St. George naturally knew this and launched a chase and interception of Sophilia.
But the effect is not ideal.
Sophia Liya's speed advantage is too obvious, regardless of consumption.
The large army of angels could only follow her and eat ashes.
Sophia Liya specializes in picking weak persimmons. If the number of angels does not exceed ten, she will be beaten. If the number of angels exceeds ten, they will be defeated.
As for setting up traps and ambush.
It's even more of a big joke.
An angel is a huge energy source. Even ordinary people who are not sensitive to energy fluctuations can feel something strange even though they are several kilometers away. Not to mention that a bunch of angels gathered together are very sensitive to energy fluctuations.
people.
As for using divine spells or domain spells to change the plane laws for cover, there are also similar problems.
This unconventional change of plane laws also requires the consumption of energy as leverage.
As long as a large amount of energy is used, traces will be left and energy fluctuations will be left.
If the environment itself has sufficient energy and energy fluctuations, it may be possible to cover it up.
However, the elemental fluctuations in the Ashan continent are still lacking, which will make them more obvious.
The only solution is to place the ambush personnel beyond the opponent's perception range.
This is indeed possible.
The Angel Legion had already used it, and Sophilia didn't realize it was a trap at first.
But the problem was that by the time the ambush reinforcements arrived, Sophilia had already led the light beasts to kill most of the twelve angels left in the trap.
Sophilia collected the light war beast and jumped out from the gap in the encirclement.
The trap of disconnection is not a trap, but an initiative to deliver food to the other party.
After Saint George realized that nothing could be done, he did not continue the positional battle with Sophilia where every inch of territory was necessary.
Instead, they decisively abandoned most of the Ashbone Towers and concentrated their forces to heavily defend the five Ashbone Towers closest to Dimos and his army.
Although the energy provided by the five Ash Bone Towers cannot satisfy the entire consumption of the Angel Legion, it will at least slow down their weakness.
We will not fall into a situation where we are unable to resist in a short period of time.
This cold war stalemate between the two sides lasted for a whole week before new changes occurred.
The key figure in this Cold War, St. George, disguised himself and sneaked back to St. Andrews from the front line.
During the Cold War stalemate, Sean and Sophia Liya made similar speculations, and the two also increased their patrols of the surrounding area.
But facing the vast area, their patrol vision is too weak.
It is difficult to lock down St. George when he is on the road alone.
Soon, Saint George and the angel phantom merged into one again, took the initiative to greet Sean, and said to Sean: "Your Excellency, the lord, should have seen the current situation. In a short period of time, it is impossible for both of us to do anything to the other."
, how about I propose a temporary truce?"
"Truce?" Sean said angrily with a smile, "You are the one who declared the war undeclared, and it is you who proposed the truce. What do you think of me, the leader of the Yongye Army? You want to come to your back garden?
Just come and leave whenever you want? There is nothing so cheap in this world."
"Although we started the war, you were the cause of the war. You occupied a large area of the royal family's territory and have not returned it. You even directly stole the entire Manyu Army. The place where we fought before was not you.
Commander Yongye, but Commander Manyu of the Feren family, you are the out-and-out invaders." Pope St. George also began to seize the moral high ground.
"What does the dispute between us and the royal family have to do with your Holy See? What qualifications do you have to make the decision to send troops on behalf of the royal family? Or is it that the Lancelot royal family has become a thing of the past? From now on, this land will be owned by your Holy See and you.
The Pope has the final say? If that's the case, then you are the biggest thieves, right?" Sean counterattacked equally aggressively.
"You are making a false accusation. This war was allowed by Queen Enid and led by the Royal Court's new army. Our Holy See only provided a small amount of assistance to our believers." St. George's ability to tell lies with open eyes is absolutely first-rate.
of.
"Do you believe this?" Sean sneered. He didn't bother to waste any words to refute something like this that anyone with a discerning eye could tell.
In front of the Angel Legion, the new Wang Ting Army was just there to make soy sauce.
If it were just the new army of the Royal Court, even if they crossed the dividing line of the mist, they would not be able to break through the city in a short time. On the contrary, they would be firmly stuck under the city by the defenders, allowing the Yongye Army to have enough time to gather troops and carry out the attack.
Fight back.
"This is not a matter of belief or disbelief, but everything I said is true." Pope St. George said seriously.
"The highest level of deception is to make yourself believe that it is true." Faced with such a person who has practiced shamelessness to a certain level, Sean knows that there is no way to reason with him, so he simply pretends to be a rogue himself.
The face said, "I hope your Angel Legion can persist longer. I have issued a war mobilization order in the territory. The 300,000 troops on the northern defense line are moving south. I believe they will go down the river in less than two weeks.
When we arrive in Valesta, I will personally consult with Queen Enid on some issues."
"Do you really want to start an all-out war?" St. George couldn't help but trembled in his heart.
Sean said that their northern defense line has 300,000 troops, which definitely has a lot of water content.
But without the threat of the Undead Empire, there is still no problem in mobilizing a hundred thousand troops.
When he attacked the defense line led by the Yong Ye Army, he witnessed with his own eyes the strength of the regular army led by the Yong Ye Army.
Even facing the mythical angel army, they have the courage to go to war and the ability to slow down their progress.
This is still their ordinary city defense army composed of Byrons.
The army that defended the northern defense line for five years and prevented the Undead Empire from moving south was the true essence of the Eternal Night Army.
Regardless of the quality of the soldiers or the equipment, they are definitely the best among the Yongye Army leaders.
If they were to advance westward on a large scale, what would they do to stop them?
Although the Angel Legion is powerful, it has many limitations.
In a short period of time, they can only be used as special warfare units in special environments, and have no way to intervene in large-scale, long-term conventional wars.
Conventional warfare still relies on ordinary soldiers as the main force.
At this moment, a hint of regret appeared in Saint George's heart.
Previously, they only focused on showing their strength to the world and the leader of the Yongye Army, telling them that not only did they have the power to destroy the Undead Empire, they also had the power to attack the city defenses of the Yongye Army, which was completely incidental.
Firstly, I wanted to test the ability of the Yongye Army to lead the city defense force.
Secondly, they have been coveting the Yongye Army's advance in artillery and rifles for a long time, and want to take the opportunity to make a fortune from it.
They never thought that by doing this, they were stirring up a hornet's nest.
How could the leader of the Yongye Army give up and give up?
Sean doesn't like to use war to solve problems, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of war, especially when others bully him.
Not to mention Sophia Liya, her style has always been tough, and she will not give in even when the situation is unfavorable, let alone now.
Now, on the contrary, I have put myself in a difficult situation.
"Your Holiness, don't you think your question is too childish? From the moment you launch an attack on our city, a full-scale war has begun!" Sean couldn't help laughing.
"If our two sides fully carry out the war, it is destined to be a war without a winner. It will not only be the ordinary people who will suffer, but also our common enemies will be given more opportunities to take advantage of. At the level of your lord,
You should be aware of the real threats our plane faces. Don’t think that everything will be fine after you defeat those undead. They are just the first minions of the other party to reach in. Their behind-the-scenes manipulators are staring at us eagerly. If
We started fighting each other, which was exactly what the other party expected."
St. George shifted the reasons for convincing Sean to cease fighting, taking a macro perspective.
"Now you think about the safety of ordinary people? I want to ask you, do you care? You previously compared yourselves to the shepherds of the God of Truth, and your believers are the lambs. I think it is more than a simple metaphor.
But do you really think so? Of course shepherds love their lambs, because they are their food. If there is no food, how can they survive? I think the one on you is very good when it was slaughtered earlier.
It's easy!
As for the greater threat you mentioned, of course I know that we have fought against each other in the Night Capital before.
That wasn't the first fight, nor was it the last.
Otherwise, why do you think I slept for five years for no reason?
Uniting all forces to fight against them is indeed the right choice.
But it does not include those forces of unknown origin.
Hey, Lord St. George, are you sure that the one who is possessing you now is really the messenger of the God of Truth?
No.
Are you sure that the true God you believe in is the God of our world?
Does he really exist to protect our world?
Maybe it was all just a wonderful misunderstanding, and he came here for his own private purposes from beginning to end."
Sean also offered a series of rebuttals of his own.
St. George has always been in a calm state regarding Sean's previous accusations.
As Sean said, he is either shameless to the extreme and doesn't care about it at all.
Or you are in the highest state of self-deception, believing your own lies.
How can a person who thinks he has done the right thing feel sad because of criticism from others?
But facing Sean's last question, there was no way to remain calm. This was no longer an attack on Saint George and the Holy See, but a direct attack on the gods he believed in.
"Blasphemy, this is blasphemy. How can you make false claims about the true God? Take back your evil words, otherwise every believer in the Holy See will regard you as an enemy and destroy you as the ultimate goal." Pope St. George
He threatened sternly.
"What you say is like water being thrown out. How can you take it back?" Sean did not take the other party's threat seriously at all. "You said I made blasphemous words. What is the standard of judgment? Just because my words involve
When it comes to your true God, it becomes blasphemy? This is more tyrannical than the most stringent law!
What's more, I don't think there is anything wrong with what I just said.
How could a true god who was born in our plane disappear due to a plane tide?
The source of true God's power does not come from the natural environment, but from the beliefs of believers.
If this true god is, he is not from our plane.
Then everything will be explained.
If he were a god from another plane.
When there is a war between our plane and their plane, whose side do you think this true god will be on?"
"That's nonsense." St. George said angrily, "You dare to put your own personal speculation on the true God. This is a kind of blasphemy that cannot be washed away. You will pay the price for your blasphemy!"
"Can you change your threatening words to something new? Make me pay the price? How to pay? Could it be that your true god came in person to impose divine punishment?
You should ask him to come to me and see. If the God of Truth can really come, I will definitely apologize honestly and never make any false accusations again.
Or looking to his gods to send angels?
There are thirty-eight streaks of angel blood on my hands.
If you want to make me pay the price, you can't just rely on these third-rate people. You must mobilize something more powerful.
Do you have this ability?"
Sean made another burst of cynicism, which made St. George feel angry, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Angels who are extremely powerful compared to ordinary people are completely incompetent in front of Sean. If you are not careful, you will be chopped into pieces by him like vegetables.
For a while, Saint George couldn't think of a better way to threaten, and some people jumped over the wall and said: "I don't believe you hide in a turtle shell all your life. Sooner or later you will come out. There are no people around you without you."
So powerful."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, St. George regretted it. He felt like he had stung another hornet's nest.
As expected.
The energy in Sean's body surged crazily, and his eyes erupted with several meters of cold golden light, "You are threatening me with my family, very good, very good, very good."
This time Sean did not refute, but said three times in a row that were very good.
However, this would be more of a deterrent than his actual verbal threats.
Sean originally had more or less intention to cease the war, but now he is afraid that it has disappeared, and he only wants to kill himself.
If you say it out loud, it will really be a waste of water.
Sean had not considered this issue before, but now he had to treat it carefully.
Once St. George takes action unscrupulously, not only will the people around him be in danger, but even the senior leaders of the Yongye Army will be in danger of being assassinated.
Similarly, the Holy See of Saint Ether is also facing such threats.
Sean can not only assassinate the top leaders of the Holy See, but can even destroy any city except the Holy Mountain by himself.
If you are not careful, even the holy mountain may be bulldozed by Sean.
This problem is much more serious than the bunch of problems they talked about before.
The first truce talks between the two ended so unhappy.
