Chapter 178: Slaughter
Meles naturally understood the relationship, she had always been wise, so she just nodded lightly and didn't say anything more. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā
Shepard saw that Apche below was arranging for the kobold spirits to live in the forest on the side of the valley, so he didn't care how he arranged his own disciples, turned around and flew to the top of the thirty-three-story river valley, looking at the continuous palace complex from top to bottom, his disciples had already adapted to the palace and found their own duties.
These souls were surprised and delighted at the moment, and finally got rid of the terrible environment of the underworld, but the souls of ordinary people are not strong enough, even if there are no accidents, they cannot resist the radiation of the Heavenly Mountain and the Kingdom of God, and after a few decades, they will be transformed into pure Qi mergers, although they can be with the gods, but after hundreds of years, the souls will not be able to support their existence and completely integrate into the Kingdom of God.
Even so, it is a thousand times better than their descent into the underworld, and it is equivalent to being able to live peacefully after death, which is the reward given to them by the gods, and all good gods and righteous gods will stick to this.
Shepard tilted his head slightly, and several groups of souls flew from the group of kobolds, these were all believers in the Great Sword of Light, and he bowed slightly, and these groups of souls also belonged to the palace group.
Melers followed Shepard to the palace complex, in the largest, most gorgeous and magnificent hall, three thrones rose from the ground, Shepard walked up to the highest one, stretched out his hand to signal Melers to walk up to the other one, and after the two gods sat down, he smiled and said: "In the future, if there are new members of the god system, add seats here, and now that the kingdom of God has been established, it is best for the two of you to stay in the kingdom of God, and when you reach the weak divine power, you can shape a clone to walk on your behalf." ”
Melers slightly possessed to accept, and Shepard continued with a smile: "Not only you, but I will also stay here, now I have become a medium divine power, with the Kingdom of God as a support, even if I make a clone, I will not be weak, but I am still limited in number." ”
Shepard was relaxed and calm, and his qi became more and more calm, which made Meler's heart secretly touched, and he said casually: "But since I am in the kingdom of God, I still need to leave a clone to rule the kingdom, and this second clone, let's do this." ”
Meleth smiled: "Then the Lord God, please rest assured to make a clone here, I'll go out for a spin first." ”
Shepard knew that this was Mereth trying to create a quiet environment for herself, and when the goddess walked out of the room, the tall door closed softly.
……
The first doppelganger far away in the Old Continent shook slightly, and his strength that had not been improved for a long time crossed the epic level, but unlike the ordinary epic, it was the fusion of spiritual power and **, his body was originally shaped by divine power, and he crossed the barrier, which made his body more refined in the subtleties.
And on the continent of Draenor, when the three gods left, the divine power enveloped the main temple, and everyone knelt down to pray for blessings, and no one noticed the disappearance of His Majesty the Pope, until the new second doppelganger descended on the main plane, and finally someone came to ask for the Pope.
"Your Majesty." Coming in was Priest Draco, who used to be Othello's lieutenant and had finally been promoted to the position of Bishop, Shepard knew that he had been able to unleash the fourth-level divine magic and enter the rank of Intermediate Priest just by looking at him.
There are too many priests in the kingdom who have been suppressed and promoted...... Fortunately, I have finally reached the middle divine power, and the strength of the priests will enter a blowout period, depending on who is talented and who is stupid. ’
Shepard sighed subtly in his heart, and smiled peacefully on the surface: "Bishop Drake, what is the matter with you coming to ask for a meeting?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, this is the new communiqué of the Cardinal Hall, which Cardinal Othello has ordered me to send to you." Draco replied holding up the communiqué in his hand.
"Oh, bring it."
The attendant took the communiqué from Drake's hand and handed it to Shepard, who took it and read it for a while, and when he had finished reading it, he closed it, and after a little contemplation, he said, "I see, you go back and convey my order to the three cardinals." ”
"First, focus on supervising several places in the kingdom where anomalies are found, and I will allow them to transfer a group of knights to strengthen the vigilance force, and let them report the specific number to me after consultation."
"Second, I agree to the opening of a trade point, but it still needs to be presided over by someone from the church, Klut has disappointed me too much to use him again, didn't the eldest son of Baron Nockham pass the joint examination? It's called Henriel, right? Just let him go, the young people need to sharpen and sharpen, let the Ruth tribe come forward to set up a trade point, after all, their north is still a war zone, and the trade point is set up in the west, those rats of the thieves' union have been tossing for a long time, and when the trade point is opened, I see if they will be honest. ”
"Third, the scale of the exchange point in Longdaur is getting bigger and bigger, after the Holy Maiden Millie followed Freeman to the Kingdom of Macre, the priest who stayed to preside over was no longer enough to deal with it, so you can go to Longdaur to preside, and then inform the Knight of Artha to come back."
Draco had been remembering it by heart, and when he heard the last sentence, he was suddenly stunned, and immediately overjoyed thanks: "Yes, Your Majesty!" Thank you for your grace! ”
Shepard smiled when he heard this, and said lightly: "As long as you serve my lord with a pious heart, I will not forget your merits and hard work, you go back and pass the word, and the official official documents will be written by the Secretariat and submitted to the cardinals." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Draco suppressed his delight, bowed respectfully, and exited the room.
When he left the room, Shepard said to himself: "Artha has been honing over there for so long, and I don't know how many elven combat skills he has learned, but with his talent, it should be about the same, and it's okay, when he comes back, he will also teach him the swordsmanship of the dark elves, I hope he can break through as soon as possible, and when the kingdom has two epics, I will be more relaxed in worldly things." ”
"As for the trade point, heh, I'm afraid the people of the expeditionary force don't want to fight, and the smuggling team of the thieves' union has not given up after I broke the dog's paw so many times, so I will simply open a trade point to trade, if I don't know what to do, ...... again."
A sneer appeared on Shepard's face, although the main body has ascended to the kingdom of God, his foundation is still in the main plane, and this part still needs to be taken care of carefully, so as not to get out of control, and he has no objection to opening the trade market.
Many specialties on the continent of Draenor, and even some very ordinary things, have long disappeared in the human society of the old continent for many years, so smuggling these things is completely profitable, as long as the trade continues, the fighting spirit of the expeditionary force will become weaker and weaker, although the Church of the Gods is the leader, but without those greedy adventurers to be cannon fodder, the church is reluctant to use their own hole cards as consumables.
The will of the continent suddenly passed on an idea, and Shepard frowned slightly, and said in surprise: "Sacrifice? Could it be the demon? How can it be...... Isn't the Church of the Gods going to deal with it? ”
Unable to think of a reason for the expeditionary force to indulge the demons, Shepard could only put aside his doubts for the time being, anyway, it was not his strength that was lost.
……
Expeditionary Force, Beast Hunter Station.
This large area of the station is very deserted, in fact, because the mages are doing experiments in their respective rooms, and the magic array that can block snooping and isolate sound is naturally a necessary preparation, so it makes this station seem deserted.
In fact, out of the station, the adventurers outside the door are very noisy, and there are constantly people communicating with the assistants who work and handle tasks for the mages, handing over the tasks they have completed, and then going to the task board for the next new mission.
The mage's things are naturally much better than the adventurer organization, the task directory is displayed on the wooden board in the form of a projection, as long as someone takes the task, that one will disappear immediately, and the new task and the old task, and the task that someone has failed are displayed in three colors, allowing many adventurers to choose freely.
The table of contents flashed and refreshed the task, and the two failed missions were immediately marked with color, but at the top of the taskbar, there was a hunt mission.
[Obtain the corpse of the demon that appeared in the east, whether you live or die.] 】
[Note: Please do not consider it if you have not reached the epic level]
"Phew." Looking at the amazing reward behind the task, an old spicy adventurer who looked very slippery spat out thick phlegm, and complained with envy and jealousy: "These magic masters are really rich, and now who doesn't know that the demon is a projection of a Barlow Flame Demon, even if it is an epic hunt, it will be suspended!" ”
There were also acquaintances who were looking at the taskbar next to him, who heard this complaint, turned his head and smiled: "Rial, what's the matter?" Are you interested? ”
Rial snorted: "I don't want to look for death, no matter how weak it is, it is also a projection of a great demon, besides, I heard that several paladins have already gone to find that demon." ”
"I've heard about it too," said most of the adventurers, who were braggath-loving, and one joked, "Not only that, but I heard that the demon was seriously injured, and now is the time when it is at its weakest, so those paladins want to try their luck, if anyone can kill it, I don't know how much divine grace can be added!" ”
The adventurers were boasting outside, and in the station, the summoning master, [Otherworldly Emissary] Neros Tervania, the actual leader of this mage team, was sitting around with the strongest members of the team such as Hasta, Manimark, and Melficente, quietly looking at the table in front of them.
On the table, a video crystal is playing a scene not long ago, and the wide-angle and bird's-eye view shooting method makes the image slightly lacking in fineness, but it is very suitable in terms of picture sense, which makes people very comfortable to watch.
The scene filmed in it is located outside a town established by an expeditionary force, and the combination of adventurers and slaves makes this town have a kind of alternative prosperity, but at the moment the town is a panicked scene, because outside the town, the tall and hideous demon has come here, and with a wave of his hand, he released a demonic talent of spells, and a huge fireball bombarded the town's buildings, plunging the unlucky building into a sea of fire.
Even if it was a silent video, the few onlookers seemed to be able to hear the terrible screams and cries for help ringing in their ears, but they did not waver, not only because this had happened, but also because the mages were originally such a group of cold-blooded and indifferent to all outsiders, and it was precisely because of this that their reputation among the common people was so bad, countless people lived by the mages, but none of them would be grateful to them.
The adventurers in the town organized a counterattack, but they were easily defeated by the demons, ten, thirty, fifty, hundred......
There are fewer and fewer adventurers who dare to resist the demon, and the strongest one is holding a giant sword, and even splits the spell released by the demon and rushes to the demon's feet, but the demon just easily lifts his foot and steps on it, and the adventurer who is suspected of having high-level strength becomes a mess of rotten meat.
The will to resist finally crumbled, and all the survivors, whether adventurers or slaves, were desperate and desperate to escape from the town, the demon laughed wildly and chased after all the life in front of it, its claws could easily tear steel apart, its tall size allowed it to crush the rebels to death with its feet, and occasionally grabbed two or three people and stuffed them into its huge and hideous mouth, munching flesh and soul together, listening to screams and the sound of flesh and bones breaking and swallowing its lower abdomen.
It was only in front of the two sanctuaries in the town that its footsteps were slightly delayed, this town has a small population, and the strength of the church is not strong, but it is only two sanctuaries, and the presiding priest is only at the intermediate level, even if they know that it is useless to escape, and firmly contain some believers to hide in the sanctuary, but in their hearts they actually have no hope of stopping the demons.
When the demons slain, the sulfur aura of desecration seemed to anger the will of the gods, and the power of the sanctuary increased greatly, once pushing the rank of the presiding priest to a high level, but any power takes time to adapt, where is the opportunity for those priests who have suddenly risen to the top to adapt, if they are replaced by a few holy warriors or church professionals, there is still hope.
The collision of divine power and the power of depraved evil made the demon roar angrily, and the skin that could not be corroded by acid became tattered under the erosion of divine power, but the demon stretched out its claws that were harder and more terrible than the dragon's claws, and after a stalemate of more than ten minutes, he grabbed the shield of the temple, and cut open the chest and abdomen of the priest who was standing at the front, and the hot heart was wrapped in evil power and sent into the demon's mouth, it seemed that the size of the heart could not be tasted by it at all, but the demon's face showed an intoxicated look.
Because it does not eat the heart, but the despair of the people, the wrath of the gods, and the resentment of the priests.
The broken sanctuary could no longer shelter anyone, and the trembling humans hiding inside were easily slaughtered by the demons, and when it went to the next sanctuary, the presiding priest was so overwhelmed that he could not even muster up the courage to pray for the power of the gods, and the weak sanctuary barrier was broken at the touch of a button, and no matter how great the wrath of the gods was, his cowardly priest could only let him down.
The sanctuary was destroyed so easily that the demon was momentarily stunned, presumably wondering what he was going to do next, as flames and smoke drifted over half of the town, and a turning point seemed to be imminent, as several paladins stepped into the image at the edge of the video......
