Chapter Ninety-Four: The Scourge (2) Attack
760 years after the Holy Light Cross Calendar, the government of the Holy Arathas Empire began to unify and popularize the 30-year compulsory education of the Yahweh faith throughout the territory, and launched the initial stage of the Great Literacy Campaign for the Holy Believers.
Native folks in the local Yahweh Church night school in a remote galaxy far from the Imperial capital of Star Azeroth would curiously ask their missionary priest a question that would seem very naïve to us now.
"Is the divine power bestowed upon us by the Supreme God the miraculous light that looks purple-gold, gold, and white?"
"Of course not!"
At this time, the pastor of our Holy Light Cross Sect would seriously close the canon in his hand and answer kindly.
"Folks!"
"No matter what color the light is, it comes from the power that the one God, Yahweh, has given us."
"But God's divine power is more than just outward light!"
"And ······"
—Excerpt from "Missionary and Prayer"
Holy Crucifixion Cardinal Melras Tulayan Holy Writings
The vast beam of Yahweh Holy Light that fell from the sky and was unleashed by all the priests of the Legion of Light on the land of Yahweh pierced through the thick and gloomy dark canopy above the Lich King's head without hindrance.
Then, this divine light, which was brilliant to the extreme, was backed by the fiery red sun in the sky after the dark canopy was opened.
Towards the location of the sunwell, it bombarded violently!
This is the Great Judgment of Light from the Holy Araso Empire!
This is a sacred blow that transcends boundaries by tens of thousands of Yahweh priests on the hills, led by Pope St. Paul, who have gathered all the forces of all people!
This huge divine power, pouring down with a might, even caused the sea surface of the sea around Quel'Salas Island to sink deep into the seabed, forming a spectacle that appeared in a short period of time, surrounding Quel'Salas Island in a radius of more than ten kilometers.
The Red Fruit manifests the violence and supreme majesty of the Legion of Light, the Holy Light Cross Church!
This divine attack that suddenly came from dozens of kilometers away from Silver Moon City, beyond the visual range, can be said to be very successful!
Except for the Lich King Nao Zu, with his demigod-level powerful spiritual power, he faintly felt something bad before the ice crystal sunglasses appeared in the sky, and no other high-level undead creature discovered this "appetizer" of the Holy Light Cross Priesthood before the attack arrived.
"Boom!"
With the advent of the Judgment of Light, everything within a radius of nearly a thousand meters around the entire Sun Well was shrouded in endless light.
"No!"
"That's, that's ······"
Except for the most powerful Great Lich who reacted after the arrival of the Divine Light Pillar and struggled frantically for a few seconds.
There are more than 70 people around the Sunwell, the Abomination, the Great Lich, and the Death Knight, and they are wiped out in an instant under the attack of the Judgment of Light!
Even their corpses and bones were not left, everything was completely purified into gray-white powder by the endless divine power, and after the pillar of light descended, even the ground was slightly filled with divine power around the Sun Well building, flying powerlessly and drifting.
The pillar of light descended for nearly ten seconds, when all the light had died out with time.
In the soul fire of tens of millions of undead creatures around Silvermoon City, unexpectedly, the order of the Lich King Nao Zu sounded in an extremely angry moment.
"Damn the Light!"
"Damn humans!"
"My warriors! My minions! ”
If it weren't for the fact that after the pillar of light descended, the Lich King Nao Zu was the first to react, and immediately attracted the endless huge evil energy in the sun well, which was not far away from it, and arranged a strong enough evil energy shield to withstand the remaining high-level undead around it, protecting most of the power from the divine pillar of light in the sky.
Possibly, the current Scourge Legion will not only be wiped out by more than 70 high-level undead.
Instead, in addition to the dozen or so Great Lich Demons who stayed in Silvermoon City, there was only one Light Pole Commander left, the Lich King Nao Zu!
How does this not make the self-proclaimed invincible Lich King angry?
It is also limited by the limitations of the methods of warfare in this era, and the former orc great shaman Nao Zu, who was once not highly civilized, never imagined that in Azeroth, a "small place" that has not yet stepped out of its cradle, it will encounter this kind of over-the-horizon divine strike at the speed of light in the inheritance and memory of the members of the Burning Legion.
His Majesty the Lich King, who has been slapped in the face from the complacency of having destroyed the elven race, and who has suffered heavy losses, now wants revenge!
"Attack!"
"Break those humans, those damned users of the Holy Light, to pieces!"
The sharp spiritual roar of Nao Zu caused every undead in the Eternal Song Forest to raise their heads suddenly, and their black skulls turned, looking coldly at the hill not far from Silvermoon City, emitting divine beams······
————————————————————————————————————————
"Warriors of Nirub, open the hole in the hill for our faithful!"
A large, hideous "beetle", speaking the lingua franca of Azeroth, emanated from the inside of the hill that had just been emitted by the divine beam.
Around the hills, a purple-gold impersonation barrier of adjudication holy power that is very similar to the dark undead power is slowly dissipating, and after the earth-shattering divine beam was sent out just now, the location here has been exposed, and simple hiding has no effect, and the upper echelons of the empire and the church have also made up their minds to face the natural calamity!
"It's time to make those infidels pay!"
"For the glory of Divine Yahweh!"
This Beetle Paladin who looks like a villain, but is actually filled with white-gold Judgment Light, and even has a conspicuous cross printed on his carapace, is the first race of escapees from the Lich King to be subdued on the glacier continent of Northrend after he came to the planet Azeroth, and the original historical Crypt Lord Anubrekan.
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
"For the glory of Yahweh!"
Hundreds of former spider kingdom people who were the same as the crypt lord Anubrekan, but were a little smaller in size, and the big insects with ten necklaces hanging from their necks raised their two sharp front claws in unison.
Different from the fate of the entire race in history, under the influence of the great butterfly of the Messiah, these great insects who have gone through all kinds of hardships and pains and wandered across the sea to the continent of the Eastern Kingdom have been inspired by the Sea Fishman Priest of the Holy Light Cross Sect in the process of crossing the sea and become the faithful people of Yahweh.
And in this battle against the natural disaster, because of their race's unique and exceptionally excellent burrowing skills, they have been highly used by the Empire and the church's higher-ups.
Unlike the Priests who had sneaked up to the top of the hill in advance under the cover of the Judgment Templars to jointly emit divine beams, there were only tens of thousands of clergy.
The elite army of the Imperial Legion of Light, numbering up to two million, could not ambush over the hill like these clerics, but after teleporting to the vicinity of Silvermoon City, they entered the giant cave dug underground by the Nirub spiders.
The large insects, with their sturdy, barbed carapaces and a pair of shiny earthy yellow forelimbs, dug into the ground, and the exit of the cave was quickly formed directly below the hill.
And then.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Accompanied by the roar of steam from far and near, the steam tank, weighing dozens of tons and several meters high, with a bright Holy Cross logo printed on the deck, under the command of a dwarf tanker, galloped out of the hole, crushing the bushes and dead branches around the hill with extreme violence, artificially creating a huge open space.
Followed by.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Armed with third-generation spears full of sacred patterns and wearing crimson crusade leather armor, the elite soldiers of the Legion of Light walked out of the huge cavern inside the hill with a uniform marching step.
The clerics on the side of the judgment canceled the hiding, and every Legion of Light soldier who appeared carried a divine power that disgusted the surrounding undead.
Of course, the many undead who were ubiquitous around Silvermoon City discovered the movement here as soon as the soldiers of the Legion of Light appeared on a large scale, and coupled with the attack order issued by the Lich King Naozu in their soul fire just now, countless undead roared and rushed wildly in the direction of the hills······
