Chapter 32: Heresy

During the period when the Pompeii Empire was at war with the demons, the Solan Empire also experienced a major event.

On June 10, the kingdom of heaven begins.

The trumpets resounded in the sky, and the hymns spread to every corner of the continent.

In the western sky, a golden gate slowly opened from the blue sky. Colorful dots of light fell like a ceiling. Countless larks fly around the gates of heaven. Thousands of white clouds, like fish scales, gathered together layer upon layer, from heaven to earth.

A moment later, a cloud of white light fell from the sky.

The white light was as soft and slow as a feather. However, after only a few breaths, the white light had already landed.

Solan Imperial Capital Square, Edward I, Pope Solan, the twelve cardinals from Vatican and the envoys of the Holy Virgin's Temple, the Royal Knights, the Solan Holy See Guard, and hundreds of imperial nobles, dignitaries, and clergy from all over the country have been waiting for a long time.

"Greetings to the angels. ”

With the sound of the horn, Pope Solan took the lead in saluting, the white light slowly dissipated, and a slender white jade foot stepped on the land of Solan.

When all the light turned into flying fireflies and dissipated into the void, what appeared in front of everyone was a woman in a white robe.

She has a slender figure, a beautiful face like a dream, and on her back, a pair of light wings like a swan are gently flapping, but the cold look on her face makes her beautiful look a little cold and hard.

Behind the woman, there were two expressionless knights and a priest wearing a hood with a cross tattooed on the center of his eyebrows.

Although angels also appear in ceremonies or grand ceremonies within the Holy See, this is the first time in a hundred years that angels have openly descended into the mortal world.

At that time, Solan Didu Square was crowded. Countless people have witnessed this spectacular spectacle.

It's a pity. The angel only gave people a gleaking glance, then got into the carriage and immediately went to Lulian on the Sky Demon Ship with the investigation mission sent by the Holy See, as well as the investigation team of the Solan Empire.

The investigation into divine punishment had already begun long before the angels arrived.

The Holy See sent a large number of black-clad clergy from the Inquisition. Travel to Lulian. Almost dug three feet into the fjord military camp at that time and turned it over.

Not only were the families, identities, and backgrounds of those soldiers who died in divine punishment investigated, but other soldiers in the battalion at that time were also questioned, even those who were fighting outside.

However, because of Sophia's previous work, the investigation did not yield any results.

This time the angel went. In everyone's opinion, it should also be nothing.

After all, the Holy Court Patrol is the Heavenly Guardian Spirit created by the Holy Emperor himself, and the divine punishment is so powerful. Even a strong man who has just entered the Holy Realm, under this blow, he will be wiped out. Whoever the blasphemer was, he was clearly dead. What is the significance of this so-called investigation?

..........

At the moment, the fjord barracks. Still the same as when the divine punishment fell.

One after another, horse-drawn carriages drove into the barracks. Although that thrilling war has long since ended. However, standing on the hill where the barracks were located and looking into the distance, the blood-stained earth, the chariots burned to ashes, and the scattered tattered flags and weapons were still thrilling.

Look at the angel in the white robe. Slowly to the edge of the pit formed by the divine punishment, the people present were all talking to each other for a while.

In the crowd, Mo Ya whispered in Sophia's ear: "I heard from the people of the Holy See that her name is Diana. He is a first-class criminal angel who is responsible for monitoring nether heresy. You say, what can she see?"

Sophia shook her head, silent.

She has already done what she should do.

Not only were the people around Roy protected, but even the soldiers who might know the situation had been scattered by her and assigned to other places to do things that were not very visible such as taking care of the warehouse.

This is Lulian, who has enough time and strength to hide the existence of a teenager. Therefore, no matter how much the black-clad priests of the Holy See Inquisition asked and how to find it, they found nothing.

However, for some reason, Sophia had some bad premonitions about this heavenly envoy named Diana.

Since the creation of the city in the sky, the kingdom of heaven has been high above and far away in the clouds. Those who can become messengers of the Kingdom of Heaven are all powerhouses of the Holy Land.

It is a paradise in the hearts of all people, and it is also a sacred place for human faith.

Especially now that the demons have broken through the natural danger of the Broken Sky Mountain Range, in the eyes of people, only Heaven is the only force to save mankind.

This time the angels are in the lower realm, and I don't know how many people's eyes are concentrated.

However, what everyone is concerned about may not be heresy, but more people want to know what information about heaven this angel will bring at this juncture of the demon invasion.

Sophia had never seen an angel before, and at this moment, even just looking at Diana from afar, she felt like she was facing a mountain.

Thinking about it, Angel Diana had already circled the hole.

When she stopped, suddenly, all around her stopped.

The flowing winds stopped, the treetops stopped, the white clouds wandering in the sky stopped, and even the whispers of the people suddenly stopped at this moment.

There was no coercion, it seemed to be natural, and everyone stopped talking.

Standing next to the pit, Diana raised her eyes, her blue eyes turned white, and a golden cross appeared in the center of her pupils. Her long hair floated and her body slowly levitated into the air.

"This is ......," Mo Ya was shocked.

Sophia's mind was buzzing, blank.

The legendary magic of the Great Retrospection!

The blood on Diana's face was fading rapidly. The floating body also trembled due to the sharp consumption, up and down.

However, above the crater in front of her, a ball of light appeared.

The time for the light to exist is only a short second.

But for this second, it was enough.

The crowd was silent. Everyone clearly saw that in that second of light, a black-haired young man with a magic pen was engrossed.

A moment later, the sharp and cold voice of the priest was heard.

"Heresy!"

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

Roy's life is tense and monotonous.

After changing to a hammer. Roy's swings per round were reduced to thirteen.

After all, the weight of this hammer is a full two hundred kilograms heavier than the original. Don't underestimate these two hundred kilograms. This is not a cargo, it can be carried on the shoulder, just move somewhere and put it down. Instead, you can only rely on arm strength and waist and abdominal strength to continue to swing. It's not that easy.

If it weren't for the first phase of training, which laid the foundation for Roy, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to pick a hammer. Now he can play thirteen hammers, which is a remarkable achievement compared to the previous one.

As a necromancer, Austin has a thorough understanding of the human body after hundreds of years of research. What Roy's condition was, he knew at a glance. Now that this hammer is changing, it is almost at Roy's limit.

In addition to the sharp decrease in the number of hammers, the meditation that had already touched the edge. I can't get in now. This feeling made Roy very unhappy. It's like it's easy to hook up with a girl, but it's at the last moment of affection, but someone forcibly separates you to hook up with another strange girl.

What a thing!

However, Roy also understands Austin's hard work to torture himself so much, but he just keeps silent and buries his head in iron every day.

Three days later. Roy was accustomed to a 700-kilogram hammer and the number of hammers per round. Raised to thirty hammers. Seven days later, Roy was once again in a meditative state while he was forging. And to his surprise, as soon as he entered the meditative state this time, he kept it for a full three minutes.

In these three minutes, not only did the speed of the Demon Fighting Source Power increase far faster than ordinary meditation. And the number of swings has also increased suddenly. By the tenth day, Roy was able to pull out a full seventy hammers in one round.

Naturally, at this time, Austin called a halt again.

But this time it doesn't take place in Austin. Roy himself obediently climbed into the jar that had been prepared, and lay on the edge of the jar and watched the noodles cook himself.

Seeing that this kid was still confused in the face of this kind of pain that was not only inhuman, but also not skeleton, Noodles really wanted to cook him.

Eight hours later, when Roy crawled out of the jar, his fighting spirit had risen to the pinnacle of the five-star of justice. At the same time, the magic power also reached the five-star Cheng dΓΉ of the Dragon Moon Magician.

This time, without Austin saying it, Roy himself honestly picked up the No. 3 hammer, which weighed a full thousand kilograms.

Day after day, Roy buried his head and picked up the hammer in his hand again and again. At this time, on the surface, he was forging that piece of black and cold iron pith. But in fact, he himself was like that piece of black and cold iron pisol, refining more and more solidified in the forging again and again.

And at this stage, in addition to forging, Austin also began to add other aspects of cultivation for Roy.

The first is necromancy.

In fact, at the height of Austin, any magic is free.

However, as a necromancer, necromancy is the essence of Austin. Whether it was the name of the Prince of Terror spread all over the continent back then, or S

As a necromancer, his own student actually used natural elemental magic and even knightly combat skills as the main means of combat, which really annoyed Austin.

This is simply trampling on the dignity of a necromancer.

One day, after chatting about the current shape of the Salvation Continent, Austin looked at the worried Roy and asked, "Worried?"

Roy nodded.

Although he is on this side of the Broken Sky Mountain Range, his heart is always concerned about the salvation continent.

For now, the situation in Lulian seems to be stable.

The southern army of Feilie has been destroyed, the major ports along the coast have been recovered, and the minds of the Feilie Empire are all focused on the invasion of the demons, and now Lulian is the safest and most stable place. Mai'er and the others are in the Green Tower Manor, with the protection of Adolf and Sophia, and there is no danger for the time being.

However, after more than a year of war, coupled with the invasion of the demons, the consequences of the guide have gradually begun to appear.

The Salvation Continent is barren and bitterly cold, and food has always been a problem that plagues every empire and every city-state. This time, the Philae Empire used the province of Lulian as a place of attack, precisely to seize the grain production area.

And in the major city-states of the Land of Chaos, it is not uncommon for people to kill people for a bread and to break out wars for a small piece of grain-producing land.

It can be said that the ecology of the entire redemption continent is in a fragile balance. Not to mention a war that engulfs all of humanity, even a local natural disaster can destroy this balance.

Lulian was an important grain producer of the Solan Empire. It is also an important piece of the ecological balance domino of the land of redemption. Something went wrong with this domino, and it set off a chain reaction.

For now, this problem is only in Solan, and if there is a period of recuperation, it may be resolved. But at this juncture, the demons captured the Holy City and came to redeem the continent. This reality is like a slash on this fragile balance line.

In just over twenty days, the province of Mostok in the Pompeii Empire had fallen. A large number of refugees poured into other provinces.

It is said that there is already a food shortage in the nearby provinces. The lords of many regions are even more vigilant against refugees than against demons. Many refugees did not die at the hands of the demons, but fell on the way to flee with hunger and cold. Everything that could be eaten along the way was swept away, and even the bark of the trees was stripped naked.

Once this situation continues, Roy can't imagine what it will be like. At that time, not to mention ordinary civilians, I'm afraid that even the army that resists the demon clan will fall into the predicament of not having enough to eat.

Moreover, such a sight, it will not be too far away.

With such a terrifying expansion speed of the demons, it won't be long before a spark falls from the land of redemption like a dry grassland. The flames will spread at a speed unimaginable.

Having been on the move since childhood, Roy knows what hunger is like better than anyone else. It also knows better than anyone that a famine will be more terrible than the most brutal war. Therefore, when Austin asked, "Do you know what is the most serious danger in the land of redemption right now?", Roy replied without hesitation, "Grain." ”

Austin nodded approvingly. It is indeed not easy for a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy to be able to point out the biggest hidden danger of human beings.

You must know that most teenagers of this age may still be staring at the victory or defeat of the war between humans and demons, staring at the comparison of combat effectiveness, and they can't think of what is behind it at all.

"So, have you ever thought about what you will do to resist the attack of the demons at the last moment of life and death if a large number of humans die?" Austin asked.

Roy was stunned. Then, he stared blankly at Austin.

"Seemingly, you know. Austin said slowly, "I haven't really faced the demons, and I will never know how terrible the demons are." At the height of our time, humanity was still defeated, so what are our chances of winning now?"

His white fingers rested lightly on Roy's shoulder.

"Never underestimate the brutality of this war, and if some people die, others can survive, and that's a blessing. ”

Austin left.

Looking at his back, Roy had only one picture in his mind over and over again.

Countless human beings have fallen in hunger and cold, reduced to bones. Then, under the call of necromancy, they stood up and threw themselves into the battle against the demons. Heaven and earth have turned red. Only these white figures, shaking.

This picture is so brutal.

It's crazy...... The outline I wrote yesterday was overturned when I discussed it with Grilled Fish today. So much so that when I wrote this chapter, I couldn't fully sort it out later. However, I promised to update it today, but I must also leave it behind and write it out first.

I'll try to keep it updated. But if the update is unstable in the past two days, everyone will be more tolerant, wait for me to think about it more...... (To be continued......)
