Chapter 238 Before the decisive battle (4k, 10,000 updates today!)

After completing the inspection of his own status, Luo Xiu also conducted panel inspections one by one on other clergy members of the church who participated in the "Altar Ceremony".

Anthony and Pamier received 38 and 29 "divine" attribute values ​​from the ceremony respectively, while the "divine" attributes obtained by the other "deacons" also ranged from 25 to 45. float between points.

For them who are still "triple destiny", this value is already one-tenth or even one-fifth of the "divine" attribute value they possess.

This "Altar Ceremony" will undoubtedly bring a huge improvement to all the priests who participated in the ceremony. Even the consecrated priests with "second destiny" on the periphery have each gained 10 to 15 points of "divinity", which is equivalent to one-third of their previous "divinity" value.

After checking the status of all the priests who participated in the ceremony, Luo Xiu announced in a calm voice: "The 'Altar Ceremony' has been successfully completed."

"Everyone, you have been given the gift of 'casting the sun for a moment'. You should be able to feel the sublimation of your own 'spirituality' for a moment, which will become your new, sacred power."

"Now, go back to your respective residences to fully understand, feel and digest your newly acquired power."

After a pause, Luo Xiu then solemnly said:

"From then until dawn tomorrow, all your work in the 'church' can be temporarily suspended."

"And at dawn tomorrow, you will follow me out of the city and participate in the decisive battle with the Pioneer Army of the Dark Principality."

"This time, we will cooperate with the 'Bianting' and 'Fangbeiyuan' to drive the enemy twenty miles outside of Red Maple City. I will tell you the specific arrangements at that time."

"Do you understand everything?" Luo Xiu finally asked in a gentle but majestic tone.

"We understand."

Anthony responded first, and the "deacons" of other churches also echoed:

"'We revere, we believe, we protect, and we judge'. We all bear in mind the precepts of the Holy Court."

"And this time, we not only have the purpose of 'adjudicating heresy', but also to avenge the day before yesterday, setting off fireworks of revenge against the enemy for our comrades who sacrificed their lives!"

"Very good." Luo Xiu nodded and said:

"Then, let's disband. Everyone go to their respective places and do what you should do."

"At dawn tomorrow, when the first church bell rings, I will be here waiting for you."

"At that time, I will go out of the city with you and seek revenge and judgment against our enemies, the vanguard of the 'Dark Principality'."

"Everyone, the light of 'Xu Mo' will protect us. We will definitely get what we want, and we will triumph."

After completing the "Altar Ceremony" and delivering the final words to the priests who participated in the ceremony, Luo Xiu watched all the priests leave the altar and return to their residences in the inner courtyard.

These clergymen of the church are in good condition now, and after they have fully rested and relieved the fatigue caused by the ceremony, they will enter their peak state. Luo Xiu knows this in his heart.

With the best condition to meet the upcoming decisive battle outside the city, the probability of completely annihilating the enemy will be higher, and it can also ensure the survival of as many priests as possible...

Luo Xiu was thinking about this, and he also walked off the altar and walked in the direction of the "Great Sacrifice Residence".

When Luo Xiu returned to the "Great Sacrifice Residence", his already deeply tired body finally got a peaceful sleep.

Until dawn the next day.

When the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the earth, the church bell also rang a distant and long tone.

The hour of dawn has arrived. Ten minutes ago, Luo Xiu had woken up from his slumber.

After waking up, he got up from the bed, walked to the place where the clothes support was placed in the room, took off his 'big sacrifice' gown from there, walked to the door of the room, and opened the door.

He walked out of the room, switching his spirituality to quickly escape from the ignorant state of just waking up, and quickly walked down the stairs, walked out of the door on the first floor, and walked out of the courtyard of his residence.

Halfway through the journey, Luo Xiu had completely regained consciousness. He then continued walking towards the inner courtyard of the church and the altar of the statue of Xuyu, and arrived at his destination five minutes later.

At this time, several clergymen had arrived here first, including Anthony and Pamier.

Seeing Luo Xiu arriving, Anthony and Pamier walked up to meet him. Luo Xiu and them nodded to each other in greeting, and then heard Pamier say: "The inquisitors of the 'Holy Inquisition' are all ready and waiting for dispatch at any time."

"Yes." Luo Xiu nodded and said, "I understand, you have worked hard."

Anthony and Pamier also nodded, and they no longer chatted for too long, but returned to their respective positions.

Luo Xiu passed by Anthony and Pamier and went straight to the altar, where he waited for the last three minutes.

Within three minutes, all the priests who were going out of the city to participate in the decisive battle arrived one after another. There were a total of six "deacons" with "three-fold destiny" and seventy "two-fold destiny" priests.

All the novice priests who are still in the 'first-fold destiny' did not participate in this decisive battle, and the remaining three 'deacons' of the 'third-fold destiny' and more than thirty priests in the 'second-fold destiny' He is responsible for keeping the house and maintaining the basic operations of the church.

After all the clergymen who would follow them out of the city arrived, Luo Xiu said to everyone:

"Very well, everyone. You are all very punctual, which is exactly what we, the priests, should be."

"Now, let's set off to the outside of Red Maple City and meet up with the defenders of Red Maple City, as well as the people from 'Bianting' and 'Fangbeiyuan'."

Half an hour later.

Outside Hongfeng City, on the cleared battlefield.

Seventy thousand soldiers from Red Maple City formed seven large military formations, and they had formed a strict formation on the battlefield outside Red Maple City.

The imperial banners were swaying in the wind one after another, and the fluttering banners had covered the sky. Looking from above, it looked like a bright, churning sea of ​​fire. In front of the seven military formations, Lord Nelson was riding an armored war horse, looking into the city from time to time in front of the military formations.

In front of Lord Nelson, the 'Grand Inquisitor' Baines and the 'Knight of the Throne' Frosa also rode their war horses, looking straight at the vague first-line camp of the 'Dark Principality' vanguard army in the distance. The expression on his face was solemn.

The two leaders of the 'Bianting' were already present, and in front of another military formation not too far away from them, the two fourth-level destiny 'Great Knowledgeers' from the [Intelligence] Fangbeiyuan were also there. Came to the scene.

The first among them is the ‘Great Alchemist’ named ‘Erfan Diouf’; the other is the ‘Great Rune Master’ named ‘Eureka West’. The 'Great Alchemist' Alfan is the 'acting dean' of the 'Fangbeiyuan' stationed in Red Maple City, and the 'great rune master' Eureka has been recently transferred and is the 'acting deputy dean' of the Fangbeiyuan.

They all wore lake blue robes, and dark gold silk threads outlined one geometric figure after another on the robe. They fit or overlap with each other to form complex and mathematically beautiful patterns. This is [Intellect] The purest "aesthetics" in the eyes of its believers.

The two ‘Great Knowledgeers’ of the Monument Court, Irfan and Eureka, were not riding horses, but walking. Behind them are dozens of 'alchemists' and 'rune magicians' who are also wearing lake-blue robes. They will also go to the battlefield with the large army to participate in the decisive battle.

In addition to the clergy of the "church", all the army soldiers and extraordinary beings who will participate in the decisive battle have been prepared. Just wait for the arrival of the chief priest of the "church" before you can charge at the enemy.

Two minutes later, there was a sudden commotion behind the military formation where Lord Nelson was. This made Lord Nelson, who had been paying attention to the situation behind him, raise his eyebrows.

Sure enough, in the middle of the passage between the two military formations, at the end of Nelson's sight, a team wearing white robes appeared.

That is the clergy team of the "church"!
And Luo Xiu, the church’s “master of ceremonies”, was at the front of the church’s clergy team. He was riding the "Golden Pegasus" Pegasus, moving in step with the other priests towards the front of the military formation.

At this time, although Pegasus had restrained the holy flames covering his body according to Luo Xiu's instructions, his horns emitting bright and pure light, as well as the faint golden luster flowing on his body, still remained. It attracted the attention of most of the surrounding soldiers.

That was the first time they saw the church's "master of ceremonies" in person. He and the Pegasus under his crotch were too eye-catching, which was also the source of the sudden commotion behind the military formation.

When he saw the clergy of the church finally appearing, Lord Nelson had an expression of joy on his face. He then galloped up to meet him, and reined in his horse in front of Luo Xiu, who was "presiding over the great ceremony".

"You are finally here! Lord Luo Xiu of the Great Sacrifice!"

Lord Nelson greeted Luo Xiu, and he turned his horse's head at the same time, keeping the same speed as Luo Xiu, and said: "Our Lord Baines and Lord Frosa from the 'side court' are already waiting for you. It’s been a long time. There are also Lords Irfan and Eureka from the Monument Court, they are also waiting for you.”

"Sorry, Mr. Nelson."

Facing Lord Nelson's overflowing smile, Luo Xiu had an apologetic expression on his face and said:

"It seems that we were the last to arrive and kept you waiting for a long time."

"No, this is exactly the appointed time. You and your priests came just in time."

Lord Nelson said with a smile: "Actually, the adults from the 'Fangbeiyuan' arrived first, but our Lord Baines and Lord Frosa from the 'Bianting' needed to clean up the military formation, so they arrived early. You and your The holy priests are the true examples of 'punctuality' and the true embodiment of 'not wasting or exceeding even one second of time'."

As Lord Nelson continued to flatter him, the apologetic expression on Luo Xiu's face gradually faded. He quickly understood the tone of Nielsen's words, and with a calm smile on his face, he said to Nielsen:

"We have indeed made more preparations. This is also to ensure that the subsequent decisive battle is as foolproof as possible."

"..."

Luo Xiu and Lord Nelson were having a brief exchange of words while leading the church's priests to the military formation.

"Grand Inquisitor" Baines and "Knight of the Throne" Frosa nodded to Luo Xiu from afar. Luo Xiu also nodded slightly in response.

When Luo Xiu acted as "Shura" before, Luo Xiu had already met Frosa. The main object of his observation this time was "Grand Inquisitor" Baines.

It was an old man with gray-gold eyes and clean, slightly curly short hair. And "old man" is just a description of age, and his appearance and temperament do not show any signs of aging. His cold and resolute face was faintly showing a gloomy and stern expression. It looked frightening and could easily remind people of a lurking pack of wolves.

His occupation in [Supreme] is the "Judge of the Royal Court" with the fourth level of destiny. His level has reached the upper limit of "Fourth Level Destiny", lv.40, and like himself, he has a "Level I Authority" belonging to the [Supreme].

While observing Baines, Luo Xiu also rode the "Golden Pegasus" and came to Baines.

"This should be our first meeting, the church's 'chief priest', His Excellency Luo Xiu Carlos."

"Grand Inquisitor" Baynes sent greetings to Luo Xiuxian. The gloomy and stern expression on his face relaxed and faded, revealing a kind expression like that of an ordinary old man, and he extended his right hand to Luo Xiu.

Although Baines was conveying some kind of goodwill, Luo Xiu always felt that the person opposite him exuded a dangerous aura... But considering that the other person was not a "cursor" who tabooed touching the body, , Luo Xiu still had the same smile on his face, stretched out his hand, and shook Baines's hand tightly.

"Lord Luo Xiu, I have always wanted to visit you in person, but the affairs in the side court are too busy."

Baines smiled and said, "Thank you for taking care of Nelson. After this decisive battle is over, I will definitely hold a celebration banquet in the 'side court'. At that time, I will ask you to come here, Mr. Luo Xiu."

"You are too modest, Mr. Baines."

Luo Xiu also responded with a smile: "Let us focus on the current war first, and then think about the arrangements for the celebration banquet."

Baines nodded. A deep dark light flashed in his eyes, but the light quickly disappeared. At the same time, he released Luo Xiu's hand and said:

"Haha, you are right, Mr. Luo Xiu."

"Let's focus on the current war first."

After that, Luo Xiu and Baines separated, leading the church clergy to stand in front of the military formation on the left.

"Grand Inquisitor" Baines and City Lord Neal launched the final mobilization against the entire army.

After the third patrol was mobilized, the entire army officially marched towards the enemy's line of formation.

Until the enemy's camp is clearly visible, the enemy's army has been prepared and ready in front of their camp group.

Everyone knows it deep down.

——The moment of "decisive battle" is not far away.
