Chapter 205: The Power of the Scythe of Urban
Xiao Yao and Yin Que Shen Ying's side fell into a bitter battle, the demon launched a suicidal attack as if he didn't want to die, the four people, including Peter, each of them had demon corpses piled up under their feet, and the whole block was full of demon corpses, blood infected the entire block, and even they didn't know how many demons they had killed.
This group of demons was all eliminated under the separation and culling of several people, and at this time, the four of them gathered together.
"No more! I'm exhausted! Yin Que sat down on the ground, tired and sweating profusely.
"Not really! This page is so torturous! Shen Ying was also sweating.
Not only the two of them, but the other two are the same, the four of them have killed nearly a thousand demons for a while, and the strong people will not be able to stand it, so they don't take advantage of the gap when there are no demons A few people hurriedly rested for a while.
"I didn't expect you three boys to be really strong, much more powerful than me back then." Peter didn't care about any image, and sat on the ground like Xiao Yao.
"That's, you don't look at who we are!" Yin Que didn't know how to be modest at all, so he climbed up the pole.
"Hehe, I like your personality very much." Peter laughed, "By the way, what is the origin of your sword?" Even more powerful than the Holy See's artifact? Peter asked curiously.
"Oh, you said Xiaohuo, he is a magic weapon of my master's sect, and he is also a top-level magic weapon in my sect." Yin Que patted the body of the Burning Heart Sword, and at this moment, the flame of the Burning Heart Sword had already been extinguished, turning into a jet-black wooden sword.
"Ritual weapons? Is it like a spiritual artifact? Peter said.
"Hmm...... Pretty much. Yin Que didn't know what a spiritual weapon was, but it should be similar to a magic weapon, so he nodded.
"Oh." Peter nodded, "Boy, how long has the Scythe of Urban been in your hands?" Peter looked at Shen Ying and asked with a serious expression.
"It's been more than twenty years." Shen Ying did not hide it and answered Peter truthfully.
"More than twenty years?" Peter glanced at the Scythe of Urban, "It has disappeared from the Holy See for nearly fifty years, but I didn't expect it to reappear in the Holy See today, it's really providential." Peter laughed.
"Do you know the origin of the Scythe of Urban?" Peter asked Shen Ying.
Shen Ying nodded, his master had told him the origin of the Scythe of Urban before, and he was also very curious about how Pope Urban II at that time could have such an evil weapon.
"Now that you know where it came from, do you know why the power of the Scythe of Urban is so evil?" Peter then asked.
"I don't know about this, my master didn't tell me." Shen Ying shook his head.
The curiosity of Xiao Yao and Yin Que on the side was also aroused, and they also wanted to know what was going on with the power of the Urban Scythe.
Peter then said leisurely, "It all started when Urban II was alive, and I also happened to find a biography that recorded it...... Peter began slowly.
It goes back to the reign of Urban II, when he launched a crusade to reclaim the holy city and all the cities along its way, when the world was so dark that the demons traveled back and forth between earth and hell like a garden, and the Holy See sent troops to fight against them.
At the beginning, the victory of the Holy See, because of the surprise of the demons, coupled with the power of the Holy Light, was born to restrain the demons, so the demons were defeated and retreated, so that the army of the Holy See fought all the way to Jerusalem with few casualties.
But when it came time to attack Jerusalem, there was a sudden change, and suddenly a large number of demons poured out from around their camp, and these demons were so strong that the army of the Holy See could not resist them at all, and it was only then that people found out that they had fallen into the devil's tricks, and the demons at first just put some weak demons in each city along the way, so that the Holy See could successfully take those cities, so that the Holy See thought that the demons were not strong, to paralyze them, and let them relax their vigilance, But the real killer was in Jerusalem.
The Crusaders were isolated at this time, and the support of the Holy See could not come in at all, because the demons had surrounded them, and now the Holy See could only storm and take Jerusalem at all costs, and then build defenses in the city to resist the demons.
But the siege of the city was easier said than done, not to mention the height of the walls of Jerusalem at that time, and the demons in the city alone could not be completely destroyed by these crusaders.
Urban II watched his army change from one heart to one heart overnight, and the heart was unstable, and his heart was extremely bitter.
People are like this, they are too easily swayed, too easily infected by the surrounding environment and the current situation, at the moment they have fallen into the encirclement of demons, unless a miracle occurs, their lives will not belong to them.
In such desperate moments, all they could do seemed to be prayed, and they didn't even have the courage to take up their weapons.
Urban II realized this, and if this continued, the entire crusader army would collapse before the demons could attack, and he had to think of a way to break out.
At last he thought of a solution, and he immediately called a meeting of the bishops and the consuls, and expressed his thoughts, which were unanimously opposed as soon as they were spoken, and no one agreed.
But in the end, the bishops and the rulers agreed, because there was nothing they could do, and the crusade would perish, and Urban II's solution was to say that in order to defeat the demon, it was necessary to merge with the demon, or even become a demon.
So he began to pray to Lucifer, and Lucifer answered him, but on condition that it was his soul.
Urban II looked at his tens of thousands of crusaders, if all of them were buried here, it would be a fundamental injury to the Holy See, so he had to protect these people, so he resolutely agreed to Lucifer's request, and Lucifer also fulfilled his promise and gave Urban II the power of darkness, he became the first person in the Holy See to have two attributes, light and dark, and Lucifer also turned Urban's sickle into a real artifact, an artifact that can have both light and darkness.
"In the end, Urban II led the Crusaders to take Jerusalem, he killed all the demons with the divine power of the Scythe of Urban, and for a time the whole Jerusalem was full of blood and corpses, the Crusaders won, the Holy See won, but Urban II was taken away by Lucifer, and the Holy See announced that Urban II died of illness, and the Scythe of Urban was brought and passed down, although each generation could not exert his power, but this has become a symbol, Only Templar commanders could possess the Scythe of Urban. Peter went on and on, detailing the source of the dark power in Urban's Scythe.
"So this scythe of Urban is only a masterpiece of Lucifer?" Shen Ying's expression was a little weird, a weapon blessed by the number one demon of hell would actually be circulated in the Holy See, wouldn't this go against the purpose of the Holy See? Shen Ying didn't ask, and he wouldn't ask. ……
