Even though the area of responsibility for each legion had been planned at the beginning, and efforts were made to prevent them from meeting and conflicting... However, conflicts still emerged.
Initially, it was because the mages were attacked by demons when they occupied the ziggurat.
The mages made a relatively stupid decision - when they arranged the ritual circle and transformed the ziggurat into a mage tower, they refused the protection of the Moon Sons. In other words, only the Moon Sons from the Narcissus Principality were allowed to enter.
Inside the ziggurat.
Of course, this is understandable. Therefore, it can only be said to be relatively stupid.
After all, the construction process of the Mage Tower is a secret that is not passed down in the entire Narcissus Principality. It is the most core secret. It is equivalent to the gryphon eggs of Avalon - and considering that this is a replicable and mass-produced process,
Unless a griffon egg is a resource that can be strictly controlled, it can even be said to be more precious than a single griffin egg, equivalent to the entire breeding system of a griffin.
Presumably no one would think that these Children of the Moon have any good intentions - especially the Children of the Moon of Iris. Their belief is still in the Blood Tiansi, and they are even less trustworthy than the Children of the Moon of Star Antimony!
What a coincidence.
——The children of the moon do have bad intentions.
The Mage Tower is a strategic-level facility. It can control the weather within dozens or even hundreds of kilometers, carry out almost non-stop spell bombing of areas dozens of miles away, and can also perform group teleportation at the company level.
Even if it is not used in war, the ability to control celestial phenomena can also be used in people's livelihood.
This technology is completely monopolized by the Narcissus Principality. Even when Star Antimony occupied the Narcissus Principality, they were unable to obtain the manufacturing method of the mage tower from the mage lords. Now that they have such an opportunity to watch openly, they are wary of these mages.
Being turned away...then the Children of the Moon would naturally be unhappy.
At this moment, the demons attacked the mage tower.
The attack time chosen by these demons was much rougher than before - they failed to choose to attack at the most critical moment, and were slightly delayed by two hours. As a result, these mages sacrificed more than ten people, but they still managed to hold on.
The transformation of the mage tower was completed due to the attack of demons!
Fortunately, there are still some Moon Children transformed by mages here.
The Children of the Moon are resistant to curses and illusions, and can directly swallow phantoms. For ordinary humans, they only suck blood, but for demons, it sucks souls. These Children of the Moon beat the demons away, and if the people present
If there were a little more, this small force could easily be defeated by them in an instant.
After the demons left, the Children of the Moon who were guarding under the tower arrived belatedly.
The surviving mages immediately took action - they had obviously sent a distress signal, why didn't they come to rescue immediately?
The Son of the Moon also said: The layout of the mage tower is extremely critical. According to the original layout order of the Pope, it should be under the intensive protection of the Griffin Legion, the Son of the Moon, and the scouts of the Black Eagle Principality. But you mages disobeyed the order.
, not only did you not wait for the Griffin Legion and the scouts to arrive, but you even drove out 80% of the Sons of the Moon. Isn't this deliberately creating a loophole? We even suspect that you have spies there and are colluding with the other side!
Of course, it was impossible for the mages to admit this accusation, so they severely criticized the Sons of the Moon for not coming to the rescue. The Sons of the Moon also insisted that they did not see it.
Then there was a conflict between the Sons of the Moon and the mages.
Immediately afterwards, the anxiety caused by this conflict spread - the mages were busy arguing with the Son of the Moon, and no one modified the standby mode of the mage tower. They had just finished fighting the demon, and now the demon may come back at any time.
Therefore, it is reasonable to switch to alert mode.
The mage tower that enters the alert mode automatically defends and attacks all those approaching it. If the rescue had not been timely, some soldiers would have been directly killed by lightning - this lightning is a special defense method against demons, and it is used to defeat all enemies.
The soldiers who are armed and wearing metal armor are also outstanding. This can be saved entirely because St. John's milk supply is large enough.
The soldiers were blocked at the door for a long time without being let in, and they were still coming ashore in a steady stream. There were more and more piles here, and they just stood here. No matter how they contacted the front, there was no reply. Finally, they went back to mobilize a wave of griffons.
The legion mobilized a wave of gryphon knights who were not afraid of lightning and rushed in.
As a result, in the mage tower, the Son of the Moon and the mages were already fighting.
To be precise, there was a split within the Moon Sons.
Although they are both Sons of the Moon and have a unified racial consciousness, the Sons of the Moon who sided with the Narcissus and Black Eagle Principalities had a fierce conflict with the Sons of the Moon who sided with Iris. The Sons of the Moon who sided with Iris
The Son of the Moon has long been displeased with the Son of the Moon in the Narcissus Principality - he actually dares to rely on magic tricks to steal the power of the great Blood Heavenly Division!
——It’s not so much a quarrel as it is looking for trouble.
They were really nervous at first, but after actually seeing the demon army at sea, they felt... these demons didn't seem to be as powerful as the Pope said at the beginning.
Even high-level demons are only at the third energy level now. Some powerful demons may have special suppressive power based on their status, but they are only the power of the fourth level. From this point of view, everyone is actually
Pretty much the same.
The moment they relaxed, evil thoughts flooded into their minds.
——It’s as if I was concentrating on preparing for the exam. Because I heard that you can pass this exam only if you go all out, so I planned to abandon all temptations and concentrate on saving my grades; but as soon as I started reviewing, I heard that the exam was changed to
After I opened the book, I suddenly became slack and even lost my energy at all.
And just then.
Aiwass took action.
Contrary to what everyone expected - the eternal pope did not calm down the conflict gently.
Instead, he summoned the phantom demon of the path of devotion called the Flame Butterfly, and punished him with the power of thunder!
When the mage tower was on alert, the sky was filled with gyro-like dark clouds - but the pillar of fire ejected by the Paraflame Butterfly actually pierced the sky, and in an instant, people with evil intentions and different ideas were captured.
People are shocked by it!
——He killed the first mage who decided to disobey the order, and the first Moonchild who took the initiative to attack the mage.
Public execution at the stake.
He no longer uses gentle and philosophical words, nor does he rely on his temperament as brilliant as the sun, but like a ruthless and iron-blooded soldier, truly punishing those who violate discipline.
Immediately afterwards, Ligeia and the Great Guardian took over command and began to purge.
They also showed great aggression - but after Aiwass showed his fifth-level destructive power, this kind of discipline did not lead to mutiny.
——The Holy Knight Legion belonging to the Pope is still watching behind them.
When the Pope made it clear that anyone who disobeyed the command would be killed immediately, the voices within the coalition became much quieter.
Although the atmosphere was much duller, at least we were able to perform our tasks normally.
But people can't help but have some doubts... Is there something wrong with His Majesty the Pope?
It's like a new person, not as gentle as at first...
But at dinner time, Aiwass appeared inside the legion again.
Just when people were terrified and wondering if someone was going to be killed again.
This pope showed his radiant and glorious temperament.
He no longer had the determination, madness and ruthlessness that he had when he was burned at noon, but was as holy as when they first met Aiwass - even gentler than that.
The Pope did not care about his sacred clothes being stained with mud. He sat directly on the ground and chatted and laughed with the soldiers.
Later, when the soldiers compared their memories with each other, they were unable to determine where the Pope had appeared.
Because Aiwass seemed to appear in many places that night - and the distance between their camps didn't seem to support Aiwass running all over the place.
But no matter where Aiwass appears in many places, the topic of discussion is the same:
——Talk about your family/hometown.
"Really, it turns out that's what it is..."
When Aiwass heard what he was happy about, he couldn't help but clasped his hands together and clapped his hands. He was as happy as an innocent child, and the soldiers seemed to be infected by that smile.
He ate the same rough food as the soldiers, but he didn't feel disgusted.
He used lighting techniques for the soldiers, treated them carefully, and did not hesitate to use his magic power and prayers.
He also sang songs from his hometown with the soldiers, or played musical instruments from his hometown. The Pope was such a genius that he learned how to use these instruments after just listening for a while.
It only stayed for a short while, but when Aiwass left, people already had a new understanding of the pope. It was not as radical, sacred and inflammatory as the initial speech; nor was it just an execution.
The two of them suppressed the madness of a mutiny. He was ruthless and decisive. His words were not so passionate. He was as gentle and friendly as the boy next door, and as cunning and wise as a fox. But anyone
It's impossible to hate him.
He is a person who is warm and bright, as indispensable as the sun.
People bid farewell to Aiwass reluctantly.
The procession to see off the Pope could even spread to the corners of the valley.
"I'm afraid I will never forget him for the rest of my life..."
A soldier from Black Hawk said this with nostalgia and respect.
Not to mention the Pope, he has never even seen a count or viscount step onto the battlefield. Even if there are a few barons or lords participating in the war, they are all officers and it is impossible to gather with them. Let alone with these people
Chatted cordially.
——"Aiwass" will not take off the mask from his face until he is completely out of the sight of others.
That's not Aiwass, but it's not Isabel either.
——But the Great Guardian!
Of course, sometimes it's Ligeia. After all, George can't be missing forever.
As the monarch of a country, Isabel cannot leave Avalon for a long time and directly step on the front line of the war. Especially since she doesn't even have an escort by her side and is pregnant, Aiwass can't trust her to rush there.
come over.
However, Isabel's Puppet Tantra can do this.
She put on Aiwass's puppet and turned into Aiwass' appearance - and Aiwass handed over the puppet that belonged to Isabel to others.
In this way, the others took on Isabel's puppet, and were taken over by Isabel's will and turned into Isabel's appearance; but at this time, Isabel had already put on Aiwass' puppet.
The original "Puppet Tantra" is closer to a kind of magic. When Isabel turned into Aiwass, Aiwass's will and soul were summoned and attached; when Selene turned into Isabel,
The same is true. Although Selene can break free from control at any time, she is actually possessed by Isabel.
This is the origin of the name "Puppet". Its essence is a kind of puppetry and dependence.
Aiwass originally planned to use this method to control his body with his own will, and only used Isabel as a "bystander" to purify it.
However, Isabel gave Aiwass an unexpected surprise.
With her current ability to master illusions and the authenticity of the illusions she creates, she no longer needs to invite Aiwass's will, she can directly disguise herself as him!
Although in this way, the Aiwass ability she uses will directly drop one level... that is, she can only use the fourth-level Enlightener ability, but it is enough.
Therefore, the "Aiwass" here in Star Antimony now is actually neither Aiwass nor Isabel, but just a mask.
——The person who controls this identity and plays this role now is Isabel who is still in Avalon!
Isabelle has no wind-attributed mana.
Because of this, Isabel's body cannot move at supersonic speeds through the elementalization of the gryphon.
After all, Lancelot's surname "du Lac" means "of the lake." Therefore, if Isabel's full name is translated, it can actually be called "Isabel of the lake." This name is enough to show that she is born with
Water attribute affinity - although she has not used any water attribute spells.
——But, a mask is okay. Just like a sword, a suit of armor is also okay!
The person who works the hardest, besides Isabel, is the Great Guardian.
He and his griffon Philip witnessed everything - first it was the Great Guardian who served as the "clothes rack", and then it was Ligeia's turn. Ligeia also has wind-attributed magic and can ride the griffon to the "next destination".
"Scene" to re-live the famous song "The Great Aiwass" for people.
Isabel acted in ten plays in a row.
She learned the news at two o'clock and was ready by four o'clock. After that, she played the role of Aiwass through remote control for eight hours, and she didn't even have time to eat. After all, she had already eaten in the middle.
After two meals, her brain told her that she was full.
But the effect is very good - the Aiwass played by Isabel is more like "Aiwass" than the Aiwass who is now polluted by the Fallen God.
Even Aiwass himself has a hard time coming up with this flavor!
With Isabel here and the "ubiquitous Aiwass", the chaotic situation in Star Antimony immediately became much calmer.
The next two days will require Isabel to maintain this level of close attention.
Aiwass only hoped that Isabel would remember to rest and eat.
And he himself didn't have time to eat and sleep - he still had other work that belonged to him.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was another "Aiwass" here to replace him, he took the Flame Butterfly in Flame Butterfly state to the interior of Star Antimony.
He remembered another important thing...
That's why old James got into the Fairy Queen's birdcage.
Because both he and Cardinal Loki have mastered the "Star Gazing Tantra", and Cardinal Loki can detect his every move!
In order to avoid the prophecy, he got into the gap between the dream world and the material world. It was not until the death of Cardinal Loki that he finally escaped. After that, he appeared in the Theocracy because he had no one to fear.
——In other words, he must not be in the Fairy Kingdom now.
Aiwass had been avoiding him before, plus he was afraid of James... so he never thought of looking for him.
But it's different now.
The killing intent from the Fallen Sky Division made Aiwass become more decisive.
He requested advanced divine magic from the Lord of Scale Feathers - this true prophet gave Aiwass "James' true position".
He didn't know what role James would play in Huantiansi's plan, and he didn't know what Huantiansi's follow-up plan would be.
But since James is the "savior" created by Huantiansi's loyal apostle Anna... then what Aiwass has to do is to smash Anna's plan.
Although I don't know what you are going to do, it must be the right thing to screw up everything you are going to do.
Aiwass, wearing a hood, walked quietly in the wild.
——He is going to kill someone.
When Huan Tiansi was unable to predict and interfere with him, remove his most critical chess piece.
at the same time……
It is also revenge for Yulia.
Aiwass still remembers what James said to him——
He just wants to kill Yulia to make himself regretful and open the door to the past.
But today's Aiwass is no longer as weak as it was back then.
The only thing that Aiwass doesn't want to change is his tendency to hold grudges.
