Chapter 522: The tone is not small!
In exchange for some ancient texts and antiques of the Celestial Empire collected by the church in its early years, several corpses that were important to the church were exchanged. This business is worth it in the eyes of the church. In Xu Haibao's opinion, he is not a loss.
According to the list of antiques counted, the domestic experts in charge of appraisal all said that these ancient texts are rare. Many of them are still the only ones that do not exist in China at present. It will play an important role in the study of the ancient culture of the Celestial Empire.
The smooth transaction was a relief to the archbishop, who had come to contact him in person. From the few additional corpses given by Xu Haibao, the church also saw Xu Haibao's sincerity, and he didn't seem to have malicious intentions towards the church's words.
Leaving the military port where the escort fleet was located, the archbishop who was about to transport these corpses to the airport looked at the refrigerated lane behind him: "With this corpse, we may be able to exchange with Satan!"
The reason why the church attaches so much importance to a few corpses is more to exchange corpses with the Star Research Society. In the course of the early years of the war, many bishops and archbishops of the church were killed, and their bodies fell into the hands of the Star Research Society.
Although both sides know each other to death, most of them give a certain amount of respect to the deceased. Earlier, the church also proposed to exchange, but the church could not find the same amount of corpses to exchange, and Satan would also open his mouth.
For the people of the Satanist Order, the corpses of the powerful people of the Church who were killed by them are also a weapon to motivate the morale of the members. It is not as terrible as imagined to let the members of the organization know that the strong men of the church will also die at their hands.
"Archbishop, are those things exchanged for the Celestial Empire really useless?"
In the opinion of the accompanying bishop, most of the things worthy of the church's collection are good. And this time, the church also counted the second blood. In such a transaction, it is really unknown who will make and who will lose.
On the other hand, the archbishop smiled and said: "Don't worry, we have studied those ancient texts for many years, and some of them have been rerecorded. For us, those ancient books have lost their research value, so we should clean up our inventory!"
The church, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, has collected more cultural relics and ancient books, but they can't remember how many they have. Now it is possible to exchange something that has lost its value for something useful to the Church, and in the archbishop's opinion it is not a loss.
Just as the convoy was heading towards the airport, the archbishop sitting in the car suddenly sensed a threat and immediately said, "Stop!
As an SS-level powerhouse, the archbishop's intuition is naturally very sensitive. Sensing the threatening atmosphere, the convoy personnel were immediately ordered to be on alert. Looking at his surroundings again, he felt that something was very wrong.
Just after the convoy stopped in place, the referee in charge of opening the road suddenly felt that the temperature in the car dropped instantly. Ice flakes soon appeared in the car window, which caused the adjudicator to shout in horror: "Enemy attack! Damn, it's the Ice Devil!"
As the referee roared out an enemy attack, he instantly activated the Holy Light Shelter and forcibly rushed out of the car. In less than a minute, the car in which the adjudicator was riding turned into an ice lump.
The archbishop, who was also alert, looked at the middle-aged man flying slowly in front of him, and said with a tense expression: "Ice Demon Tim!"
As a mortal enemy, the archbishop naturally knows that there are those strong people in the Satanist Order. The guy in front of him, nicknamed 'Ice Demon', is also the target of the church's long-term hunt. It's a pity that the opponent's strength is very strong, and the ability is also very strong.
The archbishop, who got out of the car, looked at the ice demon standing in the air, clenched the holy relic on his chest and said, "Tim, do you want to start a holy war? Do you know the consequences of doing so?"
"Hand over the corpses and spare your lives!"
Ice Demon Tim said this in a cold tone, ignoring the archbishop's threat at all. As a mortal enemy, the Ice Demon knows very well how strong the Church is. Even if he is a strong man, he is still not the Pope's opponent.
Even if he is the top powerhouse of the church, if he is really right, he can only avoid the edge for the time being. But this time, he was on orders. For Satan's order, the Ice Demon has no right to refuse at all, unless he can be promoted to the Emperor Realm.
In the face of the strength of the ice demon, the archbishop naturally could not admit defeat, and said very directly: "Impossible! This is the task assigned by the Pope, if you dare to do it, the Pope will definitely be furious, you should be ready to start a holy war!"
"That's a lot of nonsense!icicles!"
Knowing that the archbishop would not hand over the corpse easily, the ice demon was left with only one choice, and that was to forcibly snatch the corpse from the archbishop. As for starting the holy war, he still has Satan above him, and he doesn't need to worry too much.
Anyway, the church and the Satanists have been fighting fiercely for many years, and the hatred between them cannot be resolved at all. Since he is a mortal enemy, then why should he be polite, because he does not want to provoke the envy of the church, but he must obey Satan's commands.
As the ice demon took the lead, one after another icicles appeared in the air. Looking at these huge and sharp icicles, the archbishop, who was slightly inferior in strength, immediately shouted: "Holy Light Protection! Everyone break through and retreat to the port!"
In the archbishop's opinion, with his personal strength, it is difficult to deal with the ice demon. In order to ensure that the mission does not fail, he can only take a gamble and lure the ice demon to the port where Xu Haibao is, hoping to use Xu Haibao's power.
Just as the other adjudicators turned to break through, Ice Demon Tim's ice magic instantly froze the two adjudicators on the spot. Even if these adjudicators activated the Holy Light Protection, they still couldn't resist Tim's extreme freezing.
Seeing this scene, the archbishop could only forcibly say: "Lord, baptism of holy light!"
With the help of the Hallows he carried, the archbishop made a big move at Tim. This kind of light magic is also very threatening to Tim. Faced with the appearance of a large number of pillars of light, Tim also quickly changed his body in the air.
The rest of the adjudicators knew perfectly well that the archbishop would not be able to resist for long. One of the adjudicators directly broke the frozen refrigerated truck and carried out the coffin of the angel in the middle of the ride, and the other rulings also had one by one.
The reason for this is also very simple, it is to divert the attention of the ice demon. After all, there was only one person in the Ice Demon, and it was difficult for him to guess who was carrying the coffin of the Angel. What the archbishop has to do is to buy time for the referees to transfer.
When Tim confronts the archbishop, the members of the dark team in charge of monitoring immediately report the situation. Xu Haibao, who learned the news, also said in a timely manner: "Just observe from a distance, and you can't enter the war zone." You can't participate in this kind of battle!"
Xu Haibao, who hung up the phone, quickly said: "Old Tang, say hello to the fleet and let them be on guard in front of the door." If you are an ordinary soldier, go to the warship and stay first. This battle, it is estimated that it will involve our station. ”
"Wouldn't you? Those guys are so daring?"
"The courage of foreign devils has never been small! It is rare for a master to appear, and I also want to loosen my muscles. Letting ordinary soldiers withdraw to the ship is more about ensuring safety. If it really starts, I'm afraid that it will hurt the pond fish. ”
"I'll tell you right away, what about the fleet?"
"It's okay! You can just watch the battle! With your strength, even if it is affected, it shouldn't be a big problem. Besides, if you look at such a clash of strong men, it will also help you improve your cultivation. ”
Xu Haibao was not too surprised by the decision made by the archbishop. In fact, the powerhouse of the Star Research Association chose to do it outside the base, which is somewhat provocative to Xu Haibao!
It's just that Xu Haibao is a little relieved that the strong man sent by the Star Research Association is near the base, which means that the retaliation action launched by Zhao Ji and others should not be blocked by the Star Research Association too strongly, and the safety of the action team members is more guaranteed.
As Tang Xingyou relayed Xu Haibao's notice, an alarm sounded from the base in an instant. A large number of officers and men quickly completed the operational assembly. Looking at the many soldiers who had gathered inexplicably, the officer immediately gave the order to board the ship.
Just when some soldiers wondered if they needed to carry any weapons and equipment, these officers quickly said: "No! Board the ship immediately, start the ship, and be ready to leave the port at any time!"
No one knows how big the battle scene will be, and for the sake of safety, it is also a wise choice to let the soldiers and the support personnel of the base get on board first. As for Xu Haibao, of course, he is at the forefront.
The result was obvious, looking at several adjudicators who were carrying coffins and running wildly, Tang Xingyou, who was standing beside Xu Haibao, stepped forward at the right time and said, "Everyone, why are you coming back again?
"Xu, save us!
"Ice Demon! is the Star Research Society a powerhouse?"
"Yes, an SSS-class powerhouse! Our archbishop is at war with him, please help us!"
To the judge's surprise, Xu Haibao said calmly after hearing this: "What does this matter have to do with me?
"We're willing to make reparations! If something goes wrong with this deal, the Pope will be furious!"
"He's your pope, so what does it have to do with me?"
Facing Xu Haibao, whose expression was also cold and calm, these adjudicators also seemed to be somewhat broken. Just as they were begging bitterly, the archbishop, who relied on the holy weapon on his chest to protect him, flew to Xu Haibao covered in blood.
The pursuing Ice Demon Tim looked at Xu Haibao standing in front of the barracks, and said with a cold expression: "You are the one from the Celestial Empire?
"You're an ice demon, do you know what our Celestial Dynasty monks are best at?
Facing the threat of the ice demon, Xu Haibao didn't pay attention to it at all. Looking at the archbishop, who was already seriously injured, Xu Haibao also said calmly: "Mr. archbishop, do you know the price of asking me for asylum?"
"As long as Mr. makes a move, the church will definitely give Mr. enough commission!"
"Okay! I hope you will do what you say! If you regret it, the consequences will be very serious!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to signal Tang Xingyou and led the members of the adjudication committee to the rear. As for Xu Haibao's words, he stood in front of the ice demon first. For the angel of the Star Research Association, Xu Haibao is still a little interested.
The most important thing is that the other party should be good at ice magic. If you can study it well, it should still be a little helpful and meaningful for him, a water-based monk!
