Chapter 47: God's Guardian (Part 3)

Dressed in the white robes of an ordinary clergyman, with slightly cloudy eyes, if it weren't for the calm and deep temperament, it would be difficult to say what difference there was between Salde and the old civilian man basking in the sun on the street of Rentat.

He glanced around at the empty church square and smiled, "I'm still worried that the storm lord won't dare you come." ”

With a stormy momentum, Fernando sneered: "What don't you dare to come? Will the church watch us continue to grow? I bet that in ten or sixty years, when the Pope's divine descent resumes next year, he will start an all-out war against us, so it is better for us to take the initiative." ”

Due to the rapid development of the past hundred years, and the results of subverting the Holy Canon or the Canon appear from time to time, the Magic Council has become the focus of the Church's current containment and attack, and it is no longer possible to bury its head in development, silently enjoying the peaceful time of the confrontation between the North and the South Church.

When a potential force develops to a certain stage, it is inevitable to have a war with the original controller in order to gain space for further development.

Therefore, for the past ten years, the Magical Council has been constantly provoking the Church, just to get them to break out a controllable local war if they are not prepared.

In the case that the Pope was restrained by the Northern Church and the Dark Council, and was not ready to mobilize and mediate accordingly, the Supreme Council of Magic believed that the loss of the legendary magician could be controlled within a certain range, so that there was a basis for winning the defection of the seven epic knights, but the Pope had always been very sensible, had been suppressing the radical tide within the church, and was ready step by step.

Faced with this situation. The Magical Council was under tremendous pressure, and if it weren't for the aftermath of the Crimson Moon incident, the Magical Council might have been besieged and intercepted by the Church, so Douglas's adventurous move to deceive the Pope with the help of artificial planet experiments has changed the situation again, and bought more time to prepare, even if there is no Salde seeking cooperation, the Council will try to provoke a war this year or early next year.

Fernando and the other members of the Supreme Council were completely unconvinced by Salde's assertion that the Pope would take sixty years for the Council to develop to the point where it could not be contained, and that a total war would break out in ten or twenty years. The Pope and members of the College of Cardinals are not blind. The rapid expansion of arcane theories in recent years, it is impossible for them not to see, it is impossible not to make new estimates, and. The most important thing is. Before the discovery of a new dimension. The Pope gave the order for an all-out war due to the new alchemy, only to be delayed by the more important search for gods.

So, Douglas and other Grand Arcanists have reason to believe. In the case that the situation in the new Xenodimensional space has gradually stabilized, when the Divine Descent is restored, the Pope will focus on getting rid of the Magic Council, and perhaps this time next year, what is waiting for is a full-scale war in which the Church is fully prepared, in this case, it is better to take the initiative to provoke changes in the situation, create a general trend, and avoid the terrible situation of throwing a legendary peak as cannon fodder to attract the Divine Descent - no legendary peak will be willing to die by himself, which will bring about internal divisions in the Council.

The Salder collaboration is just such an opportunity, just in line with the idea of the parliament to launch a plan this year or early next year.

Therefore, the most detailed plan of the council's action was to deal with the sudden arrival of the pope with fifteen or sixteen members of the cardinal.

Salde smiled slightly: "Sure enough, it is the vigorous Magic Council, the church has slowly become decaying after nearly a thousand years have passed, and only blood and fire can give it a new life." Go inside, the Divine Barrier has been closed, and even the moderate clergy I have found an opportunity to send to Richard, and there are only a few people left inside, including Vera Almorton who oversaw the process on my behalf. ”

He demanded that the parts of the Radiant Cathedral, with the exception of the teleportation array, be preserved for his future use.

This stingy and eager attitude seems to indicate the sincerity of his cooperation.

Without the Divine Enchantment, Fernando's spiritual force field enveloped the Radiant Cathedral without hindrance, but he was not careless, and ordered Donald, the Elemental Will Leader who followed him, and his student Tang Pu and others to take the lead in and control the Divine Enchantment Core and the super-large teleportation array.

The archmages and high-ranking mages quickly took control of the Radiant Cathedral, and the part of the clergy who watched their actions became extremely emotionally complicated.

Although they were biased towards the Magical Council, and they also had the idea of changing like the Northern Church under the bewitchment of Salde, and they no longer wanted to live under the terrifying pressure of the Magical Council, but they still felt a sense of loss and reddish eyes when they saw the Radiance Cathedral, a symbol of the Cult of Truth's effective control over the territory across the Storm Strait, being controlled by magicians.

Is an era over?

Due to the sturdiness of the super-large teleportation array, it was difficult for the archmages to destroy it directly, so Fernando dragged the red magic robe and walked towards the Radiant Cathedral.

At this time, Salde smiled and said, "I will withdraw from Rentatt first, dispel your doubts, and wait until you have completed complete control of this territory, and then I will come to be crowned Archbishop of Radiance." ”

Fernando glanced at him with stormy eyes, didn't say anything, and went straight past him, followed by the "Absolute Defense" Artuman.

Salde laughed twice, and walked out of the church square at a rapid pace.

"Alinge" had already flown over Rentat, and all the rails were folded away, like a battle fortress.

Douglas sat on the thirty-fifth floor of the Central Magic Tower and commanded, "Atlante, keep an eye on Salder. ”

The Cursed Eye nodded, its closed eyes open, and it seemed that there was a strange and intoxicating world hidden inside.

The eastern part of the city is an aristocratic district, where both the Palace of Nexer and the Glorious Cathedral are located, so the scenery is beautiful and the population density is very low.

Before Salde came out, a knight whipped his dragon-scale horse and galloped down the wide, deserted avenue, and the midday sun was fierce, and he arrived at Duke James's villa with little encounter.

"Her Majesty the Queen has called for an emergency meeting of the nobles. James said suspiciously, and the time was tight. Almost only the nobles of Rentatt could participate, and the outsiders could not catch up at all.

After identifying the authenticity of the coat of arms, Duke James went to the Palace of Nexer with a stomach full of questions.

And in the remote northwest corner of the Nexer Palace, Lucien leaned against the back of a large tree like a sycamore, waiting for orders, hoping that nothing would happen.

"Lucien, don't be nervous. Maurice flew over from the direction of the Royal Tower of Magic with the magician members of the Royal House of Holm, called Lucien on the ground, and then flew to the other direction of Nexer Palace to station.

"Your Excellency, I don't want to be nervous. Lucien watched them go away. I replied with a cold humor in my heart. He looked at the wide aristocratic villas on both sides of the road, and couldn't help but think of Joel's family, who, under Natasha's "arrangement", went to the manor on duty in the suburbs. lest they be swept up by the flames of possible war.

The disappearance of Juliana and Minsk has always made Lucien a little uneasy.

"I hope there won't be a plan five...... Plan 3 is also better not to show up......" Lucien silently hoped.

Outside the monastery of the city of Sirentat. Hathaway, dressed in a dark black magic robe, stood quietly in the shade of a tree. Waiting for Fernando to destroy the mega teleportation array, she will destroy the entire Holy Grail Knights and some of the radical clergy in the Lentat Monastery.

For the Holy Knight Stone who only has a Legendary First Order, she is not careless but also not overly concerned.

............

The thirty-fifth floor of the Alinge Magic Tower. Information from all over the country came back one by one.

"Erica took control of the Cathedral of Cux. ”

"Vicente took control of the Cathedral of Blanes. ”

"Herculi takes control of the Cathedral of the Northland Light. ”

Brooke and Holt waited for the order to do it. ”

"Confirmed, the Pope is still preaching......"

"Confirmed, several of the saints are still by his side......"

Douglas stood calmly in front of him, not nervous, he was able to establish the Magic Council under the extremely bad circumstances at the beginning and let it grow and grow, he had never seen any dangerous situation, no matter how bad the situation was this time, it could be worse than the situation in the early days of the establishment of the Magic Council?

At that time, there were magicians who were purified by the church every day, and they could be destroyed at any time!

Suddenly, Atlante said in a deep voice, "Salde is missing......"

Under the attention of his cursed eye, Salde, who had just left the aristocratic district, disappeared without a sound!

Douglas looked at Oliver and the others, and said calmly: "Inform Brooke to make a move, inform Hurchuli to do it, send several cardinals to Heavenly Mountain or seal and expel them before the Epic Knight realizes that the situation is wrong, and at the same time, tell Brooke to return for reinforcements as soon as the battle is resolved." ”

Hathaway and Davey swapped places. ”

"We're helping Fernando!"

One after another, Hathaway vanished and appeared in the Alinge Magic Tower, and Davey, the "Creator", took over her mission to stop Stone.

Inside the Radiant Cathedral, a super-large teleportation array was shrouded in a layer of holy light.

Fernando is standing far away in the atrium, ready to use the "Thunderstorm" to destroy it completely.

At this moment, Vera Almorton's beautiful and indifferent face, who was supervising in the other direction, suddenly showed a touch of joy from her heart, and a stream of holy light erupted from her body, and the muscles of her face twisted and squirmed, turning into a handsome man who was more beautiful than a woman.

The man had long blonde hair, holy and beautiful features, and the white wings on his back quickly spread, one, two, three, four...... Eighteen pairs!

He fell to his knees reverently, countless points of light entwined between his wings, and behind him, a seven-story heavenly mountain projection faintly appeared, with the same singing Holy Spirit and angels, the same six Seraphs, and the same boundless light of the highest layer.

It's just that compared to the projection of the Divine Descent, this projection is much more ethereal, and in the highest layer, the huge canonical angel who is prostrate at the feet of the God of Truth has disappeared!

"Whoever recites your name will not be harmed by anything. ”

The man prayed in a low voice, and his body rapidly weakened, staining everything around him with a layer of ripples that seemed not to belong to this worldly realm, and the ripples quickly spread, enveloping the super-large teleportation array in it.

Fernando's bright red pupils constricted slightly:

"King of Angels, Mecantron!"

He didn't rush to attack the super-large teleportation circle, but calmly signaled:

"Plan three. (To be continued......)
