In the year 1146 of the Dawn calendar, on the morning of the tenth day of the second month of the harvest season, outside the city of Saidnes.

Countless tents and soldiers of the Church of the Gods coalition surrounded the entire Saidnes, and in the face of the Church of the Gods coalition army, which had more than two million troops, the Pope's party looked at the seemingly endless tents and enemies outside the walls of Saidnes with extremely ugly faces.

"Can't we take the initiative?" Looking at the situation outside where the team of knights of 100 people was wandering around the edge of the lethality of the Saidnes defensive weapon, the Pope, who felt the might of the million-strong army outside, said very poorly.

Listening to the words of his own pope, the henchmen of several popes next to him couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Are you kidding? Take the initiative?? Rely on the strong to fight alone or the elite troops to assault

Needless to say, in the words of the elite troops, the Holy Radiance Empire has basically lost all the elite regiments such as the three ace knights and the ace mage regiment that they have worked hard to accumulate in more than two years of battle, and they have either become corpses or become prisoners or even members of the alliance of the opposite Church of the Gods.

Now although there are mad //letter // disciples selected by surprise in Saidnes, and through various means, the so-called Holy Radiance Legion has the strength of the three previous Ace Knights, but those "elites" who didn't even have much military knowledge and weapons ten days ago were pulled out to fight with the strong enemies outside? Is this a death delivery, or is it home delivery?

Of course, there are still some real elite troops in Saidnes, but they are all the last little bit of the old people of each family or the Holy Radiance Church, and if they go out and lose it now, there is no hope of holding on to the last bit of perseverance.

As for the battle between the strong

Well, among the enemies on the opposite side, there is an old guy like Magnus Claudius leading the team, and it is said that there are no less than ten legendary powerhouses in the coalition of the Church of the Gods opposite. Not to mention the combat power of other bottoms!

Under the persuasion of several high-ranking church officials who understood the situation, the pope, who was barely able to maintain his sanity, finally did not force the order to go out of the city to fight the strong enemy, but ordered all the believers and defenders to hold on to Saidnes - this undoubtedly relieved all those in Saidnis who were willing to resist to the end, and disappointed many infiltrators and those with other ideas!

However, the Church of the Gods coalition did not immediately launch a siege battle, but began to adjust the relevant deployment and siege equipment while setting up camp, preparing to rest and recuperate before launching a siege battle against Saidnes!

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Three days later, the rested and prepared Church of the Gods coalition forces, under the command of Magnus Claudius, began to prepare for an assault on the huge, fortified city of Sednes!

Early in the morning, countless soldiers and siege equipment poured out of the camp and began to swagger in front of the defenders of Saidnes - of course, avoiding the range of the hundreds of mage towers in the city

Although the Pope and the others who were observing in the largest mage tower in Saidnes were annoyed, after looking at the almost overwhelming number of opponents and the countless magical siege equipment, they were not stupid enough to let the magicians in charge of the mage tower waste their magic power to attack.

After all, unlike in the past, although the defenders in Saidnes are barely replenished with a large number of mad //letter// disciples and some elites of the fast formation, the extremely demanding mage profession of the magician is not something that can achieve the strong by relying on external objects alone - at least in the hands of the Holy Radiance Empire, there is no such possibility!

There is no shortage of mage towers in Saidnes now, but the mages who can control the mage towers do not have a legendary rank, and even the light legendary mage tower where the Pope is located is controlled by a mage of the Sanctuary rank. In this case, it's obviously not a good idea to have these mostly unqualified (for controlling mage towers) mages squandering the mana of mage towers, and it is better to use the mana stored in these mage towers for more critical moments!

However, just as the Pope and his entourage were watching the enemies outside the city of Saidnes line up in the mage tower, a familiar figure walked to the command position in the center of the enemy formation with a lot of followers.

"Magnus Claudius ?!!"

Seeing that familiar figure, a high-ranking member of the Holy Radiance Church who was a little less psychologically inferior did not just be surprised in his heart like the others, but shouted directly. And after hearing his voice, including the dignified Pope, all the people in the Mage Tower who knew the familiar figure had extremely ugly faces!

Magnus Claudius! Once the Supreme Commander of the Holy Sword Knights of the Holy Radiance Empire! It used to be the pride of the Holy Radiance Church, but that was more than three years ago, and now Magnus Claudius has become the most dangerous enemy in the history of the Holy Radiance Empire and the Holy Radiance Church!

Magnus Claudius became the interim pope of the Church of Dawn, the nominal supreme leader of the entire Church of the Gods, recruiting and dissuading a large number of captured and resentful clergy who were dissatisfied with the previous situation of the Radiant Empire

Anyway, in just over two years, Magnus Claudius has succeeded in making the Pope of the Holy Radiance Church and his high-ranking leaders regard him as a thorn in the side that must be removed, and even dispatched a legendary assassin who is the president of the Inquisition of the Holy Radiance Church to this end.

Unfortunately, the legendary assassin was directly killed by Magnus Claudius, and one of the remaining three legendary powerhouses of the Church of the Holy Radiance died under the combined forces of another Church of the Gods. The other was killed by Magnus Claudius on the battlefield, and the last one was His Majesty the current Pope of the Church of the Holy Radiance!

It can be said that there is no one else in the most hated person of the Church of the Holy Light now except Magnus Claudius!

"Can you know what he said?"

Looking at the image that had been brought closer to the limit, watching Magnus Claudius begin to speak, the Pope looked at the Sanctuary mage who was manipulating the mage tower around him, and asked with a very gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, it's too far away! The Mage Tower may even be blocked from the spells" Before the bitter-looking Sanctuary mage could finish speaking, the spell image that had been close enough to see Magnus Claudius's figure and face collapsed, making the most vivid annotation of the Sanctuary mage's words.

"Order, all city defense troops are on standby at any time, and the Mage Tower is ready for battle!"

Seeing this situation, the Pope gave the order with a gloomy face.

"Yes! His Majesty the Pope!"

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Outside of Sednes, Magnus Claudius, who didn't care about his "old friends" in the Sednes Mage Tower, was now holding a crystal scepter and giving an agitatory speech in the midst of the army.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have personally experienced the brutal rule of the Church of False Gods, and countless people have died tragically under the oppression of the minions of the False Gods for thousands of years, and this qiē is the fault of the False Gods and the brutal people of the False God Churches! Now, in the light of the glory of the gods, we will completely destroy the church and the minions of the false gods, and let the glory of the gods come to the earth."

Looking at the fanatical members of the Church of the Gods coalition around him, it became clear that Magnus Claudius, who was not good at words and encouraged a somewhat dry declaration, was still very productive.

Of course, the most important reason for this is the desire for a better life for the people who have just been freed from the oppressive rule of the Divine Empire, in addition to the miracles of the coming down of the true God. Under the temptation that the souls of the victims will enter the kingdom of the true God and enjoy the blessings (the words of the pastor of the church), and that the families of the war dead and meritorious service will be rewarded with land and titles, the morale of even the few contractors and declining nobles from other countries is extremely high, not to mention the people of the original Shenghui Empire whose lives have truly improved and who are full of hope for the future!

For the sake of their descendants and hopes, these ordinary people and contractors of the Holy Radiance Empire, who formed the alliance and backbone of the Church of the Gods, fought bravely and skillfully in the past few years, and even when they fought against the strongest conquest army of the Holy Radiance Empire, there was a touching situation where the entire corps and the entire legion fought to the death to create powerful conditions for the victory of other troops!

Even when he saw the live broadcast of the so-called "Battle of Taranto Plain", Rhodes, the owner of the game space of the gods, even thought of the steel army on the Korean Peninsula that could lurk for more than ten hours and fight to the death in the harsh conditions of wearing thin cotton clothes at tens of degrees below zero on the Korean Peninsula with rudimentary weapons.

Now, not to mention the encouragement of the gods that came only ten days ago, just facing Saidnes, the capital of the Holy Radiance Empire, and the realization that it is likely to be the final decisive battle is enough to make these people's blood boil, and the belief that they will not hesitate to fight for their future is rising!

"Long live the gods!!

"Completely Destroy the False God and the False God Church!!"

As soon as Magnus Claudius's words of encouragement fell, the shouts and slogans of millions of Church of the Gods allied soldiers and officers resounded throughout Saidnes, causing even the defenders on the opposite wall to shudder.

"Siege trebuchets and other siege weapons! Smash the walls of Sednes to the ground!" Seemingly infected, Magnus Claudius next gave an order that was a little louder.

With this order, thousands of magic trebuchets, magic giant crossbows, real yàn-type magic guide cannons, and real yàn-type magic light cannons were thrown into battle, directly tilting their power on the hundred-meter-high wall of Saidnes! (To be continued......)
