"Project Angel Legion".
There is a file in front of Du Wei, the ink on the paper is particularly dry, and it has just been written.
The Angel Legion Project—the top-secret plan of the Church of Light. Since the 938th year of the empire, that is, 26 years ago, the Temple of Light has secretly launched a top-secret plan.
In the name of selecting the Holy Knights, young boys from poor families with pious beliefs are secretly selected every year in the major dioceses of the mainland to be filled into the Holy Knights reserve for initial training. All selected young boys must meet the following conditions: 1. The family background is simple and the family background is poor. Two, outstanding talent. Three, have a pious faith. Fourth, the age limit is between eight and twelve years old.
All boys who are selected into the Holy Knights will spend about three years in the initial training process. Apart from learning basic martial arts, they will also be instilled with church ideas, consolidate their faith in faith, and cultivate their loyalty to the church.
And before the age of fifteen, all the boys selected into the reserve of the Holy Knights will undergo a test in secret—of course, all those who participate in the test do not know the purpose of the test.
Subsequently, the core figures in the church will select a group of extremely outstanding people based on the test results, and then use religious belief and secret persuasion to secretly organize these people to take an oath secretly, and then use various methods to name or excuse. Let's make these people "reasonably disappear"! !
The method is nothing more than: sudden death due to disease, dismissal due to serious injury during training, execution for serious mistake, etc... In the name of these, let these selected people unobtrusively be recruited from the reserve of the Holy Knights delisted.
subsequently. These people will be taken to a hidden location in the church for the next step of training.
Rose, of course, is one of them.
And this secret angelic legion seems to be a secret force that the church has cultivated vigorously and secretly. As for the number of people, even Rose didn't know. However, he said the words in proportion. Every batch of holy knights reserve training camp. The elimination rate is about two-thirds. The public name is that these people are either dead. Either the qualifications are not enough to become a holy knight, and after quitting the holy knight order, they are scattered around the mainland to serve as grassroots priests in various places.
This detail made Du Wei think for a while.
Eliminate two-thirds... Obviously, the so-called "angel legion". Naturally, it was among the two-thirds of the people who were eliminated.
The question is, how many people are there in the Angel Legion
this problem. Rose couldn't answer either.
Rose's identity was selected into the Angel Legion after a test many years ago, and at that time, Rose was still very young. According to Rosseti's confession, that group of people at that time. It is considered to be a group of geniuses among the holy knight reserves trained by the church over the years! From that group of people, many outstanding young heroes emerged, among which Hussein was naturally included.
Fortunately, among the best Hussain. Instead, he lost the election. The reason is probably that the Grand Knight Commander of the Holy Knights at that time was very optimistic about this young man, and the church also needed a strong young knight as a future banner figure! ——If all the good seedlings were brought to the secret Angel Legion, then there would be a lack of a heavyweight piece in the Holy Knights on the table.
Therefore, Hussein was lucky to lose the election. And a group of other outstanding young people, including Rose, were selected into the Angel Legion.
And this batch of selected Angel Legion. It's different from before. Because this time, waiting for them is a huge choice!
According to Rosé's confession, after they took the oath in secret, these young people who had been instilled with pious faith since childhood were taken to a secret location. Then, to the excitement of these young people, the current Pope Paul XVI of the temple His Majesty. Actually met these young people in person.
Then, His Majesty the Pope spoke in a serious tone. A question was asked to everyone: Are you willing to dedicate your life for what you believe in
Young people always have blood and dreams. And that kind of belief and sense of mission is a catalyst that makes people devout to the point of madness! result. All those people in the land expressed their willingness to sacrifice everything for their faith!
Afterwards, after these people had undergone strict physical examinations and tests, they were told: For the glory and glory of the Church of Light, the goddess will descend a group of angels to the world! And these angels need physical bodies in the world!
The result... speaks for itself!
The reason why these young children are required to take the initiative to promise to be willing to sacrifice is said to be because when the angels descend, the souls of these descended physical bodies will be fused by the angels—equal to death!
In the process of fusion, if the soul of the main body is forced, then the process of fusion requires the angels to expend a lot of power to resolve this repulsion. Therefore, in order for each descending angel to retain 100% of its power after fusion , the descended body soul must be completely obedient and obedient.
For their faith, five of those people gave their lives—and Rose was the sixth! He lost.
Five angels came to the world, but up to now, there are only two left: one is the Sphinx who was killed by Du Wei. Another one, according to Rose's confession, there is an angel named "Opdis" in the church.
As for the other three...
"They're all dead." When Rose said this, his face was indifferent, and his eyes were ashen.
It turns out that the arrival of the angels is not 100% perfect. However, after the human body is mastered by the angel soul, the subsequent development is not all as expected.
For example, Sphinx and Opdis, after their arrival, their strength soared quickly, and they broke through the holy rank in one fell swoop.
The other three are due to some problems in the fusion process. In the end, his strength only stayed at the ordinary level, and did not reach the holy level!
The angel descended from the goddess has not even reached the holy rank—how to solve that
Rose's answer was: Sphinx and Opdis both acted in person. Killed the other three angels whose fusion failed. Because, it is said that this is the will of the goddess.
Regarding this mysterious "angel army", according to Rose's description. Obviously an "upgraded version" of the Holy Knights!
Because according to the description. These knights in the Angel Legion are stronger and more devout than ordinary members of the Holy Knights. more indifferent. Crazier!
Especially after years of training, almost everyone of these guys has become absolutely loyal to the church. Absolutely devoted to the belief of killing weapons!
Yes, after years of harsh training and almost brainwashing indoctrination, these guys have no reason at all. It can even be said that as long as they are taught the point of the sword, these people will charge forward like a machine!
No matter who the enemy is!
Du Wei couldn't help but secretly startled: Who is the church's goal in establishing such a cruel mysterious force
Could it be... the Roland Empire
or. The church has long been determined to disintegrate the empire and replace it
The struggle between theocracy and imperial power. It has existed since the founding of this empire. For thousands of years, the two sides have maintained a delicate balance, but now... Could it be that the church has ambitions. Hope to replace imperial power with theocracy
No emperor... just the pope? !
When Du Wei thought of this place, he stayed for a while.
About Rose himself, he explained. But with a subtle special case.
What's more coincidental is that this subtle special situation was caused by Hussein!
As we all know, Hussein had been trained by the church as the future leader of the Holy Knights before his apostasy more than three years ago! A young genius knight. He also has the halo of the number one knight in the mainland, and is recognized as the knight who is most likely to break through the holy rank in a century. Moreover, he has entered the church since he was a child, and he is devout and loyal to the church.
If those accidents hadn't happened, Hussein should have become the banner of the Holy Knights!
Unfortunately, after Hussein's apostasy. The three giants of the Holy Knights: Hussein himself apostate, and the other two knight commanders also died under Hussein's hands. The three giants of the Holy Knights were wiped out!
Among the majestic Holy Knights. Suddenly lost the leader. And in the process of hunting down Hussein. The temple also lost a lot of mid-level and high-level holy knights! This result has greatly weakened the strength of the Holy Knights.
Although the church secretly has an angelic legion. But the Angel Legion is a secret that cannot be made public. Well, if the holy knights on the table are too weak, it will really hurt the dignity and majesty of the church.
Therefore, the Church urgently needs to replenish the Holy Knights with new blood and strength.
In the holy knight order of the church, there are even very few knights of the eighth level, and there is not a single knight of the ninth level!
And at this time, Rose became the focus!
The Holy Knights that Rosie left by feigning death back then joined the Legion of Angels, although he was unsuccessfully selected to become the body of an angel descending. So he was lucky to survive.
Although he failed to become a descending angel, his strength jumped to the holy rank in one fell swoop. But Rose was also one of the most outstanding young talents carefully selected to join the Angel Legion back then.
After so many years of hard training in the Angel Legion, Rose already possessed the peak strength of the eighth level. Moreover, after the personal confirmation of the leader of the Angel Legion, Opdis, the angel made a very firm judgment: Rose's strength will be greatly improved within three years! And he is likely to become the only knight in the temple who can advance to the holy rank by his own strength after Hussein!
At that time, Rose had already been confirmed as the leader of the Angel Legion!
The structure of the Angel Legion is roughly like this: Opdis and Sphinx, as two major angels, are the supreme leaders of the Angel Legion, and Opdis is still above Sphinx.
But proud angels disdain to lead human knights in battle. Therefore, although the two angels are the supreme leaders, in fact, the Angel Legion still needs a real leader, and this candidate has always been confirmed as Rose.
It's a pity that after Hussein's apostasy, there were disagreements among the core executives of the temple.
Pope Paul XVI intends to withdraw Rose from the Legion of Angels and add him to the Holy Knights. Because the Holy Knights needed a powerful leader to sit in command—otherwise, it would be too shameful for the prestigious Holy Knights in the mainland to rely on only a few eighth-level knights for appearances.
Du Wei smelled an imperceptible taste from this information: Obviously, Pope Paul XVI seems to value the Holy Knights more than the Angel Legion!
Maybe it's because... the Angel Legion is in the hands of the Angels. And only the Holy Knights are truly in the hands of the Pope
Sighing lightly, Du Wei closed the file. Under the file was Rose's autograph.
This signature is written below by Du Weirang. After signing this name, Du Wei knew that Rose was really in his grasp!
Casually placed a magic mark on this file, and Du Wei put it away carefully. Then he raised his head and glanced in front of him.
In this study, opposite to Du Wei's desk, Rose was sitting on the thick carpet, next to the blazing fireplace, the flames reflected on his face, adding a tinge of blood to his pale face.
