Chapter 461 Do you need help?
The restrained girl finally got rid of the knight's control and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath like a broken bellows. Lilith felt that the other white-robed girls around her retreated a little again, as if they all wanted to stay away from her.
“Blasphemer!” The old god who led the group frowned, and deep wrinkles immediately appeared between their brows, like tree roots entwined on them. The look in her eyes as she stared at Lilith was like a knife. “What do you think this place is?!”
But Lilith had no time to retort. She stared at the person on the ground. The girl had raised her head now. In the swaying lights around her, Lilith could clearly see the familiar yet unfamiliar face.
"...Angie?"
Lilith called softly amidst the chaos.
After hearing Lilith's voice, the girl in white robe on the ground, who was originally breathing loudly without any image, was suddenly strangled in her throat, and she looked up suddenly.
In this chaos, the two of them suddenly made eye contact, with the same disbelief in their eyes.
The color faded from An Qi's face, her lips trembled slightly, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them flow. She clenched the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, squeezing them so hard that her knuckles turned white.
How could she be so thin? Lilith looked at Anqi's sunken cheeks in panic. She was kneeling on the ground. There seemed to be only a thin layer of clothes under her pure white robe. It was empty, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
What frightened Lilith even more was not just this.
In her memory, the girl on the ground was always bright and beautiful. Her hair was originally smooth and shiny, like a piece of silk, and she would put it into different beautiful buns in different classes. However, at this moment, the long hair was gone, and the part on her head was uneven, as if it was randomly shaved with a razor, and the scalp could even be vaguely seen in some places.
"Your hair..." Lilith's voice trembled unconsciously. She was shocked by Anqi's embarrassment and was incoherent. "Who did it, who did it..."
There was a rumbling sound in her head, and she didn't know which was more heartbroken or angry. She walked towards An Qi, wanting to help the girl who had fallen into a daze.
"Who are you?!" The old god saw that the two knew each other and shouted. Along with these words, there was a sound of weapons being unsheathed beside them. The Knights of Light drew their swords, and the atmosphere was tense!
"Clang!" The black-armored knight who was responsible for escorting Lilith also drew his sword.
"They are Her Highness Catherine's people, responsible for the mission of this trip!" The black-armored knight refused to give in. "Do you have the right to ask?"
"...Then do what you have to do." The old god is certainly not qualified to manage the gods. She pointed at An Qi on the ground and said, "This is the god who made the mistake—"
"What did she do wrong that you want to humiliate her like this?" A knight of light stood in front of Lilith, blocking her steps towards Angel. Lilith asked, trying to keep her voice steady.
No matter when or where, shaving one's hair is an extremely humiliating and painful punishment, especially for Anqi. That's Anqi! She loves beauty so much... Lilith felt her heart tighten.
"She was seduced by the devil and spread anxiety and fear to the young God!" The old God said sharply, signaling the Knight of Light to drag the girl up from the ground. "Such blasphemous behavior should be severely punished. She needs to continue to be baptized by the Holy Light to save her filthy heart."
An Qi's fierce resistance seemed to disappear the moment she saw Lilith. Why, why did it have to be her? She was seen at her ugliest and most unbearable appearance by Lilith. The words of the old god were buzzing in her mind, but she could no longer listen. She lowered her head and the silver thread slipped down.
"Mind your own business, Lilith."
Lucas always had some animal-like instincts of seeking profit and avoiding harm. Now that he saw Lilith approaching and provoking trouble despite his obstruction, he was almost desperate. How dare she use magic here!
"Angel, do you need help?" Lilith's vision was blocked, but her voice could not be blocked. She looked straight into the eyes of the Knight of Light who was blocking her way, and asked in a shocking voice.
Angel's limp figure trembled, and the next moment she was picked up by two knights of light and dragged towards the lantern goddess.
A huge despair rose in An Qi's heart, but she didn't know why she couldn't open her mouth to call for help in front of Lilith...
Lilith did not hear Angel's response. More and more people gathered in the corridor, and the noise became louder. She turned around and told Lucas, who kept trying to dissuade her, to shut up. Through the light reflected from overhead, she saw that the lights in front began to move, and the human wall seemed to begin to loosen. The Knights of Light began to command everyone gathered here to disperse, including the group of girls that Angel had mixed into before. The corridor became quiet.
Lilith was silent for a moment, then suddenly elbowed the Knight of Light in front of her and asked again in a loud voice -
"Angie, do you need help?!"
The old goddess who was walking in front and leading the way had a bad feeling in her heart. She turned around and wanted to ask the Knight of Light to walk faster.
"save……"
A low whimper was heard in the wind, and the old god was startled. She secretly said that it was not good, and wanted to signal the Knight of Light to block her mouth again, but it was too late -
"Save me!" Angel plucked up her courage, put aside her ridiculous and pitiful self-esteem, turned her head and cried loudly towards Lilith!
"boom--!"
A huge noise suddenly exploded in the courtyard of the Temple of Light. King George, who had just stepped out of the temple, and the people around him were startled by the noise. Under the cover of the knight, he looked up and saw a dazzling green light rising into the sky in the far east, which turned half of the temple buildings green.
What is that?! King George was horrified, and the bishops and priests around him could not give an answer.
In the dark corner near him, Ian also saw the same scene. He no longer cared about anything else and ran towards the place where the green light was!
The holy temple garden was in a mess at the moment. Angel collapsed on the ground and suddenly felt someone grab her wrist and pull her up forcefully. She shivered as if in response to the stress. The latter sensed her nervousness and spoke immediately.
"Don't be afraid..." Lilith's voice was bitter. She touched not only Angel's wrist, but also the cold, heavy iron ring on her wrist, the magic-suppressing ring that restricted her mental power.
"I'll take you home."
