Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 245 Candidates
"I...I'm going to leave for a while." Miyata said to Lin Ran on the rooftop.

"Huh? Why?" Lin Ran asked in confusion. Didn't she usually stay close to him? Why did she suddenly leave?

"Master has a mission for me, so I have to leave for a while... Don't worry, I will be back soon." Miyata smiled.

"Oh..." Lin Ran didn't ask any more questions.

Then Miyata left.

This happened a few days ago, and I don’t know where Miyata was doing.

But there shouldn't be any problem.

……

In Nanting Feiting, Saint Ande, who was wearing a thin silk nightgown that stuck to her body, looked very calm. She was the most attractive candidate at the moment, but she did not have a very stunning face. However, she unexpectedly had an extremely proud figure. The cool night breeze from the mountain blew, and the wind made the soft silk dress stick to her smooth and curvy body completely...

She was barefoot, looking down calmly at the dimly lit Acropolis.

She has been like this for many years. She likes to stand at this height to enjoy the most prosperous night view of the city, and also likes to see the dark heads of people, crazy, pious, and joining in the fun, calling her name in unison...

But now, she didn't have such a dreamy mood!

"This result is not what we expected." The great sage Merola stood at the stone carving in the flower garden, her expression gloomy.

"This is an election that is more grand than the presidential one. How could it go smoothly? And how could the list of four saints be all ours?" Ander said calmly.

"You don't care at all about Asharuya jumping out to disrupt the situation, and you don't care at all about who is behind Ye Xinxia?" said the great sage Merola.

"I have a hunch." Ander slowly walked down from the flying pavilion. She walked down the steps of the pigeon-white stone platform. She did not continue the previous topic. She said with some emotion, "I originally thought that our biggest enemy was Paniga..."

"Are you worried about Asharuya?" Merola said.

Ander shook her head slowly. She said solemnly, "It's terrible. I still don't know who they are."

"Are you worrying too much? Now as long as we get through the last period of the Holy Maiden's presence, we won't have this anxiety anymore. When I was assisting Yi Zhisha, she was also so worried. She always told me about her brother, but in the end, it was still her, wasn't it?" said the great sage Merola.

Just as the two were talking, the old maid Gulan came running over in a hurry. She also dismissed the maids serving in the courtyard, and then she walked to Merola and Ander in a panic.

"Essendel... has been caught!" Gulan said in a tone that he himself didn't want to believe.

"That's the premonition I was talking about," Ender said.

At this time, Merola, who was standing aside, was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She couldn't even hold the Staff of the Supreme Virtuous Lady in her hand firmly, and it fell down and hit the carved stone.

"Then let's..."

"We've already lost," said Ender.

"But how is this possible? We have already, we are about to rule this place!" The great sage Merola was distraught and looked much older in an instant.

"How ridiculous! I still don't know who the enemy is..." Ander laughed at herself. She then glanced at the Acropolis of Athens with its lights on, unbuttoned her thin clothes, and walked out of the flying pavilion step by step.

Under the flying pavilion is the cliff of the sacred mountain, and at the bottom is the tens of thousands of stairs.

Gulan on the side was about to say something when she saw Ander still walking forward. The moonlight reflected on her naked body. She was as smooth as a milky white sculpture, and she was radiant with charm for a moment!

She had already reached the edge, but she took another step and her body suddenly fell down. Gulan beside her screamed for a moment.

Without the protection of any magic, and without seeing Ender perform any abilities, she just fell, faster and faster! ! !
……

Outside the window, Xinxia was sitting on a platform a hundred meters away. She was talking to Asharuya about some trivial things when she suddenly froze. Her eyes were fixed on the cliff in the distance...

"It seems like someone fell down." Xinxia was somewhat certain, and she pointed outside.

"You are a candidate now. Who else will be above your house?" Asharuya didn't even turn her head, with a gentle smile on her face.

"Is it really a human?" Xinxia clenched the side of the wheelchair with both hands. She wanted to get out now.

The sacred mountain is very high and it would take a long time to fall down. If she goes there now, it should be enough time to save the person.

"If you don't let her die tonight, she will hate you for the rest of her life." Asharuya said.

"Is this person Ander?" Xinxia said with a complicated look.

"Yes, she is such a smart woman. However, this is what she deserves," Asharuya said.

"I want to leave here now." Xinxia said confidently.

In fact, when the Temple Mother listed her as a candidate, Xinxia wanted to leave. She was just an outsider in the Parthenon, but she didn't expect to be caught up in this dispute between the goddesses.

"Since the first day you entered the Parthenon Academy, you have been following a green passage leading to the Goddess Temple, right?" Asharuya suddenly said.

"I want to get out of here."

"Hehe, are you sincere about this?" Asharuya laughed. Without waiting for Xinxia to answer, she continued, "I thought you were very old, but I didn't expect you to be so young. Now that we meet today, I hope we can keep to ourselves."

at the same time.

An almost invisible shadow approached Ender's body, placed another body here, and then sneaked into the shadows with Ender's still twitching body.

……

"I... I'm not dead?" A naked woman slowly stood up, and the afterglow of the early morning fell on her delicate body.

There is something unpleasant about the sunlight….

"Are you feeling unwell?" Suddenly a clear voice sounded.

The woman turned around and found a girl in a kimono. The girl was not very old but she exuded a strange smell, which was the smell of the dead.

This girl is a ghost. She looked at her hands in confusion. They were no longer warm, but she still felt the same as before.

"I became a ghost?" the woman said.

"That's right, let's...let's serve the king together." said the girl in kimono.

"King? Khufu? Or the king of the ancient capital?" Ander said. "No... not them. Our king is the one who will rule the world. By the way, my name is Miyata." The kimono girl said.

"You can call me Ander. I think you should know me. Can you take me to see the king now?" Ander said.

……

During the interval of the World University Competition, another shocking news swept the whole world. When the news reached Venice, the whole city was in an uproar.

After Lin Ran woke up from his retreat, he heard the news about the candidate.

Lin Ran had actually heard of the name Ander. On the one hand, people in Europe were very religious and they regarded the Parthenon as the most sacred temple, and the goddess as the spokesperson of God like the Pope, so Lin Ran had some understanding of her.

Moreover, he had heard Xinxia mention it several times.

The goddesses of the Parthenon are not people who rely solely on preaching and faith. These goddesses are people who truly possess the magic of resurrection.

Generally speaking, once life is gone, it is gone, and it is the only thing that cannot be regained. However, this magical power can resurrect a person, which is extremely against the will of heaven.

"The Parthenon will definitely declare that Ander has always had a genetic disease. She originally wanted to dedicate her limited life to the world and do more for the world, but the gods had pity on her and didn't want her to work hard anymore, so they let her go to heaven... She didn't leave us, she just went to the side of God. She no longer needs to convey the will, nor does she need to pray and listen. She is praying for all of us by the side of God..."

"The death of Saint Andre is a moment of silence for the whole world. Now some people in the Holy Court have raised doubts. They think Saint Andre committed suicide out of fear of punishment. After all, Essendel's criminal record is long, and he had a close relationship with Saint Andre before."

"Andrea's body is not open to the public. She is a good candidate for discovery. She has done a lot for Greece, for Europe, and for every continent..."

These messages were overwhelming. Lin Ran opened his phone and found that it was all about Ander. When he talked to others, people also talked about this matter. Lin Ran, like Mo Fan, didn't care much about the political situation or major events in the temple. So if Ander died, it was fine. It had nothing to do with him anyway.

However, Lin Ran was confused by the fact that the Dark Lord Essendel, who had previously had a secret conversation with Pang Lai, was arrested and executed. This was a forbidden spell, so how could he be killed like this? It was a pity.

With Essendel's strength, there are only a handful of people who can defeat him. What's more, Essendel is a dark mage, a dark master who doesn't want to die. There is no reason for him to be caught!
"You and Mo Fan really don't care about Ander at all. I tell you, I have an insider. Ander committed suicide. She was not wearing any clothes. She jumped from the highest point of the Parthenon without any protection. Then she fell on the ladder and was bloody. Tsk tsk tsk, a goddess candidate with such a good figure was smashed into a pulp. Maybe she, who was so pure and innocent, had never tasted the taste of a man..." Zhao Manyan sighed endlessly at the side, and Mo Fan was there too.

Zhao Manyan was considered an upper-class figure, so he knew much more information than ordinary people.

“That’s amazing! Her death has overshadowed the incident with Essendel. No matter if she died of illness or committed suicide, I just can’t understand how stupid a dark ancestor must be to be arrested!” said Mo Fan.

Lin Ran was also curious about this.

"Do you really want to know?" Zhao Manyan asked mysteriously at this time.

“What you are talking about is nonsense! What I worship is magic and strength, not a struggle for power!” said Mo Fan.

As for Ande's affairs, Mo Fan knew without hesitation that she was the loser in the power struggle and was pulled down from the altar when she was at the peak of her career. Mo Fan didn't know the complicated relationship and had no interest in knowing.

"Let me tell you, I have something really good here. This is a fragmentary video of the killing of Essendel. Do you want to see it? Of course, this thing is banned. The Holy Court of Inquisition has announced before that anyone who watches it is committing a crime. Are you sure you want to see it?" Zhao Manyan said.

“Is the source of this thing clean?” Mo Fan raised his eyebrows.

Lin Ran also looked at Zhao Manyan.

"Of course. Very clean."

"Then play it."

……

night.

Lin Ran was in his room, looking at the thing on the screen. This was the European Grim Reaper, the one that tore Essendel into pieces. Hmm..., its strength was pretty good, probably about the same as the Mountain Corpse. Well~, I would definitely win in a one-on-one fight.

Suddenly, a shadow began to move in the corner of the room.

"This is Haila, the European god of death." Ander said, and then she knelt on one knee.

Lin Ran turned around and saw Miyata and a woman he had never seen before. They looked familiar. He touched his chin and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm former candidate Ander."

"Ah? Oh my god..., aren't you dead?" Lin Ran stood up and looked at the woman in surprise. She did have a good figure, and although her face was not as beautiful as Mu Ningxue and the others, it was also very good.

"I'm dead. The one in front of you is the undead Ender." Ender said.

Lin Ran was still a little confused. He said, "That means Miyata left in order to turn you into a ghost. Tsk tsk tsk, Miyata, you still have a lot of things to hide from me."

"Yes... I'm sorry, Master said that I can only confess some things after I become a king." Miyata said hurriedly.

Ander looked at Lin Ran and said, "It's really puzzling that the king of the undead is not undead."

"Oh, please get up. I feel weird seeing you like this." Lin Ran said.

Ander stood up and continued to look at Lin Ran.

"By the way, master, please give a bit of the immortal fire to Ande. She needs your strength to maintain her physical existence." Miyata said.

Ander is undead now, but she will soon become a corpse. After all, she is not a ghost.

“Oh…” Lin Ran separated a trace of the immortal fire and placed it in Ander’s hand.

Ander looked at the flame in surprise. She could feel the tremendous power in it, as if this power could make her immortal.

Ender absorbed the flame.

Then Ander showed an expression of enlightenment. When she was still a human, she felt that she was very close to and yet very far away from God. But now a God who could grant her immortality was right in front of her. If she had known this earlier, she would rather die earlier.

How exciting it is to witness the birth of a god. Looking at Lin Ran's eyes falling on her chest from time to time, the corners of her mouth raised slightly. She even has a chance to sleep with this god.

"Then I'm leaving." Miyata left.

Lin Ran continued to watch the video given by Zhao Manyan. He was thinking about how to fight this guy more easily next time he met him.

But suddenly he was stunned.

"Master... let's do something interesting, like defile a pure saint."
