Chapter 185 Rally?

"heresy!!"

This sudden shout was like a thunderclap ripped through the sky, instantly resounding among the black-robed crowd.

In an instant, the people who had been tightly huddled together seemed to be separated by an invisible force, like a surging wave receding to both sides, making way for a passage. And standing in the center of this passage was the very person who had just shouted.

This person's attire was quite unusual compared to the other men in black robes around him.

The black robe he wore was clearly meticulously crafted, its material and cut revealing its exceptional quality. The bottom of the black robe was embroidered with dense, intricate patterns that intertwined and formed a mysterious and magnificent design.

If you look closely, you can see that the patterns shimmer with a faint silver light, as if they were embroidered stitch by stitch with fine silver threads.

Moreover, even the hood covering his head was equally impressive.

Its edges were embroidered with exquisite patterns in gold thread, which shone brightly in the light, making the entire hood resemble a dazzling crown.

Coupled with his deliberately elegant movements and the effort to puff out his chest to highlight his noble temperament, one could immediately sense the sense of grandeur and nobility he exuded.

"What are you heretics doing here?!"

The man walked up to the crowd, his voice becoming even louder and carrying an interrogative tone.

"This place? Is this your territory?"

Ling Yan raised an eyebrow, her words carrying a hint of disdain.

After all, he was an official. He had read the information before he came. The original owner of this land had gone bankrupt, and the land had not been sold at auction. For the time being, it still belonged to the government.

To put it another way, he could even say he came to expel those who illegally occupied the factory.

Thinking of this, Ling Yan felt even more justified. He even touched his pocket and found his work ID inside, which put his mind at ease.

"Of course! This is the place we have chosen for the coming of our great Lord!"

The hooded man's words seemed to be getting increasingly insane.

"For my Lord!!"

"For the great Lord!!"

"For the great Lord!"

"For my Lord!!"

"..."

The group of men in black robes were completely covered from head to toe, with only their eyes, which gleamed with a mysterious light, visible.

When they heard the words "For our great Lord," it was as if an invisible force had pressed a switch, and the whole scene changed dramatically in an instant.

The square, which was originally so quiet that only the voice of a man in black robes could be heard, suddenly became noisy.

In an instant, all the men in black robes seemed to be summoned by some powerful force, and they all raised their right hands high in unison. Their right hands were clenched into fists, stretching upwards with great power, as if trying to touch something in the sky.

Some people were so excited that their voices cracked, but this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the others in the slightest.

Their shouts rose and fell, intertwining to form a deafening wave of sound. Their fervent state was truly astounding.

Surrounded by these black-robed figures, Lin Xiyue and the others felt a chill of fear creep into their hearts as they witnessed the scene before them. They sensed the madness and obsession of these black-robed men; their unwavering faith was truly terrifying.

Fortunately, just in case, only he and Lin Xiyue were the first to enter; the others stayed outside to provide support and cordon off the area to prevent innocent civilians from entering.

"Cough cough cough. Quiet!"

The leader of the black-robed men looked around with satisfaction at the frenzied scene, then coughed twice with feigned composure, raised his hands and pressed them down to signal everyone to be quiet.

The men in black robes were very obedient and fell silent after he spoke. Judging from this action alone, it could be said that only someone who has undergone rigorous training could do this.

"Look at you, isn't this just trespassing into our meeting place? However, seeing your state, I can give you a chance. As long as you convert to my Lord and show a little sincerity, I can reluctantly forgive you!"

After doing all this, the black-robed leader looked at Ling Yan and the others, uttering grand and righteous words.

However, all he said was about wanting money. He was a typical example of someone whose eyes were full of ideas and whose mouth was full of business.

"you……"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yan's temper flared up instantly. He was about to unleash a torrent of profanities on the man when Lin Xiyue suddenly pulled him back, causing him to stop talking abruptly.

He looked at Lin Xiyue with confusion, not understanding why she wouldn't let him do it.

Although there were about a hundred people in this group, they did not show any energy fluctuations at all; they were all ordinary people.

Let alone the people lying in ambush outside, Ling Yan alone took them all down in half an hour. Subduing them would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it? What's there to hesitate about?

"Look over there."

Lin Xiyue realized that Ling Yan was undoubtedly the core of Ling Ye's team in terms of combat strength.

Unfortunately, this guy seemed to have no interest in using his brain. No matter the situation, the only thought that came to his mind was to charge forward recklessly.

Fortunately, despite his recklessness and impulsiveness, Lingyan still knew how to assess the strength gap between himself and his enemy, and did not act blindly.

Furthermore, he possesses extraordinary combat talent, seemingly born with the ability to keenly perceive his surroundings and anticipate potential dangers. This remarkable intuition allows him to always turn the tide in fierce battles and successfully handle various unexpected situations.

Perhaps it is this unique fighting ability that has enabled Lingyan to survive countless life-or-death battles and come this far.

"!!!"

"This is?!!"

Ling Yan received Lin Xiyue's hint and subconsciously followed her gaze.

Then you see that the evil god statue that was originally just a little bit of mental pollution standing in the center of the hall is now filled with an unsettling dark green light.

Moreover, as those streams of light faintly connected with those fanatical worshippers, in just a short while, they too were adorned with some of that light, though it was much dimmer.

It gives people a very dangerous feeling just by looking at it.
