Chapter 555 Smooth (Second Update Asks for a Monthly Pass)
Taking the scroll of "Night Shuttle", Lucian wanted to keep smiling, but found that he couldn't laugh: "Teacher, the situation will not be so bad, even if Salde betrays his faith, the pope appears, and desperately explodes the divine descent technique, at most they can directly kill a legendary peak, they also have to guard against the Northern Church and the Dark Council.
"If the situation takes a turn for the worse, you have to count the five Holy Spirit Priests including Sald, the Kingdom of Holm, the Kingdom of Colette, the Kingdom of Brianna, the Principality of Calais, and the seven epic knights of the Coastal Corridor of the Northlands, that is nearly thirty legends, plus the Pope of the God-like Realm, it is difficult to estimate how many legendary magicians who can escape head-on." Fernando prefers to prepare for the worst from the start.
Then he looked at Lucian with a smile in his bright red eyes: "Don't think of the Pope as too weak, he doesn't have a god-descending technique, he is also one of the gods, except for Douglas, Dracula, and Brook, who have been at the peak of legends for many years, they can fight him head-on for a period of time, and other legendary powerhouses may not be able to take his blow."
Speaking of this, Fernando, who was either obscene or serious and irritable, sighed rarely: "And the power of the divine descent technique is too terrifying, the strong person who has locked the peak of the legend is an instant kill, whether you are alone or several people gathered together. If Douglas wants to make the 'Eternal Sun' reach a similar level, he must at least be promoted to a god-like level, so the council took the risk of cooperating with Sald before the Pope's descent was restored."
"Otherwise, in ten years, who will consume the god-descending technique? I think that at that time, neither I, Hathaway, nor Douglas, nor Brooke have sacrificed themselves to fulfill everyone's noble character, and if they join forces, they will die together. Also, most importantly, for the seven epic knights, having a pope with or without divine descent strongly influences their final decision."
"Once they completely fall to us, it is the Pope's turn to weigh the pros and cons, after all, the maximum power that the Southern Church can draw is only equal to ours, and no longer has an overwhelming advantage.
Lucian nodded, understanding the council's strategy, that is, to use this plan to create a favorable situation and let the seven epic knights turn against him.
"Natasha, we have already planned some things, plus Sald's stimulation, there should be a lot of certainty that the nobles will completely fall against us, and the overall noble tendencies will definitely affect the decision of the Epic Knight, teacher, why don't we ...... like this" Lucian made a small suggestion, which was also a suggestion prepared early in the morning.
Fernando nodded lightly with a solemn expression: "No matter what the effect is, as long as you can increase the weight. Five of the seven Epic Knights have been secretly co-opted by us, and before the situation is favorable, even if they choose to wait and see first, they should not refuse to listen, I will communicate with them."
The two of them further deduced the actions, arrangements, and corresponding countermeasures that Salde would have for different purposes.
"If Sald's purpose is really like this, I will inform you as soon as possible, hey, I hope your response can have a good effect, and you are near Nexer Palace, you must try to help Natasha master the control of Nexer Palace's divine magic defense array in the entire city, this is a more critical step in preventing changes, Maurice and other magician members of the Holm royal family will cooperate with you." The storm lord ordered, arranging for Lucian to go there not only to facilitate his escape, but also because of his special relationship with Natasha, which allowed Natasha to cooperate with confidence.
Although the overall divine defense of Rentat City is not as good as the Cathedral of Radiance and the Palace of Nexer, it is also stronger than Alto, and after opening, the controller can gain a lot of advantages, and its control is divided into two relatively independent parts, one in the Cathedral of Radiance, and the other in the Palace of Nexer, the former only waits for Sald to withdraw from the church, the council can take over control, and the latter depends on Natasha.
Lucian didn't say anything more, nodded solemnly in agreement, and then asked slightly curiously: "Teacher, why don't we find other forces to cooperate with us."
"This kind of plan must be kept strictly confidential, if we cooperate with the Northern Church and the Dark Council, it is very likely that the news will be leaked in advance and detected by the church, and they will not have many options, either wait for us to lose both sides and then take the winner take, or take the opportunity to attack the empty interior of the church, it is impossible to rashly join the battlefield, what we need to seize is this time difference, and use the general trend to force the church not to dare to go to war." Fernando explained slightly, "As for other allies, those who are willing to come will definitely come after discovering the changes, and those who are unwilling to come will not come if they seek cooperation in advance."
Even within the Magic Council, only a few highly authorized magicians such as the members of the Supreme Council and Lucian knew the details, and the knowledge of such a thing was limited to a few members of the Affairs Committee.
…………
The fourteenth day of the fierce fire month, noon.
On the thirty-fifth floor of the Alinge Magic Tower, there were continuous sounds:
"Confirm that Pope Benedict II preached in the holy city of Reims today and did not leave."
"Confirm that the saints Melmos, Anastasia, Mary and others were near the Pope and did not leave."
"Confirm that the ascetic leader Saint Otin is in the New Xeno space and has not left."
"Confirm that the leader of the ascetics, Valenhill, entered the confession room of the holy city of Reims to pray and did not leave."
"It is confirmed that Bahá'u'u'lláh the Judge was at the headquarters of the Tribunal and did not leave."
"Confirm that the glory of God Beria is in the northern fortress and has not left."
……
Confirmed information came one by one, allowing the Supreme Council and Lucian and other magicians who participated in the operation to control the situation.
"I can't confirm the whereabouts of the giant of the court, St. Anthony the Night's Watch, Brentus the Agent, and the 'Flame of the Origin' ranked first by the Night's Watch."
"Unable to confirm......
This kind of information was not only about the Southern Church, but also about the Northern Church and the many strong people in the Dark Mountains, and the personnel that the Magic Council had placed for many years came in handy at this moment.
After confirming the situation, Douglas got up from his seat, walked to the front of the conference room of the Supreme Council of Council, and announced solemnly and solemnly:
"The action begins, everyone be careful of your own safety."
"The mystery is above!" Lucian and the others saluted with their right hands on their foreheads.
………
The capital of the Duchy of Calais, Cooks.
Erica with short flaxen hair walked out of the black magic tower like an astrological platform, with a strong sense of historical vicissitudes.
She counted the time and slowly walked towards the Cathedral of Cooks with several archmages and high-ranking magicians, when two dragon-scaled horses galloped past beside her, deliberately calling out loudly: "Your Excellency Usenar requests an emergency noble meeting."
Usenar is the epic knight of the Duchy of Calais, the "Twilight Song".
Erica understood that this was part of the plan, and Yusenar would not make any more moves until the situation changed completely.
A few minutes later, Erica and the others, who looked slow, actually arrived outside the Cooks Cathedral on the other side of the city, where a middle-aged clergyman wearing a white floppy hat was watching her peacefully.
"Terrance, are you ready to hand over?" Erica asked Cardinal of Calais "Angel of Wisdom" Terence.
Terrance replied with a smile: "The cardinals have been sent by me to inspect the counties, and there are only some bishops and priests in it, and the magic circle has been closed."
Erica did not enter rashly, but gestured with her eyes to a summoning archmage next to her, asking him to summon two high-level demons to enter, controlling the core of the divine magic array and the teleportation array respectively.
When there were no problems, several archmages and magicians entered one after another, taking control of different areas, while Erica confronted Terrance in the square, waiting for Rentat's progress.
…………
The capital of the Kingdom of Buryana, Salivar.
Wearing a white hair cover and a long black double-breasted dress, Brooke, a half-old gentleman in his pocket with his left hand in his pocket and a short black cane in his right hand, together with the petite silver-haired lady Chelsea Holt, climbed the steps outside the Bellistan Cathedral and walked directly inside, without any other bells and whistles.
He was confident enough that even if the divine magic circle was all opened, he could kill the "Light of Heaven" Beaver inside.
As he was about to step into the church gate, he looked back at the palace where King Briana was and whispered, "I hope Bedrenka and Basor don't make irrational decisions."
"Hammer of the Void" Bedrenka and "Calamity Knight" Bashor are the epic knights of the Kingdom of Buryana.
"They will wait until the situation is almost clear." Silver Moon Scholar Holt, who has been here for a long time, smiled.
Brooke nodded, didn't say much, walked slowly into the church, walked to the third row of seats in front of the cross and sat down, then lowered his head in contemplation, waiting for the time to come, like the most devout believer, the cardinal who preached above was completely unaware that the eighth ranked terrifying demon in the purification sequence was in front of him.
…………
Herculi in the Northland Coastal Corridor and Vicente in the Kingdom of Colette were in a similar situation to Erica, successfully taking over the cathedral and controlling the teleportation point, and the epic knights of these countries and regions all requested an emergency meeting of nobles like Usenar.
Lentat, outside the Glorious Cathedral.
Fernando, who was temporarily added to the "Absolute Defense" Atuman as a legendary magician, was waiting for Sald to come out with more than a dozen archmages and high-level magicians.
Without making them wait long, Sald, who was like an ordinary old man, left the Cathedral of Radiance with ease and integrity.
