Volume 1 The Dark Gold Puppet of the Empire Chapter 28 Descending
The team that confronted the castle was a classic combination of five grand knights in sumptuous armor, three tulip mages, and two grand arcanists, and only an honorary country like the Holy Empire, which was rich in high-level mages, could build a small battlefield with the luxury of equal ratio of warriors to mages.
Ten horses of superior foot strength did not move, five sharp spears glittered in the sun, and the mages' chant-level staffs had already given birth to signs of magic, with white crystal balls or amethyst blocks as the core, and energy veins flowed irregularly and creaked in the form of lines.
"When will I have such a family? Augustine sighed in his heart, the aristocracy of the empire has calculated that it will cost about 120,000 Caesar gold coins to train a private tulip magician, while the great knight needs 140,000, and the young knight group that seduced half of the attackers adds up to only fifty or sixty thousand Caesar gold coins, which is why the empire is still an empire controlled by nobles to this day, not an empire that civilians can control.
Augustine knew why Elizabeth's alchemist and puppeteer didn't show up, because they planned to turn the Knights of Cannon Fodder into an army of the undead from the beginning, turning them from cannon fodder in Stango's castle into cannon fodder for turning around and attacking the underground castle, and this would also effectively disperse the forces of the cosmo, and it was necessary to divide the strength to fight on two fronts, and any conspirator behind the scenes knew that Augustine's "giants" lacked reliable subordinates who could come in handy more than anyone else.
The Imperial Capital's bigwigs, who are hiding in a dark corner to watch the play, have begun to see Black Swan Lake as an artificial colosseum, with the weak Cosmo Archons on one side and a steady stream of expensive chess pieces sent into Black Swan Lake on the other.
Philip and Professor Shirley brought the two undead golems behind Augustine, and the archon, who was standing alone at the gate of the castle of Shinago, turned his head and said, "Transfer the puppet command to me, and then go back, Miss Philey, tell the sheep's horns, please be ready to make all the warriors on the first floor of the basement into undead." ”
Philip and Professor Shirley, who are known for their two extreme personalities, calm and dissolute, also turned pale when they heard the shocking news, but they both turned around obediently and walked towards the spiral staircase without resistance.
This is the fundamental reason why the Sacramental Congregation is far above the remaining 2 houses and 8 ministries of the Holy See, this gloomy organization will never give a pedantic clergy who only understands esoteric doctrines to survive, almost all members of the Sacramental Congregation are absolutely subordinate to the three spiritual and power leaders, and the executive power born of the Inquisition is a peak that is insurmountable for all the official institutions of the Holy Empire.
The Undead Golem's [Transition] procedure was not complicated, and after Augustine saw the [New Sanctioner] two units that could only be called weapons walked up to him, and faced ten powerful enemies who were at least a level above them without emotion.
If it is a human being, even if it does not retreat, it will instinctively produce some negative emotions, but they have been squeezed out of their souls and are fearless, unless it is something sacred, they will be afraid as a product of darkness, which is the advantage of puppets, but the disadvantage is the lack of flexibility of living beings, which has always been the bottleneck of all forbidden spells tirelessly seeking to break through.
As if Augustine's sensitive identity was sometimes lethal enough, the knights and mages alike stripped off their official medals and family crests so that they did not leave Augustine with tricky evidence against the masterminds behind the scenes.
"Riding a horse to trample on the Black Swan Lake will pay a small price. ”
Augustine whispered and slurred, and the conductor specifically asked the horns to set up a large amount of [base metal] and [ugly element] in their bodies The filthy undead puppet rushed forward, there was no way, he had just recovered from the last time he was overdrawn in the Clockwork Orange Nuclear Weight, and this time he had to take a large mouthful of the Conch-level Poppy Hot Spring worth 30,000 Caesar Gold Coins, but unlike the Clockwork Orange, after inserting the Titan Dragon's Eye into a vein point that was much more abundant than the Raven Bazaar, he seemed to be arrogant to the point of not relying on the epic staff to fight the enemy today, and the black and red gloves still gathered two oversized high-purity magic balls.
Helplessly, he only has a "small" core weight whose capacity is only extended to the level of a mid-level magician, and can only exert magic skills below level 25, and the only thing he can strive to do is to exert the most unexpectedly destructive and penetrating power of these most basic and cheap skills.
A large area of magical orbs converged like hail above Augustin's head, and then smashed them all into the opposite side with a wave of Augustine's hands.
This is in the general perception of the majority of magicians, it is a kind of chicken rib skill that looks very spectacular and grandiose but does not reach the expected penetration and killing, the same power is widely applied to the surface and focused on the point, which of the two is more dangerous, obviously, especially for the high-level knights who are almost all wearing high anti-magic armor and blessed by faith on the battlefield, it is almost possible to achieve [perfect immunity] to all low-level and large-scale magic, that is, the armor and faith power carefully crafted by special materials have a bonus of 1+1 = to the flesh itself2, instead of the general 1+1<2.
Hera stood on the top floor of the castle of Sinago, staring at the vast expanse of magic with a puzzled expression, and the only unusual detail she noticed was that most of the orbs of the rain of magic were not simply moving in a straight line, and about two-thirds of the small orbs were spiraling forward with some kind of purpose.
The two great knights rode forward and faced the two undead golems who did not know whether they were alive or dead.
Tulip Mages and Grand Arcanists sneered at the use of their respective staffs to create skills that were often above level forty, responding to what they saw as the childishness and frivolity of the young mage.
"Augustine, what the hell do you want to do? Do you just waste precious nuclear weight until it is exhausted?Are you really sure that you are fighting five peak me face to face?" Hera frowned, clutching the two tomes and the golden puppet, not daring to miss a single detail, she is a great knight with rich combat experience, knowing that a servant is crucial to the entry point of the battlefield, and can even turn the tide of battle, she has no idea that she is already sweating.
Especially seeing that most of Augustine's carefully controlled magic balls were destroyed or assimilated by the magician's numerous lightning chains and the same large-scale "light bath" as the arcanist, Hera seemed to be on the battlefield in place of Augustine.
As a mainstream dual-class master with both knight and magic classes breaking level 10, Hera Bolseforler can probably challenge a combination of a tulip mage and a big knight alone, and whether she can win depends on whether the opponent is skillful in cooperating, her approximate win rate is around 60%, after all, there are very few perfect partners on temporary battlefields.
The great knight pierced the undead puppet almost at the same time with one shot, picking up the tail of the spear and preparing to smash the two unclean filthy species at Augustine, only to find that they were holding the spear with both hands, even if their bodies were pierced through, and their feet were pushed backwards by the spear infused with huge inertia impulse, drawing two deep marks on the ground, they were still stubbornly nailed to the ground in the end, this is the power of the top 9th-order puppet, ignoring the pain, and strengthening their flesh to the level of perversion comparable to the barbarian orcs of the Muse Continent.
Before the Ministry of the Sacraments fights against all the dark species, the weapons will be taken to the cathedral to be "baptized" and "blessed" by priests of at least bishop level, but the master behind these knights did not expect Augustine to move out two unplanned undead puppets, so the spear was immediately infected by the base metal and ugly elements inside the puppet's body.
These two things are diametrically opposed to the nature of the [God Element], they are born to be the darlings of heretical mages, and Lolita's "Fanny Affairs Hall" has a game that uses these two things to create a pool, and then let the knights and priests throw it in, and the knights and priests who are "polluted" will not be purified by the Holy See for the rest of their lives, unless there are archbishops or above who are willing to pity them.
The two undead golems burst out with great power, snapping off the two spears, and then continued to rush forward with the spear head in hand.
Undeterred, the two Grand Knights drew their Templar ivory swords, similar to Descartes', and prepared to cut off their heads.
Augustine still tirelessly used a large amount of magic rain to confront the mages, and the only result was some sporadic magic balls smashed on the knight's high anti-magic armor, but for the big knights, it was completely negligible, except for one person who would use a spear to puncture the magic ball, and two of them didn't bother to move at all, allowing the magic ball to hit the armor and explode small sparks, in order to reflect their completely different physical qualities from the mages.
The three Tulip Magicians seem to be a little impatient with these petty fights, and each brews a level 50+ big magic.
Augustine swallowed a small sip of the hot spring, not paying attention to the entanglement of the knight of honor with the undead golem from beginning to end, and looked up slightly at the top floor.
Hera, who had been thinking about whether to throw the papal canon or the golden puppet first, chose the latter with intuition.
As she threw the little one that Elizabeth had carefully treasured into battle, Augustine chanted a long string of incantations before finally shouting two words, "Come." ”
The golden golem, which was less than ten centimeters in size, shone like the sun in the sky.
A behemoth slammed into the battlefield.
3 meters tall, like Satan enshrined in heresy, it has two huge golden horns, and black flames burn on it.

(Looks like it's a little bit close to 1200.) Today's two chapters are 7,000 words. The third chapter will be rushed out, but not necessarily before the early hours of the morning, so tomorrow will definitely be more than three more words. PS: I don't think the book "Celestials" is by any means a work that can be lighthearted and enjoyable at the beginning, but my goal now is to clearly construct a bizarre divine empire in an aristocratic world within 300,000 words, and 1 million words to let all readers have an accurate understanding of the world's powerful territory, magic field, knight system and religious beliefs. Then, 2 million words, can make the reader say, this is a good book. By the end of the day, they will say, this is a classic. Of course, at the end of the day, I'm just telling an interesting story. )
