491 The True Purpose of the Holy Church
The Templars had grown from their initial momentum to exhaustion.
At first, they saw strangely sized members of the Strange Walk Guild and vampire players, and firmly believed that their opponents were mutated humans infected by the bloodline of Warcraft, and that they were the agents of justice.
However, as the commanders sacrificed themselves and turned into demons that did not distinguish between themselves and attacked everything they saw, their faith began to waver.
In addition, players who can be resurrected infinitely enter the battlefield one after another, and the combat zone cannot be attacked for a long time.
As a result, confusion and despair spread among the physically and mentally exhausted knightly troops.
The Templars who had lost their commander and fled in all directions were almost all scattered, with only a handful of those who had a strong faith rejoining the Rear Order and being regrouped.
But even this small part of the reorganized part had some doubts in their hearts, and they told their comrades about the scenes that happened on the front front. The last resort of the commanders is described as possession of gods and demons. The speaker had no intention, the listener had a heart, and the rumors spread quickly, and some people's beliefs were shaken.
The three strongest knights couldn't suppress the bad news and rumors that came one after another. It can only be ordered that all the defeated knights be taken into custody for the crime of escaping. This further crumbled their faith.
As the strongest legion, the Celestial Legion faced the main force of the Templar Order. The National Treasure Alliance is in charge of the left flank front, and the odd walkers, as well as a large number of small guilds and casual players, all gather on the right flank front to engage in a large melee with the Templar Order.
The front, which had been gradually suppressed, began to have a tendency to counterattack after five days of continuous resistance.
Demon pets such as the Red Dragon and the Phantom Wolf King, who had been pressing the formation in the rear, also joined the battlefield.
This day was later known as the Day of Dawn. It was also because of this great war that the true face of the Holy Church was gradually revealed.
The Holy Church, which worships the Chaos Messenger Nyarrathotep, has helped humanity survive the extermination of its race, but the holy kingdom of Plato, which is dominated by religion, has also been destroyed.
The few members of the Holy Church who survived were suppressed by the three kingdoms that took advantage of the opportunity to rise, and it was difficult to find a place to live.
The new generation of Sectarians eventually had to make peace with the weakest kingdom of Houlivot, helping them to compete with the other two kingdoms, before they could find a respite.
It seems that the Holy Church, which has been giving and dedicating to mankind, has a real purpose not to preserve, but to balance and destroy.
Nyaratotip's doppelgangers spread around the world, helping the weak and weakening the powerful. When the two sides switch positions, they will turn to help the other side.
So when they discovered the existence of the player group, they had already foreseen the rise of the human race, which was the real fuse of the Great Purge.
Obviously, the situation is now beyond the control of the Holy Church's supreme leader. Just when he was at a loss, the archbishop, dressed in red, slowly walked into the main hall.
The Sect Leader was shocked when he saw the visitor, "You, how did you get in?" ”
Cardinal archbishops are quite special in the hierarchy of the Holy Church, and according to legend have existed hundreds of years ago. The strength is even more unfathomable, although he does not hold any real power, he is responsible for the custody of the supreme holy relics of the Holy Church, the primordial octahedron.
On the surface, most of the faithful and the faithful are unaware of the existence of the cardinal. Only a few people who have real access to the power center of the Holy Church will know that there is such a person.
Some high-level officials regard it as a miracle agent and support it on the high platform, but others see it as a thorn in the flesh.
Every generation of ambitious ecclesiastical ecclesiastical groups sees it as a threat to themselves, fearing that one day the cardinal will take the throne. But all the assassinations of cardinals over the past hundred years have ended without a hitch, after which the current church or some of the top leaders will die of strange diseases.
This is just a small punishment that the cardinal has inflicted on them. In its eyes, whether it is the Holy Church, the Church or the Priest, they are just tools.
Now that there is a problem with the tool, of course it needs to be repaired. The cardinal archbishop stretched out his dehydrated and withered finger and tapped it lightly on the brow of the contemporary church.
The Sect Leader trembled and tried to dodge, but he couldn't move even a step anyway. He could only watch as the cardinal's fingers slowly approached his brow.
The nail was touched first, then pierced, and a drop of blood flowed out of the wound, and only that was the only drop of blood flowed out.
The fingertips touched the cerebral cortex of the sect, as if ten thousand Gu drilled into the heart. The cerebral cortex of the sect was so itchy that he wanted to scratch it, but even if he could move his hands, he couldn't touch the cortical tissue beneath the skull.
At this time, he only felt a hundred claws scratching his heart, and his consciousness was tormented. He couldn't imagine how he would dare to scratch the soft frozen brain with his hard nails, even if he really opened his skull.
It didn't take long for the Sect to be completely irrational and tormented by the strange itch from the cerebral cortex. Saliva slid down the corners of his mouth, and his rolling eyes couldn't control the spillage of tears.
The decayed body of the Church has been revived, but the change is not a rejuvenation, but a strange transformation.
Rough black skin enveloped the whole body, and strange runes loomed. Eight hard insects stood on their feet, piercing the outer skin, touching the ground to support his body.
The original hands and feet are still there, but they have been removed from the ground and twisted and rotated at an angle that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and the direction corresponding to the knee joint of the hands and feet is reversed. It's like the anti-joints of big cats.
The strength of the Sect has risen step by step from the original silver level, but it has reached the epic level in a short time.
It was not until the third stage that it stabilized, and finally broke through to the fourth stage. The third and fourth stages are a watershed, and the improvement of strength is not a little bit.
Even Rogers, the general of the Eastern Kingdom, who has an epic beginner rank, is a younger brother in front of him. If the two sides go head-to-head, Rodgers will be killed after holding out for half an hour at most.
The cardinal archbishop used this method to convert the church, and then converted a large number of believers stationed in the Holy City.
Those who could not bear it turned into a pool of blood, and in the end, only more than 30,000 of the most devout believers were successfully converted.
The battle ahead was still unsettled, and the strange black-armored army composed of more than 30,000 people poured out again.
At this time, the holy city was in shambles, and it had become a dead city.
Those once devout believers have now become unrecognizable humanoid demons, with creature arthropods and insect carapaces fused with them, and the consciousness of being human is long gone.
All of them were like walking corpses, standing in the ranks of the Black Armor Legion.
……
On the battlefield ahead, the three most powerful Templar orders have already fallen, and one of them has even fused with Sombra.
Obviously, this person's strength is different from that of the other dozen or so regiment commanders, and he can still retain a trace of sanity, and he can barely distinguish between friend and foe. However, the Templars, who were his former subordinates, did not dare to approach easily. Only a dozen or so cronies gathered around him, most of them were only Silver Rank, and a few of them had reached the Gold Rank.
After the fusion, his strength has broken through the epic, and he has joined forces with his cronies. Even if all the gold players gather here, it will be difficult to compete.
If it weren't for the Red Dragon and the Phantom Wolf King joining the battlefield, the player's forward forces might have been defeated.
"Epic boss, brothers shake people~ It's going to be a big shipment!"
……
In the crowd, players were excited, calling for the elites of other battlefields to gather here in various ways.
[Seven-Bladed Imperial Soul] fought with a gold-level Templar with a red blade, and [Doctor Yang] withstood several silver-level attacks and was still taunting.
The three ranged [Dawn], [Pickup Soldier] and [Nana] tilted their fire towards the three knight captains in the distance. Noticing the trio of them, the high-ranking Templars attacked them at all costs, making them a key target.
[Dual-wielding Berserk Gandalf] drove the red dragon in the air to contain the three knights, and the Phantom Wolf King led the wolves to charge and kill in the Templar Order, and a layer of barrier shrouded the wolves, faintly shadowing the Fuguo cavalry charge.
[Horse Guidance] danced the social death dance in the rear to treat everyone. The guards beside him were stripped away layer by layer, and two gold-level soldiers were about to kill in front of him.
[Ghost from the Heart] put all his body and mind under the control of Big Eyeballs, and once again showed great might. With only gold-level strength, you can also enter and exit seven times in gold-level melee.
[Day sleep] and [night rise] cooperate tacitly. Although the latter was still at the Silver rank, with the combined efforts of the two, they were still able to fight three Gold-level first-order Templars alone. This is all based on the comprehensive quality improvement after the transformation of three generations of vampires.
The cooperation between [Turbo Duck] and [Bai Slash Ji] and [Niko] also became more and more tacit, and the three of them resisted in front of Ma Gui and killed the group of enemies who were about to rush in. Only [Shuishui] was still paddling, waving his scepter and pretending.
