And it was a sweet dream.

No, where is my wedding banquet?

“Now is not the time to think about these things.”

Irelia immediately began to dispatch various supplies, and then pieced together 20,000 troops and personally led the troops to go into battle with Ash.

This is a crucial step in the great empire!

[In July 1788, Queen Irelia announced a crusade against the Holy See.]

[‘The Holy See has always been protecting its own interests. The so-called faith is just a tool used by the powerful.’ – Irelia]

[In July 1788, Cardinal Karls of the Holy See announced the removal of Orlas from his position as Grand Knight Paladin, and announced to the public that Orlas was a pawn deliberately arranged by the Cult of Khorne to enter the Holy See.]

[In the same month, Kars issued an order to gather 300,000 members of the Holy See and take military action under the pretext of “destroying the cult and safeguarding the glory of the Mother Goddess.”]

[In August 1788, the Cult of Khorne and the Cult of the Holy See fought a battle in the Koritas Mountains.]

The battle of the cannon fodder army started first. The scene of hundreds of thousands of people fighting against each other with firepower was indeed very spectacular.

Although the Khorne followers are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, compared to the Holy See followers, all aspects of their attributes are more inclined towards combat, which is enough to make up for the difference in numbers.

Ash opened the map and incorporated the six thousand elves sent from Constantine into the Holy Legion. Then he waved his hand and used his Divine Movement skill – success or failure depended on this one move, kill, kill, kill, kill! !

[In mid-August 1788, the Holy Legion attacked Mestia, and Cardinal Karls personally led 8 Holy See troops to fight.]

[You have entered the Forest of Celta.]

The Forest of Cherta is the only way to the holy land of Mestia.

The Holy See is located in the center of the continent. Only the clergy of the Holy See are qualified to enter the entire holy land. The outer entrance is covered by the entire forest. To the south of the holy land is the largest central city on the continent, the capital directly under the control of the Holy See – Saint Ino City.

The city of Saint Ino is very large, with a population of over 400,000, most of whom are the most loyal supporters of the Holy See, as well as some nobles from various kingdoms who have spent high prices to purchase land here and enjoy the protection of the Holy See.

At this time, in the Forest of Cherta.

A thick fog was rising in the forest.

Scarlet eyes emerged from the fog.

[Your army was attacked by monsters, and 800 people were killed or wounded. ]

[Your army was attacked by monsters, and suffered 1,200 casualties.]

【…】

【…】

Warcraft army?

Ash narrowed his eyes slightly, he was not surprised by this scene, Warcraft is the product of the beast realm, and can be tamed. Such a good thing has been monopolized by the Holy See, how could they not make use of it?

If it were him, he would have emptied the beast territory long ago.

It’s just that the Holy See has always been promoting that the Beast Realm is the disease of the Rhea continent and should be kept away from and eliminated, so no one has ever thought that the Holy See is actually using the monsters for its own use.

What Ash couldn’t figure out was how the Holy See could control the monsters on such a large scale?

at this time.

The group of monsters took advantage of the forest and fog to crazily kill the cannon fodder army brought by Ash.

On the military interface, the 220,000-strong army was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The main sacred force was protected inside so it didn’t suffer much damage, but it was attacked by a group of monsters and it was almost impossible to move forward.

“This won’t work.”

The beasts have a huge advantage in the forest. The combination of forest and fog makes them almost invincible. No matter how many cannon fodders go in, they will die.

“Humph! Burn you beasts to death!”

【Ash ignites the Celta Forest.】

The next moment, the fire began to spread, but before it burned for long, huge blue magic circles condensed above the forest, and then heavy rain fell, directly extinguishing the fire.

“I can’t get in.”

Irelia frowned. If the Holy See defended the Cherta Forest, they would have no chance of survival.

Everyone knows that the Holy Court has the least manpower now, but how can you defeat them if you can’t even get through their gate?

Just then, a message popped up:

【Ash orders an attack on Saint Innocent.】⒏

[‘Warriors, slaughter all these hypocritical believers, leaving no one alive! ! ! ‘——Ash] ⒌

Yesterday’s bounty statistics: 1886 recommendation tickets, 226 monthly tickets, 5700 rewards, 53 blades. Sorry for the late update. I am really too tired today. You can visit the graves on the first three or last four days of Qingming Festival, but it is a bit late here.

Sleep, sleep, the bounty continues, asking for monthly tickets, asking for blades, asking for rewards, all kinds of requests! ! ⒊

Volume 86: Chapter 77 Chapter Everything will surrender to Khorne! The Holy See Pope – the mysterious white-haired girl! ⒋

The most basic and solid strength of the Holy See is the faith management over the years, building churches in various places to win over believers. These people may not be very strong, but they can escort the actions of the Holy See. No matter what they do, there will always be loyal believers who jump out to find excuses for them.

In terms of the number of followers, the Cult of Khorne is far inferior to the Holy See, but the Holy See spreads its faith over such a wide area that it is simply impossible to gather them all in a short period of time. Moreover, now that all the countries in the southern continent are in danger, other continents are just watching the show and eating spectators, and it is even more impossible for them to let their own people come and get involved and cause trouble. ⒉

Even if some members of the Holy See spontaneously sounded the call to assemble and go to the Holy See to help fight against the Holy Legion, the country’s army would have to be forcibly suppressed.

Based on this situation, it was already amazing that Cardinal Karls had called in 300,000 troops with a roar. As the largest gathering place for the followers of the Holy See, the city-state of Shangye Nuocheng located in the center of the continent, with more than 400,000 residents, also began to gather an “army” at this moment, ready to contribute their own strength to the Mother Goddess of Life.

Under the calls of “kill the heretics”, “eradicate the cultists”, and “behead the devil Ash”, the team grew from one hundred to three thousand, and from three thousand to thirty thousand. The atmosphere in the entire city of Saint Ino was mobilized, and groups of believers prepared to go to the Forest of Cherta to demonstrate, upholding the will of the Mother Goddess of Life and denouncing the cruel behavior of the heretics.

Among these believers, there are not only ordinary people, but also guard armies, with numbers ranging from several hundred to several thousand.

Why didn’t Karls gather his followers directly in Saint Ino City?

the reason is simple.

First of all, these believers will definitely spontaneously form a resistance team.

Secondly, these believers have been screened, most of them are rich or noble, and they are the important source of funds and main supporters of various actions of the Holy See so far. It is true that one believer is worth tens or hundreds of others. If the Holy See calls on them to fight against Khorne and die, it will always cause dissatisfaction among some people, but if they organize themselves spontaneously, then the result is none of the Holy See’s business.

It turns out that the power that the entire city of Saint-Inno can unleash is beyond imagination.

And very stupid.

The stupid thing is that the high-ranking believers who thought they had lofty beliefs rebuked the Demon King Ash in a condescending manner, “Foolish heretics, you will eventually be punished by the Mother Goddess!” They seemed to have been accustomed to putting themselves at the commanding heights of morality and faith, and treated Ash like ordinary civilians, thinking that the latter would immediately bow his head like everyone else and accept the baptism of the great God.

Little did they know that what usually made the other side bow down to them was not their self-righteous lofty beliefs, but just a group of guards around them.

But could Ash be wronged? He just ordered Khorne!

Not to mention, when he was taking the inner line of Wei and defending the Royal City of Benicea alone, he was besieged by those bastards of the Holy See. Now it is time to besiege them.

You guys won’t come out, right? Well, there’s a bunch of unruly people here, chop them all up!

At Ash’s command, the army immediately rushed to the city of Saint Ino.

He did not let the Holy Legion do this, but directly let Orlas lead the army of the former Holy See to massacre the city of Saint Ino.

Before Orlas led his army to the royal city, Ash went to find him in person, and with his help, he efficiently instigated the Holy See army to revolt. Although the faith of the Holy See army was much higher than that of ordinary people, under the guidance of the new ideas and the spiritual erosion of Khorne, it did not take two orcs to easily deal with them.

As for those who refused to change their ways, Ash could only order them to be sent to see the Mother Goddess of Life.

After the 50,000 troops were cleaned up, only 45,000 remained. At this moment, this elite force of the Holy Court showed their sharp knives towards the Holy Ino City.

So, when the people of Saint Inno City raised their voices to kill heretics and safeguard the authority of the Mother Goddess, the Holy Court Armored Corps they supported directly massacred all the guards of Saint Inno City.

When the warhorses rushed in front of them, the shock of the silver-bright iron armor stained with blood finally made these high-ranking believers start to panic.

[‘Olas, you traitor! The Mother Goddess will lock your soul in the flames of Kosothoa and let the devil Satan accompany you! ‘] 4

[‘You can’t kill me, I’m a noble from Benicia! ‘] 3

[‘I am from the royal family of Kyrgyzstan and the most devout believer of the Mother Goddess. If you kill me, you will face the wrath of the royal family and the anger of the Mother Goddess! ‘] 5

[‘Under Khorne, all beings are equal, kill!’ – Orras] 6

It must be said that the elite troops of the Holy Court led by Orlas were stronger than those led by Ryan before. Even without the blessing of Ash’s famous generals, the charge effect of that group of punishment knights was no less explosive than that of the Iron Pagoda.

Even the guards of Saint Ino City couldn’t stop them, so how could these private soldiers bought by nobles and wealthy businessmen possibly stop them?

“Really…kill him.”

Irelia was still in shock. She still hadn’t figured out why the Grand Knight of the Holy See suddenly rebelled? Could it be that the Cult of Khorne really had such a strong ability to deceive people?

Thinking that Khorne could grow to such a large scale in just a few years, Irelia was no longer surprised.

It has to be said that in this world full of oppression and cannibalism, the call to start a war in the name of Khorne to crush everything is indeed quite attractive.

At least those civilians who are oppressed by the power of the nobles and cannot survive, once their fighting spirit is aroused, they will become the fuel for burning the old world!

At this time, more than 40,000 troops rushed into Saint Ino City, bringing unprecedented disaster to this prosperous holy city.

[‘The world, burn again!’ – Ash]

Anyone who refuses to obey will be killed!

Kill the rebels!

Even if you don’t resist, you will be killed!

Heresy? Cult?

Please call me the owner of the fourth disaster innate P-society holy body, thank you.

The flames of war spread in the holy city, and soon the peaceful streets turned into a sea of ​​fire and corpses. The nobles and wealthy businessmen who were once high and mighty had now become insects fleeing under a torrent of armor. Just as Orlas said, under Khorne, all beings are equal!

Under this crazy massacre, the entire city of Saint-Inno was reduced to ruins in less than half a day.

Ash was preparing to sacrifice the Blood God. If all else failed, he would just build a temple outside the Forest of Cherta. At this time, a Holy See army finally rushed out from the forest.

[‘Brutal heretic, face the punishment! ‘——Karls]

“Oh, you can’t help it? You’re shouting slogans fiercely.”

Seeing the Cardinal leading an army of 30,000, Ash grinned, slapped his hand, and the army ambushing outside the forest immediately rushed out.

Use the simplest tactics to fight the most important battles.

He was not afraid at all that the Holy See would not come out. If Orlas really massacred everyone in the city of Saint Ino, the foundation of the Holy See would be half destroyed. Without the support of these high-level believers, their development would be greatly restricted.

Therefore, the city of Saint-Inno must be saved!

If you save me, I will beat you.

Ash also mobilized Orlas’s army, and then stuffed tens of thousands of cannon fodder into the city of Saint Ino, letting them kill slowly. The main force surrounded Karls’ army and began a hunting operation.

Karls’s configuration is a combination of heavy cavalry and bishop, focusing on offensiveness. More importantly, as a cardinal, Karls himself has the strength of an eighth-level sanctuary.

At this moment, tens of thousands of troops collided with each other. Karls waved his hand and a column of holy white light fell.

[Karls uses the skill ‘Holy Light Prayer’, all Holy Court soldiers’ attack and defense are increased by 30%, and an elemental shield is generated to resist damage. ]

The holy white light floated in the sky, like a descending curtain, emitting a holy light.

Bathed in this light, the combat effectiveness of the 30,000 troops under Karls’s command instantly soared.

“The Holy Land…”

Ash raised his head. Even without entering the immersive mode, he could still feel how powerful Karls was.

And since he ignited the divine fire of Khorne, he has broken through to the seventh level by absorbing the power of faith. His promotion speed is quite fast, but it is still far from that of the Sanctuary.

In front of tens of thousands of elite troops, a seventh-level warrior cannot change his fate, but an eighth-level holy domain warrior can ignore the power of the army and overturn the table.

[‘Ash, we’re in trouble.’]

Laetitia, who had been accompanying the army, appeared beside Ash.

The dean raised his head and looked at Carls in the sky, only to see several figures appearing behind him one after another.

【Cardinal Karls summoned the Holy See’s high-ranking officials to fight.】

All of them are level seven combat power!

Moreover, Ash discovered that these high-ranking officials of the Holy Court were almost all important figures in the Central Holy Spirit Academy, such as the two deans of the magic academy, and Carls himself was the president of the Central Holy Spirit Academy, a genuine eighth-level holy domain magician!

[‘I can hold Kars back, but you’ll have to rely on yourself for the rest.’]

Laetitia drew out her greatsword, and flaming magic began to burn on her body, appearing sacred and domineering through the simulation interface.
