While Louis Wildenstein was amazed by the freshman's twenty-fifth level divine art, there were already people preparing to use this divine art in actual combat, north of America, on the outskirts of Toronto City on Lake Ontario.

Zoe Wharton, the 'Chosen Knight' of the Church of Destiny, was standing at the door of the 'Red Manor' at this time, sensing the information about the 'Great Wishing Technique' in his mind with great interest.

"As long as there are enough elements, can almost all wishes be granted?

Zoe Wharton is one of the forty-eight Chosen Knights of the Winged Knights, but in addition to this identity, he is also a semi-holy knight of the Church of Destiny.

So when this magic was born in the magic system of the Church of Destiny, Zoe Wharton noticed it immediately.

This is an exaggerated level and extremely harsh divine art, but as a semi-holy knight, Zoe Wharton knows that he has the ability to use it.

And just by sensing its structure, he was able to appreciate the power of this divine art.

It may be the same as or even more than the nine divine techniques of the Church: 'Luck', 'Doom', 'Light Speed Movement', 'Time Acceleration', 'Infinite Vitality', 'Youth Grant', 'Expulsion', 'Resurrection' and 'Great Resurrection'!

Zoe Wharton couldn't help but look eagerly at the fortress-like manor building in front of her, and in addition to the war, fanaticism, and impatience in her eyes, there was also a strong disgust.

"It's time too, right? What's the reply?"

"Thirteen minutes away from the ultimatum. ”

The answer was the deputy commander of the attack, a cardinal named Vicari.

This is a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and a polite manner. But it must be mentioned. He was not a priest by profession, but a war priest. It is a profession among the clergy that is more war-oriented, or even war-focused.

"The Great Wishing Technique given by the Lord, you are going to take advantage of this opportunity to try the effect, right?"

"I wanted to see how amazing it was. Vikari, don't say you don't want to see it?"

Zoe Wharton said as he slammed the big sword in his hand to the ground: "Thirteen minutes, then I'm ready to start, Vikari!"

At the same time as he said this, a pure and powerful divine power, as well as countless mysterious runes, appeared at this person's feet.

The Cardinal named Vicari next to him raised his eyebrows slightly, and fixed his eyes on Zoe Wharton. He sensed that the guy next to him had improved by leaps and bounds in strength after meeting again after three months.

This realm is not far from the real god position, right? It may not be long before he will have to call this 'His Highness'.

The cardinal secretly sighed, rejoicing in his decision.

But there was only no envy and jealousy, just because he knew that the situation of the Wharton knight was something he could not envy.

The Semi-Holy Knight was originally a legendary magical hunter who lived on the west coast of America and worked for a security contracting company. To put it bluntly, the so-called mercenaries.

However, a few years ago, after the worldwide catastrophe caused by the World of Beasts, Zoe Wharton made the decision to the surprise of all his friends by joining the Church of Destiny and becoming a Templar under the command of the Lord of Destiny.

And it was Vicari who introduced Zoe Wharton at that time.

At a time when everyone doubted Zoe Wharton's reliability and the entire church was in turmoil about the endless ghost incidents, Vicari, who was the bishop of the parish at the time, overcame the crowd and personally came forward to vouch for Zoe Wharton's recommendation.

And this is what Bishop Vicari is most proud of now, and the latter has lived up to his expectations, and in just four years, he has become one of only nine demigods in the Church!

Such an achievement is surprising, after all, the Wharton Knight is a halfway monk. And the profession of Magic Hunter has no connection with the Paladin.

But in the past four years, this paladin's professional level has swelled up like blowing up a balloon, and in less than two years, he has already entered the demigod rank.

Many people think that this person is mostly shit luck and has been favored by the master of fate. But Bishop Vicari knows that although Zoe Wharton has indeed received some attention from the Lord, the reason why this person has been able to grow to this point in a very short period of time is more because of 'fit'.

Zoe Wharton's identification with the 'Sacred Book of Destiny' is unparalleled, and she has a devotion that surpasses all fanatics, and has always adhered to the rules of the Lord of Destiny.

And this is the biggest reason why Knight Zoe Wharton was able to become a demigod Templar in a very short period of time!

But for some reason, Zoe Wharton Knight has an incomprehensible attachment and hatred for the Church of Liberty. Bishop Vicari speculated that it might have something to do with his mercenary experience, but Zoe Wharton had been secretive about it, and Bishop Vicari had always been puzzled, but he didn't care.

He believed that the Wharton Knight's past experience had been investigated by the Church's intelligence services for a long time.

"Ten minutes to go, Wharton Knight!"

"It doesn't matter, it will take a little time to prepare for this magic technique. ”

Zoe Wharton replied unconcernedly, as she continued to expand the rune array beneath her feet.

Since she had never performed it before, and she had not done any related exercises, Zoe Wharton's process was rather jerky. However, the time required for this magic itself will take a minute. In addition, you have to consider the possibility of failure of the magic due to unfamiliarity.

At this time, a sarcastic smile appeared on the Templar's lips, "I can probably guess how the people of the Red family will respond, they must still have unrealistic hopes that they will be able to keep the family inheritance." But the current situation is not what it was a few years ago. The poison of the goddess of strife must be eradicated no matter what. ”

"Wow, looks like you're going to kill all the people inside?"

"No, I won't do that, our Lord will not allow senseless killing, nor will we point the butcher's knife at the innocent. The people of the Red family and the believers in Lady Liberty are the ones we must get rid of. ”

Bishop Vicari thought to himself that this was a high-sounding statement, but how could they recognize it? Then he regretted it, and knocked his hand on his head with some hatred.

He knew that it was because he usually had too many thoughts and couldn't be as pure as Zoe Wharton, so he couldn't rise to the priesthood level.

And just as he was about to say something, a message popped up on Vicari's phone. He gave him a casual look, then sneered.

"You're wrong this time, Zoe! According to the news from His Royal Highness Reinhardt, the Red family has asked the Canadian government for help. ”

Zoe Wharton's pupils opened slightly, and then he was full of murderous intent: "I don't know whether to live or die! I make a wish, within 20 minutes, maximize my combat power!"

At this very moment, Bishop Vicari's hair stood on end. He sensed that Zoe Wharton's aura was climbing sharply! Behind this person, three pairs of purple-gold divine power wings were even stretched out at this moment, and the image was extremely similar to the 'Lord Angel' under the seat of the Lord of Radiance-

And in the next moment, a large area of the exterior wall of Nared Manor collapsed in a large area.

At this time, Zoe Wharton's figure was already standing on it, covered by countless bullet rays around him. However, none of these powerful thermal weapons could inflict any damage on the Templar, and his entire person no longer seemed to exist in this plane.

And in the next moment, a large area of ice began to spread inside the manor.

It was the divine spell 'Silent Winter' - the Lord of Fate transformed all the thirteen forbidden spells he had mastered into divine spells and gave them to the clergy of the Church to practice. Although they are not as powerful as the real forbidden spells, they are both very powerful, and they are not inferior to the forbidden spells. However, it is also very difficult to cultivate, ten times more difficult than the magic technique of the Great Wishing Technique, and it is difficult for any priest or war priest to master one of them even in the lifetime of his life.

But Zoe Wharton, however, is a paladin, but in just one year, he has mastered the pseudo-forbidden spell of 'Silent Winter'. The fit of thought and belief, coupled with his own good talent, made him extremely fast no matter what magic he learned.

And this time Zoe Wharton's 'Silent Winter' is extraordinarily exaggerated. In less than 30 breaths, the temperature in the surrounding 120 kilometers has been reduced to minus 100 degrees. Within three kilometers of the core, it is close to absolute zero, and all the people covered in this area have been frozen into ice sculptures.

And the mythical magical energy protection array inside the Red Manor almost failed to exert any effect under the crushing of this person.

This is?

Bishop Vikari's scalp tingled involuntarily, and then he was so excited that he couldn't help but feel excited.

He realized that what Zoe Wharton was now mastering was the real 'Lord Angel' level, that is, the combat power of the higher god rank. Rather than relying on the accumulation of magic armor and biogenesis.

This wishing technique can actually push Wharton's strength to such an extent!

But it would be a pity if it was simply used for combat.

Bishop Vicari was able to discern the true value of this 'wishing technique' with a single thought, and its uses were varied, but it was probably the auxiliary effect that would benefit the most.

He sighed secretly, and at the same time his heart was excited. On the one hand, I was looking forward to the effect of using the 'Wishing Technique', and on the other hand, I thought that after the details of this magic technique spread, I don't know how many human powerhouses and forces in this world will further move closer to the Lord of Destiny.

In terms of the usefulness of the divine system alone, the Church of Fate has begun to rise above the Radiant Master, and in terms of its appeal to the powerful of the human race, it is two or three orders of magnitude higher, especially the mages.

Their Lord doesn't seem to mind being used as a ladder for the demigods to climb up, and he doesn't mind sharing and bestowing grace on mortals.

Bishop Vicari was still a little worried about this, he didn't know what kind of considerations his gods were for?

The large-scale promotion of gods around the world, especially the mass production of the 'ancient gods', will only shake the faith of mortals, and will not be of any benefit to the gods themselves except that they can strengthen the power of the Church of Destiny to a certain extent-

"Boom!"

A loud bang interrupted Bishop Vicari's thoughts, causing him to put away all his distractions. When his consciousness emanated, he found that Zoe Wharton was already entangled with a white figure with six pairs of wings.

Bishop Vicari recognized it at a glance, it was an Angel of Freedom at the level of a 'Seat Angel', and his combat power was equivalent to that of a medium god!

The Liberal Church was clearly unwilling to sit idly by and sent reinforcements to the Red Manor.

However, Vicari's mind did not make any waves because of this, and not so long ago, this was undoubtedly a powerful existence that could make them feel tricky.

But now, the Wharton Knight has a big advantage in this battle that has just begun.

What's more, their overall combat effectiveness is also extremely strong, and there are five squadrons of the 'Divine Winged Knights' concentrated here alone.

"Speed up! Try to resolve the battle in fifteen minutes. ”

Bishop Vicari gave the order: "All troops are free to distinguish and eradicate the believers of Lady Liberty to the greatest extent!"

He knew that this order he had given would result in the death of a large number of people inside the Red Manor.

But Wharton Knight is right when he says it, it's not what it used to be. A few years ago, the Church of Destiny needed to recruit a large number of people from all walks of life, even former enemies, in an attempt to increase its power as quickly as possible.

But now, if I don't remove the thorns from the land, how can I free up enough land to appease and motivate stakeholders within the camp?

※※※※

At the same time, at 24 Sussex Road in Ottawa, the country's prime minister, Eward Warrington, stood at the window with a nonchalant face. And behind him, this year's finance minister, Idi Aman, was indignant.

"There is no doubt that this is an invasion against our country! The Lord of Destiny is ignoring the sovereignty and security of our country. Where is this god? It's a complete demon!"

At this time, a young woman dressed as a secretary hurriedly walked in: "Prime Minister, there is news from the Red Manor. The ecclesiastical forces of the Church of Destiny have launched an offensive in advance, and they have now invaded the manor, and they have a power of the high god rank directly into the battle. ”

A large number of politicians and elites gathered in this office. There was an uproar. Then some of them remained silent, some of them were mournful, and some of them were angry and indignant.

"How dare they?"

"This is a disregard! No, it is a violation of the laws of our country!"

"I suggest mass exposure in the media! We have to let His followers know that their gods have turned their backs on His teachings!"

"That's right! The pastors of the Church of Destiny have always whitewashed their gods as righteous gods of war, and have never supported unrighteous wars. But now, we have an obligation to let people know who He really is! We have to reveal the truth to the world!"

And among the crowd there was a sixty-year-old man whose face was pale,

"Didn't they send the last two companies of S.H.I.E.L.D., and where are they now?"

"Intercepted, Mr. Red. ”

The female secretary looked at the Minister of Defense who was almost slumped on the sofa with pity: "They were stopped on Route 37 by two squadrons of Winged Knights, and it is said that there were heavy casualties. ”

She knew that after today, the Red family, with its 300-year glorious history, would disappear forever.

Prime Minister Eward Warrington was unmoved, still holding his hands behind his back and looking out the window thoughtfully. It's just a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his lips.

It is true that the master of fate is not righteous, but it is undoubtedly absurd to say that this war is unjust.

According to the propaganda of the Church of Fate, Lady Liberty has fallen in the battle against the Lord of Fate. It is said that five god kings, including the Goddess of the Night, Rhea, Our Lady of Light, and Satan, were still defeated by the Lord of Fate, not only killing Lady Liberty, but also seriously injuring the Holy Mother of Light and other god kings.

Iward was unable to confirm this for the time being, because the information was so unbelievable, after all, the Lord of Destiny had only been on the rise for less than ten years. But he believes in the Church of Destiny and will not make decisions that go against the Church of Destiny.

The Lord of Fate has extremely strong control over His Church, and an active invasion war against humanity is contrary to the divinity of the Lord of Fate, and it is a great harm to the latter, and in the end the gains outweigh the losses.

So in his opinion, the hustle and bustle in the office behind him is nothing more than the wailing of a lost dog-

At this time, which media dares to publish this kind of news?

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister!"

This time it was a young man who hurried up to Eward Warrington and delivered a hand-held satellite phone to him.

There was a look of confusion in Aiward's eyes, but then he heard the voice of Governor Isardo Chaplin through the earpiece.

In Canada, the Governor-General, appointed by the Queen of England, is the nominal head of state and represents the interests of the British royal family. The duties are to convene and dissolve Parliament, sign bills passed by Parliament, nominate the Prime Minister, and so on.

However, since the fall of the British gods, Eward has not spoken to the governor for a long time. Britain's control and influence over the country has fallen to the extreme.

This time the communication method was also strange, not using a telephone hotline between their offices, but a satellite phone. Eward guessed that this one had something to do with the content of the communication, and they didn't want to leave any leverage on him.

"Really?"

In other words, Lady Liberty has indeed suffered a heavy blow. Is it also true that the Lord of Destiny is under siege?"

"Yes, I already know what to do. ”

"Will Lady Targaryen call me later? Is it the chosen one of our lords? What an honor, and I am so grateful!"

After about a minute, Eward Warrington placed the satellite phone in his hand on his desk, and then looked at the many cabinet members present with a look of happiness, toughness and indifference.

"Mr. Chief of Staff, now please help me convey my order, all troops are on standby, not to leave the station, and all S.H.I.E.L.D. troops are withdrawn as soon as possible. Also, inform several national magicians that all previous orders are null and void. ”

These instructions suddenly set off a huge storm in this office, and some people even scolded directly.

"Warrington, what do you want to do? Why do you want to withdraw our troops?"

"Are you going to betray Her Highness? ”

"You are a betrayal of the country, of the people!"

"You shit! I knew you were a bad breed when you first ran for election. ”

Eward Warrington, however, was only glad that he was sitting in the prime minister's position at this time, and that there was value in making the great ruler take advantage of it.

"It's time to recognize reality, guys!"

Unmoved, he continued to look at all the people: "We are powerless to confront America, and we are equally powerless to resist the Great Lord. This is undoubtedly also a just war, and Lady Liberty fell in the process of besieging the Lord of Fate. And now everything is just a counterattack from the Church of Destiny, following the canons of the Lord, and his followers are unwilling to engage in unrighteous warfare. But when someone inflicts war on them, then a tooth for a tooth, and blood for a blood!"

He noticed that nearly half of the cabinet members in the office had calm faces, and even smiled appreciatively at him.

Eward Warrington couldn't help but sigh: "This meeting is over, everyone! Except for the chief of staff and the chief of staff, everyone else can leave." Tomorrow I will hold a meeting to reshuffle the Cabinet. ”

Speaking of this, he hesitated for a little for ten seconds: "Mr. two party whips, please submit a bill as soon as possible to abolish the legitimate missionary rights of the Church of Liberty in our country. ”

"Is it the right time for you?"

This is the Liberal Democratic whip in the Senate, Mike Howard: "I personally recommend that it be best to consult within the party for a few days and reach a unified consensus before submitting the bill. ”

"It doesn't make sense, it's going to pass, isn't it? One day is enough time for us to unify the opinions within the party. What you probably don't know is that both parties in the American Congress have already introduced bills on this matter. It is estimated that tomorrow morning, the Statue of Liberty will be the illegitimate faith of America. ”

Eward Warrington shook his head, he knew that the most taboo at this time was half-heartedness, swaying from side to side.

Now that you have decided to reverse the past, there is no need to leave a way back. That Lady Liberty was definitely not a magnanimous lord, and if she existed, she would never forgive him for the decisions he had just made.

Moreover, he could now be sure that the Lady Liberty had indeed fallen, or at least suffered a major blow.

This was not the news revealed by the Governor, but the information that was given back from all sides, and Eward Warrington was sure that Her Highness the Goddess was powerless to respond to the attack of the Church of Destiny. All her 'inheritances' in the mortal world are coveted by various forces.

"Also, Your Excellency Chief of Staff, by the way, remove the Statue of Liberty in front of the residence, and then remove the inscription at the gate as soon as possible. I think that in this era, the lord of destiny, who represents 'equality', is more suitable for this country. ”

- This is all within the purview of Eward Warrington, and it can be decided directly. He knew that from now on, he must do everything possible to cooperate with the Church of the Lord and erase everything that Lady Liberty has in this country.
