Vol 3 Chapter 436: Busy
April 1, 1879. For Sean and Andrew, this is just a representative holiday of April Fools' Day in a certain era. For the Church of God of War and the Church of Morning Light, this day is an absolutely unforgettable day of bad news. Even for the Principality of Hemadion, it was an extremely painful day of disaster.
Adroan, this huge city with a resident population of more than 100,000 and an active population of close to 200,000, has not only turned into a ruin, but there are not more than a thousand survivors who even survived by fluke. It can be said that it is not just a commercial city that has been damaged, but even the authority of the Hemaden Principality and the strategic layout of the entire Hemaden Principality.
After all, the Principality of Hemadion is the defensive line of the Great Holy City of Marz in the east, and Adroan is the most prominent strategic point of this line of defense. In order to ensure the importance and strategic importance of Adroan, the Principality of Hemadion used Adroan as the core to spend huge sums of money to build a series of defensive barriers. This barrier is the [East Wall] to resist The core point of the entire line of defense of invasion.
However, the city that is now the core of this frontline has been completely destroyed, which is equivalent to saying that all the efforts made by the Principality of Hemadian back then were in vain.
The entire east wall has fallen into a defensive loophole full of holes.
However, compared with the concerns and considerations of the Church of God of War and the Church of Chenguang, the problem that the Principality of Hemadian has been worrying about at this moment seems a little trivial.
The fourth day since the end of the battle of fate.
At this time, in a Gobi desert a few kilometers away from Adroan, a young man wearing a white robe of a round-necked chief priest was on the edge of a sinkhole.
This man has short silver-white hair. There are small fragments of hair on the forehead. It seems that he cut his hair with a sharp tool after the hair was too long, just to save trouble, not to pursue beauty and appearance. His pupils were golden like liquid gold, and the corners of his eyes were narrow and long. This makes his eyes look particularly sharp. He also has a tall nose and slightly thin lips. If it weren't for his face to be slightly pale to make him look sick, his facial features are enough to give him a very strong sense of oppression.
Beside this young man, there are dozens of fighters who cannot distinguish their identity, gender, and age.
The reason why it is impossible to distinguish identity, gender and age is because these fighters are wearing special black armor. The armor is a uniform type of heavy armor. It is not a male breastplate or a female breastplate that can distinguish gender. This set of heavy armor is smeared with red totem textures. When this set of armor is worn on the body, these red totem textures will emit strange red lights, as if they are some kind of active substance, and can be obvious It can be seen that these red totem textures should be some kind of magical painting pattern.
And every warrior wearing heavy armor, they all wear helmets covered with iron masks. The masks concealed their faces, and all the masks were painted with particularly hideous and terrifying demonic faces. In addition, each soldier has three matching weapons: a heavy-duty chopper with a thick spine attached to the left waist; a half-length heavy square shield on the back; Bladed spear.
The number of these fighters is not large. There are only thirty.
But the aura in everyone is very strong.
All churches on the Continent of Miracles know it. The Empire of St. Joels has a special knight order that specifically targets demons, heretics, and all element-related anomalies: the Judgment Knights. Similarly, only a few churches and organizations know that there is an expeditionary force on the abyss plane named under the Knights of Judgment: the Knights of the Dark Face. But only a very small number of people will know that there is a very special combat unit within the Chenguang Church.
Abyss Wings Knights.
Like the front and back of a coin, the Knights of Abyss Wings is the opposite of the Knights of White Wings.
The source of the supply of troops for this knight order is the Dark Face Knights. Only a few members of the Darkface Knights who can pass a series of tests, selections, and trainings are eligible to join the Abyss Wings Knights. It is precisely because of this extremely strict blood replenishment method that the Knights of Abyss Wings can become the knights in the Church of Morning Light that can be as famous as the White Wings.
Of course, the only pity is. The number of the dark side knights is too scarce.
The entire Knights of Abyss Wings has less than fifty members.
But fortunately, every member of this knight order. They all have the super combat power to be able to act on their own. For these people who often go to and out of the abyss, **** battles and death battles, the conventional level calculation method can't work on them at all. Basically, even the "recruits" who have just joined the Knights of Abyss Wings have a terrible record of killing the enemy at least two levels.
Of course, in the face of the battle of the wall of absolute rank, they can at least be able to protect themselves.
The Abyss Wings Knight Order is the most secret special operation unit of the Morning Light Church.
Thirty people came this time. If any organization force knows about it, it will inevitably be shocked.
But what was even more shocking was not the appearance of the Knights of Abyss Wings.
But the young man with silver hair.
He is the commander of the Knights of Abyss Wings, the chief planner and person in charge of the "Dark Face Knights" project, and the commander-in-chief of the Chenguang Church's Expedition to the Abyss.
If Ziggs is the head of the White Wing Knights and a symbol of the light side, then this young man is a symbol of the dark side.
Inside the Judgment Knights, those knights called him instructors. The Dark Face Knights feared him from the bottom of their hearts, and privately called him Death; the members of the Abyss Wings Knights called him the captain.
As for his original name, it has long been forgotten.
Zigs and the others, they called him Xiaobai, because his hair was silvery white.
At this moment, Xiaobai was standing on the edge of the pit, staring at the corpse deep in the pit.
This corpse is Laurent who was killed by Kozilek.
Angel outfit. Gabriel holder.
"Captain, there is no abnormal situation around." A member of Abyss Wings stepped to Xiaobai's face, his voice was a little hoarse, it seemed that his vocal cords had been severely damaged, "Others are returning to the team. According to the report from the front. According to the information, the current Darkface Knights have been wiped out. And Adroan has also been completely destroyed. There is no complete building in the entire city, and all the previous survivors have fled the ruins. Currently unable to..."
Before this member of Abyss Wings could speak, Xiao Bai had already raised his left hand to prevent him from continuing to speak.
Being able to become members of Abyss Wings, these people have experienced tremendous torture and pain that outsiders can't imagine. So they were afraid of Xiaobai. It will only be more profound than in the period of the Dark Face Knights. But it will never be reduced by being promoted to the members of Abyss Wings, especially the members who "fortunately" have fought side by side with Xiaobai, that fear is simply etched in their souls.
Xiaobai no longer paid attention to the members of the Abyss Wings, but jumped into the pit, sliding directly from the edge to the corpse of Laurent at the bottom of the pit.
Laurent’s body did not have any superficial injuries, at least it was completely invisible where Xiao Bai’s eyes were looking.
From this point, it is difficult to see how Laurent died.
However, Xiao Bai only hesitated slightly. Just squat down. Stretch out a finger.
At this moment, his golden eyes instantly turned white, and there was even a flame burning in the eyes. But what’s weird is that the pupils of the eyes have become white, completely blending with the white part of the eyes, and the parts that look like the eyes are completely white. In this case, anyone only needs to look towards the small White eyes. You can see a white flame burning in his eyes.
I saw Xiaobai’s right index finger also ignited a ray of white flame, and then reached out to send the ray of flame from the center of Laurent’s eyebrows.
One second later. Xiaobai's face changed.
After any creature dies, the fire of life will naturally extinguish—this extinguishment not only refers to the soul, but also includes the power of life and so on. To explain with the words of the gods, everything that belongs to creatures will return to the law: the soul enters the kingdom of the **** of its faith, the power of life will turn into the source and return to the hands of the goddess of life, the corpse will sink into the earth and return to the world, etc. Wait.
Regardless of the return of these origins, only the part of the life force, even the goddess of life cannot completely collect. In other words, there will still be a small part of the life force remaining in the corpse, which is also a "trading principle" for the corpse to be buried in the earth to return it to its origin in the world.
But now!
Amidst Xiaobai’s temptation, Laurent’s corpse did not contain any remaining vitality, and completely disappeared!
Even the soul is gone!
This is definitely not normal!
In this action, the Saint-Joles Empire sent four paladins. But the right wing of the gods, the bearer of the angel costume. Raphael, Nazar had been killed in the previous action. But even if he had been killed, his soul returned to the soul sanctuary of the Morning Light Church. After surrendering his angel costume, his soul directly entered the kingdom of the Morning Light God.
Similarly, there is another person who returned to the Hall of Souls: Jébion, known as the Eternal Shield.
But Ziggs and Laurent did not return to the hall of souls.
Xiaobai received a secret order from the Pope of the Morning Light Church, his first reaction was that the two paladins were not dead. But after searching all the way, he saw Laurent’s body, which surprised Xiaobai. Later, when he discovered that Laurent’s body not only had the fire of life, but even the soul had completely disappeared, he was at this moment. Really shocked.
Of course, what was even more shocking was that he had just received a secret order from the Pope that neither Michael nor Raguire had returned!
Jerbeen is called the Eternal Shield because he has the angel costume. Raguel, but his soul returned to the Soul Sanctuary and completed the road to reincarnation to the kingdom of the **** of morning light, but the angel Gu Zou Laguier was not brought back with his return, which is simply unimaginable!
Xiao Bai put his hand on Laurent’s chest, and then applied a slight force, and the milky white flame ignited from his hand and began to penetrate Laurent’s body gradually.
In just a while, when Xiao Bai's hand left Laurent's chest, he simultaneously brought out a cloud of blue light like a sapphire.
This is the angel costume. Gabriel.
Looking at the appearance of this set of angel costumes, Xiao Bai's face not only didn't become relaxed, but it became more solemn. At this moment, he suddenly had an intuition that the "sword and shield combination" of Michael and Raguire might have been lost. And let’s not guess what was going on with Ziggs’ death. From the corpse of Laurent, Xiao Bai understood that Chenguang Church might really be in serious trouble this time.
But compared to Chenguang Church, the foundation is more profound.
The inside of the Church of God of War is really a chilling atmosphere.
The death of the two saints, Marz has already sent down an extremely angry oracle, and he can't wait to let the newly born saint hold the **** of war ceremony. However, no matter how anxious Marz is, this God of War ceremony is not something that can be convened immediately. At least the preparatory work cannot be abolished. Therefore, in order to calm Marz’s anger, everyone in the entire Marz Great Sanctuary All stopped other people's preparations for the God of War ceremony, and began to get busy for Emily's God of War ceremony.
It’s just that because Sean hasn’t appeared yet, Emily didn’t dare to hold the God of War ceremony directly, so her non-cooperation naturally hindered the preparation of the ceremony. As a result, the saint’s **** of war ceremony could not be held for a long time, and Marz’s anger naturally could not be calmed down, so that the pope, who was busy trying to receive the inner power of the two deceased sons, had to give up temporarily. Those tempting things, personally presided over Emily's God of War ceremony.
In this case, even if Emily deliberately procrastinated, it would be difficult to affect the internal operation of the Church of God of War. However, her behavior naturally disturbed the inner atmosphere of the Church of God of War to a greater or lesser degree, so that many princes of the Northern Principality Federation smelled some unusual aura. Although they may not be able to know the news that the two holy sons have died at this time, their keen political sense also made them realize that there may be some problems within the Church of God of War. The multi-party snooping and intelligence interaction quickly made the entire North Principality. The Federation has produced some signs of confusion.
This sudden move naturally disrupted the predictions of the Pope of the Church of God of War.
So, Emily soon received an order from the Pope of the Church of God of War that she must perform the God of War ceremony at noon tomorrow! (To be continued~^~)
