Age of Adepts

With the death of the Golden Knight, the resistance of Hakans City came to an abrupt end.

Without the restraint of the strong ones of the same rank, no matter how many remaining 1st and 2nd rank paladins are in vain. At the level of Tier 3, it is no longer a simple stacking amount that can be fought against.

The disabled paladins also seemed to realize that the situation was over, and reluctantly regrouped and retreated to the Holy Light Chapel, hoping to use the power of the terrain to resist the attack of the terrible wizard. It's a pity that their ideas are good, but the reality is always crueler than the coldest horror novel.

After killing the golden knight, Thunder Dragon Arms rushed into the sky with a cheer, turned around and went straight to the most extravagant and most luxurious mansion in the city after a short inspection. Its time is running out, and it is an extremely professional and challenging job to rob the mansions of the upper class in the city and the city's public treasure house against the clock.

So, it's not going to waste any time!

As for the magnificent Holy Light Chapel that is close in front of you, it obviously belongs to some kind of mysterious building with religious overtones. To rob a place like this, you need to kill too many mindless guards, not to mention a waste of time, I am afraid that most of the loot you can get are some ancient books, the bones of a certain church celebrity, or souvenirs such as clothing and armor.

These things may have a strong commemorative significance for church members, but for the Dragon Clan who only like golden and shiny treasures, they are too old-fashioned. If you return to the Lance plane with such a 'treasure', you will be ridiculed by all the dragons.

Therefore, Ames rushed to the city lord's mansion in the distance without even looking at the Holy Light Chapel.

It is rare for Yanhu Xindar to come to the alien plane to "play" for a while, so naturally he does not intend to return empty-handed. After glancing at the whereabouts of the thunder dragon, it immediately flew straight to the business district of Hakans City.

There must be some rare treasures that are not found elsewhere!

In a blink of an eye, only the scarred elemental magic weapon and Greem, who turned into a tall fireman, were left in the arena. And the corpses of paladins all over the place.

Under Greem's command, the elemental magic weapon roared, and rushed to the Holy Light Chapel after the retreating paladins. Greem, on the other hand, walked slowly in front of the wreckage of the third-tier golden knight with leisurely steps.

The opponent's body had already been terribly beaten by the terrifying attack, and Greem's last meteor blast blew it into pieces. The sacred armor on the body surface has been distorted and deformed, and the exposed skin is scorched black, and the surface has been completely carbonized.

Greem leaned down and stared at the remnant body carefully, his black pupils gleamed with blue light, constantly scanning the situation inside. As for the barrier of flames, it has already been opened, cutting off the possibility of the Golden Knight's soul escaping.

The strange ray of holy light that was missed last time, after the analysis of the chip, the cause lies in the pure and rich holy light, as well as the powerful and tenacious soul. The two complement each other and are indispensable!

Seriously speaking, the holy light that the paladins believe in is actually the unswerving knight faith in their hearts!

It's just that these knights in the Envik plane have found a visible and tangible carrier for their illusory beliefs, that is pure light... They use light to represent the purity of their hearts, and they use light to express paint a bright future.

And this is exactly a kind of primitive belief in a state of ignorance and chaos!

Light is originally a kind of basic energy that is ubiquitous in the plane world, ignorant and unknowing, ordinary. But when many paladins place their so-called 'justice', 'wiseness', 'faith', and 'hope' on the light, then the light is no longer the original 'light'.

In the plane world, faith itself is a powerful force. And the light, which is the carrier of the paladin's belief, has since become extraordinary and become more sacred and powerful.

Taking light without mind and consciousness as their source of belief, perhaps wizards will feel contemptuous and ridiculed at the ignorance and ignorance of paladins. However, the wizards could not deny that the paladins did gain power from the 'Holy Light' and continued the inheritance.

From this aspect, this group of paladins actually live a purer and more real life than the magicians in the world of the gods!

After all, there is no deity who is hungry for the power of faith riding on their heads, and there is no strict and rigid dogma that restricts their every move.

Relying on their pious beliefs and their daily precepts and deeds, the paladins have also deeply penetrated the knight's beliefs into the rules of light. Therefore, from a certain point of view, the light of the Envik plane is indeed very different from the rules of light in the wizarding world.

And with the help of the power of the holy light, the paladins also passed on the knight's faith to the laws of the plane. In the plane of Envik, no matter where you were born or what race you came from, as long as you recognize the code of faith of the paladins from the depths of your body, mind and soul, you can perceive the existence of the Holy Light through the power of the plane's laws.

As for Greem, who has traveled to two worlds with plane beliefs, he has never found any "remnants of faith" like holy light after killing those believers of the gods. According to Greem's estimation, the main reason is that those believers have 'gods' on them!

The imprint of the gods has already been deeply imprinted in the depths of their souls, so once they die, under the guidance of the laws of the plane, they will either return to the mother river of souls, or enter the kingdom of the gods through channels. Either way, it is impossible to leave the 'thing' formed by the fusion of this belief and soul on the material plane.

In the kingdom of the gods, this kind of guy who has a strong and tough soul and can still put his soul consciousness on the power of faith after death is often called a heroic spirit or a holy spirit.

In short, they are all weird guys whose souls are unwilling to perish, and continue to wander on the remaining power!

For such existences, the gods of course couldn't wait to guide them into their own kingdom, shape them with divine power, and continue to serve the gods in the kingdom of gods. But in the plane of Envik, the holy light that the paladins believe in has no self-awareness, so they will not take the initiative to guide the paladin spirits or holy spirits after death to return to the source of faith.

That's why the weird scene where the strange 'holy light' lingers on appears!

And this undoubtedly made it possible for Greem to intercept the 'Holy Light' halfway.

However, today is obviously different from the last time. When Greem carefully incinerated the golden knight's body, the 'holy light' that was stronger than the silver knight unexpectedly began to collide with the flame barrier frequently. It seems that some powerful force is calling it, and it can't wait to return.

Greem raised his head and looked at the direction in which the 'Holy Light' wanted to escape. What he saw was the majestic Holy Light Chapel at the end of the road.

Holy Light Chapel?

Greem pondered slightly.

According to the memory fragments he extracted from the minds of the natives of the plane, the Holy Light Chapel is not only a living and training place for the paladins, but also a burial place for the paladins who died in battle. Perhaps in terms of function, it also played the role of those large and small temples in the world of the gods.

As a knowledgeable wizard, although Greem is not good at manipulating souls, he also knows seven or eight ways to absorb and store souls.

He took out a fist-sized, crystal-clear strange crystal ball, and engraved more than a dozen witchcraft runes with different functions on it one after another. These runes are also strange to say. At the beginning of engraving and drawing, each one was as bright as the day, and the magic power was shining. But as they eroded on the surface of the crystal ball one by one, they became dark and obscure, and the existence of magic power could hardly be felt.

After the soul-gathering crystal was finished, Greem grabbed it and shook it slightly towards the holy light. Under the pull of a strange force, the holy light trembled, and then he was sucked into the inner space by the crystal ball unwillingly. .

Come on, I got what I wanted!

After absorbing the remaining 'holy light' of the third-level golden knight, Greem straightened up and looked at the devastated battlefield.

Around him, there were hundreds of paladin corpses lying in disorder.

Greem smiled slightly, tied the Soul Gathering Crystal around his waist with a silver chain, and then strode forward. And as he strode forward, a soundless and transparent fire source swept away in all directions, instantly incinerating these hundreds of corpses into pieces of fly ash.

And among the ashes of the ashes, a series of bright or dark strange 'holy lights' emerged, and then they floated towards Greem's waist like swallows returning to the forest, silently blending into the soul gathering Among the crystals.

Of the 129 corpses in total, only 72 holy lights were recovered. For the rest, either their souls have been completely broken, or their belief in the Holy Light is not pure enough. In short, not all paladins can condense the 'holy light' after death!

And when Greem was slowly 'collecting' the spoils here, the blood from the fighting in the Holy Light Chapel in the distance flowed into rivers, and corpses lay everywhere.

The surviving paladins retreated to the chapel, using the gate of the temple as a barrier, took out their solid shields, and resisted the mad attack of the elemental magic weapons. Of course, these little ones who are only Tier 1 or Tier 2 cannot be the opponents of the elemental magic equipment, but their strength is twisted together to form a strange resonance of the holy light, which cannot be easily broken by the elemental magic equipment that lacks the means to attack.

Therefore, the two sides fought bloodily at the gate of the Holy Light Chapel.

Although the elemental magic weapon kept slaughtering low-level paladins, the 'ants' standing in front of it were still densely packed and could not be killed.

It's too slow, I can't wait...

After cleaning up the battlefield, Greem immediately strode towards the Chapel of Holy Light. While walking forward, he casually gathered violent fireballs and threw them into the crowd.

Without the involvement of opponents of the same level, these little guys in front of him are a group of harmless ants in front of his 6-meter-tall flame body. With the wild bombardment of the fireball, twenty or thirty paladins fell in a pool of smoke and blood in an instant.

If it wasn't for the concern that the power of sorcery attacks would affect the harvest of the 'Holy Light', the paladins in front of him really weren't worthy of Greem's serious attention.

Too weak!

In the plane world, being weak is a sin in itself, and must be washed away with blood and fire.

And this is exactly the tradition that wizards in the wizarding world have always upheld!

Nothing to do with justice...
