In terms of power, we have to admit the power of the Holy See. It is no wonder that at the beginning, all the cities pinned their hopes against the undead army on the Holy See.
Sometimes, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
How to put it, the three most powerful forces in the world now, Abraham's undead army, a group of desperate people, will seek refuge with Abraham even if they die. The cohesion that unites them because they have given up the best of everything can be said. Just imagine.
Then there is the Holy See, which has been operating for hundreds of years and has a terrifyingly stable belief. In addition, the first generation of Popes obtained treasures from the remains of the Immortal that could even annex the entire earth. Its power is beyond doubt.
On the contrary, Shen Yan and his alliance are the weakest among the three major forces, even though they have many cities. However, because of this, the new construction, the dispersion of forces, etc., a slight internal problem may cause turmoil.
But now this weakest force has to face Abraham's undead army and the Holy See at the same time.
Shen Yan had no other choice. He looked at the flames of war and gunpowder smoke igniting in the Emerald Forest. The beautiful forest that the Spirit Race had only cultivated since the Second Age was burning in the fire and seemed to be destroyed in an instant. .
The thick smoke from the forest rose into the sky and blew into the mercenary city, turning this city that had never been afraid of anything into a city of gray fog, with a pungent smell in the nose.
Along with the thick smoke came the huge army of the Holy See.
The rumble of footsteps made the mercenary city tremble.
The city of mercenaries is also very strange. We usually see a lot of disorder and chaos in it, but now that foreign enemies are attacking, people from various mercenary groups have taken up their weapons on their own initiative and stood on the city wall.
This made Shen Yan full of surprise. Maybe the Mercenary City was not that far away from the Brahma Emperor City, but there were other reasons for not respecting the god of the Holy See and not being influenced by the Holy See.
On the city wall, everyone's expressions were hard. They were trembling and facing the cold and cruel war that was about to come. The mercenary song that was most often sung by people in the mercenary city rang out.
"We are mercenaries, free mercenaries. Except for the heroic spirits of our ancestors, nothing can make us surrender..."
"We would rather crawl forward in the darkness than be humbled and enslaved. We would rather be trapped in poverty than succumb to the enemy's force. The sword cannot force our souls who yearn for freedom..."
"We will show our resolve to the enemy with courage and blood."
In the past, when Shen Yan listened to the mercenaries humming this song, he could always feel the joy in their hearts, but now, hearing it in his ears was a completely different feeling.
Tragic and... decisive.
Shen Yan and Father Dong also came to the city wall. Today, the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group cannot maintain its business with peace of mind, and it is estimated that there will not be many customers.
Dad Dong: "You know that the Holy See is so powerful. In the past, the Mercenary City still didn't pay much attention to them, and even verbally abused them without any scruples. Why didn't the Holy See take action against the Mercenary City?"
This is also Shen Yan's doubt. Compared with the Holy See, the strength of the Mercenary City is too different. With the Holy See's behavior, how could it be possible that the Holy See did not take action against the Mercenary City? It only sent a Mrs. Hailis to try to use The conspiracy is secretly usurping the power of the mercenary city.
Dad Dong: "Everyone in the mainland knows that under our mercenary city is a dangerous place, and the legend there is
It is said that it is full of unknowns and disasters, and the existence of our mercenary city just suppressed this dangerous place. "
"To attack us would be to unleash immeasurable evil on the evil land."
"Only the devil will try his best to unleash evil."
Shen Yan understood what Mr. Dong meant. In the past, in order to expand, the Holy See worked hard to create a cloak of hypocrisy and release evil. Naturally, they did not dare to do it openly.
But now, the more fundamental desires and desires of the Holy See outweigh all previous concerns.
In the face of their desire, their previous worries are worthless, and they will capture the mercenary city without hesitation.
It can only be said that because of the increase in strength of the Holy See, it is no longer the same Holy See that had too many worries. The expansion of inner self-confidence and the strengthening of desires have made them crazy to the point of using all possible means.
All the forbearance and secret development in the past may have been for this moment. The success of the Holy See is not without reason.
Shen Yan knew some of the history of the mercenary city, and also knew a little about the underground dangerous place. For example, the old wizard Uther had an accident in the underground dangerous place and was trapped for more than a hundred years. In the earth, a method of immortality was found to transform into an abnormal life form.
This is a mysterious ruins full of secrets that no one dares to set foot on.
In any case, the Holy See is no longer afraid of being a presence that releases evil in the eyes of everyone. Perhaps they have already thought of another excuse to deceive the world.
The troops were approaching the city, and it was the first time for Shen Yan to see such a scene that made it difficult to breathe in reality.
The bright armor seemed to carry justice and light, but the people in the mercenary city could not feel any mercy on the other side.
It was so heavy that the weapon in his hand dug into the skin of his hand.
The difference in strength is obvious.
Shen Yan knew why the Holy See's army was almost able to unify the entire earth. Behind every soldier in these armies stood a knight wearing heavy armor from the Middle Ages.
It is common knowledge in this world that holy weapons are very rare. Even in the most powerful mercenary group, there are less than one mercenary who wears holy weapons to summon heroic spirits to fight.
But this kind of common sense does not apply to the Holy See's Templar Crusaders. An entire army has the sacred weapon to summon heroic spirits, and this is only a part of the Holy See's army.
On the city wall, the faces of the people in the Mercenary City were extremely gloomy. Perhaps their ancient city today would also fall like those cities in history that disappeared like gravel.
In front of the army, the priest of the Holy See was using a spiritual storm to read out the blasphemous crime of the mercenary city, which caused a lot of curses on the city wall.
But the curses and anger could not stop the Holy See's troops from charging.
It was also at this time that a group of civilians walked up to the wall, which stunned the mercenaries who were preparing for a fight to the death.
I saw those common people suddenly throwing down the papers in their hands, floating like snowflakes in the smoke of war towards the Holy See's army.
"This is……"
"Peace World News."
They are very familiar with the sample issue of World Peace Newspaper, and it has long become a must-read for them.
But where are these civilians?
Some people couldn't help but glance at the article in "World Peace"
Content, the result was immediately stunned.
"Shen Yan ran away, taking the Immortal with him through the underground secret passage of the Mercenary City, bypassing the siege of the Holy See army, and leaving this dangerous place. Even if the Holy See flattened the Mercenary City, the final result would be Return in vain.”
Mercenaries on the city wall: "..."
He glanced at the newspapers and periodicals for a while, and then glanced at Shen Yan who was surrounded by people from the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group and was plotting something there.
Anyway, now was not the time to think about that, they were facing war.
But what is surprising is that the Holy See's army actually became confused, as if some disagreement had occurred.
There are too many newspapers and periodicals scattered under the city. This is the latest issue of newspapers and periodicals published in various cities.
The Mercenary City is so special. Under its city is a well-known dangerous place in the world. There are also brave mercenaries who once explored the secret passages left by the dangerous place. Only the oldest mercenary group in the Mercenary City has their maps of these secret passages. .
Zhao Kuo used to be the heir to the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group, and he most likely saw the secret passage map when he was in the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group. At such a critical moment, it was very possible to tell Shen Yan about it and let him escape with the Immortal. Because of the existence of the network, there was no way to stop Zhao Kuo, who was far away on the second line of defense, from telling Shen Yan how to escape from the mercenary city surrounded by the Holy See.
complex
The existence of secret passages was as dense as a spider's web. No matter how many troops the Holy See sent, they would not be able to stop Shen Yan's escape.
Of course, this would not stop the Holy See's troops from attacking the city.
It was the next content of the "World Peace News" that completely divided them.
"Shen Yan promised that if the Holy See gives up attacking the city of spirits and mercenaries, he will inform the Pope of the key to the giant ruins on the mountain."
"Otherwise, the sky is high enough for birds to fly, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the Holy See will forever lose the news about the whereabouts of Shen Yan and the last immortal in the world."
Some people are confused. What is the key to the ruins of the Immortal?
Didn’t the people from the Holy See come to accuse them and take the opportunity to destroy their mercenary city?
What kind of key can make the Holy See stop attacking the city of elves and mercenaries?
This is impossible, nonsense.
Although they were confused, the higher-ups of the Holy See were very clear and understood their own purpose.
In order to obtain the key, they will do whatever it takes, even if it means risking their lives and reputations, and they will find excuses to attack the Eldar and the mercenary city.
Precisely because the key was so important to them, they could not afford the price of Shen Yan and the Immortal disappearing.
Just because they have seen the end of their faith, that kind of madness makes them impatient to explore slowly.
And Shen Yan made a condition that they could get the key with ease. There was no need to fumble or wait. What they pursued all their lives was right in front of them. As long as they took a step back, they could get it.
The higher-ups of the Holy See are even more convinced that the Immortals may really know where the key is, because they have not revealed their purpose at all. The other party has stopped asking themselves, and they have what the Holy See wants most.
Why did they start the war?
Why are they getting so crazy?
And Shen Yan also made it clear that if the Holy See continues to attack Ling
In the city of clans and mercenaries, they will never find what they want. ()

Moreover, Shen Yan published it in the "World Peace News" and displayed it in front of the world. Was he afraid that the Holy See would verbally agree and then regret it when he got the key he wanted?
Shen Yan was worried about the Holy See even after signing a soul contract. He had to use this method to make the Holy See keep its promise.
The most important thing is that the key the Holy See wants is in the Cursed Land, and the Cursed Land is Abraham's base camp. When the alliance is in trouble, if the Holy See's large forces are led to the Cursed Land, the Alliance can also Take a breath.
On the city wall, people in the Mercenary City were still wondering how the Holy See could give up attacking the Spirit Tribe and the Mercenary City for such a ridiculous reason.
But...the situation outside the city made them dumbfounded.
The Holy See's army was full of chaos. If this was an evenly matched war, they were sure that the Holy See would lose miserably.
Shen Yan was also watching this scene. For others, it may be a very incomprehensible reason, but for the Holy See, by taking one step beyond the restricted area, they will fight against their ultimate belief and a desire that is more important than their lives. Missed.
Shen Yan believed that the Vatican would not worry about Shen Yan lying about the keys. The Vatican had hundreds of ways to identify lies. Once they discovered that Shen Yan was lying, the army would attack again. This would be another battle. There were many reasons that could not stop the army, and Shen Yan did not dare to take the risk.
But the Holy See is also contradictory, just like their current chaotic army.
One is, they have to get that key.
Second, "World Peace News" clearly analyzed their purpose of attacking the city of elves and mercenaries, and put it in front of the world. They knew Shen Yan's purpose and were worried that the Holy See would not keep its promise. This is a weak person. Use your own way to make the stronger party keep its promise.
But if they stop the attack and agree to Shen Yan's conditions, they will admit their true purpose of launching the war. Their lies will be like a joke, and the Holy See will be like a slap in the face.
Shen Yan gave them a difficult choice between the desires in their hearts and the face of the Holy See.
On the city wall, Shen Yan looked at the Holy See's army with a sneer. He was very sure what choice the Holy See would make. They were not even sure about the credibility of the information given by Shen Yan, but even if it was even possible, they were not sure. Maybe let it go.
Because... the people of the Holy See are a group of lunatics. In the face of desire and belief, life and face are nothing. What's more, with the self-confidence of the Holy See, they must feel that they can make up for the loss of face for a while.
Sure enough, the troops under the city quickly regained their discipline. The Holy See's troops were still very disciplined, and the troops even retreated three miles to show that they would not cross the restricted area.
On the city wall, the mercenaries of Mercenary City who were originally prepared to fight to the death were immediately stunned.
I don't know how long it took before he cursed angrily.
There was a lot of curses.
Any blasphemous crime is bullshit. The Holy See attacks them and the Eldar just because of the giant ruins high on the mountain.
There are so many bullshit excuses, but they can't cover up their purpose at this time.
().
Swear loudly (),
?()?『Come to []♂ to see the latest chapter♂complete chapter』(),
Because Xiao Lingchen, the White King of the Spirit Tribe, had been to that ruins, and the Vatican only wanted Xiao Lingchen's human skin. Any demon that would awaken in Xiao Lingchen's body was a fucking hypocritical excuse.
Shen Yan watched as a simple team of a few people in the Holy See's army walked towards the gate of the mercenary city.
Shen Yan sneered. The Holy See finally gave in to their own desires. Even though they knew how they would be ridiculed, they still couldn't wait to collect their exchange terms.
Shen Yan thought to himself, go deal with Abraham.
There was some sadness in his heart. The last thing he wanted to do was to hand over the key, but death in the war was right in front of him. If he didn't compromise, more Eldar would die, as well as those quiet-loving demi-humans in the Emerald Forest. species, and take up the entire mercenary city.
There is indeed no way to resist this invasion of the Holy See. They have the most powerful army in the world, and delaying time is nothing more than a desperate struggle.
However, Shen Yan thought to himself that sometimes, retreating is the best attack.
The day after the mercenary city was besieged, the Holy See army in the Emerald Forest also began to retreat.
In Damon's Sea, there was an uproar, those who couldn't believe it, and those who were stunned.
"The Holy See actually withdrew its troops and agreed to Shen Yan's conditions."
"Their goal is simply the key to the immortal relics."
"What kind of demon is comparable to Bohan, what kind of blasphemous crime, this is simply a war launched by the Holy See for its own purposes."
"Our soldiers are fighting bloody battles on the front line, and they actually... actually..."
Voices spread on the Internet like never before, and then the news flies into reality.
at the same time. The second line of defense, the Zamok Grand Canyon, was filled with overwhelming undead like an incoming ocean.
They roared excitedly, because they had no flesh and blood and could not make human sounds. This was the language of their undead.
"Brothers, compatriots, we are here to liberate you."
"Stay away from disease, death, hunger, stay away from all the deceit and pain in the world, and throw yourself into the arms of our Lord Abraham, and become the dead souls."
"The happy, carefree kingdom of the dead welcomes you."!
