In order to suppress the rebellion in the northern Valley of Atonement, the Holy Council of the Holy City made a decision to send a large number of legions of light north to the Valley of Atonement. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Trying to nifle the rebellion in the Valley of Atonement, mobilizing an army of this size is very rare for the Church of Light.

After all, this is more than twenty legions, which is usually the case in a state of war, or when a large-scale campaign is launched.

Fortunately, there has been no war in this land for more than 30 years, and after two generations of recuperation, the people are very prosperous.

Otherwise, there would be no way to gather such an army in a short period of time, in fact, under normal circumstances, only 20,000 people are enough to control the situation.

But the Holy Council decided to send more than 50,000 troops in order to show their strength and show the people of the land, especially those who have been hiding in the shadows and have not given up for more than thirty years, that they are the rightful masters of the land.

Any act of rebellion will be suppressed in the shortest possible time, the symbolic meaning is far greater than the actual meaning, in fact, no matter how you look at it, the difference between the two sides is too large, what the Bishops of Light need to do is to wait in the Tower of Light for the good news.

However, after they had waited for more than a week, the panicked scout rushed to the Tower of Light and was intercepted by the soldiers.

When he was brought to the Bishops of Light, he was still discussing how to deal with the Bishops of the Far Eastern Army, who had dared to invade the sacred land protected by the Goddess of Light, after putting down the rebellion in the north, and the silver cup in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang".

"What are you talking about? The Legion of Light sent to the north has been completely defeated? What are you kidding? That's twenty-eight legions, fifty-six thousand! It will be defeated in such a short period of time? There should be a limit to the nonsense, so that it will be punished by the Goddess of Light!"

Griff trembled with rage, and he shouted at a shrill voice, and not only him, but the other Bishops of Light had stunned expressions on their faces.

A rebellion that could have been crushed by 20,000 men was lost, even though the number of troops had increased by nearly three times?

It was an unbelievable thing to look at, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, and the air became extremely dull.

"In fact, it was true, two armies numbering sixteen thousand men were crushed by two cavalry units, and I witnessed their attack, which surged in the night like the demons of hell, and in an instant swept us to the ground. ”

"We tried to resist, but it was as if they had demonic power, their swords could not cut through the armor they were wearing, and the blades in their hands could easily pierce through our chests, and it was night, so we didn't have time to react before we were crushed. ”

The scout had participated in the previous battle, and as he remembered what had happened a few days ago, he still had deep fear in his eyes and palpitations.

"What about the Valley of Atonement, isn't there still an army of 20,000 people in the Valley of Atonement, and are these 20,000 people also crushed? Even if it is 20,000 lambs, it is not so easy to dominate them all, right? And they still have armor on their bodies and weapons in their hands, how can they fight a lost war?"

Griff was still in disbelief, shaking and gasping for air, his sunken eyeballs bloodshot.

"The army of the Valley of Atonement was defeated faster, and they took advantage of our attack on the heretics to kill from the rear of the flanks, where the terrain was flat, and although General Lennon tried to adjust their formation to resist, they were so fast that they broke the formation in a few moments. ”

"After the formation was cut, all of us fled in fear, this completely became the prey of their hunting, General Lennon was caught up on the way to escape, and his head was cut off with a knife, he died We are even more afraid, they are definitely demons, really demons from hell!"

The scout was already a little incoherent at this point, and it was obvious that he was frightened, and it was completely instinctive that he returned to the Holy City to deliver the news.

"You bastards, unexpectedly, can't even win a few thousand cavalry, what a bunch of complete waste, drag him down, and purify his soul in the name of the goddess of light, you cowards don't deserve to survive here, drag him down for me!"

Griff yelled in frustration and ordered the guards to drag the sprawling scout down for execution, but the scout still muttered to himself.

"It's really a demon, only a demon has such terrible power, the light is about to fall, the darkness is coming? They are really demons, I don't want to go to hell, don't drag me down, no, hell is not my destination, this will soon become the crucible of hell!"

The scout was still yelling as he struggled, his desperate voice resounding through the hall, and the Bishops of Light exchanged glances.

None of them spoke, and remained silent in a tacit manner, because they realized the seriousness of the problem, which was not trivial.

"It seems that we are still a little underestimated of the situation, now that the Valley of Atonement has fallen, the four cities of Spirits, Shura, Demons, and Yellow Springs have fallen, these are the territories of the Dark Holy Court in the past, it seems that their purpose is obvious, that is, to completely liberate this area and let the Dark Holy Court resurgence. ”

Griff sighed deeply, and he sat down a little dejected, the situation was now beyond his control.

"But if you want the Dark Holy See to rise again, one thing is essential, that is, you must open the Shadow City, but the Shadow City mysteriously disappeared many years ago, although occasionally people see it, but it is confirmed that it is just an illusion, and the Shadow City is the banner of the Dark Holy Court. ”

"If we hadn't entered Shadowcity and opened the Tower of Darkness, the night would never have come, so we don't have to worry so much for the time being, there is still plenty of time to prepare for it, we have been operating this land for so many years, and it is deeply entrenched, and it is not so easy to shake. ”

"Now it seems that Archbishop Gregor is really a bad man, alas, may the goddess of light bless him, Bishop Griff, now that you are the agent of the Holy Council, you decide what we should do next, whether to choose to defend the base we occupy, or to take the initiative?"

After some discussion, the other Bishops of Light asked Griff about his next mission, and Griff was silent for a long time.

"Now this situation is more defensive, our advantage is that the power of faith is still deep-rooted and unshakable, as long as our believers still support us and recognize the goddess of light, we are invincible, and taking the initiative in this situation will weaken our strength. ”

Griff sighed and made his decision, but just then outside the door of the Holy Council Hall, a voice came.

"No, we must not just sit idly by, we must take the initiative!"
