Stonewood Fortress, the second city of Bayer Yongwang County, is also the last barrier of the capital Yongwang City. If this place also falls, it will almost declare that the entire Yongwang County has fallen. [
However, during the recent "holy war", Bayer lost this important barrier.
And when this prosperous county, which was well-known in Bayer, fell, it also meant that nearly two million people fell into the hands of the enemy, as well as resources of the same size, and the land lost control from Bayer.
Bayer's Eastern Front Army was defeated too quickly, and the people in the rear were unprepared. Most of the residents, including Duke Yongwang, did not evacuate in time and became prisoners of the Holy War. As a result, the Holy Church also
Won unprecedented victory and honor.
Different from the peripheral barren land that Bayer had just acquired, this county with a large population and rich in food, medicinal herbs, and handicrafts was an important territory of Bayer more than 300 years ago. His loss not only dealt a blow to the Bayer royal family.
Its reputation and prestige have actually had a negative impact on its national power.
After the sudden reinforcements resisted, when the evil dragons hiding among the heretics and heretics were beaten and fled by the giants and angels, the red archbishop Stephen had already planned to commit suicide due to guilt.
I feel like I have divine help, no, to be precise, I am the only one who is the lucky son favored by the God of Holy Light.
In fact, even the senior leaders of the Holy Church were not optimistic about the victory of this battle. The veteran Gordon, who was seventh on the list of famous generals, even refused to continue to fight. Therefore, they called in a team that had suffered a lot of criticism within the church due to the "credit-stealing incident".
The main reason for the criticism of Stephen, the former Bishop of Bayer Diocese, is that there are no bishop-level clergy willing to serve as leaders.
"Since you are destined to take the blame and step down, then it will be the same if you take one more blame."
Facts have proven that an airborne leader may not necessarily be taking credit, but may also be taking the blame. But if he is lucky, taking the blame may turn into taking the credit.
No one expected that at this critical juncture, when neither the enemy nor we seemed optimistic about the Templar Expeditionary Force, those cloud giants from the legendary stories would suddenly appear on the battlefield and suddenly find those hidden in the opponent's camp.
The evil dragon in the city and the Allies attacked it.
And then, those "friendly troops" who came with the Cloud Giant explained everything.
"Angel! A holy angel! We are still favored by our Lord!"
Humanity's worship of angels has been repeatedly strengthened in countless religious stories. When this kind of orderly creature that has long since left this plane appears, it often represents an irresistible oracle.
Even in that long night of the dead, when faced with the world's doubts about why the Templar Alliance has failed and the gods will not save us, they were still able to interpret it as a test from the gods to the world. This concept was not formed in ten years.
, and as noble and powerful perfect creatures in oral records, angels have attracted the attention of the world simply because they have joined the new jihad coalition. Countless clergymen travel thousands of miles to join them every day.
Even though the state of these angels is extremely strange, their entire beings are shrouded in strange golden armor, and even their faces are in their helmets, and their explanation that "we cannot adapt to this dirty world yet" was accepted by the church personnel.
, after all, the white wings that are constantly exuding white and golden brilliance cannot be faked.
No, it should be said that the bishops and most priests have fallen into inexplicable religious fanaticism after seeing the existence of the light of order with strong holiness, and seeing these angels holding blazing swords to slay demons.
.
Helent's defeat was not unjust. This was an angel legion of five hundred people. An adult angel was only slightly weaker than a giant dragon. The strength of a fully armed angel warrior could not be lower than the gold level.
The top leaders of the entire coalition no longer discuss the war that is not over yet, nor do they need to consider the deployment of troops. They are filled with the joy of the upcoming victory in the holy war. They believe that under the guidance of the holy sword of light, the dirty aliens will
All believers will be purified by the Holy Light, and those heretics who deserve death will be tied to the stake one by one.
And this kind of fanaticism not only spreads among high-level officials, but also ordinary soldiers and clergymen stare at the divine light with joy, wishing they could immediately go to the battlefield and kill.
"...There's something wrong there."
Only a handful of clergymen can still remain calm, and the best among them is Estrada, the 'Miracle Hand' who has just arrived on the battlefield. He originally refused to participate in the war, but was ordered to die by the Pope.
Arriving at the battlefield within a time limit, he originally came to the rescue bravely, but he did not expect such a situation.
Although Estrada has never seen an angel, he has come into contact with angel hybrids Elvira and Roland, and he already has a lot of understanding of angels, pure creatures of order. However, although these five hundred angels are surrounded by
Pure holy light, but it doesn't feel like the warm sun. It feels like a cold blade, which is completely different from the holy light of Avella and Roland.
"Although Elvira's holy light is pure, it has a flame-like anger. Her power is particularly effective against the undead. Roland's holy light, which is so pure that it can be used as a lamp, is unprecedented, but in fact it does not have many
The strong aggression is like the harmless sunlight. When we meet again in the Northland, the purity seems to have improved a step further, but the sun-like warmth has not changed at all. That light will not reject any life.
Come share.”
Strong people have their own energy characteristics, and the overflowing energy will often have their own emotions and characteristics. The Holy Light itself may not be different, but it will be when the touch of the human heart and soul is added. No one's energy fluctuations will be different from others.
They are exactly the same, but the more than 500 angels in front of them, let alone the energy characteristics, are exactly the same. The overflowing holy light lacks the most basic emotions of a living being, as if it is just a tool without emotion.
Others would probably only be frightened by the angels' astonishing capacity of holy light. The energy intensity of any angel is above the legend, but the strongest paladin's mastery of the holy light has reached the ultimate level in the world. He even
He could use the fluctuations of holy light to sense the talent and character of his apprentices, and he was therefore very fond of Avila, Roland and others. Seeing those angels who came to the mortal world from legends in front of him, he couldn't accept it.
"...During the battle, the pupils in the eyes only changed instinctively. The Holy Light did not have any enthusiasm. Even if it was in desperate situation, it did not fluctuate at all. All the angels did not have any emotional fluctuations. This is the gentleness and kindness in the legend.
An angel? This is simply, this is simply..."
Estrada didn't show it on his face, but he was hesitating and thinking deep down in his heart. He came into contact with the Law and Roland in the North. Although he has been increasingly guarded by the church's higher-ups recently, he has gained new understanding and understanding.
The idea, at least, of the Holy Light has become more neutral and rational.
And stepping across the cold armor and holy white wings, the strongest paladin's battlefield perception told him the truth. These angels did not look like normal creatures.
"...These angels are like mass-produced, emotionless killing weapons. They did not blink in desperate situations, not because they felt the honor of sacrifice, but because they felt a kind of indifference to make the best use of everything. When they saw their companions
Death is just like seeing the damage of a weapon."
The blasphemous words were not spoken, but he was not the only one who felt this way. Unlike the religious people who are falling into inexplicable fanaticism today, most paladins were busy with their own work and tasks in the past, and they were often unable to compare with those priests and bishops.
Living in a comfortable church all year round to preach, traveling around the world to eradicate evil is their daily life. Even guarding the temple, they have to come into contact with ordinary people in towns. After contacting angels, they are more secular and see them in the world.
After his performance on the battlefield, there were more or less doubts.
However, the following developments directly caused these doubts to expand into rifts.
"Purify? Massacre the city? The entire county? Those angels asked for it? Are you kidding? This is two million people! It's two million lives!"
While the superpower Bayer is in a stalemate, the situation of the quasi-superpower Oran seems to be turning around. Of course, the premise is that they can withstand this big wave.
In the first three months, Ms. Storm, who had suffered a loss in some aspects, found out that she did not seem to be targeted by Ayer, and that everything before was all a misunderstanding. She felt that the sea tribesmen were shaken by the failed war.
Because of his faith, he took action personally without hesitation.
The waves brought great misfortune to the towns along the coast of Bayer. Although the sea warriors who came ashore with the waves were unable to settle down, the meat and wealth they plundered were enough to feed these new members of the war.
After all, their appetites have not been raised like their fellow tribesmen in the Rain City. Their achievements in these side battlefields also make these Sea Tribe leaders qualified to move to the Rain City.
Some of those unlucky coastal cities withstood the crisis, while others had their walls broken by the sea water, and their sleeping residents were massacred. Maybe they should thank the Storm Lady for her "mercy", at least she did not send out the iconic sea wave.
Blame killing ordinary people.
But on another level, those sea monsters are already too busy on the Rain City front. Lady Storm has sent out all the sea monsters under her control, which may be the key.
And if those brutally slaughtered seaside residents are cattle and sheep in the slaughterhouse, then the front line of the Rain City is the meat grinder.
When the Sea Tribe and Lady Storm entered the counterattack period, new forms of Sea Tribe and sea monsters appeared in the rising water again. They would move forward along the waves, and the huge whale was actually used as a one-time battering ram.
, their broken bodies are often mixed with the rubble of the city gate, but there will be no survivors in the room where the door has been pried open.
In less than two days, all the small positions outside the large fortress were lost. Waves and big fish turned the ravines on the battlefield into pools and quagmires.
And when Oran's elite battleships and strong men tried to move back to the situation, they were surprised to find that a large number of storm priests were constantly summoning waves. At the same time, under the command of a blue-skinned woman, they summoned huge waves to attack the entire battlefield along the line.
wash.
"...She actually uses her incarnation to participate in mortal wars and uses divine power to massacre mortals? How shameless is this goddess?"
Even though it has entered the holy war period, the ban on the True God not allowing direct large-scale interference with mortals has been lifted, but this is the only example of the True God directly intervening in a mortal war. In a sense, this is like competing with adults, children, and animals.
If he was serious about it, other gods would probably laugh at him, but at this time, Lady Storm was completely shameless.
But the result of the true god's shamelessness was very direct. With her help, those storm priests caused the heavy rain in the Rain City to extend. With them came endless sea warriors, and the Oran defenders on the front were trapped.
Fight hard.
But suddenly, those warriors wallowing in the quagmire received good news that was visible to the naked eye.
"...It's sunny?"
Amid the surprise of humans and the disbelief of the sea people, the ever-lasting dark clouds suddenly began to disperse, and a little sunshine revealed from it shone on the face of the blue-skinned woman, but the noble gods were full of surprise and disbelief.
Even, there is fear. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
