With the announcement of the Death Knight Lord, the invisible force collided with the priest's light shield, and countless cobweb-like rifts immediately exploded on the defensive barrier made of holy power. And Neham, who bore the brunt of the attack, had to open his rarely used light shield to defend himself, and he could not look back distractedly from the current enemy, so he could only deduce the general situation from the constant cracking sound behind him.

"The High Priest is the earthly spokesman of the morning light, how can you see it as you want? ”

Armed with the scepter of the Sun Emblem and draped in prayer-filled robes, Alysina led the high-ranking priests into battle. Their joining greatly relieved the pressure on the priest, and the broken light shield was quickly repaired, except for a few bold ones, most of the civilians took the opportunity to flee into the buildings outside the Shining Palace.

Sebrien's eyes froze, and he sneered after glancing back and forth at Arisina in archbishop's formal attire: "In just forty years, the position of archbishop has changed twice. Humans, so fragile. ”

Alicia immediately rebuked: "Shut up!

More than a dozen bright white rays of light shot out from the tip of the scepter, avoiding Neham in an arc and continuing to impact forward, and the souls that overflowed from the Great Sword Soul Eater were purified the moment they came into contact with it.

Faced with this imminent and inevitable blow, Cyberlion simply raised his left hand and palmed it outward. As if attracted by some kind of light, it actually merged into a beam and burrowed into his palm and disappeared.

All of the Dawnists, including Neam and Alysina, turned colored.

Elias and Hicks are opposites, both in terms of priesthood and attributes, and they are two forces that can never be compatible. Whether it is Rams, who has lost his favor. Even the Death Knight Lord of the Immortal Empire could not and should not absorb the divine power from the Dawn. The only possibility is that Cybelian was born in the Order. And to this day, he still retains the status of a believer in Dawn.

Fortunately, ordinary civilians could not see the clue to this, the massacre of civilians by the avenging army and the fall of the Archduke of Befast had already caused morale to drop to an unprecedented low, and if Cybelion revealed that it was originally from the Order of Dawn, the High Priest's painstaking efforts to sacrifice the sages to defend the royal capital would be in vain.

Thinking of this, Neam didn't care if the enemy still had a backhand, and resolutely launched the punishment of judgment that only the high-ranking Dawn Knight could use.

Unlike Alicina's Purifying Light, the Punishment of Judgment is a divine spell for living beings. Dedicated to the punishment of the flesh. He was to dispose of the Rams possessed by Cybelinth before it could be more unfavorable to the Dawn Cult, so that he could temporarily expel the Death Knight leader.

A huge pillar of light descended from the sky and devoured Rams's body. "Boom". Blazing flames erupted from the inside out, armor and clothing turned to ashes under the scorching power of the holy power, and flesh and blood were burned into bone shelves in an instant. This scene made the bold peeping civilians talk about it.

Because of the punishment of the trial, the tortured person will remain awake until the end. Seeing their bodies being scorched a little bit is also extremely hurtful to the hearts of the torturers, and many people go crazy before they can get through it. Because it is so cruel, the Dawn Sect rarely enforces it publicly.

"The last time she was punished by the Holy Flame was the princess of the regent royal family, this time it's not small, right?"

"Didn't you see him wearing the armor of the Knight of Dawn?"

"Shh......h It was Rams, the leader of the Knights of the Dawn, the number two of the Dawn Sect. ”

"No, after the Archduke of Befast, even the chief knight has rebelled. ”

Fear, doubt, anger quickly relayed through the crowd. The civilians looked at the Dawnists with suspicion and fear. As soon as the high priest announced that he would defend the new capital, a traitor appeared at the top of the order. Is Dawn powerless to fight against death, and has humanity come to the end of a strange road?

Seeing Rams's body completely reduced to ashes, the uneasiness in Neam's heart did not dissipate, but became more and more intense.

Alisina, who also sensed that something was wrong, was about to perform the purification technique, and a red dark light lit up from Rams's ashes, and in the blink of an eye, a ring was connected, which was a summoning circle!

Neham, who was closest to it, strode forward, trying to destroy it before it could finish summoning.

The red light flickered, and Neam flew upside down, smashing the fountain in the square and smashing a pillar in the corridor before stopping. Rising as fast as he could, Neuham staring at the humanoid skeleton that stepped out of the circle, holding a pitch-black two-handed greatsword in his hand. Compared to the previous Soul Eater, this one is as real as if the previous one was just a poor imitation. The blue flame of the soul rolled in the empty eye sockets, and everywhere it looked, it caused tremors.

This is the real undead, the real fear of the aura.

Deity?!

Neam and Alysina choked on their breath.

Cybrion was able to cross the Holy Light Barrier, which was defended by the Sages, and this was the last resort against the undead......

Soon, they found the answer.

The left hand of the Death Knight Lord has an undeserved mark - a golden ring, the color and round color of the sun, representing the dawn and the glory of high-ranking cultists.

Sebrien, the leader of the Death Knights, known as the three lords of the Immortal Empire, turned out to be a member of the Dawn Order!

"How can this be ......" Neam finally lost his usual composure.

Compared to Frost from the Otherworld, Cyberrion is even more mysterious, no one knows who the Death Knight's name was before his transformation, the only thing that is reliable is its human origin, and, before Frost became famous.

It has long been believed that Cybelian was either an imperial nobleman who died in battle in the northern theater or a folk warrior who volunteered to fight against the undead. No one would think about the Dawn Order, after all, as the god of order, Dawn would never allow the followers of Hicks, the god of death, to apostasy and defect to the Grim Reaper. Come to think of it, the undead were able to easily gain the upper hand in several southern invasions, not only because of Frost Cold's cunning, but also because of the help of traitors who were familiar with the Order.

Compared with Neham's dazedness, Alisina's expression was more unconcealable than shock, as if she had guessed who Cybrien was.

Can...... Cyberian became famous before Frost, it shouldn't be him, and it can't be him.

"Julian ......"

"What did you say?"

Alysina's muttering did not escape Neham's ears, and he jerked his head back to look at the archpriest with a stunned expression, despite Sebrien, who was a few steps away and could attack at any moment.

Julian, the name he was not unfamiliar with. The high priest before Francesca, forty years ago, with the rise of the storm sea, the undead launched the largest southern invasion, and Julian left alone to guard the Great Sanctuary, and the martyr hero who won a respite for the Order to retreat turned out to be a traitor!

"Are you mistaken?"

"No......" Alysina stared at the Skeleton Knight who had completely stepped out of the summoning circle, "How could I be mistaken for that stigmata, there is only one left-handed high-level Dawn Knight in a hundred years. ”

Due to the invasion of the undead, the high priests in recent centuries have been promoted by knights who are more skilled in combat, and Julian is left-handed, and the position of the stigmata is also different from that of ordinary cultists. After the fall of the Great Church, he became the only high priest who was not enshrined in the burial ground after the establishment of the Order, who would have thought that he would take refuge in death and transform into the undead.

"Even if he were Julian, how could he have retained the stigmata of Dawn after the Fall?" questioned Neum.

Stigmata is the glory that the morning sun bestows on the faithful, a symbol of divine favors, and a source of holy power. Rams was found to have lost his divine favor precisely because the stigma on the back of his hand had faded. Why can the former high priest who has been transformed into a dead soul still retain the stigma? Dawn and the Grim Reaper are mortal enemies, and it is impossible for them to remain divine after taking refuge in another god, which has never been done before in Edgar's history.

"Is this the time to argue about this?" said Alysina, whose back was soaked with cold sweat.

For a long time, Cybrion's rank has been legendary, and it has not crossed the realm of transcendent sanctification, but if it is really Julian, then it must be one of the few existences on earth that has become holy. The High Priest, who is the earthly spokesperson of Dawn, will receive a special gift from the gods at the moment of succession, and will be directly promoted to transcendent sanctification. Why was Julian, who was only one step away from being a god, being tempted by death and willing to be a little lord under his seat?

[My joining the Immortal Empire does not hinder my belief in Dawn. 】

Cyberion succeeded in interrupting the argument between the two, raising its left hand that caused confusion, the mark of the morning sun so vivid that it was impossible to ignore and its words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, slamming into everyone's hearts.

Worship two gods at the same time?

Sebrion suddenly recited the name of the Grim Reaper, and a black light fell from the sky, and Neam instinctively opened his light shield to defend himself, but the black light still penetrated the divine power of the morning light and enveloped his whole body. Neam felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he couldn't move. Seeing that Cyber raised the big sword in his hand and walked towards him, he couldn't help but shout in his heart, let alone defend against the enemy, he couldn't even move his fingers.

The high priest and the sages of the past dynasties could not escape from maintaining the operation of the barrier in the Hall of Glory. Although the High Priest has a wealth of experience in fighting against the undead, he is not at all pleasing to the Death Knight in close combat, and if he dies in battle, there is no one here who can resist Sebrien.

Watching the Death Knight swing his sword unhurriedly, some inappropriate fragments of memories popped into Neam's mind.

The rich but boring life of the aristocratic family in childhood, the hard but willing practice of the young order, and the depressed and cautious youth of youth. Francesca, Alisina, Doyle, Blake, Rams, the faces of the important people in their lives flashed one by one, and finally froze on the indifferent expressions that always made him angry.

I've heard that Link's first battle was Sebelion, and it would be nice if he was here...... (To be continued......)
