Volume 7 Mortals and Gods Chapter 800 and 8 The Eve
It was late at night, and there were no lights in the room. Only the faint light coming from the window reflected the outline of the furnishings in the room.
The rapier was slowly drawn out of its scabbard.
The sword edge is bright and dark, and the seven-colored light representing the seven negative forces comes and goes, constantly changing.
In the darkness, the seven-colored sword edge reflected the drunken eyes of the legendary killer John Wick.
John Wick stretched out his fingertips and touched the tip of the sword lightly. The sharp sword tip lightly pricked his finger, and in an instant, seven negative forces poured into his body like a frenzy, repeatedly testing his strength.
Magic resistance.
John Wick swayed for a while, but finally failed to withstand all the negative power and was affected by the slow effect.
The fighting spirit on his body was flickering, and it took several minutes to suppress the slow effect. When he looked at the seven-color rapier again, the flames in John Wick's eyes became even hotter.
At this time, beams of swaying firelight came through the window, accompanied by bursts of noise, including voices praising the goddess.
The group of people gradually moved away along a long street not far from John Wick's window, but the noisy sound was still faintly heard.
John Wick had a look of disgust on his face, and he closed the window to block out the noisy people outside.
He knew that the group of people who had just left were fanatical followers of the Church of the Fairy of the Lake. These believers responded to the call and were gathering on the plains south of the Xirel Empire to contribute their share of the victory to the final holy war.
John Wick hates these fanatical believers very much. In the name of faith and holiness, they can actually do anything, even worse than bandits and thugs.
John Wick mentioned this matter to Peter I several times, but every time Peter I just dealt with him casually.
John Wick was also tired of this war. He really couldn't understand the meaning of the war, and he didn't understand why so many countries should invest in this unprecedented human civil war.
The longer the war goes on, and the more tragic scenes that must exist in various wars are seen, the more John Wick misses the peaceful days beside the small lake in the North Country.
John Wick has a strong desire to return to a leisurely retirement life. This war does not belong to him.
But when his eyes fell on the rapier, he couldn't leave it anymore.
From the time when Peter I promised to add a movement to his six months, now there is only one chapter in several years. Although John Wick was extremely angry about this.
But there was actually nothing he could do about an emperor who broke his promise. Even if he was angry, he had nowhere to vent his anger.
"Just bear with it a little longer! Just one more piece of music, and I will retire. Just one more piece..." John Wick thought.
The final moment is coming.
Just a month ago, the Albrex Empire's legions pretended to attack the Holy Empire. When more than 50,000 Holy Empire remnants were urgently transferred back to the inner defense, the Alplekes Empire's legions suddenly marched southward. They were unstoppable along the way, winning ten consecutive victories.
After a battle, they finally outflanked the rear of the meat grinder front.
The main army of the Batoria Empire made a frontal assault, broke through the Holy Empire's front line, and joined forces with the Albrex Empire army.
At this point, the Holy Empire's 100,000-strong army was cut off from all retreats and fell into a heavy siege.
On the Eastern Front battlefield, the Holy Empire achieved a major victory.
In the face of the 100,000-strong army of the Holy Empire, the more than 200,000 troops of the Xirel Empire were defeated in every battle. They retreated all the way, and the defense line was shattered. In the end, 30,000 soldiers were injured or killed, and 100,000 were captured.
Counting the deserters during the retreat, less than 30,000 of the 200,000 Cyril troops eventually fled back to Genoa.
After defeating the main force of Siriel, the Holy Empire's army turned west and joined the army at the eastern end of the Meat Grinder Front. After reorganizing, it faced off with the main force of the Holy Alliance countries on the plain north of the Central Mountains.
For a time, on the endless plains, the Allied Powers and the Holy Empire each assembled their armies, and the decisive battle was imminent.
On the side of the alliance, there is a 250,000-strong army with the two armies of the Albrex Empire and the Batoria Empire as the main force, supplemented by tens of thousands of troops from the Siriel Empire and the Principality of Shire.
On the side of the Holy Empire, more than 350,000 troops have been assembled, and more troops are entering the central plain one after another.
Before this decisive battle, the Allied Powers actually had an advantage not only in the quality of their legions, but also in the number of soldiers.
Therefore, before the war, all the Allied commanders agreed that only by facing the enemy with a relatively weak force could it be possible to mobilize the main force of the Holy Empire to come for a decisive battle.
A series of battles in the past have proven that among the three traditional empires, the Xirel Empire has long declined. Its army is still huge, but its combat power is no longer what it used to be.
Only the Albrex Empire, the Batoria Empire, and the Principality of Shire were far more powerful than the Holy Empire.
Looking at the mainland, apart from the Holy Knights of the Holy Empire, who have never fought in battle, there should be no rivals.
However, in this decisive battle, even if the Holy Empire has a huge advantage in military strength, it may not be able to defeat the Allies unless all the Holy Knights are dispatched.
This is exactly the result that Peter I wanted to see. Peter I knew that in addition to the Holy Knights, the core of the Holy Empire's force also had a mysterious temple. And how many powerful guys were hidden in the temple? Who were they?
Don't know either.
But no matter what characters are hidden in the Holy Church, or how many descendants or reincarnated angels there are in the church, they cannot change their destiny of destruction.
Because in front of the avatar of the Dark Lord Bayer, all the strong men in this plane will find themselves helpless and desperate!
And directly introducing the clone of the Dark Demon into the plane will be an unprecedented miracle on the continent!
Even in the glorious era of the Elf Empire thousands of years ago, such a miracle had never been achieved!
Moreover, on the day of the decisive battle, the Lake Fairy Lilith may also join the war in the form of a clone or the direct arrival of her true body.
Another reason why the Allied parties decided not to invest too much troops was that when the Dark Devil's clone successfully arrived, his terrifying aura originating from the darkness alone would be enough to transform most of the weaker warriors into helpless warriors.
Dark creatures of consciousness!
According to Marshal Servais's estimation, the moment the Dark Lord appeared, eight to one hundred thousand warriors from the Allied side might become victims.
Of course, when the avatar of the Lord God steps into the front line of the Holy Empire's army, whose average quality is much worse, more than 300,000 warriors may be transformed into dark creatures and become Bayer's servants.
These days, Genoa has almost become a city that never sleeps.
The place is brightly lit every night, and groups of Lake Fairy believers say goodbye to their families.
They set out from here and headed all the way to the central plains to participate in the final holy war.
No one doubts that the war will fail, because the central plain has been predicted to be a miraculous place, where the goddess Lilith will descend, and she will witness with her own eyes the heroic fighting spirit of her followers.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the noisy night scene, Iros sighed slightly.
He naturally knew what was waiting for these believers in the central plain.
He drank all the wine in his hand. The scarlet wine had a special taste, which was somewhat similar to the taste of blood.
Iros put down his wine glass and went all the way to the room where everything was three. Yes, everything was three and came to the main plane, but Iros didn't know what mission he came with.
On the eve of the battle, he always felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart. He wanted to talk to the old fox, Everything is Three, and maybe he could come up with something.
No matter where he is, his home is simple and elegant, making people feel very relaxed. He is sipping tea and reading a book.
Seeing Ilos come in, he said hello with a smile, and even poured a cup of tea for Iros, which was rare.
Iros was not polite. He sat in front of Wan Shi Ji San and said bluntly:
"Everything is wrong. The decisive battle is about to begin. I feel very uneasy, but I can't find the reason. I wonder if you can give me some advice."
Wanshijiesan smiled bitterly and said: "Lord Iros, the main gods standing behind both sides in this battle are the Dark World and Heavenly Mountain respectively. I think you know this better than I do.
Even if I know more than ordinary people, I am still an ordinary hybrid devil and demon. How can I get involved in the battle between the Lord Gods? So I can't really help you with this war."
