Chapter 70 Blessing from God?
Among the dark clouds, the Night Crow Black Star gunboat was moving silently through it. It was like a dark ghost, appearing, disappearing, reappearing, and then disappearing again under the cover of shadow.
“Hmph hum…”
Mia, who was sitting in the cockpit, was humming a song briskly while controlling the gunship in front of her to quickly rush towards the target location. As an artificial angel robot, it is not difficult for Mia to control such a gunship. She can even manipulate and control weapons more precisely than the servitors here.
"Target found, locked..."
As Mia spoke, the screen in front of her showed the scene of Mordheim not far below. Soon, areas were locked, and then...
"Launch~~!"
The next moment, several hell strike missiles roared out and flew forward.
No one knows what happened except Duanmuhuai. Many people even didn't even see the messenger of destruction trailing smoke from the sky. After all, for them, just focusing on the rat man in front of them was already exhausting their efforts.
Therefore, when violent explosions and flames rose from the ground, almost everyone was stunned.
The Hellstrike missile is an air-to-surface missile equipped with a solid fuel core and a high-explosive warhead, mainly used against armored units. Logically speaking, this is not suitable for use against Skaven - after all, Skaven rely more on quantity than quality, and the armor on their bodies far does not require such missiles that can penetrate the armor of interstellar tanks to deal with them. .
However, Duanmu Huai originally did not intend to simply eliminate these rat people.
"Boom boom boom boom!!!!"
A series of flames erupted around the temple. In the violent explosion, the dilapidated houses were directly blown to pieces. The ground also exploded, creating a deep hole. Under the continuous bombardment, these pits were connected to each other, forming a U-shaped moat that seemed to wrap the temple. But in this moat, what flows is not water, but blazing flames.
Yes, this is the purpose of Duanmu Huai. There is no point in killing the rat people, and what they are better at is digging holes in the ground. Therefore, the best way to prevent the ratmen from attacking is to directly prevent them from entering the temple by digging holes. Nothing could prevent the rat people from further action than a ravine more than ten meters wide.
Of course, logically speaking, bombing in the city is not an advisable method, but the city is already like this anyway, and Duanmuhuai is not worried about accidentally bombing innocent civilians.
But it was obvious that others didn't know this. When they saw the flames rising from the ground and the earth shaking like the end of the world, almost everyone was trembling. However, when they again saw the ratmen being beaten into bloody pieces in the fire and bombing, and retreating one after another, the group of people began to shout "Praise to Sigmar"... thinking that it was the protection of the gods that allowed them to escape this A disaster......
Forget it, whatever works.
In any case, after this bombing, the rat people retreated hastily, and other forces have also been standing still. I don't know whether they were frightened or had other plans. In any case, this time everyone was finally able to relax to some extent and rest for a while.
"Huh..."
Duanmuhuai walked to the rooftop, sat down, and looked at Mordheim in front of him. Next to him was Ogis. At this moment, the doll girl returned to her original appearance. She picked up a book and read it under the light. Even Fia felt much more at ease at this time - she had I rushed into the rat crowd and killed them, and then I was surrounded by the rat people, struck a sword through my heart, and then came back dead. It was a little satisfying.
Meludi has asked Duanmu Huai to open the door and return to the Holy City. She said that she felt that the current weapons were not enough to fight against the enemy and planned to ask Kukulu to strengthen them again. Lorena went to help treat other people. After all, many people were injured in the previous rat-men attack. As a holy priest, Lorena naturally could not leave these people alone.
Anyway, there is a [Murderous Doll] secretly monitoring her, so Duanmuhuai is not worried about what danger Lorena will encounter.
But having said that... after killing so many gophers, the experience is basically not increased...
Looking at the experience bar in front of him, Duanmu Huai also sighed. The game settings of Xinghai OL basically do not encourage players to farm monsters, so when players fight monsters of the same level and low-level monsters, they will give very little experience. Only when they fight monsters of higher levels, they will give more experience. Of course, this is also done to prevent players from exploiting loopholes. After all, if monsters can be spawned, then players can directly control the warship in low-Earth orbit, and then find a manned place to directly conduct a wave of orbital bombing, which is basically equivalent to lying flat and gaining experience.
With Duanmu Huai's current level, if you want to find enemies of the same level on this planet, you can only find elites and leaders of various forces, as well as higher-level demons and the like - but with these It's better to avoid it if you can avoid it.
"Dong dong dong dong!!"
At this moment, suddenly, there was a burst of rapid footsteps. Duanmuhuai turned around and saw Lorena running up to the rooftop. When she saw Duanmuhuai, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Great, Lord Knight, you are here, something happened! Reinforcements are coming!"
"Isn't it a good thing that reinforcements are coming?"
Of course Duanmu Huai also saw the reinforcements, but he couldn't understand why Lorena had such an expression when the reinforcements arrived.
"No, there are people from the Church of Sigmar in the reinforcements. They said they would arrest and execute the three nuns!"
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows. Of course he knew about the battle between the Church of Sigmar and the Sisters. As mentioned before, the twin-tailed comet destroyed Mordheim, and the Rock Monastery suffered the least. As a result, the Church of Sigmar Because of this, the nuns in the monastery were declared heretics. They even broke up with General Pastor because of this incident before, and did not participate in the attack and defense of the temple. Logically speaking, it was their responsibility to purify the temple. Work is coming.
As a result, this group of people started looking for trouble as soon as they came here?
Although Duanmu Huai was not very familiar with the battle nuns, they had fought side by side, and judging from the way they purified the temple, it was obvious that they were not heretics. Now the Church of Sigmar starts causing trouble as soon as it comes, probably because it wants to pick peaches... Why the hell is there so much trouble in the beginning?
"Let's go and have a look."
Having said this, Duanmu Huai stood up and walked towards the temple.
When he came to the temple hall, he saw that the three battle nuns had been tied up by the soldiers and fell to their knees. In front of them, an old man wearing a bishop's robe stood majestically behind the pulpit in the middle, staring at the nuns.
"You have desecrated the temple! You have violated the doctrine! You have fallen into heresy! Now I declare that you will be executed in the name of Sigmar!"
"Wait a minute."
However, just when the old bishop announced the result of the trial, Duanmu Huai strode out of the crowd. Seeing Duanmu Huai, the old bishop was stunned for a moment.
"You, what do you want to do? I'm warning you, this is a church trial and no one is allowed to interfere!"
"No, I just want to ask you a few questions." "Questions?"
"That's right."
Duanmuhuai stared at the old bishop and asked.
"I hear what you mean, these Battle Sisters are all heretics who have been bewitched by Chaos?"
"Yes, that's right! When the disaster comet came, only they were least affected. Therefore, we have enough reasons to believe that they are likely to collude with an evil god, surrender to the other party, and become a heretic?"< br>
"That's it."
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai nodded.
"In that case, is there a problem with the purification of this Sigma Temple?"
"This..."
"Since you keep saying that they are heretics, then they will definitely not be recognized by Sigma, and naturally there will be no way to purify the temple. So according to you, the purification of this temple should be an illusion? So..."
Duanmuhuai made a gesture.
"I hope you can break the curse of heresy and purify the temple again."
"Disrespectful person!"
At this moment, facing Duanmu Huai's words, the old bishop also roared angrily.
"We will naturally purify the temple again, but not now! The most important thing now is to eliminate the heretics! As for the purification, we can talk about it tomorrow!"
"No."
Duanmuhuai walked up to the old bishop and stared at him.
"The most important thing now is to purify the temple. If these Battle Sisters are heretics, then the purification of the Temple of Sigmar is a cover. There may be some trap in it. Do you want us to stay in a temple cursed by heretics for one night? Out? Who is responsible? ”
Hearing this, the soldiers were also in an uproar. Indeed, if what the old bishop said was true and the three battle nuns were really heretics, then they would definitely not be able to purify the Temple of Sigmar. This means that this temple is likely to still hide some kind of sinister and vicious curse. Logically speaking, isn't the most important thing now to get rid of the curse?
As long as the curse is removed, then the accusation that the Battle Sisters are heretics will be confirmed, right?
"Woo......"
At this moment, the old bishop also noticed the gazes of other people around him, and his face suddenly turned pale. But soon, he glared at Duanmuhuai fiercely again.
"This is none of your business! This is a problem within the church! If you dare to question the church, you are questioning God! Do you also want to be labeled a heretic?"
“…………………!!”
Hearing this, everyone else was shocked, but Duanmu Huai was quite calm.
“To question the church is to question God?”
He silently took out his war hammer and stared at the old bishop.
"The church is just a servant of God, and you actually dare to put the church and God together?"
"You………………"
"You are not loyal..."
Under Duanmu Huai's gaze, the old bishop's face turned pale, but at this moment, something strange happened!
The statues erected on both sides of the temple suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light, and this golden light directly hit Duanmu Huai's body. The next moment, the war hammer in Duanmu Huai's hand suddenly emitted a bright golden light. At the same time, a huge shadow appeared behind Duanmu Huai!
That is exactly the figure of Sigmar, the god worshiped by the Church of Sigmar, the founding emperor of the empire!
Seeing this scene, almost everyone knelt down subconsciously, and Duanmu Huai also looked confused. He looked at the thunder hammer in his hand, and soon, a line of system prompts appeared in front of his eyes.
[Thunder Hammer (Melee, Two-Handed, Heavy Attack)]
[+15% chance to cause enemies to explode after being killed, while causing area damage equal to 50% of their health (can be stacked)]
[Each attack has a +6.9% chance of causing a knockback effect]
[Sigma's Blessing: Each attack will add a layer of holy damage attribute]
Sigma appears? Making trouble? Are you not his believer? What are you looking for?
Looking at the information in front of him, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but be stunned. However, when he saw the old bishop with a blank sheet of paper in front of him, he seemed to have thought of something and was suddenly shocked.
When a god comes, he will definitely not show off with nothing to do! Then there is only one answer! !
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai rushed forward, stretched out his big hand, grabbed the old bishop and lifted him up. Then he stretched out his other hand, grabbed the old bishop's robe and tore it hard!
"Crash!!"
The old bishop's robes shattered, exposing his withered body to everyone. If this is a beautiful girl, then it must be a beautiful sight. However, it is a pity that the body of a withered old man will obviously not arouse the interest of others. However, the problem is not here—it lies in the dense symbols and marks on this old man! The most eye-catching thing is the mark of an open eye and palm carved on his chest!
Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai's eyes narrowed.
"Withered Eyes, you are a follower of the deceitful god!"
