The Fortress of Fort Tantino was completely destroyed early on, and the southwest was almost suffocated by the pressure of the Dark Empire. Even the mysterious powers hidden by the Holy See of Light were sent out, but they could only survive...
Vidal, the servant of the Dark God, teamed up with many purgatory demons, especially the demon leader Adriano, who had recovered a lot of power. Even though the Empire of Light had recently received a lot of support, it was still at a relative disadvantage. If it weren't for
The Dark Empire has always been worried about the Forest Kingdom and the Business Alliance on the other side, and has not been able to devote all its strength to it. Maybe the few strong cities and fortresses that the Light Empire relies on have been captured long ago...
The harsh war situation has directly affected all the people of the Empire of Light. Even the Holy City, where the headquarters of the Holy Holy See of Light is located, is now shrouded in gloom.
Just after early spring, the snow covering the entire land gradually began to melt under the continuous sunshine.
The snow has melted, and all the avenues in the Holy City are slightly wet, but the wet ground cannot stop the footsteps of the believers. In the middle of the Holy City, the most majestic St. Paul's Cathedral rings a bell.
When the bell rang, almost everyone put down what they were doing, or followed the flow of people on the street towards the source of the bell, or started praying directly at home...
As the core of the faith of the Empire of Light, under the influence of thousands of years of influence, the vast majority of people in the Holy City are loyal believers of the Lord God of Light. When the time for worship comes, these believers will spontaneously start praying.
Thousands of believers prayed at the same time, and the huge power of faith surged. St. Paul's Cathedral, the extension of the will of the Lord of Light in the continent of gods, was gradually enveloped by the endless holy light. This pure power of faith
, the holy power generated through the transformation of the temple is the purest and most holy.
The holy light shoots straight into the sky. Even the sunshine at noon still cannot cover up its brilliance. It is not magic or fighting spirit. This holy light is just the purest and purest holy power. Bathed in this light, it is like everything in the world.
All evil is driven away...
This miraculous phenomenon naturally made many believers more pious, and the voices of prayer became louder and louder.
"The divine power of the Lord is omnipresent, and those who offend the majesty of the Lord will surely be punished eternally!"
Feeling the familiar and majestic aura hidden in the holy light, in the main hall in the center of St. Paul's Cathedral, a tall and graceful figure slowly turned around.
On a face with clear lines as carved by a knife, but extremely classical and solemn, there is a pair of starry eyes as cold as polar ice, which makes Elnes, who is serving under the throne of Hayes, tremble in her heart, as if she is looking at the ice eyes.
At this moment, her soul seemed to be frozen...
"Elnes, you go down first."
Suddenly, another old voice came down from above, like the warmest sunshine falling from the sky, and in an instant, the chill was completely driven out of Elnes's heart...
"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope!"
Elnes had already formed absolute obedience to the most familiar voice above her. Without any hesitation, Elnes bowed slightly and quickly exited the hall.
With Elnes's exit, the hall gradually fell into silence. Only two figures, one above and one below, were still looking at each other silently. The person on the throne above was naturally Hayes VI, the spokesperson of the Lord of Light in the Continent of the Gods.
The graceful figure below, if Nilac was here, he would definitely know her true identity. It was the Holy Ice Angel Lafayette who failed to kill Nilac that day.
"Mr. Hayes, the situation ahead is already very urgent. Not to mention those troops, even we have suffered considerable damage... It's time for you to take action, or... you decide, the most we can do is
Hold on for another two months!"
Star Eyes and Hayes had been confronting each other for a long time. As the prayers outside slowly faded away, Lafayette finally gave up first... No matter how cold the cold air in her eyes was, it froze people's hearts, but she couldn't move the deep pair of eyes above her.
Just like the eyes of the sea... This is a mysterious and unpredictable continent. The weak ones can be weaker than ants, but the strong ones can make her feel deeply.
feeling!
The simple Bible was gently put aside. Hayes VI slowly stood up, his eyes moved away from Lafayette, and slowly moved to the magnificent golden statue in front of the hall. His eyes were focused, as if
There are thousands of thoughts circulating in it, but if you look closely, it seems to be stagnant, without any fluctuations.
"It's not that time yet. Over there in the north... there is still half a year. Mr. Lafayette, I will hand them over to you, and you will have to support it for half a year!"
In Hayes' old voice, Lafayette's eyes jumped slightly: "Them?"
Confirmed in Hayes's eyes, Lafayette nodded slightly: "With them, it is not impossible to support for another half year, but... what if she shows up..."
"Don't worry about Queen Lilith. She also has many worries on this continent. She won't show up until the right time comes. But over there..."
The sun slowly set in the western sky. Hayes' eyes penetrated all the barriers and shot straight towards the north shrouded in shadow. After staring for a long time, he sighed in a low voice: "That's where I can't figure it out.
The real key to transparency!”
……………………………………………………
"Yes, compared to the current aggressive Dark Empire, the Undead Empire hidden in the shadows is the truly most terrifying enemy... If we cannot completely hold them back, we will never be able to devote all our strength to them.
Go to war with the Dark Empire!"
In the City of Glory, in the inner palace of Louis XV's palace, several people were also discussing the situation of the empire and how they should deal with it.
Through some channels, Louis XV had learned about St. Paul's Cathedral's attitude towards the war, and also understood the strength of Pope Hayes' support for the front... "They" came out in droves, and the entire holy city's defense force was almost empty.
Most of them... Of course, this defensive force did not include Pope Hayes!
"Your Majesty, you see that even they have gone out, shouldn't we also... Now is the best time. Once we succeed, I will control what is over there and you will control what is here, and you will never have to..."
Before the person next to him finished speaking, Louis XV interjected: "Don't be anxious, Archbishop, we have been waiting for so long, do we still care about such a short time... Please confirm the specific situation over there, I will
We also need to prepare here, what we need is foolproof... Well, once the time is indeed ripe, we will..."
"That's fine, you can make preparations here, and I'll make arrangements over there. When everything is ready, we'll..."
After a burst of murmurs, a red figure flashed out from the inner hall and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Hmph, you are so short-sighted and don't know whether to live or die. How can he be so easy to deal with! Even if there is a slim chance to deal with him, who will be able to deal with the subsequent situation..."
As soon as the man in red left, Louis XV's expression suddenly sank, and he shouted to the man in black next to him: "Go and invite Priest Alvin here, don't let anyone notice! Well, by the way, call Catherine too,
Please invite Marquis Labelle into the palace again, and I will personally receive him..."
Since returning to the Empire of Light, at Catherine's constant request, Louis XV has put many northern affairs in her hands. She is responsible for a considerable part of the intelligence activities of the Immortal Empire;
Marquis Labelle is the number one figure stationed in the City of Glory by the God of War Empire, and his family has a very high status in the God of War Empire...
At this time, they were called in at the same time. It seems that Louis XV also had to take some corresponding coordinated actions in response to the Holy City's actions!
