Squealer turned his head to look, but Nicky was unmoved: "It has begun. Someone ate the food handed out by the cult in order to make himself feel at ease. Now it's about time to change."
Squealer silently said: "May Lancelot bring equal destruction to these evil creatures."
"Isn't it common to pray to Lancelot to pray for salvation? 'Redemption of them' or something like that."
Facing the ridicule of his colleagues, Squealer whispered: "Destruction is the greatest salvation."
**
Before the ground assault, the Saviors first carried out a fire glue bombardment on the Legion's headquarters in Isonzo.
The Senj Fortress, where the headquarters is located, is a defensive fortification on the edge of the capital and the core of the entire capital's defense.
The Knights' spaceships were the first to appear in the air and began to drop flaming glue.
The king watched the Knights setting fire to the fortress and muttered, "Where are the airships from Catalonia? Is it really a good idea to give up air superiority like this?"
Lily: "I find it strange too... Is it because I'm here?"
Elizabeth: “Me too!”
Both of these have heavy anti-aircraft firepower and can easily destroy airships.
So Xiaobai is now the strongest anti-air unit of the entire Savior Army, the airship destroyer. Lily still has a spell slot limit, and Elizabeth's necklace provides three petrification rays and three hellfires a day, which guarantees six airships.
As a warlock herself, and a beautiful one at that, she has plenty of scorching rays and fireballs every day, a veritable heavy artillery.
As a result, there is not a single flying ship over the entire capital of Yisongzuo.
As a country whose national strength has risen rapidly recently thanks to reform, Catalonia attaches great importance to the construction of its air force. In theory, it should have quite a few spacecraft.
should.
The talking stone in Wang's arms suddenly rang.
"It's me." Wang pressed the magic pattern on the stone and said in a deep voice.
Nini's voice came from inside: "Look at the ground, there are monsters on the street!"
Wang frowned, "What?"
He immediately looked towards the ground, but Xiaobai was flying at a very high altitude and could not see what was happening on the street below.
At least not visible to human eyes.
Wang could only pat Xiaobai's neck and said, "Descend, fly close to the roof."
Xiaobai made a "click" sound, dived toward the ground, pulled up at the height of the roof, and ran fast along the roof.
Lily immediately cast a spell: "Defense against arrows!"
It is reliable to have a partner who can cast protective spells.
However, there was no "anti-aircraft firepower" on the ground, and not a single arrow flew towards Xiaobai as he passed by.
Because even the soldiers from Catalonia were madly shooting at the monsters that suddenly appeared.
The king saw a monster rushing into the Catalan shield formation, and although it was immediately pierced by a large number of spears, it continued to wriggle and devour the people it knocked down.
Wang: "The soldiers from Catalonia have never seen such a monster."
At this time, the mage in the army used strong acid arrows, and the monster let out a painful cry when it was hit.
Then the priest accompanying the army tore open the fireball scroll.
The king noticed that next to each centurion's flag there were people dressed as priests and mages, as well as clerks responsible for tearing scrolls, and alchemists carrying various potions.
It can be seen that the Catalan army is indeed well-equipped, and various protective magic scrolls and fireball scrolls are allocated to the hundred-man team.
Such an elite force was just abandoned in this city?
As the king was thinking this, he saw a Catalan priest trying to heal a wounded soldier with healing magic.
Soon the wounded soldier's wounds twisted and turned into a biting monster.
The wounded soldiers shouted in fear.
The centurion stepped forward, chopped the monster off with one blow, and yelled something.
The clerk beside him immediately threw a pile of scrolls on the ground.
It looks like the Centurion has issued an order prohibiting the use of healing magic.
Wang: "Your judgment is correct. The Catalan army is indeed elite."
Then he saw someone brought a water bag and started to wash the wounds of the wounded soldiers with water - no, judging from the wounded soldiers' reactions, it was strong liquor.
At this time, Xiaobai just flew over a row of houses, and Wang's vision was blocked.
Wang: "Go back quickly! I think we can fight for that Catalan troop!"
Xiaobai immediately circled to the left, and the tip of its wings swept over the house, pushing a pile of tiles off the eaves.
When the king looked at the centurion again, he found that he was also looking at him.
The centurion gave the order, and the Catalan flag was replaced by another.
The king understood immediately: "These legions are the Catalan resistance! They were not loyal in the first place, and were sent here to prevent them from seizing power in the country!"
He took out the talking stone: "Nini! Nini!"
The sound stone answered: "I'm here."
Wang: "Nini! Stop the bombing! The army stationed here is a treacherous unit, the Catalan resistance! They deliberately misled us to let us flood the Dragon King Temple. The enemy's real purpose is probably to turn the entire Yisongzuo into a monster and send these two armies here!"
Nini didn't answer, but her voice could be heard through the sound stone: "Stop the bombing! There may be friendly forces down there!"
Wang: "Turn to the Catalan Anglican church."
Nini: "Eh? There should be civilians there. Didn't we say that in order to ensure our greatness and justice, we should first kill the Catalan troops and then proceed slowly?"
Wang: "Do you think there are still civilians there now?"
Chapter 386: Look, it’s a double update, a double update after three days
Wang immediately asked Xiaobai to turn around and fly towards the church.
The location of the Catalan Anglican church had been confirmed in advance, and Rosalie had cross-checked and cross-confirmed with information from different sources that the church was indeed there.
Xiaobai flew two blocks and arrived at the Pilgrimage Avenue in front of the church.
Lily frowned: "What the hell is this!"
Elizabeth also covered her mouth, but perhaps because she had seen even more outrageous things in the Fetal Movement Hall, she just covered her mouth and did not spit it out.
The entire street was filled with wriggling white masses. They looked disgusting and made people feel physically uncomfortable, but they were not scary.
If these not-so-scary things weren't devouring living people, the people below wouldn't have screamed so miserably.
Elizabeth: "I can petrify three..."
He couldn't go on. What was the point of petrifying three of the monsters? In fact, most point-to-point magic was completely useless in this situation.
Lily: "In a plane dominated by rationality, in this situation, we should develop biological viruses to fight poison with poison. Or we can use red furnace bombs."
Wang: "The weapons we have can only create earthquakes, but we can't do anything with these things. If they fall into the cracks after the earthquake, it may be even more difficult to find and destroy them."
Lily: "Yeah."
Elizabeth: "But if there is an earthquake, many of these living people will become dead, which will cause huge casualties. Last time we had the undead army to back us up, but this time we don't."
Wang was about to speak when he felt his holy emblem heating up.
An idea that should have flashed through his mind suddenly appeared in his mind and then took up residence in his mind.
King: "I am now a paladin of Typhon."
The two girls didn't know what he meant by saying this.
Even Xiaobai made a "ga" sound and turned to look at his back.
Wang: "Typhon's holy light is not positive energy damage, but radiant damage. We have confirmed that radiant damage will destroy these things. Even the spores and microorganisms in the air will be destroyed."
Lily: "What are you talking about? Doesn't the Holy Light only last for a short period of time? We have studied it. Even if the gods continue to provide Holy Light, you as a mortal cannot bear it.
“And this kind of thing has happened in other worlds before. In order to defeat evil, the priest took on the unlimited energy supply from the gods, and ended up turning into a mass of flesh that could only radiate indiscriminate healing energy.
"The power of gods is beyond the level of mortals. There are many papers in the tower that prove this point."
Wang: "But those papers also cannot explain why sometimes mortals can receive divine power far beyond our estimation."
"That's a special case!" Lily said loudly, "Just like experiments allow for small probability events, there will always be special cases. We study statistics to eliminate small probability events through mathematical methods. Your idea is too irrational, and it's not like you!"
At this time, Elizabeth suddenly spoke up: "But he is a paladin of Typhon. Paladins are never rational."
Lily retorted, "That's him! You know how wooden he is, don't you? How can he be fanatical? We need to quantify whether he understands or not!"
Wang: "But the power of the Holy Knights will not lie. Lily, as a scientist, the necessary quality is to acknowledge the facts you see at present and not be influenced by dogmatism."
As the king spoke, he pulled out the Pathfinder.
Because there were two girls sitting in front of him, he was forced to throw away the scabbard of the Pathfinder when he pulled out the Pathfinder - otherwise he would not be able to pull it out.
After pulling it out, he couldn't even hold the sword with both hands because the two people were right in front of him and Elizabeth was even against his stomach.
So the king could only rely on the brute force of the ogre power glove to hold the Pathfinder in one hand.
Holy light appeared on the sword.
Wang: "Xiaobai, go back and fly towards the church from the starting point of this pilgrimage road!"
Xiaobai circled right again.
Wang: "Lily, do you remember? The book in the tower said that becoming a paladin is because of a calling, and paladins see life as a series of trials, tests from the gods they believe in. Only those who constantly overcome the tests can exist as paladins and realize their value."
Lily: "Yes, the author of this paper is still my senior brother."
King: "He is wrong. The value of a paladin lies in the test itself. This situation is a test for me."
Lily: “But…”
Wang: "No buts. In the materialistic world, it is a low probability event to be able to withstand the continuous grace of the true God. But in the idealistic world, fanatical beliefs can turn decay into magic. Do you understand?
"We have never been able to grasp the essence of divine arts in the past, mainly because we look at everything from a materialistic point of view. Magic should be closer to materialism within the idealistic side, and the boundary is relatively vague, so we have successfully simplified magic by learning from the materialistic side.
"But divine arts are different. The source of divine arts is unreasonable gods. Divine arts are completely idealistic forces, so we have never been able to use divine arts like magic.
