Chapter 67: The Pope's Perception (Part 1)
"Yes, we held a ritual to try to summon the 'King of Angels' to descend to ensure that we could successfully capture the artificial planet of the Magic Council, but he didn't respond at all, and he didn't even show up the symbolic rejection of the past, could something go wrong with the 'King of Angels' under the Pope's crown?" Philip recounted what had happened, with a strong tone of concern.
After the "Battle of Rentat", the strength of the Southern Church was greatly reduced, so the existence and bias of the "King of Angels" were of a new level of importance to them, which could help them stabilize the panicked and suspicious interior, and a strong man at the peak of the legend, who could drive the six legendary third-order seraphims in Heavenly Mountain, was itself a decisive force that could affect the situation.
Of course, the most important thing for Philip is whether the "King of Angels'" non-response has anything to do with His Majesty's Crown? Is it because of the secret announcement of the method of condensing the power of faith? Is it because the "King of Angels" has gone wrong in trying this path?
After listening to Philip's answer, Benedict III's expression did not change at all, and he slowly closed his eyes, and the holy light behind him flashed, a little milky white floating, creating a sense of divine vastness.
Then, surrounded by these rays of light, a gate seemed to open in mid-air, the gate to the "Heavenly Mountain", and the ethereal and ethereal chant sounded from this, and endless light gushed out, forming a projection of the "Heavenly Mountain" that was almost substantial.
The angels and the Holy Spirit in the projection seemed to be aware of this, and they all stood up and solemnly saluted Pope Benedict III, who held the platinum scepter in his hand.
He is the Lord's earthly spokesman, the incarnation who walks the world. Before returning to the Heavenly Mountain, he is more noble than the "King of Angels" and closer to the Lord!
And after "returning" to the heavenly mountain, He is directly integrated into the light of the Lord, equivalent to a part of the Lord!
After the salute, they began to pray, praise and chant, and the projection on the seventh floor was slightly clearer than any previous time.
In the seventh layer of Heavenly Mountain is a vast and boundless, transcendent pure light, without the slightest impurity, giving people a great oppressive force, it seems that it can really destroy the entire world!
Even Benedict III was a god-like god. It's also difficult to get a clear glimpse of what's going on inside. Only faintly visible at the edge of the light was a noble angel with thirty-six wings on his back, holding an ancient and sacred book in his hand.
"The 'King of Angels' didn't have a problem, it just fell into a deep sleep for some reason. Benedict III smiled at Philip and said, "Although his divine protection is well suited to this kind of action." Can't it be done without him?"
He was kind and calm on the surface. His eyes narrowed slightly. How could Mecantron be so weak, and how many injuries he had suffered? What the hell was he doing? Did his ambitions germinate again after the Sarde incident? Who caused it?
Even if the "King of Angels" is surrounded by the power of the "God of Truth". But Benedict III is also a real god-like, and "Mecantron" does not dare to enter deeper areas, and can only "prostrate" on the edge, so he is keenly aware of the weakness of "Mecantron", and smells a trace of abnormality from this inexplicable situation.
If it weren't for the Magic Council to show the important role of the artificial planet in a live broadcast, its own church in a relatively calm situation would definitely not try to summon the "King of Angels", as has been the case in the past hundred years, so that he would not be able to detect his weakness and abnormality, and at most half a year, "Mecantron" would be able to recover a little strength and cover up his weakness, because of his relationship with the "God of Truth" Tanos, there is no possibility for him to detect the problem.
"Thanks to the Council of Magic, thanks to Lucien Evans and Natasha Vaorit......" Benedict III's gaze was slightly gloomy.
Cardinal Philip heard the Pope's question, and said respectfully: "Returning to the Pope's crown, summoning the 'King of Angels' is only to increase the possibility of success, excluding the interference of unexpected factors, it is not impossible without him, if you can do it yourself, things will be much simpler." ”
"Although I have only been crowned for a few years and have not yet been able to use the 'Divine Descent Technique', I am also the incarnation of the Lord, a god-like who stands at the top of the entire mortal world, how can I not dare to leave the Holy City and dare not take action in person?" ”
The peak of the legend to the god-like is the sublimation of life, the transformation of immortality, and the improvement of the essence, even if the "god general" cannot be used, it is difficult for Benedict III to easily kill any legendary peak, but the number of legendary peaks cannot bridge the gap between the two levels.
Philip said happily: "Your Majesty the Pope has personally taken action, and the matter has been 90 percent successful. ”
"But I can only strike once, the evil pseudo-gods such as Silvermoon, Hell, and Abyss must be waiting for an opportunity to hit me and hit me hard before I can perform the 'Divine Descent', and for this purpose, Silvermoon and Hell can even give up their dislike and dislike for each other and act together. Benedict III said in a calm and kind voice.
He didn't know if Lucien and the other magicians had discovered the true secrets of monsters and Heavenly Mountain in the world of the Gate, but it was certain that they must have discovered something, and although the stories told in the "Voice of Mysteries" were exaggerated, they were also not lacking in truth, and if they looked at the essence through the phenomenon, they could vaguely perceive that there was a connection between themselves and monsters, and the reason why they could not use the divine descent frequently was not only unbearable in the physical body.
Therefore, He laid out his plan according to the two secrets that Douglas, Fernando, Lucian, the God of the Silver Moon, and the Lord of Hell already knew.
"One time is enough. Philip's face was happy, "Actually, under normal circumstances, it would have been possible to capture it according to our plan to destroy the artificial planet in the past, but this time it was the Magic Council that took the initiative to show it, and we had to beware of the possibility that they had already laid a trap, so the plan must be changed." ”
In previous years, the Church was unable to place similar items on the track on its own, and the methods of attack were all directly used by legendary powerhouses. The main problem is that the magic array arranged on the artificial planet to assist the arrival of the legendary magician and the magic array that monitors the surrounding situation and feeds back to Alinge make them have a lot of scruples.
Therefore, their action plan is simple and straightforward, first confirm which legends of the Magic Council go out to explore, and then wait for the opportunity, to fight fast and slow, to fight more and less, even if the monitoring magic array transmits the information back to Alinge, so that the legendary magicians who were in Alinge at that time can come to fight with the help of artificial planets, they can't stop it, and wait until other legendary magicians of the Magic Council come to help. When an advantage is formed. The artificial planet has been destroyed.
This kind of action plan seems simple, but the difficulty is not low, first of all, you need to confirm whether the legendary magician is really out, if you misestimate the number and strength. That's a joke with life. And the legendary magician is prepared for the case. It's hard for non-Legendary Night's Watch to really determine their whereabouts, so, for so long. The Church destroyed two artificial planets.
Because of this, Philip was worried that this capture of the artificial planet would fall into the trap of the Magic Council, after all, it was not a wonderful experience to see Douglas, Brooke, Fernando, Hathaway, Lucien Evans and others all around after arriving in orbit with a pre-arranged teleportation array, plus there was no magic defense array on the track, and the legendary magicians could simply block the space, so that the follow-up reinforcements could not be directly teleported to arrive, but could only be reached by flying, and things would become very terrifying.
"Legendary magicians who study the microscopic realm are becoming less and less fond of going out, focusing only on the ......collision of particles," Benedict III shook his head and sighed after hearing Philip mention his previous plans.
In the microscopic field of arcane research, the importance of magic experiments is stronger than going out to explore, so the number and frequency of legendary mages going out have decreased a lot, but fortunately, they also need to experiment with microscopic experiments in different environments, exploring whether there are microscopic particles that have not yet been discovered in various strange environments, such as positrons, so that they will not stay in Alinge completely, so that the Magic Council can organize a terrifying legendary team at any time.
Of course, the field of study of the legendary mages is not limited to the microcosm, but they also have to guard the various extradimensional dimensions, the four countries of the strait, and the coastal corridor of the Northlands.
"Their own divisions over the microscopic realm are about to fight......" Philip sneered, and continued, "In order to prevent the evil gods Silver Moon and Hell from having a chance to attack the Pope, we don't need you to go directly to orbit and capture artificial planets, but ......"
He recounted his plan in its entirety.
Benedict III listened expressionlessly, and said in the same tone: "I know the truth." ”
When Philip said goodbye and left, Benedict III got up and walked to the window, looked at the flowers that were swaying outside, and nodded slightly: "You have to be more cautious." ”
............
Inside the Silvermoon Wasteland.
Nasdel, who had hurried back, stood in front of Dubernal, his head bowed, not daring to look directly into the golden eyes of His Excellency the Prince.
"So Rentat is already so dangerous...... Dubernal said in a rough voice.
Nasdell suddenly had the urge to burst into tears, what had happened to him was not worthless, and finally made His Excellency the Prince face up to the dangers of the Magic Council and Rentat, and the guy who laughed at himself when he saw his scars before would not understand his contribution!
"So, working with the Magic Council is an option to consider. "Some of the werewolves have a good relationship with the Magical Council, while others are hostile, such as Dubernal, so Nasdell believes that his visit will change the Prince's attitude.
"Nope. Dubernal said firmly.
Nasdell looked at his own prince in amazement.
"We should fight the Magical Council, they are all so powerful and dangerous, and working with them will raise the next Cult of Truth. Dubernal said confidently and heroically.
Nasdell was stunned for a moment, and then said with great admiration: "Your Excellency, you are worthy of being the wisest and strongest man in the wolf clan, and your wise gaze penetrates the essence of the matter, I didn't expect this at all. ”
"Hahaha. Dubernal laughed in a good mood, and the reason why he valued Nasdell was because he was honest, very honest, and not smart enough to flatter himself. (To be continued......)
