The Pope looked up together with the seven saints.
I saw those light groups spreading out, revealing their true appearance.
"Human? No, not!"
The pope squinted and recognized it carefully.
Among the light groups are humanoid monsters.
The reason why we can be sure that they are not human is mainly because their bodies are the same as humans, but their faces have no facial features.
The power of the elements surrounds them, gathering with ease as they move.
The powerful ten elements scattered from the sky to the land, causing the entire city to billow with smoke.
Great Saint Hut's expression also changed.
He was a powerful warrior with lots of combat experience, and he quickly saw the key.
"Their control over elements is several times stronger than that of Five Elements professionals!" he roared.
"They are like masters of the elements." Cardinal Kidd also said.
In the sky, faceless monsters emitted different elemental auras.
Every monster can perfectly control an element.
——Demon.
The demons of the Ice Hell have completed their assembly and begun to attack the city.
The entire capital of the Holy Kingdom is their target.
The cathedral was attacked first because the church complex was majestic and eye-catching, attracting more than a dozen light groups.
"Mobilize all professionals and lead the battle, quickly!" the Pope ordered loudly.
The Seven Saints commanded their men to face the monster in the sky.
Almost instantly, the battle entered its most brutal stage.
Demons can perfectly manipulate elements, and their attack power is several times that of ordinary human professionals.
They can also fly.
All demons are flying in the sky, and ordinary professionals cannot attack them at all.
The Holy Cult dispatched all mobile armors.
But these mobile armors of the Holy Religion are already mechanical weapons that are behind the times.
There are far more demons than mobile armors.
They fly freely and attack at will.
The entire Crusaders were in a bitter fight.
In just a few dozen minutes of fighting, the demon gradually gained the upper hand.
They are approaching the Holy Land Cathedral.
The Pope flew into the sky and fought in person, killing seven or eight demons in one fell swoop.
This scene angered all the demons.
Hundreds of demons gathered together and erupted into volleys of elemental fire.
The entire cathedral was razed to the ground.
Even the powerful Pope does not dare to face such a terrifying attack.
She is alone.
Using the Escape card, the Pope temporarily avoided the edge.
The battle continues.
The demons couldn't find a target, so they released their anger on other people who resisted.
Time passes gradually.
After thousands of Crusaders died and two saints were sacrificed, the Pope still hid in the religious hideout.
She didn't take action again.
She hid silently and carefully observed the scene in the sky.
"The demon spirit tribe? These seem to be existences from the previous era, but they still have the aura of the dead souls on them. It seems that they really crawled out of hell." She murmured.
Now I can't go to Kirishima World. If I can't hold on here, I really have no choice but to wander into the universe or other worlds.
The Great Saint Hutt was covered in blood and ran up to report: "We have used various methods, but their number is increasing, and it is extremely difficult for us to kill them."
The Pope looked to the sky.
The power of the devil's elemental attacks are superimposed on each other.
As their number continues to increase, hundreds of groups of elemental energy mix together to form extremely powerful magic attacks.
Even she couldn't resist such an attack.
The church completely collapsed.
The light from the sky poured down through the veil and fell on the Pope's face.
She suddenly laughed.
These days, she has been wandering on the ocean of corpses, holding her breath.
Unexpectedly, I would be forced into such a situation after returning.
There is no way to retreat.
fed up.
"Hurt, are you afraid of death?" the Pope asked.
"I am willing to sacrifice everything for the Holy Religion." Hurt said.
"For the Holy Religion, why not for me?" The Pope was slightly disappointed.
Hutt was stunned and said: "For you and the Holy Religion, this is the same."
The Pope was silent for a moment and then ordered: "Go and find Ivan the Penancer."
Hurt noticed something and said: "Ivan is a guy with insufficient brains. If anything happens, please tell me directly. I am willing to sacrifice everything for the Holy Religion."
"No, this next task is not suitable for you. Go find Ivan, immediately."
"...As ordered." Hutt had to respond.
Ivan the Penance soon came to the Pope.
"Hutt, you go and preside over the battle." The Pope ordered.
"Yes." Hutt retreated.
Before leaving, he glanced at his brother worriedly.
"Please give me your orders." Ivan knelt on one knee and said.
The Pope walked up to him step by step and murmured: "Ivan, you are an ascetic, and your soul is purer than anyone else, so I will give you a weapon."
She asked: "Now I ask you, are you willing to fight for me?"
"I do!"
Ivan said loudly and excitedly.
He remembered, however, that the Pope had given Cardinal Kidd a magical whip.
It is very strange that the whip can become void together with Kidd.
Now, at this critical moment, the Pope is finally giving himself weapons.
Ivan was thinking when a card suddenly appeared in front of him.
On the face of the card is a dark whirlpool.
In the center of the vortex, a hand stretched out, as if politely seeking a handshake.
But after taking a second look, I felt that this hand had a hint of crazy emotion.
- Like a drowning man trying to grab whatever he can.
"Take it," the Pope said.
Ivan hesitated.
A bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart.
"Here, this is an order," the pope urged.
"Yes." Ivan gritted his teeth and took the card.
When the Pope saw him taking the card, he took a few steps back.
She stared at Ivan quietly, speaking with fear and a hint of sadness: "Don't blame me, don't blame me, I have no way out."
A look of confusion appeared on Ivan's face and he said: "Your Holiness..."
Perhaps because the other party was about to die, the Pope rarely said a few more words.
"Yes, after using this contract card, I don't know what will happen next, but I don't want to experience endless wandering anymore. You have to be considerate of me."
After hearing these inexplicable words, Ivan became even more confused.
He was about to ask something when he saw the card in his hand changed.
A huge hand stretched out from the cards, grabbed him, and pulled him in.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
Intermittent miserable wails.
Creepy chewing sounds.
The two hellish sounds overlap, giving people the illusion that a person is being slowly eaten.
After a moment, a contented sigh sounded from the card.
"Well... with the pure soul purified by hard training and the bloody and cruel killing intent, it is a rare delicacy even in the nine levels of purgatory."
"Isa, you are finally willing to sign a contract with me, and you also gave me such a delicious contract gift. I am very satisfied."
The Pope, or Isa, bowed respectfully and responded: "As long as you are satisfied."
"Now that the contract has been established, tell me your request." The voice asked.
"I will hold your flag and prevent a war in your name." Isa said.
"Ah, I allow such a simple thing." The voice said lazily.
