Chapter Twenty-Five: Sophia Captured?
After Benjamin and the others learned the location of the Holy See's army, they sent several scouts to spy on the details of the situation. Soon, after the information was quickly summarized, it was sent to Benjamin and others.
"I didn't expect this coalition army to be led by Crook, it seems that the Holy See is really bound to win the royal city. Christine said with a hint of sarcasm.
"What are they doing in that mountain?" asked Benjamin, somewhat confused, after listening to the summary of the scouts who had returned.
Yes, the Holy See's coalition army should have arrived two days ago, but it did not move, neither attacked the weakest defense of the northern guard town, nor took it from the central part, and the entire Yasore King City plus the surrounding three guard towns combined with the strength of less than 50,000, that is, not even half of the Holy See coalition army, most of the rest of the troops have already rushed to the border between the three countries, which is the center of this war, and the Holy See and the tribe have more than 800,000 troops there.
But the strange place is this, doesn't the Holy See know the current situation in Yasore? This is impossible, but it has not done so for a long time, but has been in the Leuss Mountains for almost three days, and this cannot help but make one wonder if the Holy See has another purpose.
"Go and find out what the Holy See is doing in the Leuss Mountains. Christine instructed the scouts who had come to report.
The scout retreated after receiving the order, but Benjamin's heart became more and more uneasy, and he was very sensitive to this hidden uneasiness with the ability of an astrologer, so he had to be cautious.
"Ruoqing, you also go and take a look, and you must find out what the people of the Holy See are doing in the Leuss Mountains. Benjamin was not worried about the ability of these scouts, so he sent Ruoqing to prepare them together, but he said with great concern: "You must pay attention to your own safety, don't force it." ”
"Well, don't worry. Ruoqing heard Benjamin's concern, and replied warmly in her heart.
Benjamin's concern proved to be reasonable, and before Ruoqing could leave the inner fort, a loud noise suddenly came from the sky, as if tens of thousands of dragons were roaring together, or like a thunderclap ringing in their ears, which made everyone smell it.
"What's going on?"
Without waiting for Benjamin's words to finish, Ruoqing's exclamation came from outside the hall:
"Come out and see!"
When everyone was a little stunned by the sudden loud noise, after hearing Ruoqing's prosperous shout, they immediately came back to their senses and ran out, just raising their eyes, everyone was shocked......
At this time, the sky seemed to be evenly divided into two halves, half of which was a clear day, and the other half was a starry night, and the place where the two met was a rainbow, but this rainbow was no longer the arc of the arch bridge, but straight like a dividing line half to distinguish the two.
"This—this is ...... What's going on?" Christine muttered as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing, and then as if she had discovered something, her face became ugly and said, "The magic element is disordered, as if it is the forbidden demon realm, is this a ghost made by the Holy See?"
When Benjamin heard Christine talk about the forbidden demon realm, he was a little worried, could it really be made by the Holy See? Because everyone knows what the magician means in the next war, which is why the number of people on his side is less than half of the Holy See's coalition army, but there is still not much fear, because the mage group of the Grand Duke of the Purple Moon is second only to the existence of the royal mage group of the empire, and it is also famous in the entire continent.
Moreover, the mage group of the Grand Duke of Purple Moon plays a much greater role on the battlefield than the Royal Mage Regiment, because the mage group of the Grand Duke of Purple Moon follows the army all the year round, and it is extremely skilled to cooperate with the army。
In the blind royal city, almost a third of the people of the mage regiment remained, but the number of this third, combined with the 40,000 troops, was enough to compete with the 100,000 army of the Holy See, not to mention that it was now on the defensive side, it would be even more wealthy.
But after hearing about the Forbidden Demon Realm at this time, the first thing that everyone thought of was the means that the Holy See had used for the war that was about to be launched, and if this was really the case, the outcome of this offensive and defensive battle would be really difficult to predict.
But fortunately, the next words of Spinson put down the stone in everyone's hearts:
"No, this shouldn't be the result of the Holy See's deliberate efforts, and I can't use divine arts. ”
It should be noted here that although Spinson has left the Holy See, he was the first deputy head of the Holy See Templar Order, and he has his own methods for stealing the power of faith, even if he can't use magic through prayer like other Holy See, but there are still other means, which the high-level of the Holy See has its own unknown means, just like when Kisar stole the power of faith and eventually became a false god, this is a tacit thing for the high-level center of the Holy See.
"And what the hell is going on?" asked Christine, a little puzzled, "but if it wasn't the Holy See's ghost, what could it be?"
Everyone agrees with Christine's statement, but Spinson is also right, it is impossible for the Holy See to engage in a forbidden demon realm that has even been affected by itself, and there is no point in doing so, everyone knows that if the ordinary soldiers of the Holy See do not have the blessing of divine arts, the soul will be mutilated because of faith, which is inferior to ordinary farmers in other parts of the mainland, let alone elite soldiers.
Just when everyone was a little puzzled, there was a change in the sky again, which attracted everyone's attention again.
A dazzling moon appeared in the half of the sky covered with stars, instantly rendering the entire night sky into a bright silver world, even compared to the day on the other side, it was not much inferior, and it was extremely dazzling.
"Luna?" said Kiza, who had not spoken all this time, and then, as if sensing something, after a pause, said again:
"It's the breath of the moon god. ”
"Well, I also felt the presence of divine power. Spinson echoed in.
"Luna Alice?" Christine was a little surprised, "Isn't that Sister Sophia?
