Chapter 310: Chapter 314: Receiving Flowers

Lancelot couldn’t help but be utterly shocked; the fate of the faithless was too grim. He should never die, at least not in this universe.

“If you haven’t decided which goddess to believe in, there’s no need to worry too much.” Seeing Lancelot’s uneasy expression, Alamir spoke to comfort him, “It’s enough to have mentioned the name of a goddess at any time. Have you ever expressed gratitude to the Goddess of Luck, Tamora, during your lucky moments? Or, having spent time with the Dwarves, have you occasionally said things like ‘By Moradin’s beard’? These acts won’t get you into heaven, but they are enough to get a Divine Envoy to ‘fish’ you out of the Stygian River. You will be deemed a nominal believer and reincarnated, provided, of course, that you’ve committed no sins that merit damnation in Barto Hell...”

“Well, I can still manage that,” Lancelot shrugged. “Had no idea there were so many secrets about the soul...”

“The weakness of the soul lies in its susceptibility to temptation,” the Elf Priest said with a helpless shake of her head. “The fiends of the lower realms have many ways to benefit from a fallen soul, and causing a soul to fall is so easy it’s sometimes beyond even the demons’ understanding.”

Alamir’s words left everyone in silence; Lancelot shook his head and began performing a spell, preparing to summon vines to dig a tunnel through the sea of flowers.

“Brother Lancelot, wait...” Little Isha suddenly tugged at his arm. “Can I try something first?”

“What do you want to try?” Lancelot felt a bit puzzled. The situation didn’t seem to call for vampire powers.

“I... I want to try to control those flowers,” the little girl’s words caused everyone to be taken aback. She was a vampire, not a druid. How could she possibly control these plants?

Unless...@@@@

Seeing this, Lancelot frowned. This outcome had exceeded his expectations, but it would be a pity to end here. He gently placed his hand on Isabelle’s shoulder, carefully channeling a stream of True Yuan into her body.

The red light in the vampire girl’s hand immediately brightened, like throwing a bundle of dry leaves into a dying fire, even the range of the red light seemed to increase.

Isabelle’s complexion turned rosy. The warm current from her brother’s hand on her shoulder felt like a hot water bottle in the cold winter, making her feel very comfortable. Her body, which had almost reached its limit, suddenly regained strength, allowing her to continue trying to control more Demon Palace roses.

Lancelot was careful not to increase the speed of the True Yuan flowing into the young girl’s body. Although her expression did not show any discomfort, Lancelot, while feeding the True Yuan, also sensed the state of the meridians inside Isabelle. As a mortal (compared to a Spiritual Cultivator), Isabelle’s meridians were very delicate. If he increased the speed slightly, he might blow her up into pieces on the spot, and it was uncertain if she could survive in her vampire mist form.

In this manner, the young vampire acted like a lantern and Lancelot like the oil tank behind it, and together they slowly swept through the entire sea of flowers, bringing all the Demon Palace roses under Isabelle’s control. Thousands of bouquets floated above the young girl’s head, like a cloud made of flowers or a dark red school of fish in the ocean, beautifully dreamlike.

But those present held no illusions about the nature of these beautiful flowers, as the ground before them was covered with white bones and rotting flesh, reminiscent of the horrific mass grave they had seen at Oasis Fort. These bones were the very soil in which the Demon Palace roses grew.

Isabelle was only able to control so many Demon Palace roses with Lancelot’s support. The moment Lancelot stopped channeling True Yuan into her body, these bloodthirsty plants would immediately go out of control and attack everyone present.

Fortunately, Lancelot had already thought of a way to deal with this. He removed a Dimensional Bag from his waist, which had already been emptied and its contents transferred to another Dimensional Bag. He then guided Isabelle to gather all the roses into the Dimensional Bag until it was completely full.
