Chapter 434 Duel Wall

Chapter 434 Duel Wall
The night is thick as ink.

With the fall of the Cathedral of the Atonement, every breath of air around it was filled with the smell of danger, and the shadow of death was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, spreading silently into the distance in the dark night.

The capital of the Theocracy is surrounded by towering mountains. Looking down from the sky, the city is like a basin. In fact, the terrain was one of the main reference factors for the selection of the site of the First Research Institute, which involves mysterious and extraordinary unknown research. Once the situation changes suddenly, the cost of self-destruction will be greatly reduced.

At this moment, above the mountains, there are more than twenty golden creatures who are responsible for long-term stationing in the capital and those who have received emergency conscription notices and have rushed from the surrounding main cities.

At the top of the highest Atonement Mountain, a middle-aged man in a golden robe had a stern face, and his bony hands never left the hilt of the sword at his waist. As a specially appointed honorary vice-pope and plague sinner, his combat power almost reached the peak of ordinary gold.

“Francis, I need a response from the Pope!”

A cardinal had a tense face and his voice was trembling without him even noticing. He and the Dark Sin Warlock were in charge of guarding the cathedral, but when faced with the invasion, before he could react, his colleagues had already died at the hands of the demon.

To kill a golden warrior so instantly was completely unimaginable to the cardinal. If the other party had not been careless at the time, he would definitely have made the same mistake again.

"Amber Ashes, if the conditions are met, his speed, defense, and offense are all better than the strongest frontline." The deputy pope stroked the hilt of his knife and replied, "The pope's order is to surround him and wait for him and the other strongest ones to come."

The cardinal relaxed a little after hearing this. He turned his head and looked around the mountains. There were hundreds of thousands of Silver-level Redemption Knights everywhere. The empire had fifty main cities, each with 30,000 Iron Burning Legion soldiers stationed there. Compared with conventional military forces, the Church was not weaker at all.

The next moment, in the direction of the Cathedral of the Atonement.

A thick pillar of light shot up into the sky, piercing through the gloomy and dark clouds. Then, countless rays of light were released from the top and fell towards the sky. From a distance, it looked like a prison.

"What is that!?" the cardinal became nervous.

The Vice-Pope silently drew his sword.

"It won't be a fireworks display after all, so prepare to fight."

……

Cathedral of the Atonement.

There were broken walls and chaos.

The sound of the bell tower lingered in the distance, and the curfew bell at nine o'clock in the evening quickly swept out.

Jiang He walked out from underground, his body covered with scary rugged black armor, wisps of black mist lingering around him, the energy-based armor plates flashing with metallic luster, the silver spear in his hand humming continuously, the dark red lines trembling constantly. After being promoted to epic, the dragon soul gradually became stronger, as if it was celebrating its new life.

The reminder sound in my ears disappeared.

Jiang He sat by the fountain in front of the church and drank alone. All his men had entered the portable imperial city, so he could act at will without any scruples. As for the punishment for the main task, it actually didn't mean much. If he couldn't kill all the sinners, his fate would be death, and there was no doubt about this result.

Suddenly, the mountains in the distance lit up.

This is not an illusion, the surging sinful energy has almost materialized.

"Law Spell: Judgment!" Vice-Pope Francis swung his sword forward.

The cardinal was like an orchestra conductor, his hands flipping in the air with extraordinary dexterity, and hundreds of thousands of silver sinners cast spells together.

Since they do not have a high level of joint casting ability, the level of their spells is only at the Immortal Level. However, relying on the strong foundation of the Church, the specific number of spells is staggering, as many as forty-two.

In an instant, the mountains turned into giant turrets.

Forty-two beams of judgment light as thick as city gates attacked, and the aftermath alone destroyed all the buildings along the way.

boom!
The area within a radius of ten thousand meters around the Cathedral of the Atonement was destroyed, and the overflowing light flowed in the shadows. The once glorious and solemn building completely disappeared in this era.

In the center of the huge pit, Jiang He's face was as usual. The Overlord Armor on his body shattered into pieces, and then reappeared. The Undying Spell Immunity of the Martial Saint Body exempted him from most of the damage, but it turned out that this was not a concept like absolute defense. When facing the spell of lust before, because its nature was domination, the immunity effect was reduced to a pitiful level.

call!
Jiang He activated the Eternal Night Hunter and disappeared from the spot.

The maximum limit of 500-meter flash was activated five times in a row, and with the space reduction of the special effect Night Hunt, a total of energy points were consumed.

In the blink of an eye.

Jiang He came to the highest mountain of atonement.

The Silver Knights had not yet sensed the presence of a human figure, but the offensive and murderous intent had already enveloped the entire mountain.

Extreme speed means overwhelming advantage.

The cardinal could only barely see a flash of silver light magnifying before his eyes, but he had no time to control his mind and body. The indescribable sharpness instantly overwhelmed his defense, and the edge cut through his skin, flesh, and bones, and finally penetrated into his soul, destroying everything.

Bang!
The cardinal exploded into a firework.

Although they were dozens of miles apart, the enemy managed to kill instantly with one strike, and the twenty or so golden statues watching the battlefield all changed color.

"Go to hell!"

The deputy pope who was close at hand roared, and slashed out with the Heart Image Armor·Epidemic Sword in his hand. The dark green immortal plague poison on the three-foot cold blade was as thick as liquid. The domain was attached to the surface of the long sword in a thin posture, and the domain skill·Slim Blade gave the greatest blessing to the plague poison.

clang!
The silver spear arrived first, and the dark green sword shattered almost before the collision. The tip of the spear hit the forehead of the deputy pope without hesitation. Four epic attack effects merged into one, taking his life in an instant.

Click!

The realm is shattered.

The Cardinal and the Archdeacon returned from death one after another, but what awaited them was only the cold and desperate light of gunfire, and the severe overflow of damage destroyed them again.

Jiang He waved his hand casually, and blood flew off the blade.

It was not until this moment that the Golden Sinners truly realized that their main force had fallen.

Three saints chose to flee, while the others rushed forward and expanded their domains. During the fusion confrontation phase, the overall scale and quality of many domains increased sharply. From a distance, it looked like a mountain crashing down.

"Go together!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Defend the capital!" Jiang He stretched out his hand, and with an extraordinary burst of energy, a huge black sun rose up, swallowing up all the light around it. The faint light showed a solemn outline at the edge. The air began to fluctuate violently, forming a black vortex that siphoned the sky and the earth. In the capital of the church, the high-rise buildings of the old era collapsed and flew into the sky.

A tsunami of black light swept out and hit the joint area of ​​the golds head-on. Countless arcs of pure energy caused them to flash continuously among the mountains.

Boom!

In just a moment, the united realm collapsed.

With the strength of one person destroying more than twenty domains, the fighting spirit of the golden creatures immediately collapsed. Some of them turned around and left, wishing to overtake the three saints who retreated first, but the black light spread too quickly and swallowed up everyone in the blink of an eye.

More than twenty gold statues turned into nutrients, and the range of Jiang He's Black Sun Domain increased by two hundred meters. The level of his extraordinary burst reached the epic LV5. After the two abilities surpassed the Golden Age, the amount of energy required for improvement was extremely huge. In theory, only heroes could bring about significant enhancements.

Suddenly, a gray rainstorm began to fall from the sky.

Jiang He stood on the top of the Mountain of Atonement and saw an old man in a long robe on the opposite mountain top. He was holding a scepter and had a calm look in his eyes. The Pope had left the empire long before the Battle of the Holy City ended.

On the other side, Marquis Tommen, with bloodshot eyes, held a black gun in his hand. The extraction tower barely satisfied his greedy needs, but it was just a temporary solution.

"It was you who made the noise." Marquis Tommen looked up at the horizon, "This world is not a birdcage in your hands."

"To end the era of criminal arts is also your and Raman's ideal." Jiang He said casually, "It's just that the means are a bit rough."

Marquis Tommen sneered, "To put an end to the Abyss Ghosts does not mean to destroy the entire era. We are fundamentally different from lunatics like you."

Behind Marquis Tommen, the face of the greedy Abyss Ghost opened its eyes. When this world-destroying Abyss Ghost was fully revived in the body, the corruption of the Abyss Sin Warlock was irreversible. The future could still be handed over to Ramanuf, but an unforgivable villain like Amber must be killed at all costs.

Whoosh!
Lord Tommen disappeared.

The black gun tip enlarged in front of his eyes. Jiang He calmly turned his head to avoid it, then fired a shot with his backhand.

Marquis Tommen activated space teleportation again, and continuously. Black spear beams burst out repeatedly at the top of Mount Atonement. Because they were too dense and frequent, it looked like a black curtain formed, covering the enemy.

Jiang He responded calmly under the attack. His extreme speed and the Dragon Spear's Swift Kill special effect gave him a higher attack density. The silver arc gradually overwhelmed the black spear light.

Boom!

Lord Tommen retreated with fear in his eyes and disappeared.

The moment the two spears separated, the top of the Mountain of Atonement suddenly collapsed, and countless cracks spread downwards. The overflowing spear energy crushed the rock and trees, and smoke and dust rose up.

And at this moment, the Pope had completed accumulating power.

A drop of gray rain flew out from the top of the scepter, as if it had crossed the space and accurately hit Jiang He's left chest.

——Tears of the Eclipse.

When the raindrops merged into the body, the first drop of gray rain hidden in the body seemed to be awakened, and the fall occurred irreversibly. A series of prompt sounds rang out, and all the power related to sin obtained from the world of ash was sealed at the source, which lasted for 24 hours.

Jiang He stepped on the ground and leaped back. The seal could be solved by just one revival. The most fatal thing was the corruption of the physical body. The original deadline was shortened to three or four hours. If the Pope could not be killed, even if he survived the world invasion, he would only wait for death if he returned.

Whoosh!
The black gun reappears.

Jiang He could even see the undisguised ferocity and madness on Marquis Tommen's face. Two gun lights, one black and one silver, clashed fiercely in mid-air, and waves of loud noises from the collision vibrated out.

……

The wilderness outside the Theocracy's capital city.

One after another, the descendants of saints are rushing to the battlefield from afar.

"An unknown barrier is covering the world and is shrinking rapidly. It is now certain that this incident was led by Amber Ashes. The Theocracy, the Empire, and the End of the World have vowed to unite."

"Right now, Marquis Tommen and the Pope are besieging Amber. The Abyss Gate is damaged. Speaker Ramanna has already set off. President End and Lust are at the border between the two countries and are expected to arrive at the battlefield in a quarter of an hour."

"We must mobilize the great nobles and legion commanders of the empire. This incident is a world-destroying crisis. All the sin magicians cannot stay out of it."

In the temporary command center, important figures who are rarely seen in normal days are sitting upright, and the alchemical masterpiece, Yuanjing, in the center of the round table reflects the battle situation in the capital in real time.

A young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was sitting at the front, reporting the situation. He was wearing beach pants and slippers, and the traces of sunbathing on his body seemed to still be warm. At this moment, golden light kept flashing on his body, which was a sign of his promotion to gold.

"Let me introduce myself." The young man said solemnly, "You can call me the Prophet of Life. I come from the End World. There is no need to explain the specific situation at the moment. As you can see, I am now in the process of being promoted from the Silver Power to the Golden Age. In fact, about a thousand creatures stuck at the Silver Limit have arrived. We have only one goal, and that is to kill Amber Ashes."

The Deputy Speaker, the Cardinal and others looked at each other in bewilderment. If Speaker Ramanna had not guaranteed his life, no one would agree to give command to this freak of unknown origin.

The Prophet of Life looked around and nodded slightly. As early as when the Battle of the Holy City broke out, the Origin Invaders were inevitably and completely exposed. The process can be briefly described as follows: The End Battlefield was prepared to send an exclusive branch line to the rising star according to the procedure, but it was run repeatedly, only to find that there was no such person at all.

The identity of the Sin of Gluttony was leaked, and the Church of Temperance made the information public. In order to stifle the growth of Gluttony and protect the talent training base, All Living Beings and End did not hesitate to issue conscription orders to their high-level players.

This high-ranking player can be considered a big shot in the boundless void, as he alone occupies a relatively large one among the thousands of subsidiary worlds in the End World. Of course, he himself cannot enter the Ashes World, but the large group of creatures under his command can.

For the outstanding creatures of different eras, there are special assassination and sniping services in the vast void. The descending group of thousands of people is such a service, and their nature is similar to someone's evil guards.

The prophet retracted his gaze and said solemnly, "According to the prophecy, Amber Ash's real name is Mo Ke. He has an ability called the Mobius Final Time Ring, which gives him three opportunities to completely refresh his state every day."

Regarding the concept of refresh, the prophet gave an explanation, and the deputy speaker and others were dumbfounded.

"The worst thing is that this ability works every day." The Prophet of Destiny looked at his watch and sighed, "It's 9:07 pm now. Even if he uses up his three chances, once it's past midnight, he will still be in his prime when we face him."

"This ability... Is there no one to control it?!"

"What kind of abyss ghost did he contract with?"

"Then why are we still fighting? You have six lives, are you going to let me do it?"

The Prophet suppressed his extremely painful expression, took out a long-treasured epic scroll, and said, "No matter what, the war has already started. The solidity of the Duel Wall means that we have no way to retreat. What does it matter if we have six lives? Let's kill one first."
