Just as the dark wizard Victor was gathering his strength and planning to retrieve his treasure, the territory of the demon hunters also welcomed representatives of the first wave of Paladin Expeditionary Force.

Although he had already received news from Pastor Richard, Xu Yichen was still shocked by the fifty holy warriors in front of him.

Within the Church, the Paladins and the Priests are divided between the old and the new.

Xu Yichen's direct contact with Anthony Dagang was basically a new generation of holy warriors and priests, most of whom were selected from an early age to receive rigorous military training at the training bases of their respective sects.

These people are collectively known as the Paladins, but not all of them will be promoted to professional status, and two-thirds of them will eventually have to accept the consequences of serving their gods in the flesh.

This is also the reason why the older generation of holy warriors who have grown up from actual combat have always treated the new generation coldly, and they do not believe that such holy warriors can have firm beliefs.

However, it cannot be denied that the number of the new generation of holy warriors and priests has brought a wave of explosive growth to the overall strength of the church.

The Paladin Expeditionary Force, led by Stannis, is the last bastion of the traditional paladins and one of the most combative groups in the Church.

It is called the Paladin Expeditionary Force because this armed force with paladins as the main body has fought in the Chaos Fall Zone many times under the leadership of Stannis, and has also fought against the legions of the ancient Roman Empire on the front line many times.

Compared to the Gregorian Chant Corps, which are mainly spellcasters, the Paladin Expeditionary Force is more like a hammer in the hands of the Church, sending them wherever there is a problem.

The Demon Hunter stood on the city wall and watched as fifty paladins rode their respective celestial warhorses galloping from afar.

Although the knights did not show their weapons in order to show friendship, the momentum of my invincibility has already rushed to their faces!

The concentration of professionals and the use of them as an army was also a first of its kind in the Church, and it was truly invincible more than 50 years ago, when the number of professionals was still very scarce.

However, in recent decades, as the energy level of the whole world has risen, the bugs in the New World have not been mentioned, and the mages there are almost popularized by the whole people, and many rich principalities in the Old World have also established their own pure professional armies.

However, the background of the Paladin Expeditionary Force is indeed not comparable to those rising stars.

These paladines, who wore heavy armor and belonged to the cavalry infantry in the strict sense of the word, and the noble knights learned how to use the power of the celestial horses to charge with a wave of mounted spears.

They were generally equipped with disposable wooden rifles, with hollow wooden guns, allowing the paladins to flexibly switch their primary weapons and engage in melee after completing a charge.

The Church, with its deep pockets, is armed to the teeth with its own cutting-edge armed forces.

Not to mention the full set of armor, each paladin is equipped with a small space equipment dedicated to storing weapons, and the rich space inside also carries enough supplies for a paladin to eat for a week.

Of course, most of the high-ranking officers will bring their own weapons and equipment.

The paladins under the command of different gods also have slightly different equipment, for example, the brothers and nobles of the Temple of the God of War prefer a practical style according to the preferences of Kampas.

The acolytes of Loshanda prefer glittering armor, and although this makes them easier targets for enemies on the battlefield, the sheer power of the Lord of Dawn has kept them in a third of the entire legion.

In reality, the entire Paladin Expeditionary Force was rarely used together, although they were seen as a whole and were often thrown together on the battlefield.

However, Stannis spent most of his time using paladins of different faiths separately, and some gods were better suited to act as healers or forges than to fight head-on.

The holy warrior who appeared in front of Xu Yichen at this time was the holy warrior of the Dawn Church and the holy warrior of the God of War Temple.

It is also the main fighting force in the Paladin Expeditionary Force, the god of war acolytes who are good at fighting, and the followers of Loshanda who are good at fighting evil.

They are all proficient in slashing evil spirits, dispelling necromancy, and possessing an aura of courage.

When it comes to fighting Chaos, these talents have amazing effects.

The holy warriors, who are already strong and strong, can learn the two extremely practical divine techniques of [Protecting against Chaos] and [Enduring the Environment] when they are exposed to the One Ring Divine Technique, so that they can better fight against Chaos.

Fifty Celestial War Horses were parked a hundred meters away from the wall, and the refugees living outside the wall were already standing on both sides of the road, waiting for onlookers, no, welcome these holy warriors.

"Warmly welcome the Holy Warrior Expeditionary Force to our department for guidance!" There was a banner on the city wall that I don't know who had written it in advance, making the demon hunter feel that his face was dark.

Before Xu Yichen returned, Yang Yuefan had already formulated a relevant plan for the relevant policies on living in harmony with the Holy Samurai Expeditionary Force, and he had no way to oppose it.

Of course, as the mastermind behind the welcome ceremony, Yang Yuefan himself disappeared before the paladins arrived, along with Carpenter, who had a broken arm and a finger.

In the retribution regiment of Nuoda, only Xu Yichen himself was left, and Ji Wanbing and Li Yanlong, who had recruits to take and couldn't leave.

Even Alex was taken away by his half-elf afterlife and went to explore his way in the Black Forest.

The Holy Warrior Dale has heard a lot of news of the 'Retribution Band' in Anthony Grand Port, whether it is their mysterious demon hunter leader or the members of the group below with their own characteristics, they all have their own stories.

These stories are not rumors on the streets, they are well-documented facts within the church.

For example, two fledgling professionals single-handedly rushed into the Chaos Rift, not only killing the cultists, but also chopping a Nurgle vanguard into meat sauce.

For example, while solving the Chaos Advent problem for the second time in a month, he also taught a whole boatload of battle nuns.

If it weren't for the signature of the local church on every document, Dale wouldn't have believed it.

What's more, this young apprentice not only progressed at an extraordinary speed, but also had wisdom beyond ordinary people, and it seemed that even the local lord had a handle in the other party's hands.

Dale came this time with the purpose of observing the other party, and this goal of growing at an unusual rate made some people in the church suspicious.

If Lord Richard was to vouch for the other party's purity, and the blood of this Seris did contain a trace of power that was diametrically opposed to Chaos, it would not be Dale who would have done it this time.
