Chapter 52: Stalemate (Second Shift Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Nexer Palace, the outer area of the House of Nobles, where Richard was already waiting with hundreds of leading supporters of the Reformation.
When the two divine descents appeared in the sky and attacked each other, the cardinals and bishops looked confused like never before, and muttered words that were not similar to each other but seemed to be different:
"How is this possible?"
"Who is the heretic?"
"There's always one heretic, right?
"Lord, are you testing us?"
Divine descent, the supreme divine technique that belongs to the Pope, undoubtedly confirms his identity as the spokesman of the god of truth on earth, and has deterred all powerful enemies, including god-like, for nearly a thousand years, and is the most solid self-confidence in the hearts of the clergy, even if those priests and bishops of the northern heresy will be silent when they mention this issue, and no longer have the ability to speak eloquently, although the successive popes have the "divine grace technique" that is close to the strength of the god-like in a short period of time, but it is the same as the "god of the silver moon" and the "lord of hell" who can injure and repel the "god of the silver moon" and the "lord of hell" "Divine Descent" is like the difference between the lower angel and the king of angels.
But today, Salde, a saint who rebelled against the Pope, actually used the "Divine Descent Technique", does that mean that this is not a special gift from the Lord, but an ordinary divine skill that can be mastered through exploration?
If Salde was also blessed by the Lord to "descent", then who is His earthly spokesman? When two God's favorers destroy each other with "divine descent", who is a heresy? Why did the Lord create such a scene?
Confusion, vacillation, confusion and other emotions echoed in their hearts. It seems that the slightest mistake can shake the faith and be swallowed by the Light, in which case the Council of Magic will surely award the Pope and Salder the "Special Contribution Award" for their outstanding contribution to the destruction of the clergy's faith.
At this time, Richard's mind sounded that Lucian's question:
"God loves the world, but he loves the shepherds more? God loves the world, but does not want to communicate directly with everyone's heart? When you pray, at home, at home, you feel the majesty of the gods? It has to be guided by the clergy?"
"The Pope is God's earthly spokesman. Why do you repeatedly misinterpret the Holy Scriptures and revise the Sacred Texts again and again?"
“...... Both the Pope and the Church impose obstacles between believers and God for the sake of their own power, and whether or not they have access to divine power should be equally equal before the Lord......"
At some point, he uttered these words in the form of reciting the Holy Scriptures.
A moderate cleric first looked at him with bewildered and helpless eyes. It seems to be seeking the true meaning of the gods. Listen, listen. They seemed to understand something, and someone was keenly connected with Richard's program of returning the right to interpret the Holy Scriptures to every believer!
"Perhaps this is the purpose for which the Lord is testing us?"
This is the kingdom of heaven on earth that the Lord really wants to create! Men and women, young and old, rich and poor. As long as the heart is pious, everyone can be redeemed in heaven!"
Their expressions became peaceful and kind, but their eyes were full of determination and fanaticism, and at the end of the day, they all shouted with Richard:
"Fuck off the clergy who say 'faith, faith' to believers and blaspheme their faith themselves!"
"Farewell, the clergy who say to believers, 'God loves the world, and God loves the world,' but who try to monopolize their hearts and minds to approach the path of the gods!"
"There should be no artificial obstacle between the believer and the Lord, only faith and what the faith does!"
When these words were shouted, the milky white and soft light of the clergy was lit up, and there seemed to be a beautiful and ethereal singing voice around them, which was like the joy of the God of Truth, and they rejoiced in understanding the true meaning of "heaven on earth"!
The spiritual wrap was completely lost, and Richard had a feeling of being closer to the Lord and more joyful and at ease, and the accumulated divine cultivation finally crossed the gate and was promoted to the ninth level.
And around him, there are many clergy who have been promoted by one level.
This is a gift from the Lord, and this is His joy in our choice. Richard said in a misty voice.
A cardinal, who had also been promoted by one level, couldn't hide his smile and said, "Bishop Richard, when your Reformation program is realized, maybe you will be able to become a Holy Spirit priest." ”
"We don't give in return, we come from devout faith. Richard waved his hand slightly.
At this time, he saw Natasha, dressed in silver-gray armor, wearing a golden crown inlaid with many gems, and under the dangerous environment where the aftermath of the legendary battle outside caused the Nexer Palace's divine defense barrier to shake from time to time, holding a long sword, striding heroically, full of the majesty of a king.
As she passed Richard and them, Natasha nodded lightly, drew a cross on her chest and said, "The Lord is always in our hearts." ”
Her long purple hair swayed slightly up and down her head, making people worry that the crown would fall off.
"Only the truth endures. Richard understood Natasha's support and led the clergy to return the salute.
Natasha didn't say anything more, the nobles in the House of Nobles should have seen the transformation of these clergy, and their faith would definitely be shaken!
In the House of Nobles, Duke Diamond, Duke Russell, Earl of Sea Pine and others looked at the sky with dead faces, the ocean of light, the breath of destruction of everything, could not compare to the vibration brought by the words "Divine Descent to Divine Descent" itself.
Even though they are aristocrats who are biased towards the parliament, but after hundreds of years of nurturing and perseverance from generation to generation, faith has been integrated into their blood, spirit and will, and the God of Truth is undoubtedly the only true God, except that He created everything, embraced everything, and did not discriminate against normal magicians.
But now, this paradoxical scene has shaken their faith violently, and perhaps the Lord is just like the magicians described, giving magic according to certain rules, and keeping the world running. I don't care about anything else at all, even if the church is divided, even if it is "God to God", it is just a farce!
The transformation of Richard and other clergy outside seemed to have found another possibility for them to explain this behavior, and their mood gradually settled down, and their eyes were a little more contemplative.
"I didn't think that Salde could also use the Divine Descent Technique...... Duke James said as he looked at his companion beside him.
Russell replied with a wry smile: "His Majesty the Pope probably didn't expect it, so he had to use the Divine Descent Technique to block it." ”
There are no superfluous words, no other analysis, just plain two sentences. It's all in plain sight.
Conservative aristocrats such as Rex and Sorenfen were even more chaotic. It seems that I don't know what the Lord is, what the Pope is, and what the Holy See is.
The content of their muttering was similar to that of the moderate clergy before them, and they were confused and sluggish.
Then. Natasha walked in. Camille followed him as usual. This is the first time she has entered the House of Nobles wearing a silver-gray "Holm Kai" and a Holm crown, with thick and beautiful purple eyebrows and bright and firm silver-purple eyes. The high bridge of the nose, the tightly pursed lips, and the slightly rigid outline not only outline an incomparably beautiful scene, but also complement the whole body armor and golden crown, so that the heroism of the knight and the majesty of the king are unreservedly displayed, so that the nobles seem to have found the backbone, and the mood gradually stabilizes.
And the "Sword of Truth" in her right hand made the pupils of Rex, Sorenfinh, James and other nobles shrink slightly, and Her Majesty the Queen actually concealed her strength!
However, with the appearance of the Sword of Truth, some of the trepidation and worry in their hearts gradually disappeared.
The strange sound of metal combat boots stepping on the wooden platform sounded, and Natasha ignored the terrifying scene of magic and magic flying outside, and said in a deep voice:
"Start an emergency meeting of the nobility. ”
Thank you Pope and Salder for giving the work of persuasion a little more weight than beforehand!
There was a strange magical object on the stage, which ran on electricity, and recorded Natasha's voice, and then let the sound enter a metal pipe, which was transmitted outside the "earthly heaven", because the pre-laid telephone line itself connected the city and beyond, and such transmission was not a supernatural force, so it withdrew from the "earthly heaven" and passed into the suburban manor.
The spare magician team in the manor hurriedly relayed the "live sound" of this noble meeting to the noble council of the Kingdom of Camelot, the Kingdom of Briana, the Duchy of Calais, and the Northland Coastal Corridor through the artificial planet.

After the legendary battle began, all of them quickly flew into the air, seizing air supremacy, if it were not for the restrictions of the "heavenly kingdom on earth", they would also fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters like Benedict II and Salde.
When the breath of the "Divine Descent" came from high in the sky and penetrated the barrier of the "Earth and Heaven", St. Melmos was extremely surprised and confused, but then a heavy pressure followed.
"Salder is a traitor?
"His Majesty's crown burned the remaining life using the Divine Descent ......"
"What the hell is going on?"
"Salde is really ruthless, deliberately fighting against the Pope in the sky, this is to shake the foundation of the Church's faith! Even if he dies, the Church will fall into the mud. ”
Of course, Melmos also knew that Salde had another purpose in flying high into the air, and that was to prevent the destruction of the city of Rentat and the heavenly kingdom on earth, the trigger medium of his divine descent.
The reason why he used the "Kingdom of Heaven on Earth" to isolate the legendary battle was not only to strengthen the members of the Cardinal Order of the Church, weaken the magicians, but also to protect the believers of Rentat City, otherwise, in the uncontrolled battle just now, the entire Rentat would have been destroyed.
The descent duel in the sky seemed to distort space and time, and there was an abnormal freeze, and Pope Benedict II and Salder were briefly gone.
Melmos was prepared for the Pope's crown to not be able to draw his hand for a certain period of time, suppressed the Storm Master, and scanned the entire battlefield:
Douglas relied on endless magic to gain the upper hand in the duel with the King of Angels, even if it was the magic of the Nine Rings, Eight Rings, and One Ring, when used in his hands, the effect was no less than ordinary legendary magic, and it was faster and easier, but the King of Angels, Mecantron, who had the "Guardian of the Gods", was extremely strong, so that the Arcane Emperor could not free his hands and could not prepare more powerful legendary magic.
Hathaway gradually became familiar with the strength of the legendary pinnacle, and began to suppress the two saints, Oliver and Helen were weakened by the "Earth Heaven" and the two saints on their side were increased, but they were still able to fight to a draw, and the strength of the Grand Arcanist was really stronger than the saints.
However, in other places, due to the lower the strength and the more ruthlessly suppressed by the "Earth and Heaven", the Holy Spirit priests and holy knights of the church gradually gained the upper hand, especially the "Starlight Light" was left and right under the siege of Estella and Aizalo, relying on legendary items and many strange magic to not be killed, but it seems that his fall will not be long before the end.
And Fernando, the storm lord in front of him, was also suppressed by himself, although he couldn't solve him in a short time, he had the ability to protect the super large teleportation array with his free hands.
The advantage of the battle situation is still on his own side!
Thinking of this, Melmos's gaze looked at the super-large teleportation array below the Storm, as long as there were two more saints or third-order epic knights in the follow-up, there was no need to draw more, and they could start effectively killing the evil magicians, and once this situation occurred, the seven epic knights on this side of the Storm Strait should know how to choose!
As soon as the signs of failure appear, they will be as unstoppable as a flood!
If Brooke comes back first, things will be in trouble, and more members of the Cardinal Conference and Epic Knights will need to be drawn, which will give the Dark Council and the Northern Heresy a chance, and of course, maybe His Majesty the Pope will end the battle first and come to reinforcements, then maybe half of the legendary magicians will be wiped out!
"But why didn't Fernando use his 'eye of the storm'?" Melmos thought, a little confused.
The Storm Master has two legendary items, the church knows very well, one is the "Robe of the Lord" and the other is the "Eye of the Storm", the former can't tell if he is wearing it when he is not in danger of his life, but the latter, as the main "artifact", why has he not used it?
............
Nexus Palace.
On the way to the control center, Lucien did not encounter Ketonia's block, and it seems that as Natasha expected, Winston stopped him, otherwise he would have to ask Mr. Rhein for help - although Rhine had disappeared, Lucien believed that he was nearby, he was waiting for his opportunity, and if Salde had any other plan in reserve, he didn't mind destroying it, or rather, he was eager to do it.
Seeing that the control center was close in front of him, a silver-gray sword light with a hideous crack suddenly appeared and slashed at Lucian.
Under the sword light, Lucian's body was directly torn in half, but it disappeared like foam.
Not far from the "Gordon ...... of the Ripping Sword", Lucian's figure appeared and saw the silver-gray man in his hands.
Gordon also whispered: "Seven-ring magic simulacrum......"
This magic can create a real illusion equivalent to half of its own level, with touch, sound, smell, overlapping fate, and can cast magic. (To be continued......)
