"God descended?!"
Almost instantly, looking at the swollen black shadow, Wu Ming recognized it.
In the Eastern Shinto, there is also such a ceremony, through the name and rituals of the gods, to receive the divine power of a high-ranking existence.
"Those who can do this are at least Earth Immortals, or higher..."
Wu Ming suddenly became excited.
Compared with Shinto, even though the individual strength of the Earth Immortal is higher, its scope is still equivalent to that of the Earth God, and it can only perform spells such as mana lending within the scope of its own legal realm.
But this is obviously not the case now.
The high-level projection that covers the entire continent is a power that can only be obtained by contacting the original force of the world!
"It's just... this divine drop is not complete, and even its state doesn't seem right!"
Wu Ming looked at the completely new black figure in front of him, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
"Law - Deterrence!"
In the next moment, the shadow suddenly moved.
A few short and profound words came out of its mouth, and instantly aroused the power of the rules around it, as if the law of heaven and earth were the same, and the words followed the law, and launched an attack.
Boom!
A shock wave came, and Wu Ming suddenly felt as if his mind was being tortured powerfully. If he felt the slightest hesitation, shock, etc., his hands and feet would immediately become stiff and unable to move.
Just like Arthur next to him, the moment the shock technique came, his whole body seemed to become a sculpture, even a child could easily kill him.
call out!
The black shadow turned into a black line again, stabbing towards Wu Ming, but suddenly pointed at Arthur halfway: "Law—Death!"
A black line pierced like lightning and came to Arthur in an instant.
"guard!"
Peng!
A layer of golden light emerged, like a round shell, protecting Wu Ming's surroundings, and Arthur blocked the black line's attack.
"Sure enough, the first target is me, and the second target is Arthur... Are they all the sacrifices you desire?"
Wu Ming pushed Arthur away: "You, formed by the power of faith, may not have been personified. You are just a beast from head to toe that only knows instinct!"
"Jie Jie!"
The black shadow looked at Wu Ming, his blood-red eyes never concealed his killing intent, and he waved his hands suddenly: "Law—Kill!"
Whoosh!
The blood-red, half-moon-shaped light blades danced and connected with each other, locking Wu Ming's surroundings almost instantly.
"Faith... I have it too!"
Wu Ming's gaze was very strange. He suddenly poured the blood of Arthur in his hand on the sword in the stone, and raised it high: "The power of all peoples, increase!"
boom!
On the sword in the stone, a dark golden flame blazed up and suddenly fell down.
A huge round of dark golden moonlight emerged, destroying all the blood moons in a devastating manner, and the powerful shock wave caused the entire tent to fly into the air.
Such a huge movement, as long as the people outside are not fools, they will definitely notice it.
"Protect Your Majesty!"
A large number of knights and mages of the watchmen rushed forward, and immediately saw their king, William I, holding the sword in the stone, and stabbing into the chest of a huge dark monster.
The monster has a human shape, and the darkness and richness on its body, like its essence, dissipates little by little under the golden flame.
"Ah... this is..."
The archbishop rushed over and looked at this scene, his face sank even more: "Priest, prepare the holy water, we are going to perform a purification ceremony!"
"No need!"
Wu Ming pulled out the sword in the stone, and the shadow in front of him suddenly collapsed. A trace of black air flow wanted to escape, but it was burned by the golden flame, and there was no trace left.
"This is a Shadow Assassin! I feel the power of the spell. It is in a cave not far to the east of the barracks. Immediately send knights to search there!"
He gave the order calmly, and immediately looked at the archbishop: "Prepare me a new tent, take Arthur away, and the archbishop stays, I have something to say to him!"
…
The news about the assassination of the King of Conquerors naturally couldn't be concealed. After all, such a big movement spread throughout the entire military camp.
Fortunately, after Wu Ming rode a steed around the barracks, he immediately suppressed the rumors and commotion.
At this time, the knights who went to the east to search also came back to report that they had found the assassin, but the other party had turned into a mummy in the cave.
God's descent technique needs to consume lifespan, coupled with being defeated by Wu Ming, the poor assassin was immediately drained of all vitality, it would be a strange thing if he was still alive.
At this time, in the camp, all the guards and irrelevant people have retreated.
Only Wu Ming and the archbishop were left, staring at the mummy without saying a word.
"It really is them, this group of thieves of faith, the rats hiding in the gutter!"
The archbishop stepped forward with great experience, groped on the mummy for a long time, then lifted the arm of the mummy, and wiped a layer of potion on it.
A blooming mandala flower tattoo suddenly emerged, extremely coquettish.
"them?"
Wu Ming seemed quite interested.
"Yes, the Hand of Shadow! An organization that believes in the Lord of Shadows, and the largest assassination group in the entire continent of Sear."
The archbishop looked at the mandala with a serious expression on his face: "Purple mandala, this assassin is probably one of the current shadow kings, the strongest assassin in the mainland, but died here quietly."
"You seem to have missed something!"
Wu Ming reminded with a smile: "I am obviously familiar with this Lord of Shadows, and you guys seem to know more about the Hand of Shadows..."
"My king, since you have already guessed it, why do you need to ask your servant..."
The archbishop's voice was dry, as if he didn't want to mention this matter very much.
"It's also... a glorious and holy god has turned into an evil god who needs human life as a sacrifice. If it is spread, it will be a great blow to the church!"
Wu Ming said lightly.
This 'Lord of Shadows' is the new God born in the history of the church!
If this news spreads, it will be a huge scandal that shakes the foundation of the church! Light and darkness are not opposites, but exist in harmony.
The church was founded by a great sage with the intention of enlightening the wisdom of the people and preparing for catastrophe.
But the common people's beliefs, after a long period of accumulation, actually gave birth to a brand new god!
He even made several shots for his faith, interfering with the operation of the church.
The struggle between theocracy and human rights was carried out under the resistance of the top leaders of the church. I don’t know how many shady scenes have been experienced. In the end, because of the limitations of this universe, the mortals won the victory. The saint Gabriel died for no reason. Even The new gods fell into silence, and no more oracle was issued.
But this is only in the church.
The most terrifying thing about gods is that as long as they have the support of faith, they will have almost unlimited lives, and some have time to wait, silently accumulating strength, until they make a comeback.
After most of the faith in the church was cut off, this new god fell into a deep sleep, but it did not give up. Instead, after waking up, it became the Lord of Shadows and supported another organization.
With the shadow hand supported by a true god, the speed of development is extremely astonishing.
By the time the church realized something was wrong and jointly boycotted it with the University City, the Shadow Hand had spread all over the entire continent of Searle and could no longer be cleared away.
The open and secret struggle between these two families is also going on all the time.
It's just that everything is shrouded in darkness, and no information is spread on the bright side.
"How many secrets do you guys have?"
Wu Ming listened, but was very speechless. He felt that the great sage, the uncrowned king, seemed to have left a lot of things, which was very meaningful.
Even, maybe the appearance of this new god is also in his calculations.
"have nothing left… "
After the archbishop told the story, he seemed to finally let go of his thoughts: "Our church has no reservations or secrets in front of you."
"So, this Lord of Shadows should hate me very much..."
Wu Ming touched his chin.
Although the church banned it before, it did not dare to completely ban faith, so the Lord of Shadows can still receive part of the power of faith one after another.
But as soon as Wu Ming came, he took the bottom line and claimed that he was the incarnation of God, the king of the mainland, but he had the power of all peoples in him, and took away his faith at once, which really broke its foundation.
If it continues like this, relying on the belief in the darkness of the Hand of Shadows, it is not enough for the Lord of Shadows to come out and move, maybe he will fall into a long deep sleep again.
Therefore, it must stop all the actions of the King of Conquerors, and it will not hesitate to pay any price for this!
"It seems that our Duke of Wellington has colluded with the Hand of Shadow."
Wu Ming looked in the direction of Lion Heart City and said with a smile.
"This duke has turned to darkness, a great crime against all mankind!"
The archbishop rolled his eyes, and immediately said sternly: "I even suspect that several assassinations in the Wellington family have the shadow of the Duke of Wellington, and dare to organize this assassination... My king must Immediately break through Lionheart City and bring the Duke of Wellington to trial!"
"That's a good excuse. Let's just spread the word. The Duke of Wellington has joined the devil's arms and assassinated a large number of relatives!"
Wu Ming waved his hand.
This kind of public opinion attack is actually useless, but if it cooperates with the army in hand, it will be different immediately.
"In addition, send envoys to all the nobles of the highlands. I will reveal the holy sword in the stone when I attack the Lionheart City. This certificate of the king represents my legal rights to the highlands. Any opponent is against the Lionheart King. The next law!"
Now that the sword in the stone has been obtained and most of the seals have been opened, it is natural to extract all the value of this sword, and nothing can be wasted.
It is conceivable that the combination of so many unfavorable factors will definitely put great pressure on the Duke of Wellington even if the attack has not yet started directly.
