Chapter 406 The Archbishop and the Devil, the Sad Devil (5200)
So far, Cao Xing has not gone to the main city of Yongshuang to digest the honor points.
There are two reasons for this.
One is because the level of the legendary weapon is too high and Sarah cannot equip it yet.
The second reason is that the main city of Yongshuang is too far away, and it takes two or three days just to travel there. In addition, it is during the "Dolma's Claw" challenge period, which delays the trip a bit.
Moreover, the new dungeon will be opened in a few days. If something unexpected happens on the way, I won’t be able to make it back.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Cao Xing decided to wait for the [Large Space Teleportation Array] to be built before going to the main city of Yongshuang.
Cao Xing doesn't have to worry about whether there will be other survivors who can get there first and redeem the [Dagger of Death] first.
Because the Church of Light has kept a low profile recently, other members of the Church of Light are rarely seen in the surrounding countries.
Therefore, the difficulty of obtaining honor points has increased many times.
In addition, Cao Xing also has an S-level mission [Uprooting] to monitor the power situation of the Church of Light in real time.
If someone really finds the stronghold of the Church of Light and inflicts heavy damage on it, and some survivors receive a large number of honor points, then the progress of his mission will also increase.
But it is obvious that after so many days, the Church of Light not only suffered no losses, but the mission progress also dropped by 1%.
This means that the Light Church may have increased its strength recently.
Cao Xing sighed: "Thinking about it, there are quite a lot of things to do next."
"First we need to find the location of the griffon's nest and tame the griffin."
"Then go to the Skavi Mountains and bring back the body of the animal trainer brother."
"We also need to find ways to explore the ancient battlefield to see if we can capture these undead and give them to Duke Palatine to create an army of the undead."
"Then go to the main city of Yongshuang to redeem the rewards, and by the way, check out whether the location recorded on the treasure map is the inheritance place of the Archmage."
"In addition, the challenges of Jolma's Claw and Jolma's Behemoth outside cannot be left behind."
"Even if we work separately, we still need a lot of manpower."
At this moment, Cao Xing experienced the feeling of being short of manpower for the first time.
Cao Xing quickly planned in his mind and made a decision at the same time.
"It seems that when we go back this time, we can divide the legions into three or four waves for action!"
"Wait for the Centaur to free up some people and let them search for the griffin's nest."
"Muxue and Assam each led a team and continued to challenge the Ice Nest Monster Army."
"And I will lead another team to explore the strength of the ancient battlefield first."
"Try to improve your strength before the Oracle War."
After making the decision, Cao Xing felt much more relaxed.
Anyway, he still has hundreds of thousands of points that he can squander and summon a large number of territorial citizens.
Then, he took another look at the golden equipment that just exploded.
[Skilled Mercenary Scale Armor (Gold)]
[Quality: Treasure]
[Equipment Level: Level 40]
【Armor: 312~343】
[With special effects ①: Agility +120, Constitution +100, Critical hit rate +20%]
[With special effects ②: Advanced unloading (when receiving physical damage, the strength caused by this attack will be reduced by 300 points)]
[Included special effect ③: practice makes perfect (increases own weapon proficiency by 1 level)]
(Equipment introduction: A special scale armor, only some battle-experienced mercenaries are eligible to wear it.)
…
"This piece of equipment has good attributes, and it actually adds level 1 weapon proficiency."
"Very suitable for agile professions."
Cao Xing glanced at the leaders behind him and considered the candidates to be assigned.
Now Rhaenys has the [Silver Wolf Coat] on her body, which is also a golden piece of equipment.
Although Elisa is also an archer, she is not as proficient in archery.
So, Cao Xing gave the scale armor directly to Sarah.
The above [Practice Makes Perfect] special effect can improve her [Advanced Assassination Mastery] to [Expert Assassination Mastery].
It would also be nice to add some output.
The dark elf assassin took it respectfully and quickly put it on.
At the same time, Yaskin came over to report: "Lord, the battlefield has been cleaned up."
"What do you think of dealing with the corpses of these mercenaries?"
Cao Xing said: "Just throw it into the pit they dug."
"Yes."
As soon as the words fell, Yaskin took action.
Cao Xing also walked over and picked up all the weapons and equipment dropped by these mercenaries.
[Obtain: Advanced Power Heart*8]
[Obtain: Mercenary Elite Soul*3]
[Obtain: Mercenary standard weapon (green)*54]
[Obtain: Mercenary Standard Light Armor (Green) 36]
[Obtain: Long Barrel Musket (Blue)*1]
【Obtain: Coin*319231】
【Get...】
…
"Three elite souls, not bad."
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.
Then he led everyone towards the territory.
…
…
at the same time.
In the southwest of the blustery snowfield, in a desolate area.
There is a dark cave there.
Two figures with terrifying auras came to the entrance of the cave.
One of them was wearing a yellow robe, holding a staff, and his aura was like a volcano about to erupt!
The other figure was very tall and haggard, holding an ice crystal sword and exuding a bone-chilling chill!
None other than Archbishop Sullivan.
With the White Walker Overlord, Ozgar.
The archbishop seems to be using some special means to contact the headquarters of the Church of Light.
"Son of Light, I have arrived where you said you would be."
"There is indeed a hidden area here, which contains a strong demonic aura!"
After a while, a young man's voice came to Sullivan's ear.
"Very good, I will use the power of the Dawn Scripture to bless you again."
"Then, you and Ozgar rush in and take back our Holy Scripture of Light!"
"Yes!"
at the same time.
A strong light emanated from Sullivan.
This light is like the light before dawn, making people close their eyes subconsciously, and it also makes Sullivan's aura improve a lot again!
The creatures in the cave seemed to sense something.
A strong vibration occurred.
It's as if something is ready to rush out!
The next moment, Sullivan waved his staff and ordered.
"Ozgar, rush in!"
"Roar!"
The White Walker Lord roared loudly, and instantly rushed out like a cannonball from a string!
The ice crystal sword in his hand contains strong cold air, and wherever he passes along the way, even the darkness seems to be frozen!
And behind it.
Archbishop Sullivan raised his staff high, and the strong power of light drove away the darkness!
After a while, a roar came from the cave.
"Ho! Damn it! Our hiding spot has been discovered!"
"It's a guy from the Church of Light!"
Sullivan sneered and said: "Cunning devil, you must have never thought that you would have such a day, right?"
At the same time, three figures appeared in the darkness.
A young man with a dark aura, followed by two tall and powerful creatures exuding black energy, they were two demons.
One of the demons asked: "Church of Light, we demons are on the same page as you, why did we break into our forbidden area without any reason?"
After hearing this, Sullivan sneered, "Really? Why didn't you say that when you sent the demon slaves to raid our church stronghold before?"
After hearing this, the two demons opposite were silent for a moment.
Then he shook his head and said, "It wasn't us. We didn't send demon slaves to deal with you."
At this time, Sullivan also recognized that these two demons were different from the demon that stole the holy book in Duolun Lake City.
But there was still disdain in his eyes.
"Either you did it, or other demons did it. Anyway, you dirty guys are all the same!"
The two demons looked at each other.
Because they really can't refute it.
Every demon is evil and disorderly, and likes to play with people's hearts.
Maybe one of the guys has a brain twitch and looks for other Light Church strongholds to attack.
At this time, another demon asked: "This has nothing to do with us, what do you want?"
Sullivan snorted coldly: "You know very well what I want to do, hand over the holy book to me!"
Hearing this, the two demons became even more confused.
"What are you talking about? What scripture?"
"Are you still pretending?"
"But it doesn't matter. Under the shining of light, everything will be manifested!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sullivan raised his staff, and the strong power of light instantly filled the entire cave!
And demons are naturally repulsive to this kind of power of light.
In an instant, bursts of smoke erupted from all the dark creatures on the field, including those demon slaves.
A terrifying burning sensation swept through my whole body!
The young man with a sinister aura immediately hugged his body and shouted: "Ah! What the hell is this?"
"My body is going to be burned!"
"Beelzebub, make this guy stop!"
He kept writhing on the ground in pain.
The two demons said in a gloomy tone: "Guys from the Church of Light, stop it."
"We don't want to conflict with you, but don't think that we demons are easy to bully!" But Sullivan said disdainfully: "Let's see how long you can hold on!"
Looking at it, the young man on the ground had burn marks on large areas of his body.
When the two demons saw this scene, a flash of anger appeared on their dark features!
"Humble ant! What makes you feel that you can humiliate our noble devil?"
"A bunch of rats in the gutter, if you don't stop, I will chew your head into pieces!"
"Then let's give it a try!"
Sullivan continued to unleash the power of light without fear!
The two demons couldn't bear it anymore. An evil power emitted from their bodies!
In an instant, a terrifying battle broke out in this dark cave!
The surrounding mountains began to tremble.
boom! Boom!
Throughout the cave, monstrous demonic power continued to erupt.
There is also strong light power and terrifying sword energy.
From time to time, accompanied by the roar of the devil, the mountain is shaking violently!
The battle lasted for nearly five minutes.
The two demons were ultimately no match for the Archbishop and the White Walker Bishop.
The dark body was frozen by the long sword of the White Walker Lord, and black blood gurgled out, dyeing the surrounding ground an ink color.
Even most of their demon slaves were killed.
And the young man looked at the terrifying battle in front of him and had already shrunk to the corner of the cave, not daring to get close at all.
I cursed secretly in my heart, "Damn it! What on earth is going on here?"
"I have just become a demon. I haven't had two good days and I'm here, right?"
Seeing that the two demons under his command were unilaterally suppressed by the other party.
This young man also knows that if this continues, the two main forces he has finally recruited will be killed!
So, he took out a black book from his backpack.
"Crash!"
The black book is open!
chanted the young man.
"!"
"!"
"!"
In an instant, from this book, two groups of dark power fell on the demon's head.
At the same time, the auras of these two demons surged!
They simultaneously burst out with far more power than before, directly blasting away the White Walker Lord and the Archbishop.
"Cough...cough cough..."
After the archbishop landed, he looked deeply at the young man.
"There is some ability, but after all, he is just a puppet of the Demon Lord!"
"Ozgar, kill him!"
The moment he heard the order, the White Walker Lord raised the ice crystal sword in his hand high, and then slashed out a terrifying sword energy!
This sword energy carries a terrifying aura of destruction, exactly the same as when it struck Cao Xing!
However, not all survivors can resist this sword like Cao Xing.
And when the two demons realized the direction of the sword attack, there was even a strong look of panic in their dark pupils!
"Stop!"
“Church of Light!!!”
Uh-huh!
The sword energy swept through the survivor's body without any hindrance, cutting him in half from the middle.
【-172355】
After a horrific injury figure.
The survivor's body was split into two halves.
Before he died, there was disbelief in his pupils.
It seems that he didn't expect that he would die so easily just as he started his journey as a devil.
However, he was still unwilling to give in.
The body that was cut in half showed that there would never be an activation for resurrection.
“Pa…”
After the corpse landed on the ground, it suddenly emitted endless black energy, filling the entire cave.
The two demons stood there blankly, seemingly silent.
After a moment, a terrifying anger broke out in their bodies!
"Damn it! You actually destroyed the Demon Lord's container!"
"Church of Light, I will kill all of you!"
Archbishop Sullivan was also a little surprised, as if he didn't expect that the demon lord's container would die so easily.
However, he still snorted coldly.
"So what if I kill you?"
"I'm telling you, if you don't hand over the holy book, I'll kill you too!"
"Don't think that just because you have the ability to be reborn, you are truly immortal!"
"Under the light of the God of Light, the rebirth ability of you guys will have no effect."
at the same time.
Archbishop Sullivan directly raised his staff and sealed the entire cave.
The two terrifying demons looked at each other.
"Very good, Church of Light!"
"You will pay the price!"
As soon as the words fell, the bodies of the two demons began to expand rapidly.
"All demons, listen, my soul demon/my gluttony demon was killed by the Archbishop of the Church of Light!"
"They destroyed the demon lord's container and destroyed our stronghold!"
"Next, let these rats in the gutter know the consequences of offending our demon clan!!!"
The words fell.
Their bodies exploded at the same time! !
"Poof! Poof!"
at the same time.
In Melind City, in a bustling medical clinic, a doctor who was treating patients suddenly changed his expression slightly.
The next moment, a burst of black energy burst out from his pupils!
On the other side, in a manor in the main city of Yongshuang, a powerful being suddenly opened his eyes.
Including the Orchid Kingdom, the Nakrod Kingdom, and the Velen Kingdom...
All the ordinary-looking figures stopped in place.
A voice appeared in their hearts.
"Let these rats in the gutter know the consequences of offending our demon clan!!!"
At this moment, a hint of anger appeared in the eyes of all the figures!
…
…
On the vast snowfield, a mammoth led everyone and ran wildly forward.
After five hours of driving, Cao Xing and others did not encounter any accidents on the way.
Around twelve o'clock noon.
From a distance, everyone has seen the territory.
Recently, Cao Xing asked the old mage Tai Lun to add a layer of rock barriers to all the buildings that had been upgraded to [Advanced Frost Wall].
Many of the current territorial walls have reached 10 meters high and two meters thick.
Although compared to those big cities, there is still a big gap.
But it's getting closer.
Yaskin on the side looked at the territory with emotion in his eyes.
"I haven't been back for more than half a month, and the territory has changed too much..."
“It’s hard to imagine that there have been such earth-shaking changes in such a short time.”
Cao Xing smiled: "It's nothing. As long as everyone works together, our territory can develop at an alarming rate every day."
After hearing this, Yaskin nodded heavily.
Then, everyone returned to the territory together.
Crossing the gate, we came to the buffer zone outside the territory.
After this period of construction, there are still a lot of floors made...
The entire buffer zone is now almost ready for a floor.
Cao Xing said: "Yaskin, and other wild boar warriors, you can continue to train in the warrior camp."
"I'll call you if anything happens."
"Yes!"
The crowd gradually dispersed.
Cao Xing also jumped off Dabai's back, and then glanced at the agricultural area of the territory.
A large area of fertile land has been cultivated in that area, and the villagers of Puteng Village are building greenhouses. Agate grapes and silver dew berries will be planted soon.
Then, while observing, he came to the central area of the territory.
at the same time.
Cao Yi, the leader, and Du An, the polar man, all came to greet them.
With eager smiles on their faces, "Lord, welcome back!"
"My lord, I wish you well."
Cao Xing nodded slightly, and then asked: "Cao Yi, Du An, did anything happen during the two days I left?"
Leader Cao Yi first reported: "Lord, the day after you left, a man claiming to be the Baron Knights came to visit and asked me to bring you a big box."
Big box?
Cao Xing seemed to understand something and asked: "Where is the box?"
The old man pointed to an open space in front of him, "Right in front of your lord's mansion."
Cao Xing glanced over and found a big box next to the lord's mansion.
Then he walked over quickly and opened it.
Immediately I saw that it was filled with a large amount of kroner.
There are also hundreds of stones that are transparent but emit strong spatial fluctuations.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"This new baron is quite sensible."
"I only asked him to send me space crystals. Unexpectedly, he also sent me a sum of money..."
