Jiang Lu's left hand was covered with a layer of phantom that only he could see. Although he could not exert its original power at its current level and attributes, it was more than enough to scrape away at the wall.
The God of Redemption widened his eyes, his heartbeat became abnormally violent: "How could you..."
"Don't worry about the rest." Jiang Lu Teddy Bear put his hands on his hips: "Do you want me to help you get it out?"
"want!"
"Okay, now you keep quiet and don't disturb me."
"...OK."
Friends who have sat against the wall in school know that scratching the wall is a technical job. Not only do you have to control the angle, but you also have to control the strength. Otherwise, not only will it leave useless marks, but it will also easily break your nails.
Jiang Lu was working seriously. Perhaps because he was afraid that the God of Salvation would get bored, or maybe because he himself was bored, he actually started chatting about family matters.
"How old are you this year?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Oh, it's rude to ask a girl her age, right? Then change the question, what does our eldest brother do?"
"...No big brother."
"Hey, I'm still single. It's hard to find someone with your conditions, right?"
"..."
"Sister, do you think my strength is appropriate?"
"???"
Finally, Jiang Lu actually managed to pry open most of the statue.
He started from the back of the Goddess of Salvation, and the part he carved out was very tricky. Except for her feet, half of her calves, and the upper part of her thighs, the knees and the front of her legs were all still embedded in the statue.
He looked at the God of Redemption's pair of white, tender feet that could barely stand on tiptoe and touch the floor, as well as the tight calves that were not covered at all by the corrosion of the cursed shackles, and clapped his hands with satisfaction: "Mission accomplished!"
"Wait a minute!" The God of Redemption twisted his body anxiously: "I haven't come out yet, why don't you destroy it all?"
"Are you kidding?" Jiang Lu spread his hands. "Oh, get you out, wait for you to recover your strength, and then let me slaughter you? Are you going to take advantage of me?"
"Do you think I can't do anything to you now?" The God of Salvation became anxious and threatened.
"It's up to you." Jiang Lu smiled like a rolling knife: "Anyway, if you kill me, you can just wait for that chicken feather Michael to come and save you with the holy sword."
The God of Redemption was silent.
"what do you want?"
"You have to at least help me remove all the curses first, right?" Jiang Lu said with a serious face: "As for the rest, I'll think about it later."
At this moment, the God of Salvation suddenly thought of something.
"Don't bother with that. Would you like to consider..." She smiled charmingly, "Conclude a contract with me?"
Jiang Lu looked at her suspiciously: "What contract?"
The God of Redemption explained earnestly: "In Genesis chapter 2, verse 24, God said to Adam, 'A man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife; they shall become one flesh and support each other and shall not betray each other.' This is also called the Adamic Covenant."
"What the hell?" Jiang Lu was confused.
Who understands, my family members? The dungeon NPC wants to marry me, how embarrassing!
The God of Redemption bewitched him and said, "As long as you sign this contract, you won't be afraid of me doing something bad to you, and I won't be worried about you betraying me, because from the moment we sign the contract, our fates will be bound together."
"This is not good..." Jiang Lu looked at the God of Redemption shyly, then quickly lowered his head and said shyly: "This is my first time..."
The God of Salvation was eager to break free from the cursed shackles, and she believed that Jiang Lu could destroy the shackles that even the indestructible Spear of Longinus, known as the Spear of Destiny, could not break, which proved that he definitely had the ability to fight against God.
With hatred for God and an earnest desire to regain control of the Tower of Redemption, also known as the Black Tower, she was eager to bring Jiang Lu into her camp.
When it comes to such a person with unlimited potential, she is even willing to devote herself.
"It doesn't matter. This is my first time too." The God of Redemption spoke calmly, "Have you heard of the magic repairer? My redemption is more holy and noble than those lowly witches. Are you sure... it's not good?"
Jiang Lu considers himself to be a considerate person.
Now that things have come to this, it would be disrespectful to refuse further.
It's just a copy. You have to go back to Uganda once the mission is completed. It's also nice to experience the hidden plot.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lu asked a little embarrassedly: "Well... can I let you out later?"
Facing the ambiguous gaze of the God of Redemption, he explained: "I have to verify whether the so-called contract is a lie to me, right? I am from a vulnerable group and I feel insecure without any protection."
"As you please."
Jiang Lu snapped his fingers and patted the messenger who was not far away and was still immersed in thinking about the meaning of his life.
"Ah? What happened?" The messenger woke up as if from a dream.
Jiang Lu coughed twice, his eyes wandering: "Well, I still have a curse on me, so I can't move easily. Come and help me push it."
Chapter 20: Bad! It’s actually a honey trap!
What is called contrast?
She can be a desperado who puts his head on his waist, but shows a gentle side in front of cats and dogs. She can also be a socialite in the world of fame and fortune, who has experienced the ups and downs of life but always maintains her yearning for pure love...
The mystery behind it is fascinating.
Just like Jiang Lu never thought that the God of Redemption, who remained noble and dignified even when in dire straits, would have such a difficult side.
Fortunately, in the face of absolute strength, neither hiding one's weaknesses nor using tricks are of any use.
Even with his toes touching the ground of the Black Tower, the God of Salvation was able to barely regain some of his past glory and gain a slight advantage at the beginning.
But after all, talent sometimes cannot replace experience, and the experienced Jiang Lu quickly found her weakness.
Once Jiang Lu gained the advantage, he did not give the opponent any chance and only expanded his advantage like a snowball, until the resistance of the God of Redemption was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot and was unable to withstand a single blow.
No one expected that the God of Redemption, whom we had placed high hopes on, would eventually fall in front of Jiang Lu.
With his hands on the sculpture at his waist, the God of Salvation managed to maintain his balance and avoid falling forward.
She was breathing heavily, her mind was blank, her red lips were slightly parted, revealing a few white teeth, and hot air gushed out from time to time.
When she came to her senses, she hurriedly grabbed her long hair and covered her chest with it.
"As expected of a god, I've really been healed."
Jiang Lu relaxed his neck, his eyes full of surprise.
While the messenger was kneeling in front of him to help him clean up, he felt the changes in his body.
The curse has completely dissipated, proving that the redemption just now was very successful.
"Well then." Jiang Lu waved to the God of Redemption: "Bye."
Seeing Jiang Lu pull up his pants and turn around to leave, the God of Redemption, whose heart was still beating, was suddenly confused: "Wait! Where are you going?!"
"Ah?" Jiang Lu scratched his head: "The curse has been lifted, so I will definitely leave."
"Help me out first!"
Jiang Lu shook his head: "You asked me to marry you and then let you go. Do you take all the good things for yourself?"
"Ah?" The God of Redemption was stunned. He didn't even have time to care about his sore and numb body. He cried out helplessly, "Didn't we sign a contract?"
"Smile, the contract is just a drama..."
Before he finished saying the word "plot", Jiang Lu's voice stopped abruptly.
Originally, I just wanted to see if the task progress on the panel was updated, but I didn't expect that something incredible would appear.
[Congratulations on obtaining two BUFF attributes for Jiang Baochong's spiritual realm]

[Permanent BUFF: Oath of the God of Redemption] [You have concluded the Adam Covenant with the God of Redemption, and you can now check the status of the God of Redemption]
Frowning, Jiang Lu opened the personal attribute panel.
[God of Redemption - Ishina]
【grade:? ? ? 】
【Attributes:? ? ? 】
【Skill:? ? ? 】
[Note: The current level is too low and cannot be viewed temporarily]
"Hmm..." Jiang Lu's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
When he saw the change in the mission objective, his expression became even weirder.
[Mission Objective 1: Find the Secret of the Black Tower] [Completed]
[Mission Objective 0: Rescue the Exorcist trapped in the Black Tower] [16/]
Judging from the mission objectives, among the 16 exorcists who entered here before them but failed to survive and left the spirit realm, one seems to be still alive.
Suddenly, Jiang Lu realized something.
If there are exorcists on the current map who have entered here before, doesn't it mean that everyone has entered the same place, and the timeline and space line are still the same?
Thinking of this, Jiang Lu was shocked.
It's not a standalone copy?!
It might even be possible that this is... a real world somewhere!
Jiang Lu looked up at the God of Redemption and asked tentatively, "Your name is Ishina?"
The God of Redemption heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this: "It seems the contract has taken effect."
Jiang Lu took a deep breath after getting the affirmation.
Oh no, this spiritual realm is setting up a trap! Who can stand this?
Looking at the disheveled Ishina, his face was solemn. Just when the other party was wondering why Jiang Lu started to be dazed for no reason, he suddenly laughed out loud.
"Oh my, I'm just flirting with you."
Jiang Lu walked back to Yishina and held up her sweaty face. "You are so rude. If you had called me brother, I would have let you out. But you insisted that I give in first. You are so mean."
