The location where the main world is threatened this time is in the northeast of the Goddess Sea. It has not yet entered the territory of Saint Anthony and can be accessed directly by the river.
The Goddess Sea has extremely high value in the central circle of the entire main world, and its contribution to transportation, fishery, and salt industry is not small.
Even before the door opened this time, the Church of Light had deployed thirty teams here. It was also the first time since the last Three Realms War that so many divine warriors were mobilized outside the territory of Saint Anthony.
Even because the number of transfers was too large, this group of divine warriors also included senior priests from two teams of relief agencies.
The Bright Church's relief center and inquisition are units at the same level. The agencies under its jurisdiction are mainly responsible for relief work in various places and are directly responsible to the archbishop to reduce the losses caused by corruption by local members.
The high priests in the relief center do not have power armor-like weapons like the divine warriors and adjudicators. They use special scepters to strengthen their magical skills and can use [Holy Light Resurrection]. This is only effective for people with light magical factors. of divine magic.
Most people who can reach the level of senior priests have the opportunity to become god warriors, and those who are kicked off the team of god warriors cannot return to the relief center. They will usually be transferred to the demon hunting sequence (periphery) and the trial center, resulting in The number of people in this sequence is very small, less than one-twentieth of the divine warriors.
The small number naturally requires additional protection. The senior priest's team is a group of four, including a senior priest, two light knights, and a guidance priest. The latter has no direct combat power and mainly masters medical spells and divine arts. , the level is not higher than the fourth ring.
Around the senior pastor, the Church of Light consolidated and expanded local churches in the east and west directions of the prophecy to facilitate the provision of logistical services to the warriors of God.
But something is not right when the world door opens.
After everyone waited for more than ten days, there were only a few scattered demons, and the largest group only contained a thousand little demons.
Maybe there was something wrong with the demons, or maybe it was a problem in the penal colony. After the intelligence was passed on, I received instructions from the archbishop not long after, asking the divine warriors to try to enter the penal colony to explore.
Exploration requires teams of three to look out for each other.
When operating in groups, there will be a significant imbalance in the number of divine warriors at the three levels of star, sky, and light.
Of the 30 teams transferred to the door this time, there are 20 light teams, 7 empty teams, and star teams only account for one-tenth. This is a special arrangement, otherwise the actual proportion of star teams would be even lower.
From a tactical level, when the God Warriors operate on a large scale, the main tactical force becomes the light squad. They have specialized protection teams, support teams, assault teams, etc. When cooperating with senior teams, they use tactical tactics with superior capabilities. It won't hold you back.
The Star Squad was high-level, but they were not allowed to stay behind. Instead, just like when the "defect" was activated in the early stages, the Star Squad took the lead in contacting the danger.
Each of the three star squads led two light squads to take turns to test and investigate the exile, while the other divine warriors stayed at home, waiting for further intelligence analysis results.
The first group went in for three days and brought back the first wave of news.
The local area seems to have been completely controlled by the demons, but no war cluster has formed.
The topography of the penal colony is very strange. It seems to be a floating island floating in the sky. In order to ensure that the first wave of news is transmitted back in time, the situation below the floating island has not been checked yet.
What worries the God Warriors the most is that there is a certain force "observing" them.
"They used an iron bird to observe, and our armed forces detected someone on it."
"Iron Bird?"
"It's a metal shell anyway, and the magic power leaking out of it doesn't look like a flying spell."
"Is he a mixed-race from the penal colony? Have you tried to contact him?"
"I don't know if they are hybrids. I have tried to get close. They are very sensitive and extremely fast. It is difficult for us to get within a mile."
"...You guys take a rest first, and we'll go over and take a closer look."
The handover was completed and the second batch went in, but they had bad luck.
The "access control" in the area of influence of the temporary door has changed (see Chapter 506). The second team of divine warriors moved according to the route recorded by the previous team, and there were three people halfway.
After appearing, they fell into the "Realm of Silence". In order to recover their teammates, they struggled for several days to get out of it, without even going to the place of exile.
It was barely a failure, but at least the situation in the ancient books was confirmed, giving the new generation of divine warriors a clear understanding.
When the third team entered, they returned to the exploration method using magic as a clue. They successfully arrived at the exile place again, and this time they tried to explore the sky, under the floating island and other floating islands.
There was nothing wrong with the sky, and no air layer with particularly abnormal temperature, magic power, or composition was found.
It was very dangerous below the floating island. The Star Team descended to a height of about two miles below the clouds, and the God Warrior Arms began various warnings, such as the ambient temperature was too high and the respiratory support gas was insufficient. After using magic and small magic to forcefully explore the ground for another two miles, I still couldn't see the ground or the ocean, so I had to give up.
Checking the two floating islands around the temporary gate, the demons were roughly distributed. There were occasionally intermediate demons. Only one high-level demon was seen in two days and was executed on the spot.
After the basic situation is clear, the scale of the operation will be expanded a bit, and it will be changed to a combination of two teams, Zim Team 1, Sky Team 1, and Light Team 4, to act together.
The advanced magical skills mastered by the Star Team can kill ordinary demons by the thousands at a certain density. However, based on previous experience, the endurance of just two or three teams cannot withstand the number of demons. Considering this As we get closer to the demon world, the possibility of high-level demons appearing in groups further increases, and we must be more cautious.
The important task after the fourth batch arrived at the exile place was to locate the Demon Realm Gate.
The Church of Light, which has continuous historical records, knows that there should be only one Demon Realm Gate in the exile at the current stage, and this gate should be the largest Demon Realm Gate during the entire Three Realms War.
Since this wave of demons is not taking the initiative, and the location of the main world is conducive to the actions of the Church of Light, we must take advantage of the opportunity.
This job is easier said than done.
The penal colony is full of demons, and the natural magic power concentration is very high, which makes some long-range reconnaissance methods very ineffective.
In terms of visual reconnaissance, the Star Team can even fly for two or three hours based on its own abilities. However, the natural charging of the God Warrior's weapons takes several days. Using all the magic power on flying will cause big problems when encountering conditions.
Everyone can only use island hopping, check floating islands one by one, and guess the possible direction of the Demon Realm Gate based on the distribution of demons.
Especially during this process, there are always people watching from high altitude, which makes people very uncomfortable.
"Boss, let's knock them down, they're so annoying!"
Indeed, the iron bird above the head makes a lot of noise when flying, especially when accelerating, it is noisy from two miles away.
But you can't fight. The two sides have been observing each other for so long, and they can basically run away and rule out the possibility that the other party is a demon.
"Don't you remember the papal decree?"
"Well... pretend I didn't say it."
The Church of Light is the main persecutor of mixed-bloods in the main world, but it is different when they come to the exile. Once mixed-bloods drive them crazy, they will turn to the side of the demons every minute. This is a situation that the church does not want to face.
According to the ancient records in the church, the upper limit of the combat power of a mixed-race individual in the exile is not high, and the so-called "god" in the local area can reach the level of a pseudo-god, which is at most equivalent to a descendant formed from a basic quality container, but aside from the pseudo-god, The average strength of the ordinary mixed-bloods in the exile is much higher than that of the demons. After all, the demons mostly win with the number of low-level demons. On average, they are not much stronger than ordinary farmers.
This team spent a few days in the exile place to locate the general direction of the Demon Realm Gate. Because the density of demons on the local floating islands was too exaggerated, they had no choice but to go back first.
