Chapitre 271: The Tenebrous Flame

Seeing this intelligent flame, the old man's face went blank for a few minutes before breaking out into a laugh.

"A… A Tenebrous Flame? You spoke so boldly while being just an Exalted Human? The Church can piss off."

This was certainly not the reaction Daneel was expecting, but he only smiled in response before pulling his fist back and punching the air.

This made the green skull shoot forward with its mouth wide open, as if it wanted to swallow the old man whole.

Yet, it was stopped by a barrier that sprung up in the air.

Although Daneel had been expecting such a response, the barrier itself surprised him.

This was one of the most unique barriers Daneel had ever seen.

Usually, barriers were semi-transparent hemispheres that blocked attacks regardless of where they came from.

This one was different: it was in the form of a thick transparent shield.
