Chapter 951: Lack of healers...? Is there really a shortage?
Aiwass sat in the yard looking at the new moon, pouring himself a drink.
The summer evening breeze is not cold, but rather cool. There is no one in the royal garden, only the fairyland-like white mist is steaming.
The white mist steaming up from the lake flowed around Aiwass' feet, reaching the height of his ankles, not even his knees.
And suddenly, Aiwass raised his head and looked into the depths of the mist.
"——Why do you have time to come to me?"
Aiwass suddenly spoke.
In the fog ahead, a black shadow gradually approached.
That was none other than the first generation of the Dark Side, the Lich Grunewald.
An ordinary skeleton wearing a shabby black robe slowly walked over.
"Let's chat with you."
Grunewald's skull clicked, and a deep voice sounded from the bottom of Aiwass's heart.
He sat in the pavilion, opposite Aiwass.
The three jade locks hanging on the chest knocked against the ribs, making a crisp collision sound. Except for the dim yellow flames dancing in the skull, no trace of extraordinary power could be seen on the old skeleton.
"I guess it's about Fallen Sky Division, right?"
Aiwass asked casually: "What do you want to ask?"
He poured a glass of wine for the old lich and handed it to him.
The old lich lowered his head and looked at the glass of wine. He was silent for a while without any flesh on his body.
"Do you have any chance of winning?" Grünewald asked.
"There is no such thing as 'odds' - I have to win. If I don't win, I die."
Aiwass spoke firmly.
He had no room to retreat.
Among all the enemies he is destined to face in the future, Fallen Sky Division is considered the weakest among them. If he can't even get through this level, then he might as well send it earlier.
But Aiwass's determination made Grunewald a little surprised.
Obviously, Grunewald does not think that Aiwass will resolutely fight against the Fallen Division... This is normal. After all, Aiwass can now be said to be the top of power in the material world. As a former pope, Prince of Avalon
, the son of Si Zhu, he is already standing on the top of the mountain.
The other side.
Although Fallen Sky Division has descended into the material world and occupied Star Antimony... but that's all.
After the initial fear and despair, ritualists from other countries gradually analyzed the essence of the Ring of Ending ceremony.
The gods of the past were bound by the rituals of the Ring of Endings, and could only serve as mortal monarchs, and could not leave the scope delineated by the ritual - that is, the current territory of Xing Antimony. Moreover, the people of Xing Antimony must also recognize his rule, otherwise
The devil's power will weaken.
In this case, no matter how strong the Fallen Sky Master is, he is just like that - just a prisoner. Not to mention, he is far from as strong as he was in the dream world. The suppression of the Wall of Balance is also effective against him.
——As for Star Antimony, it’s none of their business anyway. Many people think so.
There are even some people who are gloating about the misfortune... After all, Xing Antimony was very aggressive before and offended far more countries than just Avalon.
Even if Xing Antimony plans to launch a war of conquest, that will happen later. Not to mention, they may not be able to defeat the demon legion without Fallen Sky Secretary present.
Therefore, if it were not for the hurried recruitment of troops by the Theocracy, all countries actually planned to continue to wait and see for a while.
We have to wait until Xing Antimony is completely dead before taking action.
Lest they consume too much power in the war, Star Antimony will be able to annex them after his resurrection.
Of course, the best situation is for other countries to work hard, while they themselves conserve their strength and mess around... Because of this, every country does not oppose conscription, but instead tries its best to preach that "this is a just war, a battle for survival."
” statement. The purpose is to inflict anger on others and do cruel things.
"The rich cherish their lives."
Grunewald's voice was low: "I thought you would choose a more conservative strategy."
The so-called more conservative strategy - that is, advancing slowly. This is the current mainstream response to the Fallen Division's invasion of the material world.
Keep a large number of civilians inside the Star Antimony to delay the integration process of the Fallen Division and the material world. Then station the legion from the outside, surround it without attacking, gradually eat away at the number of demon legions... and then slowly bulldoze all the buildings.
Although the ritual formation base cannot be seen once it is established, the ritual core can also be removed by destroying all nearby buildings.
In this way, the Fallen Sky Division will not be able to take the initiative to fight back, and their space will be gradually compressed. Only by sacrificing the entire Star Antimony can the Fallen Sky Division be suppressed within a single city with almost no risk.
"madness."
Aiwass sneered: "Do they think Fallen Sky Division won't take action? Or do they think Fallen Sky Division can't hit them?
"They don't think that the Fallen Sky Division is as powerless as a mortal, do they? They can't be destroyed by a river or a street? As long as the Fallen Sky Division wants to, even if he can't get out, he can easily destroy the legion... You should know
Is it something like this?”
"I am at the fifth level, of course I know."
The old lich nodded: "But too many people have no concept of the power of the fifth level or even the sixth level. Some people are overly pessimistic about the situation because of their fear of the gods; others are ignorant of the power.
Too optimistic about the situation.
"But if we directly launch a general attack... a lot of people will die. I'm afraid they won't hate the Fallen Sky Division, but they will hate the person who issued the order. Because the disaster of the Fallen Sky Division has nothing to do with them in the first place... What happens next?
Later."
"...Do you think I won't dare to take the blame?"
Aiwass finally understood what the old lich meant.
He just chuckled: "I also have a transcendent part of myself - what does transcendence mean? Whatever the means.
"I gathered people here urgently, on the one hand, to shorten the time for Fallen Sky Division to control Star Antimony, so that the fusion rate would not be so high; on the other hand, it was to not give these people a chance to react.
"If too much time is reserved, they will think randomly. But if I don't give them time, they can only execute it immediately.
"As long as I bring victory in the end, then everything won't be a problem."
"...What if there is no victory? The whole world will probably fall into chaos and despair."
"Then let the world bury me with me."
Aiwass said calmly.
He wasn't joking - but his words shocked the old lich.
He obviously did not know the existence of the end of the world, but felt Aiwass's ruthlessness and determination from it.
"Can you help me, Master Grünewald?"
Aiwass raised his head, clasped the wine glass with five fingers of one hand, and asked the old lich softly: "With your help, our winning rate will also increase a lot."
"……Can."
Grunewald was silent for a while: "But I'm not good at frontal combat. When the battle reaches a critical moment, I will drive the ziggurat over... Only with the ziggurat here can I exert my full strength. Otherwise, I may not be able to do it at all.
Break the Fallen Sky's resistance."
The old lich said frankly.
Aiwass nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you very much for your help."
"...Who else besides me?"
"Ligeia—that is, the former Meg, I believe you know that."
Aiwass replied: "There is also the Great Guardian of Avalon. He is still young and has also decided to join the war.
"I contacted Master Yanis. She is willing to provide us with assistance, but I'm afraid she won't be able to fight head-on. Master Chongbo owes me a favor, and he decided to come and help. There is also Mr. Zhu Tang from the Taichu Empire... He is now with us from
Mr. Mu, the eastern warrior monk, has entered the advancement ceremony. If everything goes well, we should be able to get at least one, maybe two, fifth-level helpers."
Having said this, Aiwass decided to reveal some important information: "As a Tiansi who controls the field of crime and punishment, the candidates to fight against the Fallen Sky Division are relatively demanding. First of all, they must be 'good people' - those who have committed crimes themselves.
Every major sin committed by you will become your own bondage in battle."
"...I'm afraid I'm not a good person."
The old lich sighed, and the hollow voice echoed with sadness: "In other words, the fifth-level transcendent of our generation...are basically unclean."
"I know. It is for this reason that many cardinals in the Theocracy also regretfully rejected my invitation - the only one who had the confidence to come was Cardinal Siegfried. He considered himself to be noble and pure.
soul."
Aiwass said so.
He originally planned to summon Favna, and then use the shepherding method to bind Helechin to his wife or his son - but Cardinal Favna refused.
Fafnir said that she could join the war at any time, but she didn't want her son to accept this cruel fate. As for herself...she didn't need the power mixed with the power of the undead. It would only weaken her as a dragon.
The power of.
"...But having said that, Cardinal Favna is not sure whether she can pass the test of Fallen Heaven Division, so she plans to wait and see from the outside. If everything goes well, she will join the battle. If not, she will help me deal with the incoming high-level demons.
They."
Aiwass sighed: "When she said that, I actually gave up hope."
——This is like "I'm not sure if this child is his." When Cardinal Favna felt that she might not be able to pass the Fallen Division's mortal sin test, there was a high probability that she would really fail it.
What surprised Aiwass was that Cardinal Matilda actually rejected him.
He originally thought that the gentle and gentle Cardinal Matilda was a purely good person.
"But Cardinal Galatea will come to help, and counting me... If everything goes well with Zhu Tang and Mu, we will eventually have eight people participating in the battle. If all of us pass the test, we will be in line with the number of transcendence.
"
Aiwass said.
In fact, this configuration is not very healthy - if it is put into the game, Aiwass feels that it has already been sent.
The only ones with enough vitality to absorb damage are Ligeia and Mu. The Great Guardian St. George and Cardinal Siegfried are all close-range output with a little more frankness.
Cardinal Galatea is on the path of beauty, she can be regarded as a bard, and can provide some insufficient remote output and group gain; Zhu Tang, as a great wizard, is a stationary long-read magic system output;
Master Chongpa can do some damage, but he mainly uses shields... He is the person with the strongest preservation skills in the world. The shield he created before can even block the attack of Fallen Sky in Tiansi's state without breaking instantly.
Now, the shield he created to protect the fallen Tiansi from attacks was obviously effective.
And Aiwass himself is half summoner, half wet nurse - the Lily and Yulia he brought in are part of his summoned creatures. When Aiwass takes back the beast of sin, they will lose their fighting power. They will
Their priority is not enough. If they are separated from the Sin Beast, they cannot deal any damage. They cannot fight independently and can only play a role in harassing them. Therefore, Aiwass did not count them.
——Then the problem comes.
Aiwass's mana is only enough to drive Paradise Lost three times without using the Light of Paradise.
If he needs to use other mortal sin cards, he won't have much mana available for healing.
If the team needs treatment, Aiwass must transform into a Sin Beast. Only by swallowing Sin Thorns to urgently restore mana can Aiwass heal the team members - and if this is the case, he will not be able to use Paradise Lost.
Explodes. Because the wings can only be summoned in the human state.
And even if he can regain mana, his mana must be given priority to his output... he won't be able to produce a few mouthfuls at all. If he goes to heal people, his output will not be enough.
——There are four melee fighters, only half milk and half shield. The only serious long-range output is Zhu Tang and Aiwass, and it’s hard to say whether Zhu Tang can break the defense. The other long-range players are all PVP players with full control.
——Of course I can’t control Fallen Sky Secretary.
A somewhat disappointing team.
The brothers seem to be just here to fight, and they don’t consider a protracted war at all.
The only good news is that the two main outputs are melee physical professions.
Physical damage cannot be determined by priority, because it does not belong to the power of the path. The damage cut is genuine... The premise is that the defense can be broken. The physical damage will only be reduced by the shield and defense. As long as the Fallen Sky Division explodes the armor, the two of them will
Even without the priority bonus, you still have a chance to deal damage.
Originally, Aiwass wanted Cardinal Matilda to be the treatment position...but she didn't come, and the team suddenly became strange.
"About this issue..."
But when he heard Aiwass' distress, the old lich was a little subtle: "I don't think you need to be distressed."
"……Why?"
"You'll know tomorrow."
Grunewald replied.
"...Can you please stop telling riddles, Herr Grünewald?"
"Okay," the old lich compromised obediently, "I came here...actually because a distinguished guest just arrived."
"guest……?"
Aiwass frowned slightly, a little strange: "Do I know him?"
"know."
The old lich nodded slowly: "She's here."
Aiwass heard "her" and suddenly realized something.
Feeling the strong, sun-like glow - Aiwass turned around.
In the white mist, another person was revealed.
"It's really you..."
Aiwass breathed a sigh of relief: "Now I feel confident."
What appeared in front of him was a pure-colored girl with white hair, white eyes, white robes, and white clothes, glowing in the white mist.
Her body was slender and thin, and her arms and thighs were so thin that they seemed likely to break if she wasn't careful.
But she was smiling, with a mother-like tenderness on her face. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Only Aiwass knew...just two months ago, she was only twelve or thirteen years old.
"Your Excellency Joan Eternal."
Aiwass said softly, and stood up politely and respectfully, taking the old lich with him.
The two of them bowed to the girl. The girl smiled and accepted it calmly.
Because she is the real former eternal pope who just resigned and became a saint!
Aiwass was a little surprised: "How could you... age so fast?"
——It’s less than two months after all the calculations have been made!
How come you have aged five or six years in two months?
Generally speaking, shouldn’t the lifespan of an eternal pope last twenty years after he leaves office?
At this rate... I'm afraid she might not even survive two years!
"I remember telling you... I burned relatively completely, and I don't have much time left."
Saint Ruoan said softly: "If there is a lack of healers, let me come. I will protect everyone.
"——I'm really happy that I can save the world after leaving my job. None of my predecessors are as lucky as me."
