Not long after returning from Mars, the Pope fell ill. The bond with the Holy Light was severed, the Heart Mirror gradually became cloudy, and the Holy Light shield on his body no longer emitted a seven-colored light.

At first, I thought it was tiredness, but then my condition worsened little by little. Even the best Holy Light nurses have no choice, and the federal medical experts hired are even more helpless.

The holy light of the Pope's decades of piety gradually drifted away, and the holy light emanating from his body was quiet and peaceful, with a hint of weirdness.

There was a crack in the undoubted light, and there was always a demonic voice in his head; "Cast out the Light! The Void gives you freedom! Abandon the Light! The void gives you power! Spit on the Light! The void gives you light! The Pope gradually closed his heart.

"You are Tiemu and Tuoba Hai", the Pope sat cross-legged on the top of the Alps, absorbing the morning glow of the early morning, and glanced with a vacant and indifferent gaze at the young man who was carrying the laurel order at the foot of the steps. "You're doing well in Silloradias! Is there any interest in joining the Holy Light Cross. ”

"Thank you, Pope! Temu has no intention of joining the Church of Light! Temu bowed and said loudly.

"Oh, in your current situation, joining the Union Army will be targeted at every turn. The Legion of Light is a military organization independent of the Federation, the sergeants are brothers and sisters, and there is no room for internal strife, and you will be much freer here. Moreover, the Holy Light Legion is a mercenary of the Holy Light Church, and everyone has the autonomy to decide whether to join the Church or not," the Pope said in a calm voice as if he guessed that the young man in front of him would refuse.

"Because he is a mercenary, he attaches more importance to his personal ability, and his outstanding performance can also be promoted to a knighthood, and his status and treatment are no worse than those of the Guardian Knights who focus on serving the Holy Light."

"Your Excellency, you should know that I and the Martian Governor's Mansion are incompatible. If I join the Legion of Light, will my family be sheltered?" Timber looked up at the Pope.

"Temu-kun, the sergeant of the Holy Light Legion is like a brother, and from the moment he joins as a sergeant, he will be protected by the Holy Light Order.

If you can climb the pyramid of the Holy Light Legion, then you will have all the combat power of the Holy Light Legion in addition to the protection of the Holy Light Bishopric, which is obviously much more important than me, which can compete with the Martian Governor's Mansion, the Earth Guardian Mansion, and the Wooden Acropolis Lord's Mansion to a real extent." The Pope slowly stood up, covered his mouth with his hand and coughed in a low voice, "How is it?" ”

"Excellent! Temu and Tuoba Hai accepted the Pope's advice and joined the Holy Light Crusade. Temu lifted his hands and knelt on one knee.

"Excellent! Awarded to Tiemu and Tuoba Sea First Class Sergeants, belonging to the First Interstellar Glory Regiment of the Holy Light Cross Regiment. This is the ribbon, the sergeant's badge". The Pope turned to take the squire's ribbon, and the sergeant's badge was put on Temu.

"Thank you, Pope!" Teki bowed his head and bowed.

"Sergeant Ironwood, please get up, today you are our brother of the Holy Light, you will go to the M base to report after three days of repairs at the headquarters, during which you can ask all questions to the Guardian Knight Bruce" The Pope stretched out his hand to bless Ironwood, and then pointed to the knight next to him, and left under the escort of the Guardian Knight.

"Thank you for the papal grace!" Temu stood up and looked at the knight next to him.

A burly man with a two-headed battle axe and a yellow lion on his back was also watching Temu.

"I'm Tiemu and Tuoba Hai, please advise!" Teki took a few quick steps and held out his hand to the burly man with long blond hair.

"I'm Bruce, von Bismarck, and now part of the Crusader Knights of the Heart of Honor, you can call me Bruce," the blonde man nodded at the golden lion, stretched out his broad hand, and said in an angry voice.

"Well, hello, Bruce. They all ride war horses, how can you ride a lion. The two walked side by side, and Ironwood looked at Bruce on his horse.

"Oh, yes. This is the 'little lion' that the Pope gave me, and he said that as a guardian knight, you must be as loyal and brave as a lion". Bruce looked up into the distance.

Three days later, Temu rushed to Base M aboard the Pride of Light. At the forward base of the Holy Light Legion M, Temu fought bravely and made many achievements. The ranks range from sergeant, sergeant major, senior sergeant major, to knight, knight lieutenant, knight captain, and then to guard knight.

Until Archbishop Vodal and Klein were transferred to the prefect of Base M, the Marshal of the First Star Knights.

Archbishop Wodar and Klein stood on the deck of the cathedral battleship, looking at the abyss in the distance, the abyss was constantly emitting black mist, and the archbishop looked at the monks standing on the deck to maintain the shield of the Holy Light, and walked towards the battery. "Dididi", the light in the command room flashed wildly.

Tiemu wore a knight's armor and galloped with the laurel order on his back. "Back to the archbishop! The black energy of the Fear of Silence Rift has skyrocketed! It is recommended to activate the Holy Light Demon Annihilator! ”

"Okay, Guardian Knight!" The archbishop walked to the center of the battleship with the Holy Light Cross battle flag in hand.

"Holy Light Demon Annihilator Cannon open!" Teki took the cross and ran back to the battery, waving it at the knight who was wielding the cannon.

More than a dozen warships, the giant cannons slowly turned, and the muzzles of the guns that gathered the holy light focused towards the abyss.

"Ready! ...... Launch! "Tiemu held aloft the Holy Light Cross Battle Banner, the light shield surrounded by dozens of light cannons was unlocked, and the cannonballs with golden furious energy roared through the triangular convex mirror, and the furious light focused along the embossed mirror, and then transformed the black mist that rolled into the abyss through coordinated transformation.

Like hot water melting ice, the scorching light pierced through the black fog and lit up the darkness. The churning black mist "snorted" and gradually calmed down.

"Who is it?! Who disturbed the dreams of this queen! Ahhh A sharp demonic murmur came from the abyss, and the black mist that had calmed down began to shake violently again.

The Holy Light crusader sergeant on board covered his ears tightly with his hands, blood dripping down his ears.

"Strengthen sound shielding!" Archbishop Vodal and Klein stretched out their hands to the sky and chanted, shouting loudly.

The rickety monks, with the blessing of the archbishop, stabilized. Stretch your hands to the sky and activate the Silence: Holy Light Blessing Technique, and recite the hymn of the Holy Light aloud.

Tiemu held the Crusader banner in his left hand and drew the laurel order with his right hand. "The Holy Light Cross Legion listens to orders! Forge a Soul Defense Formation! ”

On the flagship, the Holy Light Crusader warriors rose up on the ground, with iron and wood as the center, interlocking layer by layer, forming a pentagram battle array. The rest of the ships formed a pentagram battle formation with the supreme commander of their respective fleets.

In the abyss, the demon's voice gradually fell.

Ironwood waves the Holy Light Crusade Banner on the flagship deck! "Punishment: Holy Light Judgment!"

The crusaders who formed the pentagram battle array, their left hand dancing with a seal, and their right hand holding a meteorite high. The light gradually condensed on the meteors, and the light gathered more and more, and as the ironwood battle flag slashed across Huashan, the crusader meteors on more than a dozen warships rowed towards the abyss, flashing with the light of a thunderstorm and rushing towards the abyss.

"Ahhhh These scumbags out there! Hurry up, slaves, get moving, hurry up and sacrifice! .... Right! ... Kill them! ... I'm going to break through the barriers.. I'm going to torture you! ... Hahahaha" There was a roar from beneath the raging black fog in the abyss.

The black fog gathered more and more, and blood rolled in the pitch-black mist.

Temu ran to the archbishop with the Crusader banner in hand. "Archbishop Demon Riot! The plane barrier is already fragile, and I am willing to lead the death squad through the soul tower to hunt demons! ”

"Ironwood Warriors! If the plane is opened, the Federation will face a death crisis! The Soul Tower can be opened at any time! It's just that the death squad has no way to survive, and it is cherished! "The archbishop took the crusade banner and was saddened." The Soul Tower supports up to thirty people to enter, so you can choose someone. "Hold Timber's shoulder with his hand.

"Warriors of the Holy Light Crusade! It doesn't matter where you're from the Federation? The Holy Light Cross will always be your home! Today, the barrier of the Fear Rift plane is facing destruction, if the two planes are opened, the bloodthirsty demons from the void will go on a rampage, and our families, our loved ones will face a life-and-death crisis! The Federation is at stake! With tears in his eyes, he looked around at all the ships, at the crusaders. For our parents, siblings, wives, sons! Now we need a death squad to go deep into the Soul Tower to fight the demons! I'd rather die standing than live on my knees! I need you! ”

"I'd rather die than live!" Crusader warriors with meteors in their hands, stamped on battleships and let out an earth-shattering roar.

"Good! The following soldiers whose names are called, please come forward! Temu looked around at the warrior and raised his hand in salute!

"Song Xiaoyu!" Tiemu looked at the Interstarmarines comprehensive ability table at the Accelink M base.

"Here!" An Asian woman with short black hair and a light reactive combo armor stepped forward.

Tiemu nodded at the female soldier and flipped the light, "Andre, Kagao!" ”

"Here!" A tall, heavily dressed warrior and carrying an ion-core reactive armored meteorite cannon in both hands squeezed through the crowd.

Ironwood nodded, flipping the light. "Tommy, Joe, Alexander!"

"Here!" A tall girl with a tactical backpack on her back, a medical aid suit, and inky eyes walked out.

"Very well, next is Dora and Maebus," Timber shouted as he flipped to the next page of Vision.

"Here!" A gnome wearing black tactical leather armor, a headband with an anti-stealth ion shield generator, and wielding a twin blades stepped out.

.......

"High Molda", Temu turned to the last page of Guangxuan and pronounced the last name.

"Here!" A middle-aged uncle with an ion imaging laser guiding rapid-fire anti-materiel sniper in both hands walked out.

"The 29 sergeants whose names are mentioned above will quickly assemble in the flagship cabin No. 3!" Ironwood shouted loudly, turning to look at the abyss of black mist that rolled like boiling hot water.

Moments later, the Flagship No. 3 cabin was crowded with well-dressed soldiers.

Archbishop Vodal and Klein walked in, silently reaching out to the Death Squad warriors to release the Holy Light Protection Spell one by one.

"The black mist in the abyss is corrosive and confusing, if you want to attack, you must have items that resist charm or rely on a strong spiritual will to hold your breath and concentrate, and continuously release holy light combat skills or attack magic!" Teki looked at the twenty-nine warriors standing in front of him. "You all have your own strengths, your attack magic or combat skills are outstanding, and your mental will is also very strong. No voices in battle, all actions in sign language! Operation Codename: Daystar! ”

"This is the Holy Light Orb distributed by our Holy Light Headquarters, which can resist the demonic charm to a certain extent!" After releasing the blessing, Archbishop Vodal and Klein reached out and summoned one of his attendants, and from the jade plate he carried, he took out pearl rings the size of his thumb and shimmered silver, and put them on each warrior.

"Blessing you saints with the Light, for the Light! For glory! "The archbishop stood on the flagship and blessed the daredevils sitting in the shuttle-shaped life-saving airships!

The airship carrying thirty sergeants left the cathedral battleship at high speed and flew into the endless abyss of black mist.
