Chapter 282: Expeditionary Storm (1)
Emerald Filipino, the headquarters of the Papal Chamber.
In the Pope's office, a white-clad Komutili sits behind a desk and reads documents without raising her head, wearing black-rimmed glasses and holding an electronic light pen in her hand.
She read every document very carefully, and only signed her name after confirming that it was correct. She never found it unproductive, because she read at a fast, unimaginably fast speed.
Outside the Papal Hall, the armed convoy stopped in front of the gate, and before the captain of the guard could personally open the door, an old man had already taken the lead in pushing the door towards the gate of the Pope Hall.
All the clergy and nobles along the way bowed down and saluted when they saw this old man, and their attitude was very respectful, because he was the head of the Pope's Chamber, Archbishop Wuyun, the most special of all the archbishops, and he served the Pope himself.
Of course, some people say that the position of the Pope's head looks glamorous, but in fact it is just a dog at the feet of the Pope.
It was night in Jerusalem, and fifty streets near the Papal Hall were under curfew at nine o'clock.
In the darkness of the night, the mechs that activated the optical camouflage and the Inquisition silently walked through the streets, and the two Templars sat in the headquarters of the Papal Chamber.
Wu Yun walked through the passages with a solemn expression, passing through the last door, and after the Templar nodded, he walked into the top floor of the country.
"Holy Seat," Wu Yun saluted, "there is something important that needs to be opened in person." ”
"What's wrong?" The Pope didn't raise his head, "You said the same thing about the dragon sparrow last time, but it turned out that people made a big fuss." ”
"If there's something, let's talk about it." The Pope put down the pen in his hand and raised his head.
"Norton, hold on." Wu Yun said softly.
The Pope's brow furrowed slightly, "This...... I really didn't expect that General Ji was really capable. ”
"Even the military headquarters and the high command can't believe this," Wu Yun said, "The battle report from the front line, Norton's three main fleets poured out to fight in front of the jump point connecting the Triumph Corridor and Norton, taking advantage of the position of Xingli to barely hold on. The battle lasted more than three hundred hours, and the dragon feather fleet was almost wiped out, and the other two fleets were also killed or wounded. ”
"It seems that the expedition proposal of the military department is necessary, and Norton will not be able to start a war for a long time to come." The Pope pondered, "What about the two Angels of Wisdom and the Four Angels stationed in Norton?" They should have gone to war, why are the casualties still so large? ”
"Holy See," Wu Yun hesitated, "the two Angels of Wisdom were killed and one wounded, and there was only one Angel left, and thirds of the Angel Army stationed in Norton were killed in World War II, and those who survived were rescued in the Intensive Care Unit of the Army General Hospital in Norton. ”
The Pope's pupils shrank, and she said coldly, "The demon clan dispatched a high-ranking demon general? ”
"The two, and one of the Demon Marshals, is the one who defeated Admiral Donald's fleet in the Triumphal Corridor, and that is Admiral Stehl's proud student."
"Unexpectedly, such a main force as the Demon Shuai level was dispatched, and that sacrificial wise angel was the resonance of his own sacred realm, right?"
"Yes, more than a third of the angels burned all their holy power and life here, killing that demon commander in one fell swoop."
"Body, have you found his body?" The Pope asked.
Wu Yun shook his head, "No, the battlefield was too chaotic at that time, and there was no chance to recover the corpse at all." But...... The latest investigation report of the Peruvian agency speculates that the main forces of the demon race above the upper demon general are all projections of the high-latitude universe. Wu Yun shuddered, "Lord Mechanic said that this was just a guess, but he also said that if this can be confirmed, we have killed no less than twenty high-ranking demon generals in the past, and each of them is so powerful that it needs the final death of a Divine Rank Angel to destroy. But to this day, the high-ranking demon generals of the demon race are still emerging in an endless stream, and they are still active in all corners of the universe, as if they can't be killed. ”
"Is it a projection of high-latitude consciousness...... It seems that our universe is really low-end, and if they want to enter, they have to incarnate as a kind of creature in our universe. The Pope touched the pendant on his chest, "So, I'm afraid that any high-ranking demon general in their universe actually has the power of the Demon Lord's level?" It was suppressed only because it entered our universe...... It seems a bit of a no-brainer. ”
"How?"
The Pope raised his eyes to look at Wu Yun, "If their purpose is to destroy us, then why don't they just come down?" In doing so, they may suffer casualties, but they will certainly blow up our universe. With their technology, they may not be able to plunder in such a situation. ”
"The Holy See means...... What's stopping them from coming by force? Wu Yun groaned.
"We still don't know the basic composition of the demons, but we can be sure that they have a great desire for war and killing, and they have a fanatical pursuit of destroying most of the demons. If it weren't for something stopping their powerhouse from descending, our world would probably have fallen apart long ago. The Pope gripped the pendant, "After all, we are too weak. ”
"But Holy See, we are getting stronger, it just takes time." Wu Yun raised his hand, two transparent crystals with crystal structures, inside were two fragments that emitted a faint light, he put the fragments on the table in front of the Pope, "This is the fragment of the holy relic that we recovered, the fragments of the holy relics held by the two archbishops have received varying degrees of damage, the fragments of the holy relics of the archbishop who died in the battle are about to collapse, and the core of the holy relics is in an unstable state." ”
The Pope picked up the crystal and looked at it, "You used alchemy to seal the Holy Relic Fragment?" ”
"Yes, I have to say that even the holy relics in the fragment state have very terrifying powers, and they are almost about to fail."
The Pope put down the crystal, "After all, the holy relic is a masterpiece of ancient alchemy, and every alchemy weapon that can be called a holy relic is sealed with alchemy inside. Like my holy spear, Longinus, this holy relic in its full state can destroy several cities like Jerusalem if it erupts without limit. ”
"It's really hard to imagine that the world with underdeveloped civilization in the past could give birth to the ultimate alchemy that even modern times can't surpass." Wu Yun sighed, he was not only a priest, but also a chemist, he had mastered alchemy through chemistry back then, but he had only reached the threshold of an alchemy master over the years.
"Send these two things to the Peruvian Agency, and if they can't be repaired, tell Reina that the power of the holy relic must be extracted and returned to the holy relic itself." Said the Pope.
"Yes, Holy See." Wu Yun said respectfully, "Also, the military department proposed that the Pope's Hall should send an angel army to sit on the front line. ”
"Send two high priests of the Temple, and the angel army will all go to Norton for me, except for those who need to guard the major planets." The Pope touched the ring on his finger, "Fei Leng Cui still has me, don't worry." ”
Wu Yun wanted to say something, but in the end he could only say yes, and then retreated.
