Throne of Magical Arcana

After receiving the scroll of "Shuttle through the night", Lucien wanted to keep smiling, but found that he couldn't smile: "Teacher, the situation will not be so bad, even if Sard breaks his promise, the pope appears, and the gods will explode with all their might." At most, they can directly kill a legendary peak, and they have to guard against the Northern Church and the Dark Council, so it is not bad to be able to extract 17 or 18 legends, and there will be no fewer lords in the council than them."

"If the situation takes a turn for the worse, you have to count the five Holy Spirit priests including Sard, the seven epic knights from the Kingdom of Holm, the Kingdom of Camelot, the Kingdom of Briana, the Principality of Calais, and the coastal corridor of the North Land together. Inside, there are nearly thirty legends, plus the pope in the god-like domain, it is hard to estimate how many legendary magicians who are fighting head-on can escape." Fernando would rather be prepared for the worst from the beginning.

Then he looked at Lucien with a smile in his bright red eyes: "Don't think the Pope is too weak, he is also one of the gods, except for Douglas, Dracula, and Brook. A strong man who has been at the peak of the legend for many years can fight him head-on for a period of time, and other legendary powerhouses may not be able to take a blow from him."

Speaking of this, Fernando, who was either indecent or serious and irritable, sighed in a rare way: "And the power of the divine descent technique is too terrifying. A strong person who locks on to the peak of the legend is an instant kill, no matter you are alone or a few people gathered together Together. If Douglas wants to make the 'Eternal Blazing Sun' reach a similar level, he must at least be promoted to godlike, so the council took the risk of cooperating with Sard before the restoration of the pope's descending spell."

"Otherwise, in ten years' time, who will consume the God's Arrival spell? I think that neither I, Hathaway, Douglas, or Brooke have sacrificed themselves to fulfill everyone's noble character, and if we join forces, we will die together. In addition, in the end What is important is that for the seven epic knights, the pope with or without the divine descent strongly influences their final decision."

"Once they completely fall to us, it's the Pope's turn to weigh the pros and cons. After all, the greatest strength the Southern Church can draw is only equal to ours, and it no longer has an overwhelming advantage. Overdraft must be considered after using the God's Arrival surgery. The tragic victory of most of the remaining Holy Spirit priests and holy knights will be of great benefit to the Dark Parliament and the Northern Church."

Lucien nodded and understood the council's strategy, which is to use this plan to create a favorable situation and let the seven epic knights turn their backs. It is also necessary to face a situation where all-out war is likely to hurt both sides and benefit others.

"Natasha, we have already planned some things, and with Sard's stimulation, we should be sure that the nobles will completely fall to us, and the overall tendency of the nobles will definitely affect the decision of the epic knight. Teacher, it is not as good as us This way..." Lucien made a small suggestion, which was also prepared early in the morning.

Fernando nodded lightly with a serious face: "No matter what the effect is, it is enough to increase the weight. Among the seven epic knights, five of them were secretly drawn by us. Before the situation is favorable, even if they choose to wait and see, it should not be too late. will refuse to listen, and I will communicate with them."

The two deduced the actions, arrangements, and corresponding countermeasures that Sard would have under different purposes.

"If Sard's purpose is really like this, I will notify you as soon as possible. Hey, I hope your response can achieve good results, and you are near Nekser Palace, try to assist Natasha to control Nekser Ser Palace's control of the magical defense array of the entire city is a crucial step in preventing changes, and Morris and other magician members of Holm's royal family will cooperate with you." The Storm Master ordered and arranged for Lucien to go there Not only is it convenient for him to escape, but also because of his special relationship with Natasha, which allows Natasha to cooperate with confidence.

Although Rentat City's overall magical defense array is not as good as the Glorious Cathedral and Nexus Palace, it is also stronger than Alto. After opening it, the controller can gain a lot of advantages, and its control is divided into two relatively independent One is in the Glorious Cathedral, and the other is in the Nexer Palace. The former only needs to wait for Sard to withdraw from the church, and the parliament can take over the control, while the latter depends on Natasha.

Lucien didn't say much, and nodded solemnly in agreement, then asked curiously: "Teacher, why don't we find other forces to cooperate with?"

"This kind of plan must be kept strictly confidential. If we cooperate with the Northern Church and the Dark Council, it is very likely that the news will be leaked in advance and be detected by the Church. Moreover, they will not have many choices. Either wait for us to lose and the winner takes all, or Taking the opportunity to attack the empty interior of the church, it is impossible to join the battlefield rashly. What we need to seize is this time difference, and use the general situation to force the church not to dare to go to war." Fernando slightly explained, "As for other allies, those who are willing to come will discover the changes. It will definitely come, and those who are unwilling to come and seek cooperation in advance will not come."

Even within the Magic Council, only a few magicians with high authority such as members of the Supreme Council and Lucien knew the details, and those who knew about such a thing were limited to a small number of members of the Affairs Committee. The vast majority of arcanists and magic apprentices have no idea that big changes are about to take place, and Natasha on the other side didn't tell anyone except herself, and only led the nobles to increase the barriers against the church and find a new balance expectations.

…………

The fourteenth day of the month of fire, at noon.

On the thirty-fifth floor of the Allinge Magic Tower, voices continued to sound:

"Confirm that Pope Benedict II preached in the holy city of Reims today and has not left."

"Confirm that Saints Melmos, Anastas, Maria and others are near the Pope and have not left."

"Confirm that the leader of the ascetic monks, St. Autin, is in the new space and has not left."

"Confirm that the leader of the ascetic monks, Valenhill, entered the holy city of Lance's confessional to pray and never left."

"Confirm that Baha'u'llah the Judge is at the Headquarters of the Tribunal and has not left."

"Confirm that Belial, the glory of God, is in the northern fortress and has not left."

...

A piece of confirmed information came, allowing the Supreme Jury and Lucien and other magicians who participated in the operation to control the situation.

"It is impossible to confirm the whereabouts of the giants of the referee, St. Anthony the Night Watchman, Brentus the Chase, and the No. 1 Flame of the Night Watch."

"Unable to confirm……"

This kind of information is not only about the Southern Church, but also about the Northern Church and many powerful people in the Dark Mountains. All the personnel placed by the Magic Council for many years came in handy at this moment.

After comprehensive intelligence and confirmation of the situation, Douglas got up from his seat, walked to the front of the Supreme Jury meeting room, and announced solemnly and solemnly:

"The operation has begun, everyone be careful of your own safety."

"The secret is here!" Lucien and the others saluted with their right hands on their foreheads.

………

The capital of the Duchy of Calais, Cux.

"Transfiguration Master" Erica with short flaxen hair came out of the black magic tower like an astrologer, with a strong sense of historical vicissitudes on her body. She is a rare ancient heritage magician in the highest jury. A self-proclaimed historian.

She counted the time, and walked slowly towards the Cux Cathedral with several archmages and high-ranking magicians. At this time, two dragon-scaled horses galloped past beside her, calling loudly on purpose: "Uther Lord Gnar has called for an emergency council of nobles."

Yourcenar is the epic knight "Song of the Evening" of the Principality of Calais.

Erica understands that this is part of the plan, and Yourcenar will not make more moves until the situation changes completely.

A few minutes later, Erica and the others, who looked very slow, actually arrived outside the Cux Cathedral on the other side of the city. A middle-aged priest wearing a white soft hat was watching her peacefully.

"Terence, are you ready for the handover?" Erica asked the "Angel of Wisdom" Terence, Cardinal of the Diocese of Calais.

Terence replied with a smile: "I have sent the cardinals to inspect the counties. There are only some bishops and priests inside, and the magic circle has been closed."

Erica didn't enter rashly, but signaled with her eyes to a summoning archmage next to her, asking him to summon two high-level devils to enter and control the cores of the magic array and the teleportation array respectively.

When there was no problem, several archmages and magicians entered one after another and took control of different areas, while Erica confronted Terence in the square, waiting for Rentat's progress.

…………

The capital of the Kingdom of Buryana, Saliwal.

Brooke, a half-aged gentleman wearing a white hair cover and a black double-breasted frock coat, put his left hand in his pocket and held a short black cane in his right hand. Together with the petite silver-haired lady Chelsea Holt, they boarded the Burr The stairs outside the Listan Cathedral, go straight to the inside, without any other fancy.

He is confident enough that he can kill "Light of Heaven" Beaver inside even if all the magic circles are activated.

When he was about to enter the church gate, he looked back at the palace where King Briana was, and whispered: "I hope Bedrenka and Basol will not make irrational decisions."

"Void Hammer" Bedrenka and "Disaster Knight" Bashor are the epic knights of the Kingdom of Briana.

"They will wait until the situation is almost clear before making a decision." Holt, a silver moon scholar who has been here for a long time, said with a smile.

Brook nodded without saying anything, walked into the church slowly, walked to the third row of seats in front of the cross and sat down, then lowered his head in meditation, waiting for the time to come, just like the most devout believer, the cardinal preaching above He had no idea that the terrifying demon ranked eighth in the purification sequence was right in front of him.

…………

Hercules in the Northern Coastal Corridor and Vicente in the Camelot Kingdom were in similar situations to Erica. They successfully took over the cathedral and controlled the teleportation point. The epics in these countries and regions The knights all demanded an emergency noble meeting like Yourcenar did.

Rentat, outside the Glorious Cathedral.

Fernando, who temporarily added the help of "absolute defense" Atuman, a legendary magician, led a dozen archmages and high-level magicians to wait for Sard's arrival.

Without making them wait for a long time, Sard, who looked like an ordinary old man, left the Glory Cathedral with ease and integrity.
