First of all, let's introduce the current lineup. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As he spoke, with a smile that was indistinguishable between male and female, Vaji began to give a formal account of the current situation.

Crossbell's mutation, not everyone has been affected.

Qiya's strength is insufficient, and it can't affect the whole territory, not to mention the partners who support the department day and night, and even the strangers, the farther away from Crossbell, the less affected they are. When it came to Codex Country, basically no one was affected.

In this way, this "contradiction" is too obvious and abrupt.

Naturally, the Codex Kingdom would not allow the goddess's treasure to be abused like this, so it officially sent the guardian knight to settle in Crossbell.

For some reason, the church is not monolithic, and there is a vague sense of separation of powers and mutual restraint in the canonization province, the ceremonial province, and the monastic and military halls. One of the most typical examples is the Archbishop of the Church of Crossbell, Elalda, who is attached to the Rite Province and is extremely hostile to the Canonization Province...... Or rather, extremely hostile to the Knights of the Star Cup.

Although they are also members of the Qiyao Church, in the eyes of Archbishop Elalda, the Knights of the Star Grail are a group of executioners who flout the canon. Therefore, he absolutely did not allow the Knights of the Star Cup to settle in Crossbell.

That's why Kevin didn't enter Crossbell, Liz also sneaked in as an ordinary nun, and Waji just thought of himself as a gangster......

However, extraordinary times have been very difficult, and there has been such a big problem that even the archbishop of the ceremonial province cannot force the Knights of the Star Cup to enter Crossbell.

In the Star Cup Knights, the twelve people with the most amazing combat effectiveness are called the Twelve Guardian Knights, they have a wonderful power called stigma, back then, the three pillars of the snake Wiseman, in order to study the artificial stigma, violated the rules of the church and broke the ring and fled.

The power of the stigmata Vaji didn't say much, he actually showed it, snapped his fingers slightly, and saw the blazing white light behind him emerge to form a strange pattern, based on this, his arm quickly glowed with a strange blue-purple luster, turning into a strange arm that looked like a stone and a cuticle.

Vaji smiled and shrugged, his arm returning to its original shape, and the wonderful glow behind him vanished.

The power of stigmata can allow ordinary people to exert amazing combat power. If you want to talk about the form of expression, it's a bit similar to the true knowledge that Yu Chensi ate, but the increase is higher, but the alienation of the body is less. Stigmata is more like a magic weapon with a time limit for use, and the user can look at it as much as it wants, but it is still human, and it will not change much.

Vaji didn't say much about stigmata, but Lloyd immediately thought of Vaji's blow to defeat Varudo, and that spirit blow was really ...... It's terrifying......

Is that the power of true stigma?

There are now 4 Guardian Knights of Crossbell gathered.

Fifth Knight [Gauntlet of a Thousand Hands] Kevin? Graham, from Knight Liz? Yarzhent.

The Ninth Knight [Cang no Holy Text] Waji? Hermisfia, from the knight Abbas.

First Knight, Chief of the Star Cup Knights [Obsidian] Ain? Cernat, a star mark from the knight of the Thousand Moons.

Eleventh Knight [Blade of the Sky] Azelly? Norr, come alone.

Of the twelve guardian knights, four came, which was almost one-third of the church's high-level combat power, which showed the importance that the church attached to this time.

"But...... There are only two people here...... The other two ......"

Lixia wasn't sure if she should ask, but she did.

After all, if you want to arrange tactical tactics, you must know the strength of your own people and the position you are in.

And......

Lixia doesn't trust the Knights of the Star Cup.

There are too many bad deeds of this order.

It's not hard to understand why the Ministry of Ceremonies hates them, even Lixia as an outsider, and it is said that they can do anything to recover ancient relics. For example, they are special hunters who can reason and negotiate conditions, but will never stop until they achieve their goal.

Moreover, they are here for Kia...... Lloyd also acted for Kia......

Perhaps for the sake of the same enemy, they can join forces for the time being...... But...... Once the conspiracy of the association is broken, then the two groups are bound to go to war.

"Ah, the chief's words, it is said that he went to find Youjun."

Kevin scratched his head as he spoke, revealing a sympathetic look worth playing: "I wish he was okay." ”

"Oh? Father Kevin, are you familiar with Youjun? ”

Lloyd asked curiously.

"Huh?! Didn't he say anything about me?! The two of us are comrades-in-arms in the Liber Mutation and the Land of Shadows! What an indifferent person. ”

Kevin showed a pitiful look like a hungry puppy, but before Lloyd could say anything to comfort him, he saw a bitter smile quickly climb on his face: "Ah~ That's the You Jun I know." ”

Lloyd's forehead was sweating, and he swallowed all the comforting words he had just thought of, Lixia quietly tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "You Jun is really ...... Got to know a whole bunch of amazing people......"

Indeed, if you think about it carefully, You Tatsumi's concept of making friends is really very broad. The lowest status is the guerrillas, who are basically civilians. The highest status is the crown princess (Olivier is the crown prince rather than the crown prince, and has a lower status in the line of succession). The most mysterious identity is the executor of the association, and the most wonderful identity is the guardian knight of the Qiyao Church......

What is the origin of this man......

Although it was a little late, Lloyd finally had a "real feeling" until today, feeling that the black-haired man next to him who was always smiling was really terrifying. If nothing else, it is enough to say that he can have friends in hostile associations and churches.

"As for the Sky Knight? We don't know, this time he also came in secret, and the guardian knights actually rarely see each other. Aside from the chief, most of us only know a few Guardian Knights. ”

Vaji smiled and shrugged, looking indifferent. But come to think of it, except for the mutation of the Seven Supreme Treasure levels, there is basically no need for the guardian knights to join forces. Even in Libel's Ring of Radiance incident, the church only dispatched Kevin alone, and this time four people were dispatched, and the chief himself was there, which shows the degree of attention.

Or rather...... Visible severity......

"Seriously, we at the Seven Jewels Church are very grateful to all of you, because of your efforts, Crossbell's Phantom Flame Project has been launched ahead of schedule. It is obvious that the power of the Illusion Arcana is very weak, and we can deal with it in advance. If it's the heyday, then maybe something will happen......"

Before Waji could finish speaking, a roaring bell rang......

"What's wrong?!"

Faced with this deafening loud noise, Lloyd quickly covered his ears and shouted at the same time. But the people around me are doing the same thing, and no one can hear what everyone is saying.

The bell didn't last long, and soon, Lloyd felt the sound that seemed to even shake his body disappear.

He couldn't help but look in the direction of Crossbell, but unfortunately, his eyes didn't see anything......

"What's wrong?"

Lloyd noticed who Vaji was using Anigma to contact, and thought that something might be wrong, and immediately asked.

“…… Well, Merkava's message ......"

Waji's face was solemn, and he paused, signaling Lloyd to be mentally prepared. The brown-haired boy nodded and said, "No problem, you can say it." ”

"In Crossbell's territory, the reaction of the Illusory Treasure has become stronger, and it has grown stronger by leaps and bounds...... Because, the army of the Erebonian Empire has come over...... The anger of the Garelian fortress made them lose their minds......"

"Wait?! Shouldn't the current 'history' be that the Garelian fortress is intact? ”

"That's why they're coming through the Garelian Fortress!"

Waji was also a little anxious, and his jade-like eyebrows twisted into a ball......

This is the problem of Kia's lack of strength.

She can change the people of Crossbell and change some history, but ah, the so-called butterfly effect is the meaning of pulling a hair and moving the whole body.

If it's just a casual tampering, then there will inevitably be a paradox.

It's like, if Guy hadn't died, Lloyd wouldn't have been a cop.

If Crossbell had been an independent country, there would have been no Special Mission Support Section.

So...... Crossbell has always been independent...... There is no such thing as the Orchid Tower, and Lenster blocks the fortress in one fell swoop and destroys the Garelian fortress in one fell swoop......

So, the gates of the Imperial invasion of Crossbell were intact.

However, Kia's influence was not so great, and the people living in the Erebonian Empire, even after the fact that the Garelian fortress had been wiped out, still resented Crossbell in their hearts...... Moreover, as a small country, and a wealthy small country, Crossbell has naturally been coveted by the Erebonian Empire......

Think of Liber......

Will they spare a country area that is inferior to Liber in terms of military strength, but will Cross Bell, who has better economic strength and strategic location, live alone on the border?

Now Cross Bell's mutation has become their breakthrough.

Under the banner of "Friendly Aid" and the slogan of "Revenge", the war of aggression against the Duchy of Crossbell was inspiring at home...... Here we go.

"War?!"

Lloyd said urgently. Waji shook his head and said, "Don't worry, listen to me......"

But...... The invading army, to put it mildly, was routed.

It was a gigantic robot that rivaled Patil Matil...... They easily wiped out the invading forces of the Erebonian Empire......

And with this as an opportunity, Crossbell rang the bell again, and something resembling a protective shield enveloped the city of Crossbell......

Is it really Kia's style, in order to [protect] Cross Bell?

Wait a minute?

Lloyd suddenly noticed a problem......

"Waji, you say...... Three robots, 'easily' annihilated the invading army, right? ”

"Yes. There is no way to fight back. ”

Vaji didn't understand why he asked, and replied obediently.

"So...... What is the need for her...... Do you have to raise a 'protective shield'? ”

Lloyd's eyes narrowed......

Could it be ...... That hood doesn't mean "protection"? But what does it mean to be imprisoned?

...... in Crossbell What happened? (To be continued.) )
