"After today, I don't know how many more corpses and skeletons will be added here..." Orian Gerten looked at the lush woods around her, but her mood was a little depressed.
Personally speaking, she doesn't want to fight this battle. The world is a big place, and there are many places where we can do missionary work. Moreover, missionary work is a long-term matter. There is no need to fight for a time or a place, let alone to this point.
But she also knew that the teacher's decision was correct.
Now, this mission, for the God of Teacher Knowledge, is indeed something that is easy to gain and easy to lose, but for the God of Nobles, it is the best opportunity for him to attack the powerful divine power. If he takes this opportunity to attack the powerful divine power, his side will inevitably suffer a big loss when the two gods clash in the future.
Therefore, even if it is just to weaken the enemy and protect yourself, you must block the God of Nobles and prevent him from successfully advancing.
Although you have to fight for this, die, and pay huge losses, it is all worth it!
People can't just look at what's in front of them, they have to look far away...
So she just sighed, calmed down, and ordered the congregants to set up their positions and prepare for a tough battle.
Today she brought with her all the elites of the Church of the God of Knowledge, and even the handymen were not ordinary people. With the order, everyone immediately became busy. In just a moment, a large area of surrounding woods had been cut down and the ground had been leveled. Some of the tree roots were dug out, while others were used as base points for setting up magic arrays, engraved with runes, and refined into temporary magic weapons.
As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. With more people, work efficiency will naturally be higher.
These tasks are all necessary. The war of the Church War is very special. It is different from the small-scale melee where adventurers fight against each other, and the cold and fierce large-scale battles between soldiers. Most of their battles rely on their respective divine power positions. , using divine power to perform various means.
In particular, the high-end force of the Church of the God of Knowledge is obviously inferior to that of the other party, so it pays more attention to the construction of positions. Only by building a perfect position and summoning powerful divine envoys can we make up for the gap in each other's military strength and strive for victory.
On the other side, the Church of the God of Nobility has a completely different style of work from the Church of the God of Knowledge. They are also building a position, but they directly use magic flames to burn a large forest cleanly, and then lay it with carved magic runes. of stone slabs, and then use a pre-prepared magic weapon to lay out the position. This is not only faster, but also more effective - of course, the cost is also higher.
When it comes to money, the Church of the God of Knowledge certainly has money, but the "cost" does not only include money. Those magic weapons that can be used to quickly build divine power formations will take a lot of time to make even if the cost is not considered. However, the Church of the God of Knowledge has only been a few decades since its establishment. Where did this kind of accumulation come from
Ultimately, it's still a lack of manpower.
"The spies reported back that the opposite side is leveling the ground and setting up positions." A tall and thin old man said with a smile. "The funny thing is that they actually left a lot of tree roots and carved runes on the tree roots as nodes of the position."
"Haha! This is too poor!" A burly man laughed, "The roots of the tree are not strong. When the two sides collide with each other's divine power, they will break in a few strokes."
"Don't be too demanding of the younger generation. The oldest among them is not even older than your grandson." A woman who was dressed in luxurious clothes and looked quite graceful smiled slightly, but her smile was full of ridicule.
The three of them are one of the nine legendary strongmen of the Church of the Noble God. They are arranged on the front line because they are good at attacking fortresses, extremely fast, or good at space spells. The reason is of course to get the upper hand, and even if the battle situation is slightly unfavorable, they can advance and retreat freely without being easily killed.
"In the Church of the God of Knowledge, there is only one legendary powerhouse on the surface." Behind the position of the Church of the God of Nobles, among the six legendary powerhouses who were discussing, the woman wearing a purple sacrificial robe and a silver crown He said calmly, "However, we have to be on guard against the support of the legendary strongmen from the Church of the Mask of the Void."
"That's a violation of the rules!" An old man who was almost a mummy hit the ground with his crutches, causing the solid stone slab to fall apart. It was obvious that he was old and had a bad temper. He really grew stronger with age.
A smiling young man next to him hurriedly took action. With a flash of green light, the stone slabs overlapped again and returned to their original shape in the blink of an eye. Another middle-aged man, fair and fair as a scholar, advised the old man to calm down and stop being like those vulgar people.
These three people seem to be three generations apart, but in fact they are people from the same era, with an age difference of no more than a hundred years at most. It's just that the one who looks like a young man pays great attention to maintaining his appearance, and the one who looks like a corpse deliberately looks older. That's why there is such a big difference in appearance.
The three in front, these three, are the chief priests of the Church of the Noble God, plus the two tall and silent men with similar looks next to them. These are the nine famous legends of the Church of the Noble God. Strong.
The God of Nobles became a god not long ago, less than 300 years ago. Among the nine legendary powerful men under his command, only four were recruited or trained by him after he became a god. The remaining five are all long-established masters. Later, Take yourself under His wing. Especially the three old, middle and young people were the three most famous masters under the former King of Kings. Back then, because they had conflicts with the high priest, they were treated coldly by the high priest for hundreds of years, and they felt dissatisfied. Later, the God of Nobles assassinated the God of Royal Power and became independent. They immediately joined the banner of the God of Nobles, and were very popular.
Generally speaking, no matter what the fight is, it is enough to use the three of them. This time, the Church of the Noble God sent nine masters together, not only to ensure victory, but also to take advantage of this opportunity to establish its power and let each church see how powerful it was.
It's interesting to say that the Church of the God of Knowledge on the other side also thinks so.
The newly built divine power position was filled with smoke, but spells were used to block various reconnaissance methods to conceal the scene in the center of the position.
In the center of the position, an altar that can accommodate about four or five people has been set up. The priests are dividing gems, gold coins, steel and biological materials into four piles and stacking them neatly on the altar.
"Madam, have we spent too much money?" A senior priest looked at the four small piles of things on the altar and couldn't help but said with some distress, "To use so much at once... I'm afraid. There must be tens of thousands of gold coins.”
"Money is not a problem." Orian said calmly, "What we have to deal with this time is a powerful enemy with nine legendary strong men. If we don't summon a powerful divine envoy, we will definitely lose. No matter how much money we have, it will not matter to the dead." it's useless."
"But... there is no need to spend so much at one time. I remember that each type only requires thirty units to summon the divine envoy... "
"Can that kind of divine envoy help?" Orian asked.
The priest was silent for a moment and muttered: "At least he can exert power close to high-level..."
"But it only takes a few seconds." Orian said, "A divine messenger like that can't be of much help in a battle of this level."
"Maybe with some luck, I can summon something powerful..."
Orian couldn't help laughing: "With thirty units of each resource, I just want to summon a powerful elite envoy... Old Joestar, I don't think your face is particularly white, why do you think so of your own character?" Are you confident?"
The pastor also knew that his statement was very unreliable, so he couldn't help but blush and shut his mouth.
