Throne of Magical Arcana

Before Gordon finished speaking, he saw Lucien suddenly split into two, one on the left and one on the right, and then cast "Simulacra" again. Then, two figures appeared on the two Luciens, making a total of four. The two Luciens watched him at a distance. This is because both Lucien himself and the "simulacrum" used the "mirror image technique".

Fighting mages is really troublesome. Gordon doesn't have any magic or magical items such as True Seeing, so he can only grit his teeth and turn into a silver-gray sword light, relying on the knight's intuition to attack, and this level of sky knights has no shortage of means of range attack.

But before he had time to pounce, he suddenly heard Lucien whisper:

"Call for backup."

As he spoke, his monocle shimmered.

support?

Gordon's heart sank. Are there archmages or other high-level magicians nearby? Although he suspected that Lucien was bluffing, this is Rentat, and Allinge is nearby. Together, they have the highest density of magicians in the world. The Magic Council must have plenty of manpower when it comes to operations.

Reminiscent of Cardinal Sard, who was facing the Pope's crown, Gordon suddenly lost the desire to fight, and the sword light that rushed forward skillfully drew an arc, and flew away in another direction.

As soon as he flew out, the color around him quickly faded, leaving only lifeless black ash, and his whole body froze in midair, like a bug in amber.

Nine-ring magic, "time stops"!

In mid-air, Morris' figure emerged. Since the situation was going smoothly, there was even a spectacular scene of "God's Arrival" versus "God's Arrival"—it didn't happen to me anyway, so it could be regarded as a classic. He came to enjoy the opera, so he was in a good mood, looking at Lucien with silver-gray eyes, hey: "How do you know I'm around?"

"Both the Pope and Sard have gone to an altitude of 10,000 meters, so I think you, the Royal Family of Holm, should also come in." Lucien would not say that he was indeed defrauding Gordon.

Although Lucien has always believed that after "calling for help", His Excellency Morris and other archmages and high-level magicians will come to help for at most thirty seconds, but he doesn't think it will work immediately. However, if you can directly scare Go Gordon, then I will save thirty seconds, and if I can't, I will also have the magic power of the seven rings after being suppressed. Even if I don't need to transform into a sky knight and play the role of my left hand, it is enough to last for half a minute. up.

Even if Gordon has the "angel descended" possession and the "heaven on earth" boost, reaching the level of the ninth-level golden knight, Lucien also believes that the weird and unpredictable magic can help him resist for at least a minute, not to mention the body is still There is a nine-ring scroll "Ultimate Orb of Destruction", and two tubes of "Solid Helium" that can cast the "Whip of the Snow Goddess".

The only thing I didn't expect was that His Excellency Morris came so fast, it seems that his primary target is also the control center of the magical barrier.

Seeing that there seemed to be a ray of light slowly blooming in Gordon's body, weakening the effect of "stopping time", Morris put away his smile and told Lucien, "Go to the control center, and I will deal with him. After all, he is also Hall." As a member of the Mu royal family, death at my hands is easier for others to accept."

Without hesitation, Lucien rushed towards the control center with four figures, silently thanking the "plan" for its thoroughness, otherwise he would not have broken through Gordon's block so easily.

Of course, Lucien also understands that it is absolutely impossible for Gordon to be arranged by Sard to control the center of the magical enchantment. On the contrary, Gordon should be the candidate for King Holm to appease the nobles after he killed Natasha. , it was "Heart of Time" Ketonia that should have appeared here!

However, in the case of Sard directly encountering the Pope, how "loyal" is Ketonia to die for him? Not to mention that there is also a "Night Walker" Winston who will stop him.

In a nearby palace, Winston with a pair of mustaches seemed to be standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows in a relaxed manner, and said to Ketonia beside him: "Sard faced the Pope directly, even with the God's Descent as a card , and at most it will be the end of both, Your Excellency Cthonia, are you going to attack me?" Since Cthonia is the epic hero who founded the Kingdom of Holm, and it is a legendary third-order, Winston, who was born nearly a hundred years ago Great respect in the words of the "little guy" who became a legend.

"Even if you want to turn against the water and clear the suspicion of heresy by making contributions, you should wait and see how the situation develops, and see how much strength the Pope has left after using God's Arrival overdraft."

The latter sentence was almost the same as what Ketonia said to Winston before. He looked outside silently as if with a sense of vicissitudes of time, and watched Lucien begin to crack the defensive layer outside the control center of the magical enchantment— —The transformation here involves the guarding epic knights. Lucien was afraid of arousing Sard's vigilance, so he didn't think about it here. Fortunately, Natasha gave herself the structure diagram of the entire magic array, and I believe it will be impossible. It can be cracked in tens of seconds.

Then, Ketonia sighed, turned and walked deep into the thickly carpeted room.

Winston smiled and said nothing, looking at Lucien outside again, considering whether to help him quietly and save everyone's time.

Suddenly, he found that everything around him slowed down, as if he had fallen into a muddy swamp.

A flash of sword light flashed, but failed to hit Winston. He emerged from another shadow, like a shadow in the night.

"Your Excellency Ketonia, you..." Winston said, looking at the determined Ketonia. Fortunately, he was always vigilant and never let down his guard.

Ketonia sighed slightly: "Some things, once done, there is no way to turn back."

"Although I haven't been able to find a way to advance to the third level, I should still be able to stop you, Your Excellency Ketonia, for a long time. Are you sure you won't wait any longer?" Winston believed that even if Ketonia could break through himself, the outside The situation should have reached the point where he can't get back, so he tried to make the last persuasion.

If it is not necessary, and his heart is biased towards the Magic Council, he is not willing to fight head-on with the "Heart of Time" whose strength is much higher than his own.

Ketonia shook his head: "You and I are both knights, and we are very clear about the firmness of will. I know the hope is slim, but I have to try to catch it instead of standing here waiting for the end. Even if I die, I have to die on the battlefield." !"

A fierce battle broke out between the two, and both were drawn into the "Heaven on Earth".

Since the battles of epic knights require more space, they quickly broke through the magic defense and fought in mid-air.

…………

Natasha, who was wearing silver-gray armor and a golden crown, inserted the "Sword of Truth" on the podium in front of her. Her crystal clear eyes looked around the hall, and her voice was majestic and resonant:

"A head-on war broke out between the Church and the Magic Council, and it's time for us to make a decision."

"Should we follow the church to eradicate evil and return to the situation in the early days of the North-South split, or help the Magic Council to drive out the radical church faction and directly attribute the faith to the Lord? This is the religious reform advocated by Cardinal Richard, which will cause the split The church is integrated with us."

"If you choose the former, the Magic Council will most likely flee to the depths of the endless ocean after suffering a certain loss. At that time, we will face the front line of the Magic Council. I believe that the Church will also have to rely on us. Coupled with the existence of heresy in the north, the new A balance will be reached."

"If the latter is chosen, the Magic Council will also have to rely on us and the split moderate sects to fight against the church. This is also a new balance, and there will be no need to worry about the assassination of radical clergy and night watchmen, and a relatively calm situation will be restored. "

"The key to victory in the battle is in our hands. What is your choice?"

Speaking of this, Natasha paused on purpose, and the nobles present understood what Her Majesty meant, and the terrifying battle scene outside reminded them that everything was real.

Similarly, they know very well that no matter which one they choose, as long as they are the winning side, they can protect the interests of themselves and others. .

At this time, the Duke of Rex with a white hairdress stood up, and his deep and deep voice sounded: "Your Majesty, we are all the Lord's people, and there is no need to doubt our faith. Since we can achieve a new balance, we can all Why don't you choose the church if you can protect your interests? Why mix with evil magicians?"

More than half of the conservative nobles nodded their heads. This is a reflection of their true thoughts. Even among the enlightened nobles, there are quite a few people who can accept magicians and cooperate with them to make money, but when the overall situation changes, they will not hesitate abandon them.

The scene suddenly fell silent. Duke James clenched his fists and stood up abruptly: "I object! If you follow the church, don't you worry about being assassinated by radical night watchmen? Would they allow alchemy workshops, telephones, magic The existence of crystal lamps, radios, etc.? Do you want to go back to the old redneck state?"

Although Natasha did not communicate with him in advance, the cooperation between Duke James and the Magic Council went to an unimaginable level, and he knew Her Majesty's true tendency, and recalled the time when he almost died at the hands of the "Cursed Angel" Angry, so a quick decision was made.

Natasha nodded in satisfaction. She is indeed the backbone of the enlightened faction, and is called a trustworthy object by the Magic Council and Lucien.

With the speech of Duke James, many enlightened nobles also expressed their position, but they also cunningly expressed respect and accepted the final decision.

In order not to waste time, Natasha lowered her right hand and stopped the dispute:

"Let me say a few words first."

…………

"Song of the Evening" Yourcenar stood in the hall of the House of Nobles, listening to the "live broadcast" of the Holm meeting with the king and all noble members, listening to Natasha explaining the situation, analyzing the two situations, and listening to the nobles They argued briefly.

"If it's just this level, it won't be able to convince us, it only depends on the final change of the situation." Yourcenar whispered to the other nobles.

Nobles with normal brains can think of the two new balances, and they are not Natasha's original ideas. For nobles who are used to balance, the most important thing is to stand on the side of the winner.

A nobleman next to him nodded and said, "Compared to magicians, I still think clergy are more trustworthy. Those ancient magicians have a bad impression, unless there are irresistible benefits."

In the Kingdom of Briana, the Kingdom of Camelot, and the coastal corridor of the Northland, Nether Hammer, Calamity Knight, Burning Lady, and Life Harvester all expressed similar views.

While the two legendary powerhouses Void Hammer and Calamity Knight are still watching outside, Brook has already dealt with Beaver, and led Holt into the magic tower of the Silver Moon Song Alliance. The gate returns to Allinge.

They are an important weight to influence the change of the situation!

"Unable to locate Allinge..." Brook frowned slightly, and probably understood what kind of barrier Allinge was shrouded in through prophecy-like spells, so he decided to return to the outskirts of Rentat through a space jump.

Since the Kingdom of Briana is not far from the Kingdom of Holm, it only takes a few minutes for Brook to fly at full strength, so the space jump only takes a dozen seconds.

Above the ruins of the Glorious Cathedral, Fernando who was suppressed, Hathaway and Douglas who suppressed others seized the opportunity to communicate with each other, it's time! Get there before the Pope returns!

On the nineteenth day, the monthly pass request was completed at three o'clock. .
