During the time when she left Harbor Town, Ivina experienced confusion and uncertainty, and also encountered many dangers.
Fortunately, her swordsmanship was not weak and was enough to deal with most threats, so she was able to survive. Then she went to the Holy City, worked hard to pass the selection of the God's Punishment Army, and got the opportunity to be reborn and drink the potion of divine grace!
In the past two years, in order to obtain information about Lot, Ivina joined the most dangerous witch-hunting unit in the God's Punishment Army, and witnessed the evil, madness and hysteria of witches with her own eyes!
They possess powerful and strange witchcraft, hide in the dark and conduct unknown research, and are the spreaders of plague and the source of pain...
All kinds of experiences gave Ivina a deeper understanding of the descriptions of wizards in the Bible, and she also developed a new belief, that is, to eliminate the minions of these evil gods and save more people!
Complex thoughts passed through Ivina's mind, but they were quickly interrupted by the vibration from the ground...
This was the feeling of a large number of legions being dispatched, and Ivina immediately became vigilant. Barbarians often attacked the northern border of the empire, and the villages in front of her were likely to be massacred by them.
However, after seeing clearly the flying Holy Emblem flag in the distance, Ivina's heart suddenly relaxed.
What came rushing all the way was none other than the Holy See’s Divine Punishment Legion.
Ivina immediately mounted her horse and led people to greet them, and reported exactly what happened in the village.
"You did a good job, Ivina. You were able to kill the great wizard. It seems that your strength has improved a lot." Gustave, the commander of the God's Punishment Army, looked at the eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl in front of him without hesitation. Words of appreciation.
Ivina is probably the person who has the most perfect integration of the power of the Divine Grace Potion in the past hundreds of years, and her physical fitness is much stronger than the ordinary Divine Punishment Knight.
The only flaw is that his talent for divine arts is sparse and mediocre.
Gustav took out the Bible from his waist, re-edited the chapter about the body-robber in the Sinners chapter, added the word "execute" at the end, and raised the reward to 40,000!
Ivina's face showed a little more joy.
She doesn't care about the amount of money, after all, the salary paid on weekdays is enough for her daily use.
It's just that the increase in bounties means that the families of the deceased Divine Punishment Knights can receive more pensions.
"It's time for us to go back, to the Holy City!" Gustave put the Bible in his arms and looked in the direction of the Holy City.
"But, sir, according to our investigation, the frequent activities of wizards in the northern part of the empire are likely to be related to an evil god..." Ivina said hesitantly.
During the time she joined the witch-hunting force, Ivina had fought against evil gods more than once, and she knew very well how much harm this thing could cause. If it was not removed in time, it would easily kill tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of people. One hundred thousand casualties!
"I understand your concerns very well, Ivina, but we have more important things to do now!" Gustav's expression was very solemn. "Not long ago, I received news that a tragedy occurred within the empire..."
"The group of wizards who were originally hiding overseas raided the kingdom of [Hadrata] in the west of the empire. They used the fight for the crown prince as a bargaining chip to encourage the second prince Hatar to commit patricide, and supported him to become the leader of the empire. The puppet king."
"So now that the entire kingdom has fallen, it has become a paradise for wizards and demons..." Gustav said with a sigh.
Ivina’s face was full of astonishment, and a chill could not help but rise in her heart.
She couldn't imagine how terrifying a country ruled by wizards would be, and how many bloody tragedies would occur!
Ivina once participated in solving an evil god's disaster. Several crazy evil god believers took control of a fortified city in the north, where they carried out large-scale blood sacrifices. Tens of thousands of poor people were slaughtered and turned into the evil god's power. Food for growth.
The horrific scene still surrounds Ivina’s mind.
"Lord Commander, are we going back this time to attack those wizards?" A Divine Punishment Knight quickly asked.
Ivina tightened the thin blade in her hand. In this way, the crisis facing the empire now is indeed more severe than that in the north.
Gustav shook his head. "No, in fact the church has sent two expeditions, and the results..."
"As a result, Saint Lucia died in battle, the presiding judge was captured alive, and all the crusade was destroyed!"
Gustav's voice was very soft, but it sounded like thunder in everyone's ears.
The Divine Punishment Knights present all had their eyes widened, and they couldn't believe what they heard!
Ivina was no exception, her eyes flashed with disbelief.
In the past, no matter what kind of enemies they faced, as long as the church was determined to clean them out, they would surely win.
However, this time the crusade encountered such a disastrous defeat...
She didn't know how powerful Her Majesty the Holy Maiden and the Lord Judge were, but she had seen with her own eyes Gustav, the leader of the God's Punishment Army, taking action.
The terrifying evil god who had absorbed the flesh and blood of tens of thousands of people would be easily killed by Gustav, who possessed the power of a god!
"According to the oracle, the end... has arrived!" Gustav said with a solemn expression.
"Doomsday?!" Ivina whispered softly.
"Not bad!" Gustav nodded, and then explained. "As the Bible says, the sin and endless desires in the hearts of the world will eventually lead to disaster. The more powerful the evil spells mastered by wizards are, the harbinger of the end!"
Doomsday?
After experiencing the initial shock and panic, Ivina and the other Divine Punishment Knights gradually calmed down, their eyes full of determination.
They have already put life and death aside, and no matter what, they must kill those wizards who spread chaos and prevent the end!
"The Pope has a very important task that needs to be entrusted to you!" Gustav looked at Ivina and said suddenly.
"Please give me your orders, Lord Commander!" Ivina responded respectfully.
"You have been stranded in the north. You have only taken the divine grace potion and have not yet undergone the baptism of divine rituals. Those wizards should not be able to confirm your identity, so you are the most suitable candidate." Gustav said slowly He spoke.
"Soon, we will create an opportunity for you to enter the Kingdom of [Hadra Tower] as a wizard..."
"Those kingdoms run by wizards!"
