Chapter 196: Infiltration to the Church of Order Part 2

We managed to save around 20 people underground but we have no yet seen any Japanese people held captive by them.

"Are we back to square one again? I don't think a Japanese person is currently being held captive by them. We already rescued a lot of them but I don't see any sign of them," Ishana said as she keeps on track the survivors we managed to rescue.

"There are still 5 rooms left in the central chamber, maybe they are held captive in there. We haven't checked it yet and from what I have found in my scans so far is that they are also occupied. You guys should focus on going in there and rescue them."

Ishana nodded after hearing that. It looks like she didn't want it to be another operation where our main mission to find the transported to another world people who were tossed here around.

The four of us, including Aria who is keeping herself quiet from the battles finally arrived in the central area. The central area, also known as the main prayer hall is the place where the priests gather for morning mass and also the place where the meetings between the priests are held. Mass is being held every morning and afternoon. It was a good call for me to avoid infiltrating in the morning or else, we will be facing the wrath of those priests.

"Wow, look at this place! It looks amazing!" Ishana marveled on the central area.

"Hey, stop daydreaming and get going already. We can't afford to waste our time here," Yami said.

"Yami is right. We have to split up to cover more ground and rescue everyone."

Ishana pouted but she didn't complain. We split up and the two made their way to the prison rooms. However, I didn't went to the prison room immediately but rather going to the prisoner's chamber, I decided to go further in the central hall.

Making my way to the central hall's deepest part, I noticed one room is emitting a heavy amount of magic movement. It doesn't feel like it is coming from mana so I am sure this is coming from Philosopher's stones. Activating my [Insight], the room that is emitting a terrible amount of magic power contains two people. One is standing, a long haired guy with his right hand raised up in the air and the power and magic I felt earlier has been converging on his palm. The other one is kneeling and is currently kneeling on a pool of liquid that is unidentifiable using [Insight] alone. However, I have a hint on what that pool of liquid is.

Things are not as easy as I thought it would be.

"Are you sure you are going in and disrupt that thing on that room? It is potentially dangerous, since the flow of magic and mana seems to be in chaos and the mana in the air is currently in turmoil as it is being ignored due to the Philosopher's Stone," Blue warned me.

"I know. Things are just too troublesome so before it gets too hard to handle, I will destroy it first."

Next, I launched myself forward to the room and before my body goes in contact with the door, I covered myself in magic circles and activated them simultaneously though all the spells it contain is only one single spell.

"[Domain of Balmung!]"

BANG!

The magic that is being gathered at the moment was immediately cut off as it got disturbed by my entrance.

"YOU! HOW DARE YOU INTERRUPT MY CHANNELING RITUAL!"

So that was what he was doing. According to the notes on this world, channeling ritual is the act of using Philosopher's stones to revitalize one's body. It is usually used on people who are about to die or those who have bad injuries. However, there is one forbidden practice of using it and that is the "Immortalization Channeling Ritual." Basically put, it is a ritual that can lengthen one's life. However, it was also hard as it needs to be the purest Philospher's stone is needed to perform this and bt I mean purest, means it comes from a person with the highest amount of blood.

"Trying to get younger? Too bad, death is not so patient and generous enough to give you a life extension."

"You dare insult me!? Then DIE!"

He raise his arm once again. I didn't respond that much as I try to feel how strong the power of a Philosopher's stone.

"BLOOD SPIKES!"

Blood colored energy gathered around his palm. He then slammed his palm on the floor like how I use some of my magic spells.

CHAK CHAK CHAK!

Blood-red spikes appear on the floor beneath me and tried to pierce and impale me. However...

DANG DANG DANG DANG!

All of the bloodspikes he released did not even get to properly penetrate my skin. The moment they made contact to my body, all of the sharp spikes immediately crack and broken.

"WHAT?!"

Is that the power of the Philosopher's stone?

Blue whistled and explained things on me. "I see now what is the power of those stones. Indeed they are powerful, however, to someone like you who is already strong enough to survive a bomb explosion which exploded on your feet and still managed to live intact, that power is nothing but trash. It can only be describe by you as mediocre power."

I wanted to laugh hearing it. So the result of my training in Tower of Babel just managed me to score a trained body that is enough to stop someone who uses the power of Philosopher's stone. This was pathetic.

"Aa... aaa...aaaaahhhhh! Monster! Why you didn't die! That is an ultimate technique that is quite sure to devastate my opponent! Why are you still alive?! Why!?" the guy earlier who looked so smug is now no more and is currently shaking.

"Heh, you are asking me that? It's because you are weak that trampling you will be fun."
