Chapter 1149: The Holy Judge Malus
The idea of entering the world and the idea of seclusion spread among the tribes of the wasteland almost at the same time, and soon became the main idea of each tribe, and all the tribes of the wasteland unconsciously converged towards these two ideas, and finally formed the outer and inner rings of the current wasteland tribes.
Among them, the inner ring is naturally the hermit faction, they have entered the deeper part of the wasteland with several large tribes such as the Moon Clan as the core, and they still have some contact with the outside world in the early days, but in recent years they have completely cut off contact with the outside world.
The Shaman Mountain is the representative of the idea of joining the world, and several other large tribes have gathered around the Holy Mountain, united with the remaining small tribes to move to the wasteland closer to the various kingdoms of the Moisan Continent, and in order to better integrate into the civilizations of various countries, they also modified the most primitive shamanic doctrines, established an organization similar to the church, and also formed the mother of nature, the belief in the main god, and the Muling Society is one of the representatives of the outer ring tribal forces.
Between the inner and outer rings of the wasteland tribe, there is a naturally formed isolation zone, which was originally an abandoned tribal settlement, originally only occupied by ordinary beasts, but as ordinary beasts continue to mutate into monsters, over time it has become a place where mutated monsters are entrenched, and the inner ring and the outside world should also have something to do with the formation of this isolation zone.
I have to say that after this ideological split and the adjustment of the power of the wasteland tribe, the overall strength has not only not weakened, but has increased a lot, because the originally scattered tribal forces have begun to condense into a whole, even if there is no country established in the outer ring of the wasteland now, but their influence on the entire civilization of the Moisan continent cannot be underestimated, as can be seen from the fact that the Muling Society can become one of the forces that influence the decision-making of the Odolin government.
Leo put down the information about the wasteland tribe in his hand, and was about to say something, when he spread to the spiritual network around the entire city of Odolin, he suddenly sensed that an extremely powerful divine power of the Lord of the Sky entered the scope of his spiritual network, and approached the city of Odoline.
The owner of this Sky Lord's divine power did not have any intention of restraining his divine power as if he was demonstrating, and it was conceivable that at this moment he should be full of light and extremely eye-catching, once he passed through the forest and entered the city limits of Odorin, he would inevitably become the focus of everyone's attention.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Leo's expression a little unusual, Sylvia couldn't help but ask.
"There is a clergy from the Church of the Lord of the Sky approaching. Leo replied simply, and then directly used the spiritual energy to capture the details of the spirit net and show it to everyone through illusions.
I saw a Sky Lord Holy Warrior wearing heavy armor and holding a holy scription war hammer in his hand was smashing a mutated monster trying to escape to the ground with a hammer, and the flying flesh and blood were blocked out by his divine power, without affecting his near-perfect divine majesty in the slightest.
Although, because the spirit network had to sacrifice the accuracy of the sensing in order to expand the sensing range, it was impossible to completely restore the appearance of this holy warrior, but just the slightly blurred face constructed was enough to prove that his appearance could be called a model of handsomeness and majesty.
"Holy Judge Malus!" Seeing this person, Sylvia and the others immediately recognized this extremely striking holy warrior, and their faces became much more serious.
Although Leo had heard this name for the first time, he had information about this person in his head, and this information came from the memory of the bishop of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, and among the countless memory fragments that Leo extracted, this memory was very complete and full of awe, which showed what kind of status this Holy Judge Malus had in the mind of the bishop of the church with a high status.
Sylvia thought that Leo didn't know anything about Marus, the Holy Judge, so she quickly explained.
The Holy Inquisitor Marus is a legendary figure in the Church of the Lord of the Sky after the Fog Plague, and at first he was just an ordinary guard of honor saint warrior stationed in the mountain city of Beranto, and his daily task was to stand in front of the door of the temple and act as a façade during various church ceremonies.
If there were no accidents, he would probably have nothing to do with killing in his life, but with the emergence of mutant monsters after the fog disaster, the manpower of the Church of the Lord of the Sky has become insufficient, and the original honor guard has to join the frontline team to resist the invasion of mutant monsters.
During a mutant monster siege of the mountain castle of Beranto, because of a personnel transfer mistake of the general of the defenders of the mountain castle of Beranto, the already fragile mountain castle defense was flawed, and a large number of monsters broke through the city wall defense and poured into the city to slaughter civilians.
Malus was a member of the reserve at the time, and at this time he was also sent to the city to clear out the monsters, but their manpower was too small, and most of them were recruits who had never been on the battlefield, so let alone clearing the monsters in the city, it was difficult to even protect themselves.
Soon the team led by Malus was killed to the point that he was the only one left, and he was also surrounded by more than a dozen mutant monsters, which can be said to be the line of life and death.
It's just that just when he was about to be killed by the mutant monster and eaten, he obtained the divine revelation very magically, and directly received the divine power infusion of the Lord of the Sky, and instantly possessed extremely powerful power, and at the same time, he could freely use a large number of divine techniques that only the top senior clergy could use.
With the blessing of the divine power of the Lord of the Sky, Malus quickly eliminated the mutated monsters in the city, and even the monsters besieging the mountain city were almost killed by him alone.
Subsequently, under the instruction of the church's higher-ups, he formed the Holy Inquisition Hall and the Holy Canon War Group to fight on behalf of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, and countless mutated monsters and heretics identified by the Church of the Lord of the Sky died under his canonical war hammer, and now the Church of the Lord of the Sky has settled more than ninety percent of the dioceses are all defeated by him.
It is precisely because of Malus's incomparable ability that he has also become the leader of the Orthodox Church, and he holds the position of the Grand Commander in the joint armed forces formed by the Orthodox Church and the high-ranking holy warriors of various churches, and half of the Orthodox Combined Arms in the Moisan Continent are under his command.
There is no doubt that in terms of the power at his disposal, the Holy Judge Malus is definitely one of the top few people in the Moissanite Continent.
Sylvia has dealt with and clashed with Malus, because in Malus's eyes, the witch is also a mutated monster and a heretic, even though the witch has been removed from the heresy list of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, he still stubbornly follows the much older heretical list.
Although Sylvia did not suffer in the conflict, she did not take advantage of it, and she could also feel the strength of Malus, because at that time Malus was just one person, and Sylvia had half of the First Witch Group by her side.
Now that Malus had suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Odoline, it was clear that he had come for the Thorn Hall and the Muling, and more likely for Sylvia.
If it was a few days ago, Sylvia might have given up the Dodd Group's various plans in Odoline and withdrawn Odoline because of the arrival of Marus, but now the situation is different, Sylvia is very confident in Leo's strength, so the look on her face does not show worry.
"He'll leave it to me!" After listening to Sylvia's account, Leo simply responded, then stood up and walked out of the room and up to the roof.
Sylvia didn't follow, and as if she had forgotten about the great threat of Marus, she continued to deal with the business at hand.
As for Sue and Emily, they were curious about how Leo was going to deal with Malus, and wanted to follow them, but reason pressed them to the couch again, because they knew that with their strength, even being a bystander might be dangerous.
After reaching the top of the building, Leo directly unfolded his psionic wings, flew quickly into the clouds in the sky, and then flew towards the direction where Malus was outside the city.
During the flight, Leo's mind quickly flashed Marus's information.
Compared to Sylvia, who can only obtain information about Malus through the outside world, Leo extracts more detailed information from the memories of the high-ranking bishops of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, and even has secrets that the general church leaders do not know, such as the true identity of Malus is the blood vessel of the Lord of the Sky.
With the return of the gods, some advanced divine techniques that could not be used in the past can also be used, and the divine descent technique is one of them.
Under normal circumstances, the descent of the gods is passive, and the church obtains the grace of the gods through some rituals, so that the incarnations of the gods come to the world and bless the believers, and the people who possess the gods when the incarnations of the gods come are generally the relatives of the gods or dependents.
However, the church leadership still has a kind of magic that actively guides the gods to descend, which can help the church leaders guide the gods to incarnate into their bodies at certain dangerous moments, so that they can temporarily obtain part of the power of the gods, but at the cost of losing a lot of life force, and some high-level clergy will even turn into ashes directly after the end of the god descent technique.
Therefore, in order to allow the high-level clergy who can use the Divine Descent to save their lives after performing the Divine Descent, and to be able to increase the number of times individuals can perform the Divine Descent, the Church of the Lord of the Sky, or almost all the churches in the Velen world, have conducted some experiments a long time ago.
However, most of these experiments ended in failure, and it was not until the blood therapy proposed by the medical school and the exchange transfusion theory of the blood wizard Lawrence that these experiments made some breakthroughs, and Malus was the most successful and the only successful case of these experiments.
This matter is a secret in the Church of the Lord of the Sky, only the top few high-ranking members of the church know about it, and the bishop who Leo extracted his memory also knows a little bit of this secret because of his special status, and the reason why they will keep this secret is because they can't imagine what will happen when the Holy Inquisitor Malus, who is regarded as a mortal enemy of heresy, knows that his existence is due to some heretical doctrines, according to their analysis, it is very likely that Malus will go crazy and even fall because of it.
Leo didn't intend to use this secret to lead Malus down, he was more interested in the power that Malus had.
According to the information in the bishop's memory, Leo learned that Malus had actually experienced two divine descent techniques, and after the divine descent was over, the divine power attached to him by the incarnation of the Lord of the Sky did not completely dissipate, but some of them were locked by the divine blood refined by special methods on his body, allowing him to have a near-constant divine descent technique.
Although this Divine Descent Technique will definitely be greatly reduced in strength compared to the real Divine Descent Technique, there is no difference between the two in essence, which is just right for Leo to learn more about the details of the Divine Descent Technique without danger, because judging from the current relationship between Sylvia and the Church of the Lord of the Sky, I am afraid that there will be more conflicts between the two in the future, and the more he understands the Divine Descent, the ultimate divine technique of the Church, the more he will be able to deal with possible crises in the future.
Leo's flight speed was very fast, and in less than a minute, he flew out of the city and into the mountains and forests outside the city, and when he flew over Malus, he didn't intend to say anything, he directly took away the psionic wings, and used a psionic blast behind him, accelerated his thrust, and fell towards Malus.
At the same time, he also cast a crystallized magic, condensing a crystallized warhammer in his hand that was identical to the Holy Codex Warhammer in Malus's hand, condensed a set of crystallized heavy armor on his body, and also wore a helmet to wrap his entire head, including his face.
As he approached Malus, he raised the crystallized warhammer in his hand and slammed it towards the top of Malus's head, driven by his rapidly falling body.
The attack came very suddenly, and Leo deliberately hid the energy plucking on his body through some methods, so that he was only a dozen meters away from the sky above Malus before he was discovered, and at this time Malus had no time to make any defensive moves.
However, although Malus was unable to make defensive moves, the divine power of the Lord of the Sky in his body was passively activated by Leo's attack, and a defensive aura similar to a psionic shield was instantly formed around Malus's body.
When Leo's crystallized sledgehammer smashed on the defensive aura, the aura immediately burst out with dazzling light, and in the light, countless symbols full of mysterious meanings quickly flashed, and a strong anti-shock force was generated out of thin air, shaking Leo in the air and flying out, and knocking all the trees encountered by flying out to the ground.
Although Malus was shocked by the surprise attack he had encountered, after all, he was a warrior who had experienced countless battles, and quickly calmed down, picked up the Holy Codex Warhammer, chanted the hymn of the Lord of the Sky, and rushed towards the direction where Leo was shocked and flew out, it seemed that he didn't intend to say any more nonsense, but knocked down the attacker first.
It's just that when he saw Leo standing up from the ground, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he was not surprised that Leo was not injured under the anti-shock, but was surprised by Leo's current appearance, because in addition to the different colors and materials of armor and weapons, he almost thought that it was another person standing in front of him.
