Chapter 52: Attacked

Today's weather is unusually refreshing, and there are not many clouds in the blue sky.

Each student has a brooch pinned to his chest, through which the position of each student can be confirmed.

Li Jun looked at the brooch on his chest, and the anxiety and vigilance in his heart became more and more intense, feeling like a monitor to prevent him from escaping halfway.

In the royal palace of the imperial capital, there was a large screen hanging high.

On the big screen, there are dense small red dots gathered together, and each small red dot represents a contestant.

His Majesty, the king of the Koro Empire, pointed his hand to a small red dot, and suddenly, a beautiful face floated out, and it was the space girl magician Norman Sina.

"This little girl is good, her soul talent is as high as ninety-five, and her affinity for the space system has reached ninety-four. King Koro smiled and said to the cardinal archbishop sitting on his right.

The cardinal nodded approvingly, and said, "Earlier, I reported to His Majesty the Pope, asking him to issue a decree appointing Normansna as one of the elders of the Church. ”

King Koro was taken aback and said, "Church Elders, my dear cardinal, is Normansna too young?"

The elders of the church are definitely high-ranking and powerful beings, not necessarily internal members of the church, but mostly strong people recruited by the church from the outside, and their status is equivalent to that of bishops in white clothes and gold stripes, second only to the pope and cardinal archbishops, and equivalent to the existence of guest ministers.

Under the Pope, there are cardinal archbishops, also known as cardinal archbishops, and then bishops dressed in white and gold, with a high status, responsible for the religious affairs of a city or a province on the mainland, which is equivalent to the feudal officials of the empire.

Below the bishop are the white-clothed priests, no more and no less, all of whom are the seeds and mainstays of the church elite.

The second is the clergy, and they are also the most numerous-ranking personnel in the Church of Light.

It usually consists of priests, priests, preachers, ascetics, knights of light, miscellaneous servants, etc., in a church, and there are many categories, belonging to the lowest level of holy officials.

The cardinal archbishop resident in the Koro Empire smiled and said gently: "Your Majesty, my church has always been based on appearance and age, and Normansina's talent is very high and has great potential, so it is not unusual to be an elder in the church.

"But...... I'm afraid that Normansna will not agree to become an elder of the church, and thus refuse the goodwill of the church, so that the archbishop will not be able to come down?" said King Coro.

If she joins our church, she will sincerely dedicate her life to the great goddess of light, and within twenty years, His Majesty the Pope will vouch for her piety to become an unprecedented space saint. ”

King Koro was shocked and speechless, what kind of existence is the Dharma Saint? There are only a few in the whole continent, and they belong to the strongest people at the pinnacle, and even His Majesty the Pope has to fellowship with each other as equals.

Normansina's talent is very high, her potential is huge, and she does have a great chance of becoming a Fa Saint level existence.

However, who would dare to guarantee that twenty years later, Normansna would definitely become a saint of law?

The Koro Empire can't do it, neither can the Wizards' Guild, all the forces can't, only one force can do it - the Church of Light!

"Fa Sheng...... 'temptation' and 'confusion' are too powerful. King Koro smiled silently bitterly.

The good seedlings who have a great chance of achieving the Fa Saint have been poached by the Church of Light in this way, and it is impossible to say that King Koro has no fire in his heart.

However, the Church of Light wants to poach people, and a cardinal archbishop has personally opened his mouth to ask for people at the behest of the Pope, and has already given you enough face as King Koro, do you dare to refuse?

The Misty Forest, as its name suggests, is full of fog when you open and close your eyes, and you can't see your fingers, and at night it's even darker than your fingers.

Entering the military town where the empire was built in front of the Misty Forest, more than forty students were arranged into the dormitory, and they will enter the Misty Forest early tomorrow morning for actual combat competitions.

The fog was so thick that even in the military town a hundred kilometers away from the Misty Forest, there was a large amount of fog drifting, which would not disperse all day long, and only when the sun was full at noon, would it disperse for a short time.

At night, a winged bird in a cage kept "squeaking", and soon the "squeak" of the same kind from all directions came over.

Winged Bird: "Brother Bird, can I ask you something?"

Big Brother Bird: "What's the matter, brother?"

Winged Bird: "I've heard that you always venture into the Misty Forest, I want to ask what is there?"

Brother Bird: "Hey, what can there be, except for the fog is a magical beast, the flying bird type of magical beast is rare, after all, the visibility is so low, you may not be able to find the prey if you look closely, even the eyes of the demon eagle have to be blind." ”

Another big bird: "No, no, it's not all right, the misty forest is not all floating mist, go inside, the fog will be lowered, I heard a buddy say that in the depths of the misty forest, there is almost no fog, overgrown with all kinds ......of strange flowers and plants, all of which can eat bird drops!

Brother Bird was slightly annoyed and squeaked, "You know! ”

The other bird squeaked disdainfully: "It's better than you, obviously always wandering around the periphery, timid in heart, not daring to go too deep, and always boasting to the mother bird about his adventure deeds, it's okay to deceive this little buddy, if you go to a slightly larger forest to brag, a bunch of old birds will have to beat you, and your mother doesn't know you." ”

At night, some soldiers on duty always heard the sound of "squeaking" birds, and then the soldiers on duty looked up and drank! It turned out that two birds were fighting, no wonder it was so noisy......

The fifty Knights of Light who had entered the Misty Forest earlier failed to extract any valuable clues from the mouths of a bunch of birds.

I just heard from a bird that the fifty knights of light disappeared en masse after entering the misty forest, and their whereabouts are unknown.

With a stomach full of confusion, Li Jun gradually fell asleep until the next morning, when dawn came.

The rain and dew in the early morning, accompanied by a cool breeze, are blowing into the nose, and there is a fresh breath, which makes people feel warm.

A total of 500 escort troops, consisting of 100 Knights of Light and 400 soldiers of the military town, were scattered around the more than 40 students.

Their duty was simply to bring the more than 40 students to the designated safe area, then evacuate, and after ten days, to reach the safe area again and escort the more than 40 students back to the military town.

In the Misty Forest, there are many watchtowers and simple walls, and there are not many people stationed there, only a dozen.

The so-called safe area is a wooden village with a watchtower in the wooden village.

At the top of the watchtower, the Church's Bright Banner and the flag of the Koro Empire are placed as eye-catching symbols to guide the students to return here.

The journey from the military town to the wooden village was not very safe, and from time to time there were demonic beasts lurking in the fog and suddenly attacking, leaving four Koro soldiers missing and one Knight of Light injured.

In front of the wooden village is a dangerous place full of murderous opportunities, but if you don't go too deep inside, with the combat power of the more than forty genius magicians present, your life should be worry-free.

Powerful demonic beasts will not get too close to the wooden village, because the demonic beasts are spiritual, in the Church of Light several times to encircle and suppress the misty forest of the heretics, there are many powerful demonic beasts that have been killed, after the encirclement and suppression operation, the blood of those hunted powerful demonic beasts will be smeared on the wooden village, shocking the surrounding demonic beasts.

Therefore, a wooden village with more than ten people stationed has always been safe, with no reports of missing or casualties, monitoring the movements of the Misty Forest for the church and the empire, and the security is even higher than that of the military town behind it.

From time to time, some large demonic beasts can be seen bypassing the lookout wooden village, and roaring at Chongjun Town behind them.

After resting for a while in the wooden village, Li Jun went into battle lightly and stuffed everything into the ring, only hanging a dagger from his waist.

The space for the ring is not large, only four or five square meters, which is still the ring given to him by Mentor Mo Lin.

Some familiar students discussed it and left the group in groups.

It didn't take long for four or five people or one or two people to leave one after another, cautiously groping their way into the misty forest.

"Follow me. Lu Qian looked at Li Jun, who was still stunned, and couldn't help frowning, her words were very short, and she had a cold feeling.

"You little girl, do you really regard me as your follower?" Li Jun muttered, and with a glance of his eyes, he found that the girl magician of the space department had left alone, and he didn't know where he had gone.

Li Jun groaned a little, and always felt that Norman Sina felt very different to herself, with a sense of mystery, and that kind of arrogance seemed to be innate, which made people feel so taken for granted.

"Keep up!"

Li Jun sighed, stopped thinking about her, and followed behind Luxi's little girl like a dog.

"Huh?" Suddenly, a yellow-scaled wasp sent back a memory message a little farther away, and found that there were several human footprints there.

The pit of the footprint is very deep, and it should be a person wearing heavy armor to step out of that deep pit of the seal.

Recalling the fifty Knights of Light who suddenly disappeared into the misty forest, Li Jun's inner uneasiness became more and more intense.

He glanced at Lucy, walked lightly, and quietly left alone.

As we walked farther and farther away, we had reached the depths of the edge of the Misty Forest, and if we walked a little further, we should be in the middle of the Misty Forest.

According to an adventurous bird, in the middle of the Misty Forest, there are many powerful magical beasts, and there is a kind of creature that resembles a human race.

Sincere!

Suddenly, an arrow burst through the air, flashing with a dark luster, and the magic inscription imprinted on the arrow was instantly activated, emitting a thunderous sound, and the air was vibrating.

Rumble!

Like the arrow of a giant cannonball, the power was extremely large, and it exploded a deep pit directly on the ground where Li Jun was originally standing.

Tuk!Tuk!Tuk......

Countless arrows suddenly shot from all directions, and Li Jun hurriedly took advantage of the terrain to dodge.

In a roar, Li Jun's magician robe was shattered, revealing a sacrificial robe with a black bottom and red lines.

The sacrificial robe blocked most of the energy impact for Li Jun, except for the dust covered in his body and the black gunpowder smoke covering his skin, there were no injuries.

Boom!

A neat step came out, and a group of fifty knights of light, with an indifferent face and spears in hand, stepped in.

Li Jun's expression was calm, his eyes flashed, and he probably guessed who they were instructed by.
