The current situation is excellent, Gallo has gradually taken the initiative in the Kingdom of the Dead, and is disintegrating and modifying the structure of the Kingdom of the Dead bit by bit, eliminating the influence of Modo.
If this rate continues, the Lich can persist for about ten minutes at most, and the entire Kingdom of the Dead will change hands.
Lal also continued to show off his power. He was holding an artifact, backed by the King of Angels, and had an absolute advantage in terms of personality. The single target he bullied was of poor quality, and he was just a restrained undead creature, even if he was just a blank slate that looked like a puppet.
Angel, this wave can also be overwhelming.
During this process, Gallo also took great interest in gaining an in-depth understanding of the current existence and internal structure of the Kingdom of the Dead, and saw clearly the various modifications and arrangements made by the previous God of Death before his fall.
It has to be said that the God of Death is very accomplished in this area. This kingdom of the dead has very cleverly integrated the lichs within it, allowing each of them to provide power for the kingdom and maintain its existence.
Even those more powerful undead creatures, such as bone dragons, death knights, rare ghosts and resentful spirits, are also absorbing power.
But this consumption is actually not much, and the environment here is very suitable for the survival of undead creatures, so that the consumption and growth of their power show a good ratio.
Although the consumption is still more than the growth, permanent motion cannot be achieved, but as long as there are more than ten lichs, plus the undead army under their command, it is not a big problem to support it for hundreds or thousands of years.
This concept and idea is similar to allowing believers to directly share and bear the consumption of a divine kingdom, instead of being borne by the authority of the gods like a normal divine kingdom. Believers only serve as the basis for its existence; and replacing normal believers with undead creatures is not normal either.
not active belief, but active absorption.
Can it be regarded as a passive crowdfunding Kingdom of God?
Comparing the two ideas, each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Although the traditional method consumes a bit more, it is better than having complete control, is not prone to accidents, and does not depend on the number of believers.
Although the consumption of the idea of the God of Death is low, it is also much more dependent on believers, and it is prone to various unstable factors.
For example, now, with Lal's killing spree, the lichs below who had no way to escape have fallen one after another, and the undead creatures have disappeared in large numbers, and the entire country has begun to shake significantly.
If this continues, the entire country could easily collapse suddenly.
But this is a good thing for Gallo, it will help speed up the current process, and the in-depth analysis of the Kingdom of Death also gave him new ideas for modifying it into a cage later.
After clearing out all the undead, Gallo had already prepared a plan on how to support the country, and he was ready to take over the half of the power he had snatched from Visa.
However, it is feasible to support the consumption of two divine kingdoms at the same time with half of the authority, but it will greatly increase the loss of authority. If Gallo cannot find a way to supplement and maintain the authority, the authority will be lost, resulting in the loss of two divine kingdoms.
The country collapsed together.
Gallo got some inspiration from the modifications of the God of Death. In fact, this can be completely reversed. After imprisoning Eas in a new cage, let him passively bear the consumption of the two kingdoms; or take away the authority from him.
, using His three powers to maintain the two kingdoms of God.
Isn’t it beautiful?
"But, does this Eas really intend to sit back and wait for death? He doesn't seem to be such a coward, right? Does he really not want to do something?"
Gallo murmured in a low voice. Watching Lal show off his cruelty in front, it was inevitable that his hands would feel a little itchy.
However, it was daytime now, and he didn't even bother to take action against these inferior undead creatures.
It would be fun to have an evil god to kill...
It's a pity that Easi seems to have no reaction at all?
Logically speaking, he should be able to feel some movement here, right?
And now, it is the perfect opportunity for him to take action. Gallo is busy robbing the kingdom of the dead. Naturally, Wuxia takes action personally. There are three places that he needs to defend. Even if angels are sent to guard them, they should not be Eas.
The opponent of a true god.
"Such a God-given opportunity, this guy really doesn't move?"
"Isn't this guy more cowardly than Visa?"
Gallo couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a slight vibration coming from the two runes he had left for others, indicating that someone had used his power in the distance...
-----------------------
Long before Gallo took action, Artanis was reading an intelligence message sent back by a gryphon knight on the side of Yharnam City.
As Visa lost the Kingdom of God and was exiled to the outside world as cannon fodder, the remaining Visa followers had lost their last hope. The remaining power collapsed instantly. The believers either committed suicide on the spot, fled in all directions, or separated.
Join the Miya Cult and the Easi Cult.
Because the Miya sect became more powerful, it naturally gathered more people and transformed from a sudden outsider force into the largest and most powerful sect in Yanan City.
Artanis showed great power, and with the help of the angel Cross, he captured the entire city of Yharnam before the Winter Festival.
Nowadays, the Miya Sect no longer has a firm foothold, but has completely controlled the entire city.
On the empire's side, the Pope also actively traveled around, and through the sect's connections, he set up a long-range aerial supply line at an incredible speed.
With the support and cooperation of the major chambers of commerce in the empire, this is an aerial supply line based on aerospace crafts, which continuously transports a large number of personnel and supplies to the city of Yharnam along the trade routes between the two countries.
They no longer need Gallo to take action to ensure the manpower and materials in Yanan City.
As expected, the Shenguang Sect lived up to Gallo's expectations and completed this sacred expedition perfectly.
They even held a small-scale winter festival in Yharnam City with great interest to make up for the regret that the expedition soldiers could not celebrate the festival.
Although the scale and excitement cannot be compared with those in the empire, the atmosphere is quite good and warm. Artanis, who is wealthy and powerful, distributed a lot of materials to the believers with a wave of his hand. He even took the opportunity to preach and gathered more
Batch believers.
The Miya sect had been too strong before, and the sudden arrival of angels caught the cultists off guard, and they almost lost the control area in a hazy state.
But they also took advantage of the Miya sect's shortage of manpower and successfully escaped with a large number of effective forces.
Artanis wanted to pursue them, but unfortunately he didn't have enough manpower, so he could only let them go for the time being and start settling in the city.
As a result, the intelligence sent back by the Griffin Knights said that a large number of cultists were gathering not far outside the city, and they seemed to be planning to take back Yharnan City?
There are probably more than 20,000 of them. It seems that in addition to those who fled before, they have also received reinforcements from cultists in other areas.
The garrison strength in Yanam City currently only numbers over 3,000 people, but they have city walls and moats, as well as heavy ordnance such as crossbows and trebuchets, and there are angels on guard.
The opponent has no siege equipment and no mages. If they charge forward like this, even if they have a numerical advantage, they will die.
Artanis realized that there must be something wrong with this, and the other party was probably trying to use the power of the evil god.
So he quickly found the angel Cross and reported the matter to him.
Since Cross was sent by Gallo to guard Yharnam City, he has rarely taken action personally. He often only needs to release pressure to solve problems.
He spent most of his time in a temporarily cleared oracle hall, half-kneeling in front of a temporarily carved statue of Miya, praying silently. He was very quiet, rarely spoke, and did not allow believers to visit him.
She looks like a human female, without wings or halo, with a very pretty appearance, and a holy and noble aura about her. She also keeps her pressure to a minimum, and she really looks like an ordinary beautiful human girl.
This is an energy-saving mode specially designed by Gallo for his angels based on his own situation. In this case, their consumption will be much lower. This is also a new mode that will be promoted on a large scale in the future.
After hearing Artanis's report, Cross' eyes that seemed to have been closed forever narrowed his eyes slightly, looked out the window of this simple oracle hall, and said after a long time:
"Be careful, I have a bad feeling."
"The king is doing a big thing, Wuxia has no worries..."
Halfway through his words, Cross suddenly stood up. A white light flashed across his body, and he had put on the mechanical armor specially designed by Gallo.
"Get ready to fight, the enemy is coming!"
He said something again, and two bright rays of light burst out from the shoulder blades behind him, and gradually condensed into the shape of wings. At the center of the wings, where the vest was, an angelic halo also emerged.
After transforming back into an angel, Cross spread his wings and flew high, hovering over the city of Yharnam.
Then, He pulled out a shining long sword from his waist, and tapped the sword lightly with his other hand, playing a pleasant melody.
After hearing the melody, ordinary believers originally planned to worship, but they felt a strong sense of sleepiness coming over them and fell directly into sleep.
This is a kind of protective hypnosis that can keep ordinary people's minds stable and prevent them from being affected by all kinds of inexplicable things in the subsequent battle.
While he was hypnotizing his followers, Artanis was busy gathering unaffected warriors to prepare for battle.
And almost at the same time that Gallo took action against the Kingdom of the Dead, a series of spatial fluctuations suddenly came from somewhere in the sky of Yharnam City.
A giant black vortex gradually unfolded in the air, and from the deep darkness in the middle, large streams of sticky black material poured out. It looked like the originally blue sky had been painted with ink.
Like one stroke.
The black matter fell to the ground, divided into two pools, and quickly condensed into different forms.
One of the pools turned into a humanoid creature with only the upper body, and more than ten human faces of various sizes on its head, as if countless human faces were pasted on this pool of black mud.
Those human beings maintained expressions of pain, struggle, twisting, crying, etc., which looked very painful and looked particularly visceral.
The soldiers guarding the city didn't dare to look any further. As long as they stared for a moment, they would feel dizzy and unsteady on their feet.
The upper body of this monster also has a pair of thin and long claws. It has no lower body and just squirms and flows like an ooze monster.
After its body shape gradually solidified, the dozen or so humans above its head let out various harsh and strange sounds, which seemed to be a mixture of cries, screams, laments, and roars.
And the bursts of coercion coming from it showed that this thing was an evil god puppet, similar to the old familiar person Gallo met in the City of Innocence before.
The moment the awake soldiers heard the strange scream, they felt a wave of despair and fear welling up in their hearts, and began to gradually fall into the abyss of madness.
Fortunately, Cross in the sky began to strike the sword with greater strength, and the power of authority from the 'dream' blessed the warriors, allowing them to enter a strange state where they seemed to be awake and yet in a dream.
In status.
This is a special use of dreams, allowing people to maintain this wonderful 'lucid dream' state, like some kind of controlled sleepwalking, which can isolate the sound of the evil god's puppet and move freely.
After roaring for a while, the evil god puppet's two giant claws began to crawl on the ground, approaching Yannan City step by step.
At the same time, another pool of black mud gradually took shape.
Compared to the puppets, this pile of black mud was much larger in quantity, forming a black hill on the surface. The black material on it continued to flow and twist, gradually turning into a structure similar to a large tree.
This big black tree looks taller than the city wall of Bianan City. The trunk is twisted and tangled, with dark red ribs protruding like thick blood vessels. The whole tree seems to be alive.
.
The surrounding black branches are covered with fruits that look like human heads, and human faces appear on the surface of each fruit, all with various expressions of pain and distortion.
Waves of terrifying and suffocating pressure continued to emanate from the entire tree. Without Cross's protection, the entire Yharnam City defenders might collapse in an instant.
This tree is the tree of Moros, the descendant and follower of Eaz, the Pillar of Lies.
He actually came down in person, bringing a powerful evil god puppet with him to approach Yanan City.
Not only did he come, but in the camp where the cultists gathered in the distance, there was suddenly a strong smell of abyssal demons. As a portal opened, one after another huge demons filed out of it.
Among them, there are many powerful individuals such as violent demons.
This is the Seventh Demon King of the Abyss, a subordinate of Cyrus.
It is both Moros's father and one of his brothers.
Father, son and brothers take action together, and they are bound to deliver a fatal blow to Yanan City!
At this time, Gallo is reaching the most critical moment and cannot be distracted at all. The city of Yannan seems to be in danger?
