Speaking of which, the Holy Spirit possessing Count House had really bad luck.
His methods are very clever. Even gods like Wenner, the God of War, who are masters of powerful divine power, cannot detect his abnormality without close observation. And with his ability, once he is observed at close range by a powerful divine force, he will immediately react and respond.
However, people are not as good as God. Sui Xiong's sensing ability is completely different from ordinary divine power, and it is exactly the kind that he cannot detect. And Sui Xiong's understanding of souls far exceeds the level of ordinary gods. Therefore, his concealment methods did not work at all, and he was discovered all at once.
If Sui Xiong was the only one here, maybe it wouldn't matter if he saw through it. Sui Xiong would just think that this man's soul is too strong, and maybe some demon from hell has invaded the mortal body. Anyway, with Sui Xiong's IQ and his ability to control everything, The impression of God and the Holy Spirit will never be guessed in the direction of "possession by the Holy Spirit".
In his opinion, gods still have to follow rules and have some bottom line when doing things. Even if it's as evil as the God of Fear... Well, that doesn't work, that guy really seems to have no bottom line in what he does.
However, the God of Fear is dead, and so are his group of subordinates and allies who also have no bottom line. The person who sent them on their way is none other than Sui Xiong himself.
Sui Xiong has always hated people who do anything to achieve their goals. He feels that the most suitable way out for such people is to become a quiet corpse and give back to society by turning it into fertilizer.
So he had originally planned to help Earl House and this guy's men complete this beneficial process of giving back to society as soon as possible, until he was persuaded by Wenner.
But now, he wants to take matters into his own hands to help the Holy Spirit of unknown origin give back to society.
"I advise you not to take action." Wenner saw what he meant and advised, "We can just watch from the side. If your believers can't deal with him, you will have time to take action."
"When I think that I actually breathe the same air as this guy, my thoughts are a little unclear." Sui Xiong complained, "My thoughts are not clear, my food is not delicious, my drinking is not good, and even when I sleep, I feel like the bed is scratching my back. , very uncomfortable!”
"Such an opponent is rare." Wenner said, "If it were not too late to prepare, I would also like to find some of the legendary high-level followers among my followers and let them participate in this battle."
"Why?"
"Holy spirits are generally at least strong in the demigod realm, and the power of many holy spirits is even enough to compete with the true gods without falling behind. For people in the legendary realm, being able to devote all their strength to fighting such an opponent to the death can not only inspire themselves The potential of the demigod can also be confirmed in dangerous battles, and the demigod realm can be felt more clearly and intuitively." Wenner said, "After experiencing such a battle, if you want to step into the demigod realm in the future, you can It is much easier than others. We have done statistics and found that people who have experienced leapfrogging challenges without being seriously injured are at least twice as likely to break through than the average person."
"I can directly give them divinity and help them break through." Sui Xiong said.
"Of course you can help, but if you want them to go one step further on the basis of the demigod realm, and even become gods in the future, it's best to let them break through completely on their own strength."
Sui Xiong was silent for a while and nodded.
"You've convinced me, then I'll wait patiently and see how that guy ends up."
They didn't have to wait long.
That night, the weather was very good, the sky was full of stars, and not even a cloud could be seen.
Because of Sui Xiong's reminder, Leon and the others hurriedly walked in the middle of the night, and did not stop until about midnight to rest temporarily.
With the help of Nisi's spell, the entire high-speed mobile force members moved into the magic mansion - this is also the benefit of using phantom horses. If the mounts are real war horses, then camping will be quite troublesome. Just settling these war horses will cost a lot of money. A lot of time and effort. Knights must massage the muscles of their mounts to relieve their fatigue, and feed them high-quality food to replenish their energy consumed by running around all day. When necessary, magic may even be used to help them recover as quickly as possible. Even so, the condition of the war horses will continue to decline, requiring a period of rest.
The fast mobile troops of the noble faction were caught up by Leon and the others because they were restricted by their mounts.
Although their mounts are exotic warhorses with the blood of Warcraft, their endurance is limited after all. After the frequent rapid marches some time ago, the condition of the war horses has declined a lot. Now after each march, they have to rest for at least a full day before the horses can basically recover and can march again.
But even so, the condition of the war horse is still declining. So as "Count House" said, this bloody journey is indeed coming to an end.
After losing the advantage of mobility, even if their team is led by him, it is unlikely that they can break through the large number of troops surrounded from all sides. Unless he can take his shots without restrictions, but what's the point
Therefore, he has already arranged a way out and can bring the matter to a proper conclusion.
At least in his opinion, it was quite appropriate.
At noon the next day, after resting for almost a day, Earl House issued an order for the troops to prepare for the attack.
Now no one in this army would oppose his orders, or act passively and sabotage his orders. As soon as the order was given, about 150 people immediately got busy, preparing supplies, preparing troops, and getting ready to set off.
Less than half an hour later, they were fully prepared, and with a gust of fishy wind, they set off from the village that had been completely turned into ruins and rushed towards a village far away from here.
About an hour after they left, Leon led the Northwestern Republic's fast mobile troops roaring over. The phantom horse flew silently, without splashing any dust. Only the scoldings of the knights after witnessing the atrocities broke the ruins. It was dead quiet inside.
Leon did not ask everyone to dismount and search for survivors as he did initially. Several futile attempts had already let them know that these villains would not leave even one alive.
Gazing across the village where the embers had not yet been completely extinguished, Leon's eyes were as gloomy as the weather in a snowstorm. He ordered everyone to stop outside the village, and the experts in the team who were good at tracking went into the village to check and see when the enemy left.
The tracking expert quickly reported that the enemy had been gone for about an hour to an hour and a half.
Leon, who had been gloomy these days with no smile at all, finally showed a smile.
"Very good." He said, "Let's rest for half an hour and then continue chasing."
"Clito, Asnar, you two go to the front to explore the road and serve as scouts. Nisi, you are responsible for picking them up, and there must be no accidents. Herman, Ye Yu, you will set off with me later. , take the first step. The other side has a very powerful master, and we can fight together to ensure that he can be held back. Gerrard, Felix, I will leave the large force to you. When the time comes, open up the circle and try not to let him go. Those scum have a chance to escape!"
Everyone got the order one after another, so the cavalry that had been running wildly fell silent in a short time. Everyone was silently recharging their energy and preparing for the next fierce battle.
Leon stared at the direction in which the demonic cavalry were retreating. In addition to the murderous intent in his eyes, there was also a high fighting spirit.
A powerful demigod who is extremely evil but in poor condition? He felt like his sword was cheering for the upcoming battle!
