Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Beginning of the War
Outside the city of Quarema
The Demon Legion and the First Deacons set up camp forty kilometers away from the city, and released the maze and hidden formations outside, from the outside, if people who don't know much about formations come here, they can't find out in the army, he can only see the same landscape as before.
There were three cardinals who followed the First Deacons to Quarema, and the rest remained in the Inquisition. Where did Drisley go?
He was in the Holy City, and he was in the ChΓ’teau de la Papal.
The Pope sat on the throne and looked at Dressley under the throne, without any expression, he asked casually: "Brother, how are you doing over there, are you okay?" Dressley bowed slightly, "Drag your blessing, everything is fine in the Inquisition, but you are here." Brother, I heard that there is some commotion among the faithful!" the Pope waved his hand helplessly. "It's not all you, all the people who can live in the Holy City are princes and nobles, how can they not panic when they know that the Holy City has become the frontline?"
Drisley was speechless. After a moment of silence, he whispered, "Our army is expected to arrive in Quarema today. β
The Pope spread his hands helplessly and said, "This time the incident is irreversible?
"Of course, brother, I have to tell you that yes and really can't be trusted, you should be sure of your judgment!"
Hearing this, the Pope was not annoyed. He asked rhetorically, "You have been a faithful believer in the Lord before, who has the power to change your mind?"
"My teacher. Drisley said calmly, "He told me everything. β
"You actually know how to apprentice!" The Pope looked surprised, "Then the strength of your teacher ......"
"Yes, he has reached the point of God. β
The Pope stepped down from the throne, and he paced back and forth, "Your army goes to Quarema." Then, you will definitely be flanked by our army, but if you dare to do so, it shows that you must have something to rely on. However, if your second and third deacons attack the city of Yahe at the same time, you will run the risk of being surrounded and annihilated by our side, so it is impossible for your other two armies to move, so that the force that wants to deal a devastating blow to our army in the city of Yahe can only be overwhelming......" The Pope stopped pacing, he turned to look at Drysley, his eyes rounded, "One man against one city?!"
Drisley shook his head, and the Pope walked back and forth excitedly, "Can one person's strength be so strong?"
"Brother, you people will definitely not be able to stop the teacher, I suggest you leave quickly. β
The Pope didn't have the idea of desperately resisting, "I'll go, when I see the power of God." I will definitely go, you don't have to persuade me anymore. Seeing the Pope say this, Drisley also left, and before leaving, he passed on all the information about the world of Pompeii to the Pope. "Hopefully, when it comes to the decisive battle, you will make the right choice. β
The Pope quickly consulted the message. After reading it, he fell silent, it was naturally not difficult to understand these things in his realm, and with his previous guesses, he was almost certain that the situation in Yahweh's world was basically the same as what Dreisley had provided him. Alas, it seems to the popes of my generation that the Church must be destroyed?
The Pope immediately summoned two cardinals under his command, and as the Pope's direct confidants, the two bishops naturally followed closely around the Pope. They made the same decision as the Pope. As for the other members of the Church, the Pope has no control over it, the relationship within the Church is complicated, and such a shocking message is not acceptable to them. The three of them decided to stay put, and first see if Karthas's strength was really that strong.
In the evening, the city of Yahe is very sacred when it is illuminated by the afterglow of the sun, so a large number of believers choose to pray at this time, and the church bell rings seven times, and the night slowly falls. A figure stood outside the closed city gate, he caressed the wall with his hand, there was a trace of remembrance in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared, his eyes became cold, and his body moved into the city.
Due to the curfew that had been in place for some time, there was no one to be seen at night except for the two legionnaires patrolling the city. Therefore, the sudden appearance of an unknown figure in a black robe naturally attracts the attention of the patrolling soldiers.
A knight with a spear walked over and said, "Hey, there's a curfew in the city, and you have to come with us by law." β
"What if I don't go?" suddenly a bony hand crept up on the knight's spear. The knight reacted quickly, discarded the spear, drew his sword, and slashed it off like a black robe. Unexpectedly, the black robe was not damaged at all, but his sword fell into the black robe, and the knight wanted to pull out the sword with angry eyes, but the black-robed man did not give him this opportunity, and he probed his bones. Poof! The knight spurted out a mouthful of blood, and he looked at his chest in disbelief, which had been completely pierced by his bony hand. Until he died, he did not see the face of the black-robed man.
As the knight fell weakly, the other knights around him also noticed the situation. Seeing their companions fall, they all rushed over angrily, and the spears in their hands were pointed directly at the man in black.
The man in black did not panic at all, he took ghostly steps and rushed towards the knights, because patrolling in the city, the knights could not ride horses, so the power of the charge seemed to be slightly insufficient, plus there were only seven people in the squad, and one died first, there were only six people. The figure of the man in black appeared and disappeared from time to time, and every time he appeared, the bone hand would take a life, and all six patrol knights fell to the ground in six breaths.
After another breath, the black-clothed man tapped the ground with his skeletal hand, and the knight who had been lying on the ground stood up again, but they all turned into skeletons! With ghostly fire flashing in his eyes and a large hole in his chest that had been pierced, he picked up a spear in tattered armor and followed the man in black forward.
Naturally, what happened in the city could not confuse the three popes. "Could that black-robed man be the necromancer Karthas?"
"Looking at the way he looks, it's probably just that, it's a powerful tool. One of the cardinals muttered, "But is this really the level of the bare-handed forbidden spell that the chief judge said?"
"Keep watching. Wait until the end of the day. The Pope said softly.
While the Pope was speaking, the black-robed man had already attacked and killed three teams with seven knights. There were now more than twenty people behind him. The patrol in the city, a total of ten black-robed men, obviously did not want to waste time, and he led the undead straight to the Third Legion station.
More than twenty undead half-knelt on the ground and faced the black-robed man, the black-robed man stretched out his bone hand, pointing to the sky, and silver-white energy continued to emerge from the heavenly spirit cover of these undead knights and gathered together in the air to form the shape of a sword. As their strength drained, the undead were unable to maintain a half-kneeling position and fell to the ground, turning into a corpse again.
And the silver energy sword in the air was also basically formed, the black-robed man's bone hand flickered, and the energy sword in the air seemed to have a connection with him, and the bone hand quietly made a chopping posture. The energy sword also fell silently.
When this sword fell, it was also surprisingly quiet, and even when the energy sword completely exploded in the garrison of the Third Legion, there was no sound at all. The black-robed man stepped forward and walked calmly towards the station, where a neat line of undead was waiting for him around the dilapidated building. Needless to say, these undead are all troops of the Third Legion. Their bodies are broken, and some of them are only half of their bodies, but the blazing ghost fire in their eyes still tells people that they are strong. About half of the Third Army was here. But they couldn't even resist. This was something that even the Pope did not expect.
"I'm afraid this method really has that kind of strength. However, it's too boring for our people to be slaughtered, so notify the Guardian Magic Regiment and the remaining troops of the Third Wizard Legion to start fighting!"
The news spread quickly, and Dipo, the head of the Third Magic Regiment, who learned the news, quickly started to work on the deputy head of another station, Dika, the two brothers have been in charge of the Third Magic Regiment for a long time, and now the enemy has arrived, and it is said that Dika should have rumored to ask him, but until now there has been no letter, could it be that they have begun to fight?
Before he could think about it, the black-robed man had already come to visit him with his undead Third Magic Legion.
Outside the headquarters of the Third Magic Regiment, the army of the undead has begun its first wave of attacks. With the blessing of the magic of the black-robed man, the undead legion of nearly a thousand people began to attack the third legion!
Before the outpost of the Third Magic Regiment could react, they were stunned by the undead magic of the black-robed man. It was a spell that bordered on a forbidden spell, destroying the entire outpost in an instant.
This ninth-level magic, although very powerful, also attracted the attention of the third magic group, and the magicians who were still resting all got up one by one and tightened their staffs. Before them, the knights had already rushed to the legion of the undead. These were the only two thousand knights left of the Third Legion, riding warhorses and spears in their arms to charge the undead legion.
When he saw that magic, Dipo had already asked the Holy See for help, and being able to cast such a magic was definitely not something that he could cope with as a new cardinal. The answer given by the Holy See was quick, and the Apologetic Order could arrive within five minutes. Hearing this, Dipo walked out of the command room and quickly gathered the remaining two thousand magicians to chant fourth-level magic together, while he began to chant eighth-level fire magic. Five minutes! That's enough time to unleash the first round of magic!
