Within the Crimson Light Empire, inside the Vulcan Cathedral.
"Given the ashes of all things, the master of the flames of heaven and earth, the supreme god, your messenger is here to listen to the teachings, please send down the divine edict..." Wearing a red base, there are wisps of golden lines intertwined to form a flame robe.
The old man stood in front of a hundred-meter-tall red statue, praying devoutly.
Pray to the God he believes in, listen to God’s will, and ask for God’s will.
Because...the missionary priests, nine divine knights and one hundred divine warriors sent to Wu'an County were all wiped out.
This is no small matter. Although since the establishment of the sect, in order to spread the glory of our god all over the earth, the sect has fought everywhere and suffered a lot of casualties, but that was before. In the past year, it has become stable and there will be almost no major losses.
.
Now, a divine priest, nine divine knights and one hundred divine warriors sent out to preach have all died in battle. This is the biggest loss in this year. Even since the establishment of the religion, this loss is not small.
The Vulcan Cult cannot remain indifferent.
Normally, even if a Divine Cult warrior is killed, the Divine Cult will send someone to "retaliate", let alone the loss is so heavy now.
It was such a heavy loss that the Pope of the Vulcan Sect didn't know what was going on and could only ask for God's will.
"Heretics should be reduced to ashes in the fire..." A low voice containing endless divine power suddenly sounded, resounding in the cathedral, seeming to contain endless anger, the anger that burns everything, and turns everything into ashes.
anger.
After receiving God's reply, the Pope's expression changed and he immediately bowed: "I will obey the will of my God."
After getting up, the Pope turned around and walked out of the cathedral, immediately summoning all the top leaders of the Vulcan Cult.
The divine religion of the Chiguang Empire has clear power positions. The top one is the Pope, who is the leader of a sect and the agent, spokesperson and messenger of God in the world. Below the Pope is the Great God Sacrifice, followed by the Divine Sacrifice.
The equal status of the divine priests is the divine knights, and the last is the divine warriors.
The divine warriors are at the Ningjia level, equivalent to the martial arts masters of the Dayun Dynasty, while the divine knights are at the Feitian level, equivalent to the martial arts saints of the Dayun Dynasty.
But above the Divine Knights, there is a higher knight level, which is the Divine Grace Knight.
The Divine Grace Knight is a powerful man who has surpassed the Feitian level and can already rival the Yuan Shen realm of the dynasty.
"Your Majesty." A stream of red light flew across the sky, flew far away in an instant, landed in an instant, and appeared. It was a burly body wearing red gilt armor. There seemed to be a touch of red on the edge of the red gilt armor.
The halo filled the air with an astonishing blazing power, making people afraid to approach it.
"Knight of Tiger's Grace." The Pope responded with a smile on his face.
The Divine Grace Knight is a holy-level warrior and a strong man above the Feitian level. He is a person who is closer to God and can be promoted only by receiving God's favor.
Even though he is the Pope, the one with the highest status in the sect, the messenger of God, and the spokesperson of God in the world, he must still give the Knight of Divine Grace corresponding respect because of his strength.
Therefore, the status of the Divine Grace Knight in the sect is almost half a level lower than that of the Pope. Under normal circumstances, it is higher than the Great God Sacrifice. In abnormal situations, the Great God Sacrifice itself is also a sacred level. "Tiger Divine Grace Knight, this time
, the missionary priests of our religion, nine divine knights, and one hundred divine warriors went east to preach in the Wu'an County of the Dynasty, but they were brutally killed by heretics. Our God issued a decree, and the heretics should be reduced to ashes in the fire..." The pope's words were concise and concise.
He told what happened.
"Your Majesty, the majesty of God is inviolable. All heretics should be judged and reduced to ashes in the fire." The Tiger Divine Grace Knight said righteously, his voice full of anger and astonishing majesty: "I am willing to throw down
The army will march eastward, eradicate heretics, and spread the glory of our God throughout the east."
"Tiger Divine Grace Knight, I will send ten divine priests, twenty divine knights and a thousand divine warriors to accompany you on your expedition." The Pope also said with a solemn expression.
The divine priests of the sect are also at the Feitian level. Of course, the divine priests are different from warriors in that they are not good at close combat. They are better at performing divine spells and using their own power to communicate with the power of the gods, thereby performing divine spells.
Ten divine sacrifices are equal to ten martial saints, twenty divine knights are equal to twenty martial saints, one thousand divine warriors are equal to one thousand martial arts masters, and one divine grace knight of martial arts myth level is also included.
This is undoubtedly a powerful force.
It can be said that this is comparable to any overlord-level force in the dynasty, and even exceeds the number of martial arts masters by a lot.
And this is undoubtedly a considerable part of the power of the Vulcan Cult.
"Your majesty, don't worry, I will eradicate the heresy and spread the glory of my god throughout the eastern land." The Tiger Divine Grace Knight said solemnly, and the divine power on his body became more and more powerful.
"I will look forward to your triumph." The Pope showed a smile.
Eastern Expedition!
The Tiger Divine Grace Knight immediately summoned all Dong Zhen's personnel and gathered outside the Vulcan Cult.
Ten divine priests, twenty divine knights, and a thousand divine warriors, when they lined up neatly and stood outside the church, their aura of unity was astonishing, they were extremely capable, and they were tyrannical after having experienced hundreds of battles.
A ray of red light fell from the sky and landed in front of a group of religious personnel, exuding an astonishing power.
It is Tiger, one of the two great grace knights of the Vulcan Cult.
"Everyone listens to the order and goes out with me to eradicate the heresy and spread the glory of my god throughout the eastern land." The Tiger Divine Grace Knight did not give a departure speech because there was no need for it.
Following the order from Divine Grace Knight Tiger, ten divine priests, twenty divine knights and a thousand divine warriors immediately took action and marched forward in unison. Under the shining of the scorching sun, the magic on their bodies
The armor shone with bursts of dazzling light like fire, shining in all directions, heading towards Wu'an County City like a blazing torrent of steel.
Momentum... moving forward inexorably, as if with a violent will like fire, wanting to destroy everything in front of it.
Eastern Expedition!
…
The 'neighbor' to the Vulcan Sect is the Thunder God Sect, which does not believe in the God of Fire, but the God of Thunder. Naturally, the Thunder God Sect is also aware of all the trends of the Vulcan Sect.
There have been many conflicts between believers.
Although, after this year, it has gradually become stable and balanced, with few conflicts, we still pay close attention to each other's movements.
The Vulcan Sect had previously sent missionaries to Wu'an County, and the Thunder God Sect also knew about it and did not send anyone out immediately, choosing instead to wait and see.
Now, they also knew that the Vulcan Cult's missionary mission had failed, and they took further action-conquest.
The construction style of the church of the Thunder God Cult is slightly different from that of the Vulcan Cult. The church of the Vulcan Cult is red, as if filled with firelight, and there are wisps of flame breath, while the church of the Thunder God Cult is purple and still free.
With wisps of electric light.
The electric light shines and seems to contain astonishing aura fluctuations.
In the church, the Pope of the Thunder God Sect was wearing a purple electric pattern robe, looking very gorgeous.
"Your Majesty, if the Vulcan Sect succeeds in the Eastern Expedition, it will definitely gain more followers, which will be very detrimental to us." The Great God Priest Lurus stood aside and said solemnly, with worry in his tone.
"The East... has never been a weak place. There are many strong people there." The Pope of the Thunder God Sect seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be answering the words of the great god Lulus: "In ancient times, there was a divine court in the East.
, that is a powerful institution that can be compared with our gods. Even now, many martial arts myths in the East have awakened from their slumber and once again dominated the earth."
"Great God Sacrifice, do you know? In ancient times, our Gods' Mountains also sprinkled the glory of gods to the eastern land, but with the presence of the Divine Court, the Gods' Mountains failed to do so." The Pope of the Thunder God Sect said unhurriedly: "
Now, the Divine Court in the East does not exist, and our Mountains of Gods have not yet reappeared. Now is not the time for the Eastern Expedition. The Vulcan Sect's Eastern Expedition is doomed to fail."
"Is the Vulcan Sect going to be completely wiped out again this time?" Great God Priest Lurus couldn't help but asked in surprise.
"Even if you win at the beginning, you will be defeated in the end. It's hard to say whether the whole army will be annihilated." The Pope of the Thunder God Sect said with a smile.
If it weren't for all the scruples, the Thunder God Sect would have taken the lead in sending people to the east wherever it was the Vulcan Sect's turn.
However, there are many powerful people in the land of the East. In fact, according to the records he has read, the Mountains of Gods did indeed attack the land of the East to develop believers, but ultimately failed. The specific process is unclear, but
Mountain of the Gods has indeed failed.
This shows that the strong men in the Eastern Land are strong enough to withstand or even repel the mountains of gods. This is something he is very worried about, very worried about. Although he is coveted by the vast land and rich resources in the Eastern Land, he is also coveted by the Eastern Land, a land lacking in faith.
, but did not take action.
It's not the time yet.
The Thunder God Cult alone is not enough to do this.
"Idiot!" After thinking about the Pope of the Thunder God Cult, he couldn't help but think of the Pope of the Vulcan Cult, and felt contempt for his approach of letting the Knights of Divine Grace lead the Eastern expedition.
Idiots who couldn't see the situation clearly sent priests to the East to preach, which was not the right thing to do from the beginning. What's more, they did it in a big way so that everyone knew about it, instead of doing it secretly.
If he were to do it, he would definitely preach in a small area at the beginning, gradually develop a group of believers, and then expand slowly. It would be best to do everything in secret, without arousing any suspicion, and without any contact with him.
No matter what kind of conflict occurs between others, it will not be until it reaches a certain scale and forms a general trend, and then it will be swept away by the general trend and cooperate with the power of the divine religion to hope to gain a foothold and further expand.
Now, just wait, wait for the Vulcan Sect's Eastern Expedition to fail, and then it will be time for the Thunder Sect to annex the Vulcan Sect.
