There were no pedestrians on the street.
The huge lightning scared away many onlookers who were watching the strange celestial phenomenon from the window.
However, Lilith and the other two did not move, staring at the battle in the sky.
The super ghost ship, which appeared intermittently, had several masts broken, and its already old hull became even more dilapidated.
However, the ghost ship showed no signs of escaping.
The clouds churned.
The hull of the ghost ship trembled violently.
Thunder exploded in the sky, and heavy rain poured down.
The intense sunlight shone above the dark clouds.
On the ship, a large number of water creatures, ghosts, and skeletons were loading ammunition and pulling ropes.
The ghost captain, wearing a black skull captain's hat and a huge fish hook instead of one hand, held a royal command sword and fought fiercely with the four storm church high priests in the sky.
His face was covered with octopus-like tentacles, and every time he swung his sword, huge terrifying tentacles would emerge from the dark clouds.
The thick lightning struck the tentacles, and the exploding tentacles turned into pouring rain.
Suddenly, the scorching sun burst into intense light.
The main sail of the ghost ship, which was painted with a skull flag, instantly burned, and many resentful spirits turned into ashes.
"The Eternal Sun God Sect, do you want to be my enemy too?"
King Ternus of the Seven Seas roared, his voice sharp as if a million undead were roaring together.
The tall white bishop in a platinum priest's robe, with golden-red pupils, had a blazing sun flame behind him, shining brightly.
"Ternus, this is Delan Becca. If you want to leave, I won't stop you."
Upon hearing the words of the Pope of the Eternal Sun God Sect, Ternus looked ferocious, and the intense black smoke around him gathered into the dark clouds like a tide.
On the ground, countless steaming mist rose to the sky like rain.
That was not mist, but the millions of souls accumulated by Delan Becca.
In the sky, Ternus absorbed a large number of souls like a whale sucking water.
He tilted his head, and the ghost ship's broken hull was replenished by the souls, becoming strong again.
Ternus did not insist on staying, and with a fierce swing of his royal command sword, his crimson single eye narrowed slightly as he coldly snorted, "Set sail!"
Countless undead creatures wrapped in black mist on the ghost ship hurriedly raised the sails.
King Ternus adjusted his captain's hat and sneered, "I'll play with you another day. If I can't win at sea, I'll come back to Delan Becca. I can always have fun with five million civilians."
As he spoke, he suddenly waved his command sword.
The ghost ship instantly cut through the heavy dark clouds, breaking through the vast sea of clouds, and the intense sunlight instantly bathed the earth, casting a fiery red glow on the Yana Iron Bridge.
The rain stopped, and a rainbow hung over the sky of Delan Becca.
"The battle is over."
Lilith looked at the dark clouds in the sky that seemed to be split by a heavy sword, and she breathed a sigh of relief. "That madman Ternus is gone."
Su Li didn't understand. "Why didn't we keep him?"
"This is Delan Becca. It's hard not to cause a commotion when trying to kill an angel. I don't know how many innocent people would die then."
Lilith explained.
Harrington said, "The rain has stopped. Let's go quickly."
As the battle ended, the ordinary people of Delan Becca did not know that they had just experienced a life-and-death struggle. Many pedestrians returned to the streets to work for their livelihoods.
In the carriage, Lilith and the others felt heavy in their hearts.
The battle between Ternus's ghost ship and the two major churches of Delan Becca seemed like a storm in a teacup, but in reality, there were hidden dangers in the transcendent world behind Delan Becca.
After Harrington became an extraordinary person from an ordinary person, he gradually saw the magnificent side of the world.
He realized how much of a frog in the well he had been as an ordinary person. He mistook such a terrifying battle as a sudden abnormal weather and failed to perceive the danger behind it.
The carriage moved on.
Passing through the Polos District where the Storm Church was located, they finally arrived at the headquarters of the Black Night Church, Adrian.
It was now six o'clock in the evening, and gas lamps gradually lit up, illuminating the quiet and peaceful Adrian.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the church. Su Li looked up at the magnificent church built with black rocks sent from Salgado from afar, feeling a sense of tranquility and solemnity spreading through his heart.
This was a magnificent building with six small bell towers guarding a large bell tower.
The scale of the church was grand, capable of accommodating tens of thousands of people for mass at the same time. Made of black rocks, the total area was 11,700 square meters. The church was shaped like a crescent moon, with tall towers rising from low to high, resembling a black crown. (Note 1)
The main dome reached a height of 138 meters, and the large red spherical bell had intricate patterns. Every time it struck the hour, the pleasant sound of the bell could cover the entire Adrian area, symbolizing the glory of the goddess.For centuries, the world's most outstanding artists have contributed their works to the Adrian Cathedral.
Among them, the goddess statue, painstakingly crafted by masters Madec and Bonilla, is housed in the main hall of the Adrian Cathedral. It highlights the goddess's grandeur and gentleness, giving anyone who lays eyes on it a sense of peace and reverence.
After dismounting the carriage, Lilith and Su Li waved goodbye to their new reader and knocked on the church's grand doors.
An elderly priest opened the heavy doors, and Lilith respectfully handed over an introduction letter personally written by the bishop.
"We come from the Serede Diocese, serving under Lord Mourinho."
Lilith tapped her chest four times, making a devout gesture of praising the goddess.
Mourinho himself came from Adrian, once serving as the dean of the Adrian Monastery. The old priest, upon reading the letter, immediately responded with reverence and a gentle smile:
"On behalf of Adrian, I welcome the arrival of the two Night Watchers. The Pope has been waiting for a while, please follow me."
Hearing the old priest's words, Lilith and Su Li smiled and stepped into the majestic black cathedral.
Inside the cathedral, countless lamps burned quietly like stars in the sky.
The scent of moon-sleeping flowers was everywhere, giving a sense of elegant tranquility.
Passing through the grand bishop's hall, many priests walked in the cloisters, not curious about the arrival of the two in black hats.
As the Battle of the Extraordinary approached, all major dioceses had sent Night Watchers to stay at the headquarters. Su Li and Lilith were just two of them.
However, while many people came, only a few were granted a private audience with the Pope.
After all, there was only one disciple of the land-walking goddess, Mourinho, the former dean of the monastery.
And he was one of only two dual-path Night Watchers in the world, worthy of a personal visit from the Pope.
After passing through the complex layers of cloisters, Lilith, led by the old priest, entered the solemn inner court.
They met a kind old man wearing a black crown and simple robes.
Othellad Richardson's black eyes reflected the bright lights like stars. The wise elder looked at Su Li gently and asked softly:
"Are you Su Li?"
