"Chen... Your Highness." Du Wei's voice was already dry and hoarse probably because of the turmoil in his heart: "Do you have any backup?"
Prince Chen smiled. The expression on his face seemed to have unreserved trust in Du Wei, with a gentle smile on his face: "Du Wei, I will not hide it from you, of course I still have a backup. The power of the temple is limited in the Imperial City, after all, the Imperial City In order to ensure the absolute dominance of the royal family in the imperial capital, the center of the empire must abide by the agreement that no more than 500 holy knights will be stationed in the imperial capital for thousands of years. Therefore, although I persuaded the temple this time, they There are only 500 knights sent here. These 500 people can consume part of my brother's strength, but it is not enough to turn the tide of the battle. Of course, I still have a backup."
Du Wei couldn't figure it out. In the imperial capital, apart from the magic guild and the temple, is there a fourth party force
The opportunity was gone in a blink of an eye, and with Du Wei's hesitation, the opportunity to assassinate had already slipped away. Two of Prince Chen's bodyguards, who were obviously the best in the imperial palace, quickly stuck up and stood beside Prince Chen, and one of them said in a low voice: "Your Highness, look!"
At this time, the battle situation at a distance of one foot from the central square has begun to change. The hundreds of knights of the Holy Knights were resisted by General Junker. After the two sides threw down all the corpses, a horn full of classical colors came from behind the Holy Knights. The brass horn used is completely different, the sound made by the horn is thicker, with a hint of simplicity...
The holy knights are well trained, after the losses are severe. Suddenly they retreated like a tide. During the fighting between the two sides, they suddenly retreated, but they advanced and retreated in a controlled manner, and they were extremely organized. Coupled with the strong combat power of the Holy Knights, Junker's rebel city guards In fact, Junker's people are exhausted. Seeing the knights of the Holy Knights suddenly recede after hearing the trumpet, General Junker even defended bravely. He was also powerless to order the pursuit, but at this moment, his whole body was sore and limp, and the spear in his hand was almost too heavy to control. Covered in blood, I don't know how much is the enemy's land and how much is his own land. As for the subordinates around him, everyone was wounded, and they were originally piled up with people to block the square at the entrance of the square. In fact, it is already crumbling. If the opponent makes two more charges... No, I'm afraid there will be another one, and my own people will collapse!
After all, the strong individual combat effectiveness coupled with the almost military dispatch organization. It is enough to condense these hundreds of enemies into a terrifying force.
And... after all. The opponent is the holy knights of the temple! The Temple of Light has such a huge influence on the mainland, even many soldiers. They are all devout believers. Although those who dared to follow their coup d'état were powerful and loyal subordinates, and the fight in the square was red-eyed, but now that they have calmed down, many soldiers thought that they were against the temple that was revered in their hearts. This act of betrayal of faith alone can demoralize many soldiers!
Seeing the knights retreating leisurely, General Junker suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Sure enough, the Holy Knights stepped back twenty meters. The temple guards with astonishing fighting power suddenly separated into two teams on the long street, and two old men in moon-white robes slowly emerged from behind the knights. The moon-white robes were devoid of people and trimmings, but they were extremely well cut, coupled with the almost holy glitz on the faces of the two old men, and the awe-inspiring look in their eyes, they already showed their identities.
Member of the elders of the Temple of Light!
It is said that each member of the elders of the Temple of Light is a pious and ascetic old man, and each of them is good at a special magic. This magical system is distinguished from magic on the mainland, and it is implicitly self-contained. Although magicians have always looked down upon this so-called magic. However, the Temple of Light has always claimed that its magic is a special honor bestowed by the gods on these pious priests who serve the gods. Although this is somewhat religiously advocating (Du Wei thinks so). But there is an undeniable fact: From the perspective of the past, there is really no one who can learn divine arts outside the temple! Even a magician who is proficient in magic. But it is always impossible to learn magic.
As the name suggests, the so-called earth magic. It means: the magic used by the gods.
However, it is said that the priests of the Temple of Light are only the spokespersons of the gods in the world after all, so they can only learn some low-level magic arts, and each generation of popes may be able to get the favor of the gods and master some advanced methods.
Divine spells are completely different from magic, and most of the known divine spells in the mainland are healing and recovery spells of the light system, and the waist is some auxiliary modes such as spiritual comfort and light spells. In direct combat, the effect is naturally not as powerful as most attack magic.
However, among the divine arts, there are also some rare ones that possess powerful power. The most famous one, Du Wei has also heard of it, is the so-called "big prophecy". Of course, that is the power possessed only by gods. However, it is said that the group of elders is an extremely mysterious existence in the temple, and each elder in the group of elders is only good at one divine technique. If you are lucky and you meet a member of the elders group who is good at healing magic, then he naturally doesn't have much combat power... But if you meet a member of the elders group, it happens to be one of the few. What he is good at is powerful and lethal magic. Then it is definitely a target that even a powerful magician is absolutely unwilling to provoke!
Therefore, the group of elders is an extremely complicated existence, because you have no idea whether the elder member you meet is a harmless angel or a terrifying strong man!
But now Junker suddenly backed away from the Holy Knights, seeing two old men with indifferent expressions wearing the legendary white robes of the elders appeared in front of him, and their bodies floated over slowly...
That's right. It's floating. The feet of these two elders were about a little distance from the ground, and they were so short and suspended in the air, but they floated out like ghosts. This kind of floating magic, at least from this calmness and freedom of movement, is far more natural than many magicians performing flying magic!
And, Juncker is no fool. At the moment of the bloody battle between the two sides, the members of the elders sent by the temple must not be harmless angels! Then, it must be the kind of elder who is good at powerful magic arts.
Two old men floated slowly from the long street, and the holy knights on both sides shot a look of reverence from the bottom of their hearts at them. Such eyes shot out from the eyes of these devout and ascetic holy knights. , more affirmed General Junker's guess: the elders!
The two elders just drifted in such a strange way. There is no breath in the whole body, and there is no brilliance exposed at all. These two seemingly majestic old men seem to have no powerful breath, but they just stop at a distance of about ten meters away from General Junker. General Junker thought of all the legends about the mysterious elders in the temple, and couldn't help but sweat!
In a sense, divine arts have almost the same deterrent effect on people on this continent as magic. It's just another form of magic. On the mainland, there is usually a well-recognized saying: If you want to deal with knights, you can send knights to deal with knights. Of course, it is better to use magicians. If you want to deal with the magician. Then only use the magician.
In Junker's view, a magician and a magician are almost the same. To deal with a magician, the natural best choice is to use a magician to deal with a magician. Although he is a warrior with good strength, he is not arrogant yet. To the point of challenging two powerful magicians. What's more, under the protection of the powerful Holy Knights, two enemies who can calmly cast magic spells!
To make up for the weakness of being close, they can cast magic without obstruction.
The eldest prince naturally also saw that the Holy Knights invited out the elders of the temple. However, since the Holy Knights came out, and since the temple dared to send the Holy Knights to participate, it is not surprising to send out the Elders.
Although the eldest prince's face was ugly, it was as expected, and he whispered to a "knight" wearing armor next to him: "Sir, magician, I'll leave it to you."
The "knight" made a low and unpleasant voice, and then said with a grin: "I also want to experience the power of the legendary magic of the mainland. This magic has been only famous but I have never seen it... Huh, these magic sticks , I can only play tricks." After finishing speaking, the armor suddenly fell from the horse on the spot, and the arms, breastplates and helmets fell. It turned into parts one by one and fell scatteredly under the feet, while a black air floated out from the armor, as if carrying vitality, and quickly drifted towards the place where General Junker and the elders confronted each other in the distance.
Prince Chen standing on the city wall was almost smiling, and he glanced at Du Wei with a smile: "Look, my elder brother has made another stupid move! The biggest flaw of his subordinates is that they don't have outstanding magicians. The guy with black air is probably the undead black magician who intercepted us halfway two nights ago... Hmph, this is also the only powerful magician that my big brother recruited. It's a pity that he Letting him out on this occasion is asking for bad luck!"
Sure enough, the cloud of black air drifted to a corner of the square, and the black air quickly condensed into a human figure, that was dressed in a black robe. The face is covered under the high hat, and there is a shadow on the face, and the original face cannot be seen clearly. Even the palms of the hands are covered with black gloves, and the whole body does not show a bit of skin. It was Du Wei that night. The assassination loss is not light, so the undead black magician.
The black energy in his body is exactly the very standard spirit of the undead. The characteristics of this kind of magic power, there are many magicians in the audience who support the big prince and the royalists. come out!
But. Such a powerful and strong undead spirit... I don't know how many life elements were devoured to refine the undead spirit! An undead magic has always been subject to many restrictions from the magic union, and often these restrictions make it difficult for a necromancer to practice to such a high level. Because the higher the cultivation level, the more life you have absorbed, and you have absorbed too many life elements to refine the spirit of the undead!
At this stage, you are no longer a legal necromancer black mage recognized by the magic union... but a necromancer black mage considered evil.
Undead, or undead, the difference is one word. It is the difference between good and evil!
The magicians of the magic union, whenever they encounter necromancers, they have an absolutely unquestionable obligation to exterminate them! This is a contract that any magician who has passed the level assessment of the magic union must sign.
The black magician's aura was so strong that it immediately aroused the suspicion of many magicians. Many magicians, even if they belonged to the noble camp of the First Prince, couldn't help but show a deep awe-inspiring look on their faces, and their old eyes stared intently. Staring at that black mage... With such a powerful undead aura, is he really an evil necromancer? !
The faces of the two elders of the temple remained unchanged. Looking at the mysterious black magician in black robes in front of him, suddenly the two of them spoke in unison, with a slow voice like singing, and said loudly: "God said, believe in me, and you will get light. Turn your back on me, and you will get my light." The wrath of the earth. As a rule, I allow the darkness to exist, but the darkness will never override the light. Otherwise, it will definitely invite my purification!"
This paragraph of divine law is exactly the sentence in the religious scriptures of the temple that every believer on the mainland is familiar with. It is the holy voice left by the great gods recorded in legends. At this moment, the two elders recited these words in low and slow voices, matching their sacred expressions. There is also a silent and strange floating appearance, and it has a taste that cannot be described in words...
The eldest prince's face was gloomy. Gritting his teeth: "A bunch of magic sticks. They only pretend to be gods and tricks, but they come to spoil my good things at this time!"
Earl Raymond was silently behind the eldest prince, and this old minister was keenly feeling anxiety and uneasiness in his heart at this moment! What made him uneasy was that this sense of anxiety and oppression did not faintly come from the Holy Knights and the Elders... but...
suddenly. Count Raymond subconsciously swept towards his camp, but saw many magicians recruited by the nobles and wealthy families on the side of the eldest prince. Those magicians were tall, short, fat and thin, and everyone had different looks, but they were all staring at His Highness the First Prince with almost identical complex and suspicious eyes!
There was actually a hint of hostility in this look!
In an instant, Earl Raymond understood everything!
not good!
"The magic stick is the magic stick!" The black magician smiled arrogantly and unscrupulously. Originally, the magicians didn't think highly of the temple, thinking that their mysterious magic was simply a means of deception. Only magic is the only way of power left by the gods! Most magicians on the mainland don't think highly of people in the temple. Although this black mage is an outlier among mages, in this regard, he is no different from most mages on the mainland.
He stretched out his two palms, and two groups of black flames slowly and silently appeared on the black gloves. The breath of death was condensed in the black flames, as if they were winding back and forth inside, and there were black electric lights flickering, as if rolling prints. There were mournful howls like ghosts one after another. This standard black magic was cast, and the two members of the elder group suddenly took a step back at the same time, and the two of them were still without brilliance. But at the same time, he sighed softly.
This sigh, although light. But with magical power, it instantly spread throughout the audience, as if it was softly ringing in everyone's ears.
The two elders appeared strangely, but actually retreated instead of advancing, which surprised the black magician. The black flame in his hand became more and more intense, and he shouted: "Come on, let me see the magic arts Harm it!"
"God said that killing is one of the twelve sins, because life is free. It is an unforgivable felony to let life be killed in darkness. I will purify it. All darkness under the light cannot last forever. land."
After reciting this section of scriptures, the two members of the elders suddenly floated back quickly, and the two of them took out half a strange-looking metal object from their arms at the same time. The two elders backed away quickly, but the two on the left and right raised their hands at the same time, and put the two pieces together. Suddenly, they formed a bronze mirror with an extremely simple shape!
The bronze mirror was originally an empty piece of copper, but when it was closed, circles of water light appeared on it immediately, and a water curtain turned into a mirror-like thing immediately appeared! At this time, the breath of the two elders suddenly surged out from their bodies violently, and the sacred light in their bodies suddenly flew up like a cloud, like a peacock spreading its tail, and the holy light suddenly melted into the joint cooperation of the two like a tide. Spell it out on the mirror! On the mirror, the brilliance suddenly burst forth, and above the water curtain like a glass mirror, a huge beam of light suddenly shot out. The light beam was extremely strong. With a powerful and unparalleled holy aura, it directly enveloped the whole body of the black magician!
Although the intense beam of light is strong, but strangely, the strong light does not seem to irritate people's eyes, making people look at it.
But it seemed that the eyes were very comfortable and soft, but as soon as the mirror light appeared, the holy knights on both sides raised their long swords at the same time. They sighed in unison with pious voices: "Chandra Mirror!"
Chandra mirror
Hundreds of holy knights sighed in unison, and naturally the sound spread throughout the audience! The Temple of Light on the mainland has a great influence. The scriptures describe many artifacts and magic weapons that the gods left behind after the creation of the world. Among them, this "Sendra mirror" is one of the few that are still preserved in the temple. It is said to be The magical treasure left by the gods in the world.
There are myths and legends on the mainland. It is said that when the world was founded, the moon and the sun were created by gods, but the sun's light was too hot and strong, while the moon's light was too cold and cold. Neither of these two kinds is the light that the gods think is the most suitable for exposing the darkness. Therefore, in order to make up for the mistake left by himself in creating the world, the gods spent a lot of their divine power, collecting part of the light of the sun and the power of the moon. Light, neutralized together, this is what the gods think is most suitable for purifying darkness.
Then, in order to store such bright light, the gods looked for some most suitable things to act as containers. Legend has it that the gods used a lot of materials, and were not satisfied with all kinds of gemstones and crystals. Finally, it thought of a suitable thing: water!
Water can diffuse light, but also can store light. So the gods chose water to make this mirror, to store the "light most suitable for purifying darkness" that they left behind in the world, but because water is too soft, in order to make the blood coagulate, the gods took off a piece of their own armor as sustenance. This bronze mirror is a piece of armor leaf on the god's body, and the water curtain on it is the "light of purification of darkness" left by the god! According to the legend, this artifact is one of the most powerful artifacts on the mainland against the forces of darkness... The god left a total of three artifacts for his spokesperson in the world—the Temple of Light!
Of course, Du Wei had read this fairy tale when he was five years old. Even the entire scripture of the temple, Du Wei has read it many times, and even recited many passages. In his opinion, the fairy tales in this scripture and the "Bible" in the previous life are actually the same thing. It is the best propaganda and brainwashing good thing made for the brainwashing of religious believers.
only. Today, the Mirror of Chandra was actually taken out by the temple!
This Chandra mirror. It is a powerful treasure to disperse the dark power, but to use it, you must also have extremely strong divine power. It is said that only the Pope of each generation can learn the method of advanced magical cultivation, so that you can use the three Artifact.
but. Today, the Chandra mirror was taken out. In the hands of the two elders, although they did not have the power to "purify" the dark magician, under the light of the mirror, The whole body of the black magician revealed a strange landscape!
I saw the black undead air all over his body floating around his body, and the black air was solidified almost like a solid body! Under the radiance of the light, he seemed to be standing in a piece of completely dark black ink jade! This strange landscape is usually difficult to see. Only under the effect of the magical Chandra mirror can the undead spirit on the black magician be unable to hide!
