Chapter 273: Chapter 31: Spell Casting

"You... you must have been bought by the Double Rest Sect!" Black Hammer shouted, straining to overpower the Universal Language teacher’s voice, "What they’re best at is just that! Spending money to make people listen to their nonsense."

However, the next moment, he saw Anton remove his woolen cloak and then take off the tunic inside, revealing a gaunt body with several cloth strips tied around his chest.

Then the Universal Language teacher violently tore off the bloodstained strips.

A ghastly and terrible wound, over a dozen centimeters long, was exposed for all to see!

Anton’s movements had been forceful, straining the wound that had just been stitched up not long ago, causing it to seep blood again, but he acted as if he couldn’t feel the pain at all.

The Universal Language teacher’s eyes were bloodshot, and steam billowed from his nostrils, "No, what really pushed me towards the Double Rest Sect was this sword wound. Do you see this injury? This is a ’gift’ from the Silver Moon Church!"

While speaking, he also shoved away an herbalist who had come over to rebandage him, roaring, "No, I want everyone to know now what happens when you become Pisya’s dog!

"That bitch will sweet-talk you until she’s drained you completely and then kick you aside as soon as you’re useless! Yes, that’s what they do, always have! These hypocritical vermin!!!"

Anton’s words were too coarse, startling not only Black Hammer and Priest Jile but even Ireya who was standing by.

She secretly signaled for the maid that had been taking care of the Universal Language teacher to come over and asked her what exactly had happened.

According to the maid, about four days ago, after Anton’s condition stabilized thanks to the Divine Medicine from the Double Rest Sect, his entire demeanor changed.

Gone was his genteel and elegant manner. He lay in bed, silent, just staring with wide eyes, fixated on the wooden beams overhead.

Everyone who brought in meals was frightened by his appearance.

The maid had constantly tried to communicate with Anton, but he never responded to her, to the point where she even wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

Until not long ago, when Anton heard an argument outside his window and suddenly asked the maid what was happening. After hearing the answer, he asked her to find him a stick and struggled to get out of bed.

Ignoring his injuries, he staggered outside.

And then, what had just happened transpired.

Miss Rabbit had listened, but still didn’t understand why the Universal Language teacher had become like this.

If Li Yu were here, he would tell her this phenomenon is usually called ’detox and stomp-back.’

It turns out those who hate the most ferociously are often the same ones who loved the most deeply before.

Clearly, that stab that night had breached Anton’s defenses.

As deeply as the Universal Language teacher had loved the Silver Moon Church before, now he hated it to the bone.

At this moment he even stood against hundreds alone, bare-chested and vigorously swearing at over a hundred of Pisya’s devout followers, seemingly even gaining the upper hand!

Yet considering that he had recently recovered from a serious illness and was still very weak, combined with the cold weather outside, Ireya was afraid he might experience another mishap, so she had the guards forcefully take him back to the castle.

In the end, it took three warriors to subdue Anton, and, until he was dragged away, the Universal Language teacher was still cursing with all his might. His voice echoed in the skies over Green Field, lingering for a long time.

Seeing this loudmouth finally pulled away, Black Hammer let out a sigh of relief and could finally wipe the sweat from his forehead, gearing up to speak again.

However, the next moment, he heard a strange buzzing sound overhead.

Black Hammer looked up to see a grey iron bird with three eyes flying over his head.

The middle eye of the gray bird kept swinging, eerily unsettling.

Black Hammer locked eyes with it for a second, feeling a chill in his hands and feet and a cold shiver down his spine, as if his spirit was being sucked away; so he quickly turned his head.

But soon he saw the second, third... a total of four Three-eyed Divine Birds in the sky.

After Li Yu’s promotion, his expense account was significantly increased, and with the windmill now functioning and providing power, he was able to equip three more drones.

This time they were all released together.

Not just for Black Hammer, for many it was their first time seeing the legendary Three-eyed Divine Birds, with some curious, some fearful, and others even kneeling down to worship on the spot...

Although they did not know what exactly these iron birds were for, both nobles and commoners alike were deeply captivated by this scene, sensing the mystique and power of the Double Rest Sect.

While everyone’s attention was focused on the four drones, a person in the crowd quietly removed their hood and stepped out.

Because Ireya was more familiar with Li Yu’s gadgets, she was not as shocked as the others and was the first to notice the newcomer, which startled her again.

"Miss Hamster, what are you doing here?"

"I’m doing what I should have done a long time ago," Adelle said softly, biting her lip.

At that moment, Priest Jile shifted his gaze from the drones to the new arrival and let out a light gasp, "Aren’t you that female priest who was expelled from the Church for deceiving the faithful?"

His words were overheard by some of Pisya’s followers, and jeers and curses erupted once again.

After a relentless campaign by the Silver Moon Church, Adelle’s reputation had been completely ruined, and she had become as scorned as a rat crossing the street.

Whenever she appeared, she was bound to face curses from the faithful, and some even picked up stones from the ground, but seeing the gleaming weapons in the hands of the Arias family guards, they cooled down a bit and ultimately did not throw them.

But Miss Rabbit remained worried for her close friend.

She could guess what was going through Adelle’s little head right now; the former priestess clearly also wanted to do something for the Double Rest Sect and herself.

However, the hostility Adelle was facing was much greater than that faced by a Universal Language teacher.

Jile kept fanning the flames at the sidelines, and the noise from the crowd grew louder, making it impossible for anyone to hear her even if she tried to speak now.

In fact, the petite Adelle looked as if she were being drowned by all kinds of foul language.

Under such heavy pressure, Miss Hamster appeared somewhat panicked, but she still smiled reassuringly at the Lady who was constantly worried about her.

Then she took out a small black barrel, wider at the front and narrower at the back, from behind her.

This Holy Artifact had been specially sought from Li Yu a few days before, just to deal with the current situation.

Adelle pressed a button labeled on/off, and then tapped a + button on the far right more than a dozen times.

She brought her mouth closer and, imitating Li Yu, began with a few unintelligible syllables.

She completed the incantation that preceded her spellcasting.

The next moment, the incantation known as "hello hello hello" activated the Holy Artifact in her hand, and the sound that came from the other end was a hundred times her own volume, instantly echoing across the entire Green Field.
