Chapter 553: Don’t be too Arrogant
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Three days passed in a flash!
Early in the morning, this day, while the sky was still gradually being lit up, the Pope had already arrived at the grand hall and had ordered his guards to get Elder Wilbur to him. His eyes were red and bloodshot. It was as if he had not slept the entire night in his excitent.
He beca extrely excited every ti he thought about being able to completely destroy the Dark Association and Magical Beast Territory, then becoming the unparalleled faction within the Tailun Continent!
He had put up with all the events that happened in the past, waiting for this day!
“Pope!” Elder Wilbur, who was dressed in a black robe, walked into the hall quickly, his eyes also bloodshot. However, unlike the Pope who had been so excited that he could not sleep, his eyes were bloodshot because he had been working through the night; He had not stopped the entire night, being imnsely busy!
“Wilbur, how are the preparations coming along?” The Pope took a few deep breaths, trying his best to calm down.
“Pope, the Guardian Army has completed its preparations and can set off at any ti.” Wilbur replied to the Pope loudly, then hesitated for a mont before saying, “Pope, there should not be too much of a problem annihilating the Dark Association and Magical Beast Territory. But it is exterminating the other major factions like the Borg family and Bellimore family too...”
Unlike the spirited Pope, Wilbur, despite being excited, also had a strong sense of unease. The Pope’s plan this ti around was too insane. He not only wanted to bathe the Dark Association and Magical Beast Territory in blood, but he was also not going to let the other major factions like the Borg family and Bellimore family off. He had mobilized every troop in the Church. If any accidents were to happen, there was a great possibility that they would be dragged into a battle on many fronts, facing the manic retaliation of the various factions.
If the plan was to succeed, the Church would undoubtedly be able to claim the entire Tailun Continent as their own, with no other factions left to fight back against them. However, if the plan was to fail, the outco would be disastrous!
“Hmph, what are you afraid of!” The Pope understood Wilbur’s worries, but grunted dismissively, “In the face of a team of twelve-winged angels, all of the Divine-level Experts on the Tailun Continent would not be a match even if they worked together. That old fool Raymond is no exception. Even without the Guardian Army, just the twelve Great Angels are enough to clear off any obstacles!”
He had spent a great deal of effort to summon the main bodies of the Great Angels. The Pope will never miss such a great opportunity! If ti permits, he even wanted to get the Angel Battle Squad to conquer the vast ocean, firmly establishing his control over the entire continent.
Lording over the entire continent!
That was the greatest dream in his life!
“Pope, I am not worried about the rest of the people. Even if the three head honchos of the Dark Association were not injured, they are not a match for a Great Twelve-winged Angel even if they fought together, but...” Wilbur looked extrely worried, “Sir Raymond is the most mysterious powerhouse in the Tailun Continent, his abilities deep beyond comprehension. He had been on the continent longer than the Church has been. No one knows just how powerful he truly is, if...”
Looking at the Pope who was authoritative even if he wasn’t angry, Wilbur imdiately cut himself off, not daring to continue his sentence. As the able assistant of the Pope, he was clear of the other party’s temper and personality.
“That’s right, that old fool Raymond is very powerful, and we are not a match for him even if we took him on together, but...” Looking at the worried Wilbur, the Pope let out a cold smile, “But all he has is that desolate Fire God Mountain and no devotees. Without the support of faith, he cannot even beco the lowest level of a powerhouse with a Divine Duty. His abilities, at the very most, are at the peak of a High-level Deity. How is he going to fight against the Angel Battle Squad?”
“Pope, could Sir Raymond be a legendary...” Wilbur had wanted to say a few more words, worried that Raymond was an unparalleled fighter ntioned in the ancient records, a legendary powerful fighter that did not require the support of faith. However, seeing the impatient Pope, he did not dare continue speaking.
No one can stop sothing the Pope has decided on.
In theory, as long as all of the elders in the Templars were to object in unison, they would be able to stop the insanity of the Pope. However, it was difficult, or even impossible, to gather all of the elders in such a short amount of ti, much less get all of the elders to object to the plan unanimously. So of the elders had long stopped caring about the material world, while others had gone to other dinsions through the Space Cracks. Who could stop the stubborn Pope?
“Wilbur, you don’t have to say more. All you have to do is guarantee that the Teleportation Formations are built near the critical areas of the other major factions!” The Pope was spirited. He waved his hand and said with determination, “Relay my orders, we set off four hours later to bathe the Magical Beast Territory in blood!”
“Yes, Pope!” Wilbur bowed to pay his respects, then left quickly. Now that it has co to this, all he could do was to pray to God to bless the Church!
Under the orders of the Pope, the war machines of the Church operated quickly. Teams of heavily armored knights and Spellcasters wielding magical staffs quickly gathered in the massive Victory Plaza in the Holy City. More and more devotees gathered to witness the commotion. Soon, the entire Holy City erupted in commotion.
“I heard that the Pope is prepared to eradicate the Dark Association and Magical Beast Territory completely, is that true?” A small-ti rchant asked a bearded knight beside him softly, revealing the news he had gotten wind of just now.
“Hehe, it’s high-ti we annihilate those cultists, don’t let anyone of them go!” The bearded bloke gripped the sharp weapon in his hand tightly. His blood boiled as he looked at the awe-inspiring army in Victory Plaza, wanting to enter the fray himself.
“I heard that the Great Demon King in the Magical Beast Territory is even stronger than the three head honchos of the Dark Association. He is not only extrely powerful, but he is also brutal and rciless, what if...”
“Tsk, what are you afraid of. I heard that three days ago, twelve Great Twelve-winged Angels had descended unto the Holy City to help us completely eradicate all of the cultists in the Tailun Continent!”
“That’s right. It’s twelve Great Twelve-winged Angels. Who in the Tailun Continent is a match for them?”
...
The devotees were extrely confident in the Church’s army. Looking at the Guardian Army about to set off, each one of them beca more excited than the last. In their eyes, a Great Twelve-winged Angel was an unparalleled existence. With twelve Great Twelve-winged Angels, the Church will undoubtedly achieve victory!
Whoosh...
Just as the devotees were piling into Victory Plaza and making the area incredibly packed, a Dark Dragon suddenly appeared silently from the forest outside the city, on its back a withered black-robed man. The black-robed man toiled around on the ground for a mont, and five Teleportation Formations rapidly appeared. After a white light flashed, a few powerful fighters with ice-cold expressions appeared, taking to the skies.
“Oh!”
Looking up to see Raymond and the rest of the experts suddenly appear, the Pope, who was about to order the army to set off, was shocked. He did not think that the three head honchos of the Dark Association, Yang Ling, and the rest of the group had arrived at the Holy City together with the God of Fire Raymond first when he was just about to set off to bathe the Dark Association and Magical Beast Territory in blood.
“Pope, the Graveyard of Deities and Demons is about to open. Subjecting the Tailun Continent to any instability now will not benefit anyone.” With Raymond’s signal, the Golden Lion Barker, who used to be on good terms with the Church, stepped forward to diate, pausing for a mont before continuing, “We ca today in the hopes of a reconciliation between us two parties and negotiate a ceasefire agreent!”
“Hahaha, reconciliation?” The Pope erupted in laughter. His expression then changed, clenching his teeth as he said, “It’s too late for any reconciliation now! The Tailun Continent is the continent of the Church, and all of the cultists should go and die. Even a High-level Deity has to die!”
After understanding the intentions of Raymond and the group, the Pope laughed arrogantly!
Originally, he had been a little worried, seeing that the other party had suddenly appeared. He was worried that the other factions would take the initiative to attack, leading their army to surround the Holy City. After understanding the intentions of the other party and having not sensed any ambushing troops around the Holy City, he imdiately heaved a sigh of relief. He was elated!
The three head honchos of the Dark Association, Yang Ling, and the rest of the group could not have co at a better ti. It saves the army of the Church the ti to attack them one by one, preventing the other factions from hiding after receiving news of the attack! In front of the Angel Battle Squad made out of Great Twelve-winged Angels, Yang Ling and the rest of the group would not be a match for them even if they attacked together! Even the God of Fire Raymond might not be able to save himself!
He had no fear!
Seeing the line of Great Twelve-winged Angels behind the Pope, then looking at the arrogant Pope, Raymond said calmly, “Pope, are you sure that there’s no chance or need to reconcile our differences?”
“Hehe, Sir Raymond, if you are willing to join the Church and go through God’s Judgent, there might be so leeway for discussion. At the very least, you can leave a few of your followers in the Fire God Mountain alive, hahaha!” The Pope laughed loudly, shooting a look of hatred at the God of Fire Raymond.
Over the millennia, Raymond had interfered with the Church’s expansion many tis. The Pope had long seen the old fool as a thorn in his flesh. He had no choice but to tolerate it in the past due to his lack of strength. Now that he had the backing of Great Twelve-winged Angels, he wanted desperately to tear Raymond to pieces alive.
God’s Judgent?
A cold gleam flashed past Raymond’s eyes. Originally, he had wanted to give the Pope a chance. However, it now looks like there’s no need for that. If he did not give fearless, arrogant fools like that a harsh punishnt, they would never learn what it ans to be asking for death!
“You are the God of Fire Raymond?” The twelve-winged Angel Leader Boykins glanced at the unimpressive-looking Raymond and ascertained that he had never seen him in his life. He said coldly, “In the history of the City Amongst the Clouds, there has never been a precedent of reconciliation with the cultists, not in the past, not now, not in the future. Anybody who wants to hinder us from controlling the tunnel leading to the Graveyard of Deities and Demons in the Tailun Continent will all et the sa end, whether they are cultists or not. And that is death!”
Originally, Boykins had the faint feeling that he had heard of the na ‘Raymond’ sowhere in the past, making him a little uneasy. Now, after seeing the unimpressive-looking Raymond, he finally felt more at ease. Judging from the ripples of energy coming from within Raymond’s body, his abilities were only at the peak of a High-level Deity. They would be able to kill even ten of him, much less him alone!
Control the tunnel leading to the Graveyard of Deities and Demons in the Tailun Continent?
Hearing the twelve-winged Angel Leader Boykins say this, Raymond’s expression turned even more ice-cold. If he had just been intending to punish the arrogant Pope just now, he now had true killing intent. He could tolerate the Church becoming the strongest faction in the Tailun Continent, but he would definitely not allow the despicable City Amongst the Clouds to pull the flas of war from the Graveyard of Deities and Demons into the Tailun Continent!
