Through the runes left in Yharnam City, Gallo learned about the crisis that was being encountered there, and also discovered the advent of the Moros Tree.
The enemy occupies an absolute advantage on paper...
What they sent was a powerful combination of a slave god, an evil god puppet, high-level demons and a large number of cultists. On the other hand, on the Yharnam City side, the defender only had one angel.
If you only look at the data panel, the angels are slightly inferior to the gods, their status is slightly lower, and their authority is also slightly worse.
After all, angels only borrow authority, while God shares authority. There is a very obvious difference between them.
But there are advantages and disadvantages. Although the gods are more powerful than angels, if the gods fall, the shared authority will also be lost, or even taken away by the enemy.
If Gallo is determined enough to give up the Kingdom of the Dead and return to the aid of Yannan City, he is likely to seize some of the three powers of 'lie', '**' and 'despair'.
Therefore, the Moros Tree is both a threat and a bait...
And not only the city of Yannan, the holy city of Canning was also attacked by the evil god's descendants and evil god's puppets!
There are also threats and temptations coexisting over there...
But on the contrary, the Innocence City was not attacked or harassed.
But sometimes not being attacked does not necessarily mean that it is a good thing. The enemy is probably hiding in the dark, ready to attack, waiting for the opportunity to strike a fatal blow.
Gallo had to beware of Eas launching a more violent attack on the Innocence City.
Silent threats are sometimes more frightening, not to mention that Easpen is the evil god in charge of 'lies', so he is undoubtedly more threatening in this regard.
I have to admit that Eas, a veteran evil god who can control three powers, is much more difficult to deal with than Visa.
Obviously, she has a broader vision and information channels than Visa. She has clearly found Gallo's whereabouts and deduced his purpose.
Then he played a very fancy multi-line operation and set a very difficult multiple-choice question for Gallo.
Abandoning the Kingdom of the Dead, which is almost in hand? But is it to support the Holy City, the headquarters of a branch sect? Or to support an important branch mine? And how to guard against possible threats to the Innocence City?
Even if there are folds and crosses, it is difficult to take into account multiple directions at the same time.
And if he chooses the wrong step in the process, Gallo is likely to fall into Easi's trap. He has no strength, but is played by applause.
This veteran evil god's plan can be said to be very accurate.
But after Gallo thought for a while, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that my previous arrangements were finally in vain..."
"Hehe, if you don't have enough power and harass people in multiple lines, you may end up killing people in multiple lines..."
Having said that, he stopped paying attention to the various messages coming from far away for the time being, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the process of robbing the Kingdom of the Dead. He did not disrupt the original plan because of Easi's multiple lines.
-------------------
On the side of Yharnam City, after the Moros Tree and those demons arrived, they were not in a hurry to take action. They just let the evil god puppet move forward first, as if exploring the path.
It can be seen that He is very afraid that a king of angels will suddenly appear in the city and chop him into firewood.
But after waiting for two minutes without noticing any extra breath, he realized that the other party should have given up here.
According to Eas, if the King of Angels does not appear within a short period of time, it means that he has made a choice and will not appear again.
Next, it’s time to enjoy the carnage!
The Tree of Moros no longer hesitated, and the human-head-like fruits hanging on the branches all turned towards the angel Cross in mid-air. The mouths of each human head opened wide, while uttering a series of deadly murmurs.
, and also sprayed out colorful light pillars, like fireworks, which looked quite dazzling.
Those light beams all shot at Cross, blocking all his dodge angles.
This is an attack from the power of authority, but until the attack hits and the power of authority takes effect, no one knows which power of authority it is and what terrible effects it will have.
Although the Tree of Moros has the title of 'Pillar of Lies', it also shares the three powers of Eas, and each of them can be taken back to attack the enemy. For this reason, it also specially disguises the color of the attack to let the enemy
It is impossible to determine what kind of attack it was.
After all, it is a 'lie', meant to keep the enemy from figuring it out.
Since there was no way to dodge, the angel simply chose not to dodge. The wings of light on his back rolled back, wrapped around his body, and withstood the enemy's attack.
The moment he was illuminated by the colorful beams of light, Angel Cross's consciousness became lost, and all kinds of strange desires began to grow deep in his heart.
The woman who surrendered to Eas; the woman who killed all those small humans; the woman who ascended the throne herself...
It seems that the other party is using the power of ** authority. Even angels are not immune to such mental pollution?
Cross quickly tried to use his own rationality to fight, constantly telling himself that Eas is the evil god; humans are the group he wants to protect; I have no interest in the throne...
But at the moment when he tried to fight against these desires, he discovered that these strange thoughts that had arisen before were actually not strong. As long as he calmed down a little, he seemed to be able to throw them out of his mind.
These are all fake! Not what I really think!
Cross felt that his consciousness suddenly regained consciousness, and it seemed that he had defeated the evil god's mental pollution.
But immediately, an even stranger thought came into his mind.
Are these thoughts false? So what should I really be thinking?
What is true? What is false?
Where am I? What am I doing?
Who am I?
His consciousness seemed to have fallen into a quagmire for a moment, and began to fall into an abyss like some kind of philosophical speculation.
If this continues, his consciousness will completely sink and he will never be able to wake up.
It turns out that the Tree of Moros does not use the power of political authority, but the 'lie' that it is best at and is best at.
This insidious and strange authority can not only make the other party believe your lies, but also make the other party confused about what is true...
The most reasonable mode of use is to use the two effects together, which is much more deadly than a simple lie.
The Tree of Moros noticed that the other angel had fallen into the whirlpool of lies and truth, so it further exerted its power of authority and imposed darker spiritual pollution on him.
I'm not what you call an angel...
I am just a small and powerless existence...
I am nothing……
More strange thoughts emerged in Cross's consciousness one after another, completely immersing him in the whirlpool of lies.
The light wings and halo behind Him became increasingly dim, as if they were about to perish.
Fortunately, he is still a genuine angel with an extremely strong will and continues to fight against mental pollution.
If replaced by ordinary humans, the Tree of Moros could easily drive humans into complete madness simply by relying on the advantage of personality crushing.
Just like He did in the sinless city.
Seeing that the opponent's angel was about to lose its support, the Tree of Moros added insult to injury and continued its deadly attack, launching the most deadly offensive.
The head-like fruits on His branches began to make a piercing cry in unison:
"Perish! You are nothing..."
"Disappear! You shouldn't exist in the world..."
"Embrace death! That is your final destination..."
This is the deadliest move of the power of lies, the ‘true lie’
It's a bit like the feeling of "three people become a tiger". When countless voices tell lies, the power of authority can make these lies become the truth in an instant.
If he cannot make an effective counterattack, then Cross's consciousness will not only fall into the abyss, but his entire existence will fall and disappear.
For ordinary people, such a method of forcibly twisting lies into the truth is tantamount to the legendary magic of speaking and speaking.
However, the target is an angel, so the Moros Tree requires a little more effort.
At the same time, the evil god puppet controlled by him was not idle either and continued to crawl towards Yannan City.
The demons from the abyss also advance at the same time.
Without the protection of Cross, this puppet and those demons alone would be enough to destroy the city of Yharnam.
The light wing behind Cross was so weak that he could barely see clearly, and his figure was already crumbling in mid-air, as if he was about to fall in the next second.
But at the moment when the wings and halo behind him completely disappeared, a shining rune suddenly lit up where the halo had been.
Wings suddenly grew again behind him, and the halo lit up again.
But those wings are no longer the weak-looking light wings before, but mechanical wings with a strong sci-fi feel and metallic texture.
The halo is also replaced by that rune.
The colorful beams of light that continued to shine on Him were swept away by an invisible force emanating from the runes.
The Tree of Moros could feel that it had lost part of its authority in the blink of an eye...
The opponent's counterattack was completed in an instant.
"How can this be?"
The skull fruits hanging on the branches shouted in unison.
But what's worse is that he keenly feels that his opponent's status seems to have been improved?
It was obvious that he was about to fall, but he suddenly made a silent comeback and completed the reversal in an instant?
The Tree of Moros could not understand how this could happen...
"Everything is as expected by the king..."
Cross, who was resurrected with full health, whispered in a low voice. He lowered his head and glanced at the approaching army of demons and cultists. He was able to free up his hands and cast two magical spells, hitting them from a distance.
The Moros Tree suddenly let out a roar, and the Skull Fruit opened fire again, shining its beam at Cross, who had changed his form.
But this time, not only did the opponent not dodge or evade, he didn't even defend himself, allowing the beam to shine on him.
But He remained motionless, not affected at all.
The power of lies seems to have completely failed?
"Sure enough, just like the king said, if you bring the power of lies, then you must die here..."
"You and your glow sticks make me feel ridiculous!"
Cross whispered, raising the long sword in his hand high, and a holy flame ignited on the blade.
But he did not attack the larger Moros tree, but threw it at the evil god's puppet that was already very close to Yharnam City.
The puppet roared and raised its claws, intending to block the threatening sword.
The Skull Fruit on the Moros Tree also began to use the 'True Lie' ability, shouting in unison:
"Your attack is pointless!"
However, the power of authority still did not take effect. The ferocious and twisted evil god puppet was stabbed cleanly through the body, as if a black rag was nailed to the ground with a nail.
Although it did not die directly, it could not move. It struggled and roared, but it was completely in vain. The blazing holy flames on the sword continued to burn its body, and the roars and wailings were endless.
"This is impossible, my power? My authority?"
The Skull Fruit shouted in unison with deep doubts and confusion.
Although He has lost part of his authority, in theory, He still has the remaining authority to launch an offensive.
"You can deceive me, but can you deceive the world?"
"Fall! Filthy and evil thing!"
Cross asked coldly, and the mechanical wings on his back turned around, spraying thin light curtains from the top of the feathers, weaving a net in the air, cutting towards the immovable body of the Moros Tree.
