Yue’s desire to whip them was extremely strong.

But, Yumo still strongly expressed her refusal:

"In any case, we can’t act recklessly."

"The people of the Church Nation are already enemies, so why can’t we act recklessly?"

"Yue, these things haven’t been concluded yet. Maybe Mengxi doesn’t know about the actions of her subordinates? Those people from the Church Nation might be deceiving their superiors, right? If that’s really the case, and we destroy their border fortress now, how will I explain it to Mengxi later?"

Apparently, from the bottom of her heart, Yumo still didn’t believe that the actions of the Church Nation’s people were ordered by Mengxi.

"Hmph, whatever you say, Baka Master."

Yue turned her head away in displeasure.

"Then what should you do? Not charging in, but going through security? Wouldn’t that make it easier to be discovered?"

"Hmm, yeah, what should we do?"

Yumo gazed into the distance, thinking hard.

However, at this moment, the noisy and hurried sound of horse hooves suddenly entered Yumo and Yue’s ears. If it was just the sound of horse hooves, Yumo wouldn’t have cared much. After all, ahead was an important border checkpoint for entering the Church Nation’s Asumos. Even though the frequency of exchanges between the Church Nation and Night Wish City had greatly decreased, there were still many horse carriages entering and exiting the checkpoint every day.

It’s just that Yumo quickly frowned because the sound of horse hooves seemed to be getting closer and closer?

"Huh? Why are they running towards me?"

Yumo glanced to the side in puzzlement.

Then, several figures riding on tall horses, wearing black cloaks, and with their faces covered, suddenly appeared in Yumo’s field of vision and rapidly approached her. Faced with the unknown group of human carriages, Yumo originally wanted to politely wave and greet them.

Unfortunately, the other party had no intention of being polite.

Before the words of greeting could be spoken, a long rope rapidly enlarged in Yumo’s eyes, and without a word, the girl was tied up.

And accompanying the rope’s attack was the excited shout of the black-robed man:

"We caught another big fish!! This time we can definitely sell her for a good price!! Brothers, let’s hurry and withdraw!! Otherwise, the people from Night Wish City will catch up!!"

"Huh?!"

Amidst Yumo’s startled exclamation, the girl’s feet suddenly left the ground, and she was picked up by the black-robed man like prey. They quickly rushed towards the border checkpoint... and very smoothly, without going through any inspections, passed through the heavily guarded checkpoint and quickly disappeared on the horizon, leaving Yue alone, dumbfounded in the wind.

Ah, this?

What the hell is going on???

…

At the same time, in the Holy City - Vinati, in the magnificent but empty hall, a silver-haired girl with extraordinary appearance, as if a goddess had descended to the mortal world, was wearing a pure white gauze dress, quietly leaning on that luxurious and elegant throne made of pure crystal stone and gold. The silver-haired girl had her eyes closed like this, as if she had fallen into a deep slumber.

The holy hymns coming from the distance, the calls of the divine birds, the shouts of the troops training, etc., could not disturb the girl.

The girl seemed to have entered her own world, completely isolated from the outside.

The white divine birds, even if they landed on the girl’s shoulders, the girl had no reaction. After a long time, the silver-haired girl’s body seemed to be treated as a statue, and dozens of white divine birds landed on her body like this, enjoying the gentle holy magic emanating from the girl’s body.

And just as the girl was almost isolated from the world, a faint but pale blue light quietly bloomed in the great hall.

And with the appearance of the blue light, the girl’s consciousness returned to her body after a long absence, and she slowly opened her eyes, revealing those beautiful but sorrowful pale purple eyes.

Her gaze shifted slightly downward, and the girl’s eyes quickly locked onto her left hand. No, to be precise, it was locked on the ring on her middle finger, that ring rippling with a comfortable blue light.

"Sister, you’ve finally... come?"
