Chapter XXXII: The Battle Between the Popes

"You know Austin, God needs us, he needs more believers" Timothy Edmund, the leader of the Abyss Sect, casually pointed the red scepter in his hand in the direction of the cathedral, and a thick red pillar of light flew over at an extremely fast speed.

The elder hand of the "Light Guardian" Sect Leader, Austin Stephen, spread out in the direction of the pillar of light, and a film of pale golden light shrouded the cathedral.

"But that's not an excuse for you to create chaos," Sect Master Austin Stephen stretched his open palm forward, and several golden balls appeared behind him, each of which shot a dazzling golden light at the Abyss Leader, and the light could be heard in the air with a burning "stabbing" sound.

"The Mouth of the Abyss" The leader of the Abyss Sect didn't move, and a red-black spiral appeared in front of him, swallowing up the rays of light that came from him.

"Timothy always feels that you haven't grown much in the past few years," Sect Leader Austin raised the scepter in his hand slightly, pointed forward, and the ball of light behind him immediately turned into a huge lightsaber, and the lightsaber flashed with mysterious runes and flew towards the Abyss Sect Head.

"But I'm younger than you," the leader slammed the red scepter on the ground, looking like it didn't use much strength, but it shook the ground of the square into a huge crack. The red vines quickly pierced out of the mouth of the abyss like blood vessels and flew towards the flying lightsaber, and the huge explosion echoed throughout the Broken Wings City, even Zhou Liang outside the city could hear it.

"Is this the power of the Pope? I'm afraid it's already beyond the A-level professionals, but they really say they can do it," Eric sighed as he stood on the roof of the house in the distance and watched the battle in the square.

"The rating of the professional is also rated by the people, do you think that a low-ranking person can rate a high-ranking person, so it is just the means of the ruler" A middle-aged man standing beside Eric looked at all this with a serious face.

"Yes, after all, knowing how many capable people in the area under your control is a necessary condition for guarding against hidden dangers, but I never expected that the city lord is also on our side" Eric turned his head to look at the middle-aged man.

"You're wrong Eric, I'm not on any side, I don't believe in gods and any great powers, I only believe in myself, human beings are small, and people's lives may be just a time for people to open their eyes in front of those great beings, so why should I spend my life dedicating my life to just looking at myself for those existences, maybe not even a glance, so I only live for myself" The middle-aged man still didn't look at Eric.

"Then why are you joining forces with us," Eric felt a little curious, if it weren't for the Abyss Sect, he might not have really found out that this city lord wanted to overthrow the cathedral.

"One voice in a city is enough, the status of the Cathedral of Light is too transcendent, so transcendent that I, the so-called city lord, am just an ornament" The middle-aged man looked at the Pope who was preparing a huge amount of magic, and the bright light lit up at the Pope's feet, making his expression a little serious, but all this was still just a drama for him.

"Then why are you joining forces with me," Eric asked again, smiling.

"You have a lot of questions, Eric" The middle-aged man finally turned his head to look at Eric this time, "because we are all the same people, all just for ourselves, I need a person like this to be my partner, I don't want to see the Cathedral of Light just gone, and another Abyss Cathedral appears"

"You really look up to me, Lord Castle," Eric narrowed his eyes at the magical light released by the Pope.

"With or without you, I don't have anything to lose for me, I just hope you can give me some surprises, something that can make people unexpected," the middle-aged man said indifferently.

"It's a cold statement, but it doesn't seem like adults are sure," Eric exclaimed self-deprecatingly.

"This world is inherently indifferent, as for the grasp of the two people below, which one is not the one who can destroy a city, what to say in front of them, it's just that they are old," the middle-aged man said as if talking to himself.

At this time, the battle between the two popes, the battle had entered the white heat, and the sky of this city with broken wings was dyed red on one side and white on the other. The buildings around the square were razed to the ground, and the square where the Abyss Sect Leader was located had turned into a pit of white smoke except for the ground where he stood at his feet, but it seemed that he was still in good shape.

The Pope of Light was different, he had lost a lot of extra strength to protect the cathedral from damage, and he already had to hold on to his scepter to barely stand.

"Austin, it looks like you're really old, but you can't hold on to the intensity of the battle now," the Abyss Sect Leader said as he spoke, but the magic did not stop hitting the cathedral's defensive barrier.

"At least I'm not dead, am I" The Pope of Light raised his old face and looked at the Abyss Sect Leader, "As long as I'm in the Cathedral of Light, it's not a place where you should come" I saw that after the Pope of Light finished speaking, he grabbed the scepter with both hands and smashed it to the ground hard, and a huge magic array lit up from the ground, covering an area that almost reached the entire Broken Wings City.

"What is this" Eric looked at this picture with some surprise, he had been in the Cathedral of Light for so long and didn't know that there was such a huge magic circle under the city of Broken Wings.

"God-given power, the name of this magic circle is God-given power" The middle-aged man said indifferently. Legend has it that the Broken Winged Angel did not die after falling here, the Lord of Light sent a messenger to arrest but was killed by the Broken Winged Angel, and at that time the Lord of Light was fighting with the Lord of Death and had no time to care about the things here, so he could only descend a force to seal the Broken Winged Angel here, of course, there is no way to verify whether it is true or false, you don't know if it's strange, it's been a long time since no one can force the cathedral to use the power of God, this magic circle will be weakened by a layer of power once used, there is no way to repair it, if it weren't for this magic circle in the previous Broken Wings City Lord, it would not be so aggrieved”

"What's the use of this magic circle" Eric's expression was a little serious, he hoped that this attack on the Abyss Sect would fail, only if he failed, the more useful he would be to the Abyss Sect, and the greater his power.

"It's very simple, weaken and amplify, weaken the enemy's strength, increase the power of light, and the horror is terrifying in simplicity, and the degree of weakening and amplification is not ordinary," the middle-aged man replied.

At the moment when the god-given power lit up, the Abyss Sect Leader felt that his strength was declining rapidly, and it fell more than one level in an instant, which shows the horror of this magic circle, "Is it still used in the end, I thought you would be reluctant to use it, but it seems that you can't use it a few times at this level" But the Abyss Sect Leader seemed to know that this situation would occur, and there was no surprise expression.

"Even one killing you is enough" Although the appearance of God-given power somewhat relieved the fatigue of the Pope of Light, he was really too old, and every major battle was consuming his few life forces, and he was still wheezing rapidly, but he had straightened his waist again.

"Do you really think that I came without any preparation when I knew that I had the power of God," said the Abyss Leader with a smile as he looked at the Pope in front of the Cathedral of Light. As soon as the words fell, the four corners of the city outside the city of Broken Wings lit up with red pillars of light that soared into the sky, and the red light gathered in the sky to form a huge red magic circle, and the moment the magic circle was formed, the power of the abyss sect leader was also fast to recover, although it did not reach the strongest period, but the difference was not much.
