*****In the conference room on the 24th floor of the Holy Tower, the Papal Palace in the capital of the Theocracy*****
At the same time that Zhang Youji was preparing for the school festival, the perspective shifted to the pope and saint of the Theocracy.
The Pope of the Theocracy, Jocarod Bonnan, and the Saint, Snow Light, are currently on two sides of a long table, discussing the matter of the Overlord and the ancestor of vampires coming to the Theocracy in person. Put it aside, each other was very troubled and discussing related matters.
[You can ignore those small forces that are ready to move. The most threatening ones at present are the paradise forces that are secretly hostile to us, as well as the Overlord, the ancestor of vampires, whose movements and hostility are unknown, and the labyrinth forces of Lord Zhang Youji. Although they are still Even if we maintain a neutral posture, we must be more cautious in our response and try our best not to let Mr. Zhang Youji, who can take the Overlord's first blow, jump to our hostile side. Mr. Pope, this is what we have in common. Bar? 】
[Hmph, that damn brat is fine no matter what. If necessary, let the woman on my side find an opportunity to deal with it directly. She is a witch with the privilege of heresy trial. Even a monster like the Overlord can take advantage of it. Don't be prepared to kill. 】
[Lord Pope, are you too confident? As far as I know, the privilege effect only weakens the ability value of a specific opponent. It is applicable to strong people within the same specification. But for Zhang Youji and the Overlord, even if the ability value is weakened by several levels, it is almost painless. Outside the specifications, the role it can play is limited. Even the mistress of the assassin organization cannot easily kill Master Zhang Youji. Above that, let alone the Overlord, if that woman can really do it. , you have already sent her to deal with the paradise forces. 】
Saint Xueguang, who was sitting directly opposite Pope Joe Carrod, summarized something with a sad expression, and after confirming some consensus with Joe Carrod, she felt sad because Joe Carrod also looked sad, but very unhappy. After willing to reply arrogantly, Xue Guang's answer with a feeling of being fed up made Qiao Carrod click his tongue.
【Tsk! The woman was obviously very confident at the beginning, saying that no matter how powerful she was, she was just a mere summoner. Even if she was a little stronger, it was still different from the summoned beasts under her. If she didn't have much experience, there was no need to be afraid. Killing It was said that it was easy to get rid of him, but now I heard that damn brat, after receiving the first blow from the Overlord, he started to shrink back and quietly said that he had to prepare something again. It was really useless. 】
[If I just retreat and don’t draw a clear line of influence with you, I think you should be very lucky. The person I hired here, after hearing about Lord Zhang Youji, took the blow from the overlord, and that person is far better than The demon king and the terrifying overlord are still secretly operating in this country. After these news, almost all of them left the capital without saying goodbye and left the capital overnight. 】
[Although it is good news for me that your men have less combat power, it is still not worth the trouble of those remnants of the Paradise, the Overlord, the ancestor of vampires, and those abominable monsters, which makes me very upset and tired. 】
[Since you mentioned the issue of combat power, how do you plan to respond to Sir Zhang Youji’s inquiry, the matter concerning the brave man from the Holy Book of Magic, Su Shan, and the other two brave men? There is also a factory for burning demon statues, and the factory used for maintenance has been completely destroyed. The location of the remaining manufacturing factory has probably been leaked. The actions of the paradise forces are becoming more and more superficial and can no longer be hidden. 】
[That damn brat's side, it's not a big deal anyway, just find an excuse to reply. Haven't you found the stronghold of those hateful remnants of the party yet? What on earth are those losers down there doing! 】
When Joe Carrod finished speaking harshly about certain things on his side, Xueguang felt sad and helpless. After briefly chatting with Joe Carrod for a few words, when the issue of the paradise power was brought up, Joe Carlo Rod complained in a harsher tone than before, which made Xue Guang unable to bear it and continued the topic.
[My Lord Pope, it is a pity that there is only information on a few suspected strongholds, and even this kind of suspected information was obtained at the cost of many people's lives. 】
[It doesn’t matter if there’s not much of that kind of waste! The important thing is that the factory has been destroyed, but we can't find the remnants of the paradise! We must not let the losses continue to increase. At this point, I have given up hope of finding the stronghold of the remnants. I might as well take the initiative and instead target the incoming combat power of the remnants! 】
【? ! Please wait, Lord Pope, do you mean this? ! 】
[Yes, if nothing is done, the existing factories and those expensive replicas of the statues will be destroyed by the remnants sooner or later. It is better to follow the wishes of the remnants. Since the paradise remnants want to see the genuine ones Burn the demon statue, then just satisfy those remnants! Prepare a large teleportation magic tool and set it up in the only remaining factory. Like last time, if one prototype idol is at risk, then teleport two! This time I will make the remnants pay the same price as that time when the prototype was maintained by chance! 】
[···, Indeed, if we have been cautiously pursuing the best plan and dare not take the initiative to send out the genuine Demon-Burning God Statue to counterattack, we will only sacrifice the soldiers and the only replica version of the Demon-Burning God Statue that we can use as the main force. If we want to deal with the specifications We must also bear some risks with the forces outside the paradise. Although there are two concerns about the sudden appearance of the Overlord and the ancestor of vampires, I am very uneasy about sending the genuine Demon-Burning God Statue and actively weakening the defense of the capital, but maybe It's time to drag the paradise forces above the water and start a full-scale war. 】
When Xue Guang was very dissatisfied and expressed her thoughts slightly sarcastically, Qiao Carrod smashed the table, shouted something angrily, and after speaking out of control, gave up the idea of playing tricks with the paradise forces, Xue Guang was very surprised and asked what he meant.
As for Xue Guang, after hearing about Joe Carrod, who was almost out of control with anger, but still rational, and his unexpectedly feasible plan, Xue Guang pondered for a while and quickly thought about various things. , expressed her approval.
The reason is very simple. Although the Paradise forces are now enemies of the Theocracy, to be precise, they are only enemies of the Pope. Moreover, the main goal of the Paradise forces is to recapture the pure white girl who was sealed in the Theocracy, regardless of Paradise. Whichever side wins against the Pope Faction, it will not cause fatal losses to Xue Guang and her Saint Faction.
And whether it is a prototype or a replica, almost all of the Demon-Burning God Statues have the combat power of the Papal sect. Therefore, out of consideration of the interests of the current combat power, Xueguang is thinking about the next step in his mind for the convenience of future actions. The course of action of the Saint Faction.
*****Around the Theocracy’s capital? ? ? of? ? ? Among*****
At the same moment, the perspective shifted to the Goblin Emperor of Paradise.
Some of the big figures in the paradise forces, who have been secretly doing various actions in the Theocracy recently, are in a hidden location. Headed by the Goblin Emperor, the Mermaid Princess and the Harpy Queen, they are currently reporting on , some things inside the capital of the Theocracy.
[Not to mention the location of the last factory, I didn’t expect that the Overlord and the ancestor of vampires would appear here. 】
[According to what my fish with a bad head heard from his descendants, the two real disasters were just here to witness our outcome and had no intention of intervening. 】
[How about it? God knows whether those two natural disasters will take any unexpected actions temporarily. 】
When the Goblin Emperor finished expressing his thoughts about what he had just heard, with some headaches, the Mermaid Princess said some additional matters. The Harpy Queen was very unhappy about this and expressed her worries, leaving her brother Emperor Bryn lowered his head and pondered for a while.
[···, no matter what, our battle this time will not change. There is only the lowest combat strength left in the paradise. All our main forces are gathering here. Before that, we must get the last one as soon as possible. The combat power in that factory has been cleared. After all our combat power is combined, we can attack the genuine statues with all our combat power without any worries. 】
[The operation starts tonight. This time it is a ground battle, and it requires high speed. We mermaids cannot move at full speed on the ground, so I will confirm the backup work again, Harpy Queen? What's wrong? 】
【Why? Ugh, this time, I always have a bad feeling. 】
【etc? Are you kidding me? Your wild premonitions are usually very accurate, don't let this last attack come true. 】
When the Goblin Emperor, who had made up his mind after thinking about it, looked at the two people in front of him and said something about combat, the Mermaid Princess was saying something and preparing to leave to do something. After briefly chatting with the Harpy Queen next to her because of her expression, the Goblin Emperor frowned because of the conversation between these two people.
[Indeed, so far, except for the previous one, other attacks have also caused damage, but overall, they may have been too smooth. Mermaid Princess, please tell everyone that the order has been changed. The main target is to eliminate The factory itself, and all the replica idols within its range, were changed to only destroy the factory, while other targets were secondary. In the worst case, it would be okay to retreat directly. 】
【is this okay? After this attack is over, I will prepare for a head-on confrontation with the Theocracy. My hunch is not always accurate. If there are any extra things left, it will have an impact then, right? 】
[It’s okay, there’s no harm in being cautious. It’s better than having some unexpected situation happen this time and causing us, the vanguard, to be annihilated. I don’t want our family members to suffer heavy casualties again. 】
[I understand, let’s go and convey the change of tonight’s goal. After all, compared to strategic goals, the lives of family members are more precious. Queen Harpy, please come too. I’m worried about your bird head. Can you remember the change of instructions? 】
[Mermaid Princess, are you hurting me? I'd love to fight you right now. 】
When the Goblin Emperor cautiously finished making some changes regarding tonight's battle, the Harpy Queen expressed her thoughts with some hesitation, while the Goblin Emperor was thinking about whether to continue to improve some things. While detailing, he recalled the words of the Harpy Queen with a smile.
As for the mermaid princess who listened to the conversation between the two people, because the Goblin Emperor and her family were worried about the power of the paradise, she smiled and after answering the conversation, she took the Harpy Queen and prepared to do troublesome things. , and the Goblin Emperor who was left alone, after watching the two people leave, showed a look full of determination and looked in the direction of the capital of the Theocracy in the distance. At this moment, it gradually entered a chaotic and turbulent situation.
